Chapter 286: Dared not imagine how delicious it would be!
"Earth Tree Pillow: Exclusive to Tree Pillow Koalas. Increases the power of Grass-type and Ground-type skills by 20%. When standing on the earth, abilities will not be reduced."
After reading it, An Jie was stunned. This new tree pillow not only had special effects, but also had two.
The key is that the tree pillow is originally a part of the Tree Pillow Koala. It is not a held item, which means that it can also hold another item in battle!
This… This… This is too strong!
After reading the effect of the tree pillow, An Jie handed it to the Tree Pillow Koala, "Tree Pillow Koala, try it and see if it suits you."
After receiving it, the Tree Pillow Koala immediately hugged it tightly in its arms. Although it closed its eyes and didn't make a sound, An Jie still felt the relaxed and cheerful atmosphere all over its body.
Finally, it can sleep well!
"It's good that you like it." An Jie said happily.
Celebi was also happy to see this, flying around the Tree Pillow Koala's head and patting its forehead with its hand.
After eating a meal from An Jie, it felt very happy to be able to help An Jie and the Tree Pillow Koala.
"Celebi, thank you so much!" An Jie thanked Celebi gratefully.
"Bi~ Bi~" Celebi happily flew to the top of An Jie's head again, and patted An Jie's forehead with its hand.
It looks cute, but it insists on doing this kind of mature action that only elders do. The strong contrast directly amused An Jie.
Latios, Latias, Aegislash, Torterra, Sceptile, etc. were all watching here. An Jie smiled, and they also laughed.
At first, Celebi didn't know what everyone was laughing at. It looked at An Jie blankly, and then at the other Pokémon. When it realized that everyone was laughing at it, it angrily sat on An Jie's head and then pulled up two tufts of An Jie's hair to vent its anger.
What are you laughing at? I am originally the elder!
Indeed, Celebi doesn't even remember how old it is.
An Jie quickly begged for mercy and said, "I was wrong, I was wrong, I beg Master Celebi to spare my life!"
Hearing him say this in a funny tone, everyone laughed even more happily.
Happy times are short. Soon evening came, and An Jie bid farewell to the Pokémon.
"Everyone, it's getting late, we should leave!"
"Bi~~" Hearing this, Celebi looked reluctant. Once An Jie leaves, it may never be able to eat the food made by An Jie again.
Torterra and Sceptile were much more indifferent to An Jie's departure.
The food made by An Jie was indeed delicious, but they had only spent less than a day together, and their feelings were not deep enough to be reluctant to part.
"An Jie, I wish you a smooth journey." Torterra said, "Welcome to come again if you have the opportunity!"
"Kyu ka~" Sceptile nodded along. It was clumsy and couldn't say anything nice, so it could only silently echo Torterra.
An Jie nodded and said, "I will definitely come to see you again if I have the opportunity!"
After saying goodbye to the Pokémon, An Jie put Latios, Latias, Aegislash, and Salamence into their Poké Balls one by one, and then prepared to leave, holding the Tree Pillow Koala.
At this time, Torterra said, "Scyther, why don't you see An Jie off!"
This is the deepest part of the forest, and Torterra was worried that An Jie would get lost.
An Jie was chased here by Spearow and Fearow, and he really didn't know the way back, so he thanked Torterra gratefully:
"Thank you! Torterra, you've helped a lot."
"It's just a small matter, don't mind it!" Torterra said with a smile.
So, led by Scyther, An Jie left this paradise.
Coming out of the entrance, An Jie released Salamence and rode on it with Scyther.
Led by Scyther, An Jie quickly found his way back.
"Scyther, just send me here. I can go back by myself next."
Scyther nodded, then waved its wings and flew off Salamence's back, waving its scythe to say goodbye to An Jie as it flew.
"Sha~ Sha~" Goodbye, goodbye An Jie!
An Jie also waved his hand and shouted, "Goodbye, Scyther!"
As the two waved goodbye, Scyther gradually disappeared from An Jie's sight.
"Roar!!!" Hearing this, Salamence roared without saying a word, and then accelerated and rushed into the distance.
"Gah gah~~"
"Gah gah~~"
The Spearow and Fearow chased after them without hesitation.
They had been searching for An Jie in the forest for most of the day. They noticed An Jie riding Salamence into the sky just now, so they hurriedly chased after him.
Salamence was flying in front, and the Spearow and Fearow were chasing closely behind. Seeing that they were so persistent, An Jie had no choice but to say to Salamence:
"Let's go down and hide."
