Not a trainer this time.

Chapter 418 Apple Orchard and Fruit-gnawing Fruit Worms, the new adventure of the Heroes Expedition Team!
"Guest, the moo milk, tree fruits, rock salt, honey and other crops you ordered have been sent out. I believe you will receive them in another twenty minutes."

Naoki imitated the tone of Taobao's customer service in his previous life and said with a smile.

Qishu suddenly felt guilty, but he continued to act: "Eh? What are you talking about, Naoki? Why can't I understand?"

Naoki: "..."

"Okay, okay, stop pretending, are those three orders yours?" Naoki was speechless and a little touched in his heart.

Qishu is a pretty good person and worth making friends with!
After all the words were said, Qishu stopped acting. She admitted with a smile:
"Because the crops in your pasture are of high quality! Your body will become healthier if you eat them, so I bought some for my parents and gave them away!"

At this time, the dragons are already approaching Niangguang City, right?
Qishu wanted to add something more, but he saw a fast dragon carrying a satchel land at the door of Qishu's house under the guidance of Rotom's mobile phone.

Qishu moved the camera away, stepped forward and took the goods from Kuailong, and then said to Zhishu: "Okay! I have received the goods, hey, Kuailong Express is really convenient!"

Naoki could only sigh helplessly: "Okay!"

"Yeah!" Qishu nodded repeatedly. She was a little worried that Zhishu would say something about her, so she quickly found an excuse and hung up the communication.

However, when he drank the goat's milk, he immediately felt that his whole body became hot and full of strength.

Hearing his mother's words, Qishu was stunned for a moment, and then he remembered the magical goat milk sold at Zhishu Ranch.

She had seen the magic of goat milk with her own eyes.

After finishing the communication with Qishu, Zhi Shu waited in the ranch for about twenty minutes before he saw Kuailong and the others who had gone out to deliver goods return to the ranch.

"Your dad has already run around the yard ten times and is now wrestling with a strange force on the grass!"

There was no other way, Naoki could only give up, and at the same time he began to worry whether Qiling Youma's long-term wearing of that trophy would cause his skull to deform and turn into the shape of the trophy...

Naoki glanced at the time on Rotom's phone and murmured:
"It only takes 20 minutes to get from Zhiqin Town to Niangguang City. It is indeed a fast dragon that can fly around the earth in only 16 hours."

That's right, it's the championship trophy that Lingyou Horse won at the horse racing conference last year.

He looked at the ghost horse in the stable and felt that he could not continue like this.

At this moment, the man saw a special bottle of goat's milk among the pile of goods. The goat's milk had a label of "Goat Milk of Life" and a Q-version avatar of a mount lamb next to it.

Later, it kept wearing it as a crown on its head. Naoki once wanted to help it take it off for safekeeping, but Reiyouma refused.

The woman recounted what had just happened word for word.

At the same time, in Niangguang City, Qishu, who was about to change his clothes and take the Electric Belly Frog and the others to work at the gym, suddenly received a call from his parents.

For those ordinary big-mouthed gull express delivery, Kuailong Express is simply a dimensionality reduction blow.

When the call was connected, Qishu heard his mother's slightly anxious voice from the other end.

Qishu was stunned and asked quickly: "What's wrong? What happened?"

He even felt that if the dragons used all their strength, this time would become shorter.

For example, take the upcoming spring horse racing. According to Naoki's observation, Snowstorm Horse seems to be looking forward to this event.

Putting aside the things on the Internet for now, Naoki planned to go see the Pokémon in the ranch.

A bit like brushing orders...

The two signed for the goods, sent the dragon away, and returned home to look at the fresh crops, preparing to eat them this morning.

"Baby girl, where did you buy those things?"

The flowers in the garden were blooming extremely luxuriantly, and some wild butterflies were attracted, flapping their wings and flying among the flowers, stretching their graceful figures.

Why does it sound like the little pills sold to middle-aged men by some unscrupulous pharmacies?
Thinking of this, the woman suddenly became worried: "There shouldn't be any side effects, right?"

*
In early spring, the entire pasture is filled with a thriving scene.

When the couple saw the names and mobile phone numbers on it, they knew that their daughter had bought it for them.

Qishu comforted him: "Don't worry, there are absolutely no side effects! I've seen others drink it with my own eyes!"

Except for Qishu, there are no other customers in the ranch shop for the time being.

Gurusha, who was once unable to ski due to injury, became able to ski again after drinking this goat milk.

Ten minutes later, Naoki looked at the good reviews on his online store and didn't know what to say.

