Do you believe me when I say I’m not a dragon?

"You, you continue to watch! I will report..."

He said, and then quickly left here.

——Here is the observation tower of Floating Island No. [-], built on the edge of Floating Island.

Of course, they were not the only ones here tonight, other watchtowers that could see in this direction also became active at this moment.

"At this moment, the floating island has floated to the desert area. Is there only one creature with the ability to fly at high altitudes and the ability to breathe fire nearby?"

Someone said this during an emergency meeting in the Ecological Research Institute.

The rest of the people nodded silently, while some frowned and didn't know what they were talking about.

Another person asked: "I know one of the creatures that has been making a lot of noise recently, and that is the black dragon, the son of the gray scale dragon and the fire dragon. But neither the gray scale dragon nor the fire dragon has this kind of flying ability. Can someone explain it to me? For a moment?"

"That creature is indeed a black dragon." The scholar on the side said: "Its wing type is closer to that of a fire dragon, but its wingspan ratio is wider than that of a fire dragon. At the same time, its strength is also outstanding compared to creatures of the same size. "

"Is it that incident? I remember that a promising scholar died in that incident."

"That's it."

After casually mentioning the past, they no longer focused on the past, but once again focused on the black dragon.

"——At present, some people have heard the roar of the black dragon. Many civilians have never seen a creature on the earth since they were born. The current situation is that most of them have severe panic. If they are not treated If it is controlled, it is likely to cause riots.”

For the residents of the floating island, most of them are just cogs that maintain the flight of the floating island. They have no chance to understand the existence on the ground. At the same time, because of the history of [Catastrophe], they have no understanding of the creatures on the ground. Terrified.

"Have you found the reason why the black dragon is close to the floating island?"

"It is said that several hunting groups fought with it on the spaceship."

Hearing this, a scholar frowned: "But I remember that the Hunter Guild canceled this mission two weeks ago?"

"It seems that they received the mission in advance. They don't seem to have received the announcement from the Hunter Guild."

"...If that's the case, there's nothing we can do about it." An old man rubbed his brows, with heavy tiredness in his eyes. He turned to his subordinates standing aside and said, "Inform the police about this matter." Let them solve it on their own at the Island Federation.”

Before he finished speaking, he thought of something and added: "By the way, remember to add 'according to the analysis of the Institute of Ecology' in front of the document."

"Understood." The subordinate nodded, and the old man looked at everyone: "Then, this meeting is disbanded."

......

"—This is a document, please hand it over to me."

At the gate of Sky Island Federation, a subordinate handed the briefcase containing documents to two silent men in suits.

"Then I'll take my leave."

After handing the briefcase out, he turned and left, while the two men in suits walked into the bright and clean building behind him.

"...Are you just trying to push things off again? It could just be summed up in one announcement, so why do we need to hold another meeting here?"

The two of them walked in the deserted corridor. After a brief silence, one of the men couldn't help but complain.

"There is no way. You must be responsible for signing and issuing a formal announcement. Whether it is the Hunters Guild or the Ecological Research Institute, once a request for a floating island fire attack is issued, the applicant must submit a copy of the subsequent loss deficit. They don’t want to give up that resource.”

Another man also whispered, and then they went through a curve and came to the door at the deepest part of the corridor.

Expand.

"come in."

A man knocked on the door, and then a voice came from inside the door.

They opened the door and looked at the senior officials and representatives from all over the floating island.

After the middle-aged man in charge took the file, he opened it and glanced at it, then frowned and sighed inaudibly.

"...Anyway, what do you think about the black dragon appearing nearby?"

"At present, the appearance of the black dragon has caused no damage to the buildings on the floating island, but the mood of the people is not ideal. They are afraid of the appearance of the black dragon."

"So what's the situation with those hunters?"

"The battle is still ongoing, but the spacecraft has shot down one."

The middle-aged man glanced at everyone, pondered for a moment, looked in one direction and asked: "So, how long will it take to reactivate the floating island artillery?"

"Half an hour." In the direction where he was looking, a stern man replied.

