Monster Hunt: Notes from a Hunter

Chapter 1433 Coming one after another
The Nergigante in front of him had changed just as much since the last time he saw it.

His body was covered with scars, obviously caused by other ancient dragons or some powerful monsters in the demon gathering place.

With the super strong self-healing ability that can almost be regarded as a special ability, these wounds have basically healed.

Some particularly deep penetrating wounds, even if they have not healed completely, have already been squeezed out by developed muscles and will not affect movement.

The more obvious changes are in the bony spines all over the body.

The bone spines of the Nergigante will constantly break, fall off, and regenerate in battle after battle.

Each new bone spine is sharper and harder than the previous one.

Just like the one that dealt the final blow to the Dark Dragon.

The bone spines all over its body emit a dazzling reflection like diamonds, and can even penetrate the [epitaph] made of unknown alloys of ancient civilizations.

The guy in front of him hasn't reached that level yet, but it seems that he is not too far away.

No wonder he ran over here in such a hurry.

Did he regard the aura of a "senior" emanating from [Crazy Mark] as some kind of opportunity?
If you really think about it this way, it seems to be right?
Gordon raised the greatsword with a grim smile, and took a smooth stance. He swung it to forcefully block the claws that were pressed down by the Nergigante, and then released the counterattack with a true charged slash, which slashed fiercely at the Nergigante's head.

As an "ancient dragon killer", the extremely experienced Nergigante has terrifyingly fast reactions.

It had no intention of dodging the attack, but instead swung its other front paw horizontally and grabbed Gordon.

Obviously, it is a trade of injury for injury, and with its self-healing ability, this exchange will never be a loss.

This is the way that the Destroyer Dragon is used to fighting.

Gordon, who had fought with Nergigante many times, certainly understood this. Logically speaking, the most appropriate option at this time was to interrupt the attack and dodge quickly.

But there was no wavering in his sword-swinging movement.

With a low shout, the [Immovable] greatsword slashed firmly on the forehead of the Annihilating Dragon.

The pitch-black scales were shattered, the ancient dragon's blood gushed out, and the high-intensity dragon-attribute energy hidden deep in the blade burst out.

The surging and jumping red arcs were so bright that people could not open their eyes.

The Nergigante howled madly in pain, but did not retreat even a single step. Its sharp claws were about to send Gordon flying.

At this moment, Feng Ying took the lead and inserted herself, blocking the sharp claw that was almost bigger than her entire body.

As the shield smashed into the ground, countless silk threads swooped out, wrapping around the shield and firmly fixing it, and the full defensive preparation was completed in an instant.

“Ziga——”

The friction between the dragon claws and the metal shield made one's teeth ache.

Although she was a little hasty, she still took the blow steadily.

Gordon, who had already expected Feng Ying to come to his rescue, smiled and raised his left arm, using the catapult to intensify the recoil of the shooting, and in a blink of an eye he completed the preparation for the true charged slash again.

Feng Ying also inserted the sword into the shield at the same time, the weapon shape changed rapidly, and the counterattack giant axe swung down.

"(Big) Shit!"

"Really charged attack!"

The charged giant axe and greatsword were swung at the same time and smashed on the top of the dragon head.

The frost energy mixed with the dragon-attributed black light that shone with red lightning and exploded together.

Even the Nergigante, which was renowned for its physical strength, could not withstand an attack of this intensity. Its hideous giant skull was smashed heavily onto the snow.

The thin layer of snow could not absorb such an impact, and its inertia was bounced back by the hard rock.

Its brain was buzzing due to the violent shock.

He lost control of his body in an instant and fell to the ground.

The monster fell to the ground due to heavy damage, which was undoubtedly the best time to attack.

In addition, the greatsword and shield axe are both heavy weapons with amazing explosive power. If the two cooperate well, there is even a good chance of completing the headlock.

Gordon just drew his sword and did not rush to launch an attack.

