Emperor Honglong

Chapter 15: Victory Escape

Views:

Powerful limbs moved alternately on the humus-covered woodland, and the wind whistled beside his ears. Jose did not dare to stop for a moment while running at full speed. Entering the forest did not mean absolute safety. He had to stay as far away from the fighting area as possible, the farther the better.

After running for a long time, the sound of fighting was no longer audible, and he did not see any flying enemies in the sky, so he let out a long sigh of relief.

"Okay, Cassie, we're safe for now, and good luck to you too."

After speaking, he walked quickly into the distance, thinking about where to go next while walking.

He didn't think about where to go, but he heard the sound of Sasha's footsteps behind him, and he turned around and saw the white dragon crept behind him.

"What are you still doing with me?"

"Battle... spoils of war," said Cassie's folded wings, and the spoils of war caught between the wings and back fell to the ground.

Jose didn't even look at the prize, but at Cassie.

The white dragon is called the shame of the five-color dragon because it is stupid, but the nature of dragons is not one, such as greed, cruelty, collection addiction, etc., Cassie's behavior violates nature.

After a few days of getting along, Jose knew a lot about Cassie.

Although his temporary ally stutters and doesn't know how to judge the situation, he has a bestial instinct when it comes to fighting and survival.

"Tell me, what's the matter?"

"Can I...can I continue...following...following you?"

"Why are you still following me?" Jose raised his brows. "The Red Nest is gone, the mission is gone, Arrigs is gone, and our covenant is over."

"You... you are smart, and you can... survive."

Jose frowned, and Cassie's words aroused his worries, worrying about the very real issue of "living".

The young dragon stage is the stage with the highest mortality rate of the dragon clan. Without the protection of its mother, the young dragons are easily hunted and killed by other predators in the wilderness. What about the usual asylum contract

He began to think about the possibility of teaming up with Casey to survive.

Bailong is very weak. Although Cassie is two or three years older than him, his body length is only two-thirds of his own. This data may be a bit general to understand, but the specific point is the difference between Yao Ming and Pan Changjiang.

But in any case, Cassie is a real dragon with inheritance, and it is better to have one more companion to take care of him than to fight alone.

"Well, in principle, I agree to continue the covenant."

"Thank you...thank you. From now on...I...I will listen to you."

Jose nodded in satisfaction.

Although Cassie is not very intelligent, he is obedient and does not fight for power. This is one of the reasons why Jose decided to take him with him.

Of course, the main reason is that in the previous battles, Cassie proved himself to be a reliable partner.

Afterwards, the two dragons negotiated the specific terms of the covenant and swore an oath in the name of the dragon god—Tiamat.

After taking an oath and dividing the spoils equally, the two dragons set off again in a hurry.

"Back...back...back...carry the bag~, the moment I left home, I knew that real life has too many special characteristics..." Jose imitated Cassie to clamp the booty with his wings and back, humming Continue your escape.

Leaving the Red Nest Tiankeng is easy!

He decides to escape from the territory of the Red Nest Matriarch.

After all, the probability of encountering strong people in this area is too high, former enemies are still enemies now, and former companions are not necessarily friends now.

In addition to intelligent creatures, there are many strange beasts with magical powers in the Tydanore continent. These beasts beyond common sense are collectively called extraordinary beasts. All kinds of extraordinary beasts constitute the greatest source of danger in the wild.

Due to the biological instinct of seeking advantages and avoiding disadvantages, there are almost no wild supernatural beasts in the radiation range of the Red Nest Mistress.

After a whole day of running, the two dragons had come to the edge of the territory of the Red Nest Mistress. They did not dare to continue running, and moved forward on foot with less movement, observing the surrounding situation while walking.

Jose looked up at the sun, the time was around four o'clock in the afternoon, and the sun was going to set in two or three hours.

"Cassie, if we can't find a place to live before dark, we'll find a low-lying area to dig a hole ourselves, and if time permits, hunt to fill our stomachs."

That's right, the priority in Jose's heart is to find a shelter before filling his stomach. He won't die from starvation overnight, but wandering in the dark will cause big problems. Powerful predators often have nocturnal out of the habit.

Because the red scales are more eye-catching, it is difficult for the red dragon to hide itself in any environment, especially at night in the jungle. A bright red in the dark environment is simply telling other predators that I am here, so you must try your best to hide yourself. Avoid spending the night directly in the jungle.

These are the survival strategies recorded in the inheritance of the dragon, and they are the precious experience obtained by the ancestors of the past generations through personal experience. Jose has no idea of being unique.

The two dragons searched carefully in the jungle, not letting go of any clues.

Suddenly, Cassie noticed an abnormality in a tree tens of meters away: "Look...look there!"

Following the direction pointed by his companion, Jose saw a pine tree with a straight and tall trunk and rough bark.

There are many such pine trees nearby, nothing special, especially the traces on the trees.

The two dragons approached and inspected carefully, and there were staggered downward scratches on the trunk between 2 meters and 2.5 meters above the ground. These scratches marked the territory, and they were still very fresh.

Seeing these scratches, Jose couldn't help but think of cat scratchers.

"For big cats, if you convert it to the size of a domestic cat, this big cat is at least 1.5 meters high and more than four meters long."

After Jose made his own judgment, he turned to his companion and said, "Cats like to shed hair. Search around to see if there are any fallen hairs, footprints or feces. By the way, don't leave my sight. Just in case something happens."

"Okay...okay."

The two dragons searched the surroundings and found some hairs that the big cat had shed.

Jose put the collected hairs in front of his eyes and observed them carefully. The hairs were yellow and black. They were tiger hairs.

He couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief. A tiger with such a large body size is normal. If it is a small or medium-sized cat like a lynx, then he has to be more vigilant, because most animals with an extraordinary body size are extraordinary beasts.

"Search separately and look for the tiger's cave. If you're lucky, you'll find the accommodation and food for today."

The two dragons were lucky. After searching for a while, they heard the sound of sleeping and snoring. Following the sound, they found the cave where the tiger was hiding.

The tiger, which has no natural enemies on the blue star, is far from being ranked high in the food chain of the magical world. Both Jose and Cassie are confident that they can defeat it.

Hard scales, sharp minions, strong muscles, and killer dragon's breath, these are the capital of their self-confidence.

To be on the safe side, Jose decided to let his stronger self make the shot.

He restrained Longwei and approached the cave lightly. The soft humus on the ground absorbed the sound of his footsteps well. The tiger didn't notice something was wrong until he was ten meters away from the cave entrance.

The moment the snoring stopped, the predator no longer hid his existence, he jumped up, and the raging dragon flames poured straight into the hole.

"Aw!"

The painful howl of the tiger sounded, the volume gradually decreased, and finally turned into a weak wail, which disappeared after a while.

After turning off the fire, Jose walked into the cave, and saw his dinner not far from the entrance of the cave, a tiger that had been burned beyond recognition.

This tiger was very vigilant and reacted very quickly. The moment it sensed something was wrong, it rushed to the entrance of the cave, but it was a pity that its enemies were too strong against it.

The sharp dragon claws cut through the carbonized epidermis, revealing the translucent fat connected to the bright red muscle. The fat is so shiny and attractive that it greatly increases the dragon's appetite.

"Thank you for the hospitality, I'm going to start."
