Chapter 34: Mosquito Repellent Tadpole
The selling price of a single Taijing fragment is about 3000 Alliance Coins, which is basically the same as items such as hard stone.

The Crystal Fragments have only one use - in the famous Pokémon Restaurant in the Padia region, you only need to use 50 Crystal Fragments of the same attributes to make a special dish that can change the Pokémon's Crystal attributes.

"For those with a lot of money, changing the properties of Taijing can provide more tactical options. However, the normal properties of Taijing are basically enough. Let's use these two pieces to exchange for money."

Luo Mu shook his head. The reserves of Tai crystal fragments in the Padia area are still very rich. After the crystals that appear randomly in various parts of the area are broken, there is a probability that Tai crystal fragments will be produced. There are quite a few Tai crystal fragments of various attributes for sale on the market.

It even gave rise to a group of people who specialized in picking up Taijing fragments to make a living.

Luo Mu did not tame the Victorious Hairy Crab. The crab claws dropped by wild Victorious Hairy Crabs taste very different from those dropped by domesticated Victorious Hairy Crabs. There is no comparison at all. Most restaurants will specifically note that they need the crab claws dropped by wild Victorious Hairy Crabs when purchasing them.

Luo Mu followed the Roentgen cat and found a flat place in the mountains to set up a tent, light a bonfire, and set up a small pot to steam the claws of the competitive hairy crab.

Break open the crab claws and you'll find about six or seven pounds of tender white crab meat inside. Find some water and steam it in a pot to bring out the full flavor of the crab meat.

After challenging the General Department Gym, Luo Mu had a meal with the office animal Brother Aoki at the Bao Cafeteria.

At that time, a chef from Bao Canteen couldn't help but sigh when he heard that Luo Mu once found a pair of wild hairy crab claws and ate one of them by boiling it in water.

That way of eating it was a complete waste of food, so the chef immediately introduced to Luo Mu the best way to cook the claws of the hairy crab.

It’s a pity that Luo Mu didn’t bring soy sauce, but only some portable condiments such as salt and chili powder. Otherwise, given the deliciousness of the crab meat in the crab claws, a little soy sauce would be enough to make people’s eyebrows drop.

White steam rose upwards, and Luo Mu was not worried that the smell of the campfire and food would attract wild Pokémon.

Not to mention that there is no wild Pokémon nearby that can withstand three attacks from the Roentgen Cat. Even with the loud roar of the Roentgen Cat after it crystallized just now, most wild Pokémon would not dare to come out to look for food at this time even if they smelled the fragrance.

Luo Mu, who kept track of the time, opened the lid of the pot without hesitation after the countdown in his mind ended. In the misty white steam, the tender white crab meat lay on the shell of the crab claws. The crab meat and the clear steamed soup exuded a sweet and fresh aroma. Just one sniff and saliva began to secrete crazily in Luo Mu's mouth at a very fast speed.

The finest ingredients often only require the simplest cooking methods.

Luo Mu and Roentgen Cat looked at each other, and regardless of the scorching temperature of the crab shell, they each picked up/held the crab shell and tasted the delicious crab meat with excitement on their faces.

The thick, tender, and distinctly white crab meat can produce an extremely sweet soup, and the thick, soft and rotten wonderful taste makes Luo Mu feel that all his hard work over the past year is worth it just by swallowing this mouthful of crab meat.

The Roentgen cat's eyes were also shining as it ate, and the tip of its star-shaped tail was wagging with joy.

Luo Mu eats less than half of the crab meat, while Roentgen Cat eats more than half of the crab meat.

However, they ate at almost the same speed.

Just by having a full meal of this top-notch delicacy, Luo Mu felt that his trip was worth it.

Luo Mu planned to take the remaining crab claw back as a souvenir to share with other Pokémon. After all, it was not good for him and Roentgen to eat alone. The temperature was not high in the early spring night, but Luo Mu felt that since he ate the crab meat, his whole body began to warm up, and he did not feel cold in the cold wind.

Roentgen Cat's feelings were even clearer than Luo Mu's. Not only did the energy in his body become abundant after eating the crab meat, but even his body functions were slightly improved.

The next day, early in the morning.

Luo Mu and Roentgen Cat packed up early and returned down the mountain the same way they came. The lake they wanted to go to was about a few hundred meters east of the foot of the mountain.

They walked very quickly and arrived at their destination in less than ten minutes.

The lake is located in the center of a small wetland, with many wild Pokémon living in the wetland scattered around it.

Although there are no super rare late-blooming Pokémon like Slimey, the young Pokémon like Wooper and Swampert, Psyduck and Marill, or Slime can be seen distributed.

Luo Mu observed the wetland environment and found that it would be much easier for Swampert to build a canal to divert water. It was not possible to tell what Pokémon and fish were in the lake, but the water storage capacity was sufficient, and there would be no risk of water level drop if the big hole on his farm was filled.

As for water quality
Luo Mu walked to the edge of a relatively dry lake, squatted down, and took out a set of water quality test kits from his large backpack.

The collected lake water was dropped onto the test kit and waited for about three minutes. Two red lines indicating unclean water source did not appear on the test kit, which means that the lake water met all the conditions.

The Roentgen cat came over, nudged Luo Mu with its head, and a short, rapid purr came from its throat.

Luo Mu freed one hand and touched its furry head, then said with a smile: "No problem, we can bring Swampert back to divert the water."

Having solved a worry, before going back, Luo Mu planned to take a walk around the wetland to see if there were any suitable water-type Pokémon to kidnap. Ahem, adopt and take home!
Wooper, Psyduck and Marill didn't quite meet Luo Mu's expectations.

If most Woopers are overly active and noisy, then their evolved form, Swamplord, is at the other extreme. It is slow-moving, good-tempered, and laid-back. It is simply the Pokémon version of Capybara.

Psyduck is too stupid, and Gotha Duck is more suitable to follow the fishermen to fish than work on the farm.

Marill, the water rat, and Marillil, the water rabbit, are more suitable for beating Dragonite with Play (sure).

Luo Mu's eyes wandered across the lake, hoping to find a water-type Pokémon that would be suitable for the farm.

About five minutes later, Luo Mu's eyes were about to burst into tears, and finally he saw a Pokémon that had just swam ashore not far away.

Slippery blue skin, a round body without hands, a plump, feathery tadpole tail, and a black swirling pattern on the abdomen!
Tadpole Pokémon - Mosquito Repellent Tadpole!
The original form of this Pokémon might be similar to Psyduck or Marill and Wooper.

But after completing two stages of evolution, the Pokémon King, one of the branch evolutions of the Pokémon evolved from the Pokémon Tadpole, has unique abilities and is one of the most suitable Pokémon for Luomu Farm!
