This elf world is a bit strange

Near it, the forest that used to be quite lively now seemed a bit quiet, and almost no Pokémon could be heard.

Only a few common wild animals are still moving around, adding a bit of vitality to this place.

Everything seemed unnatural.

But here is a vacuum zone between area A and area B, and even the tightly controlled protection area is difficult to detect for a while.

Chapter 50: Traveling Together, Anecdotes in the Mountains (13/40, please order first!)

"Why are you three grown men so slow? I've been waiting for you for a long time! Really, you are not enthusiastic about going out to play. There must be something wrong with your brains~"

Outside the dormitory building, Ina seemed to have been waiting for a long time. She started complaining as soon as she saw the three people who were late. But at the end, her tone rose again, with excitement that could not be suppressed even with force.

Although she is a girl with a strong sense of literature and art, Ina also has a love for traveling, but she lacks the physical strength and is unable to do so.

Now, with Antoine, Filho and Apé as her three flower protectors and laborers, Miss Ina is naturally in a good mood. She can't wait to set off early to enjoy a pleasant vacation (crossed out) among the mountains and rivers of nature and enjoy a fulfilling outdoor study life.

"Chirrut! Chirrut!"

Kirlia also waved her hands and greeted them repeatedly.

"Here we go!" Antoine quickened his pace, taking two steps at a time and coming to his girlfriend's side. "Weren't you just studying that booklet? We need to mark out the dangerous areas from our route and avoid them as much as possible."

"Well... that's more like it!"

After lightly holding her cheek and pretending to think for a while, Ina changed her anger into joy and took Antoine's arm.

"According to Ina's idea, we want to go to a place that is not too tiring and has a more natural atmosphere, right? So, I designed a route heading south according to the map. However, it's a pity that the real natural scenery is outside area A, but not in area B, so we can't go there. We can only think about it later when we have the chance!"

Filho and Apé, who deliberately walked a few steps slower than Antoine, also walked to Ina. Filho picked up the map, revealing the markings, which made Ina very satisfied.

"I heard there are a lot of beautiful wild Pokémon there. Ina, you only have Kirlia as your partner now. Have you ever considered capturing one or two more?"

"Well, let's talk about it~ We must be of the same mind. Anyway, I am very happy to have Chilu accompany me. I don't like fighting~" With a giggle, Ina shook her head, pulled Antoine around, pointed forward, "Let's go~!"

"Chirrut~!"

"Wait a minute, Ina, you're going the wrong way. That's east, not south."

Apei's face was filled with gloom. He trotted forward and adjusted the two people's direction.

“…Huh? Hehehe!”

Scratching her head, Ina's pretty face blushed slightly, and she pretended nothing had happened.

After this little episode, the four of them set off together towards the more primitive mountainous area in the southern part of Area A.

The figure of talking and laughing side by side made many students envious.

However, they did not hesitate for too long, and set out one after another, either alone or in groups. Some found their destination and concentrated on exploring, while others traveled around and played with friends.

After all, the assessment itself is very easy to pass, and the rest depends on personal performance. It is not mandatory. Even if you only find some fruits and medicinal herbs near the camp, there is no problem.

In a corner of the camp, Thornton and several teachers watched the students go away silently without saying much.

Many students in the advanced classes actually have no idea of ​​becoming powerful trainers. Most of them just study step by step in school, and after graduation, they use the knowledge they have learned to do a job related to Pokémon.

This is the mainstream of life.

Soon, the camp, which had been very lively, returned to calm as the students left one after another.

-----------------

"Wow, this little Snorlax is so cute. Look, Antoine, it's so chubby!"

"Wow! This mimosa is so beautiful!"

"Also, this Meow Meow has such smooth fur. I wonder how it takes care of it."

......

......

Touring in the mountains, everyone felt relaxed and happy in the fresh air. Ina was especially excited, chattering non-stop, adding a bit of liveliness and excitement.

In the forest not far from the camp, there live relatively friendly wild Pokémon, most of which have strong friendships with the rangers, so they are very friendly when they see students who obviously have no ill intentions.

A little Snorlax even took the initiative to step forward and gave Ina a pomelo fruit for praising him.

For the little fellow who was still drooling, being able to take food out of his mouth was obviously very telling, and it made Ina very happy.

"Antoine, Firio! Come on, get some food~!"

Miss Ina waved her hand and the two little followers quickly took action.

Firio, who was well prepared, took out the advanced general-purpose energy block he had made before setting off, which he learned from Director Nils. Antoine took out the special Pokémon food made by the Binek Gym.

The tempting aroma instantly captured the little Snorlax, who was not full yet. He hugged Ina's thighs and refused to let go, begging for food in a coquettish manner.

It is smart and can tell at a glance who is the one in charge.

"Eat, you have to eat well so that you can grow into a cuter big guy!"

Rubbing the big ears covered by long hair, Ina spoke in a gentle tone, which made little Chilu beside her feel a little jealous.

"Gombey~Gombey!"

Holding a bag of elf food in one hand, and a small box of energy cubes in the other, some hidden in the thick hair, the little Kabimon followed the four of them, walking and eating all the way, and the belly soon became rounder than before A few points.

