Chapter 496: Zhimi Returns
The strategy for conquering the Flame Queen Lizard tribe will be decided tomorrow.

After the Houndoom tribe has recuperated, the Mahua Dog and the former Houndoom leader will lead them to defeat the Flame Queen Lizard tribe and complete the unification.

Luo Mu still would not show up to help, hoping to complete this task with the minimum power of the Houndoom tribe itself.

of course.

In terms of assistance, Monarch Snake has also been prepared for a long time. It and Milotic will make certain modifications to the battlefield to make it more restraining against the Flame Queen Lizard tribe.

Although Flame Queen and Salamander are Poison and Fire attribute Pokémon, they are essentially reptiles. Once the surrounding temperature gets cold, their movements will become more or less slow.

Milotic's "White Mist" move can perfectly achieve this effect.

If they set fire to try to raise the temperature, it is time for Dalupi and Houndoom, who have the "fire-starting" attribute, to come into play.

There is no need for any unreasonable suppression by aliens or deus ex machinas. Instead, with certain assistance, the Houndoom tribe can win the battle that has lasted for a long time.

As for the follow-up arrangements for these Flame Queen Lizards, Luo Mu and the Lotus Crown King have also considered it.

Those among them who are willing to eat human food are asked to be trained by Lip, who runs a cosmetics and perfume business.

Those who don't want to deal with humans will be taken by the Lotus Crown King to the vicinity of Xueza Town, where there are many idle caves to accommodate them.

The surrounding resources are quite abundant, no worse than here, and more importantly, I can enjoy them all to myself without the Houndoom tribe taking half of them.

If it is not rich, Bud Crown King can make it rich.

Before returning to the farm, Luo Mu went to the creek as usual to check on the status of the saplings that had just been transplanted in the orchard.

However, this time, he was followed by the twisted dog and the little blacksmith who came here for the first time.

The mosquito coils and frogs had just left not long ago, and the soil where the saplings were growing was still slightly moist, obviously because they had just been watered.

Luo Mu had been planning to leave after watching, but just as he raised his foot, he heard the sound of flapping wings.

Look back.

We discovered that it was the Tropical Dragon carrying the Huhu siblings, and the Fengmi Dragon flying towards us.

The three Pokémon combined weigh more than half of its weight.

The fact that it can still fly like this only shows that Luo Mu and the monarch snake have kept it in very good health.

The leaf-like wings flapped several times in succession, creating a whirlwind on the ground, causing the branches and leaves of the saplings to sway slightly, and the tropical dragon landed smoothly.

Sister Huhu and brother Huhu shrank directly into their shells, rolled down, and landed quickly on the ground.

Fengmi Dragon had to try several times before it could move its increasingly clumsy body after its evolution to land on the ground.

"Sizzle~"

Sister Huhu emerged from her shell, swung her forelimbs, and greeted Luo Mu in a friendly manner.

Little brother Huhu followed suit, and his socially anxious personality improved a lot, and he gradually became cheerful.

"Woo~"

The tropical dragon stretched out its neck and rubbed its foster mother, the monarch snake, affectionately. The honey dragon also ran over happily to take credit for it.

original.

Considering that the newly selected orchard has not yet been completely included in the farm, it would be a pity if a wild Pokémon passed by and destroyed the weak saplings after erecting a fence.

Originally, the Roentgen Cat was planning to deal with it here for a few nights and guard the orchard, but the four Pokémon volunteered to do their part.

As soon as I arrived, I ran into Luo Mu and the others.

Properly providing emotional value can help increase Pokémon's motivation.

Luo Mu was very considerate and praised them one by one. Then he looked at the monarch snake.

His eyes were full of urging, suggestion and encouragement.

Monarch snake: “.”

The monarch snake, unable to keep its composure after being attacked by several pairs of starry eyes, could only be defeated helplessly and praised them with stiff movements.

It’s all Luo Mu’s fault for reading some parenting tips all day long, causing it to suffer as well.

Why suffer?

Because Luo Mu often practices on himself.

I don't understand how Mimikyuu enjoys it so much.

Luo Mu felt something was not right when he heard the tropical dragons say they were planning to keep watch here all night.

The temperature has been dropping recently, and it is even colder at night. The fruit tree seedlings are kept warm at night, but if the tropical dragons want to stay here, they will have to be exposed to the cold wind outdoors.

This is not appropriate.

Luo Mu thought about it and immediately came up with a plan.

