Monster Hunter: I can accept monster quests

What? You're asking it what to do if the sheep doesn't agree?

Of course, I'll pin Him down and pamper Him!

In the Guiding Lands, the sheep that was giving the Lava Dragon a final rest suddenly sneezed so hard it nearly knocked over the stone statues in front of it.

He hurriedly reached out his claws to support him, and seeing Shi Tou Chen Yan smiling brightly, he couldn't help but open his palms and look at the already blurred map. Although he had long since memorized the way home, he still thought of looking at it every day.

Seeing the stone Chen Yan and the stone Sakura Dragon suddenly leaning against each other, Meimeizi suddenly felt irritated and let out a furious howl for no reason.

The roar startled birds and beasts within a hundred miles, causing them to scatter in panic. Even the lava dragon, with half its body lying on the ground and the other half submerged in water, trembled.

When Meimei noticed that Lava Dragon was looking at her with its eyes open, she glared back at it resentfully.

What are you looking at? It's all your fault, you volcano that keeps dying and dying but never dies!

It pounced on it again, scratching and biting twice, filling its mouth with stones and even scraping off a few pieces of volcanic rock. But these injuries were nothing more than superficial wounds to the Lava Dragon, so it let the little sheep play around.

After struggling for a while and calming down a bit, Meimei looked at the Lava Dragon, who had closed its eyes and was sleeping again, and roared once more, urging it to die quickly.

When we first arrived in the Guiding Lands, the Lava Dragon was barely alive, so why does it seem more energetic the longer it lies here?

When will the Lavasioth finally die?

When will He finally be able to absorb His legacy and transform into the Annihilator Dragon?

How much longer will He have to wait before He can see Chen Yan again?

...

"What? You're not only leaving, but you're taking all of them, big and small, with you?"

Chen Yan looked at the leader of the third team, especially at the large group of various environmental creatures and monsters behind her.

"Well, although I think I have a pretty good relationship with Namiwa Ryu, and he has a nice personality, anyone would get angry if they found out that all the figures they had painstakingly collected were gone, even if they had the best temper..."

Chen Yan looked at Long Ya with some difficulty.

Based on his understanding of Popoko, he probably wouldn't mind letting one or two figures escape, and he probably wouldn't be angry if ten or eight escaped.

But if all of these people were let go, Bobozi would probably turn into the Lord of the Torrents and throw water at him or strike him with lightning.

"Please! They are creations of nature. Although they have no worries about food and water while being imprisoned here, this goes against the way of nature. Once their energy and spirit are exhausted, they will eventually die of depression..."

Longya clasped her hands together and kept begging.

For some reason, a whole bunch of adorable soft-feathered waterhens around her started bowing, and several little bluebirds perched on her shoulders chirped a mournful tune, while the clever coral birds and elegant coral birds lay on the ground pretending to be pitiful...

Chen Yan glanced at the large group of fat, bloated monsters behind him. He couldn't tell if they would die of depression, but he could spot a few that were about to burst from being overfed.

Hey, you Odogaron, why are you hiding? I'm talking to you! Look at you, you're so fat, the wrinkles on your skin are all stretched out...

"Forget it, whatever. Let Popoko be angry. At worst, I'll stay and repay her debt by serving her like a slave... Sakura, Charizard, and Hana, get to work!"

Chen Yan swung his knife and shredded the large lump of "jelly" that Bobozi had left at the edge. As soon as the sealing stone that exuded the scent of Namielle disappeared, the monsters in the "amusement park" immediately became excited.

They swarmed to the entrance; those that could fly immediately spread their wings and flew away, those that could jump leaped down, and those that could run slowly slid down the cliff edge, inching their way down.

As for those that couldn't fly away, jump, or run, they were packed up and transported down by the Sakura Fire Dragon brand transport plane and Captain Flower Cat and First Officer Dome Cat.

In no time, the once bustling summit of the Coral Highlands was left with only two people, two cats, and one dragon.

Why don't you run?

Longya shrugged, about to say something about "responsibility," "duty," or "courage," when the ground trembled slightly.

Chen Yan didn't need to turn around; upon hearing the sudden, heavy breathing, he knew that the person in question had returned.

"Um, Popo-ko, let me explain..."

But Namibo Ryu felt his head buzzing.

He stared blankly at the empty peak, then turned his angry gaze to the only monster standing there, a large, uninvited Pink Rathian.

