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

Chapter 290 Miss Skirt's Shock!

After finishing speaking, An Jie suddenly remembered that she hadn't introduced all her partners, so she said, "Oh right, I have two more helpers here!"

As he spoke, he took out two Poké Balls, and with two flashes of red light, a family of rats and a paparazzi appeared in front of everyone.

When they came out and saw so many Pokémon staring at them, they were immediately frightened and hid behind Ange's legs, one on each side. The family of rats even clung tightly to Ange's right leg.

Anjie smiled and said to them, "A family of rats and puppies, don't be afraid, these are my family members, we're back home now."

Diancie and Snorlax waved and greeted the family of rats and puppies in a friendly manner.

Seeing how friendly everyone was, the two Pokémon cautiously stepped out from behind Angel.

Anjie introduced the two animals to everyone, saying, "This is a rat and a dog family. They're new here, so please take good care of them!"

"Gang~"

"Geng~"

"Indeed~"

……

All the Pokémon warmly welcomed the family of rats and puppies.

Caught up in the lively atmosphere, the rats and puppies gradually became more lively and quickly became friends with everyone.

Seeing this, Anjie smiled and said, "Now we can get to work!"

So everyone cheered and grabbed their shovels and spades, and got to work.

With everyone's efforts, a piece of land was quickly reclaimed.

In fact, Anjie brought back only a few red butterfly grass plants, which didn't require much space. However, everyone was so happy that Anjie came back that they accidentally opened up a lot of land.

After planting the red butterfly grass, Anjie looked at the large empty plot of land and said, "There's so much left, what are we going to do with it?"

The little Snorlax grinned foolishly and scratched the back of its head, saying, "G-G-G-" Hehe, I accidentally made too much.

Anjie thought for a moment, then looked at Miss Qun'er and asked, "Will it have any impact if I plant herbs near the red butterfly grass?"

Miss Skirt shook her head and said, "Lidi~Lidi~" It should be fine.

To be honest, this is a bit beyond its knowledge. Its knowledge comes from practice and word of mouth from Venusaur. It has never been exposed to vanilla before!

"Alright, let's just expand the land a bit more and use it to grow herbs!" Anjie thought it was definitely okay after Miss Qun'er said it was fine.

Miss Skirt: How about... we think about it some more?

After hearing Ange's words, the Pokémon immediately got to work with great enthusiasm.

Soon, three plots of land of the same size and square shape were cultivated.

Anjie took out the seeds of Mind Vanilla, Power Vanilla, and White Vanilla that the system had rewarded him with, and worked with the Pokémon, each busy in one of the three plots of land.

Angie, Tianxi, and the throwing monkey form a group responsible for growing the Mind Herb.

A group consisting of Snorlax, Groundhog, and Gengar is responsible for growing Powerful Herbs.

A group consisting of a mouse, a puppy bag, and Miss Skirt is responsible for the seeds of white vanilla.

The Thousand-Faced Beastman is specifically responsible for watering.

Anjie had spent some time in the herb village and learned a lot about herb cultivation from Grandma Julian and Chief Andrew. So, while working, he also guided everyone, and he spoke very knowledgeably!

They were halfway through planting when Wubo and the Catfish King brothers in the pond heard a commotion nearby. When they saw that it was Anjie returning, they excitedly jumped out of the water.

"Upo~ Upo~"

"Oh my god~ Oh my god~"

Upo ran quickly ahead, while the Catfish King hopped and leaped behind, calling out loudly to Ange.

Hearing the sound, Anjie looked over and saw two Ubo and two catfish kings. He waved happily.

"Upo, King Catfish!"

He suddenly paused halfway through his shout, realizing something was wrong. There were two catfish kings.

Ange looked at Diancie and asked, "The mudskipper has evolved?"

Tianxi slapped her forehead, then winked at Anjie with a playful expression, "Haha~~ I forgot to tell you, the mudskipper evolved the day after you left."

When Wubo and the Catfish King ran up to Anjie, they jumped and leaped about, expressing their joy at Anjie's return.

Anjie smiled and squatted down to them, saying, "So enthusiastic!" He then patted each of their foreheads.

"Upo~ Upo~"

"Oh my god~ Oh my god~"

The four Pokémon affectionately fawned over Ange.

Then Ange turned to the younger brother of the Magikarp and said, "Congratulations on your evolution! Now you're a Pokémon that can stand on its own."

"Mmm~ Mmm..." Hearing Anjie's praise, the Catfish King's younger brother was very happy. Seeing that Anjie and the others were planting something, it immediately spat out a jet of water to indicate that it wanted to help water the plants.

