Chapter 1497 Forced Landing
Relying on the overload engine, Isana forcibly escaped the swallowing attack of the swallow dragon, and after pulling away from the swallow dragon by nearly a thousand meters, she turned off the overload mode.
Amid the strange sound of "clang clang", a cloud of black smoke came out of the engine on the left and it completely stopped.
The engine on the right was still able to operate normally, but under the unbalanced thrust, Isana had to constantly adjust the hull posture to prevent the airship from circling in place.
The swallow dragon howled and chased after it.
Its movements seemed slow, but that was only relative to its size.
In anger, the swallow dragon flying at full speed was even a little faster than the Isana with the help of a single engine.
Now no one dared to mention slowing down and bringing the swallow dragon a little closer.
If the earth dragons had not replaced the Isana with a new engine, the speed of this airship might not be faster than the swallow dragon.
"Wait until it enters the effective range of the rapid-fire gun, and then fire freely!" Gordon piled several drums of ammunition next to the rapid-fire gun and issued such an order.
"Understood!"
It is certain that the supernova can penetrate into the body of the Swallowing Abyss Dragon with the airflow of the suction attack, and it is estimated that it can cause great damage.
"The attack is ineffective!" Musa said excitedly: "Replace the bullets slowly! You continue to attack!"
"Boom!" With a loud bang, the left engine exploded again, pushing the Isana back a distance before completely stopping.
"Isana! Maintain the highest speed. We will inevitably have to slow down when we land. If we don't ensure a safe distance, we will be shot down when we land!"
On the contrary, the Swallowing Abyss Dragon speeded up the pursuit in order to retreat and suck the attack, and the distance between the two widened a little.
Yue Zhen, who was trying to stabilize his body, had such an idea inexplicably popped into his mind.
Shaking his hands that were numb from the front recoil, Musa suddenly reacted.
"The hunt is over!"
"Toot!"
Another sharp whistle.
--You'd rather die in the monster's mouth than in the crash of the airship. Isn't that too embarrassing?
The heavy crossbows located in various places on the battlefield fired free bullets at the same time.
"Boom!" A violent explosion sounded.
When it was less than 70 meters away from the ground, Yue Zhenjie pulled the steering wheel with all his strength, the flaps on both sides of the hull opened, the hull suddenly lifted down, and the speed of ascent and descent dropped sharply.
Isana's cheers turned into screams, "Ahhh! Your Yue Zhenjie!"
But it didn't have the concept of "trap" in its mind.
I grabbed a carefully obtained heavy crossbow from under the deck beside me.
Before the hull could stop completely, everyone under the ship rushed to jump up from under the deck.
If it was caught by the airflow of the swallowing dragon's attack again, the Isana, whose engine was scrapped and malfunctioned, could not escape.
Two hundred meters, one hundred and seventy meters, one hundred meters
The supernova obtained from the pork chop flew out of the barrel, and was carried by the airflow, flying towards the nearby Swallowing Dragon at an extraordinary speed.
The crossbow arrow, which was thicker than a spear, penetrated the Swallowing Dragon's flank and the joints of the roots of its seven limbs.
A sharp horn sounded.
A faint white smoke came out of the only remaining push-back engine.
The explosives buried on both sides of the canyon pass were detonated, and the rock wall collapsed, blocking the entrance and exit of the canyon.
At the last moment, Isana gritted her teeth and activated the overload again.
The belly of the "little whale" rubbed violently against the ground, and gravel, wood chips, and sparks flew everywhere, plowing a long gully under the ground, but finally there was a roll.
Isana, who was concentrating on operating the airship to maintain balance, had no time to reply, but from the fact that she pushed the power of the remaining right engine to the top, it can be seen that she listened.
Hayata was holding Xianglan in her hand, while Gordon was holding Isana who was cheering quietly. We didn't care about anything else and ran desperately towards the nearby place.
The cannon at the top of the canyon slid under the rail and came to the most suitable position, with the muzzle facing up and locked on the target.
Put Isana on the ground, and comfort you when you have time, and let you go to the dangerous place quickly, Gordon shouted:
One second after landing, Yue Zhenjie finally barely leveled off, maintaining the forced landing posture with the bow slightly tilted down.
As soon as it landed, it smashed the red little whale into pieces.
The shooters operated the rapid-fire cannon and desperately poured shells into the mouth of the Swallowing Abyss Dragon.
The forced landing was successful!
I just urged the four-star junior master hunter, "Brave" Gordon, to change the magazine for me? That's something I can brag about for half my life!
The Isana took this opportunity to open up some distance again, and the canyon decisive battlefield, which was our destination, was also in sight.
After just two or three minutes, the distance between it and the Isana retreated into the ineffective range of the rapid-fire gun.
"Everyone hold on! Prepare for an emergency landing!" Isana shouted, pushing the steering wheel backwards.
The Isana seemed to be pulled by an invisible rope, and its speed dropped significantly.
After all, it is the "ferocious god of the dry sea".
Unfortunately, the distance is too far. The supernova exploded into a small ball of fire a few dozen meters in front of the Swallowing Dragon.
But the Swallowing Dragon ignored our attack, raised its body slightly, and the strong wind surged again.
Gordon grinned, but did not draw his sword as before.
"Understood!"
"Clang clang!"
The airship tilted upward at a sharp retreat angle that would definitely appear in the normal landing process, and dived towards the center of the canyon.
The distance between the two was getting shorter and shorter, and they were about to retreat into the range of the swallowing dragon's sucking attack.
After aiming slightly, he pulled the trigger of the heavy crossbow hard.
The two shooters fired without hesitation.
The swallowing dragon was startled by the fire and the explosion, and the sucking attack was interrupted.
With its size and take-off angle, it was very easy to leave the closed canyon.
After the overload just now and several minutes of full-power flight, the engine also stopped malfunctioning, and the speed of the Isana dropped slightly.
"Take over!" The shooter Leihana who was operating the rapid-fire cannon released the trigger and gave the shooting position to Hayata.
Just a few seconds ago, the swallowing dragon fell from the sky like a falling mountain and smashed under the Yue Zhenjie.
Man! Dad has made progress!
As if noticing that, the swallowing dragon chasing in front of the Isana roared and flapped its fins violently.
"Boom!"
"The battle is over!"
The ship shook violently, and the shooters stopped firing. Gordon also threw the ammunition box in his arms aside and held the railing beside him with all his strength to stabilize his body.
The carapace there was obviously thinner and stronger than the back, and the eyes, mouth and nose and other vital parts were also concentrated there.
It was not good at slow flight, but it was furious, so it might as well try its best.
The speed of the Swallowing Dragon was still increasing.
Gordon said, "clang" unloaded the empty drum, picked up the new drum with one hand, and hung it down the ammunition bay.
"Boom!"
The ground was getting closer and closer.
It hadn't opened its huge mouth yet.
It was overloaded, but it was not enough. The Isana shook off the turbulence and successfully escaped from the range of the Swallowing Dragon's sucking attack.
Facing the attack of the rapid-fire cannon, the Swallowing Dragon had to turn its head and use its shovel-like giant chin to block the shells.
A series of shells continued to bombard the head of the Devouring Abyss Dragon.
The archers rushed out from their hiding places and came to their respective gun positions.
The capstan turned slowly, and the ropes tightened, binding it firmly in place.
It realized that it was right.
The Devouring Abyss Dragon, venting its anger under the wreckage of the Isana, turned its head sharply.
