Monster Hunter: This Fire Dragon has characteristics

Chapter 566 Death Gaze
"Gawoo~~Gawoo~~"

Little Hercules chased after him, while Little Loren ran ahead. Despite the vast difference in their size and imposing presence, Little Loren always seemed to be fleeing in disarray.

Whether it was because a newborn calf is not afraid of a tiger, or because the little fire dragon was not afraid of little Loren at all, its short hind legs did not stop moving at all, no matter how much pressure little Loren exerted.

The little thing charged straight for Loren's heels.

"Hoohoho!"

A low, trembling growl escaped his throat. Little Loren bared his teeth and growled threateningly at the little creature.

"Gah? Ugh!!"

Seemingly intimidated by Little Loren's intimidation, Little Hero Dragon was stunned for a moment, and then actually opened its small wings, which were not even fully developed and whose large head was completely disproportionate, and let out a tender roar that made Luo Yun almost unable to resist curling it into a ball!
The roar left not only the cats of the Fire Dragon Guard watching nearby, but even little Loren looked on in disbelief.

Looking at this little thing baring its teeth and claws in front of me, it wasn't even as big as my head. It was the kind of thing that would be devoured in one bite, leaving not even a crumb.

They actually dared to yell at me back so aggressively! They really have too much nerve!
Even a clay figure has a temper, let alone little Loren who has just been dealt a blow.
After being 'humiliated' by Little He Fire Dragon, if we don't teach it a lesson, would we still be the kind of fire dragon that speaks with strength?

Little Loren grinned, and just as he made a move, he suddenly sensed three very dangerous gazes fixed on him.

It's one thing for my own father to enjoy watching the drama unfold, but he's probably staring at me with that dangerous look because he hasn't had enough fun yet.

The remaining two lines of sight came from outside the nest.

Without a doubt, it must be the Rathalos couple.

It was so difficult to produce such a descendant, and we don't even know if we can produce another one in the future. After all, they are only Elder Dragon-level creatures, not Elder Dragons. Although their lifespan is a little longer than that of ordinary monsters, it is far less than that of any Elder Dragon.

Therefore, they cherished Little Hero Dragon, his only descendant, immensely.

It was already quite uncomfortable because this little thing was closer to Loren, and now Loren actually dared to yell at it!

Even if Luo Yun were here, as long as Xiao Luoren dares to touch Xiao Hehuolong, the couple would dare to rush in and beat him up!
Stared at by three deathly gazes, young Loren felt utterly alone, as if abandoned by the world. He had never received such treatment when he was a child!
Why does this little guy get so much attention? He also wants this little guy to experience what it's like to be curled up into a ball during childhood!
Little Loren's body trembled slightly, his heart filled with turmoil. His wings, which were itching to move, seemed to twitch, twitching once and then putting back down, repeating this motion over and over again.

Little Hera Dragon tilted its head, looking at the 'gritting teeth' little Loren with a puzzled expression: "Gah?"

Seeing that little Loren didn't react, he thought his 'intimidation' had worked, so he immediately let out two more howls.

In the end, little Loren 'yielded' to the little guy's 'intimidation', helplessly lay down, covered his head with his wings, and vented his frustration on the dirt under his feet.

"Gah!!"

Sensing victory, the little fire dragon excitedly hobbled its short legs, straining with all its might to climb up Loren's tail onto his back. Head held high, chest puffed out, it tried to steady itself amidst Loren's breathing, cawing proudly.

Until a certain Moon Dragon with increasingly vibrant scales returned.

Under Aki's seemingly indifferent glance, the once fearless little fire dragon folded its wings like a quail, lowered its head, and quietly slid down from Little Loren's tail.

After realizing that Akie's gaze was no longer on her, she hurriedly pushed aside Little Loren's wings and burrowed under them, seeking a sliver of comfort in that enclosed and warm space. "Click!"

At the entrance of the nest, the sound of Taijing twigs being chewed up could be heard—it was the 'approval' of an old father who had a child late in life!
When Ya Ji returned from her walk, Little Hehuolong dared not cause any more trouble, nor did he have any fun looking at Du Luoyun. He finally got up, stretched, and went outside the cave to find the Haohuolong couple who were secretly hiding nearby to discuss something.

The Rathalos couple will take their baby Rathalos to the Elder's Recess, and this will not change because of Luo Yun's return.

In any case, the Ancient Tree is still inferior to the Elder's Recess; the Elder's Recess is more suitable for the growth of young Rathalos as a Flame Seed.

Luo Yun agreed with this, stating that the number of Radiant Dragons had already reached a point where they needed to spread outwards, and the current carrying capacity of the New World could fully withstand the migration of large numbers of Radiant Dragons in top ecological niches.

Since the Rathalos couple plans to go to the Elder's Recess, why not take the older Rathalos with them, whose physical abilities are beginning to decline, and form a clan there?

In this way, the Rathalos couples who were challenged and eliminated by younger and stronger Rathalos due to their age now have a new place to go.

At the same time, in that place where energy is abundant, one can try to become a stronger individual, extend one's lifespan, and return to the Ancient Tree to reclaim one's nest, thus forming a new virtuous cycle of competition.

As for the stability of the Ancient Tree, not to mention that Loren is about to come of age and his current combat strength is at the level of an ordinary Ancient Dragon, much stronger than Luo Yun was at the same age, there is also the presence of Blazing Village, the Ancient Tree Hunter Guild, and various defensive fortifications.

Take Luo Yun's current lair, for example, which is full of Taijing crystals that carry his aura. Back then, the Steel Dragon only used this place as a foothold, which was enough to deter the creatures living on the Ancient Tree from going to the top of the Ancient Tree. Now that Luo Yun has become a taboo, it goes without saying that he is even more so.

Even ancient dragons, without exception, would be eager to stay far away from Luo Yun once they sensed his aura, fearing that if they were too late, they would become his food.

The only thing worth worrying about is the development of the ancient tree civilization over the next few decades, or even centuries.

While Luo Yun was arranging the future development of the Ancient Tree, the Starry Sky Stronghold was also holding several meetings.

Every senior executive had their own opinion, and even Darren, who rarely participated in senior meetings, expressed his thoughts.

Like the Commander-in-Chief, everyone agreed to send people back to the Old World to participate in the Black Dragon investigation, but disagreements arose regarding who should be sent.

Aside from the opinions of a few individuals, the rest were roughly divided into two camps.

The commander-in-chief planned to send the Grand Master and the sword master to lead a group of four hundred hunters carrying the Ancient Dragonslayer Spear restored by the Ancient Tree Alchemy to provide support, while the remaining young people would stay in the New World to develop.

Darren, on the other hand, believed that the Grand Master and the old hunters had worked hard in the New World all their lives and it was time for them to take a good rest. So he led the recommendation group back to the Old World to conduct an initial investigation. Apart from the young people who had already settled in the New World, he would gather another three or four hundred people to carry out the main battles.

To put it simply, it's a conflict between the older generation's care for the younger generation and the younger generation's desire to understand the hardships of the older generation.

As for the suggestion to ask the Blazing Sun Dragon for help in fighting the Black Dragon, it was rejected from the beginning.

The existence of the Blazing Sun Dragon is crucial to the stability of the New World. Moreover, the battle between forbidden beings has a huge impact and could potentially disrupt the ecology of the Old World.

Whether from a public or private perspective, these are human beings' own private matters and should not involve the Blazing Sun Dragon.
