Monster Hunter: I can accept monster quests

A pair of blue eyes stared intently at the approaching cave, while its wide wings constantly adjusted its direction to make it fly in one go.

It's Teostra!

It's the Flame King Dragon who never comes back earlier or later, but only after Chen Yan goes inside!

Teostra had an extremely thick tail in its mouth, seemingly having gone hunting across mountains and valleys. Judging from the unique shape of the trophy, it was clearly a fresh Bazelgeuse tail!

not good!

Chen Yan is in danger!

Harley and Mrs. Horned Dragon exchanged a glance and simultaneously understood what the other was trying to say.

Both the person and the dragon were somewhat surprised, as if they hadn't expected that she and the dragon could think of the same thing.

Mrs. Horned Dragon patted the baby Horned Dragon, and when it turned around, she gently pried open its mouth. Meanwhile, Harley crumpled the Flower Cat into a ball and stuffed it into the baby Horned Dragon's mouth the instant it opened it.

The baby horned dragon, with the flower-shaped fin in its mouth, blinked its eyes. Although it didn't understand what its mother dragon and Harley were going to do, it obediently followed Harley's gesture and turned to dig deeper into the sand.

Harley climbed onto Mrs. Triceratops's back, which was much wider than the baby Triceratops's.

The man and the dragon waited patiently for a while longer. Just as the Teostra was about to enter the cave, Mrs. Horned Dragon leaped up from the sand and roared at the Teostra in a provocative manner.

Upon hearing the monster's roar, Teostra immediately demonstrated its top-notch flying skills to the man and the dragon.

Its broad wings spread out instantly, and its massive body came to a stop at the cave entrance in just half a second. In the brief moment of stillness, its four feet extended and its sharp claws dug fiercely into the rock wall.

Although it was hanging upside down at the cave entrance, under its almost perfect physical control, except for the mane hanging down its neck, its posture was exactly the same as standing on flat ground.

However, when Teostra saw that it was a horned dinosaur with its fangs bared, its previously wary expression instantly relaxed.

You, a mere "earth dragon" digging in the ground, dare to challenge a "lion" soaring through the sky?

Teostra, preoccupied with its mate, was too lazy to pay any attention to the "earth dragon" below, and didn't even have the urge to go down and slap it to death.

The horned dragon, a land-dwelling flying dragon, is made entirely of horn and bone, with hardly any meat scraped off. Even if it were offered to the horned dragon and the roma dragon, neither of them would necessarily be willing to open their mouths.

Seeing that Teostra was ignoring Mrs. Diablos, it was Harley's turn this time.

She raised her hand and fired a flashbang directly in front of it. The flash, which was enough to blind the fire dragon, only made the teel king dragon squint slightly.

When the flash went out, Teostra glanced at the Diablos below, its eyes slightly red. Normally, it would have roared and pounced down to kill any creature that dared to provoke it, but not this time.

Lunastra is about to give birth.

The period around childbirth is when Lunastra is most vulnerable and powerless. At this time, Lunastra may not even be able to defeat a Rock Golem. As Lunastra's husband, I must protect her.

Just as He was still ignoring the horned dragon and Harley and preparing to go back into the cave, a huge piece of anthill slammed into Him with a whoosh—it was Mrs. Horned Dragon who threw it!

It threw it with extreme accuracy and speed. The Flame King Dragon only had time to raise its left foreleg before the fragment of the ant mound hit its foreleg, causing it to shudder. The force of the blow surprised even the Flame King Dragon.

Even though it's nearly 100 meters away from the sand, how can something that's head-on feel so heavy?

Upon closer inspection, this horned dragon that dared to provoke it was clearly different from others. This piqued the interest of the Teostra. If it were fed to the Lunastra, would it please the Lunastra, which had been in a bad mood lately?

Thinking this, he stuffed the Scaled Dragon's tail into the hole, the size of which was just right, blocking it completely.

Once she was sure no dragon could break in and disturb the Lunastra, she spread her wings and swooped down towards the Horned Dragon.

Having achieved her goal, Mrs. Diablos was not about to foolishly engage in a fierce battle with a powerful Teostra. She quickly burrowed into the ground and fled into the distance at top speed.

