Chapter 349: Even if I, my old man, Leden, jump off the boat, I will starve to death! (7.6k, 4/6)
Xia Chen was completely numb. Even if he had to run away in one minute, how far could this broken yacht run?
Counting the start-up time, how many hundred meters does it take to run?
But for that mysterious elf, it only took a second or two.
He couldn't help but think about a serious matter. What if this unknown mysterious object, whether it was an elf or not, was really not inferior to Yin Peltar's level? What should he do now?
Xia Chen has always been accustomed to preparing for the worst.
Undoubtedly, the worst-case scenario at present is that this guy is a legendary elf who is unfriendly to humans.
If that were the case, let alone one strange tree, ten strange trees combined wouldn't be enough to defeat it.
The most important thing is that Xia Chen knows nothing about the legendary elves in the Padia region.
What are its attributes, what are its characteristics, whether it is friendly to humans or not... none of these key information are known.
When he was in a state of confusion, a burst of warm emotional energy was transmitted to Xia Chen's heart, calming his anxiety and tension.
"Sana~"
Xia Chen looked back and saw Gardevoir shaking his head and looking at him. There was no nervousness on his face at all, as if he was telling Xia Chen that there was no need to worry.
He suddenly remembered something. Around this time last year, before Yin Pertar woke up, not only Senbu reminded him, but also Gardevoir, who was still Lalulas at the time, also gave a warning.
And now, at this critical moment, Gardevoir has given a hint that seems to be "It doesn't matter." Do they know anything?
Xia Chen subconsciously looked at Xianbu beside him, and saw that she was also frowning in thought, with a vaguely guessing but confused expression.
It seems that only Gardevoir knows the origin of this elf.
Since the elves have not made a single mistake in judgment so far, Xia Chen's anxiety has been reduced a lot with Gardevoir's comfort, but he still wants to ask questions that need to be clarified.
Xia Chen turned to look at Gardevoir, "So, this is another legendary elf?"
"Sana..."
Gardevoir shook his head silently.
Xia Chen, who knew his own elves very well, knew that Gardevoir meant that he didn't know, not that he didn't know.
But this is not critical. Xia Chen continued to ask: "So, is it friendly to humans?"
Regarding this question, Gardevoir nodded in affirmation.
Xia Chen breathed a sigh of relief. It didn't matter if it was a legendary elf or not, as long as there was no danger.
During the inquiry, on the ship's radar, the mysterious elf was infinitely close to the yacht's location.
After thinking about it, Xia Chen decided to go out to greet this uninvited guest.
"Do you really trust your elf's judgment?"
When leaving the cabin, Qishu asked softly.
"Of course, more than I believe in myself."
Xia Chen replied matter-of-factly: "My achievements today are all due to their efforts."
Qishu: "..."
Reason told her that Xia Chen's words were nonsense, but the sincere emotions in his words made Qishu feel that this guy really thought so.
What a mysterious guy...
…………
The uninvited guest arrived earlier than Xia Chen imagined, and the way he appeared was more...different than he imagined.
As soon as they stepped out of the cabin, an orange-red meteor suddenly flashed across the blue sky. Before Xia Chen and the elves could react, the mysterious elf crashed into the sea not far from the yacht.
Due to the huge inertia brought by the extremely fast speed, the sea surface splashed with waves more than ten meters high, and also exploded a large group of innocent wild elves.
Xia Chen: "..."
Okay, it's almost certain that even if this guy is a legendary elf, he is definitely a more harmonious existence than the flightless and fat-headed fish.
"Gardevoir, is it okay for Meenas and I to go over and take a look?"
Out of caution, Xia Chen consulted Gardevoir before joining in the fun.
"Sana~"
Gardevoir nodded briskly, indicating that there was no problem.
"That's good, you guys wait for me on the boat."
After saying hello, Xia Chen sat on Menas and then jumped into the water with him.
Menas was very fast in the water, and soon he brought Xia Chen to the place where the mysterious elf fell into the water.
When Xia Chen got closer, he discovered that this elf that could exceed the speed of sound was actually an orange-red... motorcycle lizard?
