Chapter 271 First Outdoor Adventure! Piercing a Rope? The Lazybones' Day Off? The Story of a Lazy Man Eating Pancakes!
Ye Yinchuan walked towards the entrance of the "Painting Water Forest" in the wilderness area.
Here you can see some signs indicating potential dangers in the jungle, along with some advice.
such as--
Beware of Grass-type Pokémon's spores and Bug-type and Snake-type Pokémon's venomous fangs; prepare antidotes and antiparalysis agents in advance.
Please be aware of your surroundings. Areas with dense foliage are dark, so be careful not to get lost. Make sure to mark your way back in advance!
[If you encounter a danger sign, do not proceed. It may be an undeveloped section of road or contain uncontrollable hazards!]
Looking at these prompts, Ye Yinchuan felt the atmosphere of adventure rise up all at once.
It even reminded him of the strange tales of rules.
However, some of the tips are quite heartwarming.
Watch your step! Do not harm Pokémon that nest or roam in the grass!
If you encounter a trainer in need of help, please lend a hand and help each other!
Ye Yinchuan arrived at the entrance.
Although it's called a low-level jungle area, it's a genuine jungle area, meaning only professional trainers and some amateur trainers who have passed specific tests can enter.
There are guards at its entrance.
There's just a small hut here, like a security guard's room.
Ye Yinchuan stepped forward and saw an old man inside watching a video of a female streamer and Pokémon engaging in suggestive content.
"Cough cough..."
Hearing the noise, the old man glanced at Ye Yinchuan, then calmly put away his phone.
"Going to the jungle? Let's check your qualifications."
Ye Yinchuan's gaze swept over and saw that there was a barrier at the entrance, with two Pokémon holding the handles.
A dog that had asked for leave lay there like a small mountain, looking at Ye Yinchuan with a nonchalant and indifferent gaze, scratching its belly with one hand, looking very relaxed.
One of them was Blastoise, which sat there like a silent heavy weapon, motionless, with its eyes squinted as if it were resting, exuding a very calm and composed aura.
It's clear that these two Pokémon are quite old; you can see signs of aging on their bodies, even spots.
Ye Yinchuan glanced at it and saw that the King of Leave was around level 55, while the Blastoise was over level 60.
He couldn't help but wonder, are these two the old man's Pokémon?
That old man must have been very capable when he was young!
In the Pokémon world, older Pokémon will experience a drop in level due to the decline in their abilities in various aspects...
Therefore, it is unrealistic to think that you can simply wait it out.
Unless it is an extremely long-lived species or a special individual, the degree of aging may not be obvious, and the longer the time, the higher the grade.
For example, Blastoise, as a turtle-type Pokémon, has a longer lifespan than Slaking, and its flowering period is also correspondingly longer...
Although the official Pokédex mentions that Wartortle supposedly has a lifespan of 10,000 years, Ye Yinchuan believes that is an exaggeration. If it really had such a long lifespan, it would have evolved into Blastoise long ago, even if it lay still for a hundred years, unless there are special circumstances that prevent it from evolving.
But without a doubt, both Wartortle and Blastoise are long-lived Pokémon, belonging to the type where the turtle remains even after the owner leaves, and the lineage continues for three generations.
However, there is also the possibility that after evolving, Wartortle will be stronger, consume more energy, and age faster. Perhaps it cannot evolve, or perhaps it deliberately does not evolve, and its lifespan will be longer than Blastoise's?
Thinking about the traits I've encountered, it's true that you can't have everything. Most traits have a delicate balance: if you excel in one aspect, you might sacrifice another!
Ye Yinchuan glanced at the two Pokémon and took out his professional license.
The old man took the license, examined it for a moment, and then placed it on the card reader.
In this way, Ye Yinchuan's professional trainer information will be registered online and displayed on his computer.
"Hmm, young man, you've only been out of school for a few days and you're already in the wilderness? Be careful. Here's an escape rope for you; you'll need it in a lot of situations."
As he spoke, the old man picked up a bag of escape ropes from the side and handed it to Ye Yinchuan.
"Thank you, thank you."
Ye Yinchuan thanked him repeatedly and, without much ceremony, put the escape rope into his backpack.
The so-called escape rope is a sturdy long rope, also called an escape rope.
Actually, this kind of tool is most useful when exploring caves...
In the game, the Cave Rope allows you to instantly appear at the entrance of the cave.
In reality, such an unscientific function obviously does not exist.
Its function and principle are quite simple. For example, you tie a rope to a place and then tie it to your body. This way, even if you go deep into a cave and lose your way, you can follow the rope back the way you came.
The so-called "escape" means escaping danger, or escaping from the cave.
Of course, escape ropes are not limited to caves. They can also be used in complex forest areas or rocky terrain to ensure that you can turn back.
Additionally, for situations where you want to get down from a high place or climb up from a low place, you can use an escape rope and some extra devices, such as installing a hook to make it a grappling hook. You can hook onto something that can be secured and then use the rope to climb up or descend...
Ye Yinchuan hadn't prepared an escape rope this time, because he was just testing the waters, and there weren't any caves around... Unexpectedly, the keeper of the wilderness area gave him one, which was an unexpected bonus.
