Monster Hunter: I can accept monster quests

Only Flower Cat knew.

That's not for drinking, it's for applying.

These two unlucky guys don't want to think about anything right now, they just want to find a comfortable place to relax, take a long nap, and recover their strength.

Visiting Fox Dragon's house is a good choice; it offers food, drinks, and visual appeal.

But when they crawled to the beautiful coral tree where the floating dragon had been healed the day before, a monster with a mournful face suddenly rushed out from behind the tree.

Before Chen Yan and Hua Miao could even manage to pull out their knives, the bruised and swollen monster with no hair on its neck plunged headfirst into Chen Yan's arms.

Chen Yan, who was in a period of severe weakness, was immediately knocked to the ground. The uneven stones hit his lower back, and Chen Yan gasped for breath, but still couldn't help but let out a wail.

"It hurts, it hurts so much! Flower Cat, please help!"

Just as its good brother, Hua Miao, was about to help, the hilt of Chen Yan's dropped katana grazed its lower abdomen. The extremely slight stimulation caused Hua Miao's expression to change rapidly, and it finally rushed towards the nearby coral reef without looking back.

"Chen Yan, hang in there! Just a little while, I'll be right back!"

Only when Chen Yan beneath him stopped moving did the floating dragon raise its head in confusion.

It's so pitiful.

The wound that I stitched up yesterday has reopened. The neck that I applied ointment to remove the bruising is now covered in purple bruises again. The burnt blood that I finally managed to scrape off has now spread all over the area again.

Several half-dead lightning insects were hiding in its wrinkled neck pouch.

It was sleeping soundly in its nest last night when it encountered that Zinogre again, or perhaps it was found by that Zinogre once more.

The Thunder Wolf Dragon still had no intention of killing it; it simply turned it into a ball to vent its anger on once more, slapping it around in the air until it was on the verge of death before letting it go.

It almost died again.

But the cat, which had miraculously survived, now had its big eyes filled with confusion. Why did it feel like this person and that cat were going to die before it?

Finally, the task bubble in his mind woke Chen Yan up.

[The Floating Dragon issues a quest request: Save my life again!]

My stomach is so hungry, my wound hurts so much, my body feels so heavy... Someone please save me!

[Compensation for the service: Air bomb/echolocation/rubber outer skin/weak self-healing]

One person, one cat, and one dragon—each more miserable than the last.

After spraying water, the flower cat lay on the ground, struggling to pull at the neck fur of the floating dragon. Chen Yan also lay on the ground, struggling to scrape off the scabs while applying medicine.

The floating dragon also lay on the ground, gnawing on the shriveled and unpalatable coral eggs while enduring the pain to heal its wounds.

The scabs weren't scraped off as cleanly as last time, the ointment wasn't applied evenly, there were still a few small patches of bruising under the skin, and the stitches were done with thick, haphazard stitches.

As for food, the cat, unable to jump, chose to sacrifice its head by crashing into a tree, knocking down a number of fresh coral eggs.

After several twists and turns, I finally managed to complete the quest that the floating dragon had issued again.

The task bubble dissipated, and the wheel reappeared. Chen Yan desperately wanted "weak self-healing," but things didn't go as planned, and the pointer eventually stopped on the rubbery outer skin.

Sparse, warm currents surged forth, and Chen Yan felt them desperately rushing towards him, merging once more into the giant tail.

The giant tail, which had been numb, suddenly felt a sharp, needle-like pain—not just a description, but the real pain of being pricked by a needle.

"It hurts so much! It hurts so much!"

The floating dragon, now healed again, inhaled and wobbled as it rose to the surface, taking one last, careful look at Chen Yan and Hua Miao before disappearing.

Hua Miao dragged the half-dead Chen Yan through thorns and brambles, bringing him alive to the stream.

Instead of the wild fruits and fat fish of the Foeosaurus, they were met with a magnificent roar of renewed battle!

What happened today is so similar to what happened yesterday.

The raging ravine surged and churned, creating a sky full of foam!

The dragon's shadow flickered, carrying with it a torrent of lightning!

Zinogre and Foeosaurus are facing off again!

The returning Zinogre somehow managed to recharge the Thunderbug while it was enveloped in bubbles, transforming it into a "Super Electric Thunderbug" that emitted a strong blue light.

It was able to successfully enter the "supercharged state", with its silvery-white fur standing on end and its yellowish-brown carapace wide open, wrapped with amazing blue electric arcs.

They look very intimidating, and they are very intimidating when they fight.

Undeterred, the Bubble Fox Dragon blended seamlessly into the foam and the raging ravine, using the ravine, which was now almost twice as wide, to continuously spray high-pressure water jets at the Thunder Wolf Dragon.

It would also occasionally use its tail to pick up huge underwater rocks and hurl them at the Zinogre, hoping to severely injure it when its claws were covered in foam and it was unable to move freely.

However, the Zinogre, which is very adept at attacking with its forelegs, cannot be defeated by these few rocks and splashes of water.

It had already deeply inserted its hind legs into the ground to prevent slipping, and raised its left and right claws high. No matter what came at it, whether it was water or stone, it could not withstand a heavy slap.

As for the lightning insects it flung out or the electrical energy it emitted, they were easily swallowed by the bubbles, without producing a single spark.

Despite the changes in the Zinogre, the Foliodon, with its advantageous terrain, still holds the upper hand, just like yesterday.

However, to turn an advantage into victory, the simple ranged moves of the Fomigula are not enough, unless the Zinogre goes berserk and charges into the ravine or the Fomigula recklessly rushes ashore.

