Chapter 12: The Battle of the Dragon Slayer in the Age of Cold Weapons
The javelin thrown by Buck the Bear was so powerful that Yu Lian didn't even doubt that it was really possible to penetrate the tank's armor. However, at this time, his opponent was already ready, and directly unfurled the stance shield, forming a transparent corrugated wall of light.
Poop! The javelin hit the ball of light, making a sound like hitting an iron plate, but instead of being bounced off like a bullet, it was deflected a few degrees, but it was still castrated, hanging directly on the fleshy wing of the gravel dragon. The gravel dragon was a little pained and opened to bite the steel bar, but at this time, Lieutenant Mondssen, who was like a legendary hero of the Cold Weapon Era, had already rushed in front of it, and swung his sword was a horizontal slash.
The blade of the sword, which had begun to emit a "buzzing" roar, brought a burst of sparks in front of the dragon's steel carapace, and the grinding sound of "squeaking" pierced the knife sharply, stabbing people's eardrums with pain, reminiscent of the scene of cutting steel castings in a steel factory.
Lieutenant Mondsham's eyes were bloodshot, he gritted his teeth, and let the flying sparks splash on his power armor, and even on his face, but he didn't even raise an eyebrow.
Yu Lian jumped down from the city wall with his gun in his hand, and his legs weakened, and he stumbled and almost fell. He even felt that he heard the screams of the nanomachines in his body, but he still relied on the experience of his previous life to make a tumble, over a section of burning rubble, and then slid past a collapsed steel frame, and thus came to the back of the gravel dragon. He picked up a grenade from his waist, and with the safety of it open, he slipped it into the cracked scales of the opponent's back armor - this is the same wound that Ina had hit.
Yu Lian held his head and rolled back behind the steel frame, and Lieutenant Mondsham on the opposite side obviously saw this scene as well, the middle-aged man who had once again switched from a greasy uncle to a sword hero suddenly retreated his knife, brushed away the bite of the gravel dragon, and also jumped back two steps, his movements were not elegant, but they were also agile and neat.
It's nice to have a dynamic bone! I'm missing my heraldic machine more and more. Yu Lian covered his ears and thought.
The dull sound of the explosion kicked up the monster's countless scales and blood foam, and it fell to the ground again.
Yu Lian sighed from behind the steel bar, and at first glance he didn't look at the gravel dragon who had finally been hit hard, but he saw Ina leaning out of the turret, as if she wanted to come and help.
"Ina, leave this side alone!" Yu Lian shouted loudly.
Ina retracted her head again very decisively. So, after a brief pause of fire, the cannon she was operating began to roar again.
"All in place! Hold your ground! Yu Lian shouted at the others as he picked up a high-carbon crystal sword from the ground, allowing the dragon to sliding around its side with a sliding step past the dragon's tail waving wildly in pain.
He felt the power of the spirit of the universe with ease, felt the smooth feeling of his arm filled with wonderful energy, and swept the sword lightly, and it added a little more charm to the four or two thousand catties, blocking the wing bones that the gravel dragon used to block the blade, and sent a sword along the gap, deeply piercing into the dragon's flank.
The place where the remnants stabbed was the junction between the carapace of its abdomen and the scales on its back, and it was also the weakest point on the gravel dragon's body. If there were connoisseurs present, they would definitely think that he was the true sword master, and his evaluation would be far superior to that of Lieutenant Mondsham.
This is not surprising. You must know that Yu Lian had learned all the "Imperial Stormtrooper Swordsmanship" in his previous life, and even the internal type five, which only special combat elites could study, and the sixth type, which was specially available to the Knights of the Astral Realm, had also been completely mastered.
Mental memory does not represent muscle memory, not to mention the difference in physical fitness between the two lifetimes. However, isn't there such a thing as psionic energy that is so unscientific?
Yes, psionics can indeed use psionic energy to replace physical fitness and strength, burst out with extraordinary strength, and make difficult actions that violate common sense, just like the setting in Wu X's novels. It is precisely because of this super-common sense power that there are hundreds of flowers blooming and hundreds of schools of thought contending with countless martial arts schools in the whole universe, and the prosperous era of martial arts is as scheduled......
Well, the heyday of the age of cold weapons! No problem.
Of course, being able to freely combine psionic energy with martial arts is actually quite a test of the awakened's psionic cultivation, proficiency, and combat experience. Not to mention that people like Yu Lian who haven't even touched the shadow of the star ring and haven't yet started are sensitive, many high-level psionics who can be called "masters" are still clumsy in this regard.
This is especially true if their rings are not part of the combat realm in the first place.
Fortunately, although Yu Lian's current body is weak and weak, and his spiritual strength is not a sensitive person who is not even a beginner, the most important thing is experience.
This is true both in the mastery of martial arts and the perception of spiritual energy, as well as the integration of the two.
