Chapter 1584: The Road to Survival is Blocked
"Hey! Come back soon!"
Realizing what Maka was going to do, Oshura screamed, "It's too high up, you can't reach it!"
Maka seemed not to hear and continued to run towards the black dragon.
Her goal was not to shoot down the black dragon or interrupt the attack, but to interfere and buy a few seconds for others.
"I have a way!" Feng Ying released the Kinsect, flew into the air to chase after it, and arrived under the black dragon first.
She recalled the cooperation between Maka and Ted that she had seen many years ago.
After standing still, bend your legs slightly, tighten your muscles to stabilize your body, then raise the large shield above your head and get ready.
Maka understood what he meant and quickened his pace. When he was a few meters away from Feng Ying, he leaped up, waving the insect stick in his hand, and pointed the tip of the stick at the large shield raised by Feng Ying.
"drink!"
At the moment the insect stick came into contact with the big shield, Feng Ying let out a low cry and released her tense joints and muscles, then suddenly exerted force to lift it up.
Although she is slender and petite, she is famous for her explosive power.
Under normal circumstances, Maca can reach a maximum height of about four or five meters by pole vaulting.
But now, with Feng Ying as a "jumping pad" and the power of lifting the shield as a boost, her jumping height nearly doubled and reached a height of seven or eight meters in the air.
Feng Ying, who had completed her task, continued to run towards the movable city gate. While running, she looked back to confirm Maca's situation.
When she reached the highest point of the jump, she raised her hand and fired out her flying claws, successfully hooking the black dragon's head.
As the spring rolled up, she rose rapidly towards the black dragon's head.
The black dragon obviously didn't expect that the hunters would do such a "trick". It subconsciously wanted to open its mouth and bite, but this caused the fire energy accumulated in its body to become disordered.
The high-pressure flame that had not yet been condensed almost jumped out of its throat. The Black Dragon quickly adjusted his breath and stabilized himself again.
At this time, Maka had already arrived in front of the black dragon's head following the pull of the rope.
She did not choose to land directly on the head of the black dragon, but released her flying claws in advance, took advantage of the rising momentum, jumped up and swung the insect stick, hitting the tip of the black dragon's nose continuously.
The preparation process of the black dragon's breath was disrupted once again, but it could only choose to ignore the annoying "bug" in front of it for the time being and continue to compress the air and flame energy to condense the catastrophe fire.
When I am ready, I will burn you all to death in one go!
Maka's risky attack bought the hunters a few extremely precious seconds. They had already climbed onto the platform and the movable city gate was right in front of them.
"Enough! Come here!" Gordon shouted, waving his arms on the podium.
Maka interrupted the attack and free fell.
She waved the insect stick and tapped the black dragon's body several times to use the force to slow it down. When she landed on the ground, she rolled over to relieve the excess force and finally landed safely.
Without her harassment, the Black Dragon's Breath was about to be completed.
Even though she had given up hope, her instinct for survival still drove her to put on fire-resistant clothes and run towards the movable city gate.
With the help of the Kinsect, Feng Ying had already arrived in front of the movable city gate. She waved her hands vigorously, "Hurry! There's still time! Hurry up!"
"Kakaba!"
Babaka also looked like he was going to let go unless the other party came in. He jumped up and down on the platform, urging the other party to come in.
Maka was getting closer and closer. With just three to five seconds left, she would be able to escape safely.
However, at this moment, the black dragon opened its huge mouth.
Endless waves of flames mixed with bright blue dragon flames swept in like a real tsunami, covering the entire battlefield in the blink of an eye, and even invading behind the movable city gate.
The refractory beads inlaid on everyone's equipment emitted light, but they inevitably showed symptoms of burns.
Gordon dragged Feng Ying and Babaka, who were still waving desperately outside the door, behind the door one by one.
The distance between Maka and the city gate was less than twenty meters, but it was too late. Gordon gritted his teeth and was about to give the order to close the city gate.
