As the Longshi ship got closer and closer to the solitary peak, the people on the ship became more and more nervous. All non-combatants entered the cabin, and the hunters on the deck held their weapons and watched each one with vigilance. direction.
However, the "comet" never appeared.
The Longshi ship slowly approached the lonely peak, and the helmsman yelled: "It can't work! The air pressure is too low and the power is insufficient. We can only go here!"
The captain of the investigation team looked up and saw that there were still two to three hundred meters left before the summit.
"Let the boiler room be overloaded and pressurized, and see if you can coil it up!"
"etc."
Gordon stopped the captain of the investigation team, "The Sky Comet Dragon has not appeared yet, and it is not time to risk overloading the boiler. Let's anchor down and I will lead a few people to climb up and carry the wounded down."
The captain of the investigation team hesitated for a moment, and finally nodded, "Please, Mr. Gordon, please be more careful."
Several anchor ropes specially used to dock and fix the Dragon Sense Ship were launched and nailed into the rock wall, binding the Dragon Sense Ship firmly to the side of the mountain.
Gordon asked Ancil and Agaxi to stay behind the Dragon Sense Ship, while he jumped off the Dragon Sense Ship with a few skilled hunters and began to climb towards the peak.
Rock climbing at such a high altitude was very strenuous. Fortunately, the hunters were all in terrible shape. After dozens of minutes, they finally climbed to the top.
As he climbed onto the summit platform, Gordon quickly scanned the surroundings and found no danger, which made him feel slightly relieved.
The ground is full of ravines, deep pits and broken rocks, and no one knows what kind of fierce battles they have gone through.
"There they are!" a hunter shouted, pointing to a large pit in the distance.
Gordon and others quickly ran over and came to the edge of the big pit. When they saw the appearance of several hunters resting in the pit, they realized that the situation was worse than they expected.
One spear user died, and his armor was covered with traces of melting. One of the other three people lost his entire left arm and fell into a deep coma.
The other two were definitely seriously injured, but their limbs were not mutilated.
"Senior Hilda?!" Gordon slid down the pit and came to a person. After seeing the person's face clearly, he exclaimed in shock.
Hilda gave him a weak smile, but had no strength to speak.
"Pork Chop, help them deal with their injuries urgently. We'll carry them down and fix them with cloth straps. Be careful with your movements!"
Gordon's nerves were tense as he carried the wounded man down the rock.
If the Sky Comet Dragon attacks at this time, they will be unable to fight back.
Fortunately, the worst did not happen. They successfully returned to the Dragon Sense ship with the wounded, and then the wounded were quickly sent to the infirmary.
The captain of the investigation team was obviously very nervous. After picking up the wounded, he immediately ordered the Dragon Sense ship to pull anchor and set sail. No matter what the follow-up plan was, he had to leave the most dangerous area first.
That night, three high-ranking hunters, Gordon, Ancier and Agahi, received the message and came to the infirmary.
Except for the seriously injured man who lost an arm and lost too much blood and was still in a coma, Hilda and the other hunter with "less serious injuries" had already woken up.
The captain of the investigation team is already here, exchanging something with the two people on the hospital bed, which seems to be the content of the previous investigation.
Due to the casualties of their companions, their expressions were somewhat gloomy, but their spirits were still good.
"Hilda-senpai."
"Instructor."
"Senior Earl."
Agaxi seemed to know the other high-ranking sledgehammer and greeted him politely.
"Hoo ho, little Gordon, I didn't expect to be rescued by you this time."
"Okay, time is tight, let's talk about the pleasantries later."
The sledgehammer named Earl said in a rather urgent tone, "Sky Comet Dragon, that's what it's called, right? The Sky Comet Dragon may attack again at any time, and I have a lot of information that I must tell you in advance, so as not to eat it like us. Insufficient loss.
Scholar, please synchronize your records and use Peregrine Falcon to share this information with the guild as soon as possible. "
"Okay." The captain of the investigation team took out his notebook and prepared to record it.
"First of all, that guy is not weak to dragons. This is one of the biggest mistakes we have made. We are currently unable to confirm the weakness attributes of Sky Comet Dragon. For now, purely physical weapons are the best choice."
Gordon pursed his lips.
In the past two days, they came to the same conclusion through "archaeology". It would have been better if they could have obtained that information a week or two earlier.
Hilda answered: "Its flying ability is very strong, it does not flap its wings conventionally, nor does it control the airflow like Lanlong.
Instead, it obtains extremely amazing propulsion by continuously ejecting high-temperature and high-pressure dragon energy from its wings.
I just heard a young scholar mention 'Dragon Qi', which should refer to this kind of dragon-attributed energy that erupts in the form of high-temperature and high-pressure gas. "
"Like a rocket bomb?" Pig Chop found a comparison object.
Hilda had seen Pork Chop's rocket bomb before, nodded, and said with a wry smile: "Absolutely, you can imagine it as a rocket bomb that far exceeds the size and speed of the rocket bomb.
At the same time, it can freely adjust the speed and flight attitude, change directions flexibly, and fly for a long time.
It will also apply this advantage to the dragon car, which is very tricky. "
"Outrageous Meow"
"Compared with other ancient dragon species, the Sky Comet Dragon is not too big, similar to the male Fire Dragon. The weak points should be on the head, neck and chest, and the other parts of the carapace are much tougher.
Our battle strategy at that time was to attack the wings as much as possible.
Most of its attack moves are related to the behavior of spraying dragon energy. If its flying ability can be abolished, the danger level will be reduced by at least 60 to 70%. "
Speaking of this, Hilda paused, "It's a pity that we failed. We tried our best to attack its left wing, and indeed caused quite serious damage to its left wing.
But it can actually fly by jetting dragon energy from one wing, which is completely beyond our expectations. "
Gordon and others looked at each other.
It's common knowledge among hunters that destroying a wing can prevent a monster from flying.
Can you fly with one wing? !
Earl added: "Its wings are not only used for flying, they seem to be folded structures that can extend forward a considerable distance, even reaching nearly two body positions, and are very flexible.
So be sure to watch out for its wing claws thrusting, slapping, and sweeping. To make an inappropriate comparison, it's a bit like a combination of the sickle claws of a general sickle crab and the long tail of a velociraptor. "
Gordon nodded in understanding while thinking quickly about how to respond to such an attack.
"Well, these are the most basic parts of fighting the Sky Comet Dragon, and the next part is the real 'dangerous' part."
"Are these just the basics?!" The captain of the investigation team couldn't help exclaiming in a low voice.
Earl glanced at the young man and said, "If it were just the above, a team composed of one eight-star hunter and three seven-star hunters would not have to pay such a painful price even if it suffered from insufficient intelligence. It was just barely Fight it off.”
"What we are going to say next is very important, so be sure to remember it well." Hilda, who was always smiling, looked more serious than ever at this time.
"Absolutely do not fight the Sky Comet Dragon in a small area, such as the dragon's nest on the top of the mountain. This is information obtained with Odd's sacrifice and Yadunich's arm.
Try to choose an area that is wide enough and has many bunkers as the battlefield.
That guy's attack range is really too big."
