"Hello, I am the self-service robot of Oliva Elf Restaurant, you have spent a total of 25238 elf coins this time, please select your payment method."

An emotionless mechanical voice emanates from the robot.

"Pay in cash."

As he spoke, Xia Chen took out several banknotes from his wallet, and the dozens of coins that had been prepared for a long time made a crisp clanging collision.

At the same time, he manipulates his superpowers to monitor Suo Cailing's movements.

Not surprisingly, a small elf in the corner immediately became excited when he saw the coin in Xia Chen's hand, and his mental fluctuations fluctuated greatly for a moment.

And its body, uncontrollably, approached it.

Under the temptation of so many coins, the current Suo Cailing has no brains.

Besides, even if it's a trap, it's not afraid.

After so many years of traveling south and north, Suo Cailing's strength may not even be able to beat the Rada in the sewers, but when it comes to the ability to escape, it has been trained on the edge of being beaten again and again.

Stealing hundreds of coins, it has been caught many times, but each time, he has been able to escape.

This time, I won't miss a beat!

Thinking so, Suo Cailing quietly approached in the direction of the target.

Not only the speed of escape, but also the speed of Suo Cailing itself.

What if the thief doesn't start quickly, what if you miss the fleeting opportunity?

As usual, he trotted all the way over, and at the same time, the spirit of Suo Cai activated the ghostly energy in his body, ready to interfere with the victim.

The principle of interference is not difficult, it is an illusion that simple ghost elves are very good at.

It can be regarded as a youth version of the fantasy world that Xia Chen had in the abandoned hotel when he traveled in the Carlos area, after all, the strength of this Suo Cai Ling is much worse than that of the Dream Demon.

But it's enough to deal with a human.

The energy diffused in a small area, and the mini-illusion instantly condensed, and Suo Cailing took the five coins from the human's hand as usual.

Why it only took five and not more, it's not that it follows any "thief has the way", the main thing is that it can't fit any more...

Glancing greedily at the remaining coins in the human's hand, Suo Cailing reluctantly turned around, ready to hold the five coins open.

However, the moment it opened its legs, it discovered something terrible.

His body doesn't seem to be able to move...

To be precise, the space around him suddenly became extremely viscous, making it difficult for Suo Cailing to move.

The speed it prides itself on, fails!

Suo Cailing was stunned, what kind of move is this?

Obviously, his speed ability state has not been reduced or affected in any way, how can he suddenly not be able to run?

No, it's not the point, the point is, how do you get out?

At this time, Suo Cailing finally reacted, this is a net specially laid for it.

But by this time it was too late to react.

"Sticky—"

A long dragging sound came, and Suo Cailing looked up, only to see a purple jelly flying towards him at an extremely fast speed.

On the other side, two white satins with blue-pink ends also whirred and whirred, pumping sharply towards their positions.

There are wolves in front and tigers in the back, and they can't run.

Suo Cailing sighed, my life is over!

…………

"Thank you for helping our restaurant solve this trouble, and in return, I'll help you get a free meal tonight."

Seeing that Suo Cailing, who had done a lot of evil, was knocked unconscious and imprisoned in a Poké Ball, the restaurant manager expressed his gratitude to Xia Chen.

Although a Suo Cai Ling had to steal the Year of the Monkey to invest the money for Xia Chen's meal tonight, the important thing was not those coins, but the dining experience of the guests in the restaurant.

So the manager thinks it's not too much to waive the guest's order.

Xia Chen did not refuse the other party's kindness, and said with a smile: "Then thank you, everyone takes what they need, and I just want to accept a Suo Cai Ling." ”

Although he didn't understand why Xia Chen wanted to subdue this elf, who had no other advantages except for being able to run, the restaurant manager still smiled and nodded.

"Understood, then, welcome to the Oliva Elf Restaurant next time!"

In the sound of farewell, Xia Chen and Mingyi left the restaurant with the elves and went to the Brewing Light Hotel on the top floor of the Brewing Light Tower to check in.

As you can tell from the name and location, this is the best hotel in Brewguang City, and the price is naturally expensive.

But Xia Chen doesn't care much about this now, money is just a string of numbers for him.

His ultimate ideal is to enjoy life in peace with the elves, and of course he will not treat himself and Mingyi badly at this time.

So, he opened two elf suites very generously.

It's a pity that it is the peak travel season, and the rooms of the Brewing Light Hotel are full, and the front desk regretfully informs that there is only one room left.

Xia Chen, who was in a hurry to get Suo Cailing, didn't bother to find other accommodations, so after paying for the key and taking the key, he and Mingyi walked to the hotel.