Dao Wen sighed lightly and moved the mechanism behind the city gate first.
"Bang!"
Amid a loud bang, a heavy and thick steel gate rose up, blocking the continuously invading flames.
They were safe, but no one was in the mood to celebrate.
In the moment before the city gate rose, the scene of Maka running towards this place at full speed flashed repeatedly in front of everyone's eyes. Endless guilt burned their hearts and lungs like flames, making it difficult for them to breathe.
Oshura collapsed to the ground exhausted, and Babaka stood there in a daze, as if he had lost his soul.
But at this moment, a figure wrapped in flames, waving an insect stick, flew over the steel gate and fell towards the crowd.
It’s Maca!
Hayata quickly ran over and caught it, preventing her from falling to the ground.
"Kababa!"
Babaka, who had been as stiff as a sculpture a second ago, jumped up, screamed and rushed over. He didn't care about the heat and hurriedly helped her take off the fire-resistant clothes stained with dragon flames.
Emotions fluctuated greatly, and some hunters who had not yet reacted were stunned for two seconds before they gathered around Maka who was laid flat on the ground by Hayata.
"Get out of the way! Get out of the way, meow! Don't crowd in here and get in the way, meow!"
Xianglan waved her claws to drive the hunters away and poured the recovery medicine from a huge bottle on her back onto her body, cooling her clothes and skin while healing her burns.

Pork Chop inserted a healing chimney at the side, and the fine medicinal mist entered her mouth and nose with Maca's breath, healing her severely burned lungs and respiratory tract.
The mushroom next to it thought about it and also inserted a healing chimney.
Maca was not the only one who was burned, but the injuries of the others were not as serious as hers. The medicinal mist diffused from the healing chimney was very effective for this type of burns.
After recovering from his shock, Maca gave the others a thumbs up.
Because her trachea and vocal cords were burned, her voice was horribly hoarse, but she still smiled softly and said, "I've wanted to learn from that guy for a long time. I'll try saying this, and it doesn't hurt."
With red eyes, Oshura wiped her face with the back of her hand and kicked her toes lightly, "Shut up and heal your wounds!"
"The injury is too serious. It's impossible to continue fighting. Meow." After completing the emergency treatment, Xianglan came to Gordon and whispered.
Gordon nodded and asked the craftsmen to help take her away from the battlefield in the direction of the castle ruins.
Everyone was relieved to see their companions survive, but the battle was still going on. They took the time to prepare, take potions, sharpen blades, and replenish ammunition.
Across the steel city gate, the black dragon's breath of fire continued.
This huge metal door, which is more than half a meter thick, gradually turned red hot under the continuous high temperature burning.
While the hunters have already taken shelter, the black dragon is still spewing dragon fire. Is this a futile effort?
Of course not. The Black Dragon obviously knew that this fire alone would not be enough to burn them to ashes.
But it succeeded in destroying the hunters' last hide.
Next time, wait till next time.
They will have nowhere to hide.
Looking up at the metal door that was gradually liquefying like wax under fire, Gordon knew that there was a dead end ahead.
He let out a breath.
He took off the formless Dharmakāya [Immovable] that was covered with cracks behind him and stuck it into the ground.
Then, he pulled out the evil sword that was stuck beside him - the brilliant black sword [Dragon Strike].
"At the end of the world, the road to survival is blocked"
Gordon muttered to himself, raising Dragon Strike, "We will win, no matter what the cost."
As if sensing his determination, the purple-black evil pupil on the sword guard suddenly opened.
And his pupils were also tinged with a golden color that did not belong to humans.
P.S. There won't be any plot where the dragon suddenly transforms into a half-dragon and grows scales and horns. That would make the style of the painting distorted.
However, it is indeed mentioned in the introductions to many sets of equipment. The concept of equipment eroding its user does exist in the MH worldview. Although it is not reflected in the game, it sounds cool!
By the way, as mentioned in the previous article, there is another person whose pupils are golden.
