Monster Hunter: Farm Story Begins with Pokémon

Chapter 329 A Little Power Shock (4k, supplemented on April 4.22)
Under the auspices of Qishu.

Bai Zhen was invited to compete in strength with Pokémon like Monster.

Although Bai Zhen himself has not tested the upper limit of his strength, but in terms of strength, Bai Zhen now exceeds the strange power by a long way.

"It's better to let in a little bit of water. It's not good to reveal all your cards right away."

There is a difference between giving your all in a gym battle and giving it your all in a testing match like this.

It is easy for people to deduce a lot of information from revealing your specific strength values.

"Then let's start with the barbell~! Let's start with a 2-ton weight~!"

Bai Zhen came to the high-tech barbell.

This barbell is specially designed for strength Pokémon training.

There is no need to add barbell plates, just adjust the value to increase the weight of the barbell rapidly.

Bai Zhen looked at the maximum weight of the barbell, which could reach up to 10 tons.

A weight of 10 tons is very heavy in the world of Pokémon, but it is not so exaggerated that it is difficult to achieve.

Just like a bronze elephant, it can lift 5 tons of cargo easily. Its evolved form, the King Statue, even has the power to tow an airplane with ease.

There is also Haril's final evolution, Brikaron, who has the power to knock over a 50-ton tank.

Take the first form of super strength, the wrist strength, for example. It is described as having the power to throw away 100 adults. A standard adult weighs 70kg. When the enhanced skill of the wrist strength is activated, it can throw a stone weighing about seven tons.

Before Bai Zhen traveled through time, he was very curious about the fact that there were very few weapons like tanks and fighter jets in the Pokémon world. Even weapons like guns only appeared in the original series a long time ago.

Only after he arrived did he realize that those weapons were far inferior to the Pokémon themselves.

Moreover, according to the current development of technology, weapons such as guns and tanks are all considered "spears of primitive people". The technology of this world has developed to the point where it can fight against many legendary Pokémon.

Those legendary Pokémon on TV that are often caught and look very weak cannot be said to be really weak.

For example, in the 14th episode of "Pokémon Generations" "Frozen World", Kyurem froze the entire city with one blow.

They appear weak in the anime only because the level of technological development in this world is really high.

If humanity's cutting-edge technology is used against a legendary Pokémon, that legendary Pokémon will be completely suppressed.

After all, many enemies have been preparing in the dark for decades, or even longer, to capture legendary Pokémon.

Bai Zhen walked to the barbell while thinking about something.

I could hear Qishu hosting the show: "Then let's start with 2 tons and gradually increase the weight."

Bai Zhen grabbed the barbell with both hands and tried hard to lift it up.

As soon as he exerted force, Bai Zhen felt that the barbell was a bit heavy: "A bit heavy. Is 2 tons really that heavy?"

Bai Zhen took a deep breath, tensed all his muscles, and burst out with unimaginable energy.

A staff member saw Bai Zhen's action and quickly reminded him: "Mr. Qianzhou, that barbell."

Before he finished speaking, Bai Zhen lifted the barbell up with both hands.

The scene fell into silence instantly.

Beside Bai Zhen, the guy with strange strength, who was asking the staff to help adjust the weight of the barbell, looked at the barbell that Bai Zhen raised above his head with a look of shock on his face.

Bai Zhen maintained it for three or four seconds and then threw the barbell to the ground.

Under the protective gear, Bai Zhen exhaled and thought to himself, "This must be more than 2 tons, right? Is this a covert operation?"

Bai Zhen has never tested his strength with specific numbers.

He usually trains on huge rocks on the seashore. Compared with those rocks with a diameter of three or four meters, this barbell is about twice as heavy.

Seeing that the surroundings were extremely quiet, Bai Zhen looked around in surprise and found that everyone at the scene was looking at him in disbelief.

The staff member who reminded Bai Zhen before finished the second half of his sentence: "The barbell has not been adjusted to the maximum weight yet."

Maximum weight?
Bai Zhen turned his head and looked at the number displayed on the barbell plate on the right end - 10T.

Bai Zhen was silent.

No wonder he felt a little heavy just now, it actually weighs 10 tons.
The people around also exclaimed: "How amazing!"

"Is that true? 10 tons?"

Bai Zhen's ears were filled with exclamations, and even Qishu's live broadcast room was in an uproar.

