The young dragon tries to conquer the world

　Just as the little girl was eating with a face full of OVO, three Melalurus rushed out of the dense forest on the shore in a panic. The Melaluru in the middle was holding a white thing in its arms. When Lanmei looked closely, she realized that it was a fire dragon egg.

　Melaluru, leading the pack, couldn't run very fast because she was carrying the dragon egg, especially after reaching the beach, where her speed slowed considerably. Meanwhile, the other Melaluru had already switched from bipedal running to quadrupedal running. Before the group could even make it across the beach, a sudden surge of energy erupted from the forest canopy. "Roar!" A furious roar echoed from the forest as the female Rathalos burst through the canopy, soaring into the air and lunging at the sprinting Melaluru.

　The Melalurus meowed and cried out in alarm, clearly surprised that their prized thieving methods had failed them, and that they had been caught red-handed by the female Rathalos. While the dense forest offered some protection against the Rathalos, the beach offered them complete visibility. The Melalurus fled in panic, but the sight of the blue-and-white and cherry-red figures on the shore gave them a sense of security.

　"Meow! Meow! Meow!" Boss, help me!

　The female Rathian's dark golden eyes had spotted the two humans on the beach long ago, but she didn't pay them any attention, following her previous...

　It was a habit that those clueless humans liked to bring along these furry four-legged creatures, so the female Rathalos wasn't surprised. Besides, the most important thing right now was to retrieve her eggs and teach those thieves a lesson. What she didn't expect was that the Meralus had actually run towards the humans.

　"Bang!" The female Rathian's eyes were suddenly flashed by something, and before she could even understand what was happening, she was sent flying. Judging from the contorted expression on the female Rathian's face and the sound of the impact, the thing that hit her was incredibly tough and the force was immense, making the female Rathian feel like she was going to vomit up the herbivorous dragon she had eaten the night before.

　The female Rathalos blinked hard, but thankfully the sight had only temporarily blinded her. She quickly regained her sight, and just as she was about to rise up to see who had attacked her, the platinum dragon was already in front of her. The World Lord raised its wing claws and slammed them down on the female Rathalos.

　"Boom!" Dust flew everywhere, and half of the female Rathalos's head was embedded in the ground. The good news was that the scales in that area weren't broken; only some were knocked askew, and some blood had flowed. The bad news was that the attacked part of her head was a bloody mess. The female Rathalos struggled and opened her mouth wide towards Hui Shi Zhang, and flames could even be faintly seen deep in her throat, showing that she hadn't given up and was still struggling.

　"Bang!" The Lord of Reincarnation didn't give it a chance. Its wing claws slammed down violently, and the female Rathalos was knocked down with half of its body buried in the mud. Its long neck, which was originally covered by a hard shell, was now just a bloody, mangled half. The dragon head lying to one side looked extremely disheveled. A strangely colored tongue dangled out from its half-open mouth.

　"Meow! Meow!" Boss is so strong!

　After yawning, the World-Wanderer did not revert to her child form. Instead, she bent down, tore open the female Rathalos's abdomen, and ate its liver and heart. Then she returned to the seaside to continue eating seafood.

　Meralu, regaining her senses, quickly climbed onto the female Rathalos's body, gripping the scalpel tightly with her cat paws. She forcefully inserted it into the gap between the bones. "Meow!" A burst of flames suddenly erupted from the incision, startling Meralu. The flames even burned the flesh of the female Rathalos next to her into a charred mess.

　However, the Melalus quickly recovered, pressing down hard with their cat paws gripping the hilt of their swords. They then pried up a section of the cylindrical dragon bone, from which flames were emerging. After making another cut on the other side of the bone, they finally extracted a complete fire dragon bone.

　Melalu, who was standing by, immediately stepped forward and wrapped it in a bag. Then she tied the bag tightly and pulled the rope at the bottom. With a "whoosh," the entire bag tightened up as if it had been sucked onto a bone. This kind of tool was a portable vacuum bag prepared to carry the marrow of a fire dragon. Fire dragon marrow would ignite upon contact with air, so there was no way to take it away without this method.

