Monster Girl Development Master.

Seeing that the little one was really angry, Zhuang Sen suppressed his smile, lifted the little girl in his arms high, and kissed her rosy cheek: "Okay~ I won't laugh at you anymore, but you can't go out and run around at this time."

Piper hadn't used Johnson's essence to enhance her strength. Although the [Dog Girl Queen] was a level four bloodline, she only had 4% of its potential developed, and she was a little girl with no combat experience. Johnson wasn't comfortable letting her run around. However, she wasn't the kind of particularly willful brat, and with Lisander keeping an eye on her, he wasn't worried about her actually running off.

However, Piper, who is usually very understanding, started to act coquettishly this time, hugging Zhuang Sen's head and gently rubbing against him with her still-developing buds: "Zhuang Sen, come with me~ If we don't go, the Fountain of Youth will be gone again~"

"Isn't the Fountain of Youth a spring? How can it be leaving?"

"The book says the Fountain of Youth is the divine realm of the goddess of youth—and it can travel all over the place!"

Johnson glanced at Lisandra, who shrugged innocently. What did fairy tales and poems have to do with her? Besides, she wasn't the only one who suggested teasing children like this.

Lydia chuckled and took the work from in front of Johnson: "Alright, darling, why don't you take Lysander and Piper out for a walk? I can handle this."

"Yay! I love Lydia the most!"

Seeing Piper's jubilation, Johnson shook his head helplessly, picked up the little guy and stood up, then looked at Bessie, who was standing silently in a daze, and asked, "Bessie, Celine, are you going?"

The tall, 1.75-meter-tall Behemoth dwarf stood up and walked to Zhuang Sen's side. She was quieter than the snowflakes in the sky, but her body against Zhuang Sen was very hot, just like her straightforward feelings and desires.

"Well then, I'll leave things here to you, Lydia. I'll make it up to you when I get back~"

"Then I'll be ready!"

Lydia got to work quickly, while Zhuang Sen led his wives out of the tent. The dog riders barked loudly and ran towards a path full of their footprints, leading Zhuang Sen and his wife into the forest, to a beautiful place where flowers bloomed, grass was lush, springs flowed, and birds chirped among the branches.

On a winter day when snow has already begun to fall.

Chapter 241: Paw Patrol, Making Great Contributions

The snow, which had paused for a while, began to fall again, draping the dark forest in a white coat. The silvery landscape was somewhat desolate and vast, but in the distance, the army camp was brightly lit, the well-prepared logistics bringing laughter and lively sounds that echoed through the night, slightly easing the chill of the snowy night. A young nobleman strolled with his wife through the frost and snow, the loyal hunting dogs barking, eliciting excitement from the innocent girl—like the beginning of a fairy tale, a beautiful childhood dream…

That's how it should have been, until, in this snowy night, in the silver-clad Black Forest, the nobleman and his wife, accompanied by their hunting dogs, witnessed a springtime scene of lush grass, blooming flowers, and flowing springs. No wonder they said even a group of ordinary hunting dogs could find it; it would be strange if they hadn't noticed such an obvious contrast.

But there really is one?

Zhuang Sen pinched Piper's cheek in his arms. The little guy, who had been excited, suddenly winced in pain and pouted. But he couldn't keep up the act any longer and couldn't help but raise his head with a grin, looking smug: "See? I told you I could find it! Now Zhuang Sen, you can't refuse me anymore!"

As she spoke, she wiggled her hips, trying to break free from Zhuang Sen's embrace and soak in the still-flowing spring water in this winter, entering the prime of her youth. Helpless, Zhuang Sen increased his strength, continuing to suppress her: "Don't be in such a hurry, you idiot, aren't you afraid it's a trap?"

