Chapter 266: The Relationship between Ground-type Pokémon and Civil Engineering

"Are you kidding me? Is there such a cheating feature?"

The faces of Pipa and Mudan turned a little pale due to shock. Because they were lucky, they kept triggering additional effects of their moves. Is it possible to fight Pokémon like this?

Observing the reactions of the two, Luo Mu smiled. The combination of the Sprout Deer's mind hammer moves and Tian'en's characteristics was nothing.

Pokkisi's air blade move plus the grace characteristic can really beat people to the point of losing their temper. In the initial stage, Pokkisi might be able to use his luck to shake out Sub-Aerial Slash, Cliff Sword, Finishing Touch, and Punishment Gravel.
Looking at the two Pokémon that were constantly attacked by the two Bufalos, whose injuries were accumulating but they were unable to move because of the additional effects that were constantly triggered, Pipa and Mudan were completely at a crossroads of choice.

Do you want to admit defeat?

Or fight till the last moment?
To Luo Mu's surprise, the first person to stand up was not Pi Pa, but Mudan, who couldn't even speak a complete sentence in front of a stranger.

Mudan took a step forward, and even her pale skin, which had been stained with blood due to staying in the dormitory for a long time and not seeing much light, was stained with a hint of blood. Mustering her strength, Mudan made a trumpet shape with her hands and shouted at Sylveon, who was being hit by Moe Deer like a volleyball:
"Don't give up, Sylveon!"

Just like how the Star Team was formed in the game to deal with the problem of bullying, even if Mudan is not good at communicating with others, she will not lack the courage to fight.

Looking at Mudan like this, Pipa was stunned for a moment. She felt that Mudan was shining all over. As a fighting trainer and wrestling enthusiast, her sixth sense told her that she and Mudan would definitely get along well.

Since this classmate Mudan is more decisive than her, then Pipa naturally cannot fall behind!

Taking a horse stance and sinking his Qi into his Dantian, Pi Pa responded with a resounding voice: "Abandoned Monkey, show your perseverance——!"

Trust your partners, they will respond to you.

The Forsaken and Sylveon, who were constantly ravaged by the two Bud Deer's Mind Hammers, seemed to have heard the trainer's call and burst out with unprecedented potential. They broke free from the shackles of the cowering state with their own thoughts and perseverance, and a strong fairy aura and fighting spirit rose up.

"Feiya!" "Sharu!"

Along with the falling hand knife of the Forsaken Monkey and the sonic attack of Sylveon that was tainted with fairy energy, the two Sprout Deer's mind hammer combo was forced to interrupt.

Looking at the scene in front of him, Luo Mu chuckled. The situation in Pokémon battles is always so unpredictable. Even if one Pokémon has greater hard power than the other, relying on the long-standing bond, the Pokémon fighting for the trainer can also burst out with unimaginable strength and perseverance.

Whether it's the Monkey King who eats, sleeps and trains with Pipa, or the Sylveon whose relationship is so deep that it can evolve based on intimacy, they all meet this condition.

Looking at Mudan and Lopa who have rekindled their fighting spirit, in Luo Mu's heart, they have already qualified.

However, the battle continues.

"Grass field!"

The slightly excited commanding voice resounded throughout the battlefield once again.

“Ahhh, I still lost—”

Pipa sat down on the ground, completely oblivious to her image, with a look of resentment on her face.

"I'm sorry, I didn't keep up with your fighting pace."

Mudan, on the other hand, had a look of regret on her face. She had completely become the opponent's breakthrough point, and her support was always half a beat slow.

"."

Mudan was startled by Pipa's sudden silence and looked towards her, only to see Pipa staring at her without blinking. Her focused eyes made Mudan a little flustered.

No way. Since I lost the battle due to my own fault, will Pipa beat me?

Pipa's physique is very strong (not in a derogatory way), and it feels like she can knock out a homely girl like me who doesn't exercise enough with just one punch.
Just when Mudan was becoming extremely nervous because of Pipa's gaze, suddenly, Pipa opened her arms. When she closed her eyes in fear, Mudan was greeted by a warm embrace.

"Eh?"

Mudan let out a short and quick exclamation from her throat, her nostrils flaring. Her first reaction was that classmate Pipa had a pleasant, light scent of laundry detergent on her body. She really wanted to ask her what brand she used.

The next second, a warm big hand covered with a thin layer of dead calluses, different from the petite hands of ordinary girls, fell on Mudan's head and stroked it gently.

