Monster Hunter: I can accept monster quests

The cat jumped up. It had clearly hidden a bag of gold coins, so how did it become only half a bag?

"I used that half bag of gold coins to buy flowers, cloth, repair table legs, and tea."

Chen Yan provided an answer.

Sure enough, only half a bag of gold coins remained!

Flower Cat was furious. This was the money it had worked hard to earn by selling "export-grade moisturizing lotion" at its stall!

It brandished its twin blades, ready to kill Chen Yan, but he calmly caught them with his blade-catching technique, wiped away non-existent dust from the Flying Dragon Blade [Red Leaf], and offered a gentle apology.

A flash of light appeared on the scabbard and disappeared between his fingers.

Don't carry it behind you. Straighten your back, then put the cat on your shoulder and carry it out into the sunset.

Harley, who was holding onto the pterosaur, had been waiting for a long time.

She reached out and pulled Chen Yan up. The two of them and the cat took off and flew eastward.

The once lively room was now empty except for Naomi. She sighed habitually, slowly finished her tea, glanced at the broken scale Harley had placed on the table, walked over to pull out the arrow pinned to the wall, and stroked the pierced workbook.

Carefully turn the page and pull out a piece of paper between the third and fourth pages.

As expected, the pink paper was also punched through; everything else was there, except for her name, which had just disappeared.

She sighed again, pulled it out, and threw it into the wastewater...

"In the end, it was still just a little short..."

Looking at the shattered scale that made Chen Yan "abandon martial arts for literature", Naomi, who had collected and sent countless monster materials, immediately recognized that it was a scale of a horned dragon, and that it was from a horned dragon that was not yet fully grown.

The original yellowish-brown scales were covered in charred remains, as if they had been thoroughly roasted from the inside out by intense flames.

"It's just a scale from a horned dragon, is it really necessary to be so nervous..."

She then took out the last half-bag of gold coins that Hua Miao had hidden again.

"Chen Yan told me to use these gold coins to buy cat food and deliver it to the open-air warehouse. His new cat needs to eat a can of food every day to help it recover..."

...

The pterosaur dragged the two of them as they sped away, the forest scenery rushing past them, revealing patches of yellowish-brown desert, and they could smell the familiar scent of sand and dust.

Harley looked up at the sky, then at the ground, then at Chen Yan, and kept looking.

The cat is angry. Why don't you look at it?

"Was the baby horned dinosaur seriously injured?"

Harley is serious.

"The little horned dragon was seriously injured. If I hadn't intervened, it would have certainly died."

The image of that lively and adorable little guy flashed through Chen Yan's mind, and his heart tightened.

"Is everything settled? What monster injured it? Is Mrs. Blackhorn Dragon, who was with it, alright? Haven't the Blademaster and Glavenus brothers appeared? Is the camp still there...?"

Harley was completely baffled.

"Alright, alright, see for yourself."

She tugged at the pterosaur, and it spiraled down.

The camp where I had stayed for half a month has appeared.

The area around the camp was somewhat different from when I left; the large pit that Mrs. Blackhorn had drilled was now filled with gravel.

Everything else is still there: the stream, the pond, the weeds, the deer, and even the concave stone that the cat used as a litter box by the door is still there.

Chen Yan landed but did not head towards the camp. Sensing something, he slowly walked towards the unremarkable sandy area.

Footsteps echoed, the ground trembled slightly, and then a few dark figures emerged from the sand, their small red eyes staring at Chen Yan warily.

It really was it.

"A small horned dragon..."

Chen Yan called out softly.

The little horned dinosaur's eyes went from disbelief to shock, from shock to confusion, from confusion to ecstasy, and from ecstasy to grievance...

The final image captured joy.

It stretched its wings and kicked its legs to emerge from the sandpit, shook off the sand, and rushed towards Chen Yan like a dragon chariot. But it suddenly braked midway, hesitatingly looking at Chen Yan, who was much smaller, and then at its own much larger body.

It's not the same as when it was a puppy; it's grown from a tiny creature about a meter long into a giant that's over ten meters long.

But the joy of reunion is always a two-way street.

Chen Yan rushed over and hugged its neck. The little guy stiffened for a moment, then relaxed and collapsed to the ground.

First, it barked at Harley, who kept her promise, then started rubbing its head against Chen Yan, kicking the sand with its hind legs and wagging its tail... The way it expressed happiness was exactly the same as when it was a child.

But Chen Yan was not happy at all. Only when he got closer did he realize how serious its injuries were.

Its entire body was covered in pitted, yellowish-brown carapace; its head disc was mostly charred black; its beautiful, curved horns were broken off; its wings were covered in hollow, scab-like holes; its hind legs were lame; and its double-edged axe-shaped tail was missing its blade, leaving only a bare handle...

"How did you get injured like this...? What kind of monster injured you?"

The horned dragon trembled, a look of fear flashing in its eyes. It whimpered a few times, tucked Chen Yan behind its wing, hid its head inside, closed its eyes tightly, and trembled.

"Tell me, what monster hurt you?"

It remained silent, only trembling.

Even if it doesn't say, Chen Yan has ways of finding out.

Chen Yan stroked the wound on its wing, lifted its eyelids, pried open its mouth, and spread out the center of its wing claws...

