Chapter 371: The Monster's Choice
The prototype of the dragon gun is a fixed crossbow gun set up in the coastal area to resist the huge crab, said to be a crossbow gun, in fact, it is about the same size as the trunk of the ordinary north, the large gun body is about the thickness of the hug, dozens of meters long, you need to use a whole city as a support to fire, otherwise you can instantly kill all the hunters around the arrow tower with recoil alone. www.biquge.info The size of the crab was huge, and the carapace on its back was mostly the remnants of powerful monsters, and ordinary weapons could not hurt it at all, so at that time, the Wang Lishu and skilled craftsmen of the New World countries worked together to successfully analyze and invent a series of technologies with the help of a small number of fragments of relics from the primeval period, which were used to support such a level of destructive equipment. It is difficult for nations to cooperate as closely as they did in the early days of the New World, but this weapon has remained in service to this day, not only as a weapon for the survival and development of the royal family and the hunters' unions, but also as a symbol of human unity and strength.
Although it is just an enlarged version of the crossbow arrow, the technical requirements in the dragon gun are not comparable to ordinary hand-held ballistas or even shipborne artillery. Not to mention how precisely the dragon rifle needs to be aimed when fired, and what level of power it needs to propel this solid steel giant tree, just looking at the destructive force generated by the moment the gun body collides with the monster's solid shell after flying at high speed, it is enough to make all the ordinary materials on this continent fall apart.
Legend has it that a large amount of precious materials are used in each of the barrels of the gun, and if one is damaged or lost, the responsibility may be traced directly to the branch leader of the Hunters' Guild. From this point of view, being able to carry a branch on the Warbird, even if it is the smallest model, is already proof that the elder has sacrificed his blood to the challenge.
In recent years, it has appeared in almost all large-scale commissioned tasks. Since the improvement of technology, the dragon rifle has sacrificed part of its power in exchange for higher mobility that can be carried on sand ships and airships, and the small dragon rifle has been able to break away from the launch pad and have a range of nearly 300 meters, but this is already the limit, at a longer distance, the heavy characteristics of the gun body will not only not become a boost, but will greatly affect the factors that affect the shooting point.
The restrictions on production, preservation, and use are the most destructive power that hunters on the entire continent can master, and with the exception of the incredible ancient dragon species, its power is enough to kill any species on the spot.
Of course, the dragon family is no exception.
The spear head, which was more than two meters long, spun rapidly with a barrel ten times longer, and the deep blood groove and sharp ruler-like edge delicately broke through the air blocking the front, and shot straight at the armored dragon. The dark cyan light drew an oily trajectory in the battlefield, inspiring a circle of rapidly spreading ripples in the surrounding air, and the distance of three hundred meters had already shuttled in the blink of an eye.
At the same time that the armored dragon stepped into the firing range, Yi Changyuan did not hesitate to abandon the half hilt of the sword in his hand, reached into the satchel with one hand, and threw out a paralysis trap that had been prepared long ago. The petrified skin of the armored dragon was weakly affected by the paralysis, but the sudden electric current caused the monster's body to stiffen abruptly, and it stopped straight in place.
After finishing the final work, the old hunter did not hesitate to turn his head and run out of the range of the dragon spear, compared to the armored dragon in front of him, he was more afraid of the indiscriminate attack of mechanical weapons, the destructive power of the crossbow gun is not only the point of the tip of the gun, even the shock and impact that spreads out are not something that he can withstand when he is injured now.
When the high-ranking hunters on the surrounding battlefields saw the first streamer, they had already realized that the battleship had really sacrificed such a killing weapon. However, the use of the Dragon Strike Rifle requires a cooldown time of nearly twenty minutes, and if this shot misses, the armored dragon that knows the hole card of the Warbird will definitely not give the hunters such a chance again.
It's a matter of success or failure.
A large monster bird that had wounded one foot and made a terrible cry that blocked the ballista's trajectory. The monster's ability to move was limited, and when the attack came, he couldn't dodge it at the first time, and he watched the dragon spear get close to him in an instant, only to deflect his head and neck, and let the gun scrape past his ear. However, the extremely fast spinning dragon spear had a strong tearing force, and it actually rolled the ears of the big monster bird into a blood mist. The heavy crossbow roared away, leaving only the stunned monster - half of its neck seemed to have been gnawed by a high-level predator, especially from the stream of blood, and it had long been silent, and the speed and power of the crossbow arrow had not diminished in the slightest after this slight blockage.
"Give it to me!" Yi Changyuan shouted in his heart as he tried his best to run away into the distance.
The tide of war never simply disagrees.
A black cloud suddenly appeared between the armored dragon and the ballista, the queen of the earth who had just become the new leader of the last remaining wyvern species in the sky.
Whether it was being forced to react because of the pressure of the superiors, or the female fire dragon using her low intelligence to make the judgment of the leader of the herd, or the male fire dragon who had just died at the hands of You Xishan was her spouse - in short, this female dragon finally fell straight down from the remnants of the wyvern species in the air, and resolutely stretched out her wings to block the front of the armored dragon.
Yi Changyuan's heart was cold.
The female dragon's mouth was filled with fire, and without hesitation, she spewed a searing breath at the armored dragon, and the fireball exploded in the rock dragon's face, but it did not cause any damage, except that the thrust of the explosion caused it to stagger back half a step.
In the next second, the former Queen of the Earth exploded like every monster in front of the dragon spear. The thick body of the spear with a thick trunk passed through the body, and the thick scale armor that made the weapons in the hands of many hunters helpless was like a piece of paper, unable to stop the crossbow arrows for even a second.
The unresponsive Armored Dragon then remembered to cover the vital points around it with its wings, but it was too late, and the Dragon Strike Spear pierced through the body of the female fire dragon without stopping to break through the outer rock armor of the armored dragon, penetrating through its towering rocky back. The swirling spear carried a series of rubble and flesh, and like a rake plow, it plowed a terrifying wound deep into the back of the moving fortress, and then pierced through and disappeared into the night.
Only then did a series of sonic booms from the dragon spear shoot out of the chamber that exploded in the air of the battlefield.
The armored dragon hummed in pain and rage, its whole body writhing incessantly, and the pain of the flesh and blood leaving its body made it almost frantically flapped its wings and trampled on the spot, and the air holes above and below its body were steaming red and white, and its tail fluttered on the ground. The wound on the monster's back unbridled the heat in its body, and it was unknown whether it was blood or residual magma scattered on the penetrating gap.
Yet it was alive after all.
The Queen of the Earth still did something, the moment the arrow entered her body, she flapped her wings with all her strength and flew upward, using her body as a guide, taking the trajectory of the dragon spear at an angle, grazing the head of the armored dragon and passing over the back, narrowly avoiding the head and neck.
The lost flesh and rock armor will grow back, but if the armored dragon falls at this moment, I don't know how many monsters will choose to retreat and leave, not only the dragon clan itself, but all the land and flying dragon species here will lose the chance to live.
But the queen had no idea what had happened, and her mottled body fell straight down in front of the dragon, splashing mud at the leader's feet.
The night sky lit up.
A pillar of fire that was much brighter and thicker than the previous flame ray erupted from the dragon's mouth, and no longer caring whether there were any companions around him who were worried about survival, pierced the entire battlefield with the force of destruction.
