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

Chapter 226 Where did Ibu go?

After taking the light rail from Baike City, Ange and his group quickly returned to Azot.

Because it was past noon when they returned, the Munchlax House was already closed.

Anjie led Tianxi and the others back home through the spatial passage, and then went to the balcony on the third floor.

He could hear the voices of Snorlax and Babugod coming from downstairs from afar.

"Just now~~"

"Babu~ Babu~"

Anjie looked ahead and saw that on the grass outside the wall, Snorlax was sparring with Babubo.

Anjay waved at them, "Snorlax, Babubo!"

Upon hearing Anja's voice, Munchlax suddenly looked up, its face immediately lighting up with immense joy.

"Gang~ Gang~" At this moment, it no longer cared about sparring and ran towards the house.

"Babu~ Babu~" Babuboo called out excitedly, running into the house with Snorlax.

As soon as Ange reached the top of the stairs, Munchlax pounced on him, followed closely by Babubo.

Ange was instantly tackled to the ground by the two Pokémon.

"Gang~ Gang~" Master, you're finally back! I missed you so much!

"Babu~ Babu~" I want to too! I want to too!

Anjie lay on the ground, embracing two women.

"Okay, okay, I'm back now."

"Gang~ Gang~" Master, why didn't you tell me you were coming back? I would have come to pick you up!

The little Snorlax rubbed its head against Ange's cheek as it spoke.

Anjie rubbed the back of its head and said, "Because I wanted to give you a surprise!"

The little Snorlax was immediately delighted by Anjay's coaxing.

"Gang~ Gang~" I love my master the most.

Anjie hugged its neck and said, "I also love Snorlax the most."

"Babu~ Babu~" And what about me? And what about me?

Babu Tubo immediately asked impatiently.

Anjie pinched its chubby cheeks and said, "Of course I like Babu the most too!"

His words left Diancie speechless. How many parts does your favorite thing have to be divided into?

"I said, that's enough of you three! Blocking the stairwell, are you even letting anyone walk?"

The housekeeper spoke, and Anja, Snorlax, and Booggle quickly scrambled to their feet and made way for them.

"Pashi~Pashi~" The throwing monkey covered its mouth and chuckled when it saw this, then leaped up and quickly disappeared.

It went to find the tree-pillow koala, the pot-pots, and the Night Demon. It missed them terribly after not seeing them for several days.

"Snorlax, Babubo, let's go." Angel held Snorlax in her left hand and Babubo in her right, and happily went downstairs with them.

"Libra, keep up!" he reminded Libra as he turned back.

Without An Jie's prompting, the two sword sheaths stayed close to An Jie.

Once downstairs, Anjie released Polcanion and Super Ostrich.

Polcanion immediately went to the kitchen on the second floor to find Magiana, who was very hurt and needed comfort.

Meanwhile, the Super-Powerful Ostrich dashed outside.

I'm back on the vast grasslands of the Nibel Plateau!

The super-powerful ostrich ran wildly across the grassland as soon as it stepped outside.

Beside the flowerbed in the square, Mare the sheep sat in front of the easel, lost in thought. The painting in front of it was only half finished.

In the flowerbed, three bees are flying around among the blooming flowers; this is the scene that Mare the Sheep drew.

At the edge of the flowerbed, Dream Eater and two round silk spiders were taking a nap.

With Tianxi not home, the dogs all looked listless.

Just then, they seemed to hear Diancie's voice.

"Everyone, I'm back!"

Mare the sheep slid off the stool in a flash, turned around and saw Diancie, then immediately ran over and buried itself in Diancie's arms.

Although it didn't make a sound and its face was expressionless, Diancie could already feel its longing for her.

Diancie gently stroked Mareep's soft fur and said, "Mareep, I'm back!"

Dream Eater and the two round silk spiders also quickly arrived at Diancie, telling her about their longing over the past few days.

Anjie asked the little Munchlax, "How are the new members doing?"

The little Snorlax replied, "G-G-G-" Master, don't worry, everyone is fine!

