Chapter 1066: Strike Me a Hundred Times!
Gordon, who returned to the camp, knocked Feng Ying first.
Call you a mess!
Looking at Gordon's righteous words, Anhill pursed his lips and did not dismantle his stage.
If I hadn't stopped it quickly, your energy would have been cut down long ago
Despite a slight apocalypse at the end of the process, it was a perfect reconnaissance operation.
The existence of the weakness was confirmed, the position of some of the heat dissipation organs was demarcated, and even Feng Ying's somewhat reckless over-solution at the end of the blow also confirmed from the results that the attack on the heat dissipation organs would indeed cause a violent reaction from the Molten Mountain Dragon.
In other words, it can deal effective damage to the Molten Dragon.
After taking the opportunity to reprimand Feng Ying, Gordon immediately arranged for a messenger to deliver a letter to the Star Stronghold to report the good news.
Then, without resting, Gordon and the others gathered all the hunters in the camp.
He unfolded the "topographic map" based on the top-down sketch of the molten mountain dragon, "During this reconnaissance operation, we found four heat dissipation organs. ”
Gordon said, using charcoal to make four more crosses on the map.
"It can be seen that these heat dissipation organs are all on the line of the middle ridge, and we believe that there are many more heat dissipation organs that have not been discovered, and some may not appear until the molten mountain dragon 'stands up'."
The pragmatic hunters kept an eye on the position of the four forks and imprinted them firmly into their heads.
These will be their main targets for the next period of time.
After giving the hunters a few seconds to remember, Gordon continued, "According to the normal investigation process, we need to send at least three or four reconnaissance teams.
After completely finding out the location of all the heat dissipation organs of the Molten Mountain Dragon, and confirming the exposure of the heat dissipation organs in different postures, the next step of the battle will begin.
But now the situation is that we don't have that much spare time to investigate slowly.
Under the influence of unknown factors, the molten dragon became active, and its speed increased, according to the original calculation, it would burst into the Grand Canyon in a week or so, and then in forty to fifty days, it would reach the location of the Miasma Valley.
But now, that time has been cut by at least half.
There is no time to waste, we will go directly to the operational phase, and the confirmation of the location of the remaining heat dissipation organs will be carried out in parallel with the attack operation.
This part of the work will be entrusted to the compilers, and it is stated in advance that you will not be less risky than the hunters in this process, so you will participate voluntarily. ”
The competitive member of the recommendation group said dissatisfiedly: "Mr. Gordon, if we were afraid of this, we wouldn't have signed up to be compilers in the first place." ”
Other compilers echoed.
"I was offended." Gordon couldn't help but smile, "The next thing is the specific method and process of combat, which is actually very simple.
Four groups of people act at the same time, with one or three members in each group, depending on the situation.
Each group of pterosaurs landed at various locations on the molten dragon's body at the same time, preparing to attack as quickly as possible.
Then take the whistle as a command and attack at the same time.
Judging from Feng Ying's previous attempts, the Molten Mountain Dragon will react soon, don't hesitate at that time, let alone be greedy for knives, and directly call the Pterodactyl to retreat.
Until the molten mountain dragon calms down, the next round of offensive will be carried out, and the cycle repeats. ”
This combat process has indeed been simplified to the limit, and the boarding time of each group is estimated to be less than a minute.
Seeing the strange expressions of the young hunters, Gordon emphasized: "I know that this battle is completely different from the 'hunting' that you are used to.
But you also have to realize that the Molten Dragon and any monster you have ever dealt with are two different concepts of existence.
There is nothing we can do to kill it, even if it is on the verge of death.
Disrupting the balance of the heat cycle in its body and allowing it to burn itself to its last life is our only hope of victory.
It doesn't matter if a single attack goes smoothly or not, because everyone has to make at least a hundred attacks in the days that follow.
Therefore, self-preservation is the first priority, and it doesn't matter if an attack fails, and there are many opportunities to come back completely. ”
"Hundreds of sorties" The young hunters were dumbfounded.
Anhill hurriedly added, "Of course, we are not the only ones present who are responsible for the attack, and the Star Stronghold will also send more hunters to rotate with us in the future."
But we have the heaviest burden, because we have to sum up enough experience for our later companions. ”
The hunters breathed a sigh of relief.
Feng Ying suddenly raised her hand, "What, to be honest, we don't think it's very friendly to swordsmen to attack the heat dissipation organs." ”
Feng Ying pointed at herself, her dark blue guard suit covered in scorched scorch.
"I just slashed a few times, and I was splashed with lava, but fortunately, the defense team is thick enough"
In fact, this is the main reason why Gordon taught her.
"Well, that's what I thought too." Anhill spoke, "Except for the dragon blaster of the gun, no other melee weapon can achieve both 'high burst' and 'avoid being burned by magma' at the same time.
Shooters should be better, bow scattering, crossbowmen give priority to armor-piercing grenades and scattershots, and attribute bullets such as water-cooled bullets can also be tried. ”
"Then we swordsmen can't help but fight, right?" Jean asked.
"Swordsmen can carry bomb meows!" Pork chop jumped out, "This time I have prepared a lot of bomb bucket meows, try to see if the effect is good, and go back to the star stronghold to get a few more batches of meows!" ”
Gordon rubbed the cat's head with the pork chop, "The swordsmen are holding the bomb barrels on their backs, don't blame me for not reminding you, these bomb barrels are all frequented, remember to run farther before detonating."
I'd like to see how many times those heat dissipation organs can be blown up. ”
After the simple combat meeting, the whole camp suddenly became busy.
The first thing they had to do was not to organize the first round of the offensive, but to relocate.
The molten mountain dragon went farther and farther, and from the perspective of the efficiency of the attack, the camp could not be nailed to the spot.
The new camp is located in an oasis near the Dragon's path, but this camp is only temporary, and will continue to move north with the Dragon for a few days at most.
In this process, the cargo airboat, which has just been towed out of the warehouse, plays an extremely crucial role, otherwise it would have taken a lot of manpower and time just to carry the large number of bomb barrels.
After transporting the supplies to the new camp, the airboat rushed back to the stars without stopping.
Preparation on the other front is also inseparable from it.
In order to ensure the success of the "capture" operation of the molten mountain dragon, the investigation team launched a general mobilization.
The preparation of gunpowder and explosive barrels was a top priority, and not only alchemists and craftsmen, but also scholars and even "idle people" such as Madame Stirling joined the battle, preparing gunpowder day and night.
Batch after batch, countless barrels of explosive bombs were transported by cargo airboat to the Grand Canyon for burial, ready to be brutalized by the molten mountain dragon as it passed.
A few days later, news came from the Great Ant Mound Wasteland.
The Hunters' offensive had a fairly good effect, with one heat dissipation organ being blown to pieces, and no more serious casualties except for a few hunters who were scalded by the splashing lava.
But there is also bad news.
The heat dissipation organ that protrudes from the surface of the molten dragon's body is not flesh and blood, but a "hot tank" composed of some kind of mineral material with excellent thermal conductivity.
Even if it is destroyed, it will soon be able to regenerate as the internal magma continues to gush out.
And, as if sensing the danger, the Molten Mountain Dragon's speed of progress increased even further.
