Chapter 390: Where is the decoration team? Please help!
Xia Chen accepted the volcano stone with peace of mind. Out of politeness, Xia Chen did not study it now, but put it away first, and then looked at Adek.
He already understood that the two elders called him here to fulfill their bet promise.
Daye threw the volcano rock to himself, and naturally Adek was next.
But... isn't Adek's bet still in Vulcan Moth's belly?
He was a little curious for a moment.
Under Xia Chen's attention, Adek threw an elf ball.
In an instant, a dazzling light like the sun appeared, and at the same time, the temperature in the box rose sharply.
"Ah Huo, this is not a battlefield."
Adek wrote a word lightly, and the box returned to normal.
Xia Chen then opened his eyes that he had just subconsciously closed. In front of him was a Vulcan moth.
His eyes are firm and sharp, his body is plump but tight, his aura is calm but powerful, and his six red wings are dotted with black spots like sun flares.
This is a Vulcan moth whose powerful strength can be seen just from its appearance.
Xia Chen asked in confusion: "This is..."
Adek raised his chin, "You already want someone else's child. Of course she wants to see you."
This reason was very legitimate, and Xia Chen nodded to express his understanding.
He even took the initiative and said: "Do you need a fight to test my strength or something?"
It seems like this is what is written in those stories.
Adek: "..."
Xia Chen looked at Adek's speechless expression and immediately reacted.
He hurriedly waved his hand and explained: "Don't worry, I won't send Gullerton."
"..."
Adek let out a breath and looked at Xia Chen with empty eyes, "Has anyone ever told you that sometimes you really... deserve a beating?"
The latter scratched his head, laughed innocently, and did not answer.
…………
Adek shook his head and said helplessly: "Okay, I didn't mean that. Ah Huo also watched that game and is very confident that you can take good care of her child. I just want to see you."
"Fu~"
The giant moth patted its red wings, which were as dazzling as the sun, and agreed with Adek's words.
Only then did Xia Chen realize that the Vulcan Moth's abdomen was slightly bulging, showing her pregnancy.
Adek continued: "The gestation period of the Vulcan moth is about five months. It's already two months now, and it will take about another two months to hatch the eggs. Do you want elf eggs, or wait for the burning bugs to hatch?
Are you coming here to choose again?"
Generally speaking, the pregnancy period of elves is very short, and many trainers even suddenly find a few more elven eggs in the basket after a picnic.
However, for powerful elves, they need their children to absorb enough nutrients and energy from their bodies in order for them to win at the starting line, so the pregnancy period will be much longer.
Therefore, even the elves of nature can roll...
Then again, five months is a very long pregnancy period, which shows how powerful Adek's Vulcan Moth is.
Xia Chen thought about the time. Three months later...it will be October.
By that time, I should be able to almost find the remaining two-flavored secret plants, and I would be free to be a full-time dad at home for a while.
So he replied: "I will hatch it myself, just to cultivate feelings."
Adek shrugged nonchalantly, "It's up to you. I'll let you know when the elf egg comes out."
After the agreement was made, Xia Chen exchanged contact information with Adek and Daye, and then fled from this place with an overwhelming atmosphere.
The reason why I say "escape" is not only because the performance of the elves on the stage has become more and more over-the-top, but also because they have also changed from Flame Queen Lizard to Gardevoir.
Xia Chen felt that if he stayed any longer, he would no longer be able to look directly at his Gardevoir...
…………
Although the World Youth Championship has come to an end, its subsequent impact on the world has just begun to ferment.
Because of the time difference, many people chose the latter between staying up late to watch the game and maintaining a healthy schedule, so the video of this game was widely disseminated a full day later.
In 24 hours, the official account of the World Youth Championship had a total of 500 million plays on the p station!
You know, there are less than 3 billion people in this world.
Of course, 500 million views does not represent the number of viewers. It is possible that many people have watched it repeatedly, and it is possible that some of the views belong to elves.
Internet addicted elves are not uncommon in this world...
But no matter what, this game is undoubtedly the most important game this year, or even in the past ten years.
In the minds of most people, its significance is even greater than the match between Sirona and Adek.
The championship showdown is still visible. How many times have we heard of the legendary battle?
This game revealed the tip of the iceberg behind the mysterious veil of legendary elves for the world.
The aura of the realm that was unheard of when they appeared, the two elves' exclusive moves that had never been seen before, and the last shocking blow with extraordinary power that could shake mountains and rivers.
Every detail in the game was slow-played and even analyzed and watched frame by frame.
