Nathan and the two did not expect at first that they would track them from the sewers all the way to the extinct volcano park.
As they continued deeper into the cave, both of them felt an obvious burning smell, accompanied by a burnt smell with a faint smell of sulfur.
Nathan and Hans looked at each other tacitly, both understanding what the other's eyes meant.
That's where we are, and the target may be just ahead.
So Nathan opened the weapon bag on his back and began to apply medicated oil on several cold weapons. Hans also took out weapons other than pistols, a stun baton and a shotgun. The latter was from Xia Guo's side.
Commonly known as a troll!
The power of a pistol generally has no effect on physical and spiritual monsters, but trolls are different. They may not be able to really kill those non-human monsters, but they can also have a stopping effect. They are definitely a weapon to save the situation at critical moments.
.
The same is true for the current of the high-voltage stun baton. It may not be able to electrocute those monsters with strong physiques, but it can also paralyze them for a period of time. This thing is also the only effective attack method for Hans, the hunter's assistant, against spiritual beings.
Even a scary ghost has to kneel down in the face of high voltage current.
Coupled with the body armor, helmets, gas masks, etc. that the two of them wore, it can be said that they were armed from head to toe.
That's the good thing about being a police officer. You can apply for these weapons and equipment, and it's completely legal. After all, criminals in the United States are famous for their powerful firepower. If the police go out on a mission, just relying on a small pistol has no deterrent effect at all.
As a private person, although you can buy better and more advanced ones if you have money, it is more troublesome. Some weapons and equipment need to be applied for to be owned by the public, and some are even contraband, and they have to be hidden secretly to prevent them from being used.
Get caught and punished.
After the two of them were armed, they continued to move deeper into the cave. As they went deeper, they could already hear sounds like bellows. It sounded like the breathing of some creature, but this sound was definitely not the sound.
What humans can emit is.
Because the wheezing sound was almost as loud as the sound of large machines operating in a factory.
As the two of them turned a corner in a cave, a rush of hot air hit their faces.
A red fire also began to appear in the field of view ahead. Although it was not very bright, the dim fire allowed humans to see clearly the general environment inside the cave.
What I saw here was a spacious cave underground, which was seven or eight meters high. There were many dark red cracks on the ground. The red light shone like breathing inside, which was obviously the light brought by the high-temperature lava.
In the deepest part of the cave is a small magma lake, or pond. In the magma pond several meters in diameter, there is a huge monster bathing in lava lying there. The huge gasping sound just now was
The monster's breathing or grunting.
This monster looks like a humanoid, more than two meters tall, but its body is as thick as a hill. Its entire body has a short and fat appearance. Lying in the magma pond, it looks like a person taking a bath in a bathtub.
There are irregular pieces of hard rock growing on the surface of this monster. There are cracks on the surface, and dark red light can be seen flashing with breathing in the cracks. It is obviously high-temperature.
Although the monster has an inhuman appearance, the original outline of the monster can be vaguely seen in this appearance.
Nathan whispered into the ear of his partner Hans:
"This may be a fire dwarf. I have seen records about this blood race in the notes of my ancestors."
Hans stared at Nathan in disbelief and asked:
"You call this a dwarf?"
"It shouldn't be wrong. Fire dwarves may not look very short, but they are said to have the blood of the fire giants in Nordic mythology. Other types of dwarves also have similar legends. It is said that in ancient times, there were kings among the dwarves who could return to their ancestors to obtain
He has the size of a giant, but I didn’t expect this guy to become like this after losing control! I guess this guy’s ancestor is a hybrid of a lava giant and a fire giant, right?”
Nathan also said very uncertainly.
Hans looked at the shotgun in his hand, then looked at the huge size of the monster, and couldn't help but swallow. Just now he felt that the gun was very safe in his hand, but now he felt that this thing was too dangerous for the monster.
It's probably not much different from burning a fire stick.
"what to do?"
Hans asked his partner in a low voice.
Nathan also frowned.
"The weakness of the fire dwarf is that it is afraid of water and cold, but there are no fire pipes here, and I don't know magic. I can only try to see if the medicinal oil will hurt it. If it doesn't work, I will lead this guy outside. I remember the park
There are fountains and water supply systems..."
As he spoke, Nathan picked up the hand crossbow, aimed at the monster in the lava, and pulled the trigger.
Whoosh! Bang bang!
The two crossbow arrows hit the monster and penetrated the opponent's body surface covered with rocks. They made two booming sounds, as if they had hit a stone, and indeed they hit the stone.
The other two shots were pistol bullets fired by Hans along with the crossbow. The reason why he used a pistol was because the shotgun was a range attack. If the distance exceeded the optimal shooting range, it would not have the accuracy and power of a pistol, and it would be easy to miss.
Although the rock on the surface of this monster is not as hard as granite, it is similar to ordinary sand and shale. When a nine-millimeter pistol bullet hit its body, it could only make two shallow pits and break a lot of sand and gravel.
But compared to the huge size of the monster, it was just a drop in the bucket. Unless a powerful machine gun was used to continuously fire, no amount of bullets would be able to defeat this stone monster.
If there was a rocket launcher or a cannon, it might be more effective, but the key is that neither of them had one!
Awakened by the two attacks, the monster stood up angrily from the magma pit and let out an inhuman roar.
The monster's eyes made of flames burst out with angry sparks, and he soon discovered two small things more than ten meters away, which were the culprits who attacked him.
Although these two attacks did no harm to it at all, and the crater will soon recover as it absorbs the surrounding fire and earth elements, the lava monster that has lost its humanity and reason only has the thinking of a beast.
, when there is a foreign intruder in his nest, the first thing he wants to do is to kill these two little bugs.
Seeing the lava monster coming out of the magma pit, although it was still covered in high-temperature flames and smoke, there was already an environment for him to fight, so Monster Hunter Nathan waved his silver sword with a cold light and headed towards
The monster charged away.
The assistant Hans behind him had no choice but to watch the battle behind with a spray gun in his hand, and had no way to join the battle.
"Roar……"
The lava monster was very angry at the little thing that dared to attack it. It opened its two big hands to grapple and attack Nathan's attacking figure.
Facing the arms of the lava monster that looked like a huge red-hot vise, the monster hunter decisively ducked to one side while wielding his ancestral silver-plated steel sword with both hands.
With a clang, the sharp and heavy two-handed sword cut into three inches of the lava monster's skin. However, because the monster's body surface was just a pile of high-temperature rocks, this move did not hurt the monster at all.
"Damn it!"
The silver sword, which knows that it is invincible in the face of flesh and blood monsters, will not be able to exert its due fighting power against such a semi-elemental monster, and may even break the blade. As for melee combat, it is even more impossible. It is just a lava monster.
The high temperature on his body will cook him.
After failing to hit the target, Nathan hurriedly stepped back, kicked up with powerful legs, and jumped back six to seven meters in a few turns, narrowly avoiding the monster's next attack.
With a roar, the monster's huge hand, like a miniature forklift, slapped on the floor of the cave, causing earth and rocks to fly and spread out with high-temperature smoke and dust.
Hans at the back was sweating on his forehead and couldn't help but swallow again. He felt that if he was photographed by this shot, he probably wouldn't need to process it and it would be turned into a grilled meat patty.
