Nine hundred and seventieth nine chapters destroy the nest
Before Ning Yi could react, a violent explosion was heard in the sky.
"Boom!" A hundred meters high in the sky, a cloud of orange-yellow light mist suddenly exploded, like fireworks exploding in the air, bright and gorgeous.
It turned out that the Xingye launched a crystal high-explosive bomb, which exploded directly in the group of red dragon monsters above their heads.
Apparently, Jiang Yu and Chen Bin already knew that Ning Yi and the others were in trouble.
Then the second, third, and fourth bombs kept exploding in the sky. The cost of high-explosive bombs to deal with the Red Demonic Dragon was much more expensive than the crystal shells. The production cost of one bomb was as high as more than 4 million meters of gold.
.
They only brought ten rounds in total. Now, in order to respond to Ning Yi, they fired four rounds at once. In addition to the one fired earlier, half of the high-explosive rounds have been used up.
In other words, the 20 million meters of gold were just gone.
The red dragons refused to leave at first, but soon, they tasted the power of high-explosive bombs.
Several red dragons were obviously seriously injured, and three of them fell down on their heads at once.
Several others looked seriously injured.
But what surprised Ning Yi and Yang Yu was that these monsters had no intention of leaving.
"There must be something nearby that they want to protect." Yang Yu said with bright eyes.
"The lair of the Red Demonic Dragon?" Ning Yi's heart pounded, and a sentence popped out.
Yang Yu nodded: "I think so."
Ning Yi stared at the sky, still reluctant to give up the red dragon attacking them, and said, "In which direction do you think it will be?"
"Southwest, you didn't notice that even if they were attacked, they would always retreat to the southwest subconsciously?"
"That's all good to you. Let's go and have a look." Ning Yi was not ready to run away, at least wait until he climbed up to have a look before giving up.
In fact, women’s sixth sense is quite accurate.
Yang Yu said that there is a lair of the Red Demonic Dragon, it really does exist!
Yang Yu said it was in the southwest. It was really in the southwest. Just fifty meters southwest of where they had just fought, a large natural depression suddenly appeared.
The large pit is at least a hundred meters in diameter. The middle of the pit is full of unknown rhizome-like alien plants, and the slope of the pit is quite good. It looks a bit like a colorful inverted balloon.
The pit is surrounded by a circle of tall dense forests. These dense forests completely block the pit. If you look at it from the air, you probably won't be able to see it unless you look carefully.
And inside the pit, giant nests like bird's nests stand in clusters like bamboo shoots in the bamboo forest. A rough estimate shows that there are at least forty.
This also means that this is the home of at least forty red demon dragons.
Moreover, in these bird nests, Ning Yi has discovered that many of them contain red demon dragons that have not fully grown up. As well as giant bird eggs that are almost forty centimeters in size, well, or they should be dragon eggs.
"Why are the scenes here not seen in the satellite photos provided before?" Ning Yi asked curiously.
Yang Yu should not be able to answer his question, because after all, she is not Lin Yun, who specializes in intelligence work in this area.
However, Ning Yi underestimated Yang Yu, and she quickly gave an explanation: "Yinliang Island is too small and not too eye-catching. Therefore, the satellite pictures are not very clear, and there are many dense forests here.
It’s not surprising that we didn’t know such a place existed.”
"That's right." Ning Yi nodded, and he took out the dv and started shooting what he saw. However, although the dv has the ability to shoot at night, the effect is not as good as their eyes.
"More than forty nests." Ning Yi stared at the nests below and narrowed his eyes slightly. "We have to do something to help humans."
The so-called doing something to help humans naturally means destroying these nests.
Ning Yi called Chen Bin, who was staying behind on the Xingye, and asked him to tell Jiang Yu to wait for them for another half hour. Then Ning Yi and Yang Yu immediately separated and rushed down.
At this time, the remaining red dragons in the sky became even more restless.
They dived frantically toward the ground, trying to stop Ning Yi and Yang Yu.
But this time they didn't dare to use the beast's roar, because once the beast's roar attacked, their children and those eggs would become cannon fodder.
Ning Yi and Yang Yu encountered much less resistance.
However, those red dragons were not fools. Seeing that there was not much threat in the air, they had no choice but to land on the ground.
The injured and the uninjured all flew to the ground and fought hand-to-hand with Ning Yi and the others directly on land.
