Chapter 846 Maca and "Arrogance"
"...Maka, wait a minute! Don't hit her."
"'she'?"
"Yes, she is already a mother, and she fought with another woman just now. If she accidentally hurts her now, the baby in her stomach will be in danger..."
Luna's speech was somewhat unbelievable, and even Maca was quite puzzled—is this longhorn pregnant? How did she know?
It is difficult to see that the fire dragon is pregnant. Because their body bones are particularly strong, even if a female fire dragon has a dragon egg in her belly, she can still live as she pleases on weekdays.
And perhaps because of this, fire dragon eggs are very precious, and the premature death rate of young dragons has never been low.
But according to their mother's virtue of flying around all day long, the hatching rate of the eggs is still so high... This is already a symbol of strong vitality.
It's just that although Maca had doubts in his heart, he quickly put all his thoughts aside. Since Luna would say that, she, who never lied, naturally had her reasons.
Maca intends to listen to her this time.
"Don't do anything, this dragon may be pregnant with dragon eggs, I think this may be one of the reasons why she is so irritable."
Probably because Luna used "she" to refer to the Longhorn just now, so Maca subconsciously said the same. But no matter how you call it, Maca agrees with the cause of the rage.
Think about it, wasn't even Aragog's wife, Mosag, the acromantula, also grumpy when she was pregnant? If it weren't for the acromantoid family not having such a strong body like a fire dragon, Mosag would probably drink a few mouthfuls of spider venom before talking about other things when he saw everyone.
Just a reminder, Maca didn't even look back—he didn't have the time to look at Charlie's colleagues now, even though those wizards and wizards were shocked for a while because of his impeding spell. Jump.
Right now, in front of his eyes, the long-horned dragon was no longer surprised by the "little bug" that suddenly rushed in front of him, and quickly rushed towards him.
Wanting to restrain an angry fire dragon without hurting its body, Maca's first thought was naturally the magic related to the rules of the soul.
Seeing this, Maca first pulled Luna behind her back, then suddenly took out her staff and swung it abruptly.
Suddenly, a transparent rune outline flashed in front of him, and a mysterious and obscure aura spread from around him.
This was his first attempt since he had fully analyzed this rune under the Bewitching Monument. Even though his understanding was still superficial, it could be regarded as the threshold for truly stepping into the threshold of the second-level rule rune.
At this moment, it was difficult for Maca himself to describe the feeling - does this represent true excellence? Or does it represent an affirmation of oneself?
Or, is the rune simply a sign of self-satisfied superciliousness?
Now he knows that soul rules are divided into several branches, and the same is true for runes. What Hai Erbo penetrated was one of them; and what he, Maka McClain, initially mastered was also one of them.
If he had to sum up the true meaning of this piece, he could use one of the "Seven Sins" to roughly describe it, and that would be "arrogance".
But at the same time, if you want other people present to describe his aura...
"What does that feel like? Why am I afraid to look at him?"
"Strange, me too... what did he do?"
Behind Maca, Charlie's colleagues were all whispering, but their heads were unbelievably lowered, as if they couldn't look directly at Maca's back.
However, they are not the only ones who dare not look directly at Maca at this moment?
And look at the female Longhorn directly in front of Maca.
Not to mention it didn't dare to look directly at Maca, even its body seemed unstoppable, and it crawled down unconsciously when the spiritual struggle was still erupting in its heart.
However, the Maca that caused all this,
Instead, he felt a little strange - he just outlined the runes with magic power, and he didn't do anything himself!
Seeing that the effect of the second-level rule was stronger than he had imagined, Maca was surprised and quickly stopped the supply of magic power.
Until then, everyone present, including a longhorn dragon, immediately felt the invisible pressure just now disappear suddenly.
But even without the kind of suppression that was almost beyond instinct, the longhorn dragon, which is more sensitive to such changes in rules, no longer presumptuously, but obediently squatted in place and secretly aimed at Maca.
But Luna, although she is the closest to Maca, has not changed much from the beginning to the end. It's just that she has been standing behind him all the time, and Maca didn't realize this.
In fact, besides the female Longhorn as the target, the one who felt the deepest at this time was Maca herself.
This first attempt with the fire dragon as the target really made him realize the mystery and power of the second-level rules. And this kind of thing, if it is not necessary, he does not want to use it lightly.
