Monster Hunter: This Fire Dragon has characteristics

Chapter 114: Expelling the Old World Fire Dragon
To put it simply, the hunting ground of the ancient tree fire dragon is an open area with a wide view, abundant water and grass, and often visited by groups of herbivorous dragons.

Because of the special nature of the ancient tree fire dragon, unlike other monsters which have hunting grounds or territories, most of the ancient tree fire dragon's hunting grounds are public hunting grounds. However, because the fire dragons often visit, over time, not many monsters with lower ecological niches will go there.

What's more, there are so many hunting grounds in the ancient tree forest, many of which are surrounded by trees, so there is no need to compete with the fire dragon.

But now, the public hunting grounds in the south have been marked as territory and occupied by outsiders, which undoubtedly squeezes the living space of the ancient tree fire dragons.

Of course, due to the relatively weak sense of ethnicity, this reason alone is not enough to summon all the fire dragons.

After all, the hunting ground is there, and those foreign fire dragons can naturally occupy it. If you cannot break through to that hunting ground to hunt, it is because you are not strong enough.

Even if you die there, other than your partner being sad, no other fire dragons will even pay any attention.

But now, the cat was attacked while out hunting with the fire dragon protecting it, which was a bit uncomfortable.

Now, cats are regarded as public property by the fire dragons in the ancient trees, just like those public hunting grounds.

Attacking Detel of the ancient tree fire dragon clan was like invading everyone's shared territory, which was somewhat unacceptable.

These two things alone would not move the fire dragons.

Survival of the fittest, this is something engraved in the bones of fire dragons. Otherwise, it would not be like now. If fire dragons want to live on ancient trees, they need to fight to gain the right to live there.

Fire dragons born on the ancient tree will still be expelled from the ancient tree after they have the ability to survive independently. These cruel rules not only guarantee the number of fire dragons on the ancient tree, but also guarantee the fighting power of fire dragons. Isn't this a kind of selection?

But now, these two things happened together, and the meaning was different.

Invading territory and compressing living space are serious provocations to any living creature.

That’s why this grand call was held.

According to the battle-hardened fire dragons, the situation this time is just like when the Thunder Wolf Dragon tribe was driven to the ancient tree area by the Mist Dragon. It is a struggle between tribes for territories.

Whether it is from the perspective of regaining the hunting grounds or competing for territory, they should act collectively to drive those outsiders out of the ancient tree area.

Those migrating fire dragons were not part of the ecological chain of the ancient tree forest. In addition, the ancient tree fire dragons' production environment was first invaded, so they passively counterattacked, which was also within the rules.

Therefore, as soon as this proposal came out, the male fire dragons roared one after another, led by Luo Yun and the other six battle-hardened male fire dragons, spread their wings and flew into the sky, flying towards the hunting grounds south of the ancient tree area.

At this time, on the ancient tree, except for the female fire dragon that did not hatch cubs this year and chose to fly out of the nest and circled over the ancient tree for patrol, the other female fire dragons quickly returned to the nest and carefully guarded the cubs.

The cats who noticed the unusual movement were a little confused, but when they saw the alert looks of the female fire dragons who stayed behind, they blew their horns and guarded every corner of the ancient tree fully armed.

"What happened?"

The Grand Commander stood on a thick branch, looking at the dozens of male fire dragons going away, and at the pig bone that suddenly became alert, feeling a little excited.

This is another event that has never been recorded by the Hunter Guild!
"I don't know, meow, but something big must have happened that requires the fire dragons to work together to solve it, meow." Tonkotsu had never seen such a scene before.

During the Xialong incident that year, the fire dragons went to help on their own initiative and did not set out together after discussion like they do now.

The captain's eyes were burning with anger, and he seemed to be ready to make some moves.

"I really want to go and take a look." Unfortunately, it's just a thought.

The ancient tree is a restricted area for pterosaurs, and no fire dragon would be willing to carry the captain, even if it was impossible to fly with a basket like Luo Yun did before.

The group of male fire dragons traveled in a mighty force, flying in the sky like a vast black mass. The power they exuded made the creatures in the forest below hide in unison.

Even the forest thugs, including the hot-tempered Barbarian Dragon, looked up and saw this scene, and quickly dived into the woods, waiting until the group of fire dragons flew away before coming out again.

One fire dragon is not scary, but two are okay.

However, when an entire group of the most elite male fire dragons in the New World travel together, even some weaker ancient dragons will not easily clash.

Without using the power of natural disasters, so many male fire dragons would suffer serious injuries even if they won.

Feeling the air flowing around them, the male fire dragons shuttled through the clouds without any intention of concealing their existence, and arrived at the first hunting ground in broad daylight.

Without any command, several male fire dragons leaned down and attacked the Old World fire dragons they saw without saying a word.

There were no sneak attacks, no bullying of the minority by the majority, and even no use of the minority against the majority.

Some male fire dragons have to face a pair of Old World fire dragon couples at the same time.

However, as an ancient tree male fire dragon that grew up in fighting, its combat experience and physique are incomparable to other male fire dragons roaming outside the ancient tree.

If it were put into the game, every ancient tree dragon would be of the size of a large golden crown (largest size).

In the game, the size of the monsters doesn't mean much, and there aren't many changes in the numbers.

But in reality, body size is the best reference for ordinary monsters. Body size reflects the strength of the monster to a certain extent. Therefore, it is not wrong for the Poison Bird to judge the opponent's strength by body size most of the time.

In addition, the fire dragons of the Old World are missing a wing bone, and their flying ability is weaker than that of the fire dragons of the New World.

Without the advantage of combat experience and with their physical strength suppressed, the fire dragons of the Old Continent could not gain the slightest advantage even if they were outnumbered.

The group of fire dragons staying in the air watched the battle below for a while. After making sure that the number of male fire dragons left behind was sufficient to drive out the group of fire dragons from the Old World in this hunting ground, they continued to fly to the next hunting ground.

In this way, they passed through three hunting grounds in a row and finally arrived at the largest hunting ground in the south of the ancient tree area. Including Luo Yun, there were only eleven male fire dragons left.

In this hunting ground, Luo Yun finally saw the guy who attacked him that day.

Its body was covered in scorching flames, and the patterns on its wings glowed with golden light. It was just flying quietly in the air, and the temperature around it was rising rapidly.

When the Hao Fire Dragon appeared in front of the ancient tree fire dragons, their eyes fell on Luo Yun almost immediately.

If Luo Yun's wing bones were not the same as theirs, with four instead of three, they would have thought that there was some relationship between Luo Yun and the other party.

At this time, after hearing the noise, some huge fire dragons also flew out from the forest around the hunting ground. They were all powerful individuals among this group of migrating fire dragons.

The two groups of fire dragons stood facing each other in the air, as if they were choosing their opponents.
