Red Dragon Monster Hunter Template.

Thor glanced at the two foolish young dragons, offering no explanation, and simply gave a cold command:

"Eat the fragments, now! Right now! Don't make me use my claws."

We can't be stingy now; we must always maintain plenty of energy to deal with any unexpected events.

Seeing the two fledglings doing as he was told with pained expressions, Thor turned his attention back to the huge spinning wheel in his mind. He turned 5 points of mental energy into starlight and cast it onto the outermost wheel.

To enhance strength, various biological templates are undoubtedly the best choice.

However, environmental organisms, as the name suggests, although they may have some unique abilities, are certainly not "powerful".

Even the lowest-level monster requires 100 essence points to draw from once. Relying solely on the emotions provided by two hatchlings, it's uncertain how long it would take to accumulate enough.

Why not just throw your bet on the outermost wheel and see if you can pick something from all that clutter that can turn things around?

Five beams of light flashed like neon across thousands of small square grids before stopping.

Below Thor's line of sight, pale blue subtitles appeared:

Congratulations! You have drawn the following items: [Needle Grass Fruit], [Big Bucket], [Golden Dragonfish Scale], [Sticky Grass], and [Burning Coal]. Do you wish to withdraw your winnings immediately? Yes/No.

Saul began to recall information about the items in his mind.

The needlegrass fruit is a peculiar fruit with oval-shaped pods filled with fine, needle-like seeds. These seeds are as hard as iron and extremely sharp, even capable of being used as shotgun pellets.

A large explosive barrel is a brown wooden barrel about half a person's height, filled with high-explosive powder, and equipped with an ignition device at the top. It can be detonated by ignition or violent impact, easily shattering huge rocks.

The scales of the golden arowana, as the name suggests, are the scales of a fish called the golden arowana, and are considered valuable decorative items.

Sticky grass is a succulent plant with a sap that is as sticky as glue.

Coal is a super fuel; it is said that burning it releases more than 20 times the energy of ordinary coal.

Thor chose to withdraw the money, and the air immediately rippled like water.

Seven or eight nuts the size of ping-pong balls, a wooden bucket half the height of a person, golden scales the size of a child's palm, a green plant more than half a meter tall with oval leaves, and a piece of pitch-black coal the size of a football appeared out of thin air before my eyes.

Looking at these items, he almost wondered if he was truly blessed by the Dragon God.

A bold idea then came to mind.

Chapter Fourteen Counterattack

"You two idiots, get over here and get ready to work!"

Sistana, mash this plant into a paste, don't let a single drop of juice escape!

"Calp, go and collect some pebbles, the more the better!"

The two baby dragons, who had just rested for a short while, reluctantly crawled over.

Their gaze swept over the suddenly appearing objects, then fixed intently on the golden dragonfish scale.

"This is gold, isn't it? It must be gold, right?"

"Damn Thor, how much treasure have you hidden away? And where did you get all this stuff from?"

Thor glanced down at them, his tone full of disdain.

"This is none of your business. With your lowly bloodline, you'll never learn noble summoning magic in your entire lives."

The contemptuous tone immediately ignited the anger of Sistana and Calp, who couldn't help but retort.

"We were born of the same mother, and we share the same blood!"

"I've never heard of any summoning magic. You must be lying!"

Thor rolled his eyes, his tone unchanged.

"Never heard of it, which just proves your bloodline is inferior. If we really had the same blood, why would I be bigger and stronger?"

Sistana and Kalp gritted their teeth at the mere mention of this.

"You shameless thing..."

"If it weren't for the fact that they stole our eggshells when we were born..."

"shut up!"

Thor raised his forelegs and punched his two foolish younger brothers and sisters twice, interrupting them.

"Don't talk back to your great brother! Now, right now! Get to work!"

The two baby dragons covered their heads, their eyes wide with resentment, but they dared not argue any further and could only follow Thor's orders.

However, seeing the "Increased Mental Essence" notification flashing in his eyes from time to time, Thor knew that these two were definitely cursing him in their hearts, and a smug smile appeared on his face.

