My Pokémon Story of Seasons

Chapter 22 Introduction to Gardening

"Then I'll take my leave! Patrolman Hitomi, mission accomplished!"

See you next time!

After saying goodbye to Renmei, the two Celebi no longer had to hide and sat on the table to eat heartily.

"La beep~"

The pink shrine maiden gracefully used her telekinesis to lift a piece of bread covered in jam, taking small bites as her eyes squinted into crescent moons with happiness.

The green shrub buried its face directly in the fresh milk, and when it looked up, its face was covered in milk, which the foam squirrel disgustingly wiped clean with its tail.

"Eat slowly, no rush." ​​Tong Hua smiled as she watched the two adorable little ones finish their breakfast in no time.

She even thoughtfully collected all the bowls and plates and put them in the sink.

"Trembling!" When it comes to washing dishes, that's something the foam squirrel excels at.

After all, this is one of the few pleasures for a clean-loving hamster, and it gets to spend time alone with Tong Hua every time, which is a win-win situation.

After washing the dishes, Tong Hua and Foam Chipmunk went to the fields to water the plants with Grass Seed Turtle Sweet Bamboo.

The potatoes are growing very well, with thick stems and leaves, and the yield looks promising.

Although the area where cabbage is grown is not large, it is still very pleasing to the eye, with thick and plump leaves that gleam with a healthy emerald green color in the morning light.

"Grass Turtle, water this area a little more."

Tong Hua gently patted the shell of the grass turtle, and the little guy immediately understood. He flicked the vine whip and accurately sprinkled a bucket of water into the field.

"Ah, ah, ah~"

Sweet bamboo hops and skips between the ridges of the field, occasionally touching the seedlings gently with the leaves on its head, as if cheering them on.

Tong Hua witnessed firsthand that after the sweet bamboo touched the crops, they seemed to be suddenly accelerated, visibly growing taller.

"not bad."

The harvest day a few days from now is something to look forward to.

……

After completing his daily tasks, Tong Hua picked up his bamboo basket and prepared to go to the Wind-Swept Forest to collect logs again.

Today, no matter what, I'm going to cut down 20 logs in one go! Tong Hua made up her mind.

Sweet Bamboo and Milkcandy were still guarding the house, while Grass Turtle and Foam Chipmunk were vying to take the seat on Tong Hua's back.

Unfortunately, the spot that originally belonged to them has now been taken by two Celebi.

"Sorry, little grass turtle, you can sit in the bamboo basket."

In the end, the foam squirrels formed the head, the two Celebi each occupied one of the shoulders, and the poor little tortoise had to be placed in a bamboo basket and carried on its back...

Along the way, they passed the pond where the big-tailed raccoon family lived, and the raccoons even greeted Tonghua warmly.

"Lili!"

Two hotpot meals were enough to completely win over these honest and simple-minded big-toothed raccoons to Tong Hua.

In just two days, they have transformed their nest into a respectable structure, with various polished stones placed around the pond, which appear to be tools they use to sharpen their teeth.

"It's polished quite nicely. Wait, could that be me engraved on that piece?"

These little guys have a bit of an artistic talent; they can carve exquisite patterns on wood and stone simply by biting with their teeth.

Tong Hua walked over and saw that several wooden planks and stones placed by the pond were carved with simple sketches of him and the Pokémon in the ranch.

"Beep beep!" The big-tailed raccoon also came over and proudly patted the rock with its paw.

"I didn't realize you guys had such talent."

Tong Hua couldn't help but give Big Tail Civet a thumbs up. Sure enough, I told you Big Tail Civet was more than just a means of transportation!

After saying goodbye to the Tanuki family, Tong Hua, covered in Pokémon, continued along yesterday's route.

Before long, we arrived at the fast-growing eucalyptus forest.

"Huh? That's strange?"

Tong Hua searched the fast-growing forest for a long time, but couldn't find the stump of the tree he had cut down yesterday.

"La-bi." Just then, the green Celebi on his shoulder reacted and called out to Tong Hua.

"Huh? Could it be that the shrine made that tree grow back?"

Seeing the rabbi nod, Tong Hua suddenly understood.

The rabbi leaped forward and embraced a eucalyptus tree that was two or three meters tall.

Tong Hua recognized it too; it was the same tree he had cut down yesterday.

But it seems slightly different.

"So that's how it is..." Tong Hua gently stroked the tree bark. "It's not that time has reversed, but that it's grown at an accelerated pace."

"La beep".

