Astartes of the Bear School

Chapter 1261 1233. Supernova

"This is..." Winder, who had swooped over, also saw this scene. He opened his mouth wide and asked, "Supernova?"

"This is what we're doing right at the beginning? Is it so irritable during its mating period?!"

Even Winder was visibly panicking, and Lan immediately understood what was going on.

Ancient dragons have an IQ higher than the average human being.

So they are not mindless and just use their natural strength to fight.

They fight with plans, purposes, and moves.

Even they don't often use moves that can explode all the energy in one breath to kill the opponent.

The falling attack of the Nergigante was named [Thorn-Breaking Annihilation Spin·Heaven] by the Ecological Research Institute.

After a split second of impact, all existing thorns on its body will be ejected at the same time. Such a huge mass loss will weaken it for a while even with its recovery ability.

No matter whether the name of the old man from the Dragon Clan is too exaggerated, there is no doubt that his moves are powerful.

And Yangyan Long's move is [Supernova].

Lan En had never seen what it looked like.

But he had heard him say it once when they were having dinner and chatting.

"There was a Flame King Dragon in the Old World. The place where it released the [Supernova]" Aiden was just chatting at the time, but his eyes still revealed seriousness and shock. "It turned into a lava lake, and it barely solidified after a week of rainfall."

The flames of the Flame Queen Dragon and the Flame King Dragon have different properties, but they are both Yangyan Dragons. Lan En feels that the power of [Supernova] should not be too different.

"Retreat first!"

Winder shouted loudly and waved his hand.

He couldn't help but be loud, because now the air in the arena, rushing with heat, practically thundered!

The air is so hot it's shining!
The Flame Queen Dragon was suspended in mid-air, and a huge amount of purple scale powder was condensing around it. At the same time, the blue-purple flames also expanded explosively and then contracted.

"This mountain is turning into a volcano! The base and the arena can no longer be saved! Retreat first!"

What Winder said makes a lot of sense.

Given the cylindrical mountain structure of the arena, if the Flame Dragon explodes in a [supernova], the heat will be blocked and concentrated.

This mountain might just turn into a volcano.

Needless to say, there are arenas and transit bases.

It’s not like Winder had not dealt with ecological crises caused by Yangyan Dragons in the Old World, and there were quite a few of them.

After all, this kind of ancient dragon is widely distributed and numerous.

However, this Flame Dragon in estrus had only been in the battle for half a minute when it was beaten so hard that it became furious and activated [Supernova]. He had never seen this before and had never expected it.

Ancient dragons are rare in absolute numbers, after all, there are not that many positions at the top of the food chain.

If Winder had not been the ace of the Hunter Guild, he would not have had the opportunity to deal with so many ancient dragon incidents in the Old Continent.

Not to mention seeing the 'precious' estrus state of the Flame Queen Dragon.

Yes, in the field of ecological research, the estrus period of the Flame Dragon is now an absolute and precious treasure that researchers are obsessed with.

But for the hunters fighting against it, it is undoubtedly a disaster!
In response to this unexpected development, Winder acted decisively.

The safety of mission participants is the top priority, and we are prepared to abandon the mission and retreat directly.

You cannot take chances when hunting. If one abnormal situation occurs, you must assume that there are other abnormal situations that have not yet occurred.

Especially in the New World, the logistics and security support for these hunters is far less complete than in the Old World, and every person is precious and under pressure.

That's why the first thing Winder thought of when facing Flame Dragon's [Supernova] was to retreat.

Garfield fully understands his ridiculously strong partner and completely trusts his decisions.

So the orange Felyne turned around and tried to enlarge the narrow crack in the ground of the arena to make it easier for everyone to get out quickly.

"Fluff ball! Come help meow!"

While taking out his little cat pickaxe, Garfield was also greeting his fellow cat Elu next to him.

However, the calico cat did not act immediately. Instead, it just looked down in the heat wave that was so strong that it made the air glow.

Because Lan En didn't move either.

Fluffball trusts Lane, just as Garfield trusts Winder.

"No need to go, it can be done!"

Winder, who was about to run back, turned his head suddenly and met Lan's deep gaze.

The heat from the Flame Queen Dragon almost made the air appear to have a turbulent, wave-like texture.

The hot air with sparks and purple scale powder was close to the ground, cutting through the edges of the two men's armored boots.

The demon hunter's cat eyes looked so deep even under such a hot light.

"I saw it!" "Let's do it!" Without time to say more, Winder immediately changed his decision after seeing Lan's condition.

This change was based on his trust in Lan's ability and his understanding of his calm and cautious style.

If he dares to say so, he can probably do it!

The change of decision and the exchange between the two took just over two seconds.

Now, the Flame Queen Dragon floating in the air no longer needs to flap its wings to maintain its flying posture.