It’s not quite accurate to say it’s a motorcycle lizard. Apart from the color, there are many differences between the mysterious elf and the motorcycle lizard.
For example, the cluster of white feathers on the top of the head and the two white ones are thick and long, and they seem to be the same pheasant feathers of the Monkey King.
In addition, there are specious differences between this elf and a motorcycle lizard in terms of body size and every detail on the body.
Ordinary motorcycle lizards are no more than two meters tall, but this "motorcycle lizard" is definitely close to three meters.
Overall, this is a strong, mighty, and outstanding... vermilion limited edition motorcycle lizard.
Whether it is a legendary elf is another matter, but it looks like a powerful elf.
Although it is not advisable to judge people by their appearance, "judging spirits by their appearance" still has a certain spiritual basis to some extent.
After many generations of researchers have concluded through observation, it has become a general rule that the elves who look weak are not necessarily weak, but the elves with a fierce appearance are all ruthless characters.
Quasi-gods such as Biting Land Shark, Banjiras, and Three Evil Dragons are typical representatives among them.
This majestic and high-end motorcycle lizard looks like a strong man.
Although, this strong man who has fallen into a state of weakness and fatigue, and whose eyes are about to close at any time... is now surrounded by a group of light cods, who seem to be eating them.
In this unknown sea area, a scene of "a dragon swimming in shallow water and being confronted by a shrimp" is about to take place.
Naturally, Xia Chen would not let this elf, who was suspected of being a mythical beast, die in front of his eyes. He patted Menas under him, and the latter immediately rushed over knowingly.
There are countless powerful elves in the sea, including gyms and even king-level ones. However, the ocean is very vast, and such elves cannot be found everywhere.
Naturally, these light cods are not that strong. The strongest among them is only at the elite level. Menas has no problem driving away these small fish and shrimps.
After a while, under the shock of Menas' strength, the light-bodied cods dispersed, and the scarlet motorcycle lizard didn't know whether it was exhausted or drowning. After closing its eyes, it was unable to sink.
Xia Chen quickly directed Menas to rescue it back on the ship.
…………
On the deck, Xia Chen, Ming Yi, Qishu and a group of elves gathered around the mysterious elf curiously, trying to find out its origin.
"Rotom, do you recognize it?"
Xia Chen's first thought was naturally to ask Rotom, who was backed by the Internet world and theoretically knew all human knowledge.
However, the results were disappointing.
"Hey...there is no information about this elf in the existing Elf Encyclopedia, Lotto!"
"Where's the Motorized Lizard? Have you seen it?"
Accompanying Principal Clavel all the way around, the Motorized Lizard, who was supposed to be well-informed, curiously looked at this elf who was suspected of being of his own kind, and shook his head.
Then, maybe she was the only one who knew the truth. Xia Chen cast his hopeful eyes on Doraemon, who looked solemn.
"Senbu, do you know it?"
"Buy..."
Xianbu neither nodded nor shook his head, but stretched out his silk satin and pulled Xia Chen aside, as if he wanted to whisper something to him.
Xia Chen opened the memo on the phone knowingly, and then handed it over. Xianbu used the satin front end to press the keys on the phone like flying.
After a while, she pushed the phone back, and there were already a few lines of text on the originally blank memo.
"The legendary elf in the Padia region, Guluton, is an ancient paradoxical species of motor lizard. He should have escaped from Area Zero. He has a changeable temperament and does not rule out a violent side."
Xia Chen's heart trembled. Is he really a legendary elf?
But what is this ancient paradox...
He did know that Area Zero was the official number of the Padia Crater, a mysterious place that few people could peek into.
Changeable temperament, cruelty...this also needs to be guarded against.
Xia Chenzai read it carefully, and after keeping it firmly in his mind, he deleted this paragraph of text.
"Thanks, Yin Bu."
Xia Chen touched Xianbu's head and returned to the legendary elf named "Guleton".
…………
When Xia Chen and Xianbu returned, Gardevoir was trying to use healing waves to treat the comatose Gulton, but it seemed to have no effect.
It is not that it is completely ineffective, but that the life energy output does not meet the healing requirements.
Undoubtedly, this is caused by the difference in strength between the two elves.
