Chapter 203

Nemona was getting impatient from waiting.

If she had known this Klawf was so weak and didn't need Arven as combat power at all, she should have let him bring some kitchen utensils to have a picnic by the way!

After a battle, not only was Nemona a bit hungry, but even her Pawmot was the same, soon drooling as it looked at the crab legs scattered all over the ground...

"This..., it's clearly that you guys are too amazing, okay! This Titan Klawf is a road bully that even Elite Trainers can't handle!"

Arven scratched his head.

He originally thought it would be a bitter battle, so even though he wasn't good at raising Pokémon, he planned to temporarily capture a Pokémon as immediate combat power.

However, he seemed to have underestimated Brother Qingyu's strength.

Even commanding Riolu, which hadn't evolved yet, he could win with a crushing posture when facing a Titan-level Klawf...

Although it was a bit awkward and he seemed to have become the redundant one, at least the ending was good.

"Then, next is to go to Klawf's cave to find the Herba Mystica, right?"

"Okay, okay, let's go!"

Speaking of this, Nemona was no longer sleepy and instantly recovered her energetic appearance.

"However, there is also a small problem now."

Qingyu reached out to hold his chin, and while observing the surroundings, he asked a soul-searching question.

"The Titan Klawf fainted directly, so how do we know where its cave is?"

"..."×2

The scene fell into silence instantly.

I don't know how long it had been, but the Titan Klawf, which felt like it had chatted with its great-grandmother for a long time in a dream, finally woke up slowly.

Its whole body felt like it was falling apart; what exactly happened?

Klawf recalled for a while before suddenly remembering what happened before.

That unscrupulous Riolu!

And its Trainer too; his heart must be black if cut open!

Its body shivered with fear.

After carefully observing the surroundings for a week and confirming that they had left, it finally breathed a sigh of relief.

Fortunately, at least they didn't seem to be coming for it, and no parts were missing from its body; it should recover after going back to eat some grass and sleep for a while...

While walking sideways toward its hidden cave in a staggering manner, Klawf also thought to itself:

When I recover from my injuries, I must take revenge when I see those two annoying guys again!

Thirty years east of the river, thirty years west of the river, don't bully the poor crab!

Elbowing open the rock wall that served as a natural barrier, the pungent herbal fragrance from inside the cave came instantly.

However, before Klawf could drill in, it heard a voice from hell behind it.

"Riolu, Vacuum Wave!"

Its back suffered a heavy blow instantly, and before the weak Klawf could react, it lost consciousness again instantly.

"Mr. Qingyu, this move is really effective!"

The figures of the three Qingyu appeared behind Klawf, and Nemona soon let out an exclamation of admiration.

As expected of Mr. Qingyu, his brain is really good!

As for Arven on the other side, he sighed for this unlucky Klawf and put his hands together.

Although there was no other way, he always felt that Brother Qingyu's method was inexplicably a bit...

Dirty?

In a sense, Brother Qingyu is really pure enough as a Trainer.

Hope the crab is okay.

After crossing the Klawf that fell again, Qingyu soon discovered quite a few strange-looking herbs in the cave.

They should be the legendary Herba Mystica brought out of the Great Crater of Paldea by Arven.

I remember, the Stony Cliff Titan should correspond to Sweet Herba Mystica, right?

While Qingyu was thinking, the more professional Arven had already walked up and reached out to pick one of them.

After carefully observing it and comparing it repeatedly with the content recorded in the books, he finally revealed a smile and turned to look at Qingyu:

"That's right, this is the 'Sweet Herba Mystica' recorded in the book!"

"Oh oh oh!!!"

Qingyu didn't have much reaction and just smiled faintly, but Nemona appeared exceptionally excited.

"Then, since the battle is over, let's start our picnic now!"

I have to say, the sandwich with stuff mixed in is indeed powerful.

After Qingyu took a bite of the sandwich made by Arven, the multi-layered taste in his mouth exploded instantly, bringing a special taste experience.

Although things like Herba Mystica are only a small part of the cuisine, they play a crucial role in the taste.

Perhaps I should bring some seeds back and open a farm at the Sun Gym to grow them myself?

This idea only appeared for an instant before being immediately rejected by Qingyu.

The reason is very simple—

He doesn't know how to farm.

However, it is indeed possible to pluck some seeds first; maybe I will capture other Pokémon that can farm in the future?

If one wants to make the Sun Gym bigger and stronger, besides partners as combat power, life-type Pokémon are also a pretty good choice.

If it really doesn't work, just pack that Klawf and take it back; looking at it, it should be a professional...

Qingyu slandered in his heart.

"Is there any more? I want more!"

Nemona wiped the breadcrumbs left at the corner of her mouth, raised her right hand high again, and looked at Arven with eager eyes.

"Of course, but you have to wait a little bit."

Arven revealed a gentle smile, reached out to break off a small piece of the sandwich, and sent it to the mouth of Mabosstiff, who was lying beside him.

"Eat a little, maybe it will be good for your injuries."

"Awoo..."

Mabosstiff responded weakly, and while eating the sandwich, it also licked Arven's face with its tongue.

"Mabosstiff's body seems to be really better!"

Noticing that it had recovered a little energy, Arven was so excited that he was almost crying.

"Lu?"

After sharing half of the sandwich with extra ingredients from Qingyu, Riolu took a small bite and instantly felt that its body seemed to be full of strength.

At the same time, a beam of white light appeared inadvertently, and the overflowing energy was soon absorbed back by Riolu.

No, now is not the time to evolve.

Master Mustard said that before completing all the trials of the Master Dojo on the Isle of Armor, it is best not to evolve in advance...

So, I still need to endure for a while longer.

I have already completed more than half of Master Mustard's three trials with sweat and effort.

It shouldn't be too long before I completely learn the "Invisible Fist" technique of the Master Dojo.

"???"

Qingyu was dumbfounded; how come Riolu was going to evolve after eating a bite of the sandwich?

And it turns out the evolution mechanism of Pokémon is really the same as in the game, where one can hold it back by oneself!

He subconsciously looked at Eevee and Miraidon beside him, and after confirming that they were not unusual, he finally breathed a sigh of relief.

Miraidon, this slacker, is fine; if Eevee evolved now, wouldn't the Eevee Z I just got become a one-time item!