"Red face and eyes, dry throat and hoarse voice, boils and carbuncles, redness, swelling and pain, oral ulcers, swollen gums... Were you injured by a fire-elemental monster?"

Chen Yan counted on his fingers the number of fire-breathing monsters.

"Female Rathalos? Pink Rathian? It shouldn't be them. Although Rathalos can fly, even if you can't beat them, they can't stop you from running away."

"Bazelgeuse? Glavenus? It shouldn't be either of them. Bazelgeuse's scale explosion damage wouldn't be like this, and Glavenus wouldn't be able to inflict such a breach."

"Could it have been done by the Teostra and Lunastra?"

The little horned dinosaur trembled violently.

It really was the Flame King Dragon and Flame Consort Dragon who did it!

Why didn't this ancient dragon couple stay in the Elder's Recess? Why did they have to run to the Wildspire Wasteland just to bully a young horned dragon that hadn't even reached adulthood yet?

Chen Yan took a deep breath and gently stroked the baby horned dragon. In his eyes, it looked exactly the same as when it first hatched from its egg...

"Don't be afraid, you're the kid that Harley and I raised. If the little one gets bullied, it's the old ones' turn to avenge them. Don't be fooled by their dragon-like appearance; if they dare to hurt you, I'll kill even the forbidden ones, let alone the ancient dragons!"

"Me too!"

Flower Cat was equally indignant, wishing it could kill the Teostra and Lunastra immediately. The little horned dragon was its number one mount, and no one else could bully it!

Chapter 132 (Just a random click)

But more important than seeking revenge is to first treat the severely injured baby horned dinosaur.

Harley had prepared plenty of medicine, and the two of them and the cat were very skilled at treating the monster. The little horned dragon was also very cooperative, but after all, it was so big and covered in wounds.

First, wash the inside and outside of the room with stream water, then remove the blood scabs, clean away any remaining fire poison, and carefully apply the medicine... It was already past midnight when I finished.

Unlike Chen Yan and the others, who were so sleepy they could barely keep their eyes open, the little horned dragon, which was usually nocturnal, was quite energetic.

It resisted the urge to lick its wounds, and tentatively stretched its wings and legs. Sure enough, the pain had subsided considerably.

It licked its lips; now that the wound didn't hurt, it could feel its empty stomach again.

It bowed its head and nudged Chen Yan, gesturing for them to come up to it, and offered to take them out for a late-night snack.

Chen Yan, Harley, and Hua Miao, who had carefully treated it all night with torches, now had bloodshot eyes and only wanted to sleep.

Anyway, of all the monsters in the Wildspire Wasteland, only the Diablos likes to roam around at night. Besides, there are fresh cactus bushes nearby, and it's close to the hunter's camp, so Teostra and Lunastra shouldn't be able to find this place.

Chen Yan yawned and pointed to the cacti on the slope in front of him.

"Don't go too far, just grab something to eat downstairs. I'll make you a super nutritious meal tomorrow..."

Watching the baby horned dinosaur slide down the slope to eat the cactus, Chen Yan, carrying the snoring cat, followed Harley back to the camp.

But as soon as they got to the door, they were turned away.

Chen Yan knocked on the door.

"Hey, Harley, have you forgotten I'm behind you?!"

There was no response from inside, only the faint sound of tearing leather and fabric could be heard.

A few minutes later, Harley, with beads of sweat on her forehead, let Chen Yan in. He craned his neck to look and saw the floor covered with tattered tent skin. A perfectly good large tent had been torn and crumpled into a smaller tent than before.

Harley wiped her sweat and familiarly crawled in first. After taking off her invisibility cloak, she took off her Poison Bird coat and used it as a pillow under the two people's heads. After busying herself for a while, she found that Chen Yan had not yet crawled in.

She patted the person next to her and gestured for him to come in and go to sleep.

Strangely enough, even though Harley has the ability to become invisible when it gets dark, Chen Yan could see her clearly under the same faint firelight this time. He could also see her voluptuous figure clearly and even smell that familiar fragrance.

It still smells like the scent of Bubble Dragon foam.

Flower Cat's business is doing quite well.

Lost in thought, Chen Yan swallowed hard and, to hide his panic, began to grope himself.

"How strange! Where did my bottle of the 'Thirteen-in-One Super Hydrating Moisturizing Lotion for Infants and Young Children' go?"

Harley rolled her eyes at him and reached out to pull him inside.

The two faced each other, neither speaking, and the atmosphere became somewhat tense for a moment.

Until Harley burst out laughing.

"What are you afraid of? Do you think I'm going to eat you? We're both hunters. Who knows what tomorrow will bring? Why hide things from each other and regret it later? Hey, don't you agree?"

Chen Yan remained silent. In this perilous world, there were ancient dragons that controlled natural disasters, and forbidden forces capable of destroying the world. No matter how powerful a kingdom was, it could not withstand that world-destroying fire...

Humans are in a vulnerable position, so there aren't as many rules and regulations. He doesn't dislike bold girls, but he's worried that Harley might not be able to handle it...

After all, during his fierce battle with Meimeizi, he was already 30% confident he could find out the bottom line...
