Elf: I am really a civilian trainer

After Mark put it down, the little electric motor looked around for a while before continuing to devour its food.

In fact, this is because the Cowardly Bug has experienced several years in the dream world and has become very familiar with the caterpillars. Otherwise, when seeing the green caterpillars around him, the Cowardly Bug might be so scared that he couldn't even eat.

Yes, at this time, there were about two hundred green caterpillars near Mark's camp.

After finally returning to Qingxi Village, Mark naturally would not return empty-handed, so he picked some caterpillars who liked a stable life from the caterpillar group.

On the one hand, he can let these caterpillars enjoy a leisurely life at the breeding base, and on the other hand, he can make some money.

In three months he will apply for the Elf Academy in Hake City, so it would not be a bad idea to prepare some funds.

"Chirp chirp~ chirp chirp~"

The timid bugs make sounds while eating.

This timid insect has a small habit, which is that after eating its favorite food, it will hum while eating.

Mark watched the cowardly bug eating unknown sour and bitter fruits, and at the same time watched the experience bar rising on the Spirit Master's panel, and shook his head unconsciously.

The reason for shaking the head is nothing else but the experience efficiency gained by the cowardly bug through eating.

The experience efficiency of the cowardly bug in eating is very low. When eating the same kind of food, the experience efficiency it generates is less than a quarter of that of the green caterpillar.

It’s not that the cowardly bug gains less experience through eating.

Although the experience generated by eating is not very efficient, the appetite of the coward worm is huge. As a white sea cockroach living in the waters of the Rom Federation, the coward worm is an extremely famous scavenger. They live in groups near the coast and specialize in swallowing some marine garbage.

In terms of food intake, the timid worm eats more than four times as much as the green caterpillar.

Yes, the experience efficiency is one quarter, and the food intake is more than four times.

The total experience gained by the Cowardly Bug through eating is slightly more than that of the Caterpillar, but not much more.

This also made Mark give up the idea of ​​breeding big-eating Pokémon such as Snorlax and Snorlax.

It turns out that the same weight of food means different things to different elves.

The food that can allow an ordinary green caterpillar to evolve after a month of feeding can be eaten by Snorlax in one meal.

Such food has completely different meanings to the two elves, and the amount of experience points it can generate is naturally also vastly different.

Mark pinched his chin lightly.

In fact, Snorlax and Ooal Gear were his next choices after obtaining the transportation Pokémon.

But now, this option has been rejected by him. Since he cannot gain excess experience points, there is no point in him training this kind of gluttonous elf.

So, now that he has dealt with the transportation sprite, what sprite should he choose next?

Mark, who was lost in thought, suddenly noticed that the caterpillars in front of him were in a commotion. At the same time as the commotion occurred, the small electric motor that was eating quickly hid under his clothes again and began to vibrate continuously.

It was not until the culprit who caused the riot showed up that the cowardly bug tentatively crawled out of Mark's clothes and continued to eat the sour fruit.

The one who caused the green caterpillar swarm to riot was none other than Mark's green caterpillar.

“Hiss, hiss, hiss!”

The Caterpillar looked excited as he handed him a piece of paper similar to a supermarket promotional flyer. It seemed that he had picked up a flyer while looking for fruit nearby. It might have been left in the forest by insect catchers or forest rangers.

The flyer came from the Pokémon Supply Store in Sanshan Town. It contained a lot of discount information on Pokémon supplies, Pokémon feed of various flavors, energy cubes, Carp King energy drinks, Phoenix King Moo Moo Milk, and various kinds of fruits.

Mark also saw the information about orange fruit, which was 119 yuan per catty, which was similar to the price Uncle Qian mentioned. It was sold at 100 yuan per catty, and would cost around 120 yuan to buy.

In the most eye-catching position of the flyer is a blue and white super ball, which is priced at 29800.

Although the Caterpillar didn't say it explicitly, Mark had already seen what the Caterpillar was thinking.

Mark said, "You don't want your original Poké Ball anymore, and you want to exchange it for this one?"

The Caterpillar nodded continuously at first, then quickly shook his head.

"Hiss, hiss, hiss."

Mark looked strange and asked, "You want this super ball, but you also want to continue using the elf you are using now?"

"Hiss, hiss, hiss, hiss, hiss!"

The Caterpillar nodded continuously. It had an idea when it picked up the flyer. It would live in one of the two Poké Balls every other day, so that it would feel fresh every day.

As for the money to buy this Super Ball, the Caterpillar felt that it could just sell a few hundred more Caterpillars in the territory to the old man, so that it would have the money to buy the Poké Ball.

Listening to the words of the Caterpillar, the corners of Mark's mouth twitched slightly unconsciously.

The Caterpillar's words made him inexplicably feel that his father's land was sold by his son without any regret.

Obviously, he had to think carefully before selling one or two hundred green caterpillars to avoid any negative impact on the green caterpillar population. As the owner of the territory, why could the green caterpillars feel so at ease selling their own people?

When it sells it this way, has it ever considered what these green caterpillars think?

While thinking, Mark glanced around and the corners of his mouth twitched again.

Well, the green caterpillars around who are about to be sold look very happy. I guess those stupid green caterpillars in the territory will also be happy to hear that they are being sold...

Chapter 62 If you want to wear the crown, you must bear its weight

Looking at the green caterpillars around him and his own green caterpillar, Mark suddenly realized that he had overlooked something during this period of time.

He only thought about cultivating the Caterpillar's strength and cultivating the Caterpillar's desire to become stronger, but ignored the education of the Caterpillar's three views.

