Pokémon Researcher Road

Chapter 118 Bad Premonition

The breeder competition started one day after the multi-track registration, and in the end, only twelve contestants officially participated.For such a result, the sponsors did not pay too much attention.However, there are fewer people and there are fewer people. During the competition, the rich man who invested will personally bring his elves to attend, so that it is easier for the breeders to find the right direction.

Probably because there are not many entertainment activities in the off-season of tourism, so although the scale of the competition is very small, it still attracts many people, and many vendors also come after hearing the news, making the scene extremely lively for a while.

As an escort, Xuanjian naturally entered the arena with Duogui, the two of them came later, and the other players had already arrived.There is still a period of time before the competition, and the sprite from the sponsor has not yet arrived, so Duogui first checked the ingredients provided by the sponsor.After checking it, Duogui said to Xuanjian: "The organizer is very careful. Although these ingredients are not very rare, they should all be produced on the island. They are very fresh!"

Before Xuanjian could answer, there was a commotion in the arena: "Here we come! We come! It's the Yusan Family of Hezhong District!"

Xuanjian and Duogui immediately looked in the direction of the noise, and sure enough, a big fat man came to the field with an equally fat King Yanwu.

"Although it is said that King Yanwu's Pokémon is relatively fat as a big fire pig, but this appearance is too exaggerated?" Xuanjian clicked his tongue.As an elf with fighting attributes, although the normal King Yanwu doesn't have strong muscles like other fighting elves, he just looks stronger. Unlike this one, the fat on his body hangs down, and he is a little out of breath every step he takes.

"This Yanwu King weighs about [-] catties, which is about twice the normal size. It's so fat, no wonder you feel unwell!" Duogui commented that many strong regional elves would feel uncomfortable when they left their original living areas, but most of the Yusanjia were highly adaptable elves, and the environment on Naipuru Island was not too extreme. At first, Duogui thought it might be an elf who was extremely afraid of water, but he didn't expect it to be an overweight Yanwu King.

King Yanwu slowly walked into the arena, and Xuanjian and the others realized how fat it was—every time King Yanwu took a step and landed on the ground, it caused quite a shock.Xuanjian felt that if King Yanwu learned how to make earthquakes, he would be very powerful.

As King Yanwu and his owner entered the arena, the competition officially began. Since there were relatively few participants, no complicated form was adopted. It was just that each participant made a piece of food for King Yanwu. Whoever King Yanwu liked the most would win.

In the operation room, Duogui was busy while doing popular science on Xuanjian: "King Yanwu is an elf of the fire department, which means that its taste is relatively strong, and it should be more spicy, so the food must be full of spicy taste, the spicier the better! In addition, as a fighting elf, even this fat Yanwu King has very strong muscles, so the food must be full of strength, delicious and juicy." Then he began to select the ingredients to be used one by one, and began to process them.

But after processing the ingredients, Duogui said with some concern: "It's a pity that there are not many spicy ingredients here. Even if the spiciness is brought to the extreme when cooking, it is still not enough!"

"I have an idea!" Xuan Jian said.

"What?" Doug asked immediately.

"The essence of spiciness is actually that some stimulating ingredients in the food cause certain damage to the taste cells, and then the feeling is born. If the spiciness is not enough, we may think of a way from this aspect, adding some mild toxins can also achieve this effect." Some puffer fish sashimi in previous lives used puffer fish toxins to enhance the taste in this way, and finally achieved very good results.

"That makes sense!" Duogui nodded, "Yes, we can use some spines of sting jellyfish to taste! But we don't have sting jellyfish?"

"Don't worry, you are here to make other preparations first, I will help you find it!" Xuan Jian said, and then immediately left the operation room, looking for the trainer with the stinging jellyfish everywhere.Xiaodan immediately came to help when he heard about it. Fortunately, most of the trainers in the Orange League use water-type Pokémon, and stinging jellyfish are also relatively common, so it didn't take long for Xuanjian to find a trainer who was willing to help.The trainer unleashes the stinger jellyfish, which gives Genma a small ball of poisonous stinging silk.After thanking the trainer, Xuanjian immediately returned to the operating room with the materials...
After a lot of work, all the breeders completed their works within the specified time, and the waiters sent them up.Since it is a competition, the food does not need to be made in the usual way that is easy to store and carry, so everyone pays great attention to the appearance. When the waiter brings it out, the appearance alone makes everyone move their index fingers and want to taste it for themselves.

"How is it? Are you sure about multi-track?" Outside the field, Xiaodan asked Xuan Jian beside him. As a friend who just met, he didn't know the strength of multi-track.

Xuanjian nodded, and said, "Well, it's close to ten, after all, there are not many capable opponents." As friends who have traveled together for a while, and there is still some ambiguity between them, Xuanjian is full of confidence in Multitrack.

"Hey, it's a pity that there is no explanation. We laymen can't understand it at all. Can you understand it?"

