It should be because the "physical condition" of the heavy beetle is very good. After the combination, the heavy beetle's movement speed is even faster than before.
Especially when colliding in a straight line.
When the beetle's wings vibrated at full speed, they not only helped the heavy beetle share most of its weight, but even felt like it was carrying the latter forward quickly.
Gordon suspected that if the beetle tried harder, it could even fly directly carrying the heavy beetle.
You know, the weight of the "Heavyweight Empress" is likely to exceed one hundred tons. Considering the size of the beetle, the flying ability of this beetle monster is really strong.
Gordon ran for his life with all his strength, while Julius chased after the heavy beetle.
Unfortunately, the carapace on the hind legs and tail of the heavy beetle were very thick. Even if Julius attacked repeatedly, the heavy beetle still looked indifferent.
After being driven away for a long time, Gordon also became a little angry, and he used a trick he often used to deal with monsters that like to collide.
He began to approach the rock wall, and when the heavy beetle was about to rush in front of him, he suddenly jumped to the side, narrowly escaping the attack and at the same time tempting the heavy beetle to hit the wall.
This move was indeed very effective. The heavy beetle, which could not hold back its feet under the assistance of the beetle's acceleration, hit the rock wall with its head. The powerful repulsive force made it dizzy.
The Toru Beetle, which was used as a charging horn, was even more unbearable. Its huge horn pierced directly into the rock wall. Gordon was very doubtful that its neck would be completely broken by this impact.
However, the impact resistance of exoskeleton organisms is still stronger than that of vertebrates.
When the heavy beetle twisted its body vigorously and pulled the thru beetle out of the rock wall, the latter was at least still alive.
It's just that the vibrating buzz of the wings is obviously not as powerful as before.
Come again?
Gordon thought eagerly.
Maybe if they hit it again like this, the Thor Beetle would be killed by the Heavy Beetle without them having to take action.
Julius came running over quickly.
After confirming that Gordon was okay, he breathed a sigh of relief.
The scene where Gordon caused the heavy beetle to hit the wall just now almost scared his heart out.
Although this trick is indeed easy to use, looking at it from another perspective, it is just a gamble with your life.
Most of the monsters that like to collide, from the two-star Big Boar King to the five-star Monoceros, have at least "long" body shapes.
In other words, their impact surface is very narrow.
If you roll sideways and fly, the probability of avoiding it safely is still very high.
If the avoidance distance is not far enough and you are hit, as long as you avoid the most dangerous fangs and horns, and if you are hit properly, there will generally not be much of a problem, at least it will not be fatal.
But the heavy beetle is different. This guy's body is "wide" and its collision surface is terrifyingly large.
Even if it escapes the "attack angle" of the heavy beetle, it is very likely to be kicked by the thick and long hammer-like legs.
Let alone standing in front of a wall.
Even if you avoid the front and avoid being squeezed into a pie, are you still not afraid of being kicked to death by a heavy beetle?
If something happens to him, what will he tell his master when he goes back?
——I brought back the sharp horn of the beetle, but my junior brother is gone.
Julius, who was thinking a lot at the moment when the heavy beetle hit the wall, glared at Gordon fiercely.
"Don't mess around again!"
After saying that, Julius quickly drank a bottle of forcible medicine, then directly turned on the ghost form and rushed towards the heavy beetle.
He wanted to draw the heavy beetle's attention back to himself.
In terms of instantaneous destructive ability, as a dual sword user, I may not be able to compete with Gordon, a large sword user, but in terms of speed and agility, I can surpass Gordon in a big way.
It's better to deal with heavy beetles yourself.
Gordon laughed dryly, realizing that he had been a little reckless before.
This kind of thing can succeed a hundred times, but if it fails once, the price is too high for anyone to bear.
Julius used a set of gorgeous flurry of moves to attract the hatred of the heavy beetle from the front.
Gordon, who didn't know what to do for a moment, had no choice but to come to a relatively safe position behind the monster, swung the explosive knife and played with the flick knife like a blacksmith.
Maybe it can do some damage?
It would be great if you were holding the Male Fire Dragon Flame Sword. Not only was it sharp enough to break through the defense of the heavy beetle, but the additional fire damage was also very effective. How could it be as passive as it is now?
Suddenly, I understood Hayata's pain when facing the Blue Fire Dragon with a slashing sword.
Gordon is doubting life, but Julius and Nadia like the current fighting rhythm very much.
The Thor Beetle, whose physical strength was not its strong point, could not hold on for long under the continuous bombardment of the light ballistae. Even if the heavy Beetle's speed increased, it would be difficult for the Heavy Beetle to pose a threat to Julius who had taken the force-moving drug.
The successful hunt of the fourth thru beetle is just around the corner.
However, something unexpected happened again.
Maybe it was because he felt the powerlessness and weakness of the Toru Beetle, or maybe it was because he felt tired from the previous continuous collisions and subsequent battles.
The heavy beetle suddenly stretched out its full moon tail and tore off the beetle lying on its back. Regardless of the latter's muscle reaction struggle, it directly stuffed it into its mouthparts and started chewing.
Green blood and carapace fragments flew everywhere.
Looking at this mind-numbing scene, Julius and Gordon were both stunned, and even Nadia's crossbow shooting paused briefly.
Even if we knew in advance that heavy beetles have the habit of preying on male individuals, we still couldn't help but be shocked when we actually saw this scene with our own eyes.
If you use it as a tool and throw it away after use, then eating it after use is considered waste recycling?
Looking at the carapace fragments scattered on the ground, Gordon swallowed and looked at Julius, "Is this a successful hunt?"
Julius's face was also a little ugly.
Apart from anything else, there was not much carcass left for this dead beetle that could be stripped.
"Forget it." Julius squeezed out from between his teeth, "The purpose of the mission is to reduce the number of thru beetles. Although the materials cannot be obtained, this one must be included in the hunting number."
Gordon shrugged.
His attitude is relatively casual. Hunting one more and one less is not something worth worrying about for him.
The heavy beetle with its full stomach swayed, as if it wanted to turn around and leave, and it was not as aggressive as before.
"Retreat for now."
Julius shouted softly, eyes watching the movements of the heavy beetle, and began to retreat.
Gordon glanced at him and slowly backed away until he reached a safe distance, then turned around, quickened his pace, and left quickly.
After the two swordsmen and Pork Chop withdrew from the battlefield, Nadia, who was in charge of rearguard action in the distance, began to evacuate.
On the way out, she loaded a dye bomb into the fire dragon cannon and fired it at a position close to the crossbow's maximum range.
The heavy beetle that was hit by the dye bomb roared, with steam rising from its body, looking left and right for the target, but found nothing.
Sky Mountain, which had been busy for a long time, temporarily returned to calm.
