Chapter 29 Gifts from Nature
While Lu Sha was engrossed in learning the moves, the Unicorn Rhino finished cleaning up the Beedrill camp.
Looking around, the ground was a mess.
Although, due to the protective mechanisms of the world's rules, most Beedrill only have their eyes spinning and are in a coma, unable to fight.
However, there are always some unlucky ones.
Those unfortunate souls who were unconscious and trampled upon are now reduced to scattered, broken limbs.
The broken insect wings and shells were mixed in the soil, a gruesome sight that made Lu Sha's eyelids twitch.
This is the real wilderness.
Are all wild Pokémon gentle? Anyone who believes such nonsense will probably die without even knowing how.
Pokémon that can survive in the wild either rely on their pack or have some special skills.
Regardless of the type, the struggle for survival is inevitable.
Where there is struggle, there will be death.
"Lu Sha, do you want some?"
Cattleya's voice suddenly rang out, cool and tinged with a hint of inquiry.
She crouched down and looked at Lu Sha:
"The book says that Gible is at the top of the food chain in the cave ecosystem and occasionally preys on other Pokémon."
In addition, she had seen it in a book.
However, some Pokémon are inherently noble, and even as predators, they will only protect the weak and never kill.
She could sense that Lu Sha was the latter.
She said that simply because she didn't want Lu Sha to feel bad.
Those blames could easily be placed on her.
Anyway, she doesn't care about being pointed at and talked about.
She was a monster to begin with.
"Click! (No, no, no! You really don't need this! By the way, should we collect these?)"
Lu Sha shook his head vigorously.
Although he accepted the true laws of this world, after all, this was not a utopia, and the law of the jungle was an ironclad rule of nature.
But accepting it is one thing, letting him gnaw on a Beedrill's thigh is another.
Even on the menu of the Grand Hotel, there are indeed many top-notch dishes made with Pokémon ingredients.
Although the alliance has explicitly prohibited indiscriminate killing, this ban is only strictly enforced in Kanto.
When it came to Sinnoh, they turned a blind eye even more.
For example, the famous braised duck with scallions—who knows if what's served is actually braised duck with scallions or braised duck with scallions?
But Lu Sha refused to eat raw meat and drink blood!
At the very least, it should be cooked properly.
"The remains of an elite Beedrill are not worth much. These carapaces and stingers together would probably only fetch a little over ten thousand on the black market."
Seeing that Lu Sha wasn't interested, and with no interest in collecting them, Cattleya stood up and gently patted her skirt.
"An elite Beedrill can sell for around 5. But it's not worth breaking the League's laws for that little money and having to sell it on the black market."
In order to gather those 13 top-quality resources for Lu Sha, Gadalia had long since memorized the prices of all the resources on the market.
If these corpses could fetch 100,000, she might even condescend to use her telekinetic powers to pack them up and take them away.
Even though she was short of money, she wouldn't care about such a small amount.
In this world, apart from the starter Pokémon officially issued by the League and Pokémon eggs sold through legitimate channels, selling live Pokémon privately is a serious crime.
Of course, the so-called free distribution comes at the cost of high taxes paid annually by the trainers' families.
The black market transactions are so numerous that the alliance can't keep up with them all.
Where there is demand, there will be buying and selling, and even the Kanto region cannot prohibit it.
In fact, the Kanto region is where the sale of Pokémon is most rampant.
"Click! (Well then, how's the honey collection going?)"
"It weighs 3kg in total, and the quality is just average."
Cattleya frowned slightly, looking at the several honey storage jars floating beside her, clearly dissatisfied with her spoils:
"That's only 6 points, not even enough to buy a box of top-tier dragon-type energy cubes, let alone the 10 points needed to exchange for premium soft sand."
"Click! (Little by little, we'll make a fortune. Let's go, next place!)"
Lu Sha, on the other hand, had a good attitude and was even comforting her from the side.
Things are valued for their rarity; if this thing were everywhere, it wouldn't be worth 2 points.
"Walk."
Without a word, Gadriya instantly enveloped herself and Lu Sha in a deep blue aura of superpowers.
The two soared into the air, transforming into a streak of light, and flew straight toward the next red dot marked on the map.
……
As night falls, the lights are on.
Around 9 p.m.
As Gadriya carried Lu Sha and slowly walked out of the Sinnoh Academy's mission center hall, her delicate, doll-like face couldn't hide her deep exhaustion.
Although her mental strength was close to that of a quasi-Heavenly King, she not only had to use her psychic powers to maintain high-intensity flight and travel throughout the day, but also experienced several fierce battles.
At this moment, she was somewhat mentally exhausted.
To save time, Gadriya chose to travel by direct, brute force.
