Elf: Start your slow-paced life after becoming a farmer.

Karl feigned eagerness as he walked towards Master Xiong, secretly thinking, "Plan works."

The veterans like Viper, Serperior, and Corviknight, who had witnessed the entire conversation between Karl and Gullton, immediately shuddered and then cast admiring glances at Gullton.

'So, Leighton is truly a man of courage!' The veterans thought to themselves in unison.

Chapter 195 Karl's Wonderful Adventures: The "Hero" Gu Leton

When Carl presented Gulliverton with a plate of food covered in mosaics, Gulliverton fell silent.

"Hmm?" Guleton looked at Karl, who was standing in front of it with a tray of food, and began to wonder if this human wanted to kill it.

"Phew—it seems my cooking skills haven't gotten any worse." Karl looked at Guleton expectantly and said, "Guleton, you should try it. This is a high-end nutritional meal that I originally planned to make for Martial Arts Bear Master."

The silent martial arts bear master glanced at the mosaic-covered food on Karl's plate, his lips twitched, then looked at Guleton with pity before continuing to grill the meat.

'Do I really have to eat this?' Guleton wailed inwardly, but outwardly it maintained a calm expression, trembling as it took the plate from Karl's hand. Then, its hand holding the plate slipped, and the plate slipped from its grasp.

Just then, Espeon used its psychic powers to freeze the plate in mid-air, then placed it back perfectly into Gullardon's hands.

So Leton stared wide-eyed, turning his head to look at Espeon, who was watching the Martial Arts Ursa barbecue, with an incredulous expression.

'You inherently evil purple-haired creature, watch me...' Guleton roared in its mind, but before it could finish speaking, Karl's voice entered its ears again.

"Gulerton, eat! Why aren't you eating?"

Upon hearing this, Leton trembled. It looked around at the Pokémon around it as if seeking help, only to find that all the Pokémon around it had gathered around Urshifu, pretending that they could not hear or see anything.

Seeing this, Leton smiled with relief, then opened its mouth and, as if facing death, stuck out its tongue to lick the plate in its hand.

The moment Guleton's tongue touched the food on the plate, its tongue went numb, followed by an indescribable feeling of nausea that slid into its mouth.

Immediately afterwards, Guleton's eyes rolled back, and he fainted again.

"Sigh, you really aren't a martial arts bear master. If you were, you could probably eat all this food," Karl said with a regretful expression.

"No, I can't." Upon hearing this, Martial Arts Master Xiong immediately refused in his heart. At this moment, Martial Arts Master Xiong displayed the composure of a grandmaster who would not change his expression even if the heavens and mountains collapsed in front of him, successfully keeping his composure and not revealing the slightest thought in his heart.

"Well, in that case, let's try a different approach next time," Carl said.

……

Where am I? How did I faint again?

When Leighton opened his eyes, the first thing he saw was the night sky obscured by wisps of clouds, with stars twinkling through the gaps in the clouds, which briefly shielded him from the painful memories of his previous coma.

"Oh, you're awake? You're a girl now." A voice rang out, sending shivers down Guleton's spine. It instinctively turned its head and saw Karl gnawing on a grilled beef rib.

'What, a girl?' Guleton was stunned. As a legendary Pokémon, it didn't even have a gender, so how could it become female?

"Alright, wake up and get up to eat. If you stay up any longer, there really won't be anything left," Karl kindly reminded him.

Carl's words were like a key, unlocking the memories that Gu Leton absolutely did not want to recall.

"Eat..." Gu Leton's eyes became lifeless. "Even if I, Gu Leton, were to die, or choke on water, I would never..."

Half a minute later, Gu Leton was holding a grilled beef rib sprinkled with chili powder in each hand, and was eating with great satisfaction: "Mmm!"

Although Carl didn't understand what Guleton was saying, he could tell from the expression on its face that the guy was very happy with the food.

The Pokémon standing nearby looked at Guleton's dazed and clueless appearance, and then remembered its "heroic feat" just now, that even the most gluttonous Charizard in the team was unwilling to compete with Guleton for food.

After enjoying the barbecue that Master Xiong had prepared with a guilty conscience, Gu Leton lay down comfortably on the soft grass.

When was the last time I ate something like this? No, this is probably the best food I've ever eaten in my life. Should I ask this human to take me away from here? As long as there's good food, nothing else matters.

Just as Guleton was having a good meal and began to ponder the meaning of life, Gengar, who had gone for a stroll at the Second Observatory after the meal, returned to Karl's side with its finds.

As usual, Carl glanced at it, and after not seeing a Poké Ball, he picked up the handwriting left by the professor without hesitation and began to read it.

“The power of crystals is very strong. Companies are afraid of their instability, but by utilizing this energy, they can begin research that was impossible in the past.”

"We can finally start building the amusement park."

Judging from the contents of the notes, the so-called "research that could not be achieved in the past" probably refers to the "time machine" project in Karl's view.

The "paradise" mentioned last should refer to bringing the "paradoxical species" to this world through a time machine, creating a paradise unique to the "ancient species" and the "future species".

