Chapter 1492 Little fangirl? No way.
“Ho-ga!”
The pitch-black velociraptor shook its long tail, and its three-edged, thorn-like scales trembled, making a rustling sound that made one's scalp tingle.
"Prepare defense!"
Ansel growled, stopped firing, loaded a supernova into the crossbow chamber, and then placed the heavy crossbow equipped with a thick shield in front of him.
The other two heavy crossbowmen from the Kingdom's artillery team immediately stopped firing, but the excited Luchika didn't hear his orders at all and continued firing at full speed.
Anshil's face darkened.
The next second, the blade scales that could easily penetrate the human body scattered.
Luchika seized the opportunity to fire a few more shots, then retracted her body and entered a defensive posture at the last moment.
"Duo! Duo!"
The blade scales hit the shield with a force that was not like that of a dart, but more like that of a heavy spear, which forced her to step back half a step.
Fortunately, the shield was strong enough and most of the scales were bounced off. Only one or two scales were embedded in the shield surface but failed to penetrate it.
"Haven't you had enough? It's my turn!"
Luchika, who is usually calm and reserved, is like a hot-blooded berserker at this moment. She roars, raises the muzzle of the gun, and pulls the trigger.
"Crack!"
The Kingdom Knight's heavy crossbow [Noble Modified] in her hand misfired.
There were no more bullets in the magazine, and the sound of the firing pin firing blankly was very harsh.
Ansel's brows furrowed even deeper.
Calculating the remaining amount in a magazine is something that shooters must master during their apprenticeship. With Luchika's current level of hunter, it should be like muscle memory. How could she not know it?
The only explanation is that this guy's mind was very confused when he was in hunting mode.
Obviously, he is a very good shooter in all aspects, but is it that he lacks the most crucial quality of calmness?
Why is it like Gail?
No, even worse than Gail.
Gale is best at using the light crossbow. Although his fighting style is not calm, he has very good awareness and is agile.
Many of her actions seemed to be letting herself go, but the monsters couldn't touch her at all.
This person named Luchika is said to be a fire maniac who advocates destruction, so she chose a powerful heavy crossbow as her weapon.
But she didn't have the calmness that a heavy crossbowman needed.
Just like the situation just now, firing two more or two less shots will not affect the battle situation. If you are used to taking unnecessary risks, something will happen sooner or later.
The necessary spare ammunition was not reserved, and there was a gap in firepower, which might give the monster an opportunity to take advantage.
Such people often don't go far, no matter how talented they are.
There may be only one explanation for why she has survived to this day without any disability.
——Like Fiorina and the others, Luchika is not a free hunter, but a member of the Kingdom Knights.
Although he has a hunter's license recognized by the guild, he is usually not under the jurisdiction of the guild and usually regards himself as a knight of the kingdom.
As a special armed force affiliated with the kingdom, they rarely go out alone to fight monsters.
Only with the dedicated support of reliable companions can such "talents" be "cultivated".
No wonder Feng Ying secretly told him before he set out that no one was willing to hunt with this guy, and asked him to be careful.
The fire stopped, and while Luchika was quickly reloading, the Swift Dragon with red eyes swooped over.
Glancing at her action of reloading, Ansel knew that even if he didn't take action, she would barely be able to complete the reloading before the monster pounced on her.
The shotgun magazine used is also suitable for this situation.
At least his quality is pretty good and he is not hopeless.
Ansel made an evaluation in his mind and did not intend to continue observing. He pulled the trigger and the supernova shot out.
The exploding giant fireball knocked the velociraptor to the ground.
While Luchika was stunned, Ansel had already finished changing the bullet.
"Go set up the trap and don't waste any more time."
Facing Ansil's full firepower, the Swift Dragon died quickly and efficiently.
Just as it breathed its last, several strange insects the size of a palm, emitting an ominous red light, flew out from the body of the velociraptor and floated into the air.
"Those are gnawing bugs! Don't let them run away!" Luchika hurriedly changed the shotgun shells, ready to shoot those disgusting bugs that had lost their hosts into pieces.
