Monster Hunter: Farm Story Begins with Pokémon

Chapter 397 Master Jin Xiangyu (4k, supplemented on 5.26th day)
In the gym battle with Haidai, there was no surprise. Bai Zhen defeated the opponent very easily and smoothly and passed the gym battle smoothly.

The levels of the partners have all been improved, and they defeated the three partners of Haidai by about ten levels. The level of the Hell Wolf Dragon was improved from level 62 to level 66, the level of the Steel Beast was improved to level 64, the level of the Heavy Steel Horse was improved to level 65, and the level of the Red Lotus Armored Cavalry reached level 69.

Dragonite and Moltres did not participate in the battle and their levels remain unchanged.

Everyone gained a lot from a gym battle.

And these are actually not the point.

Inside the gym, Ye Ci personally handed a disc to Bai Zhen: "This is the [Original Power] learning machine you requested before."

He took the disc from Ye Ci's hand and couldn't hide the joy on his face.

Finally got this learning machine!
Ye Ci asked Bai Zhen curiously: "It's really rare. I didn't expect you to specifically specify the [Original Power] learning machine. Is this learning machine very important to you?"

Bai Zhen answered honestly: "It is very important! If things are really as I think, it should greatly improve the strength of my partners."

Hearing Bai Zhen's words, Xin Li sighed: "You are really amazing~ You are already that strong, can you still improve significantly?"

"I'm not 100% sure about the specific situation right now, I can only say that the probability is relatively high."

The skill [Primal Power] was specially prepared by Bai Zhen for Honglong.

If everything goes well, the Boom Dragon will be able to evolve into the rare species [Big Boom Dragon].

The move Primal Force is a skill that many ancient Pokémon have mastered.

For example, the three gods of Hoenn, Rayquaza, Kyogre, and Groudon all have mastered this skill.

In addition, Tailobagos, Moltres, and the Ancient Pterosaur we encountered before all master this move.

When using primal power, the individual can create huge rocks to attack the enemy. At the same time, primal power also has a certain probability of increasing all attributes by 1 level.

It can be considered a very good skill.

This move also has another use, which is that it can help some Pokémon evolve.

For example, when a Tenebrio learns Primal Power and increases its level by 1, it can evolve into a Giant Tenebrio.

In addition to it, dragonflies can evolve into ancient giant dragonflies after learning skills, and hairy pigs can evolve into ivory pigs after learning primitive power and then increasing their levels.

The evolutions of these three Pokémon all have one characteristic, which is that with the help of [primitive power], they return to their ancient form.

Compared to most of the flying dragon species today, the Boom Dragon retains the most physiological characteristics of the Rex Dragon (the ancestor of the flying dragon species), and is therefore also regarded as the most primitive existing flying dragon (second only to the Brontosaurus and Tyrannosaurus).

The [Big Boom Dragon] is the ancestral form of Boom Dragon, with a stronger heart and metabolic capacity, as well as greater strength and destructive power.

Bai Zhen didn't know whether the original power could allow the Boom Dragon to revert to its original form and become a rare species of Big Boom Dragon, but it was definitely worth a try.

If she could successfully restore the Honglong to its original form, her strength would definitely be greatly enhanced again.

Xin Li listened to Bai Zhen's humble words, laughed and asked Bai Zhen: "You are such an incredible trainer. When do you plan to challenge the next five gyms?"

After watching the fight between Bai Zhen and Hai Dai, she felt itchy and couldn't wait to fight Bai Zhen.

"I plan to complete the remaining gyms within this month."

The remaining five gyms were not too difficult for Bai Zhen.

And if he challenges these gyms as soon as possible, his partners' levels will be improved as quickly as possible, so that he will be more confident in dealing with the approaching ancient dragon crisis.

In order to challenge those powerful enemies, it is safer for all partners to reach level 70 or above.

Xin Li: "Uh haha~ I feel like this month will be very long for me~ I look forward to you challenging the Four Heavenly Kings."

After saying goodbye to everyone, Bai Zhen spent a good day in Boping City with Huoya and Shuiyun.

11 month 27 day.

Bai Zhen, Huo Ya and others returned to the island safely.

