Chapter 1233 1215. ‘Trapped’ Gu Long!

The scales and skin of Yanwanglong itself are dark red, but the temperature on its body is too high, causing the surrounding air to become heated and shiny, and shiny scale powder will fall from time to time.

This gives people the illusion that it is a vibrant red color.

Lan En's body was covered with a fireproof mist layer caused by [violent sweating]. The Flame King Dragon was heavy, but because of the structure of the cat's claws, its footsteps passed by him silently.

Its claws didn't make much movement, but the mass, which was more than twenty meters long, moved on the ground, shaking it no matter what it did.

When passing by a person, this kind of vibration will remind the person's body: there is a scary big guy next to you.

But Lan En has become accustomed to the giant things around him.

Smaug's body length is more than 140 meters, so what? Not to mention the Molten Mountain Dragon, and the skeleton of the Ancient Snake King Dragon in the Valley of Miasma.

The flames are still raging in the base, and many houses have collapsed because they have lost their load-bearing capacity.

Fortunately, there are a lot of open spaces in the base, so Lan En can walk around as he pleases.

The flames were burning, and the heat stirred the air to make a whirring and explosive sound.

Humans and ancient dragons passed each other, walking in opposite directions without interfering with each other.

And when Yanwanglong followed the smell and entered the arena built by natural cylindrical rock walls.

A loud, but not explosive, explosion came from inside, and spread all the way up the cylindrical rock wall, releasing rumbling sound waves toward the sky.

That was the sound of the gunpowder dust raised by Lan En using [Alder's Seal] and immediately ignited by the high temperature after the Flame King Dragon entered.

However, because the strict sealing environment of the explosive barrel was lost, it did not cause an explosion, but only burned violently.

Mixed in the sound of the violent burning of gunpowder was the lion-like roar of the Flame King Dragon.

This was not a sound of hurt or fright. On the contrary, the sound revealed surprise and comfort.

And just after it was confirmed that Yanwanglong had completely entered the arena.

"Bang bang!"

Two rounds of ammunition were fired from the light crossbow in Aiden's hand from the outside of the fire scene.

The ammunition, which was standardized by the craftsmen in the workshop area of ??the second phase of the New World Survey Corps, had propelling tail inflammation at the tail, and passed Lan En's side.

The ammunition penetrated the swaying curtain of fire and directly hit the two explosive barrels that he had placed beside the arena gate just now, with only a little corner exposed!

"boom!!"

This time it was a serious explosion!

During this period, there was also a 'clicking' sound as the rock at the arena gate broke structurally and crashed down.

Aiden, wearing only the shirt under his armor, ran in with his light crossbow on his back.

His face, which had been burnt red, was full of anticipation and surprise.

"Is it done? Is it done?"

Deep in the base, the originally rough and strong gate collapsed into the shape planned by the biochemical intelligence brain in the face of the impact of the explosion and the 'force defects' prepared by Lan En in advance.

Large rocks fell and piled up, and the displaced air formed wind, which was wrapped in fine sand and dust and temporarily swept away the surrounding flames.

The entire door was completely shattered and piled in its original position without falling apart.

From inside the arena, which was already blocked by large pieces of rubble, a heavy crashing sound was heard.

Then there was a roar like a lion, but the momentum and volume were completely incomparable.

This time, the roar was laced with pain and anger.

The roar vibrated from the cylindrical rock wall, echoing throughout the valley.

A group of people who were evacuating in the distance looked worriedly in the direction of the burning base after hearing the sound.

Inside the base, Aiden looked at Lan En, who was also smiling excitedly, a little confused, "What are you doing in there?"

"What can I do?" Lan En chuckled, "It must be the rock trap on the head. The rope net holding the rocks can't withstand the high temperature of the Yanwang dragon and it falls."

"I just adjusted the position of the rockfall trap towards the place where the gunpowder powder is scattered. I didn't expect it to really hit it."

"Ah?" Aiden suddenly became even more confused, "Then it won't run away after feeling pain, right? We want to confine it here!"

Yes, there are limits. In other words: trap the ancient dragon!

This is something that no one in this world has ever done, or even thought about.

The ancient dragon is the top of the ecological chain, a life like a god.

Even to repel the ancient dragon, only the top hunters are qualified to form a team to take on the mission, and the success rate is not high.

Therefore, an out-of-standard hunter like Wen De can handle various ancient dragons individually and repeatedly.

Only then would he become the ace among the Hunter Guild's aces, and let the entire fifth-phase fleet wait for him at the port of the Old Continent for a week.

But even so, so far, the only record of an ancient dragon being killed by a human is the Celestial Dragon.

There is no need to talk about capture.

And now, the two hunters want to trap the Flame King Dragon in this arena!

