Chapter 810 Meeting with the Pharmacist
"Huh? Hmm!"
Kashiwagi nodded, inexplicably feeling that this cold-faced girl in white looked familiar.
But I can't remember where I saw it.
A little weird.
You must know that he is someone who can easily recall the details of animation plots and game content. It is unreasonable to have an impression of a person but forget where he saw it.
When Kashiwagi was slightly surprised, the girl in white continued: "There was a fire suddenly in the south of the forest, and the overlord Orchid Mantis and its partners are over there. The fire is not serious, you can wait a little longer."
Fire?
Is it made of fire-type wild Pokémon?
In addition to lightning strikes, spontaneous combustion, volcanic eruptions, etc., the natural causes of forest fires in the Pokémon world are also caused by arson caused by fire-type Pokémon.
There are not many fire-type Pokémon that live in forests, but there are definitely some.
He looked towards the southern sky, but the shade of the trees was so dense that he could not observe the specific situation.
The heterochromatic Gengar flew up very thoughtfully. When he saw the smoke and fire in the distance, he lowered his head and shouted:
"Longga!"
"I know! Thanks for reminding me."
Bomu shouted to Gengar, thanked the girl in white and asked, "Are you a mountain collector?"
"I am a pharmacist, and I came to the Shade Jungle to collect medicinal materials." The girl in white showed the bamboo basket on her back. There were indeed many plants in it that he thought were inedible and might be used to make aromatherapy.
pharmacist!
Thoughts turned into lightning and flowed through my heart.
He vaguely guessed the reason why the girl in white looked familiar——
Simulation target pharmacist girl!
Although the identity of the other party cannot be immediately determined, it should be close to ten.
"pharmacist……"
Baimu pretended to be in deep thought, and then asked: "Where are your Pokémon? There are many wild Pokémon in the shade jungle. Isn't it dangerous to be alone here?"
Hearing this, the girl in white seemed to want to take something from her pocket, but stopped midway and instead picked up a leaf from the bamboo basket, put it to her lips and blew lightly.
Di~~
Amidst the clear and long cry, the sound of howling wind suddenly came from the woods, and a black shadow flickered back and forth.
It seems mysterious and strange.
Geng Gui's face was full of curiosity: "Longga?"
What kind of birdman comes out with a strong personality?
next moment.
A huge bird Pokémon with wings like a broad cloak, head feathers covering its face like a hood, and a knight-errant aura appeared in the tree behind the girl in white.
"Zui Na!"
It looked down at the cypress trees and Gengar, and dropped a piece of grass in its mouth into the bamboo basket.
Putting aside the former for now, the latter's expression of sudden realization made it feel inexplicably offended.
Why?
Sniper Tree Owl didn't understand.
Kashiwagi, who saw it, completely confirmed that the girl in white was the pharmacist, and gave him the memory of bomb making and the simulation object of the runner-up reward.
But his expression didn't change. After all, he was familiar with the pharmacist unilaterally. If he showed any unnecessary expressions, the other party might think he was crazy.
but.
Just by looking at her appearance, you can't tell that this girl with a cold temperament is actually the explosive genius with the talent of "Hot-Blooded Youth" in the simulation.
"Based on a true story"?
The simulation content does seem to be somewhat different from the chef's experience.
"A very strong Pokémon."
Kashiwagi praised.
The pharmacist thought he wanted to fight, so he replied: "I opened a home pharmacy in Kangdai City. If you are interested, you can come and visit me. I wish you success in passing the test."
She deliberately added an accent to the word "test" and then walked towards the gopher hole.
no doubt.
The gopher hole is by no means the only way to the outside world. It's just that the queen of the island, Lizzie, will guide the testers through the gopher hole. Why would a pharmacist drill a hole if he is just a medicine collector?
Kashiwagi suddenly remembered the gopher who refused to trade truffles with him, and asked, "Please wait!"
"What's wrong?"
The pharmacist turned half sideways.
He said bluntly: "I met a gopher in the hole who was entrusted to collect materials... Is it you who is being traded?"
Regardless of whether you ask first or not, you won't die if you ask.
The pharmacist faced him and asked, "Is there what you want in it?"
"Um."
Kashiwagi secretly praised the girl's sharp thinking and said: "It just picked a truffle. If you don't have any hard needs, can you let me? I can trade this with you."
He took out a pack of refreshing aromatherapy.
This thing is the kind of aromatherapy he uses most, and it works wonders when Pokémon feels tired or depressed.
The pharmacist didn't answer, "No, I really don't have any demand for truffles, please wait."
She said and climbed into the gopher hole with the sniper tree owl.
Two minutes later.
The pharmacist emerged from the gopher hole, and in her hand was the truffle that Cypress had been longing for. Without saying anything, she threw it directly over, "Here you go."