"That's good." He said, ruffling the little Snorlax's head. "Thank you for watching over the house."

The little Snorlax rubbed its head against Angel's palm.

Upon hearing this, Babu immediately exclaimed, "Babu~ Babu~" Me too! Me too!

Anjie patted Babu Tubo's head again and said, "Yes, yes, you've worked hard too."

Babu Tubo was immediately satisfied, and even his steps became much lighter.

Anjie continued, "Let's go check on our new partner!"

"Gang~"

"Babu~"

Snorlax and Babuto nodded, vying to lead the way for Angel.

Ange went to see Lucario first.

It is training in the culinary training room with the Thousand-Faced Avoid.

According to the little Snorlax, the two of them went into the cooking training room after lunch and have been there ever since.

At the same time, Ange also learned that Lucario and Thousand Faces were getting along very well.

This morning, Lucario went to Munchlax's house to help Inteleon. With Lucario's Aura to help process the ingredients, Inteleon's cooking skills were highly praised by the customers.

Therefore, Chiyo is in a very good mood today, which is why it is full of energy and is taking Lucario to the cooking training room to hone their cooking skills.

Lucario is also very capable.

Lucario was deeply grateful to Angel for providing it with a job, ensuring that it and Gothic Baby would never have to worry about food or drink again, and therefore it wanted to do everything it could to repay Angel.

After entering the cooking training room, Ange saw that Thousand Faces and Lucario were training intently, so he left quietly without disturbing them.

Then, in the kitchen on the second floor, Anjie saw Gothic Baby, Wobbuffet, and Giraffe.

They are helping Maya.

They had already learned about their future work arrangements from Anjie, so they came to Mayiyana's place to help.

Although they don't know anything about cooking, they can help with cleaning and washing pots and pans, saving Maya a lot of trouble.

Therefore, Magearna really likes these three hardworking and cute Pokémon.

Anjie didn't go into the kitchen, but instead stood in front of the kitchen window and glanced inside.

Sure enough, the old man was washing the dishes.

Baby Gothic uses his superpowers to control a rag to clean the stove.

Qilin Qi also used his telekinesis to control the broom while sweeping the floor.

While making desserts, Magiana chatted with Volcanion. Although Ange couldn't hear what they were saying, Volcanion looked aggrieved.

This... is practically like a tough guy acting cute.

He strongly suspected that Polcanion was trying to gain Magiana's attention by playing the victim.

Without disturbing the Pokémon, he quietly left with Munchlax, Groundhog, Saber Sheath, and Libra.

Back on the first floor, An Jie said to Shuangjiancha, "Shuangjiancha, you should go and rest for a while too. You don't need to follow me around all the time; overexertion isn't good."

The twin sword sheaths hesitated for a moment, then nodded in agreement. It flew directly to the wall in the living room, hung itself on it, and then closed its eyes.

Anjie was already used to its strange way of resting.

Just as Ange was about to continue visiting her new companions, Gengar returned from outside.

"Geng~~" Upon seeing Anjie, it immediately gave Anjie a warm hug.

"Gengar, where did you go?" Anjay asked with a smile.

As soon as Anjie finished speaking, two clay figurines carried a bamboo basket over, which was filled with all kinds of vegetables.

"Gen~ Gen~~" Gengar pointed at the vegetables and gestured their names. It turned out that it was preparing the ingredients needed for the noodle shop tonight.

Anjie couldn't help but say, "Thank you for your hard work."

"Gen~Gen~" Gengar shook its head, then smiled and gave Anja a hug again.

It didn't feel tired at all; on the contrary, it felt very happy.

It was its master who gave it a place to belong and taught it cooking skills, and it felt that every day was incredibly fulfilling.

Since it was still early, Gengar didn't need to rush to prepare for the evening's work, so Ange's group had another Gengar.

With Gengar's guidance, Ange spotted Goodra and two Goodra in the pond next to the vegetable garden.

Goodra and Goodra are quiet and not good at interacting with others. Since few other Pokémon usually come to the pond next to the vegetable garden, they gradually grew to like the place.

