Although it has only been a few months since he was officially promoted to five-star, Julius is already considered the best among five-star hunters in terms of technology and equipment level.
Just being under the heavy beetle, withstanding the continuous attacks of its hammer-shaped legs and round-moon tail pincers, and turning around calmly like a walk, even the petite Pork Chop felt inferior.
Not to mention that he can always accurately seize the short gaps between monster attacks and launch swift counterattacks.
It seems thrilling, but it never fails.
This has nothing to do with luck, but with real skills and strength.
After swinging his two swords and leaving several staggered wounds on the heavy beetle's soft abdomen, Julius quickly retreated, avoiding the former's foot attack.
The lightning damage associated with the execution saw was not very effective against the heavy beetle, but the high-speed rotating saw blade still caused severe pain.
It screamed, exerted force on its hind limbs, and slammed its heavy body forward, but was once again dodged by the dual-sword user with a sliding movement.
The heavy beetle became angry. It raised its body and opened the special glands in its abdomen.
Julius, who had seen it once before, knew that the heavy beetle was planning to release hormones and forcefully summon the beetle, so he rushed forward to try to interrupt.
Unfortunately, it was too late. The foul-smelling gas spurted out, blowing the dual-sword user away, and at the same time, the hormones spread rapidly.
On the other side, Gordon, who was chasing the beetle slasher, noticed that the former's movements suddenly stopped, and he immediately understood what happened.
Come again? !
He cursed secretly in his heart, took half a step back, and started preparing to charge up his sword.
Under the continuous fire of fire bombs, the charging speed of the Thor Beetle, whose wings were seriously damaged, was not as fast as the previous one. When it passed in front of Gordon, the three-stage charged slash was released just in time.
The Explosive Knife Kai tore through the air and slashed hard at the beetle's side, opening a horrific wound that could almost see the internal organs.
Toru Beetle's body shook violently and almost fell out of the air.
However, the effect of the pheromone made it ignore the pain. After adjusting its flying attitude, it continued to fly straight towards the heavy beetle.
Helpless, Gordon put away his sword for the second time and ran after the beetle.
When he thought that he might have to experience the same thing two or three more times, his liver ached.
Nadia was still shooting, trying to shoot down the Thor Beetle before it could reach the Heavy Beetle.
But this guy looked seriously injured, but he just managed to fly to the side of the heavy beetle, and was about to land on the heavy beetle to complete the combination.
Just when the hunters were having a headache, Pig Chop, who had been wandering around the monster but had never been able to find any chance, jumped out.
A small flash bomb was thrown in front of the heavy beetle.
Bright light blooms.
The sudden light deprived the heavy beetle of its vision. This unprecedented experience made it panic, dizzy and shaking, making it difficult to complete the docking with the beetle that had lost its thinking ability.
"Beautiful! Pork chop!"
Gordon cheered and quickened his pace again.
He chased until he tried to land on the heavy beetle, but because of the latter's dizziness, he fell behind the beetle on the ground and began to prepare for the real charged attack.
Julius also activated his ghost transformation, ran over at full speed, and used a super-speed ghost dance at the somewhat stupid Toru Beetle.
The fragile cephalothorax of the Thor Beetle was chopped messily by Julius's execution saw. The golden electric current was introduced into its body along the blade, continuously destroying its muscles and nerves, making its movements further stiff.
What really had the final say was Gordon's True Charged Slash.
Carrying the power that Gordon had accumulated to the limit, the steel blade fell heavily and directly cut open the scarred soft abdomen of the beetle.
Messy internal organs and dark green body fluids were flowing all over the place.
The beetle's body twitched violently for a while, and finally fell down stiffly.
The third one!
It was not until the beetle was completely dead that the heavy beetle was finally freed from the blinding effect caused by the flash bomb.
Naturally, it doesn't feel sad or anything like that, it just feels extremely angry.
The relatively simple thinking of the beetle creature made it behave very stubbornly. After screaming at the hunters for a while, it began to release hormonal gas again to summon the beetle.
As usual, the hunters did not disturb it. Gordon even secretly took out the whetstone and sharpened the knife.
However, a few seconds later, Julius noticed something unusual.
Is the amount of hormonal odor this guy released this time too much?
"Something's wrong."
Julius whispered to himself, then suddenly raised his voice and shouted: "Nadia! Cut it off!"
"Bang! Bang! Bang!"
Three fire bombs roared in succession, accurately hitting the glands where the beetle releases its odor. The explosive flames made the heavy beetle scream.
But it was too late.
A sharp buzzing sound sounded in the distance, and it was approaching here at an extremely fast speed.
It was a beetle sprinting with all its might and flying at full speed.
Gordon and Nadia tried to intercept, but were unable to do so. From the dull but crazy action pattern of this pure beetle, it can be seen that it has completely fallen into the control of the heavy beetle.
Hunters finally knew why the heavy beetle released hormonal gases for an extra long time this time.
Whether you are "attracted" or "controlled" to beetles seems to be determined by the concentration of hormones in the air.
The long-term release of hormonal gases directly increases the hormonal concentration in the nearby area to a "control" level.
Therefore, as soon as this beetle came nearby, it immediately rushed over like crazy.
Porkchop threw a flash bomb again, trying to prevent the fusion of Thor Beetle and Heavy Beetle.
However, I don’t know if the heavy beetle was prepared, or if it was simply lucky. The small, shield-like legs that grew near its face, and were used to protect the vital parts of its head and face, closed up just right, blocking the strong light.
The Toru Beetle was somewhat affected, and the landing position was a little off. The Heavy Beetle clamped it with its full moon tail pincers and pressed it hard on its back.
The two complete the combination.
"Tsk, that's troublesome."
Gordon looked at Julius, "Can I do that back-rubbing move again? Can I lead them to the slope?"
Julius pursed his lips, "No, that beetle was seriously injured before, so I could use the terrain to spin around and kill it.
This thorough beetle was almost completely victorious, and the heavy beetle was on guard again, so that move was useless. "
"Then we can only leave it to Miss Sagittarius to grind slowly." Gordon said helplessly.
The Thor Beetle lying on the back of the Heavy Beetle was too high, and there was nothing he and Julius could do against it.
"Well, let's draw the attention of the heavy beetle and create a shooting opportunity for Nadia."
The two swordsmen separated again and flanked their opponent from different directions.
Nadia also started running. Sports shooting was her strength. Although the standing output was comfortable, it was too dangerous in front of the heavy beetle with water cannon breath.
Facing the three people and one cat who were moving separately, the heavy beetle hesitated for a moment, and finally settled on the largest one with the brightest "carapace" color.
Gordon cursed as he looked at the menacing heavy beetle charging towards him.
"Why is it me again?"