Although the Caterpillar's remarks about selling the elves did not have any bad intentions and made sense, it was a win-win choice, but if it went further, it would be very dangerous.

The minds of elves are as pure as a blank sheet of paper. He must provide some education and guidance, otherwise it will be easy for them to go astray, just like those otherworldly "little fairies" who were rampant on the Internet before he traveled through time.

Thinking of this, Mark knocked the Caterpillar's head and explained to the Caterpillar with a slightly stern expression the relationship between the Caterpillar colony and the Caterpillar territory.

After the expansion of the Arbok's territory, the number of Caterpillars in the Caterpillar's territory has decreased a lot.

It is actually okay for him to take away a few elderly, weak, sick and disabled people who are not suitable for living in the ethnic group.

But if the caterpillars in the territory are casually sold to the breeding base, the number of caterpillars in the territory will inevitably become less and less.

When the number of caterpillars in a territory drops to a certain level, the caterpillar territory will no longer exist.

As Mark spoke, the Caterpillar's eyes gradually widened in disbelief.

It really hadn't considered that its actions would cause such great harm to the tribe. It just saw Mark selling caterpillars for money, so it wanted to learn Mark's method. It didn't expect that there would be such serious consequences.

As if he saw through the Caterpillar's thoughts, Mark patted the Caterpillar's head gently and said, "I know it but I don't know why. In fact, I have been negligent these days. Although I have carefully considered some things, I have not explained them to you.

But it’s not too late now. I will explain these things to you in the future and help you establish a correct view of insect life, the world, and values.

In addition, I will help you understand the deeper meaning of [The Caterpillar King].

If you want to wear a crown, you must bear its weight.

These caterpillar children trust you unconditionally, and your every move has a huge impact on them.

Perhaps after you comprehend these and become a qualified Caterpillar King, your [Caterpillar King] ability may become even stronger..."

"Hiss."

The Caterpillar nodded and looked at the flyer for the Elf Supplies Store on the ground beside him.

After watching for about half a minute, the Caterpillar's expression suddenly became firm, as if it had made some kind of decision.

“Hiss, hiss, hiss!”

In that case, the blue super ball that looks so cool in the flyer is no longer needed.

Well, no more!

After saying that, the Caterpillar turned its head away and never looked at the super ball on the flyer again. Unfortunately, after less than ten seconds, it couldn't help but take a peek, and then quickly turned its head away again.

It really doesn’t want it anymore!

Crunch~crunch~

A strange sound was heard, somewhat like chewing. The Caterpillar turned his head back in confusion and saw the small electric motor gnawing on the store flyer. Coincidentally, the gnawing position was exactly where the blue super ball was.

Tears welled up in the caterpillar's eyes unconsciously, and then the caterpillar found that Mark's palm patted its head again.

Mark looked at the pitiful green caterpillar and said, "I just said that green caterpillars should not be oversold. When did I say I wouldn't buy you a super ball?"

"hiss?"

The caterpillar's face was full of disbelief at first, then it excitedly crawled to Mark's shoulder and rubbed its head against Mark's cheek wildly.

"I've told you many times, you big bug, don't try to act like a spoiled brat to me. I don't like it. If you keep clinging to me like this, I'll regret it..."

The caterpillar seemed not to hear it and continued to rub Mark's cheek for a long time before stopping. The surrounding caterpillars followed suit and also rubbed their heads against Mark's body.

After a long while, as the Insect King stopped, the caterpillars stopped together.

Mark shook his head helplessly, and suddenly remembered the method that Uncle Qian once taught him, so he smiled and said, "You can buy the super ball, but you should know the price of the super ball, so I have a condition. You need to understand the plane coordinates and space coordinates before I can buy it for you."

"Ss ...

Hearing the caterpillar's question, Mark explained: "You are now learning multiplication and division. Later, I will teach you the four mixed operations and one- and two-variable linear equations. When you have a good understanding of them, I will try to teach you the concepts of geometry, as well as plane coordinates and space coordinates."

The caterpillar tilted its head.

Although they didn't quite understand it, it didn't think much about it. It immediately picked up the small wooden stick and studied the multiplication formulas it had learned during its free time in the past two days on the ground.

But before the Caterpillar could study for too long, it was called by Mark, along with the small electric motor that had finished eating the store flyer.

Mark said: "I just thought about your three views, and I thought of one thing, which is the point distribution of the future spirit master panel.

It would be fine if you were all ordinary animals without any self-awareness, and I would just add the points and distribute them, but you are all elves with self-awareness.

You may not understand the meaning of adding points now, but you will understand it in the future.

Therefore, regarding the future points allocation, I have decided to distribute them according to contribution, and will also take your wishes into consideration when increasing points.

I will count your experience points gained and calculate your point contribution rate.

From then on, every time I accumulate points, unless I encounter some crisis and need to temporarily add points to a specific elf to improve its strength, I will choose the elf with the highest contribution rate in order and subtract 100% from the elf's contribution rate.

Well, since I can also gain experience points, I will also participate in the contribution rate statistics with you, and the added points will naturally be included.

In this way, you will not be working for others, which will consume your enthusiasm. In the end, the strong ones will reap the fruits of their labor, while the weak ones will lose motivation, thus falling into a vicious cycle.

In the short term, our overall strength may not be as much improved as concentrating points on one Pokémon, but in the long run, this fair point distribution method will bring us more growth."

The caterpillar tilted its head, somewhat confused.

The coward was the same, looking at Mark with confusion, obviously not understanding either.