I have a plan!
He turned his attention to the monarch snake, and also the little blacksmith who was discussing with sister Huhu and brother Huhu whether the shell or the hammer was harder was also targeted by him.

A small blacksmith can draw the blueprints of a hammer. So if he crosses over to other fields and draws the blueprints of a vine house that can be used to shelter from wind and rain, wouldn't that be a piece of cake?
As for the vine house, it will depend on the monarch snake whose maternal love has awakened to find a solution.

As it was getting dark, Luo Mu returned to the farm with the monarch snake, the twisted dog and the little blacksmith.

Fortunately, although it took a lot of time, at least the temporary vine house to shelter the tropical dragons from wind and rain was built.

Worried that it would be inconvenient for the little blacksmith to climb the mountain late at night, Luo Mu simply let it stay on the farm tonight and it would be the same if it went back tomorrow.

Now that the young blacksmith has an endless supply of materials provided by Luo Mu and an inexhaustible supply of fire, his forging skills are improving rapidly, so he doesn't need a little time to practice.

After dinner, I simply held hands with Ergui and slept in the same bed.

Early the next morning.

The Blue Jays and Steeljays arrived over the farm on time, responsible for driving away the flying Pokémon with bad intentions. At the same time, they picked up baskets of packaged fresh milk and flew to every place in Flat Disk Town.

Early in the morning, the little blacksmith carried the sandwiches and Moo Moo milk prepared by Zhihuixing for him and walked towards his "studio".

Luo Mu got up a little later than the young blacksmith, but he dressed up specially.

It’s not that I have to go to college for classes. Today is Saturday, one of the regular weekends off.

He dressed more formally because he was going to pick someone up at the airport in Niaoguang City.

I don’t know what Limone was thinking. He actually let Hitlon bring Yurika, who was not even ten years old yet, to fly from the neighboring Carlos on an international flight.

Although there is a saying in the Pokémon world that children become adults after receiving their first Pokémon at the age of ten, these parents are really carefree in a sense.

The battle between the Houndoom tribe and the Flame Queen Lizard tribe will be launched later while the weather is cool and the air humidity is high.

Monarch Serpent and Milotic have already set off, and Zhihuixing, who is in control of the overall situation on behalf of Luo Mu, has also changed into his suit.

"You seem to be in high spirits?"

Looking at Zhi Huixing, who was dressed as a military strategist, Luo Mu's mouth twitched, revealing an expression that was difficult to describe.

Zhi Huixing smiled slightly and gently waved the fan in his hand, "It is my duty as a military advisor to share the worries of the young master."

"Please rest assured and leave, young master. I will definitely lead the 'army' to a great victory in this battle." At this moment, Zhi Huixing was like Zhuge Liang who had everything in his hand, full of the temperament of a military strategist who had planned everything out.

Luo Mu: “.”

I'm addicted to cosplay.

However, the first impression given by Zhihuixing's appearance is mostly associated with "military advisor", "sage" and "wise man", so it is understandable that it is interested in this aspect.

Even though he was complaining, Luo Mu said to it with a trusting look on his face: "Then I'll leave it to you."

According to the contact with the two siblings, after picking them up at the airport today, he will stay in Niaoguang City for a day and accompany them to visit the most developed city in the Padilla region, which is similar to Miare City in the Kalos region, and then bring the two guests back to the farm in the evening.

He then confidently handed over the affairs of the Flame Queen Lizard tribe to Zhi Huixing.

Thinking of this, Luo Mu called the Roentgen cat and rode on Dragonite to leave the farm.

The last time I went to the Kalos area, the Roentgen cat was not there. This time, I must let it meet the Lek cat of Citron.

I think it would be particularly interesting for people of the same clan to meet each other.

nine in the morning.

Padia region, Niangguang city.

With the Roentgen cat by his side, Luo Mu carried a bag of bread bought from Uncle Youren and went straight to the Nongguang International Airport.

"I remember that the flight of Citron and Yurika seemed to be Carlos Diamond Airlines D0719."

Luo Mu was talking to himself as he looked at the flight schedule information scrolling on the screen in the airport lobby. He didn't even notice that someone was suddenly standing behind him.

It was the Roentgen cat that discovered the other party's traces at the first time, but he was not sure about the other party's relationship with Luo Mu, and he felt that the other party had no ill intentions, so he did not stop it.

Suddenly, he felt his shoulder being patted a few times. Luo Mu, who was browsing the flight information, subconsciously said, "It's not like you to be naughty, Roentgen Cat."