He picked up the seven or eight needle-like fruits from the ground, stuffed them into his mouth, and bit down hard with his large molars.

With a crisp cracking sound, the shell on the surface of the needle fruit splits open instantly, revealing seeds as thin as steel needles inside.

In no time, he had bitten open all the needle-like fruits and collected the seeds inside, which numbered over a hundred.

By this time, Sistana had almost squeezed out the juice from the sticky grass. Because she was too rough, she got it all over her body, making her look like she was covered in slime, which was disgusting.

Thor gave her a disdainful look, stopped her from approaching, and pointed to the large exploding barrel next to him, indicating that she should apply the slime to it.

Once the entire brown barrel was covered in slime, Thor began to stick on it the needle fruit seeds he had just collected, the crushed charcoal, and the pebbles that Kalp had picked up.

In just a short while, the entire explosion barrel was transformed.

Thor looked at the messy pile of stones in front of him, and a look of satisfaction appeared in his eyes.

No matter how hard those centaurs racked their brains, they probably would never have imagined that there was a bomb hidden under the pile of stones.

These four-legged bastards, who had spent their entire lives on the ground, were now allowed to fly by his mercy.

But figuring out how to guide them to the right place is a problem.

If one were to use oneself as bait and get too close, it could be life-threatening, since centaurs' bows and arrows are no joke. As a nomadic people, they are almost as skilled as elves at archery.

However, if they are too far away, and the timing of the detonation of the large explosive barrel is not accurate, it may be too early or too late, thus failing to unleash its full power.

Just as I was pondering this, a crisp tapping sound suddenly came from afar, gradually growing louder.

The familiar sound made Thor realize instantly: centaurs were approaching.

The horseshoes nailed to their hooves, while greatly reducing hoof wear and increasing grip, also make a loud noise when they collide with the ground, so it's a trade-off.

With his keen hearing, Thor could tell that there weren't many centaurs approaching.

This made him narrow his eyes slightly. Instead of running away immediately, he winked at the two baby dragons, then crouched down and moved towards the direction from which the sound came.

Sistana and Culp exchanged a glance, and ultimately decided to follow Thor.

The three fledgling dragons were like large snakes roaming the wasteland. The elastic pads on their feet made them land silently, and they quickly approached the source of the sound.

Even from a distance of over a thousand meters, Thor could clearly see the three centaurs approaching, thanks to his excellent dark vision.

One brown, one yellow, and one black horse carried a nearly naked male body, with clearly defined muscles that seemed to gleam with oil.

'Did these bastards split up to expand their search area? They really look down on us!'

To prevent the faint light flickering in the pale golden dragon's eyes from leaking out, two semi-transparent nictitating membranes were placed over the eyes of the three baby dragons.

In addition to the eyelids, each true dragon's eyes have three layers of nictitating membranes.

The innermost layer is completely transparent, used to block water and air from irritating the eyeballs; the outer two layers are semi-transparent, used to adjust the brightness and color of the pupils.

The three centaurs were completely unaware that they had been targeted by the young dragons, and continued to converse in a relaxed tone.

It wasn't that they underestimated these three fledgling dragons, but rather that true dragons of this age, whether in terms of magical abilities or physical organs, were not yet fully developed, and their challenge level was generally only around 3.

If it's the weakest white dragon, the challenge level at this point is only 2, which is not even as good as an ordinary adult centaur.

As elite centaur rangers, their challenge level reached 4, and three of them together were more than capable of dealing with three young dragons.

…………

Thor glanced at the giant wheel in his mind, and sure enough, the small squares containing the items he had drawn earlier were still lit up.

He focused his attention on the burning coals, displaying a bit of spiritual energy that could be exchanged for nearly ten kilograms, so he clicked to exchange without hesitation.

This coal was significantly heavier than ordinary coal. Ripples like water flashed by, and a piece of black, irregularly shaped coal, smaller than the previous one, appeared before Thor.

He stretched out his claws, grabbed it, and opened his mouth wide to bite it.

