Chapter 1710 Who Will Know? -Part 32
And unfold was what the Quacken had done. The Fira Dragon thought it was saved temporarily when he was able to get out of the moat to take a breath but the Quacken was not dead. Its innocent duck head turned its head 180 degrees to quack at it and suddenly at the side of the split, another duck head grew out, just that it was ten times smaller than the original.
It quacked too.
The Fira Dragon did not care and tried its best to move out of the way when it had caught its breath. But there were old medieval cannons from each side of the Quacken Ship that had been aimed at the head and shots were fired against it.
Those heavy cannonballs crashed into its fangs and nostrils but the Fira Dragon was not bothered by the damage and instead eyed those cannons seeing which side of the half broken monster ship it had to burn down first. Yet, it did not know that the crew of Quacken was doing this to break the concentration of the Fira Dragon for the Quacken had something special for the Mechanical Dragon.
Unbeknownst to it, the growth of a small duck head meant that the Quacken was dividing into two. When a monster divides into two, the only possible way for it to retain its individual characteristics is to grow back its remaining features.
Thus, the new tentacles albeit a little smaller than the ones the old Quacken had, grew out of its nether regions and began to combat the Fira Dragon. But how did it do it? There were already huge tentacles grabbing the Fira Dragon from the bottom of the moat by the older Quacken and their prey was able to struggle it out.
It would be stupid for the younger Quacken to even try and attempt to grab the Fira Dragon when the older one was having problems doing so. Thus, it did the opposite. Instead of going underneath, it had decided to overstretch its tentacles and go from the top.
Tentacles surrounded the Fira Dragon's head and pierced through every single orifice that mechanical beings had. From eyes, nostrils, and the throat as well as the small crevices that the metal parts did not cover. The tentacles not only penetrated them, but the Quacken tightened its tentacle muscles, causing secondary spines to emerge and pierce the surroundings. It was a variant that the veteran crew had not seen before and were amazed that this experience had allowed a new kind of Quacken to emerge when they saw those tentacles release spines that could destroy centimetres worth of hardened steel.
The Fira Dragon's AI Logic undoubtedly was extremely pissed by the new development and decided to burn everything that was in its path. Yet the tentacles once they pierced once with their spikes, wiggled in further into the crevices of the Fira Dragon's throat and found the generator that created the fire breath.
Just as it was about to penetrate the generator and render the Fira Dragon useless, one last surviving Mecha Fire Dragon flew to the north of Daimon City, in hopes of rescuing its alpha kind. Injured from the numerous anti air shells that the Battle Airships had done against it, it felt that if there was anything chance to get out of this alive would be the Fira Dragon.
So in a last ditch attempt to save it, the Mecha Fire Dragon dived without regard to its remaining life and poured out the most devastating breath of fire it could ever produce. Seeing an imminent threat, the surrounding boats did what they could do in the name of defending themselves.
However, as they saw the severely injured Mecha Fire Dragon moving, they figured that the only trajectory possible was toward the duel between Fira Dragon and Quacken. Still, the older Quacken did not release the Fira Dragon for fear of its safety. It merely turned its head towards the diving Mecha Dragon and quacked once. The Mecha Fire Dragon did not stop burning the surrounding areas as it dived in one particular direction and assumed that the innocent duck face was unable to do anything. Thus, it also activated its self destruct sequence which would definitely get the Fira Dragon out of the bind that it was in.
"Oh. Niceeee." Jin said as he inched closer to the edge of the helipad as if he was excited for something to happen after the System informed him of something. The rest of the Mechanoids had no idea what was developing behind the scenes until they saw the older Quacken do the impossible.
When the injured Mecha Fire Dragon came into the range of the innocent duck face, it immediately snapped the Mecha Fire Dragon with its beak, surprising the Mecha Fire Dragon thinking that the speed that it was moving would have a huge physical impact against it.
Yet, the Quacken was not only able to stop it in mid air as it stretched its neck and snapped the Dragon but its head and beak grew bigger and started gobbling it up. Short fangs were seen growing out within the beak and a tongue like tentacle was pulling the Mecha Fire Dragon down into its throat.
Even as it struggled to get out of this new predicament, the Mecha Fire Dragon felt futile being shoved into the throat of this innocent duck face but it decided to resign to its fate that the dragon could self destruct and destroy this abomination of a monster.
'2…1…Initiating self destruct." The internal AI voice of the Mecha Fire Dragon said and all of a sudden the throat of the Quacken burst into a series of blood and metal parts flying all around, scaring the crew of the Quacken when they saw it happen.
The only good thing that came out of this was that the Quacken's neck was stretched as it was trying to swallow the Mecha Fire Dragon as a whole. So, most of the crew was still intact from the entrapped explosion. The bad news was that their Quacken had died and the only thing that was holding the Fira Dragon had disappeared.
