Under the Red Dragon.

Chapter 10 The Dragons' First Hunt

Kalon lay lazily in his nest.

During this period, he went through another short sleep lasting one month, and his body had reached more than four meters thanks to his talent for super-limit growth.

This size is far beyond the normal size of a five-colored dragon hatchling of the same age. It has to be said that Riven's feeding is crucial.

The current Kalon can no longer be satisfied with the small amount of food that Akiz provides every day at a fixed time and in a fixed quantity.

With his talent of super-limited growth, his appetite is much larger than that of a normal dragonfly, and his digestive ability is even more terrifying.

He needs to eat at least twice his body weight in food every day to support his growth and development and daily activities. If he does not get enough food, his growth and development will be delayed and his daily activities must be reduced.

Then they can only lie lazily on the ground like some wild beasts to reduce energy consumption.

And always relying on Riven to feed the dragon is not a good idea. Riven will not come every day, and the elf is not an appendage of the dragon, so it does not need to follow the dragon all the time.

In this case, in order to avoid delaying my growth and development, I can only find a way myself.

Charon had wanted to learn some magic from Riven before, and Riven's magic would undoubtedly be extremely convenient for hunting.

But all the abilities of the Pixie elves come from being born with fairy dust, just like dragons rely on their own evil dragon blood, they are more like blood sorcerers, and these abilities cannot be acquired through learning.

However, during the exploration, Caron discovered that although the dragon was a naturally powerful magical creature, it did not have a magic core in its body.

In other words, the core of magic is the evil dragon blood of the dragon itself. Perhaps the same is true for spellcasters such as blood sorcerers.

The evil dragon bloodline has been continuously absorbing and accumulating magic power since the birth of the dragon to provide for the dragon's growth. As time goes by, every blood vessel in the dragon's body is flowing with evil dragon blood and magic power, and the heart serves as the transit point and regulator of the body's magic power.

Although this makes the dragon's magic as fast as a warlock's, the dragon's spells need to be awakened during a constant slumber, and the number of awakened spells is not large.

Some unlucky dragons may only awaken a few spells in their entire dragon life, some of which are seemingly useless spells like locating items. This is undoubtedly a huge waste of the dragon's powerful magical abilities.

In the eyes of most dragons, their naturally powerful bodies and sharp claws are powerful enough, not to mention their dragon breath, which is more powerful than most magic.

A dragon will naturally get stronger as it grows older. Why torture yourself when you can just sleep to get stronger?

Moreover, the restless evil dragon blood flowing in the bodies of the five-colored dragons also affects the dragons all the time. It is difficult for them to calm down and meditate on their own to absorb magic power, let alone learn spells.

Charon is different. He has the independent consciousness and clear mind as a human being, which can suppress the influence of the evil dragon's blood and allow him to calm down and learn magical knowledge. Now the influence of the evil dragon's blood on him is probably only equivalent to the distracting thoughts that often arise in humans.

Karon knew that although dragons were powerful enough, there were many creatures that were more powerful than dragons, including some legendary species that hunted dragons.

Moreover, even though humans are weak in the eyes of dragons, there are many dragon hunters who target dragons. They take it as an honor to slay dragons, and the dragon's treasure is also their motivation.

Although as a red dragon and a man, he likes to use his naked body and strength to crush the enemy and conquer the opponent.

But Caron, who had a fear of insufficient firepower in his soul, felt that he needed to have more backup methods, and magic was obviously a form of power.

Moreover, Karon learned from the inheritance he had just digested that the legendary wizard possessed the knowledge and ability to open up a demiplane in the void that belonged exclusively to the wizard.

Even if the mage dies, unless the plane coordinates of the demiplane are exposed, the demiplane will not fall into the hands of the enemy, but will only fall into the void until the plane disappears.

This made Charon very envious. A powerful magical creature like a dragon might not need to reach the legendary level to open up its own demiplane.

