Chapter 324: The Totem of the Ancient Ruins of the Honghong Desert

Chapter 324: The Joy of the Machine Soul·Half-year Award·Hot Desert·Totem of Ancient Ruins

The picnic lasted until late at night, and the Pokémon around Luo Mu also switched several times.

Although the nearly 40 Pokémon in the farm could not show off all the watermelons in such a large melon field, with the activeness of a few bottomless pits, the watermelons were consumed by more than half.

The remaining watermelons should be enough to survive the hottest days if they are eaten sparingly. Unfortunately, until all the watermelons are picked, there are no "bastards" to steal the melons in the melon field, and Luo Mu has no chance to perform a moonlit night stabbing.

Fortunately, after picking off the stems and leaves on the watermelon vines in a few days, adhering to the principle of sustainable development, Hualiao Huanhuan and Bai Pengpeng can continue to cultivate the vines in the melon field, and perhaps they can welcome the second harvest before the end of midsummer.

Feeling that time was almost up, Luo Mu commanded the Pokémon to start cleaning up the mess, cleaning up the garbage they produced tonight, packing and sorting it into garbage bags of different colors, preparing to take it back to the farm and hand it over to the garbage truck that passes by the farm every day.

The way this world handles garbage is actually quite environmentally friendly and convenient.

There are several poisonous Pokémon in Pokémon that feed on all kinds of garbage, no matter what kind of garbage they eat. Their powerful digestive ability can digest the garbage into energy for their own activities or poison gas for attack.

Mud, Mud, Broken Bag and Dust Mountain, as well as Alola-like Mud and Mud are all good at it.

For example, the garbage produced in Flat Disk Town will be transported to a garbage treatment plant built outside the Table City, and the Pokémon raised in the treatment plant will handle the garbage.

At first, Luo Mu planned to raise such a Pokémon on the farm to deal with kitchen waste.

But considering the incurable and inescapable stench of the Mud and the Muddy Mud, he finally gave up the idea and honestly paid for the garbage disposal plant to deal with the garbage.

However, if the broken bag and the dust mountain are carefully cared for, it is said that they will not produce too much odor, and even the Alola-like Muddy ... In the silence of the night, the crickets playing the concerto have all rested, leaving only the sound of the gurgling stream. Even the sound of a needle falling on the ground is clear, not to mention this undisguised sound.

Luo Mu and the Pokémon looked at the source of the sound and found the Pokémon that was shining with pink and purple light under the moonlight.

"Iron Warrior."

Luo Mu narrowed his eyes, as if to confirm whether the Iron Warrior was the one he knew.

Roentgen, Mimikyu and Swampert did not rush forward, but each protected the living Pokémon who had no resistance in front of the Iron Warrior.

The Blue Blade Ghost, who was busy carving a watermelon rind into a bunny shape and honing his carving skills, stopped his action and looked at the person who came. He found that it was the Iron Warrior. The white smoke that replaced the pupil in the purple eyes of the Blue Blade Ghost swayed slightly, telling the fluctuations of the Blue Blade Ghost's mood.

If the fights with Roentgen Cat and Swampert honed Blue Blade Ghost's skills in fighting enemies, then the fight with Iron Warrior injected new vitality into Blue Blade Ghost's stagnant swordsmanship.

After a period of precipitation, Blue Blade Ghost's swordsmanship became more and more exquisite, and it could clearly feel its own progress.

At this time, Blue Blade Ghost's first reaction to Iron Warrior's coming again was surprise.

——Great, another fight, I will definitely become stronger.

Thinking so, Blue Blade Ghost looked at Luo Mu, and after getting Luo Mu's approval, Blue Blade Ghost carefully handed the carved watermelon rind bunny to Vulpix, smiled lightly, and walked towards Iron Warrior.

Sister Hu Hu looked at the figure of Iron Warrior curiously, and the cheerful one couldn't help shrinking his neck when he looked at the data eye of Iron Warrior. He sensed some kind of powerful threat from Iron Warrior.

But Hu Hu's brother had already shrunk into his shell, and no matter how Hu Hu's sister beat him, he would not come out. After looking at his brother with regret, Hu Hu's sister approached Frosty Milk Fairy and curiously asked about the origin of the Iron Warrior.

Seeing that in the farm Pokémon, except for the four big milk tanks who were not present, it seemed that only the new Hu Hu brothers and sisters did not know about the Iron Warrior, so Frosty Milk Fairy told them about the Iron Warrior's deeds in general, which made Hu Hu's sister and brother even more scared.

Even the big black bird was chopped by it like a melon or a vegetable, and they were terrified every time they saw the steel beak and claws of the steel armored crow. In this case, it is better to stay behind and be protected by the Roentgen cats.

