Monster Hunter: Farm Story Begins with Pokémon

Chapter 4 Properties PLUS
  Bai Zhen felt extremely happy after successfully taming his first Pokémon.

At the same time, an unusual sound appeared in his mind.

[Complete the special mission—conquer the first partner]

[Task reward: 5 monster capture balls (already distributed)]

[Task evaluation: The collision of souls bursts out with hot light, go and meet more partners! 】

Bai Zhen is not in the mood to check the reward he just received.

He came to the fruit tree that Tan Xiaoshi was guarding before.

It was because of this fruit tree that he became connected with Tan Xiaoshi.

Bai Zhen said to Mr. Tan, "Servant Tan, help me pick two fruits."

Tan Xiaoshi jumped onto the fruit tree and helped Bai Zhen pick two fruits.

As soon as he got the fruit, the relevant introduction appeared in Bai Zhen's mind.

[Special attack fruit Lv1 (D+ grade ingredient) - is one of the main raw materials of nutritional drinks. Taking it directly can permanently increase the special attack attribute by 1 point. A single individual above level 1 can take up to 10 Lv.1 special attack fruits. If cooked into food, the food may have the effect of strengthening special attacks. 】

In previous games, Pokémon had effort points. Each Pokémon could obtain up to 252 effort points for a single ability, and the total effort points corresponding to all abilities did not exceed 510 points.

Calculated according to the formula for calculating attribute points based on effort value.

100级的宝可梦，在获得满510的努力值时，增加的总属性值比0努力值100级的宝可梦高出127点。

But in reality, there seems to be no division of effort points, and the nutritional drinks sold in stores do not increase the Pokémon's effort points, but directly increase the Pokémon's attribute points.

Naturally, other people cannot see the detailed data of Pokémon.

Bai Zhen learned from the memory analysis of the original body that nutritional drinks also have drinking restrictions.

"It is really powerful to directly and permanently increase the special attack attribute by 1 point."

Bai Zhen counted the fruits on the tree carefully. A ten-meter-high fruit tree only had 11 fruits.

"Tan Xiaoshi, you have already eaten 10 of these fruits, right?"

Tan Xiaoshi has been living nearby for many years, and he has always stayed by this fruit tree.

Tan Xiaoshi nodded.

When he first ate this fruit, he would feel that his strength had been strengthened, but as he ate more and more, his body no longer had the initial sense of gain.

If you look carefully at Tan Xiaoshi's special attack, you can see that his special attack attribute is obviously higher than other attributes.

"Since it has no effect on you, let me perform a magic trick for you."

Bai Zhen held a special attack fruit in his left and right hands, and then a voice appeared in his mind.

[The fusion success rate is 30%. Do you want to fuse? 】

Bai Zhen chose yes.

The light flashed, and this time I was lucky and the fusion was completed in one go.

The special attack fruit on Bai Zhen's left hand was like a deflated rubber ball. In the blink of an eye, only the dry outer skin was left, while the special attack fruit on the other hand expanded at an alarming speed. Even the fruit wrapped in the pulp The outer skin looks juicy.

Bai Zhen got a brand new special attack result.

[Special Attack Fruit Lv.2 (C-level ingredient): A fruit with more powerful power. Taking it directly can permanently increase the special attack attribute by 1 point. A single individual above level 10 can consume up to 10 Lv.2 special attack fruits. If ingredients are made into dishes, the dishes may have the effect of strengthening special attacks. 】

Tan Xiaoshi rubbed his eyes and looked at the two completely transformed fruits in Bai Zhen's hands in disbelief.

Bai Zhen handed the fruit to Tan Xiaoshi and said, "Try it."

Tan Xiaoshi took a bite of the fruit with suspicion. As soon as the pulp was in his stomach, he felt the same sense of gain he once had.

After a special attack fruit was eaten, there was only one remaining core.

Tan Xiaoshi looked at Bai Zhen curiously and wanted to ask how Bai Zhen did it.

Bai Zhen did not give a detailed explanation. He asked Tan Xiaoshi to pick the remaining 9 fruits on the tree.

Holding two fruits again, Bai Zhen tried to fuse them.

[The fusion success rate is 32%. Do you want to fuse? 】

Because it has already been fused once, the success rate of fusion has increased slightly.

Bai Zhen's choice was that he was not so lucky this time, and the two special attack fruits exploded directly in his hand.

The probability of 32% is indeed very low.

Bai Zhen was not discouraged and continued to pick up two brand new fruits.

The success rate of fusion only increases when it succeeds, not when it fails.

Bai Zhen tried again and again, and finally succeeded three times and failed twice.