Back at the familiar home, Huoya asked Bai Zhen: "Are you planning to go to the Land of Fire on the 30th?"

"Yes, His Excellency Sui Fengren gave me this urgent task. I plan to complete it after my injuries are almost healed."

His injuries might have taken half a month to heal.

But now that his level has been raised, his self-healing ability has also been greatly improved. Combined with the Lv.7 recovery medicine and the treatment of Chansey, his injuries will be completely healed in about 8 days.

There are about three days left.

"Really? Then be careful this time. We can't leave the farm these few days."

It is almost December now, and the weather is getting colder day by day. Many delicate plants can no longer be grown.

For example, all the honey flowers had died as early as mid-November, and many plants can only be planted again in the early spring of next year.

Although the climate in Yanhuo Village and the private island is usually pleasant and the maximum temperature rarely rises above 30 degrees, in winter, the coldest temperatures in both places can reach minus or degrees Celsius.

In Yanhuo Village, due to the influence of the Frozen Islands, the outdoor temperature in Yanhuo Village can reach as low as minus 12 degrees Celsius in mid-December. Since records began, the lowest temperature has even reached minus 10 degrees Celsius.

The weather was 30 degrees below zero, and Bai Zhen guessed that it was probably because the Ice Curse Dragon that controlled the cold air appeared in the Frozen Islands.

Of course, no matter what the situation is, winter is always troublesome for farms.

Now that it is the time of changing seasons, farms also need to prepare food for the winter.

The ranch has a lot of big milk tanks, heavy steel draft horses and maru birds.

The residents of these ranches cannot lack food in the winter no matter what.

In addition, the crops on the farm need to be replaced with cold-resistant crops, which requires time to organize.

Bai Zhen is now busy fighting monsters and has no time to take care of the farm and ranch, so the task naturally falls on the shoulders of Huo Ya and Shui Yun.

Bai Zhen comforted him: "I will let Super Rayquaza go with me this time. With him, even if the taboo comes, I can escape unscathed."

"Okay~ Don't try to be so stubborn this time."

"Do not worry."

After Huoya and Shuiyun went to work on their own, Bai Zhen also started his final sprint.

The situation in the Fire Nation is still unclear, and we also have to consider the possibility of monsters invading. The worst case scenario may be that we encounter the intrusion of ancient dragons, so we must be prepared for this.

Bai Zhen first called out Honglong and asked him to learn the original power moves.

If the learning goes smoothly, Honglong will be able to learn this move before setting off for the Fire Country.

After helping Honglong arrange his study tasks, Bai Zhen prepared to cook the meat of Yuanhulong, Bubble Fox Dragon, and Ice Fang Dragon.

He had been waiting for this dish for a few days. Bai Zhen brought out the rice that he had prepared in the basement.

These rices were harvested yesterday, and the grades have all reached level 7. They are special rices that were recently bred for superior quality.

Each of these rice grains is very round.

Obviously, all the rice has been screened. Bai Zhen handed this troublesome process over to the Felynx. More than 200 Felynx helped together, and in half a day they screened out the rice that met Bai Zhen's requirements.

Xie Mi looked at the rice that Bai Zhen brought out and asked Bai Zhen curiously: "What delicious food are you planning to make?"

Before, Xie Mi was maintaining those nectar flowers and keeping them in the nectar flow period.

But ever since the honey flowers withered and could not be planted, Shaymi suddenly became very idle.

If she were asked to plant, it would be difficult for her to farm without hands. She could help with the harvest, but the vegetables she harvested were not as much as she ate herself.

Considering that asking Xie Mi to help with the harvest would significantly reduce the family's vegetable reserves, Bai Zhen simply gave Xie Mi a vacation and let her have fun for two or three months.

Bai Zhen picked up a grain of rice and conjured up a needle-like prop. He said to Xie Mi, "I'm going to dig a hole in the middle of the rice."

"Dig a hole? What are you planning to do?"

Xie Mi didn't know why Bai Zhen wanted to waste good food.

"I want to stuff the meat of the Resentful Tiger Dragon and the Overlord Paohu Dragon into rice and make a dish called [Gold Inlaid with Jade]."