　After extracting the most dangerous fire dragon marrow, the Meralu skillfully inserted their blades into the gaps in the female fire dragon's shell, forcefully severing the connection between the scales and the skin. The Meralu then proceeded as if dissecting a fish, smoothly sliding the blades across the carcass. Soon, the female fire dragon's shell was covered in marrow. After taking a shower at the beach, the Meralu pulled out a firework-like device from their backpacks and activated the mechanism.

　"Whoosh!" Bright flames immediately rose into the sky. Soon after, the Palicoes arrived here pushing a cart. On the way back to the city, the young girl and Lan Mei were surrounded by a large box filled with fire dragon shells, fire dragon marrow, and various parts of female fire dragon meat. As Lan Mei expected, the young girl was already looking forward to dinner.

　PS: Second update!

　PS2: There are always animals that defy the world's norms. In everyone's common sense, animal development is about becoming faster and stronger, but sea squirts take a different path. Their development is a process of degeneration; they consume their brains and eyes, even abandoning their notochord, and then degenerate into an invertebrate. Isn't this what they mean by "no pain, no gain"?

　PS3: Well then, I wish you all a pleasant and wonderful day!

　Volume 1: Chapter 351 - The Colossus That Eats Dirt

　"Meow, meow meow meow, meow meow." Look at these marks, they're huge! What kind of monster's marks are these?

　The most experienced Melalu was digging at the dragon bones buried in the ground when it heard its companion's cry. It immediately approached the Melalu that had discovered the traces and examined them carefully. The traces were indeed very large, just as Melalu had said, and the entire ground looked as if it had been plowed by something strange. Not only was the surface damaged with obvious marks, but the soil underneath had also been dug up, and the exposed soil looked very fresh.

　Melalu curiously stretched out her furry paws and picked up a clod of dirt from the ground. The sticky texture and strange smell of the clod made Melalu feel that it was more like a mixture of some kind of monster's saliva and soil.

　"Meow, meow." Look over here, the bushes and flowers have all sprouted.

　Just as Melalu had predicted, a large patch of plants and flowers sprouted on the ground next to the land where they were searching for materials, even though the area around them was...

　The area wasn't as vibrant as it seemed, but the Melalus were completely baffled by this. As they continued searching for the cause, they suddenly noticed a person lying in the nearby bushes. Thinking something had happened to the hunter, the Melalus immediately grabbed their nutrient solutions, secret medicine, and antidote, and ran quickly over with their short legs. However, they were surprised to find that the person was simply lying there, not unconscious.

　"Oh no, that's not right either, we've made a mistake again."

　Bahari's sudden voice startled the Melalurus, whose movements drew the man's attention. "Oh, it's Elune, no, you're Melalurus, aren't you?"

　"Meow!" We are the brave and fearless Melaloo team, working hard to prepare lunch for our leader!

　As the Melalurus talked, they showed the man the ingredients they had gathered. "Oh! Is that so? You wouldn't happen to be Melalurus from that hunter from Flamefire Village, would you?"

　"Meow, meow." No, we're the boss's men.

　"Oh, I see!" Bahari had barely finished speaking when he noticed the pile of dirt behind Melalu. "This is... this is truly rare." Bahari excitedly ran behind Melalu and exaggeratedly knelt down on the ground, completely unconcerned that the dirt had soiled his pants and shirt. Bahari carefully picked up the pile of dirt that Melalu and the others had just investigated. Bahari not only checked the texture of the dirt with his hands but also leaned forward to smell it. He even felt that wasn't enough and stuck out his tongue to taste a little.

　"There's no mistake, this is it. The marks of the earth being dug up by a powerful force, the drag marks of something being dragged, the slightly rotten smell of the soil with a predominantly fresh fragrance, and the enormous marks—all these things indicate one thing: that guy is nearby."

　Bahari happily stood up from the mud, clapped his hands, and said, "It's a Grimwrath. I didn't expect it to appear here. Grimwraths rarely leave their territory, and herbivorous Grimwraths are usually very good-natured. But for a Grimwrath to appear here means that something strange must have happened. It seems that my decision to come to the forest to investigate first was absolutely correct."

　The Meralus looked at the strange human who was talking to himself and then leaving on his own, and they all looked at their companions with puzzled expressions. Then they meowed twice, shook their heads at this hopeless human, and continued to prepare the spices and side dishes for lunch.

