Chapter 1310: Small Actions of the Wandering Chamber of Commerce
Perhaps sensing something approaching, the huge figure's breathing paused, and then he let out a loud roar.
“Bedo——!”
The sound waves echoed, and just the roar alone was like a sonic move.
It is conceivable how terrifyingly powerful this elf would be when it was at its peak.
But it is not angry, it is just stopping things from approaching.
Its current condition is very bad and it cannot take care of its surroundings at all. If you get close to it, you may be accidentally injured by its poisonous gas.
Even poisonous elves, or even their own kind, are not completely immune to energy waves of this level.
It is considering other living beings.
"So strong..."
Liu Rumei frowned.
She felt that if this thing was in its prime, its strength might be comparable to her secondary pets.
The storage staff in the factory are really careless. They dare to treat such elves casually.
On the other hand, Su Bai, facing such a terrifying monster elf, still did not stop at all.
"What a troublesome child. You are sick and can't even recognize my voice?" His voice was clear, like the sound of a crisp wind chime amid the construction noise.
The originally restless Chouchou Ni suddenly quieted down after hearing Su Bai's voice.
It twisted its body stiffly and looked behind it with its two huge, triangular eyes that were as big as copper bells.
The moment it saw Su Bai's figure, its huge body began to tremble violently.
"Be... do?"
As if he still couldn't believe what he saw, Chouchou Ni stared at his copper bell eyes wide.
Su Bai smiled, and as if to let it see more clearly, he took a few steps closer, and finally stretched out his hand and touched the body of Chou Chou Ni.
The body of Chouchou Mud was originally made of mud, but Su Bai had taken good care of it in the past, and its body was so soft and delicate that it was no different from flour.
Otherwise, Su Bai would not have let it stick to his body so often.
But now, the delicate body of the past is completely gone. Its stinky mud body is swollen and deformed, and several places are ulcerated like human skin, revealing red flesh similar to muscle tissue, with all kinds of maggots, hair and other things wriggling on it.
"Baiduo!"
Feeling Su Bai's touch, Chou Chou Ni immediately shrank her body, like a girl who had been abused and felt that her body was dirty.
Su Bai smiled and said, "It seems that you have become a lot more sentimental during the time I was away, but it's okay now..."
"Because you're home."
Su Bai's tone seemed to have its own magic, which really made Chouchou Ni's tense nerves gradually relax.
What follows is a heartwarming exchange between one person and one pet.
Most of the time, it was Chouchou Ni who was talking, while Su Bai was quietly preparing medicine, listening, and offering a word of comfort from time to time.
Liu Rumei watched the interaction between the man and his pet throughout the whole process.
From the initial wariness towards Chouchou Ni, I gradually developed a sense of sympathy for him.
I even wondered if this incident was really caused by something unkind of their Fenghuang City...
"How is it, this child, can he be saved?"
"That's what I said."
Su Bai smiled and simply applied medicine to Chouchou Ni.
"The situation of the stinky mud is indeed not optimistic. We can't let it stay here any longer, but am I not here now?"
"I not only have medicine that can cure its illness, but also a tool that can preserve its strength as quickly as possible..."
"What is it?"
Liu Rumei asked subconsciously.
Then Su Bai slowly took out a Poké Ball and waved it in front of her.
Liu Rumei opened her mouth and instinctively wanted to ask if this elf was really so easy to tame?
But as soon as the words were on the tip of her tongue, she took them back. As for whether there was anything fishy in their interaction, Liu Rumei would never believe it.
"Although it's not the same Poké Ball as before, you won't refuse, right?"
Su Bai slowly knocked the Poké Ball onto Muddy Soup's body.
Maybe it was because the bond had already been fully extended, so the ball didn't even shake, and it was successfully captured with smoke.
Such a powerful elf, it's really easy to subdue it...
Being with Su Bai really makes me numb in some aspects of my senses.
"Now, can you tell me what's going on?
What is the relationship between you and the elf? And what happened here..."
"It's not a very complicated matter, actually. It was just some tricks that the Wandering Chamber of Commerce used to prevent Phoenix City from coming to Azure Coast for assistance."
Su Bai pointed to the area behind him that was blocked by the stinky mud.
"See that?"
Inside was a pile of shiny white ashes.
“This thing is called cleansing incense.
Speaking of which, the Wandering Merchants Guild is also very cunning. This thing is almost harmless to humans. Even some ordinary people in our village will deliberately use this incense to make sachets when they leave the village, because carrying the ashes of this incense can effectively resist wild elves to a certain extent and make them actively avoid it. "
“No wonder the workers in Fenghuang City didn’t notice any problems when they were building it.”
Liu Rumei also reacted.
"Yes." Su Bai continued, "But this thing is harmless to humans, but it is really fatal to elves. Even the famously durable stinky mud can't stand accidentally ingesting this thing."
The effect of cleansing incense in the game is to avoid wild Pokémon. In reality, it is a rare object that is harmful to Pokémon.
“The Wandering Merchants mixed these incense with building materials and sold them to Phoenix City. They also introduced me, a group of elves who are not very defensive against humans and are not very good at thinking.
Chouchou Ni told me that at that time it was directing its subordinates to work. At first, a small number of poisonous elves were affected, but it didn't take it seriously. It was not until more and more elves accidentally ingested the incense, and some even died suddenly, that Chouchou Ni reacted.
Although it immediately gathered all the elves and transferred their incense to its own body, the hatred had already been formed. The poisonous elves believed that humans deliberately harmed them. They didn't care who the culprit was, as long as they knew that it was humans who attacked them. "
"So that's what it looks like..."
Liu Rumei sighed and asked, "Then what is your relationship with Chou Chou?"
"It is indeed my spirit. It was like this before, but it was separated due to some irresistible force."
Su Bai's words were very general, but it sounded like he wasn't hiding anything.
Liu Rumei tentatively accepted this reason.
"Now that everything is clear, does that mean everything is fine?"
Su Bai blinked his eyes: "Master Liu, have you forgotten that there is another leader here?"
Hearing this, Liu Rumei's heart skipped a beat: "You mean..."
“Yes, that dust mountain should have sneaked to the surface and taken revenge on society.
And according to Chou Chou Ni, in order to achieve his goal, that guy went to the foot of Tiangong Mountain and got a piece of poisonous stone. Now that he is strong enough, even if he can't level Fenghuang City, he should be able to at least cause some trouble to your city lord. "
