Elf: Seriously? You only get a cheat code when you're about to die?

Chapter 108: Wave Guide Practice

The tree-pillow koala came home very late tonight. It was drunk and didn't even eat. It went straight back to its little house to sleep.

After dinner, the other Pokémon gradually went back, while Ange, along with Diancie, Gardevoir, Gallade, and Meowth, collected and washed all the dishes.

After Gardevoir and the others returned home, Ange went to the cooking training room with Snorlax and Ember Spirit for training. It had been a long time since Ange had trained, and he was full of enthusiasm.

Tianxi continued to act as the strict coach, rigorously supervising and guiding Ange and his team in their special training.

As more recipes were unlocked, Angie and his team's training content also increased accordingly.

Bupba and Metagross didn't need any training. They first explored the training room out of curiosity, and then Metagross started playing with Bupba.

Anjie and the others had to train for 10 hours, which was too long, and Bubo gradually got bored. So Anjie gave it his phone and let it go out to play with Metagross.

There is no cell phone signal in the training room.

Metagross was also eager to learn about the human world through the internet and gain some knowledge, so it was very happy to go out with Bup.

Robert Downey Jr. has a computer that can automatically connect to the internet, and the computer is connected to Metagross's brain. In other words, as long as Metagross uses his brain, the knowledge on the internet will automatically enter his brain and be quickly filtered by him. He can quickly distinguish which is useful, which is useless, which is true, and which is false.

This is why the two doctors said that Metagross was the best choice to help modify Robert 1.

Anjie and his group finished their culinary training soon, but Anjie did not leave the training room immediately. He wanted to use the training room to practice his aura power for a while longer.

"Snorlax, transform into a lizard. Do you two want to train with me in Aura?" Ange asked his two apprentices.

Although he didn't know if the two Pokémon could learn it, it wouldn't hurt to give it a try.

Everything has a waveguide; if he can learn it, then Snorlax and Lizard might be able to as well.

"Gang~ Gang~"

Without any hesitation, Munchlax immediately expressed its desire to study with Angel.

"Baa~ Baa~" I'll imitate it too, and I'll become amazing!

Seeing that even Snorlax had learned it, the Lizard naturally wanted to learn it too. It would never be inferior to anyone in its life!

Just as Anjie took out the "Cultivation Manual" to teach his two disciples, he suddenly thought of that little fellow Bubo. "Why don't I call Bubo over to learn with us too!"

This is a good opportunity to temper the little guy's overly lively personality.

"Gang~"

"Chirp~"

Snorlax and Lizard both agreed.

"Chirp~~" I'll go call it!

As soon as he finished speaking, the lizard dashed outside and returned shortly after, carrying Bubo by the neck.

Metagross returned with Bupba.

Bubo was placed in front of Anjie by the transformed lizard, looking completely bewildered.

"Bu~" What are you going to do?

Bubo had a bad feeling.

Anjie smiled and said to it, "Bubo, come on, let's study together."

"No, I want to play on my phone."

Bu Bo shook his head and subconsciously stepped back, but An Jie grabbed him and held him down.

Then Angel led the three Pokémon into a circle and explained the training method of Aura to them.

The little Snorlax listened intently, and the lemur looked serious as well. When they encountered something they didn't understand, they would take the initiative to ask Angel for help.

In fact, An Jie was also a novice, and he only had a superficial understanding of many things. So he and his two disciples basically discussed and practiced together. When they encountered something they didn't understand, An Jie would verify it with his two disciples.

Anjie would also channel the wave-guiding power within her body, allowing her two disciples to personally experience this special power that exists within all living beings.

Only Bubo was completely bewildered.

Seeing how seriously Anjie and the others were cultivating, Tianxi didn't slack off either.

It approached Metagross and said, "Metagross, can you do me a favor?"

"Meta~~" Metagross nodded.

Tianxi: "Let's go outside and talk."

Metagross was puzzled, but it still went out with Diancie.

Once in the living room, Diancie said to Metagross, "I'd like to ask you to help me develop a training plan for the Light Cod."

As a fellow Psychic-type Pokémon, Metagross should be able to offer some advice on training Lightfoot.

"Meta~~"

Metagross, of course, agreed without hesitation.

So the two Pokémon snuggled up on the living room sofa and started whispering to each other.

Metagross didn't actually have any experience in guiding others in their training, but that didn't matter. It had Robert 2, which searched online and instantly gathered a large amount of training methods for Psychic and Water-type Pokémon, as well as information on the breeding of Lightweight Pokémon, into its mind. It was then summarized, filtered, and integrated by its brain, which was comparable to a supercomputer.