It opened its mouth and spewed out a large spray of water, but halfway through, Sakura's fire dragon lashed out with its tail, blasting it apart in mid-air.

Seeing that it still dared to resist, the Nami Dragon was furious. The multicolored light on its body went out and turned into a dark blue flash. As it flapped its wings, water vapor gathered around its body, water armor condensed, and the air at the top of the peak was so humid that you could squeeze water out of it.

Chen Yan and Long Ya, who have little fur, only felt their hair get wet in an instant. Although it had some impact, it wasn't too big. However, Hua Miao and Duo Miao, who have a lot of fur, suffered a lot. They turned into a solid cat group and struggled to move with their wet fur.

Sakura's Rathalos showed no fear in the face of the enraged Namielle.

It growled, spreading its wings to protect the people and cats behind it. The cherry-colored scales on its chest first turned golden, then quickly became translucent white, and sparks of blue and white appeared between its teeth. The humid air quickly dried up.

Even when he was behind Sakura's Fire Dragon, Chen Yan could still feel the extreme heat.

His and Longya's hair was dry again, and Huamiao and Duomiao's hair was completely dry too.

The environment on the top of the platform is both humid and dry, creating a stark contrast between water and fire.

"This white light, this temperature, this is clearly the Calamity Flame... You've even learned the signature move of the Golden and Silver Fire Dragons?"

Little Sakura Fire Dragon didn't turn around, but just swished its tail triumphantly. Although it had eaten countless unpalatable ores for this bite of Calamity Flame, Chen Yan's exclamation made all those ores worthwhile.

Just as the two dragons were locked in a fierce confrontation and about to come to blows, Chen Yan suddenly emerged from behind Sakura Fire Dragon, spreading his hands in goodwill. He wasn't there to fight Popo.

Upon seeing a strange human suddenly appear, the Nami Dragon became even more wary. However, the more it looked at him, the more familiar he seemed. It wasn't until Chen Yan made a gesture of embracing in the air that it suddenly remembered.

It was the person He met outside the ley line corridor who made Him feel very relaxed and comfortable!

He was also the person He had traveled all the way here to find!

The Namielle Dragon's hostility vanished, and it let out a joyful roar. Its tentacles shot out with lightning speed, grabbed Chen Yan, pulled him in front of it, and patted him with its short, thick claws, while affectionately nuzzling him with its head.

The uneven scales on his cheeks made Chen Yan very itchy.

Sakura Fire Dragon and Dome were stunned for a moment, then flew into a rage. They hadn't even figured out who was bigger or smaller, and now another one had come along to steal their person!

Seeing Sakura's and Domino's furious expressions, Namielle generously waved its tentacles and gave them the top of Coral Highlands, not even bothering about the runaway figurines.

He would be willing to trade Chen Yan for him!

Before the two cats and one dragon could react, the Namiwa Dragon tried to grab Chen Yan and run away.

Two cats and a dragon immediately stopped her, determined to teach this young lady the rules of first come, first served.

The water-swirling dragon has returned to its former state. It tolerated the dragon taking over its territory and letting go of the figurines it had painstakingly collected, but now it wants to steal its people, and it can no longer tolerate that.

The water-wrapped state reappeared, and the peak was once again shrouded in viscous water vapor. Little Sakura Rathalos was not afraid at all. Its pink scales turned golden, and it even took the lead in assuming a dragon chariot charge posture. Seeing that the two were about to fight again, Chen Yan quickly stopped them.

"How about this, let's have a competition. If we win, you'll do us a small favor; if you win..."

Chen Yan rubbed the tentacles of the Namielle.

"I'm yours now."

Chapter 202: The Match Begins!

After understanding what Chen Yan meant, Namielle Dragon readily agreed, as it was least afraid of sparring with people. However, Sakura Fire Dragon was not so willing.

Chen Yan originally belonged to it. If it loses and the person goes to Mingbolong, then who will it hug and lift up with in the future?

But under Chen Yan's reassuring gaze, it still whimpered and reluctantly agreed.

Seeing this, Namielle readily exited its Water-bound state, and Sakura's Charizard also turned off its engine and stopped.

As Namielle disappeared and reappeared, surrounded by dragon shadows of all sizes, the legendary five tyrants of the Coral Highlands gathered together.

The Kirin, second only to the Namiwa Dragon in rank, still looked down on everyone else, completely ignoring the chickens and dogs opposite it. Even more arrogant than it was the Dome, who knows how it could lower its chin to look at the other side.

