Chapter 512: An unprecedented crisis, the Blue Flame Blade Ghost is overwhelmed by a sense of crisis!
Although the initial consideration was to select fruitworms with "mature" characteristics and only bring these fruitworms back to the farm.
But after actually experiencing it, Luo Mu found that he still couldn't bear to be cruel.
Being able to make the timid fruit-eating worms choose to follow him actively, both he and Fengmi Dragon should not let them down.
The "glutton" trait simply means eating more, and the "bulletproof" trait is just "thick fat", "vitality" or "adhesion" in the three different evolution options.
Luo Mu thought for a moment and decided to pack them all up and take them back to the farm.
Fortunately, he prepared enough Poké Balls. After a while, the fourteen red and white Poké Balls with grass stickers on them had their own owners.
Speaking of which, these fruitworms are the most numerous species of Pokémon raised on the farm. The record was once held by the Miltanks.
Although he had the "gift" given to him by the group of yellow-haired Kentaro, a total of eleven Pokémon eggs.
But it is impossible for all the Pokémon hatched from eggs to be Milcanoch. There will be some Kenshin mixed in.
This way they can't beat the fruit-eating worms.
After taming them, Luo Mu released them again and allowed them to move freely.
It happened to be quite quiet here, so he planned to camp here tonight and set off for the nearby Xueza Town tomorrow morning.
By the way, you can also visit Hanzawa, a young man who moved from the Johto area to the Padia area and is running the Big Milk Can House.
He must have his own unique insights into the Pokémon eggs of Miltank and the others. By the way, I can tell him about that and see if he wants to see it.
In the early morning of October 10th, with the help of the Blacksmith, Luo Mu cleaned up the camp and took away all the garbage. He then put on his backpack and walked to Xueza Town instead of riding Dragonite.
Xuezha Town is not far from the North District 2. Head eastward and you will reach the East District 3. You don’t need to climb over those bare rocky mountains. Just walk a little further and you will reach the mining area.
By taking a ride with the miners who were going home for lunch, you can reach Xuezha Town before lunchtime.
Since he had lived in Xuezha Town for a period of time, Luo Mu was very familiar with the environment here and how to get around.
In the past, he often brought Luke Cat and Vine Snake through this rocky mountain to the North District 2 where there were abundant supplies, and ordered some food for himself based on the knowledge in his mind.
Time flies, and in a blink of an eye it is noon.
With the help of his mouth, Luo Mu got the qualification to take a free ride back to Xuezha Town.
But this ride is actually an excavator.
The rumbling sound of the engine gradually became quieter, and the outline of Xuezha Town came into view.
Unless there is an engineering work mission, excavators are generally not allowed to enter the town, so this "hitchhiking" was parked directly outside the town.
"Thank you for giving me the ride, brother."
Luo Mu opened the door and got out of the car from the passenger seat, politely thanking the middle-aged man who was shutting down the engine.
The man was probably in his forties or fifties, and his figure was a little out of shape. He didn't mind Luo Mu calling him that, and instead felt a little happy inside.
After all, who doesn’t like to be called younger?
If a handsome guy in his teens or twenties calls me "Big Brother", wouldn't that mean that my age has been reduced by ten or twenty years?
It was because Luo Mu was so sweet-talking that he gave him a ride.
"It's okay, it's just a side trip."
The man forced a smile and skillfully took out a pack of cigarettes from his trouser pocket. He clicked his lighter and smoke rose.
After taking a puff of cigarette, he felt that his stress was relieved a lot.
At this moment, he looked into Luo Mu's dark eyes for a second, as if he remembered something. He coughed a few times, quickly exhaled the smoke that had passed through his lungs into the air, and stomped out the cigarette butt with his foot.
The man smiled awkwardly: "I almost forgot, what you young people hate most is the smell of cigarettes."
Luo Mu didn't say anything, but he really didn't intend to touch these things.
"Although I smoke to relieve stress and soothe my mood, you young people should not follow my example."
The man sniffed his collar, as if concerned about whether the smell of smoke would cling to it.
At the same time, he waved his hand and said, "You said you were going to visit the Big Milk Can House, right? There's always a long queue there at noon, so you'd better go early."
"Although the price of their Moo Moo fresh milk has increased recently, everyone can tell whether the quality is good by drinking it. With word of mouth, there are even more customers."
"I understand, thank you for reminding me."
