It's a bit odd in appearance.

The body is petite and slender, and in terms of size, it is even similar to the snow deer, and it is not the sharp teeth and claws of ordinary monsters, but has hooves unique to herbivores.

With such a shape and physique, it should be difficult to produce that so-called "sense of oppression".

But the crystal-like horn on its head, and the white fur that was constantly glowing with electricity, made the hunters realize.

The mysterious creature in front of him, which seemed to be a herbivorous species, was the terrifying existence that caused the thunder and killed the dragon before.

- "Phantom Beast" Kirin.

Sightings of this mysterious creature are rarely recorded, and few people know about it, except for researchers and a few elite hunters.

In terms of blood, it should not be closely related to the "dragon", but it has a powerful strength that ordinary monsters cannot match, as well as a mysterious power that causes thunderstorms.

Scholars from the Scholars and the Elder Dragon Observatory were unable to classify it ecologically and biologically, and eventually classified it as an "ancient dragon species" that was also full of unknowns.

It's synonymous with "mystery" and "horror".

"Keep your head down, don't look it in the eye, don't show your back, and slowly back away." Gordon whispered a reminder to his friends.

He really didn't want to face this mysterious monster that was clearly beyond their strength after a big battle with the dragon.

But I don't know how not to provoke it.

I had to try to apply the same way to deal with short-tempered herbivores such as male snow deer, but I don't know if it works.

However, to the surprise of the hunters, what they did not expect.

The blood of the dragons sprinkled with the snowy tundra, as well as the heavy smell of blood on their armor and weapons, will be the key to angering the mysterious monsters.

It hissed at the sky, and above its horn and body, lightning lit up.

As if in response to its call, the rumbling thunder in the thunderclouds also became rapid in an instant.

"Spread out!" A chilling tingling sensation hit him, and Gordon yelled.

Gu couldn't lower his voice, the guy in front of him was obviously angry.

The hunters swooped out after a few paces, and the two Ailu burrowed into the ground as fast as they could.

Several thunderbolts fell one after the other, enveloping where they had been standing, and the thunder that exploded in their ears almost deafened them.

After the lightning strike, Gordon looked at the cratered ground.

My heart couldn't help but twitch.

Unless equipped with armor and talisman with extreme lightning resistance, such a terrifying lightning strike is enough to seriously injure or even kill any hunter in an instant.

You can't run away by retreating directly, and no matter how fast you run, you can't run faster than a thunderbolt.

If you want to get out of the way, you have to create opportunities first.

A slight vibration was heard, and pork chops burst out of the ground.

Years of cooperation made Gordon immediately aware of what it was up to, and he took a few quick steps forward to attract the attention of the mysterious monster.

At the same time, the pork chop took advantage of Gordon's cover and threw a flashbang in his hand.

If the flashbang works, the chances of them successfully retreating are greatly increased, and everyone's eyes are focused on the falling flashbang.

The bright light blooms.

The mysterious monster shook its head, as if nothing had happened.

Reluctantly, the pork chop threw another sonic boom, and this time the mysterious monster didn't even move.

Gordon's face became even darker.

He somewhat expected that the flashbang would not work, the monster itself was shining, and it could summon thunder, and it was not a strange thing that it was not afraid of strong light.

But the sonic boom was also completely ineffective, meaning they had no choice but to fight head-on and create an opportunity to retreat.

"Find a way to fight in close quarters, Hayata, cover me."

Since there was no other choice, Gordon no longer hesitated, and after a simple command, he took a step and rushed towards the extremely dangerous monster.

Hayatta nodded, and also rushed out, the two of them on the left and on the right, pinning down the opponent in a roundabout way.

Hayatta was very fast, and she came first, and came to the mysterious monster first, and the dragon knife slashed straight down, slashing at the mysterious monster's head.

The mysterious monster tilted its head slightly, easily dodging the blow.

Hayata, who was confident in the speed at which she swung her sword, was shocked, and she reversed the blade and slashed with a single blow, still being avoided by the monster with its side head.

Although both attacks failed, her cover mission was complete.

Gordon had already rushed to the other side of the mysterious monster, taking advantage of the monster's dodge of Hayata's attack, and carried the great sword to his shoulder.

In less than a second of charging, he quickly unleashed a charging slash that had barely accumulated to a certain level.

What he fancied was the brief gap after the monster dodged Hayata's provocative attack, and in the face of such an extremely agile opponent, the timing of the attack was far more important than the power.

What's the use of a powerful attack that misses you?

Even if it is just an ordinary charged slash, with the blessing of Gordon's strength and the heavy body of the Epitaph Greatsword, the power cannot be underestimated.

If you change your head to a snow deer of about the same size, it may have been cut in two.

Of course, Gordon also knew that the physical strength of the monster in front of him was not on the same level as the herbivore species of Snow Deer, which could not even be called a monster.

But it's common sense that small and agile monsters don't have too strong defense.

Then the reality in front of him slapped his "common sense".

The epitaph sword slashed diagonally at the back of the mysterious monster, with no thick carapace, only a slight scale-like pattern of pale skin, showing amazing toughness in front of the blade.

It felt like holding a blunt sword with no blade and smashing it on a stake.

Although it didn't bounce the blade open, it only broke through a shallow opening, and there was no feeling of going deep into it at all.

The dragon attribute energy that Gordon had high hopes for exploded, but before it could exert its effect, it disintegrated and dissipated under the powerful current hedge that lingered on the surface of the monster's body.

What the hell is meaty! And the dragon attribute is also invalid?!

The mysterious monster felt offended.

It turned its head slowly, unable to distinguish its pupils from its iris, and its red eyes stared at Gordon.

Although he didn't have the ferocious and bloodthirsty feeling of a dragon, Gordon felt as if his heart was being clutched so hard, his joints stiffened, and his body could barely move.

The mysterious monster hissed and raised its front hooves, as if a sharp horn solidified by lightning stabbed at his chest.

Gordon struggled to lift his broadsword and hold it in front of his chest.

"Boom!"

Fortunately, the strength of the mysterious monster was not too exaggerated, and it failed to directly break through Gordon's defensive stance.

A single horn that shimmered with electric light poked at the sword of the epitaph greatsword.

The crystallization of the ancient civilization's forging technology showed its due strength, and the horn that could easily pierce through the steel was slid open by the smooth and hard sword surface, grazing Gordon's shoulder.

"Zila!"

Gordon only felt that his shoulders were numb with most of his body, and he was half on his knees, almost unable to hold his sword.

If it weren't for the fact that the epitaph sword and the fire dragon armor were reliable enough, his chest or shoulders would have been pierced at this time.

Behind the monster, Hayatta swung her sword in a row, trying to attract attention.

At this time, she finally realized the powerlessness that Gordon had just now.

The blade of the Wyvern Blade was not enough to deal effective damage, and the toxins on the sword's body were broken down by lightning.

Where exactly is the hope of victory

Ps.

There is no such thing as a subordinate ancient dragon in this book, so don't think "how can this electric donkey be so strong when you first see it?" ”。

By the way, I complained about the flesh of the unicorn except for the head and horns, this product is simply a steel plate.