Although this thing was heavy, it wasn't too hard. The hard dragon teeth easily bit off a lot of fragments and began to chew them.

He quickly ate more than 5 kilograms of coal, and handed the remaining half to Sistana and Kalp.

Red dragons sometimes eat sulfur and flammable minerals to temporarily enhance the power of their breath.

Even though the three hatchlings' breath weapons are not yet fully developed, they can still unleash considerable power with the help of this super fuel.

Just as the two baby dragons were gnawing away at the burning coals, the burning coals in Thor's stomach had already begun to digest.

A large amount of heat energy was released as a warm current, making him feel as if there was a high-temperature furnace inside his stomach.

His already high body temperature began to rise, his crimson scales gradually began to gleam, his blood was surging rapidly, and an orange-red light flashed at his throat.

A burning, throbbing, and stinging sensation.

As a red dragon, Thor actually felt a burning pain.

The bloating sensation from within made him desperately want to vent, so he immediately pushed off the ground with all four limbs and charged towards the three centaurs.

Chapter Fifteen: Trap

A blazing flame ripped through the silent wilderness, carrying a wave of heat that seemed to ignite even the tall grass growing nearby.

Three battle-hardened centaur warriors instantly noticed the unusual commotion.

Two of them immediately raised their hands and drew back their longbows, while the other gripped his spear tightly, assuming a vigilant and ready stance.

A strong sense of crisis came from Thor's chest and shoulders, turning into a faint stinging pain.

The pupils of a true dragon not only possess sharp vision like that of an eagle, but also keen dynamic vision like that of a chameleon or a frog.

Just as the two arrows left the bowstring, he suddenly twisted his foot, causing his entire body to turn into an irregular zigzag line, cleverly avoiding them.

Thor, who was originally charging straight ahead, began to change direction constantly, tracing semi-circular trajectories left and right around the three centaurs.

The lower body structure of centaurs gives them a significant advantage when running in a straight line, but makes it difficult for them to make agile turns.

Therefore, experienced herders usually stand on the side of the cattle and horses, which is the safest position.

"Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh!" The sound of air being cut rang out one after another. The heavy longbows were being fired at a rapid pace as if they were light hunting bows in the hands of the two strong centaurs.

Thick, heavy arrows grazed Thor's body as they struck the ground, some even grazing his crimson scales, sparks flying and leaving clear streaks of blood.

But he ultimately managed to force his way to the three centaurs with his extremely agile movements.

From a distance of nearly 10 meters, Thor suddenly took a deep breath, his chest and abdomen bulging, and then forcefully exhaled.

The true dragon's breath does not rely on the lungs for power, but is a special behavior similar to vomiting.

Each time he exhales, all the magic power in his body gathers in the upper stomach area through the basal blood vessels, and then is expelled outward through the strong squeezing of the muscles and the sudden release of magic power.

At this moment, all of Thor's remaining magic power was channeled into his upper stomach, and together with the high temperature generated during the digestion of burning coals and the undigested coal dust, it gushed out.

In an instant, a blazing fire shone from his thick throat, and sparks flew from his open mouth, which then turned into raging flames.

The orange-red river of flames surged toward the three centaurs. At first, it was just a thin wisp less than a foot long, but when it reached them, it had transformed into a huge fan with a diameter of more than three meters.

The three centaurs never expected that a fledgling dragon, which was only a little over three meters long, could exhale such a terrifying breath, so they never even considered dodging.

They only had time to raise their hands to protect their vulnerable eyes before their entire bodies were completely engulfed in flames.

The hair on his body was instantly ignited by the high temperature, and blisters quickly appeared on his bare skin. The bowstring in his hand exploded under the high temperature with a crisp "snap," followed by an extremely shrill scream.

At this point, Thor's condition was also far from optimistic.

The violent vomiting caused him to feel a sharp pain from his stomach to his throat, accompanied by a strong feeling of being pulled away.

The violent exhalation lasted only a few seconds before his body could no longer continue, and he had to stop, coughing forcefully a few times.