Now, it not only has a clue about the Light Cod's training plan, but it also has an idea for its own training plan.

Metagross's abilities were too great. Not only was it powerful, but it also had excellent information acquisition, learning, and calculation abilities, so much so that Diancie's gaze toward it grew brighter and brighter.

Soon, Tianxi had a complete and detailed training plan in her hands.

"Metamorphoses, can I still come to you for advice if I need anything in the future?" Diancie asked intently.

"Meta~" Of course.

The Metagross nodded happily.

An hour passed in the blink of an eye, and Anjay came out of the house with three Pokémon, Snorlax and Lizard looking disappointed.

Ten hours passed in the training room, and they did not sense any waveguide power emerging within their bodies.

As for Bubo, it wasn't disappointed at all. If it hadn't mastered the skill, so be it. It walked along, yawning.

"Bu~Bu~" Can I go to sleep now?

Bu Bo tugged at An Jie's trouser leg and asked.

"Okay, okay! Go on." Anjie shook her head helplessly.

"Cloth~~"

Bubo responded, rubbed his eyes, and went back to his room in a daze.

Anjie then said to Snorlax and Ember Spirit, "You two should go back to sleep too. It's okay if you didn't succeed in your training. Let's keep trying tomorrow!"

"Gang~~"

Upon hearing this, the little Snorlax immediately perked up. Master was right!

"Chirp~~"

The lizard nodded vigorously. That's right, it's so powerful, there's no way it couldn't have cultivated it.

Afterwards, Ange, Snorlax, Ember Spirit, Diancie, and Metagross all went back to their rooms to sleep.

Before going to bed, Anjie planned to claim the rewards for her daily tasks, as usual.

However, when he opened the system's taskbar, he was surprised to find that an extra daily task had appeared.

【Daily Task 1】Train in the Culinary Training Room for 1 hour - Completed, reward to be claimed.

[Daily Task 2] Invite 10 Pokémon - Completed, reward to be claimed.

[Daily Task 3] Perform one waveguide training session - Completed, reward to be claimed.

This is certainly a good thing for An Jie. Anyway, he has to practice his aura every day. Although the rewards for daily tasks are average, there is still a certain probability of getting a gold item. A person can't be without some ambition!

Harboring ambitions, An Jie collected all the daily task rewards one by one.

Congratulations, you have received a reward: 1 Poké Ball.

Anjie took it out and saw that it was a regular red and white ball, which was not very useful. He hadn't even used up all the Poké Balls he received from the professor!

Congratulations, owner, you have received a reward: 1 large mushroom.

Anjie took out the large mushrooms. They weren't particularly big, not enough for one dish, but their quality was definitely much better than ordinary mushrooms.

He put the large mushroom away and continued to collect the last reward.

Congratulations, owner, you have received a reward: 1 bag of water hyacinth seeds.

Anjie's eyes lit up when she saw the final reward.

Waterside herbs—aren't they the main ingredients needed for the sophisticated recipe "Fish Food"?

I was having a headache about this before, because the waterside herb market didn't sell it, and the system store didn't offer seeds of this special plant either.

I never expected that a pillow would be delivered just when I was sleepy.

Anjie took out the seeds of the waterside herb, and found a large bag full, more than enough for his needs.

Water hyacinth is a plant unique to the Pokémon world. It only grows near clear water and is very difficult to cultivate artificially, so it usually only appears in small quantities in the market as a seasoning.

If it weren't for the recipe provided by the system, Anjie wouldn't have known that this stuff could be used to make fish food.

Lake Nibel has excellent water quality, so it should be possible to successfully cultivate it!

After carefully storing the seeds, Anjie crawled into bed and soon fell asleep.

The next day, Anjai got up early and woke up Snorlax, Lizard and Buppu to go for a run.

Munchlax, who usually has trouble getting up, is unusually enthusiastic today because its master is going to run with it after a long time, so it is really looking forward to it.

After getting up, it followed closely behind Anjie like a little shadow. When Tianxi and the lizard teased it, it just kept laughing. As long as it could be with its master, it was in a good mood, and when it was in a good mood, it didn't care about other people teasing it.

Today, the one who had trouble getting up was Bubo.

Even after going downstairs, Bubo was still dazed.

