Chapter 380 [Silver Wing の Fierce Star] - The Sky Comet Dragon Appears

"Next time... attack us... kill... understand?" Guta communicated in animal language to the group of peach-haired beasts and the completely autistic peach-haired beast king with his back turned to him.

The peach-haired beasts nodded in horror, and then carefully distanced themselves from the hunters.

Varan, who was walking by, looked at the ancient tower with admiration.

"I didn't expect you to understand animal language, Guta?"

"A little understanding, a little understanding~" Guta said modestly that next time he encounters such an occasion, he can continue to let himself go.

This kind of good thing that can enjoy 100% exclusive combat experience, just let him come.

After the battle, the ability of Guta's [Ancient Man's Body] also quietly came to LV32.

Although there is still a long way to go before the qualitative change of LV35, Guta believes that as long as there are enough battles and the opponent is strong enough, he should be able to complete this small goal before the start of the [Natural Disaster Trial] half a year later.

And then, leaving aside those skills that are full of vulgar jokes... From this peach-haired beast king, Guta got a decent ability.

【Elementary Poison Immunity】

[Basic immunity to conventional toxins, increased resistance to advanced toxins]

Originally, the ancient pagoda also had [Poison Resistance LV1] obtained from the poisonous dog dragon, but now it is completely merged by this ability.

Although it can only be immune to some basic toxins, at least it is completely immune, not to mention that it has enhanced its own poison resistance, which is already very good for a monster with the strength of Peach Hair Beastmaster.

Guta accepted this ability contentedly, and then continued to move forward with the large army.

……

Two hours later, looking at the steeply rising terrain and the increasingly rugged mountain road, the two persons in charge, Varan and Niko, discussed for a while, and finally decided to return to the Dragon Sense Ship temporarily.

If there are only a small number of hunters, they can rely on climbing to reach higher places, but they are a large force now, so it is not suitable to do so.

What's more, in such an unfamiliar area, the risk of acting alone is too great.

Didn't you see the silver fire dragon and the electric dragon that they encountered one after another when they came... They are basically terrifying monsters of natural disaster level. This place at an altitude of 2000 meters is far more lively than it looks, and it is also much more dangerous.

Back on the spaceship, the fixed anchor cables were retracted one by one, and the white-bearded captain with a pipe in his mouth manipulated the spaceship, trying to move to the mountain they hadn't reached before.

But in the middle of the trip, the increasingly violent storm at the top of the mountain range almost knocked the Dragon Sense Ship into the air.

If the old captain hadn't lowered the flight altitude in time, I'm afraid all of them would have suffered an air crash by this time.

"I can't continue to ascend. The power of the spaceship is not enough. In the face of that level of high-air flow, it is easy to happen just now." Looking at the group of hunters who were still in shock, and the researchers of the Longli Academy who were lying here and there, The captain frowned.

"Can't you go around from another place?" Varan slowly put down Nicole in his arms and looked at the captain.

After all, Nicole is a cat orc, and his weight is too light. In the situation just now, he would be blown away by a violent storm if he was not careful. This kind of protection method is really helpless.

Fortunately, Nicole is not someone who cares about such things.

Shaking his head, the old captain put down his pipe and exhaled a circular smoke ring.

"In other places, it is true that the airflow will be more stable, but this is not a good thing... It will only be more difficult for the spacecraft to ascend, because there is not enough wind to rely on to float up."

"Our current power cannot support the spaceship to fly above 2500 meters. The current height of 2300 meters is already the limit of the Dragon Sense Ship...unless the power can be further strengthened." The old captain said matter-of-factly.

After bowing his head and thinking for a while, Varan nodded helplessly.

"I will contact the headquarters and the shipyards of each village in the future. If we want to strengthen the flying ship, we may need to collect some special materials... Fortunately, there are so many advanced hunters on board, so we don't have to worry about hunting."

"Well, are we heading back now, or..." After discussing the matter of power, the old captain glanced at the people around him who were starting to tidy up the deck, and asked in a low voice.

The air crash just now may have caused quite a bit of haze in many people's hearts... According to his thinking, he should actually return to the ground at this time for a temporary rest.

"Hmm..." Varan also understood what the old captain meant.

"Let's observe it for another night temporarily. It's best to observe the red comet at close range. It's rare to come to the sky once. Let's observe the situation both day and night... so that we can make corresponding preparations when we come next time."

After deliberating for a while, Varan finally decided to stay another night.

Nicole on the side also meant the same thing.

"Okay, but I suggest that everyone gather on the deck at night, so that in case of any accidents, you can have time to deal with it... At worst, after dawn the next day, go back to the ground and rest." The old captain suggested.

"Well, you have rich experience in this area, we will listen to your arrangement."

……

night time
A group of hunters sat around the deck, vigilantly monitoring the situation in all directions.

It is said to be monitoring, but in fact, it is more to listen with ears.

For fear that the light source would attract other monsters to attack, no fire was lit on the Dragon Awareness Ship, so the surroundings were almost completely invisible.

At this time, hearing is far more important than vision.

Guta propped his cheek with one hand, and swept across the barely visible night outside, drowsy.

Suddenly, a soft touch came from behind, and then Weiwei's surprised voice sounded.

"Who?"

"I~" Guta said weakly.

"Oh, that's fine."

Wei Wei hadn't been quiet for a while, then she poked Guta's back boredly, "Are we really going to guard the whole night?"

"Otherwise? If you don't feel ashamed, you can sleep... But let me remind you first, you snore quite loudly when you sleep, and occasionally talk in your sleep."

Guta patted his cheek, pulled himself together, and said casually.

"Ah, is there...why don't I know?"

"You are asleep, you can know a der!"

While talking, suddenly, someone shouted in the darkness.

"Due north... red comet!"

Almost at the same time, everyone stood up and looked towards the north of the Longshi ship, that is, the direction on the left side of the ship.

In the dense night, a scarlet meteor trailing a flame like a tail is passing through the airspace about a kilometer away at an extremely terrifying speed.

The surging sound waves and air waves, as if about to shatter the endless night sky, suddenly crossed a thousand meters and reached the ears of everyone on the Longzhi Ship.

"This is definitely faster than the speed of sound, and far beyond it!"

The ancient tower looked at the red comet, which was definitely a living body, in shock. It drew a strange upward curve in mid-air, and rushed to the place they couldn't reach before. To the top of the peak at the end.

That terrifying speed left a gradually fading red trail on everyone's retinas.

Looking at the red comet that had completely disappeared into the high clouds, Varan was excited and said tremblingly:
"You can't be wrong, this guy... is definitely the ancient dragon species that was once considered extinct and disappeared for thousands of years."

"[Silver Wing の Ominous Star]...Sky Comet Dragon!"
