Chapter 288: Catch the Zapdos to generate electricity! Tai Jing cuisine at Bao Restaurant, preparations for going to the Johto region!
Afterwards, Luo Mu conducted several more tests with the help of Victini.

Unfortunately, due to the influence of infinite energy, Arcanine in lava mode can even overwhelm Moltres in a short period of time, so there is no reference for the specific combat power bonus.

But thanks to the influence of Victini's infinite energy, Luo Mu roughly grasped the necessary conditions for Ardennes to activate lava mode.

1. Increased body temperature.

2. High energy.

3. High spirits.

It's very brief, but a little difficult to implement. The standard is still unclear now, but Luo Mu plans to carry out special training on these three points for Argyle in the future, and strive to allow Argyle to independently activate this very rare special ability.

As for Windy, because it made Moltres a little embarrassed, and then staged several dramas of loving mother and filial piety, but these were not things that Luo Mu needed to pay attention to.

A childhood without eating fried bamboo shoots with meat is incomplete (a bold statement).

With the addition of Victini, the farm's operating efficiency and the Pokémon's training progress have been greatly improved.

Tired of maintaining green grass fields, praying for rain, and sunny days?

Victini can be charged and last for a while longer!

Combat training has used up all your energy reserves and you are exhausted?

Victini can charge and fight several games in a row!
After a period of time, Victini almost became the darling of all the Pokémon on the farm. In order to entice Victini to help, they often fed it delicious food in private.

There were tree fruits, saved snacks, and even more powerful ones like Bladeblade. In order to swing the sword a few more times, he secretly set up a barbecue grill to grill a single Pokémon for Victini.

Luo Mu also had a clear understanding of Pictini's abilities and made several conclusions.

1. Victini's energy may really be infinite energy. No matter whether it is a weak Pokémon like a fruitworm that is tired after maturing several times, or a powerful Pokémon like Roentgens and Swampert that already have rich energy reserves, Victini can fully charge them all at once without batting an eyelid.

2. There are roughly two ways to charge Victini. One is that a golden aura rises from Victini's body, giving the Pokémon a one-time super-strength, capable of doing outrageous things like Vulpix killing the Dark Triangle in seconds, and Arcanine turning on lava mode to shoot down Moltres.

The second is to help Pokémon replenish their physical strength and energy, simply charging.

3. Perhaps it is a restriction set by the God of Creation Arceus. Although Victini has infinite energy, once it is strengthened and recharged too many times, its spirit will show a very obvious state of fatigue, and it will be difficult to continue to recharge and strengthen.

In the movie, Dredo seemed to know this and directly chose to capture Victini with the guardian stone pillar and forcibly extract its energy.

This would be extremely painful for Victini, but it would also allow him to easily extract enough energy to allow a mountain-sized Earth Sword Castle to fly.

After the above summary, Victini’s positioning is very clear - logistics and support.

As expected of a mythical Pokémon that focuses on functionality, Victini's power surprised Romu very much, but apart from fighting, Romu used all of Victini's abilities for farming.

Under its reinforcement, the effect of the composite green grass field created by the flower therapy rings has undergone earth-shaking changes. Even the secret seasonings have undergone extremely significant changes under the cover of the green grass field, not to mention ordinary crops.

June 6th, farming area.

In a special field, Hualiao Huanhuan and Bai Pengpeng had just finished a composite grass field. The emerald green spots that were very bright even during the day gradually dissipated, revealing the original appearance of the crops in the field.

A lush network of vines spread across the farmland, the vines taking on long, soft forms covered with tendrils, tender green leaves and side vines, and pale yellow buds already showing their tips.

That’s right, this field is planted with the indispensable summer heat reliever - watermelon.

On the first day Luo Mu returned from the Hezhong region, he bought watermelon seeds from the market in Pingdie Town and started sowing them. Normally, the watermelons would take several months to grow, but they were about to bloom in less than a week.

At this rate, Luo Mu and the Pokémon will be able to eat the watermelons they grow by mid-July at the latest.

In addition to watermelons, Luo Mu also grows peaches, blueberries, cherries and cucumbers, which are essential summer fruits.

When choosing watermelon varieties, Luo Mu specifically picked a very expensive variety that was said to produce big and sweet watermelons.

Grandma Juzi also recommended to Luo Mu whether he wanted the recently developed seedless watermelon, but Luo Mu declined the offer on the grounds that a watermelon without seeds would have no soul.