But the threat of the red demon dragon that fell to the ground was greatly reduced. Its mobility and agility were all lost, and what was left was relying on their rough skin and thick flesh and their sharp teeth and claws.
Soon, they got a taste of what it means that a fallen phoenix is not as good as a chicken.
Although the Red Demonic Dragon is awesome, there are a lot of trees in these huge stone pits, which makes them bump into each other, and their combat effectiveness is drastically reduced again.
Ning Yi and Yang Yu are both capable of killing each other.
Except for three or four of the dozen or so red dragons who escaped with injuries, all the others died.
They also killed all the little red devil dragons in the natural pit. There were eighteen in total, and there were seven red devil dragon eggs. He smashed five of them, leaving two, which Ning Yi put away.
Prepare to take it back to Zheng Beibei for study.
He wanted to bring more, but the eggs were too big and took up space, so he and Yang Yu could only carry one each.
After finishing all this, Yang Yu looked at the huge natural pit that the two of them had made a mess, and suddenly said a little lonely: "Tell me, are we too sinful?"
Ning Yi rolled his eyes at her: "Cruel? Do you think these monsters will let them go when they see human children?"
Yang Yu shrugged: "I just said it casually."
"We should come here at dawn. How was this natural pit formed? How did the Red Demon Dragon build its nest? What materials were used in the nest? These things are so important." Ning Yi looked at it, feeling a little regretful.
said.
"Don't be discouraged. There is a Red Demon Dragon's lair on Yinliang Island, and there will be one on Shrimp Island as well. At worst, we will go to the island again tomorrow." Yang Yu comforted him.
Ning Yi shook his head: "No, we have already set a time for our return. Now the time until the beast tide comes is getting shorter and shorter. If anything happens, we will be in big trouble."
"If that doesn't work, we can send a drone here. If that doesn't work, we can also have satellites in the sky take some high-definition photos specifically at this latitude. If that doesn't work, we can come back after the beast tide."
When Ning Yi heard this, he was surprised and said: "I didn't expect you to be quite rational now."
"What do you mean? I was irrational before?" Yang Yu clenched her fist and shook it in front of Ning Yi.
"Hey, what about that? Let's leave quickly." Ning Yi picked up the dragon egg and said, "They have to wait."
The two returned to the Xingye two hours later than expected, but their harvest was too great, bringing back a total of thirteen Qing-level crystals. This was enough to build a brand new Xingye.
While the two of them were tossing around the island, the Xingye was not idle either.
According to the predetermined plan, they released drones and dropped sonar detection equipment and signal transmitting equipment into the sea five hundred nautical miles away. They also released drones to fly to the Gonghu Islands. However, the released drones were attacked by the Red Demon Dragon.
Two were shot down, and only one arrived at Gonghu Island.
After that unmanned reconnaissance drone took a lot of pictures and videos, it was also destroyed by the Red Demonic Dragon.
But they had expected this a long time ago, and they didn't really care.
Then, in order to meet Ning Yi, they circled about one nautical mile outside Yinliang Island.
But their behavior is naturally seen as a provocation in the eyes of the Ghostclaw monsters, and this provocation is quite strong.
Therefore, the Xingye was attacked by at least seven to eight hundred ghostclaw monsters.
Xingye was also boring. Although Ning Yi said that the purpose of this trip was not to kill these monsters, people came to provoke them. And they had nothing to do, so they naturally attacked these monsters.
The Xingye went on a killing spree near the sea. After going in circles for three hours, it killed at least hundreds of Ghostclaw monsters and Bloodclaws.
Made a huge profit.
Chen Bin even said excitedly. The efficiency of hundreds of Ghost Claw monsters in three hours has exceeded the number of Ghost Claw monsters killed by so many people on Linglan Island.
If there were two Xingye boats taking turns to hunt offshore, they would definitely make a lot of money.
If they hadn't later seen the Red Demonic Dragons suddenly reunited over Hidden Liang Island, and discovered that they were circling and refusing to leave, the most important thing was that they had discovered that Ning Yi and Yang Yu never came back.
That's when I knew something was wrong.
Chen Bin immediately called Ning Yi directly to ask.
Unexpectedly, Ning Yi never answered the phone.
He made a simple judgment and immediately fired high-explosive energy crystal bombs at the place where the red demon dragons were reunited. After they were dispersed, and just as they were about to launch the drone, Ning Yi and the others took the initiative to contact the Xingye.
