Chapter 2475 Dragon Group
Soshiyan once heard Veronica mention that in addition to war machinery, the army of the ancient Ada Empire also had a large number of psychic beasts. It is the surface of the biotechnology of the ancient empire. The creatures they named after dragons are not "real dragons". There are still ancient records in some ancient virgin worlds. In the era when their race flourished, there once existed real dragons that could soar in the void with their wings. The star dragon.
“Well, there is this record, but it is only limited to a small amount of written records. Currently, the Royal Court does not have the corresponding technology. Therefore, although the Phoenix Holy Grail has been recovered, it does not mean that the Royal Court can create those There are only two ways to solve the problem of powerful psychic beasts. Send an expedition team to search the ruins of the ancient empire, or go to various virgin worlds or ark worlds to investigate to see if there are any records or corresponding technologies that have been handed down, or... There may also be some in Commorragh. Legend has it that some Haemonculi and the Beastmasters of the Arena still possess the creature manufacturing and domestication technology of the ancient empire."
"It seems that things are not that simple."
After the huge mountain dragons, there is a group of four-legged creatures that are half as small as them, but equally huge. They are somewhat similar in appearance to the mountain dragons. They also have long necks and tails, and stocky bodies, but the difference lies in their The heads are proportionally smaller, the necks are thinner, and they only have four legs. They come in groups and are huge in number. There may be hundreds at a glance, and the body size varies greatly between individuals. There are also differences between adult dragons. With the baby dragon between them, they ran happily among the dragons without any worry of being stepped on by their huge parents.
Outside the dragon group, there are dragon knights riding carnivorous dragons. Like shepherds, they maintain the formation of the dragon group and prevent them from getting too close to the sea. What they use to drive the dragon group seems to be a special horn that can Make a deep sound.
Most of these tamed dragons have no attachments. Only the six largest ones have war fortresses made of spirit bones on their backs. However, they are quite terrifying. These things are larger than large knights. The mechas are all big, and if a group charges, they can directly flatten a position with brute force.
“Your Highness, this is the Brachiosaurus. It is also the largest creature we can tame and the most important defensive force. Although they cannot spit deadly flames like mountain dragons, they can squeeze out stomach acid and spray it. To the enemy, their stomach acid can melt rock and steel. In addition, the Brachiosaurus also has a unique ability, that is, they will collectively emit a unique roar when they encounter threats from the sky. When emitted, it will become a deadly infrasonic weapon that can threaten enemies in an entire area, including the sky. Only by wearing spirit bone armor can you not be harmed. "
"Oh, this is quite powerful. "
After Brachiosaurus, there is Megalodon. This kind of dragon is smaller than Brachiosaurus, mainly because its tail is not long, the overall structure is stockier, the forelimbs are long and the hind limbs are short, and the neck is thick but slightly. Short, the head is covered with a layer of armor.
There are a lot of them, but they look very stupid, and they are very afraid of the dragon knights. They will crowd together if they are driven away a little. There are no war fortresses behind them, but some of them are equipped with platforms that can accommodate multiple people and small weapons platforms. Composite saddle.
"Megalodon is generally not used as a weapon of war. They are very stupid, but if there are two males in a group, they will fight, and they will fight to the death, so they must be divided artificially. Despite these shortcomings, they are the main source of wealth and food for the Linnaean Kingdom, and are also an important commodity. The meat of Megalodon is soft, juicy and has no peculiar smell. It is also very popular even in Comoros. Leather It can be used as building materials or clothing, and its bones are also very good tool materials after polishing. Their powerful teeth that can grind rocks are used as raw materials for making various handicrafts. Megalodon is the most commendable It's their head armor. When they fight, they hit each other's heads. But even if the skull is shattered, the head armor will not be damaged. This layer of material is extremely strong and flexible, and it is almost immune to all acidic substances. It corrodes and will not burn when thrown into the fire. It must be processed by special means. The governors of Comoros like to buy this material to make armor. The older the megalodon, the more the head armor becomes. It’s expensive.”
Soshiyang nodded. He had eaten various delicacies made from Megalodon meat last night. Indeed, the meat of this creature is not as rough as it seems on the surface, Ada. The livestock breeding technology is indeed a point that has been ignored in the past. "Is this kind of creature easy to raise?"
I have to say that Soshiyang is a little excited. If this kind of animal can be introduced into the human world, it may be possible to create a huge Economic value and social value, no matter how bad it is, more people can eat meat
In fact, it's not just dragons like this. Soshyan is also very interested in the incredibly high-yielding crops of the Barbarian Eldar. In a sense, he is already one of the most powerful people in the empire. He knows better than anyone else that compared to Among aliens, heretics and even evil gods, what really kills most humans is the most common concept - hunger.
It seems that since the establishment of the Empire, hunger has been a lingering shadow that has always hung over the heads of mankind. Even during the heyday of the Empire in the late Great Crusade, food and clothing were still the most important thing for most of the people of the Empire. The only pursuit, and after ten thousand years, the situation not only did not improve but got worse, so Soshyan was always thinking about this matter.
But I just don’t know how the meat ratio of this thing is, but looking at the majestic scale in the distance, Soshyan estimated that the size of the Megalodon group in the Linnaean Kingdom was more than 10,000.
“Back to Your Highness, it is not difficult to raise Megalodon. On the one hand, this animal has a very complex diet. They can even enter shallow seas to eat seaweed. On the other hand, the kingdom has a characteristic fast-growing species. Plant, this plant can grow to a height of six or seven meters in two or three days, and will die overnight after maturity, and the seeds will erupt back to the ground, but whether it is a fresh or dead Megalodon, It is edible. This plant has high nutritional content, but it is highly toxic. However, Megalodon is not afraid of it. They can eat more than ten tons at a time, and can even use this toxin to convert it into substances that are beneficial to their digestion. As for diseases, there are currently no infectious diseases in Megalodon. Only young children may be infected with some fatal diseases. Generally, the period from birth to maturity is about 6 years. Their main problem is fighting, so they must be monitored at all times. , and some young males have to be taken away.”
After listening to the introduction, Soshiyang knew that there was no chance. This creature requires too much feed and the maturity period is too long. For Ada, who has a long life. It may be short, but for humans, livestock that matures in six years is not very practical.
After Megalodon is Triceratops. This beast looks much smaller and is considered normal. Although it is still larger than a Leman Russ, there are so many of them that you can't even see them at a glance. situation.
According to Valentino Ravich, this creature is a very violent creature, but once domesticated, it is extremely loyal and obedient to its owner, so it is more suitable as a military weapon than Megalodon. , the Barbarian Eldar also designed a unique war saddle specifically for the Triceratops, which can be equipped with a closed shuriken cannon or laser cannon, and additional protective gear to protect the more vulnerable parts of the Triceratops. To put it simply, they are The "tank" of the Savage Adas.