She actually took the initiative to bring the truffles.
[Kind-hearted] Talent...
"Try it! I made it myself, it's different from what's sold outside!"
Kashiwagi caught the truffle and threw the aromatherapy into her basket with her backhand.
I was really embarrassed to take advantage of a little girl. Even though he had already taken advantage of the simulated reward, the truffles were obtained from the gopher after all.
The pharmacist didn't say anything, nodded and got back into the hole.
Peace returned to the Overlord's residence.
Kashiwagi held the truffle and shook it towards Gengar, and said with a smile: "Another ingredient is here! Another dish for the evening!"
"Jie hee hee!"
Gengar grinned.
It doesn't know how to make truffles into dishes, it only knows how to eat them.
Inside the gopher hole.
The pharmacist walked a few steps and looked back. The sniper tree owl showed a strange expression.
"Chirp?"
"No...it's nothing, I just feel that the person is a bit 'familiar'." Ever since she saw Kashiwagi, she had always felt strange in her heart.
It's not that I hate it, but I saw something particularly familiar.
But the pharmacist was sure that he saw Kashiwagi for the first time.
"Illusion."
She could only think this way. She couldn't go back and check people's household registration. If they were destined to meet each other in the future - the Chinese medicine store had told him.
——
About half an hour passed.
Kashiwagi finally waited for the overlord Orchid Mantis and its partner Floating Bubble.
It's just that the two of them looked a little embarrassed, with traces of smoke everywhere on their bodies.
It’s not easy to put out a fire.
He frowned slightly, already thinking about it.
"Larang?"
At the same time, Overlord Lan Manhua also saw Bai Mu and Gengar sitting on the rock waiting, and then saw the Z bracelet on his wrist.
Dedicated, it quickly raised its pink double sickles.
"Lalang——"
Long!
Golden flames rose from under his feet, and the Overlord's aura silently rolled up an invisible wave of air, violently blowing the hems of the weeds and cypress trees!
"Wow?"
After hearing the sound, Floating Bubble looked up and saw extremely human helplessness flashing across the faces of Kashiwagi and Gengar.
What's more tiring than putting out fires?
Of course, after putting out the fire, you have to fight with people.
However, the challengers of the Island Tour are coming, and as the overlord Pokémon's partners, we have to fight together.
call!
The wind is roaring!
The pink energy petals swirled around the Overlord Orchid Mantis in the translucent airflow, forming a terrifying aura.
【Colorful fallen heroes】!
The air circle suddenly expands and attacks Kashiwagi and Gengar. This is Overlord Lan Mantra's favorite opening move to intimidate her opponents.
Unexpectedly, Kashiwagi turned around decisively and jumped into the gopher hole, with only one head exposed, shouting: "I'll come back tomorrow! You guys have a good rest today!"
Although Overlord Orchid Mantis was also a scumbag in front of him in his heyday, there is no need to bully others for their poor condition.
——Floating Bubble is almost putting on a world-weary face, how can he have the nerve to fight?
What's more, someone is watching!
Floating Bubble, who was about to open a sunny day, was stunned. He turned to look at his partner, the overlord Lan Manhua, with confusion on his face: "Wow?"
"Lalang..."
The overlord Orchid Mantis was also confused. It was the first time it saw a challenger who in turn accommodated itself. This had been its job before!
never mind.
Just run away.
Overlord Lan Mantis calmed down her overlord aura, sat down and breathed a sigh of relief, "Lalang~"
Putting out fires does consume a lot of energy, especially when a fire caused by a Pokémon burns a large area, scaring even grass-type Pokémon like it from getting close.
Fortunately, there are floating bubbles that are good at begging for rain.
Coupled with the fact that it used its solar blade to create several fire prevention lines, and the help of the island queen, the flames were barely extinguished.
And when she thought about the cause, Overlord Lan Manhua became extremely angry——
The night-thief Salamander stole the food of the Burning Insect in the eastern cave, causing the Vulcan Moth to pursue it. The two fought in the woods, causing a fire.
Shameless!
It hates fire-type Pokémon.
In a patch of grass in the distance.
Island Queen Lizzie looked at the gopher hole where Kashiwagi and Gengar went in and never came back, with a smile on her face.
——
The ingredients are almost there.
Kashiwagi looked at the notepad that was almost full, and thought that with the quantity and variety he had collected, not to mention one pot, there would be enough for five pots!
Unfortunately, the preliminary plan to challenge the overlord Orchid Mantis did not come to fruition.
It is difficult to get two Z pure crystals today...
Not a big problem.
Anyway, we have to go to Gurgling Hills to fight the Overlord Weak Tench. The Shade Jungle is very close to Gurgling Hills, so we can fight them both together.
"Speaking of which, should I start making spicy mushroom pot directly later, or should I fight with the Overlord Flame Queen Lizard first?"
