Elven settlers

Chapter 42 The Deal with the Mayor
Compared with the rapid comprehension of Bay Leaf's sword dance skill, the learning speed of another skill, Rock Breaking Art, is much slower, which also makes Rock more sure that his Bay Leaf is talented in "swordsmanship".

So he resolutely adjusted his training plan. After mastering the rock-breaking technique a little, he switched to the practice of Feiye Kuaidao, Inter-joint Slash, and Sword Dance.

"Oh, by the way, I forgot that you can practice the strange power technique now, which is also good for your strength growth."

The increase in attack methods means that there are more skills that need to be practiced.In order not to waste Bay Leaf's talent, Rock intends to develop it in an all-round way, but this has higher requirements for the training plan.

Two days ago, Roque, who still felt that he had made a small achievement, once again devoted himself to a new round of study.

He was going to buy a new dagger in the afternoon, but before he knew it, it was evening.After a day of training exhausted physically and mentally, Rock felt more tired than a day of fighting the bosozoku.

"Mr. Rock, so you are here. I have been looking for you for a long time."

As soon as he walked out of the elf center, Rock was stopped by a familiar voice.

"It's Rui, are you okay?"

The person who came was Mayor Robben's son Rui. Judging from the way the other party was running fast, his injury should be fine.

"Well, I was discharged from the hospital yesterday, but I didn't see you all day yesterday. You had already rested in the evening. I came to invite Mr. Roque to my house for dinner. It's really rude that I didn't thank you personally because of the injury. , That's what my dad meant."

"Okay, let's go straight now."

Rock didn't refuse. He knew that Ruy wanted to thank him on the one hand, and on the other hand, Mayor Robben wanted to talk to him about what happened yesterday.

This is the second time that Rock has come to Robben's house, and the mayor and his wife are still waiting enthusiastically at the door.Compared with the first meal, this time it was more lively because of Rui who had returned home.

During this period, Roque saw Nidorino, who was seriously injured and was on the verge of death. He has now recovered and is running around the bay leaf energetically. It may be caused by the smell of the sickle leaf on the head of the bay leaf.

"Is this the chrysanthemum leaf from before? It has evolved. It's really a beautiful figure. It's the same with that Arbo monster. Mr. Rock really has a way of cultivating elves."

Robben praised, while testing with words.What happened in the Sunshine Town Hospital couldn't be hidden from the other party. After knowing the news that Abo was injured, he still said this in a tactful way to ask Rockfang if it was convenient to talk about the battle that happened yesterday.

Rock understood what he meant, and said generously: "It's all because of their talents, but Arbo was injured in yesterday's battle. If Mayor Robben is interested, I will talk to you in detail after dinner. .”

The dinner carefully prepared by Mrs. Yuzi was still very rich, full of wine and food, Rock and Robben came to the previous study again.As soon as he sat down, he briefly told the other party what happened yesterday.

"In this case, our agreement is considered to be half completed. I think it is almost enough for Mr. Roque to report the truth."

Robben poured Rock a cup of black tea and said.

The agreement he was talking about meant that when Rock came here for the first time, they had a secret conversation in the study.He hinted that he could arrange a "good job" in Sunshine Town for Rock, and wanted the powerful Rock to help him suppress the rampant gangsters.

At that time, Rock hesitated for a long time, but finally refused, but finally reached a secret agreement with Mayor Robben.

The agreement he reached with Mayor Robben is that Rock will help the other party eliminate the gangsters in Sunshine Town, and in return, Robben will use the name of the Sunshine Town government to let Rock He bought a piece of land at a high price and helped him pass the application for a land reclamation certificate.

In the Pokémon world, due to the low population density, the land policy is very loose, but if the area is too large or some resource-rich areas will also be expensive.It is extremely difficult to apply for a wasteland reclamation certificate. Not only does it need to make a huge contribution to the local area, but it also requires strong certification and assessment of various conditions.

With the wasteland reclamation certificate, you can legally own the unowned land you have reclaimed, and you can freely develop and use various resources on your own land.

Such "remuneration" is the result of careful discussions between Rock and Mayor Robben, and it stems from a dream he has always had.

Rock used to have many dreams when he was in school. At that time, he was full of passion and ambition.

But these passions and ideals are slowly worn away by life after going to work.Gradually, he no longer fantasizes all day long, and no longer smiles because of a trivial matter, but the numbness and exhaustion in his eyes are replaced.

Whenever he saw videos of farming and building houses, picnics in the forest, or even simple hiking in the dead of night, he always sighed that this is the real life.

It’s not easy to travel to the world of Pokémon, where there are Pokémon that he has loved since he was a child. He wants to be free to do what he wants to do, to explore this magnificent and wonderful world with his own elves, and to live his ideal life. Life.

He wants to have a piece of land of his own, and he can build as big a house as he wants to live in.Self-reliance in the above, no matter how much effort you put in, you will get as much return, every drop of sweat is for yourself, there is no so-called weekly report, and you don't have to sacrifice your time for any performance appraisal.

Thinking of the reason for the refusal at the time, and the "remuneration" he could get in the end, Rock replied in an unprecedented tone.

"I don't have the habit of doing things halfway, and this time I have a reason to do it. I will not announce what happened yesterday. After all, compared to the local Guangye United, I feel that those guys from outside are more dangerous. , their leader has not appeared so far. And as far as I know, all the recent major attacks were done by the organization called Lie Ri Ji."

Continuing to hide his purpose is to still have some advantages when dealing with another gang of bosozoku gangs in Sunshine Town.After discussing with Robben again, Rock said goodbye and left.

Back at the Sunshine Town Hospital, he first visited Arbor.After one day, its body has almost fully grown, but it still needs some nutrition, so Rock is going to let Arbo stay in the nutrition cabin for another night.

At this time, the door of the duty room opened, and a tall and strong male nurse came out from the inside.

The male nurse was wearing a mask and was a little surprised when he saw Roque.

Rock took the initiative to say hello: "Hi, I'm the trainer of the Arbor monster. Why did you change people here? Where's the female nurse during the day?"

"Oh, you are Mr. Rock, right? The nurse during the day went back to rest, and I am on duty now."

Rock nodded, took another look at Abbe and returned to the room. Unexpectedly, he saw Mayor Robben's secretary Jerry at the door of the room. He asked with some doubts: "What's the matter, Mayor Robben?" Is there a problem?"

Jerry said with a smile: "It's nothing, but Mayor Robben asked me to see if Mr. Rock has come back smoothly. After all, the law and order has not been very good at night recently. You can rest, I will go first."
