Monster Hunter: Farm Story Begins with Pokémon

Chapter 460 A visit one month later
I changed into new clothes and went downstairs. Huoya had already heated up the food for me.

Bai Zhen was already extremely hungry at this moment, so he started eating immediately after sitting down.

During the meal, Bai Zhen talked to Huo Ya in detail about what had happened during this period.

Hearing that the farm and Yanhuo Village had been developing smoothly in the past month, Bai Zhen knew how hard Huoya and Shuiyun had worked during this period.

Bai Zhen was thinking about how to compensate the two of them.

Huoya looked hesitant, as if she had done something wrong.

Bai Zhen keenly noticed that something was wrong with Huoya: "What's wrong with you? Is there something wrong with the farm?"

I just heard from Huoya that everything is fine on the farm.

Could it be that there is a problem with the battle pet or the Felynn?
Bai Zhen's heart tightened.

"I do have something to apologize to you for." Huoya stood up, took the letter from the Fire Country and apologized to Bai Zhen, "I'm sorry, I didn't keep an eye on Xie Mi before, and she accidentally opened the letter. I didn't read the contents."

"Letter?" Bai Zhen thought it was some big deal, but it turned out to be just a letter.

During the time he was asleep, he gave Huoya the power to handle all his letters.

Even though Huoya got into trouble for replying to his letter, Bai Zhen didn't care at all.

Not to mention that Huoya would never do such a thing.

Bai Zhen didn't take it seriously. He didn't even put down the dishes in his hands and comforted Huo Ya: "I won't blame you for such a small matter, just help me deal with it.

Huoya handed the envelope to Bai Zhen and said, "This letter is from the Fire Country. If I'm not mistaken, it should be the letter sent by Princess Lingling."

"Lingling?" Bai Zhen looked at the letter in Huoya's hand in surprise. He wiped his hands with paper and took the letter from Huoya. He muttered in confusion, "Why did Her Royal Highness the Princess write to me?"

Huoya: "I don't know either. Maybe I've encountered some difficulties and want to ask for your help?"

"How is that possible? If she was really in trouble, she would have called for Rayquaza a long time ago. I guess it should be an invitation to her wedding or something? Or an invitation for us to go to the Fire Country for a hot spring bath or something."

The miko-con Rayquaza had given Lingling a chance to summon him a long time ago. If Lingling really encountered difficulties that could not be solved, she would definitely summon Rayquaza.

And she wrote a letter to herself at this time, most likely talking about the hot spring experience she had some time ago.

When Bai Zhen left the Fire Kingdom, Lingling invited him to take Huoya and Shuiyun to the Fire Kingdom to take a hot spring bath, saying that it would increase the success rate of the confession.

But after Bai Zhen came back that day, he and Huo Ya became boyfriend and girlfriend. If they went to the Fire Kingdom to take a hot spring bath again, it would only be for vacation.

Bai Zhen pulled out the letter, which had the familiar scent of rouge perfume. There was no doubt that the letter was written by Lingling.

There were three sheets of letter paper in total, with a lot of content written on them.

Bai Zhen quickly scanned the contents of the letter.

Bai Zhen was too lazy to read the entire page of greetings and simply skipped it.

Turn to the second page to find the substantive content.

As Bai Zhen guessed, Lingling wrote this letter to invite him to go to the Fire Kingdom for a hot spring vacation.

The letter on page three also contains other content.

Huoya paid close attention to Bai Zhen's expression. Seeing that Bai Zhen didn't show any change in expression after reading the letter, she asked Bai Zhen, "What's in the letter?"

“Nothing important.”

After reading the letter, Bai Zhen handed it to Huoya and asked Huoya to read it herself.

After getting Bai Zhen's permission, Huo Ya took the letter and read its contents in detail.

Huoya noticed something unusual after reading the greeting on the first page.

"This Princess Lingling really likes Bai Zhen."

Although these were just some very simple greetings, which were the standard format for writing letters, Huoya could see the girl's thoughts from the words.

Huoya didn't expect to see her own story on the second page.

Seeing that Her Royal Highness the Princess wanted to invite herself and Shui Yun to go to the Fire Kingdom together, Huo Ya smelled some gunpowder.

"Are you planning to swear an oath of sovereignty to me?"

Huoya felt a little dissatisfied. She continued to read the letter. When she read the third page, she couldn't help but be a little surprised.