When leaving the seed shop, Grandma Juzi reminded Luo Mu that her son would be back for a while in July and August, and if he had any questions about Windy Dog, it would be best to talk about it then.

After returning home from the farming area, Luo Mu looked at the electronic detailed list given by Zhi Huixing, his eyes widened and his expression was full of shock.

"The rock salt produced by the Yanshibao, the cotton produced by the Baipeng, and the fruit and crops produced in the past month, all added up to sell for nearly 300,000 Alliance coins?"

Turtle, it only cost about 10,000 or 20,000 yuan at most to buy seeds and saplings. Most of the food for Pokémon is produced and sold by the farm itself, which is basically the same as not spending any money.

And now that Victini has joined the farm, the output is expected to increase dramatically again, and the income will probably be even higher.

Why are you still a social animal? Come to the Pokémon world and be a farmer!
His wallet was bulging again, and Luo Mu didn't plan to keep it for the New Year. He kept a portion of the money as reserve funds just in case, and used the rest to place new orders with the Haoli Engineering Team, such as building sunshades and rain shelters for the ranch area.

I gave a small portion of the money to an electrical appliance store in town and installed air conditioners in every room and the living room of the small villa before summer.

When it comes to the hottest weather in July and August, he can stay in the house with the Pokémons, enjoy the air conditioning, eat iced watermelon and peaches, make some related desserts and drinks, and live such a leisurely and comfortable life!

To live such a leisurely and comfortable life, electricity must be an indispensable resource. Thinking that it is about time, even though there is Victini on the farm that can give the Roentgen Cat and Thunderdrum functions, Luo Mu still wants to bring the Zapdos to the farm to generate electricity.

Put an end to all freeloading behaviors and never suffer any loss!

Luo Mu directly gave the task of capturing Zapdos and bringing it back to the farm to generate electricity to Moltres. With Moltres' current strength, the Zapdos, which was comparable to the former Moltres, had no chance of beating it at all.

Not to mention that Luo Mu also asked Mimikyu to go with Moltres. If they met Articuno that just returned to its island, they would tie it up and bring it back. They would then help Vulpix and the others build a few igloos that were difficult to melt in the underground ice cellar and on the ground, and then treat them with good food and drinks before sending them back.

As for Luo Mu himself, he rode on Dragonite and flew towards Ziqin Town, intending to make the final preparations for his trip to the Johto area.

From Ye Ci, who was planning to promote Tai Crystallization in the Padia area recently, Luo Mu learned that the general of Bao Canteen had recently developed a special dish that was earth-shattering and awe-inspiring. One of the ingredients of the dish, and also the most important ingredient, was - fragments of the attribute Tai Crystal!
Luo Mu knew very well what this meant. He just needed to collect fifty pieces of Taijing fragments with the same attributes and hand them over to the generals of Bao Canteen for cooking.

Let’s not talk about what kind of dishes can be cooked with the crystal fragments, but the effect of the dishes will change according to the properties of the given crystal fragments.

Luo Mu has experimented and found that Dragonite's Tai Crystal attribute is "Dragon Attribute". If he collects 50 pieces of Fairy Attribute Tai Crystal fragments and gives them to the generals of Bao Canteen to make food for Dragonite, Dragonite's Tai Crystal attribute will become Fairy Attribute!

Unlike the power of Mega Evolution, the shock of Dynamax and the decisive move of Z-Move, Mega Crystallization is a tactical system full of possibilities. Different Mega Crystal attributes combined with different Pokémon will produce huge tactical value.

Seeing that he was about to go to the Johto region to let Dragonite learn Speed, Luo Mu had to take this opportunity to help Dragonite change its Taijing attributes!
Luo Mu is looking forward to how powerful Dragonite will become with Taijing's super speed in normal state.

The first step is to purchase a sufficient number of general Tai crystal fragments at the auction market in Ziqin Town, and then go to Bao Restaurant in Jinhui Town to order Tai crystal dishes.

In Ziqin Town, in order to purchase Taijing fragments more efficiently, Luo Mu approached Terry from the Auction Market Management Committee, who was also the person Luo Mu had rescued in the Honghong Desert.

After learning about Luo Mu's purpose, Terry thought for a moment and chuckled, "For a Taijing fragment of normal attributes, I can help you lower the price to 3000 Alliance Coins per piece, including the handling fee. Is that okay with you?"

"No problem, just do it as you see fit."

Luo Mu nodded slightly. He had known about it before coming here, not to mention that he had collected a lot of Taijing fragments and sold them for money before.

