18. Fierce battle against the Great Thief Dragon

The ancient trees are in the lower layer of the forest, and the ancient trees are towering and the deep forest is silent.

Under the layers of branches and leaves that the sun does not shine on, there is an irrepressible vigorous vitality, and the breath of life is mellow and far-reaching, fat but not greasy!

"Hey, I baked it, don't finish it, leave me some!"

Fichte snatched the roasted dragon leg that Barn had grabbed in his hand, and the thigh of the herbivorous dragon had turned from bright red blood to golden yellow and sparkling after a lot of seasoning and a long time of roasting!

"Hmm! I didn't expect your craftsmanship to be so good, glitter cooking! Having been robbed of a leg, Barn was unimpressed, still nibbling on the herbivorous dragon leg in his other hand.

"By the way, wouldn't it be nice for the two of us to hide in this kind of place and be lazy to eat, and let Alyssa hunt alone?"

"Well, it's a little bit bad." Fichte took a big bite of flesh and said indistinctly, "Then let's cheer her on silently, and hope that my spirit will bring her encouragement!" ”

As he spoke, he leaned out of the grass and waved his hand at Alyssa, who happened to look back, making a "come on" gesture.

Alyssa instantly jumped up from the ground and responded in a very cute pose.

Barn wiped the sweat from his forehead and continued to cook. He never thought that the two talented hunters would not have the slightest hunting rigor in private, but a little... It's hard to put into words.

Alyssa made a "reassured" gesture, then turned back and continued to look for traces of the monster. The trace characteristics of the Great Raptor have been almost collected, and to this extent, if the monster appears within a radius of five hundred meters from her, it will be easily located by the guide worm.

Even when they are out of range, they are able to find the latest traces in the vicinity.

Alyssa followed the footsteps of the Great Thief Dragon, and further into the interior of the Ancient Tree Forest, where the Great Thief Dragon's huge claw palm prints and the friction marks caused by the Great Thief Dragon's swollen belly on the ground could be seen along the way.

The green-glowing guide insect leads the way in front of it, and at the same time collects trace information of the same species on its own.

Suddenly, the movement of the guide insect swarm to pounce on the ground trail suddenly stopped, and after a moment of pause in mid-air, the swarm flew in one direction.

- Found it!

Alyssa's heart was slightly happy, and she strode closely after the flying guide swarm. The green guide worm is like the green eyes of a wolf pack that has spotted its prey, and it quickly burrows into a cave covered with vines with a blast of wind.

Alyssa stepped on the water that slowly flowed out of the cave, and with both hands she broke the adult's arm-thick, aged and hardened vines, and pushed out a small hole that could accommodate one person to enter and exit, and the whole person got into it.

Outside the cave, there are ancient tree trunks and solid rocks that are vicissitudes of life, and there is nothing strange to see, but when you walk into the cave, there is a cave!

Driving away the two omen dragonflies floating in front of her, Alyssa followed the trajectory of the green light of the guide insects, followed the direction of the water flow of the cave, walked forward from the high bushes, and after a corner of more than ten meters, she saw a swarm of guide insects stopped at the exit at the other end of the cave entrance, with red light flashing.

The monster is already in sight!

Alyssa quietly approached the entrance to the cave, and the worm spotted her, quickly turning red, and burrowing back into the green-glowing cage around Elisa's waist.

She cautiously poked her head out of the cave and found that in the depths of the cave was a small sun-drenched basin!

The branches of the ancient trees stretched out a sky at the top, and the sunlight shone directly through the sky, and the large thief dragon was on a raised stone in the center of the basin, quietly sniffing the flowers and basking in the sun.

A few sunflowers are scattered in the sun's dazzling places.

Several piles of rubble, tangled in vines, hung in mid-air, blocking out a few patches of sunlight and casting shadows in the hole.

The spring bubbles out of the cracks in the rock walls and ancient trees, splitting off several tributaries on the ground, and flowing out of the cave with the fragrance of rocks and flower petals.

Patches of shrubs and moisture-loving flowers and plants grow wildly close to the roots of ancient trees.

The whole cave is filled with the breath of life.

It's just a little too lonely.

It was probably eaten by a great thief dragon with a strong appetite. The stomach of the great raptor is more special than that of other known dragons - their stomach pouch and surface skin are very loose, and the stomach secretes a large amount of stomach acid at all times, which makes them often feel hungry and wander around to eat.

They eat almost everything, but generally prefer meat.

The original swollen abdomen of the Great Thief Rex had subsided to near normal size in less than half an hour, which also indicated that it was about to set off on hunting again.

Alyssa remembered what the director of the Institute of Ecology had said when she was at the base:

The strength of the forelimbs of the Great Raptor was so great that if an ordinary hunter could not dodge its slap, it was very likely that he would lose his combat ability; The Great Raptors belong to a class of toothed dragons and rely on their long tail to maintain the balance of their attacks, which can greatly affect its center of gravity if it can be destroyed. In addition, the Great Raptors are larger in size, more weight, strength, and lethal threat when they are full, and when furious, the Raptors will eat anything on the spot to fill their stomachs in battle.

