Dewen paused for a long time. Seeing that no one asked any more questions, Dewen continued to describe the battle arrangements.
"On that day, the Comet Dragon carried two giant airships, and its flying speed would be reduced to the same as the giant airship with its jets turned on. At this time, the airship array would be assembled to launch a concentrated attack on the gun wing. The main firepower would come from the long-range hunter team members.
Ice bomb."
"The wings of Sky Comet Dragon's spear have weak ice attributes?"
Zuda asked.
"Yes, the ice attribute has strong destructive power on the wing parts of the gun."
Li Fan was a little surprised when he heard Dewen's answer.
When the Searing Carapace was submitted to the Longli Institute, Li Fan was present when Sick was doing the test, and it was clear that the effects of bullets with all attributes were average.
Is it because only ice properties form hard residues on the surface of the carapace?
Li Fan thought that ice on the wings of the aircraft would affect the aerodynamic shape of the aircraft, causing changes in airflow, resulting in insufficient lift, making it impossible to climb, and even causing a crash in severe cases.
No, although Huihui's flying posture is very fixed, it does not mean that it cannot be movable and adjusted. At the same time, the surface of the carapace has a high temperature barrier, coupled with the spray of dragon flames, the ice attribute will not last long even if a large amount of ice condenses on the surface.
Moreover, Dewen's description is very straightforward, but it is very destructive.
With doubts, Li Fan opened the document with the silver-winged evil star written on it.
The data on the Sky Comet Dragon's carapace attribute absorption is quite detailed, but based on Li Fan's understanding, many of the key data are false.
"What is the effective shooting range?"
Zuda asked.
"200 meters."
Dewen answered.
200 meters? Wasn’t the test at a distance of 100 meters? Even level 3 penetrating bullets couldn’t penetrate it?
The more Li Fan listened, the more confused he became.
"Looking at 200 meters, it is necessary to deploy a large number of long-range hunter teams. It requires a lot of high-level hunters, right?"
Zuda asked.
"Yes, what I need is at least 120 five-star hunters who use heavy crossbows as their main weapons."
After Dewen finished speaking, the whole audience fell into silence again.
"The Hunter Guild can help recruit up to 60 people, but the rest can't be helped."
Zuda informed.
"We have anticipated this and are preparing to open recruitment for all villages and towns."
Dewen responded.
"Before the attack, are you sure you can recruit 60 five-star hunters who use heavy crossbows as their main weapons?"
Zuda expressed concerns.
"As long as you know enough about hunters as a group, you won't have such doubts."
Dewen said with firm eyes.
"Okay, please continue to introduce the deployment."
Zuda did not explore further.
"If the gun wing is damaged, Sky Comet Dragon's ability to fly at high altitude will be severely restricted, and it will most likely be forced to land. The battlefield will turn from the air to the ground. The battle plan will enter the second stage, but this ground is on its habitat, the Babel Tower.
In terms of height, most hunters are still out of reach, and there is currently only one modified small airship that can go to Ryūliyuan. In order to prevent the Sky Comet Dragon's pursuit from being interrupted, a small number of the best hunters will be sent to fight at the top of the Babel Tower."
Dewen talked about the second phase of the plan.
"There are some top hunters, including Gu Xing and Pazhi who participated in this joint hunting. However, according to the survey data, the circular area at the top of the Babel Tower has no obstruction and is completely unsuitable for hunters to conduct ground operations."
Zuda questioned.
"To explain this in detail, it is related to the ecology of Tianxilong. Sike, the deputy head of the institute, can give an explanation."
After Dewen finished speaking, Sikchai stood up on his chair.
"This is a thorax model created by our research team through ecological observations of Celestial Cometosaurus."
With Todd's help, a metal square with an air intake grille was moved to the table.
Sigg straightened the bachelor's hat on his head, picked up a wooden pointer and began to explain.