Thinking of this, Qishu quickly said to his mother: "I forgot to tell you! That kind of goat milk is very special. It is specially given to seriously injured people and Pokémon. If healthy people drink it, they will become full of energy." The energy will not stop until all the energy is used up!”

Spring is here, and there are still many things waiting for him to deal with on the ranch.

The woman felt relieved.

Thinking of this, Naoki felt that that kind of thing was too bad.

Ten minutes ago, a postman dragon landed at their home and handed them lots of produce and fresh milk.

There are a bunch of buffs like high-speed movement, divine speed, dance of dragons, etc.

[User Dian Dianshu: The goods have been received! The moo fresh milk is delicious and the vegetables are also very fresh! The taste of rock salt is also very unique. My Pokémon and I like it very much and will support it again in the future! 】

Because it also really wants the "crown" that Lingyou Horse wears on its head.

Because it feels that it is a symbol of the horse king and cannot be given to others casually.

Hearing this, the woman was dumbfounded: "Which store still sells such things?"

The man who had never drank goat's milk was very curious, so he decided to try it.

So Naoki turned around and found King Lei Guan and told him his worries.

After hearing this, King Lei Guan didn't say anything, but just went to say a few words to Ling Youma.

Then Naoki saw Reiyouma taking off the trophy and gave it to King Lei Guan for safekeeping.

"It's no problem anymore." Lei Guanwang said to Naoki after accepting the trophy.

"That's good." Naoki made another detailed inspection of Linyouma's skull and breathed a sigh of relief after confirming that it was not deformed by the trophy.

Saying goodbye to Linyouma and Snowstorm Horse, Naoki went to the reverse world again and came under the World Tree.

He found the tropical dragon that had been unable to fly due to wing injuries last winter and asked about its plans.

"It's spring now. The snow outside has melted and everything is beginning to recover. What are your plans next? Do you want to go back to the Cauldron Lake to join your companions, or do you plan to stay here at the ranch?"

The tropical dragon raised its head high and let out a melodious cry: "Oh~!"

Naoki: "Do you want to stay and live with us?"

Tropical Dragon nodded and said happily: "Oh!"

"Very good." Naoki smiled slightly: "Then please take care of me from now on, Tropical Dragon!"

"Oh woo~"

While talking, Naoki noticed that the banana fruit on the tropical dragon's neck had grown again.

If he remembered correctly, Tropical Dragon picked all the fruits in December.

Logically speaking, the next batch of banana fruits needs to wait until summer to be harvested.

But now the spring harvest comes. "Is it because the fried bananas accelerate? Or is it because the long-term stay here with the World Tree has sufficient natural energy to accelerate the growth of bananas?" Naoki murmured.

If you look at it this way, the fruit growth cycle of Tropical Dragon will change from two fruits a year to six or seven fruits a year.

Coupled with its [harvest] characteristic, you may be able to harvest a lot of banana fruits at one time, which means it will ripen once a month.

"It's a pity that the effect of the sacred steamed buns made from the feathers of the Ho-Oh has no effect on tropical dragons." Naoki thought to himself.

[Holy blessing, after the Pokémon eats it, it will be favored by the Phoenix King, and its luck will be greatly improved↑. This effect only takes effect on Mew, Baby Bear, and Lightning Bird. 】

This effect is equivalent to the artificial Tian'en characteristic. If it is also effective on tropical dragons, it may be able to trigger its harvesting characteristic 100% and harvest double banana fruits at one time.

However, the divine blessing is only valid for members of the Heroic Expedition Team who have been appointed by King Phoenix.

But people always have to feel content. Compared with the two crops a year at the beginning, it is already very good now, isn't it?
Naoki reached out and touched the tropical dragon's head. As the weather gradually warmed up, the mount goat and Oliva had left the reverse world and went to live outside.

The Heroes expedition team also continued their journey.

The Tropical Dragon Pokémon was a little bored here, so it followed Naoki outside.

Zhishu placed it by the river, where there is ample water and sunshine, which is very suitable for tropical dragons to live.

When the World Tree is fully grown later, he will build a nest for the tropical dragon on it.

After placing the tropical dragon, Zhishu went to the apple orchard on the other side of the river.

Thanks to the cultivation of the mount goat, the apple sapling he planted before has fully grown, and now it has grown red apples.

With this head and color, it is not inferior even to the apples from Beishang Township.

Naoki picked an apple and took a bite.

The next second, the sweet pulp burst into full juices in his mouth.

"Well, it tastes sweet and crispy, not bad!"