Looking at the hurried backs of this young couple, the front desk showed a smile that hid his merit and fame.

"What are you doing with Suo Cailing? Breed to be your next main elf? ”

In the room, Ming Yi asked curiously.

Xia Chen shook his head lightly and replied: "At present, it is only used for elf research, and the main elves... It depends, let's take this guy in first. ”

Although Suo Cailing has now stayed in Xia Chen's Poke Ball, this does not mean that he has successfully subdued Suo Cailing.

The Poké Ball has no brainwashing effect, and if Suo Cailing is unwilling, it can run away at any time.

In the anime, Ash's croaking bubble frog and tsundere snake both escaped from the original trainer's Poké Ball.

It couldn't be easier for an elf like Suo Cailing to run, so Xia Chen decided to talk to it.

"Okay, then you talk to it first, and I'll take a shower."

Ming Yi stretched, revealing a plump curve that did not look like an eighteen-year-old girl at all.

"Well, there you go."

Xia Chen replied casually, thinking in his mind about how to convince Suo Cailing to become his elf for a while.

Mingyi, who was obliquely glancing at Xia Chen's reaction, was slightly frustrated.

This guy... Sometimes I really don't understand what is going on in his head.

…………

There was an ambiguous sound of water rattling in the bathroom, but Xia Chen threw out a Poke Ball without distraction.

White light flashed, pure white skirt fluttered, and Shanaiduo appeared in the room.

"Shanaiduo, help open up another trick space."

Although Suo Cailing should be in a bad state at this time, it is still necessary to prevent the possibility of it escaping.

"Saina~"

Shanaiduo responded, and after a while, there were bursts of wonderful energy ripples in the space, and an invisible barrier appeared in this space, and the construction of the magic space was completed.

He also called the sticky treasure as an anchor to exchange speed with Suo Cailing, and Xia Chen threw out the still hot Poke Ball in his hand.

White light flashed, and the unconscious coin-carrying villain appeared in the magic space in front of him.

Looking at Suo Cailing, who was still holding the five coins even though he was knocked unconscious, Xia Chen shook his head angrily and funny.

What a miser...

"Shanaiduo, give it a healing wave."

It's not false to say that Suo Cailing's race is weak, but he was pressed by the sticky treasure in the restaurant, and the silk of the fairy cloth was whipped and he lost his ability to fight.

Xia Chen felt that if he wanted to put it in the game, this guy's race value would be at most three hundred heavens, plus a small half of it would be divided into speed, and the durability would be low.

Under the healing of the pink super-energy energy particles, Suo Cailing woke up slowly.

"Wow!"

Suo Cailing, who had just woken up, was obviously in a state of stress, and shouted fiercely.

Xia Chen ignored it, but let it understand the situation it was in now.

It was stunned for two seconds before it realized that it was now a prisoner.

The instinct of the body made Suo Cailing want to run away, but soon, it found itself in that strange space again.

The feeling of powerlessness in the sky and no way to enter the ground made Suo Cailing feel deeply frustrated, it looked up at Xia Chen, and after struggling for a while, it finally reluctantly handed out the five coins that were tightly held in his hand.

Although its name is Suo Cailing, it still knows whether money is important or life is important.

"Wow! (Don't kill me, I'll give you all the coins!) ）”

Xia Chen understood what it wanted to express from Suo Cailing's frightened tone, and he snorted, "Hu Tu! Kill you, won't the coins be mine too! ”

Suo Cailing froze, as if... That's what happened.

Wait, is this human really going to kill himself?

Didn't you steal 500, it shouldn't be...

It's hard to say, if this human has been stolen a lot of money by other wealth seekers before, he will vent his anger on himself.

It's not impossible...

…………

While Suo Cailing was worried, Xia Chen coughed and continued: "You should know that you have stolen too many coins in this city, and you have done a lot of evil, and you have committed more than just the crime of stealing my five coins. ”

"Now, I can give you a chance to atone for your sins and turn over a new leaf, and that is to work on my side for a year!"

Xia Chentu was poor, and Suo Cailing, who had calmed down, gradually understood the true intentions of this human being...

He covets his body!

The shrewd Suo Cailing looked at Xia Chen with humble eyes, it turned out that this guy had done so much nonsense in order to subdue himself...

So what's there to be afraid of?

Suo Cailing's mentality was completely relaxed.

Those who are favored have nothing to fear, if this human wants to subdue himself, will he hurt himself?

Apparently impossible!

Thinking of this, Suo Cailing unhurriedly put the five coins on the ground, and then leaned on them leisurely, looking like a hob meat.

