Chapter 809 Mushroom Pickers
Chapter 809 Mushroom Pickers——
Everything will come naturally.
Kashiwagi told Gladion what Liliae had asked him to convey.
The middle school boy was slightly stunned after hearing this, "... Yeah."
He nodded. Even though it hadn't grown to the point where he was satisfied, maybe it was time to go back and take a look.
At least go see your sister.
"thanks for treatment."
Gladion drank up the Moo-Moo milk.
When he put down the cup, he realized that he had been eating breakfast at Kashiwagi's house for almost a week without realizing it.
After each session, I sat down as a matter of course.
So shameless!
The intense shame that sometimes erupted during adolescence made him leave in a hurry.
Kashiwagi: “?”
"Happy?" Happiny, who came to collect the dishes, looked at Gladion rushing out the door, and was also puzzled.
But neither of them took it seriously, because there were more important things today——
Lizzie's test.
The requirement is to use the raw materials of the Shade Jungle to make a meal that will satisfy the Overlord Flame Queen Lizard.
Kashiwagi habitually drew a Q version of the Flame Queen Lizard, poked the tip of the pen on the white paper, and said: "A Pokémon with fire and poison attributes who usually likes to eat cherry berries. The stereotype is full."
Yesterday he specifically asked the multilateral phone to ask the two wild night-thief fire lizards what kind of tree fruits the Overlord Flame Queen Lizard likes to eat, in order to confirm its taste.
Otherwise, if it tastes disgusting, the perfect food will be discounted by half.
Not all Fire-attribute Pokémon like spicy food. Tastes and attributes will have certain trends but they are not fixed, but Flame Queen has not escaped this rule.
Cherry fruit is a spicy tree fruit.
If you add the poison attribute...
"What do you think of spicy mushroom chowder?" he asked Happiny.
The Alola region is located in the tropical and humid climate, which is very suitable for the growth of fungal crops. I believe that the shade jungle will not disappoint him.
Happiny didn't have any objection: "Happy!"
The advantage of Poison-attribute Pokémon is that you can eat most poisonous mushrooms without worrying about villains jumping in front of you or you lying flat on your face.
It is also not easy to miss the moment when the mushrooms are at their freshest.
As for the Akara curry suggested by Lizzie, on the one hand, this thing is a sweet curry flavored with mango, and it also has a bit of the bitterness of miracle seeds and resurrection grass, which does not suit the taste of the Overlord Flame Queen Lizard.
On the other hand, he personally has no feelings for Curry so he passed it directly.
But it is undeniable that curry is extremely popular in the Pokémon world, especially in the Galar region, which is modeled after the United Kingdom. The local enthusiasm for curry is comparable to that of the Pokémon Kingdom.
So Kashiwagi drew another casserole, and drew a lot of mushrooms and seasonings next to it, "Let's do it this way."
Details are adjusted based on the types of mushrooms and other side dishes produced in the Shady Jungle.
Mushroom chowder requires more than just mushrooms.
"set off!"
He waved his hand, and the three-headed evil dragon immediately flew out the door.
-
Shady jungle.
Located in the north of Akala Island, it is famous for the delicious food that can be picked and is known as a treasure trove of forest gifts.
Due to the overly dense tree canopy, not enough sunlight can penetrate into the woods, making the interior a little dim.
Fortunately, it did not cause any impact on the cypress.
He retracted the three-headed dragon and called out the heterochromatic Gengar that was hiding in the shadows.
"哓GA!"
Gengar stuck out his tongue excitedly, and swam around in the shadows on the ground as if he had eaten the superhuman Water-Water Fruit from One Piece.
The dim environment is very suitable for ghost-type Pokémon to move around.
It just so happens that I need its help to store food, and it would be too troublesome to carry a basket on my back.
"Huh? A good start!"
He suddenly went under a big tree, pushed aside the dense grass, dug out a mushroom with a red triangular dart-shaped cap, and looked at it carefully in the mottled sunlight.
[Sword Dance Mushroom], the official scientific name is unclear.
[Strength Enhancement] One of the raw materials for potions, non-toxic and thick, but unfortunately its taste is not among the best among many mushrooms.
Leave it alone for now.
He handed it to the waiting Gengar, who tucked it into his stomach with a grin.
The tree-shaded jungle was not a place that was sparsely populated. The successive gatherers had already trampled out a path on the ground that made it difficult for plants to grow, but it was also destined to be difficult to find the precious ingredients he needed along this path.
Therefore, it was only natural that he stepped into the deep jungle.
The trampled weeds made a crunching sound.
the good news is.
There are no snake Pokémon in the Shady Jungle, but there is one type of Pokémon that is even more dangerous than snake Pokémon.
——False mantis.
This fairy-like, bug-like Pokémon will sleep in the sun or hide in the grass. If someone makes some noise to disturb them, they will be attacked quite violently.
In the animation, the sound of Ash and Mao talking would make them furious.
