Monster Hunter: I can accept monster quests

Chen Yan impatiently interrupted, casually snapped his fingers, and the Nergigante unleashed a Dragon Roar right in their faces.

Having just finished teaching a lesson to the male Thunder Wolf Dragon that tried to lay a hand on Chen Yan, three more males appeared and attempted to kidnap Chen Yan right under its nose. It felt like it wanted to devour them whole.

Despite being hit by a roar at close range, the three of them were only slightly pale, indicating that they were quite powerful. Unfortunately, they had provoked Nergigante.

Even more unfortunately, the daggers they pulled out were shorter than the shortest thorn on the Nergigante's body.

"Fine, don't talk then, just kill him."

The Nergigante raised its massive claws and slammed them down with enough force to shatter mountains.

dead!

"Aren't you afraid of our retaliation?!"

Chen Yan stood beside Nergigante. The sun was no longer directly overhead; it had begun to slant. Chen Yan's shadow and Nergigante's shadow merged together, becoming indistinguishable.

"I'm not afraid of you for a second!!!"

Chapter 118 Outrageous Rebellion?

"I'll talk!"

The Extinction Dragon's claws grazed his ear, and the storm sent them flying.

Chen Yan took out his notebook.

“That’s more like it. I heard that you know Huang the most… Tell me, what’s so special about him?”

The leader stared at Chen Yan in shock.

They had clearly destroyed all information about Alatreon, so how could anyone still know its name?

However, under the dual gazes of Nergigante and Chen Yan, he was well aware of his current status while suspended in mid-air, and clearly had no right to ask questions.

"Within that mysterious volcanic cluster lies a dangerous zone known as the Divine Realm. Numerous ships and airships have perished while passing through it, with most passengers disappearing without a trace. The Hunter's Guild's explanation for these incidents is..."

Chen Yan patted the notebook.

"To get to the point, I want to know more details about Him."

The person who was interrupted was stunned.

"Okay... In order to investigate the truth of the Divine Realm and the legends, the Hunter's Guild once dispatched an investigation team composed of monster hunters and members of the Royal Scion to conduct research in an airship."

"But the investigation team eventually lost contact, and only the log left by one of the scriveners was discovered and restored by a geologist."

Chen Yan's pen tip hovered over the paper.

"By analyzing the chaotic contents of the remaining logs, the Hunter's Guild has finally gained some understanding of the Divine Realm and its Lord."

"The power of this God Realm Lord shocked the entire guild leadership. In order to avoid causing greater panic, the Hunter Guild ultimately decided to block information about the God Realm and Alatreon, and listed Alatreon as an extremely high-danger target."

Chen Yan knew all this, and he tapped the tip of his pen as if urging the other person to talk about something else.

"Unlike the Hunter's Guild, which chose to stop the investigation, we are very interested in this god. In order to obtain more information about Him, we have sent dozens of teams to the divine realm. Although most of them disappeared, there were always one or two survivors. Over the years, we have still gained some information."

His eyes were filled with awe and worship for the supreme being.

"He is not a god, He is the strongest ancient dragon that even the gods fear! He is the black sun! He is the symbol of destruction! He is the shining star of the dark night! He is the god of black light!"

"Chen Yan, your ability to form a bond with an ancient dragon is a unique existence that we have never seen before. Would you like to join us and become a loyal servant to this great being?"

Chen Yan smiled and put down his pen.

"I have no interest in being His slave or servant; I'd rather be His man..."

Upon hearing this, the leader was shocked on the spot, and the other two looked at Chen Yan differently.

What utterly treasonous words!

"Alright, alright, enough with the nonsense, let me ask you guys."

"What are Miss El's hobbies? How do you usually spend your free time? Is there anything you particularly enjoy doing? Do you prefer sweet or savory foods? Are you more extroverted or introverted? Do you like lively places or quiet places? Do you often stay up late? Do you have any cute little quirks?"

Seeing Chen Yan rambling on and on, and clearly not joking at all, they became even more doubtful about life.

They thought that worshipping the Black Dragon was abnormal enough, but they never expected to encounter someone even more abnormal than them in the New World.

Chen Yan accepted their gazes without hesitation.

"Go ahead and tell me. If you don't tell me in detail, there's an old saying in my hometown: 'A wise man submits to circumstances.' My sheep's sharp teeth and claws should be able to pry open your mouth..."

This group really lived up to their reputation; their understanding of Alatreon far exceeded his expectations.

Chen Yan stopped writing, looked at the nearly full notebook, and wrote "The Black Dragon Record Book" on the title page. In a great mood, he waved and let the three go, even Hua Miao, who had overspent several thousand gold coins, escaped unscathed.

The landed flower cat watched Chen Yan happily flipping through the notebook, hesitant to speak, but ultimately didn't dare to tell him about how his thousands of gold coins had turned into tens of thousands of gold coins.

Let the storm come later...

As for that "Alatreon Record Book," in Flower Cat's eyes, it was clearly a "Miss El's Conquest Guide," with details so specific that it even recorded whether she covered her belly button while sleeping and whether she drooled...

Hua Miao looked at the sheep who was completely oblivious and was still rubbing its head against Chen Yan for praise, and sighed deeply for it.

I thought you'd be the first to pick up your chopsticks after the meal was served, but it seems I was wrong...

