Elf: Re-employment of retired champion of Padiya

Chapter 689 Roentgen Bridge Cat
"Flower of Eternity"

To be honest, Zygarde's Core had never thought that he would see this special flower here again, a flower that combines the brilliance of life and carries the heavy cause and effect.

Even though it had left the Kalos region three thousand years ago, it had heard about some of the things that happened there.

It also saw the Eternal Flower, which bloomed at the center of the energy released by the terrifying weapon, through its Zygarde Cells.

That's why the Zygarde Core was curious about where Luo Mu and Flower Healer Huanhuan got the Eternal Flower from.

It remembered that after that, the Eternal Flower was eliminated by the two descendants together. Apart from that special individual, there should be no more Eternal Flower in the world.

Noticing Luo Mu's arrival, the Zygarde Core jumped onto his shoulder in a few steps, and a shrill voice sounded in his mind through telepathy.

"How did you get this flower?"

Luo Mu turned his head and looked into the single eye of the Zygarde Core. He saw the curiosity in its eyes. At the same time, he was not surprised that the other party knew the information about the Eternal Flower.

Rather, it would be strange if Zygarde's core was not known.

After thinking for a while and organizing his words, Luo Mu simply recounted his experience of encountering the Eternal Flower in the center of Liuli City in the Hoenn region.

The Zygarde Core listened in silence, and after thinking for a long time, he raised his head and asked, "Hoenn, are you talking about the land surrounded by the ocean where the Creator of the Sea lives?"

"Yes." Luo Mu nodded slightly.

"I see. That makes sense then."

As if it remembered something, the expression of the Zygarde Core suddenly became relaxed, and the entire worm returned to its usual lazy appearance.

It jumped off Luo Mu's shoulder and lay down in the flower field to enjoy the spring sunbath, no longer paying any attention to people.

Because of the good sound insulation of the glass greenhouse and the suitable natural light brought by the transparent glass, it is often used as a place for Pokémon on the farm to take a nap.

The same is true for the Zygarde Core.

Ever since it figured out the layout of this place, every sunny afternoon, if it cannot be found anywhere else on the farm, it will most likely stay here basking in the sun for photosynthesis, and then split out several Zygarde cells like a large one and release them to the outside world.

Really, it can lie flatter than Moltres.

A trace of speechlessness appeared on his face, and Luo Mu gave up the idea of ​​asking it if it knew any inside information. Instead, he went to find Hualiao Huanhuan in a Buddhist manner.

"As agreed, let's transplant some Gracitia flowers and then plant the Eternal Flower."

"Ring!"

Hualiao Huanhuan shouted happily, her little eyes filled with excitement.

For this species, flower fields are of vital importance, and can even be said to be a necessity in their lives.

The flower fields in the glass greenhouse were built later, but before that, there were also flower fields on the farm outside, and the family also poured a lot of affection into those flower fields.

But the winter in the Padiya region is different from the winter in the Alola region. The cold wave and blizzard raged for more than a month.

When the ice and snow melted in spring, Hua Liao Huanhuan found that some of the cold-sensitive plants in the flower fields had already frozen to death.

This also made it sad for a long time.

Fortunately, Luo Mu had the foresight to build a glass greenhouse in advance to preserve most of the flower seeds. Even in that winter that could freeze many plants to death, he was able to cultivate the Gracitia flowers to bloom.

Now, Flower Therapy Huanhuan can't wait to transplant some of the flowers and replant them outside.

This time it will not be as careless as last winter and will take good measures to keep the flower fields outside warm.

When it was gradually getting dark, Luo Mu finally finished his work.

However, looking at the large field of blooming Gracitia flowers in front of him, Luo Mu's face still showed a happy smile like an old farmer with a good harvest.

——I don’t know if these should be the first batch of blooming Gracitia flowers, can attract the flying green piglet.

Simultaneously.

Although the purpose of the Eternal Flower planted in the glass greenhouse is unclear, Flower Therapy Huanhuan cannot transform into Flower Therapy Huanhuan Eternal Flower through the Eternal Flower.

But since I have brought it back, I might as well plant it in the glass greenhouse for the time being.