The Bubble Fox Dragon, second only to the Qilin in rank, winked playfully at Chen Yan. Its charming appearance, reminiscent of a fairy dragon, almost made Long Ya's nose bleed.

The Zinogre, second only to the Fel Wyvern in size, looked around and, after confirming that there was no Nergigante on the other side, immediately stood up and bared its teeth at Chen Yan. After being glared at by the Rathalos, it immediately became docile and its fur stood on end.

The Flying Dragon, second only to the Thunder Wolf Dragon in size, is still round and chubby, cute and adorable, pouting and winking at the Flower Cat opposite it.

Flower Cat sneered, immediately opened its plum blossom claws, curled up its body, and perfectly transformed into a sesame dumpling that had been exposed. It even meowed sweetly. In terms of cuteness alone, it was no less than the floating dragon.

At the summit of the Coral Highlands, all sorts of monsters gathered, exchanging glances and subtle sparring. An unprecedented, earth-shattering, unparalleled, and timeless battle was about to begin.

On the left is the five-dragon bully team: Namielle, Kirin, Fungosaurus, Zinogre, and Levita. If you want strength, Namielle has it; if you want momentum, Namielle has it; if you want intimidation, Namielle has it... Whatever you need, Namielle is enough.

On the right is Chen Yan, Long Ya, Hua Miao, Duo Miao, and Xiao Ying's Fire Dragon Man Dragon Cat Warrior Team—they truly have real strength...

Out of courtesy, the Knights team let the Bullies team set the competition questions first.

After discussing it with his four younger brothers, Mingbo Long decided on the first competition topic, which was—

It's a contest of holding your breath.

The floating dragon floated into the battlefield without hesitation. Its eyes swept over the five "strange" people, dragons, and cats on the other side. It took a closer look at their thick, short necks and, upon discovering that none of them had an expansion and air storage function, it immediately sneered and hiccuped repeatedly in a provocative manner.

Who dares to fight it?

After discussing it, Chen Yan and the others unanimously agreed that holding their breath against the floating dragon was a sure way to lose. So, under the cunning arrangement of the humans, they decided to send out the weakest one, Duo Miao, to just pretend to lose.

But Dome disagreed. Seeing that Flower Meow was coming to pull it, it was instantly mesmerized by Flower Meow's electric eyes. By the time Flower Meow came to its senses, it was already standing opposite the floating dragon.

Quitting now is a loss anyway, so why not challenge its physical limits? Maybe it's a really good calico cat at holding its breath...

Flower Cat began to inhale rhythmically, slowly, and calmly, but when it saw that the floating dragon opposite it could take half a month to catch its breath in one breath, its mentality immediately collapsed. In the end, it could only hold on for two and a half minutes even though its lungs felt like they were about to burst.

Judging from the leisurely posture of the floating dragon, it wouldn't be a problem to hold out for another hour or so.

The bullies got off to a flying start, winning the match with an overwhelming victory.

Chen Yan and his team set a challenge. After a few whispers, they decided to send out the weakest player, Long Ya, to play Gomoku against the other team.

After the bullies understood the rules of the game, the Zinogre, whose brains were all muscle, was the first to take a few steps back; it didn't have the brain cells for that.

Kirin was quite interested, but did not appear at the signal from Namiwa Dragon.

After removing the Flying Dragon that has already been used, only the Foaming Flying Dragon is left to use.

Chen Yan and his group were somewhat disappointed. They had planned to lure out the second most difficult Qilin to deal with, but they did not expect that Mingbolong, though seemingly rough, was actually quite shrewd and saw through their little trick.

I thought the second game was a sure thing, but Longya won quite narrowly.

In the best-of-five series, Longya easily won the first two games, but then Paohulong caught up with the next two. If Longya hadn't risked using a killer move in the last game that would guarantee a win once it was formed, she might have actually lost.

Back in the group, Longya wiped her sweat with the soft fur of the Bubble Fox Dragon that had "mysteriously" fallen into her hand, gave Chen Yan a thumbs up, and the gesture seemed a bit too big, causing a few pink petal fin scales that had "mysteriously" fallen into her arms to fall out.

Chen Yan suddenly realized that he had inexplicably accepted someone's food and gifts, which was why they had let him win. No wonder he almost lost...

Although the victory was ugly, it was still a victory nonetheless. Namielle Dragon patted its somewhat dejected third underling with its tentacles.

Don't be afraid, watch out for your big brother!