As a time traveler, Karl had seen many speculations about the "paradoxical species" online in his previous life.

Some people believe that the so-called "paradoxical species" should be beings from other times, and that Orin and Dr. Fortu used a "time machine" to bring them to the present world, which is almost impossible to accomplish, so they are called "paradoxical species".

However, some people believe that the so-called "paradoxical species" are literally "errors that should not exist," and that their existence is based on a little turtle that was enraged by the movement of continental plates and fell into a crisis of genocide.

Because the story of "Seven/Purple" is vague about the origin of Paradoxes, the Pokédex even suggests that "Future" was actually created by humans.

However, as we all know, the descriptions in the Pokémon Pokédex are just for fun, and no one would actually believe the descriptions in the Pokémon Pokédex, right?

In fact, Carl wasn't interested in the origin of paradoxes; what he really cared about was the origin of his own sister, Fa Jie.

Since entering the Paddy pit, Zhenyifa has been in a state of high excitement.

Carl also noticed that after entering the Padia Pit, his sister Fa had experienced a certain degree of enhancement in both her control over energy and her various basic attributes.

Although this seems like a good thing on the surface, Carl still has some concerns about it.

After all, if this increase disappears after Zhenyi leaves the Padia pit, will it cause some kind of "withdrawal" reaction?

Furthermore, Karl is currently unsure whether his sister's change is related to the high concentration of crystalline energy in Zone Zero, or whether it is influenced by something else.

Just as Karl was lost in thought, the Serpent Lord suddenly used its vines to pull Karl to its side.

"What's wrong, Serpent Lord? What happened?" Karl looked at Serpent Lord with some surprise. Normally, Serpent Lord would never interrupt him when he was thinking.

"Garug! (A large group of Pokémon is approaching us.)"

As soon as the Serpent Lord finished speaking, deep blue flowers emerged from the night and appeared around the camp.

Looking at those beautiful yet deadly blue flowers, Karl's face instantly turned grim.

Chapter 196 Karl's Bizarre Adventure: The Crystal Flower of Connections

Crystal Blossom, a mineral Pokémon, normally resembles a budding indigo flower. Once Crystal Blossom senses danger, it opens its crystal petals and, together with Crystal Bud (Crystal Blossom's initial form), fights off the enemy.

As a Pokémon with the Rock and Poison types, Crystalbloom is four times weak to Ground and twice weak to Water and Psychic, but it has resistance to all five types and four times resistance to Poison.

Crystalbloom boasts a high Special Attack stat of 130, along with decent bulk. Even though its Speed ​​stat is mediocre, it still makes it a well-rounded Pokémon in both offense and defense.

Crystal Blossom has a rare ability called "Poison Spikes," which allows the user to spray poison spikes onto the field when hit by a physical move, making it a rather useful ability.

Crystal Blossom's hidden ability is its ability to corrode Steel-type and Poison-type Pokémon, making it quite useful for Poison-type Pokémon.

In ZA, Crystallize even gained a Mega Evolution and acquired the incredibly powerful Adaptability. Its Special Attack reached an astonishing 150 after Mega Evolution, and its Speed ​​stat was even faster than a pseudo-legendary Pokémon with a base stat of -10.

(mega crystal flower)

In his previous life, Carl was obsessed with Poison-type Pokémon for a period of time, and since Crystalbloom is a Poison-type Pokémon that appeared in Generation IX, he knew quite a bit about it.

In most cases, Crystal Flowers move and even hunt in groups. In other words, when you see one Crystal Flower, you are probably surrounded by Crystal Flowers.

And this was precisely the situation Karl was facing at that moment.

As Karl watched the cluster of crystalline flowers slowly emerge from the night sky, he felt a chill run down his spine. Although most of the Pokémon in Karl's team had considerable resistance to poison, as the saying goes, talking about toxicity without considering dosage is just being irresponsible.

If these Crystal Blossoms release their poison at the same time, all Pokémon present except Charizard will be affected to some extent.

Under the soft moonlight, Carl and his Pokémon stood in quiet "standoff" with the Glitterblooms for a while. Seeing that the Glitterblooms had not made a move, Carl's mind began to stir.

Compared to the clueless Guleton, Karl might be able to glean more information about the current state of Sector Zero from the cluster of crystalline flowers before him.

With this in mind, Karl glanced at the group of crystalline flowers, and then his gaze settled on the largest-looking crystalline flower in the group.

As the invisible "force of bond" mentally linked Karl with his chosen target, Karl's voice immediately rang out from the heart of the crystalline flower.

"Hello, Crystal Flower, I'm Carl."

The moment Karl tried to communicate with the giant crystalline flower, its body trembled violently, and the crystalline petals opened halfway before slowly closing again.

Seeing this, Karl raised his hand and waved in the direction of the large crystal flower, indicating that he was communicating with it.

"What is the purpose of your surrounding this camp?" Karl asked very politely.

"Hungry," the large crystal flower answered truthfully.

Due to the "riot" inside the Padia Pit, this small group of Crystal Flowers were forced to leave their original home, and then they encountered Karl and his group.

