Chapter 70 Brother, I'm here to help
"Next one~Okay! Next one~Okay! Next one~Okay!"

Qin Zhen was wearing an apron and standing next to a big iron bucket with an iron spoon in his hand. In front of him was a long line of little sea lions. The little sea lions had iron rice trays on their heads, waiting quietly for their meals.

This was Qin Zhen's second day in Qizhou City. As the price of borrowing the venue, he needed to temporarily join the Qizhou Breeding Bureau and be responsible for taking care of the group of sea lions in front of him.

The meals that the Breeding Bureau prepares for the sea lions are a bit like those in a high school cafeteria. They are nutritious and taste good, but they can hardly be called delicious. Qin Zhen asked Grandpa Nie the reason out of curiosity, and the answer he got was, "The trainers' family backgrounds are different, and we can't let the three starter Pokémons create a rift with the trainers because of food issues."

After putting a spoonful of stewed fish with tofu into the sea lion's plate, Qin Zhen raised his head and looked towards the corner of the beach.

Compared to Growlithe, Serpentis is much smarter. One day of intensive training has allowed her to fully master the release of the green grass field and enter the second stage of tutoring.

At this time, Venusaur was walking in the grass created by Serpentine. Dark green vines rose from the grass from time to time. They entwined with each other and climbed up Venusaur's front feet, trying to trip it to the ground. However, the vines created by Serpentine could not hinder Venusaur at all. The giant frog just raised its foot, and the vines could not withstand the force and broke apart, and the sky was full of flying leaves.

However, Venusaur was already very satisfied with this level. While pointing at Serpentar with "da da da da", it looked up at Charizard in the sky and let out a low laugh, obviously mocking its old friend's teaching level. Charizard was angered by its companion's laughter, and it threw fireballs down in succession. The roar of the flames exploding was endless. On the beach, Gryphon fled hard with flames burning on its body.

Nie Ping was standing next to Qin Zhen, also dressed like a canteen chef. Seeing Qin Zhen staring in the direction of Teng Teng Snake with a gaze as deep as the sea, he couldn't help but feel nervous. He quickly moved over and gently poked Qin Zhen on the back.

"What are you looking at? You're staring at it so intently."

The old king's mentality now is a bit like that of a parent of an adolescent child. He is very worried that Qin Zhen will go astray under the guidance of some bastards, and the possibility of "Riding Evolution" being passed on will be wiped out. But the old man doesn't dare to say anything specific, for fear that the child will become more rebellious because he is tired of preaching.

Fortunately, Qin Zhen did not say anything shocking. He just looked quietly at the feet of Serpenti and Venusaur.

"I'm looking at the green grass field." Qin Zhen said, "No matter how many times I see it, I can't help but feel it's magical. Green grass grows out of thin air on the beach. The power of the elves is incredible."

"Is that amazing?" Nie Ping smiled. "The breeding base of the three major families of Venusaur is located north of Chang'an City. Forty years ago, that place was called the Maowusu Desert. But with the arrival of the Alliance's desert control workers and Venusaur members, it's now covered in green grass and has become an oasis in the desert."

"Chang'an City..." Qin Zhen thought for a while, then said, "There doesn't seem to be a gym there?"

"This world isn't all about Pokémon Duels. Besides, a gym's most important function is to monitor disasters and suppress wild Pokémon that could harm people. Chang'an, as the ancient capital of 13 dynasties, was carefully selected by our ancestors. It doesn't have to worry about that. So why would we build a gym there?" Nie Ping shook his head helplessly. "You trainers, all you think about is fighting."

"Grandpa, you are the king, and you are also one of us." Qin Zhen reminded.

If a Pokémon wants to become stronger, it must fight against an equally powerful opponent and win. This means that every powerful trainer must have experienced a huge amount of battles like raising a Pokémon. It is almost foreseeable that professional trainers must all be battle maniacs, not to mention the kings.

"No, we are actually different. I became the king because..."

