Chapter 4 Variety Optimization Negotiation Master "Mr. Xia Ye. Well, I understand. As a ranger, you must know more than me, a layman."
Ma Li doesn't dislike people who do their jobs. If a trainer's duty is to cultivate powerful Pokémon and try his best to win every game, then a ranger's duty is to protect everything in the forest.
"Then let's exchange contact information. If you need help, you can call me. I know a group of very good people, and they will definitely be willing to protect Sunset Forest." Ma Li took out her mobile phone from her coat pocket.
That is a Rotom mobile phone, a new era technology product, equipped with many functions, and it houses a Pokémon called Rotom, which can communicate with people and make operation more convenient.
Mali's Rotom mobile phone case is composed of two colors: pink and black, with the Spike Town Gym logo in the middle. This model is currently on sale in Spike Town.
"What a coincidence, my phone is out of battery."
Xia Ye awkwardly picked up the extremely retro mobile phone and showed it to Ma Li.
"Isn't this an antique that even the oldest grandpa in town doesn't know how to use?"
Ma Li was unexpectedly venomous, but she was right. This phone indeed looked like a product of the last century.
"Okay, I'll leave you my phone number. I just happen to have a pen and paper with me."
Ma Li walked to the table and took out a small notebook. Xia Ye saw that the first few pages were full of words, and it was about halfway through that there was a blank space.
"Here, Mr. Xia Ye." Ma Li quickly finished writing and then tore it off and handed it to Xia Ye.
"Oh, if there is a situation that I can't handle, I will definitely ask you to help me." Xia Ye took it and nodded. The numbers on the white paper were beautifully written.
"Huh, I feel a little tired, so I'll go back first," Ma Li picked up her backpack and turned around, "You must remember to keep that secret!"
"Don't worry, I'm very strict with my words. Also, I wish you good luck on your journey as a trainer."
"Yes." Ma Li walked to the door and stopped, then turned around slightly. She put two slender fingers on her cheeks and raised the corners of her mouth slightly, showing her signature smile.
Then, she put down her hands, returned to her usual expressionless face, walked out of the door, and ran away quickly with a creaking sound on the wooden ladder.
"This feeling is really youthful. Okay, now it's time for us to deal with the problem. Let's go, Sound Monkey."
"Roar~" The sound monkey waved his wooden stick and made a cheerful sound. Now he is very happy as long as he stays with Xia Ye.
On the other side, Mali, who was walking in the forest, whispered to Morubeko:
"Molubeke, do you think my smile just now can respond to Mr. Xia Ye's encouragement?"
"Momo~" Morubeke muttered in reply as he ate the fruit.
"Huh? It's far from enough. You are so strict!" Ma Li quickly stroked Molubeke's little head, "Sure enough, I still haven't practiced enough. When will I be able to respond to everyone's encouragement with a natural smile? "
Ma Li repeated the action just now, thinking that she still couldn't do it. She sighed silently and walked in the direction of Spike Town.
"Is this the prickly fruit tree?"
The fruit trees in front of Xia Ye didn't look like anything special, after all, the most obvious fruits had completely disappeared.
"According to the information from the ranger assistant, the melon fruit is the favorite food of bird Pokémon."
There was always something strange about the voice in his heart. This voice was completely serving the forest ranger, so Xia Ye simply called it the forest ranger's assistant.
"I remember its effect is to reduce the damage of flying-type moves. Well, it is the same type of tree fruit as the thorn fruit."
"The piercing fruit reduces the damage of evil-type moves, so it should be the favorite food of evil-type Pokémon, which is also the favorite food of Morubeks."
Originally, Xia Ye planned to optimize the quality of the melon fruit trees to attract bird Pokémon to settle in the forest, but this newly acquired ability changed his mind.
[Obtain the ranger skill Forest Contract. Effect: Make an agreement with the Pokémon living in the forest. Note that the number of agreements is linked to the favorability. 】
"optimization!"
Xia Ye's hands emitted a dazzling green light, and the knocking monkey standing on his shoulders widened his eyes. His Xia Ye could actually glow?
As the light dissipated, the piercing fruit tree quickly produced flowers, developed and then bore fruit. In less than a while, the branches were covered with huge fruits. "Successful, please pick the fruits from the high trees, Monkey, and leave the rest to me."
The knocking monkey didn't understand what was going on now, so many fruits suddenly grew. Is this consistent with the rules?
"Hoohoo!"
However, it would not refuse Xia Ye's request. It climbed up the tree trunk nimbly, and then quickly picked the thorn fruits.
"Well, then I have to work hard too."
Xia Ye was very excited and reached out to pick the fruits. After about ten minutes, they finally filled the bags. Even so, there were still many fruits hanging on the fruit trees.
"What a terrifying ability."
Xia Ye sighed, reached out and plucked two berries, handed one to the sound-tapping monkey, and placed the other on his mouth.
"Eat, Tone-Tapping Monkey, the food after labor is the sweetest."
The pink prickly fruit bursts with sourness when you bite it, making your saliva secrete and whet your appetite. After the sourness disappears, there is an endless aftertaste of sweetness, making people unable to resist taking another bite.
"Oh, I didn't expect the guests to come so quickly."
A group of Morubeke suddenly appeared, surrounding Xia Ye and the knocking monkeys. A rough count showed that there were only thirty of them, but the specific number should be more.
The black electric rats have extremely fierce expressions, and their red eyes seem to have lost their minds. Only food can satisfy their hunger.
"drink!"
Xia Ye held two tree fruits in one hand and threw them out to the group of Molubeks. The group of Molubeks jumped and fought for them. The Molubek who touched first directly stuffed the whole fruit into his mouth. among.
"Tone-tapper monkeys, follow my example and throw the fruit at them!"
"Roar!"
The knocking monkey jumped into the bag, threw a tree fruit and knocked it away with a wooden stick, and another Morubeke ate the tree fruit.
During the throwing process, Xia Ye made a surprising discovery. Just two fruits made Morubek regain his calm and lose interest in the fruits. Did the variety optimization also increase the satiety?
"This is the last one!"
The remaining black morubeko ate the flying thorn berries and regained its composure. Now the group of morubekos are looking at Xia Ye and the knocking monkeys with cute eyes.
"Morubekos!"
Xia Ye looked at the electric mice around him and pointed at the harsh fruit tree behind him.
"The fruit tastes good, right? In the future, I will let more similar fruit trees appear in the forest. I just need you to agree to one request!"
Morubeko looked at each other. This was the most delicious tree fruit they had ever eaten, and it was very filling. So there was only one answer.
"Momo~~"
The Morubeks shouted at the same time, which roughly meant that no matter what the instructions were given, after all, Morubek's life-long dream was to collect berries.
"Very well, my request is very simple. If the bird Pokémon do not take the initiative to attack you, you are not allowed to attack them, okay?"
【The agreement is achieved, the agreement is achieved, the agreement is achieved.】
The same voice kept echoing, Xia Ye nodded with satisfaction, now part of the plan was successful.
The knocking monkey stuck out his head and looked up at Xia Ye with admiring eyes. He didn't look like a forest ranger, but more like the king of the forest!
