I draw skills in Monster Hunter World

Chapter 342 A Last Stand

Want to fight it?

Everyone retreated early, and it was the only one left at the origin.

Hucha~
Just as the female hunter was thinking, a piece of meat torn from under the shell was thrown towards her by the Nergigante.

What do you mean?
Can you give me some? Who would eat this?

Faced with the completely non-hostile Nergigante, the female hunter gradually relaxed her vigilance, put away her shield axe and put it behind her back.

call!call!
The well-fed Nergigante spread its wings and flew into the sky.

The mouth, with juice flowing out, curves upward as if smiling.

After a roar of excitement, it quickly disappeared into the horizon.

The huntress calmed down and thought back to the encounter.

She discovered that this Nergigante had never hurt her, but instead provided her with all kinds of assistance to the best of her ability.

Guidance will also be provided when the exploration of the New World reaches a deadlock.

Like a reliable friend
The female hunter shared her idea with the people who came, but received no approval.

Everyone believes that the strange Nergigante entity has mysterious ecological characteristics.

But hunting and devouring the Tiandihuangtilong is completely in the nature of the monster.

The female hunter struggled for a while and decided to find out the truth through tracking and investigation.

After all, just the fact that Nergigante is so powerful is already of extremely high research value.

Nergigante seemed to realize it as well and started to guide it once again.

A few days later, the female hunter boarded a ship back to the original continent in pursuit of the investigation.

Danglanglang~
In the early morning, the bronze bell on the bow rang, and the Hero set sail against the wind.

The supply reserves in the wild camp are running low.

There are no hunting areas nearby, so timely replenishment can be carried out.

But everyone still filled the cargo hold of the Henren to its full capacity and waved goodbye on the ground.

For everyone, this airship that is about to set sail is their last hope.

Four days later, the Ruthless arrived over Moriyama.

The breeze blows across the green grass, and everything is still full of vitality.

This was the area where Li Ming encountered the least damage along the way.

A large number of airships were hovering above the village of Kokote, and the Henren was hovering on the outskirts.

As soon as Li Ming jumped and landed on the ground, a large number of hunters, familiar or unfamiliar, surrounded him.

After listening to information from all sides, I quickly understood the current situation.

Currently, all stationed hunters are managed and deployed by the Kokote Village Branch.

There are three categories of functions.

The vanguard is on standby and observing on the periphery, ready to fight at any time.

An engineering team sneaked into the city of Xiudelei and attempted to repair the city’s defense facilities.

Yu Senqiu is a full-time hunter and is also responsible for the logistics team that transports supplies.

Of course, if the Black Dragon makes any unusual movements again.

All participating hunters will become vanguards and fight with all their might.

There are currently two support forces on standby in the surrounding area.

One is the Longli Academy’s combat airship fleet.

The chief researcher Dewen is in charge of commanding the operations.

The other is Elgard's array of heavy ships.

The operation was commanded by Admiral Fiorina.

As expected of the birthplace of hunters, they could make such careful arrangements even for the battle against the forbidden black dragon.

Li Ming sighed in his heart.

Most of the hunters present were from the logistics team. Seeing that everyone was looking at him expectantly, it seemed that they wanted him to say something.

Li Ming thought for a moment and said three words.

"It will win."

After inspiring everyone to cheer, they continued to prepare for the battle.

Arriving at the guild branch counter, Li Ming received a detailed combat deployment and list of hunters.

As for the functional team he wants to join, the branch president said that Li Ming can choose it himself.

Chu Ying, Ni Shuang, Wood, Lindsay, Vashou, Sophia, Selina.
Almost all the familiar names participated in the vanguard team, so Li Ming made his choice easily.

"By the way, President, the Black Dragon will launch an operation soon."

Li Ming gave a reminder.

The branch's Young Dragon President seemed a little surprised by this information.

Because Li Ming had just arrived and had not even visited the vicinity of Xiudelei City, this judgment felt to him to be unfounded.

"Can I ask why?"

