Chapter 176: Dragon Canyon
An hour later.
"We're almost there. Chris, who hadn't spoken for a long time, said suddenly.
"Really, where?"
Yunhai carefully observed the terrain below, but found no terrain similar to a canyon.
"Don't worry, look!"
In an instant, in the distance, a fog gradually dissipated, and in the jungle full of pines and cypresses, a huge canyon suddenly appeared, and there were bursts of dragon groans from it, and several dragons were flying carefree in the sky, and on the cliff on one side of the canyon, there was a very conspicuous castle, which seemed to be the headquarters of the Dragon Knight Legion.
At the end of the canyon, a huge waterfall cascades down from the outside of the canyon, rushes all the way to the bottom of the canyon, and then dissolves into a gentle stream from the other end and disappears into the jungle.
"Oh my God, what a spectacular sight!" the crowd exclaimed, indeed, such a natural scenery is really rare and spectacular.
"We, the Dragon Knight Legion and some dragons willing to cooperate with us, are stationed here. Chris proudly introduced. "Everyone, please come with me. β
As he spoke, Chris harnessed the red dragon and swooped down in one breath, followed by Akali, and the others and Xiaoguang also hurriedly followed.
"Akali's dragon mastery is getting better and better. Yunhai looked at Akali who was clinging to the back of the silver dragon, and said secretly in his heart.
The group landed near the castle, where they could clearly see the appearance of the entire canyon, dragons of various colors and strengths, living together in harmony here, and the sea of clouds could feel that there were several of the most powerful dragons, and their strength was not weaker than Akali's silver dragon.
"Look, these dragons are colorful, just like the dragons of God!" Fluttershy says.
"However, the color of the dragons here not only represents the type of force, but also represents different habits, and in Shenzhou, almost all dragons have the same habits. Yun Hai looked around and found that in addition to the red dragon and silver dragon next to him, there were also black dragons, bronze dragons, blue dragons, golden dragons and so on, which were really varied.
"Really, tell me about the difference between these dragons?" Fluttershy is instantly interested.
"Uh...... I don't know what to do. Yunhai shook his head helplessly. "If you ask me about the dragons of Shenzhou, I can still say something, here ......"
"Cut, why are you pretending to understand!" Fluttershy pouts. "Akali, can you tell me about the characteristics of these dragons?"
"yes, yes!" Akali nodded, and began to talk one by one.
Dragons, although there is no difference between them and reptiles in terms of structure and reproduction, however, their body temperature is constant, which is not the same as cold-blooded reptiles, and the dragon's powerful inner potential also brings different characteristics to different dragons, some can live in magma, some can live in the coldest areas of the world, some can live in highly poisonous swamps, and almost all dragons have the ability to dive.
It is generally believed that dragons can survive for more than a thousand years, but in fact people have not collected specific data on the lifespan of dragons, that is, people have not seen dragons that have died of old age, and they may not know how long the dragons live.
Although dragons have a similar body structure to reptiles, they have the skeleton of birds, and some scholars have speculated that birds and dragons are the products of reptile evolution, but this point is significantly contradictory to Catholic teachings, so the vast majority of people do not admit it.
"Actually, the origin of human beings is not what the Bible says, is it?" Yunhai asked.
"Yes, if Nuwa's words are correct, human beings existed long before God came to our worldly realm. Akali nodded slightly. Perhaps one day, such a fact will become accepted by everyone, but I am afraid that it is not the present or the future that we can see. β
"Yes, but that day will come......" Yunhai's gaze became vicissitudes.
"Alright, I'll go on, where is it down here?" Akali continued.
Dragons, like birds, are much faster in flight than they can on land, but on land, dragons can rely on their strong bones and muscles to exert unmatched strength, while they can't carry too much weight in the air.
The dragon scales are the most intuitive embodiment of the strength of a dragon, the dragon's scales generally present an elongated pentagonal shape, which can be replaced in the process of growth, and the dragon scales are very cherished and excellent materials, and many powerful weapons are indispensable to the participation of dragon scales.
Generally speaking, the scales of the dragon's abdomen and neck tend to be small and soft, which has the same characteristics as the reptiles who like to burrow, and a small area of the dragon's neck is completely unprotected by scales, which is the weakness of the dragon, which people tend to use to deal with the dragon, and the dragon will sometimes rely on other hard items to defend against its weakness, such as human shields.