Luo Mu accepted the man's kind reminder, waved at him, turned around and walked into Xuezha Town.
Walk all the way to the ranch marked "Big Milk Can House".
Just as the man said, there was a long queue.
Probably because Hanzawa likes to get enough sleep in the morning before getting up, the time for selling fresh Moo Moo milk is set at noon. The reputation is good, and buyers are free at this time, so queues are expected.
Luo Mu quietly came to the end of the team. Among the crowd, there were some people wearing miners' hats, obviously they had just returned from the mine.
It's just that they no longer have that preferential price.
To be honest, Luo Mu is quite envious of Banze's life.
I sleep until I wake up naturally every day. When the big milk tanks are hungry, they will eat grass by themselves. At most, I will do some work in the afternoon. Because it is Moo Moo Fresh Milk, I actually earn a lot.
Damn it. The more I talk about it, the more I feel like this is my ideal life.
The queue was well organized and everyone was very conscientious. They took the Moo Moo milk, paid and left. No one cut in line and the order was well maintained.
So looking at the long queue, Luo Mu actually waited for less than ten minutes before he was at the front of the line.
He took a step forward and said:
"Please give me a bottle of Moo Moo fresh milk at room temperature."
"Okay, one bottle is 600 Alliance Coins."
Hanze, who was busy keeping accounts, noticed that his assistant, Milk Tank, did not move. He raised his head and was about to remind him when his eyes met Luo Mu's.
"Luo Mu!?"
Hanzawa exclaimed in surprise.
"It's been a few months since we last met." Luo Mu smiled and reminded, "There are still people waiting behind us. Let's talk later."
Luo Mu took a bottle of room-temperature Moo Moo fresh milk from the big milk can that he recognized from the beginning, and stood aside to taste it.
After taking a small sip, he simply released Dragonite and the others and gave them a sip to taste the Moo Moo Milk, which was completely different from the Moo Moo Milk produced in Padia and had the taste of "Johto".
After all, Hanzawa is a ruthless man who can airlift an entire ranch's worth of soil and grass from Johto. Even in a foreign country, he can stand on the soil and grass of his hometown.
When Hanze finished his work and walked over with Miltank with an apologetic look on his face, only the Blue Blade Demon and the Burning Bug were left by Luo Mu's side.
The other Pokémon returned to their Poké Balls to rest.
"Sorry to keep you waiting."
"Milu~"
One person and one pet, their movements, tone and voice were in unison. Luo Mu didn't mind these, but pointed to the tables over there and asked: "Do you need our help?"
"Thank you for your help. I will treat you to the specialties of our Johto region later."
Hanzawa was quite straightforward and readily agreed, and also made a promise.
Luo Mu walked straight over and lifted up a table, trying to order food, "Can I not have sashimi or sushi, or a cold bento?"
"Of course, I have a bad stomach, so I usually eat hot food."
"Yan Bu~"
Holding the furry burning bug, Luo Mu looked at the bustling kitchen with a look of surprise.
An upright pig-shaped Pokémon with a fat body and flames burning on its neck, resembling Zhu Bajie in the story of Journey to the West, is busy in the kitchen.
This is a Pokémon from the Unova region, one of the starter Pokémon distributed to novice trainers by the Unova Alliance. It is the final evolved form of the fire-attributed Enthusiastic, Enthusiast.
That is what we commonly call the Second Brother.
What surprised Luo Mu the most was that this Yanwu King was actually wearing a white chef's hat and looked like a chef, and was busy cooking several special hot dishes from the Chengdu area.
The big milk can also put on an apron and started helping on the side.
It's just weird.
Hanze brought a cup of hot cocoa milk mixed with some cocoa powder and asked Luo Mu to taste it again.
As the weather gets colder, this cup is enough to warm people up from the bottom of their hearts.
With Hanzawa's consent, Uruk-O, Little Blacksmith, Honey Dragon, Flower Therapy Ring, Dragonite, and the Fruit Gnawers all ran to the vast pasture behind Milktank's House to play.
Apart from the burning bug that served as a pillow, the only person following Luo Mu was the Cang Yan Blade Ghost who was looking at King Yanwu with a serious look.
Of course, the reason why Azure Blade Demon is afraid of Flame King is not because of its strength, but because they are both Fire-attribute Pokémon and they are both cooks. The threat of Flame King to it is too great.