Xie Mi watched Bai Zhen quickly pierce the air with the needle. She thought Bai Zhen was joking. She took a closer look at the processed rice. After focusing her eyes carefully, she could see clearly that there was a hole of moderate size in the center of the rice.

Xie Mi was shocked: "Will this kind of rice taste better?"

"I don't know either. After all, this is my first time making this dish, but it should taste much better."

Bai Zhen's research on cooking over the past six months has allowed him to discover a truth: the longer the cooking takes and the more troublesome it is, the better the final result will be.

For example, the rejuvenating soups made with giant groupers before were a hidden gem in the ocean, and their effects were far beyond the comparison of the dishes made later.

On the other hand, kitchen utensils transformed by the universal tool have special blessings.

Anyone who has attended elementary school knows that when making soup, most of the nutrients in the food remain in the ingredients rather than flowing into the soup.

Therefore, if you want to get a lot of nourishment, it is more nutritious to eat the ingredients directly.

But the soup pot created using the universal tool has the ability to transfer all the nutrients in the ingredients into the soup.

When you use a universal tool to steam rice, all the nutrients in the water will be absorbed into the rice.

So this seemingly tedious and useless cooking process may very well result in the most perfect dish.

Xie Mi looked at the basket of rice in shock. Even if Bai Zhen had a multi-tool to help him, no matter how skilled and fast his movements were, it would still take him four or five seconds to process a grain of rice.

I don’t know when this basket of rice will be ready, and there’s also the process of stuffing it with meat.

Thinking of the astonishing workload, Xie Mi shook his head silently and prepared to leave.

But Bai Zhen grabbed Xie Mi and said, "Come and help too."

"No!" Xie Mi held onto the sofa leg tightly, not wanting to get involved in Bai Zhen's amazing work. "Xie Mi doesn't have hands to help you dig the rice!"

"You have plenty of free time anyway, so it doesn't matter if you dig slowly."

Bai Zhen did not give Xie Mi a chance to refuse his plan. He took out an ordinary embroidery needle and asked Xie Mi to follow him to dig rice.

It's such a boring task that he can't do it for long without anyone accompanying him.

"I'm very busy!"

Xie Mi still wanted to struggle, but Bai Zhen stopped him with the words that only those who work can eat.

Xie Mi gripped the embroidery needle with her claws and pierced through the rice in her hand bit by bit.

Although Xie Mi took more than ten minutes to finish one, Bai Zhen was in a good mood when he saw Xie Mi's collapsed expression!
After just one night of hard work, he successfully dug a large basket of rice.

This amount of rice is enough for Honglong and other companions to eat.

The most troublesome part comes next. After digging the rice, Bai Zhen cooks the selected meat, then tears it into strips and stuffs it into the rice.

This took him another whole day.

It was not until the evening of November 11 that Bai Zhen finally managed to get the rice.

After screening the rice, Bai Zhen kept 40% of it for making legendary dishes, and prepared the remaining 60% to be made for the cats at home.

These rice basils are put into the steamer, and the water used for steaming is naturally not ordinary water, but the legendary quality pork rib soup.

Bai Zhen did not eat the soup, which could directly increase the rarity of skills, but used it as a cooking ingredient. This shows how arrogance he is.

Thanks to the effect of the steamer, the nutrients in the pork rib soup will be forced directly into the rice.

29th at 9pm.

Huoya and Shuiyun, who had been waiting for a long time, could already smell the rich aroma that filled the room.

It took me two full days to make this vegetable.

It is time-consuming, laborious and also very troublesome. They are now very curious about what Bai Zhen's dish will look like in the end.

Even Xie Mi, who doesn't eat meat, began to be shaken by the aroma.

“I wish those vegetarian dishes could be cooked this deliciously!”

With his last shiver, Bai Zhen was fully focused, trying not to let his efforts of more than two days go to waste.

When the rice's condition reached its limit, Bai Zhen opened the lid.

The aroma bomb exploded in the room, and even when Bai Zhen opened the lid, a golden light flashed.

Bai Zhen couldn't wait to scoop out the three colors of rice. Each grain of rice was crystal clear and filled with countless nutrients.

Bai Zhen looked at this dish and there was a look of surprise in his eyes!
“This dish is a success!”

The effect of the cooking was far beyond Bai Zhen’s imagination!
