Black Dragon Code

Chapter 3 Trouble

On the third day after birth, the young dragons can already run freely, bite and fight, and try to start hunting alone.

All black dragons, no matter they are old or young, strong or weak, have the same habits. When hunting, they prefer to use an ambush strategy, lying in ambush in muddy ponds and rivers, rather than actively chasing and hunting.

In the humus-filled river, the three young dragons hid quietly under the mud at the bottom of the river. Their dark scales provided the best camouflage. They blended with the mud at the bottom, revealing only their erect pupils, like a crocodile, watching Looking at the swimming fish above his head, he is ready to go.

Not far away, the mother of the black dragon restrained her breath, crouched in the grass and ferns and watched, watching the first predation of her offspring.

But the result seems to be not so good. After one afternoon, the three children of the Black Dragon Lady all got nothing. The young dragons are still too young to skillfully control their gradually formed "violent momentum" ability (the legendary dragon power), resulting in The prey were already vigilant from afar, and they would never approach the hatchling's ambush at all.

On the contrary, Caesar, who was in the lower reaches, often passed by swimming fish and prawns. It wasn't that he was exceptionally talented, but that this guy hadn't accepted the dragon's inheritance, so he couldn't form spell-like abilities at all. In this case, the prey knew nothing about the little Caesar crawling on the bottom of the mud.

But even so, he still had nothing to gain. The sensitivity of the foreign fish was far beyond Caesar's imagination. Whenever he was about to make a move, the fish could feel it from the vibration of the mud and the flow of the river. Strangely, like a frightened bird, he dodged away, and before he jumped out from the bottom of the river, the prey had already escaped completely.

The other two young dragons didn't feel much, anyway, they would become predators at the top of the food chain sooner or later, and such hunting was more like a leisure time entertainment for them.

But Caesar was not so comfortable. The failure to hunt prey brought him a lot of frustration, so that when the little dragon crawled out from the bottom of the river, looking at his wet and filthy body, he couldn't help sighing.

"Unfortunate!"

To make matters worse, as time went on, he gradually showed more differences from the other two whelps.

Most intuitively, the two young dragons already have "fierce momentum" and can take initial flight. They only need to vibrate their wings lightly, and they are enough to get off the ground.

On the other hand, Caesar, no matter how hard he tried to flap his wings and set off a howling hurricane, he couldn't get himself into the air.

If you want to fly, you must abide by the laws of physics. There is a fixed relationship between weight, power and wingspan. Caesar stared at the two young dragons. From the perspective of the earth, their wings and even the black dragon lady's wings are a bit small , the lifting force generated is simply not enough to support dragons to fly.

The ratio of wings to body weight is seriously uncoordinated. Logically speaking, their weight is too large to fly at all.

However, dragons are magical creatures.

Wings are just an aid to dragons. What really allows them to soar into the sky is magic, the innate ability of dragons.

This is the biggest difference between Caesar and the other two young dragons. Without magic, what the young dragons can easily do is like a natural barrier to him.

However, Caesar was already mentally prepared, and he was not too frustrated. He knew that comparing with other young dragons was meaningless. Leave the lair of the black dragon lady.

Although black dragons are not known for their wisdom, their black dragon mother is not wise either, but her intelligence level will never be much lower than that of an adult human. As the young dragons grow up, the black dragon mother will sooner or later discover the difference in Caesar .

As the most vicious and vicious species of dragons, the world of black dragons is notoriously cruel. They are merciless in dealing with degraded and defective products, and expulsion is considered light. Facing the dragon beasts that have deceived themselves, black dragons have direct Possibility of killing it.

Soon Caesar discovered that in the next few days,

My food began to shrink, a full 30% less than usual. Although the black dragon mother didn't find out the truth, she still regarded him as an inferior baby dragon that was not as developed as other dragons. ignored.

"This is impossible." A few days later, Caesar crawled out of his mother's lair in the swamp while the black dragons were asleep.

The newborn baby dragons need to eat a lot to meet the needs of growth and development, but with their mother's lazy temperament, they are not willing to spend a little more energy hunting for the inferior baby dragons. Degree.

"Anyway, I can't die of hunger, not to mention, isn't this cub able to eat dirt?" This was the thought of the black dragon's mother.

Caesar knew that the current situation would only get worse as time went on.

"Sooner or later, he will be killed." Even though he has been devouring inorganic matter to feed his hunger, the growth and development of the young dragon without sufficient nutrition supply has gradually stagnated.

During this period of time, his younger brothers and sisters tended to approach or even exceed his body size.

But these two young dragons are pure real dragons, and they are constantly acquiring dragon knowledge and awakening spell abilities. He is not comparable to them. Caesar doesn't care about being surpassed by the two young dragons. Certain self-preservation power.

"You can't count on the mother of the body, you have to hunt by yourself."

Caesar thought that if he continued to stay in a daze, the situation would continue to deteriorate as the food dwindled, and sooner or later he would lose the ability to continue growing. When his vicious mother discovered that he was nothing more than a degenerate drake, he had no choice but to die.

In this case, Caesar decided to take the risk and go hunting alone.

I saw this little dragon wagging its tail, peeling away the grass and ferns, and burrowing into the dense bushes, its slender body disappeared.

For any newborn dragonling, the jungle is a dangerous place full of dangers, but he has no choice but to take a risk.

The little whelp carefully walked through the dense weeds and thorns, his heart beating constantly. He knew that he was a pure novice, and if he was not careful, he would turn from a predator to a hunted object.

At this time, he must be careful enough and prudent enough to survive in this scary shadow jungle.

Fortunately, before that, Caesar had already formulated a detailed hunting plan and selected his own hunting target: carnivorous mammals.

He is not picky about his taste like ordinary black dragons, he must have fish, shrimp and aquatic animals. Those ordinary creatures that are strong but do not have magic ability are the best food for him now, which can provide him with sufficient fresh meat and nutrition.

But the premise is to catch them first.

Like fish swimming in other worlds, mammals also have extremely sensitive senses of hearing and smell, not to mention being in the jungle, any sign of trouble can make these creatures vigilant.

Fortunately, dragons, as predators at the top of the food chain, have already evolved a series of organs that are highly adaptable to the environment. The meat-like protrusions at the bottom of his claws allow him to walk quietly in the woods.

Caesar's dragon wings are very small compared to their weight, and they can't fly at all without using magic, but the lifting force generated by lightly flapping their wings is enough to allow him to slide smoothly across the humus-covered ground. more secretive.

But that's not enough.

Caesar, who has experienced fishing failures, knows that these alone are not enough to make him return with full rewards. Although he is powerful and has hard scales, his speed has become the weakness of this young dragon. The little dragon is seriously biased. In terms of sensitivity, it appears stagnant and dull.

It is almost impossible for Caesar to rely on conventional methods such as raids and hunting to accomplish predation.

You have to use your body more skillfully.

Caesar got into the bottom of the bushes, dug up the hard soil, covered his body well with the black mud, felt the flow of the wind, and lay dormant quietly.

He is locating the direction of the wind and choosing the target position that can be hunted.

After waiting for a long time, until the smell of the black dragon lady on his body had almost dissipated, Caesar began to puff his throat.

"Ho, ho..."

Under the cover of thorns, the young dragon let out a few pig calls.
