Chapter 885 Raging Fury

(Attached are some pictures of the battle street to facilitate understanding of some descriptions)

When the giant halberd dragon staggered and fell, several long and short horn flute sounds came from the top of the stepped city wall.

The sound of the horn flute was sharp, piercing the roar of artillery fire, and could be heard throughout the entire battle street.

This was an order to collectively use restraint bombs.

The hunters responsible for operating the heavy bed crossbows stopped their attacks, loaded the restraint bombs made of pure steel and connected to solid steel cables onto the crossbow bed, and quickly pulled the crossbow strings with the winch.

"Beep!"

Another piercing flute sounded.

After receiving the signal, dozens of heavy bed crossbows on the three stepped city walls were fired at the same time. With the sound of "swooshing" breaking the wind, restraint bombs with hideous barbs were shot at the giant halberd dragon raging in the battle street.

Gordon had never seen so many restraint bombs fired at the same time.

When blocking the Lingshan dragon in the sand sea, the dragon-striking ship only used two sets of restraint bombs to firmly fix the hull to the side of the Lingshan dragon.

In the defense of the old mountain dragon in the old fort of Minagard, four restraint bombs controlled the old mountain dragon for a long time.

Of course, it was also related to the insufficient number of heavy crossbows in the dragon-striking boats and the old fort.

But no matter what, the tactic of commanding the heavy crossbows to fire restraint bombs only when the giant halberd dragon was lying prone, and the tactic of firing dozens of heavy crossbows at the same time was really cautious enough.

The commander was the master? No wonder, the master always liked to play it safe.

The restraint bombs hit the armpits and limbs of the giant halberd dragon one after another. From the landing points, it can be seen that the shooters who operated the heavy crossbows were experienced or had received targeted training.

The muscles in these parts are thicker, which can facilitate the barbs of the restraint bombs to be stuck, and at the same time it is not conducive to the giant halberd dragon to exert force and it is not easy to break free.

This wave of offensive, whether it is the timing of firing, the number of restraint bombs, or the positions locked by the shooters, are all perfect.

Even if the old mountain dragon is here, it is inevitable that it will be firmly locked on the ground and unable to move for a long time.

However, in fact, the effect of this round of restraint bomb volleys was not as good as expected.

The thick dragon bone oil flowing on the giant horn dragon's body and those sharp metal objects played a very good blocking and buffering role.

Most of the restraint bombs did not penetrate deep enough, and even nearly half of the restraint bomb crossbow arrows failed to penetrate the giant horn dragon's body. As soon as it moved, they fell down.

In the end, only four or five steel cables were successfully fixed, and they were not evenly distributed. This made the giant horn dragon, although it was tied in place, still have half of its body able to move.

It struggled frantically.

Under normal circumstances, large creatures would not be so violent in their struggle to break free after being hit by restraint bombs.

After all, the crossbow arrows with huge barbs were stuck in the flesh. If they were forced to break free, it would easily tear off a large piece of skin and flesh.

But this was not a problem for the giant horn dragon, which was still able to move freely with a dragon-slaying spear piercing its chest and a small part of its internal organs blown to pieces.

Compared with the injury and pain, the chaotic-minded giant halberd dragon could not bear the feeling of being restrained.

"Gah, ah, ah!" It roared wildly.

The only four or five remaining steel cables were instantly tightened, making a clanging sound under the heavy load.

As it swung violently, the heavy crossbow connected to one of the steel cables was pulled out along with the pin buried deep underground.

The upper hunters who were about to take the opportunity to launch a strong attack retreated immediately.

In the state of crazy struggle, the movements of the giant halberd dragon were unpredictable, and even more dangerous than when it was moving freely. The steel cables that could break at any time could cut them in half.

Standing on a high place, overlooking the entire battlefield, Cambe (Master) frowned.

The tactic of firing restraint bullets failed. Not only did it fail to control the giant halberd dragon, but it might force the giant halberd dragon to shift its attention to the turret and crossbow too early.

This won't work.

