Monster Hunter: This Fire Dragon has characteristics

Chapter 429 Orders Given, Hunting Permit

The Grand Commander was a little puzzled by Luo Yun's behavior of fighting but not finishing the fight, especially when Luo Yun and his companions returned from the sky first with little Loren on the way back to the ancient tree. Without the pressure of the ancient dragon to lead the way, the Grand Commander finally saw the more chaotic ancient tree forest.

It can be said that nowadays, except for those extremely remote and rugged locations, the entire ancient tree forest is filled with a faint smell of blood at all times.

Especially in the lower layers of the ancient tree forest, those areas that never see sunlight but are connected to underground rivers, a large number of sea dragon monsters have emerged. No matter which ecological level the monsters are in, they are fighting almost every day.

Even the omnivorous fish in the river have grown fatter in such an environment.

The spreading smell of blood constantly stimulates the violent factors in the monsters. Many times, the fights between them are no longer for survival, but simply for the sake of killing!

It was at this time that a dark gas that could amplify the monster's inner brutality and squeeze the monster's physical strength and vitality began to emerge from the monster.

In the dragon cemetery, the skeleton dragon was silently digesting the large monster it had captured this time, while using its camouflaged tentacles to absorb the black gas filled with pure life energy that was floating in from afar.

The ferocious factor is a mutated dragon-attribute energy that is continuously refined by the skeleton dragon from countless corpses. It is an energy controlled by the skeleton dragon and is a special product used to absorb pure life energy remotely.

But the only pity is that this thing is not contagious and is very picky about its host, so it can only be a special means of plunder for the skeleton dragon.

Of course, it is an optional thing for the Skeleton Dragon, but for monsters below the Ancient Dragon level, it is a good thing that can make their combat effectiveness transcend the ecological niche. As long as a monster in a tribe can become a ferocious monster, it can lead the tribe to gain better territory and better survival resources in the fight.

In such an atmosphere, even the captain was exhausted when he returned to the ancient tree base. All the logistical resources on him were almost exhausted. However, the harvest was rich. A large number of materials that could not be obtained after regular hunting on weekdays were carried back by the captain in large bags, allowing some hunters who had been reduced to using only mineral weapons to barely update their equipment.

Gulu gulu!

After drinking several bowls of water and taking off his heavy protective gear, the commander did not take a rest. Instead, he immediately went to the top of the ancient tree to look for Luo Yun.

"Now even the ancient tree area has started to get chaotic. The source of this commotion must be that guy in the Dragon Cemetery!"

Looking at Luo Yun, although the Grand Commander was asking questions, his tone was very affirmative.

The commander was not just hurrying on his way back, he also took some time outside based on his experience, and finally deduced that the source of the disturbance was the skeleton dragon.

But he was very confused. Based on what the investigation team had known about Luo Yun over the years, Luo Yun was obviously an ancient dragon from the "Order" side. Even he could deduce this, so he didn't believe that Luo Yun wouldn't know it!
Since Luo Yun knew about this and had fought against the Skeleton Dragon together with Yaji, why did he come back with such a poor outcome?

You know, the ancient tree area is also in chaos now. When the commander was climbing the ancient tree, he found that many fire dragons living at the bottom of the ancient tree were licking their wounds in their nests.

As the king of ancient trees, how could Luo Yun remain indifferent?

"Roar!!"

"All of this is nature's choice! It is a part of the ecosystem that must go through! If the world wants to grow, this is the necessary sacrifice!!" Luo Yun did not give a clear answer directly, but the reasons he gave left the commander speechless.

As the maintainer of the ecosystem, hunters may occasionally make mistakes in judgment and choose the wrong targets, causing some monsters to be blamed for no reason!

But at least they attach great importance to ecological stability, which is also one of the required courses for those who want to become hunters.

If it weren't for Luo Yun's reason, according to the captain's idea, the most likely possibility is: if Luo Yun does not take action, he will notify the Star Stronghold, gather the hunters' strength, and find a way to attack the Skeleton Dragon, so as to stabilize the situation from the root.

But now, the 'Dragon of Order' said that this was the choice of nature and a necessary part of the ecology. He even restrained himself when his 'people' were harmed.

So, does the hunter really want to defeat the Skeleton Dragon?
Is this behavior maintaining the ecology or destroying it?
The commander-in-chief came with doubts and left with confusion.

He doesn’t know, he really doesn’t know!!
His years of hunting career taught him that when faced with such a situation, he only needed to find a way to defeat the culprit, and then the powerful ecological cycle ability would bring everything back on track.

But his trust in Luo Yun told him that everything was not that simple.

This is the situation of the entire ancient tree forest. His vision and experience are far inferior to those of Luo Yun, an ancient dragon.

Especially since the incidents of gnawing insects occurred a few years ago, Luo Yun's ideas at that time could really influence the entire New World Survey Team. In recent years, when it comes to ecological issues, the survey team would even try to seek Luo Yun's opinion.

Watching the Grand Commander leaving his lair, Luo Yun was also thinking in his mind.

During the days he was away, as the situation became more chaotic, not only was the fire dragon at the bottom of the ancient tree damaged, but even the Yaohuo Dragon, which had only been renamed a subspecies of fire dragon by the investigation team in recent years, suffered some damage.

Although he had anticipated this kind of thing, Luo Yun still felt a little uncomfortable when it actually happened.

Originally according to Luo Yun's idea, the fire dragon on the ancient tree could only go with the flow while keeping itself stable. However, with his previous exploration of nature's consciousness, Luo Yun also had some ideas.

Isn't it just using the lives of monsters to fill the cycle of the ancient tree forest, and by the way, make the already saturated ancient tree forest have vacancies again?
The New World Survey Team has been in the New World for so many years, and the second-generation 'natives' have been born for a long time, so how can they be considered part of the New World, right?

"Roar!"

A long roar let Tonkotsu, who was always guarding the entrance to the Dragon's Nest, come in, and an order was given that was enough to make the investigation team crazy.

Soon, as Pig Bone walked into the ancient tree research base, a hunter with a look of excitement and shock came and flew quickly towards the Star Base with a pterosaur hanging on his back.

"Unrestricted hunting license?!" The commander-in-chief once again asked the hunter who had sent the message, holding up a parchment with the seal of the fire dragon Detel that came from the ancient Shuchihuo Village.
