Lao-Shan Lung
A giant dragon few have seen and lived to tell the tale. When on the rampage it wreaks havoc on all in its path. The guild has built a fortress to repel the beast, but will it hold?
The creature's weak spot is its back or the spine of the monster. Therefore, climb the ladders to the high areas along the monster's path of destruction and fire Bowguns at the monster's back to weaken it.
BradyGames, Monster Hunter Official Strategy Guide, 2004, p. 89
One of the race called "dragons", which descends from a different ancestor than the flying wyverns. It is the largest monster known, and it looks just like a moving mountain.