His sword vaguely caused a chainsaw-like concussion in the air, leaving a rather serious wound in the dragon's abdomen, and a large amount of brownish yellow liquid oozed from it, the color was very dark and the smell was prickly, but it was not very viscous, and it was really impossible to tell whether it was blood or bodily fluids. It's no wonder that it's always hard for the scientific community to classify this guy as a "bug" or a "beast".
Yu Lian, who had worked with one blow, did not try to pull out the sword, but let go and quickly retreated. As a well-known ranger who travels the galaxy, he would not make such a low-level mistake.
Sure enough, he had just taken a few steps back, and the place where he was standing was pierced by the sudden rise of the ground stab. Looking closer, I found that the two sharp hooks of the monster's lumbar vertebrae had stretched out, connected with two tentacles covered with tiny barbs. One reached into the ground, and it was the body that had just sneaked up on Yu Lian; The other one was swung out like a steel whip, and there was even a hint of explosion in the hot air, and the "bang" swept away Youyou, who was rushing over for reinforcements.
I saw that the giant man who was second in the team flew back upside down like a broken kite, and fell into the rubble by the city wall without saying a word, and couldn't climb out for a while.
Of course, Sergeant Youyou is wearing power armor, so it should be fine, right? Probably......
In addition, he actually didn't send it without any help. You must know that the dash of this big body and power bones really attracted almost all of the dragon's attention in an instant, and his figure also blocked the bear sergeant behind him.
Under the cover of his comrade-in-arms "Human Head", Baka had already rushed to the side of the gravel dragon, still holding the extra-large special power axe in both hands. He roared, and an axe turned over, and smashed directly on, uh, the sword that Yu Lian left on the gravel dragon, and it looked like it was driving a pile, and suddenly knocked the blade deep into it half a foot in, and suddenly only the hilt of the sword was left.
Yu Lian hissed, and he felt a little painful.
Judging from Fang Cai alone, if anyone thinks that this seemingly wild and irascible bear warrior who is reckless all the way is brainless, then he is really brainless.
In the old days, this monster would have flapped its wings and fled. You must know that although the gravel dragon is a wild animal, although I really don't know whether it is a worm or a beast, its IQ is really not low; However, at this time, it still did not let out a howl of pain or fear, and actually forced the balance of its tail and two tentacles to stand up and open its big mouth. A blinding light flashed in the middle of it, condensing into a ball of light and roaring out.
This time, its target was not Yu Lian and the others who were close at hand, nor the soldiers on the city wall, but the battery where Ina was.
Yu Lian was the only one present who reacted, and subconsciously merged all his energy and physical strength into a psionic impact, which hit the trajectory of the light ball, forming a deflection.
An astonishing ball of light slammed into the wall partition next to the tower. Although it did not hit the target directly, it also appeared to cause irreversible damage to the support steel bars of the Sentinel Cannon. The turret suddenly appeared visibly skewed, and with the sound of "creaking", it also tilted more and more, and it could tip at any time. Fortunately, Ina on the tower had already jumped off her seat in one step and rolled on the city wall.
Yu Lian breathed a sigh of relief, but he suddenly felt that his hands and feet were weak, and he even felt dizzy in front of him, knowing that the excessive use of spiritual energy had already caused a burden on this poor body.
But at this moment, the steel whip-like tentacles of the gravel dragon with a sharp hook blade had already been thrown over.
Yu Lian struck what little bit of psionic energy he had in his arms, and squatted with his head in his hands, ready to meet the impact in the most undignified way. However, it was slow to arrive, and when it opened its eyes, it found that the other tentacle of the gravel dragon had been grabbed by the big black Yuyu and Sergeant Baka.
The two big guys of the team's No. 1 and No. 2 dragged the gravel dragon back hard, like a tug-of-war. At the same moment, the fierce "Sword Hero" Lieutenant Mondssen pounced again. He probably thought that the flapping wings of the gravel dragon were the source of the other party's power, so he simply tore open the wing membrane on its fleshy wings with a sword.
The gravel dragon was really anxious this time, and spewed out an energy bomb again, but neither the speed nor the power were far from being compared to Fang Cai's, and at first glance, it was forcibly launched before the cooldown time arrived. However, the bomb still hit Lieutenant Mondsson, who was close at hand, and immediately turned into a coiled arc of lightning and fire, and in this way ignited the opponent.
The lieutenant let out a muffled grunt of pain, but it was still another sword, tearing open another piece of the dragon's wing.
The gravel dragon let out its first terrible cry of the day, as if the screams of a strangled crow were ten times more extended, and even its panic and fury could be heard. It didn't know where the power burst out, and it forcibly shook off Baka and Yuyou with its tentacles, and directly waved its broken wings, leaping several meters high with the two swords inserted in its body, ready to escape.
However, it was already too late. Yu Lian was carrying a power hammer that he didn't know where to get it, and he was already standing on the other party's back, and it was a hammer at the zenith of his head!
