Chapter 791 Even if We Join Forces, It Won’t Be Easy
When Hayata arrived at the scene, she saw Gordon slashing the Black Flame King to the ground, then swinging the [Red Wing] greatsword and charging at the latter's head and neck.
Pork Chop aimed at the Black Flame King's wing membrane, and a pair of steel claw blades were swung out by it, leaving afterimages, and the strange "meow meow meow" sounded a bit scary.
Hayata's steps paused, and for a moment, she doubted the necessity of pressing the airship pilot's neck and forcing him to drive at full speed to come to the rescue.
Why doesn't it look like she is in urgent need of support?
But anyway, she came here, and after a short pause, Hayata also launched a charge.
She quickly came to the side of the fallen Black Flame King, swung the blade to cut the tough wing membrane between the wing bones. When dealing with large monsters that are good at flying, destroying the wings first is always the right option.
Gordon naturally noticed Hayata's arrival, but there was no time to say hello at this time.
Strong charging slash, strong sweeping slash, high-speed charging slash and other sword moves with extremely short preparation time were used one after another, and one sword after another fell on the vital parts of the head and neck of the Black Flame King.
The reason why he did not use the real charging slash, which was more powerful and took longer to prepare, was because he knew that the Black Flame King fell to the ground not because of how serious the injury was, but because he was caught off guard and was stunned.
When it recovered, the speed of getting up would be scary, and the subsequent reaction would be terrifying.
As he expected, the Black Flame King, whose head was covered with blood, suddenly opened his eyes.
Golden flames flowed from the corners of its mouth, and the red light from the scars all over its body became brighter and more conspicuous.
"Retreat! Find cover!" Gordon put away his weapon without thinking, and shouted a reminder while retreating quickly.
Hayata also noticed the changes in the Black Flame King's physical condition. Of course, she would not make such a low-level mistake as greedy for the sword, and she also put away her weapon at the first time.
Although she was not sure why Gordon emphasized the need to find cover, it was right to do so at this time. Hayata aimed at a large maple tree not far away that could be hugged by several people, and ran towards it.
With thicker bones and more obvious muscle lines than ordinary male fire dragons, the Black Flame King pushed the ground with his wings and stood up again.
It roared wildly and took a deep breath. The next second, three dazzling golden fireballs blasted out of its mouth and shot in the direction where the hunters were evacuating.
Hayata rolled and hid behind the tree, leaning against the trunk, leaning her head sideways, and watching the Black Flame King's movements vigilantly.
When she confirmed that the landing point of the fireballs was still some distance away from Gordon or her hiding place, she breathed a sigh of relief.
Continuous fireball breath can be regarded as the signature method of the Fire Dragon Clan. It has a short preparation time, fast trajectory speed, and quite impressive power.
However, the attack range is not large, so there is generally no big problem as long as it is not directly hit.
Just thinking this, the three golden fireballs fell to the ground, and then a light so bright that it was blinding burst out.
"Boom boom boom--!"
The fireball exploded, and the golden flames spread to the surroundings along with the shock wave of the explosion.
Perhaps because of the fuel contained in the breath, these golden flames fluttered and burned in the air for a long time, forming three vortexes of flames with a diameter of more than ten meters, covering a large area in front of the Black Flame King.
"Meow!"
Xianglan screamed, and a wisp of flames floated to its tail, "Teng!" and burned.
Hayata hurriedly helped it extinguish the flames, then hugged it and tried to curl up, using the giant tree behind him to avoid the scattered flames.
No wonder the hunter camp was burned like that, and no wonder Gordon emphasized the need to find a shelter.
Although Mr. Isa had long emphasized that the dragon flame of the Black Flame King was extraordinary, it was not until now that she clearly realized why a male fire dragon was named "Flame King".
After nearly ten seconds, the spreading golden flames finally extinguished and dissipated. Hayata drank a bottle of recovery medicine and flew away from the tree where she was hiding.
The big maple tree, which was originally lush and leafy, with fiery red leaves like a huge torch, has been completely ignited, forming a real torch.
Perhaps it will not be long before it turns into a twisted charcoal.
Even though she has tried her best to shrink and avoid it, there are still a lot of sparks and flames falling on her.
The flame resistance of the Black Eclipse Dragon's armor is not good. The purple-black armor leaves are covered with charred and burned marks, especially the shoulders without armor, which have several obvious burns.
Xianglan, who was held in her arms before, was not injured except that her tail was burned bald. At this time, she was chasing after her, waving life dust.
Gordon also ran out from behind a rock, and his situation was better than Hayata's.
When the dragon energy was active, the resistance of [He Yao]'s various attributes was quite good, and the little flowing flames could not break through the defense of the Sky Comet Dragon's shell.
"Are you okay?!" Gordon shouted as he rushed towards the Black Flame King again.
"It's okay!" Hayata answered simply.
Gordon nodded his chin, and now he had no time to ask about his well-being, "Attack from both sides, I'll attack from the front and you from the side!"
"Understood!"
Hayata's pace suddenly accelerated, and he rushed to the side of the Black Flame King.
This high-speed approach naturally attracted the attention of the Black Flame King immediately, and its eyes locked on Hayata, and its sight followed.
Hayata, who entered the attack range, took the lead in launching an attack, and drew his sword to slash two consecutive blows at the wings of the Black Flame King.
She aimed at the relatively soft wing membrane, but the Black Flame King slightly adjusted the angle of his wings and faced the blade with his hard wing bones and claws.
An embarrassing scene occurred, and the sword in Hayata's hand was bounced away by the wing claws.
Hayata frowned and rolled on the ground urgently to avoid the bite of the Black Flame King and fight back.
The original mission target of this hunt was the two dragon-slashing dragons, so she specifically chose the water-attributed sword, the Nanman sword [Same Slash], which was not usually used.
The blue sword was enough to deal with the dragon-slashing dragon, and the excellent water attribute made this sword a sharp weapon for hunting dragons.
But when the opponent was the Black Flame King, this weapon seemed a bit awkward.
The Black Flame King did not like water, but the water attribute could not be called its weak attribute.
The sharpness of the blue blade was barely enough. It was okay to cut the weak parts of the Black Flame King's head and wing membrane, but once it clashed with the hard parts such as the dragon claws and wing bones, it was very easy to bounce.
In this way, it seemed impossible to attack by force. The only way was to refine the sword energy through flexible guerrilla warfare, and then try to use the air blade to break the Black Flame King's defense.
Having made up his mind, Hayata decisively adjusted his tactics, stood up and rushed forward with the inertia of rolling, and wandered around the target.
Gordon took advantage of the opportunity when the Black Flame King's attention was temporarily on Hayata, and cut in from the blind spot of the Black Flame King's sight, approaching the head and neck.
In the fights of the past few days, he tried to attack various parts of the Black Flame King's body. There were not many parts that could be called weak. In addition to the head, only the carapace of the tail was relatively weak.
For him as the main vanguard, the head was naturally the best choice.
Gordon carried the big sword and prepared to draw the sword and charge it at high speed.
The Black Flame King, who noticed Gordon approaching, learned from his previous lesson and did not foolishly turn his head. Instead, he flapped his wings again and leaped back to distance himself.
"Tsk."
Gordon gritted his teeth and stopped charging, trying to charge and catch up, but faced with the fireball, he had to stop.
