On the river.

Mance pulled the trigger in his hand, the gun roared like thunder, the huge recoil could knock a strong man to the ground, and a straight blue light shot into the water, which was the alchemy circle on the bullet head at work.

As soon as the bullet touched the water, a small whirlpool rolled up on the water, and under the advance of the alchemy circle, the river not only did not slow down the power of the bullet, but also added more speed to it.

Mance fired continuously, and the entire magazine of large-caliber bullets were all shot into the water, and those blue rays were pulled out before they were extinguished, and at the same time, several cold lights lingered in the dark air, bringing out a kind of solemn beauty.

As if aware of the power of the alchemically modified bullets, the underwater creatures that had been following straight began to weave their way around the water, as if trying to dodge the attack.

"Selma, give me more bullets!"

With Mance yelling, Selma rushed out of the cabin with her newly filled magazine.

As soon as she stepped out of the hatch, she saw the Maritime Bureau's helicopter still hovering in mid-air, and apparently the other party had also noticed that the Moniach was being chased by something, so she hit the searchlight on the whirlpool that the thing had raised.

A large number of bubbles surged in the center of the vortex, and an incredibly huge black shadow suddenly flashed, and for a moment Thelma suspected that she was hallucinating, as if all these violent storms around her were to welcome this moment.

The dragon leaped to the height of the helicopter in an instant, and it was about to run out, but with a curl of its long tail, it caught the landing gear of the heavy helicopter, and leaped high again with its strength.

Suddenly such a force was exerted, even a heavy helicopter that could bear a load of more than ten tons was almost unbalanced, and it was about to hover to the water, but fortunately, the pilot's skills were excellent, and the helicopter's imbalance was urgently reversed.

The dragon, which had already soared to the heights, stretched out its body, and after a slight pause, writhed like a long whip, its slender tail pumping fiercely towards the helicopter's rotors.

Rumble! Rumble! Rumble!

When the helicopter was about to be destroyed by the hit, the dragon's body suddenly burst into flames that exploded in multiple places, and the terrifying impact blasted the dragon in mid-air, which had nowhere to draw its strength.

Taking advantage of this brief opportunity, the pilot in the helicopter immediately left the battlefield and flew away into the distance.

"It's ......"

On the Moniach, Professor Sman looked at the dragon that had been blown up in the air and lost his mind, and the loaded gun in his hand stopped aiming.

He had planned to wait for the dragon to stop in the air before attacking, but now the sudden explosion made him a little undecided.

"Did we bring any other weapons this time?" After a moment's thought, Mance shouted at the front warehouse.

"There are only 10 miniature underwater charges, we are now tugboats, and in order to avoid trouble during inspections, most of the weapons are unloaded!"

The first mate who was in charge of the ship also responded with a roar, he was at the helm, the engines were running at full power to make the Moniach as difficult to control as a mad swordfish, and in order to prevent the ship from sinking due to the excessive speed, he was now all focused on the complicated dashboards, and beads of sweat oozed from his forehead.

"Since it wasn't our attack, who was it? Who else would be here?! A cold sweat began to break out on Mance's forehead, and he suddenly found himself in the midst of a larger conspiracy.

At this time, the dragon that had just been blasted down into the river by the explosion had already adjusted its offensive posture again. As a dragon of the Bronze and Fire Lord, it was impossible for an ordinary flame explosion to hurt it, but in this explosion, in addition to the regular flames, there was an aura that it was very familiar with—it was the breath of alchemy.

The golden pupils exuded a terrifying tyrannical emotion, and with a roar that could pierce the river, the attack just now reminded it of something unpleasant, and the dragon no longer held a playful mood, but became serious.

It was no longer a thin line of water that was chasing the Morjach again, and Mance and Selma could clearly see a pitch-black spine floating on the water, and they could vaguely see that each piece of the spine was as craggy as a reef, and the long tail under the water swung at high speed, but it did not bring any splash, and a huge mouth was half-sunk under the water, and what was exposed on the water was a hideous upper jaw, and two terrifying hook teeth could be seen.