Anjie happily replied, "Okay, then you can help too."

"Upo~ Upo~"

"Oh my god~ Oh my god~"

Upon hearing this, the two Wobo and Catfish King jumped up and down, expressing their desire to help as well.

Anjie laughed and said, "Okay, okay, let's all help."

So everyone got busy again with great enthusiasm.

As Angie straightened up to wipe her sweat, she suddenly noticed that the three Diglett brothers and the Orion sisters had also arrived at some point.

The three gopher brothers used their tilling skills on the already cultivated land to make the soil more suitable for vegetation growth.

The Orion sisters then cast Grass Field on the fields where vanilla seeds had already been planted. As grass-based energy spread across the fields, sprouts of different colors slowly emerged from the soil and gradually grew into seedlings.

The buds of Mindful Herb are a light blue, the buds of Powerful Herb are a pale red, and the buds of White Herb are a tender white.

Seeing this, Anjay waved happily to the three gopher brothers and the Orion sisters.

"Three Digletts, Orion, you've arrived! I was just thinking of looking for you!"

"Diggle~"

"Linyu~"

The three gopher brothers and Orion happily ran to Angie's side upon hearing this.

Angie looked at the Orinyu sisters and said, "Orinyu, has your grass field gotten even better?"

"Linyu~ Linyu~" The Orinyu sisters nodded repeatedly.

"What happened?" Anjie asked in confusion. How did he suddenly become so powerful?

At this moment, Diancie spoke up: "Perhaps it was influenced by Xerneas."

"Linyu~ Linyu~" The Orinyu sisters nodded in agreement.

Ange slapped his forehead. "Oh right, how could I forget Xerneas!"

Xerneas is the god of life, brimming with the power of life. It's impossible for other Pokémon to remain completely unaffected by spending time with it.

"Lidi~Lidi~" Who is Xerneas?

Miss Skirt, who had just walked over, asked, explaining that she had come specifically to see the Orlyne sisters' grassy field because it was extraordinary, and that she had just overheard Angel mentioning this unfamiliar name.

Anjie smiled and explained to it, "It's the legendary God of Life."

Miss Skirt's expression froze for a moment, then she exclaimed incredulously, "The God of Life? The one who lives on the continent of Carlos, bringing life to Carlos?"

It had once heard its teacher, Venusaur, talk about the god of life and the god of destruction.

The teacher said that after the god of destruction causes a great disaster, the god of life will be able to bring even stronger vitality to that land.

These two gods have always kept the continent of Carlos vibrant. However, although it had heard the legends of the God of Life and the God of Destruction, it did not know their names.

Anjie nodded and said, "That's right, that's it!"

Miss Skirt exclaimed in astonishment, "How is this possible? How could the God of Life be here!"

Snorlax proudly raised its chin, "So what? The God of Destruction is in our house too! My master is the strongest!"

Anjie, both amused and exasperated, patted the little Munchlax's head and said, "Alright, stop bragging!"

The little Snorlax pouted and muttered softly, "I wasn't bragging!"

Speak of the devil, and he appears; at that moment, a gentle voice resounded in the hearts of all the Pokémon and Ange.

"Anjie, you're back!"

Everyone looked in the direction of the sound and saw Xerneas standing by the field, with several Alcremie on his back and several more standing at his feet.

The Alcremies have become Xerneas's little followers. They take turns helping Magearna make desserts for her, and spend the rest of their time with Xerneas.

Xerneas was also very happy to have them with him; the lively and adorable Alcremie fairies made Xerneas feel that he was always surrounded by a lively atmosphere.

"Xernias!" Ange waved happily at it.

Miss Skirt was now petrified; she truly was a goddess of life!

Although it had never seen the God of Life, the rich life force emanating from the Pokémon in front of it, and the gentle yet majestic aura it exuded, made it absolutely certain that it was the one!

It must be the god of life!

Xerneas quickly approached Angel and asked, "What are you planting?"

Anjie explained, "I got a method for processing tea leaves that requires heart vanilla, strong vanilla, and white vanilla, so I thought I'd grow some myself."

Xernias suddenly realized and asked, "Do you need my help?" If it were to help, the vanilla would grow instantly.

Anjie quickly waved his hand: "No, the grassy field with Orion and the others is enough."

He did not want to squander Xerneas's life force.

Although there was already a fixed method to replenish life force, Anjie instinctively felt that abusing the power of the gods was a very bad thing.

