"Don't lean in!" Seeing that Lina was approaching the male fire dragon step by step with Xiao Zuoqing, Nie Xiaoyang shouted loudly. The tall hunter was supposed to be the last person in the group to keep an eye on the Shadow Hunter's every move, but he was successfully tricked by the Purple Hunter's truce. The young man was looking for an opportunity to cut into the battle, but he didn't expect the real danger to come from behind, "Don't you see? We're already doing our best! ”

"That's not enough." Lena pursed her lips and grabbed the girl's body with both hands. Xiao Qing'er has no experience in fighting people, and she was attacked from behind by poachers, and she was held in the most difficult part of the joint with just one face, and no matter how she wrestled, she couldn't break free from these iron pincer-like hands. The Shadow Hunter stood a few meters in front of the male, but the dragon didn't stop there, still dissolving the remaining glow of the flashbang in front of him, its tail and wings constantly sweeping into the air around it, and unleashing a series of crisp explosions.

"If you're afraid, just be louder......" The Shadowhunter lowered his head and whispered to the horrified little girl in his hand, the evil on his face hidden behind a gas mask.

A clear shout sounded, and the next moment Zuo Qing flew up with a weapon. The girl was tossed high by Lena, and the sudden weightlessness made her involuntarily move her limbs, and her vision shook for a while. Xiao Qing'er finally stabilized her body, no longer rotating irregularly, and when she opened her eyes, she found that the body of the male fire dragon was rapidly enlarging in front of her eyes. Lina's toss, as if she was feeding, threw a living hunter far in front of the Wyvern.

"Hmm-" In mid-air, the one-star hunter couldn't even shout. In the midst of lightning and fire, she barely unhooked the hunting flute behind her back, curled up behind her weapon, and met the crimson tail flung at the beast with a mortal will.

"Peng!"

The expected blow did not come, but the little hunter fell to the volcanic rock on the ground. In the end, she still lacks combat experience, Zuo Qing's landing posture is not good, she failed to roll and unload the force, her feet spread out to the sides, and she actually knelt down to the jaw of the male fire dragon, and the dragon kiss dripping saliva was only less than half a meter away.

"Hell......" Zuo Qing landed with the embarrassed Jia Xiao. The tail of the fire dragon is covered with bones and thorns, and the tip also contains poisonous and fierce mucus, and the small hunting group has no supplies, and on this barren mountain and wild mountain, even if it is only swept through a layer of skin, it is impossible to say that it will be in danger of life. The Great Sword Hunter followed Lena as soon as she struck, taking the lead in the path swept by the dragon's tail. Although he paid great attention to not letting his body directly contact the dragon's body, just this inhuman impact force made Jia Xiao, who was on the thin side, suffer enough.

From the safest corner of the battlefield, forced to the most dangerous place in the blink of an eye, the female flutist's mind had not yet had time to digest everything in front of her, but the instinct of being a hunter still made her subconsciously clench her weapon. Ignoring the sharp pain in her knees when she fell, Qing'er used her wrist to exert force, and picked up the hunting flute with one hand, and the thick flute cavity in the panic was like a heavy hammer, and smashed it the side of the male fire dragon's face.

"Woo——!" The hollow hunting flute whistled in the wind, a piercing noise accompanied by a heavy blow that exploded in the dragon's ears. The red wyvern was caught off guard, spilling a fishy saliva from his mouth, his neck tilted to the side, and his face was tilted to the side.

It wasn't until the lingering glow in his ears finally dissipated that the dragon realized that he had been slapped in the face by a human cub. The male dragon calmed down, reining in his movements, only stretching his neck back into place. The beast lowered its head slowly, and the initiator of the blow was sitting down beside him with a strange hammer-like weapon.

How can the dignity of the king of the sky allow humans to be so desecrated, the eyes of the male fire dragon fell on the girl's petite face, the dragon kiss opened, and roared angrily without pity for the jade. At this distance, the dragon's full mouth, pink tongue, and deep throat cavity were all visible to the girl, and the howl almost reached Zuo Qing's ears, and a stream of fishy foam fell on the hunter's mask.

"To ...... I'm going to die......"

