Monster Hunt: Notes from a Hunter

Chapter 1606 [Wasteland Claw 10] Wasteland Claw

Chapter 1606 [Wasteland Claw 10] Wasteland Claw

He took a risky leap and slid down the steep slope of the sand dune, narrowly avoiding another attack from the dragon.

Huali, no longer able to maintain her body posture, rolled almost all the way to the bottom of the sand dune, and was unable to stand up for a while.

On the top of the sand dune, the dragon looked down at her condescendingly.

It was also panting.

It first fought a fierce battle with the Axe-Tailed Dragon, in which it was somewhat injured. It also chased and bit the hunter for most of the night, and now it was also feeling tired.

If it were an ordinary monster, it would have given up long ago.

Unless it is to protect the nest and cubs, it is a waste of energy to spend so much effort chasing a "small creature".

However, for this dragon, hunting prey is no longer something to worry about.

It never lacks food, and fighting is more like fun to it.

While dealing with it, Huali threw several flash bombs to buy some time, but at the same time it also completely angered the dragon.

Even if this hunt is meaningless to both parties, it must catch up with her and bite her to death.

Her vision went dark. Driven by the will to survive, Huali gritted her teeth, supported her body with her hands, and staggered to her feet.

She reached into her tool bag, took out the last bottle of walking potion, and drank it all in one gulp before the dragon on top of the dune leaped down to chase her.

This time, even after taking the potion, I no longer had that feeling of being full of energy.

The so-called walking-enhancing drugs are not omnipotent. They will not make people gain physical strength out of thin air. They just make the body less prone to fatigue through certain stimulating ingredients.

When a person is losing a lot of blood and his energy cannot be replenished, the effect of the walking drug is very limited.

But... at least it can support her for about a quarter of an hour.

Once the effect of the medicine wears off, it will really be over.

As if to get rid of the double image in front of her eyes, Huali shook her head vigorously, then tried to urge her heavy and stiff legs like stones to run again.

"boom!"

Before she could run a few steps, the Honglong on the top of the sand dune, after taking a few breaths, jumped down and pounced on the place where she had been standing before.

He leaped out once again in a panic, and continued to roll forward after landing, avoiding the pounce while trying to increase the distance between the two as much as possible in order to avoid the subsequent attacks from the Boom Dragon.

A huge claw covered in brown and red blood swung past her from behind.

This time, the hunter, whose physical strength was at its limit, failed to create a long enough distance by rolling, and the claws landed on her leg armor.

The indestructible claws tore through the armor, leaving a bloody wound on her thigh.

The unbearable pain caused Huali's muscles to spasm violently as she stood up. Her knees went weak and she almost fell to the ground.

But she knew very well that if she revealed a flaw at this moment, she would be killed by the giant claws and bloody mouth in the next second.

He growled and tensed his muscles, trying to forcibly stop the movement of sitting down, but because he used too much force, his whole body jumped towards the direction of the giant claws of the thunder dragon behind him like a crooked spring.

Just as he was about to be torn to pieces by the sharp claws, his body moved before his brain.

She started to exert force from her waist, twisting her body while flipping backwards, avoiding being hit head-on by the giant claws.

The claw tip grazed her side, opening a new wound, and she accidentally bypassed the giant claw's blockade and got under the dragon's neck.

It is difficult for the claws of the Boom Dragon to exert force in this position, which is relatively safe from a certain angle, provided that one can cope with the bloody mouth of the Boom Dragon that is full of sharp teeth and can easily crush rocks.

It was too late to retreat at this point, so Huali decided to take a gamble.

She gritted her teeth, swung her double blades to stimulate her fighting spirit and transformed herself into a demon. Then, before Honglong could react, she aimed at his relatively soft chin and throat and launched a flurry of attacks.

Ghosts are dancing!

Blood splattered everywhere.

Compared with ordinary dragons, the special thing about this dragon is its mutated sharp claws and extremely amazing muscle strength.

But when it comes to the defensive capabilities of the scales and their own weaknesses, there is actually not much difference.

The attack on the weak points of the head and neck had a good effect. Caught off guard, Honglong was knocked back by her counterattack with the Demonic Dance.

Huali was in high spirits and was about to take advantage of the situation to give chase, but her movement forward suddenly became staggering.

The previous claw attack from the Boom Dragon cut off part of the muscles in her thigh, seriously affecting her movements and steps.

Ruined.

Huali felt a chill in her heart.

By the time Honglong adjusted himself, it would be very difficult for her to launch a head-on attack, and the wound on her leg also cut off her way to escape.

Is that the end?

Huali held the two swords tightly, ready to launch a counterattack at the last moment of his life.

But at this moment, a burst of hearty laughter reached her ears.

"You can still repel the wild hook claw in this state, the little girl did a great job!"

A figure wearing black armor and covered with wild battle patterns leaped down from the top of the dune, accelerated using the steep slope of the dune, and leaped up when approaching the bottom of the dune.

Along with the huge hammer in his hand, it turned into a dark whirlwind and attacked the raised dragon head of the Honglong.

"Roar--"

"boom!"

The huge hammer with amazing power hit the side of its head hard, causing its head to tilt violently to the side. The whole body staggered to the side, and the roar that was halfway through was also interrupted.

"Lady Mamamaridan?!" Huali couldn't help but exclaimed.

"Go away and heal your wounds!" Marydan picked up [Dahumaru] and twisted her neck which was thicker than her head.

"This guy is called Wild Hook Claw. You youngsters are too naive to deal with him!"

This was not the first time she had fought against the second-ranked dragon that had earned the nickname "Wild Hook Claw".

"Hey, the last time was in Goldra, and the last time was in the Ruins Plain. This time you came to our desert?" Marydan drank a bottle of ghost medicine and said with a smile.

Her tone sounded relaxed, but she stared closely at her opponent's eyes, not daring to relax for a moment.

For more than a decade, the mission to defeat this "Wild Hook Claw" has been high on the guild's list.

There were too many elite teams attempting the hunt to be counted on one hand, including some top hunting groups composed of top hunters.

Since it can survive until now, there is no need to say more about the result of the crusade.

There was even more than one high-ranking hunter who was killed by the pair of giant blue claws.

If it hadn't rarely actively attacked human villages and had no fixed territory, it would have always wandered around and was hard to find, plus there had been a shortage of manpower due to the monster unrest in recent years.

The Great Elder might even send out top hunting groups like Silver Edge, Pen Head, and Cross to attack it.

Throwing the empty medicine bottle aside and feeling the power rising in her body, Marydan prepared for battle.

Huang Gouzhua seemed to recognize the dark guy in front of him.

It turned around, and the boiling dragon blood that had faded due to fatigue once again rushed into its veins, dyeing its bright front paws and neck a scarlet color that symbolized danger.

“Gahhhhhhh——!”

With a violent roar, Huang Hook Claw launched the dragon chariot without reservation.

Mary narrowed her eyes, and when she noticed something, she bared her fangs and grinned, "Ha! So your condition isn't that good?"

As she spoke, she stomped her thick thighs, and her muscles tensed like bowstrings.

Facing the wild hook claw that was rushing towards him, he began to accumulate strength.
