hunt and eat

Although in the eyes of the world, the ancient dragon class and the natural disaster class are basically two words that draw equal signs, but in fact there are still some differences between them.

To explain this, a concept must first be clarified.

Although they are all at the level of natural disasters, each race has an ancient dragon species corresponding to [Authority]. Under normal circumstances, their strength is actually far superior to monsters and hunters at the level of natural disasters.

If we really want to divide a category of strength, it is roughly between the senior natural disasters and the peak natural disasters. A small number of ancient dragon species may still have the kind of old monsters that have stepped into the taboo and spread in poetry and nursery rhymes.

Of course, regarding the second point, not many people can actually prove it. At least during the war against heaven 50 years ago, these suspected ancient individuals did not show up.

So many people suspect that these old monsters have long since dissipated in the long river of history, and even existed only in people's fantasy from the very beginning.

The topic is a little bit far away. All in all, the standard of the ancient dragon level is basically the interval between the senior natural disaster and the peak natural disaster, which is the level of the old mountain dragon perceived by the ancient pagoda.

Very strong, but not strong enough to suppress everything, this description is generally more appropriate.

"This guy showed up in such a high profile, isn't he afraid of being besieged by other monsters?"

Weiwei looked at Guta curiously.

She knew Lao Shanlong, after all, it was one of the very few ancient dragons that frequently moved on the mainland.

According to the Gulong Research Institute, although a large number of Laoshanlong individuals live underground and dormant, a relatively active individual will appear every hundred years and migrate irregularly across the continent.

Although the old mountain dragon is not a grumpy ancient dragon, and would not even be wary of ant-like humans, it is similar to a giant species like the stockade crab, except that it is more stubborn about its own route. If there is an object blocking the way, it will be destroyed desperately. Therefore, in the early years, human strongholds were often destroyed by Lao Shanlong because they blocked the way of Lao Shanlong.

Of course, as the Hunter's Guild gradually matured, the guild also took special precautions against this situation, that is, building a giant fortress to force Lao Shanlong to divert.

Not to mention, the stronghold of the Hunter's Guild, East Doruma, and the huge defensive facilities at its entrance were originally built to deal with the attacks of Lao Shanlong. Of course, now it has become more of a landmark building and Historical relics come for the world to admire.

Generally speaking, Lao Shanlong's huge size is certainly a headache, but in the Hunter's Guild, which has produced a large number of masters in the past century, there are still many strong players and teams who can make Lao Shanlong retreat in spite of difficulties.

Regarding Weiwei's statement, Guta thought for a while, and finally shook his head: "Monsters that can't help but attack can't hurt Lao Shanlong, and monsters that can threaten it will not rush to attack before the goal is achieved. That’s pretty much the case now.”

Just kidding, none of the monsters that can go all the way to the level of natural disasters is a fool, rather, on the contrary, almost all of them are as cunning as old foxes.

Since they gathered here for certain purposes and reasons, they probably wouldn't be overwhelmed by a sudden old mountain dragon.

Unless the other party directly threatens their own interests.

Chapter 61 Control the Thunder, or Eat the Thunder

"Has the old mountain dragon gone far?"

More than half an hour later, Weiwei, who had a short rest and walked out of the ancient forest, stood on a certain high slope, looking at the huge "Pillar of Heaven" towering into the clouds in the distance, and said somewhat uncertainly.

The area around Sky Mountain, because of its special weightless environment, can be said to be barren of grass, so even if there are several kilometers away, it can still be said to be unobstructed.

And in Weiwei's field of vision, it seems that she didn't see the huge figure of Lao Shanlong.

Of course, the possibility of the opponent going around to the side of the mountain, or directly climbing up the Sky Mountain is not ruled out.

"Maybe, I'm not sure."

Guta scratched his cheek, and responded indifferently.

The disordered magnetic field near Tiantian Mountain has seriously affected the expansion of his perception. Coupled with frequent wide-area exploration, it is easy to arouse the vigilance of Laoshanlong. There is no further perception.

At this moment, it is natural to not know the specific whereabouts of the other party.

Although he didn't care too much about this matter at first.

"The old mountain dragon should be the one that has been active in the past ten years. If I remember correctly, the code name is... [Fudo Peak]?" Nia whispered, recalling the large amount of information in her mind.