"Yeah," Xuanjian nodded, and after traveling with Duogui for so long, although he is not good at cooking, he has already learned a lot about breeding knowledge, so he explained to Xiaodan: "Look, the two servings are the food made by those two non-professional breeders. The taste is too bland, and King Yanwu will not like it."

Sure enough, King Yanwu just glanced at the two servings of food and ignored them, not even intending to take a bite.

"The next ones to be eliminated should be those that are not spicy enough. King Yanwu's nose is very sensitive!"

When preparing the ingredients, the organizer obviously took into account that the examiner this time is King Yanwu, so there are a lot of spicy ingredients in the ingredients, but if the spicy taste of these ingredients is not maximized, it is obviously not up to the standard of King Yanwu.King Yanwu smelled the food with his nose, and immediately picked out five foods that were not spicy enough, and put them aside.

"The next step is the official tasting!" Xuanjian said again.

Although Xuanjian's voice was not loud, it seemed very organized and attracted many people's attention, so many people gathered around him and listened to his explanation.After all, King Yanwu, who is the referee, can't speak, and the host is not a professional breeder, so he can't give a professional explanation, which undoubtedly makes the game a lot dull.

Such a situation obviously attracted the organizer's attention, and soon, a beautiful waitress in uniform came over and said, "Sir, your commentary is very exciting, can you please come on stage and explain it to everyone?"

"This is fine, but in fact I only know a little bit. Didn't you invite a special referee?" The commentary is for the general public. It doesn't need to be too professional, as long as it can explain the reason clearly to the audience. Such a person should not be hard to find!
The beautiful waiter said with a pitiful face: "Of course I do! We invited Ms. Joy from the Elf Center as an explanation in advance, but I didn't expect that there was an emergency case and Ms. Joy couldn't come. Can you help me, sir?"

"I'm very happy to help." Xuanjian said, then greeted Xiaodan, followed the delighted waiter to the stage, and took the microphone.Although it was the first time he encountered this kind of situation, after all, Xuanjian had lived for more than [-] years, and he was not stage frightened in front of such a small number of people. After a little brewing, Xuanjian began.

"Hello, audience. I am Xuanjian, a trainee researcher from Kanto. At the invitation of the host, I will give you some explanations. I hope you like them!" Xuanjian first made a brief self-introduction, pointing out his identity as a trainee researcher, which undoubtedly convinced the following audience a lot.

When Xuanjian introduced himself, King Yanwu picked out two more dishes and put them aside. The crowd once again focused on Xuanjian, hoping that he would give an explanation.

Facing everyone's eyes, Xuanjian came to the two portions of food that had been picked out. He didn't care that they were eaten by King Yanwu. He picked up a piece of food with chopsticks and put it in his mouth for a taste, then said: "The ingredients on the left side of the food are not good enough. Fighting elves are rarely vegetarians. Even if you make vegetarian dishes, you have to make it feel like King Yanwu's meat. The food on the right is too rotten and not chewy. It is too soft for King Yanwu who is still in his prime and has fighting attributes."

The crowd suddenly realized, and the two breeders nodded in conviction, and then cursed themselves for not thinking of it.Then a piece of food was picked out by King Yanwu and brought to Xuanjian.As usual, Xuanjian tasted it. Although he was not a breeder, he was accompanied by a breeder and ate multitrack meals every day. Xuanjian made a set of judgment criteria based on multitrack cooking skills.The heat, seasoning, etc. of this food are extremely spicy, comparable to multi-track, so the only problem is the spicy taste!
Therefore, Xuanjian said into the microphone: "This food is very good in all aspects, but unfortunately it is slightly less spicy than the other two, so it was given up by King Yanwu. After all, for an elf like King Yanwu who loves spicy food, the spicier the food, the better."

"But I've brought the spicy ingredients to the extreme, haven't I?" the breeder said unconvinced.

Xuan Jian smiled and said, "First of all, one of the remaining two dishes is my friend's. Although I haven't tasted it, I can be sure that my friend's work is spicier than yours! With the ingredients provided by the organizer, the spiciness is really extreme. King Yanwu picked out the food that didn't maximize the spiciness before with his nose. You have indeed maximized the spiciness, but unfortunately it is not enough!"

"What?" The breeder couldn't believe it, but immediately reacted: "Could it be—"

"That's right!" Xuanjian continued to say what the other party wanted to say: "It is the addition of self-contained ingredients!" For a breeder, collecting all kinds of rare ingredients is also one of their necessary homework.After all, many unique ingredients with strange effects are not common, and it is impossible for the organizer to prepare all of them, and the use of their own precious ingredients in the competition is allowed by the rules unless otherwise specified.

"My friend added some stinging jellyfish toxins to his food, so he has to win! Adding a small amount of jellyfish toxins can not only enhance the spicy feeling, but also slightly stimulate the body of King Yanwu, just like drinking medicinal wine, which is very beneficial to him! However, I don’t know who the other food is, can you ask the contestant to reveal it!"