Xerneas's ability is too unique; it requires him to share his life force to be effective. Ange thinks it's best to maintain a sense of awe towards this ability.

It can be used, but don't overuse it.

Moreover, the mere presence of Xerneas on the Nibel Plateau is enough to bring it to life, something many people yearn for but cannot attain.

"Alright then." Xernias stopped what he was doing, and his gaze toward Ange became even more kind.

That's why it likes Anjie!

At this moment, Xerneas noticed Miss Skirt beside him and asked, "Is this a new companion?"

Anjie nodded and introduced, "Yes, this is Miss Skirt."

Xerneas squinted his crescent-shaped eyes and greeted Miss Skirt, "Hello, welcome to the Nibel Plateau."

"Mah-ho~ Ma-ho~" The Frost Fairies waved and greeted Miss Skirt.

At this moment, Miss Skirt was completely stiff. She never expected that she would have the opportunity to speak with the God of Life in her lifetime, so she stammered in response:

"Hello... hello!"

Then Anjie added, "There are other new friends too!"

As soon as he finished speaking, the paparazzi, covered in mud, and a family of rats came running over excitedly.

"Woof woof woof~"

Xerneas's appearance immediately caught the attention of Papa, another Fairy-type Pokémon. Papa happily ran to Xerneas's feet and kept rubbing its head against Xerneas's calves.

Xernias didn't mind that it was all dirty, and gently pressed his head against the puppy's forehead, saying, "What a cute little guy."

The Frost Fairies rushed forward and surrounded the paparazzi bag, and soon everyone was playing together.

Seeing the paparazzi interacting so warmly with Xerneas, Miss Skirt felt envious, but also very annoyed.

Why didn't it say more to Xerneas just now?

As they were chatting, Ange suddenly pulled out a stack of potent vanilla and handed it to Xerneas.

"Xerneas, this is for you!"

Xerneas asked in confusion, "This is...?"

Anja explained, "Your skill Earth Control requires charging to take effect, but with Powerful Vanilla, this side effect is gone."

The Earth Mastery buff is incredibly powerful, but its drawback is that it requires charging. Powerful Herbs are the item that can eliminate this charging side effect.

Ange has already shared the system backpack with Xerneas. Xerneas only needs to carry a stack of powerful herbs in his backpack and can use them whenever he wants, using Earth Control however he pleases.

After hearing Ange's explanation, Xernias smiled and put away the stack of powerful herbs.

"I will make good use of them."

Anjie laughed and said, "Once our own powerful herbs grow, you can use them however you like!"

Xerneas laughed and said, "Then I'll be looking forward to it!"

As the person and their Pokémon were talking, a cry suddenly rang out from the sky.

Everyone looked up at the sky and saw Yveltal whizzing past, surrounded by the chief crow and the ravens.

"That is..." Miss Skirt's eyes widened.

The moment that Pokémon appeared, it trembled all over.

Diancie walked over to it and introduced it, "This is Yveltal."

Miss Skirt, her face filled with shock, murmured to herself, "Ypeltar..."

Ange waved his hand in the air, then asked in confusion, "Shouldn't Yveltal be resting right now?"

Xerneas chuckled, "They must have heard you were back, so they came to see you."

"I see!" An Jie felt a surge of emotion upon hearing this.

After chatting with Xerneas for a while, everyone went back to work, while Xerneas lay down on the grass nearby and closed his eyes to rest.

Some of the Alcremie fairies rested with Xerneas, while others played and frolicked with each other, creating a very harmonious scene.

Soon everyone had planted the herbs, and Anjie looked at the swaying seedlings in the field with a satisfied smile on her face.

Seeing everyone covered in dirt, he said, "Let's go wash up!"

"Gang~"

"Upo~"

"Indeed~"

……

Everyone cheered and crowded around Anjie as they arrived at the pond. There, Anjie noticed that a stone staircase had been built along the edge of the pond, making it easier for everyone to fetch water and wash themselves.

"Where did this come from?" Anjie asked in confusion.

"Ma jiong~ Ma jiong~" was built with the help of clay figurines.

The older catfish king stepped forward and said that it really liked this stone step and often lay on it with its younger brother to sunbathe.

Anjie said with satisfaction, "The clay doll is quite good at handling things, not bad, not bad."

After playing in the water with the Pokémon for a while and washing themselves clean, Anjay took them home.

"du~ki~du~" Anjie, you're back!

At their doorstep, Magiana and Polcanion were waiting for them with smiles on their faces.

"I'm back!" Ange said with a smile to Magiana and Pulcanion.
