The island is in a special location, right under the Cauldron Lake waterfall.

The turbulent water washes over the area day after day, piling up the sand from the river and making the soil on the island quite fertile.

Because of this, it has become a breeding paradise for spicy secret plants.

And today, in the midst of this sudden and fierce fight, the paradise has been devastated.

On an island that can only fit a dozen Howlers, Eaters and Menas are fighting fiercely.

However, it was only the scene that was intense, and in reality, the two elves did not suffer much physical damage.

After releasing the meteor swarm, Menas understood that his output was no longer a threat to the roaring tyrant.

On the one hand, the Meteor Swarm has greatly reduced its special attack ability, and on the other hand, the duration of the abilities that Butterfly Dance has improved is coming to an end.

Judging from the feedback of speed, it has begun to decline gradually.

The good news is that, due to its body structure, Eater's adaptability to land is not at all comparable to that of Menas.

Coupled with the fact that Menas deliberately hid his body behind the spicy secret plant, he didn't dare to use the strength at all.

In its eyes, Menas no longer poses a threat to itself, and the most important thing is to do everything possible to keep the baby.

But the more he thought about it, the more Menas took advantage of his psychological weakness to deal with it.

Looking at Menas, who was meandering flexibly in the flower field, he roared angrily, but he was still helpless after all.

The guerrilla battle between the two elves did not last long, and this delicate balance was broken by Xia Chen and Gu Letun, who arrived there.

The orange-red wheel of light fell from the sky, blocking the gap between Eater and Menas.

…………

"Uhhh

Looking at the figure standing firmly in front of him like a mountain, Menas breathed a long sigh of relief.

There is not much time left for the butterfly dance state bonus, and if Xia Chen hasn't rushed over, it's really hard to say what the consequences will be.

On the other side, the Roarer Eater also stared at Gu Leton vigilantly, and it was very impressed by this terrifying and dangerous red lizard.

If it weren't for the instinctive reaction of the body's stress, it might have been there.

And now, the battlefield has come to the ground that I am extremely unfamiliar with... The odds of winning this battle are low.

But even so, Eater Roar didn't want to escape from the water.

It can run, but the secret plants on the island can't.

These are the roots that make it powerful, and they are things that they have to protect desperately.

Therefore, the roaring bully had to tense his huge body and brazenly look at Gu Leton.

At this moment, there is only one belief in its heart, the fish is there, the fruit is there!

However, what he didn't expect was that Xia Chen, who firmly grasped the initiative, did not choose to fight.

"Take it easy, I don't mean to break the net with you."

As he spoke, Xia Chen jumped down from Gu Leton, picked up the two red secret plants on the ground and stared slightly.

If nothing else, this should be a spicy secret plant.

The things he wanted most for this trip were in hand, and Menas was safe and sound, so Xia Chen naturally didn't have the mind to entangle with the yelling bully.

Therefore, Lerton does not have an absolute advantage over Shang's roaring tyrant, not to mention that the other party still has a Mi Lilong who is also a heavenly king-level in his stomach, and he doesn't want to make things end badly.

And Xia Chen's concession made the Big Mac in front of him a little tidy, although its brain is not good, but the Mi Lilong in its mouth has a high IQ.

At this moment, Eater Roar has roughly understood the ins and outs of the whole thing from Mi Lilong's analysis.

It's all a conspiracy of the other party, a conspiracy to find your own treasure!

And now that the conspiracy has been reached, the treasure he wants is in front of him, but he says he wants to give up?

Who would believe this kind of nonsense!

Xia Chen didn't care whether it believed it or not, and after picking a dozen more secret plants, it took out the Poke Ball and put away Menas, and returned to the body of the old Leton.

Before leaving, Xia Chen suddenly thought of something, turned his head and added: "By the way, after a while, a group of people will come here, they will do some work here, and of course, in return, they will also help you restore this place to its original state." ”

The island had been ravaged by Menas and Eaters, and the once lush scene had been shattered by a storm of storms.

Hearing Xia Chen's kind words, the roaring bully was silent for a long time, and finally opened his huge mouth, and inside, a huge Mi Lilong with a body length of nearly one meter jumped out.

"Huh? (You...) Why? ）”

Although the expression was indiscerning, Xia Chen could hear the confusion in its tone.

Xia Chen smiled and didn't answer it.

There's no need to explain cultivation to a wild elf who hasn't had much contact with humans.

Since you can't deal with it, you just need to maintain a good relationship with it.