"Don't blame Mudan-chan, she did a great job. It's really because the cooperation between the sprout deer and the others was too tacit that we couldn't find any opportunities—"

"Pipa classmate."

Mudan's eyes were slightly dazed behind her round-frame glasses, and she just stood there in a daze, letting Pipa touch her head.

Was she comforted?
Isn’t Pipa too gentle?

"That's right, MoeGro and the others have lived together for a long time, and they often accompany other Pokémon to fight on the farm. It's pretty good that this is the effect of your first doubles battle."

Luo Mu's voice came from far away, Mudan and Pipa looked up in the direction where the voice came from.

Luo Mu swore that he did not mean to interrupt the extremely harmonious atmosphere between the two, but Monkey King and Sylveon had already recovered their energy under the treatment of Flower Therapy Ring.

The two Pokémon came to Pipa and Mudan, both looked a little disappointed and self-blaming. They still lost.
“It’s not your fault.”

After comforting the two Pokémon softly for a while, Mudan picked up Sylveon, and Pipa and Monkey held hands with one hand, looking at the Buddeer beside Luo Mu with full of fighting spirit.

The experience gained from this defeat will definitely be used next time!

Luo Mu raised his lips when he noticed their gazes. He stroked the hair of the female budding deer beside him and chuckled, "Congratulations on passing the test. Since time is tight, the next step is the intense and exciting special training, which will last until the day we go to Blueberry Academy. Are you okay?"

"Great!"

Mudan and Pipa looked at each other, joy showed on their faces, and they jumped up with happiness.

The next second, after hearing Luo Mu's special training declaration clearly, Mudan's expression suddenly froze.

Does this mean she will have special training every day from now on?
Mudan raised her hand weakly and asked, "Um. Do we have a weekend?"

No matter how strong you become, you should still have holidays and rest time, right?

Luo Mu looked at Mudan as if it was a matter of course, and said with a meaningful smile: "What do you think?"

Under Pi Pa's surprised gaze, Mudan's legs softened and she knelt on the ground, mumbling:

Oh no, I seem to be on a pirate ship!

After interviewing Mudan and Pipa's group, Luo Mu, who was a little surprised, took the opportunity to call Nimo and Papa, and explained to them, just like he had informed Mudan and Pipa, that they would be going to Blueberry Academy and having special training for doubles matches in the next month.

The battle-crazy Nimo had no resistance to this matter. She was even more motivated because it involved a doubles match that she had never tried before. Papa's words could only mean that no matter how much he wailed, he could not escape Luo Mu's Five Finger Mountain.

The sentence "Do you still want to get down to the Padia pit?" completely aroused Papa's fighting spirit. Luo Mu sneered, thinking that he was just a little brat and was played around by the dirty adults.

These four people are the team that Luo Mu plans to bring to Blueberry Academy.

Before leaving Orange Academy, Luo Mu found the mathematics teacher Taim and asked her to come over occasionally to help look after the progress of the four students' doubles practice, give some suggestions, and find some weak points that Luo Mu had not discovered.

As the former leader of the Ice Box Gym, Taim excels in Rock-type Pokémon and has many years of experience in doubles battles. Even though Luo Mu has a lot of theoretical knowledge, many small problems and details in actual combat are easier for Taim to discover.

May 5th, inside Luomu Farm.

As large trucks pulled up outside the farm fence, more than a dozen workers wearing safety helmets got off the trucks along with Wanli and Haoli. This also meant that the Haoli engineering team had come out in full force because they had received a large order, and all the workers and Pokémon gathered together.

Luo Mu and housekeeper Zhi Huixing had been waiting here long ago. After shaking hands with the contractor, Luo Mu smiled slightly and said, "I'd like to trouble the contractor to pay more attention to this construction project."

"Of course, this is our responsibility. Don't worry, Boss Luo Mu, I promise to monitor the four projects from beginning to end!"

The contractor smiled brightly and looked at Luo Mu as if he was looking at the God of Wealth.

This time, a huge engineering project worth over one million yuan fell on his head as if pie in the sky!
The workers in the engineering team were mobilized in full force, and they also used their connections to invite power engineers from big cities to supervise the laying of circuits and the installation of the power storage and power generation facilities.

As expected, it was a good idea to make friends with this farmer who could easily raise quasi-gods. Basically every month, he would receive big orders for farm reconstruction!

Thanks to him, the brothers' lives have become much better recently. He can be said to be supporting the entire engineering team on his own.

After the greetings, Luo Mu leaned over and invited, "Please come in."

The contractor nodded slightly, let his brothers rest outside first, and followed Luo Mu into the farm.

