Elf Tomb Raider

Chapter 10 Ancient Energy
The next morning, Father Jiang woke up. Although the wound on his body was still swollen, his back was aching, and his head was swollen, he was able to walk on the ground. He estimated that he would be able to work in the orchard after a few days of recovery.

During lunch, Jiang Sheng specially introduced Dai Rubi to his parents. As for Dai Rubi's origin, of course Mr. Zhao was responsible.

Jiang Sheng told his parents that his tablemate gave this Dai Ruby, but he didn't want it, but who knows when the tablemate shrunk the poke ball and hid it in his schoolbag. He only found out yesterday morning when he was packing his schoolbag after his father left.

Fortunately, with this Dai Rubi, the father was rescued from the cave in time, and no tragedy happened.

Therefore, Jiang Sheng decided not to return this Dai Rubi, and he will find a way to compensate his tablemate when he has the opportunity.

Jiang Zheng also talked about his experience yesterday. First, he was chased by the Arbor snake, then escaped with great difficulty with the help of coyotes, and then fell into the valley of the orb silk spider. Fortunately, he was rescued by kapok balls and hid in the cave.

Speaking of that cave, Jiang Zheng was excited. He remembered the extraordinaryness of that egg. Those orb silk spiders were both eager and afraid. Faced with the coercion in the egg, they dared not step into the cave, which saved his life.

Speaking of this, Jiang Ma couldn't make a sound, and the husband and wife were almost separated.

Jiang's father hurried to comfort him again, and when Jiang's mother calmed down, he asked Jiang Sheng if he had seen the egg when he rescued him.

If that egg is hatched, as the initial Pokémon, the trainer's path will have a bright future, and this Dai Ruby can also be returned to others.

After all, Pokémon are luxury items, how could they receive such great favors for no reason.

As for the Vulcan moth's egg, Jiang Sheng simply mentioned it to his father, saying that it was finally taken away by the official people, and the official person gave him a bottle of antidote before leaving. If it wasn't for that bottle of antidote, you might not be able to save it.

"Good man! Xiao Sheng, when you see that official in the future, remember to repay him."

Jiang Zheng said with emotion, his somber temperament, as if after experiencing life and death, the whole person's spiritual realm has been sublimated.

Jiang Sheng shrugged helplessly. After Mr. Zhao, Mr. Wang succeeded in taking over the pot. He is really a good man!
"Xiao Sheng, why don't you use this guy as your initial Pokémon, and return that Dai Ruby, after all, it's quite precious."

Jiang Zheng grabbed the cotton ball floating around him and gently squeezed it.

For some reason, this kapok ball came back with Jiang Sheng yesterday, and even entangled Jiang's father, unwilling to leave for a moment, which made Jiang's mother jealous for a while, and secretly called it a little fairy.

"Snoring...snoring..."

The furious voice that was suppressed by all means finally rang out from the living room. Behind Father Jiang, a black dog was lying on the ground, grinning hard against the floor tiles.

Sometimes it would pretend to be inadvertent and glance at Papa Jiang's back. The resentful look in his eyes made Papa Jiang feel a chill in his back from time to time.

De Ruby: Bad old man, so bad, you actually want to send me away, you wait for me, your family is gone!
Father Jiang turned his head and looked at Dai Rubi, the fierce look in his eyes made Father Jiang have no choice but to smile embarrassingly.

"De Rubi is very good at making the initial Pokémon. After a few days, when my injury is healed, I will release this kapok ball."

"Mianmianjiu... Mianmianjiu!"

As soon as he heard that he was going to chase him away, Kapok Ball became anxious immediately, and a pair of leaf-shaped wings fluttered in front of Dad Jiang, hoping that Dad Jiang would keep him for the sake of being cute and sensible.

De Ruby snorted coldly behind Papa Jiang's back: You're smart!

At the same time, it took a disdainful look at the nervous kapok ball: It's shameful to be cute, only the strong can be the final winner, and only the strong can stay in this home!

"Dad, the kapok ball is not suitable for the initial Pokémon. Its evolution needs the sun stone, and all kinds of evolution stones are very scarce."

Jiang Sheng explained the reason for rejecting the kapok ball as the initial Pokémon.

The kapok ball turned its head and glared at Jiang Sheng. It panicked even more at this moment. It really wanted to stay by Jiang Zheng's side.

"but…"

Jiang Sheng changed the topic.

"Let's keep it. Grass-type Pokémon are easy to feed, and it's not bad at home, and this guy has growth skills. With his help, the orange fruit trees in our orchard should be able to grow very well."

"By the way, if it becomes more powerful, maybe it can help us cultivate peach trees!"

"is it?"

Jiang Zheng looked excited, the value of Taotao fruit was much higher than that of oranges.

If peach trees can really grow in the orchard, then the family will be able to give Jiang Sheng more money in the future, and his journey as a trainer will be easier.

