CHAPTER 303: CHAPTER 200 KING KONG’S FIRST LOVE (TWO IN ONE)_2

Yu Shusheng saw this and his smile turned peculiar.

"Rein Jia’er, have you been cozying up to some big shot recently? Is that why you’ve got something to rely on?"

Qin Shou curled his lips, "Principal, can we avoid using the term ’cozying up’ for grown-up affairs?"

"Oh, oh, I get it now, I get it."

"What do you think you got?"

"Nothing much. When are you coming to West City? I’ll have Gao Yao return Great Saint to you."

"In a couple of days, I’ve got some stuff to handle right now."

"Alright then, goodbye, Rein Jia’er."

...

After closing the communicator, Qin Shou went to the infirmary to check on Big Black Face and Third Uncle, then flew directly to Transmission Square.

Nowadays, the Beast Cultivation Main City had set up a Transmission Array in the Earth’s Core World.

The light of space flickered, and as soon as his eyes opened, Qin Shou was back in the Earth’s Core World.

Checking the nearby map coordinates, Qin Shou discovered that this place wasn’t far from the Mutant Nest.

Riding the greedy snake high into the air, in no time, Qin Shou approached the previously barren "Qiongqi Mountain."

"Grr... Woof!"

Three Qiongqi caught the familiar scent from afar, baring their teeth and growling fiercely on the mountain peak.

"Oh, still not taken care of, huh? Guess I’ll clean you up this time!"

With a slight chuckle, Qin Shou commanded the greedy snake to dive. The Space Gate opened wide, and the silver giant beast landed with a thunderous crash, sending dirt flying dozens of meters high.

"Roooar..."

As Hillbagon landed, it angrily pounded its chest, raising its gaze sharply toward the airborne greedy snake.

"Ssss..."

The radiance of Gravity Energy suffused the area; the greedy snake spread its wings and hovered motionless in mid-air.

Nearsighted Hillbagon could only vaguely make out glowing energy clusters but failed to spot any moving objects.

"Grr... Woof!"

Meanwhile, the three Qiongqi approached. Seeing the moving figures, Hillbagon snarled furiously and stamped the ground, charging toward the three Qiongqi.

"Boom boom boom..."

The ground trembled slightly. As Hillbagon charged forward, the three Qiongqi refused to back down and fearlessly rushed to confront Hillbagon.

"Roar..."

"Roooar!"

Leaping simultaneously, the three Qiongqi flew at Hillbagon. White light flashed in Hillbagon’s eyes, and with a ferocious downward swipe of its paw—

"Bang!!"

A muffled thud rang out as its silver claws struck one Qiongqi’s head. The unimaginable Huge Strength instantly knocked the Qiongqi unconscious, leaving its body convulsing on the ground.

"Roar..."

At the same time, the other two Qiongqi managed to latch onto Hillbagon, savagely biting and clawing at its body.

"Roooar..."

Infuriated by the creatures clinging to it, Hillbagon pounded its chest, grabbed the two Qiongqi effortlessly in its massive hands.

Struggling to no avail, the two Qiongqi yelled and snarled, locked tightly in Hillbagon’s vice-like grip.

What? Taking advantage of me and you still dare to act fierce?

Hillbagon shook its head before smashing its hands together. A deafening sound accompanied two Qiongqi’s heads exploding; foam spilled from their mouths as their limp bodies drooped in Hillbagon’s grasp.

"Roar roar!!"

Hillbagon tossed the two Qiongqi aside, gleefully stomping and cheering, its colossal tail sweeping stones hundreds of meters away.

"Buzz..."

Suddenly, Hillbagon stilled, its jubilant mood vanishing.

Oh no, time to say goodbye to this world again.

The sensation of weightlessness washed over. Open eyes, close eyes—he was greeted by the rainbow skies once more.

My monster journey is as lonely as snow...

Retrieving the hulking Hillbagon, Qin Shou approached the convulsing trio of Qiongqi.

Gazing at the three "Big Iron Bulls," Qin Shou stroked his chin.

"Hmm... While they’re not edible, their impressive defensive power means their meat should be quite chewy."

...

Before long, Qin Shou arrived at the Mutant Nest. Passing through the space channel along the underground dark river, he returned to Skull Island once more.

Reaching the lake where Godzilla resided, Qin Shou unleashed Rein Jia’er to summon Little Brother forth.

Moments later, the lake churned as the visibly larger Little Brother surfaced.

"Roooar..."

With a face full of resentment, Little Brother’s expression made Qin Shou burst into laughter.

Activating the monster translator, Qin Shou asked, "So, how’s it going? Is that Godzilla willing to come with you?"