Chen Bin breathed a sigh of relief, otherwise the entire battleship would have abandoned the ship and landed on the island to find Ning Yi and the others.
After Ning Yi and Yang Yu returned to the Xingye, it was already past ten o'clock in the evening.
They did not stay any longer and directly ordered to return.
When we returned home, it was calm at first. Probably because we were frightened by the ghostclaw corpses hanging on the battleship, none of those monsters dared to approach.
But when they returned to the 250 nautical mile line, the radar issued a warning and discovered the Red Demonic Dragons.
And the number is extremely terrifying, more than sixty.
Ning Yi's first thought was...
Damn it, these monsters are probably trying to get back the situation.
There are actually very few methods that humans can use to deal with this kind of flying monster.
Although anti-aircraft guns, anti-aircraft machine guns, large-caliber rockets and the like can pose a certain threat to them, they are ultimately not very reliable.
Fortunately, after a long period of research and improvement, special ammunition made of crystals is now able to cause a certain degree of damage to the Spectral Claw monster. Sometimes it hits the vital point and can be hunted directly with one shot.
However, making these ammunition is very expensive, and most importantly, the production efficiency is also very low, so it is quite difficult to popularize them on a large scale.
Therefore, when facing the Red Demon Dragon, it is no problem to deal with it when there are a small number of shares, but if there are too many, the problem will be big.
Jiang Yu counted the ammunition.
The bottom line was quickly handed over: "There are also five energy crystal laser-guided high-explosive bombs and more than seven thousand Phalanx 20mm crystal shells."
Ning Yi did some mental calculations, and to be honest, if he wanted to kill more than a hundred red demon dragons, these ammunition would obviously not be enough, so he could only see if he could scare them away.
But considering that these monsters were probably flying here to retaliate against them for destroying their nests on Hidden Liang Island, Ning Yi didn't know much about whether they would be scared away.
"Activate the first-level protection system." Ning Yi thought for a while and then spoke directly to Jiang Yu.
The so-called first-level protection system means that except for the people in the combat command room, all other people and easily damaged equipment will be withdrawn into the internal cabin of the battleship, and the exposed bridge equipment will be hidden as much as possible.
Then, the armor and crystal shields used to defend against attacks are placed in areas that are easily attacked. Once they run out of ammunition and food, they can retreat to the port at full speed like a turtle.
Of course, it is difficult to say whether it is truly preventable or not.
But no matter what, at least the current defensive capabilities of the Xingye are definitely second to none among the battleships in the world.
Three layers of thick orange-level crystal defense armor at key locations, plus 30 centimeters of shock-absorbing cotton, plus 30 centimeters of armor behind it, can theoretically prevent the Red Demon Dragon from mid- to long-range roars.
Half an hour later, at around 2 o'clock in the morning, the Red Demonic Dragons chased the Xingye, but they were very smart, hanging at an altitude of more than a thousand meters and slowly forming an encirclement on top.
At this time, the Xingye was still 230 nautical miles away from Beiling Port.
After confirming that those monsters were targeting the Xingye number.
Xingye did not waste ammunition.
Now we can’t be extravagant and wasteful. If we can save one, it’s one.
The Crimson Demonic Dragon only stood still for about ten minutes, and soon a tentative attack came.
The five red demonic dragons divided themselves into five directions and began to swoop downwards.
Phalanx will fire immediately when those monsters enter the 100-meter attack range.
Soon, the five pioneers were all covered with scars and flew away stumblingly.
One of them fell directly into the sea halfway.
The remaining four returned to the air and stagnated for a while, and then twice as many red dragons rushed down again, making a second round of probing attacks.
Of course, their fate was not much better.
The six or seven-headed red demon dragon stumbled away with injuries.
But the Red Demonic Dragon did not give up. Immediately, the third round of attacks came.
This time they came with three times as many red dragons.
Although the Phalanx barely managed to repel them, at the same time, a red demon dragon smashed into the battleship with a beast roar.
Crash the battleship into a big dent.
After checking the area attacked by the beast's roar, a sailor on duty was still injured after isolating the armor.
It seems that the thickness of the battleship's armor is still unable to block the attack of the Red Demonic Dragon.
But so far, the Red Demonic Dragon has only carried out three rounds of attacks.
The battleship was attacked. With the number of red dragons, it seemed that the Xingye would not be able to escape easily this time. (To be continued)