"On the outside of the chest of Sky Comet Dragon, there is a physiological structure similar to an air intake grille. This is extremely unusual among monsters. Through continuous observation by the research team, it has been confirmed that the purpose of this structure is to suck the surrounding air into the chest cavity, compress it, and inject dragon attribute energy.
Finally, a gaseous energy called dragon energy is formed."
After Sigg finished speaking, he pressed down the lever behind the metal block.
Huh~huh~
The V-shaped air intake grille on the metal square opens and begins to suck in air rhythmically.
"This model is relatively crude, and it cannot simulate the generation process of dragon energy."
Sick said with some regret.
"What about the core organ that generates dragon energy internally?"
Zuda is the person in charge of the Ancient Dragon Observatory, and is also very interested in the latest ecological discoveries of ancient dragons.
"Judging from the streamlined body shape of Tian Hui Dragon, the organ that generates dragon energy is not that big. It is most likely an energy core similar to the ancient dragon jade, plus the red light flash that appears on the air intake grille when inhaling.
, the research team named it Red Dragon Qi Jade.”
Sick said, simply climbed up on the table and continued to explain.
"Tian Hui Long will periodically absorb a large amount of air, compress and store it in the chest, and use it to generate dragon energy. After fighting with the airship array, Tian Hui Long, whose gun wing was damaged, felt that his life was threatened. He landed the first piece
The thing is, the two substances that can be combined into dragon energy must be fully charged to the limit."
Dang! Dang!
The surface of the silver metal cube suddenly began to bulge outward irregularly.
"When the air is compressed and accumulated to a certain extent, put something in it."
Sick took out a small cloth bag and shook a small amount of orange powder at the metal cube.
"If you ignite it again, it will trigger a huge explosion!"
Sigg said excitedly, but unfortunately, the metal cube model beside him did not cause an explosion, but shriveled up with a popping sound of deflation.
Li Fan also didn't expect that Longli Institute could simply rely on ecological observations and investigate to deduce the possibility of Tianxiosaurus having an explosive chamber.
"Understood, the battle is turning from the air to the ground. The Sky Comet Dragon will inevitably go to the top of the Babel Tower where it lives. If the hunting battle is interrupted due to height issues, then the Sky Comet Dragon, which has a sense of crisis, will have enough time to fully accumulate its dragon energy.
, the small combat area at the top of the tower, it is meaningless to send more hunters, not to mention that the carrying capacity that can reach that height is also very limited. When absorbing compressed air, it is an excellent attack opportunity. What substances are you planning to use? In Tianhui
Caused an explosion in the dragon’s chest?”
Zuda quickly understood the intention of Longliyuan's arrangement.
"It's best to use Yanwang Dragon's dust, mixed with a sticky substance with strong adhesion. Unfortunately, there is no reserve in Longli Academy."
Sick said helplessly.
"The Dust Guild of Yanwanglong can provide it, and I will notify the headquarters to expeditiously deploy it. The quantity is very limited, and the observatory itself is reluctant to invest in research. I hope that the research team can take it seriously during the blending test."
Zuda informed.
"Thank you so much, Director Zuda, the research team will definitely take it seriously, nya!"
Thicke bowed in thanks.
Li Fan felt that as the research on combat deployment deepened, the atmosphere gradually relaxed.
"Dewen, if the deployed combat plan is executed smoothly, what should we do next?"
Zuda asked.
"Blow up the Babel Tower in the habitat, so that the Sky Comet Dragon's gun wings are damaged, and there is not enough dragon energy in the body to maintain long-distance flight. The only choice is to land in the Relic Ridge. I want to leave the joint deployment of ground operations to the guild.
, after all, in terms of experience accumulation, you are richer than Longliyuan."
Dewen stood up and informed.
"It's really not your style to leave the battle to end the Sky Comet Dragon to the Guild. Well, on behalf of the Guild, I approve this combat plan."
After Zuda finished speaking, a researcher began to distribute documents and contracts.
