Monster Hunter: This Fire Dragon has characteristics

Chapter 35 Black Flame King

Today, another pair of fire dragon couple left the ancient tree. Most of the fire dragon families that are still staying in the ancient tree are very powerful, and there are even many battle-hardened fire dragons.

Anyone who has reached this level of strength knows very well how much benefit the rich life energy of the ancient tree has brought to them, and they will not leave until the last moment.

In the past few days, I don’t know whether Xialong is no longer disturbed by the noise of Tiandi Huangtilong, or whether it has no intention of moving towards the ancient tree after the last encounter with Luo Yun. In any case, Xialong has not appeared again.

But Luo Yun did not relax his vigilance. These days, he has been thinking about why Xialong moved towards the ancient tree.

The most likely conclusion finally drawn is that Xialong came for the ancient tree's geocentric node.

Judging from the migration of Thunder Wolf Dragon and Swift Dragon, the place where Xialong was before was not close to the ancient tree. The interference of Tiandi Huangti Dragon was just an inducement. After Xialong left its original habitat and moved farther and farther away, it probably had the idea of ​​migrating away.

This time, he is probably planning to settle down in the ancient tree. This is completely different from Luo Yun’s original idea that after the Tiandi Huangti Dragon falls into sleep again, the Xialong will return to its own territory.

The impact of an ancient dragon changing its place of residence will be enormous, which means that the ecological pattern of the ancient trees will be completely broken. The ancient trees will have to suffer an unparalleled heavy blow before they can slowly re-form a new ecological environment, a new ecological environment based on the characteristics of the ancient dragon.

The weak adapt to the environment; the strong change the environment.

The more powerful the ancient dragon is, the more it has the ability to change the surrounding environment and transform it into an environment suitable for its own growth and living.

They don't need to take the initiative to do anything, they just need to stay there for a long time, and their own characteristics are enough to subtly influence everything around them.

After clarifying Xialong's purpose, Luo Yun has been paying attention to the situation near the ancient tree for some time.

Sure enough, today, thick white fog began to rise at the border of the ancient tree area. As if it had made final preparations, the thick fog began to move towards the ancient tree with a very clear purpose.

After the thick fog appeared, some creatures with keen perception have begun to flee.

In the sky, Archaeopteryx, pterosaurs, abominations and other flying creatures fled in groups, making the sky a sea of ​​darkness.

In the woods, monsters like the thief dragon, the flying thunder dragon, and the velociraptor that had not yet left were also trying their best to stay away from the thick fog, shuttling through the intricate forest, with the sound of dragon roars continuing.

At this moment, no matter whether they are natural enemies or whether they have a mutual restraint relationship, none of this matters. As long as they can stay away from this poisonous fog, surviving is the right choice.

The fire dragons, sensing something was wrong, began to leave their nests, flying around the ancient tree while roaring to convey information. For a moment, the upper level of the ancient tree forest seemed noisy.

The fire dragons finally quieted down until a giant male fire dragon appeared, nearly twice the size of a fire dragon and more than 30 meters long, with a tough shell composed of alternating black and red, huge wings that covered the sky and the sun with golden patterns flashing, thick scales with a faint scent of burning, multiple scars all over the body, and bone spurs that looked like a king who had experienced hundreds of battles, and let out a loud and loud roar.

As if they had a backbone, they gathered on the ancient tree branches near the fire dragon, quietly waiting for the other party's instructions. Luo Yun was also among the group of fire dragons, looking straight at the huge fire dragon that was just flying calmly in the sky but exuding an extremely tyrannical aura.

He recognized it!
He never thought that there would be such an existence in the New World.

He has lived in the ancient tree city for some time and has flown around the ancient tree countless times, but has never found any trace of it.

And logically speaking, even if it exists, it should not live in the ancient tree. Looking at the entire New World, perhaps the Dragon Crystal Land is the only place where it should appear.

It is not a subspecies. In essence, it is just an original male fire dragon. It may have transformed into its current appearance due to environmental reasons, special experiences, or extremely rich combat experience.

In the records of human scribes, this kind of existence is given a special name, the so-called "two-name" monster.

The dark overlord among fire dragons - the Black Flame King!!
The moment the opponent appeared, Luo Yun felt that his constant planning and simulation of the battle with Xialong in his mind were simply the behavior of a living clown.

With the existence of the Black Flame King who can fight ancient dragons head-on, an immature Xialong is nothing.

Just when Luo Yun thought he could rest easy and wait for the Black Flame King to take action himself, rush into the poisonous fog to find Xialong, and beat him up, the Black Flame King actually made a very abnormal move.

It actually invited those battle-hardened fire dragons to leave with it, to go to that special place full of life energy, to seek the possibility of breaking through the limits of lifespan!

Luo Yun was stunned. What the hell! What the hell!
I have seen people fiercely resisting because their homes were invaded, and I have also seen people leaving sadly because they were powerless to do anything.

I didn't expect that in this world full of blood and fighting, full of the naked law of the primeval jungle, there would be such people who take advantage of the situation to rob and dig up the old people's secrets!
Is this still the Black Flame King?
No, even Luo Yun thought, is this guy who looks so domineering really a fire dragon?
Why does its behavior seem so out of place in this bloody world?
So with this thought in mind, Luo Yun once again carefully looked at the Black Flame King who was still inciting the tribe. This look made him discover something was wrong.

The edges of the gaps between the scales of this Black Flame King were faintly grayish white.

Although it seemed to be still strong, it actually only emitted a burst of hot breath when it first appeared, and then it became completely cold, just like a bonfire that was about to burn out. Although there was still temperature in the center, the surrounding area was already a circle of burnt out ashes.

It is obvious that the Black Flame King has entered his twilight years!

Its lifespan is about to come to an end.

Its body no longer allows it to engage in high-intensity combat. As a single dragon, even if it reaches the Dragon Crystal Land, it cannot occupy a good position, and it cannot even calm down and accept the bath of life energy.

So it set its sights on these battle-hardened fire dragons.