Acceptance?

It is impossible to be subdued in this life, and the little Lada in the sewer speaks nicely, and although the stinky mud is very smelly, it is also very kind.

I love staying in it!

Listening to Rada, who was abandoned by human trainers, he said that if he becomes a human elf, he will not be free, and he will not be able to go out and steal coins in the future, and the key is to do that kind of useless training and fighting.

Why did you suffer that kind of sin with your own small body?

Tut...

Looking at Suo Cailing, who was in a state of nothingness, Xia Chen shook his head helplessly.

This guy is quite clever, and it seems that Plan A [coercion] has failed.

Well, plan b to implement!

Xia Chen said with emotion: "Okay, to be honest with you, the purpose I want to subdue you is to study the evolution of your Suo Cai Ling clan, I said, you don't want your Suo Cai Ling to be in this situation of only escaping, right?" ”

"If you succeed in evolution, then you will be the first Fortune Seeker in this world to complete the evolution!"

Evolve?

Can we still evolve?

Xia Chen's second set of rhetoric made Suo Cailing a little moved.

The strong nature is engraved in the bones of all elves, and if they can, who doesn't want to be strong.

But not everything in this world is as good as the elves want, and Suo Cailing's racial restrictions are over there, no matter how hard you try, the ceiling is so high.

In this case, it is better to simply swing.

But... If there is a chance to evolve, who wants to live the life of a rat living in a sewer and stealing coins every day?

Looking at Xia Chen's sincere eyes, Suo Cailing was a little moved.

Or become the spirit of this human being?

…………

No, there is something wrong with the logic of what this human is saying!

Suo Cailing suddenly woke up.

We don't know that we can evolve, how did he know?

He's painting a flatbread!

Suo Cailing remembered the story shared by the little Rada, who had been abandoned by the human trainer.

It said that its former trainer also said every day, "When I become a champion, I will give you the best energy cubes and the most expensive elf props every day!" ”

Later, Little Lada learned that the champion was the only one among tens of millions of trainers in a region.

It's the guy who runs around in the wild in shorts all day long and can't possibly achieve in his life.

Human beings are creatures who are good at creating illusions!

Little Lada finally concluded.

Thinking back to the present, Suo Cailing couldn't help but weigh what Xia Chen said.

What is the first to evolve Suo Cailing, isn't this the same as becoming a champion, the kind of words that only a fool would believe!

Suo Cailing was certainly not stupid, so it stopped its original point.

turned to sneer: "Wow! (Looks like a good proposition...) However, I refuse! ）”

Xia Chen couldn't cry or laugh, this guy, his vigilance is inevitably too strong...

I'm a little uncertain about how I evolved, but it's true.

I had no choice but to use the last move.

"I didn't want to do things so badly."

Xia Chen sighed lightly and said slowly: "I didn't want our relationship to become so dirty, but since you don't want to get in..."

Filthy? What is dirty?

Suo Cailing's surprise, Xia Chen slowly raised five fingers.

"Just become my elf and I'll give you five hundred coins every day, and many more good things you can't imagine, how about it?"

Suo Cailing: "! ”

As soon as he heard the coin, Suo Cailing immediately jumped up from his lying state, and the antennae like the two antennas above his head were also instantly supported.

There is no doubt that this condition directly pokes at the weakness of Suo Cailing.

What evolution, the future, it's all virtual, only the coin is real!

Wait, isn't this guy painting himself a pie again!

500 a day, 15,000 a month, how can a normal person have so much money, and he still gives himself an elf who has almost no combat power and no room for growth.

Facing Suo Cailing's vigilant gaze, Xia Chen smiled slightly, "Don't doubt my financial resources, the assets I have, exchanged for coins, are enough to fill the entire room." ”

Xia Chen didn't know how many coins it would take to fill the whole room, but he was done.

First of all, give this guy who has never seen the market a little capitalist shock.

Suo Cailing was shocked, but in addition to shock, it was more of a suspicion.

Fill the whole room with coins, scammer, right?

In the face of doubts, Xia Chen didn't talk nonsense, and directly took out a large box of coins that had been prepared from the storage ball and poured it directly in front of Suo Cailing.

The wonderful sound of the clinking of coins sounded like heaven in Suo Cailing's ears, and he stared at the pile of coins in front of him with bright eyes, as if he was in heaven.

It was about to swim in a sea of coins when a strip of silk tied its body.

Suo Cailing looked at the coin that was close but couldn't touch it, and there were almost 10,000 ants crawling all over his body.

At the same time, a demonic voice lingered in its ears.