Because Alyssa and the others were tasked with defeating the crown dragon, and did not prepare enough props to deal with large dragons, on Alyssa, in addition to a few bottles of recovery medicine, there was only a newly purchased paralysis trap for emergency use.

It was only at Fichte's recommendation that she decided to buy a few with her small amount of money, and to use them to escape when she encountered monsters that she couldn't deal with.

Therefore, Alyssa must make good use of the trap tools that can be used in the environment to hunt.

The details of the operation must be clear in the first place: destroy the forefeet and jaws of the Great Raptor, speed up its fatigue, and slow down its feeding, so that it is always in a low-threat state.

The final blow will be a sharp blade through its jaw, piercing its brain.

Alyssa pulls a handful of red nuts from a nearby plant—a fililoby fruit—and uses a catapult to launch one.

"Plop—"

The water splashed everywhere, and the gravel fruit fell into the shadow of the stream, making a clear sound.

The Great Thief Dragon, which gradually changed from a resting state to a hungry state, was instantly alert, and its huge head "brushed" towards the location where the sound came from, and a pair of vertical eyes stared at the ripples on the water.

The Great Thief Dragon writhed its comical body and flew over.

"Sniff—"

It was searching for possible traces of food with its sensitive nose when it suddenly heard a "pop" overhead, followed by a muffled sound of stones and dirt colliding.

The Great Thief Dragon looked up alertly, trying to see what was going on.

Huge shadows fell into the sky, and the stones were dense like raindrops, falling overwhelmingly!

The Great Thief Dragon's eyes panicked and wanted to run away, but it was too late.

I only heard a "boom", smoke and dust splashed, water splashed, and the roar of the big thief dragon in pain came from the gravel burial.

It slumped on all fours, its mouth spitting out pieces of flesh and bones, its undigested lunch.

Now's the opportunity!

Alyssa rushed out of the shadows, like stepping on a strong wind, and pulled out her sword with both hands, the white light covering the surface was already a little dim, but it didn't matter, Alyssa could feel the determination that the blade conveyed to her—it was the determination to cut everything!

Blade, unsheathed!

I saw a long ray of light cut through the mist and the smoke, instantly slashing through the space of just a few meters, and the hunter and the knife pierced into the middle of the slender tail of the Great Thief Dragon in an instant.

Air Slash - Denglong Style!

I saw that the girl raised the upward blade with both hands, fiercely cut the scales of the tail of the big thief dragon, and at the same time bullied up, kicked the big thief dragon with both feet, and jumped into the air with the momentum!

Spin around and raise the knife, gather momentum in mid-air, and with the power of falling, aim at the tail of the great thief dragon and slash it hard!

"Poof-" The blade sliced through the scales and cut into the flesh.

"Click-" The blade cuts precisely through the joint of the coccyx, separating the anterior and posterior joints in one fell swoop.

Without any suspense, the tail was severed from the end of the notochord, and the Great Thief Dragon howled and rolled.

That tail is still writhing even after breaking, it must be painful, right?

With a single slash, the white light covered by the sword disappeared, and the iron knife turned into a dull appearance again.

Howling and screaming, Alyssa slashed at the dragon's claws, the sharpest part of its body, but also the most vulnerable part of its body.

A set of slashes, cutting off one of the sharp claws of the great thief dragon's forefoot.

The Great Thief Dragon struggled to its feet, and Ang Tian roared—it was angry.

Alyssa immediately retreated, leaping out of range of the Great Thief Dragon's front paws. Although it had severed the sharp claws of one of its claws, it had another that had not been severed.

And even if the sharp claws were cut off, the slap of the Great Thief Dragon was still extremely dangerous, and the huge body of at least more than five tons, even the slap was enough for Alyssa to lie on the hospital bed for ten days and a half.

The Great Thief Dragon opened its mouth and swallowed the earth and stone on the ground, and its abdomen swelled again.

"Roar~!"

The big thief dragon's eyes were red, he let out an angry roar, his limbs swayed rapidly, and in an extremely fierce posture, he flew towards with a big belly! The huge chest and abdomen were like a huge chariot, and it went on a rampage with an unstoppable momentum, and even the raised stones and wooden stakes on the ground were smashed to pieces by it!

Before Alyssa could breathe a sigh of relief, she held the sword in her right hand and launched it with a hook in her left hand, clasping the crack in the rock wall of the cave.

The hook retracted, and Alyssa soared into the air.

In the process of charging, the big thief dragon suddenly turned its huge body sideways, bent the claw palm on one side, and slammed the claw palm on the other side, and the body with a diameter of nearly three meters rolled on the ground, and it was extremely elastic to rise into the air and crash into Alyssa in mid-air!
