Chapter 360 Fierce fight in the forest
“The timing is good, Babaka!” Maka stretched out her arms and stood up from the ground
“Kabacha!”
Maka looked at Hayata, "Attack? Or?"
Hayata stood up and looked at the thunder wolf dragon that had temporarily lost his eyesight, but appeared more ferocious and violent, constantly waving its claws and flicking its tail. , thinking quickly in his mind.
At this time, it is close to a strong attack. On the one hand, it is very dangerous, and the offensive effect is not likely to be very good.
This will be a protracted battle, so don’t be impatient.
"Adjust the state."
Hayata drank the potion one bottle after another, and then began to sharpen the knife.
She was not injured before, and she was drinking functional medicines such as ghost medicine and sclerosing medicine.
These potions were expensive, and she might not be willing to drink them like this during normal hunting, but the Thunder Wolf Dragon in front of her was not the kind of opponent she could deal with with enough time to spare.
As long as it can increase the success rate of hunting, it is worthwhile to use up all the potions and props brought out.
"Okay."
Maka nodded, and also started taking various potions and polishing weapons.
She could see that Hayata's tactical style was relatively stable, and there was nothing wrong with that.
At least it's better than those reckless men who are eager to die as soon as their passion comes over.
To put it bluntly, the ultimate goal of this battle is not "hunting", but "escape".
"Should we move to a place with a higher density of trees?"
Maka, who had simply polished the weapon, put the fire dragon stick behind her back and suggested: "A fifteen-meter-long one A large monster, no matter how flexible it is, will always be disturbed, and there are more tactical options.
My previous escapes were based on slowing down its pace through the trees in the forest.”
"Okay."
Hayata nodded without hesitation.
Maka can persist for a whole day under the continuous pursuit of the Thunder Wolf Dragon, which in itself is very telling.
If the Thunder Wolf Dragon's sense of smell wasn't so sharp, she might have escaped from the Thunder Wolf Dragon's territory long ago.
While the Thunder Wolf Dragon's vision had not fully recovered, Hayata and Maka started running quickly. Feng Ying in the distance saw this and naturally followed her on her dog.
"Aren't you going to attack?"
Feng Ying looked hesitant and her tone was a little worried, "If you don't find an opportunity to attack and clear out some of the lightning bugs, that guy will always be in a super charged state."
"Let's go to areas with more lush forests to look for opportunities." Hayata explained simply.
“Oh!”
Feng Ying felt relieved.
"Ouch——!" A long and angry roar came from behind.
The Thunder Wolf Dragon has escaped from the chaotic state. It simply sniffed twice and immediately confirmed the direction in which the hunters were fleeing, then spread out its limbs and ran wildly in pursuit.
“It’s catching up!”
Feng Ying, who didn’t have to run by herself, kept looking back to confirm the distance between the Thunder Wolf Dragon and them. In terms of running speed, the Thunder Wolf Dragon was the fastest she had ever seen. The fastest of all large monsters.
Especially the Thunder Wolf Dragon in its super-charged state, which is much faster than her Fang Hound.
"Fight here."
Hayata turned around and stopped. There were many more trees around than in the previous fighting area.
Fighting here, their movements of wielding weapons may be a little disturbed, but for the huge Thunder Wolf Dragon, the impact will definitely be greater.
Hayata stood in front of a thick tree with several people hugging each other, pulled out the night sword [Moon Shadow], pointed the tip of the sword forward, and calmed down.
After entering the super-charged state, Thunder Wolf Dragon's super-high-speed attacks followed one after another, leaving her with lingering fears.
Such an attack can only be avoided by rolling or flying. If you fail to get up in time, you are likely to be directly beaten to death by the former and crushed to the ground.
Being close to these big trees can effectively prevent the Thunder Wolf Dragon from continuing its rampage.
Unless it wants to hit a tree.
Maka jumped up to the top of the tree in twos and twos.
She planned to continue the air battle and attack the Thunder Wolf Dragon's back.
