Chapter 1293 Distant Song
Gu Long is proud.
Faced with the hunters' obvious provocation, the Ice Curse Dragon should be furious.
However, after suffering a great loss in the Molten Canyon and having its tail still not fully regenerated, the Ice Curse Dragon learned to be cautious.
It flapped its wings and soared into the sky.
"Wow—!"
The extremely cold air spread out, and water vapor gathered in the sky, condensing into snow clouds that covered the sky.
At the same time, as if sensing the call of the Lord of the Ice Field, the cold wind from the Far North howled again, carrying with it snowflakes and hail falling from the sky.
A snowstorm formed in a very short time.
On the ground, Gordon stared at the ice dragon that could summon the wind and snow, and his teeth were itching with hatred.
He had already learned about the ability and strength of the Ice Curse Dragon from Hayata and the others. If the Ice Curse Dragon came to the ground, he was confident enough to lead the team to suppress it.
It is true that this ice field is the home ground of the Ice Curse Dragon, but he also has Anshil, Feng Ying, and Zhu Chop on his side.
As long as the Ice Curse Dragon doesn't fly around randomly, defeating it or even hunting it is not particularly difficult.
However, the Ice Curse Dragon refused to come down, but just hung high in the sky, causing wind and snow.
Even Ansir, who is good at sniping, could not penetrate the strong wind and cause effective damage to the Ice Dragon hundreds of meters above the ground.
Amid the howling wind, Feng Ying thrust the large shield in her hand into the ground and tried to stand firm against the cold wind.
Suddenly, her pointed earlobes trembled, and amid the shrill whistling of the wind, she seemed to catch a strange sound that was completely different from the sound of the wind.
illusion?
No, it’s not an illusion!
It’s that mysterious singing voice that appears again and again!
Feng Ying looked up suddenly.
As if receiving some kind of call, the Ice Curse Dragon hovering in the sky flapped its wings and accelerated towards the south.
The hunters looked at each other and saw a hint of panic in each other's eyes.
South? That's the direction of the Moon's base.
Under the night sky, the Ice Dragon was flying at high speed.
Influenced by the mysterious song, the Ice Curse Dragon's heart was boiling with rage, and his desire to retaliate against humans was at an unprecedented high.
Snow-covered plains and hills flew past quickly, and soon, an icy canyon located between several high peaks appeared within its sight.
The cyan-gold vertical pupils tilted, and the Ice Curse Dragon flipped its wings, rushing into the canyon with strong winds and hail.
Also affected by the mysterious song, the uneasy wind dragons screamed and fled in all directions.
“Ah!”
The Ice Curse Dragon moved quickly through the wind and snow, like a shark rushing into a school of fish, chasing the group of Wind Drifting Dragons flying everywhere.
It accelerated towards the wind dragons that were trying to escape to the north, and in the blink of an eye caught up with the fastest one.
Diving closer, the Ice Curse Dragon dug its sharp claws into the Wind Drifting Dragon's smooth back, penetrating deep into the spine.
The ice blade tail, which had not yet fully regenerated but was already sharp enough, pierced into the soft chest and abdomen of the Wind Dragon, which lacked scale protection, like a scorpion's tail hook, from below, and then twisted it vigorously.
For a moment, the Fengpiaosaurus's shrill wail even drowned out the sound of the strong wind.
The surrounding wind dragons were immediately frightened and turned around, moving away from the terrifying ice dragon.
Loosening its claws, it abandoned the dying Wind Dragon, leaving it to fall into a pool of rotten meat in the mountains, and then the Ice Curse Dragon accelerated towards its next target.
Under its purposeful driving, the scattered wind dragons were gradually gathered together.
Any Wind Dragon that tries to fly around will be brutally killed by it, either frozen into an ice sculpture by its extremely cold breath, or torn into pieces by its sharp claws and icy tail.
The surviving Fengpiaolongs huddled together, trembling like a flock of frightened sheep.
The Ice Curse Dragon's goal was achieved.
It is not easy to control a group of Wind Dragons, after all, they are not the same species. However, it is much easier to take advantage of the fear of the Wind Dragons and roughly control the direction of their escape.
The Ice Curse Dragon was like a skilled shepherd, driving the group of Wind Drifting Dragons to fly south.
Two members of the Beast Clan who had been hiding in the snow and witnessed everything jumped out in a hurry.