The whole dragon was like an attacking crocodile, except that this "crocodile" was more than ten meters long and could swim to a speed of fifty knots that ordinary creatures could never reach.

"Damn! All the underwater bombs are released! Mance watched the other party get closer and closer to his ship, and could only helplessly shout into the cabin. He lifted his reloaded sniper rifle again and aimed it at the dragon's exposed back.

Faced with the hardest scales on the dragon's back, bullets could only splash sparks at its body.

At the command of Mance, the rudder turned rapidly in the hands of the first mate, and with his rich piloting experience, the Moniach splashed several meters high, pulling a "Z" shape on the water with a wide angle of folded lines.

At the same time, the second officer, who had been prepared for a long time, opened the underwater hatch, and ten underwater bombs were released in succession. Combined with the route of the first mate, these underwater bombs are lined up in three rows in the number of three, four, three, to form a perfect trap.

The moment they entered the water, the miniature engines on the bombs were activated, and the bombs were suspended five to ten meters below the water, waiting for their prey.

Faced with such an obvious trap, the dragon did not have the slightest intention of slowing down, and swam directly towards the Moniach.

"Try the masterpiece of those crazy people in the equipment department!" Mance pinched the moment and slapped the detonation button in his hand.

A deafening explosion came from behind, and the sound of the transmission made the entire Moniac tremble.

The moment ten underwater bombs exploded at the same time, huge waves were set off on the entire river, and terrifying flames rose into the sky, and even the river could not stop it. When the bombs exploded, sharp pieces of metal mixed with the explosives sputtered in all directions, some of which even hit the stern of the Moniach.

Boom!

Before Mance could rejoice, a slender black shadow pierced through the massive waves stirred up by the bomb. Ten bombs were specially modified by the Equipment Department, but the dragon only had some scales shattered. Such an injury not only could not affect his combat effectiveness, but even provoked it, and the long, huge black shadow crashed into the Moniach after penetrating the water.

The first mate's mastery of the piloting was once again a meritorious one, and the Moniach suddenly flicked its tail in the midst of a rapid run, avoiding the dragon's direct impact. At the last moment, however, the dragon opened its jaws and bit the stern of the Moniach.

The power of the upper and lower jaws was far beyond the limits of the creature, and the hard, venomous dragon teeth bit deep into the steel of the Moniach, a deadly force that no ordinary creature could resist, and the stern armor of incredible thickness was bitten in half.

The terrifying physical power exploded, and the ship, which was originally a battleship, was even dragged to a sharp slowdown, and the bodies of Mance and the others were not able to stand firm and almost fell to the deck.

Looking at the wild and terrifying body of the dragon below, Mance leaned against the bulkhead to maintain his balance, he knew that this was not the power of any living being, and that this massive body almost cut off the idea of any half-breed wrestling with it as a human.

There was a brief stalemate, and finally the metal in the stern could no longer hold it up, and it was torn apart by the dragon's fangs.

Having lost the strength of the pull, the already overheated engine roared again, and Mance stood alone in the stern of the ship, watching the migrating behemoth in the distance, the rain running down the wrinkles of his face. However, as the stern of the ship violently rolled up the waves, the Moniach lost power and lay on the water.

The dragon's cut not only tore the stern of the ship, but also damaged part of the engine and propeller.

An eerie laugh seemed to float out of the stormy waves, echoing around the Moniach lying in its nest, in a very low voice, but with a very light cheerfulness.

Boom!

Mance angrily hammered his fist into the stern bulkhead, and he could hear that it was the dragon laughing, the behemoth laughing at them.

The first and second officers in the cabin quietly took out Mance's treasured cigars, cut them and lit them, and one of them took a sip, the strong smell of smoke soothed their spirits and made them close their eyes.

They had done everything they could, and although they didn't want to die to slay the dragon, they were ready for it if there was such a day.

Crash!

As the water fell from the scales, the dragon stretched most of its body out of the river, and with the help of the light of the Moniach, Mance saw the other man's body completely for the first time.

