The Age of Elves starts with a master ball

Another morning.

Lu Fan, who had just climbed out of the tent, stretched hard and yawned.

"I still can't get used to sleeping in this tent. It seems that the small world's house construction plan should start soon."

Lu Fan thought firmly as he looked at the two cubs who also didn't get a good rest last night.

Because they were camping in the wild, Pikachu and Gouzi had no choice but to skip the night watch.

After all, the dangers in the wild are not just elves, but some elf hunters and players lurking in the night are sometimes even greater threats.

Walking along Route 3 until noon, we no longer see lush forests in front of us, but increasingly open hilly terrain.

The one-horned green caterpillars gradually became scarce along the way, while the number of small fist stones and gopher elves increased significantly.

"Can it be said that highly qualified elves can only be found deep in the wild?"

Lu Fan had great doubts about this.

No wonder Lu Fan feels this way.

It is true that the rare elves encountered along the way are very rare, let alone the elves with higher qualifications.

Looking at the hills that slightly revealed the empty terrain, Lu Fan also admired the uncanny craftsmanship of nature.

"According to the original work, this area should be the gopher hole in the original work, but it should be the reason why players enter the world. The entire entrance of the gopher hole has expanded several times in size."

Gradually walking into the hills, Lu Fan also gradually discovered the huge flow of people here.

Relying on the rich mineral resources around the entire gopher hole, there are obviously many more players and NPCs here.

The open space below the hills was also filled with many stalls.

Some sell strange ores, and others sell some cave exploration tools and mining tools.

It can be said that basically everyone is alive.

Players gathered in a bustling group, some were mining, and some were exchanging collected stones with each other, hoping to bet on stones to find an ancient elf fossil.

What's more, some even bought professional detection equipment to pan for gold here!

Lu Fan was speechless at the scene. He didn't know whether this place produced gold or not. Even if there was gold, it would have been mined by someone long ago.

However, Lu Fan clearly noticed a different group of players here.

This group of players uniformly wore black tights with the word "R" printed on them, a scarf on their heads, and a Poké Ball tied around their waists.

The position of the binding is very obvious, and it is not difficult to see that it is purely for show.

Lu Fan could tell at a glance that the uniforms worn by these players were Team Rocket uniforms.

After all, in the original work, this costume is basically the standard equipment for Team Rocket cannon fodder.

However, these guys are indeed too eye-catching, and when the surrounding players see them, they will start to gather around and whisper.

The eyes of envy, jealousy, or adoration met on these players wearing R-shaped tights.

The player in the front wearing the Team Rocket uniform looked at the expressions of the people around him, and seemed to be very satisfied with the expressions of envy or admiration from others. Then he coughed and shouted: "Introduce yourself, I am the second-in-command of ID Ten Years Ape, sincerely." Invite all players to join our Rockets family. Our Rockets offer generous benefits, never 996, free life accident insurance, and free elves when you join the team. The quota is limited to 300 people, first come, first served!"

As soon as the words came out, the players gathered around immediately exploded.

"Holy crap! Is this such a good thing? Choose me, choose me, I'm good at my craftsmanship!"

"Don't be too crowded. In real life, my eldest brother is Brother Chen, the Ax Gang. I have the potential to be a villain since I was a child!"

"Brother Chen is great? Want to know more about Chen Haonan of Sanlitun?"

"Speaking of which, if I join the organization, quit the organization, and then join the organization again, can I get the elf twice! (Funny)"

"Ning Fang upstairs has this bug."

"Upstairs, I don't know if you can get the elves twice, but you must have two big mouths."

It’s too wild to see a group of players like tigers and wolves in front of you!

Seeing the enthusiastic scene of the players in front of him, Lu Fan deeply felt the loneliness and depression of being unable to integrate into this world.

Sure enough, people's joys and sorrows are not the same.

"Life is really lonely like snow."

Lu Fan put his hands behind his back, raised his head slightly to look at the sky and couldn't help but sigh.

The dog on the side said that he was shocked again and again for a whole year!

Although I don’t quite understand it, what is this sudden loneliness and loneliness? ?

Seeing such a scene, Lu Fan actually didn't feel anything at all.

Team Rocket, villain?

Alliance, Justice?

Lu Fan felt that none of this mattered.

