Monster Hunt: Notes from a Hunter

Chapter 1453: The Dark Sun

Julius realized something and tried to rush forward, but was blown back by the wind pressure stirred up by the dragon wings.

When the wind pressure weakened slightly, the red dragon had already risen seven or eight meters off the ground.

With the rope of the flying claw cut, it was impossible for him to jump to such a height.

Julius, who was almost in despair, had to swing his arms and throw the two swords in his hands towards the red dragon that was slowly rising into the air.

As expected, the two thrown swords were bounced off by the red dragon's scales and had no effect.

Silver-white incandescent energy light gushed out from the red dragon's eyes.

The move that caused them heavy casualties is coming again.

“Woof!”

The sound of hurried footsteps and the dull roar of the hound were approaching rapidly.

At this time, the red dragon had risen to a height of nearly 20 meters in the air. At this height, even if it launched its flying claws immediately, it would easily miss.

At this moment, Feng Ying, who was riding Amber at full speed, jumped up from the saddle.

He released the Kinsects continuously into the air, and with the help of the silk threads, he reached a height of seven or eight meters in the blink of an eye.

"Come on!"

She roared and continued to shoot her flying claws upwards, successfully hooking onto the red dragon's claws.

Hayata, who was following closely on Gale, also fired her flying claws at the same time, and the steel claws hung on the shield on her right arm.

As the spring of the catapult reeled in, the two of them flew upwards quickly and climbed onto the red dragon's hind claws together.

Julius was stunned for a moment by the acrobatic cooperation between the two men, then he waved his fist vigorously and shouted, "That's the move! Interrupt it!"

Sensing that something had crawled onto its hind paws, the red dragon flapped its wings and spun in the air, trying to throw the two off.

Hayata and Fengying gritted their teeth and held on tightly.

They knew very well that if they failed at this moment, everyone might die.

After a few tumbling and maneuvers to no avail, the red dragon lowered its head and sprayed energy flames at its hind paws.

Feng Ying exerted strength with all her limbs and climbed upwards with all her might, reaching the red dragon's legs.

Hayata's actions were more radical. The moment the energy flame hit, she kicked her feet and did a backwards somersault to avoid the spray of energy flame.

Before her body fell, she launched her flying claws again.

The steel claws hit the target accurately, and Hayata took the opportunity to fly straight up and climb onto the side of the red dragon's neck.

"Roar!"

The red dragon roared and struggled, flying higher and higher.

Hayata used his legs to firmly stabilize his body, and the dragon sword [Red Lotus] slid out of the scabbard.

As for how to land safely afterwards, she had no time to think about it.

He gripped the hilt of the sword tightly with both hands, found the wound, and thrust the sword in hard.

The dragon sword [Red Lotus] that pierced the red dragon's neck, stimulated by the dragon blood, burst out with dragon-attribute energy.

The scarlet electric light jumped and danced, burning the sword body red, and even the hilt became as hot as molten metal.

Ignoring the severe pain from the burning flesh on his palms, Hayata gritted his teeth and pushed the Dragon Sword [Red Lotus] deeper.

The nearly two-meter-long sword blade was halfway penetrated.

Feng Ying leaped and climbed to the red dragon's chest, and began to swing the sword in her hand and chop wildly.

"Gah-!"

The red dragon's roar became sharper.

The pain from the hunters' attacks came second.

The continuous burst of dragon-attribute energy threw the earth energy absorbed and refined in its body into chaos.

Even the silver-white light shining in the dragon's pupils dimmed in a flash.

They finally interrupted the red dragon's attack.

The furious red dragon swooped down to the ground, as if it wanted to take the two hateful hunters with it and smash them into meat paste.

"Get out of here!" Gordon yelled from the ground.

Hayata and Feng Ying loosened their hands and feet at the same time and broke away from the red dragon.

They were still dozens of meters above the ground. Falling from this height and at this speed would be enough to smash them to pieces.

Gordon and two of his hounds ran to pick them up, but Feng Ying reacted faster.

She first launched her flying claws, hooked Hayata, and used the reeled rope to pull them together.

Even though the sharp steel claws might hurt the latter, there was no time to worry about that at this moment.

When she was only about twenty meters away from the ground, she released two Kinsects one after another to slow down.

The Kinsect couldn't hold up the two fully-armed hunters, but it did help them reduce their falling speed to a barely acceptable level.

The two men adjusted their posture and landed on the ground, rolling several times before limping to their feet.

Seeing this, Gordon's heart finally settled down, but he didn't even have time to breathe a sigh of relief.

With a loud "bang", the red dragon also fell to the ground.

It turned its head and bit it, pulling out the dragon sword [Red Lotus] that was still stuck at the base of its neck and was already covered with cracks from the continuous dragon attribute bursts, and broke it into pieces in one bite.

The furious roar formed a tangible air wave that spread in all directions.

With it as the source, the silver-white energy light spread like a spider web, covering the entire underground cave of astonishing size.

It no longer wants to save energy.

It is going to burn these damn hunters to ashes now!
Astonishing energy surged like a tide and poured into its body.

Strong light enveloped the body of the crimson dragon, and the energy escaping from the gaps between its scales turned into transparent flames, burning fiercely.

The golden dragon pupils and those secondary eyes were condensed with blazing light, and the air exhaled from its mouth and nose also turned into silver-white flames like energy breath.

The entire quiet valley, no, the entire earth, began to shake violently.

Is this the true power of the "Dragon King"?
What appeared on Gordon's face was not fear or horror, but a hint of helplessness.

"Since death is a foregone conclusion, there is nothing to be afraid of." He said to himself.

Walking on the scorching red molten ground, he walked towards the forbidden dragon shrouded in the glow of energy.

At this moment, an invisible pressure fell.

This feeling does not act on the body or mind, but falls directly on the soul.

It was like watching the sky fall down, heavy, depressing and suffocating.

The red dragon's movement of gathering energy also paused. It suddenly raised its head, and its dragon eyes, with blazing light gushing out, stared towards the sky.

"come yet"

The professor opened the multi-functional eyepiece with trembling hands and looked upwards.

After a few seconds of silence, a terrifying roar that was even louder than a volcanic eruption penetrated through the layers of rocks and shook the cave.

Gordon felt as if his chest was hit by a sledgehammer, and blood oozed out of his mouth, nose, and ears.

He looked up and saw the cave dome, which was made up of layers of rocks, shattered in an instant.

Before those huge rocks could fall, they were swallowed by the boundless flames and turned into dust.

The red lightning that could no longer be called "electrical light" shone, coating the world with an ominous dark red color.

Under the dark sky without any sunlight, a dark figure hung high in the air, like an eclipsed sun swallowed by darkness.

"Boom--!"

Another burst of red lightning flashed in the sky, briefly illuminating the figure.

Reverse scales covered its entire body.

Just one glance at the huge, curved, upward-curving horns would make one think of the word "destruction" itself.

That is the dark star that brings the black sky.

It is the embodiment of destruction, an unspeakable taboo, and the strongest dragon that even gods fear.
That is the black sun.