Carl raised an eyebrow after hearing the giant crystal flower's words: "So you want some food?"

"That's right, the boss said humans will give us good food," the big crystal flower replied.

'Big Sister.' Carl noticed the term mentioned by the big crystal flower.

"That's right, our leader went with you humans, so we can ask them for food from you now," the Big Crystal Flower explained earnestly.

Could the boss mentioned by this Crystal Flower be the Crystal Flower that President Yeci has?

Those humans who are able to enter the Padia Giant Pit are basically all affiliated with the Padia Alliance, and within the Padia Alliance, only Ye Ci can make such a promise to this Crystal Flower Clan.

Carl brought in a lot of food using Gengar, and it wouldn't be a problem to share some with the Crystal Flowers. Besides, all the expenses could be paid by President Yeci.

With this in mind, Karl raised his hand and summoned Gengar, then had it take out five bags of general Pokémon food from its belly.

Each bag of general-purpose Pokémon food weighs nearly 100 pounds. If they eat it sparingly, these five bags of Pokémon food can probably feed this group of Glowflowers for about a week.

After placing the five bags of Pokémon food in front of the Glowing Sprites, the Glowing Sprite that maintained a mental connection with Carl came over and affectionately nuzzled Carl's cheek.

Feeling the cold touch on his face, Karl raised his hand and touched the crystallized petals of the Crystal Flower.

"If you'd like, you can stay with us around here for the night, and we can look out for each other," Karl said to the Great Crystal Flower.

To wild Pokémon populations, Carl's words are roughly equivalent to a powerful Pokémon overlord allowing them to rest in his territory, implying "I've got your back."

Upon hearing Karl's words, the Great Crystal Flower immediately turned to communicate with her companions.

After a moment, the large crystal light floated back to Karl and nodded seriously.

And just like that, a major conflict was averted through Karl's social skills.

After returning to the camp, Carl briefly explained the situation to the Pokémon.

Everyone was very satisfied with Carl's handling of the situation, after all, fighting a large group of Poison-type Pokémon is not a pleasant experience.

Even if we could defeat the opponent, it's really not worth it to create a scene filled with poison gas.

Since it was still early, Carl didn't go to sleep immediately. Instead, he planned to give the Pokémon some routine care, especially their Majestic Teeth.

Perhaps because of his familiarity with the ground, Majestic Tooth usually resists washing his body with water. Therefore, Karl uses sand baths to clean Majestic Tooth most of the time on the farm.

In addition to basic body care, Carl also bought a set of tools specifically for caring for Majestic Teeth's two tusks.

Although the strength of this tusk makes it difficult for it to be damaged in battle, difficult does not mean impossible.

So, in addition to having the Martial Arts Bear Master add special substances to Majestic Teeth's food to strengthen its tusks, Carl would also use care tools to externally reinforce Majestic Teeth's tusks.

Simply put, it involves applying a special plaster to the ivory, which forms a protective layer on the surface of the ivory. This protective layer not only strengthens the ivory but also makes it easier to clean.

After working for nearly two hours, Carl finally finished his nursing duties for the evening.

Sweating profusely, Carl immediately had Gengar use Rain Dance in a small area, then he quickly rinsed his body and finally had Charizard use the lowest power of its hot air to dry his hair.

"Pokémon is so convenient," Carl exclaimed countless times.

After instructing the Pokémon on the night watch on the rules, Carl took out his sleeping bag from his backpack and crawled inside.

Smelling the fragrance emanating from the Monarch Serpent, Karl, who had been active all day, quickly drifted off to sleep.

Chapter 197 Karl's Bizarre Adventure: Reshiram Makes His Debut!

The next day, as soon as Karl opened his eyes, he felt the long-lost feeling of being tightly bound, a sensation he only experienced when spending the night in the wild with the Monarch Serpent.

In fact, Karl hadn't experienced this feeling for quite some time, so suddenly experiencing it again made him feel rather nostalgic, but...

"Monarch Serpent, I need to get up. Today we're going to reach the very bottom of Zone Zero in one go, so you can't stay in bed." Karl gently stroked the Monarch Serpent's warm scales and spoke softly.

"Huh? (What are you talking about?)" The Monarch Serpent coiled around Karl let out a long-lost breath after hearing his words.

Who's the one who likes to stay in bed? The Serpent freed Karl from the restraints it had inadvertently set up, then gently flicked Karl with its tail before gliding out of the makeshift tent amidst Karl's teasing laughter.

Watching the Serpent Lord leave using the grass slide, Karl stretched and yawned: "The Serpent Lord is still so dishonest."

After putting on all his gear, Karl quickly packed his sleeping bag into his backpack and then strode out of the tent.

Although it is six o'clock in the morning, it is already bright outside because summer is approaching.

Upon seeing Karl, Martial Arts Master Bear immediately raised his hand to indicate that he could have breakfast.

Carl first nodded to Master Xiong, then turned his gaze to Gu Leton, who was wolfing down his food.

Haji, you actually accepted your status as a prisoner in just half a day and started enjoying it?
