It's nearly ten o'clock back in the wind.

In fact, it won't take much time to get back to Aole City, but Xia Chen decided to stay here for one night in line with the principle of "coming here".

I called and told Gu Leton, who was waiting at home, about going back tomorrow, but the guy said something like "Vulcan Moth will be sad if I haven't eaten your food for so long".

Xia Chen laughed for a while.

For the Vulcan Moth, even if he doesn't eat all night, it's just a matter of closing his eyes and opening his eyes, and he can't say much about which guy is gluttonous.

Anyway, after Xia Chen should "go back the next day to cook at least half of the dishes with chili peppers", Lerton hung up the phone with satisfaction.

The tourism industry in Fenglai City is very developed, and it is not difficult to find a place to stay at night.

Xia Chen didn't choose much, and with Lothom's navigation, he finally settled in an Alola-style place.

The shopkeeper is a local Alola mother-in-law with a flock of flowers, dancing birds and sweet bamboos, who is kind and loves to tell half-lukewarm jokes.

Of course, the reason for the goodwill may be that Xia Chen rented all her remaining vacant rooms at once, and did not bargain at all.

Xia Chen originally wanted to ask his mother-in-law about the overlord elf of the Wind Forest Volcano, but the old man went to bed early, and before Xia Chen could talk about the topic, his mother-in-law yawned.

She apologized and said that she would go back to her room to sleep first, and then let a fire spotted meow come over to pass the time with Xia Chen.

Before leaving, she said, "Don't look at this guy like this, he's the most popular little guy in our place." ”

"Such" naturally refers to the bad personality that most cat elves have in common with each other - it runs away when you get close, and it takes the initiative to get close to you when you ignore it.

This fire-spotted meow is a green tea meow that knows how to do this.

And as a senior cat master, how could Xia Chen fall in love with it, just holding the fairy cloth in the courtyard for a while and snubbing it, the little guy who was unwilling to be lonely scolded and scolded, and approached a little bit with the cat's paws.

There is no surprise in the final ending - the cute-looking kitten is lying in Xia Chen's arms and enjoying the excellent technique of jaw scratching and massage, making a comfortable sound of "purring".

"It's so cute, how did you end up evolving like that?"

Xia Chen looked down at the fire-spotted meow that showed his belly like a burning cloud towards him, and thought of his brother Guihu who had finally evolved into his form, and complained so quietly.

"Meowby?"

Huoban Meow was immersed in Xia Chen's exquisite cat playing skills, and he didn't hear Xia Chen's words clearly for a while.

"It's nothing, I praise you for being cute."

Xia Chen smiled and suddenly asked, "By the way, Fire Spotted Meow, do you know who the overlord spirit on this volcano is?" ”

Although this fire-spotted meow looks young, it is an elf who lives at the foot of the mountain, and may know something about the legendary overlord elf.

…………

"By the way, you can say it directly, I understand the language of the elves."

"Meowby—"

Fire Meow's face froze, he knows elven language, so isn't what I just scolded him all listened to?

"It's okay, I'm used to it."

Xia Chen seemed to understand Huo Banmeow's thoughts, and sighed with a sigh: "It's okay to be scolded just because you didn't understand the language." ”

This made Spotted Meow even more ashamed, and after thinking about it, it decided to tell Xia Chen the information it knew as an apology.

(The overlord elf here is a mysterious fellow, because it's so fast that almost no one has ever seen its appearance, it's a bad elf anyway!) ）”

Firemeth said.

"Bad elves? What bad things did he do? ”

Xia Chen was a little puzzled.

Spotted Meow said angrily: "Meow Bi - (Agatha's Granny Agatha's tree orchard was burned down by it, it was still late at night, if it wasn't for Granny Agatha's armored warrior to find out in time, the consequences would be unimaginable, not only Agatha's Granny, but also several other places, we obviously didn't provoke it!) ）”

Burned orchards. Xia Chen had a little impression of this, and he had seen it before going up the mountain.

I thought it was a wildfire, but I didn't expect it to be an elf arsonist?

Xia Chen frowned slightly, always feeling that something was wrong.

Although there are many bad guys among the wild elves, and it can even be said that a considerable number of wild elves do not have a good impression of humans, he has a gut feeling that the overlord elves on the volcano are by no means that kind of guys.

If you have to say the reason, it's its little brothers.