"[Fudo Peak]?" Guta frowned unconsciously.

Although Nia didn't know as much information about this aspect, he had heard about the [Fudo Peak] to some extent.

It is said that it is the most powerful among the three old mountain dragons currently recorded. It is a proper peak natural disaster level. According to the rough estimates of scholars, its life span is between 5000 and [-] years. It is a veritable dragon. Old Antique, both in terms of ability and strength, is quite mysterious.

The most recent blocking battle against its advancing route did not really happen because of the opponent's deliberate avoidance.While this is a good thing, it also lacks sufficient intelligence details.

If it is really the ancient of this ancient dragon species, things will become interesting.

The Sky Mountain area has never been the route of Lao Shanlong. Since the other party showed up here, there is a high probability that he is also rushing towards the Black Erosion Dragon.

Is the ancient dragon also interested in the black erosion dragon's ability to help other species break through their limits?Or……

Guta, who lowered his head and thought about things, accidentally bumped into the back of Weiwei who suddenly stopped in front of him.

"What's the matter, suddenly stopped."

"Look there..." Weiwei pointed to the open space in front of her with some surprise.

Perception is gradually released, and in the special "vision" of the ancient pagoda, it is full of scorching marks and blast holes at the moment, as if it has been bombarded.

It is worth mentioning that there are a large number of flickering golden yellow and dark blue electric arcs on the scene, as if they are incompatible with each other. Once they appear in the same position, they will inevitably cause violent explosions.

"Golden lightning, blue lightning... they all look familiar."

Slowly leaning down, Guta's right hand was filled with white light, and he activated gravity to suck a small part of the phone into his palm.

"The golden one is the mixed type of thunder and lightning on the golden lion. As for the blue... unicorn?"

There was a numbness in the palm of his hand, Guta pulled the corner of his mouth, and muttered in surprise.

"Kirin?!" Qiaoqiao beside him had sharp ears and became excited all of a sudden.

Qilin, a special ancient dragon species with a unicorn appearance, is more like a white horse than a dragon.Because of its similar skeleton and shape to a horse, even now many scholars still question its identity as an ancient dragon species.

Of course, the Longli Institute and the Ancient Dragon Research Institute have discovered a special material called [Ancient Dragon Blood] from Qilin's corpse more than once, which is only possessed by the ancient dragon species. Ability can basically prove his identity as an ancient dragon species.

In addition, because Qilin rarely appears in front of human beings, and its shape is completely different from other ancient dragons, it is naturally covered with an indescribable mysterious veil, so it is called "Phantom Beast" by many people.

Whether it is popularity or discussion, it is a high existence in the group of hunters.

Many hunters have fantasized about owning a unicorn mount and boasting in front of their friends when they were young... Although it is a bit absurd, it is indeed the youth of many people.

"Um, it can only be a unicorn that can leave this level of current on the scene." Guta's perception swept the surrounding ground, and obviously felt a lot of strange tingling sensations.

Only the thunderstorms caused by unicorns can have this kind of blocking and even destructive effect on perception, and this is something that even those powerful monsters that are stronger than unicorns cannot do it.

As an ancient dragon species, Qilin's authority should undoubtedly be [Thunderbolt], no matter in terms of strength or nature, it is beyond the reach of ordinary monsters.

"There are many footprints of monsters at the scene, including the shape of the soles of people around us, and the footprints of horseshoes... Are these also left by them?" Nia said slowly while leaning over the traces of the scene.

"Well." Guta, who had already used the ability of the [Shenmingling] to collect nearby information, nodded and said: "Although it is a bit unbelievable, it should be a tentative fight between the golden lion group and the unicorn group. , both sides seem to have suffered nothing so far.”

"The number of golden lions is about twenty, maybe less than a few, and the number of unicorns is about twelve or three... Interesting, I have heard that the species of golden lions and unicorns are sworn enemies. I thought it was nonsense. I didn’t expect it to be true.”

Guta smiled and shook his head, but he couldn't help but recall the story that Ren told himself that happened in their village.

At that time, Cassius and the others had witnessed the battle between the unicorn and the golden lion, and the latter was suspected to have acquired the ability to control the extremely special golden thunder and lightning by devouring the unicorn's horn.

