Gacha games can't save this bizarre world.

Then there are those that possess dragon blood... some strange beings that don't exhibit any dragon characteristics at all, yet possess dragon blood. The proliferation of such creatures is unimaginable. Because dragons... are rather benevolent.

What's really outrageous is the dragonfly! Dragon...fly, what's going on?

Those with dragon blood are called sub-dragons, which can be considered subspecies of dragons.

Finally, there are the real dragons. Generally, the dragons that are mentioned in mythology are of the silver level.

Dragons have a long lifespan, and most of them become silver-level once they reach adulthood.

However, the period of psychic dormancy is most unfriendly to such naturally powerful alien species; they can no longer even survive, let alone possess strength.

So they either escaped or they died.

And on the mountaintop was a nest of about several dozen sub-dragons—bipedal hurricane pterosaurs.

Genuine dragons have four limbs and two wings; a two-legged sub-dragon indicates that its bloodline is relatively thin.

Although it might be high-level bronze, at least it's not the insurmountable silver. Zhao Hao felt much better.

The five people encountered a bipedal pterosaur that was about three meters long and had a wingspan of five meters.

This thing looks a bit like a pterosaur, with a long beak, but it has thick legs and a tail. It's hard to say whether they are related.

They have a pair of enormous wings, tiny scales, a thin body, and a long beak; these things look incredibly lethal. The constantly flowing wind-attribute spiritual energy on their wings further indicates that they are born with supernatural abilities, capable of controlling the power of wind.

The one in front of us should be the lowest level and the youngest, but it still has the strength of a Black Iron 4-star.

Zhao Hao used a silent illusion barrier to enclose it, so as not to disturb more pterosaurs on the mountaintop.

The five people took turns attacking within the barrier, testing the pterosaur's abilities.

First and foremost is speed. This thing is extremely fast and explosive, often shooting straight at the enemy like a sharp arrow without any acceleration.

That was the sudden burst of power it generated using wind-attribute spiritual energy.

Moreover, its beak-like mouth has extremely strong penetrating power.

Its wings can fan out gales, and can also create chaotic wind blades within the gales.

Although the fine scales on its skin don't look impressive, they offer high defensive capabilities, and a police pistol probably wouldn't be able to cause any damage.

Moreover, because it is a sub-dragon, it has a high resistance to psionic energy.

Even Prada's curses, which didn't utilize "divine" power, were ineffective. She also showed remarkable resistance to Ciro's "hypnosis" and "poetry."

The dragon bloodline ensures that this thing has a high upper and lower limit, no obvious weaknesses, and some other special abilities.

……

The five of them cautiously and steadily made their way to the top of the mountain.

All the pterosaurs we encountered along the way were contained and dealt with using barriers to prevent them from attracting other monsters or escaping.

This thing accelerates faster than even the best sports cars, and it can fly! If it really wants to run, it's hard to stop it.

If one of them escapes, our group will be exposed.

The dozens of pterosaurs on the mountain would be alarmed.

Fortunately, thanks to Zhao Hao's barrier and Prada's witchcraft, the five of them escaped unharmed.

They had taken down more than a dozen Iron 4-star and Iron 5-star Pterodactyls along the way, and were only a few hundred meters away from the summit.

The surrounding temperature had risen considerably by this time.

Only then did Zhao Hao and the others realize that this mountain, which was only about a thousand meters high, was actually a volcano, and an active one at that!

There was a crater on the mountaintop that was several hundred meters in diameter!

The crater wasn't deep, maybe twenty or thirty meters, and below it was a lava pit. Although there wasn't a trace of smoke or fire, it was steaming hot.

Zhao Hao released an invisible dragonfly paper shikigami to look down from a high place.

The lava pit was dark red, and the surface lava appeared to be semi-solid, but the fiery red cracks indicated that the volcano was still active and the lava was still slowly flowing.

Within this lava crater, many black rock pillars protrude. And atop these pillars, numerous eggs are scattered!

There were about twenty of them, oval-shaped, larger than a typical washbasin, scattered in twos and threes in the recesses of several black rock pillars.

On the largest rock pillar in the lava pit, a giant beast lies crouched.

Because of the posture, it's hard to tell exactly how big it is, but it's definitely not small.

Its entire body is bronze in color, with a metallic sheen. It has a relatively long and narrow head, and its "beak" in front is similar to that of its offspring, but it appears wider and shorter, covered with fangs.

However, the bones at the back of the head branched to the sides, growing two segmented black horns.

This bipedal hurricane pterosaur clearly had a stronger dragon bloodline, and its dragon-like characteristics were more pronounced. Meanwhile, its offspring began to show varying degrees of degeneration.

On the huge black rock pillar where the bipedal hurricane pterosaur was coiled, a golden cabinet stood diagonally, very conspicuous!

The cabinet was a little over a meter tall, not very large. Golden light flowed from it, and it was decorated with reliefs of unknown content. Above the cabinet, two angels faced each other with outstretched wings.

This must be the Ark of the Covenant!

The two-legged hurricane pterosaurs, like precious treasures, perched on either side, guarding the area firmly.

The extraordinary nature of the creatures on this island is likely due to the presence of the Ark of the Covenant altering the nature of psychic energy.