The lowest price for general attribute Taijing fragments sold by other trainers at their stalls was just over three thousand, but those were in bulk, making it very troublesome to purchase. It would be better to spend a little more money and buy fifty general attribute Taijing fragments directly from Terry.

By the way, due to different attributes, the prices of Taijing fragments also vary. For example, there is a huge gap between the prices of the more expensive Taijing fragments with dragon, ghost, and super-power attributes and the cheaper insect and general Taijing fragments.

"Please wait a moment. I'll get ready right away."

After hearing Luo Mu's answer, Terry pushed the mirror frame lightly, bowed slightly, left a word and left the room.

In less than half an hour, Terry walked into the reception room with a heavy suitcase. He gently placed the suitcase on the table, and deftly opened the delicate lock of the suitcase with his white-gloved hands, revealing the contents inside.

A pile of gorgeous crystals that seem to be reflecting light under the light.

"These Tai Crystal fragments have different shapes, some are long and some are short, but the Tai Crystal energy contained in them is definitely top-quality among the same kind, so please rest assured."

Even though Luo Mu didn't ask, Terry carefully explained it to Luo Mu.

Luo Mu nodded slightly, and after confirming that there was no problem with the amount, he readily swiped his card to pay 150,000 Alliance Coins.

Not to mention, changing the attributes of the Aether Crystal is a bit expensive, but considering the hidden strength improvement and tactical value of the Pokémon brought about by the change of the Aether Crystal's attributes, Luo Mu thinks it is well worth it.

After paying the money and getting the goods, Luo Mu no longer had any need to stay here. As for the auction booths and the like, it would not be too late to come later. What he wanted more now was to help Dragonite change the properties of Taijing as soon as possible.

When he picked up the heavy suitcase and said goodbye to Terry, ready to leave, Terry suddenly asked, "Mr. Luo Mu, do you remember the question you asked me when you rescued me in the desert?"

Luo Mu paused, memories coming back to him.

He remembered that what he asked at that time was.
"You asked me why I was walking alone in the desert and collapsed in the depths of it."

"Even though I changed the subject at that time, you didn't say much but gave me water and food and sent me back to Zheqin Town."

Terry's expression was very complicated. After being rescued by Luo Mu, he had been thinking about whether to tell Luo Mu about this matter, but now he has made up his mind.

Whether from the perspective of repaying a favor or from the perspective of having a clear understanding of his own strength, he wanted to tell Luo Mu the news.

"I was a traveling merchant in Padya carrying a huge backpack full of goods, and I got some information from somewhere."

"Deep in the Basking Desert, there are two special Pokémon of gigantic size. In their respective nests, there are extremely rare treasures."

"There are plants with miraculous effects, and there are items that can evolve certain Pokémon that were confirmed to be incapable of evolving."

"I'm ashamed. At that time, I still wanted to be more fully prepared before going on an adventure. But after you saved me, as time passed, I became more open-minded. Now I live a stable and peaceful life. I have settled down in Ziqin Town and have a wife and children. I no longer have the courage to take risks."

After he finished speaking, Terry stuffed an old map into Luo Mu's hand.

"This is the specific route I drew. You can take a look if you need it. That's all I have to say."

Luo Mu was silent for a moment, then spread out the map and found that in addition to the detailed map of the Honghong Desert, there was also a route outlined with a pen.

Luo Mu thought that he should know what Terry was talking about. The huge special Pokémon should be the paradoxical Pokémon named Iron Track and Majestic Fang.

Plants with special effects should be secret seasonings. What are the items that can make Pokémon that cannot evolve evolve?

Luo Mu admitted that Terry successfully aroused his curiosity and made him want to go to the Hot Desert to find out what was going on.

But that's not now.

Rolling up the map, Luo Mu looked at Terry calmly, nodded slightly and said, "If there is a chance, I will go."

This time Terry didn't stop Luo Mu from leaving.

Luo Mu rode on Dragonite with his suitcase and arrived at Bao Canteen in Jinhui Town before dinner time. He opened the door of the brightly lit and warm building. Looking at the confused expression of Brother Aoki next to him, Luo Mu placed the suitcase in front of the general and clicked on the menu of "Make a special hidden dish".

A moment later, as Dragonite ate the Taijing food, a strange light bloomed around it. Dragonite touched its belly and looked at its claws.

It felt that it seemed to have become a little different.

Luo Mu couldn't wait and pulled his brother Aoki, who was about to go to work overtime and was enjoying his few quiet moments, to try a Tai Crystal battle in the battle field of Bao Canteen and had a great time.
