Elf-like Life

Chapter 16, The Expeditions

This book might... but I won't abandon it. I'll temporarily switch to a two-update mode. I'm going to evolve into a two-update beast!

Thank you rihan小白白 for the 10000 reward, and thank you Luo Cheng's little brother for the 200 reward.

Expedition Team Name: Spirited Young Men's Expedition Team

Size: 3

Team composition: Koboro + Infernape + Ludicolo

Guild Contribution: Leader

Partial list of expedition counts: S-rank missions 18, A-rank missions 40, B-rank missions 31, C-rank missions 50.

Not only is the team name corny, but these three little elves also each lead a corny trend and are good at dancing.

They would promote their products through dance in the lobby whenever they had a spare moment; they were the type to break into an impromptu dance at the drop of a hat.

This time they finally caught two new faces, and then cheered them on for quite a while.

The next instant, a familiar background music suddenly started playing from somewhere, and without saying a word, Kobo Lang started dancing to "New Treasure Island":

"Hey you two newbies, listen up! If you want to be a real man, you'll have to know how to do the 'New Treasure Island' dance!"

kono mama kimiwo…

Pikachu + Charmander: "Awesome!"

Infernape was immediately annoyed, and stylishly leaned back, while the background music immediately switched to the Cloud Palace Sound, completely overshadowing New Treasure Island.

"What exactly is an international superstar?"

"Don't worship anyone on the journey to the West, unless you've waved your hands as high as I have!"

"Master, let's go!"

Down down ...

Pikachu + Charmander: "So exciting!!"

At the last moment, Captain Rakuten Kappa couldn't stand it any longer and instantly took control of the entire stage:

"stop!"

"Don't compare yourself to other elves. Just be yourself. If you really want to compete, then compete with laser rain!"

UM BBR GR OU GAI!

For a time, chaos erupted in the hall. Charmander and Pikachu found it hard to appreciate and eventually made an excuse to sneak away, thus escaping being tormented by the energetic young adventurers.

The expedition teams I've seen before mostly consist of 2 or 3 Pokémon members, but there have also been large ones.

For example, the next thing we'll encounter is a large-scale expedition team consisting of five elves, who are also extremely popular, making a grand appearance.

Expedition Name: Ace Pilot Expedition

Size: 5

Team composition: Pidgeot, Starhawk, Bravehawk, Arrowhawk, Corviknight.

Guild Contribution: Silver Alliance

Partial list of expedition counts: S-rank missions 51 times, A-rank missions 35 times, B-rank missions 55 times, and C-rank missions 10 times.

All team members are at the peak of their looks and are also an extremely powerful flying squadron. This expedition team frequently accepts S-level difficulty missions, and their guild contribution level has reached the Silver Alliance level.

Compared to them, Charmander and Pikachu's Starry Night Expedition Team is like a newbie getting completely crushed by pros.

You can tell just by looking at those birds of prey spreading their wings.

The Starhawk has always been known as a suicide warrior, and its unruly tuft of hair on its head is even more eye-catching. The Warrior Eagle strikes a pose of defiant heroism, the Arrowhawk spreads its wings of swift wind, and the Steel Raven's strength is even more unfathomable beneath its jet-black mirrored wing armor.

The next instant, Captain Pidgeot returned to the team with an S-rank mission and addressed the entire group:

"This is today's S-rank mission. Anyone willing to take it?"

The four birds—Munkeagle, Warrior Eagle, Arrowhawk, and Steelraven—shouted in unison:

"Yes, an ace pilot requests to be deployed!!!"

————Guild Divider————

Charmander and Pikachu had only been in the Wigglypuff Guild for a short time when they were already deeply impressed by how vast the world of exploration was for the globalized expedition team.

The various expedition teams all had their own tricks up their sleeves, and none of them were pushovers gathered in the hall.

The two little ones are like newbies who have just joined the group.

Everything here seems so new, but you quickly realize the gap between yourself and the big shots; clearly, they are at the very bottom of the power ladder.

Group status -100.

Pikachu lowered its little head in slight disappointment:

"Hey, little fire dragon."

"It seems the gap between us and everyone else is really huge; we seem to be the weakest in the entire hall..."

The little dragon quickly comforted him:

"That's true, but our expedition team has only just been formed. Maybe after a series of trials, it can become as strong as other expedition teams, definitely!"

Upon hearing Charmander's words, Pikachu immediately perked up:

"You're right, Charmander!"

"Sorry, I just said something lacking in confidence again. We can definitely become stronger, we can definitely be like them!!"

The moment the words left his mouth, it turned out that the creature that had struck up a conversation with the two little ones was not an expedition team, but a lone buck-toothed raccoon.

A light red glow emanated from the buck-toothed raccoon's two chubby cheeks, making its little buck teeth very obvious. Its eyes instantly lit up with excitement as it gazed at the two little ones.

"Oh my God!"

Charmander + Pikachu: [?]

The buck-toothed raccoon bared its front teeth: "Are you two new apprentices? Good heavens, I'm so excited to meet new people!"

Charmander and Pikachu were momentarily confused.

In short, this buck-toothed raccoon looks harmless and weak, but its goofy grin with its buck teeth always makes the two little ones feel kind.

The two little ones introduced themselves politely:

"Hello, we're newbies from the Starry Night Expedition Team~"

Upon hearing the term "newbie," Bucktooth Beaver became even more excited. Unable to contain his elation, he said in a goofy voice:

"Good heavens, no new players have joined our guild in ages!"

"I'm Bucktooth Raccoon. I never expected to meet newbies today. I'm so happy! Don't be shy, new teams should go downstairs to register."

"You guys go ahead, I have to get busy~"

After saying that, the kind-hearted buck-toothed raccoon even gave the two little ones directions, telling them that the new expedition team had to go to the next level to complete the registration in order to be officially registered.

Then they happily climbed back to the bunker exit along the vines.

"Hey, Charmander, that buck-toothed raccoon is really helpful. He doesn't seem like a member of the expedition team."

The little dragon nodded seriously.

"The big shots were all so intimidating before, I was worried that we would be killed by their aura, until we met that buck-toothed raccoon and we finally breathed a sigh of relief."

As Pikachu was talking, Charmander frowned, realizing something was wrong.

That buck-toothed raccoon is quite something.

Having buck teeth and always looking a bit goofy doesn't mean you lack charisma; it's just that it's masked.

In reality, the guild contribution level displayed above the buck-toothed raccoon's head is not at the level of a captain, guild leader, or silver guild.

"Wait, Pikachu, look again, am I seeing things?"

"What was the contribution level displayed on the little badge above the head of the buck-toothed raccoon we were just chatting with?"

Bucktooth Raccoon → [Veteran]

Pikachu: "Eek! Eek! Eek! Eek! Eek!"

"An elder even higher than the [Golden Alliance], meaning an extremely rare elder within the Fat Koding Guild!"

The two little ones stared in disbelief.

At the last moment, a shrill voice suddenly came from behind, rudely calling out to them:

"Hey, you new apprentices over there!"

"Stop wandering around the lobby, all of you come here!!"

Jiang Jiang can't be a one-chapter beast anymore. Finally, a huge thank you to all the readers! I'm also asking for your votes, rewards, favorites, and investments. That's all for this chapter!