　I don't know why, but in groups like the Four Heavenly Kings or the Three Giants, there will always be a dashing and cunning character, a fierce and violent character, and the most classic one, a strong man with a muscular physique and great strength. Of course, it would be even more fitting if this strong man had a gentle personality that didn't match his appearance.

　Unfortunately, the Grimwrath sleeping on the high platform is exactly like that. Although the Grimwrath, a fanged beast monster living in the lush vegetation of the kingdom, has a rugged appearance and looks like a huge beast made of piled stones from a distance, it has a cowardly and peaceful personality that is completely inconsistent with its appearance.

　According to the investigation by the Royal Scryers, Brachydios almost never leave their habitat; in fact, Brachydios can be considered good companions of the forest and good friends of small animals.

　Nevertheless, the Steel-Bound Beast is one of the three marquises of the royal domain, and when enraged, it can also exhibit extremely strong aggression.

　In the tranquil afternoon forest, Will-o'-the-Wisp perched on the head of a Briarthorn, chirping softly. A snow-white Smoky Weasel climbed up and down Briarthorn's body. Sunlight filtered through Briarthorn's body, casting a strange shadow on the ground. If anyone were lucky enough to witness this scene, they would understand why Briarthorn also had the title of Immaculate Giant Shadow.

　A short while later, the beast seemed to be hungry. After exhaling two long puffs of hot air from its nose, it slowly got up from the ground.

　The Brutus is a monster that primarily feeds on fungi, enjoying digging mushrooms out of the ground to eat. At the same time, the Brutus also has a habit of eating soil. However, when eating soil, the Brutus first uses its hoe-like tail to dig open the ground. This plowing-like action exposes the soft, nutrient-rich soil beneath the surface, which the Brutus then consumes. This behavior seems to confirm the Brutus's diet. On another level, this eating behavior is like the Brutus unintentionally improving the soil quality through its daily activities, thus promoting the growth of the forest.

　This explains why the Meralus found soft soil and many flowers and plants along the edges of the soil at the traces. The reason for this is that the Grimwrath's body can secrete a slimy substance called body fertilizer. The components of this slime can promote plant growth like fertilizer. Of course, in addition, the Grimwrath also uses its left hand to catch fish or dig up mushrooms from the ground to eat, while its right hand is often used to wash its body.

　The young girl watched in shock as the beast devoured the dirt, even using its right hand to pick up large pieces of rock to wash itself, then sniffing them before dismissively shaking its hand away.

　Lanmei has never seen a meeting.

　The guy who eats dirt, and he even looks satisfied. Can dirt really be eaten?

　However, this was no challenge for the clever little girl. She tried it and found out. The little girl slowly reached out to pick up a clod of dirt from the ground and put it in her mouth. Lanmei had no choice but to grab the little girl's arm with lightning speed and then solemnly shook her head at the little girl, indicating that this was not allowed.

　The young girl then withdrew her hand listlessly. She wasn't hungry, so she didn't have much interest in the beast. Facing this creature, which was about the same size as a member of the fire dragon family, the young girl felt that it was more like a rock dragon.

　"Meow!" Boss, we're here!

　Following the scents of the young girl and Lanmei, the Melalurus found them and placed the fruits, bamboo shoots, mushrooms, and onions they had found on the ground. The young girl then took out large chunks of fire dragon meat and beautiful sheep meat from her bracelet. Soon, the Melalurus built a kitchen here with patterns in their own style. The Melalurus skillfully carried the female fire dragon meat into the air, "Meow~!"

　Melalu raised her kitchen knife, and in a flash, the fire dragon meat landed heavily on the cutting board. Then, due to the force of the impact, the female fire dragon meat turned into a bright red flower.

　PS: First update!

　PS2: Crows are actually very intelligent animals, ranking only behind gorillas, elephants, and dolphins in animal intelligence rankings. They also have a special ability: they can remember human faces.

　Volume 1: Chapter 352 - Bahari's Obsession with Investigation

　The remaining Melalurus chopped up the mushrooms, bamboo shoots and other side dishes and placed them on the baking tray. After brushing the tray with the fat of the Li Yang beast, the tender and thin slices of female fire dragon meat immediately curled up. The hot fat emitted an enticing aroma. The little girl grabbed the slices of meat that Melalurus had grilled, sprinkled on the seasoning and ate them all in one bite.