The growth cycle of a fast-growing eucalyptus tree is about 2 to 3 years. This means that under the acceleration of the power of the shrub, this fast-growing eucalyptus tree grew from a stump back into a large tree in just one night.

"What incredible power!" This was the first time Tong Hua had truly experienced the power of a Mythical Pokémon. The ability to manipulate time was quite astonishing in reality.

"Then, can this ability be used to accelerate crop growth?" Tong Hua immediately thought of the crops grown on his ranch and asked with shining eyes.

"La beep..."

The shrub shook his head, as if this power could only affect the trees in the wind-swept forest.

"That's true, it's not that simple." Tong Hua calmed down and gave up her unrealistic idea.

However, considering the game's storyline and the title of Silavi Forest Guardian, such restrictions are reasonable.

"Even so, it's already quite remarkable!" Tong Hua smiled and patted Shirabi's little head.

"Rabi~" Celebi nodded happily, clearly pleased that his abilities were being recognized.

"So, does that mean this fast-growing forest can be used indefinitely?"

The resource points are respawning; it feels more and more like a game.

Okay! Then I won't stand on ceremony!

Tong Hua gripped the axe tightly, full of energy.

He selected a sturdy, fast-growing eucalyptus tree, swung his axe, and chopped it down in a few strokes.

"Grasshopper turtle, foam squirrel, please help clear away these branches!"

"Game!" The grass turtle poked its head out of the bamboo basket, its vine whip deftly whipping up the scattered branches and neatly piling them into the basket.

"Tsk tsk!" The foam squirrel quickly swept its tail across the tree trunk, cleaning away the remaining bark and debris with swift and meticulous movements.

The two Celebi weren't idle either; the pink Celebi used its psychic powers to lift the log and gently place it aside.

The green shrub flew to the tree stump, gently placed its hands on the tree rings, and a faint green light flowed from its palms.

Tong Hua watched as tender green buds sprouted from the once bare tree stump at a visible speed, quickly growing branches and leaves, and within minutes they had grown into a small tree.

"It's amazing..." Tong Hua couldn't help but exclaim.

With the help of the shrubs, Tong Hua was even more motivated and planned to cut down 20 trees and move them all back at once.

So Tong Hua selected a eucalyptus tree of suitable height and began chopping it down with great effort.

"Thump! Thump! Thump! Thump!"

The axe struck the tree trunk with a rhythmic sound, sending wood chips flying everywhere.

Just after the second tree fell, the information panel that Tong Hua was extremely familiar with appeared at the same moment.

[Tree collection successful three times!]

[Unlock Achievement: Beginner Gardener]

"This works? Unlocking a class isn't just about finding an apprentice?"

What appeared before Tong Hua's eyes was an information panel similar to the one used when unlocking the Carpenter, except that the job title displayed on it had changed from Carpenter to Gardener.

"Speaking of which, this is actually a gathering profession!" Tong Hua was greatly shocked. He originally thought that his cheat ability only included six processing professions.

I never expected there to be a gathering profession!

Gardener: Level 6

Status: None

Experience points: 520/1940

[Professional Skills: Environmental Detection, Sounds of Trees]

Like processing professions, gathering professions also have an experience point and level system, with the maximum level still being 100.

In addition, she also has professional skills. Currently, Tong Hua has two passive skills: one that can increase the products collected, and the other that can automatically find collection points.

Just as Tong Hua unlocked the gardener profession, the effects of the two passive skills were already taking effect on him.

Part of the forest map appeared directly in Tong Hua's mind, clearly marking out which trees could be collected in which places.

Tong Hua was overwhelmed by the large amount of information he was receiving, so he plopped down and casually tossed the axe he was holding onto the ground.

"Game?" "Lili?" "Labi?"

When the Pokémon saw Tong Hua suddenly sitting on the ground, they all ran over to check on him. Tong Hua waved his hand and said...

"I'm fine, I'll just rest for a bit."

Having lost her professional equipment, Tong Hua's profession instantly switched, and her information panel automatically hid.

This is the conclusion Tong Hua reached after unlocking the Carpenter skill yesterday: one will only possess that profession and skill when equipped with the corresponding profession's tools.

"That is to say, in addition to gardeners, there should also be two gathering professions: miners and fishermen. Adding these to the six production professions, there are a total of nine professions."

But I tried fishing yesterday, so why didn't I unlock the Fisherman profession?

Oh right, I didn't catch a single fish yesterday...

After clarifying her thoughts, Tong Hua smiled slightly. She was happy about the new profession and new power she had gained.

More importantly, through this achievement, Tong Hua discovered a new way to unlock career opportunities.