There are people in the Rockets who are warm-hearted and kind-hearted, and there are also people in the league who are not superficial either inside or outside.

Lu Fan never thought about joining a certain force or relying on others. After all, only by becoming stronger can he truly control his destiny.

Suddenly, Lu Fan noticed an inconspicuous small stall next to him. The stall was filled with some strange-shaped ores and mining tools.

Lu Fan walked up the stall and bowed slightly to see the face of the stall owner clearly.

An old man with a sallow complexion and a tired face was still wearing the work clothes used in the mine.

However, it seems that the clothes have been worn for a long time, and they are covered with large and small patches.

The old man seemed to have been concentrating with his eyes closed just now. It was not until he realized that the sunlight shining on his face was blocked that he slowly woke up.

"Young man, do you need anything?"

The old man suddenly looked up at Lu Fan, and a hoarse voice came from his dry mouth.

"Nothing, just to see how these ores are sold."

Lu Fan then used his mouth to nuzzle the scattered piles of ore on the stall.

The old man inadvertently looked at Lu Fan in front of him and then at the Kati dog at Lu Fan's feet, and then said firmly: "50 alliance coins each, if you take it all, I will consider it cheaper for you, these dozen pieces of ore In addition, the mining pick over there is given to you, and it only costs 500 alliance coins."

Seeing that the old man obviously wanted to slaughter the fat sheep, Lu Fan didn't criticize it and just smiled slightly.

"Old man, I'll take care of all your ore. In addition, I'll give you 500 alliance coins. How about you take me down to the gopher hole."

Lu Fan's voice was quite loud at first, but the subsequent sounds became inaudible.

It can be clearly felt that Lu Fan is asking in a suppressed voice.

Although his voice was as soft as a mosquito's moan, it was still keenly captured by the old man in front of him who seemed to have already half-stepped into the coffin.

The old man's eyes suddenly widened and he looked closely at the young man in front of him.

Then the corners of his eyes dropped, and he said in a slightly mocking tone: "Young man, you don't want your life, but you still want to go down the cave? I don't say whether this landslide can kill you, but just the little elves in the underground are enough for you to eat." .”

The old man waved his hands quickly, showing his disdain.

However, Lu Fan did not refute at this time, but took out a stack of alliance coins from his bag, which was as much as 2000 alliance coins.

The old man's eyes, who had been completely indifferent just now, suddenly widened, and his throat that kept swallowing saliva highlighted that the old man was not at peace at this time.

"Two thousand alliance coins is not much. I don't believe you are the only one who can go down in such a big gopher hole camp."

Lu Fan shook the alliance coin in his hand and pretended to leave, but unexpectedly the old man grabbed him by the corner of his clothes.

"Okay, you win, tell me what the purpose is."

The old man sighed deeply. As if he had made up his mind.

After saying this, the old man fixed his eyes tightly on Lu Fan in front of him.

After all, he had been in Gopher Cave for so many years and encountered so many travelers and merchants. The old man had already developed a keen sense of observation.

If nothing else, you can tell from the katy dog ​​at your feet that it either belongs to the Junsha family or has some connection with the Junsha family.

The young man in front of him must not be simple. He couldn't have come to the mine to make money by digging some precious ores.

When he was young, the old man was considered a figure in Huangtu Town, so he was not so blind.

This Cady dog ​​is the most beautiful one the old man has ever seen in his life.

Obviously Lu Fan also saw the old man's misunderstanding of him, but he had no intention of explaining it.

"I need some elves with excellent qualifications, but I can't seem to find them on the surface. I'd like to ask an old man to help guide them."

Listening to Lu Fan's words, the old man gradually understood Lu Fan's true purpose.

"Of course, it's very simple. As long as you take me away from the territory of those lord-level elves, I will take care of the rest."

Lu Fan smiled slightly, then waited for the old man's answer.

Of course, the lord level here is not too strict. Anyone with excellent qualifications, as high as king or champion qualifications may be considered a lord level elf.

Most of the lord elves have a very strong sense of territory. Once a creature different from their own group exists in their territory, they will usually destroy it directly.

So this is why Lu Fan really needs a cave guide.

After hearing this, the old man didn't say a few words. He just muttered a few words casually: "Prepare the rope and searchlight yourself." Then he turned around to pack his luggage.

