The timing of the jump came suddenly, and the dust did not give much room for the companions to think. Before he could see what the crimson thing that fell from the sky was, Kaede and the two girls grabbed the scales on the side of the male fire dragon's back with one hand.

The Shadowhunter regretted it. He wanted to curse, but his body was pulled by a huge force, and the dragon was dragged forward at a rapid pace. Without the barrier of the mask, as soon as Kaede opened his mouth, the oncoming wind poured into his throat in large streams, making him only let out a choking "snoring" sound.

The four of them weighed more than two hundred kilograms in total, and pressed on half of the fire dragon's body almost at the same time. Even the body of the Sky King shook immediately, and his wings involuntarily tilted to one side, almost touching the hot lava on the ground. The hunters' feet were about to fall into the lava, and the dragon's tail flicked in a panic and made a big turn to the side of the dust. The people who were climbing on the monster floated sideways like flags, so that they were not melted by the fire pool.

"Ahead!" Kaede said goodbye to most of his face, and finally roared out in the strong wind. At the front of the dragon's flight path, a towering pillar of volcanic rock had been eroded by the submerged magma beneath its feet, and was pouring towards the hunters little by little. The weight of the red beast was uneven, and no matter how hard it tried to maintain its balance, it could not easily change its course, and it was about to crash headlong towards the skyscraper giant pillar.

"Climb up...... Climb to the back! Feng Chen hurriedly raised his hand and greeted. The young hunter was the first to crawl upwards with the scales of the flying species, followed by Kaede and the two girls. The flying species had hideous scales and armor on its back, and there was almost no place to stay, and the dust sealed to the heel of the monster's neck, and sat down there against the whistling wind pressure.

The male dragon's wings fluttered several times, forcibly reversing the direction of flight to the right path. But the crisis is still not over, the rock pillar in front of the hunters is several tons, if they fall into the lava, the waves alone will be enough to swallow them, "Let this thing go up!" We're going to be slapped into the lava! ”

"I'm trying to figure it out!" Feng Chen turned his head and glared at his senior, and then leaned on the neck of the flying species, "Hold on, we're going to take off!" ”

"Roaring ——!" The beast roared in response, its gliding wings slapping downward. Beneath the whitening belly, the magma wrinkled in layers on both sides. The young hunter grabbed the spiky scales raised from the monster's neck with both hands and pulled it back like a rein, and the monster's head suddenly rose, and even its body rose upward, which could be lifted several meters.

"It's not enough!" Kaede tilted her head and looked at the lava bubbling beneath her feet.

"This guy has to carry the weight of the four of us and give it some time!" Feng Chen took a deep breath and used all his strength to pull the scale armor back. With a "snort", the armor spike protruded, and it was actually pulled off the body by the Shadow Hunter with his bare hands.

"Whew!" The male dragon cried out in pain, his wings flapping lifelessly, and the wind rippled beneath him. The monster's back tilted upward, and with a strong lift, it carried the four hunters on its back towards the smoke-filled dome.

"Poof—" The pillar finally fell into the lava behind everyone, and the waves lined up on both sides, and the crest of the wave passed past the tip of the male dragon's tail. The spikes on the monster's tail were scorched by the lava, turning into a black charcoal crust that broke off and fell.

Soaring into the air nearly a hundred meters in one go, the hunters finally left the range where the lava could splash, even though the heat was still scorching the monster's back. Without waiting for Feng to calm down, the old hunter found that the petite male fire dragon not only did not stop rising into the air, but the wings swung more frequently, and the monster's body was like a disarmed crossbow, and it flew higher into the air without stopping: "Hey! Alright, let it stop! ”

"It's not like you can stop if you can say stop!" Feng Chen's eyes were tightly closed, and his hands kept stroking around the neck of the giant beast. The burning point of the fire dragon's tail was its nerve-riddled stinger, which had lost its vital attack organs, and even the Sky King looked crazy. The young man tried to call out several times, but could not get a clear response from the fire dragon.

"I thought you could control it!" Kaede had just raised his head, and a sudden feeling of overweight made the old hunter's head back on the back of the flying species, and the monster's craggy armor and hunting suit rubbed against the tooth-sore sound.

"That's not how the dragon cavity works!" Feng Chen only replied urgently, and then returned to the work of pacifying the monster. Hanging in the air hundreds of meters high, with the boiling lava beneath him, the safety of the shadow hunters depends on a male fire dragon who has been injured and has lost his temper, Rao is dust himself also feels that his forehead is sweating, "Don't relax, it may have to make trouble for a while!" ”

The black smoke gushing out of the crater covered the core area of the summit in a matter of minutes. I don't know if it was because of the pain in my body or because I lost my mind in the apocalyptic atmosphere of the volcano, the Sky King screamed madly and rushed into the scorched black smoke with the four people on his back. Surrounded by sulphur smoke, barely visible to the fingers, only the crumbling dragon body under his feet and the occasional fire in the distance, signaling that the hunters were above the volcano.

