Gourmet master of the Pokemon world

Chapter 83: Jackpot!

After the sparring match, Anji and the professors left the banquet hall together.

During the subsequent chat, the professors asked Anji many questions about Diancie, which Anji answered one by one. Anji even gifted the two professors a Diancie diamond.

Although the diamond wouldn't last long, the two professors were still very happy.

Professor Augustine Sycamore asked, "By the way, Azoth's research team will be going to Paldea with us in a few days. Would Prince Anji like to come with us to Paldea and take a look?"

The two professors were still very interested in how Anji had lived from five hundred years ago to the present, and how Diancie was born.

Anji originally wanted to refuse; he was busy making money, and there were a lot of things to do on the Nibel Plateau, so he didn't have time at all.

However, at this moment, Diancie gently tugged at Anji, and a pop-up window immediately appeared in front of Anji.

【Preliminary Task】Accept the invitation of the two professors and visit the Great Crater of Paldea. Accept or decline?

Yes

No

After reading the task content, Anji fell into deep thought. Preliminary task... that means there are follow-up tasks! The rewards for this kind of task are either very rich or very important.

Should I... accept it?

Thinking like this, Anji directly clicked accept.

Seeing Anji in a daze, Professor Turo said, "Prince Anji probably hasn't been to the Paldea region, right? Our Paldea has many wonders and Pokémon that Kalos doesn't have. Your Highness can go and see."

Anji smiled and said, "Since the two professors have invited me so sincerely, then I will accept your kind offer!"

Professors Augustine Sycamore and Turo were both very happy to hear this, "I believe Your Highness will definitely like Paldea."

Anji chatted with the two professors for a long time, until 12:00 at night when he rode Honchkrow away from the palace.

The Azoth Kingdom was still brightly lit in the middle of the night. Anji, riding on Honchkrow's back, overlooked the entire city against the cold wind.

It had been a long time since he had seen the night view of a prosperous city, and he couldn't help but feel a little emotional.

With Honchkrow's speed, Anji arrived at Snorlax's home in a short while. After landing, he suddenly heard bursts of cries not far away.

"Who is it so late at night?"

Anji took Honchkrow and followed the sound, and soon found the alley where Oddish and others lived.

In the darkness, a row of bird-type Pokémon stood on the wall. Anji could only vaguely see their outlines, but their eyes, twinkling with scarlet light, were extremely obvious in the night.

These bird-type Pokémon were all staring at the wooden house below, where Oddish and others lived.

It's Murkrow! Anji instantly recognized the identities of these bird-type Pokémon.

"Murkrow!"

Suddenly, under the command of one of the Murkrow, all the other Murkrow swooped down, using their sharp beaks and claws to attack the wooden house.

Living in the city for a long time, these Murkrow knew one truth: don't go against the master of this city—humans. Run when you encounter them.

Just then, Honchkrow, standing beside Anji, let out a sharp cry, and all the Murkrow, who were planning to escape, froze in mid-air.

Just kidding, with Honchkrow here, how dare a group of you Murkrow rebel?

"Caw!"

Honchkrow cried again, and the Murkrow immediately looked dejected and fell from the sky, landing beside Honchkrow, not daring to resist in the slightest.

This has to do with the group status and social relationship between Honchkrow and Murkrow. In the eyes of Murkrow, Honchkrow's status is absolute and cannot be resisted.

At this time, Oddish, Shroomish, and Paras, hearing the noise, came out to check the situation. In the darkness, they couldn't see who was coming.

Anji said, "Oddish, Shroomish, Paras, it's me!"

"Odi!"

"Shroom!"

"Para!"

The six Pokémon were overjoyed to hear Anji's voice and ran to Anji's feet, their faces full of grievance.

Anji squatted down and asked, "What's wrong? Why are the Murkrow bullying you?"

The six Pokémon immediately started complaining at the same time.

It turned out that the Murkrow had come to snatch food!

The food that Anji gave to Oddish and others, Oddish and others often ate half and left half. Over time, they were targeted by a group of Murkrow.

The Murkrow often came to harass them in the middle of the night, disturbing their peace and forcing them to hand over food.

Anji guessed for a while before he figured out the whole story.

"Is that so?" Anji looked at the Murkrow and asked.

