Thinking of this, Lu Li quickly called over the Little Fire Dragon, who was preparing to do some extra training.
"Little Red, I have a special training mission for you," Lu Li said solemnly, looking down at the Little Fire Dragon, who was looking at him with anticipation.
"Huo~"
(No problem! Leave it to me!)
The Little Fire Dragon excitedly patted its chest, indicating that it was no problem.
The Little Fire Dragon knew the value of its trainer. It wasn't bragging, but any Pokémon that had been specially instructed by the trainer would generally improve by leaps and bounds.
The Little Fire Dragon, unaware that it was about to become a Pal, was being manipulated by its trainer.
"I remember you seemed to like alchemy before, right?" Lu Li asked.
The Little Fire Dragon nodded excitedly.
Lu Li had previously said that it didn't have the talent for alchemy, and it had been disappointed for a long time.
"Although your talent isn't great, you can barely do some things. Come, let me teach you..." Lu Li pulled the Little Fire Dragon to his side.
"Next, what you need to do is extraction. See these ball fruits? First, you need to control the temperature and the condensation of the flames, roughly around..."
After spending about ten minutes explaining, Lu Li looked at the Little Fire Dragon expectantly.
"How is it? Can you do it? If you can't, we won't force it," Lu Li said, acting like they didn't have to do it if it was too hard.
Can't?
Hearing this, the Little Fire Dragon immediately perked up. How could a Pokémon say it couldn't do something?
"Huo~"
(I can definitely do it!)
The Little Fire Dragon patted its chest, guaranteeing it.
"If you can do it, that's good," Lu Li nodded in satisfaction. "Then let's start."
The Little Fire Dragon went to another small alchemy furnace and carefully placed the ball fruits into the furnace.
At the beginning, the Little Fire Dragon wasn't very skilled and made several mistakes in a row. Lu Li didn't discourage it at this time, but patiently explained where the mistakes were.
Half an hour later.
Under Lu Li's guidance, the Little Fire Dragon finally successfully extracted a ball fruit.
It could only be said that the Little Fire Dragon was worthy of its heaven-defying comprehension. Although extracting ball fruits wasn't difficult, it was already amazing for a Pokémon to be able to do it in half an hour.
Lu Li encouraged it, "Keep up the good work. There are still two backpacks waiting for you to extract."
Little Fire Dragon: "??"
The Little Fire Dragon looked at Lu Li with a dumbfounded expression.
Two backpacks?
Looking at the dumbfounded Little Fire Dragon, Lu Li nodded seriously, "Yes! It's a rare training opportunity."
Although it felt like something was wrong, the Little Fire Dragon obediently followed Lu Li's orders and continued the extraction.
Lu Li also started refining pills on the side, while also paying attention to the Little Fire Dragon.
Until the sun went down, the Little Fire Dragon collapsed in front of the alchemy furnace with a broken expression.
"Huo~"
(I can't do it anymore, I don't have a drop of energy left.)
The Little Fire Dragon said exhaustedly.
"Then go rest. Here, this is a freshly baked Fire Spirit Pill," Lu Li said, stuffing the pill into the Little Fire Dragon's mouth.
"Huo~"
The Little Fire Dragon, with the pill in its mouth, directly entered a baby-like sleep. There was no way around it, after a full 7 hours of energy extraction, it was truly exhausted.
Now there were enough materials to refine storage rings again.
Lu Li started refining space rings again.
The difficulty of refining storage rings wasn't actually high. In the world of cultivation, the reason why storage rings were precious was mainly the raw materials.
In less than two hours, Lu Li refined five rings and one bracelet.
The five rings were all 100m, and so was the bracelet.
The main reason he refined so many rings was to give them away.
Wei and Bao, the two sisters, definitely had to get one, and then there was Ekaterina and Yao Yifei. After all, he had really benefited from their help and care during this time.
This wave was also considered returning the favor. The rest Lu Li planned to give to Lili. Perhaps because of Yu Zhonggang's sudden death, Jin Fengjiao had recently become a lot more kind.
Lu Li was still somewhat grateful to the Yu family, especially Yu Lili, who could be considered his first female friend in this world.
The next difficult problem to deal with was those adult starter Pokémon.
Because there was no place to raise them, Lu Li had never touched that backpack, but it definitely wouldn't work to keep dragging this on.
The top priority was to find a place for the starter Pokémon to settle down.
To be honest, this feeling was actually quite uncomfortable.
