Astartes of the Bear School

Chapter 1263 1235. Deterrence and Retreat
When the crown horn was broken during the process of gathering power of [Supernova], the Flame Queen Dragon let out an unprecedented roar of pain.

It itself seemed to have suffered a huge impact, as if it had been stabbed directly by the Dragon-Slaying Spear.

The whole dragon fell backwards as if twitching.

Its wings and limbs seemed to be not very agile, and it flapped its wings on the ground for several times, taking five or six seconds before it stood up again.

He lowered his body, with fangs exposed at the corners of his mouth, and stared at the two hunters with fierce and violent eyes.

The crown horn may seem like a simple hard attack organ, but its essence and focus is that it is a sophisticated organ used to control energy.

It is normal for this organ to be connected to the nervous system of the whole body.

So Lan En and Winder were not surprised by the current performance of this Flame Queen Dragon.

However, although the Flame Queen Dragon now showed an expression of gritting its teeth and being extremely angry, its actual actions were much more cautious than before.

The footsteps no longer move randomly, and the wings no longer spread out recklessly
It was as if he regarded the two tiny but somewhat imposing creatures in front of him as real threats.

Lan En frowned and looked at Yan Feilong, but Winder took action.

He waved his two swords wildly without any plan at all.

He walked to the fragments of the Flame Dragon's crown that had just been chopped off and stomped on it hard with his foot, and while wearing the ferocious helmet of the Mist Nest Lord's suit, he roared at the Flame Dragon in a muffled voice.

"Wow!!!"

Lan En, who was carrying [Muddy Stream·Destruction], was a little confused, but although the Flame Queen Dragon also grinned a little more because of Winder's actions, his movements became more hesitant.

Winder lifted his helmet, turned around and winked at Lan, asking him to follow his lead.

Lan En understood a little bit, it seemed like a scene where powerful monsters were threatening and roaring at each other.

But he is not a traditional hunter like Winder who is active in the New World, and he doesn't know if he can be a demon hunter.

Although he was a little nervous, the young demon hunter scratched his head and walked to Winder while the Flame Dragon was staring at him.

Then he raised his sword and pointed it at the ancient dragon not far away.

“Wow, wow!!!”

The loud shout and the tip of the sword pointing towards him made Yan Feilong jump to the side almost as a reflex, and he bent his body even lower, looking even more nervous and cautious.

“Does this really work?”

Lan En didn't dare to turn around and could only whisper to Winder beside him.

"No problem. This is what monsters do when they fight for territory. I've seen it a lot!" Winder said in a muffled voice under his helmet.

"It's just that the monsters will roar at each other first, and then use a few moves to confirm their strength. If they are not hunting, they usually know that the other party is not easy to kill, so they rarely fight to death."

Even the monsters themselves can feel the monsters' vigorous vitality and have become accustomed to it.

Even if they bite off a section of each other's tail or even half an arm, they will be almost healed after ten days or half a month. This is considered a normal loss in the process of intimidating each other.

A character like Nergigante, who had half of his claw torn off but grew it back right away, is even more difficult to deal with.

"But this Flame Dragon is in heat and has a bad temper." Winder stepped on the broken crown horn on the ground with a big movement, as if he was showing it to the Flame Dragon.

"Besides, it was too proud and didn't take us seriously at all, so it started fighting right away."

"Now that it has lost one of its horns, it has been confirmed that we have the ability to harm it. We can use roaring to intimidate each other."

The current situation is that the process of monsters fighting for territory is reversed.

From shouting a few times first, then fighting to confirm the strength, it became first confirming the ability to hurt each other, then shouting a few times to see if there is any intention to give in.

Originally, the mission they came here to take was not to hunt down the ancient dragon, but just to drive away the Flame King Dragon that refused to leave.

Although it has gone through a series of twists and turns, in the end the target of expulsion was simply changed to the Flame Queen Dragon, which is not considered a conflict.

It would be best if we could just drive them away.

Lan En thought to himself.

Although he also enjoyed fighting these wild and natural monsters, in this terrain, if the Flame Queen Dragon really got angry, it might really create a volcano.

And although Winder beside him spoke and behaved normally, Lan En could vaguely smell the smell of roasted protein under his armor.

It seems that even with three [Advanced North Winds] clearing the way, rolling on the back of the Flame Queen Dragon in the [Supernova] charging state would not be without cost.

The Flame Dragon's eyes swung between Winder and Lann, and it kept emitting dull, threatening growls due to its estrus and injury.

But he never showed any sign of approaching the two hunters.

Lan En found that Winder's trick was indeed useful and was "nature's way of negotiation."

So he stepped on the flying Flame Queen Dragon Crown Horn with a big movement and roared at it again.

The evil aura of Smaug's scales and the Mistbrood Lord Tyrannosaurus Rex materials mixed in the armor, the mixed sense of oppression and momentum were released without restraint.

