Chapter 71 Give it a shot!
In terms of weapons, Ted uses a heavy weapon called a "gun gun".
This strange weapon is between a "gun" and a "fire gun". It is quite similar to a spear in form. They are both long weapons used with large shields.
But unlike long guns that simply pursue stabbing power, gun guns have explosive modules hidden in the body, which can bombard monsters at close range, thus causing considerable damage.
At first, this weapon was classified as a type of spear, until the principle was imitated by the flying dragon's breath, and the core mechanism called "Dragon Cannon" was developed.
The so-called Dragon Cannon is, in short, a powerful bombardment device. Its single-shot damage capability is only comparable to the charged sword's charged slash. However, it takes a long time to cool down after use.
The heavy and huge blunderbuss body, the powerful recoil, and the rather complex attack methods make the blunderbuss have extremely high requirements on the user's physical fitness and combat skills.
Ted is undoubtedly an excellent gunslinger.
Countless successful hunting experiences are the best proof, and the flamboyant blunderbuss on his back is a further footnote for him.
The blunderbuss mouth formed by four sharp claws looks full of intimidation. The blunderbuss body and shield use a large number of blue and yellow scales and carapace. Judging from the size of the scales, the material of this blunderbuss must come from some kind of large-scale Flying dragon.
Noticing Gordon looking at his weapons, Ted laughed loudly and said triumphantly: "Aha! Brother Gordon, you are very discerning!
This pair of 'Booming Guns' is made of the materials of 'Diga Rex (Booming Dragon)'. It's really a ferocious big guy. Have you seen the scar on my face? Hehe, that's it. That guy left it behind.
A little, just a little bit, our head was caught in two by it. Of course, the final winner is me! Clam clam clam! "
“Is it actually the Hong Long who is called the ‘absolutely strong man’?” Even in the face of Ted’s showing off, Gordon did not hide his yearning and envy at all.
That's a roaring dragon! Not inferior to the male fire dragon at all, and even worse than the ferocious flying dragon species!
"If you have a chance later, I'll let you listen to her roar, but don't be shocked!" Ted raised his chin proudly, and his scarred bald head reflected the shiny light in the sun.
“Don’t wait a while!”
Gordon looked around.
Suddenly, having discovered something, he pointed to a slow-moving figure on the beach in the distance, and encouraged with excitement: "Shield crab! There is a shield crab there! Brother Ted, why don't we go and have a blast with it?" ?”
Although he was almost thirty years old, Ted still looked like a young man out of character. Seeing that Gordon had found a target for him, Ted immediately took steps forward excitedly.
“Go, go, go! Don’t let it get away!”
Gordon immediately followed with a strange smile. Sometimes a man's happiness is so simple.
Two heavily armed men, whose weapons and equipment were probably over two hundred kilograms, giggled "hehehe" all the way and ran wildly on the beach, leaving two sets of footprints half a palm deep.
Wandering in the tide, shield crabs filtered and fed on the seaweed and plankton brought by the tide on the beach. They noticed the vibrations on the ground and the strange noises coming from the distance, and raised their heads warily.
This is a giant crab, or hermit crab, that is nearly as tall as a person.
Its body is dark red, and it carries a large skull on its back like a shield. Judging from the shape, it should belong to a herbivorous dragon called "Ankylosaurus" - this kind of special habit of carrying the skull of large animals to protect its soft abdomen. This is also the origin of the name "Shield Crab".
As a symbol of crabs, the giant crab claws are as sharp as scissors, and they are moving in a menacing "click-click" manner, which looks quite intimidating.
Gordon and the others will not be scared so easily.
“The Dragon Cannon is coming!”
As Ted roared, the muzzle of the cannon was condensed with fire.
The shield crab, which was still a little unresponsive, raised its pincers high in the air, and as soon as it got ready to attack, a loud roar like a ferocious beast exploded in the explosion that swept everything.
“Boom, boom, boom.”
The red-hot heat dissipation rod popped out of the blunderbuss, making a soft "hissing" sound.
As the smoke gradually dissipated in the sea breeze, the mutilated body of the shield crab was revealed to the hunters—most of the dark red body disappeared, and the remaining body was covered with traces of charring and explosions.
Even the huge shield-like armored dragon skull behind it was thrown to the beach more than ten meters away by the aftermath of the dragon cannon, emitting green smoke.
“Wow! Awesome!” After being stunned for a few seconds, Gordon suddenly raised his arms and cheered loudly.
Tad placed the cooling blunderbuss and shield on the beach, put his hands on his hips and raised his head to the sky with a loud laugh, "Hey, brother Gordon, this is the power of the dragon cannon!"
The two of them laughed and yelled like crazy for a while, and then they remembered that they hadn't stripped it yet.
Looking at the corpse that had almost turned into charcoal, the smiles of the two people froze on their faces.
"Well, if it's used to deal with small monsters like shield crabs, the power of the Dragon Cannon is a bit too much." Gordon felt that he must have been influenced by the bad-minded Ted, why did he become so stupid? of.
“Well, maybe.” Ted had the same idea.
“Speaking of which, it looks like this. Is it still possible to collect crab roe?”
“It can’t be done, it’s probably all burnt”
“It’s a bit of a waste, should we take it easy next time?”
"Um"
If it were in the past, completing mission requirements would definitely be the top priority.
But this time, Gordon and Ted put the hunting of shield crabs and collecting the best crab roe to the end of their schedule, and they confidently found an excuse for this behavior of touching fish species.
Euphemistically called it: “This is to prepare the freshest crab roe for customers!”
At this time, Ted, who was addicted to fishing, was squatting at a fishing spot on a reef, holding a fishing rod in his hand, waiting for the fish swimming nimbly in the clear water to take the bait.
Gordon watched for a few minutes and then became too lazy to look any further.
This old man's fishing skills are really a bit fashionable. His oily bald head is so close to the water. There are probably more than ten earthworms tied to the hook at once, and they are as messy as an octopus. I don't know what. Only species of stupid fish will take the bait.
“Brother Ted, let me go around and see if there are any other good things.” Gordon, who was not very interested in grilled fish, said hello and prepared to go around by himself.
Ted didn't even look back, waving his hand to let him go and play as he pleased.
Gordon didn't go too far, mainly because he had just set off from the camp and followed Ted to this fishing spot. He noticed several mineral veins and skeleton collection points.
In order to make the blasting knife and the refined ore set, he has almost consumed the ore materials. Now that he has the opportunity, he naturally needs to replenish his inventory.