"I don't think its obsession with gunpowder would make it care too much about being hit by hundreds of tons of rocks."

As Lan En said this, he used Alder's Seal to suppress the flames spreading around him. Because Yanwanglong was isolated in the arena, its remaining heat began to gradually decrease.

"How about we go take a look?"

Aiden suggested, scratching his short mohawk.

Of course Lan En agreed.

Although the two people braved the heat wave, they still ran to the collapsed arena gate with great interest and expectation.

When these large pieces of gravel were smashed down, they were almost compacted by gravity. Only at the bottom, there was a gap big enough for humans to crawl in between the large pieces of gravel and the rocky ground of the valley.

Aiden wiped his face and was about to lean forward and look inside.

But then, Lan En grabbed him and took several steps away.

As soon as I walked out of the direction facing the gap, "Boom!!"

The scorching firelight overflowed violently from the gap like thick water.

The rocks were burned red and shiny under the flames, almost losing their solid form.

The flames only spurted out for a few seconds!

But after Aiden and Lan En saw the flames, they raised their eyebrows.

"Did you hear the flapping of wings?"

"No, did you hear that?"

"No! It's done!"

The two people bumped their fists and both put on happy smiles.

It is undoubtedly very difficult, even impossible, to capture the ancient dragon alive.

Not to mention that Yanwanglong still has wings, and the cylindrical mountain wall of this arena has no ceiling. If it wants to, it will flap its wings and go out.

But Lan En dared to be the 'King of Ideas', and the key to proposing this idea to Aiden was that he felt that the Flame King Dragon might not want to run away in this situation.

After all, there is indeed a lot of gunpowder here that it likes to smoke and eat.

It's a bit hard to break open the door and burn the rocks blocking the door into lava, and it's also a bit hard to fly upwards, but if you stay still, there will be a lot of gunpowder to eat.

Yes, Lan En and Aiden are unable to trap the Flame King Dragon here and unable to leave.

But they can create some obstacles for Yanwanglong to leave, and create some nostalgia that it likes, so that it doesn't want to leave.

No matter what, as long as it stays in a fixed area for a period of time, isn't this equivalent to being 'trapped'?

"We two are so awesome!" The enthusiastic and cheerful members of the fifth group raised their hands and cheered, "This is trapping Gu Long! Let's report it to Xingchen as soon as possible!"

"Whether it's this Yanwangsaurus or its hobby of gunpowder, this is a great discovery in ecological research!"

In the arena, the angry roar of the Flame King Dragon, which was hit by a falling rock trap, gradually faded away.

After all, that little bit of damage seemed to be nothing to it, and it might not have been hit accurately at all, just a scratch on the skin.

This was followed by the comfortable purring sound of the feline.

Obviously, the pleasure caused by the powder in the arena is much greater than the irritation caused by the falling rock trap.

The latter let the Flame King Dragon roar, breathed fire and passed.

Is gunpowder like catnip to it?

Lan En was still very research-minded and prepared to stay and listen to the news for a while. After all, he had studied at the Ecological Research Institute of the survey team for a period of time.

But Aiden still couldn't hold back the heat in the flame.

He dragged Lan En and walked out.

"Hey, don't get excited now. It's business to report back to Xingchen!"

When they walked out of the burning base again, the base was almost completely burned down.

But both Aiden and Lan knew it.

Compared to the two of them using the environment of the arena to temporarily 'trap a Flame King Dragon', setting up the entire base would be a huge profit!

If it were in other worlds, then the leaders of the investigation team might care about material loss, division of responsibilities and powers, etc.

However, in the New World Survey Team, there was no loss of personnel this time, and only some materials were lost to figure out a certain ecological habit of an ancient dragon.

And also 'trapped' it.

Everyone will be really happy about it.

The Commander-in-Chief, a dark-faced man who looks hard to offend but actually has a good temper, could be considered serious if he didn't laugh on the spot this time.

Aiden and Lan were like friends who had completed an 'idea'. Although they were tired and hot, they still talked and laughed and moved forward to catch up with Tissaya and the others who had earlier retreated into the distance.

"Speaking of which," Aiden wiped his sweat and suddenly asked in confusion, "Why is Yanwanglong so obsessed with gunpowder? Although the flammable rocks in the wild are not pure, they can still burn."

"Maybe the taste is different?" Lan En guessed irresponsibly.

"Yang Yanlong is carnivorous. The investigation team's gunpowder formula uses a lot of gunpowder herbs and the scales of Exploding Dragon Fish and Exploding Goldfish, right?"

"It doesn't have these in its usual diet."

"It is indeed a reasonable conjecture." Aiden nodded at Lan En's novel statement, "You can discuss this idea with the director of the Institute of Ecology."
