Chapter 346: Conference is over, business is booming and Grape Academy
The commentator's surprised voice sounded after a while: "Oh my God! Contestant No. 6's Flame Horse and defending champion Contestant No. 1's Kentaro were killed in one hit!"

“Is this the gap between levels?”

It instantly killed two Pokémon that were weak to ground-type moves with a stomp that looked like an earthquake. The Mudhorse moved its four legs, maintaining the highest speed and continued to charge forward without showing any signs of fatigue.

Luo Mu was not worried about the two players and Pokémon, because.
The roar of the car engine woke up Miss Junsha and Windy Dog who were just waking up from a dream.

Miss Junsha glanced at the accompanying paramedics who got off the van, then looked at the Flame Horse and Kentaro lying on the ground, and finally looked at Luo Mu and the heavy mud horse whose figures gradually disappeared from her sight.

Miss Junsha gritted her teeth and patted the wind speed dog under her: "Wind speed dog, let's go!"

Even if the contestant riding the Fiery Horse and Kentaro was defeated due to the absolute level difference, she could not stop there.

"Wang Woo!"

Arcanine responded with a sound, its streamlined muscles bulging slightly, its broad paw pads landing on the ground, and it charged straight ahead.

Because there are many potholes created by the heavy mud draft horses when they run hard, in order to avoid the risk of slipping or even breaking bones, the wind speed dog has to choose to land on the ground that is as intact as possible.

This undoubtedly greatly reduced the speed of the Wind Speed ​​Dog, consumed its physical strength and invisibly increased the speed of the Heavy Mud Horse.

After all, the mud protective gear on the heavy mud horse's feet, which looks like thick-soled boots, is not a decoration. No matter what obstacles are ahead, the heavy mud horse will not lose its balance because of potholes.

This is true even if the hole was caused by yourself.

Twenty kilometers towards the finish line, we had returned to the city’s asphalt road.

The heavy mud-covered draft horse stepped on the road where it had stepped on deep holes. Every time its four limbs stepped on the road, the mayor of Pingdie Town, Mrs. Aisha, and the people from the road administration department trembled in their hearts and their faces were full of heartache as the road surface shook.

Although there is funding from the alliance, the cost of rebuilding it is very high.
Gradually, Luo Mu, who was riding on the heavy mud horse, could hear faint cheers.

He knew that the end was near.

Looking at the heavy mud horse under him, whose breath was even and whose 500-kilometer run was no different from a walk, Luo Mu said softly, "Only one more leg left, heavy mud horse."

Hearing this, the heavy mud horse, which had been very steady until now, couldn't help but feel excited about the upcoming victory. It responded to Luo Mu with an especially loud cry, and the alternating movements of its four legs became slightly faster.

After running for a few more minutes, the commentary's voice had already echoed in the ears of Luo Mu and Chongni Lanma through the venue's speakers.

"Runner No. 26 Luo Mu and Chong Ni Draft Horse are less than a kilometer away from the finish line."

"Huh!?"

"That figure, could it be Miss Junsha from No. 25 and Arcanine? They actually caught up with us through a rough road even though they were behind!"

The commentator's voice was filled with an elusive surprise, as if he had never expected that Arcanine could catch up on that kind of road.

After hearing the commentary, Luo Mu looked back slightly.

He found that the wind speed dog was surrounded by flames and was sprinting towards him at full speed.

Miss Junsha, who was sitting on the back of the wind speed dog, had a serious and focused face, and her sight could no longer accommodate anything else except the destination in front of her.

However, even though Arcanine was already in its explosive state at this point, it had already run almost to the point of leaving behind a trail of afterimages.

Due to the triple influence of the distance, the full speed of the heavy mud horse and the ground, Miss Junsha finally missed the scarlet cloth.

Amid the cheers that filled the entire stadium and the excited shouts of the commentator, the heavy body of the heavy mud horse broke through the cloth strips, announcing the victory.

A few seconds late, he rode the speed dog across the finish line where he could no longer cross the line.

Miss Junsha was silent for a long time. Under the self-blaming and worried gaze of Wind Speed ​​Dog, she gently touched its head. Looking at the backs of Luo Mu and Chongni Draft Horse who were patrolling the field and accepting cheers, her eyes fell on the bracelet on his wrist and she smiled with relief.

"We have shown our all in this marathon."