"Caw!" Honchkrow also cried out along with Anji.

The Murkrow lowered their heads and dared not speak.

"Goo ~ ~ ~"

At this time, the sound of a rumbling stomach came. One of the Murkrow was covering its stomach, on the verge of tears.

"Caw ~ Caw ~"

At this moment, Honchkrow suddenly cried to Anji a few times.

"You mean... you want to take these Murkrow back to Nibel Plateau?" Anji asked, guessing.

"Caw ~ Caw ~" Honchkrow nodded.

Anji then remembered that Honchkrow and Murkrow are both gregarious Pokémon. Wild Honchkrow are generally surrounded by a large number of Murkrow, who are regarded as Honchkrow's followers, working for Honchkrow, while Honchkrow only needs to be comfortable and lazy.

This Honchkrow on the Nibel Plateau has been alone since Anji met it. Could it be that it also wants to live a lazy life?

"It's okay." Anji said, "But you have to take care of them. They can't cause trouble on the Nibel Plateau."

He himself wanted to live a lazy life, of course, he would not stop Honchkrow from pursuing happiness.

"Caw ~ ~" Honchkrow confidently patted its chest with its wings, and then glared at the Murkrow. Cause trouble? How dare they!

The Murkrow shrank their heads like quails when Honchkrow glared at them.

"Then let's go home." Anji got up and said.

Honchkrow nodded, flapped its wings and flew up, signaling the Murkrow to follow.

Anji had just lifted his foot to leave when he suddenly stopped. He turned his head to look at Oddish, Shroomish, and Paras and asked, "Do you want to come with me too? I will provide you with work, you work for me, and I will give you food."

"Odi!"

"Shroom!"

"Para!"

The six Pokémon were overjoyed when they heard this, jumping and hopping. They were already very familiar with Anji and naturally would not doubt his words.

Seeing them agree, Anji smiled and said, "Okay, come with me."

Hearing this, Oddish and others hurriedly ran back to the wooden house to bring their collections, but Anji quickly said, "Okay, you don't need those. I'll get you new ones later."

"Odi?"

The Oddish tilted its head, looking at the wooden house with a distressed expression, clearly reluctant to part with the things it had worked so hard to save.

Honchkrow descended from the sky, flapped its wings, directly scooped up the six little ones, tossed them onto its back, and flew away with them.

Ange smiled and shook his head, opened the door of the Snorlax House, and led the group of Pokémon inside.

Passing through the space tunnel, they returned to their home in the Nibel Plateau.

As soon as they got home, Honchkrow led a flock of Murkrow and flew away with a whoosh.

Diancie and the others at home hadn't gone to sleep yet. Diancie and Drizzile were sitting on the sofa, one watching a show and the other playing a game, waiting for Ange to return.

The Snorlax was hugging a Komala and curled up in a corner of the sofa, snoring away, with a snot bubble hanging from its nose.

The Oddish and the others nervously followed behind Ange, cautiously looking around, appearing very uneasy.

Diancie saw them and asked, "Where did these little guys come from?"

Ange grinned and replied, "Found them."

"Oh ~" Diancie sighed helplessly.

Ange said, "You take Snorlax and the others to wash up and go to sleep first. No training today, it's too late. I'll take them to get settled."

"Okay."

Diancie nodded.

Then Ange took the Oddish and the others to the Secret Fortress. Most of the Pokémon were already asleep at this time, but Braixen hadn't slept yet. It came out to check the situation after hearing the noise.

Ange smiled and introduced them to it: "These are Oddish, Shroomish, and Paras. They will also be members of the Nibel Plateau from now on. Please take care of them."

"Mahou ~"

Braixen nodded, and then enthusiastically led the six Pokémon to choose rooms. With Braixen's comfort, they didn't look so uneasy.

As one of the guardians of the Nibel Plateau, the gentle Braixen was very good at comforting Pokémon.

The six Pokémon originally lived together, so after coming to the Nibel Plateau, they still chose to live together.

After they chose their rooms, Ange took out a can of Pokémon food for them.

"Eat something and go to sleep. Tomorrow, Braixen will take you to meet everyone and then work with them.

Everyone on the Nibel Plateau is very kind. You don't have to worry about anything."

"Mahou ~ Mahou ~" That's right, with me here, you don't have to worry about anything.