This is the dragon's safest treasure house and shelter, which is equivalent to a stable safe house. The insecure Kalon immediately decided to embark on the path of studying hard.

Kalon thought he should find a chance to talk to Akezi to see if he had any knowledge in this area. But the most important thing at the moment was to fill his stomach.

Half of the pond in the canyon has now been frozen into a huge piece of ice. The two white dragons have occupied this place as their open-air nest, which makes the black dragon Rosani very envious. He would wander around the pond every day.

Then he was driven away by the white dragon brothers, unless Rosani came with other young dragons to drink water.

The scene that Kalon saw when he got out of the cave was a daily scene in the canyon. The white dragon brothers were probably about to fall asleep recently, so after driving away the black dragon, they lazily stretched out their limbs on the ice like huskies.

He got up when he saw Kalon coming over. The foul-mouthed Gmot greeted his idol earnestly: "You woke up Kalon, you have become stronger again."

Seeing this, the black dragon Rosani also took the opportunity to come over and greet Kalon.

Karon nodded and took a look. He saw that most of the young dragons that had not yet fallen asleep were here, so he asked, "I'm going to hunt in the forest. Do you want to come with me?"

The reason why he asked the dragon cub's opinion was because giant dragon cubs usually leave the nest to explore the safe surroundings of the dragon nest when they are young dragons, and they also have a certain ability to protect themselves at this time.

Dragonlings usually stay in the dragon nest to sleep and play. Although he wants to take the dragonlings out hunting to train the teamwork of the dragon group, he still has to respect the wishes of his dragon.

Because Karon, the little female dragon Clenaya, and the blue dragon Doss had fallen asleep one after another, the black dragon and the white dragon could not play games and could only sleep every day. They were already bored to death.

So they decided to go hunting in the forest with the red dragon. The strong Charon, who was not as strong as a dragonfly, also gave them a lot of confidence and security. The green dragon Antajiana, who was hiding in the cave on the top of the mountain, had always had a different yearning for the forest than other dragonflies. When she heard the dragonflies' decision, she poked her head out and shouted, "Take me Charon with you. The forest is my home ground. I can help you."

Charon nodded in agreement and led the dragons to the forest outside the canyon. The scales on the dragon hatchlings were too conspicuous and could be easily spotted by prey.

The tall and dense forest can block the vision of prey, but it cannot block the sharp eyes of the dragon. The forest is very suitable as a hunting ground for young dragons.

This was not the first time that Charon left the Dragon's Nest. With the help of the elf Riven, his guide, he was actually very familiar with the nearby forest.

He decided to hunt only within a few dozen miles around the Dragon's Nest, which was considered a very safe area.

The blue dragon Akzi either drives away or hunts down overly powerful and ferocious beasts and high-level creatures. Once any danger that he cannot resist occurs, he can shout for help and quickly get support from the big dragon resting in the dragon's nest.

The young dragons spread their wings and flew in the sky, spreading out in a triangle to search forward.

The whole way was filled with the howling of young dragons, who were obviously very excited about their first hunt and the rare opportunity to let their dragon group loose. Charon did not intend to stop them, he also wanted to howl a few times.

There are a lot of wild beasts living in the forest that is not suitable for big dragons to hunt. The forest is especially lively because it is not known whether it is because of the screams of the young dragons or the influence of the dragon's might that has not been restrained.

Wild deer fled in all directions, wolves howled in fear after giving up hunting, flocks of birds were startled and flew away from their roosting trees, sloths fell from tall trees, and black bears hurriedly crawled into caves.

Caron lowered his head to look for his target and saw several hares that he had knocked unconscious near a tree.

But these are not Caron's goals, he is carefully looking for his prey.

A black wild boar with a body length of more than six meters was grunting and digging out the tubers of plants with its thick and long tusks. The circle of beard-like white hair on its face had been stained black by the soil, and the coarse black hair on its fat body was tangled.

Covered in a thick layer of mud armor formed by mud and resin, this is a wild boar king that has already stepped into the ranks of ferocious animals.

