Chapter 579 Mother of Stone Dragons
"Oh, she's ugly, but she looks delicious."
The metallic silver figure looked at the monster in front of him with a "drooling" expression.
Zhixi shared senses with Lu Pingan these days, and enjoyed a lot of "delicious food", especially the petrified lizard was cooked by him in more than a dozen tricks, such as petrified lizard barbecue, longan skewers, halogen dragon claws, dragon whip sausage...cough Cough, in short, she had a great time cooking, but Lu Pingan might not have had a good time eating.
"This, you can eat it for half a year."
Subconsciously touching her metal lips, Zhixi showed greedy eyes.
Not far away is that monster.
Just looking at the appearance, she was still just a petrified lizard, but it was ten times bigger than the biggest one Lu Ping An had seen before.
And she has some obvious mutations.
The iconic pale pupils of the petrified lizard have turned golden yellow. There are two extra horns on the top of the lizard's triangular head, two new unicorn feet on the original limbs, and more scales on the body. Floral and flame motifs.
Just listening to the description, it is probably very holy, but her changes are incomplete, the scales of the fire cloud are intermittent, like a half-drawn graffiti by a child.
The new extra legs are underdeveloped, just like the deformed little hands hanging on the body, and even the dragon-like eyes are one big and one small, which abruptly makes this evil beast a little funny.
The whole creature, like a product of forced mutation to half, is full of distortion and discomfort.
"...It really is a 'dragon', Lu Ping'an, don't let it go!"
There are actually many subspecies of lizards in the extraordinary world. Ice lizards, salamanders, and petrified lizards are all very common species, and their potential and environmental adaptability are quite good.
As an extraordinary species, its biggest advantage is that many lizard species actually have a certain amount of "dragon blood", which is the lower subspecies of dragons.
In this way, if it advances to awaken the power of the blood, it is very likely to obtain a certain degree of "dragon attribute".
"Petrification rules? The petrified lizard is not worthy at all. It is actually a thin sub-dragon species, and it also relies purely on instinct to use its natural abilities. If it really improves, it should be biased towards dragon species. Only high-level pure elemental creatures can be awakened. High-ranking Element Control System Rules"
In terms of biological talent and evolution, Big Cat is an expert. She judged that the possibility of petrified lizards possessing petrification rules is extremely low. Most likely, they just awakened the "dragon" attribute.
"Tsk tsk tsk, you are the darling of another world. The world says you are a dragon, and you are a dragon, but your background is so rubbish that all dragons are born prematurely, which is a good target for hunting."
Based on Big Cat's experience, after awakening monsters with "dragon" attributes, the flesh and blood loot will be at least one level higher, and after crossing a large level, there will be a series of rare materials beginning with the word "dragon".
"Didn't it say that there is a law level, which is directly petrified? This is not a petrification rule?"
"Because it is a dragon, the petrification ability has also been improved."
"Is it so simple and rude? Then other abilities."
"Comprehensive improvement, look at it, at least 2 steps. Don't regard it as a weak person, the improvement brought by the 'Dragon Transformation' is comprehensive."
Even so, the big cat is still ready to move.
This is the 24th floor of the underground palace, and it is also the main battlefield where the current battlefield firepower is the most concentrated.
After Lu Pingan found the source of information, he went all the way down and lurked around the battlefield. He didn't try to get close to the battlefield, but the mother of stone dragons was too huge, and it was very eye-catching from a long distance.
"The improvement is comprehensive, especially in terms of vitality and physique. It is at least three times stronger than before. However, this is still much easier to deal with than the pure petrification rule. If it is really a petrification rule monster, I will advise you how far away it is." How far can you run? And now, perhaps, the third monster, you can consider the dragon card."
As soon as he said this, Lu Ping'an was also moved instantly.
At present, there are only three pits in the illustrated book of life, with Xiao Huomiao and Zhixi Zhuyu in front, and other monsters Lu Ping'an don't like it either.