Naoki nodded with satisfaction.

In addition to these red apples, there are still some apples that are still green.

Naoki plans to pick again in two days.

Walking in the apple orchard, looking at the apples all over the garden, Zhishu suddenly felt worried.

These apples won't attract fruit-gnawing insects, right?

Fruit Gnawer, an Apple-dwelling Pokémon, is a Grass-type and Dragon-type Pokémon.

This Pokémon specializes in eating apples. It will hide in apples as soon as it is born and grow while eating the pulp. It usually uses apples to disguise itself.

For farmers, fruit-gnawing bugs normally harm orchards and are harmful Pokémon.

If you encounter a greedy fruit-gnawing insect, you might be able to eat up all the apples in the garden.

But things are not absolute.

At this time, if you encounter fruit-gnawing bugs with the [ripe] characteristic, not only will they not eat up the apples, but they will also accelerate the growth of the apples and make the apples mature faster.

And after the fruit-gnawing worm evolves into an apple-wrapped dragon or a honey-filled dragon, the [ripening] efficiency will be greatly improved.

It is said that in the remote Galar region, many fruit farmers raise Pokémon like fruit-gnawing worms to help apples ripen.

Thinking of this, Zhi Shuzai walked around the apple orchard carefully, intending to see if there were any fruit-gnawing insects that had sneaked into his apples to eat the pulp.

For identifying apples, his golden finger can play a big role.

Looking around, the detailed information of almost every apple is like this:
[Apple: An ordinary fruit, sweet and delicious, with a crisp and refreshing taste. Because it was cultivated by goats during the growth process, its quality has been greatly improved. It has great nutritional value and can be used to make dishes. 】

If you encounter an apple occupied by fruit-gnawing worms, no detailed information will appear.

Because apples at that time could no longer be used as food.

After careful inspection, Naoki was sure that no fruit-gnawing insects had entered his apple orchard.

This made Naoki feel a little disappointed.

He also quite likes the plump dragon that evolved from a fruit-gnawing insect.

If he has Fengmi Dragon, he can plant an apple orchard on the World Tree later and let Fengmi Dragon take care of it.

After thinking about it for a while, Zhi Shu was about to go home and use his Rotom phone to search for Pokémon such as Fruit Gnaw and Pymosaurus on the Internet to see their habitats, and then tame a few with mature characteristics and return to the ranch to take care of them. apple orchard.

But at this moment, the sky suddenly darkened.

Naoki looked up and saw Rayquaza's huge figure slowly descending into the pasture.

Naoki was stunned for a moment, then realized something and turned to look at Kirby Park.

As expected, we saw Kuailosaurus, Motorized Lizard, and Erguitun there. This time, even the Eevee and the mini dragons also ran over to join in the fun.

Seemingly shocked by Rayquaza's majestic figure, the Eevees and the mini-dragons all showed admiration in their eyes.

Kuailong started inviting Rayquaza to the ranch again...

Well, the biscuits and poffins that he and his sister had just prepared yesterday were about to be eaten up by Rayquaza, the big eater.

Naoki suddenly felt a headache, but Kuailuu and Erguifen were entertaining Rayquaza with Poffin, and he couldn't stop him. It would be too rude to prevent Rayquaza from eating.

"Ugh."

Naoki could only accept his fate, let out a sigh, and prepared to go home to see how much Baofen was left.

He returned to the living room and was checking the ingredients in the cupboard when he suddenly received a video call from Baby Bear and Dream.

Naoki was slightly surprised, and then quickly pressed the answer button.

The next second, the three Pokémon from the Heroes Expedition appeared on the phone screen.

Naoki noticed the background behind them, which seemed to be a forest.

"It seems that you have successfully arrived at your destination." Naoki said with a smile.

Baby Bear looked very happy: "One, one, one!"

Its words were automatically translated by Rotom using electronic sounds.

Baby Bear: "That's right! There are a lot of Pokémon we haven't seen in this place!"

Dream: "We just helped a long-winged gull that was lost in the forest find its trainer!"

"Long-winged gull?" Zhi Shu was a little surprised.

Mew and Baby Bear nodded repeatedly, and they turned the screen so that Naoki could clearly see the strange Pokémon around him.

The snake bear in the grass, the coyote dog in the clearing, the hunting swallowtail butterfly flying in the woods, the proud swallow staying on the branch...

Looking at the familiar Pokémon on the screen, Naoki's heart moved.

Could it be that the place where the Heroes Expedition team ventured this time was the Hoenn region? !
