Elf: No, it's because he was made the gym leader!

He hadn't eaten instant noodles since he transmigrated. Sure enough, the first thing people do when they have money is forget their roots.

Before leaving, Dr. Kongmu secretly arranged to meet Lu Yuan.

"Professor Kuroki, you're a good person, but you should find someone else to do the research. I really can't leave because I have a gym to attend to."

Lu Yuan immediately gave Dr. Kongmu a friendly welcome, leaving him completely bewildered.

"Well, that's not what I wanted to talk about. Actually, I have something I'd like to ask you to do."

"You've entrusted me with something?"

Lu Yuan murmured.

"Are you going to send me an egg, haha..."

Before he could finish speaking, Dr. Kongmu's face instantly showed surprise, his mouth wide open, and he stammered, "You... how did you know!"

Lu Yuan: ......

That's really true. I was just saying it offhand.

Having calmed down slightly, Dr. Elm's expression turned serious, and he said earnestly:

"The egg I want to entrust to you is a little different from the other eggs."

Upon hearing this, Lu Yuan couldn't help but laugh out loud, jokingly remarking without a care in the world:

"What else could an egg be different about? Is it going to jump up and hit me?"

"...That's actually quite possible."

Dr. Kumo looked exhausted; he had said everything he wanted to say, so what could I say?

Did you peek at my script?

Lu Yuan: ......

You think an egg can hit someone? Are you sure you're not talking nonsense?

"It's certainly unbelievable, but it can actually move. The little guy hasn't hatched yet, and I'd like to commission a trainer to help me..."

Lu Yuan suddenly interrupted, "Is Ah Jin not good enough?"

After all, Professor Oak specifically named him as the "incubator," so he should be quite skilled at incubation, right?

“Uh…Ah Jin…he…”

Seeing Dr. Kongmu's hesitant expression, Lu Yuan seemed to understand, "Excuse me, please continue."

"So I'd like to ask you to see when you have time to go to the incubator and see the eggs. She's taking care of them."

Lu Yuan agreed and selected a time with the doctor.

After all, although there are many Pokémon in the gym, there are only a few different types.

If there's a free elf to be had, why not take it?

Besides, he'd never even seen a moving egg before.

Chansey would be very happy to see this.

Watching Lu Yuan leave, Dr. Kongmu murmured, "Truly worthy of being Oak's grandson, he said everything I wanted to say."

After saying that, he turned and walked into the research institute.

Only Xiao Mao, who was eavesdropping in the corner, was left with a look of shock in his eyes.

Grandpa's grandson?!

He just wanted to confirm whether Dr. Kongmu was planning to poach Lu Yuan while he was away, but he didn't expect to hear this.

Shouldn't Grandpa's only grandsons be me and Qinglu? When did another one appear? Could it be...?

Xiao Mao's mind flashed back to the unusually kind attitude his grandfather had shown towards Lu Yuan earlier that day...

No, I have to tell Qinglv!

Chapter 54 Green Suspicion

"Finally home!"

Lu Yuan stood at his own door, gazing at the door that was so familiar to him, his heart filled with a myriad of emotions.

I haven't been home for a few days, so I don't know how the backyard is doing.

It's only been three days, it shouldn't cause me too much trouble, right?

He walked toward the backyard while praying.

Arriving at the back gate, Lu Yuan hesitated for a moment, then slowly reached out and gently pushed the door open...

The scene before him utterly shocked him; it was a scene of utter devastation!

The meticulously manicured lawn looked as if it had been violated, riddled with holes and large boulders lying haphazardly across it, turning the once smooth grass into a patchwork of uneven, unsightly stones.

The trees in the orchard were not spared either; some were cut in half, some lay on the ground, and some were even uprooted.

Even the once straight and upright streetlights have now collapsed, their glass lampshades shattered on the ground.

Lu Yuan felt as if he had not returned home, but was in some smoke-filled battlefield.

Both the Salt Stone Giant and the Night Demon noticed Lu Yuan's sudden return home, and their movements paused slightly.

They both raised their heads at the same time, their faces showing an extremely innocent expression. After their eyes met, they quickly pointed at each other.

Seeing that neither of them hesitated to shift the blame to the other, the Salt Stone Giant and the Night Demon glared at each other angrily, then resumed their brawl without any restraint.

Lu Yuan finally lost his temper, his veins bulging as he roared.

"You've gone too far!"

If you don't discipline them for three days, they'll be climbing on the roof and tearing off the tiles!

The saying goes, "Spare the rod and spoil the child."

"Chocolate Egg, it's all yours now."

He decided to stop indulging her and summoned Chansey from her Poké Ball.

"lucky~"

The jellyfish obediently responded.

Subsequently.

"Snapped!"

"Snapped!"

"Snapped!"

Three crisp, loud slaps rang out in succession.

The saying goes, "To catch a thief, first catch his king," and "When a clever person makes a mistake, punish his parents."

The Salt Stone Giant, the Night Demon, and the Scorpion King each covered their faces.

Dusknoir looked at Chansey in disbelief. How could a Normal-type move hit a Ghost-type? That's illegal!

The Scorpion King's eyes were filled with fear; although it hadn't done anything, it had still been slapped.

And even though the face was hit, why does the butt feel so hot?

"lucky~"

I want to see this restored to normal within three hours.

Chansey's tone was gentle and delicate.

The three elves felt a chill run down their spines upon hearing this.

Each of them took command of their own subordinates...

"Lucky Eggs really knows how to handle things," Lu Yuan thought with a relieved smile as he looked at everyone in their orderly state.

He went to the artificial lake in the backyard and released the Roaring Tyrant that he had subdued two days ago.

Along with it, there was also the milt in its mouth.

It's incredible that two Pokémon can fit into the same Poké Ball.

"Overlord—"

Since being subdued by Lu Yuan, Chihouba has become much more obedient.

It's great that I don't have to hunt anymore.

But Mi Lilong was still unconvinced. In its eyes, Lu Yuan had subdued them using underhanded means and could not gain its approval at all.

Just you wait, I'll get my revenge sooner or later.

As he spoke, Mi Lilong and Chi Houba sank to the bottom of the water.

Lu Yuan didn't take Mi Lilong's provocation to heart; he figured he could just have Jili Dan train him a bit more in the future.
