Monster Hunt: Notes from a Hunter

Chapter 257 Prepare to Climb the Dragon!

The attack target of the Sand Fleet shifted from Lingshan Dragon's abdomen to the purple crystal cluster behind it.

Regardless of whether the combat goal of weakening his physical strength can be achieved, at least Lingshanlong has become much calmer.

The reason is actually very simple - it doesn't hurt to hit there.

Those vein-like purple crystal clusters seem to grow on Lingshanlong's back, but they are not part of the biological tissue, at most they are some secretions, and the former will naturally not feel pain.

Thus began a long war of attrition.

The ultimate goal of the Sand Fleet is not to kill Lingshanlong. In fact, it is almost impossible for this magnificent creature with a body length of more than 100 meters to be killed by external force.

They just need to block the advance route of Lingshanlong and keep Lingshanlong away from Locklark.

However, this goal is not as easy to achieve as it sounds.

Locklark seemed to have something attracting Fengshanlong and Lingshanlong.

The Sand Fleet can only force Lingshanlong to change its forward route by continuously attacking and then using restraint ammunition for traction.

No one knows when Ling Shanlong will get tired, give up and leave.

Until then, they can only hold on.

Fortunately, those who work hard in this "big desert feast" will always be rewarded.

Whenever the balls of the heavy bed crossbow hit the purple crystals on Lingshanlong's back, fragments of the crystals would fall down.

The effect of the artillery is even more remarkable, and each shell can blow up a large area.

These crystals are scattered on the sand sea, reflecting the seductive fluorescence under the moonlight.

When the battle is over, the Sand Fleet will collect these crystals. No one will doubt the value of these crystals. Ordinary merchants are not even eligible to buy them!

At that time, everyone will share a generous reward.

So the captain of the ship didn't need to worry about morale at all, he was worried about other things.

At the mid-heaven that month, the thing he was most worried about finally happened.

——The crew in charge of managing the arsenal came over and reported in a low voice that the remaining heavy crossbow shells of the dragon attack ship were less than [-]% and the artillery shells were less than [-]%.

This is also thanks to the fact that before departure, he temporarily ordered to carry more ammunition, otherwise the ammunition may have been exhausted at this time.

Can't go on like this!

The effect of destroying the crystal on Lingshanlong's back is still unknown. If they use up the last ammunition, they will be too passive.

"Order the ships to stop attacking!" The captain of the ship ordered in a low voice.

While the horn-bearer and flag-bearer conveyed the order, the captain of the ship took out the binoculars and carefully observed the movement of Lingshanlong.

The state of the latter is still relatively calm, although it is a bit risky, but this is the only way to do it now.

"Squads [-], [-], and [-] are on standby. Teams [-], [-], and Mineyama Maru are aiming at the back and firing restraint bombs, ready to fight on the dragon."

After the order was issued, Mineyama Maru and the sand boats participating in the Dragon Climbing fired restraint bombs together to connect the hull with Lingshanlong.

Since the restraint bombs landed on the thick carapace of the dragon's back in Lingshan, and did not penetrate into the flesh, it just twisted its body and did not react too violently.

This made the captain of the ship breathe a sigh of relief.

"stick it on!"

The winch rotated quickly, driving the dragon-fighting boat and the sand boat to approach Lingshanlong.

Members of the hunters and the city fortress guerrillas came to the side of the ship one after another, checked the equipment, and rubbed their hands together, moving their limbs.

It was their turn to play.

Gordon Hayata and Pork Chop also retreated from the positions of heavy bed crossbows and artillery, and joined Denglong's team.

This is their "job".

"Hey!"

With a muffled "bang", Mary Dan jumped directly from the high platform at the stern to the side of the ship.

If it weren't for the entire deck being paved with tough cloud-knot wood, it might have been smashed through by this fierce woman in full armor and carrying a sledgehammer.

She twisted her thick neck, making a teeth-stinging "click" sound.

"It's been a long time, and the old lady only swung the hammer once, and it still hit the gong, and the bones are itchy."

Gordon put on the helmet, adjusted it, and joked with a smile: "Senior Mary Dan, you can hold back for a while, don't make a big roundabout and throw us all out."

"Hahaha!"

"Then our small body can't bear it!"

Several hunters beside him booed together with the guerrillas.

The bold "Black Boom Dragon" didn't mind this kind of ridicule at all. She bared her white teeth and said, "Okay, I will increase my strength later, so that you don't feel the pain."

Everyone laughed again, and the little tension in their hearts dissipated.

The dragon-fighting boat was also attached to Lingshanlong at this time.

"I'm rushing first!" Mary Dan shouted, without even looking at the rope.

The legs jumped up vigorously, and after somersaults in the air, they landed on Lingshanlong's stubby legs, and quickly climbed onto the dragon's back with the help of the protruding carapace on Lingshanlong's rough skin.

The combatants cheered, some climbed up the rope, and some jumped onto the dragon's legs first, following Maridan's example.

Hayata's movements were quick and vigorous, and he didn't even use his hands during the climbing process. He jumped up with his feet pointing to the carapace protrusions.

Gordon, who was wearing heavy armor and carrying a big sword on his back, was more numb. His strength was great, but his flexibility was more than a step behind the former, so he had to be honest and climb up on the ground with both hands and feet.

The people who climbed the dragon's back of Lingshan quickly dispersed.

There is no need to choose the attack position, and there is nothing to choose. All you can see are large purple crystal clusters. Gordon randomly found a place that had been bombarded by shells and was full of cracks and stood still.

Draw the sword and start preparing to charge up the slash.

"boom!"

The fire dragon's brilliant sword slashed down, and as the flames burst out, large chunks of crystals collapsed.

Is it not resistant to high temperature?

Gordon grinned.

Strongly charged posture, strong charged slash, followed by the most powerful true charged slash!

A set of charged combos was over, and the huge crystal cluster taller than a person in front of Gordon had been completely broken into countless fragments.

"Aha! Well done, look at my mother!"

The muscles of Maridan's arms are stretched high, and the hammer [Daihu Wan] tamps like a continuous hammering of the crystal cluster, followed by a round upward swing (home run, or oppression), and the same Smash the cluster before her with ease,
In terms of damage ability alone, heavy weapons such as big swords and sledgehammers have incomparably powerful advantages.

In contrast, Hayatta, who uses a Taidao, is a little awkward.

After a few consecutive sword strikes to build up the momentum of the sword, a red light of the air blade floated on the Flying Dragon Knife [Kui], Hayata gave a soft shout, and launched the air blade to slash!

The sword light flashed quickly.

However, the whole series of cuts only left a few long, narrow and deep knife marks on the purple crystal cluster in front of her.

Such an attack might be able to easily cut off the monster's muscles, but it can't do anything with "stones" like crystal clusters.

Not far from Hariya Tower, Cessna, who had just climbed the dragon's back, also behaved in the same way.

She drew her two knives, and the blades clashed.

Ghost dance!

After a while of jingling, the crystal cluster was nothing serious, but it made her wrist numb.

Seeing this, an old member of the fortress guerrillas who climbed up behind her said angrily, "What are you doing, use a pickaxe!"

"Oh!" Cessna blushed and put away her two knives, and took off the pickaxe behind her.

Suddenly, Hayata followed suit, sheathed the knife, and was about to pull out the pickaxe to strike the crystal cluster.

But at this moment, the voice of pork chop struggling came from below.

"Help, help me meow"

Hayata looked over and was surprised to find that the pork chop, which was only over one meter tall, was climbing up with difficulty against a super-giant bomb barrel about two meters high.
