Monster Hunter: I can hear the monsters' thoughts

Chapter 243: This is how the trap is used

The male Thunder Wolf Dragon lost his composure when he thought that the red bird might come back to steal the nest.

No, I have to chase it away! I have to give it a good beating so it'll learn its lesson!
Otherwise, the safety of its mate and offspring will be threatened!
Thinking of this, the Thunder Wolf Dragon threw aside the trace of uneasiness that came from instinct, and rushed towards the direction where the sound came from again. In its view, it was just a red bird, and it could suppress it with just a raised claw.

But when the Thunder Wolf Dragon rushed out of the valley and entered a lush forest, things suddenly changed.

The fragile ground could not bear the strong body of the Thunder Wolf Dragon. Its feet suddenly felt empty and it fell directly into a deep pit. The extremely tough and sticky net in the deep pit rebounded instantly and wrapped it up before the Thunder Wolf Dragon could react, making it difficult for it to struggle out of the pit for a while.

Almost at the same time when the Thunder Wolf Dragon fell into the trap, a loud explosion suddenly came from above. Under the impact of the explosion, the already loose and fragile rock wall on the cliff collapsed, forming countless boulders and rocks of all sizes that fell towards the center of the valley. With such a huge momentum, if the Thunder Wolf Dragon was hit hard, it would be seriously injured if not killed.

At this critical moment, the Thunder Wolf Dragon reacted very quickly. The entanglement of the big net made it unable to struggle free for a while. Seeing the rocks rolling down and no hope of escaping from the deep pit, it actually gave up struggling and lowered its head and tail, curling its strong body into a ball, leaving only the strongest back exposed on the ground.

The next moment, rocks rolled down, raising rumbling smoke and dust, burying the Thunder Wolf Dragon in the deep pit.

On the cliff, Brave stuck his head out, looked at the smoke and dust below, and muttered to himself:

"Did it succeed?"

Lin Lin and Ye Zi were watching Yanchen as nervously as he was. It was Ye Zi who had lured the Thunder Wolf Dragon over by imitating its howl. As for Lin Lin, he had been patiently waiting for the Thunder Wolf Dragon's arrival, quietly gathering his strength.

From the current perspective, their trap design was quite successful. Even if they couldn't take the Thunder Wolf Dragon away directly with a set of smooth combos, they would definitely cause serious enough damage to it. At least the next battle should be easier.

Soon, a gentle breeze blew away the smoke and dust.

Looking at the piles of fallen rocks where the Thunder Wolf Dragon was originally, the three of them felt relieved almost at the same time. Could it be that the problem was solved directly?

The next moment, the pile of rocks suddenly trembled slightly, and then the amplitude of the tremor became larger and larger. Finally, accompanied by a loud bang, the pile of rocks exploded from the middle, and a giant blue wolf jumped out from it.

The giant wolf's azure eyes were filled with rage. The two rows of brown and yellow shells that were originally neatly arranged on its back were shattered, and its pale electrified fur was stained red with blood. Even the scales in some places had completely disappeared, turning into a blur of flesh and blood. There were still crackling electric lights there, and it was unknown how many insect corpses were mixed in.

However, only its back looked miserable. From the front, the damage to this Thunder Wolf Dragon was not very serious. There were not many signs of injury on its limbs, tail, or head.

Almost as soon as it landed, the Thunder Wolf Dragon's eyes locked onto the human not far ahead.

The intelligence of the Thunder Wolf Dragon is not low. The moment it stepped on the trap, it realized that it was an ambush. The collapse of the rocks was not accidental, but was done intentionally by some other life form!
Therefore, the moment the furious Thunder Wolf Dragon saw the culprit who caused its injuries, it launched an attack directly, even completely forgetting to use roars to intimidate.

The Thunder Wolf Dragon's limbs erupted with immense force, leaping high into the air and crashing down towards Lin Lin. Simultaneously, a striking electric current swirled around one of its raised front paws. Facing the Thunder Wolf Dragon's furious attack, Ye Zi had no intention of confronting it head-on. She was only a three-star rank, and while her combat instincts were excellent, Lin Lin had no intention of letting her engage in a direct confrontation with the Thunder Wolf Dragon.

So she simply tapped the ground lightly with the insect stick in her hand, and the whole person leaped up. She then released a Kinsect, and her body soared up a certain height - for a monster like the Thunder Wolf Dragon that cannot fly, it has control of the air and it is not easy for it to get hurt.

Lin Lin also had no intention of a head-on confrontation. He stared at the Thunder Wolf Dragon pouncing towards him and estimated its landing point almost instantly. If he simply relied on rolling, it would be difficult to avoid the opponent's attack range. If it was before going to Yanhuo Village, Lin Lin's only choice would be to fly.

But now, he has a better way to deal with it.

At the moment before the Thunder Wolf Dragon landed, Lin Lin threw a Kinsect directly backwards. Seeing that the sharp claw tried its best but could only pass half a meter in front of him, Lin Lin released the iron wire, drew out the sword in mid-air, and chopped down at the dragon claw.

The battle was about to break out, and at this time, Brave was still climbing down the vines on the cliff.

The Thunder Wolf Dragon missed its first claw and simply turned sideways after landing, then charged towards Lin Lin with a powerful Iron Mountain Lean.

Lin Lin reacted quickly. Knowing he couldn't dodge this move, he quickly inserted his sword into his shield and held it in front of him.

"boom!"

A dull collision sound was heard, and Lin Lin slid back two or three meters. Feeling the power transmitted back from his arm, he couldn't help but grin.

Was it because the falling rocks hurt him that his power was affected? This force doesn't seem as strong as I imagined.
Ye Zi was flying in the air, and the Thunder Wolf Dragon didn't pay attention to her for a while, so she seized the opportunity and threw the Kinsect downwards, and used the Dragon Subduing Technique to poke the bloody wound on the back of the Thunder Wolf Dragon.

Although the hunting insect had not had time to absorb the essence, the injured area had lost the protection of its shell scales. Even without the monster essence to strengthen itself, the damage caused by a stick would definitely be considerable.

"Ouch!"

Just as it repelled Lin Lin with an Iron Mountain Lean move, the Thunder Wolf Dragon was about to continue its attack and completely tear this damned human to pieces, but it suddenly felt a piercing pain in its back, which interrupted its movement on the spot and almost caused it to lose its balance.

Ye Zi held the insect stick that was deeply inserted into the dragon's back, feeling the Thunder Wolf Dragon struggling hard to throw her off its back. While silently gritting her teeth to hold on, an idea suddenly emerged in her mind.

This was her second time riding on the back of a Thunder Wolf Dragon, and this time the other party had not yet entered the super-charged state, so it would not shock her to the point of making her feel uncomfortable all over.

So is there any way for her to take advantage of this opportunity to climb onto the dragon's back and cause more significant damage to it?
