Chapter 259: Face-to-face detonation
Gordon didn't need to worry this time. A crew member standing near the mast immediately took off the hammer and knocked the trigger of the dragon gun.
The dragon-shooting gun that had been reloaded a long time ago was thrust out with a bang amid the large steam and the sparks caused by the high-speed mechanical friction, spinning towards the Lingshan Dragon's large chin that was full of sarcoma-like protrusions.
Even the thick carapace of the super giant ancient dragon that has been polished by time cannot stop the dragon gun, a super weapon that represents the crystallization of human technology and forging technology.
The alloy spear head covered with barbs penetrated nearly half of Lingshan Dragon's chin and was firmly stuck inside.
Blood spattered, and the roar of pain swept through the sand sea again.
At this time, an inappropriate idea suddenly popped into Gordon's mind.
—These are the extremely precious blood of ancient dragons!
"Heavy crossbow! Fire restraint rounds! Fix the head of Lingshan Dragon, and the hunters are ready to board the dragon again!" the captain of the ship shouted, issuing an instruction that sounded very "reckless".
Maridan, who was not far away from him, reminded her in a low voice, "Although I like this fighting method, will this really not anger the Lingshan Dragon?"
The captain of the ship glared at her and said, "Do you think Lingshan Dragon still needs us to provoke it?"
Maridan looked back at the scarlet eyes of the Lingshan Dragon fixed in front of the bow of the ship, and shrugged, "Okay, it's already very angry."
“The Lingshan Dragon has completely realized the threat of the dragon-attacking boat. It is impossible to make it ignore the dragon-attacking boat. The only way is to make it afraid through further attacks and not dare to approach at will!”
Maridan nodded, "You are right, I will lead people to rush forward now!"
Maridan, who carried the sledgehammer, took two steps forward, then turned back and said, "If something goes wrong, immediately cut off the rope of the restraining bullet and release it. Nothing will happen to the Mineyama Maru."
Having said that, without waiting for the captain of the ship to respond, he raised his voice and roared like a roaring dragon, resounding throughout the ship, "Hunters! Take up your weapons and pickaxes and charge at me!"
“Hooo!!”
The members of the fighting group composed of hunters and city guerrillas raised their weapons one after another.
Gordon and Hayata, whose blood was ignited, were also among them. Under the leadership of Maridan, everyone rushed to the bow and climbed up the huge dragon teeth stuck on both sides of the bow.
The extremely dangerous climbing operation was launched from the head of Lingshan Dragon.
The sand boats cruising nearby also approached one after another and launched a full-scale attack.
"Wait a minute, meow! Wait a minute, meow! Who can help us move the explosive bombs, meow!" Pig Chop struggled to hold up one more anti-dragon explosive bomb, swaying from side to side and ran towards the bow of the ship.
The captain of the ship temporarily handed over the currently useless steering wheel to another crew member, ran over personally, and helped Zhupa move the anti-dragon explosive bomb to the root of the dragon's tooth on the left side of the Lingshan dragon.
“Put it right here!”
“That’s it right here, meow?!”
“Yes! Just leave it to me here.”
The captain of the ship stared at Lingshan Dragon’s eyes, which were very close at hand, “Let him feel the charm of ‘art’ up close with his face!”
at the same time.
The fighting groups who climbed onto the back of the dragon on Lingshan Mountain also started a frenzied attack.
Maridan drank a bottle of forcible medicine and started a whirlwind-like power-charged gyration. The crystal clusters were shattered wherever he went. No one dared to get close. One person took over a large area.
Gordon repeatedly cycles between charged cuts, strong charged cuts, and true charged cuts.
Finally encountered a scene where he could use the high-temperature flames of the Fire Dragon Sword to show off his skills, and he was ready to give it a good chop.
Hayata, who is a sword wielder, and Sesna, who is a dual sword wielder, looked enviously at Maridan in the distance, who was raging like a tornado "hahahaha" everywhere.
Turning around, they gritted their teeth and swung down the pickaxes in their hands, knocking off a medium-sized crystal with a "ding" sound.
Damn it, the sledgehammer is really handsome!
Huh? What was that thing that just fell? It seems to be the Abyss Crystal? Well, never mind!
Maridan breathed heavily and stopped spinning. She pointed at Gordon with a sledgehammer and said, "Here, Gordon will open all the seams for you."
Pork Chop staggered over and ran over, "This is the last explosive bomb against the dragon, meow!"
“Isn’t there three?” Gordon asked as he pushed the anti-dragon bomb deeper into the gap.
“There is another one that the captain of the ship asked me to place on the dragon’s tooth!”
"understood!"
After setting up explosive bombs against the dragon with Gordon, the body of Lingshan Dragon shook violently.
"This is the horn of retreat. Don't be reluctant to fight, leave immediately!" Maridan's roar even drowned out the sound of the horn.
The hunters quickly put away their weapons and jumped off the dragon's back. A few of the hot-blooded guys who had their heads chopped off were also dragged down by their companions.
“Boom!”
The anti-dragon bombs deep in the purple crystal cluster exploded, creating a huge blast crater again.
The Lingshan Dragon struggled violently, trying to shake off the dragon boat "hanging" in front of its head.
“Disconnect the restraint bombs, retract the dragon gun head, and let it go!” the captain of the ship shouted as he ran to the heavy bed crossbow.
Lingshan Dragon shook his head vigorously, and the dragon boat made bursts of crackling sounds. This was the sound of the ship's side planks being crushed by the dragon's teeth.
“Mineyamamaru, hold on.”
As if he heard the prayer of the captain of the ship, the two finally separated. The wooden pieces flew away, and the sides of the Mineyama Maru, which had been stuck by the dragon's teeth, were in a mess.
Fortunately, since the core keel is still well preserved, Mineyama Maru can still continue sailing and fighting.
“Try this.”
At the moment when the two separated, the captain of the ship pulled the trigger of the heavy crossbow, and the crossbow bullet was directed at the anti-dragon explosive bomb that he simply fixed at the root of the dragon's tooth with a rope.
“Boom!”
Huge fireballs and gunpowder smoke shrouded the Lingshan Dragon's head, and the brutal roar swept through the ship together with the blast wind.
"Did it succeed?" Gordon, who had re-boarded the dragon boat along the safety rope, hurried over.
The "success" he refers to is of course not "killing", but "repelling".
“Hard to say.”
The captain's face was solemn, "If it were the Fengshan Dragon from previous years, it would have retreated by now, but this is the Lingshan Dragon that is larger and has stronger vitality."
"Roar!!"
The Lingshan Dragon's body stood tall and erect, its huge teeth seemed to be able to poke the bright moon in the sky. It became more ferocious and louder, and its roar resounded through the sand sea, and even Lockakla, who was more than ten kilometers away, could hear it.
“The rudder is full! It’s going to come down!” the captain turned around and yelled at the crew member who took over the steering wheel from him.
The crew turned the steering wheel frantically until it was completely stuck.
However, the dragon-attacking ship, which had lost speed in the previous entanglement, was obviously too late to sail out of the range of the Lingshan dragon.
A huge shadow like a mountain collapsing shrouded down, and it was about to crush Mineyama Maru.
“哐——”
The piercing sound of the giant gong rose into the sky. Lingshan Long was shaken violently, twitching and fell to the side. The sand sea rolled, and the rising sand waves and air wall pushed Fengshan Maru several dozen meters later.
The crew on the deck who had no time to react rolled into a ball.
Fortunately, the crisis has been resolved.
“Hahaha, I still have to rely on my mother at the critical moment!” Maridan, who was carrying a sledgehammer and a head of messy hair stained with yellow sand, laughed heroically.