"Well, do you want to think about becoming my elf again?"

After all, Suo Cailing's will did not defeat the desire, and it hung its head down.

"Wow... (I'm willing...) ）”

The days of freedom can never go back...

But there is no way, he gave too much...

…………

"Shanaiduo, the magic space is closed, come and welcome our new partner."

"Saina~"

Listening to the conversation between Xia Chen and Shanaiduo, Suo Cailing realized that the move that restrained him was called the Trick Space.

Although Suo Cailing had never been in contact with elf battles before, and he had no concept of the division of strength, he could vaguely guess that if he could master such a powerful move, the strength of the elves must be very strong.

Your own trainer, is it so strong...

As the energy dissipated, the viscous space disappeared, and the air seemed to circulate normally.

The silk that bound the soul was loosened, and it rushed unhindered into the coveted pile of coins.

Coins... Shiny coins... My favorite coin...

Suo Cailing swam in the pile of gold coins, feeling the simplest and purest happiness.

It didn't notice it, and several dark shadows silently surrounded it.

By the time Suo Cailing came back to his senses from the indulgent pleasure, the six elves had already formed a circle and surrounded it in the middle.

“... Wow? (You guys...) What are you going to do? ）”

Suo Cailing looked at these elves whose strength was far stronger than his own with a little weakness, and he didn't understand what they wanted to do.

The pink-white elf, who he had never seen before, suddenly grinned and revealed a pair of small tiger teeth.

"Bui~ (Welcome to the team, I'm the boss of the team, just call me Xianbu~ I accidentally injured you when I caught you just now, please don't care, when you get stronger in the future, you are welcome to fight back.) ）”

"Woo! (Welcome to the team, I saw my original shadow in you, rest assured, it doesn't matter if you are weak now, as long as you believe in Xia Chen, you will become stronger, definitely!) ）”

This is a manas that is so big, many times bigger than himself, and countless times more beautiful than himself.

"Saina~(If something suddenly appears in your head, don't panic, it's all normal~)"

The powerful Shanaiduo, who could trick the space, said something strange and he couldn't understand.

"Suo... (If you want to learn any moves, or if you need my help, you can ask me...) ）”

A handsome and sassy humanoid demon fox said the most heartwarming words in the coldest tone.

"Messi~(You came in a hurry, I didn't prepare any gifts, but I will definitely make up for you in a few days~)"

A dragon about the same age as herself, Messia said in the tone of an old-timer.

"Sticky-(I don't know what to say, in short, Xia Chen is a very good person, welcome to join the team!) ）”

The purple jelly that had attacked her with great speed reached out and touched herself.

Suo Cailing: "......"

After doing so for a long time, did it turn out that I was welcome to join the team?

However, this feeling doesn't seem to be bad...

…………

"Eh, have you already taken it? So fast, huh? ”

Mingyi, who had just finished taking a shower, was flushed, delicate as if she could pinch the water.

She wiped her wet hair while inquiring about the story of what happened to Xia Chen and Suo Cailing during the time they took a bath.

Xia Chen glanced at the soft and soft things on Mingyi's chest that were lively and jumping with the movements of his hands, and judged from experience... The girl seemed to be wearing only a nightgown.

Damn, it's really not like a childhood sweetheart is a man!

Even though he thought so, Xia Chen still shrunk his ass slightly, trying not to let his weapon be too conspicuous.

After coughing lightly, he replied, "Well, the conversation went well, and we're getting along pretty well now." ”

Suo Cailing nodded in agreement.

He gave me coins, and he was right.

"Oh, that's good, speaking of which, you just said that elf research, is it the study of evolution?"

Ming Yi asked curiously.

Xia Chen rubbed his brows in distress, "Although this research direction is correct, I don't have a clue at the moment, so I can only explore while traveling." ”

Suo Cailing on the side pursed his lips, he didn't even have a clue, what evolution he talked about before was really a big pie.

"It's okay, take your time, I'll accompany you."

Mingyi, who was wiping his hair on the bed, knelt behind Xia Chen, his thumb gently and gently pressed on his temples to relieve his fatigue.

The fragrance of hair penetrated into her nose, and the girl's wet hair was on her cheeks, as if a kitten was scratching, and the slight itching sensation made Xia Chen's heart move inexplicably.

"Are you comfortable?" Mingyi exhaled in his ear.

"Hmm..."

Xia Chen replied honestly.

Although the massage technique is far worse than Shanaiduo, the softness of the cushion on the back of his head makes him feel like he is in a large ball of cotton, and he can't wait to sink into it.

