Chapter 1032 Awakening! .jpg
The hunters, who had filled their stomachs, lay down early to rest and spent a peaceful, even too quiet night.
There was no such thing as falling asleep in the wilderness and being awakened by the howling of animals in the distance from time to time. Even the chirping of insects that could be heard everywhere was drowned out by the not-so-intense wind.
Everything was too quiet. Pig Chop, who was squatting at the entrance of the cave to keep watch, had to count the fluff on his paws to pass the time.
The hunters were able to sleep well all night.
For this reason, they got up very early. At two or three in the morning, when there were still several hours before dawn, they had already sorted out and checked their equipment and left the small cave where they were camping.
The guide insects didn't seem to have woken up. Gordon patted the guide insect cage, and they began to lead the way a little slowly.
As for why they got up so early, on the one hand, it was because seven or eight hours of sleep was enough for them to recover their physical strength and spirit. Sleeping more would make them sleepy.
The more important reason is that the Explosive Scale Dragon should have found a place to rest at this time. If they chased it now, they might find a chance to get close to it.
The northern mountains under the night were desolate and deserted. The speculation last night made the hunters more vigilant.
They moved forward under the cover of the mountain.
Finally, before dawn, they found the figure of the Explosive Scale Dragon in a valley.
It was curled up at the bottom of the valley and sleeping. Its wide wings could not be folded completely, so it had to stretch out and lie on the ground.
The silver-gray body was covered with dried blood, but the wounds were no longer bleeding, and it was obvious that it had recovered a lot.
The hunters exchanged glances and approached cautiously.
The first knife to wake it up was naturally made by Gordon, the greatsword user. In fact, it was also good to let Ansil use Supernova to start this battle.
But considering that the belly and tail of the Explosive Scale Dragon were curled up under its body, the supernova might not be able to easily detonate these annoying scales, so it was better to save the remaining precious ammunition for a more critical moment.
Gordon and Hayata drew their swords and slowly approached from the front and side respectively. The two shooters also found a suitable shooting position on the hillside, loaded the crossbows and locked the target.
Gordon came to the head of the Explosive Scale Dragon lightly, without hesitation, and poured the potion into his mouth as quickly as possible, and then pulled down the visor.
The moment the visor was pulled down, the essence of the Panic and Furious Tyrannosaurus Rex hidden in the [Greed] suit was completely released, and the greedy malice that devoured everything rose up.
Subconsciously, everyone's eyes were focused here.
It felt like a raging beast came to you with a wild howl, and its big mouth full of sharp teeth enveloped you, and you seemed to smell the pungent smell of blood at the tip of your nose.
Even though their reason and eyes told them that it was their companion standing there, and that it was just an illusion brought by the armor, they still couldn't help but feel frightened at that moment.
"Wow, I have goosebumps." Gale muttered as he moved his finger outside the trigger circle, "Neh, it almost went off."
Ansel, who heard this not far away, looked at her speechlessly, not knowing what to complain about.
The dark muscle armor squirmed slightly, squeezing the hunter wrapped in it.
Gordon had the illusion that he was swallowed into the mouth of the angry Tyrannosaurus and was being swallowed down the esophagus.
If it were an inexperienced novice, he might scream in panic at this time, and his bones would be broken by the uncontrollable force.
But he had long been accustomed to the "nature" of this set of equipment, firmly holding on to his own reason, calmly enjoying the power blessing brought by [Greed], and at the same time abandoning the influence of that madness on his thinking.
He even planned to use that madness to a certain extent to maximize the effect of the beast soul possession.
If nothing unexpected happens, this will be his "strongest sword" since he became a hunter.
However, something unexpected happened
The Explosive Scale Dragon seemed to be always on guard against something, and was not sleeping deeply.
After the dangerous aura that was almost the same as that of the living Tyrannosaurus Rex burst out, it opened its eyes immediately.
With a low roar, supporting its body with its wing claws, the Explosive Scale Dragon tried to struggle to get up.
"Tsk." Gordon was shocked.
He had expected that the Explosive Scale Dragon might be awakened by the completely unrestricted [Greed], but he wanted to take a gamble that the latter would sleep deeply after a fierce battle and a whole day of flying.
Unfortunately, he didn't win the gamble.
The companions had already started to attack.
But the Explosive Scale Dragon stood up against their attacks. It was obviously too late to use the beast soul possession at this time. Gordon simply carried the inscription sword and entered the charging posture.
Although the power of this sword could not be called "strongest" without the blessing of the beast soul possession, the current situation was obviously not suitable for continuing to inflict damage.
An attack that can hit the target is meaningful.
Gordon took a big step forward, carrying a big sword, almost touching the face of the Exploding Scale Dragon.
The Exploding Scale Dragon, which had just stood up, was about to roar intimidatingly, but the opponent was almost in its mouth, so it subconsciously opened its mouth and bit back.
This is what I've been waiting for!
Gordon stepped back half a step to avoid being directly caught in the mouth of the Exploding Scale Dragon, and at the same time swung down the big sword to meet the short but powerful jaw of the Exploding Scale Dragon.
The big sword was bounced off by the dragon's teeth, and the powerful force that was enough to break the spine of an ordinary person was transmitted back along the sword body and the hilt. Gordon, who had already tightened his muscles and was ready, used this force to instantly complete the accumulation of power.
A real power-accumulated slash!
Gordon roared and swung his sword back, but missed. The Explosive Scale Dragon, which was a little weak, was slashed on the side of its face by this sword.
Its scales, flesh, and even bones were broken in an instant. The powerful force that could not be resolved made it stagger violently and it was about to fall.
Hayata retracted her moves and flashed to the side of the Explosive Scale Dragon. She stabbed the Explosive Scale Dragon that was leaning towards her, and then jumped up by inertia.
The air blade condensed, and the golden blade with a dazzling red light slashed down.
The next second, a large amount of blood splashed out from the Explosive Scale Dragon's fat neck covered with glands, almost completely dyeing her clothes red.
"Roar, ah-ah--!" The painful howl of the Explosive Scale Dragon tore through the night.
The instantaneous explosive power of heavy swords is not comparable to long-range weapons such as crossbows.
The two consecutive sword strikes almost drove the Explosive Scale Dragon crazy with pain, but its survival instinct told it that if it fell at this time, the consequences might be very serious.
It supported its body with its wing claws, then swung its long tail and hit back at the hunter.
The long tail, which was also covered with explosive glands and explosive scales, was like a heavy sorghum, bloated and flaccid.
Such an attack would not pose any threat to experienced upper-level hunters, but those explosive scales that were swung with the tail swing had to be on guard.
The explosive scale fell to the ground, and immediately emitted a red light from the inside out after being hit.
The swordsmen who were afraid of the explosive power of the explosive scale had to stop attacking and retreated.
The Explosive Scale Dragon took the opportunity to flap its wings and prepared to take off.
"It won't be too late this time, meow!" The pig chop, who had already set up the insect cage that stopped the insect, immediately emitted a strong light.
The Explosive Scale Dragon, which had just left the ground not far away, was temporarily blinded by the flash, but its excellent flying ability and natural sense of balance prevented it from falling instantly.
Instead, at the last moment, he spread his wings flat, glided, and dived to a certain place for an emergency landing.
Looking at the Explosive Scale Dragon that was swooping down with "bombs" all over his body, Gale cursed, put away his weapon, and ran away.
"Why the hell is it me!"