Taking this into consideration, the golden lion and the unicorn are obviously ecologically incompatible populations, and they have probably become mortal enemies long after years of fighting with each other.

One controls the thunder and lightning, and the other devours the thunder. There is no other way to get along except life and death.

In addition, although Qilin is an ancient dragon species, it also has the strongest element control ability in nature [Thunder], which should be stronger than the Golden Lion in terms of strength, but the hair with special structure of the Golden Lion is obviously also capable of opposing The extremely strong resistance to thunder and lightning, coupled with the terrifying physical fitness that can be called concentrated essence, does not seem to suffer much in the fight against the unicorn, and even conversely, it has the meaning of restraining the unicorn.

From this point of view, it is really a strange thing that the unicorns, which are obviously not dominant in numbers, have not been wiped out by the golden lion group.

Especially on the side of the golden lion, there is obviously a powerful and unique individual that can destroy the ground into such a tragic state as if it has been swallowed by molten lava.

"[Red Lotus Lion]... that old guy is here too?" While Guta frowned, he also understood in his heart why the golden lions, which don't have the habit of living in groups, appear here in groups.

"To be able to confront the group of golden lions led by this monster, there must be a very strong leader on Qilin's side."

"However, according to the information from the Longli Academy, the ancient species of the Qilin family should have died in the hands of the Red Lotus Lion more than 50 years ago, so is it the newly born [King]?"

Chapter 62 Sky Mountain and the Legend of the Lithosaurus

After walking through a veritable wilderness with nothing but stones, the Canglan Star team soon arrived at the destination of this mission——

At the foot of a super-giant mountain that soars into the clouds and can't see the end at a glance.

It is worth mentioning that the outer side of the mountain presents a distorted shape that seems to have been cut by a knife blade, or entangled by something, which gives people a shocking feeling at first glance.

What is even more exaggerated is that somewhere on the mountain, there is even a section that has been half-cut, thus forming countless fragmented mountains that maintain a minimum connection in an extremely unnatural state of disconnection.

"It's really weird, won't the mountain collapse when it's twisted like this?" Weiwei asked in surprise, pointing to the weird spiral mountain above her head with half admiration and half doubt.

"There are a large number of [Sky Flash Stones] in the mountain body of Tiantian Mountain, which is enough to offset the weight of the huge volume." Guta obviously knew some inside information, and quickly answered Weiwei's doubts.

But then a new problem arose.

"[Sky Flash Stone]? What is that?"

"I've never heard of..."

Weiwei scratched the back of her head and looked at Guta curiously.

"It's normal if you haven't heard of it. This is not a natural creation, but the ore is affected by the power of a super-standard monster, and the resulting by-product."

Eyeless eyes looked at the location of Sky Mountain, Guta said in a nostalgic tone: "Sky Mountain was originally just a relatively ordinary mountain more than 50 years ago... well, I know, this mountain is a little higher , but you are all people who have been to Yiqun Ridge, so you shouldn’t make such a fuss, right?”

Coughing, Guta slapped Weiwei hard on the back of the head, who wanted to make trouble, and continued: "I don't know if you have heard that for more than 50 years, the Venus Hunting Group at that time was supported by the Hunters Guild's logistics. , I once carried out a nine-star world-class mission in Qianjian Mountain, and that is also the only nine-star mission released by the Hunter Guild since its establishment."

"I know~ I know!" Jojo suddenly became excited when he mentioned the past stories of these heroes, "It's the [Snake King Dragon] crusade, right? crusade."

Nodding his head, Guta motioned for them to sit down, leaning against a half-pillared rock and said: "Although that crusade failed to kill the only [Snake King Dragon] left in the world, it undoubtedly did severely damage it. , preventing it from further messing around in the surface world."

"Nonsense?" Nia tilted her head, not quite understanding why Guta used this word.

"Yes, nonsense." Guta emphasized his tone, pulling the corners of his mouth and giggling, "Although for the snake king dragon, it may just be bored in the bottom for a long time, and it is rare to want to go to the ground to breathe and take a walk, but with the opponent It has a terrifying body size of 500 meters in length alone, even if it just passes by somewhere, it will cause irreparable and devastating damage to the local terrain."