[Smaug] With every move of Lan, the sound of the armor plates rubbing against each other seemed like a huge dragon stretching its body and sharpening its claws.

After listening to it, people feel cold in their hearts for no reason.

As for the Mist Nest Lord suit that Winder is wearing, all the accessories are made of Mist Nest Lord’s materials.

The aura of his armor, if unleashed without restraint, would be downright violent and insane!

Just like the Tyrannosaurus Rex whose mind was tortured to the point of abnormality by its appetite, in nature, everyone is also afraid of crazy people.

Even if I'm not afraid, at least I don't want to contact it.

The confrontation lasted for more than ten seconds, with the Flame Dragon's roar and the two hunters' armed threats.

Finally, it was Gu Long who slowly stood up first.

Yan Feilong's eyes scanned the two 'little things' opposite.

It was originally in a crouching position before the cat attacked, but it slowly stood up.

Yan Feilong held her head high again, looking like a noble and dignified lady.

As soon as the Flame Queen Dragon appeared, it tore off half of the Nergigante's claw. It was so ferocious and brutal. This kind of attitude was the first time Lan En had seen it.

But Winder was relieved. It must be in the Old World that he had seen this appearance, which symbolized the Flame Queen Dragon's return to calm.

It kept its distance, pacing backwards.

With her head held high and her chest puffed out, and a body more elegant and perfect than any other cat, she looks like a majestic queen.

The lack of a large bone plate and horn on its head gives it an even more dangerous and incomplete beauty.

The pale blue Fire Queen glanced at the two hunters one last time, her gaze stern and profound.

It also contains wise considerations and thoughts.

Finally, it pushed the ground with its limbs, flapped its wings, and then let out a demonstrative roar before flying towards the opening above the barrel-shaped mountain.

The temperature is dropping and the flame is dying.

However, due to the special terrain of this mountain, it is not easy to dissipate heat, so it will probably take some time for the temperature to drop to normal levels.

Fluff Ball and Garfield jumped down from the platform one after another and trotted towards the two hunters.

"Wind! [Cold Drink] and [Big Healing Potion] meow!"

Garfield seemed to be very aware of Wind's current condition and handed him two bottles of potion.

It has been working with Winder for a long time. It can immediately notice things that Lan En still needs to observe to confirm, and is ready to help.

The fluff ball looked at his hunting cat predecessor and nodded thoughtfully.

As a follower hunting cat, it seems that it still has a gap with veterans like Garfield.

Garfield took out the potion from his kitten backpack, but Winder did not put down the double swords in his hands to take it.

It was Lan who took it from Garfield, opened the cork with two "pops", lifted up his helmet, and poured it into Winder's mouth.

"Your hand has been roasted and stuck to the nail, right?"

Lan En asked as he first gave him a bottle of [Cold Drink] to lower his internal body temperature.

As the part that had come into contact with the back of the Flame Queen Dragon so many times when it was in the charged state of [Supernova], the hand armor of the Mist Nest Master Set was still emitting hot steam like smelting iron.

"That's okay, it's not a serious injury. Just take a bottle of [Healing Medicine] and rest for a few days."

Winder himself smiled gratefully and drank the potion.

"If we were in combat, I would have forcibly torn the adhesions inside my gauntlet and used my hand to take the medicine. But the fight is over now, there's no need to suffer that."

Needless to say, Winder's skills, body, and will were top-notch in Lan's opinion. He could tear apart the skin that was baked and stuck together, and his hands wouldn't even tremble even once in combat.

Just like Lan En could cut open his own chest and perform cardiovascular surgery without blinking or shaking his hands.

These are all top fighters and top hunters.

On the other hand, the efficacy of medicine in this world also made Lan En quite astonished.

The herbs can be processed slightly into [healing medicine], and if added with honey it can become [strong healing medicine], which can treat injuries like Winder's, which would basically kill ordinary people.

Whose medicine can have such a huge effect by adding honey?

Lan En was planning to transplant some plants from the New World and plant one on his own to see if he could keep it alive.

But even with his most optimistic estimate, the medicinal herbs he grew there would be far less effective than those grown in the New World.

The vitality in the environment is too poor.

"What a pity." Winder, who was helped by Lan En to drink the [Great Healing Potion], raised his hands that could not be released. "My pair of [Ice Chain Swords] are ruined."

He couldn't let go of his hands now, and therefore couldn't let go of the two swords in his hands.

This pair of weapons, made from materials from the Wind Drifting Dragon and mixed with the blood of ancient dragons, originally had a streamlined and graceful appearance.

It can well reflect the beauty of the wind-blown dragon.

But now, under the high temperature, they have turned into two crooked and bumpy iron rods.

The appearance of the dual swords is gone.

In the end, Winder probably smashed the cracked horn of the Flame Queen's dragon crown off.

It is normal for weapons of this level to be damaged when facing the Flame Queen Dragon.