If a weak elf is injured, Gardevoir needs to control the amount when using the healing wave to prevent the energy from overflowing and causing damage to the elf's body.
The opposite is true when encountering a powerful spirit. The general idea is...the toothpick stirs up the vat.
A toothpick may be useless, but a multi-pronged approach is always better.
While letting Gardevoir and Senbu continue to heal it from the outside, Xia Chen himself also tried to pour the full compound medicine into its mouth.
After more than ten minutes of resuscitation, Luton gradually regained consciousness.
Noticing that its orange-red flippers twitched, Xia Chen quickly asked the two elves to stop treatment and led them and other elves to retreat ten meters away.
Therefore, Luton must have experienced a battle or something else to be in such a mess. He must have been very vigilant when he just woke up. Doing this can at least give him a higher sense of security.
】
Qishu's three gym-level elves stood at the front, ready to be released at any time. Everyone was nervously waiting for the mysterious elf to wake up.
Not long after, the lying Gulton finally opened his eyes. As expected, his eyes were full of vigilance, apart from the slightest confusion about the unfamiliar environment.
His eyes were as sharp as lightning as he scanned the Xia Chen crowd ten meters away. Therefore, Leden spread the feathers above his head as if he was about to take off and leave, but his body condition prevented him from even moving.
"We mean no harm."
Xia Chen did not approach rashly, but stood in the distance and shouted: "It was Meenas and I who rescued you just now, do you remember?"
Therefore, Leden's eyes moved upward, as if he was recalling something.
Before falling into coma, it seemed that he did see a Menas in the water?
The vigilance in his eyes became weaker, so Luton's tense body gradually relaxed.
I don't know if he really believed Xia Chen's words, or if he was secretly mobilizing energy to heal himself.
"Are you hungry? Do you need me to provide you with some food, energy cubes or fish?"
Xia Chen tried to further close his relationship with Guluton. The visitor was a guest, and it was better to make good friends than to make enemies, especially since this was a legendary elf.
Therefore, Luton didn't even have the strength to shake his head, but glanced aside to express disdain.
However, its growling belly honestly protested.
Xia Chen shook his head helplessly, walked into the kitchen and briefly processed the freshly collected light cod meat to make a sashimi. He also took a large box of sweet energy cubes and placed them in front of Gulton, then retreated to a safe distance.
outside.
He has done what he has to do, so it is up to him whether he eats or not.
After dealing with all this, Xia Chen dismissed the elves who were watching the excitement, "Okay, let's disperse. Don't pay too much attention to it. Just don't get too close to it."
The elves responded one after another and then dispersed.
Fortunately, the deck is large enough. Even if there are dozens of square meters of space left for Guluton in the corner, there is still room for other elves to move freely.
However, although Xia Chen had said not to pay too much attention to Guluton, it was impossible to turn a blind eye to such a big guy that he had never seen before and seemed to be a legendary elf lying there.
Xia Chen could obviously notice that every time Luton moved his eyes to the sashimi, there was a hint of desire in his eyes, but under the burning gaze, he chose to endure.
Xia Chen smiled knowingly and clapped his hands to attract the attention of the elves. "Everyone, come here. Although you are on vacation, don't miss your training. There happens to be a battle field in the yacht. Miss Qi Shu is also here. Let's go in.
Let her give me some advice after two games."
The smart elf vaguely guessed Xia Chen's intention, and the fool who was not smart enough was also dragged in by the smart ones, leaving Gulu standing on the deck, looking at their backs slightly stunned.
This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading!…………
Although training is just a pretense, as the old saying goes, it’s come and gone, and it really can’t be justified not to play two games.
Xia Chen challenged Miss Qishu. Naturally, it was not a competition on the level of a gym challenge, but a real 3v3 battle with a gym-level trainer.
Although he knew there was no hope of victory, Xia Chen still bravely stepped forward, and then... hit gg. The score was an inhumane 3:0, and Dian Haiyan single-swiped.
"How much strength did you use?"
Although he was bloodbathed, Xia Chen was not depressed. This was originally a battle of perception gaps, and he didn't even think about learning anything.
