Chapter 1072 Explode! Just Explode!
In the Grand Canyon, a relatively narrow pass has now become a busy construction site.
The super-large explosive trap that has gathered almost all the manpower and material resources of the investigation team is set here.
A huge pit of several thousand cubic meters was dug in the center of the pass. The diameter of the pit is not too large, about thirty meters, at least not too large compared to the size of the Molten Mountain Dragon.
But this pit is dug very deep, and thousands of explosive barrels are neatly filled in it. If they are placed in the Star Base and detonated, I am afraid that the entire base will be razed to the ground in an instant.
And this is just the basis of the explosive trap.
In order to enhance the lethality of the explosion, the craftsmen of the investigation team also filled all the artillery shells in stock into the pit.
This is the same as the fine shrapnel in the shotgun, but these shrapnel are a little bigger.
In addition, several alchemists headed by the alchemist grandmother are still trying their best to add more ingredients to this trap.
Zhuchop handed them the formula of high-density dragon-killing carbon.
Fire dragon bone marrow and dragon-slaying fruit are easy to deal with, as there is no shortage of hunters who can kill fire dragons in the Star Stronghold, but there is nowhere to get the explosive hammer dragon bone marrow and gunpowder rock, which are also one of the core materials.
There are explosive hammer dragons distributed in the far north of the continent, but the journey is too far and there is not enough time.
Fortunately, the alchemist grandmother is a real alchemist master.
In terms of reconciliation and alchemy technology alone, the pig chop who has been called an "explosion expert" is far inferior to these professionals.
Under her leadership, the alchemists racked their brains to find other materials with similar properties as substitutes, and finally they really made it for them.
The low-profile high-density dragon-killing carbon made with the above-grade explosive dragon fish as auxiliary materials is not as powerful and stable as the original version, but fortunately the materials are relatively easy to obtain.
So the alchemists began to work overtime again. If the quality is slightly inferior, then make up for the quantity. If the stability is slightly poor, it doesn't matter. This thing is not used to make shells, just be careful not to blow it up.
Anyway, Pig Chop followed Gordon and the others and came to the construction site by airship. After asking the alchemist about the number of explosive bombs and dragon-killing carbon in the trap pit, the whole cat was blown up like a ball of hair.
He ran to find Rania and asked her to take the security personnel to guard the pit day and night. Anyone who dared to approach with an open flame would be hung up and beaten.
If there was an accidental explosion, the New World Investigation Team would be gone.
For more than a week, Pig Chop didn't sleep well.
It was not until the past two days that the bomb pit that continued to expand and enriched was finally filled with soil and sealed, and it was relieved a little.
At least there was no need to worry about someone lighting a pipe and everyone going to heaven together.
"It's meow, the alchemist who lifted the restrictions is too scary meow."
After the Molten Mountain Dragon smashed the mountain barrier and entered the Grand Canyon, the hunters' actions became more and more difficult.
There are two main sources of trouble.
The acid pterosaurs that inhabit the Grand Canyon hovered over the Molten Dragon in groups.
These hungry and greedy carnivorous pterosaurs are extremely aggressive and their numbers are far greater than those in the Great Anthill Wasteland.
In order to ensure the smooth operation of the swordsmen carrying the barrels of explosives, Gordon and his team had to transfer more shooters from the Star Base to serve as guards and cover the operation.
The second trouble is the temperature.
The continuous destruction of the heat dissipation organs and the interference with the heat dissipation have a significant effect. A large amount of waste heat cannot be discharged in time, causing the Molten Dragon's body temperature to rise higher and higher.
Even if the hunters act at night, they must take cold drinks, but this can only guarantee no hindrance for a short period of time. If the effect of the cold drink is over, staying a little longer will cause skin burns and even burns to the respiratory tract.
This temperature is already comparable to the core area of the Tirion Volcano, the Lava Canyon.
The operation is difficult, but the morale of the hunters is getting higher and higher.
It's hot!
This requires us to work hard for more than half a month, and the Molten Dragon has no reaction or change at all. That's when we should doubt whether the action is effective.
The hunters, with their morale boosted, attacked frantically day and night.
Until today, as the last batch of attack teams set up explosive bombs and left in the roar of the Molten Dragon, the operation to destroy the heat dissipation organ was finally declared over.
Next, the final stage of the Molten Dragon capture operation will begin.
On the ridges on both sides of the canyon, the hunters responsible for reconnaissance hid there, and quietly monitored the Molten Dragon's every move in groups of several hundred meters.
At this time, the Molten Dragon was less than ten kilometers away from the location where the explosive bomb pit was set, and the hunters' attack had ended.
Except for a few observers, all personnel evacuated outside the canyon, and the Molten Dragon must be given enough time to calm down and slowly walk towards the trap.
This is very critical.
After all, with the size of the Molten Dragon, any slightly larger movement would cause a big movement of landslides and cracks.
As long as it stands up and then lies down, it will be a violent earthquake in a small area.
The bomb barrels and unstable version of the Dragon Killer Carbon buried shallowly underground cannot withstand such vibrations and are likely to be detonated in advance.
Then all the efforts made by the investigation team before would be in vain, and it would be impossible to set up a new trap in a short time.
Therefore, whether the Molten Dragon can step on the trap calmly, steadily, and smoothly will be the top priority of this operation.
There is really not much the hunters can do about this.
Fortunately, the Molten Dragon is passive enough. As long as no one interferes with it, it will always look like it doesn't care about anything, and move forward slowly step by step.
The observers wearing invisible clothes are lurking quietly.
The dark red molten dragon, with magma gushing out from the cracks in its rock shell, walked past them.
The high temperature distorted the air around it, making its figure blurry, and a series of dark red molten footprints were left on the ground it stepped on.
Even the group of acid pterosaurs hovering around it did not dare to get too close.
Gene, who was secretly observing, muttered in a low voice, "I wouldn't be surprised if this big guy exploded on the spot in the next second.
Damn, can't it feel the heat itself?"
Aiden, who was standing by, laughed dryly and agreed, "Yeah, if it hadn't been blown up, it would have been difficult for us to climb back later. I'm afraid we can't hold on for a few minutes even if we guzzle cold drinks."
"A tough guy like me is not afraid of heat! At worst, I can put on heat-resistant clothes and go for it!" Gene said as he drank a bottle of cold drink. "Speaking of which, let's prepare for unexpected situations. What unexpected situations can there be?"
"Who knows?" Aiden shrugged, "Fortunately, the Nergigante had a fight with the Molten Dragon in advance. I heard from Senior Gordon that he was seriously injured. Otherwise, it would be troublesome if he came to make trouble at this time."
"Hehehe, isn't it said that the guy has a super regenerative ability? Maybe he has recovered and is rushing to get back at him?" Gene said with a strange smile.
Aiden's face froze, "Please don't make such jokes at this time, it will really get you into trouble."
"Ha! You still believe in these things?"
Jin was laughing when a thunderous roar came from the distant sky.
The two looked at each other.
"F**k! I told you to talk too much!" The good-tempered Aiden couldn't help but swear.
Jin, whose face was also a little green, opened his invisible clothes, jumped up, grabbed the red flare symbolizing an emergency, and fired it.
"The others are nearby and will be here soon. Let's go first and stop it!"
