The blinding effect of the flashbang won't last long, and hunters must take advantage of this moment to distance themselves.

There was no need for anyone to warn at all, everyone was running wildly in the direction of the woods.

With the stride and speed of a human, it is impossible to outrun most large monsters in an open area, let alone the extremely fast toothed dragon species of the Thunderwolf Dragon.

Entering the dense forest with complex terrain and many obstacles is the best route for them to escape.

It was still Julius who ran at the front of the team to open the way, not that at this time, you still have to pay attention to the formation, it is simply a double knife to clean up the vines and branches along the way.

Plus this guy is exceptionally experienced in escaping.

Who told the guild to let him scout for some strange things from time to time

Gordon was glad that they had brought with them a good number of Force-Walking Potions, which were of little benefit to a great sword like him in combat.

However, the effect of greatly increasing stamina is too useful when running at full speed.

Natya, who was running in front of him, ran at full speed as she lifted her light crossbow and fired some dyed bullets, stink bombs, and even piercing grenades into the trees deep in the forest, and into the mountain walls in the distance.

The smell of the dyed bullet is strong, and the armor-piercing grenade emits a loud roar, both of which can distract the pursuit of the thunderwolf dragon.

Gordon also gradually understood the significance of Natia's preparations before departure.

The silencer that seems to be in the way can hide its position to the greatest extent, the dyeing bullet is not only used to mark monsters, the stink bomb is not just used to drive away monsters, the smell of gunpowder after the explosion of the armor grenade is somewhat similar to the sulfur smell on their body, which can disturb the judgment of monsters.

Knowledge that seems to be useful but doesn't seem to be very useful has increased.

The roar of the Thunderwolf Dragon, the heavy footsteps that shook the earth, and the cacophony of trees being smashed kept coming from behind.

They still haven't been able to completely escape the pursuit.

Julius, who led the way, did not appear to be flustered, and he did not hesitate to choose the route until now.

As for the planning of the retreat route, he had already done it when he tracked down the thunderwolf dragon before.

"Less than a kilometer to go! Hasten! Julius gave a low shout, and the speed of the whole team increased a little.

This kind of rapid sprint would undoubtedly be a serious drain on physical strength, but Gordon and the others already understood Julius's plan.

As the hunters ran at full speed, the sound of "booming" water came from ahead.

The hunters and Elul rushed out of the woods, one after another, ran towards the abundant river formed by the convergence of countless streams.

Julius casually sharpened a reed pole by the river and threw it to his companions, "Go underwater!" ”

Then take the lead in wading into the depths of the river.

The heavily armed hunters naturally did not have to worry about not being able to dive, and the group disappeared into the river at night in a blink of an eye.

Tens of seconds later, the golden beast tore apart the trees in front of it and came to the riverside.

The target's scent disappeared here.

It lingered for a moment to no avail, and let out a roar of rage.

"Woohoo——!"

The hunters who had escaped the pursuit of the Thunderwolf Dragons did not dare to leave the river too far, for fear of being embellished by the Thunderwolf Dragons, who were good at hunting.

They followed the river all the way down until the next afternoon, when they reached a large lake, when they really relaxed.

By this time, everyone was exhausted.

After finding a relatively safe place to camp, lighting a campfire, drying their clothes, and eating some food to fill their hungry stomachs, they took shifts to rest and recuperate.

The ladies went to sleep first, and each of them hugged Ailu as if they were hugging a pillow.

Gordon and Julius sat around the campfire, keeping vigil and discussing what had happened.

"I haven't had the strength to ask if I've been running away before, tell me about the information you snooped, senior brother."

Gordon leaned his feet close to the campfire, and for a day and night to avoid the smell of footprints, they often walked ankle-deep by the river, and their feet were numb.

"In addition to the leader, there are also three thunderwolf dragons, your judgment is accurate."

Julius carefully wiped his swords as he said, "The key is that the leader, when I first saw it, I thought it was some kind of subspecies, but after observation, I felt that it was not. ”

"Not a subspecies?"

Gordon was stunned when he heard this, "I thought there would be more 'black wolf dragons' or 'golden wolf dragons' or something in the ecology books in the future." ”

Julius glanced at him and said, "Sure enough, you also had this kind of visual miscalculation, in fact, the scale skin of that leader is the same as that of ordinary thunderwolf dragons, which is blue, and at most slightly darker.

It's just that under the reflection of the night and the golden thunder, it will give people an illusion close to black. ”

"Ah, that's it."

"Let me briefly summarize the key points I found, first of all, it is larger, faster, its forelimbs are stronger than ordinary Thunderwolf Dragon, and its physical fitness should be better than that of ordinary Thunderwolf Dragon.

Then there is that kind of golden thunder, which has always been in a supercharged state when it appears, which may be particularly fast to store electricity, or it may be the norm for it to be supercharged. ”

Gordon frowned, "Normality? That's really troublesome, when we hunted the Thunderwolf Dragon before, the first goal was to break its supercharged state through repeated attacks, if it was normal."

"One more point, did you notice the wounds on its body?"

"Of course."

Gordon nodded, "If I hadn't noticed a glaring wound on its left arm, I wouldn't have ventured back to slash its sword."

Not to mention the leader, the carapace of an ordinary thunder wolf dragon cannot be cut through with one sword or two swords. ”

"It's not just the left arm, it's covered in wounds, it's just the left arm that is the most conspicuous."

Julius added, "Being able to hurt a monster of this level like that, as well as the wound that looks like it was being twisted by a reamer, and considering the reason why the Thunderwolf Dragon Clan left the Spirit Peak."

"Lanlong, right?" Gordon answered.

It's not surprising that Julius knows about this series of things related to Lanlong, but it's not strange that he doesn't know.

The reason why the master craftsman sent Julius to Jieyun Village is probably because he is worried that Gordon's brain will rush to Lingfeng to a certain extent, just to complete the promise of "I will challenge you" a few years ago.

Of course, Gordon admits that his brain isn't that hot.

"Hmm."

Julius paused, "Those scars are very, very deep, and have undoubtedly caused irreversible damage to the body of the leader Thunderwolf Dragon.

It's like the scar on the left shoulder, although it has long healed, but the missing muscles and carapace are impossible to grow back. ”

"You mean, the Thunderwolf Dragon, who rules the race, is a 'disabled person'?" Gordon asked half-jokingly.

"Disability may not be counted, but it shouldn't be a problem to say that it's been weakened by the trauma it has suffered in the past."

"Tsk, even if it has been weakened, can it still steadily suppress the entire Thunderwolf Dragon Clan, I really don't know how strong it was originally."

Julius was silent for a moment, "Gordon, have you heard of the 'two'?" ”

(There is another chapter in the evening)

In the previous chapter, I saw a lot of readers discussing the question of whether the two names are one or the other.

In fact, there has been a debate among people who discuss the setting, because the "two monsters" feel like there are two categories in the game.

Special experiences have led to the alienation of special appearances and abilities - Black Flame King, Purple Poison Queen, and so on

On this basis, it specifically refers to a certain body, such as the eye of the sky, the demon, and the golden thunder gong (the physical characteristics are too obvious, such as the eye of the sky, and you can't always be blind in a group of eyes of the sky...). . . ）

Again, there are a lot of controversial or vague places in the setting itself, as long as you have a basic concept~

After all, in a "realistic" world, many things cannot be perfectly defined in one word
