When the people in the stronghold were warned that a monster was coming.

Although nervous, it did not appear panicked.

Everyone's idea is also very simple.

Even if the monster attacking is an ancient dragon, there are several high-ranking hunters left behind in the stronghold, and with those defensive facilities, the attacker can always be repelled.

After all, it is not once or twice that the investigation team repels or even kills Gu Long.

In the eyes of the members of the New World Ancient Dragon Investigation Team, the ancient dragon was not an invincible natural disaster, let alone a god, but at best some extremely powerful monster.

However, when witnessing the image of a large number of flying dragons swarming in person, fear still inevitably breeds among the crowd.

Even experienced hunters involuntarily held their breath and their hearts beat wildly.

The hunters who can join the investigation team are all elites without exception, and no one lacks the experience of hunting the wyvern species.

If it is a two-headed flying dragon, there is no need for high-ranking hunters to make a move, any elite team can solve the problem steadily.

If there are three or five heads, it will indeed feel more intimidating, after all, large wyverns rarely live in groups.

Male and female fire dragons hunting at the same time are relatively rare, and most hunters should not have experience in dealing with more than two large wyverns at the same time.

However, arranging several squads to cooperate with each other, scatter the opponents, and break them one by one is still within the scope of what can be handled.

However, a cursory glance can determine the scene of a large wyvern with a total number of nearly twenty hovering over the stronghold, threatening to swarm down at any time.

Not to mention that it has been experienced, not even in nightmares.

The number of Wind Drifters has exceeded the total number of hunters in the Yuechen stronghold at this time, and even in the best of circumstances, one person will not be able to deal with one.

Not to mention, the Wind Drifter is notoriously cooperative.

It doesn't have to be too much, the two-headed wind drifting dragon takes turns to sway the frost wind, the cold breath, and the spiral rush hits, even the upper hunter will inevitably feel a headache.

What to do?

In everyone's minds, this simple and complex question can't help but come to mind.

"Boom!"

Someone pulled the cannon rope, and the roar of the artillery broke the dead silence in the battle street.

Cannonballs whistled and bombarded the mountains in the distance, and the burst of fire startled the swarm of wind drifters in the air.

Everyone also looked over involuntarily.

The person who fired the cannon was a master of swordsmanship, and he yelled, "Don't panic! Monsters are not armies and do not rush to the top!

You can't go it alone! Squad and fight around artillery and bed crossbows! ”

As the top marksman, Gail naturally took over the command of the heavy weapons, waving her arms and shouting, "Bed crossbow loads!"

Burst artillery shells are filled, do not rush to fire, wait for the opportunity! ”

The uneasiness in the hearts of the crowd could not be dissipated by a few words of morale, and the instructions of the master swordsman and Gail at least told them what to do next.

To be able to become a hunter, everyone's psychological quality will not be bad, whether it is panic or whatever, they will be put aside for the time being, and the hunters will act quickly.

The swordsman's guess was correct.

The Wind Drifters didn't come here for the obvious purpose of predation or turf, they were just expelled here by the Ice Dragons.

The mysterious singing that diffused in the wind made them go berserk, and the human voices and firelight in the moon stronghold further stimulated them, causing them to enter a state of almost stress.

A wind drifter finally couldn't hold it anymore and swooped down with a scream, charging towards the hunters gathered in the battle street.

Gale snatched a heavy bed crossbow that had just been reloaded, estimated the dive path of the Wind Drifter, and pulled the trigger with a slight aim.

In the humming sound of the steel crossbow, the steel cable was attached, and the crossbow bolt, which was as thick as a short spear, turned into a vague afterimage and flew into the air.

Heavy bed crossbows, which had to be wound on mechanical winches, were far more powerful than the ballistas used by hunters.

Pure steel crossbows covered with huge barbs easily broke through the dragon's scale armor's defenses, and stabbed precisely into the flank of the wind drifter.

"Whoa!"

The Wind Drifter, who was suddenly hit hard, let out a scream of pain, subconsciously spread its wings, changed its diving attitude, and hung in the air more than ten meters above the ground.

"Hum—"

The sound of the crossbow humming sounded again, and another archer activated the heavy bed crossbow, another restraint bullet, which burrowed into the wing root of the wind drifter.

"Come down to Lao Tzu!" Jean roared and activated the trap.

The steam-driven winch wheel rotated rapidly, and the power of the machine could even control the super giant ancient dragon for a moment, and in the face of this pulling force, the wind drifting dragon, which was not known for its strength, had almost no strength to resist.

Instantly lost his balance and was dragged to the ground by the steel cable.

"Aim!" Gail raised his arms high.

The two bursting heavy guns were reloaded with the help of the swordsmen, and the shooters in charge of the control commanded them loudly, pushing the barrels to adjust the angle.

The muzzle of the cannon was aimed at the Wind Drifter, which was firmly bound to the ground.

"Launch!" Gail waved his hand vigorously.

"Boom! Rumble! Rumble! Rumble! Rumble! ”

The repeating artillery used by the investigation team is capable of loading five high-explosive howitzer shells weighing tens of kilograms at a time, and two fully loaded guns are ten.

This weapon was designed from the beginning to defend the fortress and deal with tricky opponents such as the ancient dragon, and it was used to bombard a wind drifting dragon, which was obviously a bit excessive.

Especially at such an extremely close distance, which is only thirty meters, for a direct-fire gun, this distance is almost indistinguishable from that of a muzzle.

The sound of continuous explosions drowned out the screams of the poor Winddrifter, and by the time the smoke cleared, the Winddrifter had turned into a pile of broken bones, and the scattered blood stained the snow on the ground.

Jean raised his fist and roared and cheered with the hunters, but Gail's face remained solemn.

And that's just the first one.

"Don't waste time! Hurry up and reload! ”

The firelight, the loud noise, the pungent smell of gunsmoke, and the smell of blood of the same kind seriously stimulated the group of wind drifting dragons circling in the air.

Fear is not just for humans, many of the Wind Drifters are visibly shaken and are about to flee in all directions.

Not far away, in the snowy forest, there was a cry with obvious warning.

Hyata, who had not moved since the appearance of the Wind Drifting Dragons and was quietly feeling the movement around her, suddenly opened her eyes and took a step, rushing towards the snow forest where the cry came.

The swordsman's reaction was not slower than her in the slightest, but his legs and feet were no longer as dexterous as the young man's, so he was half a beat behind.

Their real enemies are there.

- Ice Dragon, only by solving this culprit can the crisis be truly resolved.

High in the air, due to the deterrence of the Ice Dragon, they were driven and chased all the way, and nearly ten Wind Drifting Dragons were brutally killed, fear had already penetrated into their bone marrow, and they didn't even dare to run away.

Under the combination of the two evils, the Wind Drifter, who was already in an extremely manic state, could no longer care about anything else, and in the chaotic and crazy hiss, they swooped down in groups.

The Yuechen Defense War officially broke out.