Along the way, they encountered three wild Pokémon of Gym Leader rank.
If it weren't for her exceptional abilities, an ordinary student would probably have become fertilizer in the wild by now.
Fortunately, risks come with rewards.
After this trip, they swept through 5 large bee colonies and collected 20kg of high-quality sweet bees, which is worth a full 40 points.
But this is just an appetizer.
The real big problem was the unlucky guy they bumped into as they were preparing to leave the edge of the forest.
That was a Dojo-level Draconis.
At the time, Cattleya was feeling irritable because she felt that her points earnings were not up to expectations, so she took it out on the dragon king scorpion that happened to be passing by.
After a barrage of attacks, the poor Dragon Scorpion was easily captured by Cattleya and put into a Poké Ball.
Since Lu Sha didn't personally subdue it, it doesn't take up a team slot in the system.
Lu Sha had absolutely no interest in the Dragon King Scorpion, which possessed both evil and poison attributes.
but!
I may not like it, but that doesn't stop it from being valuable!
According to Cattleya's estimate, this gym-level Draconis is in excellent condition and could fetch at least 500 million on the black market.
This made Lu Sha seriously suspect that Cattleya was deliberately wandering around the territory of the Dragon King Scorpion.
"Click! (What should we do with this Dragon Scorpion? Isn't Plantina's family quite wealthy? Should we sell it to her?)"
Lu Sha gestured the name without any psychological burden.
When it comes to selling Pokémon, as long as it's not him who's being sold, he always applies a very double standard.
"inappropriate."
Cattleya pondered for a moment, then shook her head:
"Although Prantina is rich and can give away top-tier items casually, she's a typical well-behaved girl from a wealthy family. If she knew we were doing this kind of shady business, she would definitely report us."
She has a telepathic ability that allows her to read other people's joys, sorrows, and anger.
All she saw in Plantina and Cynthia's classmates was their love for Pokémon; none of them were suitable for trading.
"Click! (Yeah, newbies are always clueless and cause trouble.)"
Lu Sha deeply agreed.
Given Prantina's personality, she might actually mistake Cattleya for a member of an evil organization.
Although the private trading of Pokémon is rampant despite repeated bans, we are all students at the academy, so we should at least abide by the official rules.
"Should I disguise myself and go to the black market?"
Cattleya frowned slightly.
She has always hated trouble and disliked places where all sorts of people mingle.
But for the money, for the sake of supporting Lu Sha, she could endure it.
"Click! (No, that's too dangerous. Let me contact the channels and see if it's safe to make the move.)"
Lu Sha stopped her.
He was joking; sending a rich young lady who was obsessed with money to the black market would be a recipe for disaster.
As a shark with human-like intelligence, it's more reliable for him to handle these dirty and tiring tasks.
"Okay, just tell me what you need me to do."
Cattleya nodded trustingly.
During the conversation, the elevator arrived at the 30th floor of the dormitory.
Ding!
The elevator doors slid open to both sides.
Cattleya stepped into the common room, but suddenly stopped.
On the sofa in the lounge, Cynthia was holding a cup of coffee. Her gaze went over the rim of the cup and landed on her.
Upon seeing Gadria, Cynthia instinctively got up and walked over.
"What is it?" Cattleya asked in a flat tone.
"You went to the countryside?"
Cynthia's gaze fell on Gadria's white dress, the hem of which was stained with some dirt and purple venom spots.
The smell of gunpowder left from the battle, and the slightly disheveled hair, were definitely not traces that could be made in an academy.
"Going to do a mission."
Caldelia casually replied and then said no more, carrying Lu Sha and swiping her card to return to her room.
Right now, all she can think about is how to cash in on that Dragon King Scorpion; she has no interest in chatting with people her own age.
If this Dragon King Scorpion can be successfully sold, it will mean that a new path to wealth has been opened up.
Gym-level Pokémon start at 200 million, with rarer varieties reaching as high as 1000 million.
Even if we only catch one a day, and the average is 500 million...
One year!
In just one year, she can equip Lu Sha with top-quality resources for all her attributes!
No, if you catch 12 each day...
Thinking of this, Gadriya unconsciously tightened her grip on Lu Sha's arm, her eyes burning with a fierce desire to make money.
boom!
The door slammed shut.
Only Cynthia remained in the lounge.
She stared at the closed door, and the pleasantries she had prepared stuck in her throat.
Cynthia pursed her lips and put down her coffee cup.
Cattleya, who is the same age as her, or even a little younger, has already gone out into the wild to train on her own.
A sense of urgency instantly welled up in my heart.
"tomorrow..."
The girl pursed her lips and bent down to stroke the gible's head:
"We're going to the mission center tomorrow too; we can't let her leave us far behind!"
