Elf: I am really a civilian trainer

In fact, the Caterpillar has complicated feelings about the elf egg in Mark's backpack.

It was a little curious. In fact, it had always been curious about what a cowardly bug was, and what could be hatched from the elf egg.

It was a little jealous. After all, this coward had his own Poké Ball before he was born, while it only had half a Poké Ball now.

There are also some indescribable emotions. In the past, Mark only had it to accompany him, but now there is one more person. It feels a little uncomfortable. Although the trainers on TV all have many Pokémons and this situation is normal, it still feels a little uncomfortable.

The Caterpillar's expression was not difficult to guess, and Mark quickly discovered what the Caterpillar was thinking.

It’s like after the first child is born in the family, the second and third children are pregnant. The first child’s feelings are pretty much the same at this time.

Mark actually doesn't have any good solutions to these problems.

He put the caterpillar on his shoulder again, stroked its head with his palm and said, "I remember you once said when you were in the village that you also wanted to fight like the elves on TV."

"Fizz!"

Mark laughed and said, “But, you can’t beat those opponents alone.”

The Caterpillar was slightly stunned and wanted to refute, but suddenly he thought of something and lowered his head.

It is just an ordinary caterpillar without any talent. It is far from those geniuses like Dugu Qiubai, Lu Dongbin and Li Er. Otherwise, it would not have worked hard for decades and then watched its master die of old age in a daze.

Mark patted the caterpillar's head and said, "So, we need more companions. This cowardly bug is our first companion. Do you want to fight alongside it?"

"Fizz, fizz!"

The Caterpillar's mood changed very quickly. After Mark's words, he immediately became full of fighting spirit. He no longer felt jealous of the elf egg that looked at the cowardly bug, but became very eager.

They are all comrades fighting side by side!

"Ss ...

"You asked when it will hatch. This... eh?"

Mark, who was watching the Spirit Master's panel, discovered something and raised his eyebrows slightly...

Chapter 33 We need to combine work and rest, so let's relax with some practical exercises

The reason why Mark had a strange expression was simple, because the cowardly bug information that appeared on the Yuling Master's panel could not be opened by mind at all.

In fact, not only can it not be opened.

After looking carefully, Mark found that the column [Cowardly Bug (Unhatched) (2.38%)] was actually gray.

Besides, there is something wrong with this 2.38%.

Mark initially thought that this 2.38% was the hatching progress of the elves, but after careful consideration, he found that there was something wrong with this number.

According to the village chief, the hatching period of the Cowardly Bug Elf Egg should not be that long. It has been with him for so many days, it is impossible that the hatching progress is only so slow.

"So, what is this 2.38%?"

Mark pinched his chin lightly and met the Caterpillar's eyes.

The latter was a little confused at first, then seemed to have thought of something and looked at him with excitement.

“Do you know this 2.38%?”

Mark looked suspicious.

Although it was a bit of an insult to the Caterpillar's intelligence, he really didn't think the Caterpillar could figure this out.

However, out of respect, Mark watched the Caterpillar's actions carefully.

The caterpillar found a small wooden stick from the roadside and quickly wrote the numbers 2, 3, and 8 on the ground. After writing, the caterpillar seemed to think of something and added a dot after the 2.

Looking at the numbers written on the ground, the Caterpillar nodded with satisfaction, and then showed Mark an expression waiting for praise.

Mark watched the Caterpillar's actions and his mouth twitched slightly.

He increasingly felt that he was raising the Caterpillar as if he were raising a human cub, even though he had never had a child.

To be honest, if he was the boss of a company at this time and Caterpillar was his employee, he would have beaten him up a long time ago.

But the Caterpillar is not his employee, but his child.

Although Mark was mostly speechless, he was inexplicably touched and relieved - the Caterpillar hadn't even figured out how to count, but had actually learned how to put decimal points.

"Okay, very good. It would be better if you could write the numbers more neatly. I remember the village chief said that you have to write the numbers neatly in order to get half of our Poké Ball funding. So you not only have to learn how to count backwards, but you also have to practice writing the numbers."

"Fizz!"

The Caterpillar nodded heavily, immediately picked up the stick and started practicing numbers on the ground.

Mark looked at the Caterpillar's extremely serious expression, shook his head helplessly, and then continued to look at the Spirit Master's panel.

Perhaps the Caterpillar incident changed his thinking. Looking at the 2.38% on the panel again, he suddenly understood something.

"This 2.38%, does it mean that the cowardly bug is progressing towards becoming my imperial spirit?"

"Right now, the information about the cowardly bug is gray. When this value reaches 100%, the information about the cowardly bug will return to normal and can be touched by my mind, and then detailed information will be displayed?"

"That should be it."

"So, how can we increase this value?"

Mark was thoughtful, and suddenly raised his eyebrows again—the 2.38% in his retina jumped slightly and turned into 2.39%.

