Chapter 374: Ye Ci's Shocking Coin-Breaking Villain's Experience at Grape Academy
Yeci, the always calm president of the Padia Pokémon League, was rarely stunned for a moment.
Then, she slightly exerted force on her hands, which were already intertwined, as if to keep herself calm.
On the surface, Ye Ci still looked calm and composed, but just by looking at the wrinkles on her gloves, one could tell that the usually meticulous president was definitely not at peace at this moment.
Ye Ci took a deep breath and said slowly: "Could you please say it again?"
Luo Mu was stunned. He didn't expect Ye Ci's reaction to be so big. He repeated again: "I kidnapped the King of Plenty from the ancient legend of the Galar region to the farm."
Yeci:!
Shocked? Surprised? Or something more complicated?
Ye Ci didn't know what her mood was at the moment. She gently rubbed her temples which suddenly felt a little swollen, and took out the communication device she carried with her to look up relevant information.
Even though they are neighbors, Yeci doesn't know much about the history and legends of the Galar region. At best, he only knows some stories about the Sword and Shield Warriors and Dark Night of Galar.
It is enough to have specific knowledge. The many things in Padiya are enough to keep Ye Ci busy. How can she have the leisure to learn about the legend of the King of Plenty in Galar?
Luo Mu waited quietly while Ye Ci browsed the relevant information.
After a moment, Ye Ci put down the communication device in his hand, took a long breath, and looked at Luo Mu with a slightly shocked expression.
To be frank, after browsing the Legend of the King of Plenty, which was very unpopular in the Galar region and even the content related to the legend was found with the help of her subordinates, her first reaction was that there might not be any King of Plenty in this world.
If the ability to make flowers bloom, fields fertile, and crops harvested bountifully really existed, why do many cities in the Galar region have to rely on trade activities with other cities or even the Padia region to purchase supplies in order to maintain their operations?
What's more, the legend of the King of Plenty is completely contrary to the legends of the Galar region that she knows. It was clearly the royal family of Galar who once ruled the Galar region. There is no such thing as a legendary king who rules the entire Galar.
But. Even though reason told Ye Ci that the King of Plenty did not exist, when Luo Mu mentioned the King of Plenty very calmly in front of him, even though he had not seen the other party in person, Ye Ci felt that he should believe Luo Mu.
"Did the King of Plenty come to Padya to spread his faith?"
Ye Ci is worthy of being the president and chief champion of the Padiya Alliance. Once she made the decision, her mind became frighteningly calm and she began to think directly about what the purpose of the King of Plenty was.
"If its power is really as the legend says, the Padya Alliance is willing to fully cooperate with it to spread its faith!"
In Ye Ci's opinion, if everything is true, the existence of the King of Plenty will thoroughly promote the rapid development of Padia, and use people's livelihood as a stepping stone to radiate to all walks of life and achieve the achievement of surpassing other alliances!
As if he had already seen the future of Padiya's rise, Ye Ci felt that his heart, which had been silent for a long time, began to beat violently again.
Ye Ci's words made Luo Mu feel helpless. Seeing her excited expression as if everything was true, she would immediately start her grand plan. Luo Mu paused suspiciously before saying cautiously:
"Is it possible that the King of Plenty is tired of his status as a king and no longer wants to respond to the endless expectations of his followers, so he chooses to leave the Galar region with me and come to my farm to be an ordinary farmer?"
After hearing what Luo Mu said, Ye Ci's expression suddenly cooled from "excited" to "unbelievable".
She opened her eyes wide, showing a rare expression of losing her composure again, and asked with trembling lips: ".What did you say?"
Luo Mu sighed and repeated it to Ye Ci.
Then, he mentioned the purpose of why he called Ye Ci here.
Because of the arrival of the Bud Crown King, the farm will definitely enter a period of rapid development in the next period of time.
Although there are still some areas in the agricultural zone that can be developed, in the foreseeable future, due to the existence of the Bud Crown King, farmland will gradually become insufficient.
The lack of farmland is not a critical issue, but the other things that arise from this issue are the real trouble.
As the Pokémon on the farm become more and more diverse, today's monotonous environment certainly cannot meet the needs of all Pokémon, like Regice, Snowball, Sandslash and Vulpix who share the same ice cellar.
