Pokémon: I picked up a reborn Eevee at the start of the game

At this moment, the vacant eyes of the Precious Steel Master were filled with the glee of venting his anger.

This is the price for disturbing my cooking!

…………

The powerful seismic energy waves beneath his feet, the dangerous rocks that kept collapsing and rolling on the ground, and the chaotic yet ferocious "Chaotic Cloak Fist Technique" of the Hidden Steel Treasure Master.

Faced with this triple attack, which was as fierce and almost suffocating as a storm, the elves responded in different ways.

The flying Gardevoir and Gardevoir naturally made full use of their agility to fly high in the air, basically eliminating the first two threats of the triple attack, and only needing to dodge the hairy punches that were wildly waving in the air.

Milotic was too large to dodge such a dense barrage of attacks, so it simply didn't dodge. Instead, it stood still and activated a Water Ring. Thanks to its thick skin and the healing properties of the Water Ring, the damage it took wasn't too high.

Zoroark immediately used Phantom Assault to escape into the void, then landed on top of the giant head of the worm.

Her body was light and agile, and the worm, in its haphazard outburst, did not notice that a spirit was lurking above its head, which, because it was dark under the lamp, was also the safest place.

The one who was most relaxed and carefree was Little Dragon. He was so small and fast, and Tuotuo's fists were mostly aimed at targets larger than him. So Little Dragon moved through the storm of rocks as if he were playing.

Fairy Cloth, which can neither fly nor has high durability, is in a difficult position. It can only barely maintain its safety by using its agility and silk ribbons to stay afloat in this storm of attacks.

Her petite body resembled a small boat swaying precariously in a storm at sea, seemingly about to be swallowed and capsized by the surging waves.

However, as the worm's extremely long body emerged from the hole in the ground, more and more body hairs extended and waved from its body, and the balance that Fairy Cloth had tried so hard to maintain was finally broken by the body hairs that the worm extended from its abdomen.

To the left was a huge rock that had rolled over due to the earthquake, and to the right front were two body hairs waving and lashing out. Xianbu had just dodged a protruding sharp rock by pulling with her silk, and was now in a precarious position.

It is foreseeable that if she were hit by either a boulder or a fist, her already swaying body would completely lose its balance, and then she would be met with a series of fierce attacks.

Xianbu's heart sank. She knew that it was impossible to dodge now, so she shrank back and wrapped the silk around her body to minimize the damage she might suffer.

Even so, whether they can survive this catastrophe caused by the earthquake remains unknown.

At the critical moment, an orange-red figure swooped down from the sky, grabbed Fairy Cloth amidst the chaotic storm, and then rapidly ascended, carrying her away from the main battlefield.

…………

"Buyi... (Thank you for saving me, Senior Guleton...)"

Having nearly been killed by the chaotic onslaught of the worm-initiated attack, the master was still somewhat shaken even though he was temporarily out of danger.

[It's nothing serious. The earthquake will be over soon, and I'm preparing to fight back. What do you say?]

Therefore, Leton held the fairy cloth in its front paws and hovered in the air, waiting for an opportunity to strike.

"Buyi! (Take me with you, you just charge ahead, leave the rest to me!)"

Xianbu gritted his teeth.

Tuotuo Yin has a fiery temper, and Xianbu is not one to hold a grudge. Having just been made to look so bad, she naturally wants to get revenge.

Therefore, Leighton was aware of Xanbu's strength, so he did not stop him and nodded.

[Okay, be careful, I'll be very fast later.]

"Buyi! (Understood!)"

Xianbu responded and then took out a piece of silk to hold Guleton's paw, making it easier to separate from Guleton later.

Beneath him, the trembling gradually subsided, the pile of rocks returned to calm, and the wavy body hair of the worm began to show signs of fatigue.

Therefore, a glint of light flashed in Leighton's eyes, and he seized this excellent opportunity to swoop down.

At the same time, the ferocious energy from ancient times within its body burned and boiled, its entire body radiating a dazzling golden-orange light, and its whole body transformed into a dazzling wheel like the sun, crashing into the massive body of the dragging worm.

This is a Fighting-style move unique to Guleton: Full Power Slam!

This move is not only extremely powerful, but its power can be further enhanced if it targets the opponent's weaknesses.

Steel type is the type that Fighting type is weak against!

Therefore, Leighton's dive speed was extremely fast, and by the time Tortoise reacted, there were only two or three body lengths between them.

It could intuitively sense that the power of this move would be terrifying, but it was too late to dodge now. Because it had just vented its excitement, most of its nearly 20-meter-long body was exposed. If it tried to burrow back underground, it would probably have to endure two rounds of beatings.

With a quick change of heart, Tuotuo Yin decisively chose to counterattack.

As the steel-based energy surged, Tuotuo Earthworm unleashed its Iron Head. Its hard steel head, imbued with energy, took on a silvery-white metallic luster, further enhancing its hardness.

Isn't it just a head-on collision?

My main strength is being stubborn!

Ironhead's enhancement boosted Totoro's confidence, and it even looked forward to a head-on confrontation with Guleton.

Unbeknownst to it, Zoroark above its head, Milotic on the ground below, Gardevoir and Dragapult in mid-air on its flanks, and even Sylveon hanging below Gruulton, all had already amassed a wealth of energy, ready to deliver a thunderous blow to this behemoth.