"Luo Mu and Chongni's horse seem to have not used their full strength yet. I even feel a little sorry for him."

"In short, although the way they won was beyond my imagination, I am convinced of this defeat."

While Miss Junsha was talking to Windy Dog, the late-coming No. 7 Sachi and Rhino also successfully reached the finish line.

Looking at the figure that attracted everyone's attention, she took off her helmet, dug out the Polaroid camera she carried with her, and took a selfie with the Armored Rhino at the finish line. She wrote in beautiful handwriting on the back of the photo with a smile on her face.

"Achievement of riding the entire 500km Pokémon Marathon, achieved!"

The new Pokémon Marathon in Pingdie Town came to a successful (?) conclusion. Amid the cheers of the surrounding audience, Luo Mu and Chongni Wanma were the first to walk onto the podium.

This conference is essentially an activity to improve the happiness index of the residents of Pingdie Town. In terms of rewards, apart from the gold-plated trophy which has more symbolic significance than actual value, the remaining bonus is better than nothing for Luo Mu.

Just as mentioned before, at this time the central square of Pingdie Town was filled with almost all the residents of Pingdie Town, as well as quite a few travelers who came to watch the fun.

Luo Mu took the trophy and medal representing endurance handed to him by the mayor, Mrs. Elsa, and placed them directly on the head of the heavy mud horse amid exclamations.

The heavy mud horse, whose temperament was as steady and heavy as the earth, naturally lived up to Luo Mu's expectations. It held the trophy and medal firmly, stood upright beside Luo Mu, and took a photo with the mayor, Mrs. Elsa, who maintained a smile but had a vaguely strange expression.

With the click of the camera, time suddenly froze.

After taking the photo, Luo Mu winked at Chongni Wanma, conveying his meaning through his eyes.

Luo Mu: Hey, I said we should take photos today. It turned out to be a good idea to wash your mud-covered braids in advance.

Heavy mud pulling horse:.
There is a short interview period after the award ceremony, and you just need to answer some non-sharp questions.

Luo Mu is very skilled in this.

Until after finishing the interview, it was time for the champion to speak out as usual.

Luo Mu smiled shyly, and took out a few stacks of flyers and a few bottles of Moo Moo milk as samples from somewhere. Like a socially anxious person, he gave a speech about his farm's newly opened milk ordering business, inviting all his friends to order the freshest Moo Moo milk.

While giving a speech, he also cooperated with Zhi Huixing outside the venue to distribute the flyers accurately to everyone, and not a single one was missed and fell on the ground to pollute the town's appearance.

Miss Junsha, who was about to go on stage to accept the runner-up award, was even more stunned. I asked you to talk about the bond between you and Pokémon, and you advertised it in front of the whole town?

What is meant by a heavy mud horse? It grows so strong because it drinks Moo Moo's fresh milk.

Miss Junsha looked silently at the Arcanine beside her, who was slightly thinner than the others of her kind. After hesitating for a while, she also silently took a flyer.

It seems that the nutrition of fresh Moo Moo milk is several times that of refrigerated milk.
Luo Mu was talking, and as a customer who had actually ordered milk, Zheng Xing directly revealed that he had been ordering Moo Moo fresh milk from Luo Mu for a month.

Especially when it was mentioned that the ones delivering Moo Moo Milk were actually Steelix and Dragonite, the people around exclaimed one after another, and those who had originally planned to wait and see made up their minds or began to waver.

As for Madam Elsa, whose face had become stiff with a smile beside Luo Mu, she was completely stunned at this moment.

No, why are there people openly advertising here?

That evening, July 7th.

Even late at night, the lights in the small house are still bright, illuminating the surrounding area.

In the living room, the Pokémon divided into several groups, dealing with the letters that were almost piled up into a small mountain.

Pokémon such as Victini, Frostmilax, and Vulpix picked up the letter and handed it to Bladeblade, Mimikyu, and Serpentine beside them, asking them to use their moves or swords to remove the stickers on the letter.

Swampert picked up a piece of letter carefully, as if he was afraid that he would use too much strength and accidentally tear the letter to pieces.

It handed the letter to the Roentgen cat beside it. The Roentgen cat raised its front paws, and the sharp claws above the pads looked even sharper under the light, revealing a cold light, as if it wanted to cut off the light as well.

