0038 You're marrying me today.
0038 You're marrying me today.
The little fool, who was being watched by the two, seemed to have figured something out and slowly stepped closer.
"The fact that you didn't take the opportunity to escape already shows your attitude, but if you get involved in this state, you might lose your life if you're unlucky."
As Li Ai spoke, she walked towards the other person.
I raised my hand to stroke its dark green, hooked nose, but the little idiot tilted its head slightly upwards and extended the long thorns on its jaw.
Li Ai changed the target of her hand and gently stroked the surface of the thorns.
The little fool squinted his eyes slightly, looking quite pleased.
"Do you like touching here...?"
It was a little strange to touch the thorns on his chin as a sign of affection, but since the little fool liked it, Li Ai naturally didn't hesitate.
The phone vibrated to alert me that my affection level had increased to three hearts, and I had successfully entered the dating phase.
"Since you're willing to participate, then it's time to teach Sister Broken Tail a lesson."
After Li Ai finished speaking, she looked at the ivy leaves hanging in the forest and took out the hunter's knife from her waist.
Forested hills and mountains, the summit of the highest peak.
Two fire dragons, one cherry pink and the other azure blue, were flying and circling at low altitude, launching an attack on Layton, who was wearing armored dragon armor and holding a heavy shield.
The two dragons cooperated extremely well. After one swooped down and showed its claws, the other would fly behind it and launch a surprise attack.
Even as a six-star hunter, Layton could only keep turning around and hastily raise his shield to defend.
Sene wanted to help and share the burden, but the two fire dragons, having fought for some time, knew how terrifying this human was and refused to approach his location.
The Azure Rathalos's sudden return has plunged the team into a fierce battle.
However, after firing the last two water cannons, Asani, who was holding the water cannon to the side, noticed that the Azure Rathalos was flying and swaying, showing signs of dying.
But when her cat companion handed her the last armor-piercing grenade, she hesitated about whether to load it now.
While armor-piercing grenades inflict minimal damage, a headshot can trigger a secondary, violent explosion that can briefly stun a monster.
Using it for offense now might have a chance to kill Azure Rathalos, but if that fails, when retreating, we'll only be able to fire the least powerful normal bullets.
Unable to guarantee the correctness of his decision, Yassani could only shout, "There's only one armor-piercing grenade left!"
The advantage of a team having sufficient tacit understanding is that in an emergency, you only need one sentence for the other party to understand your thoughts.
Layton gritted his teeth, his expression somewhat unwilling.
Even with a heavy shield as thick as a rock slab in place, and unable to continuously observe the Rathalos's condition like Asani, one can still infer its condition from the decrease in the power of its claws and from past experience.
It was clear that Azure Rathalos was on the verge of death. If they gave up now, all the previous desperate battles and the heavy injuries suffered by Siphus would be meaningless.
But if they persist, the hero team might face the risk of being wiped out.
"Sene, you choose! I'll cover you!"
Layton called out his choice, clearly indicating that he would remain steadfast regardless of whether he retreated or continued hunting.
The wild grass at Senegal's feet had been burned to black ash. Looking at the two subspecies of fire dragons flying in mid-air, this feeling of being unable to use his strength was the last thing he wanted to experience.
The main way for Kokot Village to fight monsters is to train hunters.
With resources being allocated to this area, the city's defenses consisted of only a few wooden fence gates, making them almost non-existent.
If the breeding season gets out of control, the fire dragons will migrate to the surrounding areas and easily break through defenses to threaten the village.
However, if they continue down this path, and the hero team suffers further casualties, the outcome will also be unacceptable.
Faced with this difficult choice, even the usually steadfast Seigne began to hesitate.
"withdraw..."
Just as he made up his mind and was about to issue the retreat order, a horn suddenly sounded.
"Why are the other squads here?!"
Senegal looked in surprise toward the sound.
On the edge of a distant cliff, Langde held a female Rathalos helmet in one hand and a horn flute in the other, tilting his head back and playing it to the sky.
Humans, who have struggled against nature for generations, would blow a horn to boost morale before each expedition to fight monsters.
Therefore, the sound of the horn in the wild is seen as a provocation by many monsters, easily attracting their attention and angering them.
The flying azure fire dragon turned around to look.
Upon discovering that it was the weakest human who had arrived, it roared and flew over.
"Land! Evacuate immediately!"
Sene shouted and ran closer.
Unmoved, Lande lit a cigarette and took a deep drag.
Next, I put the female Rathalos helmet on my head and calmly adjusted and straightened it.
Take down the greatsword named Sieglinde, which was crafted from materials from a female Rathalos.
He held the blade, which resembled a decapitation sword, upright, slightly turned to the side, facing the Azure Rathalos attacking from the sky.
Lang swung the blade behind him, took a deep breath, raised his chest and contracted his abdomen, concentrating all his power in his arms.
With the pulsation of the muscles, the Rathian gauntlets that were originally close to the arm were gradually stretched until they bulged.