Unlike the naive Piper, Johnson was quite restrained. After his brief moment of astonishment, he noticed something amiss, for example…

Johnson, holding Piper, gestured for Bessie and Lysander to take a step back with him. The beautiful scenery vanished, replaced by an ordinary, normal Black Forest. When they took another step forward, the strange beauty returned. Even Piper noticed something was amiss, but the little guy, eager to grow up quickly and defiantly pushing Johnson, still stubbornly insisted, "The Fountain of Youth is magical; only kind-hearted people can find it!"

Kind-hearted, me?

Johnson, Celine, Bessie, and even Lysander became even more suspicious. However, they were indeed very curious about the situation. Whether it was the so-called Fountain of Youth or not, it was worth investigating—provided, of course, that it was safe to do so.

Zhuang Sen took out the [Rockhound Statue], a basic development reward for the [Rockhound] bloodline. Using it would summon a large rock dog, perfect for scouting. Although Piper was anxious, seeing how serious Zhuang Sen was, she stopped being coquettish and obediently hung on his neck, staring at his face with wide eyes in the moonlight, her little face gradually turning red.

Soon, the rockhound nimbly and cautiously stepped into the beautiful scenery. The soft grass could not bear the weight of the rocks and sank down. The flowers were scraped down by the hard rocks and fell into the mud. Everything seemed normal, but Zhuang Sen did not let his guard down. Instead, he kept to the furthest distance he could observe the scenery and watched the rockhound carefully step into the small spring.

The next second, the summoner's sense of the summoned creature suddenly vanished, even though it was still clearly visible in the field of vision; it was soaking in the spring, its gray-black rockhound ears exposed. Zhuang Sen's expression turned solemn as he raised his hand and summoned the Holy Lance. Seeing his action, Beshi and Lysander also assumed fighting stances, alerting their surroundings.

A few seconds later, the rockhound surfaced from the spring, its connection with Zhuang Sen restored, and it returned to Zhuang Sen's side as he had previously commanded. Zhuang Sen looked down at the rockhound, which was now crouching down. Its originally grayish-black body had become much "brighter," as if the rock that made up its body had become younger. Apart from that, he found nothing wrong. Its mouth was wide open, filled with spring water, which it had brought back as ordered. However, it looked no different from ordinary spring water, and its taste was also very ordinary, except that it was a bit clearer.

Zhuang Sen hesitated for a moment, then handed Piper to Lysander, reaching out to touch the spring water in the rock dog's mouth. It felt cool to the touch, like summer mountain spring water, nothing particularly special. However, the system suddenly reacted.

[Residual of a superior species detected... Confirming... Confirmed as remnant of a water elemental fairy]

[Undine's Water: A liquid containing the magical energy of the water element; soaking in or drinking it can strengthen the body.]

Water elemental fairy?

Zhuang Sen was slightly surprised, not expecting this to be related to monster girls, but since there were no problems, he could go and take a look. Zhuang Sen sheathed his Holy Lance, and Bessie and Lisander also ceased their fighting stances. Lisander was especially relieved; she wasn't afraid of fighting, but she and Piper were the weakest here, and she was worried about holding Zhuang Sen back.

"It's alright, it seems the Paw Patrol has done a great job this time." Johnson ruffled Lysander's hair and walked towards the spring. Bessie and Lysander naturally followed, they wouldn't let Johnson take the risk alone.

It was only a few steps away, and there was no danger. Zhuang Sen squatted down by the spring and reached out to touch the water. Immediately afterward, a new pop-up window appeared in front of Zhuang Sen.

Undine's Fountain

[A broken nest left behind by a superior water elemental fairy; its bloodline power no longer exists, and it cannot be rebuilt.]

【Effect 1: Hydrated Skin: Soaking the body in spring water can moisturize the skin, giving it a smooth, water-like feel and slightly increasing water resistance】

【Effect 2 - Fountain of Youth: Drinking an appropriate amount of the fountain water will, depending on your bloodline, alter your appearance to a certain extent, moving towards puberty. This effect cannot be used by those with the Fiery attribute bloodline.】

【Effect 3 - Mermaid Lament: This nest retains the resentment and anger of the superior Mermaid Queen, who will constantly change location. Overuse or damage to this nest will result in an attack.】

Did the fish betray the water, or did the water abandon the fish?

