Chapter 1148 Reduction of Personnel
This is a silver-white cave.
Not only is it covered with the iconic crystal pillars of the Dragon Crystal Land, but even the rocky ground is covered with thick layers of crystal material.
The top center piece is translucent, and the sunlight from the outside world is faintly visible.
The sunlight and the pure white light emitted by the crystals reflect each other, making the cave transparent.
Gordon, who led the team to this place, stared at the mysterious ancient dragon hovering on the top of the cave, and felt fortunate in his heart.
This group of caves, called "the land of convergence" by Mr. Mecca, is not only full of energy, but also extremely large in area, and can even accommodate the mysterious ancient dragon with a wingspan of nearly 70 meters to fly freely.
Here is the hotbed created by the mother clan for it, the nest for its growth, and its secret palace.
It is also a cage that binds it.
If there were no hunters, after a period of growth, it could easily break through the shackles of this cage and fly to the vast world outside.
But at least now, it was imprisoned, and the width of the narrow part of the earth vein corridor was not enough for it to pass.
It had nowhere to escape.
The mysterious ancient dragon, which had been hovering above the cave for a while, realized this and roared, swooping down from the air.
The giant ancient dragon weighing thousands of tons swooped down, and there was no way to defend against this force.
The hunters ran at full speed and scattered to avoid it. If they were hit and compacted by it, they would only end up being crushed into a pancake.
"Rumble rumble--!"
It may be that it had just emerged from the cocoon and was not good at flying, or it may be because of the serious injuries, the posture of the mysterious ancient dragon landing was a little embarrassed.
The thick crystal layer on the ground was shoveled away by it.
But the hunters were not in the mood to laugh at it at this time, and reorganizing the formation was the first priority.
Gordon, Feng Ying, and Ted took the lead in launching a charge. They planned to entangle the front claws of the mysterious ancient dragon and tie it up in place as before.
The mysterious ancient dragon seemed to be aware of their intentions.
After awakening from a serious injury, its ability to control the energy in its body has improved by more than one level compared to when it just woke up. It reacted very quickly.
Even the speed of its limbs has obviously increased a lot.
It vibrated its wings to gain momentum and quickly retreated a few steps. With its size, it retreated a distance of thirty or forty meters at once.
The hunters had to grit their teeth and continue to chase.
But the mysterious ancient dragon had already opened its huge mouth, and several balls of energy that were still not solid enough but had basically formed were fan-shaped and covered the hunters.
The hunters immediately pounced and rolled to dodge, and even Ted did not dare to be careless.
The breath bomb was bigger than his whole body. Even if he put up a shield to block it, he would most likely be blown away.
"Cover!" Ansel shouted.
The scattered archers picked up their crossbows and fired. Due to the long distance, the power of other types of crossbows was too severely attenuated, so most of them chose the penetrating bullets with the longest effective range.
Due to its huge size and weak surface defense, the attack effect of the penetrating bullet was better than expected.
For the mysterious ancient dragon, these conical crossbow bullets fell on its body like needles. It might not hurt the root, but it really hurt.
What's more, there were seven light and heavy crossbow shooters around it, and most of them were aimed at its head.
The mysterious ancient dragon, who was crazy with pain, subconsciously raised his body to avoid the crossbow shooting, and opened his huge mouth, and the light column composed of energy torrents was shot at the hunters from a high position.
"Dodge!!!"
The recoil of the energy breath was very strong. In the state of four legs lying on the ground, the mysterious ancient dragon could still maintain a stable spraying posture.
But in this squatting posture, the mysterious ancient dragon, which was difficult to borrow force, could not control the direction of the energy breath at all. Its slender neck was like a hose without support, swinging uncontrollably.
For hunters, this chaotic and unpredictable attack was far more dangerous than normal sweeping.
What was even more terrifying was that the ground covered with crystals melted red hot under the sweep of the energy torrent, leaving a path of lava several meters wide, further limiting the space for the hunters to dodge.
If the breath irradiates an area for a little longer, it will also cause a heat flow explosion.
As a member of the heavy crossbow team and the youngest member of this operation, Nora was unable to dodge and was blown away by a ball of exploding lava.
"Woo wow!"
Ignoring the severe pain of falling to the ground, she rolled quickly and avoided the subsequent breath beam.
But her luck was too bad. Before she could stand firm after turning over, the energy beam that had just swept past turned and swept back.
At this time, all she could do was to do her best to fall in the direction away from the breath, and then pray that her death would not be too ugly.
"Shrink up!"
She heard a roar.
Feng Ying pulled the Kinsect to leap in front of her, smashed the big shield, and countless insect silk flew out to help fix the shield.
She gritted her teeth and used her shoulder to hold the shield. Although she activated the full-charge defense, to be honest, she had no confidence in blocking the energy breath.
Just before the breath came, another figure as wide as a city wall came in, carrying a huge shield in front of the two of them, facing the breath.
He was enveloped by the blinding light.
"Brother Ted!!"
The beam of light swept past, focusing in front of him for only a short second or two, but many parts of his armor still turned red under the irradiation of this amazing energy, and the large shield in front of him was even more golden and red, and half of it was melted.
The energy breath that had been continuously shooting for more than ten seconds finally stopped.
Because there were far more than one or two people injured by the aftermath of the breath, Ted was the only hunter hit by the breath.
But he still gritted his teeth and held on, and uttered a sentence from his lion-head-shaped mask, ". Damn, it burned me to death, but it still doesn't hurt!"
"Don't be so stubborn, meow!" Xianglan rushed over, threw the recovery honey bug she caught from somewhere at Ted, and then inserted a healing chimney.
A large ball of honeydew sprinkled on Ted's red-hot armor, sizzling. At this time, it might be more important to cool down the armor than to heal the wound.
If he continued to wear this red-hot armor, it might not take long for the person inside to be cooked.
Noticing the situation here, Osura and Gale quickly switched to recovery bullets and shot at Ted.
Feng Ying and Nora also hurriedly took out the water bag and recovery medicine, and poured them all on Ted, finally lowering the temperature of the armor.
Ted barely supported his body with the gun, and Xianglan stuffed a secret medicine into his mouth, "Severe burns, must withdraw from the battle."
Zhu Chop, who ran over, noticed that blood was constantly oozing from Nora's mouth and nose, and his internal organs were probably seriously injured.
"This side is not suitable for continuing to fight, meow, we have to call two people to help them out meow."
Feng Ying wanted to support Ted, but he pushed her away.
He bared his teeth at Feng Ying, "No, I can still walk, you are the only one with a shield, go back quickly."
"I can walk too! Cough." Nora said as she spat out blood and wiped her mouth quickly.
". Not very convincing meow."
Nora did not respond to Zhu Chop's words, but supported Ted, and the two limped out of the cave.
Feng Ying took a deep breath and looked back at the center of the battlefield.
Gordon, Hayata, and Maka were attacking hard, trying to entangle the mysterious ancient dragon.
The mysterious ancient dragon, realizing that the move just now was very useful, stood up again, and the dazzling energy light gathered in its mouth again.
Ps.
In the game, when you stand up and shoot this move, you will sink into the ground after the attack ends, so I won’t force it to be reproduced here.