That's too foul, isn't it?

No, if you continue like this, you will make a mistake!

At the critical moment, Xia Chen's will defeated his desire, he hurriedly got up from Ming Yi's arms, bent down and rushed to the direction of the bathroom.

"I'm going to take a shower..."

Ming Yi touched her already hot cheeks, only to feel that her heart was beating fast.

She looked at Xia Chen's back as he ran away in embarrassment, with firmness in her eyes.

On this trip, be sure to...

…………

The size of the elf suite is large, and it is not crowded at all for two people and ten elves.

Xia Chen didn't dare to sleep on the same bed with Mingyi, so he ran to the living room with the quilt on the bed.

Although the sofa in a luxury hotel is soft, it is still far from the size of the bed.

Shanaiduo, who still wanted to squeeze into one sofa with Xia Chen, was driven to another sofa mercilessly.

Xianbu and Sticky Treasure were curled up on the carpet on the side, only Suo Cailing, who had just joined the team, was not used to being so close, and hid in a corner in a daze.

It's thinking back on the day, or rather, the night's amazing experience.

Obviously, a few hours ago, he was a weak wild spirit that no one would think of subduing, but now he was subdued by a powerful trainer.

Although... Their current relationship is more like that of a boss and a worker.

Himself for him to study evolution, he gave himself his favorite coin.

But after joining the team, the sincere welcome of the seniors in the team made Suo Cailing have an unrealistic fantasy.

It's like having a home...

But could this be true?

Suo Cailing thought of the little Lada who had been abandoned back into the sewers by the human trainer, and it was also because it had been unable to evolve for a long time, so it became an excuse for the trainer to never win the battle, and then abandoned it.

Will you be treated like this?

Because I couldn't evolve for a long time, and I was too weak to be abandoned...

Just as he was thinking wildly, Suo Cailing saw the beautiful dragon snake swimming towards him.

The silver-blue light outside the glass curtain wall shone on his fine white jade-like scales, and the glow exuded a brilliant azure color.

Suo Cailing watched as Menas approached him, not understanding what he wanted to do.

(I can feel your confusion and hesitation, are you afraid of something?) ）”

Menas's dragon-like clarity is so moving.

Feeling the kindness emanating from this senior, Suo Cailing hesitated for a moment and nodded.

…………

Menas leaned over slowly, his long rose-red eyebrows hanging to the ground, and looked softly at his new companion in front of him.

"Uhhhh (Do you know the elf of the ugly fish?) ）”

Suo Cailing shook his head, it had been inhabiting the city, and it didn't know any fish spirits in the water.

"Uh-woo (Ugly ugly fish, an ugly, weak elf, its body is the most inconspicuous gray, its surface is pitted, and its eyes are dull and untouched, even among all the aquatic elves, it is the least popular elf.) ）”

For some reason, Suo Cailing always felt that Menas's tone was slightly nostalgic.

But why did he suddenly say this to himself?

Menas suddenly asked, "Huh?" (Do you want to believe that Xia Chen would subdue such an elf?) ）”

Suo Cailing subconsciously shook his head, "Wow... (Should...) No way? ）”

Xia Chen's elves are all powerful and beautiful, and even the two elves that have not fully grown up are also elves who are late bloomers and have unlimited futures, which are like themselves...

"Uhhhh (But he ended up subduing an ugly fish...) ）”

Menas's words made Suo Cailing, who was becoming more and more inferior, raise his head, and he looked at Menas with a look of nostalgia in his eyes in surprise, and suddenly realized.

"Wow? (You're the ugly fish you evolved?) ）”

Menas nodded, "Woo-woo (I'm not trying to tell you anything, the ugly fish can evolve into Menas because it has this gene in its body, and the green caterpillar can never evolve into a fierce empty seat.) ）”

"Woo-(But Xia Chen will choose you must have his considerations, if you are willing to believe him, you will definitely be able to become your ideal person, I am glad that in that river, I entered his Poké Ball, if I had made a different choice, I might still be the ugly fish who saw the fish and bullied me.) ）”

(So, I hope you don't have any regrets, think about it again.) ）”

After saying that, Menas went back to the sofa where Xia Chen was sleeping and curled up.

Only Suo Cailing was left in place to reflect on the last few words he said.

Believe Xia Chen, complete the transformation?

Anyway, it's already at the bottom, and no matter how you go, it's up, so...

Can you really give it a try?

As Suo Cailing made his own choice in his heart, a voice that was difficult to distinguish between male and female suddenly sounded in his head.

[Hello dear host, Shenhao System will serve you wholeheartedly~]