Under the complicated eyes of Mi Lilong, Loton spread his wings and left the island.

…………

After flying in the direction he came from for a short while, Xia Chen saw the [Mi Lilong] who was also rushing here at full speed.

So Lerton immediately glided down and landed on the deck.

The elves who were worried about the safety of Menas swarmed up, and Xia Chen released Menas and reported their safety with practical actions.

Although Menas was not injured, the pursuit and fighting along the way also made him look quite tired.

However, the state is not the point, and the elves keenly found that after returning from this trip, Menas's strength seems to have increased a lot!

There is a faint meaning of getting rid of Xianbu and Shanaiduo, and surpassing the first echelon of the original team's strength.

In just ten minutes, it was promoted to the level of a gym?

The elves were a little surprised, but they weren't too shocked.

It's no secret that they each have little secrets, and it is Menas's "secret" that helps him in the danger.

Xia Chen is also observing Menas, not only in strength, but also in appearance, compared to before, he has a big difference.

I still remember that when he first evolved, Menas was only a little over six meters old, and now...

Xia Chen glanced up and down, this is nearly ten meters!

It's not that elves will be fixed in size after evolution, but even if they are long, they are not as long as Menas.

It's not just the size that catches eye, but also the appearance, although you can still tell that he is a Menas, but he gives people the overall feeling...

It's like he's evolving towards a more advanced species... No, it should be said that it is a metamorphosis.

In the elven world, evolution is a momentary change, and the word metamorphosis is more appropriate for Menas to change this step-by-step situation.

…………

"So, your current strength has reached the level of a gym?"

Although he already had the answer in his heart, Xia Chen couldn't help but confirm it with Menas.

"Woo~ (That's right, but there is still a gap in the level of the main elves of the bizarre tree.) ）”

Menas briefly described where he was now.

Like the elite level, the gym level is also a strength range with a large span.

The Trainers Association has officially set the concept of one to three stars for it, like Menas now, it is less than one star.

However, if you have just reached the level of a gym, you generally do not have the qualifications to become a gym master and guide the majority of trainers.

"Uh-woo - (By the way, Xia Chen, you know... What does race value mean? ）”

Out of danger, Menas finally had time to sort out the series of rewards he had received after reaching 25% growth.

First of all, he had never heard of this race value before, so if he didn't understand it, he thought that his all-powerful trainer should know something.

Xia Chen's heart suddenly, although there is a manifestation of race in this world, the official did not give a statement of race value.

How could Menas suddenly ask this, could it be that his system showed it?

Thinking so, he nodded, "You know something, it's probably to show the average individual performance of each elf and each ability in the form of numerical values, what's wrong?" ”

Menas's eyes lit up, and then he asked, "Uhhh (That...) What level is the sum of six hundred? ）”

Xia Chen: "......"

What level is six hundred?

The standard quasi-god level of Slimy Dragon and Dolong Barruto!

Menas asked, is it... His system scored him six hundred?

But isn't Menas' race value in the game five hundred and four? Sixty points?

If it is true, then his previous guess is not wrong, Menas is really transforming in a higher direction.

"Probably, the top level of ordinary elves is about the same as the final form of those late-blooming elves."

Xia Chen thought for a moment and asked, "But the sum is the same thing... Do you know the assignment of each item? ”

Even if the sum is six hundred, if each item is a mediocre hundred, the effective race value is only five hundred, although it also exceeds the vast majority of ordinary elves, but Xia Chen doesn't think it's great.

Menas was impressed by the string of numbers, nodded and replied, "Uh-woo - (it seems, 110 health, 50 attack, 100 defense, 120 special attack, 130 special defense, 90 speed...) ）”

…………

Hiss –

Hearing this terrifying assignment, Xia Chen directly gasped.

And this distribution?

Not only did the required abilities not be cut, but they were greatly strengthened, and the most unwanted attacks were also reduced by ten points?

On the surface, it only adds 60 points, but it is actually more comfortable than the 100 race points added by some elves MEGA evolution.

For example, a certain dragon quasi-god who can't dance dragons...

In general, Menas retains the original characteristics of high special attack and high special defense, and on this basis, it also strengthens the original relatively weak life and physical defense, the only pity is that the speed is still a little embarrassing ninety.

It would be nice if you only kept your attack at 15 like Mega Needle Bee and added the rest to your speed...

Xia Chen was dreaming here, but his long silence made Menas a little panicked, "Uhhhh (Isn't this race value bad?) ）”

Xia Chen was quite speechless about Menas's Versailles remarks, "If this is not good, then there are no good elves in this world..."

