Chapter 735: Chapter 513: Flash Flood Eruption
When Li Long met up with Aya Dragon again, he was shocked to find that this guy had actually leveled up once more.
"Ran into some idiot who didn’t know his place. I gnawed him to death, awoo!"
Facing Li Long’s question, Aya Dragon answered like that.
By this time, the hammerhead dragon had probably already returned to its nest, so Li Long didn’t plan on sneaking over to steal meat. He wanted to wait until the next time the other side gathered the hatchlings before going.
Before starting the hunt, the two dragons needed to find a nest they could settle in.
First, the nest had to be hidden enough, and it also had to be convenient for escape and close to a water source.
The water sources in the valley weren’t limited to the lake at the entrance; in fact, there were quite a lot of them, even to the point of being a bit excessive.
Up to now, Li Long felt he hadn’t even explored one-tenth of the whole valley, yet he had already found nearly ten lakes, rivers, and streams in total.
In the end, they chose a recess cave in a cliff face.
The nearest water source was two kilometers away, seemingly the biggest waterfall in the valley, at least the largest water source they had found so far.
The cliff recess was surrounded by greenery, very suitable for Li Long to use for hiding.
However, the reason this place hadn’t been occupied by other hatchlings was that the cave entrance wasn’t exactly concealed.
An open cave like this could be seen through at a glance from the outside.
Fortunately, with the stone dragon around, this problem wasn’t really a problem.
Now that Li Long was LV5, he could summon two stone dragons, or one larger stone dragon.
Letting the stone dragon turn into a pile of rocks blocking the entrance perfectly solved the concealment issue of the recess cave.
They’d already been running around this dragon world for quite a while; seeing that night had fallen, they decided to rest.
Choosing to find a nest and rest was undoubtedly the right call, because that night the valley was hit by a torrential downpour that lasted all night.
This level of rain was something neither dragon had ever seen before, like the whole world had been swallowed by a raging waterfall.
Luckily the two dragons were curled up in a dry cave, able to maintain their body temperature, which was crucial in this kind of natural environment.
The next day, by a river in a dense forest.
A little dragon with red skin and small horns was drinking water recklessly.
It seemed very thirsty; in no time at all, it was gulping down water until its belly turned slightly round.
It had no idea that a hidden figure was silently watching it from behind.
Gradually, that figure revealed itself amidst the jungle.
A body of shiny iron plates, with a hollowed-out belly.
It was Aya Dragon.
The second time it devoured a dark green dragon, it chose the same ability, namely Green Camouflage.
"Awoo..."
Aya Dragon, having revealed himself, didn’t choose to launch a sneak attack. Instead, he deliberately let out a threatening sound, drawing the red hatchling’s attention.
[Rooaar?!]
Hearing such a close growl from behind out of nowhere, the red hatchling was scared out of its skin.
It quickly turned around and found a strange little dragon that was actually smaller than itself.
If it were another hatchling with a more fiery temper, it might have already rushed over to teach this reckless fool a lesson.
But the red hatchling was timid by nature. After hesitating for a second, it still chose to back off.
So it gave the other a long, deep look, then turned to run downstream to retreat.
However, it had barely taken a few steps when an unremarkable pile of rocks by the riverbank suddenly moved.
Clack-clack-clack!
Right in front of the red hatchling, that rock pile assembled itself into a stone dragon almost as big as it was!
The stone dragon bared its mouth at it in a silent roar, as if it would pounce on it in the next second.
[Rooaaar?!]
Such a bizarre scene scared the red hatchling half to death on the spot.
Screaming in panic, it spun around and bolted.
With both directions blocked, there was only one way left to choose: upstream.
But what the red hatchling didn’t know was that this direction was actually the most dangerous one for it.
If it had chosen to rush toward Aya Dragon or the stone dragon, it could have broken out using its own advantages.
Only this upstream direction was the one it absolutely shouldn’t have picked.
Sure enough, just when it thought it had successfully escaped, it suddenly felt a gust of wind rush at it.
[Roar?!]
Before it could react to what had happened, the red hatchling collapsed to the ground, blue blood spurting wildly from its throat.
A little dragon that looked like it was wearing a white coat appeared out of thin air.
That was the last scene it saw.
"Holy crap, another successful hunt!"
Aya Dragon came running over in high spirits from behind.
From this morning till now, counting this red hatchling, they had already hunted two hatchlings.
"Quit yapping and eat."
Li Long was quite satisfied with this efficiency.
Thinking back to his first one-on-one with a dark green dragon yesterday, it had actually been a bit of a struggle.
Now with Aya Dragon as an assistant, it was much easier to form an encirclement around their prey.
Plus his own sneak attacks in the chaos, hunting became a lot easier overall.
So the two dragons lowered their heads together and started gnawing on their spoils.
"Woo-woo-woo! I leveled up!"
After only a few bites, Aya Dragon let out an excited sound.
Light surged over his body, then quickly faded.
His frame immediately grew a size, rising to LV3.
"What ability did you get?"
Li Long asked while still tearing and chewing big chunks of meat.
Since Aya Dragon had already leveled up, the rest of this red hatchling naturally belonged to him.
"Dammit, talk about bad luck."
The moment he asked, Aya Dragon’s face instantly fell.
At the same time, he also revealed his new ability.
