Monster Hunter: This Fire Dragon has characteristics

Chapter 148: Battle of the Old Enemies! (5k)

Almost at the same time, Yaji also realized something was wrong and hurriedly flew into the sky.

But this is not a fair competition, but a battle of life and death in the wild nature.

It's not for food or territory, it's simply because of the inherent hostility between the Thousand Blade Dragon and the Fire Dragon.

This situation commonly occurs between Fire Dragon, Lightning Dragon and Thousand Blade Dragon. Among the three, as long as two of them meet, they will attack each other without any reason, and will not stop until one of them is defeated or even dies.

This is also the reason why the Fire Dragon has so many opponents that share the same ecological niche, territory and ecological habits, but only the Thousand Blade Dragon, the Electric Dragon and the Sea Dragon among the Sea Dragon species can be called the Fire Dragon's enemy by the guild.

Without any command, two battle-hardened Thousand Blade Dragons immediately flew towards Yaji below. The Thousand Blade Dragons had sufficient experience in bullying female fire dragons and knew very well how to better target a female fire dragon.

What's more, they have been in the New World for so long, and they have undergone transformation themselves. They know very well what the metallic scales on Luo Yun and Yaji represent.

What's more, the male and female fire dragons cooperated with each other tacitly. Although they believed that they had no chance of losing in a three-on-two situation, in order to win more easily, they decided to defeat Luo Yun and Yaji separately.

On the other hand, this also shows their confidence in the strength of their leader, the ferocious Thousand Blade Dragon.

Luo Yun saw the intention of the battle-hardened Thousand Blade Dragon and immediately wanted to intercept it in order to reunite with Yaji. However, as soon as he made a move, the dragon's speed was so fast that it cut through the air, leaving only phantom blade scales.

Flames rose from Luo Yun's entire body, and his scorched body rapidly strengthened its own scales. As he flapped his wings, he created wind pressure in an attempt to block the attacking blade scales.

The blade scales of the Thousand Blade Dragon look large and seem to be very heavy, but in fact they are extremely light and thin, and can even float down with the air flow. It is precisely because of these light scales that the Thousand Blade Dragon's seemingly huge body does not feel much burden.

Unfortunately, Luo Yun still underestimated the strength of the Thousand Blade Dragon Leader. These bronze blade scales were extremely sharp, with a hint of black mist. After breaking through the wind pressure, the remaining force also left white marks on Luo Yun's scales.

Luo Yun roared, and hot flames leaked from the corners of his mouth. The Thousand Blade Dragon Leader did not show any weakness and let out a shrill scream like a rooster, flapping his wings and sending gusts of air whistling.

Riding on the strong wind, the figure of the Thousand Blade Dragon leader was incredibly fast. He rushed in front of Luo Yun almost in the blink of an eye. The pair of toe-toed feet, which were different from those of a fire dragon, seemed to tear the sky apart, and it tore towards Luo Yun mercilessly with the black mist.

Luo Yun turned around and avoided the attack with his flaming tail, then appeared above the Thousand Blade Dragon leader with his body spinning, like a rapidly spinning fireball. The huge thorns on his wings were like a row of sharp daggers, which used the power of rotation to viciously pierce the Thousand Blade Dragon's head.

This counterattack could be said to be extremely extreme and rapid. If it were an ordinary creature, it would have basically hit the target. However, the Thousand Blade Dragon Leader was able to react and used the airflow caused by Luo Yun's rotation to create a rotation arc for himself.

The blade on the head that was originally retracted suddenly bounced up.

"clang!"

When the thorns collided with the blade corners, there was actually a sound similar to that of metal collision. The sharp sound even created a visible sound wave that spread in all directions.

If an ordinary hunter were in the sound waves at this time and did not have the magical "earplugs", he would probably cover his ears and even feel nauseous and vomit because of the high-frequency sound.

Luo Yun was very surprised by the result of this attack.

Luo Yun didn't expect that this guy could actually react, and not only did he react, but he could even launch a counterattack.

In addition, the Thousand Blade Dragon is not a power-type player. Don't forget that Luo Yun is currently in the third stage of development as a fire dragon. With the blessing of his strongman characteristics, he can even withstand the struggle of the Triceratops, overturn it, or even grab it for a distance.

