Chapter 1559: Blazing Flames
Following the marks left by the hunting cats, the four members of the reconnaissance team walked quickly.
I have to say that in the absence of map guidance, the efficiency of the operation was indeed greatly improved with the help of the hunting cats.
If all goes well, they will arrive at the central area of the ancient city before midnight.
Under the cover of night, there might be a chance to confirm the location of the nest and the target's current status without alerting the target.
Of course, this is just an ideal situation.
Although there is an invisible cloak to conceal the breath, no one can guarantee whether this thing will be effective against the legendary "taboo" like the black dragon.
If discovered, given the temperament of the black dragon recorded in the literature, being attacked is almost inevitable.
A trace of worry flashed in the eyes of the team leader Amos.
At this moment, a burst of fire suddenly rose in the distant sky, and even the dark night sky without stars or moon was illuminated into a hellish color.
The hunters looked up involuntarily.
Under the blazing night sky, a dark shadow can be vaguely seen.
And the moment their eyes fell on the shadow, a creepy sense of sight came over them.
At this moment, Amos felt his heart skipped a beat.
After a brief moment of stiffness, he said in a low voice, "We've been discovered, find a place to hide!
Wrap up your invisibility suit and suppress your breath!"
"Go there!" The spearman Pika pointed at a dilapidated brick and stone building not far away.
Several people were about to run over there, but at this moment Amos suddenly pulled Lieyan.
"About 300 meters back from the direction we came from, there is another suitable hiding place. Go there, and don't come out even if a fight breaks out."
Seeing that Lieyan was still a little stunned, Amos pushed her and said, "Go!"
Then he caught up with Bika and Ahun and ran towards the ruined attic together.
Lieyan certainly understood what Amos was thinking. He gritted his teeth, rode on his hound, and rushed towards the hidden spot behind.
Amos slid into the entrance that seemed particularly low after it was half collapsed, and looked around after entering the building.
The building is not large, similar to an ordinary residential house. Although the walls are tilted, the roof is collapsed, and the interior is covered with dust, it is still a good hiding place.
"There's a basement here!" Ahhun asked in surprise, "Wouldn't it be better to go down there?"
"No." Amos rejected it decisively, "You saw the fire just now. Facing such a large-scale fire breath, hiding in the basement is useless.
The oxygen will be burned out, and people trapped in the sea of fire will be suffocated to death.
We have to hide near the entrances and exits. Once we are discovered and attacked, we must rush out of the entrances and exits immediately. Only in open areas will we have a chance to fight back. "
Ahun and Bika looked at each other and nodded heavily.
The three of them, wrapped in invisibility clothing, came to the entrance and half-knelt down, trying to calm their heartbeats and restrain their breathing.
As for the fact that Lieyan was not with them, Bika and the others did not ask.
Everyone knows that you can't put all your eggs in one basket.
In this torment of waiting for trial, time seems especially long.
Amos counted the seconds silently. One minute, three minutes, ten minutes passed, and still nothing happened.
There was no demonstrative roar, no whistling of dragon wings stirring the air, and even the malicious aura from before disappeared.
Everything around them was so peaceful, as if their previous experiences were just illusions.
But no one dared to really relax, and as time went on, their nerves became more and more tense.
High in the sky, an evil dragon with pure black scales was hovering with its wings flapping.
The cold dragon eyes stared at the earth.
The presence of those invaders disappeared.
No, it did not disappear, it just hid. It could still sense that there were some "foreign objects" in this area.
It had no interest in landing on the ground and finding those insects one by one.
"laugh--"
Flames burst out from its nostrils and between its teeth. The pure black dragon took a deep breath, and its chest, which was emitting a metallic luster, swelled up.
The next second, boundless dragon flames splashed down, turning an area of thousands of square meters into a sea of fire.
This level of attack was as easy for it as breathing. As the breath continued, dragon flames hot enough to melt steel spread in all directions.
Covered by the red lotus, bricks, stones, air, and even the earth were all burning violently.
The dragon flame spread rapidly, and was about to engulf the building where the hunters were hiding.
Amos and the other two could no longer wait.
"Hold your breath and rush out!"