He suddenly realized that this test might also include fighting against the overlord Flame Queen Lizard.
All right.
The problem is still not big.
It's the same difficulty level as asking him to cook.
Kashiwagi rode three evil dragons straight to the foot of the Vera Volcano. The opponent's habitat was similar to that in the game, deep in a cave of the volcano.
After a while.
Three evil dragons came to the sky above Wela Volcano.
He looked down from a high place and soon saw a huge cave in a mountain col where wild night thieving salamanders often came and went.
"That's it!"
"Ouch!"
The three evil dragons flapped their wings and landed directly.
The extraordinarily arrogant posture made the wild night-thief salamanders coming and going in the cave stop, and they all screamed intimidatingly at the three evil dragons in unison.
A smell that seemed to be fragrant but not fragrant, and seemed to be smelly but not smelly filled the air.
How could the three evil dragons endure such "grievance"?
Roar decisively and angrily!
"Whoops——!!"
The sound waves visible to the naked eye drove away the faint poisonous gas in the air. The night thieves showed horrified expressions and instantly lost the courage to look at the three evil dragons.
"That's right, your ability to show off your power has become stronger again."
Kashiwagi put on the gas mask and patted the heads of the three evil dragons in praise. When he looked at the Night Thief Salamander, he sighed: "It's poison gas again, so I really can't talk to wild Pokémon with poison attributes."
"Longa?"
Geng Gui emerged from the shadows in a daze.
"Are you wild? Don't get involved with domesticated ones!"
He glanced at the playful Gengar.
In the great business of hunting wild Pokémon, he basically stays away from Poison Pokémon because of their terrible smell.
Once he encountered a wild Stinkling with the [Smell] attribute, which almost traumatized him. He wanted to throw a Sun Stone or Leaf Stone at it on the spot.
What happened to Xiaozhi in the original series was really not for comedy effect.
It was really smelly!
It was even more smelly than the smelly socks that had been stored in the cellar for three months without being washed!
The poisonous gas of the Night Thief Salamander is certainly not that scary, but it is better not to inhale it. This thing is like poisonous mushrooms. If you get too much of it, you will easily fall down.
Kashiwagi took back the three-headed dragon, released Happiny, and said, "As usual, please."
"Happy!"
Happiny patted the trainer and Gengar on the chest, indicating that everything was up to it.
Gengar responded with a smile, "Geng Ga!"
Its poison attribute can only prevent it from being poisoned, but it can't be burned by fire. It is very necessary to bring Happiny, who is highly resistant to poison, with him.
Moreover, the dominant Pokémon generally calls a partner to come over, which is a doubles game.
"Fatty Special Forces! Let's go!"
"Geng Ga!"
"Happy!"
Kaishi led the two chubby Pokémon to the depths of the cave, without even looking at the hesitant Salamanders.
This kind of Pokémon is cowardly and timid. If it is frightened once and has a shadow, it will not dare to attack at will even if the three-headed dragon is not there.
So the evil attribute is actually very suitable for Salamanders.
The cave is not formed naturally.
From the wooden frame on the edge and the abandoned electric lights on the rock wall, it is not difficult for Kaishi to see that this is actually an abandoned mine.
"It's so spacious."
He looked at the mine tunnel in front of him, which was four or five meters high and more than three meters wide, and recalled the mines in Huangtie Town before. His tone was full of emotion and a little envious.
The mines in Huangtie Town were too cramped before, and it was so oppressive that it made people breathless.
The mines now should be similar to this one, right?
Kashiwagi has never been to a proper mine since Olei was liberated, except for the last time he went to an old mine to find out the entrance to the spirit world.
He had no idea what the new mines were like.
He subconsciously wanted to avoid the mines in Huangtie Town, and he would not go there if he could. He didn't know if it was caused by "Dragon and Harmony".
There were many wild night thief fire lizards running out from the depths of the cave.
They saw Kashiwagi and his party coming slowly, but did not attack, but quietly bypassed them, and seemed not to intend to drive away the uninvited guests.
Thanks to the indulgence of these guys.
Kashiwagi soon came to the deepest part of the cave, a steaming cave with a wide view.
Just one glance.
He saw the Overlord Flame Queen Lizard on the stone platform in the center of the cave. This enchanting guy was lying on the ground in a concubine's posture, with a small and exquisite Pokémon egg in his arms looming.
When the Overlord Flame Queen looked at the Pokémon egg, a humane look of kindness occasionally appeared.
Of course.
The Overlord Flame Queen also noticed the presence of the outsider, Kashiwagi. He slowly stood up and put the Pokémon egg away, slamming his tail on the ground like a whip.
Bang!
With a loud bang, countless pairs of eyes appeared in the darkness of the cave.
A dense crowd of night-thief fire lizards emerged.