The young dragon leader asked tentatively.

“The reason is that I’m here.”

The other party was stunned for a moment, then stood up and said goodbye, preparing to fight and evacuate the villagers.

The appearance of the black dragon made the guild unable to control the fire dragon breeding season.

In addition, most of the habitable areas have been burned by flames, making it impossible for fire dragons to migrate.

The seriously exceeded quantity caused the region to fall into ecological collapse.

Many of the fire dragons filling the sky have launched indiscriminate hunting attacks.

But even so, when the Henren approached, the fire dragons still flew away from the surrounding airspace as if they were escaping for their lives.

"That dark cloud covering the city of Shudre, could it be a measure to prevent it from returning?"

Li Ming, who was behind the bulwark, put down his telescope.

He felt that the Black Dragon must have made many attempts to resist the call of the Ancestral Dragon's return.

The space cracks hidden above the city of Shudre and the dark clouds blocking the sun may be one of the measures.

On the bare mountain ground, the vanguard and engineering team were stationed in the outer camp and were soon discovered and locked down.

As the Henren landed, the corpse of a male fire dragon was also unloaded.

Bubu, who was stirring the thick soup in the stew pot with his paws on the cargo box, saw Li Ming and the cats get off the airship.

He immediately threw away his kitchen apron and ran over.

"Li Ming! Duoduo meow!"

"It's Boo Boo Meow!"

Seeing this, Midoduo waved his claws and shouted.

The two cats rushed over to hug each other, and Bubu said excitedly: "It's great to see that everyone is okay, meow!"

"How are Chu Ying and Ni Shuang doing?"

Li Ming asked.

"When the black dragon first appeared, it had a brief battle with the vanguard team. Everyone was injured. Fortunately, it's not a big problem now, meow."

"That's good."

Li Ming was finally relieved when he heard that there were no serious casualties.

"But according to Chu Ying's latest observations, she said that the Black Dragon's mood in recent days seems to have suddenly become extremely excited, meow, just like a hunter has cut precious gemstones from a monster."

Bubu introduced.

"I've understood it these days."

Li Ming found that Zulong's death was definitely great news for Black Dragon. However, it was also thanks to Black Dragon's power that he failed to return, otherwise he would be the one in trouble.

"Let the cats stew the male Rathalos. Please also help cook the frozen Hierophanthus meat in the warehouse."

"Are there any quantity requirements, meow?"

"The decisive battle is imminent, let's do it."

Li Ming felt that even if he wanted to continue to deploy maneuvers.

The black dragon, sensing Ming Black Dragon's approach, would certainly not sit still and wait for death.

Bubu turned around and walked to the center of the cafeteria and rang the brass bell with a cat's paw mark.

A large number of Elmeru immediately rushed to assemble.

Many of these cats carry cat cannons on their backs.

Obviously, they were all members of the vanguard team that left the warm camp.

The cats immediately put on chef costumes and started cooking together.

Inside the tent, Chu Ying was suppressing and mixing ammunition at the table.

Ni Shuang was doing strength training while holding documents in one hand and a hunting horn in the other.

After being stationed in the wild for a long time, the two men, covered in mud, looked a little haggard.

Seeing the long shadow outside the tent illuminated by the setting sun, they both turned their heads at the same time.

bang~
Li Ming was knocked down by two people.

"Don't be so excited."

"If we were not unable to leave here, we might have already set out and gone deep into the secret realm of the ancient pagoda."

Chu Ying said with tears in her eyes.

Ni Shuang reached out and pulled Li Ming up, seeming to have a lot to say.

But in the end, I just sighed and said, "It's good that I'm back."

A written report is certainly not as good as the statement of the person involved.

Li Ming learned some information about the Black Dragon from the two people.

When he told them his plan, they were particularly shocked.

"I thought the blue star that showed the way was a concept that only existed in legends."

Ni Shuang exclaimed.

"You said that if the black dragon enters the red flame dragon form, all combatants except you must evacuate. What about you?"