"Hmm~"
A low murmur came from inside the helmet.
A faint light appeared on the massive sword, which seemed to emanate a powerful aura.
Senegal realized that Land was not throwing his life away; he seemed genuinely confident in stopping the Azure Fire Dragon.
So he changed from running in a straight line to running around to the side, and his actions changed from rescuing and blocking to coordinating with his teammates to counterattack.
The Azure Fire Dragon flapped its wings violently, and its dive accelerated abruptly.
The tail wasn't straightened, which was a preparation for a quick tail sweep after touching the ground.
"Drink!"
The greatsword swung forward, the bandage wrapped around the tip snapped, and blood gushed out.
The Azure Rathalos's claws pierced through Langd's breastplate first, but all the pain and trauma did not hinder the swing of the sword.
Whoosh!
The blade slammed into the Azure Rathalos's chest, causing its carapace to crack in multiple places and burst open instantly under the pressure of the blade's entry.
With thick dragon blood splattered all over him, Londo took a half-step back on one leg.
The Azure Fire Dragon, severely wounded in the chest, lost its balance and fell to the ground.
Instead of taking the opportunity to launch a horizontal slash, Langde immediately began to pursue.
Instead, he shifted to the side and changed position, aiming at the head of the Azure Fire Dragon that was struggling and turning its head on the ground, and swung the greatsword back behind him again.
Pfft!
At that moment, the black horned dragon's single-handed sword, resembling a mace, struck the head of the Azure Fire Dragon precisely from the side.
Fragments of pale blue carapace splattered outwards along with blood.
Seeing that Lande was gathering his strength and had already prepared, Seneca quickly drew his sword and retreated.
The lacerations inflicted by the Blackhorn Dragon's one-handed sword on the Azure Rathalos were striking and ferocious, appearing to Londo as if Sene had left him with some kind of clear mark.
As the greatsword aimed and slashed down, the Azure Fire Dragon froze, struggling for a moment with its movements slowed, before its head and neck slammed to the ground, plunging it into complete silence.
Senegal pointed to the puncture wound on Londo's breastplate, then turned and charged head-on at the enraged Pink Rathian.
Londo planted his greatsword in the ground and knelt down, supporting himself on the blade.
He gasped for breath, clutching his chest wound, but a smile appeared on his face as he looked at the Azure Fire Dragon's corpse.
"The so-called King of the Azure is nothing more than this."
At the same moment, Li Ai completed the combat deployment in the woods and looked up at the sky.
Battles between high-risk individuals are indeed highly unusual.
The lone wolf had now transformed into a monster girl, riding on the back of the tailless woman. With its sharp claws slashing rapidly, blood and venom splattered continuously from the sky.
However, in the next moment, the tail of the woman with the broken tail swung and hit the rock wall.
The lone wolf's entire body was flung into the rock strata, creating a human-shaped dent.
The tailless woman created distance and accelerated as she charged forward.
Despite the blood trickling from its mouth, the lone wolf showed no fear. It leaped outwards with its paws, transforming itself in the process. The one-eared black wolf bird used its paws to stomp on the head of the tailless woman, using the momentum to soar upwards.
Awoo!
The lone wolf's joyful howl echoed across the forest hills.
Her easy and flexible fighting style gave her the advantage, but when Lone Wolf caught sight of the Rathalos flying in the distance, he could only turn around and dive down to continue fighting and entangled with the Tail-Broken Sister.
"Everything's ready! You silly goose! It's our turn to make our appearance!"
As Li Ai spoke, she climbed onto the little fool's back.
The surface was covered with sharp carapace protrusions and thorns, and Li Ai could only barely sit down by using a small shield bitten by a snake as a cushion.
"I want to help too!"
Seeing that Li Ai was about to leave, Yang Kuku said anxiously.
"You... well, your voice is loud enough, so come on over."
After the two were settled, the little fool tried to take off. He was injured and had never carried anyone before, so it took him several attempts to finally take off from the forest.
By this time, more fire dragons had noticed the fierce battle taking place in the air.
"That's not right. This is the territory of Azure Rathalos and Pink Rathian, so why are there so many other Rathalos around here?"
After the two fire dragon subspecies successfully nested in the forest, the biggest threat they posed was their intimidation and driving away of other fire dragons, which further worsened the situation during the breeding season.
The fire dragons that had been driven away suddenly returned in large numbers. Li Ai felt that the only possibility was that some major change had occurred in the core area.
"Did the hero team's hunt succeed? That's great! That means fewer fire dragons will migrate outwards... But this also puts Lone Wolf in greater danger!"
With a strong wind blowing against her face, Li Ai realized she had reached a sufficient altitude and knew she couldn't delay any longer.
"Yang Kuku, I'll sing a line in a bit, and you sing along, the louder the better."
"Okay!...But can Sister Duanwei really understand the meaning?"
Based on his own experience, Yang Kuku offered his speculation.
After all, before becoming a monster girl, the meaning behind Li Ai's words was quite vague.