I don't know how long it took, until Feng Chen's hands that were grasping the scale armor were about to lose consciousness, and the dragon roared violently, leading the four people behind him to break through the last black cloud. Although the usual vicinity of the volcano is covered in gray fog, it seems to the Shadow Hunters who have been temporarily deprived of their vision that it is already a joy to see through the clouds.

"Okay......" Feng Chen's shoulders collapsed, and the whole person fell on the dragon's back. He endured the dizziness of the sudden withdrawal of the dragon cavity, and said weakly, "Let's ...... for the time being. It's kind of safe. ”

"That's what you call 'for a while'?" Kaede coughed incessantly as she complained. Walking through the thick smoke, the hunter was covered in black dust on his armor, face and hands, and a layer of black grains hung on his eyebrows, "It's just a thorn in a broken tail, is it necessary to go crazy to such an extent?" ”

"It's more than that." Feng Chen groped out a bottle of refreshing potion from his waist, drank it dry, and his eyes brightened slightly, "This guy has two broken hind toes, and he is also blind in one eye, and it seems that he has only been out of the battle for a few hours, and he has not rested." "Lost depth vision, which may have been the reason why the dragon slammed straight into the pillar while on the ground.

"Still hurt?" The old hunter tensed, looked at the ground and swallowed, "You won't throw us down, will you?" ”

"At least you're alive now." The young hunter replied. As if finding that it was not suitable to make this kind of joke right now, Feng Chen changed his words and said, "Don't worry, its physical strength can at least last until we return to Burning Stone Town." The young man slapped the black ash on his body, he had just broken out of the danger zone, and everyone was in the same embarrassment, "After all, I don't have a choice, the monsters on the top of the volcano are all scared away by the momentum of the ancient dragon, God knows why it is the only one who is still wandering around there." ”

Kaede nodded in agreement with Feng Chen's words. Even if the hunters are still a few hundred meters in the air, they are still in danger. The magma gushing out of the surface warmed the entire volcano by a few degrees, and the air flow under his feet slowly rose, and with the additional lift, the Sky King could glide steadily in the air without waving his wings: "Seriously, how did you do it?" Let monsters of the level of the male fire dragon be at your disposal. ”

"The dragon cavity has never been so domineering as to take over the mind of a monster, and the only way to get this guy to do my thing is to use something else—something I don't like to use." Looking at Kaede's knowing expression, Feng Chen corrected, "I know what you're thinking, it's one thing to hunt monsters, it's another thing to manipulate and deceive monsters." ”

That being said, monsters of the rank of the Male Fire Dragon are the most suitable for young people to send. Its intelligence is not too low to understand the intricate commands of the Dust Seal, nor is it too high, and it carries an extra suspicion of the Dragonwhisperer's words. On top of that, the Flying Species is large enough to support the weight of four people in order to make the Shadow Hunters desperately break out of the collapse zone.

The hunters invariably looked back, the eruptions of the crater were becoming more and more frequent, and the vicinity of the summit had turned into a sea of fire, and the newly erupted magma came into contact with the air, throwing puffs of toxic smoke outward, and the black clouds were enveloping the area more and more. Fortunately, the flow speed of lava is far less than that of water, and the scope of influence is temporarily limited to the limited area of the peak, but the eruption does not stop for a moment, and sooner or later the entire main peak will be washed by the hot rock from the inside out, and maybe it will also affect the human settlements in the foothills.

"If you don't see it with your own eyes, I really can't believe it, it's all because of the attack of a top-tier predator." Kaede sighed, his eyes as if he was about to look at the crater through the smoke barrier, "Caught in the core of this natural disaster, those two thunder beasts won't have died together, right?" ”

"Alive." Feng Chen said firmly. Even if he didn't look at the thunder and lightning realm that covered the sky and the sun in the dragon's cavity vision, he knew that the ancient dragon was not so easy to fall, "The Qilin doesn't matter for the time being, the golden lion is still alive." However, the fanged beast's breath was very weak, as if it had been exhausted by that blow. ”

"They're not running yet? What do you do on the top of the mountain? ”

"Who knows." The young hunter said perfunctorily, but glanced at the top of the mountain, "Strange, why is there an airship rising near the crater?" I thought we were the only ones who had climbed to that height. ”

"Not the bastards of the Scales?" Even though he was out of danger, Kaede was still indignant that Bai Ye and his party did not save them when they saw death.