Braixen echoed Ange, and said gently to the six Pokémon.

"Na jou ~"

"Kino ~"

"Para ~"

The six Pokémon nodded.

After Ange and Braixen left, the six Pokémon had a delicious meal, and then snuggled together and fell into a deep sleep.

Because of the Murkrow's harassment, they had been on edge all night, and were already mentally exhausted.

In their dreams, the six Pokémon couldn't help but show a smile on their faces, a yearning for the future.

After Ange returned home, Diancie and the others were indeed already asleep, so he quickly washed up and climbed into bed.

But before going to sleep, he had to claim the quest rewards first.

First, claim the daily quest rewards. Because there was no special training tonight, there was only one daily quest reward.

Congratulations, Master, you have received the reward: Individual Value + 1.

Ange didn't expect the daily quest reward to be so good, and sat up straight in excitement. Although it was only 1 point, it was much better than sending a cucumber or a fruit every day.

Without hesitation, Ange added this point to Snorlax's Attack.

Snorlax's data is as follows:

Snorlax

[Attribute] Normal

[Characteristic] Thick Fat

[Gender] Male

[Level] 38

[Skills] Tackle, Lick, Defense Curl, Recycle, Covet, Bite, Stockpile, Swallow, Body Slam, Fling, Amnesia, Take Down, Charm, Seed Bomb, Brick Break, Double Team.

[Individual Values]

HP: 29

Defense: 20

Special Attack: 31

Special Defense: 10

Speed: 31

Next is the reward for the new quest completed today.

Congratulations, Master, for completing the [Prerequisite Quest] Accepting the invitation of two professors to visit the Paldea Great Crater. Reward: Tera Jewel 1, Constitution + 1, Intelligence + 1.

??? Tera Jewel? I just saw Terastallization today, and now I'm getting a Tera Jewel?

After claiming the reward, a purple jewel appeared in Ange's hand.

However, this Tera Jewel doesn't seem to be charged. If it's not charged, it can't be used. Ange was a little disappointed and put the Tera Jewel back into his space backpack.

Let's take a look at his personal data.

Ange

Race: Human

Gender: Male

Age: 16 (+ 500)

Constitution: 36

Intelligence: 18

Cooking Evaluation: A cooking newbie who has just passed the test.

I've become stronger again, awesome! Ange clenched his fist, and indeed felt that his strength had increased, so he happily burrowed into the quilt and quickly fell into a dream.

The next day, Ange received a call from Flamell, it turned out that the materials he had asked Flamell to collect for making fertilizer had arrived.

Not long after talking to Flamell, an aircraft landed on the Nibel Plateau.

After the aircraft stopped, a young man in uniform walked down from it.

"Greetings, Your Highness!"

The young man greeted Ange loudly.

Ange asked, "Are you Jeremy?"

The young man replied, "Yes, Your Highness. If Your Highness needs anything in the future, you can contact me at any time!"

It turned out that this young man named Jeremy was a guard specially assigned to Ange by the royal palace to run errands. Ange could ask him for anything in the future, and his salary was also paid by the royal family.

"Okay, then I'll be in your care from now on." Ange nodded, "Have you bought all the materials I asked for?"

Jeremy replied, "Don't worry, Your Highness. According to Miss Flamell's instructions, everything has been bought!"

As he spoke, he clapped his hands, "Pangoro, Armaldo, I'll leave it to you!"

As his voice fell, two Pokémon were seen carrying bags of materials down from the aircraft. Before long, the doorstep of Ange's house was filled with materials, including wheat bran, straw, humus, and so on.

Jeremy: "Your Highness, all the materials you wanted are here. Please check them."

Ange checked them and said, "The materials are fine. Thank you for making this trip."

Jeremy scratched the back of his head and said, "This is my job, Your Highness. You don't need to be polite. If Your Highness has nothing else, then I'll leave first."

Ange nodded, "Okay, go ahead."

So Jeremy took Pangoro and Armaldo and drove the aircraft away from the Nibel Plateau.

After Jeremy left, Ange took the Pokémon to move the materials into the garbage disposal area of the Secret Fortress, and then put them into the reaction furnace.

This way, Ange only had to wait for a while to get super-useful fertilizer.