…………

"boom--"

"Waaah—"

A deafening roar, like gunpowder exploding on a mountain, suddenly rang out in mid-air somewhere in the quarry.

Then came a heart-wrenching scream from Tuotuoyin.

The shockwaves from the explosion were so powerful that even Xia Chen, who was dozens of meters away, experienced a loss of hearing.

Seeing the thick smoke from the explosion in mid-air, his expression changed, realizing that Xianbu and the others had already launched a full-scale war against Tuotuo Yin.

Taking advantage of the brief respite from the earthquake, Xia Chen channeled his superpowers into his legs, quickening his pace once more.

Without the obstruction of an earthquake, a distance of tens of meters is covered in just a few seconds.

When Xia Chen arrived at the scene, the entire area was still covered by thick smoke from several attacks, and hot water vapor was rising in the air, which should be the result of Milotic's water cannon coming into contact with the two magical flames.

The high temperature and pungent smoke forced him to release his aura to form a barrier to isolate the outside world, and then he used some of his aura to extend and search for the traces of the elves and the worms.

But they discovered that it was no longer within a hundred meters.

It's been moved again?

Xia Chen frowned slightly.

The good news is that this should mean that the worm was no match for Fairy's firepower and had to run away again.

As the smoke gradually dissipated, he followed the worm-like tunnel tracks on the ground.

This time the pursuit was much longer. Even running at full speed, it took him almost three minutes to finally see the huge body of the worm in the distance.

At that moment, he smashed open a partially covered boulder on a small hill and then crawled into a cave that was clearly not naturally formed.

Xia Chen's eyes lit up. If he wasn't mistaken, that should be the place where Tuotuo Yin hid the secret seasoning.

Just as Ming Yicai said, when his physical condition was in danger, Tuo Tuo Yin's first thought was to eat the secret seasoning.

"Quick! Get in before it eats all the seasoning!"

Xia Chen ran and shouted, not daring to guarantee that Tuotuo worm wouldn't eat all the seasonings in a moment of panic.

Because it was dug out by the worm, the size of the cave entrance is very subtle, just big enough for the worm to enter, not even enough to fit a fairy cloth.

In this situation, only the smallest and fastest little dragon can be of use.

Positioned precisely between the worm's body and the edge of the cave, Little Dragon pierced through with pinpoint accuracy and then disappeared from Xia Chen's sight.

Xia Chen and the other elves couldn't get in, so they had to wait outside for the little dragon to come out.

Although the average speed of the two elves differs greatly, their strength is even more disparate. It's really hard to say who will win this pure speed contest.

…………

The cave must not be very long or deep, because the worms stop moving after entering and reaching a certain depth.

Its exposed tail twitched violently, and it looked as if the two elves were fighting over a secret seasoning.

This is a powerful Gym Leader Pokémon...

Xia Chen couldn't help but worry about Xiao Duolong's situation.

However, Dragapult wasn't even afraid of Cynthia's Garchomp, so a mere Steelix couldn't scare him either.

Before long, the worm's tail finally disappeared completely into the hill, it was unclear whether it was continuing to run away or turning out.

Before Tuotuo the worm came out, Xiaoduolong's figure appeared at the cave entrance first.

Her face showed guilt, and her two little paws were empty.

Didn't manage to snag the secret seasoning?

Therefore, a hint of disappointment appeared in Lelton's eyes. Xia Chen patted its head and comforted it, "It's okay. There are four other seasonings that can also help restore its strength. Don't blame Little Dragon. He did his best."

[How could I possibly do such a thing?]

Therefore, Leighton shook his head, shook off Xia Chen's hand, and went forward to greet and comfort the seemingly sad little Duolong.

"Don't be sad, I have other ways to heal."

As soon as Leighton finished speaking, the little dragon, who had been looking miserable just a second ago, suddenly blinked its big, bright yellow eyes mischievously, then opened its little paws, and a plant with a few small white flowers magically appeared in its hand.

Then came the second and the third plant.

He successfully snatched three secret seasonings from under Tuotuo's mouth!

"Messi! (Surprised? Unexpected!)"

Therefore, Leton's expression was quite interesting. It never expected that Little Dragon would play such a big joke on it, and it was both amused and exasperated.

But getting the item was the most important thing, and it sincerely thanked them, saying, "Thank you..., little Doron..."

Not only Dragapult, but also Sylveon, Milotic, Gardevoir... every Pokémon that fought alongside it in the search for the Secret Seasoning, and even Xia Chen, received Guleton's gratitude.

The lone traveler, who had been wandering alone for over two hundred years, experienced the warmth and help of companions time and time again after traversing time and space and falling into misfortune, and his state of mind underwent tremendous changes as a result.

At this moment, it even felt a little sorry for its mortal enemy. At this moment, it should be hiding in some corner, healing itself in solitude.

It's pathetic that I don't even have any friends...

…………

After burrowing into the hill, the worm never came out again. It seems that the combined attack from the elves left it with a great psychological trauma, completely robbing it of its desire for revenge.

Xia Chen didn't bother with it. The purpose of coming here was not for it in the first place. Now that he had the secret seasoning, he could let it go wherever it wanted.

Observing the three plants with small white flowers in his hand, Xia Chen didn't know which parts were edible and which were not, so he sent his current location information to Papa and Mingyi.

This place is several kilometers away from where the message was first sent, and the quarry is like the old Beijing—it's all tunnels.