The dragon's wings, on the other hand, are similar to bats, with the roots of the wings directly connected to the flanks, effectively giving the wings more force through the muscles of the abdomen, as well as gaining more surface area, making the dragon's flight in the air extremely flexible.
Generally speaking, a dragon has a life span of 1,000 years, of which the first 200 years are the juvenile and juvenile years, and this period is called a baby dragon.
Two hundred to four hundred years is the prime of the dragons, that is, when the dragons are at their most powerful, their bodies and spirits are at the peak of their bodies, and the dragons at this time will begin to skillfully use their combat skills and magic, and are the most likely enemies for human beings, and of course, they are also the first individuals to bear the brunt of the competition of the same kind.
Four hundred years later, the dragon's body began to slowly age, one of the most obvious features is that the scales are no longer bright, but begin to lose their luster, the dragon's physical strength in this period is slowly declining, but the amount of magic is gradually increasing, there is such a saying in the magic world, every ancient dragon over 800 years old, its magic ability is equivalent to the human great magister, they are the elders of the dragon, no longer undertake high-intensity combat missions, but to train young dragons, and other things they are willing to come up, dragons in this period of time, often disappear from people's field of vision, until deathγ
"Akali, why haven't you been talking for so long, I want to hear what the dragons are capable of!" Fluttershy yells impatiently.
"Hey, it's people saying, don't interrupt!" Yun Hai quickly covered her mouth.
"Don't worry, Fluttershy, I'll get to that right away. Akali gestured. "...... on the Relationship between Color and Force"
Dragons' strength comes from the environment in which they have lived for generations, and it can be said that their strength is actually a reflection of their strong adaptability, and the colors of dragons are as diverse as the environment in which they live.
Red dragons, with the most powerful flame power, their nests are often built in magma, using the temperature of magma to hatch young dragons, this is the same as Bi Fang and three-legged golden crows and other fairy beasts, their color is as bright red as the environment they live in, and it is also a very common dragon, Chris's mount is a red dragon.
Silver dragons, with the power of frost, their dragon breath has also changed from the fiery flames of the fire dragon to a cold blizzard, dragon eggs must be in a low temperature environment to develop normally, and their whole body, also gave birth to silver scales of ice and snow, which is a very rare kind of dragons.
The Black Dragon, on the other hand, is a giant dragon that lives in a swamp, their breath has become a highly acidic corrosive acid that can burn almost anything they come across, but like all matter, they can be easily resisted by the energy barrier formed by any spell, and their dragon eggs must survive in a swamp with high poison, and the black dragon is also the most poisonous of all dragons.
Green dragons, living in the forest, their dragon breath is similar to wind attribute spells, generally do not show up easily, their dragon eggs need to hatch in the forest with fresh air, some individuals of the green dragon are also poisonous, but the toxicity is not strong.
Bronze Dragons, as a kind of dragon that lives in arid regions, their dragon eggs need to be buried in the sand that is heated by the sun to hatch, and their dragon breath, similar to a sandstorm, has the effect of earth attribute magic, and is also a very rare dragon.
Blue dragons, as the only kind of dragons that place their nests at the water's edge or underwater, their ability to fight in the water is naturally the strongest, it is said that the most powerful blue dragons will not suffer when fighting the sea monsters of the deep sea in the sea, and their dragon breath will become a high-pressure water current, which is the rarest of all dragons, and has almost disappeared in front of people.
Dragons of other colors, such as golden dragons, white dragons, etc., are all variants or subspecies of the above six basic dragons, and they have similar attack styles and habits, and can be dealt with in similar ways.
"Whew...... Who can give me saliva......" Akali finished everything in one breath, let out a sigh, took the kettle handed over by Yunhai, drank it in one go, and then said: "That's all I know about Lu Dao, I don't know if Lu Dao Chris is satisfied." β
"I have to say, you really worked hard, the series of knowledge just now, I'm afraid that many active dragon knights can't remember it completely, it seems that you are absolutely qualified in terms of understanding the dragon, please follow me, I will take you to meet our legion leader." β
Others, however, were blocked.
"I'm sorry everyone, only people from the Dragon Knight Legion are allowed to enter here, please wait a moment, can you?"
With that, Chris led Akali into the corridors of the castle.
