Not a Trainer This Time

Near noon, Naoki and the lizard cleared a small plot of land for planting and moved the chopped wood and stone into the utility room for storage. "Goo~

"

After a busy morning, the moto lizard's stomach gurgled.

It looked down and said loudly: "Gaaaa

Naoki heard this voice and smiled, "Wait a minute, I'll make lunch." The

motorbike lizard immediately became happy: "Gao~"

They washed the handles in the sink outside and returned to the wooden house. The

motorcycle lizard sits under the eaves to cool off, while Naoki takes out the ingredients and gets busy.

Today's lunch is still hot noodle soup, but the difference is that Naoki added a little wild leek found in the ranch to make it more flavorful.

Once born and ripened, this time it was successfully completed in just a few minutes.

Putting the noodles in a bowl, Naoki looked down and noticed that the grade of the hot noodle soup had changed from C- to C, and the time for cold protection had increased by five minutes.

"Sure enough, the ingredients also affect the evaluation of the dish."

Naoki picked up the bowl and put it in front of the motorcycle lizard who had been waiting at the table early.

The motorcycle lizard looked down and saw that the bowl was still filled with that strange noodles, and his face suddenly showed a pitiful expression.

"Gaa

"Gaa

Looking at the motorcycle lizard who was holding the bowl and drinking noodles, Naoki ate the noodles in the bowl with a sad face. "The rest of the

money will be spent very quickly after buying food, the land has just been turned over, the seeds can be planted tomorrow, and it will take a month to mature..."

The farmland occupied by weeds was somewhat hard and unsuitable for the growth of crops, and this morning Naoki turned them over and poured water into them to make the soil soft.

Although there is no fertilizer, the good thing is that the crop of turnip does not have high requirements for soil quality.

"Beyond that, I had to find other ways to make money until the turnip harvest was harvested."

Thinking of this, Naoki couldn't help but fall into deep thought.

Ways to make money...

He thought about what he would do when he used to open up the ranch game. One is through

fishing, and the other is to go to the back mountain and collect mushrooms and fruits there to get through the early stages of the game.

But now, he doesn't have a fishing rod yet, and the only way is to try his luck in the back mountain and see if he can find any mountain goods.

Just do it, and after lunch, Naoki prepares to head for the back mountain.

Knowing his intentions, the motorcycle lizard, which had been walking upright, suddenly leaned down, turned to the ground on all fours, turned around and shouted at him: "Gaw!

Naoki was slightly startled, saw the motorcycle lizard that changed into riding mode, and asked, "Are you letting me ride it?" The

motorbike lizard nodded his head: "Gaw!

Curious, Naoki rode up.

Once he was seated, the lizard began to run.

Its speed is not fast or slow, it is very smooth, and it runs in the direction of the back mountain with Naoki.

Feeling the air flow through the ends of his hair, Naoki thought to himself, "No wonder the motorbike lizard became a means of transportation in the Parthia region, and this feeling seems to be no different from a normal motorcycle."

After crossing a country road, a lush mountain forest appeared in front of it.

Large swathes of sunlight poured down overhead, leaving dappled light and shadows on the ground through gaps in the leaves. Green caterpillars lying in the bushes, small arrows standing on the branches, the sound of crackling

in the dense bushes, or strange fruits full of juice hanging heavily on the branches.

Everywhere there is a vibrant scene.

Naoki got down from the motorcycle lizard and raised his eyebrows to look at the petite Pokémon.

Those Pokémon also hung their heads curiously and looked at this strange human who broke into the forest.

"Green caterpillars... Level seven evolved into an ironclad chrysalis, and level ten evolved into a big butterfly, for novice trainers, this kind of Pokémon is a good choice.

"Little arrowbird? If I'm not mistaken, this seems to be the home bird of the Carlos region, and the final evolved Arrow Eagle is a Pokémon with fire attribute and flight attribute It feels like a cool Pokémon!

"Huh? Could it be that the little white mouse is a rat in the Parthia region?

Naoki's gaze suddenly saw three small figures in a patch of grass.

Two slightly larger mice cautiously poked their heads out, and behind them, protected a petite guinea pig.

"Three families..." Naoki looked around, but did not find a fourth guinea pig.

Seeing his gaze looking to this side, the three family rats struck a spirit, immediately turned around and burrowed into the grass, disappearing without a trace.

Naoki: "..."

But I have to say that a Pokémon like a rat is quite cute.

Before this, Naoki didn't feel like a plush, but seeing the cute appearance of a rat, coupled with the fine white fur on their bodies, his heart was still a little moved.

"I don't know what it feels like to touch it."

There are many Pokémon in the forest, and after walking around with the motorcycle lizard, Naoki couldn't help but feel excited.

——If he were a trainer, he would definitely take out the Poké Balls and fight them, and accept them after being recognized.

Whether it's a fast-growing green caterpillar or a promising little arrow finch, it's perfect!

However, it is a pity that from the memory of the original owner, an ordinary red and white ball costs two hundred alliance coins, and he can't afford it now.

Naoki sighed, then took his attention away from the Pokémon and focused instead on the mountain goods growing in this mountain forest.

He walked over to a lush fruit tree and reached out and plucked a fruit from the tree.

Looking down, the information about the fruit appeared in his mind.

[Peach fruit: A magical fruit that can cure poisoning, with a sweet taste, can be used to make jam, bofen, fruit cake, or put yogurt into fruit yogurt, its unique flavor is loved by many Pokémon. ] ]

Tree fruit?

Naoki picked up the peach fruit and put it in front of him and sniffed gently, smelling a faint peach fragrance.

He brought the tree fruit to the motorcycle lizard and asked, "Eat?" The

motorcycle lizard glanced at it, and then opened its mouth wide and ate the peach fruit into its stomach.

"Gaa

"It seems that as in the anime, tree fruit is also the main source of food for Pokémon."

Naoki had an idea in his heart, nodded silently, and picked a few more peach fruits from the tree, ready to bring them back to the pasture.

However, he took only a small part.

Because if tree fruits are Pokémon food, then other Pokémon in this forest also need these tree fruits.

If he picks all these peach fruits, there must be many Pokémon who will go hungry.

After packing the peach fruit, Naoki rushed deeper with the motorized lizard.

The mountain forest is very large, maybe it is going in the wrong direction, and along the way, except for the peach fruit that he first encountered, Naoki never encountered any other fruit trees.

The time unconsciously came to the evening, Naoki was tired of walking, so he sat under a large tree to rest, he glanced at the sky and felt that it was time to return.

And at this moment, the nose of the motorcycle lizard on the side moved.

"What's wrong?" Naoki turned his head to look.

"Gaa

It didn't take long for it to determine its position and get up and look in one direction.

Naoki followed his gaze and looked at the land where there was nothing, at first he was a little puzzled, but soon he noticed something strange.

With the root of the big tree as the center, the grass in a circular area around it all withered,

"Gaw!"

The motorbike lizard barked in that direction.

Naoki got up and walked forward with the motorbike lizard with doubts in his heart, observing the strange area.

Then he pulled away the decaying fallen leaves and yellowed grass on it, and found a dark unknown thing below.

At this moment, Naoki also smelled that smell.

It was a very special smell that could not be described in words.

His heart was still wondering what this thing was, but in the next second, its information automatically appeared in his mind.

[Black truffle: A high-quality ingredient that is a rare delicacy, it can be made into steamed eggs with black truffles or made into a creamy soup with butter, which does not have a gain in itself, but can greatly enhance the effect of the dish.] ]