　Just as the young girl and Lanmei were about to leave after eating and drinking their fill, a swarm of strange red flying insects suddenly drifted down from the sky. The Lord of the World immediately recognized the scent; it was the same scent he had smelled on his younger sister. This immediately put the young girl and Lanmei on alert. However, the red flying insects did not attack them. Instead, they circled in the air several times before slowly landing on the beast that had just been entangled.

　After landing on the Bristlewing, the red fly clung tightly to its body. Although the Bristlewing's scales were covered with thick moss, and leafy plants grew in the gaps between the scales, sometimes even revealing flowers, the red fly still attached itself to the Bristlewing's vulnerable belly, neck, and face. Then, the red fly visibly grew larger and brighter.

　The Grimbringer, which was in its sleep, suddenly opened its eyes after being stung by the red flying insect. At first, it was able to maintain its rationality, but soon it seemed to have lost its mind and started crashing around on the mountainside. You should know that the Grimbringer's huge size not only gave the hunters a sense of intimidation, but also extremely exaggerated strength and weight. The Meralu, who had just finished cleaning up the dishes, were so frightened that they trembled all over and then hid behind the little girl and the Storm Girl.

　After its rampage, the Beast turned its gaze toward the young girl and roared. Its arms were covered in protruding carapaces, which it utilized in battle. It would plunge its hands into the ground and then pull them out, where the plant matter and sand, reinforced by its own secreted sap, would tightly bind to its arms, forming enhanced "gauntlets." This is precisely why the Beast is called the Beast.

　According to the records of the Royal Scribes, the reason why the left hand of the Brontë beast is often used to pry open water plants to catch fish and dig up mud to dig up mushrooms is that the left hand of the Brontë beast will wrap around water-containing moss in the soil, becoming a "water gauntlet". The right hand, because it needs to vigorously clean dirt, will cover itself with soil and rocks from the soil. Under the effect of the body fluid, these not only help the Brontë beast to firmly fix lava and sand to its body and arms, but also catalyze the lava into explosive dust to blow away enemies.

　When Gangnir is extremely excited, it will plunge its head into the ground, wrapping it with moss and lava. Its eyes will emit a terrifying red light, and it will spew out billowing steam. At this time, Gangnir will unleash its most intimidating move: pulling a huge rock from the ground, heating it with lava, and then slamming the scorching rock with its left hand, the Water Gauntlet, causing a large-scale steam explosion.

　The Grimbringer raised its powerful forelimbs and charged towards the little girl and Lan Mei. A flash of blue light, and the little girl immediately reverted to her dragon form. The World Lord raised its wing claws and swatted the Grimbringer away, but the enraged Grimbringer immediately raised its forelimbs high, unleashing two completely different elemental attacks at the World Lord. The World Lord calmly opened its wing claws and spewed three orbs of Dragon Virus at the Grimbringer. Facing an enemy attacking from a distance, the Grimbringer suddenly leaped high into the air, then...

　His heavy body crashed to the ground, but that meant nothing to the Lord of Reincarnation.

　"Roar~" The Gangen Beast screamed as it was pinned down by the Hui Shi Zhu. Sharp wing claws and sword-like scales pierced deeply through the Gangen Beast's armor. The Hui Shi Zhu then lowered its head and bit down on the Gangen Beast's throat. After biting down hard with its dragon teeth, it twisted its neck and broke it.

　After the death of the Entangled Beast, the red flying insects, unable to absorb energy, gradually detached themselves from its body. Instead of flying home, they sensed the Returning Lord and flew towards it, attaching themselves to its scales and opening their sharp mouthparts to try and absorb its energy. The Returning Lord had no choice but to open its wing membranes to protect its chest and head, while the gnawing insects continued to gather in greater numbers.

　For the red flying insects, also known as the gnawing insects, the energy within the Hui Shi Zhu body was incredibly tempting. Compared to the Hui Shi Zhu, their previous two hosts were worlds apart. This pure energy, or rather, the earth vein energy, was exactly what the gnawing insects loved. Moreover, even though the Crimson Emperor Dragon God Jade within the Hui Shi Zhu body was not yet fully developed, this pseudo-infinite earth vein energy made the gnawing insects like it even more. If it weren't for the fact that they hadn't had such a good thing for a long time, the gnawing insects would have wanted to go back immediately and tell their previous companions.

