Chapter 222 Pheromone Concentration
Although it has only been a few months since he was officially promoted to five-star level, Julius is already considered the best among five-star hunters in terms of technology and equipment level.
Just being under the heavy beetle, withstanding the continuous attacks of the hammer-like legs and round-moon tail pincers, and turning around calmly like a walk makes even the petite Pork Chop feel inferior.
Not to mention that he can always accurately seize the short gaps between monster attacks and launch swift counterattacks.
Looks thrilling, but never makes a mistake.
This has nothing to do with luck, but with real skills and strength.
Swinging his two swords, and leaving several staggered wounds on the soft belly of the heavy beetle again, Julius quickly retreated, avoiding the former's foot attack.
The lightning attribute damage from the execution saw is not very effective against the heavy beetle, but the high-speed rotating saw blade still causes it severe pain.
It hissed, exerted force on its hind limbs, and slammed its heavy body forward, but was once again dodged by the dual-sword wielder with a sliding movement.
The heavy beetle became angry. It raised its body and opened special glands in its abdomen.
Julius, who had seen it once before, knew clearly that the heavy beetle was planning to release pheromones and forcefully summon the beetle, so he rushed forward to try to interrupt.
Unfortunately, it was too late. The foul-smelling gas spurted out, blowing the dual-sword user away, and at the same time, the pheromones spread rapidly.
On the other side, Gordon, who was chasing the beetle slasher, noticed that the former's movements suddenly stopped, and he immediately understood what happened.
Come again? !
He cursed secretly in his heart, took half a step back, and started preparing to charge up his power to slash.
Under the continuous fire of fire bombs, the charging speed of the Thor Beetle, whose wings were seriously damaged, was not as fast as the previous one. When it passed in front of Gordon, the three-stage charged slash was released just in time.
Explosive Knife Kai tore through the air and slashed hard at the beetle's side, opening a horrific wound that could almost see its internal organs.
The Beetle's body shook violently and almost fell out of the air.
However, the effect of the pheromones made it ignore the pain. After adjusting its flying attitude, it continued to fly straight towards the heavy beetle.
Reluctantly, Gordon put away his sword for the second time and ran after the beetle.
His liver ached when he thought that he might have to experience the same thing two or three times again.
Nadia was still shooting, trying to shoot down the Thor Beetle before it reached the Heavy Beetle.
But this guy looked seriously injured, but he just managed to fly to the side of the heavy beetle, and was about to land on the heavy beetle to complete the combination.
Just when the hunters were having a headache, Pig Chop, who had been wandering around the monster but had never been able to find any chance, jumped out.
A small flash bomb was thrown in front of the heavy beetle.
Strong light blooms.
The sudden light deprived the heavy beetle of its vision. This unprecedented experience made it panic, dizzy and swaying, making it difficult to connect with the beetle that had lost its thinking ability.
“Beautiful! Pork chop!”
Gordon cheered and quickened his pace again.
He chased until he tried to land on the heavy beetle, but because of the latter's dizziness, he fell behind the beetle on the ground and began to prepare for the real charged attack.
Julius also activated his ghost-human transformation, ran over at full speed, and used a super-speed ghost-man dance at the somewhat stupid Toru Beetle.
The fragile cephalothorax of the beetle was chopped up messily by Julius's execution saw. The golden electric current was introduced into its body along the blade, continuously destroying its muscles and nerves, further stiffening its movements.
What really had the final say was Gordon's True Charged Slash.
Carrying the power that Gordon had accumulated to the limit, the steel blade fell heavily and directly cut open the scarred soft abdomen of the beetle.
Messy internal organs and dark green body fluids were flowing all over the place.
The third one!
It was not until the beetle was completely dead that the heavy beetle was finally freed from the blinding effect caused by the flash bomb.
It naturally doesn’t feel sad or anything like that, it just feels extremely angry.
The relatively simple thinking of the beetle-like creature made it very stubborn. After screaming at the hunters for a while, it began to release pheromone gas again to summon the beetle.
The hunters did not disturb it as usual. Gordon even secretly took out the whetstone and sharpened the knife.
However, a few seconds later, Julius noticed something unusual.
Did this guy release too much stinky pheromones this time?
“Something’s wrong.”
Julius muttered something to himself, then suddenly raised his voice and shouted: "Nadia! Cut it off!"
“Bang! Bang! Bang!”
Three fire bombs roared in one after another, accurately hitting the glands where the beetle releases odor. The explosive flames made the heavy beetle scream.
But it was too late.
A sharp buzzing sound sounded in the distance, and it was approaching here at an extremely fast speed.
That was a beetle sprinting with all its might and flying at full speed.
Gordon and Nadia tried to intercept, but were unable to do so. Judging from the dull but crazy action pattern of this beetle, it can be seen that it has completely fallen into the control of the heavy beetle.
Hunters finally knew why the heavy beetle released pheromones for an extra long time this time.
Whether a beetle is “attracted” or “controlled” seems to be determined by the concentration of pheromones in the air.
The long-term release of pheromone gases directly increases the pheromone concentration in the nearby area to a "controllable" level.
Therefore, as soon as this beetle came nearby, it immediately rushed towards it like crazy.
Pork Chop threw a flash bomb again, trying to prevent the fusion of the Thor Beetle and the Heavy Beetle.
However, I don’t know if the heavy beetle was prepared, or if it was simply lucky. The small shield-like legs that grew near its face, and were used to protect the vital parts of the head and face, happened to close up and block the strong light.
The Thor Beetle was somewhat affected, and the landing position was a little off. The Heavy Beetle clamped it with its round-moon tail pincers and pressed it **** its back.
The two complete the combination.
“Tsk, it’s troublesome.”
Gordon looked at Julius, "Can I do that back-rubbing move again? Can I lead them to the slope?"
Julius pursed his lips, "No, the beetle was seriously injured before, so I was able to use the terrain to swing my back and kill it.
This Thor Beetle is almost in its prime state, and the Heavy Beetle is on guard again, so that move is useless. "
"Then I can only leave it to Miss Sagittarius to grind it slowly." Gordon said helplessly.
The piercing beetle lying on the back of the heavy beetle was too high, and he and Julius had nothing to do with the latter.
“Well, let’s draw the attention of the heavy beetle and create a shooting opportunity for Nadia.”
The two swordsmen separated again and flanked their opponent from different directions.
Nadia also started running. Sports shooting is her strength. Although the standing output is comfortable, it is too dangerous in front of the heavy beetle with water cannon breath.
Facing the three people and one cat who were moving separately, the heavy beetle hesitated for a moment, and finally settled on the one with the largest body and the brightest "carapace".
Looking at the heavy beetle charging at them fiercely, Gordon cursed.
“Why is it me again?”