The analysis video about this game alone occupied other positions in the top ten of the [Battle Zone] popular list.
One comment under this video summed it up very accurately.
"Whether you are a rookie who is just starting out or a successful elite master, before this competition, you are all equal, because you must observe it with the heart of an apprentice."
However, most people just looked at it, but for a very small number of people, it aroused their desire to covet the legendary elves.
In some unknown places where the sun does not shine, a violent storm that will come at an unknown time is quietly brewing...
——————
"On July 13, this newspaper reported that the World Youth Championship held in Leiwen City, Hezhong Region the day before yesterday came to a successful conclusion. Xia Chen, a young trainer from Zhijiang City, Donghuang Region, who is only 18 years old, won 3:
We defeated Dakdo with a score of 0 to win the cup. Although the score was crushing, the game process was extremely exciting..."
snap——
A thin and long tail slapped on the play button of the old-fashioned radio, and the slightly hoarse electronic sound of the announcement came to an abrupt end.
Uncle Tai, who was lying on the bamboo rocking chair and listening to the news leisurely, turned over and asked, "Elegant Cat, why did you turn off the radio?"
"Meow~"
Elegant Cat used the object at the end of its tail that looked like a small palm to pick out its ears, indicating that the news was making her sick!
We have been together for decades, and although he does not understand Elvish, Uncle Tai can still understand what she wants to express through his understanding of Elegant Cat.
He shook his head in amusement and said: "It's not easy for our Zhijiang to have such a character. We can't just report on this kind of thing!"
"Meow..."
Elegant Cat muttered two words of unknown meaning, and finally tapped the play button of the radio with its tail.
The news broadcast continues.
"...This is the first time that our Donghuang region has won the championship on the world stage after thirty years. Will this be a turning point for us to return to the competition against strong regions? We don't know, but what is certain is that if we want to
To achieve this goal, more young talents like Xia Chen are needed to actively emerge..."
In the groggy afternoon, cicadas chirped noisily, and the elegant cat lay on the futon beside the lounge chair, casually blowing out a ball of icy cold air to cool down.
Life is as usual.
"Hey, Uncle Tai, why are you still basking in the sun on such a hot day?"
A clear teenage voice suddenly broke in.
With a look of surprise, Uncle Tai slowly opened his eyes. He was very familiar with this voice after hearing it for more than ten years. Isn't it the Xia Chen who was being broadcast on the news?
"You kid...when did you come back?"
He held the recliner and wanted to stand up to greet her, but his body that had been lying down for a long time made this movement seem a bit strenuous.
Xia Chen and Yaya Mao hurriedly stepped forward to support him. Although he was not yet 70 or 80 years old, Uncle Tai's old arms and legs really couldn't bear a fall.
Uncle Tai was not dissatisfied with his elders and happily enjoyed Xia Chen and Elegant Cat's respectful behavior.
People, don’t you just miss that when you get old?
His wife passed away early, and he had no children in his life. Except for the elegant cat that always accompanied him, the people closest to him watched Xia Chen grow up since childhood.
…………
Xia Chen smiled and replied: "I just came back, why don't I come to see you right away?"
"It's better to come back...it's better to be at home..."
Uncle Tai muttered a few words, then looked behind Xia Chen, but there was no one there.
"Isn't anyone coming back with you?"
His tone seemed a little disappointed.
Xia Chen coughed lightly and replied: "Well... Mingyi probably won't be back during the summer vacation. She is busy with the gym challenge and has already obtained five gym badges."
Uncle Tai asked: "What about the other one?"
Xia Chen said hesitantly: "She... is also quite busy."
Probably stimulated by the battle between Guluton and Daklaiyin, Sirona, who was originally invincible, became motivated to continue climbing up, and went to practice somewhere unknown.
Cattleya originally wanted to visit the Donghuang area with Xia Chen and give some advice on building a gym.
But before leaving, a vicious incident suddenly occurred in Hezhong, which was suspected to be related to Team Plasma.
Cattleya, who had just become the champion, was worried that the new official's three fires would have nowhere to burn, so she immediately decided to turn the gun and go to suppress it.
So Xia Chen returned to Zhijiang alone.
As for how long to stay in Donghuang, it depends on when Paipa will inform him.
Anyway, now Guluton has regained his legendary strength, and it only takes a few hours to travel between Donghuang and Padia.
It's just that the riding experience may be worse than that of an airplane.
And Xia Chen came back this time not just to rest, he also wanted to investigate the matter of opening a gym.