"They should have flown away." Disaster is imminent, airships are rising one after another in various areas of the volcano, and the last remaining flying species are scattered. The male dragon's gliding altitude was far higher than that of the airship, and on the monster's back, the Shadow Hunters could only see the top of the flock of air chambers, "The airship system is not right...... Hell, how does it seem to be the union cruiser of Ryan Yeru? ”

…………

"Is there something wrong with my eyes, or is there really a few people sitting on the back of that wyvern?" Xiao Zuoqing pointed out along the window of the airship. The girl's face was covered in a smoky red from the volcanic ash mist, and her hair curled strangely outside her helmet.

"Don't stand by the window." The regiment commander grabbed the youngest girl in the group, "Do you want to be taken away by the flying species?" ”

The flying species outside the boat are raging, and there are many high-level beings such as male fire dragons. Although they all fled for their lives in the event of a natural disaster, there was no guarantee that there would be hungry individuals or even gluttonous eaters. Even if the tower of the small airship can withstand a few attacks, the hunters do not dare to take this risk: "Go and lie down and rest, you have been in contact with an ancient dragon, and you don't know what kind of sequelae will be." ”

"I'm fine...... "the little flute weakly protested, "look outside, and you'll see the flying one." ”

Qin Shuiyu really glanced out the window, and the outside was full of inferior airships of different shapes, perhaps the long-lost dust was in one of them. The huntress controlled herself from thinking about it, and looked upwards. The dome was filled with green smoke, and she only had time to see a crimson dragon's tail burrow into the smoke layer, completely hidden from her field of vision: "There is no strange person riding a dragon, it's just ordinary smoke." Go and lie down, and when you leave the volcanic area, let the rescue Ai Lu give you a thorough examination. ”

The girl reluctantly paced back into her cubicle, and the only thing left in the cabin was the embarrassed hunters of the small hunting group. After the baptism of lava in the sky, the two-star hunters had not yet recovered from their fright, and each of them was in the corner to dress up their hunting clothes and bandage their wounds.

"Show me, the little hunting group is cursed......," Nie Xiaoyang muttered, he used a skinning knife to cut off the scorched hair one by one, shaking the blade in his hand, "Every time I encounter this situation, I want to simply go back to the protective forest of Golden Feather City and do a lifetime of ecological investigation." ”

Xiong Fuji untied the arm armor of his left hand, revealing a hideous burn mark, and covered it with gauze soaked in liquid medicine without changing his complexion. The tower shield beside the hunter was covered with a thick layer of rock crust - even if the shield could withstand the impact of magma, it could not stop the pervasive heat: "Let me see, that's all you have to say." ”

"Well, at least it didn't turn out badly." Finally shaved off the remnants of every piece of volcanic rock on the armor, Jia Xiaoshu said, "At least I survived, the sightings of the ancient dragon and the dragon family fighting are enough to say that the mobile union will investigate, isn't it?" ”

"It's two ancient dragons......" Feng Manyun opened his eyes and corrected in a deep voice

"What does that mean?" The female leader wondered, "Is there a second ancient dragon on the volcano?" ”

"It's just the unicorn and the golden lion," the Xishu hunter frowned, "it's hard to explain...... However, when the breath was accumulating, for a moment, the golden lion's momentum suddenly increased to the level of an ancient dragon species. ”

The law of rank is not completely insurmountable, at least Feng Chen and Man Yun have seen counterexamples respectively, and the hunter in white has even experienced it himself. However, the promotion from the dragon family to the ancient dragon is ten thousand times more unbelievable than the ordinary transcendence rank. No matter how the Golden Lion did it, at the moment when the thunder light was accumulated, it had indeed gained the power of the ancient dragon species to change the heavens and the earth.

The other thunderbeast froze for a second in front of this change, and it didn't have time to stop Ragane's movements, and it only took that second to incur a natural disaster.

Without waiting for Qin Shuiyu to open his mouth to ask what was going on, the door of the cabin was hurriedly opened from the outside, and the tone of the person who came came was anxious that could not be concealed: "Are you all okay?" ”

Seeing the fully armored peers outside the cabin, the little head of the group calmed down and reluctantly changed into a smile: "Qing'er needs to do a check, and the rest is fine...... Thanks to you, we are lucky not to be swallowed by lava. ”

"To be honest," Shentu Miaoling sighed, "but we were shocked, we never expected you to come to the volcano...... Your Highness. ”

"My friend is in danger, even if it's in danger, I'm going to go through it." Yoda took off his mask, "When I saw the eruption, I thought I was a step too late...... But since you're all so spirited, I'm relieved. ”