The new system pop-up window has a small amount of text, but contains a lot of information.

First of all, this thing really can keep people young forever, just like in the legends, although it's only in appearance and not lifespan, and it's also related to bloodline, but it's already incredibly powerful. Then, this thing is just the remnant of a broken nest of a so-called superior species, yet it possesses this level of power. If it hadn't been broken, could it really achieve immortality?

Moreover, his [Holy Lance Angel], Dantalian's [Holy Lamia], and Celine's [Red Dragon] are all superior beings, so wouldn't they also be able to build such nests... or, is it actually related to their abilities?

Finally, this Fountain of Youth, or rather, the Fountain of Undine, still harbors the resentment and anger of the Mermaid Queen. Coupled with the Riddler's note at the end of the system, it's hard not to wonder why this nest was destroyed in the first place, and what kind of entanglements were involved.

But in any case, this thing is indeed a good thing. It's just a mystery why it suddenly moved here and was discovered by a group of ordinary hunting dogs. Or perhaps it deliberately appeared here to attract the monster girls to find it?

Zhuang Sen considered it for a moment and felt the possibility was relatively low. If the [Undine's Spring] truly possessed such a level of cognitive ability, it wouldn't need to hide in this forest; it could easily have gone straight to Golden Swan Castle. That little idiot Piper would probably have already been bragging about it. As for now, of course, some of this good stuff should be taken. Although the monster girls would hardly need it, giving it to Mira to research might lead to some novel and useful products. Even if it couldn't be used as skincare products, it would still be fine.

However, considering the Mermaid Queen's resentment, Zhuang Sen did not plan to guzzle the water down his throat. Besides, he hadn't brought any containers to hold the water. He decided to let the impatient Piper satisfy himself first, and then go back to get a container to hold some more.

Zhuang Sen thought for a moment, then waved to Piper and smiled, "Alright, my lucky little dog, come on."

Piper, who had been patiently waiting to distract Zhuang Sen and her sisters, suddenly broke into a happy expression and pounced on Zhuang Sen, shouting, "Yay!"

Chapter 242: Pendants, Plug-ins (4771 words)

Amidst the spring scenery on a snowy night, Zhuang Sen caught Piper as she leaped towards him, spun her around a few times in his arms, and the little one laughed happily and proudly, even giving Lysander a deliberately provocative look. Zhuang Sen saw Lysander clench her little hands, seemingly preparing to show Piper what it meant for her to always be her sister, so he put Piper down, patted her head, and said, "Go on, but don't drink too much. There are mermaid ghosts here, you know. If you drink too much, you'll be dragged down and never see your sister and me again."

Although Piper was innocent and loved to whine, she wasn't a spoiled brat who couldn't distinguish right from wrong. Hearing Zhuang Sen's earnest instructions, she nodded vigorously, then half-squatted down, scooped up the clear spring water with her little hands, and sipped it. Zhuang Sen observed her carefully, ready to intervene and control the little one at any moment, also wanting to observe the reaction of the [Undine's Spring] to its effects.

However, a window popped up:

[Detected that the Dog Girl King has drunk from Undine's Fountain. Activate Effect 2: Fountain of Youth?]

Alright, alright, you took over someone else's lair just by touching it, huh? The system's hands aren't very clean, are they?

However, Zhuang Sen liked it.

Johnson confirmed the activation, but Piper didn't instantly grow up. Instead, another window popped up: [Trigger progress 15%...30%...]

As Piper sipped, the progress bar slowly rose, eventually reaching 100%. At the same time, a soft, moist glow emanated from Piper's body, pure and ethereal, like the first dewdrop on a new leaf, or the first silver rays of a new moon, gently seeping into Piper's being. In the light, Piper, who was originally only slightly taller than Nia, about 1.35 meters, grew rapidly, quickly reaching 1.5 meters. Her unopened buds swelled, transforming into adorable, juicy breasts, and her short legs lengthened, adding a touch of girlish charm to her youthful appearance.

