Chapter 696 Main Quest Guaranteed, Investigation Continues (Understood)

[You have triggered the Silver Side Quest – "The Monster Doctor, Specializing in Curing Infertility".]

[Single-player quest. Teostra and Lunastra, who chose to cross from the Old World to the New World via the "Ancient Dragon Crossing" in order to reproduce, have a strong obsession with breeding offspring. However, due to the mutation of the ley lines and the excessive power of the Sun God Gem fragments, they have been unable to successfully produce offspring.]

By promising to cure the infertility of Teostra "Theo" and Lunastra "Nana", you formed a bond with the two dying creatures, making them your companion beasts. You must help them produce at least one hatchable offspring (dragon egg) before leaving the current instance. Otherwise, Teostra and Lunastra will forcibly break free of the bond and enter a long-term hostile state with you because they have been deceived.

After fulfilling the promise, you will receive a friendship bond from the Teostra and Lunastra couple. Even without a "Bond Stone," you can summon them as a follower unit and take them out of the current dungeon.

This was the spatial notification Cheng Tian received after the two streams of light were simultaneously injected into the Bond Stone.

For other players, this will undoubtedly be a very difficult task, as they will have to solve both the problem of the Sun God Gem fragments and the problem of the ley lines mutation at the same time.

The fragments of the Sun God Gem seem easy to deal with, but in reality, unless one possesses the same attribute of adaptability, like Kyo Kusanagi and the Teostra couple, and can withstand the gem's erosion on their own, then they may face a danger similar to that faced by Prince Eren, namely the risk of being eroded and replaced at any time.

Oh, you'll also need to prepare high-grade equipment with sockets, at the very least a prince's crown.

As for Cheng, he simply unloaded the "Sun God Gem Fragment" from each of the two big cats' equipment slots after taming them, then slapped it on his forehead, and the matter was perfectly resolved.

In fact, he did just that.

Faced with this situation, the two big cats roared twice inside the bond stone to express their dissatisfaction, but they were too weak to resist Cheng Tian's strength at this moment.

Now that they've temporarily become Cheng Tian's companion beasts, there are some things they can't control. Unloading the gem fragments through the equipment slot was already a very gentle method; otherwise, these two would probably have gotten another beating.

As Cheng Tian casually slapped his forehead, the total number of his Sun God Gem fragments had already surpassed the 50% mark, reaching 60%.

It can be said that even if the next holder you encounter has all 40% of the remaining fragments, it still won't be as good as someone else.

Meanwhile, as the total number of fragments surpassed 50%, Cheng Tian's Sun Mask began to continuously emit a gentle, yet not intense, glow.

This means that the Sun Mask is unlocking its seventh special effect.

Returning to the mission, besides the tedious gem unloading, the most critical issue is the mutation of the ley lines.

It's important to understand that the geological mutations in the New World are part of the overall setting. In other words, to solve this problem, we need to find the source of the law of soul sacrifice.

Let alone players like them who still have only a vague understanding of soul sacrifice, even Cheng Tian wouldn't dare guarantee that he could solve it.

Therefore, Cheng Tian will only choose to take shortcuts.

Cheng Tian knew the exact location of the Flame Cat couple's nest in the Elder's Recess, so all he needed to do was find the nest and the egg-laying area to directly extract their offspring.

Moreover, in theory, Cheng Tian could extract a maximum of three dragon eggs.

For ancient dragons, whose incredible vitality makes it difficult for them to reproduce multiple offspring, laying three eggs at once is extremely rare. Cheng Tian refused to believe that three eggs wouldn't satisfy the Flame Cat couple.

Of course, the benefits of subduing the Flame Cat couple are not yet over.

Cheng Tian's main quest is complete.

[By capturing Teostra and Lunastra and removing the Sun God Gem fragment that caused their power imbalance and subsequently damaged the surrounding ecosystem, you successfully maintained ecological balance.]

Your main quest, "Blazing Sun," is complete.

You can now complete main quests independently (including for your own team) in any non-combat state, and handle loot and return items to your starting area.

You can also temporarily suspend the main storyline calculations and instead continue investigating other Elder Dragons and factors that affect the ecosystem to improve the final settlement rewards and evaluation.

Even if you abandon the investigation due to special factors during the subsequent investigation process, it will not affect your completion of the final settlement corresponding to "Blazing Sun". You can still perform settlement, processing and return at any time in a non-combat state.

You can stay in the current instance until the maximum limit of the regular main story instance, which is the end of this month. There are currently 8 days, 14 hours, and 48 minutes remaining.

[Since the severely wounded monster "Behemoth" has become a significant factor affecting the current world's ecology, the emergency side quest "Behemoth's Survival Guide" will also be considered part of the main questline.]

With this series of prompts, Cheng Tian has a guaranteed minimum. Regardless of whether the subsequent investigation goes smoothly or not, or whether he encounters a powerful enemy and has to run away, it will not affect his and his team's main storyline settlement.

Actually, Cheng Tian was a little hesitant about whether to kill the Flame Cat couple directly and sacrifice their corpses for permanent attribute bonuses. However, when Eileen, who had been monitoring from the air, informed him that a dragon beast had broken the delicate balance and rushed into the area, Cheng Tian knew that he had made the right choice.

If it were a matter of killing or sacrificing, let alone whether these two dying ancient dragons still had the strength to fight to the death, they wouldn't even be able to attempt a sacrifice under the onslaught of more dragon beasts.

Sacrifice requires a casting time, and you can't do anything else during that time, making it really easy to get killed.

So, before he could enter combat mode due to encountering other dragon beasts, Cheng Tian decisively summoned the Primal Wyvern again, carrying two and one, and successfully took to the sky just as a "Burst Dragon" that was rapidly approaching like a rolling wheel was crushing and ramming him.

And this Blastdragon was the first to break the delicate balance.

With its appearance, the round and chubby Rock Thieflon, the aerial policeman Bazelgeuse on par with the Deviljho, the Lava Dragon with flesh even more disgusting than the Elder Dragons, the Brachydios with its pair of exploding steel fists capable of crushing anything, and even the Rathalos couple, who had never appeared in the Ancient Forest, all rushed in one after another—

Then, unable to find the ancient dragon's corpse, they started fighting each other.

As for Cheng Tian, ​​he had already led his men towards the lair of the Flame Cat couple.
