Chapter 51: The Desert Island Crisis
When Genma woke up, he was lying on a stretch of sand. Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info
"Thank goodness I survived!" Genma struggled to get up from the beach and checked his body. I didn't suffer any injuries, but my body was a little weak, and the quality of the space backpack passed the test and was still on my back.
"Thank you, starfish, come back and rest first. Genma took out the Poké Ball and retrieved the exhausted starfish beside him. This time, thanks to this guy, he would have been washed away by the waves and would have gotten nowhere, instead of waking up on such a beach.
"Where is this?" Genma looked around, he didn't know him at all, and the charts and locators were not in his backpack. I can only wait for a ship to pass by and rescue.
"I hope I don't get washed too far, otherwise I don't know how long it will take to be rescued. "Multi-track should find someone to rescue itself when it is safe, and it will be difficult to find it if it is washed too far.
"Looks like Robinson had to live for a while before he was rescued, but then again, the island is too desolate, isn't it?"
The small island where Genma woke up is not small, and it looks like it is estimated to be similar to the island where the flying mantis was subdued, but the environment is very different. The island where the flying praying mantis lives is full of green trees, while the island in front of you is full of strange rocks and barren grass.
"I don't know if I can find food in this place, and if I can't find it, I'll have to go to the sea to catch fish. Genma said worriedly. There isn't much food in the space backpack, it's only enough to eat for a day or two, but it doesn't seem like there are any fish to catch near this island!
"Come out, Flying Mantis. Genma called out the Flying Mantis, on this kind of island where you don't know the roots, it's better to take some precautions.
With the Flying Mantis in hand, Genma began to explore the island. The island is as inhospitable as it appears at first glance, with little soil and little fertility, and only a few weeds grow. All kinds of uneven rocks are severely weathered under the action of sunlight, rain, and sea breeze, and can break a large piece of rock with a single kick. When Genma walked to the center of the island, he could already clearly see the edge of the island on the other side.
"I didn't find anything, this island is a little strange!" Genma muttered to himself, walking around, except for the feathers of some bird Pokémon found in some rock crevices, it was really strange that he didn't encounter any animals, "It seems that I have heard of such a thing somewhere." Genma struggled to recall.
But after thinking about it for a long time, Genma still didn't think about it. "Forget it, let's find a place to rest first. The Flying Mantis also nodded in agreement, it also had some stomach and wanted to eat something.
Finding a rock that looked smooth, Genma sat down, released the large-mouthed bat, Eevee, and starfish, and took out food and ate it with them. I was in a coma for a day, and the elves had eaten yesterday morning, and they were already very hungry, and when they saw the food, they didn't care about the huge gap between the taste of compressed dry food and the multi-track cuisine, and ate it in a big gulp.
After eating the food, Genma did not take the elves back, but let them move freely outside, and after staying in the Poké Ball for a long time, he also let them come out to move.
Eevee's injuries had healed a lot at this time, and he was happily burrowing through the grass, when suddenly, he found something strange, and hurriedly brought it over to show Genma.
"What is this, snake molt?" Genma looked at the thing that Eevee was holding in front of him, looked at it carefully, and was surprised to recognize that it was the skin of a snake Pokémon Abel.
"Damn, I remember what I forgot. Watching the snake molt, Genma remembered what he was worried about before.
In my previous life, I had heard that some of the isolated islands in the sea were "Snake Island". "These islands are extremely inhospitable, with very little produce, and there are very few fish around. The only creatures on the island are snakes, which feed on the migratory birds that inhabit the island during their migration. They are fed for a year when the birds appear, after which they stop eating and are sustained at very low metabolic levels. In fact, only creatures like snakes, which can regulate their metabolism very slowly, can survive in this cruel environment of lack of food.
But after all, that's a matter of the previous life, and in the world in this life, it's hard for ordinary snakes to pose a threat to people, and it's those snake Pokémon that can really pose a threat. Eevee's discovery of the snake moult shows that there are at least snake Pokémon like Abel on this island, and according to the laws of nature, there should be more Abel snakes on this island. For these elves, who are chronically starved of food, they have more toxins than those snakes who fight a lot. And what they have caught in the past is certainly not ordinary birds, and may even have caught bird Pokémon. In this case, in order to ensure that they can get enough food, they will definitely be very strong, in other words, those who are not strong enough have already starved to death.
"No, we have to take precautions, otherwise we will be in danger if we are besieged by those snake Pokémon. "The nearby sea is barren, there are few fish, and it has been a long time since the last bird migration, and I and the elves, for those hungry snakes, are like a meal to our door.
"Ievee, Big-mouthed Bat, come back first. "Genma took back the two elves, because Eevee has not recovered from his injuries and cannot exert his combat effectiveness, and the large-mouthed bat is suitable for nocturnal activities, so it is better to let it rest well and conserve its strength.
"Flying Mantis, Sea Starfish, you have learned these two skills first. Genma took out two skill machines from his backpack. They are holding and freezing rays, and they are held to the flying mantis, which was originally intended to wait for it to evolve into a giant pincer mantis before learning from it, after all, the giant pincer mantis is four times weaker fire, and the fire skill is too threatening, and if you learn to hold it, you can improve your fire resistance. And the freezing light gives the starfish, which is the most suitable skill for high-attack it.
Both Pokémon are happy to be able to learn new skills. Genma opened the skill machine and placed it on top of their heads (the jewel of the starfish), and the skill machine passed information about the skills to them, and the two Pokémon quickly learned both skills. However, this is only a matter of learning, and there is a high chance that they will fail when they make moves, and it will take a lot of practice over a certain period of time to truly master these two skills.
"After learning the skills, we're going to build fortifications, Starfish, you're in charge of the vigilance, and the Flying Mantis is here to help. "If there are a large number of snake elves on this island, it will be difficult for a few elves alone to stop their attack, and some measures must be taken.
Genma chose to build fortifications on the beach where he woke up, as there was a lot of sand for easy use, while the rest of the place was full of rocks and difficult to build.
Starfish fall on the beach and quickly become the same color as the sand, merging with the sand. The Flying Mantis, on the other hand, gathered the sand together under Genma's command and slapped it vigorously to form a solid circular sand wall defense circle. After the defensive ring was built, the sun gradually set, and it was the night when the snake elves were most likely to start their activities.
As the sun sets, there are many lives hidden in the underground stone crevices on the island that are reviving little by little, their heartbeats are speeding up little by little, and their vitality is becoming stronger little by little, and even the rock formations can't stop it, appearing in Genma's perception・・・・・・
