Chapter 17: The Battle Begins

The camera pans back to President Zigna and his hunting team, who have learned the location of the nest from the investigators, who are now on their way at full speed. Pen Γ— fun Γ— Pavilion www. biquge。 info But it seems that the location is relatively far away, and a team of people, a team of high-level hunters has been driving for more than two hours and has not yet reached the destination. It is very physically exhausting to rush at full speed like this, and President Zigna himself knows that after all, he doesn't have much physical strength now.

"Let's rest for a while before we go." The president took out the food prepared for the hunters from the hunter's satchel, found a random place to sit down, and motioned for everyone else to rest together, "There is still about half an hour to reach the destination, so rest first to ease your strength." ”

There is still half a sentence after Zigna's words, and after getting there, he may not have time to rest, I am afraid that he will have to go to war with unknown monsters. But even if Zigner didn't say it, everyone knew about it.

The break was short, and the hunters made the most of it to get back to a better state. Without packing up, the team began to move towards the lair again.

This barren place is the original lair of the water beasts, and generally speaking, monsters will not choose such a barren place as the territory of the entire clan. There is only one reason, and it is the natural predators who made this place like this.

"Ahh Look! I don't know which of the hunters in the squad suddenly shouted, but with the hunter's character, he couldn't have shouted at such a juncture if it hadn't been for something that surprised him so much, and President Zigna and the other hunters had to look at the hunter who was shouting, and follow the direction he was pointing...... It's a monster.

The monster here does not refer to the kind of creatures that we commonly see in this world called monsters, but real 'monsters'. A male fire dragon, no, it can only be said to be a monster with both a male fire dragon body and a human head.

――――

"Sphinix?" Zigna muttered that the Sphinix he was talking about was a monster with a human head and a beast body in the mythology of the continent, and the description was just like the monster in front of them. However, they are not naΓ―ve enough to think that this monster is the mythical Sphinix.

The monster in front of Ziggna is a kind of artificial research creature collectively called 'device', and the organization that researched this creature is the 'new wheel', the new wheel is an organization that is manipulated by transplanting monster organs into the human body to become a "device", and what is the purpose of the new wheel At present, the upper echelons of the kingdom military and the hunter guild have not yet reached a result. But they wouldn't be stupid enough to think that this organization researched this creature just for research, and even so, this kind of research violates the rules of nature and draws the bottom line of ethics.

This organization must be extinguished! This is the consensus reached by the kingdom's military and the Hunters' Guild.

This monster with a human head and a fire dragon body is actually only the first stage of the organization's research, which is only based on the records and experimental materials about the "instrument" obtained by the leader of the organization, and then the first generation of "instrument" was born, which they called "beginning".

This stage is a pity for them, because according to the description in the record, the original intention of the "device" was to allow people to control the monster's body to achieve the ability of people to have both human intelligence and monster destructive power, but the recorded information is incomplete as if it has been interrupted. The incompleteness of the records was later confirmed by the leader of the organization, and after the successful transplantation, the sanity of the "instrument" would be swallowed up for a period of time, and it began to destroy everything in sight, including the "instrument" itself.

――――

Then, the monster in front of Zigna is the 'weapon' that has been devoured by reason, but Zigna and his team don't know it. They believe that this monster is so brutal in the first place.

The 'instrument' in front of him, which was pointed at by the hunter, was biting at the corpse of a herbivorous dragon, which was supposed to be a human head. I don't know if it started to mutate after the transplant or if it was originally like this, but the teeth of this originally human head are particularly sharp, and the tiger teeth are much more prominent than the other teeth.

This kind of appearance can't be regarded as a human head. This thought permeated the hearts of every hunter who saw what was in front of them. Some hunters' hands have begun to tremble, not because of the fear in their hearts, but because of a kind of excitement from the heart, like them, who often hovered on the edge of life and death, the more terrifying and dangerous the front, the more excited they can be, bringing them the feeling that they are still living in this world.

After being discovered by the hunters for so long, the monster finally realized the existence of the hunters, stopped the herbivore that was biting, and roared at the hunters in front of it with its bloody mouth, which was like a warning roar. The roar confused their judgment of the monster in front of them, as if the monster had a mind of its own, and now it was trying to drive them away.

But if that's the case, they can't figure out if it's true, this monster is just a 'machine' that has been devoured by reason, a machine that only remembers how to kill.

The battle has undoubtedly begun, with only the monsters left to kill on the one hand, and the hunters who have to draw their weapons in order to restore the ecological environment here.

This is the contradiction, and any battle is started because of the contradiction, the contradiction between one side and the other, and the contradiction between oneself and oneself. It's not just humans, it's a habit that every living thing has, yes, it's a habit, a bad habit that no one knows about but can't break.

――――

The monster's head, which was originally a human, emitted a pure roar that only monsters can emit, and this roar made the hunters feel a sense of crisis, and they all drew their weapons, the iceberg bow, the hunting flute rainforest instrument, the spear spirit gun, and the warhammer giant's mallet. Then there's Chiron, the spear and heavy musket of President Zigner.

The monster rushed towards the hunters, and it seemed that the monster's movements were still the same as those of the original owner, the male fire dragon. As long as you know the way the monsters fight, for this team of high-level hunters, the battle will be much easier. The hunters move according to their respective weapons, the spear hunter is at the front, the warhammer hunter is not far behind the spear hunter waiting for the opportunity to give the monster huge damage, and the bow hunter follows the position of the two people in front of him and changes his pace, looking for an attack point in the gap to give the monster a blow, the main responsibility of the hunting flute hunter is to play a variety of war songs for his teammates to make his teammates' single combat ability increase.

The hunters present have a very good tacit understanding, although they are not long-term hunting partners, but the strength has reached their level, many things can be integrated, and after running in so many times, there will not be too much error in cooperation. The weapons they use are also well-chosen and can be well matched, and at this point, they can proudly handle the onslaught of all monsters.