"Of course!" A beautiful green-haired girl came onto the stage and said, "I'm also Xiaoxue from Kanto, and I'm very happy to participate in this competition. But my method is not so good. I added the so-called hot pepper that I got when I was traveling in the Hezhong area, so it has such a strong spiciness."

"It's amazing, to be able to collect such precious ingredients! Sky pepper is the most suitable condiment for spiciness-loving elves. It can not only satisfy the elves' appetite, but also have many benefits for the elves' bodies!" Xuan Jian praised,

"Where, you praised me." Xiaoxue said modestly, then bowed and walked off the stage.

At this time, the host said again: "Both are very powerful breeders, even King Yanwu can't make a choice. But this time there can only be one winner in the competition. I don't know how to judge it? It really bothers me!"

The host's words immediately attracted the audience on the field, and they noticed that King Yanwu had already eaten up the two servings of food, that is to say, King Yanwu was very satisfied with the two servings of food, so the idea of ​​it making a judgment was shattered.

Under the stage, Duogui and Xiaoxue stood together. They looked at each other, but neither spoke.Although they all admire each other, their pride as breeders makes them think that the food they cook is the best, and they really can't admit that they are not as good as each other.And Xuanjian was also silent. As a multi-track partner, he was obviously not suitable to give an answer, so he handed the microphone to the host and returned to the crowd.

Seeing the silence of the two women and Xuan Jian's position, the audience started to discuss.Both of them are beautiful girls, and both attracted a large number of fans in a short period of time. Some supported multitrack, and some supported Xiaoxue. Both sides started arguing for their idols!Although I am not a professional, but the reasons for each are quite sufficient.In such a debate, everyone became more and more angry, and a conflict was about to break out!
"Sorry for the trouble." At this time, King Yanwu's master stepped onto the stage and said to the audience: "The food of the two ladies is very good, and it suits King Yanwu's taste. I would like to express my deep gratitude to you two!"Seeing this scene, the onlookers applauded one after another, even for the two breeders, but also for the master of King Yanwu.

After finishing all this, the master of King Yanwu continued: "However, there must be a result in this competition. I just noticed a detail. Ms. Duogui used plants to make the texture and taste of meat, and Ms. Xiaoxue used meat to make dishes, right?"

"Yes." The two nodded, and then Xiaoxue suddenly called out: "Oh, I made a mistake, I lost."

"Uh," the audience in the audience were stunned, not understanding why Xiaoxue would suddenly admit defeat.

"Sorry, I was only thinking about making dishes that satisfy King Yanwu, and I forgot that meat is not suitable for it." Xiaoxue said to King Yanwu's master, that King Yanwu was already very fat, and eating meat would be bad for his health, and he actually ignored this point.

King Yanwu's master smiled, nodded, and didn't speak any more...

The next thing was to present the awards, which naturally had nothing to do with Xuanjian, so Xuanjian and Xiao Dan, who was also not interested in this, went to the back door to wait for the multitrack.Soon, the contestants left the arena through the back door.Xuanjian also saw Duogui, but there was one more person beside her - Xiaoxue, Duogui's strongest opponent in this competition.

Duogui and Xiaoxue didn't have any trouble because of this game, but they felt like they met each other later.When Xuanjian saw her again, she was walking out of the arena arm in arm with Xiaoxue.

"This is my companion Xuanjian! You should have met him just now. That is Mr. Xiaodan, the owner of the Naipur Gym." Duogui introduced.

Xiaoxue nodded, and said hello to Xuanjian, Xuanjian and Xiaodan also responded politely.

At this time, Duogui said to everyone: "Actually, I didn't notice this! I didn't think so much when I made vegetarian meat. Wouldn't it be better to gain weight or something, do more exercise and fight? Compared to not being able to eat meat, being a little tired is nothing, right?"

"That means you are very talented! This kind of intuition talent is so enviable!" Xiaoxue said.

"Really?" Duogui smiled embarrassedly...
Hearing Duogui's words, Xuanjian frowned and said, "Excuse me." Then he bid farewell to everyone and went back to the storage room where the ingredients were stored.

As a fake child with an adult soul, Xuanjian is far more mature than his appearance. Although he expects Duogui to win, he will not deceive himself that Duogui must be better than the other party.According to Duolan, there was a lot of surprise in her victory. In fact, she did it deliberately when she chose the materials.I have been with Duogui all the time, so I naturally ruled out the possibility of someone using superpowers to influence her, but many things in this world can be done without superpowers, such as: adjusting the order of ingredients to give psychological hints to those who use them.

It's a pity that when he came to the storage room where the ingredients were stored, Xuanjian found that the ingredients had been transported away, so there was no way to find out.

"I hope that the multi-track really chose to make a vegetarian meal because of a flash of inspiration! Maybe I'm overthinking, but I always feel that something is wrong!"

　Did you find anything wrong?Welcome to leave a message!Well, to be honest, I feel like I didn’t write the suspenseful feeling I wanted~