It's a pity that the growing conditions of peach and fruit trees are too harsh. In the same village, only Uncle Zhang's family has an old tree, which has been taken care of by his family's stinky flowers.

"Then listen to you and keep it. I'm mainly afraid that it won't be used to living with humans."

"Mianmianjiu!"

The kapok ball quickly shook his head, saying that it would not, it would definitely get used to living with everyone.

Sexy cotton balls, humble online!
Life is not easy, Mengqiu sighs!
From today onwards, Dai Rubi and Kapok Ball officially become Jiang Sheng's family members, together with the coyotes, they are also called "the three little ones in the orchard"!
Jiang Sheng pretended not to see Dai Rubi's protesting eyes, and directly decided on the title of street attack.

……

Back in the room, Jiang Sheng carefully recalled the three battles Dai Rubi experienced yesterday, and carefully wrote down the details of the battles.

As a trainer, you must learn to find and analyze problems in battle, and carry out intensive training for your Pokémon based on these problems to help it become stronger.

Now, Dai Rubi is still young, and there are many problems, Jiang Sheng is going to pick some important ones to solve first.

First of all, it is the issue of Derby's attribute restraint!
Yesterday I played against Cocoa Dora. If it wasn't for Cocoa Dora's steel armor and explosive thermal conductivity, it would be difficult for Dai Ruby to win with a Pokémon with a rocky body surface such as a small fist stone.

Judging from the combination of Deluby's attributes, there are four types of Pokémon that can restrain it: fighting, ground, rock, and water. Jiang Sheng must find a way to make it have good countermeasures when facing these four types of Pokémon.

"Fighting is fine, there is no good countermeasure. After putting on the burn state, let's attack directly with fire skills."

"As for the remaining three elements, it would be great if Deluby had grass-type skills. In other words, Deluby should be able to learn the sun beam, but this kind of ultimate skill is not something that everyone knows, and everyone is willing to pass it on to others..."

After thinking for a long time, Jiang Sheng scratched his head helplessly and gave up thinking.

This problem can't be solved, pass, next one!
The second is the food problem of Deluby. It is impossible to let Deluby eat oranges and oranges all the time, which is not good for its growth.

The promotion of Pokémon's level requires not only rich combat experience, but also superb attribute control and tyrannical physique.

The latter two points must be achieved by eating and exercising, and it is still "seven points for eating and three points for training". "Eating" plays an important role in the growth of Pokémon.

Thinking of this, Jiang Sheng couldn't help but think of the energy cubes, which are food for elves in Pokémon anime and games.

However, this parallel world does not point out the technology tree of energy cubes, but it has made great achievements in other directions.

For example, the alchemy of the East Asian Alliance is similar to the energy cube. The nutritional pills made with unique formula and first-hand fire refining technology are very popular all over the world.

In addition, the nutritional soup of the European Union, the genetic potion of the Freedom Alliance, and some nutritional items with unique flavors made by the Minor League are all substitutes for energy cubes.

Of course, the price is definitely not cheap. Every trainer has to spend a lot of money on Pokémon food every year.

"I wonder if Goldfinger can get energy cubes?"

With a thought, Jiang Sheng acted immediately, opened the [Replacement] interface, and immediately made a wish: "I want a box of energy cubes!"

A window popped up, and the product list appeared as expected, but it was not the energy cube that Jiang Sheng wanted.

The first row is the energy cube maker (home version), which requires 500 energy value, and there are medium-sized energy cube maker and large energy cube maker below, which are 1000 energy value and 2000 energy value respectively.

Underneath is actually the energy cube formula, each energy cube formula has different effects, which makes Jiang Sheng very greedy.

However, he can only be greedy, the price of each formula is very expensive, and he cannot afford it.

The cheapest formula in the formula is a panacea formula, and the note next to it says it is suitable for all Pokémon, the taste can be adjusted by yourself, and the energy value is 1000 per serving.

Jiang Sheng looked at his balance, and it happened to be able to buy a recipe and a home version of the energy cube maker.

After thinking about it, Jiang Sheng still didn't make up his mind to buy it.

He turned on his phone, went to the shopping website, and looked for products related to Pokémon food.

Afterwards, Jiang Sheng placed an order at the world-renowned store--Spirit Hall, a high-quality fire-attribute Pokémon primary nutrition pill that can last for ten days. He spent a total of 5000 Union Coins, which is 1/30 of all his belongings!

Before he figured out how to get the energy value, he thought it would be better to spend his own money, after all, money is renewable in a certain sense.

"It's time to think about how the energy value is generated..."

Jiang Sheng muttered to himself, and began to recall the moments before and after the golden finger was activated, to see if anything special happened.

"If it wasn't brought from the beginning, then it is most likely brought by the stone pendant. There must be something special about it. Even if it is not entirely the reason, it must account for half of it. Otherwise, how could the golden finger that has been silent for 16 years be activated?"

