Monster Hunter: This Fire Dragon has characteristics

Chapter 471 Hard Interception

The interception process was very tortuous, but fortunately the final result was good. The commander-in-chief, who had been worried for a long time and whose nerves had been tense, suddenly relaxed and could no longer control his expression, and laughed heartily.

It’s not easy, it’s really not easy!

But the rewards were great!

This is the first time that humans have successfully intercepted a super-giant ancient dragon of this level. If it is placed in history, it is definitely an existence that can be written on a separate page!

What's more, in addition to the historical significance, they can learn more through this Molten Mountain Dragon, including but not limited to the data of the Ancient Dragon Ferry, super giant ancient dragons, etc.!

These data will help to unlock the secrets of the Ancient Dragon Ferry and confirm the past conclusions of many scholars, thereby increasing the human group's ability to respond more effectively when facing super-giant ancient dragons such as the Molten Mountain Dragon!
"What's the situation with the Molten Mountain Dragon? How much time do we expect to have?"

After venting his emotions thoroughly, the commander-in-chief quickly regained his composure, took out a bottle of medicine from a box beside the command office and drank it. After feeling that his physical fatigue had subsided a lot under the effect of the medicine, he reported to the scholars on the other side who were compiling the various data sent back by the investigators.

"This Molten Mountain Dragon is really too old, and its physical strength has already reached its limit. This time, unless there is external force stimulating its radiator pipes and the volcano on its back, it is expected to rest for 12 to 24 hours before waking up again, so we don't actually have much time."

The deputy director of the Ecological Research Institute who came with the team carefully put the statistical data aside and gave an urgent number.

"Is the time so short?"

The commander-in-chief rubbed his chin, thinking.

The process of intercepting the Molten Dragon was full of luck. The investigation team first attacked it with various large machines to make it feel threatened and put it on alert.

In this state, it can not only consume the Molten Dragon's physical strength, but also cause a certain amount of damage to it, forcing it to further consume its physical strength.

A Molten Dragon carrying a volcano on its back consumes much more energy when moving than other super-giant ancient dragons. Therefore, in order to save energy, most Molten Dragons remain silent except for sleeping and eating. In addition, due to the long lifespan of ancient dragons, people living in a village near a Molten Dragon will often discover one day that the volcano next to their village has disappeared after several generations.
After forcing the Molten Dragon in this way, the obstruction of the first line of defense plus the force of the fixed crossbow bed can force the Molten Dragon, and it will have to consume more physical strength if it wants to continue moving forward.

Everything was going smoothly and everything was proceeding according to the original plan.

But unexpectedly, when they successfully restrained the Molten Dragon and began to exploit its physical strength, an accident happened.

A Nergigante that was obviously smaller than the one in the records suddenly appeared and attacked the Molten Dragon without any explanation.

Although the little Nergigante is inferior in size and strength to the Molten Dragon, it is like a grasshopper madly beating a centenarian.

Physical attacks are secondary, but mentally speaking, the Molten Dragon really cannot accept it!
In order to drive away the "grasshopper", before the investigation team could arrange hunters to take action, the Molten Dragon directly erupted like a volcano. With a large amount of magma rolling, the Nergigante was indeed driven away from its body, but at the same time, the defense line of the investigation team was broken through faster in such molten flames. The little Nergigante was driven away by the Molten Dragon in this way, but it still had some hope and circled in the sky, trying to find new attack opportunities.

At this moment, in the impression of the investigation team, Xia Guagua, who was always steady and lazy, became unusually excited and rushed towards the little Nergigante with an extremely excited quack.

He beat up this young-looking little Nergigante violently, and then chased it away to who knows where.

The rapid breach of the first line of defense almost caused the investigation team's plan to collapse, and the volcano on the back of the Molten Dragon became active during this eruption, and the whole dragon was somewhat excited.

Fortunately, at this time the commander-in-chief immediately made a decision and took the risk of sending a large number of well-equipped elite hunters to enter the Molten Dragon's back to find its heat dissipation organs and destroy them, forcing the Molten Dragon to actively and forcibly suppress its state of excitement in order to dissipate the excess accumulated heat in its body and reduce the burden of the huge life energy on its body.

Fortunately, this group of hunters were really powerful. They managed to withstand the occasional eruption of volcanic magma and destroyed a large number of small heat dissipation organs on the back of the Lava Dragon, causing it to enter a silent state.

This is also the greatest thing that a hunter's personal force can do when facing a super-giant ancient dragon like the Molten Dragon, which can be regarded as a mobile ecosystem.

The commander-in-chief once again thanked the Ancient Tree. Because of the existence of the Blazing Fire Village, there were sufficient logistical resources. And also because of the existence of the Blazing Fire Village, considering the logistical capacity, they arranged for the fifth group, which was twice the number of people originally planned.

Only with so many manpower can two lines of defense be built in such a short time.

The second line of defense lived up to its mission and withstood the attack of the Molten Dragon that had forced itself to calm down. In the end, it consumed more energy than expected and its life energy became overactive due to its previous excitement.

As a last resort, the Molten Dragon could only enter a short period of sleep on the spot. While recovering its strength, it also tried its best to suppress the life energy that was becoming increasingly out of control.

"If we reinforce our defenses, can we extend our investigation time?"

The commander-in-chief looked at the members of the Fourth Regiment who were coordinating supplies, only to see them slowly shaking their heads.

"Sorry, I can't do that." The members of the fourth group looked at the notebook in their hands. What was written on it was not words! It was clearly the blood and sweat of the fourth group! !
"In order not to affect today's interception battle, we stopped transporting supplies last night. Even if we send out a transmission signal later, we really can't gather enough supplies to intercept the Molten Mountain Dragon again in such a short time."

"is it?"

The commander-in-chief sighed, thought for a while and made a decision: "In this case, let's speed up the data collection process. After the Molten Mountain Dragon wakes up, we will take the initiative to remove the restraints of the fixed crossbow bed, increase the corresponding tracking manpower, and find a way to find out his final destination! I have a hunch that the place where he stayed last must be the most critical place in the Ancient Dragon Ferry!"

The deputy director of the Institute of Ecology nearby rolled his eyes excitedly when he heard this!
This increasingly shameless commander-in-chief said all the conclusions they had painstakingly discussed!!