To be honest, he didn't feel it when he used it just now, but now that the effect is lifted, he feels a huge psychological gap.
"I always feel... I don't seem to be suitable for this rune?" Maca said to himself in his heart, "The secret is the legendary 'incompatibility'?"
Speaking of which, this is actually not a good time to think about problems. He just thought about it for a while, and then turned his attention to the long horned dragon on the opposite side again.
But it was his glance that actually made the originally ferocious fire dragon shrink its neck back.
After thinking about it, Maca simply pointed at the cave not far away.
"Let's go back!"
It is said that fire dragons are actually very intelligent, but the ferocity and brutality deeply rooted in nature make it difficult for them to communicate.
Maca didn't know whether this statement was correct or not. He only found out—whether the Longhorn understood his gestures or really understood the words, and suddenly turned around and walked towards his body without looking back. The lair went.
Seeing that the big guy didn't show any signs of coming out to kill the carbine again, Maca turned around again and looked up and down at Luna who was protected by him behind his back.
"Are you okay? Also, how did you know that the dragon was 'pregnant with a baby'?"
After Luna, who was staring at Maca and observing curiously, heard it, she gave Maca an answer that was both unexpected and reasonable.
"I can understand what she's thinking..." She blinked her eyes, seeming a little happy, "Some magic books in the library have taught me a lot, it's really interesting."
Reminded by Luna's words, Maca immediately remembered the scenes of seeing her in the Hogwarts library several times. And without exception, she was looking at some magical theories about the mind.
But... can those documents that are limited to the analysis of Legilimency really enable an ordinary underage witch to understand the heart of the fire dragon?
"Tell me about it when you go back, and I want to hear it too."
"Oh well!"
For Maca's request, Luna answered very readily, as if she had been looking forward to discussing these new gains with Maca from the very beginning...
While the two were talking to each other, Charlie's dozen or so colleagues also came over. It can be seen that, including Charlie who was far away from here before, everyone has a lot of doubts on their faces.
Leaving aside the strange experience that seemed to be an illusion just now, just the picture of a fire dragon obediently returning to the cave is enough for them to hesitate.
Regarding this, Maca could only secretly admit that it was a mistake, but on the surface, he had no intention of explaining to these people at all.
"Everyone, there is nothing wrong here now. It's just that there is another longhorn dragon that was injured and left here just now. I think you'd better catch up as soon as possible—"
"Uh, no... no need," a tall and thin wizard who seemed to be the leader explained hesitantly, "Natalia mentioned that there is another team over there who is in charge of processing... um, I don't know who you are? "
Seeing him ask, Charlie took the initiative to introduce: "This is the current professor of ancient runes at Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Witchcraft. I think you must have heard of it, the room manager. He is Maca McLean!"
"Oh! It's Mr. McLean—"
The wizard whom Charlie called the head of the room seemed relieved immediately.
"I didn't expect you to come to our dragon farm... Is it a visit? Just now... it's thanks to you! Mr. McLean, Ripa—ah, I mean, the longhorn just now was really pregnant ?"
Seeing that this guy suddenly became extremely enthusiastic, Ma Kadang even understood that the room chief knew a lot about his deeds.
"I think it should be so," he continued, "but it's really difficult to tell whether a female charmander is pregnant. I believe my husband understands this better than me..."
In the case of unfamiliarity, it is always right to have a wave of business bragging first. And taking this opportunity, Maca can also take advantage of the slope to get down the donkey as soon as possible, to dilute some of the abnormalities just now.
And the head of the room cooperated unexpectedly, and didn't mention those things at all.
"It's just a trivial understanding," he nodded repeatedly, "To be honest, we have been studying many behaviors of female charmants during pregnancy, but we can't find any effective rules... Oh, Mr. McLean must be Do you want to continue to visit? We also have to try to observe the situation in the cave first, so I won't disturb your interest for the time being..."
Maca can't wait to turn around and leave now! Hearing what he said, he quickly left and took Charlie, Natalia and Luna to meet Hermione and the others.
After they all left, the other researchers and trainers, who had been holding back all this time, finally couldn't bear it anymore, and asked why the room chief suddenly didn't say a word about the situation just now.
But the head of the room immediately waved his hand.
"You think I really don't know who will come to visit today? Don't stand so far away, come closer and listen to me..."