It was like buying a luxury sports car, just wanting to drive it out and show off, but then realizing you couldn't afford the gas money, or even the parking fee...
This was very embarrassing.
It wasn't like Lu Li hadn't considered entrusting these starter Pokémon to Liu Li. Although Liu Li was very good to him, it wasn't to the point where he could trust her to this extent.
"Should I raise them in the ranch first?"
Lu Li quickly denied this option. There were too many people outside, and he might accidentally expose them.
Moreover, a group of starter Pokémon would inevitably leak information even if ordinary people saw them.
"So I still have to find a small secret realm, but now Ekaterina has left again," Lu Li thought dejectedly.
To refine a secret realm fragment, the time spent was secondary. What was really difficult was to first defeat the secret realm overlord, but the secret realm overlords of small secret realms generally had the strength of a gym leader, plus the overlord aura.
Lu Li didn't think Yao Yifei could defeat the secret realm overlord in the secret realm.
"After thinking it over again and again, Lu Li finally decided to borrow a chicken to lay an egg." Thinking of this, Lu Li scrolled to the very bottom of his phone.
Then he saw the name that he had only heard of and never actively contacted.
Qu Suxin, the Fairy-type Heavenly King, definitely knew about the matter of abducting the adult starter Pokémon. After all, he was now considered to be colluding with that person.
…………
Nandu.
Qu Suxin stood in front of the floor-to-ceiling window, looking down at Nandu from a high position. Behind her was a secretary holding documents.
"The Alliance shouldn't suspect anything, right?" Qu Suxin asked.
The female secretary shook her head, "No, at least our people haven't received any news."
"But I retrieved the data, and the Alliance didn't give me a reward."
Qu Suxin turned around and looked at the female secretary meaningfully.
The female secretary quickly explained, "That... Patriarch, the Alliance's reward has already been issued, but it may be a bit unexpected."
"There really is one?"
Qu Suxin raised her eyebrows, "Do you know what it is?"
"It's a message. The Council of Elders is still discussing whether to tell you that message as a reward."
"A message?"
Qu Suxin narrowed her eyes thoughtfully.
"What message?" Qu Suxin asked.
"To be precise, it's two messages, one is about the Rainbow Hero, and the other is about the Fairy King. As for which message it is, it depends on our people to operate, or it may be that the Alliance is waiting for our reaction."
"Rainbow Hero?"
Qu Suxin sneered.
Her Gardevoir had even seen the Shadow Lord, how could she not know who the Rainbow Hero was?
Unlike the Ideal Envoy, the value of the Rainbow Hero was actually not as great as the Ideal Envoy for people of their strength.
It was precisely because the value of the Ideal Envoy was too great that those aristocratic families would take the risk of assassinating Rein.
Qu Suxin said, "Speaking of this, I also remembered that Qu Gang has always wanted to travel, right?"
Qu Gang was the son of her older brother, but that brother of hers was quite unreliable. In order to break through to a higher realm, he actually ran to that ghostly place outside the Alliance to travel, and the most outrageous thing was that he even took his wife with him.
Now only Qu Gang and his younger siblings were left at home. Qu Gang was an ambitious breeder who had always wanted to venture out as a breeder.
She had been suppressing this matter, after all, the probability of a breeder getting into trouble was much higher than that of a trainer.
Even a wealthy family like the Qu family was very cautious when faced with a request from a younger generation to travel.
"Agree to him, and then let him accompany a commoner boy named Li Zhi on a trip. This can also be considered accompanying the prince on a trip."
The most recent novels are available on Liǔ 9 Shūbā!
The female secretary really wanted to ask who the prince was.
"The Li Zhi you mentioned, is he the one who participated in the college entrance examination competition?" the female secretary tentatively asked.
Qu Suxin nodded.
"Could it be that he is..."
The female secretary suddenly looked at Qu Suxin with realization.
She didn't expect the previous news about the Rainbow Hero, and considering Ho-Oh's favor, the identity of the boy named Li Zhi was already self-evident.
"This is indeed considered accompanying the prince on a trip," the female secretary also complained.
"The opportunities around the Rainbow Hero are often accompanied by risks and benefits. Will Qu Gang, as a breeder, be involved in any..."
The female secretary's tone was somewhat worried. The fates of these divine envoys were a bit like the protagonists in novels, and the Rainbow Hero was even more of a standard trash flow protagonist template.
The growth of the Rainbow Hero was often accompanied by many disasters.
Qu Suxin said coldly, "There is no great benefit in this world without risk. Tell Qu Gang about this matter thoroughly, and then let him make his own decision."
