Chapter 1604 [Claws of the Wasteland 8] Mom!!!
It was difficult for Haifa to describe his feelings at the moment.
With some complaints and dissatisfaction, I drove the sand boat alone on the sand sea for several hours.
She kept yawning. It was almost the middle of the night. All she wanted to do was to get back to the city of Lockrak and have a good sleep.
However, at this moment.
She caught a glimpse of a bright red light flashing at the end of the distant sky behind her.
Haifa was stunned for two seconds, then he pulled the rudder and the sail suddenly, and the high-speed sand boat slid sideways in a posture that almost turned over and stopped in a hurry.
Although at this distance it is impossible to see the flare rising into the air directly, no hunter would be unfamiliar with that color of red light.
Combined with the approximate direction and distance, Haifa was basically able to confirm that the flare was sent by Huali.
Haifa's first reaction at this moment was to turn the boat around and rush back as quickly as possible, but her rational mind made her hesitate.
She knew Huali's character too well. If it wasn't a truly emergency situation, the latter would never send out a distress signal.
With her strength as a five-star hunter, she can even try to be promoted to a top hunter in two years. Ordinary monsters can't threaten her at all.
Even the Tailax Dragon, their target, was extremely difficult to kill, it was true, but it was not fast. Even if the two did encounter each other unexpectedly, with Huali's strength, there would be no problem in retreating safely.
Considering this perspective, there are only two possibilities for Huali to launch a flare.
One was that the nomadic village was attacked by monsters and she couldn't take care of it alone. The other was that she was attacked by some monster whose strength was far greater than that of the Tailed Axe Dragon and she couldn't get rid of it.
No matter which situation it was, or whether both situations happened at the same time, it would be difficult for her to break the situation even if she rushed back immediately.
After all, although he was unwilling to admit it, the fact was that his strength was slightly weaker than Huali's.
Plus, this place is very close to Lockrak.
After a quick assessment, Haifa no longer hesitated, quickly adjusted the rudder and cables, filled the sails, and continued to head towards Lokrak at the fastest speed.
Not long after, the huge rock platform of Lockrak appeared before her.
Haifa drove the Saudi ship into the dock of the Saudi fleet.
He jumped off the boat and had no time to do any sort of tidying up of the sails or securing the boat. He shouted to the fleet members on duty in the dock, "I'll bring people back right away", then spread his long legs and ran away like the wind.
The crew member on duty was a little confused, but soon realized that an emergency had occurred.
We consciously prepared the sand boat and pushed it to the exit of the dock for subsequent use.
Haifa did not head towards the gathering place or tavern while running wildly.
Although there will be people on duty there, at this time, most hunters should have gone back to their homes, and it would be too much of a stretch to find suitable reinforcements in a short period of time.
She had better options.
"mom!"
Haifa almost slammed open the door of her house. The loud noise of the door hitting the wall and her loud voice made it hard for the people in the house to hear.
I think half the people on the street are awake.
"What's wrong? What's wrong?" The first person to run out was the father.
He seemed to be still awake, but as a scholar, staying up until midnight was a normal thing for him.
But the person Haifa was looking for was not him. He pushed aside his skinny father who was almost a head shorter than him and continued running towards the bedroom.
Before she could even put her hand on the doorknob, the bedroom door was pushed open from the inside, narrowly missing her face.
"boom!"
This is an inward sliding door. Pushed with great force, the door fell off the door frame, and a figure that could be described as majestic walked out of the door.
Marydan, wearing a tight women's pajamas, had a dark face.
As people get older, their sleep quality always deteriorates. She would certainly not be in a good mood if she was woken up just after falling asleep.
Maridan grinned with his sharp teeth, stretched out his large hand covered with indigo tattoos, and grabbed his daughter Haifa's shoulders to prevent her from slipping away.
If this bastard can't explain himself today, he's going to get a beating.
Under her mother's long-term "education", Haifa, who has acquired a physique far superior to her peers, shuddered subconsciously, but she really had something urgent to do this time.
After listening to Haifa's quick explanation of the whole thing, Malidan frowned and released his daughter's deltoid muscle.
She turned to look at her husband and said, "Something is wrong. Let's go over and take a look. You can go to the guild and tell that mustache guy about this.
The one who could have caused Huali to send out a distress signal must be a high-ranking monster. We were completely unaware that a high-ranking monster had come near the city. This is too dangerous."
Haifa's father nodded and said, "Do you need an airship? The observation airship of the Ancient Dragon Observatory will be back before nightfall. Perhaps we can borrow it."
"No, the wind in the sand sea is too strong at night, and the airboat is not as fast as the sand boat." Malidan waved her hand and went back to the room to equip herself with protective gear.
Haifa hurried over to help.
Her mother has been semi-retired in recent years, and she hasn't seen her mother fully armed for a long time.
After getting dressed as quickly as possible and carrying the torpedo hammer [Dahumaru] on his back, Maridan stretched his limbs and felt that he was in pretty good shape.
"gone!"
She tilted her thick neck towards her daughter, and Haifa quickly followed, and the mother and daughter trotted out of the house.
Haifa's father adjusted his glasses with a worried look on his face. "Be careful."
When she arrived at the dock and saw the fully prepared sand boat, Marydan nodded with satisfaction.
She jumped onto the boat first and shouted to Haifa, "The wind is blowing in the right direction, hurry up and raise the sail!"
Haifa, who was following his mother, had his neck shrunk.
She hurriedly adjusted the sails and rudder, and the sand boat rushed out of the dock like a fish into water, entered the sand sea, and headed at full speed towards the target oasis.
Karin gasped.
The blood from the cut on his forehead mixed with sweat and blurred his eyes.
After simply wiping it with the back of her hand, she continued running.
She couldn't explain how she had managed to survive the fierce pursuit and attack of the Boom Dragon for the past few hours.
The bones in his left arm were broken, and any movement was excruciatingly painful. The wounds on his back were difficult to stop bleeding, and he had countless other major wounds.
The only thing to be thankful for was that he was not hit directly by that pair of terrifying claws, otherwise it would not be just a simple "wound".
"boom!"
The giant claw slammed down towards her again.
Squeezing his remaining strength, Huali tried his best to avoid the claw and rolled to the ground.
Her body was as heavy as a sack filled with sand and gravel, and the massive blood loss made her eyes go dark for a while. But driven by a strong desire to survive, she gritted her teeth, supported her body with both hands, and rolled forward again.
"Boom!" Another loud noise.
Gravel and sand flew around like bomb fragments. If she had hesitated for even a moment, she would have been hit by countless sharp pieces of stone.
After the previous dealings, she had already roughly figured out the attack habits of this Boom Dragon.
Just like the claw just now, under the overly strong muscle power, the pair of huge blue claws can easily embed into the ground.
But also because of its amazing strength, its claws will not get stuck so easily. Instead, it will use this to lift up the rock layer and use the flying debris to hit the opponent.
There are many similar "moves".
Tail strikes with astonishing range, smashing of huge rocks, terrifying roars that can directly injure people, and so on.
If she was in her prime, she might be able to avoid it with her concentration, but her body was no longer able to hold on.