Hearing this, the corners of Lu Fan's mouth slightly raised. He grabbed some tools he needed and followed the old man to a small hill on the edge of the hill where the gopher hole evolved.

Then the old man suddenly threw an elf ball from his pocket and threw it in the direction of the mountain.

"Come out, Three Gophers!"

A flash of red light flashed, and three elves with connected gopher heads appeared on the ground instantly.

Three cylindrical mole heads suddenly poked out of the ground.

He didn't look very smart, looking around at the stranger Lu Fan.

Speaking of which, in the previous life on Earth, Lu Fan had always wondered what the lower body of the Pokémon Pokémon looked like.

After all, in the original work, little elves like gophers never emerged from the ground.

But since arriving in this elven world, Lu Fan finally found the answer.

Lu Fan once tried to pull some wild gophers out of the ground on the roadside.

How to put it, Lu Fan always felt that it was difficult to describe it in one word. If he had to use something to describe it, it would be similar to the feeling of the red-nosed mouse hoeing the earth in Moore Manor.

"Three gophers, use Drill Hole."

Before the three gophers could finish sizing up Lu Fan, they burrowed directly into the ground and crashed into a stone wall in the earth bag.

Unexpectedly, the seemingly extremely hard stone wall suddenly shattered, revealing a secret passage that could be entered by two or three people at the same time.

"As expected of a professional."

Lu Fan couldn't help but sigh secretly.

The old man looked at Lu Fan, stepped forward and stretched out his hand.

"Qingtian Longyi, from Huangtu Town, happy to work with you."

Seeing the old man's actions, Lu Fan did not refute the old man's dignity and stepped forward to shake hands.

"Lu Fan, Zhenxin Town trainer, happy to work with you"

Seeing that Lu Fan did not look down on him because of the tatters of his clothes, the old man also smiled slightly.

He turned around and walked into the deep and dark passage.

There was silence in the dark tunnel.

The darkness ahead seemed to be able to swallow everything. Only the light of the searchlight in the invisible cave made it appear that there was still some life in it.

The three rats leading the way were also constantly sniffing left and right, always paying attention to whether there would be a danger of landslides here.

There was silence all the way. Lu Fan and Qingtian Longyi didn't have much communication along the way.

Almost halfway through the journey, the old man Qingtian was the first to break the silence.

"Brother Lu, how did you find out that I can explore caves? I don't think I have any flaws."

Qingtian turned his eyes and looked at Lu Fan's young but delicate face under the lamp, his words full of curiosity.

Lu Fan heard Qingtian's question but did not respond.

He just took out the ore he bought from a street stall in Qingtian from his backpack.

There was no problem with the ore when it was on the surface at first, but after Lu Fan wiped it and shined it under the strong light of a searchlight, the slightly shining yellow-green light in the ore also appeared.

"This is? Thunder Stone?"

Qingtian's expression was obviously stunned, and then he shook his head helplessly.

"It seems that I really suffered a loss this time. I didn't expect to meet an expert."

Qingtian finally understood the reason. The thunder stone had to be mined at least twenty or thirty meters underground. He didn't expect that he had made such a low-level mistake.

Looking at Qingtian's deflated expression, Lu Fan couldn't help but feel a little embarrassed.

Although the thunder stone in my hand is small in size, it is indeed valuable.

You know, the price of ordinary small evolution stones in the alliance store is more than 5000 to 10000 alliance coins.

"That's all, this is a lesson. I will be more careful in the future."

Mr. Qingtian was open-minded, and after a while he no longer cared about the profit or loss of this thunder stone.

"Old man, have you lived in the camp near the gopher hole since you were a child?"

Lu Fan asked, one after another.

"It doesn't count. When I was young, I also worked as the leader of the steel processing team in Huangtu Town for a period of time, but later..."

Qingtian stopped talking at this point.

Seeing Qingtian's hesitant look, Lu Fan knew better and stopped asking any more questions.

After walking for an unknown amount of time, this deep and dark cave finally came to the edge of a large underground open space.

Beside the lake in the middle of the clearing, the number of elves has obviously increased.

Three or two gophers were slowly drinking water by the lake. Occasionally, a few supersonic bats flapped their wings slightly on the rock wall, and a few small fist stones were wandering aimlessly.

The richness of life here is in sharp contrast to the deep and dark cave just now.

