"Two?"

Lan En tilted his head at the Commander-in-Chief and the scholar with interest, he searched for the materials he had studied at the Institute of Ecology during this time, and there seemed to be no explanation for the term.

"What's that?"

The commander-in-chief did not answer Lan's question immediately, but first frowned and confirmed it with the director of the Institute of Ecology.

"Is it [two] so quickly? It's only been a short time since he was captured, right? ”

"It's enough to listen to descriptions and make simple observations." The old man waved his hand indifferently. "The characteristics of [the second name] are too obvious."

After the two finished talking, the director of the institute immediately jumped up and rushed back into the pile of scholars, squeezing in front of the brute-jawed dragon.

The Commander-in-Chief took the time to explain the concept of [two names] to Lanen.

Of course, there are a large number of individuals in a monster species, and it is for this reason that it can be called a 'species'.

The 'special individual' mentioned above refers to the individual who has opened the gap and difference with the original species in a species through special environment or other special conditions.

For example, because the nutrition is too abundant, the physical limit of the original seed is broken.

Or they live in extreme environments all year round, resulting in breath and other attack methods that are affected by the environment.

It sounds like these monsters are already beyond the original species.

But they still can't be called "two".

The difference is that if an original monster is given the treatment of special individuals in their race, then it is very likely to become a special individual.

But [two names] are even more special, that is, the individual born of a 'some' monster in the population due to a unique encounter and mutation in the course of its own life.

To put it simply, there can be a group of special individuals. But there is only one in a species, or perhaps in a world.

Like this brute-jawed dragon, the root of its change is that it had a brief encounter with Lanen and almost lost one of its legs. But by chance, it found a way to heal and even exercise on its own, and finally it became like this.

In the entire natural world, it is almost impossible for a brute-jawed dragon to exist in the same way as it.

Of course, scarcity does not directly equal strength. However, the [two] monsters are generally stronger than the original species, which is basically the consensus of hunters and scholars.

"Unique mutations?"

Lan En clasped his hands to his chest, and through his very different height, he looked over the crowd and looked at the brute-jawed dragon that he had captured. Now it's time to call it [Blazing Claw].

The unique mutation of living organisms, the concept made him feel a little excited.

His talent and interest in biotechnology has made his intellectual curiosity soaring.

"If only I could dissect it"

The witcher muttered under his breath.

"Oh? Do you want to study it? The Commander-in-Chief tilted his head to the side, looking at Lanne. No problem, if the scholars at the institute agree, you can certainly join the study of Blazing Claw. ”

"Huh?" Lan En looked at the commander-in-chief in surprise, "Is it okay to dissect?" Doesn't this fiery claw have to be released to nature? ”

After so many days of contact, Lane learned more about the hunters' way of doing things.

In the eyes of these hunters, as long as it does not pose a threat to human production and life, then whether the monster is released into the wild depends only on whether its ecological habits are likely to affect nature.

And it has nothing to do with the strength of the monster.

Although this fiery claw is significantly stronger than that of ordinary brute-jawed dragons, its ecological habits have not changed particularly much so far. That is, it is still part of nature.

Although he likes to block the door of the star stronghold, if it weren't for the time constraint due to the activities of the Molten Mountain Dragon, it is estimated that it would be too late for the scholars to be happy in normal times.

Hunters will release it back into the wild, which is almost a no-brainer.

"Of course I'll let it go." But under Lan's question, the commander-in-chief looked at the witcher in surprise.

"It's just an autopsy, how can you kill it? The material rewards given to the hunter in the capture mission are all taken out in the process. ”

The corners of the witcher's mouth twitched at this.

Dissect and kill. It's not an equal sign here, is it?

But looking back, the brute-jawed dragon's tail was cut off by its own flesh and bones, and scholars say that it will not take a few days to grow back.

Under the exuberant and exaggerated vitality of the monsters, the anesthesia is subjected to limited anatomical research. It really doesn't seem to be a fatal injury?

After all, even the entire lost bone can grow back, and even if it is hastily sutured after dissection, it is estimated that it will be able to heal itself well after waking up.

Dry! This kind of vitality is so enviable!

Lan En pursed his lips.

Although the witchers and space marines are also enhancement methods that have made great achievements in the survival rate of the battlefield, they seem to be nothing compared to the vitality of these monsters.

However, if you can study the bodies of monsters in this world. Maybe.

Lan En's eyes began to grow lively and expectant. I think I've come up with a good idea.

"But although the two are precious, now is not the time to study, everyone!"

Suddenly, the commander-in-chief shouted loudly, and the scholars and others watching the excitement were stopped.

"This fiery claw will remain in the Star Stronghold, remaining anesthetized for later study. The most important thing for us at the moment is to explore the fundamental objectives of our mission! ”

At this point, the faces of everyone in the investigation team looked serious and expectant.

[Gulongdu].

The largest creature in the known world - the ancient dragon species, the molten mountain dragon.

Ancient dragons are creatures that stand at the apex of the world's ecology.

Compared to these god-like creatures, a brute-jawed dragon [two names] really doesn't matter.

So after the commander-in-chief's order, the material squad, which had long been gearing up, shouted and shouted, driving the board carts and flanners pulled by the herbivorous dragon to pull the goods, and lined up in a long line from the gate of the stars.

The investigation team was almost exhausted for this investigation.

Even the swordsmanship master who had always been in charge of the stronghold left with him.

There were only a few people left behind, and in order to keep the claws under anesthesia.

They were instructed by the Commander-in-Chief that if a monster attacked during this time, or if the Blazing Claw was out of anesthesia, they would simply run away.

There is no doubt that in the face of the Molten Mountain Dragon's ancient dragon crossing behavior, the commander-in-chief even adjusted the priority of the investigation to the Star Stronghold, second only to the safety of personnel.

"I've always felt that it's a bit impractical to use human creations to stop an active volcano, let alone a hurried creation."

Lan En looked at the convoy of fish rushing out, and said to the commander-in-chief with a slight frown in the smoke and dust.

However, the white-haired old man with a black face did not have any objections.

"If we can achieve the best, even if we can't, we can get unprecedented precious information."