One thing to say, this race value is even more perfect than the string of numbers "108, 130, 95, 80, 85, 102" that made the earth dragon fans in the previous life memorize.

Xia Chen's affirmation put Menas at ease.

Well, the reward of race value is clear, but the chain of rewards is more than that.

A 20% increase in all stats is also a big bonus, but it's very easy to understand, so there's nothing to ask.

And the other reward, the [Move Pack], also made Menas a little confused.

The previous three moves, butterfly dance, water spray, and meteor swarm, although he couldn't learn it theoretically, knew it.

But this time, the three of them may leap into the abyss, respond to the dragon in the sky, and draw the earth into a river...

He was very sure that none of the three moves existed in the list of moves of the whole elves.

So, this will be like the dragon arrow is to Doron Barutto, its own exclusive move?

Judging from the name, there is a high probability that this is the case.

Since it was a move that was not available in the existing move list, Menas didn't ask Xia Chen again, anyway, he would know when the growth level was unlocked.

After binge-eating many Esoteric plants, it is currently at 26% growth, not far from unlocking 30% of [or Leap into the Abyss].

Exclusive moves... The result?

Menas couldn't help but start looking forward to it.

…………

On the other hand, Xia Chen didn't care about Menas anymore after receiving the surprise of race value.

In any case, it is good that the elves are developing towards the good, and Xia Chen only needs to be their solid and reliable backing.

Instead, he took out the crimson Esoteric plant he had brought down from the island.

It just so happened that Paipa walked out of the cabin after hearing the movement outside, and with sharp eyes, he saw at a glance what Xia Chen was thinking about in his hand.

He walked briskly towards Xia Chen excitedly, while introducing the origin and function of this plant as if he were talking to himself.

"A spicy secret plant?! According to the Book of Vermilion Zizhi, it has the effect of rapidly promoting metabolism, and it is the most helpful one among the five plants for injury healing! ”

Xia Chen nodded clearly, he remembered the superficial high school biology knowledge in his previous life, metabolism is the process of living organisms constantly replacing old substances with new substances, and it is the basis of all life activities.

It's no wonder that when it passed, the originally seriously injured Roaring Eater had basically returned to his heyday.

Maybe Menas's rapid progress has something to do with eating these secret plants?

Could this thing be good for the other elves as well?

Thinking so, Xia Chen made a decision, "Today's lunch, we will use this to make seasonings, and everyone will eat together!" ”

Pippa was surprised, "Eat together?" That's not enough, isn't it? ”

Xia Chen smiled and took out a dozen more from the storage ball, "Mi Lilong has more brains than that dragworm, it and Eater Roar have planted that small island full of secret plants, this time it doesn't need to be so provincial." ”

As he spoke, he looked up at the sun hanging high in the sky, and after tossing and turning with them for so long, before he knew it, it was almost lunchtime.

"Let's go, I'll make something special for you at noon today~"

Sniffing the faint spicy aroma of the fruit on the plant, Xia Chen walked towards the galley in the cabin.

…………

After spending some time grinding the fruit on the secret plant into a seasoning similar to dried chili powder, Xia Chen began today's lunch practice.

Since he wants to make full use of these spicy secret seasonings, what he made at noon today is naturally based on the cuisines of the former Sichuan, Hunan and Hunan regions.

The cooking methods in Sichuan and Hunan are mainly stir-fried, fried, dry-roasted, fried, stewed, stewed, and exploded, but no matter how the cooking method changes, one thing will definitely not change, that is, it is inseparable from chili peppers.

There are also dishes like diced spicy chicken, where most of the plate is dried chili.

Watching Xia Chen desperately put chili peppers in the wok and sprinkle spicy secret seasonings, Paipa who was helping on the side was shocked.

Although he is also a cook, and even a clever cook, because of the taste of the Pardians, his research on spicy may not even be comparable to Mingyi.

Paipa swallowed his saliva unconsciously, and asked weakly, "This... Can you really eat it? ”

Xia Chen laughed twice, "Don't worry, it's not gone, just be prepared to stay in one place for a long time." ”

It is said that when traveling to the Sichuan and Shu regions, you must first register a number in the anorectal outpatient department, and there is no hospital on the ship, so he can only rely on his willpower to survive by himself.

Pipa: "......"

Xia Chen's words made him a little bit untidy.

Are you really serious about making this thing?