Being stared at by a head the size of one's own body, nothing can effectively break a person's mind. Xiao Qing'er only felt that whether it was what she had learned in the training camp or her shallow actual combat experience, it was completely useless in front of such a behemoth. Even the courage that was hastily summoned was just like a joke in front of a monster two or three ranks above her.

Never before was so close to death, on the scorching volcano, the little girl seemed to have been splashed with a basin of ice water from the top of her head, her muscles stiffened and did not obey the call, but her whole body trembled slightly. The battle flute in the hunter's hand had been raised again, but it could only hang in the air, and the next attack could not fall again in any way.

No longer bothering the frightened human cubs, the male fire dragon's eyes fell on the hunting flute in Qing'er's hand. The monster turned its head, and the dragon kissed the long flute body, broke free from the huntress's grasp, raised its neck, and threw it more than ten meters away. Xiao Qing'er could still sense all this happening in her eyes, but her mind had drifted to nowhere, and she didn't even resist when she was taken away from her weapon, until her beloved war flute fell to the ground and made a loud noise, she turned her face to look at it blankly.

Although "Hu ......" couldn't perceive the human rank, the male fire dragon who had gone through a hundred battles still knew that the little guy in front of him had lost most of his fighting spirit. Satisfied, it lifted its foot and stepped on the huntress's forehead, about to reap the life that had suddenly appeared at its feet.

After all, this foot could not be stepped on, and the monster's claws seemed to touch a hard stone, and no matter how hard it exerted, it could not be destroyed. The Wyvern lowered his head suspiciously, only to see a bone fragment lying at its feet at some point, and the bone shield was just enough to cover Xiao Qing'er's body, trembling constantly under the feet of the male fire dragon.

"Senior ......" saw clearly the person who was blocking in front of him, and Xiao Zuoqing reluctantly retracted his sluggish thinking.

"What are you doing? Go away! Xiong Fuji's face was flushed, and his teeth were clucking. In a defensive state, the joints around the spear hunter were whining in overwhelm.

"Oh!" The girl hurriedly responded, and her eyes were finally no longer empty, and a few moves could avoid the shadow of the tower shield. As soon as Xiao Qing'er left with her front foot, the bear's defensive posture couldn't support it. The young man was kicked out by the fire dragon and flew out, raising a stone chip on the rocky ground.

"Don't think about it!" A single blow shattered the strongest defense of the Little Hunter Regiment, and the red dragon was about to move forward in pursuit, but there was a tall and thin figure in his field of vision. Xiao Yang finally rushed over from the outside of the battlefield, and the short blade in the hand of the two-star hunter slashed into a cold light, and slashed down at the monster's head and face. The male dragon was not forced to stop in the slightest, as it swerved its head as it ran, the scales of its side face pressed against the spine of the sword, forcing the hunter backwards.

The tall hunter's body leaned forward exaggeratedly, but it couldn't withstand the power of the dragon's multi-ton body. Nie Xiaoyang's afterglow swept over his companions, the body of the fire dragon was more than twenty meters long, and the other companions were still at the other end of the monster's body, and behind them were Xiong Fuji, who had just been hit hard, and Zuo Qing, who was in shock. Although the short sword is not suitable for frontal combat, he is already the last barrier for his companions, and in the current situation, he cannot retreat under any circumstances.

Thinking of this, Xiao Yang actually withdrew one of the hands in the wrestling, and the hunter's left hand was wiped behind his waist, and there was only an empty scabbard left in the position where the shield should have been loaded.

In front of the male fire dragon, the second sword light lit up without warning. Xiao Yang's throat let out a low roar, and the monster saw an arm flash in front of him, accompanied by a sharp pain, and his vision was covered with a layer of blood-red gauze.

"Poof——! A blood foam erupted from the Wyvern's right eye. The monster screamed in pain, and the fear of losing sight finally prevailed over the desire to pursue. The king of the sky staggered, his wings subconsciously flapped again and again, and his neck shrank back in shock.

"I'm sorry, I'm not going to be like that stupid bear, waiting to be beaten by you." The two-star hunter lowered his body, and the two sharp blades overlapped diagonally in front of his chest, the one in his left hand was slightly longer, and the blood flowed down the blade to the handle.