Her slender waist remained unchanged, and it looked even more delicate against her pert, round buttocks. Her golden dog tail, which had been swaying, had grown larger and longer, and it was fluffy and swaying back and forth behind her buttocks. Her dog ears on her head were also twitching, making people want to grab them and rub them. Zhuang Sen did just that.

"Congratulations, my little puppy king, you've grown into a big puppy!"

The warmth emanating from her ear and Zhuang Sen's gentle teasing transformed Piper's joy into shyness and nervousness. All the knowledge she had gained from the [Dog Girl King] inheritance flooded her mind, causing her increasingly adorable face to flush completely red. Although she kept saying she wanted to seduce Zhuang Sen and drain him dry like a monster girl, when it came to actually doing it, she was as nervous as a virgin who had been watching the royal uncle every day—she might even misalign her opening.

Ah, little virgin.

Zhuang Sen pinched Piper's earlobe: "Alright, I'm not teasing you anymore. Let's go back... No, you can't go back like this."

Because Piper's monster girl form and human form don't change much in size, her clothes aren't special versions that automatically adapt to changes in body size. And since no one believed in the Fountain of Youth not long ago, naturally no one prepared adult clothes for her. Therefore, Piper is currently wearing her children's clothes... if they can even be called complete clothes.

The cute pink top was squeezed into a bralette, with several rips on both sides, revealing her perky breasts. The skirt that originally covered her feet had become a mini-skirt that barely covered her upper thighs. When the night wind blew, her mysterious triangle area could be seen, along with the triangular fabric that had become like thin ropes, lightly digging into her small breasts.

Zhuang Sen definitely couldn't let the little one go back to camp dressed like that, but he also couldn't leave her here. So he could only let Besh go back and get her clothes and water container. Besh's strength and intelligence were trustworthy. As a monster girl who had awakened four times, and with some of the memories and experience of Queen Behemoth, she might be the most capable fighter under Zhuang Sen at the moment. As for her personality, she was just a little too indifferent, not really stupid.

Just as Johnson made up his mind, Lysander suddenly grabbed Bessie and said in a fawning tone that was obviously a lie, "Oh dear, Piper can't go back like this, so you'll have to carry her back, darling~"

?

Zhuang Sen typed a question mark.

At this moment, with her sister's help, little Piper finally mustered up her courage, wrapped her arms around Zhuang Sen's waist, and stammered, "Zhuang...darling, honey~"

Zhuang Sen glanced at Lisandra, and the centaur girl turned her head away shyly, humming a little tune. Zhuang Sen recognized the melody; it was a folk song about love from the territory of Leon, about a brave noblewoman pursuing an older knight.

"Zhuang Sen~" Having done it once before, Piper didn't stutter this time. She wrapped her arms around Zhuang Sen's waist and rubbed against him, "Carry me back~"

"Alright, alright." Zhuang Sen cupped the little one's bottom with both hands, picked her up, kissed her little face, and teased her deliberately, "But even if I carry her back, it doesn't seem like I can stop everything."

Although Johnson could easily have used his enormous wings to envelop Piper, and he was just about to do so, Piper's boldness still surprised him. The clever little thing simply unbuckled Johnson's belt, opened his coat, and squeezed her entire body inside. It was only because she was still quite petite, except for her height, and belonged to the petite and delicate type, that she could have done such a thing.

Even so, Zhuang Sen's upper body was completely occupied by her, her pert peach-shaped buttocks and mysterious area below directly facing his dragon's nest, his holy spear domain. What was most alluring was that the clever little devil was clearly doing it on purpose, because she was awkwardly swaying her hips, rubbing against Zhuang Sen's crotch.

Without the obstruction of a coat and trousers, the already enormous and long dragon could hardly resist the temptation from his wife. It immediately gleamed with a cold light and pressed against the small steamed bun.