After all, it is a direct department of the alliance that will be passed down for many years. Opening a gym is not a simple matter.
Application for opening, qualification review, gym location selection, groundbreaking...
Every process requires approval from the alliance and local government. The application process is starting now. The gym will be completed and opened in the next year. There are still many things that Xia Chen needs to know and learn.
"You just got off the plane and haven't you eaten yet? Can I cook you some food?"
Uncle Tai's words interrupted Xia Chen's thoughts, and he smiled politely and nodded.
"Well, it would be better if the portion of the food is larger. The guy I recently conquered in Padya is better at eating it."
…………
After eating his long-overdue lunch, Xia Chen returned to his home after being away for more than half a year.
When I came back from two long-distance trips before, the courtyard was a deserted scene overgrown with weeds. This time I was away from home for a longer time, but the courtyard looked orderly and full of life.
Undoubtedly, this was the work of a family of rats living in Xia Chen's house.
They didn't know Xia Chen's temporary return, but the house was still so orderly, which shows that the mice are really dedicated to their work.
Deeply moved, Xia Chen immediately took out the gifts he had prepared to commend them, but the Rats gave Xia Chen a surprise first -
One family of rats evolves... no, it becomes two families of rats.
To be precise, it's a family of rats and a pair of rats.
Xia Chen was surprised when he saw a pair of rats standing in the grass and looking timidly at him.
"The cub you gave birth to?"
"Zhizhi~ (yes, the baby will be born after spring this year)"
The mice nodded in affirmation.
Xia Chen knelt down and looked curiously at the pair of rats, which seemed to be much smaller, thinking about their relationship.
Brother and sister? Sister and sister?
This seems to be the case from a bloodline perspective.
But if we evolve into a family of rats in the future, we won’t be able to have one baby?
This relationship...is horrifying to think about.
However, this was their ethnic tradition, and Xia Chen chose to respect it.
After giving them some local specialties bought in Padea and Heshus, he and the elves returned to the house.
The clean and tidy floors and furniture fully demonstrate the excellent performance of the family's exclusive trick "general cleaning" in housework.
Xia Chen lay down on the sofa, which was uncomfortable but comforting. He looked at the familiar ceiling and gradually let his thoughts go.
Although it was very pretentious to say it, he felt the peace of mind that he had not seen for a long time at this moment.
However, the tranquility did not last long, and was broken by a crisp and loud sound, like a glass product in close contact with the floor.
…………
Xia Chen opened his eyes and saw that the chandelier that had been hanging in the living room for more than 20 years suddenly changed into a movable light and disappeared.
Looking down again, oh, glorious retirement...
Well, judging from its miserable and torn apart condition, it definitely cannot be called the end of its life.
Next to the shards of glass on the ground was Gu Lerton, who looked a little embarrassed and aggrieved.
It explained nonchalantly: "Who knew your chandelier was so low..."
Therefore, the two pheasant feathers on Luton's head were hanging weakly, looking a little self-reproached.
Xia Chen comforted: "It's okay, I've been unhappy with it for a long time. It keeps breaking and the brightness is still low. It's time to replace it."
It’s about hiring a decoration team. Although Xia Chen hasn’t had much dealings with the decoration team, he has a friend who is quite familiar with it. I heard he is a lifelong member.
Speaking of which, the house at home is a bit old, because when it was built, it was not considered that a large elf like Guluton, who is more than three meters tall, would come in and out, so the floor height is relatively short and the space is relatively small.
Senbushanaido and Zoroark were fine, but large elves such as Baluto, the dragon who joined the team later, Nianmeilong, and even Guluton would have a hard time staying there.
boom--
Just as he was thinking about moving, a loud noise disrupted Xia Chen's thoughts again.
He turned to look at the source of the sound, and this time it was the aquarium that had grown up with the ugly fish that suffered.
Although it could no longer hold the evolved Menas, Xia Chen never moved it out of memory and placed it in its original place.
After surviving for nearly two years, it was still destroyed at the hands of Sai Fuhao and Doron Mecia.
Sai Fuhao obediently admitted his mistake, "Hey... (Doron Mecia wants to play a game of launching missiles...)"
The crimson-headed Doron Mecia emerged from the glass debris, indicating that Sai Fuhao's words were true.
Xia Chen helplessly raised his head and said, "Forget it, you should pack these things first."
The three elves had just arrived at home not long ago and were not familiar with the environment, so it was understandable that something like this happened.
However... it seems that the matter of moving has to be considered and put on the agenda.