The Teostra, which was catching up quickly, naturally ignored Harley, who was hiding in the corner, dressed in an invisibility cloak and carrying stones.

After the Diablos and Teostra had gone far away, Harley looked up at the tightly blocked cave entrance.

"How can we rescue Chen Yan now?"

Chapter 159 This hardworking husband, you didn't want this either...

Chen Yan was still unaware of what was happening outside the cave. Sweating profusely and soaked to the bone, he was hiding behind a rugged rock, "observing from the shadows" and "locking his gaze" on the heavily pregnant Yan Feilong.

He truly never expected to witness such an extremely rare scene.

I originally thought that the Elder Dragons Teostra and Lunastra were here to roam the Wildspire Waste, wreaking havoc and destroying the ecosystem, but it turns out they're here to lay their eggs.

Why didn't they go to the Elder's Recess instead of the Dead Recess? Is it because there are too many powerful monsters in the Elder's Recess?

However, this "Great Ant Mound Wasteland Villa" is actually quite well built.

Entering from a cave entrance a hundred meters above the ground, one must first traverse a winding mountain path that rises and falls, then cross a flowing lava river several tens of meters wide, where a lava dragon dwells, before finally arriving at this incredibly spacious and luxurious lair, complete with a security guard standing at the entrance.

This nest, large enough to accommodate two ancient dragons, is located near a volcano, with an inexhaustible supply of fresh lava. Various minerals are also densely packed on the exposed mountain walls, enough for them to eat for a year and a half.

Moreover, every corner was filled with crystal-clear ley line energy crystals, and judging from the claw marks at the base, they must have been broken and transported from the Dragon Crystal Land by Teostra.

All these factors suggest that even if Chen Yan were to become the Flame King Dragon, he might not be able to do as well as Him.

What attracted Chen Yan the most were the various monster tails that were scattered everywhere, some with only a bite or two left. There were not only the common monster tails, but also some strange ones.

For example, there's the charred tail of the Pukei-Pukei, the tail of the Skaven that's not even as long as the fangs of the Lunastra, and even the uniquely flavored tail of the Great Jagras.

He also saw an ancient dragon's tail being held tightly in the mouth of a Lunastra, grinding sparks with a crunching sound.

Judging from its metallic sheen, it was clearly the tail of a steel dragon, covered with scratches and teeth marks, obviously being chewed on by a Lunastra.

Ok?

Steel Dragon's tail?

Could it be that the mysterious Steel Dragon that wandered into the Wildspire Wasteland was seeking revenge because its tail was bitten off, leaving it with a bald tail, and it was counting down the time until the Lunastra was about to give birth?

It seems that it's not just humans who crave special foods during pregnancy; Gu Long is no exception.

Poor Teostra...

Now that it's clear that the Elder Dragons Teostra and Lunastra came specifically to give birth, Chen Yan guessed why they didn't kill the baby horned dragon in one hit earlier—they were probably clearing out the area.

Drive them away but don't kill them. Let the panic spread among the monsters, thus creating a safe zone for them where they won't be disturbed by monsters.

Chen Yan pondered the hilt of the sword. At this moment, the weakness of the Luna was visible to the naked eye. He could hardly feel any heat on its body. If he wanted to avenge the little horned dragon, now was the best time.

Can...

The Lunastra in the New World are much fiercer than those in the Old World.

She is extremely rude to all living beings, even her mate, Teostra. It's common for her to do things for her husband and beat him when there's nothing to do.

Occasionally, you can see the heartwarming scene of the Lunastra and Teostra couple snuggling together in the sand, basking in the sun.

Chen Yan was quite envious of their simple, lovely, and harmonious marital relationship.

He also knew that when Teostra or Lunastra were in trouble, Lunastra, as the wife, or Teostra, as the husband, would step forward to help.

Even when facing the "Ancient Dragon Slayer" Nergigante, they are not afraid at all. Under their combined attack, even the stubborn Nergigante has to run away.

Finally, Chen Yan let out a long breath and released his grip on the knife hilt.

"Alright, it's not easy for you two to come all the way to the Great Anthill Wasteland. Let me sacrifice myself to comfort the injured little horned dragon."

