Chapter 1607 [Claws of the Wasteland 11] A sledgehammer can also cut off a dragon chariot!
Having completed the accumulation of strength as quickly as possible, Mary Dan's already extremely developed muscles expanded again, and the sledgehammer in her hand seemed to be on fire, with a red-gold flame of fighting spirit attached to it. .
Next, she did not stand there stupidly, waiting for Honglong to come to the door in his strongest dragon carriage posture.
Instead, he held the sledgehammer diagonally and continued to accumulate strength while stepping to the side and running.
Once many large monsters start charging with a dragon chariot, the direction of the charge cannot be changed.
But for these two powerful dragons with astonishing limb strength, it is not difficult to adjust the charging path during the dragon carriage.
The bloodshot dragon eyes stared at the hunter. As the yellow sand danced wildly, the astonishing dragon chariot drew an arc on the sand and continued to pursue the hunter.
Maridan, who was running slowly, had her eyes locked on Honglong for an instant.
Unlike the Great Sword's True Charge Slash, which puts all its energy into one blow, the Great Hammer's charge is more flexible and can even move during the charging process.
And the reason why she started jogging at the dangerous moment when the dragon chariot was approaching rapidly, naturally had her own purpose.
The strength of the wild hook claw is strong enough that it can change direction in the dragon carriage, but no matter how strong it is, it cannot change the fact.
——A straight-line charge is always the fastest and most powerful.
Once the direction changes midway, not only will the forward force be dispersed, but also the inertia of the charge must be fought during the turning process, causing the power of the dragon car to drop by at least one step.
Desolate Hook Claw doesn't care much.
In its experience, even if the power of the dragon car will be reduced due to the change of direction, there are still few opponents who can block its attack head-on.
At least not for small creatures like hunters.
However, it underestimates the strength and skill of the hunters.
When there were only the last twenty meters between her and Honglong, Maridan stopped moving. She poured all the power she had accumulated up to this point into her arms, roared, and swung the sledgehammer.
The last ten meters.
Following the inertia of the swing of the sledgehammer, Maridan used her back heel as the axis, and her whole body rotated. At the same time, she exerted further force and continued to add new strength to the sledgehammer.
The last five meters.
Under the repeated superposition of inertia and force, the power carried by the huge hammer has reached its limit. Even if it continues to be swung for half a circle, the sledgehammer may come out uncontrollably.
At this time, Honglong opened his bloody mouth at almost ninety degrees and came to the hunter.
Everything is controlled just right.
Accumulate your strength and hit hard!
With the howling of the wind, the giant hammer hit the top of Honglong's head accurately, and with the crisp sound of the carapace shattering, the fighting spirit exploded.
Hanglong's huge mouth was slammed shut, and at the same time he smashed his ferocious head to the ground.
The inertia of the dragon car cannot be eliminated with a hammer. What Maridan did was just to disrupt the balance of the dragon with a powerful hammer blow.
It's like a knight holding a lance and charging at full speed. If he lowers the tip of the lance and pokes it to the ground during the charge, the only outcome will be that he flips forward and flies out.
The same goes for Honglong whose dragon chariot was interrupted.
Its head was stuck into the sand, and its whole body rolled forward uncontrollably, falling onto the sand.
In the distance, Huali, who was drinking the recovery potion and dealing with her own injuries, stared blankly.
Stop the dragon carriage hard, this is something that the wielders of the sword cannot do in their lifetime.
With this move, it was no surprise that Honglong broke his own neck. Is this the strength of a veteran high-level hunter?
However, in fact, Maridan was not as relaxed as she appeared.
She has avoided a frontal position to facilitate the offloading of force. The moment the attack breaks out, she relies more on the inertia carried by the sledgehammer rather than the strength of her arms. With experience and skills, she has done everything best.
But even so, the impact of the dragon cart and the sledgehammer at the moment of contact still caused her to be seriously injured.
“Still old”
Looking at her opponent who was struggling on the ground and unable to get up for a while, Mary sighed secretly.
If she were twenty years younger, no, ten years younger, she would have chosen to take a gamble and take advantage of this opportunity to rush up and hit Huangclaw on the head.
Then try to see if there is a chance to kill this guy here.
But now.
She is already sixty years old. Even though in a short period of time, she can explode with combat power that is not inferior to that at her peak, her physical strength is not as good as before.
Desolate Hook Claw is not an opponent that can be defeated by a quick brainstorm or a bold move.
Without complete preparations, without teammates who are strong enough and able to cooperate, if you continue to fight, sooner or later you will be at a disadvantage again.