Seeing it blooming actively under the big trees in Liuli City, it doesn't seem like it will have any problems with the local climate.

While transplanting Gracitia flowers, Luo Mu also met the queen bee whom he hadn't seen for a long time.

Compared to when she was bullied as a child, the queen bee is now becoming more and more powerful, probably because she has more soldiers under her command.

The Pokémon such as Honeydragon and Tropico that entered the farm at the same time looked like children who never grew up.

The queen bee warmly invited Luo Mu to taste the first honey of spring that she and her worker bees had brewed in the hive.

The unique sweet smell and taste are comparable to the honey that Luo Mu once exchanged with the queen bees in the wild.

However, it probably hasn't reached the level of the honey in the mysterious Amber City in the Sinnoh region in the anime plot.

Luo Mu considered that if he had the chance in the future, he would definitely take the Queen Bee to the Amber City to learn how to make the special honey there.

The next morning, the third day of February.

Early in the morning, Luo Mu was awakened by the feeling of a wet tongue licking his cheek.

He thought it would be Sol or Umbreon, or even a prank by Arcanine.

But when he opened his eyes, what he saw was the cool and furry face of the Roentgen cat.

"?"

A question mark popped up in Luo Mu's head. He couldn't remember how long it had been since he was woken up by the Roentgen cat like this.

"Meow."

The Roentgen cat wagged its tail and raised its front paws, placing its thick paw pads on the quilt covering Luo Mu.

Luo Mu understood what the Roentgen cat wanted to express at a glance.

——Get up quickly.

Normally, a Roentgen cat wouldn't wake itself up like this.

Although it looks a bit domineering and cold, it actually has a very stable personality and is very reliable in everything it does.

Because he knew the character of the Roentgen cat clearly, Luo Mu's first reaction was not why the Roentgen cat woke him up, but whether there was something happening on the farm that required the Roentgen cat to wake him up in advance.

"Let me get dressed and wash up."

Seeing the calm look of the Roentgen cat, Luo Mu thought the matter was not urgent, so he did not run out in just his pajamas.

I changed clothes, washed up, and combed my hair.

After quickly completing this process, Luo Mu went out under the guidance of Roentgen Cat. "Is this the orchard?"

After identifying the direction, Luo Mu blinked and had a premonition in his heart.

The one who made the Roentgen cat specially bring himself to the orchard, so, could it be that
Luo Mu did not allow his brain to continue guessing. After all, the orchard was right in front of him. He would know the answer once he went in.

Think of this.

He took quick steps and strode into the orchard with the Roentgen cat.

Probably because it was so early in the morning.

At this time, the neat rows of fruit trees in the orchard have morning dewdrops hanging on the lush green leaves, which look delicate and full of vitality.

If you occasionally look up at the surrounding tree branches, you may catch a glimpse of small "apples" bouncing around on them.

Those were the fruit-munching bugs that Luo Mu brought back to the farm from the depths of the bamboo forest.

It is their "ripening" characteristics that have made this orchard the most famous apple in Beishang Township.

Roentgen Cat took Luo Mu through rows of fruit trees and finally arrived at a somewhat special place.

The soil here has been replaced by Luo Mu with the "black soil" pulled from the ruins of Tapu Moo's Harvest, and the plants grown using this important black soil are the three fruit trees named the gold and silver series that Luo Mu obtained on the Quartz Plateau.

Not far from these three fruit trees, there are also fields where five secret seasonings are grown.

It can be said that this is also the most strictly guarded place in Luo Mu’s farm.

Roentgen Cat, Arcanine, Trippin, and Hound often patrol here, and the Sky Guard's Steeljaws and Bluejays will also pay special attention to this area.

Let’s not talk about the secret seasoning that has not yet been harvested for the second time, and turn our attention back to the present.

Looking at the three fruit trees that had already grown to adulthood, Luo Mu finally understood why the Roentgen cat woke him up.

I saw a large number of fruits hanging on the branches in the lush crown of the tree.

It’s just that most of them are still in an immature, but already formed state.

It can be seen that the types of tree fruits are cranberry, banana fruit and pear fruit.

Although these fruits are not common, they are far from being particularly rare. As gifts from the Quartz Plateau, these three fruit trees are certainly unique.