Holding back the tightness in his chest from the violent cough, he said to the messenger beside him: "Signal the hunters to retreat and fire the dragon-killing cannon!"

"Beep!"

As the warning horn sounded, the upper-level hunters surrounding the giant halberd dragon retreated faster.

Amid the mechanical roar, the dragon-killing cannon that had just completed reloading slowly turned the muzzle, preparing for the second shot.

Although the giant halberd dragon was crazy, it was not a completely unintelligent beast. The previous dragon-killing cannon left a very deep impression on it.

When the muzzle was pointed at it, the strong sense of crisis drove it to bend its limbs and wing claws and jump sideways with all its strength.

Driven by the amazingly powerful muscle strength, the remaining few steel cables were also broken one after another, or the crossbow arrows and flesh were pulled out of its body together.

Due to the involvement of these steel cables, the giant halberd dragon's jump was not successful. With this jump, it forcibly broke free from the restraints, but it also fell to the ground because of losing balance.

But this was a successful dodge.

The Dragon Slayer roared, and the Dragon Slayer carbon shells wrapped with high-intensity dragon attribute energy passed by the giant halberd dragon and fell on the ground dozens of meters away.

The golden explosion rose into a mushroom cloud.

The earth was shaking, and a huge crater appeared on the repeatedly compacted ground of the battle square. The remaining scattered dragon attribute energy turned into tiny red arcs, crackling and jumping in the crater.

The shock wave of the explosion flipped the fallen giant halberd dragon over, and its body flowing with black oil was covered with gravel and dust, making it look particularly embarrassed.

But compared to being hit directly by the Dragon Slayer Cannon, this situation is much better.

At this time, Campbell was no longer as docile as usual. As soon as he noticed that the shell had rubbed the body of the giant halberd dragon and shot into the air, he shouted hoarsely:

"Retreat! Everyone near the dragon slayer, retreat!"

Although he could not see the situation of the giant halberd dragon in the square clearly from the top of the wall due to the smoke of the explosion, he knew that the latter's counterattack would come soon.

The engineers responsible for operating the dragon slayer rushed out of the gun cabin and ran wildly. The guild knights guarding Campbell could not care so much and carried him and ran.

Sure enough, after just a few seconds, the hot dragon breath broke through the barrier of smoke and dust, covering the dragon slayer cannon and the complex huge gun mount.

"Boom boom!"

The sound of the black oil explosion was endless.

The giant halberd dragon's breath lasted for a very long time. After more than ten seconds, the dragon flames slowly stopped.

The expensive gun barrel burned fiercely in the oil flames, and it also cost a lot of manpower and material resources. The gun mount made of high-strength alloy gradually became red hot and cracked.

Although the dragon-killing cannon covered in flames seemed to be fine overall, anyone with a little engineering knowledge would know that this most advanced giant cannon in the entire continent has been completely scrapped.

There is no point in repairing it. Even if you want to dismantle it and remelt it, it will become difficult because of the dragon bone oil sticking on it.

The only thing to be thankful for is that the ammunition depot storing the dragon-killing carbon shells is buried very deep underground and there is no sympathetic explosion. Otherwise, even this stepped city wall may collapse on a large scale.

After burning the dragon-killing cannon, the giant halberd dragon turned around and turned its attention to the turrets and heavy crossbows on the surrounding city walls.

Due to the lack of pain, even though the continuous attacks of these city defense weapons caused a lot of damage to it, the giant halberd dragon never realized this, and even did not notice their existence.

It just felt that the high-ranking hunters jumping around in front of it were more annoying, so it never attacked the city wall.

However, the restraint of the restraint bullet caught its attention and completely angered it.

Like an overloaded boiler, the blazing light symbolizing high temperature shone from its broken chest, and the amazing heat radiated to the surroundings. Even the black grease covering its body melted under this high temperature and flowed all over the ground.

"Roar Gaga Gaga--!"

Amidst the frantic roar, the giant halberd dragon jumped up and rushed towards the seemingly indestructible stepped city walls.