Anhil fired first.
From the sound of the firing, Luchika could tell that Ansil was using the most basic normal bullets.
Amid the rhythmic sound of cannon fire, the gnawing insects that flew into the air fell down one after another.
Luchika was stunned again.
Gnat insects have the ability to parasitize, infect, and devour powerful monsters, and even the vitality of ancient dragons, but their bodies are very fragile and are no different from ordinary insects.
A larva or a small adult the size of a palm can be crushed to death by an ordinary person with bare hands. If hit by a crossbow bullet, it should be torn into pieces.
Did he break one wing by a glancing bullet? Every wing?!
Not bothering to pay attention to Luchika's surprise, Ansel walked to the gnawing insects that were struggling on the ground.
He poked at the evil little creatures with his metal boots and looked closely at them.
It looks like a goldfish fin, has broad, soft scarlet wings, and a body as thick as a thumb. It looks no different from an ordinary butterfly.
These bugs can actually infect parasitic ancient dragon species?
According to Fiorina and the others, there are more than one or two ancient dragons infected by gnawing insects, including Flame King Dragon and Mist Dragon, which should be able to ignore all parasites.
Why?
Incomprehensible.
However, the good news is that these gnawing insects are fragile.
Ansel squatted down, pulled out a knife and cut off the wings of several gnawing insects.
Avoiding the sharp teeth that resemble leeches, he carefully stuffed them into an empty medicine bottle and prepared to take them back for research.
Maybe we can find some weaknesses.
As for the remaining few, he crushed them into pulp.
He stood up and glanced at Luchika, who had quieted down, and the other two heavy crossbowmen from the Kingdom's Artillery Team.
"Hurry up and get the materials ready to go back."
On the way back, Anshil was relatively silent.
He is not the kind of person who likes to gossip, especially to people he is not familiar with.
Luchika looked anxious.
This time, Ansel brought the three kingdoms' artillery teams to hunt the velociraptors, on the one hand, because he wanted to see with his own eyes what a monster infected by gnawing insects looked like.
Secondly, I also want to understand the strength of their kingdom's artillery team.
Obviously, his performance did not satisfy him.
After arriving in Elgard, Ansel nodded to them politely and left alone.
Luchika, who had apologized many times on the way, wanted to say something about self-reflection, but in the end she was too embarrassed to speak and looked dejected.
The other two companions looked at each other and shrugged, not knowing whether they should comfort this guy who refused to change despite repeated warnings.
Ansel returned to the temporary residence arranged for them by the admiral. As soon as he opened the door, Gail came around him like a snake.
Hanging on him and sniffing everywhere.
Anhil knew she was pretending to be naughty and let her sniff it.
After performing for a while, Gail felt bored and pushed him away, “It’s really boring.
How's your little fangirl's level? "
Ansir had a blank expression on his face, “His strength is OK, but his mental state is problematic. He acts like a madman as soon as he enters the hunting ground.
On the contrary, the other two members of the artillery team were quite good. They followed orders and had a bit of a military feel.
If we had brought back those Molten Dragon Heavy Crossbows, with a little training, we might have been able to revive the Diffusion Heavy Crossbow Team.
If I were to cooperate in hunting, I would choose them more."
"Tsk." Gale smacked his lips.
The topic of "little fan girl" was almost a topic he had to talk about to death.
After dealing with Gail's harassment, Ansel came to a table and took out the parasites that had their wings cut off and were kept in glass bottles.
They have very strong vitality. After being sealed in the jar for such a long time, not a single one died.
Gale came over curiously to watch.
Ansel lit a piece of paper with a candle and moved it close to a gnawing insect to observe its reaction.
"Sure enough, you are not afraid of fire, let's try electric shock next."
Ps.
In the official setting, gnawing insects are divided into three stages: "larvae", "adults" and "hypertrophy" after absorbing a lot of energy.
The rodents here are small adults that have been parasitic for a period of time.
