Chapter 659 The Air Battle Ends
As Han Shuo's blade fell again and again, the "Great Vulture's" wings became covered in wounds.
"roar--!"
It roared angrily, its flight speed slowed considerably as it ascended into the clouds, and it even seemed to be teetering on the edge of the sky.
Nevertheless, it still tried its best to maintain its balance and not fall to the ground, as if it knew that once it hit the ground, it would be its death day.
Furthermore, the "great vulture" did not remain passive and wait for its fate; its scorpion-like tail finally launched its first counterattack!
...
At this moment, Han Shuo was using his Tang sword to vigorously slash at the wings of the "Great Vulture".
Suddenly, a sonic boom, like the crack of a whip, rang out.
"Smack!"
In the moment of crisis, he quickly stopped swinging his Tang sword, turned around and held the sword horizontally in front of his chest, the whole movement flowing smoothly.
Ever since he discovered the strange appearance of this hybrid creature, he had been wary of its peculiar tail.
Even when attacking the "Great Vulture's" wings, they never dared to relax their vigilance in the slightest.
He reacted in time the moment the enemy launched a counterattack.
Unfortunately, this scorpion-like tail was even more terrifying than Han Shuo had imagined.
With a "clang!" sound, the long, black spike made contact with the Tang sword.
...
"Holy crap, that's incredible power!"
Han Shuo couldn't help but mutter to himself. After blocking the "Great Vulture's" attack head-on, he didn't suffer any real damage, but he was sent flying by the powerful force.
Keep in mind that he was high in the air at that moment.
Having detached from the "Great Vulture's" body, he flew backwards and crashed rapidly towards the ground...
"Damn it, this is tough!"
Even in zero gravity, Han Shuo cursed under his breath, but didn't seem too panicked.
He tapped his left hand on his back, and a hang glider unfolded! This was the reason he dared to be carried into the sky by the "Great Vulture".
...
Since their last evacuation from the Silver Hair Base, Han Shuo, Fatty, and Xiao Zhao have been carrying this glider device with them at all times.
Having tasted the benefits of flying, they naturally kept this equipment for emergency use.
Although the battle with Wai Di involved several shockwaves from explosions and damage to the three gliders hidden in the backpacks, there was no shortage of such high-end technical personnel when they arrived in Ice City.
Hank's experienced technicians easily repaired the three damaged hang gliders back to perfect condition...
This time, for the cross-sea expedition, Han Shuo carried the device with him at all times, and even borrowed Xiao Zhao's wind device in case of emergency.
...
After the hang glider unfolded, Han Shuo regained his balance.
"Whoosh—!"
He controlled the joystick behind him, and with a dive, used the airflow to regain altitude.
As he hovered in mid-air, his eyes turned cold, and he charged towards the "great vulture" ahead once more.
Normally, the glider would be slower than this "great vulture," but now, with both of its wings severely damaged and its speed greatly reduced, the glider has gained the upper hand.
Before long, he flew back to the "Great Vulture's" side, immediately retracted the glider on his back, and landed on it with perfect precision once again.
"Damn it, again!"
After the minor incident that ended without serious harm, he brandished his Tang sword and continued to slash at the opponent's wings, trying to finish the task he hadn't completed earlier.
...
"roar--!"
The "great vulture" became extremely agitated when it realized it couldn't shake off the annoying reptile while in the air.
It twitched its scorpion-like tail and launched another counterattack!
This time, however, Han Shuo was smarter.
He no longer chose to take the hit head-on; to avoid being knocked away a second time, he dodged to the side.
Although the tail is fast, its reaction speed is even faster.
"Smack!"
The sharp spike at the tip of the "Great Vulture's" tail grazed his face, and Han Shuo successfully dodged the attack.
However, that wasn't all; he didn't give the other party time to retract its tail again.
brush!
After a sharp flash of light, the spike at the tip of the "Great Vulture's" tail was severed by him!
...
However, the next moment, before Han Shuo could feel any joy, his expression suddenly changed.
After he cut the spike off, a large amount of green liquid suddenly gushed out from the gap, and a pungent, fishy smell immediately filled the air.
Without the slightest hesitation, he abandoned the fight and leaped directly from behind the enemy.
When he saw this green, unidentified liquid, he knew without a doubt that it was highly toxic.
He had no desire to experience what it felt like to be poisoned.
...
During the descent, Han Shuo did not rush to re-deploy the hang glider.
He turned his body, facing the sky, and focused his gaze on the "great vulture" above.
Just as he had expected, when the unidentified green liquid landed on the "Great Vulture," it emitted wisps of white smoke, accompanied by a sizzling, corrosive sound.
...
As Han Shuo watched the "Great Vulture" gradually become more and more shaky, his expression also became complicated.
"Holy crap, it's not just that it's highly poisonous and corrosive, it also attacks indiscriminately, friend or foe?"
After observing for a while, he shook his head with a wry smile, unfolded the hang glider on his back, ignored the "giant vulture" above, and prepared to return to the ground.
Because he already knew that the battle would end without him having to lift a finger.
...
Meanwhile, as the green venom began to corrode the "Great Vulture's" already damaged wings finally gave way.
One bloody hole after another appeared. How could they fly when their wings were leaking air?
Unsurprisingly, its enormous body immediately began to sway precariously, and soon it completely lost its balance, crashing straight to the ground.
This powerful vulture tragically harmed itself indirectly because of the venom in its own tail.
It is immune to the toxicity of the venom, but not to its corrosive properties after exposure to air...
...
On the other side, not long after, Han Shuo retracted the glider behind him and landed smoothly.
When the fat man saw this, he was really worried for him and hurriedly went to meet him.
At this moment, Han Shuo walked forward with a smile on his face. Just a few steps ahead, dozens of meters behind him, the "Great Vulture" crashed heavily to the ground.
Boom! Dust billowed up...
