Elves: Angler's Rainy Day Team

Chapter 988: The bond begins to emerge

It was the 550th day of staying in the Orange Islands, and it was drizzling.

Boom, boom, boom——

Half a year later, in order to complete many projects smoothly, Yu Hai would only release the Zapdos to get some fresh air at night.

Just be patient and wait for the island to be built. In the past six months, there have been large-scale construction projects everywhere on the island, including the construction of a port school and apartment buildings.

The incubator and egg hatching room at the gym had been completed long ago, and the honeycomb cabin was also built elsewhere and was directly transported to the island for assembly. It was completed faster than other buildings, and the elves also moved into the cabin and lived together by the lake.

As the number of elves increased, friction between them was inevitable. Fortunately, a battle field was built by the lake. In addition, the leaders of these elves were all his elves, so these elves with conflicts could go to the battle field to resolve their conflicts.

There was nothing he could do if he couldn't defeat them, so he just wanted to motivate these elves to become stronger so they could hatch eggs. This was how he had been doing for the past six months. He didn't spend much time on training, and these elves became stronger on their own.

There is also an incubator, which was put into use as soon as it was built. The first batch of dragon babies were also hatched from the incubator. The wild Pokémon that were captured from Otsuka Island have now been cultivated to the quasi-king level and joined the task of hatching eggs.

As for hatching elves, he will not hatch too many elf babies. He will only hatch two or three babies of each type of elf. After these elf babies are picked up, he will let the incubation room hatch new elf babies to supplement them.

This way, the number of elves can be maintained and it will not expand too quickly, so that there will not be too many elves to support.

The immigration policy of collecting sponsorship fees from gyms and obtaining elves has also begun to show results. After hearing that he has a dragon-type quasi-god cub, some rich people actually come to capture elves.

His Pokémon can only be obtained by immigrants, so before sponsoring a gym, you must first settle down on Diaoyu Island. Immigrants who choose the sponsorship route cannot buy apartment buildings and can only go to the villa area to buy land and build villas.

With this bundled sponsorship, the tycoon not only had to sponsor the fishing gym, but also had to purchase villa land on Diaoyu Island. With this bundled sponsorship fee, he received 800 million in sponsorship fees just for a dragon-type quasi-god cub.

Except for dragon-type quasi-gods, ordinary dragon-type cubs have sponsorship fees of hundreds of millions. Pokémon cubs with ordinary attributes can cost from tens of millions to hundreds of millions, and can all be obtained by sponsoring gyms.

He only needs to let the elves hatch eggs to receive countless sponsorship fees legally and reasonably. He is no longer short of money. He has billions in liquid funds alone, not to mention the constant influx of immigrants, most of whom are poor people.

After these people arrive, he will provide them with jobs and simple free food and accommodation. He only needs these people's labor in exchange for their own houses, that's all.

If the rich buy villa land and want to build a villa, they have to hire a construction team. These immigrants can build villas for the rich without having to pay them. After these immigrants earn money, they have to spend it on the island.

The sales volume of the department store will increase, and good business will attract merchants to move in, the market will be revitalized, and the economy of Diaoyu Island will also be revitalized.

The port is also changing with each passing day. A department store has been built in the past six months, and the Pokémon Center and police station are also being selected for construction, because Diaoyu Island is finally inhabited.

More than 500 people, which means more than 100 families, immigrated in more than half a year. There are five apartment buildings alone, and each apartment building can accommodate 24 families.

It was precisely because Diaoyu Island had its first batch of residents that the Elf Center and the Police Station were built on this site. The more than one hundred immigrant families were also organized into three engineering teams by Luoyan to continue building more apartment buildings, or repairing roads, or building infrastructure for the port city.

The children from these more than one hundred families took more than one hundred ordinary elf cubs from the gym and went to school at the port school. They received free food and accommodation every day, including the elves.

After parents get off work and pick up their children from school, they can go back to their apartment building to rest.

The apartment building is simply decorated, with only water and electricity available. The rest of the decoration is being done by a construction team, and furniture can be purchased at the department store.

Half a year later, the department store was open for business. He had made it possible to provide free rent, and the products were of good quality and low price, which at least made it affordable for immigrants.

Not all of the immigrants' wages are used to pay off their mortgages; some is left for living expenses. This is what he meant by lengthening the mobilization cycle. The original six-year mortgage can be extended to eight or ten years, and immigrants can create more value for them.

These immigrants only needed to work for him for ten years, and the value created by their labor during those ten years was the source of the 80 billion. The larger the population, the greater the value. 80 billion was more than enough for him to build the entire island...

Over the past six months, Luo Yan has been learning continuously and finally has some management skills, at least he has learned how to keep accounts.

Xiao Ming also came to the port to help. The shops he had been dreaming of were already being planned and built, namely the commercial street and the hot spring street.

Xiaoshun's mother also rushed to Diaoyu Island and was arranged to cook in the kitchen of the dojo. The kitchen sisters who were seconded from Dunmei's family had also gone back. The dojo also needed to recruit some workers, so they assigned them to these acquaintances.

