Monster Hunter: This Fire Dragon has characteristics

Chapter 375 Scarlet 'Butterfly'

A few days after Luo Yun was blocked by Yaji from entering the depths of the nest, probably because the condition of the dragon egg had completely stabilized, Luo Yun was finally allowed to return to the nest.

But maybe dragons are just greedy. After Luo Yun returned to the nest, he felt uncomfortable when there was an egg between him and Yaji during their rest.

He tried several times to move the dragon egg out of the nest, but finally gave up the idea under Yaji's death gaze.

And on this day, the Chihuo Village, which had been under construction for several years, was finally completed. All the Detelers moved in, and cable car tracks extended outward from the Chihuo Village, connecting various areas of the ancient tree like a spider web.

And in this situation, female fire dragons flew over from the Big Ant Mound Wasteland. Faced with these ancient trees with obvious traces of human intervention, even some of the female fire dragons had been here last year and were still a little uncomfortable.

Some older female fire dragons flew into the obviously designed dragon nests in the middle and upper parts of the ancient tree.

It's just that due to the genetic differences now, their original partners are no longer interested in them. However, due to their improved IQ and some past memories, they did not try to drive them away, but allowed them to stay in the nest. Anyway, when the time comes, they will return to the big anthill wasteland.

There is no way. This scene is an unavoidable problem after the ancient tree fire dragon clan transformed.

In the lower layer of the ancient tree, the newly moved in fire dragons did not have this trouble. However, perhaps because of Luo Yun’s order, although the ancient tree fire dragon group no longer intercepted these young fire dragons from entering the ancient tree, this hierarchical order also caused a huge gap between the two sides.

Even the cats would not enter the lower levels of the ancient trees to serve these young fire dragons.

However, due to their instinct to obey the strong, these young fire dragons would not violate the rules set by Luo Yun, which allowed the trade between the ancient tree and the investigation team to remain unchanged.

But no matter what, this season is indeed the busiest time on the ancient tree, and basically most fire dragons are in a good mood.

But in such an atmosphere, a sick-looking female fire dragon suddenly let out a painful howl, and then her whole body twitched, her eyes gradually turned red, and the scales on some of her joints emitted a strange red light.

Faced with this strange situation, these young fire dragons did not have any extra feelings. They just thought that the female fire dragon might have some strange disease, so they just chose to stay away from her and let her roll there, trying to relieve their pain in this way.

It was just that the patrolling cat who happened to be passing by noticed something was wrong.

After all, they had experienced the Tianhui Dragon incident, so their vigilance was much stronger than these young fire dragons.

Therefore, the dragon-calling horn was blown immediately, and soon fire dragons from the ancient tree fire dragon group flew over.

But at this moment, perhaps because of the unique abundant energy in the ancient tree fire dragon, it attracted something in the gaps between the scales of the female fire dragon, and one by one, "butterflies" emitting scarlet light flew out from the scales of the female fire dragon.

Dozens of them gathered into a group and flew towards the ancient tree fire dragon at a rapid speed.

"Roar?"

Without any hesitation, the ancient tree fire dragon spewed out a breath of fire.

However, a surprising scene occurred. This red butterfly, which seemed to be easily killed, actually flew out of the flames safely.

The red light on their bodies seemed to be a unique energy, which could offset the energy in the flames just like the dragon energy.

The ancient tree fire dragon let out a low roar, flapped its wings, and quickly avoided the approach of the group of 'butterflies'. It instinctively sensed that something was wrong, and kept flapping its wings to disrupt the airflow, then spewed flames, trying to destroy the group of 'butterflies'.

However, these unknown butterflies were indeed special. They flew in the ever-increasing flames of the ancient tree fire dragon, and it took a long time to kill one or two of them. Such movements naturally could not be hidden from Luo Yun, who patrolled the territory on the ancient tree every day.

He swooped down directly in the direction of the fire. The fire dragons that were also patrolling their territory gave way one after another. Some bored ones even flew after Luo Yun.

When Luo Yun arrived, he found that some "butterflies" had quietly bypassed the ancient tree fire dragon's sight and were about to attach themselves to it.

"Roar!"

Accompanied by a loud dragon roar, Luo Yun flapped his wings quickly, and a bright red silver scale passed by the ancient tree fire dragon like a flying knife.

Cut those butterflies apart like a dense rain.

But the next second, these butterflies that were killed in large numbers by Luo Yun were like a group of jackals that smelled blood. They turned around fearlessly and flew towards Luo Yun in groups.

This thing looks very familiar to Luo Yun.

This is something more difficult to deal with than Tianhuilong's Crazy Dragon Virus.

Its name is: Gnawing insect!
This thing is actually less harmful than the Rasengan virus. After all, its way of spreading and its harmfulness are much milder than the Rasengan virus, which is almost certain to cause death after infection.

Just like the lemon-like black mist, this thing can allow the host to retain his sanity before death, stimulate potential, and enhance the host's strength.

It can be said that before the gnawing insect absorbs enough essence from the host, it and the host have a symbiotic relationship.

Of course, what I am referring to here is the small butterfly-like larva in front of us.

If it's the kind that gets infested with worms when mature, that's another matter.

The appearance of a mature gnawing worm will have nothing to do with "beauty". It will just be a scarlet sandworm with wings, which is very scary.

And the most exaggerated thing is that this thing and its 'master' are not like the Mad Dragon Virus which was created by the Tianhui Dragon. The relationship between the Gnawing Insect and the Mingyuan Dragon is actually a symbiotic relationship.

To put it simply, the gnawing worm is a special creature that coexists with the forbidden ancient dragon.

Even if the Underworld Dragon, as its symbiotic partner, dies, this thing can still choose another creature to coexist with.

Of course, the prerequisite is that the new symbiotic ancient dragon can withstand the various negative effects brought about by the toxicity of the gnawing insects, but at this point, Luo Yun has no intention of trying it at all.

After all, even the 'noble knight', the original Duke Silver Dragon, in his weak moment after the battle with the Abyss Dragon, and after being parasitized by gnawing insects, only lasted for a few decades before he completely degenerated.

Luo Yun didn't want to follow in his footsteps and be dubbed the 'Fallen King' in the future.

Therefore, when he saw these red gnawing insects flying towards him, Luo Yun did not say anything and directly used Jie Yan to deal with them.