After Luo Mu looked at the specific plan and project book provided by the contractor, he pointed to the underground circuit plan based on the farm map and asked, "This will be built underground, so we need to dig a hole, right?"

Although he didn't understand why Luo Mu asked this, the contractor nodded and replied, "Ah, yes."

"How are you going to dig the hole?"

"Well, generally speaking, they use an excavator to roughly dig away the solid surface layer, and then the workers, Hao Li, and the moles they have captured for this purpose will carry out detailed repairs."

“How efficient is it?”

"Based on the area of ​​your farm, it will take at least three or four days."

"."

Under the contractor's nervous gaze, Luo Mu frowned and began to think, as if he had considered something.

At this time, the considerate Zhi Huixing explained to the contractor through telepathy:
[The young master is worried that the construction noise for three or four consecutive days will cause a certain degree of mental burden on the Pokémon on the farm.]

The contractor was startled. A voice suddenly appeared in his head! ?

Then he looked at Zhi Huixing with shocked eyes, and his intuition told him that that was Zhi Huixing's voice just now.

Wow, there are several quasi-god Pokémon with dragon attributes, and it’s such a big farm, and it’s called Young Master by a Pokémon that looks like a housekeeper and can even talk.

As expected, Luo Mu must be the young master of some big family who went to the countryside to experience life!
"The noise from digging is inevitable. As long as we endure these few days, the noise from subsequent works will be much smaller."

The contractor tried his best to persuade them, hoping to retain this big order that seemed to be on the verge of collapse.

Without waiting for Zhihuixing’s butler to respond, Luo Mu said, “Well, let’s try to dig the entire tunnel today.”

"what?"

The contractor was dumbfounded. In their previous cooperation, Luo Mu was not an unreasonable client. Why did he suddenly make such an unreasonable request?

Seeing that the contractor didn't understand, Luo Mu added a little more detail: "What I mean is that you guys divide the routes throughout the farm and build a tunnel. Just leave it to me."

The contractor, with a puzzled look on his face, suddenly broke out in a cold sweat. What on earth was this farmer, who was suspected to be the young master of a wealthy family, thinking?
"The End of the Earth Rumble"

A bright light lit up along with the sound of Luo Mu falling. Amid the workers' extremely shocked expressions, their mouths opened so wide that they seemed to be able to fit duck eggs, the light merged into the body of the tall and strong heavy mud draft horse.

“HuaiHuai!!!”

The mud-ridden horse let out a heavy yet domineering roar towards the sky, as if its heavy front hooves with a force of ten thousand pounds smashed into the ground heavily, and the ochre-colored shock wave shot out like a sharp arrow, accompanied by the rumbling sound of the land being unable to bear the weight.

The ground cracked.

"This is this!!!"

The contractor was so stunned that even his voice began to tremble.

What appeared before them was a tunnel of the width and height that met their planning requirements. Originally, it would take at least half an hour for the excavator and workers to work together to build a tunnel that was hundreds of meters long.

Now, it only took Luo Mu and the Pokémon called Mudsbane less than a minute.

Before the contractor could recover, screams were heard from the other side. A giant Swampert created cracks in the ground with its own strength. Countless mud rolled out like an earth dragon, and in the blink of an eye, a tunnel was formed that was no less powerful than the one made by the heavy mud horse using the "Earth Rumble and Roaring Sky Great End".

The contractor was completely dumbfounded. In his impression, the group of gophers that he had specially tamed for the land engineering project could at most make a small crack in the ground, and then they were very good at digging the soil, which could loosen the soil and make it easier for the workers and the strong men to dig holes.

Why do our Ground-type Pokémon and your Ground-type Pokémon have different styles?

The contractor, who was hesitant to speak, has already guessed Luo Mu's true identity. Pokémon has such powerful power, he must at least be as strong as the gym leader.

Luo Mu didn't know what the workers and the contractor were thinking. He looked at the tunnel that was opened according to the planned marks and touched the body of the heavy mud horse with a smile: "Your control of power has become more and more precise. Kapu Moo will definitely be proud of you when he sees it."

The heavy mud horse let out a joyful cry and leaned forward to rub Luo Mu's body.

While enduring the intimate movements of pulling a heavy mud horse, Luo Mu felt his own strength.

After all, he didn't use his full strength to unleash his Z moves, so the loss of his stamina wasn't that great. It should only take a while for the Z bracelet and Z pure crystal to be fully charged.

At this rate, we should be able to complete the tunnel today!
Then you can lay the circuit!