The aerial target was too big, and the Spearow and Fearow could see them at a glance.
"Roar~" Salamence nodded, made a rapid descent, and flew downwards.
After landing, An Jie quickly put the huge Salamence into the Poké Ball, and then climbed up a lush tree himself.
Just as he hid, he saw a large group of Spearow and Fearow flying over the top of the tree.
An Jie sighed: These Spearow and Fearow are probably the overlords of this forest! Too scary.
Just as An Jie breathed a sigh of relief because the Spearow and Fearow had flown past, a gust of breeze suddenly blew, and the wide leaves were blown open, revealing the Pokémon hidden among them.
These Pokémon were all hanging on the branches. They had golden, hard shells and dark, bright eyes, and were now staring straight at An Jie.
Kakuna, the Cocoon Pokémon, Bug and Poison type, the evolved form of Weedle. Their presence here also means that their evolved form, Beedrill, is also here!
A sudden bad feeling arose in An Jie's heart.
Sure enough, the next second, the buzzing of bees followed. An Jie looked through the gaps in the leaves and saw a group of Beedrill appearing outside, glaring at him with fierce eyes.
The Beedrill's temper is not much better than Spearow and Fearow!
The only thing that made An Jie feel lucky was that there were not many Beedrill in this group, only about a dozen, obviously just a small tribe.
The Beedrill were originally foraging outside, but suddenly noticed a large group of Spearow and Fearow flying over the trees where they lived. Because they were worried about the children at home, they rushed back in a hurry.
Unexpectedly, as soon as they came back, they saw a human squatting in their home sneakily.
Mistaking An Jie for coming to steal honey, the Beedrill launched an attack on him without saying a word.
Swoosh swoosh swoosh~~ A large number of Poison Stings shot towards An Jie. Even if he wasn't poisoned by being stabbed, he would definitely become a hornet's nest!
Before An Jie could order, the Tree Pillow Koala had already taken action.
It jumped out of An Jie's arms, raised the new tree pillow it had just obtained high, and the next second, the Ice Spinner skill was activated.
As the Tree Pillow Koala swung the tree pillow, a large amount of cold air burst out, and all the Poison Stings were instantly covered with a layer of ice and flew back.
"Hiss beep~ Hiss beep~"
The Beedrill were all shot down by the returned Poison Stings, one after another falling to the ground.
The Beedrill's levels were too low to withstand the Tree Pillow Koala's casual blow, so they all lost their ability to fight.
Seeing their parent being beaten, the Kakuna became agitated, their suspended bodies swaying back and forth on the branches, protesting to An Jue.
But all they knew was one skill, Harden, and they couldn't do anything but stare blankly.
Seeing this, An Jue reassured them, "Alright, alright, don't get excited. I don't mean any harm, and I won't hurt your parent!"
With that, he leaped down from the tree.
Looking at the Beedrill lying unconscious in front of him, An Jue fell into deep thought.
Why not just subdue them all?
Beedrill can also produce honey. Although the nutritional value of their honey isn't as high as the Combee's Sweet Honey, it's still a product.
Besides, An Jue only has two Combee right now, and the Sweet Honey production isn't very high.
They also haven't shown any signs of breeding offspring, making the plan to expand the group's scale seem distant.
Since that's the case, it's better to subdue a few Beedrill and bring them home. Not only can they produce honey, but they might also help the Combee reproduce.
Like Combee, Beedrill can also lay eggs.
However, he still had to ask the Beedrill for their opinion, in case they didn't want to go with him!
With this in mind, An Jue released Latias and Latios, letting them jointly release a healing wave. Before long, the Beedrill woke up one after another.
After waking up, the Beedrill looked at An Jue with wary eyes, but with the deterrence of Latias, Latios, and Komala, they didn't dare to act rashly.
An Jue didn't immediately make a request to subdue them, but instead apologized to them first.
"I'm sorry, I was being chased by Spearow and Fearow just now, and I only hid in your home in a moment of desperation. I'm really sorry, I really didn't mean any harm."
The Beedrill had heard of the reputation of Spearow and Fearow in the forest, so after hearing An Jue's explanation, they relaxed their vigilance slightly.
Then, An Jue said, "But I did offend you. How about this, I have something to eat here, consider it an apology!"
With that, An Jue took out a basin, poured clean water into it, and then took out a can of Honey Yuzu Tea, pouring it into the water and stirring it evenly. The originally clear water instantly turned golden, and at the same time, a rich, sweet aroma spread out.