Therefore, the expansion of the farm has been proposed by Zhihuixing Butler, who has already seen through this.
However, the major alliances in the Pokémon world pay more attention to the sense of boundaries with wild areas. In order to minimize the impact on the living environment of wild Pokémon, most development and construction are based on the original land.
Developing wild areas often requires a series of complicated procedures and long review periods, by which time the opportunity is almost gone.
Since there is a relationship, Luo Mu will naturally rely on this relationship to save some effort -
If you have connections but don't cause trouble for yourself, that's not being a man of integrity, that's being a fool.
"I have also investigated the area near my farm. Because it is close to human settlements, there are basically no wild Pokémon. If such a group appears during this period, I will naturally take the responsibility to find a new place for them to live or directly recruit them into the farm."
After Luo Mu finished speaking, Ye Ci was silent for a long time before he calmed down.
Even though her mood had calmed down temporarily, the shocking news that the King of Plenty no longer intended to be king was still lingering in her mind.
Ye Ci took a deep breath and said, "I will monitor the development process and speed up the approval process, but..."
It seemed as if Luo Mu had already foreseen what Ye Ci wanted to say. Or perhaps some existence already knew what Ye Ci wanted to say in advance, and it expressed its friendship to Ye Ci through Luo Mu's mouth.
"Since I have settled in Padia, if there is an emergency, I will certainly not sit idly by. That's what the Crown of Flowers said."
No matter it is a sudden natural disaster or a threat from ancient times or the future, when it comes to an emergency, even if he is just a farmer now, the King of Crowns does not mind showing his strength.
"That would be perfect."
Ye Ci's eyes lit up slightly, and now the last doubt in her heart completely disappeared.
If there is one thing that worries Ye Ci the most as the actual ruler of the Padia region, it must be the Padia region's ability to resist "disasters".
The definition of disaster is not limited to ordinary natural disasters and man-made disasters. The relevant filing of the Padia Alliance is also continuing to advance. What really worries Ye Ci is the resistance of the Padia region to the power of the legendary elves.
It's funny, there are no such legends in the Padia region, such as the legend of Ho-Oh and Lugia in the Kanto region, the creation myth in the Sinnoh region, etc. There is only the Padia Pit that needs to be strictly guarded like Pandora's box.
The position you are in determines the way you think. Since you are responsible for the future of the entire Padiya, while pushing yourself to become stronger and live up to the title of the chief champion, you are also worried about these "crises" that seem to have no shadow. But now it is different. With the promise of the King of Fertility, the Crown of Flowers, she feels much more at ease.
At least there will not be a fight between the God of the Earth and the God of the Sea in the Hoenn region on the other side of the Padia Sea, which would put the Padia region in danger.
The evil PY deal between the adults was perfectly reached. Ye Ci, who was in a particularly good mood, kindly reminded Luo Mu before leaving his office.
"Recently, there seem to be some rumors of ghosts in the academy. Some valuable items of teachers and students often disappear inexplicably. Although I have asked Lime to come to the academy to investigate whether it is a ghost Pokémon playing a prank, you'd better not leave important things in the office."
After saying that, Ye Ci waved his hand and left Luo Mu's office directly.
Luo Mu fell into deep thought.
Haunted? Valuables disappeared?
This doesn't seem like something that would happen at Grape Academy.
After hesitating for a moment, Luo Mu picked up the internal communicator of the college installed in his office and called Huang Bo, who had just finished class, to his office.
In name, Luo Mu was Huang Bo's boss, so Huang Bo trotted over and greeted Luo Mu very respectfully, even though Luo Mu was actually five or six years younger than her.
Luo Mu called Huang Bo over. In addition to telling her exactly what Shinji said and tactfully reminding her that she could make the teaching content a little more diversified, he also asked for more detailed details about the haunted rumors.
When Luo Mu heard Huang Bo say that the lost things were all shiny objects, most of which were made of gold, and even the important gold ring that her good friend, the school doctor Mimosa, was going to give to her future significant other was lost, his expression instantly became strange.
How come there is such a strange ring in this world that seems to only appear in the world of romance light novels?