From a probability perspective, the luck of this fusion is very good.

After fusing five times, Bai Zhen felt dizzy and fell to the ground.

"Whoa?"

Tan Xiaoshi asked Bai Zhen concernedly, asking if it was the sequelae left over from the previous battle.

Bai Zhen waved his hand and said, "Don't worry, this is just the price of my ability." The ability of the material synthesis platform does not come without any price.

The triggering of the synthesis platform will consume Bai Zhen's mental power according to the preciousness of the materials.

When his mental energy is exhausted, Bai Zhen will show symptoms such as depression, headache, and dizziness. If it is more severe, he will vomit or even fall into coma.

"You should eat the remaining two special attack fruits first." Bai Zhen handed the two special attack fruits to Tan Xiaoshi.

After Tan Xiaoshi finished eating the special attack fruit, Bai Zhen checked Tan Xiaoshi's attribute panel.

The original 33 attribute points have now been increased to 36 points.

"Give me the seed, alas."

The negative effects of mental exhaustion were revealed. It was only four o'clock in the afternoon, but he had already entered the state of suppressing the clouds in advance.

This was the first time that Tan Xiaoshi saw Bai Zhen in this state. He thought it was because he ate three precious special attack fruits that Bai Zhen was in a bad mood.

He quickly brought the other remaining special attack fruit that had not been fused and gave it to Bai Zhen.

Yan said there was one more fruit here and he didn't have to be so frustrated. If it wasn't enough, he could go out and search for the same fruit and help find as many as he wanted.

Bai Zhen declined Tan Xiaoshi's kindness, but at the same time he was extremely moved in his heart.

What a kind and good companion.

"This is normal for me, don't take it to heart."

Bai Zhen twisted an attribute fruit seed, and relevant information emerged in his mind.

【特攻果Lv.2种子——成熟时间230天；事宜生长温度12度~24度；喜阳，对土壤的肥力有着极高的要求，不需要催芽；成活率60%。】

The year-round temperature in the Padia region is around 9 to 23 degrees, and both sunlight and precipitation are equally abundant.

It is very suitable to plant special attack fruits here.

Bai Zhen looked around at the barren land around him. From the introduction of the seeds, it could be seen that this barren land was all caused by this fruit tree.

It absorbs all the nutrients from the surrounding earth.

Bai Zhen shook his head toward the void, and the all-purpose tool transformed into an ordinary hoe.

Bai Zhen made an estimate in his mind.

It shouldn't take long to plow and hoe all this small area.

When he thought of this, Bai Zhen suddenly felt helpless holding the hoe.

"How about we do it tomorrow?"

As soon as the thought came to his mind, Bai Zhen saw Tan Xiaoshi looking at him with concern.

I finally conquered my first partner today, how could I say such depressing words?
  If these seeds could be planted one day earlier, Tan Xiaoshi could be promoted faster.

Bai Zhen finally cheered up again.

Start plowing the land with a hoe.

With the attribute of [100% labor saving], these barren lands are as soft as butter.

In addition, the universal tool also has the attribute of [the tool gains special bonus].

A universal tool that transforms into a hoe, with the independent bonus of [Fertility MAX].

As long as the ground is hoeed with this hoe, it will directly return to the best planting state.

It only took Bai Zhen almost half an hour to finish hoeing.

The ground that had been hoeed by the universal tool turned into black soil with silver stars shining on it.

During the half hour of farming, Bai Zhen recovered some of his mental strength because he was doing what he liked to do, and finally he no longer felt depressed.

He planted three seeds 10 meters apart.

Bai Zhen prayed silently in his heart, hoping that these three seeds could successfully win a 60% survival rate.

After burying the seeds, Bai Zhen transformed the universal tool into a green elephant watering can.

When I came to the beach and filled a pot of seawater, the light of the watering can flashed, and the seawater with high salt content was instantly purified and turned into the best irrigation water.

Just like the hoe getting [Fertility MAX], the watering can also has its own bonus [Purification MAX].

Any water quality entering this pot can be purified into pure water full of soil nutrients.

After pouring water on the three seeds and the fruit tree, Bai Zhen looked up at the 10-meter-tall fruit tree.

After some cultivation by him, the fruiting time of this tree was also increased by 1000%.

Fruit trees that originally took 200 days to bear fruit can now bear fruit once every 20 days.

It should be producing new fruit again soon.

I don’t know if my special attack attribute has been improved, will my mental power also be improved?

Really looking forward to it
  Bai Zhen put away the tools and took the only remaining special attack fruit. Bai Zhen smiled and said to Tan Xiaoshi: "Let's go home."