The slow, gentle old dragon, and the other elves who tried their best to cover for it, but didn't unleash their malice on themselves.

Xia Chen always felt that the leader of these elves would not be an elf who was hostile to humans for no reason.

"Could it be some misunderstanding?"

Xia Chen asked.

Firespotted Meow shook her head, "Meowby! (How is it possible that so many people and elves saw it flee from the firelight with their own eyes!) Definitely that guy! ）”

Xia Chen shrugged noncommittally, after all, seeing is not believing, just a fire meow, or the words of the city residents, which can't make him completely believe it.

He once watched a movie called "Miracle in the Green Mile", the story is very simple, a tall, vicious-looking black man is mistaken for a murderer who killed two little girls and goes to prison.

But in reality, beneath his demonic appearance lies the most benign angelic heart.

The truth is that he wants to save the two little girls, but no one believes it, people only believe what they want to believe.

Maybe the Overlord Elf was in the same situation?

Xia Chen thought thoughtfully.

…………

After chatting with Fire Meow and playing with it for a while, Xia Chen went back to the house and fell asleep.

There are no entertainment facilities in the B&B, and even the TV looks like it was more than ten years ago, but it is clean and tidy, and it feels like home.

Before going to bed, he suddenly had the idea that "maybe it would be good to climb the mountain and watch the sunrise tomorrow."

Asked Lothom to set the wake-up alarm to five o'clock, and Xia Chen soon fell asleep.

Nothing was said all night.

In the early morning of the next day, it is more appropriate to say that in the early hours of the morning, when the sky was still bright, Xia Chen got up.

Because he has the idea of getting up to watch the sunrise before going to bed, he will definitely wake up naturally when the time comes, and Xia Chen is a person with this magical ability.

"Lothom, what time is it?"

He asked.

Lothom didn't respond, and seemed to be still sleeping.

Despite being an electronic ghost, Lothom magically needs sleep.

Xia Chen had to fumble with his mobile phone, the screen lit up, and the background was a group photo of the Donghuang Conference winning the championship, and the time was less than five o'clock.

Then it was Lothom's eyes that opened, obviously, because Xia Chen turned on his phone, this guy was forced to turn on.

"Sorry Lotto! I forgot to wake you up, Lotto! ”

Lothom thought that because he had slept with him, he apologized vigorously.

Xia Chen explained while getting up and washing: "No, I got up first, you go and tell the other elves to get up." ”

"Okay Lotto!"

Lothom hurriedly complied, then flew out of the door to call out to the other elves.

At five o'clock, in a big city like Shangjing Nandu in Donghuang, it was already a little hard to force the social animals to start preparing for work.

But this is laid-back Alola, when everything is lonely.

I can't buy breakfast, and Xia Chen is not embarrassed to cook here - it will not be good if she wakes up her mother-in-law.

After stuffing a note explaining the situation into the cat's nest of Firespotted Meow, Xia Chen flew towards the top of the volcano on Doron Barruto.

This guy is a lot faster than Menas, but the ride experience is really incomparable, and fortunately, it is not intolerable.

Swaying, Xia Chen reached the mouth of the volcanic cave at the top of the mountain.

It has not erupted for hundreds of years, and it has become a lake with a beautiful ecological environment, a bit like the Tianchi of Changbai Mountain in Donghuang, but it is not so beautiful and far less extensive than there.

Standing on the top of the mountain and looking into the distance, you can see the pale gray line between the sea and the sky.

What a great place to watch the sunrise.

Xia Chen admired in his heart, and took out the multi-functional stove that had accompanied him on his journey for several years.

Speaking of which, the quality of this thing is so good, if it is maintained, maybe it will live longer than its inventor, Vladali?

Well. The latter's life is forever fixed in his forties, and presumably the stove still has a chance.

Missed you, prison. Vladali.

…………

Tasting the freshly baked hell jokes, Xia Chen took the elves to take some fresh ingredients on the spot for breakfast.

Mushrooms, fish from lakes, tree fruits, wild vegetables.

In this little human activity, there are treasures everywhere.

In the process of searching, it is inevitable to encounter the wild elves that inhabit this place, they can sense the powerful aura of Xia Chen's elves, or look at them curiously or worriedly.

From time to time, a few elves exchanged ears for a moment, and then ran towards some hidden place in the southwest corner of the mountaintop.

