Just as the Hunter prepared for another savage strike a hail of bullets from an unexpected direction tore through its hide. The creature howled in pain as the bullets penetrated its flesh, forcing it to stumble forward.
Richard and his team had arrived on the scene. Without hesitation, they opened fire on the Hunter, pressing the attack.
Richard pulled the trigger of the Franchi SPAS-12 and then cocked the pump action, sending another round of devastating 12-gauge shells into the Hunter's massive frame. He repeated it, again, and again.
The Hunter tried to retaliate, pouncing at Richard and swinging its arm. But Richard stopped it by firing on its shoulder His well-placed shots blew apart the Hunter's shoulder, causing it to recoil in pain. The Hunter's lunge faltered, and it stumbled back, disoriented and wounded.
