Hunting Cards! Star Dragon

When a bird-dragon sheds its wings, it is transforming into a true dragon, shedding the bird part and retaining the dragon part.

Hidden beneath the burnt wings are sharp claws burned by the flames.

[Fire Blade Dragon Hunting Level LV25]

After shedding the feathers and replacing them with blades, the level increased by 10, reaching the hunting level of 25, a difficulty that even Jiu Yue had never encountered.

"Be careful, Hoshimi!"

Shouting "love, bond, faith" and so on, the Fire Blade Dragon, which was seriously injured a second ago, swung the double blades evolved from its arms, sparks and lightning all the way, and slashed towards Xingjian, who was closest to it.

What followed was a dazzling clash of blades.

Xing Jian, who had no sword skills, just followed his instinctive reaction speed and used the sword in his hand to resist the fiery blade dragon's violent combo.

However, it was such a simple confrontation that stunned September.

This is so handsome!

Her long silver hair fluttered in the sword light surrounded by flames. Facing the life-threatening attack of the Fire Blade Dragon, Xingjian was able to remain expressionless and easily block all the crazy attacks with her katana.

Who says a katana can't be used for hunting?

Jiu Yue really wanted to broadcast this scene live to everyone in the world who doubted Tachi.

"No, now is not the time to be delusional."

It seems that Xingjian is able to defend himself easily, but in fact it is extremely dangerous.

Since there is no weapon card to support it, Xingjian's own defense is very low.

The opponent can make countless mistakes, but Xingjian can only make one mistake.

Thinking of this, Jiu Yue immediately shot three arrows in a row to provide cover.

However, after using the "Bow Charge" skill three times, ordinary arrow shots were easily blocked by the hard dragon blade.

The level gap between the armed forces and the hunting targets is too large, and even breaking through the defense is very difficult.

"There's no other choice but to resort to this trick."

Jiu Yue took out the entire quiver from his back, and there were still 32 arrows in it.

[Armament - Red Blood Dragon]'s second skill - "Full Burst".

Use once during the limited arming period to instantly fire all remaining ammunition. Arrows also count as ammunition.

The price of an ordinary feather arrow is 5z, and a full load of 32 arrows costs 160z.

Although it hurts, now is not the time to care about money.

"Wait, Jiuyue." Xingjian, who was about to use the bankruptcy strategy, stopped Jiuyue and said, "Leave this to me."

"Leave it to you? Don't be so stubborn, it's a level 25 monster."

"I will win in front of you." As the knife flashed, Xingjian's eyes became more serious.

Buried in the noise of the clashing blades, September, who was performing long-range attacks, completely failed to hear the exchange between the two during the confrontation.

No one could have imagined that Xingjian and Fire Blade Dragon were chatting while fighting.

Hoshimi: "Can dragons also understand love?"

Blade Dragon: "Only humans can't understand love."

Xingjian only felt a hot sensation on the pendant inside her shirt, which was close to her chest.

Blade Dragon: "But love can transcend race."

The burning sensation of the pendant suddenly disappeared.

The love mentioned in Erica's diary.

The girl who chases the stars loves herself, but Xingjian herself cannot understand that feeling.

This blank made Xingjian eager to find the answer.

"What exactly does that mean?"

"Remember, I'm only telling you this once. If you want to mate with her, that's love!"

This time, even Xingjian could clearly feel the abnormal fluctuations of the dragon claw pendant on his chest.

"……wrong."

This was obviously not the answer Xingjian wanted.

Zhan Dou's eyes became more serious, and Xing Jian felt a little regretful for asking this guy.

Such an answer seemed to insult the girl's feelings.

"I'll win and show you." Xingjian said this with anger in his tone.

The activation of the Dragon's Heart allows the power attached to the blade to reach a level far beyond what the Fiery Blade Dragon can withstand with each blow.

This guy was actually letting the water go before?

The Flame Blade Dragon felt that he had been deceived.

The reason why Xingjian was chosen to launch the attack first was the survival wisdom of the Fiery Blade Dragon Monster, and it also saw that Xingjian had no armed cards to provide defense.

I plan to quickly deal with the crispy ones and then slowly deal with the annoying archer.

I didn't expect that this crispy skin would be so hard to chew.

However, just as Jiuyue feared, the Flame Blade Dragon could make countless mistakes, but Xingjian could only make one mistake.

The despicable Blade Dragon deliberately let the double blades on his arms be deflected by the katana, hiding another way of attack.

