Red Dragon Monster Hunter Template.

…………

Thor, who had already flown far away, naturally couldn't hear the conversations of those young dragons, and even if he could, he probably wouldn't have paid them any mind.

His keen senses allowed him to notice those familiar auras as he passed through the oasis, but now the difference in strength between the two sides was vast, and he had no interest in making contact with them.

He just needs to kill that old dragon, then he'll capture them all and take them back as slaves.

Out of consideration for their past as companions, they were not required to fight each other to the death. The green dragons were to serve as serfs, the black dragons were to produce humus, the blue dragons were to regulate the climate, and the white dragons were to transport ice chains.

They are all talented individuals, and all of them are very useful!

…………

As he pondered, the vast, undulating desert and Gobi Desert appeared before Thor's eyes.

A series of rugged fortresses built of massive stones form a magnificent architectural complex. Dark clouds swirl in the sky, and the air is thick with the smell of ozone and static electricity.

Thor's molten gold pupils locked onto the largest fortress atop the mountains in an instant, and a ferocious grin spread across his face, revealing a silent, cold sneer.

His charge showed no sign of slowing down; instead, his broad wings began to flap faster, and raging flames exploded one after another beneath the wing membranes, propelling his body ever faster.

A deafening roar, like thunder, echoed far and wide as the crimson figure, like a shooting star from outer space, crashed down upon the fortress.

When Thor's body touched the static electricity permeating the air, a message was instantly transmitted, traveling through the open square and the massive archway, awakening the slumbering dragon shadow deep within the fortress.

Kalendak abruptly raised his head from the wide stone throne, and gold coins and various jewels tumbled down as he moved, hitting the ground with a crisp sound.

His dark golden pupils stared at the dome above, sensing a fierce aura, like a volcanic eruption, rapidly approaching.

"Who dares to invade my territory?!"

A thunderous roar erupted from his mouth, but what responded was a wild and unrestrained laugh.

"Hahaha! You old codger! I'm back to see you! It's been years, did you miss me?!"

Chapter 181 Battle

boom!!!

How could the hardness of rock withstand a body honed through countless trials? Thor, descending from the sky, showed no sign of slowing down and crashed straight into the dome of Blackrock Fortress.

A deafening roar erupted, instantly shattering a nearly half-meter-thick stone slab, sending tiny pebbles flying like bullets. Before the dust had even settled, a blinding bolt of lightning streaked straight towards Thor from the darkness.

"I knew you old bastard didn't have any martial ethics!"

Faced with the sneak attack from the blue dragon Kalendak, Thor merely sneered and suddenly spread his wings. The wing membranes, far wider and thicker than those of an ordinary red dragon, formed a giant shield in front of him.

Blue-white lightning breathed and licked the dark red, fine scales, and surging arcs of electricity leaped like serpents, traversing Thor's scales all over his body.

The powerful electric current not only did not cause him any damage, but it also seemed to be charging him, causing a dark glint to shine through the gaps in the scales on the outside of his limbs and back.

This is an electric storage shell derived from the Thunder Wolf Dragon monster template. Originally, it could only store weak current from Thunderbugs, but when it was applied to Thor and combined with his own conditions, it instantly produced a wonderful change.

It not only transformed from storing the weak current of lightning insects into being able to absorb and store lightning elements, but also, due to the transformative power of the ether crystal, was able to directly absorb external electric shocks.

Seeing that his breath attack was ineffective, Kalendak immediately tilted his head back and crushed the lightning bolt in his mouth. Amidst the exploding sparks, he stepped out of the darkness.

With a length of about 30 meters, it can be described as a behemoth, and every step it takes makes the ground rumble.

First, a snout with a huge horn pierced the darkness, followed by a ferocious head with dark gold pupils and wavy ear crowns.

His long, thick neck snaked out like a giant python, and his massive body was covered with indigo scales, the edges of which crackled with tiny electric sparks, as if a layer had been peeled off from the sky and sewn onto his body.

A massive static charge filled the air, and a ring of pale blue electric light suddenly erupted, filling the entire hall of the fortress.

He stared at the red dragon, which was significantly smaller than himself, and a look of solemnity and apprehension appeared on his face.

"Why has this unfamiliar red dragon invaded my territory?"

The older a dragon gets, the more stable its emotions become, and the more tolerant it becomes of the strong.

This is not because their tempers have improved, but because they have long since come to deeply understand the price that comes with fighting.

The red dragon before him was undoubtedly a powerful being of considerable stature, so Kalendak did not want to easily engage in a battle with him.

This would not only cause enormous damage to his territory, but he is also at a critical stage in his advancement to legendary status. If his injuries are too severe, it will definitely have a serious impact on his advancement.

