Pokemon Settler

Under the tall and lush zelkova tree, Rock sat on the grass with his legs spread out, his hands supporting his body behind his back.

The Arbor monster was coiled on the branch above his head, swallowing snake messages to learn information about the bird Pokémon around him.

Bay Leaf, which had been transported for many times, lay down next to him, resting with its eyes closed, and from time to time stretched out its vine whip to scratch its back.

The bright moon hangs high, and the stars twinkle in the dark blue sky.

The bright moonlight and starlight shine through the gaps in the tree canopy, illuminating the open space under the forest.

The unicorn worm boxes formed a circle and were scattered around Rock.

Woof woof

After patrolling for a while, Darubi ran to Rock and rubbed his body.

Thanks for your hard work.

Rock stroked Delubi's head vigorously and patted its chest with his other hand.

His technique made Dairubi close his eyes comfortably.

After giving Delubi a full body massage, Rock took out a wooden bowl, filled it with spring water, and gave it some bacon.

After replenishing some water, the conscientious Dairubi set out for inspection again.

Didi

At this time, the hourly chime of the electronic watch sounded.

Rock raised his hand to look at the time. It had been an hour and a half since the last feeding.

So he stood up from the grass and walked towards the surrounding worm boxes.

The unicorn bugs stopped eating at some point, and each one curled up into a circle to rest.

Sensing Rock's aura, they all poked their heads out of the worm box and arched their bodies in an attempt to crawl out of the worm box.

Seeing the actions of the unicorn bugs, Rock's eyes lit up.

He knew that this was a precursor to the evolution of the one-horned beetle.

Bayleaf, here to help!

Rock called out to the bay leaf and quickly took out the unicorn worm from the worm box.

As soon as these unicorn beetles landed on the ground, they quickly moved their pink spherical feet on the abdomen and climbed toward a big tree in the center of the bee farm.

Regardless of where the little guy climbed to, Rock immediately took out the unicorn worm from the next worm box.

Bayleaf, who heard Rock's call, also ran over and stretched out his vine whip to help from the other direction.

Soon all the unicorn worms came out of the worm box, and they crawled up the tree in groups under the light of the stars and moon.

Soon the six tall zelkova trees were covered with unicorn bugs. The first unicorn bug to climb the tree occupied a thick branch.

This branch is twenty meters high from the ground. The unicorn insect's body tightly grasps the bark of the tree, and its body swings gently along with the branch at high altitude.

The brave little guy lowered his head to look at the ground, then jumped down from the branch.

As if a switch was turned on, other unicorn bugs followed closely and jumped from the branches one after another.

oh!

Rock, who had been paying attention to them, was shocked when he saw such a sight.

The next second, in his surprised eyes, all these unicorn insects were floating in the air.

When Rock looked carefully, he discovered that there was a transparent silk thread connected to the branch.

The silk thread vaguely reflects an imperceptible silver light in the moonlight, and it is on this thread that the unicorn worm hangs in the air.

Haha, it's really amazing.

Baili

Rock and Bayleaf stood under the tree, looking at the unicorn bugs hanging high in the sky with some amazement.

Suddenly, an owl that had been peeping for a long time flew out from a tree not far away. It spread its brown wings and flew silently across the night sky.

Just when this nighthawk stretched out its claws and immediately caught a unicorn beetle.

A big purple snake suddenly sprang out from the canopy of the tree, its big mouth filled with sharp white snake teeth.

The owl that was caught off guard was bitten by the Arbor monster's wings and dragged into the dense branches and leaves.

Goo! Goooo!

The shrill chirping of birds suddenly sounded a few times, and a few pieces of brown feathers floated down from the trees.

Well done, Abo! Don't let these sky thieves succeed.

Rock waved his fist vigorously in the air. He had not noticed the owl under the cover of night just now.

After a false alarm, he cheered up and stared at the surrounding forest.

At this moment, a dazzling white light lit up from the tree, and Rock quickly looked away.

I saw the unicorn bugs suddenly lighting up their bodies with the light of evolution one after another.

Forty-five one-horned insects evolved at the same time, and the blooming light illuminated this small grove of beech trees as bright as day, and the starry sky briefly dimmed for a moment.

The light in the forest quickly returned to normal. At this time, what hung under the tree had turned into light yellow iron-shelled kelp.

As the transitional form in the entire metamorphic evolution process of the giant needle, the shape of the iron-shelled worm is like a huge insect chrysalis.

The round heads of these iron shells reflected the moonlight and looked very hard. Their black triangular eyes were looking happily at Rock under the tree.

Haha, the evolution is great. Now I have the ability to protect myself.

Rock walked around under the tree and inspected each iron-shelled worm using the gleaming spell of the bay leaves.

It seems that they have accumulated enough energy during the unicorn beetle stage. Their shells are smooth and complete, their bodies are plump and well-proportioned, and they are developing very well.

After working hard for most of the night, Rock was finally able to breathe a sigh of relief and go back to rest.

After the unicorn evolved into the worm, he didn't have to worry too much about them being eaten by other bird Pokémon.

These iron-shelled worms were very particular about the locations they chose before they evolved, and they were all hidden in the leafy canopy.

They will hang motionless here during the entire iron shell stage, making it difficult for predators to spot them, whether in the sky or on the ground.

Even if they are attacked by enemies, their shells can protect themselves well.

With the continuous support of the 'hardening' skill, Tiekei Kun's outer shell can eventually reach the hardness of an iron block.

And they are not completely incapable of counterattack. The poisonous needle skills they had during the one-horned insect period are still mastered after evolution.

Moreover, the iron-shell kuns that evolve together as a group will support each other and form a joint attack.

If the owl just now attacks Rock's iron-shelled eagles again at this time, it will face a rain of poisonous needles.

However, since the entire body has turned into a pupa, Iron Shell Kun will basically no longer take in water before evolution.

In order to reduce energy consumption, unless they face a real attack, they will not move even if something big happens.

Rock knows this very well. All the large needle lairs he has attacked before have not been attacked by the iron-shelled kun inside.

Thinking that the next beekeeping work would be easier, Rock happily called the three elves back to the camp to rest.

Now the hard work of the past few days is worth it. You can get up later tomorrow. Darubi! Don't lick my face tomorrow. I want to rest!

Uuuuuuuuuuuuuuuu

Delubi whimpered in response to Rock, but its short tail that kept wagging betrayed its true thoughts.

I slightly changed the first two chapters while I was at work today. Those who have read it can do it without reading it. It will not affect the plot. It is just some optimizations for smoothness and vividness.