One of them twisted its fat but extremely flexible body, quickly climbed to the top of the mountain, and fired a warning flare.
However, due to the wind and snow brought by the Ice Curse Dragon, the height and visibility of the flares were greatly reduced.
Upon seeing this, the captain of the Beast Clan immediately used a bone whistle to call over the ice jackals roaming nearby, and rushed at full speed to the Yuechen stronghold, which was dozens of kilometers away and had no idea of the situation here.
The mysterious singing continued to spread with the wind and snow, its volume decayed to a level that was indistinguishable to the human ear, and finally completely blended into the sound of the wind.
Moon Base.
After finally coaxing little Muti to sleep, Hayata gently put her into the cradle.
For some reason, she felt uneasy.
After closing the window that was slightly open by the night wind, Hayata sat cross-legged on the bed.
She placed the sword horizontally on her knees and tried to calm herself through sword meditation.
However, I didn't expect that the anxiety in my heart became more and more intense.
The feeling made no sense, but she didn't dare ignore it.
After a brief hesitation, she picked up her sleeping daughter and knocked on the door next door.
Mrs. Sterling, who was wearing pajamas and a blanket, ran to open the door. She was a little surprised to see Hayata holding the child outside.
She stepped aside to let Hayata in.
But Hayata handed Muti to her directly and whispered, “Something is wrong, Mrs. Sterling, something bad may happen tonight, I must go and see.
Please help look after little Muti. If you hear any noise, please do not hesitate to take the children to the basement for shelter immediately."
Mrs. Sterling was stunned for a moment, then nodded seriously, "I understand, leave it to me."
After entrusting the child to her, Hayata's tense heartstrings relaxed a little.
After bidding farewell to Mrs. Sterling, Hayata returned to his room, dressed as quickly as possible, put on the Flying Dragon Sword [Black Diamond] on his back, and strode towards the headquarters.
There was light coming from the large tent at the headquarters.
Hayata opened the door curtain and was surprised to find that in addition to the logistics squad leader who usually stayed up late, the swordsmanship master was also there.
This old hunter was also fully armed, but the equipment he wore was no longer the old female fire dragon that he had used for nearly half a century.
Instead, it was a brand new set of frost-white armor.
This is a new type of armor made from Frost Blade Icefang Dragon materials. It is thick yet capable, and the pale fur matches the old hunter with the same white hair.
"you"
"Do you feel uneasy too?" The swordsmanship master spoke first, "Something should happen tonight."
"Yeah." Hayata nodded.
Since she wasn't the only one who felt it, it couldn't be an illusion.
At this moment, the curtain of the headquarters tent was lifted again.
Jean, wearing a Tyrannosaurus armor and even a helmet, came in and said, "I feel something is wrong. Huh? Why are you all here?"
The leader of the logistics squad twitched his eyes, "Is this some kind of katana wielder's empathy?"
Gene spread his hands, "How would I know? I was sleeping, and suddenly woke up with a start. I felt something was wrong, as if something was coming."
The leader of the supplies squad rubbed his aching forehead.
It would be fine if it was just one person, but the three senior hunters who were responsible for guarding the Yuechen stronghold all felt the danger, and the risk could not be ignored.
"In fact, just a few hours ago, a member of the Beast Clan brought Gordon a letter, in which they mentioned that the Ice Curse Dragon might have driven the Wind Drifting Dragon to attack the base.
In order to avoid surprise attacks, they reached an agreement with the Beast Tribe. The Beast Tribe will help us keep an eye on the Frozen Canyon and warn us immediately if anything happens.
At present, we have not received any warning information, but we will see your response.
Alas - I am just a material manager, what do you think I should do in this situation? "
Hayata immediately said, "Wake up the hunters in the stronghold, strengthen patrols, and immediately arrange for craftsmen to check crossbows, artillery and other weapons to ensure they are ready for use at any time."
"I'm going to wake people up!" Gene ran out in a hurry.
He is not afraid of offending people. Rather, he loves doing this kind of thing the most.
"Let me notify the craftsmen." The leader of the materials team closed the account book in front of him, stood up and said.
"Not enough." The swordsmanship master crossed his arms and pondered for a few seconds.
Suddenly, he took a big step, walked to the open space outside the headquarters tent, took out a flare and fired it into the air.
The crimson distress signal illuminated the night sky above the Yuechen stronghold.