Therefore, even after being provoked and humiliated, he still hoped to negotiate and get the other party to leave on their own.

However, these words, which seemed to show weakness, only earned Thor's cold laughter and mockery.

"Your territory? It seems the great Stormfang has forgotten that I am also a member of the clan! Shouldn't this be my territory?"

You've been in the leader's seat for too long, so long that you've become old and weak. Since the weather's nice today, why don't you give me your chair?

Burning flames enveloped Thor's body, surging upwards with the force of a raging inferno, within which flickering black lightning.

With each word he uttered, the aura of incineration surrounding him expanded, compressing the static field emanating from Kalendak and illuminating the dimly lit hall.

Most true dragons have excellent memories. As they grow older, their mental and intellectual abilities further improve, and they can remember everything they see.

Kalendak, however, did not recall having such a strange red dragon in his clan. In fact, he had only tamed four so far—a young female dragon and her three cubs.

Could he be the mate of that little female dragon? With such a powerful red dragon as her backer, why would she choose to rely on him?

Thoughts flashed through his mind, and Kalendak was momentarily confused. Feeling his patience was about to run out, he let out a low growl.

"I don't know what nonsense you're spouting. I'll say it one last time: this is my territory. If you know what's good for you, get out of here! Otherwise, I'll rip your head off!"

Flames spewed from Thor's mouth, and the scales on his body had turned as red-hot as irons due to the surging magic within him.

He came here with the intention of killing this old bastard, so naturally he didn't want to waste any more words.

With a powerful push from its strong limbs, bursts of flame erupted behind it, and before the other party could finish speaking, it had already rushed forward like a shooting star.

The blue dragon, who had been secretly on guard, was not caught off guard. Its larger size gave it confidence in melee combat. Facing the charging red dragon, it not only did not dodge or evade, but also charged forward.

The vast hall, which would make humans look up in awe, was only a fleeting distance for these two behemoths.

boom--! ! !

The next moment, the two enormous figures collided violently, the deafening roar shaking the air and creating tangible shockwaves.

This single collision made Kalendak immediately realize the enormous gap in skill.

This red dragon was clearly smaller, but its bones, muscles, and explosive power were all superior to his. This caused his body to involuntarily lean backward, a sharp pain shooting through his chest, almost causing him to lose control and fall to the ground.

Thor paused only slightly before sweeping his giant claws across the ground. His palm, far larger than that of a typical red dragon, contained an intense heat capable of incinerating everything, and slammed down on the base of Kalendak's left wing.

Broken blue scales flew everywhere, flesh rolled over, blood gushed out, and a deep wound instantly appeared.

Roar! ! !

The intense pain transformed into a thunderous roar, causing Kalendak to erupt with even more dazzling lightning. He nearly stood upright, launching a furious counterattack.

The rumbling collisions continued, and the raging flames and surging electricity expanded wildly, striking the stone walls and pillars of the hall.

A long, razor-sharp tail swept across, snapping a massive stone pillar that required several people to encircle in half; a terrifying breath was unleashed, instantly blasting open the dilapidated roof overhead.

In just a few minutes, the entire fortress was reduced to ruins in the battle between the two giant beasts.

Huge boulders rolled down the Gobi Desert, their roars and explosions echoing across the sky like thunder.

Hearing the commotion, the young dragon in the distant oasis flapped its wings and leaped into the air, curiously approaching the area.

The blue dragons living nearby were also alerted and are gathering here.

Chapter 182 Light of Destruction

Within Thor, the blood of the red dragon was boiling fiercely, and the ever-increasing temperature even surpassed that of the hottest magma.

With each movement, billowing waves of flame surged forth, splashing outwards. The burning sea of ​​fire expanded and surged around him, almost completely engulfing the entire fortress.

The stone walls had begun to melt, the towering pillars collapsed one by one, and the enormous throne was buried under the ruins, its gold and silver treasures long since melted into flowing molten gold.

Claw strikes, bites, tail blades, and sweeping wings in turn—these seemingly simple movements, combined with Thor's immense strength and superhuman reflexes, are like a surging torrent of destruction, enough to crush any enemy that stands in his way.

The deeper the battle went, the more horrified Kalendak became—this red dragon, which looked to be only recently grown up, was an absolute freak.

His strength and speed were beyond reason, and his thick scales were exceptionally tough. Even with my full-force attack, I could only tear a small wound on them, but my opponent could easily pierce through my scales.

In the brief exchange, large patches of Kalendak's blue scales were stained red with blood, while Thor only had some minor, insignificant wounds.

Seeing that he couldn't gain any advantage in close combat, Kalendak quickly opened his mouth, gathered a large amount of magic power, and spewed out a dazzling breath.