The content of the third page was very simple. It said that around the beginning of March, she was going to come to Yanhuo Village in person to study the attribute theory. She hoped that Bai Zhen could help her introduce her so that she could have a face-to-face talk with the doctor.

It's not surprising that Lingling didn't know that it was Bai Zhen who proposed the attribute theory.

When Bai Zhen proposed the attribute theory, he asked the Hunter Guild not to publicize his name. In addition, the Fire Country is far away from Yanhuo Village, so it is normal that Her Royal Highness the Princess does not know who proposed the attribute theory.

Huoya finished reading the letter and confirmed in surprise, "Will Her Royal Highness the Princess really come to our Yanhuo Village in early March?"

Bai Zhen hesitated for a moment, then nodded and said, "Based on my understanding of that girl, she is the kind of person who does what she says. Even if her father disagrees, she will sneak out on her own, right?"

Huoya looked at the letter in her hand in silence.

Things were more serious than she had imagined. The princess had come with ill intentions this time, and she was a powerful enemy that could not be ignored.

Just by looking at the wording of the letter and other factors, Huoya could roughly tell what kind of personality the princess had, and what position Bai Zhen held in her heart.

Huoya hesitated for a moment.

If Bai Zhen really liked that princess, she wouldn't mind Bai Zhen marrying another one.

Anyway, there is not much difference between two and three, and judging from the letter, Her Royal Highness the Princess is not the kind of person who is difficult to get along with.

Huoya put the letter away carefully. She asked Bai Zhen, "The princess will come to visit us in a month. Should we make any preparations?"

"Prepare? Emm." Bai Zhen thought for a moment, "We don't need to prepare anything in particular. She isn't the kind of person who particularly cares about formalities. But we still have to follow the basic etiquette of receiving a princess. After all, we may have to do business with the Fire Nation in the future. With Lingling's help and a few words, we can go much more smoothly."

Huoya heard Bai Zhen's tone and knew that Bai Zhen seemed unaware of the princess's real purpose for coming to Yanhuo Village.

She came to Yanhuo Village not to learn attribute theory, but to meet Bai Zhen.

Huoya had expected Bai Zhen not to notice it. If Bai Zhen was so sensitive, she wouldn't have had to work so hard in the past.

Huoya asked: "Do you like that princess?"

Bai Zhen was stunned. After considering the context, he thought Huo Ya was asking about Ling Ling's personality in order to decide what level of reception to use.

Bai Zhen replied: "She is not the kind of scheming person. I think you will definitely like her if you meet her. She is easy to get along with."

There was nothing wrong with this, but it sounded a little different to Huoya. After Huoya heard it, she already had the answer in her mind.

At night, after dinner, at two o'clock in the morning, Bai Zhen prepared to go out into the wild to try out his specific changes.

He asked Huoya to be his sparring partner.

On the beach of the island, Huoya and Bai Zhen both put on full protective gear and started fighting.

Bai Zhen instantly used water jet to approach the fire sprout.

The extremely fast speed shocked Huoya.

It’s not that she has never seen Bai Zhen use water jets before, on the contrary, she has seen it many times, but compared to before, Bai Zhen’s speed is even faster!
Could it be that during the period of sleep, the level of his own moves was improved again?
Huoya didn't have time to think about it, she tightened the silk thread in her hand, and the reinforced spider silk suddenly blocked Bai Zhen's way.

Bai Zhen broke through the seventh or eighth layers of spider silk defense in just a few tenths of a second, but at the tenth layer, his charging speed dropped significantly.

Bai Zhen switched the stone tablet in his body to ghost attribute.

The silk thread with physical collision volume could no longer stop Bai Zhen, and Bai Zhen rushed towards Huo Ya at a faster speed.

Huoya had expected this.

The moment Bai Zhen rushed in, a large number of fox fire bubbles rose up, and the violent flame explosion blocked Bai Zhen's steps.

This flame was enough to stop Bai Zhen.

But at the moment when the fire bud relaxed, Bai Zhen rushed out of the blue ghost fire without any difficulty.

Huoya took a closer look and found that Bai Zhen had switched to the dual slate attributes of fire + water in a very short time.

Bai Zhen can almost ignore the fire damage of Fox Fire Bubble.

At such a close distance, Huoya seemed to have no way to dodge.

But the next second, Huoya's body suddenly retreated backwards in violation of the laws of physics, avoiding Bai Zhen's attack.