You can see how fierce it is.
Kashiwagi didn't want to provoke this group of "terrorists", so he quietly said to Geng Gui: "It would be great if we can find the aromatic mushrooms."
As a valuable item in the game that can be sold at a high price, its greatest value is in being eaten, just like the black truffles that sold at a very high price in the previous life.
Only a little bit is needed to make the whole pot of soup fragrant, making it a perfect ingredient for making soup stock.
"Longa?"
Gengar tilted his head. He never cared much about food.
Kashiwagi said, "It's the soup we had on the cruise last time. The one you particularly liked, the one with the black bumps."
In a blink of an eye.
Gengar's memories flowed out from the corner of his mouth, "Geez..."
When they took a ship from the Ouray region to the Hoenn region, they had dinner in a high-end restaurant on the ship. The appetizer soup with a strange name made Gengar unable to stop eating it, and he begged Kashiwagi to order several servings.
That’s good stuff!
It suddenly became active, flying around like a fly, with its fat paws over its eyes as if watching.
clown.
Baimu shook his head helplessly. He caught a glimpse of a thin vine wrapped around a tree from the corner of his eye and thought to himself, "This can't be..."
He felt his way down along the vine, found the roots, and tentatively dug a little with a tool.
“What a yam!”
After confirming this, Kashiwagi's eyes lit up, and he quickly went around to a lower area to perform the Random Cloak Shovel Technique. Seeing this, Gengar also came up to help.
The wild yam was very long and thick. He dug one meter deep but still hadn't reached the bottom, so he quickly called Boskodora for help.
The giant steel snake's craftsmanship is too rough. If it were to do it, the yams would surely turn into paste along with the soil.
Bosco Dola is actually similar, but who can blame him for being so inefficient digging it himself?
It took a while.
A wild yam nearly two meters long was successfully unearthed.
Kashiwagi didn't know whether the presence of wild yams in the tropical rainforest environment of the Alola region was in line with the "laws of nature", but he was very happy anyway, feeling a sense of joy of harvest.
“It’s truly a treasure trove!”
He poked the root-like wild yam into Gengar's stomach, filled the soil back in and continued moving forward.
He got the two ingredients in a short period of time, and the process was as smooth as cooking itself, which inexplicably gave him a sense of excitement of buying for free.
"Got it! It's wood ear!"
"Little brown mushroom!"
“Morels!”
“This wild vegetable looks good, crisp and tender.”
"Finally I've seen you! Big Mushroom!"
"Hey! Red umbrella and white pole, let's lie down together after eating~"
"Are there any wild tofu or sweet potato flour?"
"Oh! Big rhizomes! Who dug them up and left them here? What a waste—they're rotten already, all right."
Baimu regretfully threw away the rotten large rhizome that looked like ginseng in his hand, and thought about the mole hole he had seen before, wondering whether he should go in and take a look.
Maybe it would be possible to go directly to the location of the Overlord Lantern Flower just like Xiaozhi and Mao did that time -
The overlord must fight!
The grass Z is clearly there waiting for you to take it. It would be a pity to miss it.
And there must be more collectible ingredients in the nest of the Overlord Pokémon, such as Precious Mushrooms, Precious Mushrooms, or Precious Mushrooms.
People should have dreams!
then.
Kashiwagi decisively found the mole hole that required him to lie down to get into.
Fortunately, it’s not that cramped inside, you just need to bend down slightly.
"哓GA!"
Gengar's cry for help made him turn his head, and then he saw the fat gray man stuck at the entrance of the cave. He couldn't help but show a speechless expression.
Wouldn't it be better to just sneak in through the shadow?
It has to be said that being dramatic is also a major feature of comedy Pokémon.
Snapped!
Many mobile phones turned on their rear flashes to illuminate the way ahead.
Although the caves that Xiaozhi goes to in the animation generally do not require any lighting and are as bright as the open air, in reality, caves without external light sources will only make people blind.
"It stinks."
Kashiwagi put on a gas mask, but it didn't matter to Gengar, a ghost with poisonous attributes.
It even volunteered to take on the role of vanguard.
It's just a gopher hole.
Wild Alola Diglett is definitely a must.
This type of Pokémon with a strong sense of territory is very hostile to uninvited guests, and it attacks as soon as it emerges from the mud.
Bang bang bang!
The flying mud balls were easily dodged by Gengar and Kashiwagi.
"Hypnosis."
"叏Ga~"
Gengar rose and fell and came behind Diglett, grabbed three of its hairs and pulled them hard. When the Diglett turned around in surprise, he successfully met the gaze that was emitting purple-red light.
"Di..."
The gopher fainted.
Baimu came to the mole, touched its three yellow hairs, and said, "So tough, this looks like a whisker?"
That's right.
A beard growing on top of the head.
Although Kashiwagi didn't quite understand why it was considered a beard, since the Pokémon professors all said so, he had no choice but to agree.
