Monster Hunt: Notes From a Hunter

Chapter 458 Steel Hammer and Important Town

Unlike most monsters' collision-type attacks, they can only burst out at high speed in a short period of time.

The Explosive Dragon's roll can last for a very long time, and they even use this method to move long distances.

It was too risky to carry the Explosive Hammer Dragon in circles all the time. In such a hot environment, Amber's physical strength would decline faster, so he had to find a way to force it to stop.

"It's a pity that the pork chop didn't come, otherwise the explosion would have stopped long ago." Anhil looked back at the high-speed rolling "steel wheel" behind him and couldn't help but grind his teeth.

In response to this kind of rolling impact, senior hunters have also summed up ways to deal with it. The most common and best one is to use explosive bombs to force a stop.

Set explosive bombs on the path in front of the Explosive Hammer Dragon. The shock wave detonated by the bombs can easily destroy the Explosive Hammer Dragon's balance and force it to fall.

But this time, considering that the big barrel explosive bombs were too loud and might attract other large monsters, and the transportation was inconvenient, we were not prepared.

Another way is to use the terrain, such as inducing it to hit a wall or something. Ancil's eyes scanned the surroundings.

The blazing red light in the distance lit up his eyes. It was a wide lava lake.

What does it mean to hit a mountain wall? Lure it into rushing into the lava!

Although the Blaster Dragon has excellent resistance to high temperatures and flames, it is not a sea of ​​fire dragon like Yan Ge Dragon that can swim in lava.

If he really fell into the lava lake, he probably wouldn't be directly scalded to death, but he would still have to peel off his skin.

"Amber! Go there, rush towards the lava lake, and then turn sharply when you are about to hit the lava. It can't turn as fast as you!" Anhil ordered Amber loudly.

"Woof!"

Amber changed direction and headed straight for the lava lake in the distance.

While rolling at high speed, the visually affected Explosive Hammer Dragon followed closely behind, and they were getting closer and closer to the lava lake.

"It's just a little bit close, it's a little bit close, it's a sharp turn!"

"Roar!"

Amber roared, leaning his whole body.

Anhil, on the dog's back, clung to the saddle, his body almost touching the ground. The nail hooks equipped on the dog's claws dug up the ground. They didn't even rush out two or three meters before they completed a sharp turn at an almost right angle.

The Explosive Hammer Dragon finally realized the danger.

It hurriedly relaxed its body and released its rolling posture, but the huge inertia carried by its heavy body weighing hundreds of tons was not easy to eliminate.

It stumbled and almost fell into the lava lake. Fortunately, at the last moment, it grabbed the ground with its chin like a sledgehammer, kicked the lava with its thick hind legs, and crawled out again.

"roar--!"

Stomping its feet and flicking its tail, the Explosive Hammer Dragon shook off the lava-covered body and let out a roar. The sound could be heard clearly from kilometers away.

"Tsk, it's a pity, it's a little worse."

Anhir patted Amber's neck and jumped off its back.

At least the blaster dragon was stopped.

Maintaining the rolling state is not difficult for the Explosive Hammer Dragon, but the process of curling up the body seems to be very energy-consuming. This guy should not roll around again in a short time.

Ancil unfolded the crystal rifle, preparing to give the blaster dragon a cold bath with water-cooled bullets.

But at this moment, the lava lake behind the Explosive Hammer Dragon suddenly boiled.

Hot waves of magma washed up on the shore.

A "rock island" in the center of the lava lake swayed and rose higher, finally revealing its true form.

It was a giant rock-gray flying dragon.

The thick volcanic rock carapace covering its entire body makes it look like a mountain, a rocky mountain with legs and wings.

Thousand-degree lava slid from the gaps in its carapace, and the air above the lava lake, which was already blurred by the high heat, suddenly became more distorted.

"Ouch, ouch, ouch—!"

It spread its wings wide and howled angrily at the blaster dragon on the shore. The latter's previous roar awakened it from its slumber.

In its view, this was a provocation by the fat man with the big chin against itself!

"Stop attacking."

A ghostly dark figure fell next to Ancil. It was Hilda who had not been seen since the battle began.

"By chance, the object of Grabimos' (Armor Dragon) anger is the Boomerosaurus. We may be able to take advantage of this and not disturb them. It's best for them to fight for territory."

Feng Ying finally ran near the lava. She took a deep breath, almost not being scalded by the hot air, and quickly slowed down her breathing.

Just as she was about to say something, she saw the armored dragon straighten its upper body, fully displaying its huge body that was no less long than the blaster dragon, and the visual effect of its wings was two circles larger.

"Wow! So big!"

"Huhu, it is indeed the type with the largest size and weight among the conventional flying dragon species." Hilda looked up at the armored dragon standing upright in the lava lake and couldn't help but sigh.

"Routine?" Anhil noticed a certain detail in Hilda's words.

If I remember correctly, according to ecological books, the armored dragon is the largest flying dragon species.

But he doesn't think that what is recorded in the book is necessarily correct. For example, the concept of "ancient dragon" is never mentioned in books that are open to the public and available for purchase.

Hilda didn't mean to answer Ancil's words, but glanced left and right, and then pointed to a huge rock not far away. You two, go and hide there.

A fight with a monster of this size would be affected if you were not careful.

An Xil nodded and dragged Feng Ying, who was still saying "Wow" over there, to hide behind the giant rock.

Except for a few exceptions, most large monsters are violent and arrogant. As long as their ecological niches are not too different, it is natural for them to fight each other when they collide.

The moment their eyes met, the battle had already begun.

So, the Explosive Hammer Dragon temporarily threw the hunters' threats behind his head, opened his wide mouth, and roared in response.

The battle was about to break out.

The armored dragon raised its neck, and bright flames were gathering in the dragon's mouth wrapped in rocks.

"Hide! It's a breath!" Hilda, who was watching the battle from a distance, was no longer calm. She reminded Anshil and the others loudly, and at the same time ran and hid behind another rock.

After a short period of charging, the armored dragon opened its mouth and aimed at the target Explosive Hammer Dragon, and breathed out a flame column composed of ignited high-pressure explosive gas, bombarding the opponent.

The Explosive Hammer Dragon seemed to know about this attack method and was quite afraid of it. Before the breath came, it took heavy steps and ran.

The armored dragon would not let the former go so easily. It slowly swung its head, and a powerful flame column swept across the explosive hammer dragon.

The explosive hammer dragon tried to lower its body, and the flame column swept across its back. In just two or three seconds, those golden alloy prisms became red hot and softened, showing signs of melting.

The breath did not last long.

These special gases stored in the body are byproducts of the special bacteria in the stomach and intestines that decompose volcanic rocks, and are also the most important trump card of the armored dragon.

Unless it is a life-and-death moment, the gas will not be exhausted at once.

The explosive hammer dragon stood up panting, roaring, and used its only long-range attack method.

I saw its body turn around, swinging its thick long tail, and a few round and inconspicuous, rock-like things were thrown by it onto the armored dragon standing in the lava.

The next second, a violent explosion and black smoke filled with pungent sulfur smell enveloped the armored dragon.

"Roar, ah, ah!!!"
