Chapter 129: Dragon Slaying (Please Collect and Recommend)
Perhaps blinded by hatred, Kangola did not dodge the crossbows, but rushed towards the tower with a dragon chariot. The skin of the dragon is very tough, and ordinary crossbows are basically useless against them. Only the crossbows of the giant crossbow chariots can penetrate their skin, but the lethality is still limited.
Kangola was hit by several arrows, but he was fine, and he continued to rush towards King Uther.
Boom!
Kangola crashed into the tower, and the huge impact threw several knights off the tower. King Uther was also directly knocked away by this huge impact. Before King Uther could get up, the dragon clung to the outer wall of the tower, and its huge head stretched towards King Uther.
"Roar!!!"
A scorching dragon breath sprayed towards King Uther. Just when the dragon breath was about to burn King Uther to ashes, several royal guards who were protecting King Uther rushed to King Uther with large shields. This did save King Uther. The shield separated the dragon's breath, preventing King Uther from being hurt by it. But it also took the lives of the loyal guards. The shield's defense was not enough to protect them from being hurt by the dragon's breath.
The dragon's breath passed quickly, only a few seconds, but these few seconds were enough to burn the guards into charcoal.
King Uther had no time to feel sad about the sacrifice of the guards. At the moment when the guards fell, he stood up with a long sword in his hand and stabbed the dragon's eye socket fiercely. → King Uther's movements were not like those of a fifty-year-old man. On the contrary, he was extremely agile. Although the dragon reacted, it was still stabbed in the cheek by King Uther.
The long sword made of dragon bones opened a 30-centimeter gash under the dragon's eye. The scorching dragon blood sprayed all over King Uther's face like free tap water. The high temperature of the dragon blood made King Uther's skin red, but King Uther didn't care. Instead, he drew his long sword and planned to hit the dragon again.
But Kangola was not a real beast. He had a brain. After discovering that King Uther had a dragon-slaying weapon in his hand, Kangola immediately opened his wings and flew up. King Uther was also pushed away by the airflow brought by the dragon's flight.
The dragon rushed into the sky. He didn't run away, but planned to change a strategy. He had sobered up from the rage just now. He was a dragon, not a beast. It was obviously not an advantage to rush up and fight with humans recklessly like just now. Although he was strong and seemed to have a great advantage in melee, in fact, King Uther was not without counterattack means. At least the dragon-slaying weapons in their hands caused no less damage to the dragon.
The sword that King Uther had just given him was enough to make him feel good. Although the wound was not big for the huge body of the dragon, the problem was that the wound would not heal in a short time, on the contrary, it would continue to bleed. If there were more such wounds on the body, even the dragon would not be able to bear it. → If the wound was in a vital part, it would be even worse.
So the melee combat that seemed to have all the advantages was actually very risky. On the contrary, if the dragon was pulled away, the dragon's advantage would be quite obvious. Don't forget that he can fly!
Flying is amazing.
Kangola flew into the sky and disappeared in the night sky, but everyone was on guard without any slackness. They looked for the dragon everywhere, but found nothing. There were only bursts of dragon roars in the night sky, but no trace of the dragon could be seen.
Under a bright moon, the dragon spread its wings and broke through the sea of clouds. Everything on the ground seemed to be under the shadow of the dragon's wings.
"Ready!!!"
Under the organization of the knights, the soldiers lit the arrows of the crossbows and waited for the dragon to approach and shoot. As if it was an agreement, when the soldiers prepared their crossbows, the dragon swooped down from the top of the city, with a mighty momentum that covered the sky and the sun, and shrouded everyone's heart like a haze.
"Shoot!"
With an order, countless burning crossbow arrows shot at the dragon.
Kangola looked at these toys and didn't care at all. He saw that his wings, which had been folded up for the dive, suddenly spread to the maximum, which made the dive speed suddenly drop sharply, as if hovering in the air.
The arrows shot by the crossbowmen were calculated in advance, and the distance between the arrows and the dragon was calculated. But Kangola suddenly slowed down, causing the advance amount to fail, and all the arrows missed.
When all the arrows missed, Kangola flapped his wings again and continued to dive towards the top of the city!
"Roar!!!!"
When Kangola passed over the top of the city, a breath of dragon followed. The soldiers either hid under the battlements to resist the dragon's breath, or were burned to charcoal by the dragon's breath.
After a breath of dragon breath, Kangola drew a big arc in the air again, dived from another direction, and ravaged the defenders on the city wall like a bomber.
Fortunately, at this time, the dragon hunting crossbow was ready again. However, this time, the three dragon hunting crossbows did not shoot at the same time, because the dragon's mobility was too strong, and it was very likely that the dragon would dodge if they shot at the same time.
So this time, the three dragon hunting crossbows fired separately.
First, the crossbow cart on the city wall locked the dragon, forcing the dragon to move towards the shooting range of the three dragon hunting crossbows. Although the crossbow cart has limited lethality to the dragon, the consequences of the dragon being shot by the crossbow arrows of the crossbow cart during high-speed flight are also very serious, so Kangola can only be forced to move.
When the dragon entered the shooting range of the dragon hunting crossbow, a dragon hunting crossbow immediately fired. The timing of this attack was just after the dragon dodged the crossbow arrow. At this time, the dragon had just finished dodging, and the inertia of air movement was greater. It was very difficult to overcome the inertia and make a move immediately. Although the dragon was originally a flying creature, it was very familiar with the inertia of air movement and could do many incredible things, but there was still an impact.
The dragon was obviously also very careful about the movement of the dragon hunting crossbow. At the moment the dragon hunting crossbow was fired, the dragon immediately made a dodging action. Although the action was a little delayed, relying on the dragon's super high physical fitness and flying ability, Kangola still managed to dodge this attack.
However, this attack was not originally a killing move. The real killing move was the two dragon hunting crossbows behind. After the dragon dodged the first dragon hunting crossbow to the extreme, the other two dragon hunting crossbows were fired almost at the same time, and the shooting point just blocked the left and right of the dragon, maximizing the space for the dragon to dodge.
"Roar!!!!" A dragon roar containing pain resounded throughout the sky. Kangola was shot.
It has to be said that although humans have various shortcomings compared to other races, humans are not strong enough, they are not born to use magic, and they are not as powerful as dragons. But humans are the race in the world that is best at summarizing and learning from experience.
Take dragon slaying as an example. Just looking at the strength comparison between humans and dragons, at first glance, humans are basically destined to be crushed by dragons. But the reality is that humans are almost killing dragons. The reason is that humans have stronger learning and summarizing abilities.
In the war with dragons, humans have summed up a set of very effective methods for dragons.
