The power of the heavy bed crossbow is not lower than Hilda's Dragon's Lost, not to mention that in order to fix it more firmly, Ancil specifically aimed at the main fin on the thick back of Lanlong.
Affected by the severe pain and pulling sensation from his back, Lan Long struggled violently.
Since its eyesight had not fully recovered, it was confused about the situation and thought that the hunter had climbed onto it in some way. In order to get rid of this feeling of involvement, Lanlong began to twist and roll with all his strength.
This is exactly what hunters want to see.
Following Lanlong's movements, the ropes woven with tough metal threads wrapped around its complex spinous fins. Within two or three seconds, all the rope loops were emptied, and the ropes suddenly tightened.
With a heart-wrenching "squeaking" sound, the wreckage of the airship connected to the end of the rope was also dragged up, and soon broke away from the constraints of gravity and was pulled into the air.
Ancier released the handle of the crossbow first, turned over and jumped off the wreckage. Gordon took two deep breaths, pointed at the struggling Lan Long in the air and laughed.
"Ha! Good shot, I'll make you fly!"
In the distance, Hilda also curled up her lips, but she knew that it was not yet time to feel relieved and happy.
"Why are you giggling? Quickly drink some medicine to sharpen your knife, force it away, harden it, drink ghost medicine and other things, this guy will go crazy again later!"
...
Under the heavy rain, the outer walls of the ruins, which already lacked points of leverage, were slippery and difficult to climb.
Clinging to rock cracks and grass roots, Hayata slipped down several times while climbing hard. With the help of pork chop and pandan, it took more than an hour to finally climb to the top of the ruins.
Hayata knelt on the edge of the top of the ruins, trying to adjust her breathing. Her arms were shaking, and she was obviously a little weak.
The sharp-eyed Xianglan noticed that there was blood seeping out of the former's gauntlet, and immediately ran over nervously.
"Hayata is injured, meow? Take off your gauntlet and check me, meow!"
Hayata gasped, sat up, and allowed Pandan and Pork Chop to remove her fingernails. There was a pool of flesh and blood between her fingers, and at least half of the nails were broken or even completely opened.
Xianglan hurriedly sprinkled a handful of life dust and was about to take out a knife and bandage to help debridement and bandage.
Hayata directly pulled off the broken and raised nails, put on the gauntlets again, and stood up with his knees.
"Meow!" Xianglan screamed, "This will cause infection, meow! The wound will stick to the lining of the handnail, meow!"
"It's okay, we'll talk about it later." Hayata drank a bottle of recovery medicine, thought about it, and then drank a bottle of force-moving medicine. She immediately felt that her condition had recovered a lot.
"Now is not the time to take your time and heal. Where are the cracks?"
"But Meow?"
"Which direction is the crack?" Hayata rarely used a harsh tone towards Pandan.
"...Meow over there." Xianglan lowered her ears aggrievedly and pointed to a location.
"Walk."
Hayata started running again, and Pig Chop gave Pandan a rare pat on the head as a gesture of comfort. Then he quickly followed, and Pandan also hurriedly threw her limbs upside down and chased after him.
The top of the ruins is lush with vegetation, like a small jungle, but the location of the cracks is not difficult to find.
One person and two cats walked quickly through the trees, and after ten minutes, they came to the huge crack.
As they expected, several huge rocks were pressing on the narrow crack of more than 20 meters, which was most likely the work of Lan Long.
Fortunately, there are gaps between the boulders. With Hayata's size, it is not difficult to pass through these gaps.
"Fortunately, it wasn't Gordon who came to meow, meow would have been stuck..." Pig Cho muttered.
Hayata took off the coil of rope from his backpack, found a place to fix it firmly, threw the other end of the rope into the crack, and then prepared to slide down the rope.
"Wait a minute, meow."
Pig Chop suddenly stopped Hayata's movements, "I'll go down and try it first. I'm not sure if the length of the rope is enough. If it's not long enough, Hayata can still pull me up. We'll find vines to lengthen it then." Rope meow.”
Hayata thought for a while and realized that this was indeed the best way, then nodded in agreement.
Zhupa adjusted the cat armor and weapons, jumped down the gap holding the rope, and slid down.
The rope kept shaking, and it took a while before it stopped completely.
Hayata and Xianglan put their heads to the crack, and the echoing voice of the pork chop came from far below, "There are still about six or seven meters left above the ground!"
Need to lengthen the lower rope? "
"Need not."
Without thinking, Hayata grabbed the rope and drilled directly into the crack. He crossed his feet and clamped the rope to stabilize his body, and quickly slid down.
"Meow meow meow?"
Xianglan was stunned outside the crack.
The height of six to seven meters is indeed not too high. Both hunters and Ellu can handle it. But the problem is, if this goes on, how to climb up?
Is Hayata usually so reckless?
"Nevermind, meow!"
Putting aside those things that could be considered later, Xianglan also held the rope and jumped down with her eyes closed.
The pork chop had broken away from the rope and fell to the ground smoothly. Hayata quickly slid to the end of the rope. She tightened her palms and feet, began to slow down, and then slid down little by little.
It is not until the legs and even the body are completely separated from the rope, and only the hands are grasping the end of the rope, that it comes to a complete stop.
This was to get closer to the ground. She could handle the height of six to seven meters, but she was not sure whether it would affect the explosives in the backpack.
Using height and arm length, this distance can be shortened by more than two meters, which is safer.
Hayata, who was holding on to the end of the rope, adjusted his posture, released his hands, bent forward and landed on the ground, standing firmly.
"Meow--!"
Xianglan had not had much experience with rappelling, so she made some mistakes in her movements and descended too fast. Fortunately, Hayata stretched out her hands in time to hug it.
"I'm scared to death, meow."
Pandan, who was put on the ground by Hayata, shook her beard. Seeing Hayata raising her feet, she was about to run. She quickly stopped her, "Wait a minute, meow! Hayata, there's something wrong with you, meow."
Hayata paused.
Xianglan continued: "I didn't light up the lanterns, meow, and I didn't ask Pig Chop to lead the way, meow. Hayata, do you know where to go, meow?"
Hayata was shocked when he heard this.
She had never entered this ruins, but she knew exactly which direction to go. This was illogical.
"I was affected by that aura, meow."
Pig Chop looked at Hayata with some worry, "I and Gordon didn't pay attention to Meow at that time. We only realized Meow after listening to the professor's words and recalling it later."
Hayata took a deep breath and forced herself to calm down.
"Sorry, I was too impatient."
She removed the kerosene lamp hanging from the package and lit the wick with a flint. The warm light dispelled the surrounding darkness.
This relieved their tense emotions a little.
"Let's confirm the target."
Hayata held up the wind lantern and said to Pandan and Pig Chop: "Our only purpose of entering the ruins is to destroy the head, and other ideas and purposes other than this must be eliminated.
Every few minutes, you can ask each other to make sure there is no obvious deviation in the direction of each other's thinking. "
"Good meow."
"I know, nya."
Hayata nodded, "Repeat, what is our goal of entering the ruins, count to three and say it together, one, two, three..."
"Blow up the Forbidden Skull."
"Blow that head up, nya."
"Blow it up meow meow!"
"Okay, Pork Chop will lead the way, let's set off."
"Okay, meow...but, where is this meow? I've never been to this meow before..."
"...?"
