Pokemon: I'm really a civilian trainer

"hiss?"

The green caterpillar put down the branch and looked at the old village chief with a puzzled face.

Although it is a bit stupid, it should not be difficult to learn to count, right?

You must know that the owner has taught it for almost a day, and it has the concept of numbers before. Numbers often appear in human language, and it understands a little bit over time.

The only problem is that it is now learning to count backwards, and it always feels that its brain can't turn around, so it can't do it well.

The green caterpillar was still thinking, when he saw the village elder take out the elf ball.

Accompanied by a flash of red light, a burly fighting elf appeared, it was old man Qian's strange strength.

Old man Qian looked at Wei Li and said, "Check the number, it should be more than twenty."

Wei Li scratched his head, without thinking too much, and followed his master's instructions to check the number.

Different from Haoli and wrist strength before evolution, the evolved Weili not only has a stronger body shape, but also has two more arms on the back.

And this directly doubles the statistical range of the strange force.

I saw Weili fiddling with his twenty fingers, muttering in his mouth, and found that the number was not enough, and soon sat on the ground, and fiddled with its four toes.

Although there are five fingers on Guai Li's palm, there are only two toes on the sole of his foot.

Just like that, when counting to twenty-four, the strange force suddenly got stuck and fell into a dazed state similar to a brain shutdown.

The old man Qian looked at the strange strength of breaking his toes while sitting on the ground, the corner of his mouth twitched slightly, and then turned his head to look at Mark's green caterpillar.

This is a green caterpillar!

Although Wei Li has well-developed limbs and a simple mind, it is not even inferior to the green caterpillar.

Old man Qian, who has been running the green caterpillar breeding base in Qingxi Village for many years, has a deep understanding of the intelligence of green caterpillars.

To say that the intelligence of the green caterpillar is equal to the carp king is to insult the green caterpillar, but even if the intelligence of the green caterpillar is stronger than that of the carp king, it is not much stronger, far below the average elf IQ.

Among all elves, Guaili's IQ can barely reach the average.

Suddenly, old man Qian noticed something. He saw the pattern written on the ground by the green caterpillar holding a wooden stick not long ago.

Although it looks crooked, these patterns are clearly numerical symbols.

Not only learned to count, but also learned to write numbers?

What the hell is this green caterpillar?

Old man Qian looked at the green caterpillar again, just as he saw the green caterpillar approaching Wei Li, very enthusiastically pointing Wei Li to count, without any pride or complacency.

Old man Qian sucked in a breath unconsciously.

He did notice that Mark's green caterpillar was smarter than normal green caterpillars, but never expected to be this smart.

Reminiscent of the green caterpillar's excellent [collision] skills in the yard a few days ago, plus the shape and strong body of the green caterpillar that surpassed ordinary green caterpillars, plus the kid Mark took the green caterpillar to Qingxi Forest every day, exercising as hard as an ascetic.

Timing, location, harmony, all three are available.

As long as it continues like this, this green caterpillar will surely have a bright future.

Even if Mark fails to pass the elf academy in the future, when this green caterpillar evolves into a butterfly, Mark can easily join a small town-level bug gym, and then become an official trainer logically.

Although it is impossible to compare with Qian Erniu and Lin Tong, Mark's life has been guaranteed.

The old man Qian's mind was going back and forth, but Mark didn't notice it, he just thought there was something wrong with his approach.

He walked up to the old man Qian who had been in a daze for a while, and asked suspiciously: "Village chief, will there be any problems if I let the green caterpillar learn mathematics?"

Old man Qian came back to his senses, intending to give a good compliment, but after thinking about it, he gave up.

At Mark's age, it is the period of guarding against arrogance and impetuosity. If you praise him too much, it will easily have the opposite effect.

He rubbed the stubble on his chin and said, "Is there a problem...not for the time being. You can continue to follow your method, but you must pay attention to the intensity of actual combat training. Don't let your green caterpillar overwhelm your body, or suffer any permanent damage. As for how you just said how to teach the green caterpillar to count backwards, you have already seen my strange power. In fact, this is also an area I am not very good at."

A few meters away, the strange force that was still snapping fingers heard something, and looked at his master in a daze, and saw old man Qian holding up the poke ball.

A red light flashed, and the strange power was absorbed into it.

The green caterpillar came over curiously, staring intently at the elf ball filled with strange power.

Old man Qian raised his brows slightly, thought of something, touched the green caterpillar's head and said, "You like elf balls very much?"

"Hiss!"

Old Man Qian smiled slightly: "Since you like it so much, well, if you can learn to count backwards, I will help your master finance half of your Poké Ball. However, I said counting backwards, but you can't count it out. You have to write it on the ground with a wooden stick like just now, and you can't write crookedly."

"Hiss!"

The green caterpillar jumped excitedly onto Old Man Qian's shoulder, rubbing his cheek.

Mark glared at the smug green caterpillar, and walked up to old man Qian, "Village chief, you don't need to do this, about the green caterpillar's elf ball, I myself..."

Before Mark finished speaking, he was interrupted by old man Qian waving his hand.

With a straight face, Old Man Qian comforted the lost green caterpillar twice with his hand, and said, "Cultivating an elf is like nurturing a child. What I just said has already given it expectations. If you directly dispel its expectations like this, do you know how much negative impact it will bring?

That's it. As long as it can figure out how to count backwards and write it down with a wooden stick, I will pay half of its poke ball.

Green caterpillar, do you have confidence? "

"Hiss!!"

The green caterpillar jumped down from Old Man Qian's shoulder, first made a gesture of determination, then immediately picked up the small wooden stick before, wrote and drew on the dirt floor, and entered a state of assiduous study.

Old man Qian glanced at Mark, gently rubbed the stubble on his chin, showing a half-smile expression.

Although Mark's performance made him feel like a generation of newcomers replaced the old ones, but in terms of experience in nurturing elves, Mark is obviously still a lot worse.

Old man Qian said: "I'm not very good at teaching the green caterpillar to count backwards, but you can learn this method of mobilizing the enthusiasm of the elves. I can see that your green caterpillar is very sensible, but you have to make the best use of the situation. Learn and exercise with a different attitude, and the results are often very different."

Mark glanced at the green caterpillar writing and drawing on the ground, and then looked at the ever-increasing experience bar on the Imperial Spirit Master panel.

After some encouragement from old man Qian, the growth rate of the green caterpillar's experience bar by learning mathematics increased by at least 30%.

Mark nodded solemnly and said, "Understood, thank you for your guidance, but the elf ball is still..."

Mark's words were interrupted again by old man Qian waving his hand.

"Even if it is my support for you and the green caterpillar, I am the head of Qingxi Village, shouldn't I help young people with potential in the village?

In fact, if it wasn't for the fear that you would become dependent on my funding, it would be fine for me to directly sponsor a Poké Ball after the green caterpillar completes the conditions.

Well, the time has been delayed a lot. You and the green caterpillar didn't eat anything. Let's have a simple meal and report to the school in the village.

By the way, when it comes to eating, the more food you eat, the better, 80%... no, 70% full is enough..."