The golden pupils were like burning flames, the two withered yellow, scimitar-like sharp teeth were a meter long, the rows of teeth were as dense as thorns, and the dark and slender body was hidden in the night, and the dense scales shone with a faint light. Even though many bodies were still hidden in the water, Mance still saw grace and majesty in this body.

Staring at the other party's slowly opening mouth, Mance did not fear and retreated, he stood straight in the wind and rain, showing the last of his backbone to this terrifying monster.

Bang!

Rumble!

Suddenly, a cannon shot came from the rain curtain, and a large cloud of sparks immediately burst out from the dragon's head, and the hard scale armor on its head cracked, and the terrifying impact directly smashed its body back to the water.

"Roar!!

Suddenly attacked like this, the dragon roared angrily, and a visible anger appeared in the lava-like pupils.

In the next moment, a loud roar like a bell erupted from the dragon's mouth, this is pure dragon text! It's the ultimate spiritual chant!

The talent of the pure-blooded dragon clan made this chant almost flash, and at the beginning of the chant, a crimson realm floated on the surface of the dragon's scales, and the next moment, this crimson realm expanded, almost in an instant, covering a radius of several kilometers, and as the dragon continued to exert force, this realm continued to extend farther away.

Bang! Bang! Bang!

When the figure of several cannonballs was captured by the field, the dragon that emerged from the water immediately looked at it, and a scorching flame instantly condensed in front of it, and finally collapsed and burst to operate a long pillar of flames, releasing extreme light and heat to sweep towards the captured cannonballs.

After being swept by the pillar of fire, the cannonball made of metal was also melted into molten iron by the infinite light and heat, and the sound of the heavy cannon firing was transmitted to the ears of the ship's people at this time, accompanied by several rounds of fire.

Searching for the sound of artillery fire, Mance looked in the direction of the attack, but unfortunately the rain and darkness obscured his vision, preventing him from seeing.

In the next moment, however, the light of a large number of rockets and artillery fire in the air indicated the source of his attack.

Being able to use so many heavy weapons in this country, and still in a strategic point like the Three Gorges, and no longer knowing who the other side is, Mance feels that his brain can be twisted off and kicked as a ball.

Unlike the mixed-race countries in Europe and the United States, the mixed-race families here are controlled by the state, and they are not only full of restrictions in their daily lives, but also have to report to the upper echelons in various major matters.

But on the other hand, in some special matters, the resources they can mobilize are far beyond the half-blood families of the secret party.

Mance didn't know how the half-breed family in this country knew about the actions of the others, and this operation was kept in extreme secrecy from beginning to end, but he still relaxed in the face of the flying artillery fire.

Although Mance, who is a high-level hybrant, does not agree, he now has to admit that under the modern air-ground integrated strike, the truth will always be only within the farthest combat radius of tactical/strategic missiles and sea-based aviation.

The dragon's spirit exerted its strength again, and the long pillar of flame like a beam of light swept over the flying rockets, and the flames of ammunition explosion lit up the entire sky.

It may seem like it's useless, but over time, the dragon's stamina begins to decline considerably. Each rocket is inscribed with alchemy circles, which absorb a small amount of explosive energy after the carrier explodes, and remain in the air for a short time.

As the number of alchemy circles in mid-air increased, the effects of these circles began to appear. The dragon's physical exertion increased with each use of the Spirit, and its body became more and more sluggish, and sporadic artillery fire began to attack it through its defensive net.

When the dragon finally sensed that his body was wrong and wanted to dive into the water to escape, the alchemy circles suspended in the air immediately turned into golden chains, wrapping around the dragon's body.

Looking through the telescope at the immobile dragon wrapped in golden chains in the distance, this time the commander made a gesture, and an armor-piercing bullet that was highly enhanced by alchemy, and could even be called an alchemy weapon, was pushed into the barrel engraved with alchemy circle.

With a command, the cannonball struck the dragon's head with precision and speed invisible to the naked eye, piercing its proud scales and bones and taking its life with it.

The next big plot is a trip to Japan, so I sneaked out and took a picture of the cowherd shop for you, which is in the easter egg chapter at the back.

Look at it and cherish it, I deleted a lot of it before it passed the review.