　But for the Reincarnation Lord, it was a different story. She remembered what had become of her younger sister. The Reincarnation Lord had originally intended to spare her life, but the Chaos Black Devouring Dragon charged forward recklessly. Even though the Reincarnation Lord wasn't particularly keen on fighting back, the Chaos Black Devouring Dragon summoned the red flying insects, allowing them to devour its energy and converting their power into its own. This behavior disgusted the Reincarnation Lord, which is why she had never given the Life-Gnawing Insects a second thought.

　However, as for the grubs, if they could, they really wanted to stay on the Reincarnated Lord forever, but the Reincarnated Lord would never agree to that.

　When Lanmei saw Huishizhu wrap herself in her wing membrane, she realized what had happened, but even if she immediately transformed back into Lanlong, she couldn't solve the problem. So she immediately ran to Huishizhu's side and tried to swat the biting insects to death. The Meralu also put on full protective gear, covered their mouths and noses, and stabbed the biting insects with daggers.

　"Awooo~" Hui Shi Zhu let out a low roar from his throat to let Lan Mei know that he was alright. Lan Mei nodded in relief when she saw that Hui Shi Zhu had not lost his mind. Hui Shi Zhu stretched out his wing claws and kept scratching and squeezing the grubs to kill them on various parts of his body. At the same time, he suddenly flew into the air and then quickly landed on the ground to try to shake off the grubs. However, the grubs' ring-shaped teeth bit into Hui Shi Zhu's scales and would not let go.

　Just as Lanmei was getting anxious, the concentration of scale powder around Huishizhu was constantly increasing, and platinum scale powder was slowly mixed in. At the same time, the biting insects on Huishizhu's body were turning even redder. But Lanmei already knew what Huishizhu was going to do, so she quickly led Melalu and the others away from there.

　The Reincarnated One opened its wings and flapped its claws, making the scales around it more evenly distributed. Then, it detonated all the scales. In the violent explosion, none of the satiated gnats could escape the exploding scales and fell to the ground. The Reincarnated One watched as these disgusting insects opened their mouths and spewed out a beam of azure light, instantly turning them into dust.

　Meanwhile, at the observation base in Elgard, the members of the Royal Scryers' Team, who were scheduled to arrive together, discovered upon arrival that the dragon researcher Bahari had not yet arrived. The captain of the Scryers' Team had no choice but to seek out Admiral Gareas and Fiorena, among others.

　"It's a pleasure to meet you, Commander Gareas and Miss Fiolena. To make a long story short, Bahari, the dragonman researcher and expert in investigating monsters and crafting items, was originally supposed to come with us to observe the base, but he discovered some interesting traces on the way and went straight to investigate. Oh, and he also asked me to give you his regards, Admiral Gareas. He also said he looks forward to seeing Miss Fiolena again."

　“He’s always been that kind of person, but since this has happened, it means that Bahari has encountered something, right? Although it’s his own fault, we can’t abandon our companion. Moreover, this is a tense time when the creatures of the Royal Domain are expanding in a disorderly manner. We must rescue Bahari.”

　"Thank you so much for your help. I'll definitely give him a good talking to later."

　PS: Second update!

　PS2: If a lizard's tongue were fully extended, its length would be twice the length of its body. Just thinking about such a long tongue in its mouth, and then imagining it like a human's... ugh!

　PS3: Well then, I wish you all a wonderful and pleasant day!

　PS4: By the way, the spending event is almost over. If you still have any tickets or gifts, please give them to me! I'll accept your generosity~

　Volume 1: 353 - The Anjanath Throws Itself

　Since confirming the traces of the Steelwrap, Bahari has been targeting the Steelwrap.

　Biao continued searching through the dense forest. Following the trail, he arrived at a boulder shaped like a sharp horn. Bahari gently stroked the rough, uneven surface of the rock and discovered signs of gnawing and abrasion. The damp soil on the ground further proved that the beast had just been there. Anticipation immediately filled Bahari's chest.