Maggie and Keita are still taking care of the orchard. After more than half a year, the fruit trees have grown a lot, and their wooden house has been built. When the commercial street is built, the two of them will be able to get a shop.

Ah Man's villa was also built, and he moved in with his family. He also brought his younger brother to the gym to get a Pokémon. Ah Man's younger brother chose Scyther. As expected, he was a child and liked bug-type Pokémon.

In the past six months, there have been more than 500 immigrants, and Ah Man contributed at least one-fifth of them. The small fishing village on Xiagan Island is almost deserted, as they were all persuaded by Ah Man to settle here. The old fishermen are working on the construction site.

The foreman is Ah Man's father, and the women who cook for the construction site are Ah Man's mother and others. Ah Man's younger brother also enters the elf school at the port to study.

Luo Yan and others would go to the school from time to time to act as elf coaches, explaining to the children the knowledge of elf cultivation and combat.

This is the gym leader coach he promoted before. He would visit the school from time to time, play elf battles with the children, and give them some advice. It is not considered false advertising.

After Aaron supervised the construction of several buildings in the incubator, he went back to supervise the transformation of the Lava Team prisoners. Before, it was Ah Man who helped him manage it, so he was able to find time to build the incubator.

After more than half a year of transformation, some members of the Lava Team who performed well have completed labor reform, are no longer prisoners of war, are assigned to the port's engineering team, and have obtained the right to reside on Diaoyu Island.

This is the purpose of Yu Hai keeping this group of people. Those who can be retrained and reformed through labor will be settled in Diaoyu Island and transformed into residents. The unruly troublemakers can be thrown directly into the crater to save the trouble of taking care of their food and drink.

The remaining stubborn people are still building the hot spring hotel. The hot spring hotel has been built to the third floor and it will be completed soon.

Once the hot spring hotel is completed, he will be able to officially open the gym, accept challenges from trainers, and distribute his fishing badges. The badge is a blue badge with a curved fishing rod, which will serve as a symbol of the fishing gym and will be distributed to trainers who challenge the gym.

There are not many Lava Team prisoners left. Because they were troublemakers who refused to obey discipline, they were kicked out a few months ago. The only ones left are those who can't let go of the obsession in their hearts.

As one of the two surviving cadres of the Lava Team, Huocun adapted quickly and had long since escaped from his status as a prisoner. He led a construction team alone at the port to build the infrastructure of the port city.

Huoyan is the stubborn one. Although he also works in the hot spring hotel, he has no intention of giving in, and he doesn't care.

Anyway, there is no end to the work on the island. Once the hot spring hotel is built, these workers will be sent elsewhere and only given food without wages. I don’t know who is losing out.

Anyway, he would never lose out, so he didn't want to let these prisoners escape from labor reform. After all, there were more than 60 people in the labor force. If these people still couldn't forget the Lava Team, he could keep this group of people working for him.

Sixty people, each earning 300,000 Alliance coins per month, that's more than 200 million in wages a year. As long as this group of people only provide food, he can save more than 200 million a year, which is 2 billion in ten years. In a year, he can save ten houses in an apartment building, which is 100 houses in ten years. Anyway, he will never lose money.

The hot spring hotel was built by this group of Lava Team prisoners. He only spent money on materials and did not pay a penny for labor. This group of people helped him build a hotel, which is really useful!

Aaron's family also moved here during the past six months, and Xiaoyu's departure was just a matter of a phone call.

Xia Bo was still worried about these little girls. Since Yu Hai wanted them, Xia Bo readily let them go.

After the hot spring hotel is built, Aaron's wife will prepare for the decoration of the hotel. Even though they both live in the dojo, the couple are sometimes so busy that they don't see each other once a day.

Xiaoyu was also sent to the Pokémon school, where there were over a hundred children of the same age. There was no need to worry about anything happening at the school. Xiaoming and Dashi would usually leave one of them behind to oversee the school, acting as a Pokémon coach, teaching the students Pokémon physical education classes, and preventing any emergencies.

Seeing that everything on the island was back on track, he was able to take a break from his busy schedule, took his old friend and went to the big pond next to the gym to go fishing.

The water elves in this pond are basically water elves with relatively low potential. Some of them were thrown here because their potential was too poor after hatching, and some were water elves fished out of the sea.

The water Pokémon in this pond are prepared for the gym's fishing challenge. Before the gym's fishing challenge officially begins, he plans to cast a few rods to try it out.

When fishing, Pokémon such as Frog, Lucario, and Slowking also follow him. These little guys like to meditate beside him and enjoy a moment of peace.

There is also a special Pokémon here, it is Kirlia, who was won by Lucario after more than half a year of effort to improve his favorability. At the invitation of Lucario, he finally joined the Fishing Gym.

The Pokémon locked up with Kirlia include Oolong, Charaim, Milotic, Blaziken, and others.

The Super Stone that was used to touch the Flame Chicken was taken from this Flame Chicken. Among these imprisoned Pokémon, some have no trainers, and some have trainers.