"Pendant... pendant... pendant..."

Jiang Sheng frowned, and kept writing and drawing on the draft paper with a pen to find key points.

"Unknown stone?"

"Unknown energy?"

"old stuff?"

"Or……"

"An ancient relic with unknown energy?"

Jiang Sheng's eyes lit up with the last answer, and he quickly thought about whether there were any items that met the requirements in his home, and prepared to try it out.

"By the way, ancient coins. There are some ancient coins at home. Go and try to see if the symbols meet the requirements."

Finally, after rummaging through boxes and cabinets, Jiang Sheng found a string of round coins with square holes threaded in a broken cabinet in the thatched shed.

Jiang Sheng could feel that the birthmark on his wrist did respond to this string of coins, but it was not very violent.

Maybe there is not much energy contained in the coin?
Most of this string of coins were issued 200 years ago, when the East Asian Union was still in the dynasty era.

Take out one and put it on the birthmark, the covered skin is heated, a clear stream seeps into the skin, and the coin immediately becomes blurred, like a piece of rusty ordinary copper.

Opening the main interface, Jiang Sheng found that the energy value in the upper right corner has now been rounded up from the previous "1598" to "1600"!
A 200-year-old coin has only increased by two points?
The previous pendant was directly the "2000" point. Could it be that the pendant has a history of 20 years?
No!Certainly not the calculation!

It should not only be based on the age, there should be other factors that determine the amount of energy, but Jiang Sheng doesn't know it for the time being.

But he has found a way to increase the energy value, Jiang Sheng is not going to study it in detail for the time being, and will study it later.

He directly sacrificed this string of coins to his own birthmark, adding a total of 91 energy points, including a Kaiyuan Tongbao, which contributed 13 energy points.

That is an ancient coin from more than 300 years ago, how could it have added such a little energy value?
Jiang Sheng suddenly felt that he might never get the good things in [Replacement] in his life!
For convenience, Jiang Sheng gave the energy stored in coins an easy-to-understand name, calling them "ancient energy"!
Looking at the broken copper pieces all over the floor, Jiang Sheng gradually fell into deep thought.

Antique = ancient energy!

Could it be that he will become a grave robber in the future...

The matter of ancient energy has come to an end for the time being, and he still has more important things to do at this stage.

……

In the afternoon, Jiang Sheng logged on to the official website of Liao Province No. [-] Trainer High School. A few days ago, Jiang Sheng had clicked on the confirmation message sent by the school to sign up for this summer's entrance exam.

After signing up, he still needs to complete his information on the website and wait for the other party to assign him an examination room.

At the same time, he also heard that this year's exam rules and exam format have been finalized, so he just checked it out and prepared early.

Information registration is very easy, and all registrations are completed in a short while. The system shows that the registration is successful, and the allocation of test centers is being coordinated.

Taking advantage of this opportunity, Jiang Sheng opened the exam notes and checked carefully. As in previous years, the entrance exam is divided into two parts, the first part is the written test, and the second part is the practical test.

According to the difficulty of each year, the written test is quite satisfactory, and the difficulty is slightly lower. For the students of the key middle schools in the city, they can pass the test with a score in the middle.

It is more difficult for junior high schools in the county, but the top 40% of the class can probably pass the exam.

Without him, the level of education varies greatly.

Jiang Sheng can be regarded as a not-so-prominent top student, so there is no need to worry about the first part of the written test, and he can pass it directly without reviewing.

The introduction of the first part of the written test was hastily skipped, and Jiang Sheng directly checked the second part of the practical test. After reading the evaluation rules, Jiang Sheng's head grew bigger and he shouted abnormal.

This year's practice test mode is not new, and this assessment mode has also been adopted in the past. This mode has a very high failure rate, and is called "the battle of the peak".

The mode requires candidates to fight against other types of Pokémon other than their initial Pokémon attributes. Only when the winning rate reaches 70% or more can they pass.

Take Deluby as an example, the four elements of ground, fighting, rock, and water will cause outstanding damage to Deluby.

Therefore, in the assessment, Jiang Sheng needs to take Dai Rubi to fight against other 70-type Pokémon besides these four types. Based on a [-]% winning rate, Jiang Sheng needs to win ten games to pass the assessment.

Of course, for the sake of the Pokémon's body, the battle mode is not Lian Zhan, as long as all the battles are completed within three days and the winning rate meets the requirements, it will pass the assessment.

"Fourteen matches? I'm really throwing up!"

Jiang Sheng was powerless to complain. If he wanted to enter Liao Province No. [-] Trainer High School, he had to follow other people's rules. No matter how much he complained, it was useless.

Turning to the last page of the exam instructions, Jiang Sheng's eyes lit up with the notes marked in red, and he made a decision in his heart.

　Please recommend tickets, brothers and sisters!