When Anjie arrived, the two clingy little girls were leisurely swimming around on the water.

Meanwhile, the dragon lay on the shore with its lower body submerged in the water, taking a nap with its eyes closed. Judging from the contented expression on its face, it must have been very comfortable at that moment.

Two pufferfish were playing on its thick tail that was above the water.

It is clear that Nianmeilong and Nianmeier get along well with Wubo, Mud Loach, and Catfish King, who live in the pond.

Anjie had no intention of disturbing Nian Meilong and Nian Meier's leisurely time, but Nian Meilong happened to open his eyes at that moment and noticed Anjie.

So Anjie took the initiative to wave and greet it.

"Yo, sticky dragon."

"Melon~" When she saw Anjie return, Nian Meilong was surprised at first, then waved to Anjie with a smile.

Having spent so much time with Anjie, it and Nianmei no longer wanted to be as easily frightened as they were at the beginning.

"Upo~ Upo~" Upon hearing Ange's voice, the two Upo immediately jumped off the tail of the Goody Dragon and quickly swam to the shore.

Anjie walked to the pond and patted each of them on the head, asking, "Upo, have you become friends with the Sticky Dragons and the others?"

"Upo~ Upo~"

"Upo~ Upo~"

The two wubo nodded vigorously.

Anjie laughed and said, "What a good child. From now on, I'll leave the sticky dragons in your care."

"Upo~"

"Upo~"

Upon hearing this, the two Ubo nodded solemnly as if they had received some extraordinary mission.

At this moment, the mud loach and the catfish king also emerged from the water one after the other to greet Anjie.

Anjie then said to them, "Mudskipper and Catfish King should also get along well with the Sticky Dragon and the others."

The mud loach and the catfish king nodded.

The two sticky creatures had already swum to the shore. They gathered around the sticky dragon and felt a little embarrassed as they listened to Anjie instructing Wubo and the catfish king to take care of them.

However, while feeling embarrassed, they also felt a warm current welling up in their hearts.

They knew that because of their special experiences, Anjie had always taken care of them, intentionally or unintentionally, in various ways.

After arriving at the Nibel Plateau and seeing how the Pokémon live here, Goodra and Goodie have completely fallen in love with the place and have also silently come to accept Angelie in their hearts.

After sitting by the pond chatting with a few Pokémon for a while, Ange went to check on Eevee and the others.

But where did Eevee and the others go?

Anja asked Gengar, who said it didn't know.

Just then, a tropical dragon flew by in the sky, so Anjie waved to it.

After landing, the tropical dragon lowered its head toward Anjie, expressing its affection for her.

Angie patted the back of its neck and asked, "Tropical Dragon, have you seen Eevee or the others?"

"Too~~" The tropical dragon shook its head.

"Okay, I'll ask other Pokémon." Angel patted Tropius's neck and said.

"Too~" The tropical dragon nodded, flapped its wings, and flew back into the sky.

Leaving the vegetable garden, Anjie arrived at the grassland and immediately saw the Sun Rock, which was suspended high in the sky and gathering solar energy.

"Sun Rock!" Ange called out to it.

"Swoosh~~" Upon hearing this, Sun Rock quickly descended from the sky.

Because it had just been gathering solar energy, it was radiating terrifyingly high temperatures, which frightened Anjie and the others into quickly moving away.

"Swoosh~ Swoosh~" Sun Rock smiled sheepishly upon seeing this.

"Sun Rock, have you seen Eevee or the others?" Angel asked.

Eevee? Sunrock shook his head.

"I see... Then you can continue with your work, I'll look elsewhere," Anjie said.

"Swoosh~~" Sun Rock nodded and then rose back into the sky.

"Strange, where did those three guys go?" Anjie asked as he walked, searching.

Snorlax, Groundhog, and Gengar walked (flew) while looking around, helping Angel to search, while Libra silently observed the surrounding environment.

This is where it will live from now on...

And so, Angel searched everywhere for the whereabouts of the Eevee creatures.

The Pokémon he encountered along the way were delighted to see him return and came up to greet him.