Miss Qishu was in a very good mood. The corners of her mouth curled up slightly, "Don't be too discouraged. After all, Dian Haiyan used 50% of her strength."
She said comforting words in the most irritating tone.
Xia Chen glanced at Dian Haiyan, who was leisurely arranging his feathers, and fell silent.
50% is really shocking...
Xia Chen did not doubt that Qishu was bluffing him. The strength requirements of gym leaders were much higher than those of ordinary gym-level trainers. Three-star gym levels were just the threshold.
As for me now... it may be a bit reluctant to fight against an elite three-star trainer.
But there is nothing you can do about it. The path of a trainer is different from that of a researcher. It is a linear growth path.
The accumulation of resources, the accumulation of experience, the consumption of time... this is not something that can be accomplished overnight.
After handing the injured elves to the auspicious eggs on the yacht for treatment, Xia Chen returned to the battlefield.
What was happening on the field at this time was the battle between the Capotou Frog and Xiao Duolong. There was not much difference in strength between these two guys. They both looked like senior and intermediate players.
"Xia Chen, what are you going to do with that elf?"
Mingyi was naturally talking about the recently rescued Gulton. Although she didn't know that this was a genuine legendary elf, she could clearly feel that Gulton was extraordinary.
Xia Chen was also a little troubled, "What should I do... let's worship it as a giant Buddha first, since there aren't many mouths for it on the ship anyway."
Qishu suddenly asked: "Don't you want to conquer it?"
Xia Chen smiled bitterly and said, "I don't dare to think about it..."
To say whether you have thought about it or not, you must have thought about it.
But he felt that this kind of behavior always felt like...the Cowherd stole the Weaver Girl's clothes while she was taking a bath and then forced her to marry him.
It's not that Xia Chen has a moral obsession and doesn't want to do something like this that takes advantage of the elves' danger. The main reason is that he thinks that as long as the Weaver Girl is a normal person, why not just throw a spell and turn the rogue Cowherd into a scumbag?
Xia Chen was afraid that he would be treated like this by the recovered Gu Ledun, so naturally he couldn't think of subduing him.
"Let it go after it recovers from its injuries, so that we can form a good relationship."
What Xia Chen said was actually nonsense, so Luton wanted to leave, could he still stop him?
But I don’t know if this guy is really on a hunger strike, or if he is “really delicious”?
With this in mind, Xia Chen greeted him: "You guys hold on for now, I'll go out and take a look at it."
…………
When Xia Chen came out of the cabin, Gullton on the deck was sucking the last piece of light cod fillet. His eyes looking around happened to meet Xia Chen's.
Their eyes met, Gu Ledun subconsciously swallowed the fish fillet in his mouth, and then buried his head like lightning. The two feathers on the top of his head twitched slightly, showing that Gu Ledun's heart was not at peace.
Xia Chen: "..."
The co-author is really a comedian. Where has the majesty of the elves in your legend gone?
Even so, Xia Chen still wanted to save face for this big lizard.
He walked slowly over and said to himself: "These guys wanted to eat you just now, but now they are eaten by you. It's really a cycle of karma and retribution!"
Therefore, Luton's buried head suddenly lifted up, yes, that's it!
I ate it not because I was hungry, but because I wanted revenge!
I am the end of all things, the destroyer of worlds!
I am the extremely evil dragon!
"Would you like to get you some more fish fillets for revenge?"
"Gule... (Okay...)"
Seeing Guledun nodding cutely, Xia Chen tried his best to suppress his smile and went back to the cabin to prepare some light cod fillets for him.
But in this case, he, Mingyi and the others would have nothing to eat.
Forget it, let's just try harder and make ourselves lighter...
Zoroark and Menas were called, and the two elves went into the sea again to "collect" fish fillets.
On this day, a legend about a visible but intangible giant-tongued clam spread among the light cod people in this sea area...
Therefore, Luton's arrival did not bring much change to Xia Chen and the elves' voyage. After getting used to the presence of such a big guy on the deck, no one paid too much attention to it.
Of course, except for Xia Chen and Xian Bu who know its details.
Senbu would always run to Guluton without saying a word and use his life energy to heal it. It was almost like watering a flower when he had nothing to do.