Honey Yuzu Tea is a special-grade food that is particularly attractive to Bug-type Pokémon. How could this group of "unsophisticated" Beedrill withstand this temptation? Immediately, they all stared straight at the liquid in the basin.
An Jue smiled and said, "Everyone, try it quickly, it's very delicious!"
Beedrill are Pokémon that feed on honey, and what is a drink for An Jue and the others, Honey Yuzu Tea, is food for the Beedrill.
The Beedrill were a little hesitant at first, but as time went on, their hearts were itching from the aroma of the Honey Yuzu Tea.
They couldn't resist, they just couldn't resist!
In the end, they couldn't resist the temptation, and one after another, they gathered around the basin, gulping down the Honey Yuzu Tea.
Even the Kakuna on the tree became restless, they wanted to try it too!
Seeing this, An Jue said, "Kakuna, come and try it too!"
As soon as he finished speaking, the Kakuna fell from the tree one after another.
An Jue took out another basin, mixed the Honey Yuzu Tea in it, and then, together with Latias and Latios, carried the Kakuna to the edge of the basin.
Immediately, the Kakuna, like the Beedrill, began to gulp it down.
For the Beedrill and Kakuna, Honey Yuzu Tea was simply the ultimate delicacy. They couldn't find the words to describe this deliciousness, so they could only keep saying:
"Delicious! Delicious!"
Seeing that the time was right, An Jue finally asked, "Beedrill, Kakuna, would you like to come home with me?"
Hearing this, the Beedrill and Kakuna stopped eating and looked at An Jue in unison. After staring at him for a while, the Beedrill shook their heads in refusal.
"Sszzt beep~" No!
An Jue said in a tempting tone, "As long as you come home with me, you can have this Honey Yuzu Tea every day."
Hearing this, the Beedrill became hesitant.
Some gluttonous Beedrill even looked at their leader with anticipation.
An Jue continued to tempt them, "My home not only has Honey Yuzu Tea, but also many other delicious things, and large flower fields, which are many times better than this forest!"
Hearing this, the Beedrill became even more eager.
Honey Yuzu Tea is already so delicious, how delicious would the other delicious things be!
For a moment, the Beedrill's mouths began to secrete saliva like crazy.
"Sszzt beep~ Sszzt beep~"
"Sszzt beep~ Sszzt beep~"
… …
Several Beedrill even put their heads together and discussed it.
An Jue wasn't in a hurry, and just waited silently for them to come to a conclusion.
Just then, a bright blue and white light suddenly emerged from a Kakuna's body, and the Beedrill were immediately shocked.
When they realized that the Kakuna was evolving, they were ecstatic.
However, this Kakuna's evolution was just the beginning. Its evolution wasn't over yet, and the light of evolution emerged from the body of the second Kakuna.
Then came the third, the fourth…
In the end, all the Kakuna completed their evolution.
The Beedrill quickly realized that the children's evolution was related to the food they had just eaten.
Their race is indeed a Pokémon that evolves relatively easily, and these children at home were indeed approaching the edge of evolution.
But now that the children suddenly evolved at the same time, it could no longer be described as a coincidence.
For a moment, the Beedrill's gazes towards An Jue became fiery.
As long as they eat this kind of food every day, can they become stronger?
Although Beedrill are often called the forest bullies, weakness is also their synonym. They are completely tyrannical because they always appear in groups.
"Sszzt beep~ Sszzt beep~" We are willing to go with you! Please take us with you!
The Beedrill leader said impatiently.
Hearing this, An Jue's face lit up with joy. After the Kakuna finished evolving, he took out Poké Balls and placed them in front of the Beedrill one by one, saying:
"Then we'll be counting on each other from now on!"
"Sszzt beep~ Sszzt beep~" The Beedrill nodded, reached out their arms and tapped the button on the Poké Balls, and then turned into red light and were collected into the Poké Balls one after another.
Then, An Jue released the Beedrill leader again, and under its guidance, found the hive built by the Beedrill in the canopy of the big tree.
The hive also stored a lot of honey that they usually brewed, which was their food for raising offspring.
Since they were leaving, the honey should of course be taken away together.
An Jue put the entire hive into the system backpack, so it could continue to be used in the future.
Then, he quietly sneaked towards the outside of the forest. The Spearow and Fearow were still searching for his traces.
After a difficult sneak, An Jue finally escaped the forest.
As soon as he came out, he released Salamence, rode him and flew quickly towards the manor, and finally returned to the manor before dark.
