Monster Hunt: Notes from a Hunter

Even the Flame Queen Dragon, known for its arrogance and refusal to submit to anyone, couldn't help but lower its body and nervously retreat several steps at this moment.

It was the first time it had ever seen such a gigantic creature.

The Flame King Dragon, always wary of the "forbidden aura" that had appeared earlier, reacted even more impulsively.

Roaring, it stood upright, scattering a large amount of scale powder as its wings flailed wildly, preparing to unleash a powerful scale powder explosion without regard for the consequences.

“Roar!”

The Flame Queen Dragon quickly slammed into it sideways, forcibly interrupting the Flame King Dragon's build-up.

It was calmer than the latter, and in the fleeting glimpse of fire just now, it saw more clearly.

That ridiculously large head was somewhat abnormal; rather than resembling a living creature, it looked more like a skeleton that had been dead for a long time.

Otherwise, after taking that flame breath, it should have roared a couple of times.

Moreover, releasing a large-scale scale powder explosion in such a narrow, enclosed cave environment would likely cause the entire cave to collapse.

They were deep underground now, and if a cave-in occurred, neither of them would fare well.

The Flame King Dragon, having received two more slaps on its large head, finally calmed down. The two Flame Dragons stared intently at the depths of the cave, obscured by the miasma, at the location of that giant skull.

“Roar woof—”

Just then, a swift shadow flashed past behind the Flame King Dragon, and a crescent-shaped blade opened a long, narrow wound on its hind leg.

The wound wasn't too deep, but thick blood droplets could still be seen slowly seeping out.

The Flame King Dragon hurriedly turned around and swung its claws, but it swung at empty air. The dense miasma around it made it impossible to see what had attacked it.

Immediately afterward, the Flame Queen Dragon also sensed something approaching behind it.

Having witnessed the Flame King Dragon's misfortune, it decisively turned around and spewed a fan-shaped flame, igniting the attacker, which turned into a twisted, charred corpse in a matter of seconds.

The gazes of the Flame King Dragon and Flame Queen Dragon fell on the charred corpse. It was just a Paralysis Knell, a creature of such low level that they wouldn't even bother to glance at it normally.

The Flame Queen Dragon spat a spark at the Flame King Dragon, seemingly mocking, “The thing that injured you was this kind of thing?”

The Flame King Dragon was also somewhat confused. How could this small monster break through its skin scales and make it bleed?

This was unreasonable.

Just as it was wondering, the sound of something approaching came from the fog.

Feeling like it was being played, the Flame King Dragon became enraged. It braced its forelimbs on the ground, jumped and turned around, and heat surged within its giant mouth. It looked like it was about to unleash a large-scale breath attack, sweeping across and burning the guy who repeatedly ambushed it to ashes.

But just as the breath was about to be released, another figure descended from the sky.

“Break it, motherfucker!”

A giant axe wrapped in high-energy electric arcs slammed down on its head, and the ice-attribute energy accumulated in the phial burst out, following the Flame King Dragon's spine all the way back, exploding into countless clouds of frost.

If the previous two sneak attacks were like lightly slicing a thigh with a knife, then this strike was like being swung on the head with a sledgehammer.

The fierce force carried by the axe blade directly slammed the Flame King Dragon's head into the ground, and even the giant mouth that was about to spew breath was smashed shut.

If controlling flames wasn't already a completely instinctive thing for the Flame King Dragon, like breathing, the muffled explosion of the breath alone would have blown apart its mouth.

“Roar—!” The Flame Queen Dragon was shocked and furious.

To be honest, although its hind legs were cut twice, neither the Flame Queen Dragon nor the Flame King Dragon themselves took these "small monsters" from the dark too seriously.

They were just some annoying vermin.

The vast majority of their attention, from beginning to end, remained on the depths of the cave, in the direction where that giant head had appeared.

The lord of the miasma that ruled this island, and the forbidden power that might be lurking somewhere in the dark, were the real targets they needed to be wary of.

However, the hunter's attack broke their train of thought.

That strike just now left a hideous wound on the Flame King Dragon's forehead, deep enough to see bone. If there were a few more attacks like that, even they, as Elder Dragons, wouldn't be able to withstand it.

What shocked the Flame Queen Dragon even more was that the tiny creature, not even as long as its horns, was emitting that aura that made them deeply fearful—the aura of the forbidden power.

Of course, as a famous "Queen," a crazy woman who dared to rush directly in front of the Crimson Dragon to start a fight, the Flame Queen Dragon wasn't so easily frightened.

After a brief moment of astonishment, it immediately launched a fierce attack on the hunter in front of its partner.

Seeing this, Feng Ying, who was preparing to take advantage of the Flame King Dragon's dizzy head and its failure to recover, immediately disassembled the sword and shield, preparing to deal with the Flame Queen Dragon's attack.

But just then, a Rotten Claw Dragon, rotten and with exposed bones, suddenly jumped out of the miasma, approaching from the side, leaping onto the Flame Queen Dragon's back and constantly tearing and biting.

Even though flames ignited on its body, it showed no sign of retreating, and the Flame Queen Dragon's supporting attack was hindered.

Feng Ying chuckled. She knew that this was cover from her side.

Reorganizing her posture, she inserted the sword into the shield, completing the weapon's form transformation, and then smashed another elemental release slash on the Flame King Dragon's head, smashing the Flame King Dragon, who was shaking its head and struggling to get up, back to the ground.

The hunter's act of attacking its partner in front of it completely enraged the Flame Queen Dragon.

It waved its wing claws, pushing away the living corpse Rotten Claw Dragon clinging to its side, and then suddenly flicked its body, like swinging a sandbag, slamming the terrifying-looking Rotten Claw Dragon in front of it.

Not giving the opponent a chance to climb back up, it pressed down on the living corpse Rotten Claw Dragon's body with its strong forelimbs, its fangs and giant mouth wide open, biting the Rotten Claw Dragon's relatively slender waist.

It violently shook its head and tore, while simultaneously exerting force with both claws, tearing the living corpse Rotten Claw Dragon's body in half at the waist.

“Roar!”

Raising its neck and erupting in a狂吼, the Flame Queen Dragon threw aside the remains of the living corpse Rotten Claw Dragon, and was about to continue forward, but its pace stopped again.

The living corpse Rotten Claw Dragon, which had already been torn in two, was still not completely dead.

The pupils, covered with a nictitating membrane and completely turned pale, showed no signs of life, but the bloody mouth full of fishhook-like fangs was still tightly biting the Flame Queen Dragon's ankle.

Even though its internal organs were dragged out from the broken waist and flowed all over the ground, it still refused to let go.

The Flame Queen Dragon wouldn't be moved by the fearless death of the living corpse Rotten Claw Dragon, and boundless anger turned into scorching flames bursting from its teeth.

It raised its sharp claws and smashed the head of the living corpse Rotten Claw Dragon, and bright, dazzling blue dragon flames turned into a solid pillar of fire, enveloping the broken corpse.

“Whoosh—”

Seconds later, the breath stopped, and the Flame Queen Dragon kicked away the completely carbonized charred corpse, and while raising its head and accumulating breath again, it continued to step forward.

Just as the breath was completed and about to erupt, a column of high-concentration miasma condensed from far away and shot at the Flame Queen Dragon, pushing it back a good distance.

The Miasma Corpse Armor Dragon stretched its bone claw-like wings and slowly walked out from the depths of the miasma, blocking its path.