In the silent night, there was only the sound of the knight with a mechanical body and the blue flame swordsman with cursed armor moving.

The two sides did not communicate at all. The moment they looked at each other, they knew each other's thoughts. They transitioned from a slow walk to a gallop. In an instant, the blue flame blade ghost and the iron warrior directly clashed with each other.

The iron warrior split the pink and purple sharp blade into two, and directly clashed with the flaming swords burning ghost fire on the arms of the blue flame blade ghost.

When the blades intersected, the crisp buzzing of the swords resounded through the night sky.

"Hiss."

Just after the battle, the Blue Blade Ghost found that the Iron Warrior's tactics were completely different from before. It seemed that he had predicted or calculated his sword moves, and blocked his attack one step ahead of time and launched a counterattack like a storm.

The Blue Blade Ghost frowned slightly, knowing that his sword moves were seen through by the Iron Warrior in some way. Luo Mu once said that the future paradox Pokémon like the Iron Warrior might have something in their bodies that could assist them in fighting and even in daily calculations. Now it seems to be true.

I'm afraid that the Iron Warrior borrowed the thing called "calculation" to crack all his methods after only one battle.

However, fortunately, I didn't waste my time during this period. The changes in sword moves and the level of skills have increased a lot.

Thinking of this, the Blue Blade Ghost's eyes condensed, and he changed his sword moves without hesitation, launching a second round of attacks in a way that the Iron Warrior could not expect. However, after a while, he turned the situation that the Iron Warrior had the upper hand back, and was still making fine adjustments in the battle according to the Iron Warrior's slash.

Neither Pokémon used any moves, and they all relied on pure swordsmanship to compete. The two swords seemed to be dancing out afterimages.

As the competition became more intense, the Iron Warrior became more confused.

It kept thinking and calculating through its thinking circuits, not understanding why it copied all the sword skills used by the Blue Blade Ghost in the previous battle, and deduced them to a higher level, why it could still use swordsmanship that was completely different from its deduction to fight, and at the same time absorb the swordsmanship it deduced.

Does this mean that it is not even as fast as the Blue Blade Ghost in learning?

In the end, the Blue Blade Ghost used a beautiful uppercut to pick up the pink and purple sharp blades held by the Iron Warrior, and the sword tips pointed at the Iron Warrior again, and spoke calmly.

"Siro." (You go.)

The Iron Warrior stood up silently, raised his hand gently, and the pair of pink and purple sharp blades deeply inserted into the soil seemed to be attracted by a huge magnet. They flew back to the Iron Warrior's left hand in an instant and reassembled into a double-handed pink and purple sharp blade.

"Pu Jin." (I'll come again.)

The Iron Warrior looked at the Blue Flame Blade Ghost deeply, and felt that his chest was filled with many emotions that it could not understand.

However, this time it will do its best to deduce the Blue Flame Blade Ghost's sword skills, and then completely defeat it next time, without any thoughts called hesitation and hesitation.

Because if you are timid, you will never be able to defeat the Blue Flame Blade Ghost.

It came quickly, and it left quickly.

The Iron Warrior tapped his toes lightly, and his agile figure left only a residual image, and left the scene quickly like a fairy under the moon, leaving only the lawn that was neatly trimmed by the aftermath of the battle between it and the Blue Flame Blade Ghost.

Only the Blue Flame Blade Ghost, who was lost in thought after some understanding of the sword skills, and Luo Mu, who had just picked up a watermelon and saw the Iron Warrior before he could give it away, looked confused.

July 16th, Minor Heat.

Last night, I stayed up too late. It was already noon, but Luo Mu was still lying in bed. On the contrary, Roentgen cat, monarch snake, and mimicry were full of energy and got up early to make trouble outside.

Despite the deafening noise outside, Luo Mu slept until eleven o'clock before being awakened by the vibration of his mobile phone.

As soon as he turned on his mobile phone, Luo Mu found that it was a text message from the bank.

[Padia People's Bank: At 11:45 on July 16, 798 in the Alliance Calendar, Orange Academy account 0101 was remitted to your account with the last number 114, with an income of 500,000 Alliance coins and a balance of 1,235,767.61 Alliance coins. Note: Half-year bonus. ]

"Well, it's over a hundred again, that's great."

Luo Mu woke up instantly from sleepiness and a smile appeared on his face.

The benefits of Orange Academy are quite good. Not only do they have four months of paid vacation every year, but they also have half-year bonuses like the one he received today and more generous year-end bonuses. The half-year bonus alone can be equivalent to more than two months of his salary.