Little Brother: "Don’t even mention it, those two Godzillas are way too lazy. All they do is sleep; unless they detect the presence of other Titan Giant Beasts, they won’t even think of leaving this place."

"Other Titan Giant Beasts?"

Qin Shou narrowed his eyes, thoughts swirling.

The underground cavern beneath this lake must be a frequent gathering place for Titan Giant Beasts, or else those two Godzillas wouldn’t be so reluctant to leave.

Since it wasn’t possible to lure Godzilla away, Qin Shou didn’t mind. After recalling Little Brother, he headed toward Vajra Territory.

While passing the Water Fort, he descended a "Miracle," upgrading the Three-pointed Two-bladed Blade wielding Three-headed Jiao to a Horror Seven Stars level before continuing to the Vajra Territory.

"Boom boom boom..."

Spotting Qin Shou’s return, King Kong turned around. After a moment of hesitation, it handed over a polished tree trunk to Qin Shou.

Want to try one?

That was probably its meaning.

Qin Shou: "..."

Politely declining King Kong’s gesture, Qin Shou approached Brother Monkey.

"Brother Monkey, how did it go?"

Brother Monkey gave a thumbs-up, "When I’m on the case, it’ll always be handled perfectly!

I’ve already negotiated with them. Old Third will head out with us to experience the world."

"That easily?" Qin Shou froze for a moment.

Brother Monkey leaned closer and whispered, "Actually, there aren’t any beauties on Skull Island, so King Kong’s idea was that when we return, we must bring a few lady gorillas to strengthen their lineage."

Qin Shou suddenly understood, "Oh, now I see. Anything for the future of their kids, truly so selfless. Poor gorilla parents everywhere..."

"In that case, let’s head back then!"

As Qin Shou spoke, he opened the System Space and instructed Brother Monkey to transfer the plants and terrain into the space, to ensure Little Vajra wouldn’t suffer "habitat disorientation."

With a tearful farewell, Little Vajra waved goodbye to its parents and siblings, slowly disappearing from King Kong family’s sight.

"Boom boom boom..."

"Roar..."

The Earth trembled as King Kong couple approached Qin Shou, pointing toward a distant mountain, beckoning him to follow.

Qin Shou nodded and followed them. Before his eyes, the colossal beasts dug open the mountain peak, revealing a buried giant skeleton.

"This is..."

Qin Shou’s eyes widened, locking onto the massive hundred-meter skeleton before him.

The skeleton of a two-limbed Skeleton Giant Lizard!

Pulling out the translator, Qin Shou heard King Kong let out a few roars.

"Human, whether our family can continue to thrive depends on you. This is for you."

Qin Shou twitched his cheeks; this guy had even learned how to give gifts.

It seems both humans and monsters lose their edge with age; they grow more tactful in their words and actions.

Thinking back to the old King Kong, a force that attacked planes impulsively—it’s worlds apart from now. That temper has softened...

Looking at the hundred-meter skeleton before him, Qin Shou estimated it to be at least a Nightmare Level Three Stars Skeleton Giant Lizard.

Observing the remaining energy in the skeleton up close, Qin Shou nodded slightly; though its energy was heavily depleted, it could still be synthesized into a Nightmare-Level Monster.

Thanking the King Kong couple, Qin Shou stored the giant skeleton away and disappeared into the horizon under the waves of the big gorillas.

As Qin Shou departed, the King Kong couple exchanged glances, smug smiles emerging on their faces.

"Roar..."

"Roooar..."

"See, didn’t I tell you? Humans love these big bones, you didn’t believe me."

"Seems humans really adore big bones. How about when Old Third comes back, we give them that even bigger bone?"

"No, the best stuff should be saved for last. If Old Third can’t bring back a wife, we’ll offer the biggest bone then—I just refuse to believe that human won’t go all out to help us find a spouse for Old Third."

"Hmm, hmm, dear, you’re truly the cleverest."

"Hehe, now you see how smart I am? Go toss that photo of the woman on your wall. She’s been dead for years, yet you still keep her picture like it’s a treasure..."

"Absolutely not; she was my first love."

"Oh great, an old fool still hung up on his first love. Have you forgotten you’ve got a troop of kids calling you dad already?"

...

Meanwhile, atop the greedy snake, Qin Shou naturally remained unaware of what he’d missed.

Pulling out the Big Big Wolf-crafted "Shengsheng Replenishing Pill," Qin Shou closed his eyes and swallowed the tiny pellet, unwilling to experience its taste.

If he could help it, he’d avoid consuming anything made from monkeys!