Seeing such a scene, Lu Fan couldn't help but sigh.

"This gopher hole is really unique."

Before Lu Fan could finish his sigh, Qingtian Longyi on the side thrust a map into Lu Fan's hand.

Lu Fan looked at it intently and was stunned for a moment.

The intricate underground caves on the map are connected everywhere, forming a huge underground maze.

The various areas above even carefully marked the territories of nearby lord-level elves and some geographical locations prone to landslides.

The level of detail is outrageous!

"Don't go to the dangerous areas for lord elves marked on this map. Just explore around the green and safe areas. If you're lucky, there will be elves with excellent qualifications. I'm waiting for you here. Go and come back quickly!"

After hearing this, Lu Fan immediately stopped wasting time, called to the dog behind him, and went straight into the entire gopher cave.

“According to what is marked on the map, there is a Big Mouth Bat Territory with at least legendary qualifications under this cave, and nearby are the Rumbling Rock Territory and Chuanshan King Territory with unknown qualifications.

There are question marks going deeper, and it is probably a restricted area that even experienced caving experts like Qingtian would not dare to venture into. "

Just when Lu Fan was minding his own thoughts, a cold system electronic female voice coincidentally sounded from Lu Fan's mind.

The system's random mission has been released: Please explore the gopher cave according to the system's guidance, find the target elf, defeat or capture it!

Rewards: One low-level and one intermediate lottery!

Before Lu Fan could recover from the system task, a blue light suddenly emerged from Lu Fan's mind, as if guiding something, and he kept thinking about an area and moving slowly.

Lu Fan happened to notice this when he regained consciousness.

"I'm sorry, what's going on! This system won't guide me to defeat a lord-level elf! God bless you, the mighty dragon, the secret treasure of divine punishment! Don't really ask me to say it accurately."

Lu Fan could only comfort himself at this time and followed the direction guided by the system.

It is impossible to give up. It is impossible to give up in this life.

The value of the mid-level lottery and low-level lottery is still worth letting Lu Fan take the risk.

But at this moment, the outside world is already changing.

Inside the Zhao family's residence in Yanjing.

There were several soldiers in casual clothes in the lobby, but their every move and gesture had the aura of experienced military soldiers sitting around.

The crowd was surrounding a little girl of eighteen or nineteen years old, and the leader of the soldiers was a woman. Her hot and muscular body, coupled with her huge body tightly restrained by formal clothes, would make any woman uncomfortable. All seemed eclipsed.

However, if you can pay attention to the majestic expression on the woman's face, you won't be able to have even the slightest thought about her.

The woman's name is Zhao Yinghao, which is quite masculine.

Her current identity is that of the leader of the third investigation team of the Chinese Special Security Department.

Sitting opposite Zhao Yinghao, someone who was 78% similar to him was Zhao Yinghao's younger sister, Zhao Zixi.

If Lu Fan were here, he would definitely recognize that the Zhao Zixi in front of him was the girl who worked as a wage earner at Dr. Omu's house.

"Zixi, is there anything you missed, such as his behavioral habits, or did he say where he is about to go?"

Zhao Yinghao kept questioning his sister, hoping to get any more useful clues from me.

The girl named Zhao Zixi in front of her was obviously annoyed by the question, and said angrily: "I've told you everything I can tell you. Except for the surname Lu, I don't know anything else."

Seeing his sister's helpless expression and answer, Zhao Yinghao had no choice but to give up questioning.

Suddenly, a soldier in military uniform came in from outside the door and came to report. The soldier came close to Zhao Yinghao's ear and began to whisper in a low voice.

"Team leader, based on Miss Zhao's description of appearance and figure, we have not found a group of people whose faces are similar enough, even with the surname Lu.

The database still cannot be determined. It is probably an issue with the facial fine-tuning function that comes with the game. "

After hearing the report from his subordinates, Zhao Yinghao couldn't help but slowly clenched his fists with his hands, feeling extremely anxious.

You know, Director Yang above has given a death order to recruit this ordinary Mr. Lu, who is all-powerful in the game, no matter what.

Even if they cannot be recruited, they must not be found by those foreign mercenary organizations.

After all, no one in the entire game knows the name of an ordinary person. It is unknown how many pairs of eyes are looking for him, overtly or covertly.