The days on the Coral Highlands are numbered.

Because Nergigante is looking eastward more and more frequently, the earthquakes are getting bigger and bigger, as if some huge creature is crawling in the ley lines.

Judging by the timeline, the Lava Dragon will be appearing soon.

It's a miracle that Nergigante, which has been chasing Lavasioth for so long and desperately wants to devour its flesh and blood, has been able to endure until now.

Chen Yan calmed the restless Nergigante and decided to set off for Star Base the next day.

Compared to the first somewhat rushed battle against the Lavasioth, the hunters at the stronghold were going all out for the second time, even deploying warships equipped with giant dragon-slaying lances.

He also needs to make some preparations.

"Meme, your mission this time isn't to cause trouble for the hunters..."

But he had things to do before returning to the base.

First, go and say goodbye to the Bubble Fox Dragon family.

The moment Chen Yan appeared carrying large and small bags, the understanding fox dragon knew what he was there for.

"This bottle is for treating external injuries, and this jar is for treating internal injuries. Oh, and I also pickled some tuna for you—the kind that won't spoil even after a thousand years. And these jars of jam, both sour and sweet..."

The giant pufferfish held the bottles and jars, nuzzled Chen Yan's cheek with its head down, its eyes full of reluctance. Its two little cubs clung tightly to him, making sad, whimpering noises.

Chen Yan kicked away the flower cat that was secretly collecting Dragon Tears and ruining the atmosphere, and repeatedly assured the cubs that he would come to see them when he was done with his work.

"Oh dear, you don't need to give me so many fish. I've already prepared provisions for the journey..."

After leaving the Flying Fox family, Chen Yan returned to the coral tree, whistled, and the adorable, fluffy, white floating dragon, its fur growing back, deflated and fell back down.

It buried its head in Chen Yan's arms, licking his palm, unwilling to let Chen Yan leave.

"Don't worry, Nergigante has already spoken to Zinogre, so it won't bully you anymore."

Chen Yan rubbed its neck, which felt wonderful to the touch, and then pinched its tail, which was covered by a dark red gelatinous carapace.

His massive tail seemed no less impressive than the original's.

"You must live well. Be careful of the fire dragons and wind dragons in the sky, as well as the grotesque dragons and dizzying birds on the ground. Also, be especially careful of a horned gorilla. If you see it, don't hesitate, immediately float as high as you can..."

Chen Yan seemed to suddenly remember something, and pointed to himself again.

"If you ever encounter someone like me again, you'd better stay away. Not everyone is like me. They might skin you alive to make a hot air balloon, or drain your blood to make a nourishing extract..."

After bidding farewell to the floating dragon, Chen Yan arrived at the Zinogre, which was standing at attention in front of the Nergigante.

Despite its fresh injuries, the Zinogre was filled with resentment and discontent, but under the watchful gaze of the Nergigante, it could only stand obediently and respectfully.

Chen Yan only had one thing to say about it.

"If you want to become stronger, try to get rid of the Thunderbugs and eat more Dragon Slayer Fruits. Maybe something good will happen?"

The Thunder Wolf Dragon tilted its head slightly, as if it understood a little, yet also as if it didn't understand anything at all.

Chen Yan flipped himself onto the dragon.

"Spread your wings! Set sail!"

Chapter 119 The Storm Is Coming

Starry Sky Base, Chen Yan's dormitory.

A small iron pot was propped up inside the room.

The pot was bubbling with beef, mutton, and pork belly slices, while the corners were stuffed with all sorts of green vegetables.

Naomi, Harley, Chen Yan, and Hua Miao, still the familiar trio with their cat, gathered around a steaming hot pot, raising their glasses in a toast.

"Welcome home safely, great hero Chen Yan!"

Chen Yan gulped down a large can of liquor. As the icy liquid went down his throat, he let out a loud burp, feeling as if the last bit of fatigue that had been building up inside him had melted away.

He glanced at the crooked banner hanging in the room, with a few crooked words written on it.

Upon closer inspection, it appears to have been made from his shirt.

"Isn't the treatment of a great hero a bit poor?"

Chen Yan muttered to himself as he ate meat, and just as he filled the bowl, Naomi smoothly took it away from him and unceremoniously picked out half of it.

"Dislike it? There are better options. The staff on the Starship have already prepared a warm welcome for you. It's not too late for you to go now."

Harley scooped the remaining half of the meat from Chen Yan's bowl and gestured upwards with her lips.

"Yes, go ahead, especially with your blonde wavy hair. She keeps nagging us about it, it's driving us crazy."

Hua Miao unceremoniously accepted the last piece of meat from Chen Yan's bowl, leaving him with no broth. The full bowl of meat was returned to him empty after a short while.

"Boss, don't forget to bring me some onsen tamago (soft-boiled eggs) and onsen manju (steamed buns) when you come back... Oops, Harley, you stepped on my tail!"

It seems that only Hua Miao is truly sincere.

So Chen Yan tightened his clothes, put down his bowl and chopsticks, stood up, turned around, and walked step by step toward the door.

Naomi and Harley's chopsticks stopped moving immediately. They both glanced at Chen Yan out of the corner of their eyes, while Hua Miao ate with relish, exclaiming how delicious it was.