"Gombey!"

When they reached a place where the road was almost invisible, Snorlax stopped, pointed forward, then tugged at the corner of Ina's clothes. His chubby little face was squeezed together with a smile, looking very adorable.

"You mean, do you want us to go over there? There's something good over there?"

Ina leaned over and touched Snorlax's head.

"Gombey~!"

Snorlax nodded vigorously, pointed, then ran back to the woods, turned around and waved vigorously.

"Then thank you, little Snorkel! I'll see you again when I come back~! Don't forget to eat the food you hide under your hair!"

"Gombey~"

-----------------

"Oh my, Snorlax is such a cute Pokémon!"

Even after walking a long way, Ina was still obsessed with the feel of her hands and the cute look of the little Snorlax.

"But if it evolves into Snorlax, the daily food expenses will be a big problem! Little Dream Monster, help me pick it off, one or two will be enough."

Firio joked as he carefully examined a wild bergamot fruit.

"Machi~!"

The telekinesis rose into the air, and with a "click" sound, a well-grown fruit slowly fell down and landed in Ferio's hand.

"click"

Not wanting to be outdone, Ibrahimovic also mobilized his superpowers and picked the same one.

"Well done, little Dream Demon, and little Eevee too. I have less worries when you are here!"

After collecting the two fruits, Firio gently caressed the two little guys, treating them equally with the rain and dew. He was very experienced in coaxing children.

"Machi~"

"...Buyi~"

One after the other, Ogre and Eevee responded sweetly.

"Meal expenses..." At this time, Ina took over the conversation, "Oh, it's really a problem, but the fact that it can live here shows that the rangers take good care of it."

Antoine nodded. "Of course. Many of these rangers are qualified as junior breeders. Although they are not experts, it is no problem for them to raise some wild Pokémon with big appetites. After all, the natural conditions here are also very good, so it is not difficult to grow some edible fruits."

"Poli!"

Bricklon agrees with this. As a powerful Grass-type Pokémon, it can feel the vibrant vitality here even better.

This is all thanks to the joint efforts of wild Pokémon and reserve rangers, as well as the unwavering support of surrounding cities and the Kalos Alliance.

"I see!"

Curious baby Ina nodded repeatedly like a chick pecking at rice.

"However, the beauty here is also relative to the urban environment. In my memory, when I was very young, I saw a forest in Guandu that was much better than here. But the impression is very vague. I must go back and see it after graduation. look."

In the distance, Apei, who had just finished studying the fruit trees, walked back with a glass container containing a small amount of samples, handed it to the little dream demon, asked it to store it in the shadow space, and turned to speak to Ina and Antoine.

Firion asked curiously, "Kanto, Viridian Forest?"

"That should be the case. I always have a vague feeling that I can find answers to many questions there." Apei had a complicated expression, and it was difficult for him to describe this feeling. "Well, let's not talk about this for now. It's too early. Firio, give me a bite of the bergamot fruit to see if there is any difference between the ones I planted."

"How about it?"

"Hmm... I can only say it's okay, but the taste isn't particularly good. Would you like to try Mongoose Slash?"

"Sanger? Sanger!"

After taking a bite, Mongoose Zhan frowned and forced himself to swallow it, then said he would not eat anything else.

The astringency of this wild bergamot fruit is even slightly stronger than its sweetness.

"Wild fruit may not provide the right amount of nutrition, and some Pokémon may prefer it. Is it just that your taste is too picky?"

Firio joked as he smiled and patted the shoulder of Ape, who was frowning and didn't want to waste anything.

"That's easy to say, how about you help me eat some?"

"Forget it then, come on!"

-----------------

Heading south, we soon arrived at an area where few people live.

However, Snorlax's guidance was indeed very valuable. Along the way, the four of them discovered a large number of high-quality resources.

Except for Ina, Firio and the other two have very good abilities in survival in the wild and handling supplies. They only take a portion of all the resources so as not to destroy the normal growth environment.

Even so, it can be said that the harvest was very fruitful, with many rare wild fruits and medicinal herbs harvested.

Even Philio's superpowers grew visibly in the process of coming into contact with these things.

It is indeed helpful to have more exposure to the wider world.

......

......

"The sun is about to set! Shall we set up camp and eat? I want to show you my skills!"

There was a flat open space near the mountain stream. Ina, who was already tired from walking, stretched and suggested.

Although Firio's craftsmanship is also very good, he naturally would not discourage Ina's rare enthusiasm.

......

......

"Little Eevee, help me make this corner float up, and I'll hammer the nail down first!"

"Buy!"

"Little Dream Demon, help me get the rope out."

"Madge!"

"Antoine, there's something wrong with your tent. Go help Ina. Leave it to me!"

......

......

"Ape, you are lazy again! Mongoose Slash, beat him!"

"Sanger!"

"Hey! Am I your trainer or Philio?! Why do you listen to him? Didn't I give you snacks? Ouch! You hit me back!"

......

......

Firion, Ogre and Eevee were diligently setting up tents for four people.
