Chapter 110: The Spiny Dragon and the Male Fire Dragon’s Unavoidable Stories
The spiny dragon moved slowly forward, while the hunter stealthily followed from the shadows, observing secretly.
The hunter probably didn’t expect that while he was spying on the spiny dragon, he was also being observed by it.
Jié Jié used his peripheral vision, just occasionally glancing once in a while.
Before falling asleep, he was quite looking forward to being woken up by a strike.
His expectations were dashed, but Jie Jie wasn’t disappointed either.
Thus, one dragon and two humans proceeded forward as if strangers, yet they were actually kindred spirits.
After watching for a few moments, everything returned to the daily life of the spiny dragon.
There were just two more creepy stalkers following around, and these two lacked ambition. Even if they were led to an isolated corner, they wouldn’t do anything.
“Sigh.”
Jie Jie sighed helplessly. Without expectations, there would be no disappointment.
Where was the herbivore dragon? Where was the gas frog?
Following his usual habits, Jie Jie strolled onto the plain turned swamp, glanced around, saw no herbivore dragons, and began walking along the coast.
Away from the forest, the originally dry gravel beach became muddy after days of heavy rain.
This heavy rain seemed not entirely bad?
In this area where gas frogs already existed, more gas frogs emerged from their nests and were active in the rain.
A twenty-meter giant tank slowed its steps and entered a stealth state.
Why not use fireballs to kill the gas frogs?
Apart from fitting the recipe’s delicacy, the true energy-rich part of the gas frogs is the gas they produce. It’s precisely this gas that allows the spiny dragon’s venom gland to produce paralyzing toxins.
In this world, the traits of monsters often correlate with their diet. For example, the tengu beasts living in coniferous highlands no longer eat persimmons but flammable large pine cones, thus evolving into a subspecies named Scarlet Tengu Beast.
By now, the spiny dragon had stealthily approached behind the gas frogs. These static-sighted amphibians might still consider him part of the environment.
As the environment changed rapidly, the gas frogs entered the dark abyss.
“The same diet as the spiny dragons from the original continent; apart from size, there hasn’t been any evolution due to regional differences.”
The team leader muttered. Before setting out, he and several clerical staff had cross-checked the habits of the spiny dragon and the slaying dragon.
“The hunting habit is the same too; the spiny dragon’s famous full-body strike.”
Focusing on solving prey in one blow, not giving them time to catch their breath or escape.
Meanwhile, the other gas frogs were startled by the sudden environmental changes but only jumped further away without retreating underground.
This allowed Jie Jie to continue stalking and hunting them.
Four paralyzed gas frogs, two highly toxic ones—this was his harvest over the past hour.
And during this hour, the two people hiding in the bushes hadn’t even moved positions, just watching him hunt gas frogs for over an hour.
After eating the gas frogs, Jie Jie climbed up the hill to the hillock and entered the spiny dragon’s daily sleep.
“Sleeping again, huh.”
The team leader watched the monster that slept wherever it went and couldn’t help but admire it.
Just as he and Eru stepped out of the woods, a red figure flew from afar in the sky.
The blonde man pulled his partner back into the woods and began observing the situation.
It was a fire dragon in the sky, a somewhat small fire dragon, seemingly at the juvenile stage?
Would it provoke the spiny dragon below?
The team leader tightly gripped his fists nervously, both expecting and observing the descending fire dragon.
It wasn’t surprising to see fire dragons on the new continent. Their outstanding flying abilities allowed them to live and rest all over the world.
As they descended, they could see more details of the fire dragon.
This fire dragon was about eleven meters long, with very few scars on its shell, indeed a juvenile fire dragon, a future sky dominator with great potential.
At this stage, the fire dragon barely reached the threshold of large creatures. Facing many predators, it should be quite cautious and shouldn’t approach larger monsters than itself.
They are okay against terrestrial creatures, but when faced with flying dragons larger than themselves, they always hide to avoid premature death and won’t appear in lush hunting grounds.
The descending fire dragon made no aggressive moves toward the spiny dragon, at least he didn’t think that level of collision counted as an aggressive move.
The newly sleeping spiny dragon seemed not to have entered deep sleep, waking up easily from the impact.
The awakened spiny dragon looked at the fire dragon, flapped its wings, and stood up.
The team leader noticed the male fire dragon placing its head under the spiny dragon’s skull, like some sort of ingratiating gesture.
And the spiny dragon also lowered its head, gently rubbing cheeks with the male fire dragon.
??????The team leader was confused, very confused.
Regardless of whether these two dragons of different sizes were the same species, their sizes were different!
Not to mention age as well!
Unfathomable knowledge began to flood this muscular man’s brain.
He was an adult who had seen some widely circulated female fire dragon picture books.
The queen of land and electric dragons, horned dragons, and even black wolf birds—all favorites of lively and improper old dragon men.
But the spiny dragon—
With green shells, a flying dragon species, the spiny dragon indeed resembled a female fire dragon.
The blonde man stroked his chin, seriously pondering, then exchanged glances with his companion.
Winking mischievously.
“Meow!”
The mountain cat punched the team leader’s arm, rotating his wrist instead.
“Well, I know those picture books I read are fictional, but what we’re seeing here, the young male fire dragon and this spiny dragon, there really seems to be some warmth between them.”
The team leader chuckled aimlessly, calmed down, and began seriously thinking about the current situation.
The spiny dragon was gently patting the fire dragon with its wings.
He started moving. Come to think of it, he hadn’t confirmed the gender of this spiny dragon yet.
Unfortunately, no matter how he changed positions, the spiny dragon’s reproductive tract was either covered by its tail or legs, making it unclear.
The reproductive tracts of monsters are inherently difficult to determine gender from.
“Since that’s the case, let’s assume this spiny dragon is female for now.”
“You think it’s possible that a fire dragon egg got mixed up by scratcher birds or something similar and ended up in the spiny dragon’s nest?”
“Did the spiny dragon mistake the fire dragon for its own offspring?”
The team leader stroked his chin, pondering repeatedly, and could only come up with this possibility.
“Meow~”
The mountain cat watched the affectionate interaction between the flying dragons and casually agreed.
In a sense, he was right.
The fire dragon’s egg did end up in Jie Jie’s nest due to certain factors, and even the fire dragon’s nest became his home.