The wings are the most powerful part of a fire dragon. With the added force from the rotation, this attack can normally repel a flying dragon, and a weaker one can even be shot down from the air directly.

But this Thousand Blade Dragon actually blocked the attack simply by rotating in a certain arc.

Is this the increase brought about by the double transformation of becoming more ferocious and more battle-hardened?

Little did he know that, just like Luo Yun’s thoughts at this moment, the Thousand Blade Dragon Leader did not expect this result.

The sharp pain from the blade horn, as if it was about to break, affected the nerves of the Thousand Blade Dragon. During this brief collision, it could no longer sense its own organs connected to the blade horn. Along with the shrill buzzing sound, the brain of the Thousand Blade Dragon leader was in a trance.

That's the edge of my own blade!
In the Old World, it could even easily cut off the bony blade wings of the Swift Dragon's forelimbs, take the blow of the Dragon Slayer, and even chop a gap in the sharpened tail of the Dragon Slayer's blade.

In its imagination, after Luo Yun's thorns collided with its blade corners, Luo Yun's thorns should be easily cut off, and it could also swing down and seriously injure the opponent with one blow.

"Miscalculation!"

In a daze, this was the only thought in the Thousand Blade Dragon Leader's mind.

The next moment, the familiar and terrifying feeling of muscle tearing came all over its body, and a large amount of black aura hidden in the flesh and blood frantically plundered the vitality that the Thousand Blade Dragon Leader had worked hard to recover since coming to the New World.

"Do not!!"

A large amount of vitality was instantly transformed into unknown energy, which deprived the Thousand Blade Dragon Leader of his sanity and allowed the severely damaged blade horns to barely return to normal.

Luo Yun was unaware of all this. In his eyes, he only saw that the Thousand Blade Dragon Leader's body, which had been tilted and uncontrollable, suddenly returned to normal. Almost the next moment after the collision, its counterattack followed.

Fortunately, Luo Yun also reacted with the help of his mind's eye characteristics. A large amount of flammable liquid was ignited, and he pounced towards the Thousand Blade Dragon leader with the force generated by the flapping of his wings.

Seen from a distance, this large amount of sparks gathered into a stream of flames, just like Luo Yun's wings suddenly extended out, all spreading over the Thousand Blade Dragon Leader.

In an instant, the Thousand Blade Dragon leader was engulfed by orange-red flames and turned into the second "Fire Dragon".

The attack was successful. Luo Yun, who originally wanted to take advantage of this unexpected attack to gain an advantage and launch a new attack, was startled. The thorns tilted rapidly and scratched the blade corner of the Thousand Blade Dragon Leader. While making a harsh friction sound, his body flipped backwards, using his wings to protect his head, and his whole body curled up into a ball and fell.

The next second, the scales on the Thousand Blade Dragon Leader's body exploded instantly, like a swelling pine cone. In his crazy scarlet eyes, a large number of lightweight blade scales shot out in all directions at 360 degrees without blind spots.

Accompanied by a piercing roar, carrying Luo Yun's flames, it flew a distance and then exploded, causing the already dense blade scales to shatter again, completely turning the area around it into a field of broken blades.

Luo Yun felt a stabbing pain all over his body and the outside of his wings. He knew very well that this was the result of the surface scales being scratched by the blade scale fragments, but Luo Yun didn't care. As his body became stronger after entering the growth period, his regenerative ability was also enhanced.

Although it has not been tested, according to the description on the panel, his regeneration ability is three times that of a male fire dragon of this level, and this is a permanent state, and this effect exists even in combat.

Therefore, with his powerful vitality, which far exceeds that of an ordinary male fire dragon, injuries of this degree can be completely healed in five minutes at most, and will not even affect his battle.

The airflow driven by these blade scales even directly formed an air explosion, which caused a terrifying impact like a fragmentation grenade, and even suppressed the flames burning on Luo Yun's body for a time.

Suddenly, thanks to the enhanced senses brought by the mind's eye, although he didn't see it, he was able to sense the rapid approach of the Thousand Blade Dragon Leader through the perception of the airflow through his body.

Without any hesitation, a large amount of flammable liquid quickly seeped out from the outside of the body. After determining the current position of the Thousand Blade Dragon Leader, it found a very critical moment and detonated it with a loud bang.

"Fragmentation grenade, right? Then how will you deal with my liquid bomb?"