It seems that Luo Mu's salary increase is not as high as the output of the big milk tank, but if this job is compared, it is like the civil servants before Luo Mu crossed over. The salary seems not high, but there are various benefits, which is very comfortable.

Not to mention that this job is relatively free. In the past, you had to attend classes regularly in a week, but now you can adjust it directly according to the teaching situation, which is very good for people like Luo Mu who like to search for suitable items all over the world and bring them back to the farm for development.

After happily accepting the bonus, Luo Mu, whose wallet was bulging again, was already tossing and turning in bed, thinking about how to spend the money.

The automatic milking machine prepared for the five big milk tanks was customized in Niangguang City for only 150,000 Alliance coins. Considering the degree of automation, it is already good value for money.

The big milk tanks only need to put on the milking device when the time comes, and the machine will automatically operate, squeezing out mooing fresh milk with appropriate force. During this period, it can also choose to stop or pause according to the actions of the big milk tanks, which is very user-friendly.

Luo Mu, who was freed from this, no longer needs to be busy squeezing milk for a long time. He only needs to package the mooing fresh milk and seal it in glass bottles.

"This money should be enough to build a new house. There are more and more Pokémon recently, and I am always hesitant to cook in the small kitchen. It seems that it should be included in the farm development plan."

Luo Mu turned over and thought about the plan to rebuild a bigger, more spacious and brighter new house. He changed into a fresh set of clothes and walked out of the room in slippers.

As soon as he went out, Luo Mu saw Dragonite and Dragonite leader training Sanmao and his tribe.

The Steeljaws that looked very domineering in the outside world and the Bluejay that looked very cunning were like quails in front of the two Dragonites, shrinking their necks to accept teaching.

Dragonite leader once delivered letters to passing trainers around the new island under the command of Mewtwo, and he has rich experience in this regard.

As long as he ignores that he occasionally interacts with the non-existent "ghost" around him, Dragonite leader is a good deliveryman teacher.

Dragonite accompanied Luo Mu around all day and was very familiar with the environment around Pingdie Town. He even had a rough map in his mind. Since Luo Mu only wanted to pilot the milk subscription business in Pingdie Town, his knowledge was enough.

Crows are extremely intelligent animals in nature. They even form gangs and crows in fables drink water with stones, not to mention Steeljaw and other Pokémon with higher intelligence.

One of the two Dragonites is very good at recognizing the road and has rich experience, while the other is familiar with the structure of Pingdie Town and the location of each area. With the combination of strengths, Steeljaw and the others have been trained in a proper manner.

Looking at this progress, after participating in the Pokémon Marathon Conference in the second half of the month, the milk subscription business will undoubtedly be launched smoothly.

Luo Mu said goodbye to Dragonite and the others with a smile on his face, and went straight to the warehouse, taking out a slightly yellowed map and carefully examining it.

"Well, it does mark in detail the possible locations of the iron tracks and Majestic Fang, but it doesn't have much use for me."

[Hmm! 】

"Don't be so proud. I'll leave the directions to you when the time comes."

After a brief exchange with System Sang, who was useless most of the time, Luo Mu rolled up the map again and put it into the painting tube that had been prepared long ago, taking good care of it.

Although this thing is usually used by art students to store paintings, it is also very suitable for storing maps.

This was brought back from Basaku's studio when Luo Mu went to find Basaku and Kosa last time. At that time, he saw that the size of the painting tube was very suitable, so he brought it back directly to store the map.

This map was given to Luo Mu by Terry. After Luo Mu received it, he had no intention of exploring there.

On the contrary, there was still some time before several major events, and the things that should be done were almost done. It was not a good idea to keep fishing on the farm, so Luo Mu took out this map and planned to go to the Honghong Desert to find out.

After all, in the game, the place where these two Pokémon live is where mature secret seasonings grow. Before the secret seasonings in his own farmland grow and mature, he can rely on the secret seasonings there to verify Luo Mu's own series of conjectures.

As for the props mentioned by Terry that can evolve Pokémon that cannot evolve, Luo Mu thinks that the probability of it being a Mega Evolution Stone is not high.

Although Padiya and Kalos are very close, there is a high probability that one or two Mega Evolution Stones will be lost in the Padiya area during the flow of people, but now that Swampert's evolution stone has been obtained, Luo Mu does not have a Pokémon that can Mega Evolution.

Unless a new Mega Evolution appears in the XY remake after the legendary Kyurem after he traveled through, or even in the legendary Zygarde, such as the Mega Evolution Stone of the Roentgen Cat, then the Mega Evolution Stone is basically useless to Luo Mu. At most, he can use it to exchange items with others, or give it as a reward.

