Chapter 1441 Being Underestimated

"Spread out as planned! Attack those open wounds!"

After giving a brief command, Gordon rushed towards one of the red dragon's front legs.

There is no record of the Red Dragon in historical documents, so naturally there is no "experience of predecessors" to refer to.

Their tactics were inspired by the battle to hunt the Dark Lantern.

Although one is an adult and the other is a juvenile, there are huge differences in their strength, moves, etc.

But their almost identical body structure determines that their basic behavioral patterns and action habits are common.

In the absence of better basis for reference, continuing the tactics of hunting the Dark Lantern Dragon is the safest option.

The core of this so-called tactic is to cut off toes.

Whether it is a red dragon or a dark dragon, the limbs are relatively slender, and the hit points on the head, chest, and abdomen are very high.

Weapons such as katana and broadsword can be barely reached if they are lifted high.

But that would greatly restrict the moves, so it would be better to focus on attacking the limbs that are on the ground, accumulating damage and forcing the opponent to lose balance and fall.

As for the Sagittarius’ choices, they have a lot more freedom.

The weapon used by Ansir in this battle was the Heavy Crossbow [Famine], and the ammunition he carried was mainly the powerful level 3 armor-piercing grenades.

After throwing out the supernova shell, he loaded the crossbow with armor-piercing grenades and began to shoot at the red dragon's head one by one.

It is hoped that the impact of the explosion will further damage the carapace on the latter's head and knock it unconscious.

Ansel fired continuously to attract the red dragon's attention, while Gordon had already arrived at the red dragon's right front paw.

Aiming at the scars on the dragon's claws that were obviously caused by fangs, Gordon picked up the greatsword with one hand, pulled the trigger with his left arm, and using the recoil of the powerful shot, he completed the preparation for the real charged slash.

With a low shout, the [Immovable] greatsword fell.

The sword blade, which looked like wood but was heavier than steel, slashed at the injured joint of the red dragon's claws and toes.

The moment the sword blade came into contact with the blood of the red dragon.

[Unmovable] The greatsword seemed to have received an extremely strong stimulus, and dragon-attribute energy of astonishing strength suddenly burst out.

The black light surrounded by red lightning spread in the air, and for a moment, Gordon felt that the hilt of the sword was almost out of his control.

He roared, increased his strength, grasped the hilt tightly, and continued to press the sword down.

The injury to the claw and toe joint was already serious, with the joint bones exposed.

Coupled with the powerful power of the True Charge Slash, the sharpness of the purple slash of the [Immovable] Greatsword, the high-intensity dragon attribute energy, and the precise landing point under his control.

It is not surprising that this sword directly cut off the claw.

But the hardness of the red dragon's bones was beyond the hunter's expectations, and the blade was stuck in the middle of the joint.

The ancient dragons can easily break through the red dragon's scales and leave hideous scars on its body because they are ancient dragons.

It is still too difficult to cut off the red dragon's claws in one breath with human power.

However, the power of this sword was enough to cause the Red Dragon to feel severe pain.

It howled angrily, raised its front paws, and stomped towards Gordon.

Gordon rolled in time to avoid the red dragon's stomping attack.

Gordon quickly stood up and prepared himself for the subsequent pursuit, but the pursuit did not come.

The Red Dragon's counterattack ended just like that.

"Ok?"

Gordon was a little surprised.

Mushroom had warned them that the Red Dragon was very fast and aggressive, and was not on the same level as the Dark Dragon.

But Chilong's actions and reactions seemed somewhat unworthy of this evaluation.

Is it because it is seriously injured and too tired?

Or was it because it had never taken humans seriously from the beginning, so it didn't use its full strength?

Whatever the answer is, it’s good for them!

We can take this opportunity to launch a more aggressive offensive.

"Seize the opportunity! It hasn't woken up yet!" Gordon reminded his companions loudly.

Hayata and Feng Ying, who had each found a position to attack, also realized this and stepped up their offensive.

Feng Ying completed the charging at the fastest speed, activated the red shield, and began to yell "Unlock it, damn it".

Hayata aimed at the wound on the red dragon's back exposed by the shattered thorns, fired his flying claws, and flew up.

Perhaps it really didn't realize the danger of these "little two-legged animals", the red dragon didn't even try to get rid of them, as if what flew onto its back was not a hunter, but a mosquito or something.

This made Hayata, who was sitting on its back, reveal a dangerous smile on his face.

[Ice Spirit Blade] slid out of the scabbard.

Refined by the cold air, the ice-blue sword blade was covered with a layer of extremely cold ice.

Hayata stood up and turned his wrist so that the blade pointed diagonally downward.

Since the red dragon didn't struggle, she had plenty of time to choose a position to attack.

It would be great if the sword could pierce the spine and puncture the spinal cord, then the Red Dragon might be seriously injured in an instant.

Unfortunately, that can only be a fantasy. Even if there is a gap between the vertebrae, it cannot be broken through with a random sword.

Instead of pursuing that insignificant possibility, it is better to do something more certain.

Through the spines on the red dragon's back and the bumps and depressions between the muscle lines, she roughly confirmed the location of the bones on the red dragon's back.

Placing the tip of the sword against the wound where the flesh was protruding, Hayata found an angle between the spine and ribs where there was no bone blocking it, and with all his strength, he thrust the sword downwards.

With a light "swish" sound, the sword blade almost penetrated to the handle.

She gripped the hilt tightly again and twisted it hard.

"Roar!"

The red dragon's entire body was shaking violently, and its howls of pain echoed in the cave. The rocks on the wall that had been roasted crisp by the dragon's flames began to fall down with a crackling sound.

Gordon and Feng Ying would naturally not let go of such obvious stiffness.

The charged slash and the attribute releasing slash fell one after another, leaving several new wounds on the red dragon's two front claws.

Perhaps it finally realized the threat posed by these "insignificant little animals", and the red dragon's movements speeded up significantly.

Turning around, a ball of blazing silver energy flame shot towards Feng Ying.

Feng Ying reacted quickly. The moment the Red Dragon turned around, she turned around without thinking, dismantled the weapon, shrank her body, and raised her shield forward to launch a precise defense.

At the same time, he didn't forget to swear, "Why the f*ck is it me!?"

Then he was blasted away by the ball of blazing light.

Of course Chilong would not answer her question.

It only knew that there was a scent on this guy, a scent that was familiar and disgusting to it.

"Cover fire!" Gordon yelled.

Ansel, who was sniping the target in an orderly manner, immediately increased the shooting rhythm and emptied the magazine in one breath.

But the red dragon seemed to be targeting Feng Ying, and the silver-white energy light condensed between its teeth again. Then, this energy turned into an extremely thin ray of light and swept towards the latter.

Feng Ying released the Kinsect to assist her in warding off the attack, alleviating the impact of being blown away. Before she could even catch her breath, she looked up and saw a blazing light sweeping towards her.

"Alas--!"

Feng Ying screamed and released the Kinsect again. Finally, she managed to escape the range of the blazing breath at the last moment and landed in a mess.

But it's more than just a hotline.

The blazing breath swept across the rock walls and the ground, causing a series of violent explosions, and hot flames and debris flying like bomb fragments enveloped her.

Feng Ying only had enough time to lift her shield and didn't even have time to assume a posture to resist the impact. She was about to be blown away again.

A figure fell from the sky and landed in front of her.

The heavy shield blocked the aftermath of the explosion like a city wall, and the arrogant laughter even drowned out the rumbling echoes of the aftermath of the explosion.

"Hahahaha! It doesn't hurt! I arrived first!"