An even louder explosion sounded in the air. At this moment, the Thousand Blade Dragon leader had already approached, and when the claws on the top of its wings were about to grab the falling Luo Yun, a scorching impact came towards it, causing a gorgeous explosion to it that was unprepared.

The temperature in the air began to rise with the heat wave after the explosion. The battlefield, which was originally a little cold, now had a burning feeling as if it were summer.

In the sky, a huge orange-red fireball spread. Looking down from a higher place, the clouds in the sky were blown into a huge hole by the impact of the attack. Then the sand on the ground was also hit by the strong wind, and circles of sand waves were raised with the exploding fireball as the center.

Even though it was an air explosion, it still slightly changed the battlefield environment. The battle-hardened Thousand Blade Dragon, who used to rely on air currents to fight, was caught off guard by this exaggerated air wave.

Originally, they had suppressed Yaji through tacit cooperation, but the air wave affected Yaji and gave her the opportunity. She risked her injured wings and forcefully knocked away one of the battle-hardened Thousand Blade Dragons, and successfully took off.

Although the female fire dragon's flying ability is not as good as that of the Thousand Blade Dragon, after taking off, Yaji's battlefield will not be suppressed on that piece of ground.

Overall, the next battle will be much easier, at least we can hold out until Luo Yun's support.

Little did they know that the two battle-hardened Thousand Blade Dragons thought the same.

The creatures' instincts made them realize from the beginning that Luo Yun's strength was not something they could deal with. Even if it was two against one, they were no match for him. They were not on the same level.

That's why he took the initiative to take on the battle with Yaji, wanting to deal with the female fire dragon Yaji as soon as possible and prevent the female fire dragon from affecting the battle with the Thousand Blade Dragon leader.

But what they didn't expect was that Yaji's strength was beyond their imagination. The one they thought was a soft persimmon turned out to be a tough nut to crack.

Although they can still survive by paying the price, their tribe is currently in the process of migrating due to food shortage. If they suffer unexpected injuries due to the battle with Aji, they will most likely be abandoned by the tribe.

This is very difficult to accept for the Thousand Blade Dragon, which has a very high ethnic group nature.

Therefore, Yaji was able to withstand the attacks of two battle-hardened Thousand Blade Dragons even when there was no room for battle and she was even being cut off.

It can be said that the battle between Luo Yun and the Thousand Blade Dragon Leader can already determine the outcome of this battle.

Therefore, during the battle, Aji and these two battle-hardened Thousand Blade Dragons will also pay attention to the situation in the sky.

In the smoke and dust after the explosion, Luo Yun was the first to fall out. After quickly spreading his wings to stabilize his body in the strong wind, he did not stop at all and exhaled a breath of fire, which dispersed the blade scales that were rushing towards him and pierced through the smoke and dust.

The Thousand Blade Dragon leader flew up and down, and gusts of air followed its broom-like blade tail, constantly changing wind direction. With the help of the air flow, it performed one incredible and difficult move after another in the air.

While avoiding the breath of fire, he actually followed the breath of fire and quickly approached Luo Yun.

Even though Luo Yun's acceleration characteristics had already brought him a considerable speed at this time, this completely unreasonably ferocious and battle-hardened Thousand Blade Dragon, after becoming completely excited and greatly activating its muscles, showed a speed that was no less than his.

The damage caused by the explosion just now was indeed considerable. Even though the Thousand Blade Dragon Leader's newly reborn blade scales helped it block most of the damage in the explosion, its body still suffered a considerable impact after it flew away.

A large area of ​​the chest was cracked, and even the regeneration speed of the blade scales in that area was affected.

But so what?

This injury not only did not make the irrational Thousand Blade Dragon Leader feel timid, but instead made him completely excited. The ferocious black mist that was wrapped around his body kept surging, and waves of vitality mixed with life energy were constantly extracted, turning into special energy to strengthen it again.

These special energies are like large amounts of stimulants, allowing it to break through the self-limitations of the physical body and begin to overload the body's strength.

The pain in its joints and muscles made it more and more manic, but the unknown substance in the black fog was difficult to stop once it started, and it constantly consumed its vitality, which was used to repair the damage to various parts of the Thousand Blade Dragon Leader's body after it went berserk.

