Monster life starting from picking up materials

“Squeak, squeak, squeak~”

There is no shortage of poisonous substances in this forest, and the toxins extracted from various poisonous substances are even more terrifying.

The corrosive toxin dissolved through the blue dragon's skin and scales. The severe pain caused by the hemorrhagic toxin caused the blue dragon to fall to the ground and roll over. The neurotoxin shuttled through the blue dragon's blood vessels and took its life in an instant.

"Ho ho ho!"

Seeing that his poison was very effective, Xia Long made a happy sound. He noticed the Blue Speed Dragon running sideways, stretched out his claws and scratched it. The Blue Speed Dragon was tripped by the air wall and fell heavily.

Velociraptors may be smart, but they are simply unable to deal with a monster that is not in their perception, and can only be killed by the young Xialong in a toy-like manner.

"Damn it! It's a group of blue speed dragons!"

The few remaining old people in the village also reacted. They picked up the tools at hand and huddled together to face the few blue speed dragons that entered the village.

Having lived on the edge of the forest for a long time, these old men have encountered blue speed dragons many times. Although their physical strength may have declined and their legs and feet may have difficulty walking due to their age, they can still barely hold on thanks to their experience.

"So few people came to attack this time?"

Just as he finished speaking, an even sharper roar was heard from outside the village.

That was the call of the Blue Speed Dragon King. The Blue Speed Dragons surrounding the old people became hesitant in their attack. After one of them was stabbed with a pitchfork by the strong old man who led the group, they turned around and retreated.

"what happened?"

The old man, exhausted from the tension and fighting, sat down on the ground, feeling a little puzzled.

"Who knows."

The dragon village chief, who was surrounded and protected by everyone, walked out and looked outside the wooden wall of the village.

A blurry "blank" is covering and obscuring the huge blue figure.

Chapter 515 Knights and Scribes.

"I thought no one would come into this place."

Looking at the farmer's hurriedly fleeing back, Ji Jie muttered and had no intention of chasing him.

"Roar?"

Nana blinked her eyes and came closer, breathing in and out deeply, as if she was adapting to the poisonous miasma in the air.

With a slight flap of his wings, the poisonous miasma around him was instantly swept away by the wind pressure.

After taking a few steps, Ji Jie raised his upper body, transformed into a Spinosaurus, narrowed his eyes, and entered a foraging posture.

For Spinosaurus, coming to such a toxic environment was like returning home.

Toxic insects and terrestrial poisonous gas frogs are excellent toxic supplements for Spinosaurus.

Hunting poisonous creatures along the way, the two dragons explored in the direction away from the village.

There are no large monsters in this forest. Only small animals such as blue speed dragons and poisonous birds can be seen. No wonder there are human gatherings on the edge of the forest.

Compared to those dangerous large monsters, poisonous miasma is indeed much safer and can also provide special ecological outputs.

They wandered around without seeing any trace of Xialong, but instead the sleepiness of Spinosaurus came over them, so they just found a place to lie down and rest.

Ji Jie was sleeping as soundly as ever, while Nana pricked up her ears to listen to the movements around her while sleeping.

--the other side--

town.

"The poisonous miasma is spreading southward. Two villages have already issued warnings and initiated migration. Those two villages are not far from the town."

"It seems like danger is approaching. Are there any people migrating here?"

The man dressed as a knight stroked the stubble on his chin and asked the receptionist in front of him.

"Well, just now, some villagers came here, and those who went to inquire about the situation haven't returned yet."

This is the largest town in the surrounding area. It is also the gathering point and transit station for villagers' trade, and there is also a guild stationed here.

"Tell me where they are staying, and I will go and see the situation myself."

"Well, good luck."

The receptionist bowed slightly and bid farewell to the knight.

The knight with the kingdom's emblem arrived at the villagers' camp and was somewhat surprised to find that his companions who had arrived with him were already there checking on the villagers.

"They have all been poisoned, and it's not just one or two days."

The scholar wearing a scribe's hat raised his head and took a look, then shifted his gaze back.

At this time, he was prying open the eyelids of a villager and checking the condition of his eyes.

"Xialong's poison?"

"Well, it's not a violent reaction from direct contact, but rather a long-term, chronic erosion."

The scribe nodded and then asked the villagers who were being inspected:

"How long have the symptoms of poor eyesight and dizziness lasted?"

"Probably... it's been about ten days or half a month. The dizziness is only occasional. We all make a living by collecting herbs from the forest, so we're used to it. It's just that the old village chief said it wasn't right, so we moved out."

The middle-aged man is accustomed to migration.

The small village where he lived was always migrating with the changes in the poisonous miasma in the forest, but collecting the precious medicinal herbs in the forest was the way of survival for generations, and they had never migrated too far away from the poisonous miasma forest.

"The village chief hasn't come yet?"

"Well, my son-in-law went into the mountains to collect the last batch of herbs and hasn't come back yet. The old village chief asked us to stay in town first. He and the old man with limited mobility are staying there. We have to go pick them up later."

The man scratched his head, not quite sure what was going on.

"Well, let's have everyone eat less sugary foods these days."

After giving the villagers the usual instructions, the scribe walked towards his companions.

"Xialong's range of operations is expanding, but it seems to be a slow process. These villagers have been poisoned for quite some time."

"I remember the last time I commissioned a subjugation mission for this Xialong was over twenty years ago. Perhaps that guy has forgotten the pain after his wound healed and is slowly testing the waters, right?"

