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

Chapter 73 There's a vegetable thief!

When Anjie returned at noon, Daigo was indeed gone.

During lunch, Ange learned about the evolution of the Zigzagoon, and the Zigzagoon even showed off the silk scarf that Daigo had given it.

The silk scarf really suits the straight-up bear perfectly. Putting aside its function, the color is just right for it, making the straight-up bear much cuter.

Anjie praised Straight Bear without reservation, and Straight Bear immediately circled around Anjie like a little puppy.

Then Anjie called over the Big Eater family.

He took out the Leaf Stone that Daigo had given him that morning and asked Bellossom, "Bellossom, I have a Leaf Stone here, do you want to evolve?"

"Whoosh~ Whoosh~" Is it really for me?

"The Leaf Stone is very rare. It has always wanted to evolve into a Pokémon as strong as its husband, but Leaf Stones are not so easy to obtain."

"Of course!" Anjie said with a smile, "I have no use for it, so of course it's for you!"

"Whoosh~ Whoosh~"

The chubby flower immediately extended its vine whip to take the leaf stone with a grateful expression.

The moment it touched the Leaf Stone, blue and white evolutionary light enveloped the Bellsprout, and the Victreebel and Bellsprout let out a series of exclamations.

In the light, the size of the Flounder continued to grow. When the light dissipated, a large Flounder, slightly smaller than the father of the Bellsprout, appeared before everyone.

"Ah~ Ah~" Mother Bell Sprout immediately hugged Angie happily, sharing the joy of evolution with Angie and expressing her gratitude to Angie.

"Okay, okay!" Anjie patted the big flower's muscular body, and the big flower finally let go of Anjie.

Seeing this, Trumpet Sprout's father and his three children gathered around his wife, and the family of five loved each other dearly.

In the afternoon, Anjie continued making tables and chairs with Robert No. 1, just like yesterday. Without Daigo's help, their work efficiency was much lower.

But there's no rush; he can take his time.

As evening approached, Anjay, as usual, prepared dinner for everyone with Munchlax and Sobble.

Today's main dish was still steamed buns, with braised fish and tomato and egg soup as side dishes. The Pokémon enjoyed their meal very much.

Half a month passed in the blink of an eye. That afternoon, Anjie and Robert No. 1 finally finished making all the tables and chairs. Anjie put up huge parasols in the square in front of his house, and a set of tables and chairs was placed under each parasol.

Sun umbrellas can protect tables and chairs from sun and rain.

These parasols were ordered by Anje using Alliance Coins from the capital city of Azot, because he had previously used up all his Happiness Points and had only recently saved up a little more.

Looking at the results of her hard work over the past two weeks, Anjie felt a great sense of pride.

Get the title of DIY expert!

After admiring his masterpiece, Angeli saw that it was still early and the Pokémon hadn't returned from cutting down trees yet, so he took Munchlax and Sobble to the staff dormitory.

After arriving at the staff dormitory, Anjie bought two very large televisions from the system store and then started working on them in the living room of the staff dormitory.

In addition to rooms with different layouts and structures, the staff dormitory also has a very large living room at the far end, which is where the Pokémon usually relax and play.

However, since it hasn't been furnished yet, the living room is empty except for some sofas, tables and chairs.

When Ange learned that Cocoyar and Diglett liked to battle, he thought about doing something for the Pokémon. So he went back and searched through the system shop and finally found what he wanted.

Unfortunately, he had already spent all his happiness points by then and couldn't buy anything. He finally recovered some of his points recently, so he took action.

Snorlax and Sobble didn't know what Angel was doing, but they still helped out.

Around dusk, Anjie finally finished his work and nodded in satisfaction as he looked at the two giant-screen TVs on the front wall of the living room.

Angie had previously found a set of discs on Pokémon battle technique training in the system store, and he was thinking of giving them to the Pokémon.

However, using CDs requires a matching playback device, which is why Anjie installed televisions and the corresponding equipment in the employee dormitories.

The TV and playback equipment aren't actually expensive, only a little over 10,000 Happiness Points. What's expensive is the combat skill disc set, which costs a full 200,000 Happiness Points!

There were over a hundred discs in total, with a lot of complicated content. Anjie thought he would leave them for the Pokémon to watch and study at their own pace.

To be honest, Anjie himself wasn't very good at battling. Although he had played games in his previous life, he wasn't a battling enthusiast. He only enjoyed the feeling of raising Pokémon.