After a while.
The groundhog woke up slowly and saw a rather creepy smiling face. It was so scared that it trembled all over and shrank into the soil, ready to run away.
However, a black light controlled it in place.
【Black eyes】
"Hehehe!" Gengar laughed like a Soul Palace elder.
Kashiwagi's smile was equally vicious, and he thought, "Let me teach you a lesson about not being able to escape."
One of the most annoying wild Pokémon when playing the game is Diglett, because most of them have the [Sand Cave] trait and there is no way to escape, only to fight.
of course.
There must be some other purpose for not letting the gopher go away, other than revenge on it.
"You should know where the Overlord Pokémon is, right? If you take me there, I'll give you this as a reward." Kashiwagi took out a Poké Cube.
He became increasingly adept at dealing with wild Pokémon, especially at judging by their demeanor to see if his reward would be enough to tempt them.
But the mole's will is not strong.
Or it becomes less firm after seeing the Z bracelet.
The island pilgrimage challenger.
Tell me earlier!
There was an inexplicable hint of contempt in the mole's eyes.
But in fact, even if Kashiwagi revealed his identity at the beginning, it would not let him go easily. You know, chasing the challengers of the island pilgrimage is one of the fun of the mole hole.
"Di!"
Diglett collected two Poké Cubes and marched ahead aggressively.
while walking.
The mole suddenly stopped, climbed to the top of the cave covered with weeds and moss, and turned its whole body upside down.
Then it started digging.
Swish swish.
Dust falls.
A pitch-black object was dug out by it and fell to the ground with a plop.
Gengar didn't react, and Kashiwagi got excited first.
“It’s truffles!”
"Tick!"
Who would have thought that truffles could be found in gopher holes? They usually grow under trees... maybe there's a tree on top of it?
Another rare ingredient!
He quickly took out his Poké Cube and wanted to exchange it with Diglett, but was rejected.
"Why? Do you want to keep it for yourself?" Kashiwagi didn't know whether truffles were in the diet of the hamster, but it definitely wouldn't eat fungi.
The mole shook his head again.
Multilateral Phone: "It said it wanted to trade it for something else."
"With 'people'? Are you sure it's talking about people?"
"Yes, with humans."
Sure enough, he was not the only one who traded with wild Pokémon.
Kashiwagi lamented that although he normally wouldn't even glance at truffles when he saw them - after all, they cost money - he actually missed out on them at this moment when he could buy them for free.
So distressed!
Who would trade with wild Pokémon? A miner?
Probably!
At this rate, it would not be his turn to get the Aromatic Mushroom. How could someone who dared to trade with wild Pokémon only make the next move? There must be wild Pokémon on the ground as well.
Kashiwagi followed the mole and continued forward, and soon arrived at the end of a cave with an exit above.
Gopher: "Tick-tick!"
"哓GA!"
Gengar couldn't wait to squeeze up, but as expected, his fat body got stuck and his short legs flapped back and forth.
Kashiwagi sighed and put his head on the guy's ass.
"go with!"
Boo!
The fat gray man escaped as he wished.
He was about to turn around and thank the mole right after him, but he found out that the guy had already left.
So heartless.
Overlord's Residence
It is no different from other places. There are quite a lot of small mushrooms on the ground, and many big wood Ganoderma lucidum grow on the tree trunks.
Baimu glanced casually and saw a dead tree stump filled with various fruits.
"There are quite a lot of varieties, but it's a pity that there are not many ingredients."
He was quite sorry.
Before coming here, I imagined that there would be fragrant mushrooms in the Overlord’s residence. But when I got here, I realized that there were no big mushrooms, let alone fragrant mushrooms.
So...what about the Overlord?
Kashiwagi is waiting for the overlord Lan Mantis to emerge.
But the other party seemed not to be in the nest, and there was no sign of him after waiting for a long time.
Is it so embarrassing?
"Longa?"
Gengar was also dumbfounded, scratching his head and flying around looking for the missing Overlord Pokémon.
With nothing to do, Kashiwagi had to look around again, looking for ingredients that could be used in the pot. He has currently collected six edible mushrooms and three poisonous mushrooms, which are definitely enough for a meal.
But now that you're here, how can you just take this little?
Now that the Overlord Flame Queen Lizard has eaten it, their family must have a taste of it too!
When he squatted down to dig chicken mushrooms, a blurry figure appeared behind him and attracted Gengar's attention first.
"哓GA!"
"Got it, the Overlord is back?"
He picked up the chicken mushroom, turned around and was so scared that he almost dropped it.
The other person turned out to be a fifteen or sixteen-year-old girl in white clothes. She looked like a female ghost in the slightly gloomy jungle. Fortunately, she was carrying a bamboo basket and took the initiative to walk into the sunlight, so she could barely look like a human being.
Which good person comes to the forest wearing white clothes?
"Island Tour Challenger?" The other party spoke first.
