Soshiyan also discussed with Doral the issue of Ada's conception of fertility. Doral also held the same view. Due to their path, the people of Ark have an unusual persistence in self-achievement.
The road did give Ada a positive career and self-development opportunity, but it also isolated Ada's individuals from each other, which further led to the people of the Ark to have an almost harsh requirement for reproduction, and even
Some Arks have evolved some less humane so-called "genetically adapted marriage" systems, while the barbarian people seem to have relatively primitive systems, but this primitiveness has also formed the concept of unity and family-centeredness, and
Reproducing offspring is regarded as a responsibility to the clan. To use Doral's original words, it is better to be backward than to be backward. At least there are not so many pretentious things. You have to think twice about having a child.
If it weren't for various wars and disasters, and a virgin world was allowed to develop quietly, the reproduction rate of the feral Ada on it would far exceed that of all other craft worlds. After all, the initial colonists of most virgin worlds were only a few hundred or thousands of people.
, and now most of the virgin world population is in the 100,000 level, which is closely related to their family outlook and world view.
Soshyan's view is relatively simple. Compared with the people of the Ark, he feels that the barbarian people are more suitable to be "soldiers" because their concepts are simpler and easier to shape.
The point is, there are more people.
"Your Highness, these are my two daughters, Charlie and Kay, and this is my son, Cunobrul."
Soshyan nodded and said nothing because his attention was attracted by the things on the land bridge.
Even at high altitude, he could feel the tremors in the air. On the horizon, something was getting closer and closer, looming in the sky, like moving gray mountains.
Then a long roar echoed through the sky.
Even the well-informed Doral exclaimed in exclamation.
"Mountain dragon, I didn't expect that the Kingdom of Linnaeus actually has a mountain dragon..."
Soshyan had never realized that natural creatures could grow to such a size. When the two giant beasts, one behind the other, raised their long necks and let out a roar with an ancient atmosphere from their oval heads, he estimated that
This thing is probably taller than the War Titan!
These huge creatures have eight legs, each of which is extremely thick. When you step on the land bridge, you can see the air waves rising. The weight of the entire body is balanced by a tail that is as long as its own body. If the length of the tail is included in the calculation, this thing is probably not as long as the body.
It is over a hundred meters, and based on its thick body, Soshyan really can't believe how these creatures can stand up? Rudimentary biological knowledge told him that the size of land creatures often has a limit due to the gravity of the planet.
If they exceed this limit, they will be crushed to death by themselves, and this world is obviously not the first low-gravity world. If creatures of this size want to support themselves, their bones must be harder than alloys, and their skin must be harder than
The Empire’s toughest and most tensile materials are even stronger, and the tendons are even stronger than artificial metal tendons——
If this is true, it means that its physical strength is almost the same as that of a Titan...
How can this be!?
"This is simply... a titanosaur."
Under the golden mask, Suoshiyang murmured in surprise, and as the giant dragons slowly approached, he felt more intuitively the size of these giant beasts.
It is no exaggeration to say that they are definitely capable of knocking over Titans...
And these mountain dragons do not move alone. There are layers of buildings on their backs, which are fixed very firmly with Savage Ada's own technology. Even when the dragon walks, it does not shake at all. Those buildings are like a small
The castle is densely covered with many platforms and spiers. Soshyan guessed that this is probably the base of operations for the pterodactyl knights. There are also large and small weapons, laser cannons and shuriken cannon turrets surrounding it, forming a formidable formation.
firepower network, the most conspicuous of which are six huge prism cannons.
The Prism Cannon is a powerful laser weapon unique to Ada and the main weapon of the Flame Crystal Tank. It is characterized by strong penetration and extremely long range, and can even be used as an anti-aircraft weapon.
No wonder Valentino Ravich said that if the dragons were there, they would not be afraid of these invaders at all. If these two huge mobile war fortresses were there, those Slaanesh invaders would really not be enough to look at, and they would be trampled all over.
.
Unless it's orbital bombing.
In addition, Soshyan saw a small building on the head of this giant dragon, which looks like a crown. It is possible that Ada, who controls and controls this giant beast, is inside.
"Your Highness, this is the mountain dragon."
Valentinolavic knew that Soshyan didn't understand this, so he introduced it.
"They are also the guardians left to us by our ancestors. They have been protecting the world since the establishment of the Linnaean Kingdom. When the Hungry Dragon invaded, they also destroyed the most terrifying, gigantic, and greedy beasts. Their power is not only
Due to their size and indestructible skin, when needed, they can mix flammable gases from their digestive system of twenty-three stomachs and spit out flames strong enough to melt steel." (This thing can receive multiple blasts of plasma.
Annihilator is quite shocking, even though it is set in ancient times... The Adeptus Mechanicus calls it the Ancient Dragon, but I have changed some settings and used a new name here)
"In other words, did these two exist before the Great Fall?"
"Yes."
"They can't reproduce?"
Valentino Ravich shook his head.
"Mountain dragons are not naturally born creatures. They are spiritually tamed beasts created by the ancient empire using special technology. Although these two mountain dragons have laid several eggs over a long period of time, they cannot hatch at all. Made by the ancient empire
This technology of super-large psychic beast taming has been completely lost. What our ancestors have left us is only Qiulong-level animal husbandry technology, and there is nothing we can do about it. Fortunately, mountain dragons have a long lifespan, so there is no need to worry about it yet.
.”
"It turns out that it is made by combining biotechnology with spiritual energy. No wonder it goes against the common sense of biology... If I guess correctly, the mountain dragon actually refers to a tamed dragon of a certain size, right?"
"Yes, Your Highness, our ancestors divided dragon taming into four levels according to their body shape, namely Sock Dragon, Gang Dragon, Qiu Dragon and Mountain Dragon. The domestication and breeding technology we inherited only reaches the levels of Sock Dragon, Gang Dragon and Qiu Dragon.
For example, the dragon knights are said to ride Skeleton dragons, while Triceratops and Pentaceratops are all Ganglong dragons. Only a few mutant individuals such as Frost Heart will reach the level of Qiu dragon. Generally speaking, Qiu dragons mostly refer to wrists.
Dragons and Megalodon.”
"So, actually this kind of mountain dragon has even lost its name?"
Valentinolavic nodded awkwardly.
"That's true... because the ancestors left no relevant written records."
At this time, Soshyan suddenly thought of something and turned to Doral.
"My dear, Her Majesty the Eternal Queen seems to have said before that the Holy Grail of the Phoenix is related to the psychic beasts of the ancient empire? Does this kind of mountain dragon also belong to the category of psychic beasts?"