If Qu Gang really had an accident during his travels with the Rainbow Hero, then it could only be said that Qu Gang was not favored by fate.
How could you not pay if you wanted to gain?
The female secretary nodded.
"Let's talk about the Fairy King. As the Alliance's titled Heavenly King, why have I never heard of this news?" Qu Suxin asked, narrowing her eyes.
The female secretary smiled bitterly, "You know, although the Council of Elders hasn't suppressed us new wealthy families, they won't help us for no reason, let alone the news about the Fairy King."
Fairy King Xerneas, revered by the world as the God of Life, Lord of Fairies, God of Nature...
That was a true Level 1 God, and also the one in charge of life.
In the eyes of Fairy-type trainers, Xerneas was the ultimate faith.
Qu Suxin, as the Fairy Heavenly King, also had an almost fanatical admiration for Xerneas.
If she could get Xerneas' divine artifact, why would she need to go to the princess of the Mineral Kingdom?
"I want this news, at any cost!" Qu Suxin looked at the female secretary more seriously than ever.
The female secretary nodded and said, "Okay, I'll send people to work on it."
"You should get some rest early too. It's not early, and you haven't rested for almost two days," the female secretary advised with concern.
"I have to wait a little longer," Qu Suxin smiled meaningfully.
"Hmm?"
The female secretary looked at Qu Suxin in confusion.
"Wait for what?"
"Wait for a little guy's call."
Speak of the devil, no sooner had Qu Suxin's voice fallen than the phone rang in the room.
Picking up the phone and taking a look, the corners of Qu Suxin's mouth curled up slightly.
The matter of making the Ideal Envoy owe her a favor had come knocking again.
Qu Suxin smiled charmingly, "Hello? Little guy, do you have something to ask me so late?"
"That... Heavenly King Qu..."
Lu Li's slightly shy voice came from the phone.
Before Lu Li could finish speaking, Qu Suxin directly interrupted, "Call me sister."
Lu Li: "??"
Lu Li looked at the phone in his hand with a dumbfounded expression.
Fairy Heavenly King, would you like to hear what you're saying!
I'm 16 years old this year, and you're 32 years old. Rounding up, it's almost two rounds older. You want me to call you sister?
Although Lu Li's EQ wasn't high, his IQ was still a bit there.
Although he complained in his heart, Lu Li still sweetly called out "Sister Qu."
"Sister Qu, it's like this..."
Lu Li told the other party about the predicament he was facing.
There was nothing to hide, after all, Gardevoir already knew, and Gardevoir had helped.
"So... you want me to help you raise these shady starter Pokémon first?" Qu Suxin asked meaningfully.
Lu Li nodded, "Yes."
Qu Suxin: "The Alliance has never given up looking for this batch of starter Pokémon."
"Do you still care about these things?" Lu Li complained speechlessly.
You're almost betraying the Asian Alliance, do you still care about these trivial matters? When your Gardevoir robbed the data, she didn't even hesitate.
"Hehe."
Qu Suxin laughed charmingly, then said, "What I mean is that this matter is also very difficult for me, but I am willing to help you."
Lu Li suddenly understood.
Wasn't this just adding money? He was too familiar with it.
"Thank you, Sister Qu. I will remember your kindness in my heart, and I will definitely repay you in the future." Lu Li immediately drew a pie, of course, the pie he drew was real.
After achieving her goal, Qu Suxin smiled and assured, "You know it, I'll take care of this matter for you, and then when you find a place, I'll send these Pokémon over to you."
After sincerely thanking the other party again, Lu Li hung up the phone.
With complete information, Qu Suxin would definitely not offend him, a reserve Ideal Envoy, for a batch of adult starter Pokémon.
What he needed to do now was to maintain his persona and try to make the other party firmly believe that he was the Ideal Envoy.
Of course, the reason why Lu Li handed these starter Pokémon over to Qu Suxin was for another layer of meaning, which was to add insurance to his identity.
In case Qu Suxin found out that he wasn't the Ideal Envoy one day, with this batch of starter Pokémon, the other party shouldn't directly come over and kill him.
If they discovered his false identity beforehand, then he would consider this batch of starter Pokémon as Qu Suxin's compensation for taking care of him.
If they didn't discover it beforehand, even better. Once his strength grew to a certain level, he wouldn't be afraid of Qu Suxin turning against him after deceiving him. And by that time, he would have many ways to repay Qu Suxin for her help.
