Elf-like Life

Chapter 79, Wanted Criminal Rada

Clearly, the two little ones hadn't put in enough effort in their preparations.

Before undertaking these kinds of missions, it's best to know yourself and your enemy, because each wanted villainous sprite is different, each has a special skill, and many are even seasoned thieves.

If you don't do your homework on Rada,

Going there rashly would definitely lead to a major crisis.

At that very moment, a legendary and experienced expedition team suddenly appeared in front of the wanted poster board.

Charizard taught:

"Hey, you two, wait a minute!"

The exclamation mark (!) represents Charizard, the powerful leader of the legendary expedition team, and Tyranitar behind him!

Boss: "Based on our experience, this wanted criminal is probably not that simple."

!!!

Lada, nicknamed the Swift-Footed Thief.

The focus is first on "speed," because this guy's specialty is escaping. In a crisis, he can rely on his absolute advantage to run away from his target.

Secondly, there's his signature move, Furious Fangs, which can reduce a target's health to half with a single bite.

Finally, Rattata, which excels at aggressive attacks with its teeth, also has the killer move, Incisor Fang. Combining the two Incisor Fangs will be too much for most Pokémon to handle.

Thank you both for your guidance!

Charmander admitted that he hadn't considered these factors at all beforehand, and was simply driven by passion and a desire to follow the righteous path to complete the mission.

Now that we've gathered all the information, we'll prepare properly with Pikachu in a bit, and then we can confidently embark on our journey.

In the next instant, with a "whoosh,"

Charmander tore Radamanthys's portrait off the wanted poster without hesitation, signifying that he was officially taking over the mission.

Seeing that Charmander and Pikachu were determined to go, the two powerful Pokémon spoke up one after the other, expressing their concern.

Old Man: "Hey Boss, looking at those two skinny guys, I'm afraid they'll get a good beating from the wanted criminals if they go there."

"Why don't we both come along? That way we can look out for each other."

Teacher: "Hmm, that makes sense."

"If all else fails, we can take on this mission together. A-level missions aren't that difficult for us anyway."

As soon as he finished speaking, Charmander and Pikachu both raised their little heads to show their surprise.

Firstly, I never expected the two big shots to be so enthusiastic, and secondly, they even took the initiative to help me.

"Old man, old teacher, this won't do!"

"You're harming them, making them do the task themselves!"

【!】Alakazam, who arrived late, finally appeared, looking like he had just had a long talk with his old friend Fatkopf all night and hadn't slept much.

Hu Di then glanced carefully at the wanted posters that the two little ones had torn off, and casually said:

"Sunflower Monster, you're an expert at exploring world maps. They haven't been to Steel Mountain yet, could you give them some pointers?"

At first, I thought Sunflower Monster was the cleaner in charge of the entire Wigglypuff Guild's cleanliness, but it turns out that being a cleaner was just her part-time job.

His true identity is the most famous expert on incredible maps within the Fat Koopa Guild.

They specialize in planning routes and exploring shortcuts for expeditions around the world.

The sunflower monster spread out two sunflower leaves, gesturing for the two little ones to open the incredible adventure map:

"Alright, for the sake of the legendary expedition team, I'll plan a route for you two for free this time."

Another incredible surge of chlorophyll energy swept across the entire map, as if giving it a brand new look.

Immediately after, in the northwest corner of Treasure Town on the map, behind the two small forests, a cluster of gray mountains is marked by the Sunflower Monster.

"This is Steel Mountain."

"Start directly from the northernmost point of Treasure Town and head west, being careful not to cross the first forest; I mean, from here."

The sunflower monster made another mark, probably a shortcut between two forests on the map, indicating that the two little ones should take this path.

Traveling in this manner, it takes less than 25 minutes to reach the Steel Mountain area, and the journey is easy and pleasant.

Charmander + Pikachu:

"That's amazing!"

Thinking back, it seems that when we were doing the VIP welcoming mission, the Lobster Soldier mentioned that the shortcut was planned by the Sunflower Monster.

With a dangerous waterfall, an underground river, and hot springs, is the route planned by the Sunflower Monster really traversable?

Sunflower Monster: "Don't worry, the Lobster Soldiers all gave me feedback this morning."

"Actually, the route you used to welcome guests last time was compiled by me based on a map left by the president 8 years ago."

"Moreover, the chairman himself went there once, so I can guarantee there will be no risk."

Wait, the entire route we took last time was the same one that Fat Koding had already traveled?

Is it still 8 years ago?

In other words, the perfect apple in that exquisite red treasure chest was also left behind by Fat Kodak, which makes everything match up!

"Yes, I didn't expect you guys to be able to find the apple that the chairman left behind. That thing didn't spoil even after 8 years. I'm really curious."

Charmander and Pikachu were immediately speechless.

In this way, the Sunflower Monster's strength was inadvertently proven, and every shortcut she planned made sense; following her adventure route was definitely the right thing to do.

However, it wasn't just the two little ones; even the big shots of the legendary expedition team started asking the Sunflower Monster for help.

Hu Di entrusted:

"Thank you for your help, Sunflower Monster. We would also like to ask you for some pointers on our route this time."

Upon hearing this, the sunflower monster seemed to break out in a cold sweat, as if some painful memory had been stirred up:

"Wait, wait a minute!"

"You guys aren't going to Zero Island again, are you? I'm never going again. Those islands are terrifying—no, I mean, they're hell on earth!"

Uh, Zero Island?

Devil's Land?

Hu Di quickly explained, "No, no, of course we're not going there this time."

Alakazam, Charizard, and Tyranitar all chanted in unison:

"We're planning another long journey to the edge of the underworld to find a faster and safer route for reference. Please."

"No way, the underworld!!!" (Sunflower Monster)

----split line----

After careful preparation, the two little ones set off according to the route planned by the Sunflower Monster and soon arrived at the Steel Mountain area.

The gray mountains stood tall in front of Charmander and Pikachu.

The rocks were all steel-like in color, and there were even fewer plants. The cross-section of the rock face even resembled that of ore.

It wouldn't be an exaggeration to describe its color as the side of an iron dumbbell.