After all, the Azure Blade knew that he was limited by his physical condition, and could only use the weak spiritual power that all ghost-type Pokémon had more or less mastered to control the skewers with his mind, or to brush them with oil and sprinkle them with seasonings.
On the other hand, this Yanwu King is proficient in cooking, frying, boiling, frying and stir-frying, and can even fine-tune the firepower by himself. It is a complete superior substitute for the Cang Yan Blade Ghost.
this is not good!
Logically speaking, the Blue Blade Demon should not be so wary of King Yanwu. After all, King Yanwu is also the "chef" of the Hanzawa family.
But the problem lies in what Banze mentioned when he introduced King Yanwu to Luo Mu.
This Enthusiast is not Hanze’s Pokémon, but the chef he hired!
King Yanwu can not only cook special dishes from various regions, but Banze also said that his cooking skills are quite good, which makes Luo Mu look forward to it.
But Banze also mentioned that if Luo Mu needed it, he could act as a middleman and introduce a Pokémon chef to Luo Mu.
There are the Flame Fox that excels at visual cooking, the Blazing Roaring Tiger that specializes in pure meat cooking, and even an all-around Pokémon chef like Enthusiast.
From the perspective of Cang Yan Ren Gui, who was watching silently on the side, he felt that his sense of crisis was about to explode.
Its strongest enemy is not the Iron Warrior, but this Flame King, or even that new Western Pokémon Cooking School!
After meal.
Cang Yan Ren Gui had to admit that King Yan Wu was indeed quite capable.
But on the other hand, it is also confident that it will never lose to it in the field of barbecue.
Fortunately, Luo Mu did not mention the Pokémon Cooking School during the chat, and neither did Hanze, which made Cang Yan Blade Demon feel a little relieved.
With its mind calmed, it went to the grass outside and silently repeated the sword-practicing movements.
If it guessed correctly, since Luo Mu came to find Mr. Hanzawa, the showdown would probably be tonight.
It is necessary to eliminate distractions and maintain peak condition.
Inside the house, Luo Mu was holding a furry self-heating insect and chatting with Banze while watching TV programs.
When Banze asked whether Luo Mu came here just to have a meal, Luo Mu knew that the time had come.
He said, "Do you remember when I contacted you before?"
Hanzawa paused in the action of peeling peanuts and exerted a little force with his hands, not caring even though the peanut shells and peanuts broke into pieces in his palms.
"You mean the hero thing?"
Hanze was somewhat expectant, yet somewhat hesitant.
He was afraid that the "hero" Luo Mu mentioned was not the one he was looking for.
"Yes, but I'm not sure if it is the hero you mentioned. And I didn't bring any camera equipment with me during the previous encounters, so I never found you."
"But as far as I can tell, at least in terms of the characteristics you describe, they are pretty much the same."
Luo Mu spoke clearly.
"So you came all the way to see me this time?"
As if he had guessed something, Banze looked at Luo Mu expectantly.
"Well, one thing is related to this, and the other thing has something to do with my farm."
Luo Mu nodded.
First, he mentioned the five big milk tanks in his farm, which managed to produce eleven Pokémon eggs for him. He might need to learn some detailed knowledge from Hanzawa.
Then, he told Hanze about the battle between the Iron Warrior and the Blue Flame Blade Demon, which was to be decided on the top of the rocky mountain in the mine outside the town of Xueza, as well as the cause and effect.
Because Hanzawa didn't know the concept of "Paradox" Pokémon, Luo Mu spent some time educating him about it.
After a conversation, we talked about the hot cocoa milk in the cup cooling down.
Hanzawa's pupils also trembled slightly, as if he was recalling something, and he murmured thoughtfully: "No wonder I couldn't find any relevant traces, so it turned out to be the "Paradox"? "
Hanzawa once speculated that the hero who saved him might be Aledo.
But when he actually saw an Aledo in person, he could tell the difference right away.
Aledo is a knight and a swordsman, and the hero he pursues is a dancer who dances with swords. His elegance is more like Gardevoir, another branch of Ralts' evolution.
But if it is a "paradoxical species" that combines the characteristics of both, then all the previous doubts can be explained.
"Thank you for bringing me such important news."
Banze held Luo Mu's hand, his face full of gratitude.
"We still have plenty of time to discuss the matter of the elf eggs this afternoon."
"On the other hand, can you take me with you to watch the game tonight?"
