hunt and eat

Chapter 673 The golden lions gathered together, the first species [red lotus] appeared

"This kind of thing doesn't seem like something a monster would do..."

Nia frowned, and said somewhat falteringly.

The subtext is that it was done by the hunters.

But it is difficult to explain why the black eclipse dragon in front of him is still alive... From the hunter's point of view, even if it is an autopsy for research, it is not impossible not to deal with the remaining black eclipse dragon, even if Knowing that the other party will not live long.

You must know that even the larvae of the black dragon can spread the mad dragon disease. Before it really dies, who knows how far it can spread the mad dragon virus.

From the girl's understanding, the species of black erosion dragon is fundamentally the source of the plague of walking, as if its existence itself is to spread the virus.

No, considering the special parasitic reproduction characteristics of the mad dragon virus, perhaps it should be called reproduction.

Mie Jin looked at Nia's ugly face, and said in a low voice, "It may also be made by monsters, the smarter ones."

After finishing speaking, she hurriedly added: "Didn't Guta say that the extreme monsters at the natural disaster level have smart heads, maybe they did it."

"I can't rule out this possibility. After all, there are too many special individuals hovering in the Sky Mountain area. If there are really one or two monsters with research spirit, it's not a particularly strange thing."

"Of course, it's just a guess at the moment. It's also possible that other hunters didn't deal with it for some reason."

"Go ahead, it's getting late, we have to find a suitable camping point."

Guta clapped his hands, did not jump to conclusions, and then greeted everyone to leave.

"Oh, I almost forgot, there's you..."

As soon as the front foot moved forward, the ancient tower stopped on the back foot, and looked at the dying black dragon larva beside it.

After struggling for a few minutes, it, which was already deficient in nature, was already in a state of hypoxia panting, as if hovering on the edge of death and life at any time.

"What a sad fellow, what is the purpose of your birth?"

Gently resting a palm on the neck of the black erosion dragon, Guta said in an extremely soft voice.

In the next moment, with the sudden igniting of black and white flames, a layer of chaotic sea of ​​flames wrapped the whole body of the black erosion dragon like a curtain woven with light gauze.

There was no howling of pain, no cursing of resentment, except for the slight crackling sound like firewood burning, the forest at this moment was silent.

"Let's go." The flames gradually dissipated, just like the figures of several people gradually leaving.

……

In a cave somewhere under the restricted area of ​​Sky Mountain

A huge monster whose body is covered with a black carapace like volcanic limestone and looks like a golden lion is looking down at something in its huge palm in an almost human sitting posture.

The huge striped horns bend and extend forward like a demon, with red sparks flashing from time to time.

If Guta was here at this time, he would probably be able to recognize the opponent's real name at a glance.

【First species】Golden Lion——【Red Lotus Lion】

In the guild files, this is one of the very few dangerous monsters marked with the [Highest Avoidance] command.

It is also a terrifying individual that only the great elders of the guild and the peak natural disasters at the level of the three powerhouses are eligible to try hunting.

The so-called [primary species] refers to those extremely special individuals that have maintained the form of the ancient times and have continued to the present without any changes.

As for whether those monsters are really ancient individuals that have survived since ancient times, even the most in-depth research on dragonman scholars cannot give a definite answer.

The Primordial Era is too far away, neither the history of human beings nor the dragon people can be traced back to that period. Therefore, for those [primary species] individuals, in addition to the research on ecology and species evolution, people can't do it in other aspects. claim to know nothing.

But even so, there is only one thing that is certain.

That is, no matter which race it is, its [Original Species] must have a terrifying combat power that suppresses almost all species. Converted to the current calculation method of the Hunter Guild, the weakest is the peak natural disaster at the level of the three powerhouses. As for the best among them Those who, in terms of combat ability alone, are even comparable to the Forbidden King.

As the [first species] that is suspected to be the origin of the golden lion, the red lotus lion has almost no body hair on its body, and there are three symmetrical protrusions on the back, which are like raised rocks. The tail is even thicker and flatter. There seems to be no part of the forelimbs that is the same as that of the golden lion.

【came back? 】

Hearing the sound of heavy objects falling to the ground gradually, Honglian Lion roared without raising his head.

He threw his kinsman covered in scars on the ground, a golden lion with golden hair extending to the lower body, and a crimson fighting spirit faintly wrapped around his arms. With only one remaining blue eye Look at the red lotus lion in the deepest part of the cave.

[Kaletta is dead, and it was a human hunter who did it. 】

Communicating in a language that seemed to be an animal language but was subtly different, the golden lion with a faint red light on its arms looked strangely at the dilapidated book in the palm of the red lotus lion, which matched the huge palm. It is better than a [miniature] animal skin book.

[Ancestor, are you still looking at human things? 】

[I remember, it was something called a "book". 】

Nodding slightly, the red lotus lion closed the animal skin book with its thick knuckles, and carefully stuffed it into a rag bag bound by a belt-shaped vine on one side of his waist.

After doing this, it raised its huge head slightly, and looked down critically at the young golden lion, who was struggling to get up from the ground, and his body was scorched and burned.

[Tell me, what happened? 】

After a roar of suppressed anger, the red lotus lion propped up his chin thoughtfully with the palm wrapped in the scorched black stone.

[It's really interesting that a new hunter who has never seen before can solve Kaleta in such a short period of time. 】

[It's a pity for Carrieta, who can bear the hatred and join forces with that broken dragon temporarily... I haven't seen such a smart junior in nearly a hundred years. 】

【It's a pity that he is still dead...】

Amidst the low groans, more and more golden lions gradually poured in from outside the cave in twos and threes as if they had received some kind of call.

It's an almost unbelievable scene.

You must know that the golden lion, like most powerful monsters, should not have the habit of living in groups at all. It has always been solitary, and has a violent temperament.

I don't know what the reason is, but a large number of them are concentrated here.

【Ancestor, the hunter who killed Calheta is still nearby, heading towards Sky Mountain, we can...】

The golden lion who was covered in burns roared hastily, and couldn't help but slammed into the ground, obviously emotionally fluctuating extremely violently.

However, in the next second, a fiery red coercion that was almost visible to the naked eye swept out from the depths of the cave like a tsunami.

The moment he felt that aura, whether it was the huge golden lion with the crimson fighting spirit or other individuals, they lowered their heads unconsciously.

What's more, they even retreated slowly.

【I told you before, you should call her mother】

The red lotus lion's amber eyes seemed to be burning like flames, and it glanced at the trembling golden lion below without any emotion, and its face was full of a flat expression that was completely different from the horror.

[In addition, before the reincarnation dragon is born, I don't want to see any of you appearing near Sky Mountain]

[Clan members who acted without authorization, I will send you down with my own hands, do you understand? 】

Inside the cave, it was as silent as a pool of stagnant water, and none of the golden lions raised the slightest doubt, or even raised their heads to look at the king of golden lions.

Impassively, he swept around the nearly twenty fellows of different sizes in the cave. The red lotus lion withdrew its aura little by little, and sat back on the stone platform polished into the shape of a round stool behind it with some boredom.

【Very well, let’s all go back and stand by】

【Also, Chi Hong, go and bury Prieta's body】

The red lotus lion pointed to a corner of the cave, where a disembowelled golden lion corpse was located, and then looked down at the tallest and tallest golden lion with red fighting spirit wrapped around its arms.

[The guy in it is not the dragon we were waiting for, so it can be said that it died in vain. 】

Nodding his head, a look of regret also flashed across the face of the golden lion called [Red Red]. He picked up the broken body of the golden lion and walked out of the cave without looking back.