…………

"Ah Yang......" The magnetic call voice came from behind him, and the young man's heart moved, and his thoughts slowly pulled back to reality, "I heard the sergeants say that you have been sitting here for a long time. ”

The little hunter sat on a stump of a tree, and in front of him was an endless swamp of thin trees. This is the other end of the Everglade, where Scarlet meets the Southern Kingdoms. Situated on the edge of a treacherous terrain, with no monsters or resources to hunt, the area is rarely visited by poachers.

"Sorry...... When I was free, I realized that I didn't know what else I could do besides hunting. The young man's sigh carried a complicated meaning that only ten years older than he was, "After going around the barracks, I found that I couldn't help much, so I planned to be alone and quiet, at least not to cause chaos for everyone." ”

"I'm sorry." After listening to the young man's words quietly, he patted the dust on his body, and sat down next to Xiao Yang gently, "The military camp has been busy until now to count supplies. I'm not the head of the camp anymore, and I'll have to do a lot of things myself. ”

"I know......" Nie Xiaoyang turned his head to look at him. The man was as tall and thin as Xiao Yang, with a powerful face, and the military uniform on his body seemed to have just finished manual work, slightly wrinkled and dirty.

"Earlier, I thought that when you came back, I would take you to go fishing—the army moved twice, and I was reluctant to throw away those fishing tackles." The man shook his head regretfully, "There should have been a fish pond nearby, but a few days ago, there was silt in the upper reaches of the pond, and the pond was swamped, and there are ...... underground swamps in that area."

"It's okay," the boy paused and smiled, "Dad...... I'm a hunter now, and I often need to catch birds and fish and supply food on the hunting grounds. Believe me, even if it's not to the point of getting bored, it's no longer a 'hobby'. ”

"The head of the regiment let us go on vacation for a few days...... "After the thundering sand sea incident, the small hunting group continued to mediate with the hunter union for a long time. By the time the union opened its mouth to release the people, the entire hunting group was exhausted. Manyun insisted on staying in Locklac, while Lucius was called by the chief deacon to do secret training, and the others returned to their homes. I just thought, I should come back and have a look. ”

"Speaking of hunters," the man raised his hand and rubbed Nie Xiaoyang's head, the armor of the military uniform made a fine metal grinding sound under this movement, "I've been following your news...... A large commission from the Thundering Sand Sea, as well as the previous challenge festival. Did you win the apprenticeship group...... It's a pity that I can't see the award with my own eyes. ”

"Don't mention that." The boy brushed aside his father's hand, and the smile he had just accumulated vanished in an instant, "The custom-made dragon man craftsman gave me a disposable shield, and I have already used it. He pursed his lips and continued, "Now I have nothing left. ”

"Did you break the dragonman's precious hunting costume...... So these days, you're just bored because of it, right? The father leaned over to the boy.

"Of course not!" Nie Xiaoyang puffed out his cheeks, and spit out the turbid breath in his mouth, "That kind of jewelry bead is destined to be broken one day from the time it was built." He lowered his voice, "It's just that now that I think about it, it's consumed to the point that it doesn't make any sense." I didn't save a single companion, and everyone in the hunting group was worried about me. ”

The dragon hunting suit, which was the prize of Nie Xiaoyang's challenge sacrifice, carried a black round shield of "root nature", and after successfully dissipating the blow of the ancient dragon species, it turned into powder. Afterwards, Feng Chen once confirmed that Fengshan Long at that time had no intention of harming the teenagers at all. And after that, whether it was the repeated battles on the sand boat, or when Manyun and Lu Xiu went to the depths of the hunting ground alone, Xiao Yang never had a chance to make a move. The precious opportunity to neutralize the attack could have been used in more desperate scenarios, and it was even possible to save the dragonman seniors who sacrificed their lives to stop the ship, but all this became a phantom in his own recklessness.

"Hunter is a profession that takes 'guarding' as its duty, you say, do I have no talent to protect my companions?" The boy raised his face with a melancholy that did not belong to his age, "I hate that...... The feeling of seeing my companions in distress one by one, but I can't do anything. ”
