The Elf begins with an insect-catching boy

The flying mantis has a reptile-like head with three separate horns. The scythes on both arms are as sharp as magic weapons. He has two pairs of small wings, but only uses them to fly on rare occasions. The thighs are full of sharp edges and corners, and each of the feet has three toes with sharp claws. The female flying mantis has a larger abdomen.

The face of the one that Xiaopeng saw could be seen from the hardships it had experienced in its youth. The entire Pokémon looked like it had an old age, and the muscles on its body had become less strong.

Looking at the qualifications, they were average after all. Xiaopeng sighed and said, "Hey, this one is not very good, but you can capture it and give it to Apollo. The points of the Flying Mantis are quite high."

Orb and Zoro also saw that this flying mantis was old and of little use, but it was a good choice to hand it over to Apollo.

Immediately, everyone started to fight. The level of this flying mantis was not low, reaching professional level (level 42). However, after the battle, it was found that its combat effectiveness was not as good as that of the senior level. Everyone easily defeated it and subdued it.

Xiaopeng looked at the elf ball in his hand and said, "This should be an old flying mantis abandoned by the tribe, which means that its tribe may not be far away. Let's keep working hard and don't give up."

Zoro patted his chest and said, "Don't worry, Xiaopeng, I will definitely help you find the traces of the Flying Mantis."

Xiaopeng and the others continued yesterday's operations, releasing flying Pokémon to search, while Zoro operated a drone to fly high in the sky for reconnaissance.

Time passes slowly.

Suddenly, Solo shouted, "Xiaopeng, come over and take a look, I found some traces."

Xiaopeng quickly moved closer to Zoro, and Uub was not to be outdone. The two of them moved closer to Zoro, one on the left and the other on the right. They looked at the screen in Zoro's hand and saw an open space on the screen. It was not that kind of space. Natural open spaces are open spaces that appear after trees are cut down.

Xiaopeng said, "Solo, fly closer and let me take a look."

Flying Mantis is a social Pokémon that will abandon the old and the weak. When Flying Mantis was young, it lived in groups and practiced fighting with a scythe and moving at high speeds. If you find a large number of trees cut down somewhere in the forest, it means that that place is the territory of the Flying Praying Mantis. This is the information about the Flying Mantis in Xiaopeng's memories.

After the drone flew closer, Xiaopeng carefully observed the parts of the tree that were cut down. It was indeed cut by a sharp weapon. There were various cuts in other parts. This should have been cut down by a Pokémon with sharp blades after training. trees.

Looking at the parts where the trees were cut down, there are no traces of the trees that have been cut down for many days. They are still relatively new, indicating that they have not been gone for a long time and are most likely still nearby.

Xiaopeng immediately shouted, "Quick, everyone go to that location to search. There is a high probability that the Flying Mantis group is nearby."

With that said, he began to gather the Pokémon for flying reconnaissance, and waited until the Pokémon were gathered.

Zoro said, "Come on."

With that said, he took the lead and ran towards the place where the trees were cut down.

After the three Xiaopengs arrived, Xiaopeng gasped and said, "Everyone sends flying Pokémon to search carefully. Zoro, after you take a rest, use the drone to continue the reconnaissance."

Zoro took a few breaths and said, "I don't need to rest, just take a few breaths."

Zoro once again operated the drone and began to conduct reconnaissance, and the Pokémon also began to search for traces of the Flying Mantis nearby.

Time passes slowly.

Many Pokémon returned in vain, but Zoro continued to use drones to conduct reconnaissance.

Suddenly, Solo shouted, "Xiao Peng, come quickly, I found traces of the flying mantis."

Xiaopeng and Uub came to Solo and looked at the drone display screen again. At this time, a fallen tree was displayed on the screen. Through the gap, many flying mantises could be seen. Cut down other trees for training.

"Okay." Xiaopeng exclaimed in surprise.

Then he said, "Uub, Zoro, gather the Pokémon and leave quickly. Don't let them run away. Zoro, use the drone to observe after you run for a while to prevent them from running away."

In fact, the Flying Mantis tribe rarely moved after they started training. Even after the training was over, they had to take a rest. However, Xiaopeng was already impatient, so he told Zoro like this.

After the three gathered Pokémon, they set off again under the leadership of Zoro to the place where they found traces of the Flying Mantis.

There were no accidents on the road.

After arriving nearby, the three of them hid their figures and slowly headed towards their destination. As a group living in the Viridian Forest, with rare Pokémon like Flying Mantis, the leader of the group is likely to be a gym-level peak or a quasi-celestial king. level, so the three of them must be careful, careful, and more careful.

Looking at the flying mantises that were working hard to train over there, Xiaopeng started to look for them one by one. He looked at five or six of them in a row. They were all of average qualifications, but the levels of these flying mantises were relatively high, with an average of more than 30 levels. (senior level).

Xiaopeng looked at all the flying mantises close to him. The best one was a 1V one, so Xiaopeng said, "Let's take a look around these flying mantises. Everyone be careful to hide your body. I haven't found the flying mantis group yet." Where is the leader?"

Uub and Zoro nodded, and the three of them began to investigate around the periphery of the Flying Mantis group. They saw each Flying Mantis consciously slashing at the tree, forming a series of knife marks.

Xiaopeng couldn't help but sigh in a low voice, "Flying Mantis is indeed a born warrior."

The three of them only dared to observe from a distance on the periphery. After circling around, they found that the number of this group of flying mantises was about 60-80. This was only a high probability estimate from the periphery. The center of the group of flying mantises could not be seen. informational.

After observation, Xiaopeng found that there were quite a few highly qualified flying mantises in this group. There were several in 1V and 2V, and one in 3V. The one with better qualifications had not yet been found.

So Xiaopeng said, "Let's follow this group of flying mantises first and observe them. I will take a closer look at their qualifications."

It was only on the periphery that 3V's qualifications were discovered. Xiaopeng was a little unwilling to capture 3V's Flying Mantis like this. After all, there were still Flying Mantis in the inner circle. Xiaopeng planned to stay there for two days and take a look. There were still five days until the end of the competition. , if you don’t find anyone with high qualifications today or tomorrow, capture that 3V flying mantis and retreat.

The three of Xiaopeng set up the camp some distance away from the flying mantis group, and then Xiaopeng waited day and night for the highly qualified flying mantises in the center to appear. Xiaopeng did not believe that they would stay in the center all their lives.