So let the Pokémon watch the DVDs and figure out the battles themselves!

However, the system store states that some of the discs Anjie bought only contain demonstrations and explanations of combat techniques, and do not involve skill instruction.

If you want to learn skills quickly, you should just buy a move learner maker!

Of course, Pokémon also have a chance to learn new skills when studying battle techniques.

As for why Ange installed two televisions, it's because not all Pokémon enjoy battling. Many Pokémon prefer a quiet, peaceful, and harmonious life. So Ange wanted to provide them with some entertainment and relaxation options so they could unwind after work.

The televisions in the Pokémon world can be directly connected to the internet. Pokémon can watch shows, listen to music, and learn about the outside world through the television, so that they are not completely ignorant about what is happening outside.

With two televisions, Pokémon with different preferences won't argue about what they want to watch.

After the TV and equipment were installed, Anjie tested them and found that they all worked normally.

"Perfect!" he snapped his fingers.

Soon after, the Pokémon returned one after another after finishing their work. When they saw the new things on the living room wall, they were very curious, and most of the Pokémon did not recognize what they were.

"Whoosh~ Whoosh~" Anjie, what is this?

Fenxiang landed on Anjie's shoulder and asked.

"This...?"

Although Angel couldn't understand Pinkie Pie's words, she could guess what Pinkie Pie was asking from its puzzled expression, so Angel explained the purpose of the two television sets to the Pokémon.

"Miroo~ Miro~"

"Cocoa~ Cocoa~"

After listening to Anjie's introduction, whether it was Curly Ears and Skitty who liked a peaceful life, or Coco Dora and Screw Mole who liked to fight, they all jumped and danced with joy.

"Ya cha~ ya cha~"

"Meow~ Meow~"

The playful panda excitedly hugged Anjie's leg, while the cheeky cat kept rubbing its head against Anjie's trouser leg.

"Ya ma~ Ya ma~"

"Chiru~ Chiru~"

The rocket finches and blue-winged finches landed on Anjie's shoulders, one on each side, eagerly pointing at the two televisions, wanting to experience them immediately.

"Alright, alright, I'll get everything set up for you!" Angie said helplessly. "You guys don't know how to use these yet, do you? Come on, I'll teach you." He then beckoned the Pokémon to come forward.

He can't expect the Pokémon to turn on the TV every time they use it, so he has to teach them how to use it.

Anjie waved his hand, and all the Pokémon rushed to him and the television.

"Come on, this is the switch... It needs to be like this, and like this... like this..."

Anjie explained the steps in detail, and some Pokémon that weren't quite quick-witted soon felt dizzy and confused, even though the steps weren't complicated.

Turning the TV on and off isn't difficult; the real challenge lies in changing channels and playing DVDs.

"Oh my god~ Oh my god~" I can't take it anymore, I'm going to faint!

Rocket Sparrow fell off Anger's shoulder with a thud and was caught in Bricaron's palm.

The two sentry mice held hands, wobbled, and plopped down on the ground, their eyes seemingly sparkling.

Seeing this, Anjie said helplessly, "Look at how stupid you all are."

"Ya cha~" The mischievous panda scratched the back of its head and chuckled.

"Ku-ling~" The consuming beast also laughed while holding its belly.

"Meow~ Meow~" The tailed cat circled around Anjie, it was unclear whether it had actually learned anything.

"Meow~ Meow~" You guys are so clumsy, I've already learned it!

The tearful lizard put its hands on its hips and said with a gloating expression.

"Gang~ Gang~"

The little Snorlax sat on the ground, clutching its stomach and laughing at everyone.

Just then, Curly-eared patted its waist and asked with a puzzled look, "Mir~ Mir~" Little Snorlax, have you learned it yet?

⊙(◇)？ The little Snorlax's laughter stopped abruptly. Oh right, it hadn't learned it itself.

Seeing the bewildered look on Munchlax's face, the other Pokémon burst into laughter.

However, there are still smart Pokémon, such as DizzyFox and Greninja.

So Anjie called the Red Fox and Greninja to the front and taught them how to use the television and playback equipment.

Both Pokémon are exceptionally intelligent and learned quickly.

"Foxglare and Greninja, from now on, I'll be entrusting you with the job of broadcasting television for everyone," Ange said, patting the two Pokémon on the shoulders.

