Chapter 640 Mad Dragon Virus and Limiting Individuals
"Has the situation in Jieyun Village deteriorated to this extent?"

Faced with Yunxiao's sudden and respectful request, Guta just frowned, and said softly: "Even if you have already reached the senior level of natural disasters, are you still not sure how to deal with it?"

"This incident is far more serious than outsiders imagined."

Yun Xiao looked dignified, and spread out the rough map in front of him, "Although you may have heard that three black erosion dragons appeared near Jieyun Village, and a large area of ​​monsters turned into crazy dragons, but in the details There are actually some differences.”

"This incident was the most severely affected, and I also privately believe that it was the origin of the mad dragonization incident in the whole continent. It is [Sinard Village] not far from our cloud formation, that ancient village close to the wonders of the mainland [Sky Mountain] .”

Pointing to a special mark on the map with pale fingers, Yun Xiao continued: "But for some reason, after the initial disaster spread, those black erosion dragons left the range of Sky Mountain in a very short period of time. , scattered all over the mainland."

"And among them, as a stronghold relatively close to Sky Mountain, most of the monsters near Jieyun Village have been severely eroded by the mad dragon virus, including several ancient monsters that have survived for a hundred years."

"I am alone, even if I am defending Jieyun, I have tried my best... The guild tried to send high-level hunters to support, but I refused."

"If it is not a hunter above the senior natural disaster level, Lai Jieyun will just die."

Swiping his fingers across the densely packed red marks on the map, Yun Xiao solemnly looked at the ancient pagoda in front of him: "These are all extremely alienated individuals after being infected. The range has increased, and the weakest ones have initially reached the level of natural disasters."

"The hunters of the ancient dragon group who are strong enough basically have their own tasks and cannot be dispatched. The only one I can think of is you, Guta."

"Sorry, I'm blind, I really can't read the map." Guta sighed suddenly, and said helplessly.

Yun Xiao, who was originally looking solemn, also realized his mistake at this time, and hurriedly coughed to try to resolve the embarrassment.

"However, I basically understand the general situation, and it is indeed much worse than I expected."

As Guta talked, he turned his head to look at the location on the second floor, "Since we're all awake, let's come down and listen."

Behind the gate, a group of people scratched their heads in embarrassment, and then went down the stairs obediently.

"Although I have heard that the mad dragon virus can greatly improve the physical fitness of monsters, I didn't expect that even ordinary monsters can use this to break through the limit of race."

Gu Ta sipped the cold tea in his hand, and said, "This way of breaking through the limit should be very expensive, right?"

Nodding his head, Yun Xiao directly explained: "Excluding those individuals with insufficient strength, the extreme individuals who broke through the limit of the race under the influence of the mad dragon virus, each body has a different degree of mutation. And according to the investigation report of the guild , it can be basically judged that while their personalities become violent and bloodthirsty, their vitality is rapidly decreasing periodically."

"But before their life spans are completely exhausted, Jieyun Village, which is under heavy siege, may be completely destroyed because of their fighting with each other."

"Is it the way to improve life?" Guta nodded thoughtfully.

As if thinking of something, Yun Xiao hesitated for a moment, and said, "However, according to the latest survey by the Longli Institute, it seems that there are also a small number of extreme individuals who have basically overcome the effects of the mad dragon virus, and their lifespan has not been affected. Too much impact."

"Of course, the strength of those special cases is also far stronger than that of ordinary species. The strongest ones even seem to be approaching the taboo field. Even [Dragon Magician] Lina, who is the top three, failed to win."

Speaking of this, Yun Xiao's brows were deeply frowned involuntarily.

"I always have a feeling that perhaps the real purpose of the mad dragon virus is to allow creatures to break through the limits of their race, but this is a bit unreasonable. It is impossible for those black erosion dragons to be so kind, to help other monsters break through."

"Furthermore, among the Black Corrosion Dragon individuals that have appeared so far, the strongest ones are hovering at the level of senior natural disasters. Judging from the effect of the mad dragon virus, they have far exceeded the limits of their capabilities."

"Have you investigated the breeding method of the black erosion dragon?" Suddenly, Guta said.

Yun Xiao was taken aback for a moment, not knowing how to answer this question.

Nia on the side kept up with Guta's train of thought and asked, "Guta, do you suspect that those black erosion dragons enhance the strength of other monsters for the purpose of breeding offspring?"

Shrugging ambiguously, Guta said, "It's just a guess. Do you still remember the cub of the deformed ice shark we encountered?"

Miejue and Jojo raised their heads curiously at the same time.

Weiwei shivered involuntarily, "Those little monsters that grew up by sucking the blood of other creatures?"

She has always been unable to accept such weird things.

Guta twitched the corner of his mouth and said softly: "I was wondering, could those black erosion dragons also rely on parasitic reproduction?"

"Impossible?" Weiwei leaned her head on the table and said with some disbelief, "There are no signs of parasites on the dragon-like creatures we encountered, either?"

"Maybe it's just that the time has not come, or that certain conditions are not met." Guta didn't say anything dead, and quickly added: "Of course, there is still relatively little information at present, and I am just providing a way of thinking, no It must be accurate."

"But no matter what, this matter must be investigated. Just like what Village Chief Yunxiao said, it is impossible for the black erosion dragon to infect other creatures for no reason, and even improve their strength in disguise."

"This does not conform to the basic logic of biological evolution." Guta said word by word.

"I always feel..." At this moment, Mieji who was quietly at the side suddenly said, "The black erosion dragon is very similar to the ancient pagoda."

"Huh?" Several people looked at the girl curiously at the same time.

Tilting his head and thinking for a while, Mie Jin explained in a low voice: "Isn't the ancient tower doing the same thing recently...enhance the strength of other monsters, so as to obtain their improved abilities through [trading]."

Although Yun Xiao didn't quite understand, Nia, Qiao Qiao and even Wei Wei beside her immediately showed thoughtful expressions.

"Hey, hey, mine is an ability, it's not the same as the black erosion dragon." Guta held his forehead helplessly, wanting to disassociate himself from the black erosion dragon.

"No, no, I suddenly remembered what Nia told me... the black eclipse dragon is also blind and has no eyesight. This is exactly the same as you, Guta." Shoulder.

"I think your skin is itchy again." Slapping Weiwei's palm away angrily, the corner of Guta's mouth twitched.

"Ancient Pagoda, also known as 'Little Black Erosion Dragon'! Huh, huh..."

Pulling Weiwei's cheek with one hand, Guta ignored the big red-haired idiot who slapped the table vigorously to signal that he would admit defeat, as if thinking of something, he suddenly said: "When this idiot interrupts me, I want to Come up with a detail."

"Huh?" Everyone cast doubtful eyes at the same time.

"The black erosion dragon seems to be the most common four-legged and double-winged skeleton among the ancient dragon species. Although the upper and lower limits of strength are outrageous, but if they are really ancient dragons, will the mad dragon virus be caused by them as ancient dragon species?【 authority】?"

"This may explain why the mad dragon virus they spread has such a powerful effect and infectivity."

Consciously looking for some ancient towers with ideas to break the game, he said in an erratic tone.
