🎁🌲 Merry Christmas 🎄❄️
Lao-Shan Lung
“ Only on huge islands or mostly on mainland continents has a giant dragon been spotted. The harm it produces is similar to that caused by a natural disaster, and it occasionally prowls near populated areas. Nobody understands why it wanders sometimes, and its habits remain a mystery. Where they show up, the Avengers have erected defensive obstacles, but to what purpose?”

The Lao-Shan Lung (Montanodraconis gigantus) is the one of the species of Elder Dragon introduced in Monster Hunter 1.
Lao-Shan Lung's name in all languages is derived from the Chinese word for "Old Mountain Dragon" (老山龙/老山龍, Lǎo Shān Lóng).
A large Elder Dragon species with a body length of nearly 45 - 75 meters. The head is small for a large body, and the long neck and tail occupy about half of the whole body. It is a crocodilian-legged quadruped drake, with a well-developed red shell and a single horn on its head. Its mouth has small teeth with several larger teeth on the outside.
Lao Shan Lung lacks any sort of elemental or special abilities. In near-death experience mode, Lao Shan Lung generates chaos energy from the mouth and energy stored in its body. Despite never utilizing it for combat, it has some Chaos Element energy stored in its body, hence it often being Chaos-elemental.
Earthquakes 🫨 - From its immense size, Lao-Shan Lung can cause damage to settlements just by simply walking.
Like many other Elder Dragons, Lao-Shan Lung has been around since ancient times and has been documented throughout history. Lao-Shan Lung is believed to feed on minerals, ores, insects, livestock, pine cones and even there are scavengers, also eat carcass; however, because little is known about it, a lot about its ecology is still correct. This dragon lead to bad luck on hunts with five or more for survivors or tames, with many hunts leading to the death of comrades in the end, but the sociologists and psychologists need to clarified the Lao-Shan Lung's curse forwards the monks.
From its enormous size, Lao-Shan Lung has no creatures to fear, but it has been reported that it seems to fear some kind of powerful monster like Safi'jiiva, Radachalog, Gochdraig, Alatreon, Rathalos, Magnamalo, Stinkmink, Kushala Daora, and Fatalis; but many scholars don't believe in that old fairy tale and historical records. Though much is still unknown about the species, such as the juvenile form of a Lao-Shan Lung and their breeding habits, the ecologist is certain that those individuals are already mature. There are simply juveniles that haven't reached adulthood yet, but that is far from the truth.
It takes a long time for this shell to form on its body and it is estimated that the individuals encountered are about a thousand years old, showing how long this process takes. Unlike other Elder Dragons, Lao-Shan Lung lacks wings and breath-based attacks, which is considered to be unusual for an Elder Dragon, but its sheer size makes up for that. Exception during its near death, Lao-Shan Lung unleashes the form of cloud of Chaos element in their mouth to bite causing Violated.
The Lao-Shan Lung is extremely docile even when facing multiple foes. It appears to care little about survivors or creatures like Iopreys, it was fought it with the Rathalos, a real male saurischian wyvern that breaths fire, as it mainly ignores them while on its way to the town Fortress. That said, it will put in a great deal of effort to break the fort rather than simply run away.
Lao-Shan Lung can survive in many environments, but prefers mountains and volcanic areas due to the high amount of minerals there. Lao Shan Lung was one of the invasive characters invade both Poland to Papua New Guinea in uncertain times.

Before getting onto Lao-Shan Lung's back, you wait for it to kneel. If you give it some meat or minerals, it will take off, but don't worry—you won't fall. Turning to the third party, it clenched its back. After the initial feeding, wait a short while before feeding it again.
Alternatively, to tame it, survivors must steal Lao-Shan Lung's egg. The kids must be fed any kind of milk after hatching from these eggs, which can be obtained from a variety of sources.
It is likely the multidimensionally regulated organization known as the Time Variance Authority that allowed Lao-Shan Lung and other fauna from another world to enter the "Sacred Universe", as Harry Osborn and his friends at Oscorp discovered with the help of the Avengers Tower members. It is still unknown where these creatures from Monster Hunter's fauna came from. The godlike hominids known as the Isu, were born with superhuman skills, primarily without the use of physical magic, but with the capacity to predict the future. This is unless the unidentified character known as He Who Remains, a variation of Kang the Conqueror, sent these animals into the cosmos to challenge the Isu species.
He Who Remains introduced numerous species to this universe in the prehistoric era after winning the terrible Multiversal War brought on by his own variations. Because of the gravity and oxygen constraints, he reduced the size of Monster Hunter's animals. All Elder Dragon species' skills were significantly nerfed, and he received help from Arishem and Uatu to have Monster Hunter's animals change into their own versions of themselves.
Project Pashneia was the Terran branch of Deities' scientific effort to make any creatures—animals, monsters, or humans—in terms of their own to be used as builders. Lao-Shan Lung was the ultimate weapon they produced.

Lao-Shan Lung is one of many monsters to have its theme remixed at the Monster Hunter 5th Anniversary Orchestra Concert.
One day, the Guild had to find hunters because of a Lao-Shan Lung approaching for their town. It was later found out that said Lao-Shan Lung was running away from a Fatalis or Radachalog.