So despite the earth-shattering battle between the two giant beasts, their unscathed bodies suggest they weren't really planning a fight to the death.

However, this time the Thunder Wolf Dragon's exit was much more dignified than yesterday's.

It roared at the Bubble Fox Dragon, seemingly indicating that it would return tomorrow. Then, before the water jets could reach it, it nimbly leaped and disappeared behind the coral bushes.

As a giant pink tail swept across the sky, the bubbles dissipated, and the Bubble Fox Dragon stared solemnly at the spot where the Thunder Wolf Dragon had disappeared.

The Zinogre that can control Thunderbugs to generate electricity is a completely different monster from the Zinogre that cannot.

If the change in the width of the stream hadn't been unexpected, the Zinogre might have had the upper hand today.

When the battle ceased, its two cubs emerged from the water, trembling.

Chen Yan straightened up and looked at Pao Hu Long with some anticipation, but when Pao Hu Long turned his serious gaze to him, all that remained was joy and tenderness.

There was nothing else.

"No way, you can tolerate this? You have such a good temper!"

Chapter 116 Joining Forces

After enjoying the full set of Soothing Dragon services, Chen Yan finally recovered.

Now he finally had time to look at the second quest reward given by the floating dragon.

[Task completed.]

【Rubber-like outer skin】: Your original giant tail is now wrapped in a layer of dark red rubbery soft skin. The soft skin has weak defensive capabilities and is still afraid of all kinds of weapons, but it has some resistance to flesh spikes, flesh eggs and so on.

Chen Yan thought of the floating dragon's tail.

"If you had come sooner, I wouldn't have suffered so much..."

Two baby bubble lemurs supported him on either side of the water as they watched the adult bubble lemur throw stones into the dam to fill the gap.

Flower Cat diligently jumped around, and it also helped pile up stones. When Bubble Fox Dragon took a short rest, it picked up the bag of wild fruits and threw a few into its mouth to help it recover its strength.

When it squinted and drooled over the sour fruit, I quickly held up the small bottle and went to greet it.

When it comes to making money, Hua Miao is exceptionally enthusiastic.

With its careful feeding, it quickly collected a considerable amount of "import-export grade lubricating and moisturizing fluid".

After collecting about ten bottles, Flower Cat put them away contentedly. Soon the dam was repaired, and after leaving a mark to warn other monsters, the person, the cat, and the three dragons slid back along the stream.

Only after they disappeared did the dragon shadow standing on the mountainside in the distance leap down, seemingly oblivious to the drop of tens of meters, landing smoothly without even needing to lower its raised ring and little fingers.

High mountains and steep ridges are like flat ground to it, and the blue and yellow scales covering its body give it a natural camouflage color. Not to mention the eagle-eyed Bubble Fox Dragon, even the clever Flower Cat did not notice that it had taken in everything from beginning to end.

The agile Zinogre leaped and climbed several times to reach the edge of the dam. It slowly approached and looked down at the ring of fine foam in front of its paws.

The marks left by the bubble-skinned lemur were not frightening to it; what truly concerned it were the black scale fragments on the foam.

She lowered her head and sniffed, her round pupils narrowed slightly, her body tensed up slightly, and she lowered her raised "orchid finger".

The more it smelled, the more confused it became, as the unfamiliar monster's pheromones allowed it to glean some information.

In its mind, it conjured up a powerful monster that was jet black, enormous, and exceptionally ferocious, but none of the three creatures—the man, the cat, and the dragon—could be compared to this monster.

Except for that fat cat, whose fur had some black on it.

It scratched at the ground in frustration and couldn't help but let out a few low growls. The sound attracted several lightning insects, which flew out from the coral reef, burrowed into its fur, and joined the lightning insect family living inside.

The Thunder Wolf Dragon has never been a cowardly dragon.

Aside from facing the Storm Dragon.

It finally raised its front paw high, slapped the foam to pieces, swatted away the black scales, and swaggered into the territory of the Bubble Fox Dragon, looking at the peculiar dam with great interest.

After jumping back and forth and up and down several times, it finally figured out the principle. No wonder it always disappeared for a while before fighting with the Bubble Fox Dragon; it turned out that the upstream sluice gate had been opened to release water.

But knowing it doesn't mean it intends to destroy it.

It's a Zinogre that never resorts to sneak attacks!

Even when hunting, they would swagger towards their trembling prey with an imposing aura, and then deliver a swift and powerful death.

Besides, fighting with the Bubble Fox Dragon is the only game it can play to pass the time.

After taking a few more glances, the Thunder Wolf Dragon left, leaping between the plateaus and quickly disappearing from sight. It hadn't played its other game yet today.

Time to go bounce the ball.

After its figure disappeared, the man, the cat, and the four dragons that had been hiding in the distance returned.

"Chen Yan, why didn't you go up and take it down with me just now?"

Chen Yan walked into the dam, pulled a strand of white hair from a crack in the rocks, and looked at the dam, which was not damaged, with some disappointment.

"Who would have thought it wouldn't fall for the trick..."

That's right, neither the Fomish Dragon nor the Flower Cat could see the Thunder Wolf Dragon in the distance, and the exhausted Chen Yan was even less likely to see it, but the Floating Dragon floating in the air could see it clearly.

Its big, round, dark eyes locked onto the Thunder Wolf Dragon almost the instant it appeared.

As a monster at the very bottom of the Coral Highlands, one must have some survival skills.

The floating dragon stared at the path left by the thunder wolf dragon and growled fiercely a few times, as if to say that it was lucky to be alive.