Humans can only use weapons to attack, but monsters use all their organs as weapons.

Including the space in the lungs that stores thousand-degree high temperature flames.

——Fire Explosive Bomb.

The dragon's mouth opened suddenly and the fire bomb fired at close range was unavoidable and exploded directly on Xingjian's face.

“!!!” September’s pupils suddenly dilated when he saw this scene.

There has never been any record suggesting that the Firebird Dragon has this skill.

Perhaps it was an evolutionary mutation, or perhaps it was due to human arrogance that they did not thoroughly investigate the target.

In September's mind, Rina's advice before departure echoed.

"If you take the Flamingo Dragon's attack head-on without the protection of an Armed Card, you will die."

"Don't worry, I'm with him."

“Because you have such a carefree personality, I still worry about you.”)

Rina hit the nail on the head.

Xingjian didn't even have an armed card, yet I actually let him fight a level 25 monster alone.

Am I an idiot?

If Hoshimi died here, how would he explain to Rina?

September stood there in a daze, feeling more and more at a loss.

Looking at the flames exploding and spreading in front of it, the Fire Blade Dragon began to howl excitedly.

"It's done!"

"It didn't work!"

The familiar voice and answer came from the burning fire.

"See you!" Jiu Yue couldn't believe her ears.

"I told you I'll win, September!"

As the flames gradually dissipated, what the Fiery Blade Dragon saw was definitely the most terrifying scene in its life.

The ice-blue eyes inherited from the youngest daughter, peering through the flames, held a murderous intent that even the raging fire could not conceal.

Hoshimi, holding a katana in both hands, jumped out of the flames.

In fact, from the very beginning, September had misplaced the priorities.

Fire Blade Dragon can make countless mistakes, but Hoshimi can only make one?

It’s the opposite of Tiangang, brother.

The one who can make countless mistakes should be Hoshimi.

Even without the defensive power boost from the Armed Card, Xingjian is definitely not a fragile character that can be killed instantly at level 25.

If, let's say, there is such a setting in the game.

If the Fire Blade Dragon can see the Star's health bar.

Then it will definitely find that Xingjian’s health bar is very long, extremely long, so long that it breaks through the sky.

The flame-wrapped sword was aimed at the Fire Blade Dragon's mouth, which was wide open and defenseless due to the release of a skill.

The dragon claw pendant hidden in the chest was swaying with starlight, imitating Erica's moves in memory. Xingjian's knife pierced directly into the blade dragon's interior from the dragon's mouth.

“——『Dragon Flame: Dark Lantern Explosion』!!”

Even though it was an imitation of the ultimate move, it still penetrated deeply into the throat of the Fire Blade Dragon.

A large amount of blood gushed out of the throat, along with the still hot steam, and sprinkled on Xingjian's body, making her cheeks as white as a girl stained with a bright red of murderous intent.

"Love is so complicated."

Hoshimi pulled out the piercing sword, and blood gushed out like a fountain.

This time, no matter how much it shouted "love, bond, faith", the Fire Blade Dragon could not stand up again.

The spurting hot blood symbolizes its rapidly fleeting life.

He fell backwards and fell heavily to the ground. With the last bit of consciousness left, the Fire Blade Dragon looked up at the sky again.

It seemed to see the seven-colored wings flying in the distant sky.

It’s my goddess, Christiana.

You are still so beautiful.

Did you eat well today?

I haven't had time to give you the food I stole today.

I really want to see you one last time.

……

At the same time, in the sky, two bird dragons were flying side by side, and one of them seemed to notice the situation on the ground.

"Cuihua, have you seen what's going on down there? It looks like another dragon is being hunted by humans."

"is it?"

The bird-dragon with seven-colored wings circled around, its gaze fixed on the ground for just a moment before it withdrew its gaze coldly.

"It looks like a dog to me."

Chapter 17: Decision Method - Fighting

In his first hunt, Xing Jian successfully killed a mutated Fire Blade Dragon of hunting level LV25.

Looking at the entire Hunter Guild, this is considered an extremely explosive debut performance.

The only regret is that Erica's clothes were made dirty.

However, after being burned by such a severe flame, it was only dirty in the end. It can be seen that Erica's clothes are definitely not cheap.

Jiu Yue tentatively touched the coat stained with dragon blood. "Is it some kind of top-level armor? Are you okay?"

"It's absolutely fine."
