Chapter 29 Pretty Girl: I want the Ice Stone on your body!

morning.

8 points.

There is still half an hour until the opening ceremony performance of the Qidu Street Elf Carnival.

However, the people in charge of the stalls in each block were already in place and busy at work.

Especially the food stall owners.

Elf cuisine is undoubtedly a hot topic, and no matter where in the world it is, there will always be a group of food enthusiasts.

Made primarily with MooMoo fresh milk, this product line includes various dairy products such as MooMoo pudding, MooMoo yogurt, and a super-sized cherry blossom crystal MooMoo milk...

There are also sweet-themed dishes like honey grapefruit tea, honey osmanthus jelly, honey toast, and honey pancakes...

The combination of cream puffs and milk tea is a killer combination in the dessert world. Both its appearance and taste are enough to make its stall one of the most popular spots in the area.

Meanwhile, the Little Fire Dragon BBQ and Lava Worm Pancake became two other popular food stalls, making it onto the must-eat list of the Seven Cities Carnival.

Then there's the mini ice cream, made with Moo Moo fresh milk and smooth shaved ice, which is equally mouthwatering.

……

A large number of people had gathered in front of each stall.

Everyone was queuing up, eager to savor the various elven delicacies.

but.

In this food area.

In a forgotten corner, there exists an anomaly.

It was a fruit stall, with a small square table about two meters long filled with all kinds of dazzling fruits, diverse in variety and bright in color, but no one paid any attention to them, and the place was deserted.

This was the very stall Chen Qi had seen, and the one he was looking for.

Chen Qi walked forward with a delighted expression and quickly learned why there was no one in front of the stall.

【500 each, no bargaining】

A single fruit costs 500 yuan, which is a considerable expense for most ordinary people.

Instead of spending the money on tree fruit, why not go and try some more elven delicacies?

Most people are just starting out as trainers and don't yet know how important the nutrients in berries are to Pokémon.

Chen Qi arrived with great joy.

However, he eventually frowned and stopped in front of the stall.

"This is it? You dare to sell it for 500 yuan a piece?"

"Don't even mention waiting until the sun goes down. In just a couple more rounds, the fruit on your stall should be shriveled up by now."

Chen Qi had not yet spoken.

Then I saw a girl in a green dress with a loose side braid stop in front of the stall, frowning as she spoke to the stall owner.

"Where did this little brat come from?"

Don't you understand the principle that scarcity increases value?

"This is a precious tree fruit that I brought out from the trial with great difficulty."

"Absolutely organic, with the original flavor of tree fruit, and I'm only selling it for 500 yuan a piece, which is quite reasonable." Hearing the girl's words, which were almost like trying to ruin the business, the stall owner got angry.

"Go away, don't disturb my business."

The fruit vendor mistook Chen Qi for the girl's companion and chased them away from the stall.

In this regard.

Chen Qi wasn't too angry, but he was inevitably a little disappointed.

Without exception, all the tree fruits on this stall were somewhat shriveled, clearly indicating severe dehydration due to improper storage.

The nutrients in such tree fruit have probably been largely lost, with less than one in ten remaining.

If this were consumed, not only would it fail to provide the energy needed by the elf's body, but it might also cause stomach upset, which would truly be a loss.

He would never be a sucker.

However, it seems that finding fresh tree fruit will not be an easy task.

After all, trainers who are new to the trial do not have much knowledge about picking and preserving berries. Even if they are lucky enough to obtain some berries from the trial, they may not be able to bring them out of the trial intact.

"Hello there!"

"My name is Shen Qingqing, and I am an intermediate trainer."

Just as Chen Qi was frowning and pondering where to get tree fruit, the girl in the green dress next to him suddenly greeted him in a friendly manner and introduced herself.

Intermediate Trainer.

Upon hearing the other party's introduction, Chen Qi couldn't help but be somewhat surprised.

However, considering the other party's previous performance, it wasn't so surprising anymore.

Someone who knows so much about berries and can clearly judge their condition just by their appearance is definitely not a complete novice trainer.

“I just saw you; you seem quite interested in tree fruits.”

"Are you planning to buy some berries to make energy cubes for your elf?"

"That's right!"

“I do need some tree fruit.” Chen Qi nodded, curiously looking at the girl in front of him.

Since she asked that question, perhaps she knows where to get fresh tree fruit.

"Great!"

A flash of excitement and joy instantly appeared in Shen Qingqing's eyes.