Jungle Guard: You call me an old man if you don't give me loot?
"Young man, I understand doing live streaming, but not paying attention to your surroundings in the wild is not a good habit... This place is relatively safe, but that may not be the case in the future. You can release your Pokémon and let them keep watch for you."
Ye Yinchuan agreed with the jungle wardens' suggestion, and in fact, he planned to do so as well.
Thanks!
Ye Yinchuan took out a Poké Ball and sent out Snorlax, Torchic, Owl, and Akagi in succession.
Only Milotic didn't call out.
Milotic has the ability to move on land, but it's not a comfortable environment for it. It's better to release it for fresh air when it needs to fight or when there is water.
Although Cocodora still looks like a baby, she hasn't fallen behind in her training during this period, and her actual combat power has improved a lot.
Even in such a jungle area, it's usually enough to let Coco Dora fight.
Ironclad Pokémon: Cocoyar
[Level: 24]
[New Move: Rock Slide]
"Oh?"
Seeing the Pokémon summoned by Ye Yinchuan, especially Snorlax and Shiny Owl, the jungle wardens couldn't help but show an expression of appreciation and curiosity.
"Not bad, not bad at all. The younger generation is truly formidable."
The jungle wardens sighed and then took out their phones again to watch videos that grazed the edges of the map.
This old man is interesting. I guess when I get old, I'll be just like him.
"Come on, with Blastoise and Slaking, I was quite the big shot in my youth! Becoming a gym leader in a remote area wouldn't be a problem!"
How did you end up guarding the gates in the jungle?
[Ha! I think you don't understand. Do you think just anyone is qualified to be a gatekeeper in the jungle? Do you know how easy and well-paid this low-level jungle is?]
The chat also had a discussion about this jungle keeper.
Ye Yinchuan saw all of this, but he didn't participate in the discussion.
Because he is now absorbing the essence of nature, surrounded by lush green grass, birdsong, and fragrant flowers. Although the sun in the sky is a bit dazzling, it warms him comfortably.
My Pokémon, though they are well taken care of at home, seem to come alive even more in the wild. They enjoy the fresh air and are full of energy. Most importantly, the energy concentration of Pokémon in the wild is higher, which makes both people and Pokémon feel comfortable and nourished.
"Generally, the higher the level of the jungle, the more concentrated the spirit energy. The total amount of spirit energy in a region often determines the overall strength and upper limit of the jungle..."
Only professional trainers are qualified to enter these wild areas, allowing Pokémon to battle freely, immerse themselves in the high concentration of Pokémon energy, and access various resources nurtured by this energy...
All of these factors combined create a cycle, forming the Matthew effect: the strong only get stronger!
Ye Yinchuan enjoyed the treatment that only professional trainers could receive, and this logic naturally came to mind.
Becoming a professional trainer is definitely a high-risk, high-reward endeavor...
As the saying goes, the bigger the waves, the more expensive the fish!
[Hey streamer, how's it like in the jungle? These kinds of jungle areas are really difficult to access; most of us ordinary people hardly ever get a chance to go there!]
This is such a wonderful way to live; they're really enjoying life.
In response to the curiosity expressed in the comments, Ye Yinchuan replied:
"It felt amazing, completely different from being in the city. No wonder they all say that wilderness adventures are addictive!"
As he spoke, Ye Yinchuan also reminded the Pokémon to be vigilant and protect their surroundings, so as not to step on any Pokémon or be attacked without realizing it.
Soon, Ye Yinchuan noticed that the grass under his feet became more and more lush as he went forward, which meant that he was getting closer to the real wilderness, a relatively untouched and pristine natural environment.
Along the way, you can see a path worn by people.
As the saying goes, there was originally no road in the world, but as more people walk on it, a road is naturally formed.
At this moment, what appeared in Ye Yinchuan's mind was the opening animation of a certain version, in which the protagonist rode a bicycle across a wilderness full of tall grass, surrounded by Pokémon...
Grass is an extremely common and nostalgic element in Pokémon games.
As a transmigrator, Ye Yinchuan's feelings were quite subtle. His exploration of this Pokémon world truly began from this moment.
Ye Yinchuan had made preparations, so he wore durable trousers to avoid being cut by grass and branches, and the same principle applied when encountering Pokémon.
If a Pokémon like Zigzagoon brushes past you and you're not wearing pants, you might get a layer of flesh scraped off.
Even a unicorn can sting you with its venomous stinger, but wearing appropriate pants can greatly reduce this risk.
[Host, isn't Slaking an evolved form of Apexiscus? Can you talk about this Pokémon?]
While it's true that outdoor adventures require creating content, as a streamer, it's impossible to be disconnected from the audience.
Ye Yinchuan was also quite interested in the "Leave of Absence King":
"Did you guys notice just now? The grass around the King of Leave is all bare, like his hair is thinning."
It seems like that's true.
[Could it be that its weight damaged the grass?]
[That Slaking is almost as big as the streamer's Snorlax!]
