Chapter 294: The Preset Castration of the Four-Winged Bone Fire Dragon.
“Truly terrifying.”
Seeing the pillar-like fireball explode into fiery waves, everyone couldn’t help but exclaim in admiration.
If it were to land on the flying airship, the explosion’s power would surely rip the airship apart into burning wooden planks.
The captain showed no signs of slacking off, and the airship became slightly turbulent as it accelerated and turned.
“Isn’t this dragon bigger than the one that appeared in the New Continent?”
The dark-skinned bald youth remarked, while the Compiler shared his Compiler’s Book with them, also sharing the natural landscapes of the New Continent.
“Indeed. It seems the unknowns of the Original Continent are no less than those of the New Continent.”
The Compiler observed the fire dragon through a telescope, harboring doubts, but unfortunately, the flapping wings were too unclear to see.
“Senior, do you plan to set out again with the Phase Two team?”
“I’m not quite sure. I intend to go home first and take a look.”
He hesitated slightly and shook his head.
The bald youth shrugged, realizing that the Compiler might not set sail with them.
After several years, meeting family again might rob him of the courage to set sail once more.
He gazed at the direction they came from, Naguli Village, and Loke Clark, wondering how many years he would be away from his hometown and country.
On the other side,
An invisible wind coiled around Jié Jié’s body, and once again, flames searing his mouth accumulated inside, waiting for the Blue-Electric Dragon to come close for an attack.
The increasingly approaching Blue-Electric Dragon sensed something amiss; its thin wings trembled as it climbed higher, its tail’s pincer structure swinging along.
But the fire dragon flipped its body, the red glow in its mouth locking onto the electric dragon’s body. Claws clashed with the tail pincers, connecting their centers of gravity and electrical currents together.
Jié Jié twisted his wings and flapped, claws gripping the electric dragon’s tail, enduring the current as he swung it downward.
“Grunt!”
As the Blue-Electric Dragon was thrown down, the flames stored in its mouth exploded between the two dragons, engulfing their figures.
The battered Blue-Electric Dragon plummeted downward from the flames, its torn wing membranes only able to reduce its descent speed, unable to lift it back into the air.
“Er!”
It roared towards the airborne fire dragon on the ground, unlike the fire dragon mockingly called “ground chicken,” the Blue-Electric Dragon also possessed superior combat skills on the flat terrain.
Jié Jié flapped his wings and landed, scanning his surroundings. The female fire dragon had long fled while the Blue-Electric Dragon was distracted by him, and the airborne flying airship had completed its turn and started a rapid retreat.
He stared at the Blue-Electric Dragon, finding no other expressions in its ferocious eyes.
Electric dragons are often solitary and irritable, which is often attributed to their even more tragic childhoods compared to the Sui Long.
Adult electric dragons usually meet during the breeding season, mate briefly, then scatter, laying eggs indiscriminately like defecation, and leaving the immobile eggs to face pressure from temperature and monsters.
Even if the eggs successfully hatch naturally, the young electric dragons, without protection from relatives, stumble about without any education and enter the world of survival of the fittest.
While the Sui Long has a Spartan start, the Electric Dragon starts in the toilet, whereas the Terror Tyrant at least hides its offspring in secluded places.
This makes every electric dragon that survives to adulthood incredibly powerful, cultivating a misanthropic and ferocious personality.
Regardless, the electric light shattered the voltage armor, and the Blue-Electric Dragon perhaps harbored strong suicidal tendencies.
Carrying this strong suicidal tendency, it leaped toward Jié Jié, the crown horns extending long electric blades in the air, delivering a vertical slash with its descending head.
The New Year sword technique.
A pillar of fire also erupted from Jié Jié’s mouth, swinging his head to unleash a horizontal slash.
The Blue-Electric Dragon was thrown backward, rising up, shaking its broken wing membranes, flapping its wings, and launching several super electromagnetic spheres.
The super electromagnetic spheres skimmed the ground toward Jié Jié but were directly detonated by the consecutive breath weapons after the fire dragon jumped, followed by a dive pressing onto the Blue-Electric Dragon’s body.
The Blue-Electric Dragon’s body collapsed under the heavy pressure, but the blue current on its body continued to rage upward unstably, preventing Jié Jié from accumulating another fireball, forcing him to release a wave of fire prematurely.
The rise in temperature caused the voltage armor of the electric dragon to heat up, resulting in unstable explosions of the current within.
The broken voltage armor was easily torn open, the flesh beneath bleeding profusely under the claws of the fire dragon. Jié Jié lowered his neck and bit into its nape, the current instantly surging from his tongue throughout his entire body.
Releasing his claws and teeth, Jié Jié flapped his wings and flew up again, breaking free from the electric light. His claws stomped down once more, forcefully grounding the Blue-Electric Dragon’s head into the ground.
The electric light paused momentarily, the lightning blade reappeared, rushing straight toward the fire dragon’s chest, but the final counterattack could not reverse the defeat.
Its crown and head were torn off, and the Blue-Electric Dragon thus perished.
“The Male Fire Dragon won, one, two, three… four, no!”
“What’s wrong?”
The bald youth asked curiously, squinting his eyes to look at the fire dragon pouncing on the electric dragon below, unable to see clearly.
“That fire dragon has four wing bones.”
“Don’t fire dragons only have three wing bones?”
“Only fire dragons from the New Continent have four wing bones. I was just thinking about the unknowns of the Original Continent, but didn’t expect this fire dragon to actually come from the New Continent.”
Previously, it wasn’t clear during the battle, but now, with the male fire dragon feeding on the electric dragon, he could finally count the number of wing bones.
“After arriving at Dongduoluma, I must pass on this information so everyone pays attention to the number of fire dragon wing bones.”
“Do you have any thoughts?”
“Returning all the way to the New Continent, I always feel like the monsters from the New Continent are following us to the Old Continent. If the number of four-wing-boned fire dragons increases later, it could mean a mass migration of fire dragons from the New Continent, possibly indicating some abnormal situation there.”
The Compiler put down the telescope, allowing the image of the male fire dragon to become blurry in his line of sight.
In the past, whether in biology class or field investigations, fire dragons always had three wing bones. A male fire dragon with four wing bones entering the Original Continent would inevitably crowd out the native male fire dragons with three wing bones.
Observations in the New Continent always judged four-wing-bone fire dragons to be stronger than three-wing-bone ones.
It is still unclear whether fire dragons from the old and new continents can normally mate, but assuming four-wing-bone fire dragons gain long-term dominance in mating rights, the original continent fire dragons will gradually be replaced by four-wing-bone fire dragons, or worse, fusion of two different genes may lead to even worse outcomes.
Apart from the investigation commissions for Spiny Dragons, Water Ancient Dragons, Unknown Flying Dragons, and two Unknown Ancient Dragons, the commission for hunting four-wing-bone fire dragons must also be brought to the guild’s attention and scheduled accordingly.
For four-wing-bone fire dragons, it’s best to capture and establish long-term observations as much as possible, performing castrations if anything goes wrong!