Chu Ying asked with some concern.

"Welcome to the arrival of destiny."

"We can also come together."

Ni Shuang's tone was firm.

"The black dragon in the form of a red flame dragon is no longer something that conventional forces can contend with. Let's think positively. Maybe under everyone's concentrated fire, the black dragon will soon die. Or maybe the information I got is wrong, and there is no such thing as a red flame dragon."

"But it seems like your intelligence has never been wrong."

Ni Shuang recalled.

Li Ming's eyes darkened and he was a little speechless.

"Okay, I will convey the deployment to other members participating in the battle, but no matter what form the opponent takes, I will fight to the end."

Chu Ying made her attitude clear and did not give Li Ming a chance to refute, then left the tent to convey the deployment.

Ni Shuang took off one of his hand guards, revealing the back of his hand which looked old and dated, which was inconsistent with his age.

"There are probably not many hunts left that I can fully participate in. I cannot retreat from a battle that will decide the fate of humanity."

"Ah~~"

Li Ming could only sigh helplessly and respect his teammates' choice.

In fact, he could understand it, because if he lost this desperate battle.

Even if humans can survive in the cracks, their situation will only become more miserable.

after an hour.

Bang!Bang!
Outside the tent, several red flares suddenly rose into the air and exploded.

"The engineering team that escaped from the city issued a warning! The black dragon suddenly began to burn the ruins of the city and became extremely agitated!"

A loud shout rang out in the camp.

Boom! Boom!
The warning gong was constantly sounded.

"The hunter didn't rush in and provoke the other party. This shouldn't be the case."

The elderly dragon scholar looked at the recent report records with a puzzled look on his face.

The hunters who were eating put down their knives and forks, stood up and rushed to the assembly.

"There are still a lot! Please take some to eat on the road!"

While Bubu was shouting, he distributed large pieces of barbecued male fire dragon meat.

"Bubu! Xuanhuilong cuisine!"

Li Ming shouted.

"Uh! Sorry! That piece of Hiruzen meat can't be roasted or boiled. I thought I would have time to slice it into thin slices before cooking."

Bubu didn't expect that the hunters and cats would attack so soon.

"I was negligent. It does take a lot of effort to cook that piece of meat."

The meat of the Higurashi is obviously not a legal dish in the guild's cat meal.

Li Ming wanted to try food in order to improve his fire resistance, thus ignoring the difficulty of cooking.

"If we grill it at the right temperature, it should still be in time. Bubu! Midodo! Barbecue dance!"

"Ah meow?"

The two cats were stunned when they heard Li Ming's request.

"Hurry, or I won't be able to grasp the timing well."

The two cats looked at each other, humming while jumping and twisting rhythmically.

Li Ming grabbed the piece of meat with one hand, and blue flames shot out from his hand.

The roasted Xuanhui Dragon meat soon turned yellow and oozes oil.

Deng!
A piece of golden roasted meat was held high.

Before the two cats finished celebrating, Li Ming, who was eating barbecue, had already run away with Ni Shuangchuying.

Midoduo carried the re-sticked cat statue on his back, and Bubu took the ammunition backpack and got on the cat chariot, following closely behind.

In the darkest core beneath the clouds, flames surged and burned.

The ruined city area, filled with ruins, is illuminated in red.

Li Ming opened the city map mapped by the engineering team and quickly found the square in front of the city gate.

The location of the battle between the two sides is also one of the key factors in the overlap of time and space.

Rail rapid-fire cannon, heavy artillery, heavy crossbow, double-shot dragon-slaying spear, and heat-resistant protective gate.

Looking at the map of the City Gate Square, there are many marks of repaired city defense facilities.

Li Ming couldn't help but express his admiration for the members of the engineering team.

However, the Black Dragon does not have a fixed appearance area, so if you want to fight there, you must guide it.

But this is not a difficult task for Li Ming.

Climbing up the charred city gate square, Li Ming raised his head and shouted towards the city area where flames were flashing.

"Miraporeas! Come out!"