This weight is a level that many power-type Pokémon cannot reach!

Even Ah Fu's extraordinary strength cannot do this.

Under the protective gear, Bai Zhen smiled bitterly.

I just said I wanted to add some water, but I didn't expect to cause trouble.

He was just thinking about how powerful the other Pokémon were and didn't notice whether the barbell was set up or not.

However, Bai Zhen did not expect that he actually possessed such great power. He had not had a clear concept of it before, but now it finally became clear.

His current physical attack value is almost the same as that of the non-mega evolved Brachiosaurus. Brachiosaurus can throw away a Brute Jaw weighing more than ten tons, so naturally he can do the same.

At this point, Bai Zhen just went with the flow and completed the exclusive interview with Qishu.

Bai Zhen gave vague answers to many questions.

For example, asking where Pokémon like Brachydios are found.

Bai Zhen answered that he had encountered it in a secret place. This answer was not a lie. And the answer of secret place was generally accepted by everyone. After all, with the development of science and technology, there are still many areas that humans have never set foot on.

For example, someone asked why Bai Zhen was able to use Pokémon moves.

Bai Zhen’s answer was that everyone’s physique is different, and this is his personal talent.

There was also a question about how the Crimson Lotus Armor Rider managed to use water-based moves, to which Bai Zhen replied that his Crimson Lotus Armor Rider was an outlier, different from other Crimson Lotus Armor Riders.

Bai Zhen answered many questions with vague answers.

As for the origins of his protective gear and weapons, Bai Zhen said that they were due to his talent.

Of course, there were also some things that Bai Zhen generously disclosed.

For example, there is a fighter, namely Ah Fu, who is curious about what Bai Zhen’s usual training plan is like.

Bai Zhen also generously disclosed the physical training plan that Emrido had previously developed for him.

Before the Hundred Dragons Night Parade, Bai Zhen had a hard time completing that training plan, but now it was easier for him to complete it. This plan no longer allowed him to squeeze out his potential.

But it was this half-meter-long training plan that made everyone feel that Bai Zhen was joking.

What? Long-distance running of 100 kilometers every day, swinging a 50kg sledgehammer 10000 times, bench pressing 100kg 10000 times, etc. These training plans don't seem to be something that ordinary people can accomplish. The most shocking thing is that the previous training can only be regarded as warm-up.

There are also 1-ton weighted frog jumps and other activities later on, and these heavy weight data are even more unimaginable.

Let's say that 50kg sledgehammer is swung 10000 times.

A 50kg sledgehammer is very light for someone of Bai Zhen's level of strength. It's as light as holding a small iron rod. But even with this small iron rod, if you swing it ten thousand times, you'll be too tired to lift your arms.

After this training plan was announced, about a day or two later, a very famous fighter tried to train according to Bai Zhen's plan. The result was naturally that he was completely exhausted before he could even complete one-fifth of the planned training.

This is simply not something that ordinary people can accomplish. The physical fatigue is the most torturous.

Seeing that those well-known fighters couldn't complete it, some people questioned the authenticity of this training plan.
What everyone doesn't know is that when Bai Zhen was doing these strength training exercises, he also used 50% of the weight.

At that time, Emrido asked Huoya, Puxian and others about the plan, which required Bai Zhen to carry 50% of the weight.

This weight is equivalent to suppressing Bai Zhen's original physical attack attribute of about 203 points to about 100 points.

And Bai Zhen completed this training plan that others could not imagine with a physical attack value of 100 points.

Of course, he also relied on various dishes to restore his physical strength to barely complete this plan.

After Bai Zhen finished the exclusive interview, there were more and more reports about Bai Zhen on the Internet. In the next one or two weeks, the Internet was full of topics about Bai Zhen.

This is also what happened later.

After completing the performance with Qishu that day, Bai Zhen went to fulfill his agreement with Xiaodian and helped Xiaodian shoot a video about Taijinghua and Xingjing.

After the filming was completed, Bai Zhen was paid a small amount of money for helping Yanhuo Village write programs and create the APP.

Outside the smaller studio, after Bai Zhen finished filming, Roy and Rico, who were outside, poked their heads in to look inside.

Tailebagos ran to Bai Zhen's feet, barking.

Bai Zhen held Tailebagos in his arms and used his stone tablet power to charge Tailebagos.

Looking at Riko and Roy, Bai Zhen greeted them, "Riko, Roy, long time no see."