　Suddenly, Bahari realized something. After carefully examining the marks on the boulder, he discovered that they were not marks left by a Gangwrath. Gangwrath have canines, wide incisors, and well-developed molars, typical of toothed beasts. However, these marks were more like those left by carnivores, or rather, by carnivorous monsters among the Brute Wyverns.

　Just as Bahari was wondering what kind of monster it was, a furious roar brought him back to reality. A monster covered in soft pink fur stood behind Bahari.

　Anjanathus!

　Upon seeing Bahari, the Anjanath lunged forward with its jaws. Bahari wasn't just a dragonkin researcher; he was also a hunter. Bahari drew his Barbarian Ferocious Club, and without even looking, used his shield to block the Anjanath's attack. He then reversed the direction of his short sword and swung it towards the Anjanath's left cheek. The serrated, sharp blade scraped against the Anjanath's face with a dull thud.

　After the scattered sparks disappeared, Bahari saw the Anjanath's wide-open crimson eyes on the other side of the blade. The blood-red pupils made Bahari's movements pause for a moment, but fortunately, Bahari's body acted before his brain. Bahari grabbed the dye ball tied to his waist with one hand and threw it out with force.

　The red sphere traced an arc and accurately struck the Anjanath's face. A strong odor immediately filled the air around the man and the dragon. The Dye Ball was a tool made from a special fruit called Dye Fruit. Trained hunters could pinpoint the exact location of prey carrying this scent even from a great distance.

　The effective time is about ten minutes. Neither water nor soil can reduce this effect.

　The Anjanath let out a low growl, raised its head, and slammed its head side into Bahari. The impact landed squarely on Bahari's Barbarian Gang shield, sending him flying. Bahari immediately threw out a Wirebug to adjust his position. The Anjanath roared angrily, then lowered its head, bit down on the horn-like boulder, and hurled it at Bahari. Immediately afterward, it lowered its head and charged forward.

　Bahari gripped his shield, charged up, and leaped high into the air, dodging the falling rocks. With his left hand, he swung his sword hilt and, before the Anjanath could bite through his body, used all his strength to plunge the short sword into the Anjanath's right eye socket. With a violent rebound that numbed his arms, Bahari knew clearly that he had destroyed one of the Anjanath's eyes. Dragon blood splattered all over Bahari's arm, and the Anjanath then let out a deafening roar.

　After this terrifying roar, another monster, a young girl who was searching for ingredients nearby, heard the Anjanath's roar and immediately decided to add it to the menu.

　The enraged Anjanath instinctively leaped high into the air, intending to stomp the hunter to death. However, Bahari remained hidden on the side of the Anjanath's blind eye, preventing the Anjanath from accurately attacking him. Bahari finally noticed the strange red flying insects on the Anjanath's body and wondered if the Anjanath's berserk behavior was due to these insects.

　Just then, a white light suddenly appeared in the sky. Bahari thought that hunters had come to his aid and turned around happily, only to find a huge monster standing behind him.

　The Anjanath roared and charged at the World Lord with its single eye on it. The World Lord stood up and pounced forward, pinning the Anjanath to the ground. The violent force crushed the Anjanath's jawbone, instantly turning its head into a bloody mess. The World Lord also noticed the gnawing insects on the Anjanath's body. Without thinking, the World Lord kicked the Anjanath's corpse away, then raised its wing claws, and a thick, azure beam of light immediately engulfed the Anjanath's corpse, turning it to ashes.

　The food that was about to be eaten was gone just like that. The Lord of the World left in disappointment, while Bahari sat dejectedly on a rock nearby, and he was still in the same state when Fiolena led the investigation team to find him.

　In Elgardne, Bahari was telling Gareas and the others about what he had observed on the road. Flame was most familiar with the Lord of the World, so he gave Bahari a brief introduction.

　"Oh, the Lord of Reincarnation, it is the Lord of Reincarnation. It is so perfect. Mirror-like scales, sword-like scales that gleam with cold light, and twisted giant horns. I can even hear the beautiful pulsation of water droplets hitting it. It is just too perfect."

　"Sorry, Flame, this is how it's been since Bahari came back."

　Flame shook her head indifferently. She wouldn't treat monsters as women like Bahari did. However, what was troubling her now was the letter that Fukumo Rabbit, who came from Flamefire Village, had brought her a few days ago.