"It is precisely for this reason that the Hunter's Guild will not hesitate to issue an annihilation mission to it."

"But what does it have to do with Sky Mountain?" Mie Jin raised his face seriously, and asked in a low voice: "Although Qianjian Mountain is not too far away from Sky Mountain, they are two mountains after all, right? "

"How should I put it..." Guta scratched one side of his cheek, and gave a more vivid example, "The relationship between Qianjian Mountain and Sky Mountain is basically the two victims of the serial eucalyptus."

"Huh?" Weiwei opened her mouth wide, and some didn't understand what this sentence meant.

At the same time, Nia showed a thoughtful expression on her face: "I understand, Guta, you mean that the strange shapes of Qianjian Mountain and Sky Mountain are all caused by snake king dragons?"

"As expected, you are the only one who can keep up with my train of thought." Giving a thumbs up to Nia approvingly, Guta chuckled and continued:

"The habits of the snake king dragon are similar to those of snakes. It likes to wrap itself around some columnar things... Considering the exaggerated body length of 500 meters, only those mountains can meet its habit needs in this aspect. Coupled with the fact that the body surface is covered with hook-shaped scales called [Sword Scales], almost none of the mountains passed along the way was spared, and all of them were cut into tragic shapes like Sky Mountain."

"Then [Sky Flash Stone]..."

Nia pointed to the huge boulders floating in the air outside the distant mountain peaks from time to time.

"Although [Snake King Dragon] is a bit out of specification, it is indeed an ancient dragon species, so it also holds some kind of authority that can be called heaven's punishment."

Guta raised his head, and memories related to Guta and Neva kept appearing in his mind.

"It's an unknown energy that shimmers with a pale light. Normally, it appears as some kind of platinum particles visible to the naked eye. It possesses a terrifying high temperature that can burn anything it touches."

"Under the control of the snake king dragon, this special energy manipulated by it can wipe out almost all existence in the area, whether it is mountains or life energy, it will be completely wiped out from this world without discrimination. From the perspective of energy level It has properly arrived at the realm called taboo."

"What's even more frightening is that the snake king dragon can summon countless meteorites from the unknowable deep space by releasing a large amount of this energy particles... Don't ask me how I did it, I don't know."

"Tagul once explored the sky of this world after mastering the ability to fly, but no matter how hard he tried, reaching an altitude of [-] meters was already his limit, but even at that height, he still hadn't seen any For things related to meteorites, the ghost knows where the snake king dragon was summoned from."

Seeing that Weiwei, who looked like a "curious baby", wanted to ask a question, Guta said it without thinking.

"As for Nia's question, how did [Skylight] form..."

"Let's put it this way, those meteorites summoned by the Snake King Dragon are the original [Sky Flash Stone], which is also called [Bad Star] by many people. It has the unique ability to counteract gravity and suspend in mid-air. "

"In addition, in the area affected by the special energy of the snake king dragon, the ores in it will gradually be assimilated into strange minerals similar to [Skybolt] within half a year to a year. From this point of view , Those [Sky Flash Stone] meteorites summoned by the Snake King Dragon may have been ordinary extraterrestrial minerals at the earliest time, but they were transformed into [Sky Flash Stone] by the influence of that unknown energy."

After saying this, Guta picked up the water bottle on his waist, drank a few sips of water, and used his senses to fully appreciate the astonished faces of his companions who were still immersed in the story.

This kind of feeling of being raped by the world view, although it happened to me, I feel very uncomfortable no matter how I look at it, but from the perspective of a bystander, I really have something to say.

……

Chapter 63 The So-Called Taboo

"Can [Skylight] be used to make props and equipment?"

After a long time, Weiwei suddenly raised her head, her eyes stared at the endless sky mountain above her head.

A monster like the snake king dragon, which can be called taboo power, the [Sky Flash Stone] it produced should be very powerful... And there is a whole mountain of materials in front of me. If I make them into equipment, or resell them drop, isn't that..."

The corners of Guta's mouth twitched slightly, apparently understanding the meaning behind Weiwei's words, and feeling tired, he supported his forehead and said, "It has to be you, Weiwei."