Seeing that his breath could not do anything to the Thousand Blade Dragon Leader, as the opponent was getting closer and closer, Luo Yun stopped breathing in time, turned around, spread his wings and flew high, continuously spitting fireballs like a fire Gatling gun, blocking the movement route of the Thousand Blade Dragon Leader.

Find ways to climb.

In battles between flying dragon species, the one at a higher altitude often has a greater advantage.

Obviously, out of instinct, the Thousand Blade Dragon Leader also had the same intention. He threw out a string of blade scales without showing any weakness. The fireball was cut by the blade scales, which in turn suppressed Luo Yun's climbing speed.

This scene made Luo Yun a little unbelievable.

Although the blade scales of the Thousand Blade Dragon are extremely sharp, that does not change the fact that they are lightweight scales.

Not to mention that the high temperature of the fireball itself can affect the airflow, thereby affecting the power of the blade scales. The impact caused by the fireball being cut and exploded by the blade scales will definitely offset the power of the blade scales.

But the fact is that not only was his fireball cut in half, it also failed to cause much impact on the blade scales.

"what's the situation?"

Something is wrong, something is very wrong!!

Before, I could weaken the power of the blade scales just by the wind pressure created by flapping my wings, but why can't I do that after switching to fireball?

Avoiding the attacks of the blade scales with great difficulty, Luo Yun's figure, which was burning with orange-red flames, kept changing directions in the air. The flexibility brought by the four wing bones, coupled with the insight after the strengthening of the mind and the high temperature formed by the flaming body affecting the airflow, although Luo Yun looked a little embarrassed at this time, he avoided the attacks of the blade scales very flexibly and even had time to observe.

Soon, with a seemingly thrilling move of turning his head to dodge, Luo Yun finally discovered the clue.

The tail ends of these blade scales actually have traces of black lines, which are the same substance as the ferocious mist on the body of the Thousand Blade Dragon Leader, and Luo Yun sensed the dragon-like aura from it.

The ferocious mist actually has dragon attributes? ! !

Luo Yun had witnessed the power of the dragon attribute. When he was besieging the Tyrannosaurus Rex, he was deeply impressed by the dragon sealing power that could affect the flow of energy in his body just by sticking to it.

Although the dragon attribute of the Fierce Claw Dragon was not able to show its due charm under the suppression of the Tyrannosaurus Rex, it is undeniable that every monster with dragon attributes is extremely powerful!
But what Luo Yun couldn't understand was that, except for the ancient dragons who could perfectly control the dragon energy, other creatures basically had to consume a lot of money to use the dragon energy.

This Thousand Blade Dragon is still in extremely high condition after fighting until now, as if it has unlimited physical strength.

There must be substances other than dragon attributes in that black fog!
"Which exaggerated ancient dragon did this thing come from?!"

Luo Yun was indignant. Only an ancient dragon could create such an exaggerated thing. Moreover, judging from the fact that the side effects were not as severe as those of the mad dragon virus, it was likely that the ancient dragon that created the ferocious black mist was not an ordinary ancient dragon. It was even possible that it was an ancient dragon of the unlocked level.

There is a price to pay for using the power released by the ancient dragon. Luo Yun is not sure what the price is, but at this moment, the Thousand Blade Dragon leader, who has entered a state of frenzy, already possesses combat power comparable to his.

In a sense, their strength at the moment belongs to the same level, that is, they stand at the top of the battle-hardened monsters in the same ecological niche, but they are weaker than the police like the Golden Lion and the Explosive Dragon.

Although the ferocious state is strong, it is still much weaker than overcoming the mad dragon virus, paying a huge price to fully stimulate the body's potential, and reaching the limit.

The extreme Thousand Blade Dragon is as dangerous as an ancient dragon.

Despite his ferocity and having just become the battle-hardened leader of the Thousand Blade Dragons, he is not yet strong enough to break through his ecological niche, and the same is true for Luo Yun.

As the strength of the two sides was not completely different, the battle turned from the initial desire to deal a fatal blow to each other to a tug-of-war.

The Thousand Blade Dragon Leader has the ability to become ferocious to gain extremely strong physical strength, while Luo Yun also has the ability to regenerate, and the mutual coordination between their characteristics can greatly reduce the ability to lose energy.

The two sides continued to fly and collide in the sky above the wasteland.

Flames, scales, blood and flesh became the main colors of this battlefield~
This long battle also attracted the attention of a certain creature.