Representatives from each village took out their own seals of different shapes to authenticate the contract.
After reaching an agreement on the general direction, everyone started discussing issues such as material allocation and personnel deployment.
During this period, everyone was open and honest, without any reservations.
Li Fan found that there seemed to be a tacit understanding in the world of monster hunting, that is, when a disaster strikes, even if everyone is in different forces, they will try their best to contribute all their strength to jointly deal with the crisis.
But the more so, the more strange Longliyuan’s behavior of giving false test data becomes.
"How do you plan to recruit the top hunter members who will participate in the battle on the top of the tower?"
Gu Xing asked a question.
Vegasa replied: "The initial method is to recommend the village or the guild."
"Aren't there any members of the Dragon Li Yuan involved? After all, the explosive device was developed by you."
"I'll be there, Meow, as technical support for the explosive device."
Thicke raised the cat's paw.
"I have no ill intentions towards the research team, but I think there should be at least one agile Ryūryūin hunter at the top of the Babel Tower to be responsible for making the explosive device effective."
Gu Xing informed.
"What Gu Xing said makes sense. If only he and Pazhi can participate in the battle at the top of the Babel Tower, the pressure will be too much."
Zuda also agreed with this statement.
"Longliyuan is an academic institution. The former chief hunter has disappeared after retiring. Where can I find you a top-notch hunter?"
Vegasa said displeasedly.
"Is it possible to expand the scope of recruitment? Set the standard as a senior hunter from Ryūliyuan."
Zuda gives advice.
"All right"
Vegasa sighed helplessly.
A high-level hunter would basically die if he went there, but it was really unreasonable to have two seven-star hunters take care of both fighting and using the detonating device correctly at the right time.
After various details were gradually finalized, the joint operations deployment meeting ended, and intense preparations began immediately.
The number of people passing through the Longliyuan headquarters quickly increased.
Seeing that it was already overcrowded, the team simply continued to live on the Flame.
Late at night, Eudora put his hands on the bulwarks, looked at the brightly lit headquarters below, and sighed: "Li Fan, I kind of want to participate in the battle on the top of the tower."
"There's no need to take risks. Maybe we'll recruit top hunters soon."
Li Fan advised.
"Aren't you also making preparations? You changed your mind so quickly?"
"My previous preparations were mainly based on the belief that Huihui could be captured, and that the team could help. Now it seems that they can complete the hunt for Huihui even if they don't participate. If you really want to participate, the ground of Yiqun Ridge
Combat is not bad either.”
Li Fan said slightly disappointed.
"Okay, so what are you going to do next?"
"Brother Lei is almost done recuperating. It's time to find a place where no one is around to carry out the mutation. But this time the process is more complicated."
"Have you obtained the ancient dragon bone?"
Eudora asked in surprise.
"Yes, to build a trap to lure Huihui into taking the bait, a huge amount of Hexing Stone is needed. I thought the market was better, so I exchanged a piece of the mineral vein for guild points, and then exchanged the points for 184 level 3 ancient dragon bone fragments.
It’s the most economical route.”
Li Fan also learned about it through in-depth understanding. Ancient dragon bones can be divided into complete ones and fragments.
The complete ones can be used in processing equipment, and the application methods of the fragments are generally studied.
In addition, according to the surface weathering conditions, it is divided into five levels.
The identification standards were a bit beyond Li Fan’s expectations.
Ancient dragon bones do not have greater value the older they are, but the newer they are, the more valuable they are.
If the appraisal grade is too poor, it will be dropped directly and classified as an ancient dragon bone.
"Then let's set off as early as possible. I heard that the headquarters airport will be more crowded in the next two days. Let's leave the Flame to leave space. It can be considered a contribution."
After Eudora finished speaking, she remembered a detail in the meeting and asked worriedly: "Can we really recruit 60 five-star hunters with heavy crossbows as their main weapons in such a short time? After all, Kara Village is also the branch president.
