Spirit, I can hear the voices of all things.

Chapter 9 Taming the Unicorn

Xia Mu turned around and walked into the Rocket Team's cafeteria despite the hateful looks from others.

As soon as he entered the cafeteria, a rich aroma of food wafted into Xia Mu's nose, lingering between his nostrils. His stomach suddenly rumbled like a drum, and his stomach felt sour. He felt like he was so hungry that he could swallow a whole elephant.

It has been more than ten hours since I was kidnapped to Team Rocket. My mind has been in a tense state the whole time, so naturally I don't feel hungry.

Now that I have relaxed, in addition to hunger, I also feel tired and my calves are aching slightly.

Looking around, there were crispy fried bread slices, sizzling bacon, French mushroom soup with a rich creamy aroma, etc. But what attracted Xia Mu the most was the neatly arranged moo milk.

These mooing milks emit a jade-like glow, just like a beautiful woman with a plump and jade-like buttocks.

"Moo."

There was a vibration on the ground, and three energetic big milk tanks came towards them. They were wearing white uniforms and walked towards the Moo Moo Milk area.

Three yawning, dazed milk cans punched out their shift cards while mooing to their companions to hand over the shift.

After counting the amount of Moo Moo Milk left and finding it was not much, the big milk tank started working, and soon, bottles of freshly squeezed Moo Moo Milk were placed on the tray.

A green dialog box floated above the head of one of the big milk cans.

[Big Milk Can: Haha, I slept very late last night. Luckily I ate the energy cube specially made by Hu Hu this morning. I felt full of energy instantly. The Moo Moo milk I produce today will be particularly nutritious. I wonder if humans can detect it.]

While the big milk can was being filled, Xia Mu saw a green dialog box floating in the fresh mooing milk.

[Moo Moo Milk: Milk, milk, fresh Moo Moo Milk, which contains physical energy blocks that are very good for the body. After taking it, you can maintain sufficient physical strength. 】

Since it was almost nine o'clock in the morning, there were not many people in the cafeteria and no one paid attention to the Moo Moo milk area. The other two large milk cans were doing some cleaning work, which created an opportunity for Xia Mu.

The big milk jug had just put the mooing milk in place when Xia Mu turned around and, with his quick eyes and hands, waved his hand to put the mooing milk in the big milk jug into his bracelet, then quickly hid aside.

Although there is no limit on the amount of Moo Moo Milk, if you take too much, it will arouse the suspicion of Milkman, especially since you have Meowth and the inexplicable 50,000 points on you.

If he were caught, Xia Mu felt that the lightest punishment he could receive would be to be filled with cement and thrown into the sea.

Looking at the empty tray, Big Milk Can's smile faded. He rubbed his eyes, scratched his hair with his hooves, and a big question mark appeared on his head.

[Big Milk Tank: Oh my god, what the hell, where did the Moo Moo Milk I just produced go? ]

The big head looked around, but there was no one here.

Milk Tank was a little dazed. Was he dazzled just now?

The diligent big milk can didn't think much about it and quickly filled the second batch of mooing milk. However, when it turned around, the mooing milk disappeared again, and this time there was a human being next to the tray.

Xia Mu had just put the Moo Moo Milk into his bracelet, but he didn't expect the big milk can to turn around so quickly. He didn't have time to avoid it and quickly showed a bright smile: "The Moo Moo Milk is out of stock, can you please refill it?"

[Milky Can: This cafeteria must be haunted. I heard that it was a mass grave before. Could it be that the ghost-type Pokémon are causing trouble? Otherwise, how could Moo Moo Milk disappear out of thin air?]

Big Milk Can shuddered suddenly. It felt like something was wrong with its whole body, and its hands and feet were trembling slightly.

Its friends looked at the wilted milk can in confusion. This lively and cute friend seemed to be in trouble.

[Big Milk Tank: Hey guys, listen to me, there seems to be a ghost here. No, I can’t say that, or I’ll seem like a coward.]

[Big Milk Tank: I will keep an eye on it. If it disappears again, I will tell my supervisor. If it doesn't disappear, forget it.]

The big milk jug was filling up with Moo Moo milk while stealing glances at the tray.

