Chapter 445 The only Person Collecting Illustrations
Ajin suddenly didn't want to give the egg to Professor Sorumu. He had never seen a Pokémon egg in the ancient ruins before. How could he not hatch it?
However, in order to avoid Professor Sorumu telling his mother about the arson incident in the institute, he had to give the egg to him first and then ask for it.
He made up his mind and said goodbye to Pokémon Grandpa and set off on his way home.
Zhouyou looked at the sky approaching dusk and decided to have a picnic on Route 30, which was surrounded by mountains and rivers.
"Tonight, Xiaoyin will go to steal the illustrated book. After confirming his attitude towards Chikorita, we will go to the Alufu Ruins and the Shendu Ruins to find out if there are any remaining Pokémon eggs. Let's take a boat from Azure City to Shuijing City."
Then walk and play along the route of Shuijing, Yinyu, and Zijin. On the way, you can also go to the hunting zone to experience the life of Xicui and visit the sealed Regis Chiru in the ancient tomb.
Speaking of the pillars of Hoenn, the inscription he saw with Kamishiro at the Light Mountain a year ago had been deciphered and sent over, and the ruby was also sent to the research institute for Professor Oak to study.
It feels like Professor Oak is always very busy... Should he be more lame and give him fewer additional research projects?
While slowly setting up the camping and portable kitchen sets, Zhou You planned the next itinerary.
Eden was not optimistic about letting the thief take away the beginner Pokémon: "Qiao Qiao, are you so sure that Sakaki's son will steal it? What if he is a scumbag like Team Rocket?"
"I don't know, wait until after dinner to watch. If he is not lucky, beat him up and take Chikorita back. If he is okay, use him to lure the remnants of Team Rocket and Sakaki according to the handsome guy's plan."
The illustrated book, Poké Balls, and Miracle Seeds carried by Chikorita are all equipped with transmitters. Once Xiaoyin takes them away, he can use them to track and eavesdrop on the other party.
As for the chrysanthemum leaf... it's a good choice to give it to Xiaozhi. Anyway, Tiangu will return to Oak Research Institute as the backyard manager in a while.
Eden was a little excited when he heard it: "Okay, I'll keep an eye on it at night! But illusions don't work on creatures that are too far away. I'll use my magical power to control the refractive index, but I need to use the environment nearby in advance to avoid revealing flaws."
"Let's go together after dinner."
Zhou You, who had installed the equipment, released all the elves and then buried his head in cooking. It's not easy to take care of such a big family without Xiaogang's big pot.
...
After a busy afternoon, Chris finally roughly figured out the elf divisions, data and subjects of Route 30. As long as she stayed for a while to check for omissions, she could go to the next area.
While dragging her tired, sleepy and hungry body towards the Jihua City Elf Center, she suddenly realized a problem: "Why do I feel that I am the only one who is seriously collecting illustrations?"
A Jin wants to play all the time, while Xiao Huang is a fisherman who is addicted to wild fishing.
The latter is not so bad, fishing and collecting aquatic Pokémon illustrations at the same time reduce their work.
But isn't the idle Ajin just making up the numbers?
When she thought of this, Chris felt even more tired.
Just at this moment, the little saw crocodile, who had been full of energy from morning to night, seemed to smell something and rushed to the lake not far away with his hands and feet dancing.
"Dali Beng, wait for me!"
Chris hurriedly chased after him, and after running through a few bushes, she saw Zhou You camping by the lake.
And Zoroark, Charizard, Windy Dog, Leafeon, Chickadee, Articuno, Flower Beibei, Harpy Vulpix, Circle Bear... and a group of wild Pokémon such as Caterpillar, Pidgeot, and Mosquito Repellent who were watching and waiting to be fed nearby, and a little saw crocodile pestering Zhou You for food.
Oh no, that little saw crocodile was obviously hers.
By the way, did the Pokémon the other party carry exceed the limit? Can't researchers only bring one extra research ball after the license is approved?
After all, Xicui's ball does not have an Internet connection function, so it will not be counted in the carrying limit, or it will be locked by the Poké Ball Management System...
"Sorry, senior, I'm sorry to bother you." Chris hurriedly took back the little saw crocodile that was extremely excited by the surrounding environment.
"Just call me Qiao Qiao. Are you planning to go back to Jihua City? Just eat at my place."
Glancing at Chris's full harvest, Zhou You, who was not idle, reminded: "Even in the same area, the distribution will change due to time and weather. Pokémons like Gugu, Rattata, and Orb-Silk Spider are used to appearing at night, and mosquitoes tend to walk away from ponds on humid days. As a worker collecting illustrations, you must be mentally prepared to eat wind and drink dew as a daily routine."
Although Zhou You has never worked so hard, his goals are those extremely rare or even legendary Pokémons, and the completion status is exceptionally outstanding.
"Thank you, then I'm welcome."
Chris put down her backpack and tools and sat down very upright.
She seemed to be someone who particularly abided by rules and principles. Zhou You thought, she would not be defeated by the other three people who could not help.
Fortunately, Chris's love for elves and knowledge and her talent for capturing made her work quite handy.
Looking at Zhou You's flying knife skills, Chris had already started to take a rest and planned to collect data on nocturnal elves on Route 30 tonight.
However, as the other party's cooking progress continued to improve, her expression gradually became more exciting.
Geely egg rolls, moo cheese, lime cod, hodgepodge pizza that seems to offend a certain region, flavored stews with unknown ingredients, potato puree with mysterious seasonings, and various tree fruits with strange aromas Prepared juices, rice pudding and other desserts after meals, etc...
Are you treating the picnic as some kind of party?
Where are the bentos, rice balls, bread, sandwiches and curry rice?
In the end, even the knowledgeable Chris couldn't recognize the specific materials used by Zhou You. She only felt that the various spices, seasonings and various tree fruits were unheard of and unseen.
But the custard fruit used to make soup should be an extremely valuable tree fruit that can increase the reflex speed of elves, right?
Isn't it the lanza fruit that is said to bring good luck even if you hold it, paired with the green pentagram-like tree fruit to make the juice?
"Senior Qiaoqiao, even if you bring a lot of elves, there is no need to make it so rich. Don't you have energy cubes?" Kris was a little worried that the other party would charge her after she finished eating.
"Ah, is there? I also think today's meal is a bit crude because we are in the wild. And my elves don't like eating energy cubes very much."
Even dogs don't like to eat dog food, and elves who are smarter and more emotional naturally don't like to eat energy cubes after eating.
Seasoning is truly one of mankind’s greatest inventions.
But this also caused Zhou You to always worry about what would happen if their nutrition was not balanced.
"By the way, Chris, this is candlewood jam. You can take it away and give it to the crocodile as a snack." Zhou You complained with a headache. "Last year, I planted too many crops and couldn't finish them all. I even gave them back to my friends. There are several tons of various products left, and now my farm is almost idle as the stock is being sold out all day long.”
Chrissy:…
What you should be worried about is that your elves are over-nourished!
Chris felt even more tired after eating.