Harun is a five-star, and his main weapon is a spear."
Li Fan looked up at the night sky with twinkling stars and responded: "It's definitely possible here."
Three days later, in the early morning, a Longliyuan small airship hovered over Lan Tai Village.
After the recruitment contract fell like snow flakes, the airship started speeding again and rushed to the next small village in the surrounding area.
The two male villagers picked up the contract on the ground, looked at it for a moment, and couldn't help but laugh at each other.
"We don't even have a guild representative in Lantai Village, so where can we find a five-star hunter?"
"If you ask me, this airship can find Lantai Village, which is pretty powerful."
While everyone was talking, a middle-aged man carrying a fish basket appeared on the dirt road in the village.
After picking up a contract and looking at it for a moment, the man's expression changed slightly, he removed the fish basket from his back and carried it back home.
After the wife saw the man return home, she kept holding the contract in a daze and sighed silently.
After thinking for a long time, the man got up and came to the house, dragging a large red box out from under the bed.
After breaking the lock with bare hands, the lid of the box was opened, revealing a heavy ballista that had been split into parts.
On the split gun butt, the five-star hunter badge embedded in it shines brightly.
The man picked up the parts and began to assemble them skillfully, as if he had done this action thousands of times and had it engraved in his mind.
Outside the door, the sun shines in, and my wife's figure is reflected on the box.
"you want to go?"
"Um."
"Why?"
"Because I have also been protected by others."
At the same time, in an unexplored forest, Li Fan was holding a hunter's knife, pointing it at Brother Lei's back, cutting off the purple carrion bit by bit.
"Brother Lei! I'm wearing earplugs! If you feel pain, just yell out! It's okay!"
Li Fan shouted.
Lei Ge, who was lying on his side, swung his tail and slapped the ground, seeming to express that this was just a small scene, so just go ahead and do it.
The pain tolerance of monsters is much better than that of humans, so Li Fan was rude and increased his intensity.
The reason why there is a large area of purple rotten flesh on Brother Lei's back is not that he did not take good care of his serious injuries before, but that the body tissue under the electric storage shell has been soaked by the venom of the little fool.
What Li Fan wants to achieve is to intervene in the non-necrotic battery shell and cause it to become artificially necrotic.
In this way, the thunder attribute energy that pops up from time to time will be completely cut off.
Originally, he had customized measures to prevent the spread of venom, but after Lei Ge understood the reason, he said that would be too time-consuming and he could just soak it.
Half an hour later, as the last piece of purple rotten flesh was removed, Li Fan wiped the sweat from his forehead and washed the hunter's knife.
"Brother Lei, are you the worst I've ever seen? You've passed out and you can't pour the healing medicine on the wound, right? I've experienced that feeling. Forget it, let's start the next step."
Li Fan muttered and brought a bucket of foaming synovial fluid.
"Eudora Dilu, start brushing, and remember to stay away from the wound."
After Li Fan finished speaking, he took the bench to the Thunder Wolf Dragon's paws, spread the two toes together, and inserted the small brush into them.
Cha! Cha!
A burst of intense friction sounded.
The team scrubbed for more than an hour before the characteristic [Insect Pheromone Attachment] finally disappeared.
Li Fan called for the Flame to lower its altitude, and the first activation training began.
Because he consumed the ancient dragon bone fragments and was in good condition, Lei Ge was able to stimulate significantly more dragon-attribute energy, and it was also purer.
The attracted swarm of dragon-eating insects didn't know it was a black factory because the warning pheromones had been washed away, so they rushed forward in a swarm.
Ouch! Ouch! Ouch!
Boom! A powerful wave of air exploded from Brother Lei, and the super flash state was achieved again.
At this time, there was no swarm of insects activated to become the Super Flash Dragon Worm, and most of them began to retreat.
It's gone after being knocked down by electricity, but this one-way activation has no benefit at all.
Then the dragon-eating insect's black factory logo, [Insect Pheromone Attachment] appeared again.