After knowing what the big milk tank was thinking, Xia Mu didn't dare to continue taking the Moo Moo Milk. It happened that only one bottle of the third batch of Moo Moo Milk showed a green dialog box, and the others were white. It seemed that the effect of the energy block had weakened.

Ordinary moo-moo milk, although rich in nutrients, has no special use other than drinking.

After the third batch of Moo Moo Milk was put on the shelf, Xia Mu took a bottle of Moo Moo Milk under the suspicious gaze of the big milk can: "Fortunately, I finally got the Moo Moo Milk. I must have been dazzled just now. How come the entire tray of Moo Moo Milk disappeared? I also saw a ghost hand. It seems that I was confused in my sleep."

After hearing what Xia Mu said, a gleam of light appeared in Miltank's eyes. The case was solved. It turned out that the ghost-type Pokémon was the one who did it.

[Milky Can: It seems that the ghost-type Pokémon has eaten and drunk enough and left. I can work with peace of mind now.]

If Big Milk Can had a kindergarten diploma, he would not be so easily deceived by Xia Mu. The main reason was that the people who came to eat on weekdays had no storage equipment. The lower-level employees did not like Moo Moo Milk, and the senior employees looked down on it. This created an opportunity for Xia Mu.

There were twelve bottles of Moo Moo Milk on a tray. Xia Mu took away twenty-four bottles of Moo Moo Milk, which would last for a while. When necessary, he could also use Moo Moo Milk as a physical strength potion.

The big milk tank was busy all day and found that the amount of mooing milk at the back had not decreased, so he felt relieved and quickly put the matter behind him.

The Moo Moo milk marked with a green dialog box is fragrant and mellow, with a hint of grass in it. It tastes much better than the high-end milk on Earth.

After drinking Moo Moo milk, a warm current flows through the whole body, and the fatigue of the day is instantly dispelled.

After eating and drinking, Xia Mu went to the front desk and booked a basement room.

Just now, Xia Mu learned from the dialog box of the Rocket Team members who were eating in the cafeteria that there is a basement under the Rocket Team’s dormitory building.

It was originally a place to store sundries. Later, due to the rapid expansion of the Rockets team, the dormitory building could no longer accommodate the people, so the basement was vacated and rented out.

The lady who received Xia Mu was not so friendly. After all, the basement was where the Rocket Team members of low status lived.

I guess there isn't even a bed, but the advantage is that it's cheap, only 10 points a night, so Team Rocket members who don't have many points will just rent a basement room to stay for a night.

The young lady threw a key directly to me: "1008, there is no elevator directly to the basement, please find the signs by yourself and take your own responsibility for safety."

"Tsk tsk, even the customer service is being sloppy."

Xia Mu put the key in his pocket and walked leisurely towards the stairs.

His purpose was very simple, which was to tame the unicorn beetle in the basement, and he made many preparations for this.

The corridor leading to the basement was full of sewage and smelled terrible. Xia Mu even saw orb-weaving spiders weaving webs in the corner.

There were a few shriveled skins hanging on the spider web. I wondered which unlucky creatures they were.

The iron gate of the passage was rusty and even stained with dried blood.

Xia Mu covered his nose with his sleeve, pushed open the iron door and walked straight inside.

It was quiet inside. There was a pile of clothes drying in the aisle. Because there was no sunlight in the basement, the clothes could never dry and gave off a stench like salted fish.

There were some scattered wine bottles in the corridor, and the light was dim. Xia Mu finally found Room 1008, but after inserting the key, it simply wouldn't open. It was estimated that the entire lock core was rusted.

Just when Xia Mu was at a loss, a dark shadow attacked from behind. After hearing the sound, Xia Mu dodged to the side.

There was a loud thud, and the black shadow crashed into the iron gate and fainted instantly.

Xia Mu lowered his head and took a closer look. It turned out that the black shadow was a two-meter-long arbok snake whose tail could make the sound of a stream.

It's unknown which Team Rocket member who lives in the basement raised this Arbok Pokémon.

However, this elf had a flushed face and reeked of alcohol, and was obviously drunk.

There was a 'horn' visible on the head of the Arbok, and the iron gate was deeply dented.

If Arbok wasn't drunk, that attack would have killed him.

Looking at Arbok who was drunk and fainted on the ground, Xia Mu fell into silence.