The air on the Nibel Plateau was especially fresh in the early morning. Ange ran towards the rising sun, followed by Snorlax, Lizard, Blue Crocodile, Fat Harley, Adolphin, two Farfetch'ds, and Super Raptor.

Each of them was carrying weight-bearing equipment that Anjie had bought for them.

Bubo trailed far behind at the back of the line, even faster than the bulky Kodora.

After returning from their run, Anjay took a bath with several Pokémon and then moved a few porcelain jars out of the secret fortress's warehouse.

The porcelain jar contained the salted duck eggs and preserved eggs that Anjie had previously pickled.

The little Snorlax and the Ember Spirit gathered around expectantly, watching Angie fish the salted duck eggs and preserved eggs out of the porcelain jar.

"We're getting some new items on our menu today!" Anjie announced.

With preserved eggs, Anjie can make preserved egg and lean pork dumplings, and congee with salted duck eggs would be a perfect match!

"Gang~"

"Chirp~"

The little Snorlax and the Eclipta cheered together. They had also helped with the making of salted duck eggs and preserved eggs, and now that they were successfully pickled, they felt a great sense of accomplishment.

Bubo tiptoed to look at the table, asking anxiously, "Bu~bu~" Is it delicious? Is it delicious?

Unfortunately, it was too short to see anything.

Anjie patted its forehead lightly: "You're half-dead when you're running, but you come alive when you talk about food."

Bubo covered his forehead, looking aggrieved.

Angie then divided the salted duck eggs and preserved eggs into two portions each, leaving one portion at the Diancie Dining Hall for the Pokémon to eat, and planning to take the other portion to Munchlax's house later.

Then Anjie began to prepare for opening the shop with Pokémon, kneading dough and preparing fillings. During this process, Anjie followed the methods in the "Training Manual" to sort out the auras in the ingredients.

He wasn't sure if it was just his imagination, but he felt that the dough he kneaded using the waveguide was more elastic.

After Gardevoir, Gallade, Ralts, Psychic Meowth, and Meowth arrived, Ange, carrying the prepared ingredients, said, "Let's go!"

After a long absence from work, Anjie was full of energy.

"oh!!!"

Lizard, Ralts, Meowth, and Meowth cheered.

Now that Anjie is back, the staffing arrangements at both stores have been restored to normal.

Snorlax, Diancie, Gardevoir, and Gallade are still in charge of Diancie's Dining Hall; while Ange, Lizard, Ralts, Meowth, and Meowth are still in charge of Snorlax's House.

The only change is that all the store's financial management will be handled by Metagross, or more precisely, Robert II.

The tree-pillow koala, who had been a temporary cashier, was finally laid off.

Of course, this is a good thing for the tree-pillow koala, since being a cashier was something it was forced into anyway.

Its ideal life is to eat and sleep, without having to worry about anything else, and now it has finally come true!

Sure enough, it disappeared again right after I finished breakfast this morning.

When Ange arrived at the Snorlax's house, he and the Ecliptic immediately got to work.

He makes steamed buns and mantou, and transforms into a bitter lizard to cook porridge. Today, he has added a new porridge dish—century egg and lean pork porridge.

The super-powered cats weren't idle either; they were either wiping tables and sweeping floors, or setting out side dishes and bowls on the tables.

While busy, Anjie suddenly felt a wave guide approaching her, so she asked softly:

"Ghost, is that you?"

"Gauss~~"

Gastly slowly appeared on the ceiling.

"Are you watching us cook?" Anjie asked.

"Gauss~" Gastly nodded.

Before Anjie discovered it, it would secretly watch Anjie cook like this.

"Do you like cooking?" Anjie asked again.

Gastly hesitated for a moment. Did it like it? It didn't know. It only knew that it felt at ease watching Ange cook.

However, after hesitating for a moment, it nodded to Anjie.

Seeing this, Anjie asked, "Then do you want to learn to cook with me?"

"Gauss~" is that okay?

Gastly was a little excited.

"Of course," Anjie nodded. "As long as you're willing, as long as you're interested."

"Gauss~ Gauss~"

Gastly nodded excitedly and happily spun around in the air.

Anjie smiled and said, "Okay, you can watch from the side for now. Later, you can come home with me, and I'll teach you how to cook."

"Gauss~"

Gastly nodded and obediently hovered in the air, watching Ange.

Soon the first batch of steamed buns and mantou was ready. The moment Anjie opened the steamer, she noticed that today's buns and mantou were different from what she had seen before.

They looked whiter, bigger, and softer.