Chen Yan turned around and walked out quietly. Suddenly, the image of the little horned dragon half-covering its body with its wings that night flashed into his mind.

"Speaking of which, the little horned dragon's pose that night was quite alluring. Who taught it that? If I hadn't seen Mrs. Horned Dragon peeking from behind, I would have pounced on it..."

Lost in the allure of the moonlight, Chen Yan was completely unaware that he was about to step on a piece of dry scales.

...

The Teostra, which had chased the dinosaur for over a hundred miles, had never encountered such a cunning horned dragon in its life.

Its speed in the sand truly refreshed His understanding of the species of horned dinosaur; it was incredibly fast, almost as fast as Hisself when flying in the sky.

What's even more infuriating is that, despite its ability to dive deeper into the sand and disappear, it deliberately stays in the shallows and uses its tail to lash the sand, leaving a very obvious gully.

Is it because He is afraid He cannot see it?

However, if it wanted to attack with fire, the horned dragon would always disappear at the last second before it could open its mouth, leaving the teeming dragon with a mouthful of flames in a dilemma.

If you vomit, you can only burn a patch of sand; if you swallow, you feel like the horned dinosaur will swim up at any moment.

Not to mention its absurd sand-trajectory path.

It's like, "I know you're predicting where I'll swim next, and I know you know I'll predict where you'll predict where I'll swim. So, since we're both making predictions, guess whether I'll turn left, right, dive down, or jump up next?"

Actually, Madam Dragon learned this movement technique from Chen Yan, but she didn't expect it to be so useful for Qi Flame King Dragon.

Diablos are really tough to deal with in the desert.

Teostra's concern for Lunastra gradually overshadowed its desire to hunt this special horned dragon. It flapped its wings and stopped abruptly, not even glancing at the horned dragon that had poked its head out to provoke it below, before flapping its wings to return.

But Mrs. Horned Dragon clearly didn't want Him to go back.

What He might see is, "This hardworking husband, you wouldn't want to come home to find your wife being..."

To save her family, Mrs. Horned Dragon lifted a huge anthill and threw it at Teostra with her tail.

Teostra turned around and unleashed a burst of fiery pillars. The pure flames contained extreme temperatures, burning through the anthill in milliseconds. The raging pillar of fire surged toward Mrs. Diablos without any damage.

However, Mrs. Diablos had anticipated this. She nimbly burrowed into the sand and disappeared without a trace. The enraged Teostra simply used the sand to vent its fire. The pillar of fire scorched the sand and melted it, creating a huge, glassy crater.

After He extinguished the fire, He saw Mrs. Horned Dragon watching the show not far away, nodding her head and swaying her body.

He now finally understood that the horn of the horned dragon was not the horn of a horn, but the cunning of a cunning dragon; this was clearly a cunning dragon!

The Teostra clenched its teeth, and specks of crimson dust drifted from its mouth. Upon seeing this, Lady Horned Dragon immediately became alarmed and once again adopted a fleeing posture.

Although the Teostra was somewhat annoyed, it also knew in its heart that a mere horned dragon was not worth it using its killing move "Supernova".

After using this move, it needs to consume a huge amount of burning coals to accumulate enough explosive dust for the next "Supernova". During this time, it cannot even condense its flame armor. "Supernova" is the last move used to protect Lunastra.

He planned to scare the horned dragon away and then return to his nest.

Teostra flapped its wings and swooped down with its massive body. Its eyes were fixed on the horned dragon, analyzing its possible evasive paths. Its wings, muscles, and bones were taut, ready to make slight adjustments to change direction at any moment.

To its surprise, this time the horned dragon, which was extremely adept at escaping, did not flee.

Mrs. Diablos's cautious gaze was instantly filled with a long-suppressed rage. She had never forgotten that it was this damned Teostra that had bullied her cub!

It fled for hundreds of miles, pretending to be only good at running away, all to lure the Flame King Dragon into a trap!

Finally, they lured Him down!

Chapter 160 Mrs. Nana, please don't see me off!

Faced with a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity, Mrs. Diablos roared, swung her body on all fours, and spun around to gather power. Then, she transferred all her kinetic energy to the black tail axe behind her by stepping on the sand with her limbs.