I've seen people waiting for rabbits by the tree, but I've never seen people waiting for snakes by the tree. The key is that the snake helped open the door.

After Arbok's violent impact, the iron door was easily knocked open.

Arbok grimaced in pain and struggled for a while, but because he was drunk, he fell into a deep sleep.

[Arbok: Wine, wine, I can still drink more, hiss, but my head hurts a little. ]

"How can it not hurt to have such a big bump on your head?"

Xia Mu muttered a few words, stepped over Arbok, pushed open the iron door and walked in.

It was dim inside. Xia Mu groped for the power switch and pressed it for a long time before the lights in the room came on.

Only then did Xia Mu look around the entire basement. The room was not big, about 30 square meters, and it was empty without even any furniture. The air was very turbid and dusty, and there were a few broken wooden boards piled in the corners.

After letting the air in for a while, Xia Mu closed the iron door and propped it up with a wooden board to prevent Arbok from suddenly breaking in.

Although this snake is non-venomous, it is a top predator in the forest. Almost no human or elf targeted by it will survive. It is more dangerous than the Beedrill and the Ursarga.

[Arbok is really a non-venomous snake. You can find information about it by looking up the Pokémon Encyclopedia. This guy is really a non-venomous snake, even though it is a poisonous Pokémon.]

Xia Mu took out the prepared equipment from his bracelet, put on wire gloves, held a high-powered flashlight in his left hand, and a stun gun in his right hand.

The steel wire gloves covered the entire arm, which could ensure Xia Mu's safety, but the side effects were also obvious. After wearing them for a while, Xia Mu suddenly felt sore in his arms.

After making preparations, Xia Mu took out the Poké Ball containing the Horned Beetle.

"Come out, unicorn."

The unicorn suddenly jumped out of the Poké Ball.

It looked at Xia Mu with a vicious gaze, and venom oozed from its cold sharp horns.

Its body is covered with barbs, and even its natural enemy, the bird-type elves, dare not approach it.

[Unicorn Beetle: Damn humans, you finally let me out. 】

[Unicorn Beetle: I will poison this human to death with my venom and then escape. Humans cannot restrain my unruly heart.]

This unicorn beetle is obviously a thorn.

It arched its body and its barbs stood up.

The unicorn beetle suddenly sprayed out several thin and long poisonous needles from its mouth.

The alert Xia Mu raised his arm with difficulty, and the poison needle hit the steel wire glove hard, even producing some sparks.

Xia Mu took a few steps back, and the poison needle was instantly ejected and stuck in the wall.

The wall suddenly turned black and was corroded by the venom.

Seeing that its attack missed, the unicorn beetle arched its back and was about to attack when Xia Mu turned on the high-powered flashlight.

【Powerful flashlight: illuminate your beauty! 】

[Unicorn Beetle: Ahhhh, my eyes are about to be blinded, damn humans. ]

The strong light made the unicorn worm look like a headless fly, and it slammed into the wall.

There was a loud thud, and a conspicuous crack appeared on the wall.

[Basement wall: Walls hang on walls, pots come from the sky. ]

At this time, Xia Mu discovered that a green dialog box suddenly appeared on the wall, and it seemed that there was something hidden in the wall.

The unicorn worm shook its head. It was seeing stars after being hit just now.

Xia Mu observed that the unicorn beetle emitted a faint white light at the moment of impact.

The white light cushioned most of the impact force for the unicorn worm. Otherwise, with just that impact, the unicorn worm would probably have grown "horns" on its head like the Arbok snake lying dead outside the door.

Taking advantage of this opportunity, Xia Mu quickly took off his heavy steel gloves and threw them in the direction of the unicorn worm, then pressed the switch of the electric shock gun.

The crackling sound was accompanied by beams of bright electric light. The electric arcs leaped in the small room, and Xia Mu suddenly felt his hands slightly numb.

[Xia Mu: Damn it, this stun gun has a serious leakage!!!]

boom.

The unicorn worm was immediately hit by the heavy steel gloves, causing its head to bleed and its eyes to be full of stars.

[Unicorn Beetle: Damn humans, damn humans, ahhhh. 】

Taking advantage of this opportunity, Xia Mu used both hands and feet stiffly to thrust the electric shock gun into the abdomen of the hornworm.

A smell of burnt protein came out directly.