Roentgen Cat can guarantee that this is the extent of his seriousness when fighting against Ye Ci.

Staring intently at the letter in front of him, the Roentgen cat lowered its front paw, and the sharp tip almost instantly broke the cute baby bear sticker in two.

After doing all this, looking at the intact letter, Roentgen Cat and Swampert looked at each other and breathed a sigh of relief.

They all thought at the same time that this time they had finally succeeded.

On the other hand, Luo Mu hadn't left the bench for almost several hours since returning to the farm.

The telephone specially installed to facilitate the farm's milk ordering business has been ringing non-stop since the conference ended.

It would be fine if it was just a phone call, but the mail on the other side is almost overflowing.

As mentioned before, in this world, many residents are still accustomed to more primitive ways of long-distance communication than mobile phones, such as the senders of subscribed letters that fill farm mailboxes.

In a sense, old people like Professor Oak who post messages online are rare individuals.

Because Zhihuixing was so busy registering information that his fan was almost smoking, his originally vast mental power was even exhausted several times and had to rely on Victini to recharge.

Luo Mu was the only person in the entire farm who could speak without relying on telepathy. He could only do the job of a switchboard operator in this way, which was both painful and happy.

Time always passes quickly when you are busy working. When Luo Mu was too tired to do anything, he asked Victini to charge him.

Late at night, after finally finishing sorting out all the registration information, Luo Mu and the other Pokémon let out a sigh of relief.

Even Victini, the power bank, was so tired from charging so many times that it just collapsed on top of Luo Mu's head, refusing to move at all.

Fortunately, the rewards of hard work are visible to the naked eye.

The orders that have almost sold out the day's supply of Moo Moo Fresh Milk are proof enough.

Although many of them are trying to order one or two bottles, Luo Mu believes that after tasting the mooing fresh milk produced by the big milk tank and the mount lamb, there will definitely be many repeat customers.

After a short sleep of a few hours, he was busy watching the Steel Crows fly away from the farm with full bottles of Moo Moo Milk. Looking at the Dragonite and Dragonite Leader who flew away with the Steel Crows to supervise, Luo Mu's face was filled with the bright smile that an old farmer would show when harvesting in the fields.

The last few days of summer vacation are particularly long.

The advertising campaign that was personally launched after winning the Pokémon Marathon was very effective.

Fortunately, Luo Mu was well prepared for the countless orders that came out of nowhere.

The training results of the Steel Crows were very significant. Without any mistakes or omissions, they accurately delivered every bottle of Moo Moo Milk to the customer's doorstep.

The next day, the mailbox was full again and the phone calls kept coming.

Just as Luo Mu thought, there were quite a few customers who chose to continue ordering. According to Zhihuixing's statistics, probably 80% of people chose to continue ordering for half a month or a month, and even a few customers directly ordered for half a year or a year.

Among the largest orders, in addition to those from the mayor's mansion, there are also orders from the Pingdie Town Police Department.

It can be said that just the publicity of a marathon conference made the farm's milk subscription business flourish in Pingdie Town.

During this period, Luo Mu also went to Zhuotai City at the suggestion of Miss Joy.

No, I went to Orange College. The final renovation has been completed. In the next six months, I borrowed some professional books from the library, which was renamed Grape College, so that they could be used as teaching materials when learning medical knowledge.

According to the prescription given by Miss Joy, Luo Mu purchased several corresponding herbs with mild medicinal properties, and stuffed a portion of the herb and a portion of the secret seasoning: sour flavoring into the shell of Brother Hu Hu.

The other two medicinal herbs and the secret seasoning: the sour seasoning was stuffed into Sister Huhu's shell.

According to the estimated time given by Miss Joy, it usually takes half a month to a month for Huhu to make medicine in Zhanlan City in the Chengdu area.

It seems very long.

But considering that Sister Huhu fermented the juice almost twice as long, this time is completely within Luo Mu's tolerance.

As for whether younger brother Hu Hu would develop an inferiority complex because he was inferior to his sister in all aspects, Luo Mu also had a plan.

He decided to start letting his younger brother Hu Hu experience Pokémon battles.

Miss Joy's worries would be solved as long as she could make little brother Hu Hu understand that he was no less capable than his sister on other tracks.

The source of Luo Mu's self-confidence is his brother Hu Hu's richer skill pool than his sister, as well as his ability to control his moves!