"Oh, no... I mean, that's great! I happen to have some fruit trees at home. If you need any, you can come to my house and pick some."

Seemingly realizing she had been a bit stingy, Shen Qingqing added weakly, "You can pick them as many as you want."

Chen Qi: ? ? ?

I think I've been caught in a pig butchering scam, what should I do? It's urgent, I need help online!

If it weren't for the clear innocence in the girl's eyes, Chen Qi would have really wondered if she came from some kind of fraud ring.

They've got their eyes on him, planning to lure him in with tree fruits.

"Just tell me directly, do you want color or color?" Chen Qi asked bluntly.

"what?"

Shen Qingqing was stunned by the question and shook her head blankly. Then she suddenly realized something and couldn't help but take a few more glances at Chen Qi's rather handsome face.

It certainly has color and appeal...

Ah! That's not right!

Shen Qingqing's pretty face flushed red instantly, and she stammered in defense, "No... I want you..."

Chen Qi: Hmm?

In broad daylight, under the clear sky, how could they be so blatant?

He would never sell his body for mere tree fruit.

However, Shen Qingqing's next words made Chen Qi take a serious look.

"You...the ice...the ice stone on your body."

Having successfully said what she wanted to say completely, Shen Qingqing couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief.

Now, the other party won't misunderstand that she has other ulterior motives, right?

However, she read a more vigilant and wary expression on Chen Qi's face.

This is not what she originally thought.

Chen Qi stared at Shen Qingqing for a long time, his gaze full of scrutiny.

This made Shen Qingqing feel even more guilty.

In the end, Chen Qi chose to ask directly, "How did you know I had the Ice Stone?"

Upon hearing Chen Qi's question, Shen Qingqing, who had been tense, immediately confessed the truth.

He took something out of his pocket.

Chapter 30: The Deal is Made! The Ice Stone is Gone?!

"Because I have it!"

"It told me that!"

Chen Qi raised an eyebrow as he looked at what Shen Qingqing was holding.

"badge?"

He knows this stuff very well.

Because he already had two.

He immediately made the connection: "So it's the special effect of this badge that allows you to find the Ice Stone?"

"what?"

Seeing that Chen Qi knew about the existence of the badge and even immediately pointed out the special effect of the badge in her hand, Shen Qingqing was stunned for a moment again.

However, she quickly realized what was happening, nodded, and took the initiative to speak.

“That’s right, it’s an Ice Stone Badge.”

"Its special effect is that it can detect the location of the Ice Stone within a radius of 100 meters."

"Moreover, the better the quality of the ice stone, the stronger its reaction will be."

"This is the first time I've ever seen an ice stone badge completely solidified, transforming into such a crystal-clear form."

"The ice stone on you must be of very high quality."

"At least of excellent quality... or even... possibly one in ten thousand of the finest quality."

As she spoke, Shen Qingqing's eyes gradually brightened.

Evolution stones can be roughly divided into four categories: common, good, excellent, and top-quality. This classification is based on the purity of the evolution stone and the attribute energy it contains.

While ordinary quality evolution stones are enough to allow certain Pokémon to evolve, this only results in a basic change in appearance and has very limited impact on their stats.

At the very least, it has to be a high-quality evolution stone to improve its stats.

Shen Qingqing had actually collected quite a few high-quality ice stones, but she hadn't used them yet because her Pokémon could only evolve once, and this was a decision that concerned her entire life, so she didn't want to be so hasty.

"Here you go, this is the ice stone you wanted."

Having understood the other party's intention, Chen Qi casually took out the ice stone from his waist bag.

It is crystal clear, like a piece of naturally formed ice crystal jade, with special marks left by the gathering of ice-attribute energy.

Shen Qingqing's eyes lit up immediately.

That’s right!

This is absolutely a top-quality ice stone, and among top-quality stones, it is the absolute best of the best in terms of purity and energy concentration.

"Please, please part with it and sell it to me, okay?"

“I’m willing to offer 150 million, no, 200 million, plus a trial on ice and snow.”

Chen Qi looked at Shen Qingqing's eager face but did not reply immediately.

He had already checked the market price of evolution stones. According to the four quality levels of evolution stones, the price is also divided into four levels: 10 for common, 20 for good, 50 for excellent, and 100 for top quality.

Of course, top-quality evolution stones are extremely rare and often command a premium.

The price of 150 million is almost the ceiling. Being able to offer 200 million means you are definitely rich and have a strong financial background.
