第十四章:极其聪明的计划(9)
The boys then wrapped the feathers up in the material, so that they would fly out when the bomb was dropped.
Each team of ten boys was armed with about a hundred of these feather bombs wrapped in a great parcel made out of an old sail.
Hiccup led the Hooligans toward the Long Beach, while Thuggory took the Meatheads to Unland-able Cove.
The thin column of boys were excitedly chattering as they set off behind Hiccup; Wartihog and Clueless dragging the sail at the rear, the dragons circling and diving a couple of feet above their heads. Vikings are practically fearless, having been bred to be soldiers, so even Hiccup and Fishlegs had a surge of excitement at the thought of the battle to come.
But as soon as the monster came into sight again, the boys and the dragons instantly dropped to their tummies and squirmed forward, hearts beating hard.
It was impossible that ANYTHING could be THAT big.
Hiccup led them as near as he dared to the edge of the cliffs surrounding the Long Beach.
They looked down on the terrible creature snoring in front of them. His nostrils alone were as big as six front doors, and the stench reeking out of them made it difficult for the boys to breathe.