A smile appeared on his lips, and a rare hint of joy appeared on his steady face.

The position of controlling the floating island attack system is an embarrassing position here. Although you can also participate in various major events, due to the special nature of the floating island, there are very few opportunities to activate the artillery. Many people do not have it from the time they take the job to the time they retire. A cannon shooting experience.

"Okay, then please activate the artillery immediately and attack the black dragon."

"understand!"

The man stood up, saluted and replied, then immediately turned and left.

The middle-aged man also sighed at this time:

"Dismiss."

Chapter 1: Reappearance of the scene, or the result?

——While the senior officials on the floating island were hesitant about spending resources, the battle on the hunters' side was in full swing.

"The Blade Hunting Group's spaceship has crashed!"

Someone shouted, but no one listened at this time.

The figure of the black dragon hovered around them, and the deadly flames could not be extinguished even if they touched it.

The bow of the ship that was ignited by the flames could not be extinguished even with water flow. I could only watch helplessly as it slowly blackened and then burned.

Only then did the courage to unite as one fade from their hearts, and these people felt a sense of powerlessness slowly spreading.

"Ahhhh!"

Someone let out a crazy roar and fired the blast holes continuously, but they all failed under the influence of emotions.

It can be said that everyone is now covered in a feeling of fear, shrinking under the shadow of the black dragon.

——Except one person.

"calm down."

A big hand slapped their heads, and Shengli stood up and pushed him away.

After loading six cannonballs in an orderly manner, he aimed at the black dragon flying in the air, and with the help of the momentary light from the explosion, he suddenly pulled out the lever.

boom boom boom...

Explosions sounded one after another, and at the same time, the sound and light of explosions appeared on Mercer's body six times in a row.

Blood flowed out from the wound, and Mercer's expression became serious unknowingly.

This group of people is completely different from those in the past. The crew members in each spacecraft are very skilled in cooperating, and the helmsman also has superb skills in deflecting the ship's hull. Although he is not agile at all, he can always control the movement of the ship. Damage is reduced to a minimum.

And in this close battle, they seemed to have mastered a certain rhythm, roaming, observing, filling in artillery fire and dodging the spacecraft, all to the extreme.

It is no exaggeration to say that it was the "rhythm" of these hunters that put Mercer into a bitter battle.

But the good thing is that although Mercer felt difficult, it was not to the extent that his life was in danger.

He looked at the man who grinned wildly at him, opened his mouth and spit out fireballs.

The moment he saw Mercer move his neck, Shengli started to move, immediately let go of the cannon and flew away, hiding far away.

After rolling around on the ground, he straightened up on his knees and looked at the fort that was lit by flames.

The blazing dragon's breath scorched the entire area, and the surrounding crew members who had no time to dodge were lying on the ground and wailing heartbreakingly, while the bright flames illuminated the night sky.

If such a scene were seen from the ground, it would probably be a shining star - Shengli even had time to think this, but at the same time, he also patted his comrade who was limp on the side.

"Hey, lying on the ground will not make you safer. Only when you face the enemy can you have a chance of survival. Get up."

"——It can't be defeated! It can't be defeated! It's too strong. With our current combat power, we simply can't defeat the black dragon!"

He was trembling and shouting, his expression was extremely frustrated, and his eyes were filled with defeat as he lost the will to fight.

"Ha, that's right..." Shengli laughed, still half-kneeling and looking around. The firepower of the others attracted the black dragon, causing it to flash and move in the air.

"I said, do you really think so?"

In this sky filled with artillery fire, Shengli squatted beside him leisurely and asked.

"Really! I don't want to fight anymore. It's too scary. It won't die even after being hit so many times. It doesn't feel tired even now. What kind of monster is this black dragon!"

As soon as he finished speaking, the fireball accompanied by the explosion hit their hull, causing the man to scream in horror.

"--wrong!"

Who knew that Victory in this situation would slap the man's face with his hands, forcing him to look at his wanton smile.

"I'm talking about 'you'! What do you think! What I need is your own thoughts, not just drifting with the crowd like those tool men hiding on the floating island, nor are your thoughts changed by the force of the outside world. These It has nothing to do with you. What I want is you. What is your real purpose now!"