After Huang Bo received Luo Mu's advice and the big round promise of "You will definitely take over my position in the future", she felt like she was on fire and rushed out of the office with full motivation.
Judging from her appearance, she probably doesn't even plan to take a lunch break. I'm afraid she will start preparing for the afternoon classes as soon as she gets home?
The office became quiet again. Luo Mu released Dragonite, Flower Therapy Ring, Hu Hu and Salt Stone to let them move freely in the office. Then he stroked his chin and pondered the identity of the "ghost" who seemed to be particularly fond of stealing gold.
Honestly, this is way too obvious.
Even if any one of these elements was mentioned separately, Luo Mu felt that he could not be so sure.
But if the two elements of "ghost" and "gold" are combined and are still in this Padia region, the identity of their corresponding Pokémon is almost obvious.
In order to confirm his guess, Luo Mu poked the system which was basically useless and whose presence was even weaker than Mimikyuu.
"Is that what I guessed?"
[It's the coin-carrying villain, host]
Although the system is not very useful, it has never made any mistakes in intelligence. Since it says it is, it basically cannot be wrong.
Well, it’s confirmed, it was Suo Cailing who did it.
When Luo Mu thought of Suo Cailing, the figure of Suo Cailing whom he met in the hot desert emerged in his mind.
When Leihe and I came out of the tomb, the other party's trace had completely disappeared. I don't know how it is doing now, or whether it is still living in the hot desert with yellow sand all over the sky?
In a corner of the Grape College library, Suo Cailing was happily counting the results of his hard work over this period of time.
Although those bookshelves filled with books looked a bit scary from Suo Cailing's perspective, thanks to the gaps between these huge bookshelves, it could move through these gaps and move safely in any direction of Grape Academy.
Suo Cailing has been in this huge academy for a long time.
It came from the distant, hot desert to this unfamiliar place.
At that time, Suo Cai Ling originally wanted to hide secretly on the body of a human who was good at commanding Pokémon, and secretly leave the dangerous desert. However, the plan failed in the end because the other party did not get on the car.
Fortunately, although the woman's driving skills were a bit poor, she still managed to get him out of the hot desert. Suo Cailing took the small box of gold coins hidden between the seats of the car with gratitude, and secretly got out of the car and hid in the library.
The environment in the library is indeed countless times safer than the scorching desert. It successfully built its own stronghold, and with the stronghold as the center, it began to implement its plan - collecting 999 gold coins!
They are born to keep running around to collect gold coins from their targets. The wealth-seeking spirits are not sure which kind of gold coins they need, so they simply start searching for everything shiny, especially those made of gold.
The Money-Snatching Spirit is an individual that has lost its treasure chest, so it can only pile all the items it has collected in the gap behind the bookshelf.
Suo Cailing has carefully observed that even those humans who often clean the bookshelves with cleaning tools will not put their hands into the gap behind the bookshelf - because this kind of bookshelf built into the wall is not suitable for frequent movement.
It hides in the crevices during the day, waiting for the night to fall before taking action.
With the cover of night, Suo Cailing knew very well that the probability of his small body being discovered was extremely low, not to mention that Suo Cailing also had the natural ability to conceal his breath as a ghost-type Pokémon.
Looking at the "mountains" of golden items piled up around him, Suo Cailing's eyes glowed slightly. He began to look forward to the future when he would collect 999 gold coins and evolve into a legendary existence among the Suo Cailing clan!
"Ding~!"
Leaning against her most precious gold coin, Suo Cailing held her cheek, her consciousness slowly falling into a wonderful dream.
"Wang!"
At this moment, a distorted cry coming from far away made Suo Cailing open his eyes.
A look of panic flashed in Suo Cailing's eyes. Its intuition and senses were telling it that some bad guy was approaching it.
The aura is undoubtedly of its own kind, the same ghost-type Pokémon. According to Soulseeker's experience, it is daytime now, and ghost-type Pokémon like it should not come out to move around.
Resisting the urge to make a sound, Suo Cailing looked left and right, and finally could only hold his most regular gold coins to the place where he stored his collected items, and carefully hid his body and the gold coins in it, hoping not to be discovered.
