Monster Hunter: This Fire Dragon has characteristics

Chapter 418 The Ability of the Skeleton Dragon

The battle here was so massive that it caused some changes in the astronomical phenomena in the entire jungle swamp area. Sometimes it was hot, sometimes there were thunder and lightning, and occasionally there would be red lasers that frightened creatures at the mere sight of them, which would blast away the thick clouds and scare the monsters away from the area.

On the other side, the hunter team that escaped from the skeleton area blew the dragon-calling flute several times in a row, and finally a pair of ancient tree fire dragons flew over from a distance, but they only circled over the jungle swamp and did not dare to overstep the boundaries at all.

The hunter team could also understand the behavior of the fire dragon couple. After all, there were two ancient dragons behind them fighting against an unknown monster together. It was normal for them to be afraid.

There was no other choice but to blow the dragon-calling flute to guide the fire dragon couple to their location while quickly leaving the place.

There are many creatures in the swamp. Although it is not as good as the best ancient tree area in the ancient tree forest, compared with other areas deep in the ancient tree forest, there are also many monsters living here because of its abundant water sources and diverse creatures. The chaos caused by the battle of the three ancient dragons that spread from the basin to the jungle swamp greatly affected the retreat speed of the hunter team.

Fortunately, after advancing for a distance with difficulty and getting away from the pressure of the ancient dragon, the fire dragon couple who came to support began to lower their altitude. After confirming the authenticity of the dragon-summoning flute, they took the initiative to protect the hunter team. Relying on the deterrent power of their high ecological niche and the advantage of aerial vision, they successfully led the hunter team away from the chaotic area after a lot of hurrying.

Watching the ancient male fire dragon swallow the used dragon-summoning flute into its mouth and fly away with the female fire dragon, the hunters in the safe area built a temporary tent. After everything was done, they began to summarize their memories. Soon, a simple sketch of a monster that had not yet revealed its true form but was very iconic was pieced together on the cardboard.

"What bad luck! I thought it would be a simple investigation mission." The sword master took the whetstone and began to sharpen the sword in the light of the fire.

A group of double sword users looked eagerly at the whetstone in the hands of the katana user. It was indeed pleasant to 'rub the back', but the damage to the weapon was enough to make him feel distressed. The whetstone he carried was also used up in the battles along the way, so he directly targeted the whetstone of his teammate.

The captain, the hunting horn user, stirred the fire, not bothering to pay attention to the great swordsman who was humming a song while timing the barbecue, even after decades, he still looked like a novice. He sighed, "This is really the New World. Ancient dragons that are rarely seen in the Old World and usually only exist in myths can be seen here every few years. This frequency is enough to write a storybook!"

“Thump, thump! thump!”

With the final word of "over", the greatsword master skillfully lifted the skewers of meat, smelled the large pieces of meat that were crispy on the outside and tender on the inside, sprinkled some seasoning on them and distributed them to everyone.

"Then write it. At our age, it's time for us to retire. If you hadn't dragged us to sneak to the ancient tree a few years ago, we would have returned to the Old World long ago. We are still wasting resources here now."

After the Great Sword Master finished speaking, everyone present fell silent. They came here with the Second Phase Group, and now they are all "old guys" in their fifties. They are not as talented as the Grand Leader. Apart from hunting experience, they really have no advantages over the Third Phase Group who are in their prime and the Fourth Phase Group hunters who are still immature.

"Yes, it's time to retire. After taking this information back to the Ancient Tree, we will apply to return to the Old World. I'm sure you've all heard about the Fifth Group. They are a hunting group composed of elite hunters. Their arrival will definitely bring a huge burden to logistics. We old guys who are almost useless should stop causing trouble here."

"Captain, I'm glad you figured it out. It's just a pity that you couldn't solve the secret of Ancient Dragon Ferry yourself."

Everyone sighed.

There are many hunters who have the same idea as this hunting team. Who can be willing to leave this place where they have fought for their lives for decades with regret?

However, although the dream could not be realized, it could be passed on. In this way, perhaps these old hunters who have dedicated their lives to the secret can get the news that the secret has been solved in their lifetime and not regret it for the rest of their lives! More than half a month later, the dusty hunter team finally returned successfully under the escort of several fire dragons. However, the great swordsman who was still like a novice at his age, in a big melee, protected his seriously injured teammate and held on until the ancient tree fire dragons came to support him. One leg was left on the battlefield.

The battle areas between the skeleton dragon and the two ancient dragons were too coincidental. As a result of the chain reaction, a large number of monsters started a series of fierce battles to the west of the ancient tree area.

If it weren't for the Thousand Blade Dragons who had completely adapted to the environment of the New World and occupied a large area in the west with Luo Yun's tacit approval, their existence would have blocked the large-scale monster tribes that wanted to migrate outside the ancient tree area. I'm afraid this commotion would have affected the ecological balance of the ancient tree area.

A bloody stick figure cardboard was placed on the table at the ancient tree research base as the mission was completed.

Since the Ancient Tree Research Base did not deliberately conceal it, the news quickly spread to Luo Yun.

When Luo Yun first heard about the two-headed dragon, he was a little surprised. He didn't expect that such a magical creature would appear in the New World.

But when the huge stick figure drawing and the description of the monster's characteristics were placed in front of Luo Yun, he finally understood what kind of monster it was.

The necromancers of the ancient dragon world use a very unique method to "resurrect" the dead to fight for them.

If you didn't know its true identity, you would probably really think it was a creature from some advanced magical world.

But in fact, this is just a special kind of mimicry.

The so-called "resurrection" is nothing more than the skeleton dragon using its tentacles that resemble dragon heads, sticking the monster corpses on them through a special mucus, and then using its own energy to replicate the fighting style of the original owner of the skeleton through mimicry.

Because his energy level is so high, the replicated attack can naturally surpass the original one.

Of course, the original owner here refers to the existence that is not an ancient dragon.

As for the ancient dragons, they all play with life energy. Simply speaking from the quality of energy, there is not too huge a difference. Even if the skeleton dragon obtains the skeleton of the ancient dragon, except that the bone armor is harder, it cannot surpass the level of the original owner.

In addition, there is no way for the super giant ancient dragon to be "resurrected", because its body length is only 36 meters.

The reason why the Skeleton Dragon has such a high ecological niche, in addition to its exaggerated dragon-attribute energy, is that the mimicry of the Skeleton Dragon's tentacles can exert the combat power of an ancient dragon. Fighting with it is like fighting with a group of ancient dragons.

A normal unlocked ancient dragon would feel a lot of pressure when facing several ordinary ancient dragons at the same time. But as long as a skeleton dragon has enough skeletons of monsters with high ecological niches, before its body is completely injured, wouldn’t it be an endless army of ancient dragons?
In addition, his ultimate move "Genesis" is one of the best among the ancient dragons of the unlocking level. Even among the ancient dragons of the unlocking level, not many are willing to fight him in his dragon cemetery.