The Kingdom Knight spoke as he recalled the mission files from before he came to investigate.

"I don't think the ancient dragons would be full of temptations. They may have a long sense of time, but they will have full power to act on a single thought. After all, this is too simple for them."

"It's just right. We can follow the villagers' convoy and go to investigate the situation on the spot."

……

The villagers' eyes widened at the messy village. They took out various farm tools such as pitchforks from the carts and ran towards the village in panic.

"Eh!"

The knight wanted to dissuade them, but the villagers were so nervous that they ignored him and hurriedly left the caravan, calling out to their elderly relatives at home.

He could only catch up quickly, keeping his eyes on the corpse of the blue speed dragon beside him.

The death was horrible, his eyes rolled back, there were corrosive scars on his body, and there was blurred dried filth hanging from his mouth.

"Go ahead, I'll take a look at these bodies."

The scribe also caught up and waved his hand to signal the knight to follow the villagers, while he squatted down to examine the body of the blue speed dragon.

The knife peeled off the skin, revealing the flesh and blood vessels underneath that had been corroded beyond recognition by the toxins.

After taking out the antidote and dropping a drop to observe the reaction, they quickly determined that it was a complex poison that killed the Blue Speed Dragon.

There are only a handful of monsters that can cause such a deadly poison, and the only one that may appear here is the Xialong.

The village was caught up in the battle between the Xialong and the Blue Speed Dragon?

Is Xialong already this close? However, the surrounding poisonous miasma didn't make him feel anything unusual, which was obviously not right.

Looking around at the traces left behind, Xialong's way of walking was special, and the footprints he left were very shallow, with only a few knuckle marks. It was impossible to provide a spacing measurement to depict the entire picture, and it was not of much help to the investigation.

But there is no doubt that he is gone.

The scribe looked up and saw that his companions and the villagers had evacuated.

"I've asked about eyewitness reports. These elderly people already have poor eyesight, and their perception has been hampered by living in a toxic environment for so long that they didn't even see the Xialong in person."

"What we can confirm is that the Xialong invaded before the battle and plundered some of the vegetables, fruits and medicinal herbs in the village."

"Oh no, oh no! There's a monster, a huge, huge monster!"

I saw a young man running from outside the village, riding on a wooden cart and breathing heavily.

The scribe stepped forward:

"Don't be impatient, take your time."

The old dragon man's calm and composed demeanor infected the villagers who had just returned from collecting herbs, and their heavy breathing from their intense running gradually subsided.

"When I was picking herbs, I saw two monsters falling from the sky. They were four-legged flying dragons. They must be the legendary ancient dragons. One was red and the other blue. The red one was so big that it could reach the dome of the giant tree!"

Ancient dragons, one red and one blue...

The Kingdom's knights and scribes looked at each other in bewilderment.

Worst case scenario, they need reinforcements.

Chapter 516: Xia Lan’s Death???

The young Xialong was strolling in the forest, holding the small ball between his claws. He wanted to find the trace of the Blue Speed Dragon King.

He failed to kill the creature and it escaped.

However, the poisoned Blue Speed Dragon King should not be able to run far.

Sure enough, the Blue Speed Dragon King didn't run very far. He found it foaming at the mouth in a bush.

Xialong leaned over and bit it. After holding it for a while, he found that it was too heavy and too big, so he had to throw it away where it was.

Xialong, who had lost his target, shook his head. Dujiao felt the flow of air, and the poisonous fog was closing in on his body.

Raising his claws and waving them, he observed the changes in the poisonous mist under his claws and the trajectory of the airflow.

Young Xialong was curious about everything and eager to interact with everything.

The person he most wants to interact with is still his mother.

After laying eggs in a pit, the female dragon will cover them with rotten plants and then leave, leaving the eggs behind.

The young Xialong did not see his mother the first time he broke out of his shell, but he received his mother's kindness all the time.

There are no large monsters in this forest. Even the group of blue speed dragons have been driven away. Various poisonous insects and poisons are everywhere, providing food supplements for the young rosy dragons.

The poisonous miasma destroyed the creatures' sensory systems, making it impossible for them to detect the little mist dragon, whose camouflage technique was not yet proficient.

When he met his mother, she had already grown to full size. Although he had never seen her before, he recognized her as his relative at a glance.

His mother also recognized him, but she was not very interested in him. She would even get scared by him and make a fuss, but most of the time she just ignored him.

Instead, he stuck to them like a follower, eager to learn more knowledge and skills from his relatives and elders.

But his mother would always disappear in the blink of an eye. Her superb hiding skills always made him look for her around for a long time, and she would only go away to find food when she was hungry.

Where is mother?

The young Xialong looked around and only felt that the poisonous fog had become a little thicker.

After searching for a while without any results, he walked deeper into the woods, observing the traces along the way. The newly appeared huge claw marks attracted his attention.

Something I've never seen before!

He stretched out his paw and placed it in the center of the paw print. He was surprised to find that his paw was very small compared to the paw print.

What kind of monster could have such a big claw mark!

The young Xialong began to follow the huge claw marks and move forward, wanting to get a glimpse of the true appearance of the new monster.

But before he could track it too far, he was surprised to find that the footprints had disappeared.

Xialong lowered his head and looked at the place where the claw marks should appear according to the rules, and found a piece of soil that was different from the surrounding area.
