I'm going to kill everyone who calls me Hill.

Xier, who silently beat up Bai Xing in her heart, repeated her findings calmly.

"Oh? Blue?"

Shirahoshi answered seriously, and quietly put the captured butterfly into the jar.

"You... forget it, the guide insect shows blue, which is confirmed to be the trace of the ancient dragon."

Bai Xing's little movements naturally could not be hidden from Xier who was facing her, but Xier, who was already used to it, completely ignored her little movements and answered naturally.

"Blue? Let's go and see what kind of ancient dragon it is."

Bai Xing waved his hand and walked in front, followed closely by Xier. Although Bai Xing usually slacked off, she was always at the front when it came to real exploration.

The two followed the guide's route and walked towards the depths of the Great Ant Mound Wasteland.

As the name suggests, the Big Ant Mound Wasteland is home to a huge ant nest. Normally, this is where many creatures that like rocks and high temperatures live, but at this time, the Big Ant Mound Wasteland seems particularly peaceful.

"What's going on here?"

Xier frowned and looked around. She found that not only the coquettish birds that usually walked around were gone, but even the herbivorous dragons that were seen everywhere were nowhere to be seen.

"What's going on? This aura..."

Bai Xing also realized that something was wrong. She always felt that there was a heavy atmosphere in the air, and the temperature here was getting higher and higher from time to time?

Suddenly, the originally blue guide insect suddenly turned red and drilled back into the insect cage.

"Boom, boom, boom"

Suddenly, a sound like the movement of the earth's crust was heard. Bai Xing's face changed and he looked in Xi'er's direction and shouted, "Xi'er, be careful, it's a horned dragon!"

Ceratopsus, a species of dragon that is herbivorous but no less ferocious than carnivorous dragons. The huge curved horns on its head can easily penetrate the defenses of most dragons. Its powerful feet can give Ceratopsus great mobility, while its wings and huge horns are the tools for Ceratopsus to move underground.

This signature roar signals the presence of ceratopsians.

Xi'er naturally heard the roar, but she couldn't move at all at this moment because her consciousness was not here at this moment.

In a dark space, Xier was anxiously looking for a way out.

Just now, when Xier heard the voice of the horned dragon and was about to hide, her eyes went dark, and when she opened her eyes again, she was here.

"Why am I here?"

Xier was extremely anxious at this time, not knowing why she was in the stigmata space. But no matter how she got here, Xier's first priority was to get out, otherwise the ceratosaurus outside would not wait for her to slowly find the exit.

"The little girl's abilities are really interesting..."

Just then, a sound that sounded extremely ancient echoed in the space.

"who!"

Xier was shocked. This should be her stigma space, how could there be other people here!

"Oh? You're not afraid? That's right, I haven't announced my name yet."

"I am the dragon that commands fire, the lord of purgatory!"

"Theo Discator"

Chapter 14: Conversation with the Flame Dragon

"I am Theo Discator, the Lord of Purgatory"

The voice spoke his name with a proud tone.

"Theo Discator?"

Xier repeated the name thoughtfully.

"Correct!"

The voice calling itself Theo Discator sounded again.

"Who?"

However, Xier looked for a long time but couldn't remember where she had heard this name.

"what!"

The voice shouted in surprise: "You haven't heard of my name?"

As if he was too surprised, the owner of the voice even forgot to call himself "I".

"Ah, this..." Xier was a little confused after being yelled at. Isn't it too much to ask her to suddenly remember a name?

"Are you thinking about it? What kind of dragon can control fire?"

The voice mentioned some key points to induce Xier to recall.

"If you want to talk about fire, fire dragon?"

The first thing Xier thought of was the large monster called the Sky Overlord, but then she thought again, she had dealt with fire dragons before, but she had never seen a fire dragon that could talk?

"Nonsense, how can a fire dragon compare to me!"

The voice seemed to have heard Xier's inner thoughts and quickly denied it, while also mocking the fire dragon.

"Then... the one that is stronger than the Fire Dragon, the Blue Fire Dragon?"

Xier said cautiously.

"What! It's a bit stronger, but it's still a fire dragon!!!"

The voice obviously didn't expect Xier to mention a subspecies, and immediately roared angrily.

"Ah, don't be angry, I'll think about it."

The frightened Xier quickly comforted him and thought about it again.

(It looks like it’s even more powerful than the Azure Fire Dragon. Emmmm, it controls fire, and is even more powerful than the Azure Fire Dragon…)

"Xi'er knows!"

Xier hammered her palm, raised her head and said, "You are the Silver Rathalos, right?"

"me!"

The voice sounded as if it was in a state of rage, and it couldn't speak clearly.

"You did it on purpose, didn't you!!!"

With a tone of wanting to cry but not being able to, that voice finally broke through Xier's defense.

"Hey, how did you know that?"

Xier laughed sinisterly, but she immediately said, "You are actually the Flame King Dragon, right? The Hunter's Guild's illustrations record: a lonely ancient dragon, a deadly hunter, with powerful explosive power and skilled flame attacks that make him the top of the food chain, known as the 'Flame King' and the 'Lord of Purgatory'."