After glancing at the comments, Ye Yinchuan didn't keep them in suspense:
"Actually, Slaking ate all that grass himself. He's incredibly lazy and doesn't want to move at all, so he only eats what's within his reach. He'll only move when there's absolutely nothing left to eat. But since that one was being cared for, the grass was like a snack to him, which is why he didn't finish it all."
[6. I think I've heard a story about a lazy man. There was a family whose son was incredibly lazy, but his family was going on a long trip, so they made a big pancake and hung it around his neck. That way, he could lie in bed and eat the pancake without doing anything… When they returned, he had still starved to death, but there was still more than half a pancake left. Guess what happened?]
[Hey upstairs, you write web novels, right? You're having trouble with the text when you post a comment?]
What exactly happened? Did his family poison the biscuits because they thought he was too lazy?
【Wait, does this have anything to do with lazy otters?】
Looking at the comments, Ye Yinchuan smiled and quickly answered:
"It's simple. He finished the bread in front of him and was too lazy to turn the bread around, so he starved to death."
[Ugh... Damn streamer, I was already halfway through typing! Folks, that's exactly what he said!]
This story is way too exaggerated! Is this person the reincarnation of Slacker King?
Perhaps, after such a person dies, they will be reincarnated as a lazy otter?
"The Slave Kings won't starve themselves to death. Sometimes you can see them moving around, which means they're looking for food."
Slaking is too lazy, he's even too lazy to battle! Convincing Slaking to battle is a huge challenge for any trainer!
"That's right. Slaking's ability is 'Sloth,' which affects their personality. This laziness has become their instinct; they basically stay still as much as possible, even during battle, they might slack off... while others attack twice, they might only attack once!"
Isn't that useless?
This thing is torture, whether you're a lazy otter or an hyperactive ape!
[When I see that guy acting so nonchalant, I get inexplicably angry!]
"Hmm... Theoretically, Slaking is a very difficult Pokémon to control. But don't overlook the fact that its base stats are almost the most overpowered of all Pokémon, aside from legendary Pokémon... 670 points, an S-rank among S-rank Pokémon!"
Even if Ye Yinchuan didn't pay special attention to the "Leave King," it would be hard for him not to know about its existence, because it was just too special.
With a base stat total of 670, it's even more powerful than pseudo-legendary characters, and it can evolve at level 36, which is incredibly overpowered.
However, in the game, precisely because of its lazy nature, it can only attack once every two turns, so this base stat can actually be considered a nerf...
In reality, Slaking's high base stats give him great strength and defense. Although he usually stays still, when he gets serious, he is incredibly fast and fierce, capable of killing in one strike and turning the tide of battle!
A truly skilled trainer will respect and make good use of Slaking's characteristics to devise appropriate tactics for it.
Ye Yinchuan also explained this, concluding by saying:
"This Pokémon actually possesses great wisdom. Having gone through the laziness of Slakoth and the restlessness of Apexis, Slaking at this stage is actually stable. It is precisely because of its minimal movement that it can accumulate tremendous power within its body, which can be unleashed at the necessary moment to deliver a decisive blow!"
Ye Yinchuan actually knew a small detail about the "Leave King".
There's a theory that the three evolutionary forms of the lazy otter family are actually based on a riddle: babies walk on four legs, adults on two legs, and the elderly on three legs...
Although King of Leave isn't three-legged.
However, you can see that its gray hair, the fur around its neck, and its overall appearance all give it an aged look.
After answering some of the questions raised by the viewers about the "King of Taking Leave," Ye Yinchuan focused on the present moment.
He soon discovered quite a few Pokémon.
Such as green caterpillars, unicorns, owl grass, trumpet buds...
These baby Pokémon are basically no threat, especially since Ye Yinchuan has Pokémon protecting him. Once they sense this, they quickly leave and take a detour.
However, these Pokémon were all too common, with no mutations or special individuals like shiny Pokémon. Ye Yinchuan would just glance at them with the camera and not give much explanation.
After all, exploring on your own is different from connecting with others.
When you connect with others, you can basically "bring together the strengths of many," which means combining everyone's adventures and encounters with special Pokémon.
Exploring on your own, however, might result in a morning filled with rather mundane experiences, and you might not even encounter any rare Pokémon...
To put it bluntly, it's all about looks.
Before long, Ye Yinchuan began to venture deeper into the forest, where the number of Pokémon gradually increased.
After all, the forest environment is more secluded, and there are more resources and food.
"It's quite damp here..."
Ye Yinchuan quickly experienced the downsides of being outdoors. For example, here, there were Bug-type Pokémon everywhere, and their woven nets were sticking to his face, which was very uncomfortable.
For example, the damp mud underfoot is nowhere near as refreshing as it is at home.
"Family members, look what I found!"
Just when Ye Yinchuan was worried that the show might be a bit bland, he discovered a large group of Pokémon that had never appeared in the live stream before.
These Pokémon look like mushroom spirits, with beige upper bodies and green lower bodies, green round spots on their bodies, skirt-like structures, and a small opening on their heads.
Looking at his facial features, what's interesting is the prominent brow bone structure, giving the impression of straight eyebrows!
At this moment, they all gathered under the tree, motionless!
