Monster Hunt: Notes From a Hunter

  Chapter 27 Runaway

  Gordon's eyes were fixed on the male fire dragon hovering in the air, and he kept thinking about countermeasures.

  It's not too far from the camp, but it's almost impossible to run nearly a thousand meters on this unsheltered river beach under the attack of the male fire dragon.

   Another escape route is the fast-flowing river not far away.

   This is the wet season in early spring. If you can jump into the river, you can at least escape the pursuit of the male fire dragon. The latter who hates water is unlikely to jump into the river to catch yourself.

  Although it was also a life-gamble, wearing armor in the turbulent river, if he didn't pay attention, he would be drowned or crashed to death on the reef.

  But this may be the only way out.

   Having an idea, Gordon began to approach the river bank, and at the same time ordered the somewhat overwhelmed pig chop to run away if he had the opportunity.

  Xiong Fire Dragon seemed to have seen through his plan, turned around, and landed in front of him, right in the middle of his way to the river bank.

  Gordon had no choice but to put his right hand on the handle of the explosive knife behind his back, and confronted the male fire dragon.

  However, the male Charmander obviously has no interest in chasing him, its huge head is slightly raised, and flames and sparks are jumping between its beaks.

   "No, it's breathing!"

   Gordon, whose complexion changed drastically, once again tried his best to throw to one side.

A crimson fireball as big as a millstone blasted out from the huge beak of the male Charmander like a fired shell. The fireball crossed the river bank in the blink of an eye and hit a giant tree thick enough to hug several people at the edge of the forest. .

  The flames splashed amidst the roar.

  The old tree with hard texture and vines was blown into two by the fireball like a dry branch.

  Gordon only felt that his heartbeat missed a beat. If he hadn't avoided it in time just now, he might have been dead by now, right?

  This kind of powerful breath cannot be resisted by the Blue Velociraptor suit at all.

  The male fire dragon, which failed to attack again, roared, its dark yellow eyes locked on Gordon, its legs stepped on the ground, and the dragon's head wrapped in sharp thorns pointed directly at Gordon like the tip of a spear, and came in surprise.

  This kind of rampant self-sacrificing attack reminded him of the big wild boar king's pig attack. If this move is put on the male fire dragon, it will be a dragon chariot with several levels of power!

  Gordon is very clear that he must not panic in the face of this kind of attack.

  Estimating the speed of the dragon and the distance between the two, Gordon rushed out at the last second. While avoiding the dragon car, he still did not relax and rolled in a further direction again.

  Even the big wild boar king will stop and turn around to chase, but maybe the male fire dragon will not?

   Sure enough, the subsequent attack of the male fire dragon came.

   It flapped its wings and floated into the air. Immediately afterwards, it raised its feet and grabbed Gordon's back with its poisonous claws.

  Gordon finally miscalculated the attack range of the Charmander, even though he tried his best to avoid it, the claws of the Charmander still scratched his blue velociraptor armor, leaving a deep scar on his back.

  The purple-black traces centered on the wound and spread outward. This is the toxin of the fire dragon, far surpassing the poison of poisonous mushroom juice!

  Gordon could feel that the wound on his back lost the pain almost instantly, which was not a good sign.

  The feeling of paralysis quickly spread from his back to his whole body, the speed of blood flow suddenly increased, his eyes became congested, and blood poured out of his nostrils and throat uncontrollably.

   Limbs also began to become weak and disobedient. If this continued, it would be impossible for him to avoid the next attack of the male fire dragon.

   "Doo-doo-doo-doo-doo-doo~"

  The sharp sound of the horn flute suddenly sounded, temporarily attracting the attention of the male fire dragon.

  It's pork chop!

  Gordon didn't have time to think about other things, and with his gradually blurred consciousness, he took out the antidote that the instructor had emphasized countless times from the luggage as quickly as possible.

  With the infusion of the antidote, the toxins flowing in the blood were quickly decomposed, the sharp pain from the back wound returned, and the uncontrollable numbness of the limbs gradually disappeared.

  Although the body is still a little weak due to blood loss and residual toxins, most of the toxins have indeed been removed.

   "Pork chop! Run away through the ground!"

  Seeing that the pork chop was about to be chased by the male fire dragon, Gordon roared.

I was so scared that I wanted to run away, but I was only worried about Gordon, so I kept suppressing the fear of attracting the attention of the dragon, and immediately bent down, paws quickly planing the ground, and dug out a hole big enough for it to get into in a blink of an eye. The pothole, before the male fire dragon bit it, got into it.

  Feeling that he had been teased, the male Charmander roared again, flapped his wings and rose into the air, swooping in the direction Gordon was escaping from.

   Gordon, who was running desperately towards the river, heard the sound of dragon wings flapping from behind, turned around suddenly, and threw something pinched in his palm.

  Flashbang!

  The brief but dazzling glare exploded in front of Xionghuolong as the flash bomb exploded.

  With a terrified roar, the flying male fire dragon fell to the ground, it seemed that he couldn't get up clearly, and couldn't get up for a while.

  Gordon waved his arms excitedly, and then continued to flee desperately.

   A few seconds later, the male fire dragon stood up again. Its vision had not yet fully recovered, but it still roughly determined Gordon's position through its sense of smell.

  The gunpowder smoke rolled, and the blazing fireball burst out again.

   "Boom!"

  The fireball landed on the river beach seven or eight meters away from Gordon. The spreading shock wave made Gordon stagger, and the flying gravel scratched his cheek, but he was relieved.

  It's better than a fireball in the face, isn't it?

  However, what he didn't expect was that the fire dragon didn't fire a single breath this time, but burst it!

  Three fireballs sprayed out from its mouth one after another, forming a fan shape, covering the direction of Gordon's escape.

  The last fireball exploded directly on the blaster knife behind his back.

  Sulfur-smelling gunpowder smoke enveloped him, the scattered flames melted his armor, and the shock wave of the explosion even lifted him up, flying four or five meters away.

  He fell heavily on the gravel-covered river beach, and under the impact of the strong explosion, a large stream of blood spewed out from his mouth again.

   I don’t know whether to say it’s unfortunate or fortunate.

   This fireball can basically be regarded as blind to the male fire dragon who is temporarily blind.

   On the other hand, if it wasn't for the explosive knife hanging on his back that just blocked him, the fireball might have killed him directly.

  Lucky or unlucky? Gordon was not in the mood to think about this at this time.

  The turbulent river was rushing less than two or three meters in front of him, and the escape route was in front of him, but he almost lost the strength to even open his eyes.

  But at this moment, a familiar figure came out from the ground.

   It is the pork chop that was drilled into the ground before!

"Meow meow meow!"

  Pig Chop threw away the cat pick in his hand, and grabbed Gordon's shoulders with two small claws, screaming and dragging Gordon, who was several times his weight.

  If it had just arrived in Kokot Village a year ago, it was thin and thin, and it would have been impossible to drag the full-body armor and fell into a coma Gordon.

  However, the high-protein diet and rigorous exercise over the past year have made it grow to a level that is unmatched by its wild counterparts.

"Meow!!"

   While screaming with all their might, Pig Chop pulled Gordon into the rushing river together.

   Only the male fire dragon that lost its target was left, circling on the river, venting its boundless anger.