Nie Ping scratched the back of his head, and for some reason he suddenly stopped talking. At this moment, a sea lion happened to crawl over with a rice plate on its head. Although the old king was distracted, the hand holding the iron spoon naturally reached in, scooped, and shook it, and a portion of small fish stewed with tofu, with just the right amount of less fish and more tofu, rose from the iron bucket.

"Wait a minute, old man, she is my guest."

Qin Zhen raised his hand to stop the old king. He bent down, touched the head of the ball sea lion, and looked into the other's purple eyes.

"Why are you here at this hour? The food is cold."

"It doesn't matter if I come early or late." The answer from the sea lion echoed in Qin Zhen's mind. "Because they won't let me eat before them."

"So that's how it is." Qin Zhen scratched his head, took out a small insulated box from behind him, placed it in front of the sea lion and opened it. Inside was a bowl full of small fish stewed with tofu and stir-fried bok choy, as well as a big pumpkin bun. Its bright yellow appearance made people happy.

"Since you haven't come yet, I packed your portion in advance." Qin Zhen said, "Eat quickly. Don't worry, it's all hot. I borrowed the insulated box from the director specially."

Qiuqiu Sea Lion didn't say anything. She looked at the food in the insulated box silently. She was silent for a moment and finally raised her head.

"By the way, I've thought of a way to repay you."

………………

"Da Na! Da Na!"

The training came to a temporary end, and Snake let out a long sigh. She nodded slightly to Venusaur and dragged her tired body towards Qin Zhen.

At this moment, the little snake suddenly caught a glimpse of a rapidly approaching blue light out of the corner of its eye.

It was a drop of water from the bitch sea lion that could only communicate with its trainer.

The vine snake swung its whip forward and leaped to avoid the drop of water. She turned in mid-air and landed, staring at the ball sea lion. The two whips were raised at the same time, and the green grass field spread with a strong hostility.

In fact, Snake knew that water drop, the water-type "Life Drop", a friendly healing move. She was just taking advantage of the situation and wanted to take the opportunity to beat up Skelton. The little snake extremely hated those Pokémon that had designs on her trainer, and this bitch Skelton was a huge problem. Although she couldn't say why, the threat she posed to her was greater than that of the stupid lizard and the stupid dog combined.

Facing the attacking vine snake, the sea lion simply tilted its head slightly, signaling the snake to look to the right.

"Don't worry, Snake, the Sea Lion isn't hostile. That's its 'life drop'. Growlithe has already done the experiment for you."

At this time, Qin Zhen's voice sounded in his heart. Teng Teng Snake's eyes sank slightly. Although he was unwilling, he still obediently put the whip back.

She turned her head to look in the direction of the trainer. Growlithe was jumping around Qin Zhen. When it saw Snake looking at her, it even barked at her triumphantly, then turned around and wagged its tail at Qin Zhen, trying hard to take credit.

——Tsk, a stupid dog that let a wolf into the house.

The vine snake narrowed its eyes slightly, and a vine quietly emerged from the sand. The "grass knot" was activated, tripping the Growlithe.

At this time, the second drop of life water flew over. The vine snake did not hide. The warm water element energy cleansed its body, just like a basin of cold water falling from the sky in the hot summer. Fatigue, pain, sleepiness... all the burdens were washed away by the cold water, and it felt refreshed instantly.

Vine Snake let out a long sigh. She raised her head and looked at the Ball Sea Lion. Their blue eyes and purple eyes met again. After recovering, Vine Snake's eyes became even colder and more stern. Ordinary people would be frightened even if they just glanced at them. The Ball Sea Lion also seemed to be afraid of Vine Snake's gaze. She and Vine Snake looked at each other for three seconds, and finally turned around and left silently.

Looking at the back of the Qiuqiu sea lion, Tengteng Snake hummed softly, and just as she turned around, she was lightly hit on the forehead by a finger. Qin Zhen had walked behind her without her knowing.

"Fujifuji Snake, don't bully me. Kamaboko is also one of the three great families. If you must count, she is still your schoolmate."