Among the huge army in front of him, there are four or five giant petrified lizards that are one size smaller than the mother of stone dragons. They may be "children" with higher numbers, or they may be their spouses.
The most disgusting thing was that on the battlefield, the mother of stone dragons actually gave birth to large eggs, and then a dozen large petrified lizards crawled out of them.
Not long after they were born, they were growing against the wind while devouring the flesh and blood of their own kind.
"Is this also a dragon?"
"Dragonborn's standard equipment, in addition to the ability to reproduce (explosive soldiers), they have always been ridiculously strong."
There are the most human adventurers on the 24th floor. They have been driven to a dead end, and their condition is much worse than that of the fighters above.
On the battlefield, Lu Pingan also saw many stone statues. If they could not be de-petrified within 72 hours, they would be completely hopeless.
The main force of the monsters are all kinds of petrified lizards. To be honest, this kind of monsters are actually not difficult to deal with.
Their most deterrent attack method is "Petrified Gaze", but as long as the resistance is not too stretched, they will not be stared to death by the petrified lizards of the same level.
The low, crawling-based movement mode determines that its limit speed and explosive power are quite average, and the main way of killing is the bite of minions, and because it is always a reptile, most of the cases are also low-profile "tricycle charge". ", the attack is relatively monotonous and templated, pay attention to evasion and you will not be killed by it. Their mobility is too far from the real cat family, and they are not strong enough as a melee unit.
But if there are hundreds or thousands of basilisks on the opposite side, that's another matter.
Those countless pairs of petrified eyes glared at him. Even a powerhouse at the law level had to consider whether he would be unlucky and be stared to death accidentally.
Human beings form an array to protect themselves and help each other. Occasionally someone is petrified, and other companions will save him and treat him with anti-petrification potions. The main materials of petrification potions come from petrified lizards, and there are also potion masters among the adventurers. , this aspect is great.
However, if it's the petrification of that big guy, I'm afraid there is no way to do it with the anti-petrochemical medicines made first.
"Chris?"
Lu Pingan came down from a secret passage, and there were several lurkers around him, but none of them did anything.
"Don't move, wait, if you go up that thing now, you're giving away the head."
"But this goes on"
It can be seen that the situation is getting worse and worse on the human side.
Those newborn stone dragon lizards grow when they see the wind, generally twice the size of normal petrified lizards, and often have deformed dragon accessories such as dragon claws and dragon horns on their bodies, and their strength is obviously beyond that of normal petrified lizards.
This situation of exploding troops in front of you is not only disgusting, but also puts great pressure on the human side.
It's just that those newborn skink lizards seem to have relatively low IQs, and they are only driven by their mothers to approach the battlefield, and they don't have much advantage.
The current mother of stone dragons cannot produce truly intelligent monsters.
"...Don't worry, wait for a chance. You can't handle it now, and her evolution is not complete, and she is not in the best condition as a trophy."
The big cat's words made Lu Pingan a little helpless, do you still think that the mother of stone dragons is not strong enough?
But as a biologist, the big cat is also very interested in this "evolution", and is calculating how long it will take to complete the evolution.
"Six hours. This world really cares for her. Under normal circumstances, at least decades of evolution can be completed in less than a day. If she really becomes a regular-level sub-dragon species, the strength will be at least tripled, and the value of the loot will be doubled." At least tenfold!"
"...At that time, all the people here were dead."
But as soon as she reminded her, Lu Pingan also noticed that the mother of the stone dragon actually ate those newborns who failed in the ethnic competition while being born, and was directly swallowed by the mother dragon and turned into her flesh and blood again.
This weird and cruel self-eating method actually made her bigger and bigger, and the dragon's horns on her head were obviously getting longer and distorted.
Her scales were darker in color, and her size grew larger and larger.
She is still in the process of dragon transformation, trying to evolve into a real regular-level dragon species.