This could also be the reason for the purification of the Hurricane Pterosaur's bloodline. That's why it guards the Ark of the Covenant and never leaves its side!

Just as Zhao Hao was about to approach and observe the lava pit with his paper dragonfly, the lava within seemed to come alive, suddenly churning and surging, followed by a violent heat wave that spread outwards. It was a periodic activity, and it even generated a burst of fire-attribute spiritual energy!

The spiritual energy that Zhao Hao had attached to the paper shikigami was almost instantly "burned off," and then the paper dragonfly in the air was ignited by the heat wave and caught fire!

Zhao Hao thought to himself, "This is bad," when the two-legged hurricane pterosaur suddenly opened its lantern-sized eyes.

Chapter 371 Three Deadly Sins

The bipedal hurricane pterosaur opened its eyes, which were as large as the largest lanterns, orange-yellow in color, with a vertical pupil in the middle that looked like a black slit, cold and ruthless.

Its gaze was fixed on a small clump of ashes that had almost burned out and was falling to the ground.

It raised its neck... The stone pillar beneath it was already over ten meters tall, and when it raised its neck, it actually extended its head out of the crater!

That dragon is quite large!

Its movement immediately unleashed an indescribable pressure that emanated from the Hurricane Pteranodon. The other pteranodons, whether resting or flitting about, were startled by this pressure and began to cry out in a chaotic cacophony.

The five people inside the illusion barrier remained silent, but they all felt an inexplicable pressure.

Everyone else was fine, but Sam and Ciro felt inexplicably stressed.

My blood pressure rose, my heart rate increased, my muscles tensed up reflexively, and my palms started sweating.

Is this what they call the Dragon's Might?

Even though Ciro and Sam were already bronze-level superhumans, they were still weak on a life level. Their survival instincts began to warn them that there was a very dangerous presence nearby.

Both of them were, after all, bronze-level players who had been forced to grow too quickly; they still lacked a solid foundation. Players like Zhao Hao and Prada, on the other hand, didn't seem to have much of a foundation.

While Blacklink is also a Bronze-level being who has been forced to grow up too fast, he is a transcendent being on the physical path, with stronger control over his body and a higher level of life.

Most importantly, after numerous trials and surgical enhancements, Black Lincoln is now able to freely control most of its hormone secretion. It has a high resistance to this abnormal state.

Moreover, he was a seasoned veteran with a strong mental fortitude.

The hurricane-like pterosaur spread its wings, enveloping the black stone pillar beneath it—or rather, the golden Ark of the Covenant. Using its wings for support, it raised itself even higher. Yet, it still saw nothing amiss.

The surrounding scenery was that kind of desolate, dark gray mountain gravel.

However, it was not unintelligent and sensed something was wrong. With a powerful push off the stone pillar with its strong legs and a flap of its wings, it flew out of the crater.

It was only then that the five people below realized that this thing was ridiculously big!

It is over 20 meters long, and if you include the long, thin meteor hammer tail behind it, it is close to 40 meters long!

Its wingspan is about 35 meters!

This size is almost comparable to those medium-sized passenger planes that can carry more than a hundred people!

That dragon's might had grown even stronger! Sam was sweating profusely, while Ciro muttered to himself to calm himself down.

However, to the Hurricane Pterosaur, there was still nothing unusual about its surroundings.

The five of them lowered their breathing. To be honest, no one wanted to fight such a giant aerial beast, especially with dozens of "small monsters" of all sizes around them!

No, it can't be called a small monster, because another sizable hurricane-like pterosaur is flying back from afar!

It was much smaller, but it was still nearly thirty meters long including its tail, and it was holding a giant monster fish that was more than ten meters long on its thick feet!

Did they go hunting? No, they went fishing!

The largest bipedal hurricane pterosaur was female, a bronze level 3 troll.

The bipedal hurricane that flew back later was male and a Bronze 1-star monster.

Damn, there's even a second boss!

The second hurricane pterosaur flew back with its prey, instantly enlivening the mountaintop. Pterosaurs of all sizes approached, hoping to get a piece of the meat.

The mother hurricane seemed to relax her guard and slowly descended.

The five people inside the barrier breathed a sigh of relief. Sam said, "Great! Brother Zhao's barrier makes them unable to see us!"

However, at that moment, the mother dragon, who was about to land on the black stone pillar, suddenly revealed a cunning expression and let out a loud howl.

Suddenly, a gust of wind spread outwards!

This hurricane pterosaur possesses wind-based abilities, and the bronze 3-star behemoth's use of it is even more astonishing, instantly creating a hurricane on flat ground.

Zhao Hao suddenly felt a chill run down his spine, "Oh no!"

Xiluo was startled by the mother dragon's roar and instinctively asked, "What's broken?"

However, before Zhao Hao could answer, everyone else already knew what was wrong.

The hurricane whipped up flying sand and stones, sweeping wildly around the crater without leaving any blind spots. However, although Zhao Hao's barrier could become invisible and silent, it was still a physical barrier. The hurricane and debris that hit the barrier were blocked!

The Hurricane Pterosaur is extremely sensitive to wind movement, and the existence of the barrier was exposed.

With a furious roar, the mother dragon took off in an instant.

The other pterosaurs were also thrown into disarray by this shout, and the male pterosaur abandoned its prey and flew over as well!

……

The battle down the mountain has already been decided.