The hot air around it is strong enough to lift it up!
[Cold Drink] is completely useless at this stage of charging.

The potion, which was supposed to be enough for the hunters to wear armor and move freely in the volcanic area for several hours, had only been consumed by them for less than half an hour. Now, every breath they exhaled from their nasal cavity seemed to burn their lungs.

My eyes also felt like they were melting.

A large amount of purple scales gathered on the body of the Flame Dragon, and its heat made the air in the entire space appear as hot and shiny as a steel furnace!

The air was vibrating with the heat gathered by the ancient dragon!
But Lan En took the initiative to approach the Flame Queen Dragon!
The brand-new armor clanged with Lan's heavy and steady steps, with an incomparable heavy and solid texture.

"Boom~"

Light red flames of fighting spirit first burst out from Lan En's body, and these fighting spirits were distributed all over him and his armor.

[Double-sword technique·Ghost transformation]!
[Turbid Stream·Destruction] had been put away by Lan En in advance. At this moment, he performed this technique with bare hands, which could use his fighting spirit to consume his physical strength in exchange for high mobility and reaction speed.

At the same time, spiral winds were wrapped around his legs—the [acceleration spell] from the Yharnam hunters!
His [Spiritual Vision] observed that the process of the Flame Queen Dragon gathering energy should take about four to five seconds, and the necessary tactical communication just now took two seconds.

There are at least two seconds left!
——That’s enough!

The superposition technique turned Lan En's body into a wisp of green smoke with a light red tail flame, but it retained the heavy and fierce texture.

In addition, what just exploded was not just the flame of fighting spirit.

And there is the [Spellfire] on the demon hunter's left hand!
[Spell: Intense Sweating]!
A spell to resist fire, incorporating special flames into the body, transforming one's sweat into a special fireproof mist layer.

The new armor [Smaug] already has excellent fire resistance due to its material from the Lonely Mountain Dragon, and at this moment it cooperates with [Intense Sweating].

Lan En successfully broke into the air around Yan Feilong, which was glowing hot like a steel furnace due to the accumulated energy.

It even allowed him to briefly resist the huge amount of purple scales on the opponent's body!

The scale powder drifted onto the bone-white armor and the dragon-skin skirt.

But it is often weakened by the fire-proof mist layer first, and then after it comes into contact with the armor, a small blue-purple flame ignites, and then it is extinguished due to lack of stamina.

The birth and death of these high-temperature explosive scales were no longer in Lan En's mind.

He reached for the alchemical leather bag at his waist and pulled out [Turbid Flow·Destruction] again.

But he had no intention of activating the [Great Sword Technique].

Because there was not enough time, the core of the greatsword technique, [Charge], was completely insufficient in terms of time.

Fortunately, he and the biochemical intelligent computer had already estimated the time and allocated it reasonably.

[Dual Sword Technique: Demon Transformation] continues to be maintained.

Although he has undergone many transformations, especially the transformation of his internal body environment, Lan En can actually mix and match the multiple weapon techniques of the New World hunters without causing internal injuries caused by a sudden increase in internal pressure.

For example, combining [Demon Transformation] and the long sword's [Air Blade Slash] and using them at the same time.

But not causing self-harm is one thing, and it's another that these techniques are intertwined and end up holding each other back.

The combined effect of two techniques may not be as effective as just one.

This is the direction that Lan En needs to improve in the future.

In addition to the fighting spirit flames all over [Ghost Transformation]'s body, a layer of light red particle light effect suddenly burst out from Lan En's body.

"Boom~"

【Power Released】!
This is the power of the life essence of the Mist Nest Master Tyrannosaurus Rex in this brand new armor! Lan En fully unleashed it in his first official use!

The strengthened muscles throughout the body suddenly tense up under the stimulation!
If the skeleton had not also undergone profound modification, and the muscles were connected to steel cables made of Valyrian steel mixed with Nergigante materials.

Perhaps the sudden and full tension of muscles can really cause large-scale compression fractures in the bones of ordinary users.

Even among the [Power Release] skill group recorded by the Hunter Guild, this is the highest level and the most dangerous level for the user.

It's [Power Unleashed: Ultimate]!
After activating and amplifying all the strength in his body, Lan En had also completely pulled out the more than three-meter-long [Turbid Stream·Destruction] from the alchemical leather bag.

But he did not use this brutal sword to smash or chop it out as he had done before.

Instead, he held the hilt of his sword to his chest.

The whole person made a preparatory action of "thrusting".

Those deep eyes were always fixed on Yan Feilong in mid-air.

To be precise - on its majestic crown!

And after the aiming was confirmed this time, the greatsword was swung with a magnificent sound!
[The turbid stream, the dragon flashes and rushes]!