“Like this~ then wrap the clothes up again~” Piper lowered her head, hiding it under Zhuang Sen’s chin, mimicking the seductive way she spoke from her memory. Every few words, she would lick Zhuang Sen’s firm chest and collarbone with her pink little tongue. “Then no one else will see~ Only~ darling~ can~”

This alluring, or rather, ingratiating skill, combined with Piper's innocent and adorable face and petite, charming body, created a striking contrast. Especially when he heard the little puppy softly calling his name, calling him "darling," his surging dragon struck his little bun directly. The moment the hot, hard object pressed against her, Piper's already soft and delicate body instantly became even more powerless, completely leaning against Zhuang Sen, as if she had become an accessory to him, with her little bun overflowing with honey-like fluid.

"Darling~" The little puppy struggled to lift its head and kissed Zhuang Sen's chin, its pink tongue leaving a sticky trail of saliva on Zhuang Sen's face. "Carry me home~"

...a river crab passing by...

Before he could erupt, Zhuang Sen, deep within the greenhouse, gently ground against Piper, interrupting his smugness. Zhuang Sen leaned close to the little dog's ear, who was both frightened and delighted, and spread his wings: "There's no time to walk slowly anymore, are you ready?"

Johnson released his hands and pulled Bessie, Celine, and Lissandra, who had already come closer. Piper, who had lost his support, fell again and could only cling tightly to Johnson, swallowing him even deeper to maintain his balance.

Zhuang Sen chuckled twice, then dragged his wives into the air. In the snowy night, their white wings fluttered. The soldiers saw them but didn't care. They all knew that this was their lord, and besides, they didn't have any means to threaten the air force. Ordinary bows and crossbows couldn't be used to attack the air in this snowy night.

So they only glanced at it twice, confirming it was the Earl's white wings, before focusing on something else, completely unaware that Zhuang Sen's body had become much more bloated, or that rain seemed to be falling from the sky. Even little Piper himself was immersed in extreme pleasure, completely losing sight of his surroundings.

Under the influence of high speed and flight posture, Little Piper finally collapsed completely during a spasm, and was opened up by Big Zhuangsen. The extremely tight cervix was violently forced open, and Zhuangsen felt the ultimate stimulation and pleasure, and ejaculated inside.

After a while, Johnson and Piper, who had regained their senses, landed in his tent. Although Lysander, Besh, and Celine wanted to punish Johnson on the spot, one of them ran to find clothes for Piper, and another searched for bottles and jars in the tent. Only Lydia's teasing laughter made the limp Piper blush with embarrassment.

The courage she had mustered was dispelled by the warmth of the tent, and her lower body, still savoring the pleasure, was flowing with honey-like fluid. The little puppy's face was rosy, and she had gained a touch of mature charm.

After changing his clothes, Johnson bent down and kissed Piper's forehead. He then took Bessie and Lysander back into the sky to fetch water from the Fountain of Youth. This time, the journey was smooth and quick, as all three were eager to return to their tents and finish before tomorrow's march.

Some time after Zhuang Sen and his group finished fetching water, late at night.

A frail old man, who looked as if a gust of wind would knock him over, came to the Fountain of Youth with a cane: "Finally... I found it... cough cough."

Brad the Mud Monster coughed lightly, reaching out to touch the water's surface as he chanted in an obscure language: "Come, ancient water elementals, our allies, cleanse me of my filth—"

His hands, covered in age spots, touched the water's surface. The cool sensation cleansed his soul, but only for a moment. The next second, a melodious yet piercing voice, filled with resentment and anger, roared out: "Inferior! Species!!!"

The sound was deafening, and strangely, the wild beasts nearby seemed completely oblivious, as if the noise was confined to this wintery spring scene. But Brad had no time for such details, for with the roar, a colossal wave, tens of meters high, suddenly surged from the once calm and clear spring, crashing down upon him!

Damn it! He hasn't even drawn water yet, how could he have angered the goddess of the spring?!