The wild boar group led by this wild boar king has about two hundred heads, which are scattered around this wild boar king and eating leisurely.

The pigs have no vigilance at all when eating, because their leader is the most powerful creature in this low hill area. All invading enemies will be pierced by the wild boar king's huge fangs and then eaten by the pigs.

A gust of wind blew, bringing with it a peculiar and dangerous smell. The wild boar king, who had been burying his head in the ground, raised his head vigilantly, and his tiny eyes began to search for the source of the dangerous smell.

The next moment, a dangerous smell descended from the sky. The dragonlets formed a circle around the pigs and slowly flapped their wings to float in the air three feet above the ground. The hunting instinct made the dragonlets focus all their eyes on the leader of the pigs.

Before the dragons started to move, the wild boar king, sensing the danger, howled rapidly, avoided the strong red dragon opposite and drove the herd of pigs towards the black dragon that looked the weakest. Under the protection of the herd, the wild boar king also began to advance rapidly.

The momentum of the pigs' charge frightened the Black Dragon, and he quickly rose higher to let the pigs pass, while spitting acid at the huge Wild Boar King.

The dragonfly's weak acid only made a slight sizzling sound when it hit the boar king's thick mud armor, and didn't even break the mud armor.

Seeing this, Karon roared angrily, flew into the air and chased after the wild boar king in the pig herd.

The white dragon Kamide, who had always been slow to react beside the black dragon, suddenly pounced from mid-air. Its sharp dragon claws swept past, scratched the wild boar king's hind legs, and pierced through the mud armor, leaving a scar on the wild boar king's thigh. A trace of blood bloomed from the scar.

But this injury was of no concern to the huge wild boar king. The spell-like mud armor awakened by the ferocious beast was very thick and blocked a lot of damage, so the wild boar king charged forward regardless.

The green dragon Antajena, who was chasing after him, quickly used her talent. The vines clinging to the tree suddenly twisted and turned into tentacles, actively wrapping around the running hooves of the wild boar king.

But even Charon didn't dare to collide head-on with the wild boar king because his strength was so great that he couldn't be restrained by a few vines. He just staggered slightly.

The white dragon Gmot was half a beat slower than the green dragon. He barely managed to spit out dragon's breath. The cold breath could not freeze the beast's running pace, but it condensed into a thin layer of ice under the feet of the wild boar king. The beast's front hooves slipped and it fell to the ground.

At this time, Karon's attack also arrived. With the powerful muscles exerting force, his sharp dragon claws swept past, easily piercing through the mud armor and making a cut on the wild boar king's back, revealing the white spine wrapped in pink muscles.

Then he tore off a piece of flesh and kicked the howling wild boar king, who was trying to escape again, to gain momentum and fly up.

The black dragon, having come to its senses, immediately spat a stream of venom into the wild boar king's eyes, blinding one of the wild boar king's eyes.

The wild boar king ran left and right in a panic, but the dragonettes gradually cooperated with each other, and the ice and vines blocked their escape.

The sharp claws of Charon and Kamide continued to bleed and tear its flesh, while the black dragon flapped its wings desperately trying to fly in front of the wild boar king and spit acid to repeat its old trick.

Before he had run a few miles, the wild boar king, unable to hold on, fell to the ground with a bang. He could no longer get up and could only lie on the ground groaning.

After landing, Karon walked up to the ferocious wild boar king and bit through its neck. The hot blood flowed into Karon's hungry stomach, giving Karon a sense of satisfaction.

Karon suppressed the urge to eat, and used his sharp dragon claws to break open the belly of the huge beast. He took out the still slowly beating heart and handed it to the white dragon Kamide. This was the best reward for Kamide's bravery.

Kamide growled with delight and bit through the giant heart.

Then, Charon called the young dragons to come forward and share the food of this huge beast, while he occupied the belly and began to eat. Now it was time for the dragons to enjoy their prey, and the feast for the young dragons had begun.