But in the next second, he immediately realized something was wrong.

When a Roentgen cat calls itself, it usually rubs its head against it, or makes a direct sound.

How could he possibly stand up straight and pat himself on the shoulder?
I glanced down and saw that the Roentgen cat did not stand up, but was looking back at something.

Luo Mu understood instantly, and while wondering who it was, he turned his head.

The person who came into view was a man with blond hair.

".So it's you?"

Luo Mu said in surprise.

The man in front of him was still wearing a clean white chef's uniform with a blue scarf neatly hung on his chest. Luo Mu knew from the suitcase he was carrying that it must be full of kitchen utensils.

The visitor was none other than Shimi, one of the Four Heavenly Kings of Water in the Kalos region, the elegant chef.

"It's been a while since we last met. How have you been lately, Luo Mu?"

Shimi nodded slightly and extended her hand to Luo Mu in a friendly manner.

Luo Mu extended his hand back and shook it, asking curiously, "Didn't you finish your training? The Kalos region is in the limelight. Why did you come to Padiya again?"

He remembered that the last battle dinner was essentially Shimi's way of showing the results of his practice to the Carlos celebrity circle in order to increase his fame and reputation.

Later, he also paid attention to the news in the Kalos area. It seemed that since then, Zhimi's restaurant has become completely popular.

Celebrities and the fashion world from the entire Kalos area have been flocking to make reservations at the restaurant, and it seems like the booking numbers have been booked until the end of next year.

Shimi must be very busy recently, so why did he just leave the restaurant and come to Padilla?
"As agreed, I came to visit your farm to buy better ingredients, isn't that okay?"

Shimi said teasingly.

Unexpectedly, Luo Mu took it seriously and said thoughtfully: "Well, it's not impossible."

Rather, this is just timely relief!

Unexpectedly, Luo Mu took it seriously. Zhimi quickly explained: "Although I also know that the ingredients in your farm are of top-notch quality, this time, I did come to Padiya for other things."

Luo Mu was not impatient, but asked curiously: "Then the respected King Zhimi, can you satisfy my curiosity?"

"Of course, it's my honor that you listen to my troubles."

Zhimi smiled bitterly and told the story.

original.

It was precisely because of the restaurant's great success that he suddenly visited Padilla during his busiest time.

To put it bluntly, Shimi pursues things that combine food and art, just like Mikoli who pursues beautiful and gorgeous food, and has extremely high demands on himself and his works.

Artists often have some weird obsessions that are not recognized by the world.

The restaurant's great success did not make Zhimi happy, but instead made him feel depressed and suffocated.

The two of them sat together on a chair at the airport. Zhimi held Luo Mu's hand, looking like he was complaining to his best friend.

"You know, every day when I open my eyes, I have to face orders from the opening of the store until late at night. In order to maintain a high standard of production, not only am I forced to slack off in Pokémon training, but I even have no time to develop new works."

"This kind of life is not what I want or pursue. I simply closed the store these days and wanted to find Mr. Haidai and get answers from him."

To Zhimi, Haidai is a very open-minded and sober person. Through communicating with him, Zhimi is also impressed by Haidai's conversation. When he is confused, the first thing he thinks of is to ask questions to the experienced Haidai.

After listening to the whole thing, Luo Mu thought to himself, as expected.

No wonder when I look at Zhimi, I always feel that his expression seems to have changed a little.

So this is ah.

Luo Mu looked at Zhimi with sympathy. After hearing what the other party said, he realized that Zhimi had faint dark circles under his eyes.

I think he must have been tortured.

On the one hand, I have appointments scheduled until the end of next year, and on the other hand, I am almost obsessed with the "perfection" of my work. It is difficult to compromise between the two.

In the end, Shimi chose to go to a foreign country again to find his own answers before everything collapsed.

Whether you compromise or make drastic changes.

"Thanks a lot."

Patting Zhimi on the shoulder, Luo Mu agreed with his idea.

"In this case, you can indeed look for an experienced chef like Mr. Haidai, and perhaps you can find your own answer."

"I thought so too, thank you."

"After I said everything that was stuck in my heart, I felt much better."

Zhimi was very grateful to Luo Mu for listening to her and smiled faintly.

"Of course, the previous agreement still stands. After I finish dealing with my own affairs, I hope you can agree to my request to come to your house."

"The top-notch ingredients from your farm are indispensable to Chef Shimi's culinary creations. It would be great if we could purchase some of them."