Under the forceful momentum of victory, the man's teeth trembled a few times, but finally he shed weak tears: "I... want to go home, it doesn't matter even if I am no longer a hunter, I don't want to die... .I want to live..."

"now it's right!"

After hearing these words, Shengli did not show any disappointment at all. Instead, he grinned excitedly, revealing two rows of teeth:

"Let me tell you bad news and good news. The bad news is that we don't have any choice now and can only fight with the black dragon; the good news is that you have such a strong desire until now, so take action! No matter you Whether you go home to find your mother to hug you or continue to be carefree somewhere, you can only complete it after killing the black dragon."

Shengli stood up, pushed away the gunners on the side of the ship who were aiming at the Black Dragon, stood behind the fort, and shouted fanatically towards the Black Dragon:

"Hey! Black Dragon, look over here!"

Scarlet vertical pupils faced it, and under the strong pressure, the words of victory did not tremble at all:

"——I want to make a lot of money and eat a big meal! I eat and spit out every bite! I fall in love with ten women every day and kiss one in exchange for one! So! I want to win the battle with you!"

crazy!The crew members who collapsed on the ground and other members of the hunting group listened to his words in disbelief. It was hard to imagine how much mental stimulation this man had received to say such words in the middle of a battle.

However, his words are not the epitome of other people's wishes. They all accept the crusade mission for a certain purpose, for money, for reputation... It's just that in the battle with the black dragon, this kind of His ideas were ruthlessly destroyed, and he was the only one who always maintained his straightforward desires.

When facing the black dragon's dive, Shengli suddenly pushed out the lever, and the sound of cannonballs rang out one after another, passing around Mercer who was quickly dodging.

Victory's attack lost its effect here, and at the same time, torrential flames began to flash from the black dragon's mouth.

However, the next moment, when Shengli himself felt the burning sensation of the dragon's breath, he revealed a ferocious smile.

"According to plan, now!"

Two spaceships shot out anchor-like chains on the left and right, fixing Mercer's body in the air. At the same time, another spaceship approached behind him, and the chains with barbs pierced the softer wings of the black dragon. The membrane trapped his wings.

The dragon's breath passed by him, his victorious smile became even crazier, and at the same time he shouted:

"Dragon hunting stake! Open it for me!"

ka ka ka-

As soon as he finished speaking, in Mercer's eyes, this strange spaceship began to deform to a certain extent.

——Several thick metal baffles rose up from the bow of the spacecraft, and at the same time, the bow also opened to both sides, exposing the structure inside.

A huge dark hole with several spiral riflings inside.

Mercer was familiar with this scene. He had experienced it once a long time ago. In that blow, his body was pierced and he almost died. He had to rely on the ability of [Regeneration] to survive.

But now, this device looked more powerful than that time. A round pile as wide as Mercer's body stretched out, with a circle of spiral patterns on the tip, and began to spin in front of Mercer, making a harsh sound. The buzz.

"Roar!"

The scene in front of him stirred up not so good memories in him. Mercer roared, and flames spurted out of his mouth, but they were all blocked by the metal baffles on the spacecraft.

"Tianxuan, charge me!"

The spacecraft adjusted its position, and then the propeller at the stern burst into flames, aiming at Mercer's chest and rushing forward against the flames. Shengli stood in front of the baffle, looked at the red metal baffle, and let out a high-pitched roar. Charge horn.

At the same time, there were crazy looks in the eyes of Shengli and Mercer. This was their or the enemy's trump card. Who is the winner will be revealed in an instant.

boom!

Chapter 1: Resistance!

——The deafening collision vibrated in everyone's eardrums, accompanied by the roar of the black dragon, and many people covered their ears in unison.

But what no one was allowed to ignore was that they stared at the scene in front of them, watching the black dragon's chest violently collide with the dragon hunting stake.

In the spiral pattern where no shadow can be seen, the contact surface between the dragon hunting stake and the black dragon emits dazzling sparks, releasing extremely dazzling light and heat.