Therefore, after Luton experienced the initial resistance, he found that resistance was inconvenient and he began to enjoy it.
I don’t know why a fighting dragon four times weaker than a fairy can accept healing from pure fairy energy...
Under the dual influence of Xia Chen and Xian Bu, Gu Ledun's eyes gradually softened.
However, there is still a hint of worry hidden in its eyes.
…………
Night came very early in Padea, and after dinner, the setting sun and sunset completely disappeared above the sea level.
There is no moon tonight, so we cannot see the beauty of the bright moon on the sea, but the stars are always twinkling on moonless nights, and the little stars are reflected on the deep blue sea.
If it weren't for the ripples that appeared from time to time, it would be hard to tell which was the sky and which was the water.
"Drunken dreams don't know that the sky is in the water, and a boat full of clear dreams overwhelms the stars~"
Xia Chen, who was lying on the deck basking in the moon while enjoying the sea breeze, recited half a poem at the right moment.
He turned his head and raised his eyebrows at the strange tree not far away quite complacently and asked: "How is it? Is it okay?"
Qishu frowned, "Are you drunk?"
Xia Chen muttered to himself in confusion: "Didn't you say that the heroine threw herself into her arms as soon as she read this poem... It's really a lie."
This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading the exciting content! Qishu chuckled and sarcastically said, "It seems that he is not drunk, but has something wrong with his brain."
Mingyi was not present, and Qishu never concealed his true self.
Maybe it was because he had been depressed for a long time, but Xia Chen found that these sisters especially liked to quarrel with him.
And Xia Chen, the king of strong talkers, did not deserve his fame. He retorted angrily: "My, my, my, I forgot that you are an illiterate idol. It is normal for you not to understand poetry."
Qishu did not refute, but said calmly: "You are right, but not everyone has a wealthy childhood like you."
Xia Chen was speechless for a moment, and even felt a hint of guilt in his heart.
What I just said seems to be a bit excessive...
Who would have thought that before the guilt in his heart was gone, Qishu's lips curled up again, wanting to be beaten.
"Hey, you feel so guilty. Do you trust others so easily? Be careful of being deceived when you go out~"
Xia Chen was furious. Sure enough, how could this evil and scheming woman be so easily defeated by just one sentence?
"You win..."
Xia Chen depressedly surrendered in this smokeless war of words.
Qishu pursued him relentlessly, "What does it mean to admit your failure frankly? To you..."
Xia Chen suddenly waved towards the distance, "Mingyi, we are here!"
This voice directly silenced Qishu, who was declaring victory, and immediately shut up and pretended to be the gentle girl who had spent her quiet years.
For some unknown reason, she didn't want Ming Yi to see that side of her.
Therefore, this also gave Xia Chen a chance to turn defeat into victory...
The expected footsteps did not come, Qishu glanced at Xia Chen coldly.
The latter smiled back, "Are you so easy to trust others?"
The strange tree is speechless.
Idle in the corner, Boredom watched the whole story and yawned.
Humans are such boring creatures.
However, it's not all shortcomings...
This afternoon was the weakest but also the most peaceful one since it came to this era.
But the more this happened, the less Guluton wanted to involve the human being who had saved him, because that guy... was really too dangerous.
It silently feels the condition of its body and knows in its heart that one day, it will definitely be able to return to the level where it can move freely.
When the time comes, you can leave here and continue your own path of exile.
I just hope that guy doesn't catch up so quickly...
So Luton looked up at the stars and thought this way.
——————
"The eye-catching grid captures your eyes, who is telling the story? It's me, Qishu!"
"Good morning, lunch and night, hello ciao~"
“Welcome to Qishu’s new channel, Qishu Outdoor!”
"Working from 9 to 5 and sitting in the office for a long time, have you not taken a hike with the elves for a long time? Let the strange trees light up your enthusiasm. This spring, let's get active together!"
The energetic and cute girl's voice sounded, and the fans who had been waiting in the live broadcast room were instantly excited.
Almost at the end of every sentence, there will be a large number of fans interacting with paid messages or gifts.
Obviously, they have been looking forward to this program that has been previewed in the news for several days.