She could only barely understand some of it when accompanied by exaggerated physical gestures and engaging scenario demonstrations.
"She probably won't understand, but once that atmosphere is created, she'll definitely be drawn in."
"Okay, come on over!"
Yang Kuku tilted his head back and took a deep breath, preparing himself.
"By the way, what's the song called?"
"I told you to marry me today."
Thud!
The tail-splitting woman's tail lashed out and struck the lone wolf in the head.
A large amount of thick, purple venom splashed and adhered to the broken, ear-shaped keratinous tissue.
The tailless woman noticed that the lone wolf was afraid to fly too high for fear of being discovered by other fire dragons, so she deliberately chose to attack from below, compressing all the hiding space to the minimum.
After being hit hard, the lone wolf finally managed to create some distance between itself and the enemy.
Just as Lone Wolf was about to dive down and descend, a voice she knew very well rang out in the air.
"The warmth of spring and the blooming flowers take away the sadness of winter, the gentle breeze brings a romantic atmosphere, every love song suddenly becomes meaningful, and I suddenly see you at this moment... Wow!"
The eerie singing made Sister Broken Tail stop her attack and turn to look down.
"I'm looking over here! Speak louder!"
Seeing that Sister Duanwei's attention was completely drawn, Li Ai crouched down, hugged the little fool's neck, and affectionately rubbed her face against its carapace.
Upon hearing this, Yang Kuku clapped his hands and then raised his voice: "The fragrance of spring flowers dispels the chill of winter, and the gentle breeze brings unexpected love! The birds' songs draw us closer! I've suddenly fallen in love with you right now!"
Hey~
Hey~
Two ferocious roars, emanating from clenched teeth, came out simultaneously.
"Huh? Why does Lone Wolf look angry too..."
Li Ai was somewhat puzzled.
Even when encountering a fire dragon and seeking a mate in a normal way, the tailless woman cannot tolerate it, let alone a human-dragon romance that defies societal norms.
Li Ai felt it was natural for her to be offended.
This is also key to guiding it towards the ground, but why the lone wolf is angry is not quite clear.
Even though it had just suffered injuries and its flight was restricted, it still seemed to thoroughly enjoy the battle.
"Sister Duanwei is completely captivated, it really works! I've memorized the lyrics, do you want me to sing it again?"
The question made Li Ai realize that although the lone wolf didn't care about his mate, he did care about Yang Kuku.
"Sing! But don't sing to me anymore, sing to Lone Wolf!"
"Huh? Isn't the one we're supposed to guide the one with the broken tail?"
Yang Kuku couldn't understand.
"Singing to a lone wolf can kill two birds with one stone, believe me!"
"good!"
After Yang Kuku finished speaking, he looked up at the sky and gazed in the direction of the lone wolf.
"The warmth of spring and the blooming flowers take away the sadness of winter, the gentle breeze brings a romantic atmosphere, every love song suddenly becomes meaningful, and I suddenly see you at this moment..."
Realizing that the song was sung to him by Yang Kuku, the lone wolf's red eyes widened, and all his anger vanished in an instant.
"Let's stick them together."
Li Ai continued to rub against his face.
The dragon and the bird roared at the same time, then ignored each other's presence and swooped down to the ground.
"They're here! They're here! Run, you silly goose!"
Li Ai quickly patted the shell, and the little fool immediately launched a dive.
After landing, the little idiot quickly ran into the jungle.
Li Ai and Yang Kuku waited in place for a moment. When they saw Duanwei Jie land, Li Ai waved provocatively and then turned and ran away.
"Listen to me, hold my hand, come with me, and let's live a peaceful life..."
"Stop singing 'Sheep Kuku'! You're dead if you get caught!"
"Okay."
Upon hearing this, Yang Kuku immediately quickened his pace.
Boom! Boom!...
The sounds of crashing and breaking trees kept coming from behind.
But as you go deeper, the trees in the forest gradually become larger and the gaps between them become smaller.
The enraged Broken Tail not only faced obstacles in her advance, but the lone wolf also launched a fierce attack during the pursuit, making her injuries even more severe.
At this moment, Li Ai suddenly made a sharp turn, passed through a gap in the trees of moderate width, and ran to an open space.
Not only did it stop running, it also stood still.
Sister Duanwei sensed something was wrong, but when she saw Li Ai tilting her head and resting her hand on her cheek, rubbing her face with a happy expression, she completely lost her mind and rushed over.
Seeing this, Li Ai suddenly pulled on a hanging vine, and the vine net wrapped with a lot of gravel at the top of the tree fell down.
The rocks weren't very big, and they had almost no effect on the tailless woman.
But along with it fell a net trap woven from thick ivy and wrapped around and fixed to the giant trees on both sides.
The bound tail sister kept trying to break free, but she was only entangled tighter and tighter.
Seeing that he couldn't break through, Li Ai switched his one-handed sword, Snake Bite, to a two-handed grip and shouted, "Shield Bug Home Run!"