Bai Zhen looked behind Huoya and saw a servant using its spider silk to pull Huoya away.

Bai Zhen wanted to chase after it, but a green hedgehog was suddenly thrown in front of him. Caught off guard, the green hedgehog used flash.

This is Huoya's servant transforming into Shemmy and using Flash.

Bai Zhen was temporarily blinded and lost Huoya's position, and Huoya activated her own enhanced skill - Queen's Secret.

Huoya drew her bow and used her dragon arrow to launch a long-range attack on Bai Zhen from a distance.

Even if Bai Zhen wanted to determine the position by listening to the sound, he couldn't do it because the dragon arrow could turn in the air and was very difficult to defend against.

Bai Zhen also directly activated his [Extremely Super Electrified State] and used the Ten Thousand Jun Thunder Waterfall in a large area around him.

This is a big move inherited from the Thunder Wolf Dragon and upgraded. This move can release strong lightning in all directions.

The indiscriminate lightning attack made Huoya find it difficult to resist.

She used the Storm of Attachment to fight against the Thunder Falls, consuming most of the power of thunder and lightning.

Huoya put all her energy into fighting Bai Zhen.

The battle between the two lasted about three minutes and ended with Bai Zhen's victory.

On the beach, Bai Zhen threw Huo Ya to the ground. Bai Zhen supported himself on the beach with both hands. He removed his protective gear and looked at Huo Ya, who was sweating under him. He smiled and said, "It seems that I won."

Huoya smiled, and she naturally stroked Bai Zhen's cheeks with her hands, feeling genuinely happy for Bai Zhen.

"Congratulations~ You have become much stronger~ It seems that you can graduate from me completely~"

Bai Zhen didn't think so. He said, "We still have a long way to go before graduation. In terms of martial arts, I still can't gain any advantage over you. Besides, you didn't even use poison in this battle. If you had used it, I would have been defeated a long time ago."

"You haven't used the full power of the Crystallization and the Slate, have you? If you had, I wouldn't have had any chance at all, and..."

Bai Zhen was puzzled: "And?"

Huoya chuckled, she put her arms around Bai Zhen's neck and said softly, "I can't bear to let the man I love the most be poisoned and suffer."

Bomb traps and fire have very little damage to Bai Zhen, but if Bai Zhen is poisoned, that would be really painful.

Bai Zhenxin's heartbeat quickened dramatically, and the fire buds looked so beautiful under the moonlight.

Bai Zhen couldn't help but lean over and kiss his lover. After being intimate on the beach for a long time, Bai Zhen finally let go of Huo Ya.

Bai Zhen was lying on his back on the beach, Huo Ya's head was resting on Bai Zhen's chest, with a happy smile on her face.

After a while, Huoya asked Bai Zhen: "Why do I feel that your skill release speed has become much faster this time? Is it the effect of the blood of the ancient dragon?"

“Can you feel it?”

"Of course. I was really frightened. You sneaked up on me several times."

"Haha, there are indeed changes. Now I feel like everything in my body has merged into one."

Before, Bai Zhen mastered a large number of skills and moves, which felt a bit like stuffing a lot of water balls into a bottle.

These skills can coexist in Bai Zhen's body, but there is no way to merge them.

Now that he had obtained the blood of the ancient dragon and had evolved his life level, all the water balls in the bottle had been opened, and these 'skills' were more harmoniously interdependent within the body than before.

In addition, the biggest change and the one that has the most profound impact on the battle is probably Bai Zhen’s feeling when fighting.

If Bai Zhen's previous battles were like playing games with a controller, now it's like Bai Zhen's consciousness has entered the virtual world and he can personally control the character's battles.

To put it simply, this feeling is that in the past, he needed a little time to react in battle, but now he can use his skills as easily as using his own arms.

With just a few gestures, he was able to use his skills and the whole process became extremely smooth.

Bai Zhen said: "I have really made a huge improvement now. Besides, I feel like I have endless energy now."

The biggest change that the ancient dragon's blood brought to Bai Zhen was his lifespan.

Now Bai Zhen has a lifespan similar to that of Gu Long, so living for thousands of years is not a problem at all.

Huoya felt relieved when she heard this: "In this case, I can let you go to the Alola region with more confidence."

Now it is February, and Bai Zhen is about to set off to the Alola region to look for the Emerald Slate.