In front of Riko, Roy and others, Bai Zhen didn't need to wear protective gear, so he disarmed himself.

Under the protective gear, Bai Zhen was wearing a tight, sweat-absorbent fitness suit and a mask on his face.

The main reason for wearing a mask is that Bai Zhen is worried that his protective gear will be destroyed and his true face will be revealed during a Pokémon battle, so he wears another mask to protect his secret.

Li Ke looked at Bai Zhen's not-so-strong figure, and she was a little curious and amazed: "Mr. Bai Zhen doesn't look like a strong person, I didn't expect him to be so strong."

Roy congratulated Bai Zhen and said, "We watched your gym battle together. Mr. Bai Zhen, you are really amazing!"

Riko also congratulated them, "It was a very exciting battle. I feel like even the regional tournament wouldn't have had such an exciting battle."

"Thank you." Bai Zhen thanked the two for their congratulations and asked with concern, "How have you been doing recently? Have you gained anything?"

Riko and Roy shared their own growth over the past month.

Although they felt that they were growing quite fast, it was still far behind Bai Zhen's growth rate.

After talking about the recent situation, Riko also diligently helped Freed ask if he could visit Bai Zhen.

After hearing the reason, Bai Zhen also expressed his willingness to meet him, but as to why the Red Lotus Armor Riders used water-based moves, Bai Zhen just said that it was an exclusive secret.

Riko nodded in understanding.

She thought to herself, "This kind of thing is really a secret. Since Mr. Bai Zhen doesn't want to talk about it, it means it's really inconvenient to talk about it. I'd better talk to Fried later."

After talking about Freed, Rico started talking about other things.

"Mr. Bai Zhen, regarding the purchase from your farm that we mentioned last time."

"You're talking about this matter. My farm is on the island. You can come directly to me to purchase when you have time. Are you planning to go on a long voyage?"

Bai Zhen told Li Ke last time that as long as they wanted to sail far away and wanted to purchase some high-quality vegetables and fruits, they could go to his Richen Farm to purchase them on site.

Riko nodded and said, "The Heroic Shallot is almost repaired. We are going to go to the Hoenn region to continue looking for clues about the Six Heroes."

"The Hoenn region." Bai Zhen had not forgotten that he was going to the Hoenn region to send the gods to the volcano. Bai Zhen asked Riko, "When do you plan to set sail?"

"We plan to set off on the 23rd and arrive in the Hoenn region around the 28th."

Bai Zhen didn't expect the timing to be so coincidental. He took the initiative to ask, "I'm also planning to go to the Hoenn region in a while. I wonder if it would be convenient for you to take me with you?"

Roy got excited when he heard this: "Mr. Bai Zhen, do you really want to go with us?"

"If it's convenient, I will pay for the boat fare. I can also give you some agricultural or livestock products from the farm, such as a sufficient amount of Moo Moo fresh milk produced by Richen Ranch."

Bai Zhen is still very interested in Taile Bagos.

It would be good news for him if he could obtain star crystal fragments from Tailebagos within a few days.

Some time ago, Bai Zhen experimented with his own star crystallization.

As for other Taijing attributes, as long as Bai Zhen releases them, there is a chance that he can obtain corresponding Taijing fragments, but the only thing is that Bai Zhen has no way to produce Star Crystals no matter what.

It seems that star crystals can only be obtained from Tailebagos.

When Liko heard that Bai Zhen was willing to give them Moo Moo fresh milk, she wanted to nod and agree.

There are also vacant beds on the Brave Shallot, so it won't be a problem to bring Bai Zhen along.

But she was not the captain after all, so she couldn't agree to it immediately.

Li Ke said: "I'll ask the captain for you. By the way, I wonder which identity you should use, Mr. Bai Zhen?"

“This is fine.”

The members of the Ascending Volt Attack Team have been vetted by the police and are trustworthy.

Moreover, Bai Zhen hid his identity just because he didn't want to cause trouble, and his identity was not something that absolutely could not be known to others.

Riko took out her phone and sent a message to the Ascended Volt Attack Team's internal group chat.

When he heard that it was Bai Zhen, who was currently in the limelight, he wanted to go along.

After asking Captain Pikachu, Freed immediately agreed.

Bai Zhen also successfully confirmed that he would set off for the Hoenn region with Riko and others.
