Under the Red Dragon

In the end, Kalon suppressed this idea that was so wonderful and attractive to him, and he struggled to pry open his eyelids, which seemed to have developed a will of their own and wanted to close.

Then, he shook his head to clear his mind, causing a ripple in the river of lava.

He crawled out of the cave where he had temporarily taken refuge and swam upstream through the excavated tunnel.

The dragon's powerful body allows them to survive in all-weather environments, and red dragons are especially at home in lava rivers, swimming through the lava faster than fish in the ocean.

He even took the time to grab several rare minerals and precious gemstones that were born in the volcanic lava as he swam up.

He swallowed these gemstones into the dragon's unique storage stomach, and then, with the help of the lava fire stream spewing upwards, Kalon swam out of the long lava tunnel in no time, popping his head out at the entrance of the original volcanic basin cave.

After a period of accumulation, the dried-up basin now had enough lava to cover the red dragon's lower body.

He leisurely paddled around in the lava lake, stirring up countless tumbling heat currents, and then he flapped his wings and flew to the edge of the basin.

Although the activation of the dormant volcano didn't cause a major disturbance under Kalon's deliberate control, the changes here still alarmed the other young dragons.

The thick clouds of volcanic ash that accompanied the gurgling lava had already enveloped the top of the mountain and spread along the wind direction above the sky.

Many scattered volcanic ashes stained the nearby mountains and the plains at the foot of the mountains with a layer of gray, and these gray volcanic clouds also frightened some creatures, who ran wildly for their lives on the grassland.

Fortunately, the forest near the foot of the mountain had been cut down and cleared in advance, forming an isolation zone, otherwise it might have caused a mountain fire.

Two blue dragons, Dos and Akxz, were flying in the sky, and the blue dragons who controlled the storm and thunder worked hard to disperse the gathered gray volcanic clouds.

They drove these volcanic clouds to higher skies and then dispersed them as much as possible, so as to reduce the impact of the volcanic ash clouds on this land.

This movement not only alarmed the young dragons, but also the dragons' familiars were watching at the foot of the mountain.

These dragon familiars were all aware of the reason for the change in this volcano, only the power of the red dragon could create such a movement.

However, although they were also very curious, the summit of this high mountain belonging to the dragon group was forbidden to other creatures.

Even those loyal dragon familiars could only set foot there when summoned.

The other young dragons stood in the distance on the top of the mountain and watched, and after confirming that it was the red dragon who spontaneously induced the change, they moved away from the crater that exuded steaming heat and the smell of sulfur.

Although these young dragons could also survive in the crater, they did not enjoy the smell of sulfur like the red dragon.

Only the female red dragon Klenaya happily came up, looking at the constantly accumulating and rising lava lake with a greedy expression.

"Kalon, your lair looks very comfortable, can you let me in to see it? Maybe we can share the same lair as we did when we were hatchlings. Don't worry, I will never disturb you."

Kalon couldn't help but find it amusing to see the little female dragon, who had always been grumpy, now looking so flattering.

The red dragon, who usually acted like 'I'm the second, Tiamat is the third', now looked especially ridiculous, like a little dog wagging its tail to beg for benefits, trying to put on a pitiful look in her vertical pupils that were inherently filled with the dragon's inherent indifference.

But Kalon didn't want another dragon sleeping next to his bed, he didn't like other creatures approaching him when he fell asleep, which made him feel insecure.

He knew how tempting a lava lake was to a red dragon, second only to treasure.

But for Kalon, the lair was an extremely private space, he would rather share the treasure with the dragon group, but he would never allow another dragon to touch his lair.

So the red dragon refused the little female dragon who looked particularly flattering, even though Klenaya's body had reached nine meters after being baptized by the blood of reversion.

But in these days, with sufficient food and energy supplements, Kalon's body had reached twelve meters.

Compared to Klenaya's streamlined figure, his particularly strong body made the female red dragon indeed just a little female dragon.

"Klenaya, you need to know that asking a dragon to share a lair means challenging that dragon. Could it be that you have now become so inflated that you want to challenge my power?"

Kalon flexibly stood up using his hind limbs, the hind limbs he used frequently were particularly developed, and his wide wingspan stretched out to more than twenty meters.

Even though Kalon's thorn-covered cheeks did not show any threat, his huge size and stretched movements still carried a terrifying sense of deterrence.

Of course, Klenaya didn't want to challenge the red dragon in front of her, it was just that the red dragon's greed for a very suitable lair made her want to make a little attempt.

She shrank the dragon's long neck, "I'm your sister, Kalon, so when you're not in the lair, I can always come here to enjoy it, right?"

"Oh, are the five-colored dragons playing the kinship card?" Kalon looked at the little female dragon in surprise. Although he thought it was a change for the better, he didn't entangle with Klenaya any more.

He pushed the female dragon in front of him away with a little force from his wings, which were wider and thicker than ordinary dragons, and said in a deep voice: "Work hard, Klenaya, take care of those newborn dragonkin monsters for me, maybe one day I will help you divert the underground lava and let you have your own red dragon lair."

The female red dragon was coaxed away by Kalon's simple words. He was about to fly away to find food and patrol the territory when the blue dragon Dos, who was dispersing the volcanic ash clouds above the sky, landed and walked over with his wings folded, obviously having something to say to him.

Kalon had no choice but to stop helplessly and stood where he was, "Dos, do you also have something to say to me?"

The blue dragon Dos stopped in front of Kalon, his forehead had obvious scratches, obviously the blue dragon was a little troubled after starting to learn how to manage the territory's logistics these days.

Dos habitually stretched out his dragon claw to scratch his horn and sighed.

He said: "Kalon, according to your idea, many powerful carnivorous and ferocious species on the grasslands and forests have also become the spokespersons of the dragon group, so the amount of food consumed in the territory is a lot."

"Plus, the current dragon group is all young dragons, who need to eat a lot, and those dragonkin also need to ensure their food supply."

"Currently, the food resources in the territory have begun to be unable to bear the consumption of the dragon group. If the animals on the grassland are over-hunted, they will move to other places."

In fact, no matter where it is, it is rare to see other kinds of carnivores in the territory of some carnivores.

In the past, these dragons in the dragon group's territory often hunted those powerful carnivorous and ferocious species, because if the carnivores in an area gathered too densely, it would cause serious damage to the environmental ecology.

Food cannot be adequately supplied, after all, for carnivores, their targets are some herbivores, and the growth of these animals takes time.

Kalon nodded. After returning to this land, he had been busy building a defense system and rectifying his lair, planning to build his lair into an airtight fortress, which caused him not to notice this problem.

"Then what are your thoughts, Dos? I want to hear your thoughts." This problem is just a small problem in front of Kalon, but he doesn't want to directly propose a solution.

He hopes that the dragons in the dragon group will also grow up, and it would be even better if they can be on their own in the future.

As the owner of the dragon group, the king of this golden land, he and the former Carthaginian Empire Emperor Charal Caesar were completely opposite in their approaches.

The Emperor of the Carthaginian Empire, Charal Caesar II, had an extremely strong desire for control, liked to hold all power tightly in his hands, and control others.

He would not easily delegate power to his subordinates, so the pressure on the empire's subjects was extremely great, which was due to personal character.

But Kalon preferred to control himself. He accepted everything that was about to happen and welcomed such challenges. He didn't even care about the separation of power.

Because in his eyes, as long as he can continue to be strong, he can easily suppress the dragon group and the familiars. In the face of strong power, everything can be reversed.

And if there is no power, the power that is valued is just a castle in the air. Of course, maybe there is also the most important reason, he is relatively lazy.