At this moment, Lu Fan, who was completely unaware and uncaring about the outside world, was walking around in the cave. The caves are as complex as coiled snakes.

At first, Lu Fan was okay and could identify his location through the map, but as he walked slowly, he realized that he seemed to have left the scope of the entire map.

Seeing the road under his feet becoming more and more bumpy and winding, Lu Fan had a bad feeling.

"Gouzi, can you still remember the way back?"

Lu Fan glanced at the kadi dog beside him. After all, the dog was the top elf in the detective type.

Now that I have lost my way, I can only leave the hope of leaving to Gouzi.

Unexpectedly, Gouzi shook his head helplessly.

"Ouch~" means that I remember the general direction, but the way back is

Gouzi expressed that he was feeling bitter, but Gouzi didn't say anything.

Seeing the sad little expression of the dog, Lu Fan could only touch the dog's head to express comfort.

Lu Fan made many twists and turns along the way. He didn't know how long he had walked, but he couldn't see the huge cave at a glance.

It was as if time had no concept at all in this cave.

Just when Lu Fan was about to fall down due to fatigue after walking all the way, the blue light pointing in the direction of the system suddenly stopped and pointed faintly forward.

Seeing this, Lu Fan couldn't help but be overjoyed.

"Niang Xipi, we finally reached the place. If we keep walking for a while, it will be different whether I can get out or not."

But before Lu Fan's excitement could burst out, he was shocked again by the sight in front of him!

The faint blue light appears so bright in the cave, and the colorful crystals scattered everywhere in the cave are reflecting their own unique light.

The cave that was lifeless just now was instantly replaced by colorful lights, like a fairyland on earth.

"Ow!"

Obviously this shocked Gou Zi. Gou Zi said that he had never seen so many crystals and such a huge scene in his life.

Even Pikachu, who had been living as an otaku in the Poké Ball, couldn't help but jump out of the World Ball and looked at the dreamy scene in front of him, with brilliant stars blooming in his eyes.

At this moment, Lu Fan only cares about one thing, and that is getting rich!

You know, in the elven world, the value of crystal is the same as gold.

Even crystals of good quality and free of impurities are worth more than gold.

Whether it is used to make tools or decorations for the upper class, this is a highly profitable business.

"Dear me, at first glance, there are probably more than ten tons of crystals here. If we can mine them all, why don't we take off on the spot?"

At this moment, Lu Fan has begun to daydream about his dream of getting rich in the future.

However, Lu Fan currently has a lot of wealth. There are still more than 50 alliance coins rewarded by the two server-wide announcements. But who cares about more and more money?

Just when Lu Fan was thinking about a bright future, a roar came from the depths of the crystal cave!

"Roar!"

The sound was so loud that it shook the entire cave, and countless small stones fell from the rock wall.

Cady Dog and Pikachu were instantly alert.

Looking fearfully into the depths of the cave.

Lu Fan could also clearly feel the uneasiness and tension in his elf's heart.

"With such strong pressure, it seems that the qualifications of the target of this system are no less than that of Api and Gouzi."

Lu Fan tensed up and stared straight ahead.

After a while, bursts of sounds of huge objects rubbing against the earth came from the cave.

It's like a prehistoric beast suddenly awakening, which can't help but scare people.

Listening to the approaching friction sound, Lu Fan couldn't help but feel his throat twitching.

Gradually, larger and larger bodies emerged from the dark cave. A huge and beautiful powerful body, six or seven meters high!

The body is connected by round boulders, giving the whole body a serpentine shape.

It seemed that someone had disturbed his sleep, and the eyes on his head were filled with anger and violence.

The blue body has an inexplicable sense of beauty.

But at this time, Lu Fan was not in the mood to take a good look at the giant blue beast in front of him. Looking at the introduction in the illustrated book, coupled with the original Pokémon he had seen in his previous life, he couldn't help but take a breath.

Pokémon name: Rock Snake (Crystal Sparkle variant)

Qualification: Legend level (adult age)

Introduction to Pokémon: Because the Crystal Land in existence is increasingly transformed by crystal elements, the genetic sequence has undergone tremendous changes.

Attribute: Rock/Ice

"System! This is the mission goal you gave me! Are you kidding me!"

Lu Fan said that he never expected this wave of events.

But complaining is of no use, so now I can only bite the bullet.