A column of lightning, like a celestial river pouring down, struck Thor squarely in the chest, while he himself, using the recoil, flapped his wings and soared into the air.

The surging lightning danced across Thor's scales, some of it being blocked by the powerful dragon energy, while the rest was absorbed by the electric shell on his body.

The constantly surging current had completely activated these protruding scale-like tissues, causing them to open like flower petals and spew out destructive electric light.

"Old man, is that all you've got? You've really disappointed me!!"

A deafening roar, like an explosion, erupted beneath Thor's feet, causing the already ravaged ground to collapse completely the moment he exerted his strength. With a wild roar, he relentlessly pursued the blue dragon.

"You little brat who doesn't understand what true power is, you will pay the price for your arrogance!!"

A flash of anger and ferocity crossed Kalendak's dark golden eyes as he uttered an ancient and solemn whisper. A blurry light flashed across his scales and shot out in all directions, revealing two more identical blue dragons in mid-air.

As a true dragon that naturally prefers to live in the desert, is accustomed to burying its body in the sand, and relies on illusions and mirages to lure and ambush passing caravans, the Blue Dragon is not only skilled in wind and lightning magic, but also has remarkable talent in sound waves and illusions.

At this moment, he was casting a spell called "True Illusion," which could create one or more phantoms that possessed some of his own abilities.

After controlling the two phantoms to block Thor's path, Kalendak began chanting loudly again.

Thor didn't even take the blue dragon's real body seriously, let alone a mere magically created clone.

Faced with the two phantoms rushing towards him, Thor took a deep breath, his basal vessels working at full capacity, and the elemental forces in the environment constantly converged on him.

His bulging chest pushed aside his scales, radiating a dazzling light, as if a sun were encased within his chest cavity. His throat began to swell, and his ferocious maw opened wide, unleashing a powerful blast forward.

Dark lightning flashed within the crimson-blue flames, the lightning fueling the fire and the fire amplifying the power of the lightning, like a surging river that instantly engulfed the two phantom figures.

The combination of high temperatures, lightning, and abundant dragon-attribute energy creates a destructive force powerful enough to crush all illusions.

The two enormous blue dragon phantoms were engulfed in flames and immediately let out helpless howls. Like pieces of paper that had been set on fire, they quickly disappeared into the air.

The fact that the phantom was dealt with so quickly startled Kalendak, but fortunately, this brief delay allowed him to complete the magic he had prepared.

A hazy flash of light shone again, and the world before Thor's eyes began to change and turn upside down. A biting cold wind swept in from the sky, and the desert beneath his feet turned into an endless glacier.

"You reckless fool, indulging in your fantasies until you die!"

Kalendak's voice came from nowhere, echoing throughout the sky, its location impossible to pinpoint.

Thor tried to use echolocation, but found that even his hearing was interfered with, and he could only hear a lot of loud noise.

As expected! Apart from those white dragons that seem to have no brains, none of the true dragons that can live to adulthood are easy to deal with.

Those blue, green, and black creatures, while unable to compare with the red dragon in terms of bloodline abilities, are precisely because of this that they are more proactive in seeking magical power, and their methods are more unpredictable and varied.

Thor wasn't averse to magic and was happy to learn and accept it, but he was ultimately too young and didn't have enough time to study it thoroughly, which was a disadvantage due to his age.

But that doesn’t mean he’s helpless. It’s just an illusion. If he can’t find a loophole, he’ll break it with force!

A dazzling flash shone from his mouth again, this time transforming into a thick beam of light that shot out.

The surface of the orange-red and blue-tinged heat rays was interwoven with jet-black lightning, like a giant sword in the hand of a god, wildly wielded in Thor's mouth.

The biting wind was sliced ​​in two, endless glaciers collapsed and melted, and even the sky was quickly torn open, revealing the dark clouds outside.

The enormous blue dragon coiled in the clouds, intertwining with the winding lightning, as if performing some kind of eerie dance.

The sky was filled with rapidly spinning dark clouds, stretching downwards like a funnel, while blue and white lightning crackled across the blue dragon's sail-like wings, converging towards its single horn overhead.

The air within a radius of thousands of meters was ionized and vibrated with a buzzing sound, sand and gravel floated into the air, the hair of the orcs rushing from afar stood on end, and even the light was distorted into a blue-purple color.

"hold head high--!!"

A loud roar suddenly rang out, and Kalendak's dark golden dragon eyes looked down at Thor, issuing a declaration that sounded like a judgment.

"Feel the power of lightning!!"

Boom! ...

The moment the words fell, the sky cracked open, and a massive, azure lightning bolt, several meters thick and piercing the heavens and earth, was forcibly torn from the dark clouds by Kalendak, crashing down on Thor like a spear hurled by a giant god.