——Because they are extremely rare, gold and silver series fruit trees.

According to research conducted by the Kanto Alliance Headquarters on the Quartz Plateau, this special tree species, which is one in a million, has a chance of producing special fruits that are different from ordinary ones, such as cranberries, banana fruits, and pear fruits during the fruiting period.

This is the fruit of the tree known as the gold/silver series.

But it is worth noting that although it is called the gold/silver series of berries, the color of the berries is not gold or silver.

Luo Mu's eyes fell on the phoenix tree in the center. His good eyesight allowed him to spot a few fruits of slightly different colors among the small yellow phoenix fruits.

There are lavender phoenix apples and orange-red phoenix apples.

Just like Pokémon of different colors, their presence is particularly conspicuous.

If Luo Mu remembered correctly, the lavender phoenix fruit belonged to the silver series, and the orange-red phoenix fruit belonged to the gold series.

The effectiveness of the gold series is many times stronger than that of the silver series.

Luo Mu remembered that according to the researcher's notes, the silver/gold phoenix fruit seemed to be able to improve the luck of the eater in some way?
On the other side, the silver/gold banana fruit soothes the mood, while the silver/gold cranberry fruit increases the eater's "favorability" towards the feeder.

If you add the three together, according to the prompt system.

——That is, there is a chance to cultivate a special partner Pokémon!

At first, Luo Mu thought that if the Eevee sisters didn't want to evolve, he would wait until the fruits were ripe and try to train them into partner Eevee.

But now, a bold idea emerged in Luo Mu's mind.

As we all know, partner Pokémon will not change the appearance and characteristics of the Pokémon except for the changes in its portrait.

Luo Mu turned to look at the Roentgen cat who was just reporting the news to him.

If that's the case, can we use these fruits to train Roentgen cats into "Partner Roentgen cats"?

At the current situation where it is unclear whether the Roentgen cat can achieve a super evolution form, it is better to hope that the GF will be kind enough in the future and give the Roentgen cat another evolution, and evolve it into a Roentgen Bridge Cat.

It seems that this is the path that lies before us and can allow the Roentgen cat to take a further step.

If Roentgen Cat can really become stronger through this, it might be able to increase its chances of winning when fulfilling its agreement with Rayquaza in the future.

Luo Mu admitted that this idea might be a bit bold, and it might waste the gold and silver series fruits that are difficult to grow and have limited quantities.

But compared to trying to capture another Eevee or Pikachu, pursuing that kind of safety is more desirable.

Luo Mu is more inclined to take a gamble.

——Just because Roentgen is his first Pokémon and the most important partner who has supported him all the way to this point.

For the sake of the Roentgen cat, Luo Mu was willing to take this risk, which was nothing but possible waste.

After a brief silence.

Luo Mu took a deep breath and said to the Roentgen cat beside him: "Call Zhihuixing and the others over. During this period of time, the security force of the orchard needs to be increased."

Even when the secret seasoning matures, it will attract the attacks of many wild Pokémon.

If the fruits of the gold and silver series trees are ripe, or even before they are ripe, Luo Mu cannot guarantee that no wild Pokémon will set their sights on this place.

The Roentgen cat nodded slightly, turned around and immediately returned home to call Zhihuixing and Raphanus.

After all, it only told Luo Mu about its patrol discoveries at the first opportunity, and had no time to notify other Pokémon.

While the Roentgen Cat is calling Pokémon.

Luo Mu tilted his head back and stood under the fruit tree, counting the fruits one by one with the most serious attitude he had ever had.

After a moment, the conclusion was reached.

——Just like the introduction on the Quartz Plateau, the proportion of gold and silver series fruit produced is really shockingly low.

Among the three or four hundred fruits hanging on a whole fruit tree, there are only a dozen fruits of different colors.

This probability is really too low.
No, Luo Mu remembered the data given by the Quartz Plateau that if a gold and silver series fruit tree could produce four or five fruits of different colors at one time, it would already be a good harvest.

Looking at it this way, it seems that the effect of changing the soil to black soil and letting Huatao Huanhuan regularly use the composite green grassland to nourish the fruit trees is quite good.
