Gordon looked sideways.

The moment his eyes met the monster, he knew that he couldn't escape.

He stopped and turned, his hand grasping the hilt of the sword hanging diagonally behind him, calming his emotions.

By revealing the light of the rising sun on the horizon, Gordon was able to see the monster in its entirety.

Big crooked horns, thick limbs, sharp bones and thorns all over the body, and most importantly, the furious malice that destroys everything.

All this made him immediately confirm the identity of the attacker.

"Nerukigat (Slayer Dragon)."

The other three also stopped.

Anyone could feel the killing intent emanating from that monster as if it were boiling.

A two-legged one can never outrun a four-legged one, and even a four-legged one can't outrun a four-legged one more pair of wings.

After clarifying the opponent's attack intentions, the hunters prepared for battle.

Since you can't escape, there's no need to escape over there.

"Attack!" Gordon let out a low snort and charged.

Faced with an opponent who dared to rush at him, the Extinction Dragon opened its bloody mouth and let out a ferocious roar that shook the entire mountain range.

The loud noise affected the actions of the hunters, and Xianglan immediately took down the huge musical instrument hanging behind her, and played it vigorously, waving a small fan and dancing an encouraging dance.

It behaves strangely, but as the melody spreads, the roaring effect is canceled out, and the hunters feel a kind of "upliftment" from the inside out.

Negative emotions such as worry, fear, and anxiety are also dispelled in an instant, and even the spirit becomes concentrated.

Taking advantage of the "courage" accumulated during the previous fight with the scale dragon, Gordon directly entered the state of courage.

The Grand Master called the Dragon Slayer the "Ancient Dragon Killer", and there was no doubt that it was a formidable enemy in the absolute sense of the word.

There is no room for easy temptation.

Gordon had a hunch that if he didn't show his strongest state at the beginning, it would not be strange to be seriously injured at the moment of contact, or even killed directly.

Noticing the change in Gordon's breath, Hayatta immediately entered a state of courage, and the speed of the charge suddenly increased to a new level.

The two scattered, Gordon heading straight for the front of the Slayer Dragon, while Hayatta took a detour, trying to get closer from the flanks and behind.

Perhaps because of the influence of the dinosaur essence brought by the [Greed] suit, the sight of the extinction dragon was locked on Gordon.

Facing the great sword envoy who was about to rush in front of him, the dragon slayer took the first step to raise the sharp claws that could leave deep scars on the skull of the ancient dragon species, and slapped down towards Gordon.

"So fast!"

Gordon hurriedly adjusted his pace and slid sideways.

The attack of the Exterminating Dragon is not fancy, it is brutal and direct.

The claw swing under the impetus of the powerful muscular power is so fast that it is smacking, and it is obviously the most ordinary blow, but it shows terrifying power.

The basalt ground, which could hardly leave a mark even if it was slashed hard by an ordinary sword, was not much stronger than the mud in front of this sharp claw, and it was torn open a large crater full of cracks.

Gordon, who slid in time to avoid the blow, didn't have time to breathe a sigh of relief, and subsequent attacks came one after another.

Faced with the wide bloody mouth full of sharp teeth, the distance of sliding and dodging was definitely not enough, and Gordon had no other choice, so he flew forward and rolled.

"Click!" The sound of gum clenching can almost deafen.

Gordon could even feel a strong wind behind him, and a simple bite action could actually set off a wave of air, how outrageous this guy's bite force was.

Is this the "Ancient Dragon Killer" who hunts ancient dragons in the flesh?

Gordon, who had swooped down to the end of the dragon, got up and slashed, and the inscription sword swept across the former's chest, leaving a narrow scar in his wake.

Thankfully, the Inscription Greatsword was sharp enough to break through the opponent's defenses.

If even the purple slashing blade couldn't cut through the dragon's scales, then there would be no need for this battle to be fought again.

Underneath the monster was a relatively safe position, and Gordon, who had finished his slash, was about to continue swinging his sword to attack, only to find that the muscles in the chest and abdomen of the Extinction Dragon were tense.

A strong sense of crisis caused him to immediately stop his attack and put up his sword and enter a defensive stance.

Almost at the moment when he put away his sword to block, the Exterminating Dragon leaped up.

Like a hedgehog, its chest and abdomen, which are not covered by thorns, are considered its weak point, and the dragon obviously does not want an opponent to burrow under it, and as soon as it feels a little pain, it immediately jumps away.

At the same time, he did not forget to shake the mace-like giant tail and sweep towards the hunter below.

"Ziga ——!"

The pitch-black bone thorns scraped a spark on the sword's surface, and the unstoppable impact forced Gordon to leap backwards and take a big step to unload.

And that's just a sweep that takes off and kicks in with it.

Excluding those super giant ancient dragons that are not out of specification, in terms of physical strength, the only one who can compare with this guy is the one in the depths of the Great Desert, and he has never been able to defeat the "Demon Slaying Demon".

Even the Angry Dinosaurus was a little inferior.

There was a slight sound of breaking wind behind him, and Gordon didn't dodge because he knew it wasn't an attack.

The support ballbow loaded with the crimson potion exploded on his body, and as the liquid penetrated deep into the cracks in the armor and absorbed into the skin, Gordon felt his muscles heat up slightly, and his strength increased slightly.

This is the effect of ghost bullets.

In the distance, Gail, who had shot Gordon, moved his crosshair to Hayatta, who was rushing towards the Exterminator.

In this battle, she is a "medicine" for her position.

I just brought a lot of recovery bombs and ghost bullets.

Hayata, who was also shot with a red potion, charged at a higher speed, and she quickly cut into the right side of the dragon's body, swinging her sword to attack.

The Dragon Slayer jumped around and was a claw, which was dodged by Hayatta with a cut.

Witnessing the brief confrontation between Gordon and the Exterminator, she knew that the latter's movement speed was a lot, and after seeing that Cut dodged, she didn't fight back as usual, but immediately rolled on the spot.

Sure enough, in the next second, the mace-like giant tail of the Annihilation Dragon smashed into the position where she had just stood.

Taking advantage of the attention of the Exterminating Dragon to be attracted by Hayata, Gordon roared and rushed closer, retaking the position of the main guard.

Rushing to the side of the dragon's head, he took advantage of the power of the charge, stepped forward and carried the sword, and completed the accumulation of strength in a very short time.

It didn't look like it was charging, it was like a normal knife slash that was a little slower than half a beat.

This is a high-speed charged slash that can only be performed when the spirit is extremely concentrated in a state of courage.

The inscription sword carried great strength, and slashed at the side neck of the annihilating dragon.

However, it was this short accumulation of less than a second that gave the dragon time to react, and it suddenly turned its head and returned its gaze to the great sword envoy, raising its big horn on one side and holding the great sword.

"Click!"

The great sword and the curved horn are struck together.

The purple slashing blade, which represents the highest level of human craftsmanship, only smashed an inconspicuous crack in the curled horn.

For a giant horn that was more than a meter in diameter, it was nothing at all.

The sword and horn exchange lasted only a brief moment.

The Exterminator raised its horns again, and Gordon, who couldn't match his size or muscular strength, was pushed back several steps.

Before he could gain a foothold, the claws of the Extinction Dragon, which were still stained with the blood of the Scaly Dragon, had already swung down.