Xi'er quietly flattered him. She knew the name of the visitor when she heard the title of Lord of Purgatory, but since they could talk, it meant that the other party didn't want to kill Xi'er. Moreover, she had some complaints about this ancient dragon that quietly pulled her into the stigmata space, so she tried it with a revengeful mentality and found that it was indeed an ancient dragon. It is said that ancient dragons have extremely high wisdom, so Xi'er made a little spoof of it, and then immediately flattered it. After all, Xi'er didn't want to really offend an ancient dragon.

"You are such a naughty cub."

Flame King Dragon said this with a wry smile, but it was obvious that Xier's words benefited him greatly.

Xier smiled, this ancient dragon looked very kind. But this made Xier even more confused, why would an ancient dragon who didn't care about humans want to talk to her?

"Why did you bring Xi'er in to talk?"

Xier asked with a respectful title. After all, she was facing a creature more powerful than herself, and it would be impolite not to show a little respect.

"What are you talking about, little guy? Didn't your mother tell you not to run out of the territory casually?"

When the voice heard Xier's question, it couldn't help but laugh a few times and then said something that made Xier even more confused.

"what?"

(What the hell? Why are parents involved?)

Xier was confused for a moment. Why was this dragon talking so incoherently?

Then the Flame King Dragon said something that made Xier even more confused.

"If I hadn't discovered you were a cub just now, I would have come out to deal with you."

The Flame King Dragon said with some helplessness and warning: "Little guy, go home quickly and don't wander around. I still have to prepare to take care of the children. I don't have time to deal with you. This is a warning."

"It does not make sense?"

These incoherent words made Xier have no idea what he was talking about. What did he mean by going home?

"Hey, you young dragon, don't you understand what I'm saying?"

There was a hint of impatience in the Flame King Dragon's tone, and he was obviously a little angry.

"Baby dragon?"

Xier pointed at herself in surprise, and it took her a long time to realize that the young dragon in the Flame King Dragon's mouth was referring to herself.

"If not you, who else could it be? Apart from you and me, there is no way there would be a third dragon in this place!"

Yan Wanglong was almost laughed at by Xier, he calmed down and spoke in a calm tone.

"But Xi'er isn't a dragon either?"

Xier blinked her eyes, wondering if this Flame Dragon had lived too long and had become presbyopic.

"It's not a dragon, what are you talking about... Eh? Something seems to be wrong..."

The Flame King Dragon was about to laugh but seemed to have discovered something. He quickly released his consciousness to investigate. Xier only felt a force gently brushing across her body.

"Hey, little guy, who are your parents?"

"Eh?"

I don't know why I suddenly asked my parents. Xi'er was also stunned and answered subconsciously: "Xi'er doesn't know."

"Hmm? That's weird, your powers? Are you the kid of that guy who plays Graveyard Story all day?"

"Graveyard Story? Who is that?"

Xier was even more confused. What the hell was this game name that sounded quite sinister?

"Oh yeah, you may not know, it's that someone...what's her name, I've called her that nickname so many times that I've kind of forgotten her name."

Yan Wanglong carefully recalled the owner of that nickname, and after thinking for a long time he finally remembered.

"Oh, yes! That guy called Hazak."

It was another name Xier had never heard of, and it sounded like Gu Long's name.

"Hey, that doesn't make sense. How come you still have the power of a Nergigante?"

There was a sudden hint of caution in Flame Dragon's tone.

"This really confuses Long. Could it be that these two guys are together? One is responsible for killing, and the other is responsible for burying? Funeral service experts?"

The words of Yan Wanglong completely shattered Xier's inherent impression of Gu Long. My goodness, he was just like a nagging househusband.

"Forget it. No matter whose child you are, leave now. It seems that the kid is about to give birth. It's better for a kid like you to find your mother to protect you. Otherwise, if the earth energy explodes, you won't have the strength to survive."

"and many more……"

However, without giving Xier a chance, Yan Wanglong left after saying that, leaving Xier alone here.

"No, I'm really not a dragon. Besides, if you want to leave, don't leave Xi'er here alone."

Xier felt that the Flame King Dragon had really left like this, and suddenly she felt like crying but had no tears. This guy pulled her over, said some weird things and then left on his own. Are all ancient dragons like this?

Fortunately, Xier was not left here, and soon a force pushed Xier's consciousness back to reality.

When Xier returned to reality, the first scene she saw shocked her again.

"Yoshi Yoshi! Try this!"

Bai Xing stroked the giant horn of the horn dragon, and then, in Xi'er's horrified eyes, took a bunch of cactus fruits and stuffed them into the mouth of the horn dragon. The horn dragon cooperated very well and ate the fruits.

The scene was indescribably harmonious, and the interaction between the two made Xier feel like she was experiencing the interaction between a master and a pet.

"Xi'er, has she traveled through time again?"

Chapter 15: Beast Tamer Shirahoshi

"Did Xi'er travel through time again?"

Xier looked at the interaction between Bai Xing and the horned dragon with a strange look on her face. She wondered if she had traveled through time inadvertently. How could Bai Xing tame a horned dragon in just a short while?
