Chapter 698 I am the real natural disaster—the Fourth Natural Disaster

"Monster Knight...no wonder he's ostracized by the hunter community~"

This was the Grand Master muttering to himself after witnessing the scene of the Teostra and Lunastra quietly staying by Cheng Tian's side, having reunited with the half-elf and Cheng Tian.

As a traditional hunter, he had to accept the rule of soul sacrifice due to the mutation of the ley lines, and naturally had some understanding of the Monster Rider, who had once had a great disagreement with the hunter community.

If I remember correctly, the unfounded charge against the Monster Riders was that they would one day side with the monsters and attack humans.

However, if we look beyond the surface and put it more bluntly, the reason why the high-ranking members of the hunter group, who constitute the vast majority, reject monster riders is simply because they don't want a share of the pie.

Hunters only need courage and training, so the entry barrier is relatively low. Knights, on the other hand, really need some talent to empathize with and communicate with monsters. For many people, the so-called entry barrier is no different from a barrier wall.

Cheng Tian appeared with a Deviljho from the very beginning. Although Crimson had been hunting around Stardust for a long time and had eaten a lot of prey, causing many hunters' requests to fail, it was still within the realm of understanding. It was a Brute Wyvern unit that could theoretically be killed and captured.

However, the ability to communicate with and subdue the Ancient Dragon units, especially the ability to subdue an entire family at once, far exceeds the Grand Master's understanding.

From another perspective, Cheng Tian has already replaced the Teostra and Lunastra as the new walking natural disaster. Once he has any special intentions, the ecological damage he causes, given human intelligence and stubbornness, will probably be even more severe than when the ancient dragons were released into the wild.

...The problem is that the one who subdued the Elder Dragon was the "famous Orange," who was clearly not someone the Hunter's Guild could easily manipulate; he was more of a partner than a subordinate.

Now, the Grand Commander can only pray that Cheng Tian isn't the kind of person who, after obtaining extraordinary power, would go around showing off and causing trouble.

However, the commander's shock was premature; Cheng Tian's work was far from over.

Compared to subduing the ancient dragon, Cheng Tian now faces an even bigger problem—

That means his egg-collecting business can no longer continue.

Because all six empty slots in the Bond Stone are already occupied.

The Crimson Deviljho, the Teostra couple (the couple occupies one slot after reaching Revered reputation), the Leshen egg, and three Elder Dragon eggs have already filled Cheng Tian's Bond Stones. This means that even if he discovers a new nest and gets a new egg, he cannot carry it very easily.

Therefore, Cheng Tian did not hesitate any longer and directly used his legion privileges.

As Cheng Tian raised his right hand, the sky above the Dragon Crystal Land, after passing the Aether Crystal, Behemoth, and the Zodiac Meteorite, was subjected to the fourth spatial tear phenomenon.

The Martian mothership battle fortress, which had originally been parked directly above the central square of the Chosen Space and had become one of the city's wonders, gradually squeezed into the dimensional space and appeared almost simultaneously above the Dragon's Crystal Land.

Some players who had already completed the main quest, as well as the permanent residents who chose to stop adventuring and instead stay in the space for a long time, along with the space's official NPCs, immediately started discussing the situation.

They thought this colossal UFO belonging to the Sun Legion was on some grand expedition.

The Great Expedition is not currently planned, but an expedition to the New World is a possibility. Meanwhile, as the battle fortress undergoes spatial relocation, several research institute branches belonging to "Cadillacs and Dinosaurs," "The King of Fighters MUGEN," and "Fate" also enter a state of operational suspension. Simultaneously, the entire buildings enter a phase-like space state, meaning they cannot interact with the outside world.

Most of the monsters that survive in the Elder's Recess possess varying degrees of fire attributes. This meant that when Cheng Tian unleashed his "Blazing Sun" spell, these monsters, who were used to living in a gray sky, experienced a rare moment of sunshine.

So when this sudden, massive, sky-covering shadow blocked out the sunlight above them, they, who were in the midst of a chaotic battle, almost simultaneously raised their heads to see the source of the shadow, only to be met with an instantaneous sight.

They had never seen such a huge flying object before, nor had they ever sensed the life force of encountering a predator from it... But the sheer size of the object itself is sometimes an unimaginable deterrent.

If monsters are like this, then humans are even more so.

In fact, besides Cheng Tian and his group who were carrying out missions across levels and maps, there were also some staff members that the guild had originally set up in the secret camp in the Elder's Recess, including hunters, mages, and feline.

The previous clash between the Flame Cat couple and Bear Grylls had already prompted them to pull out their binoculars and summon the pterosaurs, who then began to observe them very carefully.

Although Bear Grylls comes from another world, he is still within their comprehension and has been directly identified as a new type of monster. But what exactly is this sky-covering object?!

Because of the existence of flying constructs like airships, they could barely discern traces of human intervention in the design of the battle fortress. Reason told them that it was a man-made object, but their knowledge told them that something of this size could not possibly fly.

The commander opened his mouth wide, but couldn't squeeze out a sound for a long time. His brain, which was mostly muscle, was trying to analyze the current situation, but it was clearly showing signs of being overloaded like a pig's brain.

"As expected, map attacks and flying saucers have been banned... Oh well."

Cheng Tian looked at the data panel of his portable fortress and found that the technology-related ability system was blocked, but the basic non-offensive functions such as the anti-gravity guiding beam, the feng shui engine, and the laboratory were still retained, which was enough.

Putting the Lava Dragon issue aside for now, Cheng Tian needs to properly settle his newly acquired pets and dragon eggs.

"Brother Gen! Time to pick someone up!"

As Cheng shouted through telepathy, the bottom center of the battle fortress opened directly, shooting down an extremely thick beam of light that enveloped Cheng Tian and the others, the wary Gu Long, and the bewildered Grand Master.

The anti-gravity guiding beam carried Cheng Tian and his group through the long passage that Getter Robo 2 had broken through, finally arriving at the core area at the very top of the battle fortress.

"Here, a souvenir."

As he spoke, Cheng began rummaging through his inventory, taking out all the mushrooms he had previously purchased from Xingchen.

From the most common blue mushroom to the rather precious Ghost Nitrostom, and the specialty premium Mushroom, a total of more than ten kinds of mushrooms from the Monster Hunter world were brought out.

Seeing such a rich variety of mushrooms, the Root of Mars visibly revealed a terrifying smile.