"Mahhoo~"

"Kouga~"

The two Pokémon nodded solemnly.

Then Anjie looked at everyone and said, "Alright, you guys have fun. I have to go back and cook. Remember to come up for dinner later."

"Chiru~"

"Ya ma~"

"Whoosh~"

……

The Pokémon responded.

After Ange left, the Pokémon immediately started watching TV happily. The TV was showing novel things that they had never seen before, and many Pokémon were quickly captivated. Even the water-type Pokémon on the fifth floor came over to join in the fun after hearing the news.

After Ange returned to the ground, he was preparing to go home with Munchlax and the others to cook when he suddenly saw Diancie running over in a hurry.

"Anjie, the three ground squirrels just came by and asked you to go check on the vegetable garden."

"What happened?" Anjie asked, puzzled.

"It seems like the vegetable garden was damaged by something," Tianxi explained.

Upon hearing this, Anja said to Munchlax and Sobble, "You two go home and cook, I'll go check on things."

Snorlax and Sobble nodded and went home first, while Ange and Diancie went to the vegetable garden behind the house.

When Anjie arrived, the three gopher brothers were waiting for him expectantly. Upon seeing Anjie, they looked dejected and filled with guilt.

Anjie asked, "What's wrong?"

"Diggle~"

"Diggle~"

The two gophers quickly called Anjie to look at the vegetable patch next to them. They saw that the vegetable patch, which had been growing neatly with thick scallions, was now in a mess. Many scallions had been uprooted and were lying haphazardly in the vegetable patch. There were also many footprints of varying depths on the vegetable patch.

"Diggle~"

"Diggle~"

The three gopher brothers looked at their carefully cultivated vegetable garden, which had been ruined like this, and tears welled up in their eyes.

Anjie entrusted the vegetable garden to them, ensuring they had plenty to eat and drink and lived a carefree life. However, they failed to take good care of the garden, which filled Anjie with guilt.

Seeing the brothers' expressions, Anjie squatted down and patted their heads. "It's okay, it's just a few green onions, we can just plant more, it's no big deal."

Besides, it wasn't your fault. You were helping cut down trees this afternoon, you weren't around, who would have thought something like this would happen?

After being comforted by Anjie, the two brothers felt a little better. They then cursed the scoundrel who had destroyed the vegetable garden, saying how despicable he was! His perfectly good vegetable garden had been ruined like this.

After calming the three ground squirrels, Anjie walked into the vegetable garden where thick scallions were planted. While picking up the scallions that had been pulled up, he observed the footprints on the ground.

The footprints are about the size of a palm and somewhat shaped like leaves. It's definitely not human to have footprints like these. They look a bit like bird footprints, so are they from an ordinary bird? Or a Pokémon?

Angela doesn't know much about birds in the animal kingdom, but if it's Pokémon... Angela is reminded of several Pokémon by these footprints.

Psyduck, Farfetch'd, Duckling, and even Waterduck! These duck Pokémon all have very similar foot shapes.

Carrying a bundle of scallions out of the vegetable garden, Anjie said to the three gopher brothers, "Tomorrow, don't go cutting down trees. Hide in the garden and keep an eye on things. If that guy dares to come again, catch him!"

"Diggle~"

"Diggle~"

The three gopher brothers nodded vigorously, their eyes burning with a determined fire.

Anjie added, "I'll get two partners to help you keep an eye on things later. If that guy dares to show up, he won't be able to escape."

Anyway, the trees on the riverbank have been almost cleared, so there's no need to leave too many Pokémon there.

"Diggle~"

The three gopher brothers nodded in unison.

The two brothers are actually among the higher-ranked Pokémon, but they lack combat experience and are a little worried about losing in battles. It would be even better if they had a partner to help them.

Back home, Anjie put the green onions in the kitchen. The little Snorlax and Sobble, who were cooking, looked puzzled. They hadn't finished using the green onions at home, so why did their master go and pick another bunch?

Then Anjie told her two apprentices about how the vegetable garden had been destroyed.

"Gang~ Gang~"

"Meow~ Meow~"

Sure enough, Snorlax and Sobble were equally furious.

When it was time for dinner, the Pokémon came to eat together. While they were eating, a blue and white light suddenly shone from Totodile's body.

In the light, the little saw-tortoise's body grew taller and its physique gradually became more robust.

When the light faded, a brand new Pokémon appeared before everyone.

It's a blue crocodile!
