when!

Sparks flew, and a few drops of purple venom landed on the hot surface of the back shell, gradually vaporizing.

The hardness of the Nerggen Dragon's head shell was far beyond the imagination of the sword master, so an unexpected flick of the knife occurred.

But after taking only one step back, the swordsman who was leaning back quickly stood up and assumed a sword-holding stance.

Just as the two sides were confronting each other and preparing to start the second round of the contest, the back of the Molten Mountain Dragon suddenly tilted backwards.

Snap! Snap!

The restrained arrows embedded in the back shell were falling off one by one.

The two forepaws, like giant pillars of the Lava Dragon, were lifted off the canyon floor.

"The Molten Mountain Dragon is about to stand and march! Evacuate quickly!"

Li Fan immediately gave a reminder.

Once Laoshanosaurus completes its standing, the entire back shell angle will be close to vertical.

The front part of the back shell smashes scattered rocks, and a large number of rocks will also roll backward.

Ouch!

Before Aiden and the sword master could respond, Nergigante roared first.

Then he put his head into the hole made by his front paws and picked up the fragment of the steel dragon's horn.

Huh~huh~

As its wings flapped, the Nergigante slowly rose into the sky.

Ouch! The figure moved away, and a roar echoed in the canyon.

Its meaning in Li Fan's ears is, wait for me.

At this time, Eudora flew over and threw out worm threads.

Li Fan grabbed the insect silk, Aiden kept Li Fan's thigh, and the swordsman master grabbed Aiden's ankle.

The four people quickly evacuated from the steaming back shell.

By the time the Lava Mountain Dragon finished standing and still kept the embedded restraining arrows, only the four on its hind legs were left, and the restraining effect had been reduced to a minimum.

Bang! Bang! Bang!

He stepped forward with heavy steps, and the wooden city wall built urgently for the capture operation was touched by the Lava Mountain Dragon. It collapsed on the spot, and the only remaining restraining arrows were also thrown off.

After watching Laoshan Dragon go away, the swordsman on the side wall rubbed his wrist and said with emotion: "Is it because of my age? I feel like my skills have deteriorated."

"It's already very impressive."

Aiden praised.

"I heard that there was a hunter from the fifth phase of the group who made more than a dozen commission contracts in one go in order to make Thunder Dragon equipment. Could it be you?"

The swordsman master asked tentatively.

"Haha, yes, it's me."

"Well, you are a very energetic new force. I look forward to your future performance."

The swordsman master gave his approval.

The Laoshan Dragon capture plan undoubtedly failed.

But the related aftermath work must continue.

Commander-in-Chief Frye summoned everyone, issued various tasks, and decided to rush back to the Star Stronghold overnight to prepare for the next operation.

Material recovery, wounded treatment and transport, and collection of traces left behind.

The canyon soon became busy again.

After hearing the next deployment, the team returned to the Flame.

"Li Fan, did your plan to guide the Nergigante succeed?"

Eudora asked tentatively.

"Oh it worked."

Li Fan first sighed melancholy, and then gave an answer.

"So now that Nergigante has gone to find the Steel Dragon, Huihui won't be in danger?"

Dilu said in surprise.

"Oh yes."

"Well, why do you sigh every time before you speak? Did you encounter something difficult?"

Eudora asked curiously.

In fact, many people know that the Laoshan Dragon capture plan will fail, but this opportunity is too rare.

So Eudora didn't think that Li Fan would be worried about this matter.

"Oh no, I went to rest. Dilu remembered to wake me up during dinner."

"Okay meow."

Dilu responded.

Li Fan entered the cabin bedroom, took off his Thunder Dragon Armor, and left the left gauntlet with a hole through it alone.

Lying on the bed, unable to fall asleep for a long time, I thought about the cause of the Nergigante's strange behavior.

Nergigante reproduces asexually, and each thorn that can continue to proliferate after leaving its body may become a new embryo.

Of course, this probability is very low, otherwise the investigation team that has been in the New World for forty years would not have only a few sightings.

Perhaps the formation of the embryo is itself a form of mutation.

If we master this mutation method, will we be able to produce Nergigantes?

No, if we really do this, the ecology cannot sustain it.

Li Fan knew very well that the ecological damage caused by the Nergigante on its own, although very limited, could once it started hunting other ancient dragons.

The chain reaction caused is simply not something that the ecology can bear. If it occurs in large numbers, the local ecology will soon collapse.

Since the formation of embryos is extremely rare, there is a high probability that even Nergigante himself does not know whether the thorn's reproduction was successful.

What's even more outrageous is that reproductive behavior is also linked to attack methods.

There is no habit of raising cubs, and the population is very small, so it should be relatively rare in terms of racial inheritance.

This is somewhat similar to the behavior of the electric dragon, except that the electric dragon will leave it alone after laying eggs.

And Nergigante simply couldn't tell which of his spines could successfully proliferate into an embryo.

As for whether it is possible to identify one's own children, we cannot yet make a judgment based on the information collected so far.

After thinking for a period of time, Li Fan roughly figured out the cause of this Nergigante's cognitive abnormality.

Because the ethnic heritage is weak and there is no cultivation, Nergigante grows up alone to adulthood in various wild ways.

Therefore, there are all kinds of strange differences in our understanding of the world.

Just like Xixi, if you eat the corpse of a water beast that fell from the top of the Babel Tower, you will think that it is feeding you.

As a result, he developed feelings for Hui Hui that transcended ethnic groups, and also overcame his fear of dragon attributes.

Li Fan speculated that a similar thing had happened to Miezi, which caused serious deviations in his cognition.

The other party seems to stubbornly believe that as long as they have similar abilities, they can form a partner.

The cause has probably been clarified, but Li Fan still has no idea how to eliminate the misunderstanding.

"Hey, don't mess with me. This kind of thing will really kill someone."

After sighing, tired Li Fan fell asleep.

"It's dinner time, wake up, meow!"

Di Lu's shout rang in his ears. As soon as Li Fan opened his eyes, he saw that the sky outside the porthole window was already dark, so he got up and came to the deck.

Eudora Aibo was sitting in front of the dining table, discussing food-related topics, and she was talking very enthusiastically.

"Li Fan, wake up. I have a new theory about Laoshan Dragon."

Ai Bo told excitedly.

"Say it."

"Didn't you suggest me to investigate based on age? Through the observations during this battle, I speculated that this lava dragon may be in its twilight years and is about to die."

Ai Bo expressed his speculation.

"What's the reason?"

"In terms of its posture when moving, through my observation, when the Lava Mountain Dragon completed its standing state, all the restraining arrows embedded in it were broken free, and the wooden city wall was easily broken through. This shows that it has the ability to pass through obstacles, but
To be continued...