　The letter stated that a few nights ago, when Puxian passed by the gathering place after drinking at the tavern, he noticed Huoya and Shuiyun standing quietly by the river outside. Upon approaching, he discovered that Huoya and Shuiyun's hands were pressed together, their pupils gleaming with an unusual light. Puxian knew this meant the two sisters had entered a state of resonance. Then, Puxian heard Huoya and Shuiyun...

　Yun said something.

　"Where are my companions? I wish to meet them. My children and grandchildren will be everywhere on earth, their breaths like the wind, their voices like thunder."

　Based on the association with the elements of wind and thunder, and considering the resonance with Flame Sprout earlier, Puxian was certain that the Wind God Dragon had reappeared. Without hesitation, Puxian immediately reported the matter to the Hunter's Guild and the Dragon History Institute. After obtaining permission from both organizations, the Ancient Dragon Observatory and Flame Village dispatched hunters to search Flame Village. The Hunter's Guild also began to fully research the relevant information about the Wind God Dragon. As a member of Flame Village and someone who had once repelled the Wind God Dragon, Flame naturally received this letter as well.

　The letter stated that the Hunter's Guild had finally found the Wind God Dragon and another Elder Dragon, the Thunder God Dragon, in the ancient texts. The Thunder God Dragon was paired with the Wind God Dragon. According to the ancient texts, the Wind God Dragon and the Thunder God Dragon's breeding season was every fifty years, and now it was their breeding season. The Wind God Dragon had previously caused the Hundred Dragons Night Parade because it was looking for a mate, and this time they had found the Thunder God Dragon. At the same time, Puxian hoped that after finding the Thunder God Dragon, Lieyan could return to Yanhuo Village to prepare for the subjugation.

　Blazing Flame naturally agreed to this, and so he waited eagerly for a letter from Flamefire Village.

　After discussing the unknown flying insect, the group gathered in the tavern to talk about it. Coincidentally, the young girl and Lan Mei sat down next to them. The young girl hated the insect the most, so she didn't want to talk to them. Although Lucia and Fiorena found the young girl's expression a bit strange, they were also puzzled.

　After a hearty meal, Lieyan had just left the tavern when Ni Tai appeared beside him without warning. "Did the instructor find the Wind Dragon?"

　"Very clever, my beloved disciple. We received a notification from the Hunter's Guild that the Wind Dragon and Thunder Dragon have been discovered in the Dragon Palace Ancient City. Now is the most critical moment for Flamefire Village. We need you, Flamefire, to completely eliminate the Hundred Dragons Night Parade. For the sake of everyone in Flamefire Village, we must settle things with them."

　Upon hearing this news, Fiorena also wanted to go with Blaze. After all, she hadn't been able to help Flame Village fifty years ago, and now that she had this opportunity, Fiorena didn't want to give it up. After discussing it with Admiral Gareas, the three of them quickly returned to Flame Village.

　PS: First update!

　PS2: Athletes cannot eat pepper powder because it contains a stimulant called norcodone, which is banned by the World Anti-Doping Agency. Experts say that this component in pepper powder is known as a food-derived stimulant, which can increase an athlete's heart rate and make their heart muscle contract more forcefully. Actually, star anise and bay leaves, which we eat regularly, also contain similar components.

　Volume 1: Chapter 354 - The Beginning of the Hundred Dragons' Origin

　Thanks to the hunters' efforts, the trade route between Flamefire Village and Elgard has been secured. What used to take eight days by sea can now be completed in just three days.

　Upon entering Flamefire Village, Blaze was welcomed by everyone and then joined the village's intensive preparations. With the help of the fleet, various supplies, ammunition, and props were delivered to the vicinity of Dragon Palace Ancient City.

　According to their plan, they needed to disrupt the egg-laying of the Wind and Thunder Dragons, so their first task was to defeat the Wind Dragon.

　The Wind Dragon, also known as the Breath of Calamity, is an alternate name given to this ancient dragon. According to the Ancient Dragon Observatory's speculation, the Thunder Dragon should be laying eggs somewhere at this time. They need to defeat the Wind Dragon as soon as possible, so much so that even Blaze felt extremely tense.