It is indeed risky to do so, but as Feng Ying just said, they must eliminate the lightning bugs as much as possible to force the Thunder Wolf Dragon to exit the super charged state.
As for the Thunder Wolf Dragon, the area where the lightning bugs are most concentrated is the back.
When there is no shooter in the team, she is the only one who can attack this part, and she must bear this risk.
Chasing the hunters into a densely forested area, the Thunder Wolf Dragon finally slowed down, but that was only relatively "slow". Jumping left and right, it quickly reached the hunters. in front of them.
Hayata and the others were already prepared for the Thunder Wolf Dragon to pounce directly on them and launch a crazy attack on them.
However, at this time, Thunder Wolf Dragon showed extraordinary caution and wisdom.
It stopped twenty or thirty meters away from the hunters, walking slowly, as if to confirm whether there was an ambush or trap.
It may also be that he is observing the surrounding terrain and obstacles and thinking about appropriate tactics.
This cautious posture makes the hunters' scalps numb - the fierce yet cunning opponent is the most difficult to deal with.
If a big wild boar king was here, how could he care so much? The pig has already come forward suddenly.
This mutual observation and confrontation lasted for several seconds until it was broken by a random figure.
Feng Ying, who was riding a tooth hound, ran past between Hayata and the Thunder Wolf Dragon, shouting and screaming, and threw a dyed ball at the Thunder Wolf Dragon's head.
She's not playing tricks or going crazy or anything.
But she recalled what Gordon said to her during the training session in Minagard City.
——No matter how cunning a monster is, it is still a monster, and provocation is always useful.
The strong-smelling dye exploded on the Thunder Wolf Dragon's forehead. The pungent smell made it very uncomfortable. After shaking its head hard, it roared with red eyes.
Traps, ambushes, tactics and other ideas were thrown out of the mind.
The lightning on its body was full of lightning. It jumped up and rolled sideways. With a flick of its long tail, several dazzling lightning balls were thrown out from its tail and struck the wind in an arc. Ying.
"What is this! Amber, run!" Feng Ying screamed.
It’s not breath, but it seems to be tracking? !
Hu Huo carried Feng Ying on his back and jumped left and right between the big trees. Fortunately, there were dense forests nearby. Several thunderballs bombarded the tree trunks and vines one after another, bursting out with dazzling lightning.
Hayata took advantage of the thunder wolf dragon's attention to be attracted by Feng Ying, brandishing the sword and rushed straight up. Maka was also jumping between the branches, approaching the target from above.
She waved her insect stick, and the hunting insects flew out, bringing back the monster essence necessary for her to maintain extraordinary flexible movements.
Then he jumped down, ignoring the small arcs of electricity that spread to his body, and waved the fire dragon stick continuously, letting the flames from the head of the stick burn the lightning that was squeezed into the open carapace and continued to discharge. insect.
Hayata aggressively attacked the Thunder Wolf Dragon's face repeatedly, not causing much damage, just to divert its attention and create opportunities for Maka to eliminate more Thunder Bugs.
The sharp blade that kept poking in front of its eyes succeeded in irritating the Thunder Wolf Dragon. It roared and raised its chest, and the sharp claws wrapped with violent lightning were raised high and slammed down.
Hayata immediately jumped back, and the huge claws that fell to the ground stirred up arcs of electricity and spread to her body.
[Hinata] The lightning resistance of the suit can only be said to be average, but the lightning cider he drank before departure played a decisive role at this time.
The aftermath of the arc could not interfere with her actions. Facing the second thunder claw that continued to fall, she counterattacked with a reverse cassock slash. While using the force to continue to retreat backwards, she calmly read the Thunder Wolf Dragon muscle action.
In the supercharged state, Thunder Wolf Dragon's muscle strength is significantly improved under current stimulation, but this improvement is not unlimited.
After two consecutive slaps without sparing any effort, its center of gravity shifted obviously.
Unless it wants to trip itself, a similar attack can be performed at most once!
Hayata breathed out softly.
See you! (End of this chapter)