They quickly drank the walking-enhancing drug and the hardening drug, put a pill of ancient secret medicine in their mouths, threw their invisible clothes aside, and put on the fire-resistant clothes prepared in advance.
The moment the three people came out of their hiding place, the black dragon in the sky cast its gaze over to them.
It adjusted its direction and took another deep breath, the dragon flame gathering in its mouth.
"Follow me!"
Pica roared, raised his spear and shield, and charged at full speed.
Amos followed closely behind, and Ahun, who was at the end of the team, also raised his large shield to block the high temperature and residual flames coming from behind.
After a desperate run, he finally managed to escape to a relatively open area before being surrounded by the dragon's fire breath.
There were dots of red light flashing on their armor.
Before setting off, they inlaid a large number of fire-resistant beads on their armor. If it were not for these fire-resistant beads and the protection provided by the specially selected high-fire-resistant armor they wore.
The residual heat from the dragon flame radiation alone is enough to severely burn human skin.
The three of them turned around and looked up into the sky.
Pika roared loudly at the black dragon that was looking down at them.
As a spear user, the first priority after the battle begins is to do everything possible to attract the monster's attention to yourself.
Amos took out the flare and fired it immediately.
The flare flew high into the sky, and the red light was particularly conspicuous in the night sky.
While sending the signal, he covertly made a "hide" gesture towards the place where Lieyan was hiding.
Then he drew out the Silver Flying Dragon Blade and shouted, "Disperse! Fight with all your might and try out as many of its movement habits and weaknesses as possible.
Bring back the information!"
The last half of the sentence was directed to Lieyan, who had not yet been discovered by the Black Dragon.
The moment the dark evil dragon descended and dragon flames gushed out, Amos knew in his heart that the three of them were in great danger this time.
"Try this!" Ahun yelled and threw a flash bomb.
As expected, the flash of light did not have any effect on the Black Dragon, but his goal had been achieved.
The black dragon's gaze fell on him.
As a rare double-defender team, he and Bika have always taken turns as the main forwards.
While one person holds the monster back, the other seizes the opportunity to attack.
Now they have the eight-star swordsman Amos in their team, and their offense has been improved by more than one level.
However, something happened that made them despair.
The black dragon hovering in the sky descended a little, but still maintained a distance of more than ten meters from the ground.
It just hovered in the air, looking at the helpless swordsmen, with a hint of human mockery in its eyes.
Just then, a figure came rushing over.
Lieyan rode on the Fang Hound and jumped on the broken walls everywhere around him.
With a low growl from the Fang Hound, it leaped into the air six or seven meters high with flames.
Then, Lieyan threw out the Kinsect and continued to fly upwards, and in the blink of an eye it arrived in front of the black dragon.
The black dragon was obviously dazed. It had killed many hunters before, but this was the first time it had encountered a hunter who could "fly".
Taking advantage of this flaw, [Heaven/Heaven] (Chaos Black Eclipse Dragon Dual Swords) flashed out of the scabbard, and Lieyan simultaneously activated the demon transformation, twisting his body and slashing the black dragon's head with a sword.
Ghosts dancing in the air!
The black dragon came to his senses and moved very quickly, turning his head and biting.
However, the bite was empty.
With the force of the ghost's air dance attack, Lieyan's body jumped up a little higher again.
While avoiding the black dragon's bite, he slashed several times with the sword at a speed that was difficult for ordinary people to see, and adjusted his body posture.
The next second, her whole body spun at high speed, turning into a storm of sharp blades, swirling from the black dragon's head, neck, back, all the way to the tail.
Spinning in the air and slashing continuously, dancing wildly in circles!
Under the ultra-high frequency slashing, the dragon attribute energy hidden in the blade bursts out continuously.
The black dragon howled in pain and fell back to the ground.
At the same time, the flames that landed on the ground turned around to unload the force. The friction between the shin guards and the ground produced large sparks. "Ziz--" the ground slid back for a long distance before the inertia of the whirling dance was completely removed.
Red arcs of electricity jumped violently on the gold and black double blades.
Lie Yanzhen shook his numb arms and grinned, "First piece of information, the dragon attribute is effective!"