"Progress can grow naturally?"

Mark thought of what the old village chief had said to him.

There is a mysterious connection between elves and humans. When elf eggs are near humans, they will hatch faster, and after hatching, the elves will regard humans as their relatives.

Could it be that it is precisely because of this mysterious connection that the progress of controlling spirits has been improved?

So, what if he used the Spirit Master's skills on the cowardly bug?

Thinking of this, Mark immediately used the [Impact Training Method] on the Cowardly Bug's elf egg to connect with the consciousness inside the elf egg.

Just like before, the elf egg calmed down after a tremor, and the consciousness inside fell asleep again.

The original 2.39% became 4.69% after using the [Impact Training Method], an increase of 2.3%.

If you use it about 40 more times, the progress will be increased to 100%.

At this time, after each use of the [Impact Training Method] of the Cowardly Bug Elf Egg, the consciousness in the egg will fall asleep for 2 to 5 hours, with an average time of 3.5 hours.

In other words, in about 7 days, this cowardly bug will become his guardian spirit.

While thinking, Mark suddenly realized something was wrong.

Because in the past few days, he has used the [Impact Training Method] on the Cowardly Bug Elf Egg dozens of times. It is clear that each use can improve it by 2.3%, so why is the progress only 2.38%?

Moreover, he also used the [Impact Training Method] on many green caterpillars in the forest. Why didn't those green caterpillars appear on his spirit master panel?

The memories of these days kept passing through his mind, and Mark suddenly realized something.

——Quantitative change leads to qualitative change.

He has been living with the Cowardly Bug Elf Egg day and night these days, and has been constantly using the [Impact Training Method] for prenatal education. Eventually, the quantitative change led to a qualitative change, allowing him to form a certain connection with the Cowardly Bug Elf Egg, or a bond.

Once a bond is formed, the elf will appear on his spirit master panel and a percentage of progress will be shown.

After figuring everything out, Mark breathed a sigh of relief.

In fact, Mark was somewhat worried before, worried that he would not be able to transform spirits other than the Caterpillar into his imperial spirit.

After all, when he first crossed over, the prompt sound of the Spirit Master system was reloaded, and the simplified compatibility mode was turned on, and finally there was garbled code. He was really worried that the Spirit Master panel was not fully functional.

Now it seems that everything is normal. In the future, if he wants to convert other elves into his imperial spirit, he can use this method.

After figuring everything out, Mark decided to continue on his journey with the Caterpillar.

Calculating the time, almost a whole day has passed, and the Caterpillar colony has probably almost recovered, which is a good time for him to continue training with the Caterpillars.

Mark said: "Green Caterpillar, do you remember what the village chief said? He told us that we can't just practice hard, we need to combine work and rest."

"Fizz!"

The Caterpillar nodded repeatedly.

Ever since the village chief promised to sponsor it with half a Poké Ball, it felt that everything the village chief said made sense.

Mark continued, "I also think what the village chief said is right. I have been studying on my own for the whole morning, and you have also been studying counting backwards for a long time, so let's change our mood and go to the Caterpillar Territory to find the Caterpillars there for actual combat training and relax!"

The caterpillar blinked. It always felt that there was something wrong with Mark's words, but it couldn't tell what was wrong.

But no matter what, it has been studying backwards all morning, and its mind is in a mess. It really should relax as the master said.

"Fizz!"

Thinking of this, the Caterpillar immediately ran towards the forest as before, and urged Mark behind him.

Seeing this, Mark followed.

I thought they would go all the way to Qingxi Forest, but just as they arrived at the exit of the village, they encountered an uninvited guest.

It was none other than the village chief of Qingxi Village, Old Man Qian.

Old Man Qian rubbed his stubble lightly, revealing an expression of "as expected" as he said, "I knew that you would go to Qingxi Forest after school. Are you going to the forest for actual combat training again?"

"Ah."

"Fizz!"

The green caterpillar raised its front legs, showing a muscular posture.

Old Man Qian laughed and touched the caterpillar's head. "It seems that since you came to your senses, your caterpillar has not only grown a little bigger, but also become more lively and cheerful. When we were in the village before, it always hid behind you and was very shy.

Oh, I almost forgot something important.

I came here to wait for you this time because there is something very important to you. I wonder if you still remember your house after you come to your senses?"

As Old Man Qian spoke, he handed him a book. It was a land certificate of Qingxi Village, and his name was printed on it...

Chapter 34 Return to Caterpillar Territory (Seeking Follow-up Reading)

“In fact, this land certificate should have been given to you after the Chaos Elf Tide ended ten years ago, but you were still young at that time, and then you became like that, so there is no point in giving it to you.

The land certificate you have now was applied for by me in Sanshan Town a few days ago.

In fact, according to the normal process, this certificate will take at least several months to come out. However, two people with special abilities were born in our village, so many things are now given the green light.