By then, not to mention her, everyone else will also be in a predicament that they can't escape even if they want to.
“Retreat!”
With the decision made, Maridan put away the sledgehammer and made a gesture towards Huali in the distance.
The latter was stunned for a moment, then reacted and nodded vigorously.
The two climbed up the sand dune as quickly as possible. Huali was about to climb over the ridge of the dune and slide down when she saw Maridan stopped and took out a paralysis trap. In just a few seconds, The installation is completed in seconds.
"Let's go!"
After the two slid down the sand dune, not long after they ran out, they heard the roar of a dragon from behind.
Obviously, the booming dragon stepped into the paralysis trap, buying them a lot of time to retreat.
Mari Dan chuckled, took out another set of traps, and began to install them on the spot.
While still taking some time to explain: "Honglong has the ability to fly, but it is not good at it. Most of the time it is gliding from high places.
The top of the big sand dune is a good place to glide, so you need to trap it with a trap to prevent it from taking off using the terrain.
When it breaks free from the paralysis trap, it will definitely become very angry. In a furious state, Honglong will rarely choose to fly. It will follow our scent and continue to pursue on foot.
This sinking trap can tie it up for a while, plus this."
As he said that, the explosives built into the sinking trap blew up a big hole in the soft sand. The sticky net was then rolled out, and the trap was set up.
Mari Dan took out a few fertilizer bombs and threw them into the trap. She could understand this part without explaining.
When the dragon falls into the trap, these fertilizer bombs will be broken while struggling, and the stinky contents will be covered with its body, seriously interfering with its sense of smell.
After completing the arrangement, the two continued to run at full speed. Just as Maridan expected, soon after, the furious roar of the dragon was heard from behind again.
At the same time, they saw a sand boat speeding towards this direction.
Maridan shouted and waved vigorously. After receiving the signal, the sand boat adjusted its direction, made a smart turn, and stopped beside the two of them.
“Have you dealt with that Honglong?” Haifa, holding the rudder under his arm, stretched out his hand to help pull Huali onto the sand boat, then turned around and said with a smile: “As expected of my mother, Hong Dragon expert!”
Maridan pushed the side of the boat with her palms, turned over and jumped onto the sand boat, and the whole boat shook.
She scolded, "Stop talking nonsense, you bastard! Let's sail quickly, we are still chasing you. If we are caught up, we will all have to answer here!"
"Hoot, quack, quack—— ! ! ”
Haifa was startled by the violent shouts from behind. She quickly adjusted the sails, filled the sails, and raised the ship as fast as possible.
Fortunately, luck was on their side this time.
The desert night wind was blowing, the speed of the sand boat was getting faster and faster, and the roar of the terrifying dragon was getting farther and farther.
After dealing with Honglong all the way, Huali, who had been tense all night, let out a long sigh of relief and leaned on the side of the ship, feeling a little exhausted.
Only then did she notice that there was someone huddled on the sand boat - the young man from the nomadic village.
He was wrapped in a blanket, hugging his knees and lowering his head, huddled in the corner without saying a word.
Hua Li remembered something and turned around to ask Haifa, "Where are the other survivors? Have they been arranged to take refuge in the camp?"
Haifa, who was teasing his mother about "You actually retreat?" heard this, and the smile on his face faded.
“He is the last survivor.”
“Impossible!” Huali shouted subconsciously, “I saw a few survivors when I rushed to the village. I even saved one with my own hands, how is that possible?”
Hua Li’s voice became smaller and smaller.
Yes, it is true that she held back the most dangerous Honglong, but who could stop those Huang Velociraptors that were hunting everywhere at that time?
Huali's eyes fell on the young man who was as dazed as a puppet.
I seem to have seen myself back then.
————
ps. This chapter ends here for the time being. I have no intention of solving the Wild Hook Claw here. This thing relies on an elderly hunter and two It is impossible for a low-level hunter to solve it.
Some people may have guessed that there will be a follow-up to the "young man" who spent a lot of time describing in this chapter but does not even have a name.
That’s right! If I plan to write about the wilderness in the future, this person will probably be the protagonist of the wilderness part. In that case, this [Claws of the Wasteland] will be the prequel.
But to be honest, I haven’t thought about how to involve the protagonist of the next book in the wilderness plot. It’s not impossible to directly replace the protagonist of the game, but that would be equivalent to writing the plot of the game again, which seems to be boring.
We have to wait for the game to come out and see the plot and settings before we know the specific details. (End of this chapter)
