In gaming terms, ten points of strength for a human and ten points of strength for a giant dragon are not the sa, since there’s a ’Performance Coefficient’ between different species.
This coefficient causes the individual strength of species to vary.
If the Performance Coefficient is 1 for humans with the sa attribute value, then for so other species, it might be 2 or even higher at 10.
When two different species have the sa strength level, but different Performance Coefficients, the being with the higher coefficient will completely overpower the one with the lower coefficient in terms of actual displayed strength.
The minimum baseline isn’t ant to make those special creatures seem invincible. This dragon’s body strength still allows it to move freely and even fly, but certainly not as powerfully as in its original world, with its original ’strength and defense coefficients.’ In the fire dragon’s world, many hot weapons might be useless, but in this world...
After a round of artillery fire, this fire dragon wouldn’t be taken out on the spot, but it also wouldn’t stand well afterward.
Although the strength Performance Coefficients differ between species, such disparities can be bridged with certain techniques, such as combat skills that enhance lethality, and other fighting skills.
Let’s not talk about permanently raising one’s base strength and Performance Coefficient. As long as one can burst out with an incredibly high coefficient enhancent in an extrely short amount of ti, crush the enemy, and kill them, that’s enough.
This dragon, even in the Environntally Adjusted world, still has a strength and defense coefficient far exceeding the human standard.
But looking at the dragon getting beaten up miserably, it’s clear that it wasn’t just an instantaneous burst that got it like this, but rather a continuous burst that hamred it into this state.
This made Ahn Seven think of Extraordinary Beings. Zheng Yichen might possess so kind of extraordinary ability that significantly enhances physical strength and the Performance Coefficient.
"I am Klakauska, don’t forget," the fire dragon said, glancing at the human woman in front of him with a gas mask, slightly curling its lips. Being beaten miserably by Zheng Yichen didn’t an it would defer to another human, especially not to a fragile-looking woman wearing a gas mask in a volcanic area.
If it hadn’t been for being beaten by Zheng Yichen until it was swollen and in pain, it would not be talking so cordially. Zheng Yichen was beside them eating and had not left, so it had no choice but to listen carefully to what the fragile woman was saying.
What annoyed it was that the terms the woman offered were the sa as those of the previous foolish humans, with only a slight increase in specifications. If Zheng Yichen hadn’t been there, it would have taken a deep breath again.
As Ahn Seven spoke, the fire dragon’s eyebrows lifted slightly. This woman introduced him to so information about this world, which gradually sparked so interest in him. Well, mainly it was the demonstration of certain weapons that got his attention.
He saw a soldier wearing an exoskeleton armor blow up rocks with a nearly two-ter-long gun.
Its tail could smash those rocks, but it did not want to be hit by an attack that could blow them up.
If it got hit by such an attack, wouldn’t its body end up like when Zheng Yichen beat it, bruised and battered?
"Hmph, such an attack, thinking it could hurt a giant dragon is a dream... well, if not for being in this world, such attacks really wouldn’t hurt a giant dragon," the fire dragon muttered, holding its arms, admitting that the gun could pose a threat to it.
There were also other things Ahn Seven said, that such weapons were just one of the mass-produced ones, and if she wanted, she could bring over a hundred or even more equipped with those weapons, and there were even more exaggerated ones to use against him.
Whether her words were true or false, the fire dragon would have plenty of opportunities to find out later. But to show sincerity, she had arranged for a single powerful Hunter to co and negotiate with him. To use those types of weapons would not be negotiating; it would be hunting.
The word ’hunt’ annoyed the fire dragon, but if what the woman said was true, thinking about facing hundreds of those weapons...well, never mind, getting beaten by Zheng Yichen was better by comparison.
After having his fill, Zheng Yichen suddenly asked Ahn Seven and the fire dragon after their negotiation, "Can you transform into a human?"
```
"Transform into humans?" The fire dragon looked at Zheng Yichen with a puzzled expression. "Why would I want to beco a human race that is weak in all aspects and not good-looking?"
The aesthetic standards between species are different. Orcs may not find elves beautiful, and elves don’t think orcs are handso, unless the two races live in the sa environnt and their cultures highly integrate and accommodate each other’s aesthetic preferences.
"Just asking, if there’s nothing else, I’ll be going..."
"You cannot leave," Ahn Seven said, glancing at the fire dragon. She knew that while Zheng Yichen was there, the fire dragon would remain docile, but once Zheng Yichen left first, the fire dragon might not be so docile: "Co back with , and then we can discuss further cooperation."
The fire dragon failed to grasp the implications of Ahn Seven’s words. He had no intention of causing trouble. So things had already been agreed upon, and he was curious about what Ahn Seven had proposed. Would he not have endured this beating in vain if he simply ran off now?
Moreover, the weapons Ahn Seven described made the fire dragon feel this world was quite dangerous.
In his world, there were magic cannons and the like, but such weapons were high-end and not available everywhere. In contrast, the powerful weapons in this world seed easy to produce. He had sought refuge in a volcano to avoid detection, which had allowed him to dodge the developnt where modern weapons battled against magic and giant dragons.
But if he didn’t conceal his tracks and road around carelessly, he would inevitably get bombarded by cannons and missiles sooner or later.
Ahn Seven was well-prepared. Given the fire dragon’s large body, she had arranged a modified, oversized ’RV’ for transportation.
Zheng Yichen looked at the vehicle that resembled a moving building. He rembered seeing such vehicles only in mining areas. The wheels were each as tall as two n, a massive mode of transportation: "Can this thing really go on the road?"
"Moving bases are not that rare of a vehicle," Ahn Seven explained calmly, looking at the giant vehicle that could fit a fire dragon inside.
"I am not well-versed," Zheng Yichen admitted, retracting his gaze. The inside of the vehicle was spacious, but the fire dragon’s size still filled it up completely. There was just enough room for it not to have to curl up pitifully, but it couldn’t make any large movents either.
With the dragon inside, Zheng Yichen wouldn’t be surprised if so chanisms popped out in the vehicle.
But Ahn Seven clearly had no intentions of doing anything like that.
"This dragon has adaptability, and I plan to absorb him into the hunters group," Ahn Seven told Zheng Yichen about how they intended to handle the dragon. It was possible to study the dragon without engaging in destructive research.
Regular blood samples, body scans, and cleaning scales and trimming claws would suffice. More detailed research? If the material obtained from the procedures ntioned above didn’t yield any significant results, there was no point in discussing further ticulous studies.
Keeping the dragon might bring more benefits. In future explorations of extraordinary phenona, the dragon could play a massive role.
Its ability to fly and its sheer presence as a dragon could be quite intimidating.
"Telling this is pointless, let’s talk about our cooperation directly," said Zheng Yichen.
"Certainly," Ahn Seven said with a light laugh, pulling out a docunt bag. "This is what my side can offer you."
Zheng Yichen didn’t understand the Ahn family’s research and resource channels imdiately. He had been an ordinary person and was not privy to the matters at Ahn Seven’s level. He put the docunt bag away: "I don’t have the eye to appraise these resources."
"You can go to the bartender," Ahn Seven suggested without surprise, then added, "Our cooperation largely involves dealing with things from other worlds. These alone will maintain our cooperation."