Li Fan also had a headache when he looked at the handheld device, but he finally grasped some key points through observation and began to give guidance.
"Brother Lei, the energy that can activate the dragon-eating insect is the kind of extremely fine energy flow. The energy flow you release is too thick."
Brother Lei blinked and swung his front paws horizontally. The red and black lightning aroused at the tips of the claws crackled in the air.
"Still rough."
Lei Ge thought for a moment and directed the dragon attribute energy to the electrified hair on his back.
Snap! Snap!
As the back swings, energy flows as delicate as hair are excited at the ends of the charged hairs.
"It seems a little too thin, that's all."
Another 40 minutes of scrubbing.
In the second activation test, with the delicate energy flow emitted by the charged hairs, about one-third of the dragon-eating insects in the insect swarm were finally activated and stimulated into super flash dragon-eating insects.
For the first time, Lei Ge was extremely happy to be surrounded by a swarm of dragon-eating insects.
The characteristic [Insect Pheromone Attachment] appears again, but this time it has both affinity and warning.
"This is good. There are both small black fans and true love fans. This kind of information residue is the most difficult to identify."
Li Fan feels that Brother Lei's biggest advantage is that there is no Prison Wolf Dragon to compete with him for the possession of the Dragon Eating Insect.
In this way, as long as there is a small amount of positive pheromones attached, it is easy to attract dragon-eating insects.
But the biggest problem at the moment is that the entire super flash process, and even the ecology of the dragon-eating insects, are all artificially created.
Li Fan felt that this would not work, so he customized two improvement plans.
One is to let Lei Ge conduct field training, and let him lead limited dragon-eating insect activities without the support of the Flame, so as to gradually adapt to the control and use of dragon-eating insects.
The second is research on the improvement and cultivation of dragon-killing fruit.
On the way here, Li Fan read several plants-related books.
As mentioned above, the reason why dragon-killing fruit grows in areas where ancient dragons are active is inseparable from the dragon-attribute energy.
If the dragon-attributed energy emanating from the Hexing Stone can be used to cultivate it in large quantities, first of all, the research report can be exchanged for a lot of good things in the guild.
Lei Ge's natural adaptive mutation environment is now available.
After making the deployment, Li Fan returned to the headquarters.
You can buy dragon-killing fruit, but the seeds and breeding information can only be found at the headquarters research institute.
At this time, all the giant combat airships in the airport have completed the installation of jets.
Why don't you participate in the ground battle and see how Hui Hui burps?
forget it.
Li Fan on the Yanhuo sighed and walked onto the sky bridge.
After borrowing several books on plant cultivation from the institute, Li Fan took a chartered researcher badge and entered the laboratory.
Hearing that dragon-killing fruit was to be bred, the female researcher who managed the material warehouse was a little curious, but she went to help get it.
While waiting, I saw Sigg climbing on the largest experimental table and sighing, and Li Fan walked over.
"It's you! Meow, the academic madman who spends 20 hours a day in the top-secret archives!"
The painful experience of accompanying him to school left a deep impression on Sick.
"No way, the longest day is only 19 hours."
"Uh, I can't remember, meow. I just think that time was very long."
Sick said, his sleepy eyes about to close.
"You have put out so many test materials. Is there a bottleneck in the research on detonating devices?"
Li Fan looked at the table and said.
"Yes, Meow. I have tried many combinations, but the results are not satisfactory."
"So it's so difficult?"
With so many materials put together, Li Fan felt dazzled just looking at them, let alone experimenting.
"What material is this silver crystal made of?"
Li Fan felt that he saw a very familiar material.
"This is awesome, meow. The guild brought it back from the New World. It hasn't been named yet, and it was entrusted to the Dragon Li Academy for research."
Li Fan was stunned for a moment, then suddenly grabbed the silver-white crystal with iridescent color inside, and exclaimed: "Hui Hui is saved!"