"This is the first program. Can the little magnets guess where the strange tree is?"
[Little Magneto] is the unified name for Qishu’s fans, just like Xia Chen’s fans are called [Doudou Ge].
After saying this, the picture on the live broadcast screen finally showed that Qishu, whose smile was brighter than the morning sun, appeared on the picture.
Naturally, the barrage was filled with howls of ghosts and wolves.
She still wears the well-designed, baggy, but looming clothes in some aspects, which is very attractive to nerds.
And with the background of strange trees, blue sea, blue sky, faint whistle, and clearly audible splash, even a fool can guess that this is at sea.
He put his delicate and cute face close to the screen and pretended to watch the barrage, and then stepped back before the nerds licked the screen. Qishu exaggeratedly clapped his hands covered by his sleeves and praised: "Wow, the little Magnemites guessed it right.
I’m on a yacht now~”
"Today, Qishu and his friends came to the sea to play. Can everyone guess who this person is?"
The barrage immediately started a name-guessing game.
[poppi!]
[Gurusha!]
[Ye Ci?]
[It can’t be Aoki, right?]
"Haha, you guys have too much imagination. That guy Aoki must be working overtime. How come he is broadcasting with me?"
"As for who the mysterious guest is, please follow Qishu's footsteps to find out!"
…………
The mobile phone Rotom always followed from the best angle, Qishu walked from the side of the ship to the deck. Suddenly, many elves that were not common in the Padia area and were not familiar to most viewers appeared in the lens.
The exquisite and lovely fairy Yin Bu, the beautiful and elegant Gardevoir of different colors, the tall and cool Zoroark, and the beautiful Menas jumping out of the sea from time to time as the yacht moves slowly forward.
Some viewers have already recognized these unique elves, and the trainers of these elves are undoubtedly...
"I am super, Master Pigeon!"
At the same time, Menas, who had just flashed past the camera, jumped up from the sparkling sea again, and this time, there was a person sitting on him, it was Xia Chen.
Xia Chen jumped directly from Menas to the deck with one swift step. He propped himself on the ground with one hand. Gaia would have given it ten points when he landed.
"That's right, the guest in our first episode is my senior from Station P, who everyone is very familiar with [I'm Not a Cuckoo Pigeon], Xia Chen!"
Xia Chen, who has been operating at p station for two years and has more than 10 million fans, can indeed be regarded as the senior of Qishu, who has only been a host for less than half a year.
"Good morning, little Magnemites. It's a great honor to be a guest in Mr. Qishu's live broadcast room~"
Master Qishu and Miss Qishu are both nicknames given to Qishu by fans, but the former is just more licking.
Xia Chen, a person who understands the effect of the program, naturally chose this title that can arouse more enthusiasm.
Sure enough, as soon as Xia Chen finished saying hello, the Doudou Pigeons among the little magnets also became active.
"Master Ge, please be more reserved, don't embarrass us Doudou Ge!"
"What are you talking about? If Master Ge is not called Master Qishu, he will be unworthy of the title of [the most affectionate person in Donghuang]. That would be a disgrace to us Doudou Ge!"
"Don't think that Sirona can't find you in other people's live broadcast rooms. I will immediately open portals in various fan groups to expose you!"
"Just wait, the land shark will bite you hard and fly over to shark you!"
"I feel relieved when I see Xia Chen licking Lord Qishu just like me. Lord Qishu is indeed the only light in this complicated and chaotic world!"
In the live broadcast with Xia Chen appearing, the entire barrage style became strange, but this did increase the level of activity.
Qishu picked up the topic at the right time.
"Okay, today our activity is... the famous sea fishing!"
"But before the event starts, I have a friend I want to introduce to you~"
Xia Chen has already appeared, and there is no need to guess the last person. Naturally, it is Ming Yi who has been coming to Niangguang Gym to challenge a few days ago.
After leading out the last person in the activity, the three of them officially started the main purpose of this voyage, sea fishing.
At the same time, after being informed by Xia Chen that there was going to be a live broadcast, the uneasiness in the heart of the lonely old dragon who hid in his room to rest because he didn't want to show up became more and more intense.