Luo Mu's intuition told him that the evolution item might allow a Pokémon to complete a permanent evolution, rather than a time-limited evolution like Mega.

This made him look forward to the trip to the Hot Desert.

Meanwhile.

Kanto and Johto region, Orange Islands area.

Xiaozhi successfully defeated the head trainer Yuji at the Citrus Stadium and won his first victory. Although the reputation of this victory is far less than that of the League Conference, he still smiled happily when registering in the Victory Palace.

On the ceiling of the Victors Palace, the Messenger Bird, who witnessed Xiaozhi's normal 6vs6 full-member battle, shook his head and lamented that the boy was still too young. It was just a victory of this level of battle, but he was so happy. When he participated in the Johto League, he would not be able to win so easily against the old man who used ice and the last dragon messenger Xiaozhuan.

Thinking of this, the Messenger Bird flapped its wings and left the Victors Palace, flew out of the Citrus Island, and flew to the other end of the horizon.

Although it and Mewtwo challenged all the gyms in the Johto area in their spare time to kill time, the process of the challenge was just that Mewtwo took it to teleport, arrived in the city, and then challenged the gym, and left after getting the badge.

In fact, the Messenger Bird has not seen many scenes in the Johto area.

The messenger bird was tired of flying, so it landed on a coconut tree on a small island in the sea. It opened the notebook that Luo Mu gave it and browsed the contents on it. When it was almost dusk, it slowly closed the notebook and put it and a pair of blue slippers back into its hollow tail as if it were a treasure.

According to the handwritten contents of Luo Mu on the notebook, there are many good places in the Johto area that are worth exploring and checking in.

Such as the Alufu Ruins, the Bell Bud Tower in Kikyo City, the Slowpoke Well in the east of Hinoki Town and the Oak Forest in the west, the Burnt Tower and Bell Tower in Yuanzhu City, the Angry Lake near Kaji Town, the Lighthouse in Asagi City, the Whirlpool Islands and the Silver Mountains.

I think this is another thrilling journey and adventure.

The messenger bird's eyes flashed with yearning, and it leaned against the coconut tree and fell asleep.

Johto area, green grassland, near the Alufu Ruins.

A Pokémon archaeology doctor named Shiuli Snowdon is investigating a dark ancient ruin with his assistant.

The camera in his hand keeps shooting the mysterious words carved on the stone wall until he finds a rusty treasure chest. After opening it, many woodcuts come into Shiuli Snowdon's eyes.

After hesitating for a while, Shiuli Snowdon picked up three of the woodcuts. Before he could look at them carefully, the woodcuts suddenly lit up with a blue light, and there was a faint flash of lightning in the air.

"This is..."

Shiuli Snowdon was stunned, and before he finished speaking, he found himself surrounded by a group of black single-eyed Pokémon with strange looks, like alphabetical symbols.

The next moment.

Shiuli Snowdon disappeared in the ruins.

Only a camera that fell out of thin air startled the assistant who was concentrating on shooting the words on the stone wall. The assistant looked around but did not find any trace of Dr. Shiuli Snowdon, and could not help but look horrified.

"Doctor."

The Hot Desert is a vast desert in the western part of the Padiya region. It is the nightmare of novice trainers and a great place for senior trainers to make a fortune.

Just as an old friend once said -

"Want my treasure? If you want, I can give it all to you. Go find it! I put all the treasure there!"

Because of this sentence, the Great Pirate Era began.

Although the Padiya region is not so outrageous, there are still many rumors among trainers that seem very real.

About 2,000 years ago, the Padiya region was ruled by the Padiya Empire. At that time, the emperor kept driving the people to explore the Padiya Giant Pit while hiding many of his treasures.

Among the countless places where the Padiya emperor hid treasures, the Hot Desert won the first place with an overwhelming advantage. After all, among the countless trainers who went in and out of the Hot Desert, many people exchanged a lot of money for many valuable items picked up in the Hot Desert.

Some even picked up priceless comet fragments and became wealthy overnight.

As someone who had explored the Hot Desert dozens of times and even had a full set of equipment, Luo Mu could not deny the possibility of this statement. After all, even he had picked up a lot of good things in the Hot Desert.

Just as One Piece opened the Great Pirate Era, the Padiya region also continued to set off an unprecedented treasure hunt in the Hot Desert.

Countless trainers and explorers entered the Hot Desert one after another, just to find the illusory treasure of the Padiya Emperor.

Terry was once one of them, but now he has given up this dream and chose to stay in Ziqin Town to live a stable life with his wife and children.

On July 18, Luo Mu, who was ready, rode on Dragonite, carrying the map provided by Terry, as well as a backpack of drinking water and food, and plunged into the Hot Desert in one breath.