There is no bad guy in Xia Chen's elves who bully the weak and take pleasure, even if it is the naughty Doron Baruto who flirts with the wild elves, there will be a degree.

And the immortals don't take the initiative to attack, and these wild elves won't ask for trouble, so the scene is quite harmonious and controllable for a while.

The pre-dawn dawn was still silent, and in a moment the smoke rose from the top of the mountain, and almost simultaneously appeared the golden dawn on the sea level.

"Sure enough, waking up early to watch the sunrise was the right choice."

Xia Chen took a bowl of steaming delicious mushroom soup and handed it to Shanaiduo, who was a little disturbed by the cold.

The summit is relatively high, and it's still early in the morning, and even though it's a tropical Alola region, it's a bit cold.

Tianxi on the side looked envious, and coquettishly asked Xia Chen to help her serve a bowl too.

As a trainer who is evenly wet with rain and dew, Xia Chen naturally responds.

The breakfast is full of game, the mushroom soup warms the stomach, and the rest is used to make the soup base for grilled fish, and a layer of wild vegetables is spread underneath.

With a huge red sun slowly rising in the sky, all the elves were very happy to eat this breakfast.

Although there are a lot of white poles for breakfast, everyone does not lie down after eating, and the most basic thing for a good chef is food safety.

After eating, Xia Chen picked some fresh mushrooms and prepared to bring them back to taste the old Leton and the Vulcan Moth, who had not come.

After all this, the sun was completely hanging in the sky, and it was almost eight o'clock in the morning.

So, the next thing to solve is another thing.

Xia Chen looked at a hidden cave in the southwest corner of the mountaintop, the habitat of the overlord elf should be there, right?

Naturally, he didn't come here just to watch the sunrise, and he didn't forget the unfinished business of last night - looking for the overlord elves.

And based on the morning's observations, as well as the detection of the power of the waveguide, he was able to determine that the Overlord Elf was there.

…………

It is said to be a cave, but from the rather regular entrance of the cave, it looks like a "stone house" made by elves.

It's just hidden in the depths of the bushes, extremely inconspicuous, if it weren't for the detection of the power of the waveguide, Xia Chen would definitely not be able to find here.

The power of the wave guide sensed that there was an elf with an unknown breath inhabiting the stone house, which meant that its strength was definitely far above Xia Chen.

Don't underestimate this line, now he also has the strength equivalent to a gym-level elf, that is to say, that mysterious overlord elf is at least the king level, and there is a high probability that it is more than that.

This made Xia Chen feel that it was wronged-

Most of the powerful wild elves are not too good-tempered, if they are really bad, they don't have to flee after the arson is discovered, and just continue to make trouble, anyway, a small wind city is basically impossible to stop it from coming.

So what is the reason why it is reluctant to explain, or even show up?

Xia Chen had some vague guesses in his heart, but he needed to see the elf to be sure.

When there were still dozens of meters away from the stone house, Xia Chen stopped and politely shouted over there: "Hello, I want to meet you, is it okay?" ”

If it is a human interaction, you can just walk over and knock on the door, but most wild elves need enough distance to keep their sense of security, so Xia Chen greeted them here.

Two seconds passed, and there was no response.

The spirit breath was still inside, indicating that it had not left.

Xia Chen took another step closer and said, "I heard some rumors about you at the bottom of the mountain, do you want to know what it is?" ”

Still no answer.

Xia Chen didn't care if it was listening or not, and asked himself: "They say that you are the murderer of those arsonists, and that you are a bad bad elf, but I don't think so." ”

"You've been wronged, haven't you?"

The breath perceived by the power of the waveguide finally fluctuated, and it was a complex emotional fluctuation.

Got it right for yourself?

Xia Chen raised his eyebrows slightly, continued to walk forward slowly, and said sincerely: "I can help you clarify this misunderstanding, if you don't object, I'll continue to move forward?" ”

This time the silence represents acquiescence.

Xia Chen no longer hesitated, directly brushed aside the dense and scattered bushes, and stepped into the stone house.

"I'm coming in."

This sentence is the final declaration.

And when Xia Chen saw the furry elf in the stone house with a somewhat vigilant face, he was a little distracted in surprise-

It was an elf he hadn't expected beforehand, Geraola.

No. To be exact, it's a heterochromatic Gera Ora!