However, none of them had ever seen Eevee.

According to Moonstone, it did see the three of them around noon, but hasn't seen them since.

But where are the three Eevee at this moment?

In fact, they themselves don't know it.

They were supposed to be playing hide-and-seek with the baby Tyrannosaurus Rex today.

Who knew that when it was their turn to be the ghosts, the baby Tyrannosaurus Rex used its digging skill to hide itself underground.

How could they possibly find it?

So they had no choice but to admit defeat and let the baby Tyrannosaurus Rex come out on its own.

When the baby Tyrannosaurus emerged from the cave, Flareon lay at the entrance, gazing at the deep cavern. Suddenly, it wondered: What could the baby Tyrannosaurus possibly find if it kept digging?

After it brought up the idea, the four Pokémon decided to play an underground adventure game.

The baby Tyrannosaurus Rex alone wasn't enough to dig the hole, so they also brought in the Screw Mole, Kodora, and Digging Rabbit, who are all skilled at digging.

And so, the expedition team, consisting of Vaporeon, Jolteon, Flareon, Baby Tyranitar, Excadrill, Acorn, and Bunny, was formed.

Before they begin their expedition, they need to choose a location and start digging from there.

After thinking for a long time, they arrived at the bottom of the cliff on the edge of the Nibel Plateau.

That's the cliff where Paras and his friends grow mushrooms.

Of course, the location they chose was far away from the cave where the mushrooms were grown.

Once the location was selected, the excavation work began.

"Show~~" With a command from Vaporeon, the digging race between Baby Tyranitar, Excadrill, Adolphin, and Bunny began.

With the three Pokémon digging diligently, a downward-sloping passage gradually took shape.

During the excavation process, some mineral-rich soil was eaten by Kodora.

And so they dug downwards, not knowing how long they dug, how deep they dug, or where they had reached.

The further down they went, the dimmer the light became, forcing Raybee to conjure a burst of electricity from his body for illumination.

As time went on, the digging rabbit grew increasingly frightened, and so it said:

"Hobi~ Hobi~~" Maybe we should go back!

The screw-like mole immediately retorted, "Beep~ Beep~ You're such a coward! It's just a little dark, what's there to be afraid of?"

"Pfft~ Pfft~" That's right, that's right!

Although Flareon was a little scared, it pretended to be fearless and walked confidently in front of Vaporeon, puffing out its chest, out of pride.

"Saw~ Saw~" Vaporeon looked at Flareon with admiration and even licked Flareon's face.

Then Flareon glanced triumphantly at Jolteon and puffed out its chest even more.

╮(╯▽╰)╭ Raibou let out a deep sigh.

In short, out of consideration for face, no one backed down, and the adventure continued.

After digging for an unknown amount of time, the Pokémon were blocked by a solid boulder.

Seeing this, the screw-like gopher volunteered to go forward.

"Beep~ Beep~" Leave it to me.

It then brought its two claws together and used a high-speed rotation.

Its claws struck the stone with a tooth-grinding sound and sparks flew, yet the stone remained completely undamaged.

"Beep~" Why is this happening?

The screw-like mole stared blankly ahead.

"Kora~ Kora~" I'll give it a try.

Kodora stepped forward and said.

Upon hearing this, the Screw Mole had no choice but to retreat; its strength was indeed inferior to that of the Godora.

Kodora gripped the ground with all four feet and then slammed into the rock with a burst of force.

It uses a Fighting-type Pouncing attack.

Unfortunately, the result was the same: apart from a loud bang, the stone remained intact.

Then three Eevee Pokémon entered the fray, and they all used Shadow Balls to hit the rock. After an explosion, the rock was still unharmed.

"Hobi~ Hobi~" Maybe we should avoid this rock.

"Digging Rabbit suggested."

"Kora~ Kora~" That's all we can do.

You can nod your head a few more times.

Then everyone worked together to dig to the side, trying to avoid the rocks.

However, they underestimated the size of the rocks, and after digging for a long time, there were always huge rocks blocking their way.