He has handed over the Pokémon with trainers to Miss Junsa, asking Miss Junsa to help find the trainers and return the Pokémon captured by Team Magma, which does not include Kirlia.

He was also able to indirectly conquer this female Kirlia, but her potential was not very good. After evolving once, her potential was only forty-eight. If she could evolve again, perhaps she could reach the potential of a king!

This Kirlia only trusts Lucario and does not trust him as a human. It takes time for them to get along with each other. If Kirlia wants to fight, there will definitely be a lot of training resources. But that's all for later.

He did not reveal the identities of the other Pokémon he handed over to Miss Junsha, whether he had his men do it or went to the Hoenn region to return the Pokémon.

After all, Blaziken's Super Stone is gone. Is he revealing his identity just to wait for the owner to come to him? So let the owner go and argue with Miss Junsha!
After throwing the bait into the pond, he sat down quietly and fell into deep thought. During this period, he had made some progress in his research on the evolution of bonds.

He found that his intimacy with the Frog was sufficient, and the reason why he could not restrain its evolution was insufficient energy.

Gengar is a good example. If there is enough energy, Gengar can complete Mega Evolution on its own without the need for a trainer. If this is the case, Bond Evolution does not work, and it should be Mega Evolution.

The production team did not draw the super evolution of Frog, but he did not believe that an evolution in the real world would not allow other Pokémon to break through their own limits.

Even Pokémon like Pteranodon have atavism symptoms, and Pokémon like Frog, Slowking, and Lucario naturally have them as well.

As for the breakthrough energy that determines whether Frog can super evolve, he sets his sights on Lucario, or more precisely, the wave energy.

After Lucario obtained the goat horns and the slate fragments, his potential continued to increase. Now he has reached the potential of a senior king, and it won't be long before he can break through to the potential of a quasi-champion.

Lucario is like Frog, both little guys are Pokémon with very low potential. It goes without saying how hard it has been for them to be cultivated to this stage. If it weren't for the Super Stone and the slate fragments in the Alliance Treasury, it wouldn't be so easy to exchange them.

He has been studying this recently, regarding the phenomenon of waveguide resonance, whether it can stimulate Frog to mega evolve, and in turn stimulate Lucario to mega evolve.

Unfortunately, he didn't have a waveguide, so he couldn't feel the status of Froggy and Lucario. He could only let Froggy, Lucario, and Slowking study together and keep trying.

There are only three routes to super evolution now...

First, use the super stone to super evolve

The second is to use energy to break through the limits of the elves and perform super evolution.

The third one, bond evolution...

In addition to using wave energy to stimulate the atavism phenomenon, he also plans to let Lucario use wave energy to connect him and Frog, so that they can achieve spiritual resonance and stimulate Frog's bond evolution.

Although their slogans were very childish every time they tried, the quasi-champion-level fire-breathing camel as their opponent could also put enough pressure on the fast-swimming frog.

But the result of the attempt was not ideal, and the bond evolution state of the Frog was never triggered, but there was still some change.

After continuous waveguide resonance, the moisture characteristics of the fast swimming frog disappeared...

【Fast swimming frog】

[Attribute: Water + Fighting]

[Gender: Male]

[Potential: 79.89%]

[Level: 77.12%]

[Features: ??? / ???%] [Hidden Feature: Effortless Movement / 72.21%]

[Master the moves...]

There is no need to say much about the potential of the fast swimming frog. With the help of the fragments of the big white gem, it has broken through to the quasi-champion level. It is just one step away from breaking through the championship potential. Next, it needs to settle down for a while and digest the energy in its body.

He had thought about using the slate fragments to stimulate the super evolution of the fast swimming frog, but after trying it a few times, he found that it was a bit too costly and too painful, so he stopped trying.

The change in characteristics was the result of those attempts. With the help of the slate fragments, the resonance between the trainer and the Pokémon was connected by waveguide energy, and the moisture characteristic disappeared.

He didn't know what this change meant. Could it be that the characteristics of an elf could be changed after birth? This was truly unheard of.

He had seen this kind of thing in the anime, for example, Ash's Greninja. It's impossible for Greninja to have the Bond Transformation trait from the beginning, so it could only be the Torrent trait or the Changeable trait.

Greninja can finally evolve through bond evolution, and Greninja can show the characteristics of bond transformation. It is probably the result of such slow evolution. It was not until the final Kalos Tournament that Greninja completed its final bond evolution.

However, Ash and Greninja are passive evolutions, while he and Froggy are active evolutions.

He also took this into consideration and felt that this change was related to the bond evolution, so he asked Lucario to use waveguide to connect him and Frog, allowing this change to slowly appear.

This is a more cost-effective approach. If he wants to speed up the progress, he may be able to use slate fragments to accelerate the evolution and allow the characteristics to transform as quickly as possible.

He wanted to see how this characteristic would evolve under the guidance of waveguide resonance. This might take a long time, and he didn't know how long it would take.

He now fishes whenever he has time, and sits quietly with the fast-swimming frog, letting the waveguide connect their minds together, hoping that over time, new changes will appear in their characteristics.

He was also looking forward to it, wondering if this change could be a bond evolution...