Feng Ying also disassembled the giant axe and returned to the more flexible sword and shield mode.

At the same time, a figure came flying over.

He took advantage of the slope and leaped up, transforming into a storm of sword blades that flew all the way from the tail of the Nergigante to its head.

Then it spun and slid to remove the excess inertia, and landed steadily next to Gordon and the other man.

"Hurry up, let's entangle it first." Julius said, and turned into a demon again, dancing wildly towards the fallen Nergigante.

Gordon nodded, and he and Fengying put away their weapons, preparing to call the pterosaur.

This was discussed in advance. There is a wide strait between the Demon Gathering Land and the continent where the Netherworld Valley is located. If you want to get across, you can only rely on pterosaurs to fly.

The flying speed of pterosaurs cannot be compared with that of ancient dragons.

If you take off directly when you encounter Nergigante, you will almost certainly be caught up and shot down by it.

Therefore, the other team must temporarily entangle Nergigante to give them a chance to create some distance.

But just as Feng Ying blew the whistle, the acid pterosaur hovering in the air swooped down, ready to take them away.

Another roar came from the distant sky.

Gordon and the other man paused.

This is the current state of the demon gathering place. After this period of chaos, there are almost no two ancient dragons that do not have hatred against each other.

Especially Nergigante, the guy who causes trouble everywhere.

The only reason why it was not killed by the other ancient dragons early on was that it was strong enough.

The roars from the battle just now attracted someone nearby.

"It's the Flame Queen Dragon."

Aiden rushed over, and while cooperating with Julius to attack the rising Nergigante, he quickly said: "I can't hear this voice wrong."

"Bang! Bang!"

There was the sound of light crossbow firing in the distance.

Oshura and Gale from the Alcohol Team were bombarding the approaching Flame Dragon, trying to intercept it.

If the Flame Queen Dragon and the Nergigante collide with each other, they will be safe, but the subsequent induction plan will most likely be completely disrupted.

However, the arrival of the Flame Queen Dragon means that the Flame King Dragon is likely to follow closely behind.

Even if the Alcohol Team cooperates well and has the help of temporary member Gale, it is almost impossible for them to defeat the combined forces of the Flame Queen Dragon and the Flame King Dragon.

Feng Ying opened her mouth hesitantly, but before she could say anything, she was interrupted by Gordon in a low shout.

"Let's go! There's no point in us staying here. There will only be more and more ancient dragons."

As he spoke, Gordon fired the grappling hook without hesitation, hooked it under the swooping Acid Pterosaur, and flew into the air.

Feng Ying no longer hesitated and followed closely behind.

The Nergigante that got up was still staring at Gordon. It shook its head and swung its horns, knocking back Julius and Aiden.

Then it spread its wings wide, ready to take off, chasing after Gordon and the other two before they could fly far away.

"Nadia!" Julius yelled.

Without his reminder, Nadia had already taken the lead in launching the flash bomb loaded on the catapult, forcibly interrupting the Nergigante's take-off.

Having temporarily lost its sight, the Nergigante started to claw and bite wildly.

Aiden seized the opportunity to launch his flying claws, risking being hit by those unforeseen attacks, and leaped onto the side of the Nergigante's head.

Then he swung his steel claws and continuously attacked the eye sockets, ear holes and other vital parts of the Nergigante, forcing it to turn.

Gordon and Feng Ying took this opportunity to urge the Acid Pterosaur to accelerate as fast as possible and fly towards the quiet canyon where the Red Dragon was.

On the ground, the furious Nergigante shook its head and threw Aiden away.

Aiden adjusted his posture in the air, landed on the ground, rolled a few times to release the force, stood up quickly, drew his sword and shield, and rushed towards the Nergigante with red eyes without fear.

Looking at his disciples charging bravely, Julius couldn't help but chuckle.

"Take it easy. Our mission is to keep it busy for a while. Don't let it get too angry. We'll have to let it chase Gordon later."
