Chapter 214 You are just like that civil engineering senior.

"Little Fish and Little Beauty, I feel like the two names have similar tastes." In the living room, Mary, who had come to visit, was teasing the Ugly Fish blowing bubbles in the bucket and suddenly made a sarcastic remark.

Then-

hetui!

Ugly Fish rolled its eyes at Mary. "Little Fish is clearly a very nice name. Don't talk nonsense, you foreigner who doesn't speak Donghuang language well."

Mary sighed helplessly. Once she got involved in something she liked, she would become unreasonable. She wiped the water off her face and looked at the computer screen in front of Wei Xin.

"Is this... the breeding program for the Feebas?"

Mary skillfully dodged the ugly fish's attack.

"Yes," Wei Xin said, "the Milotic training method summarized by Mr. Michaeli."

To raise an excellent Milotic, instead of trading evolution with a Beautiful Scale, the best method is to do what Wei Xin did when raising Sylveon: through long-term conditioning and feeding it high-quality Energy Cubes to increase its Beauty stat, which can maximize Feebas's potential.

However, Milotic that evolved in this way only possesses two traits: competitiveness and a captivating appearance.

If you want a Milotic with the Magic Scale ability, you can give it an Everstone when it's about to evolve, and then add a Beautiful Scale to it.

As for the beautiful scales, they can be synthesized artificially. The most crucial material is the heart scales that fall from the Heartfish (which must have the Wet Body trait). Since the materials will expire and deteriorate, it is best to wait until the Feebas is ready before having the craftsman make them.

At the end of the document, Mikuri also mentioned an unverified hypothesis: the creation of a shiny Milotic, also known as "shiny plating," which involves using Heart Scales dropped from a shiny Ludicolo to create Beautiful Scales, which, when used by Feebas, might allow a regular Feebas to evolve into a shiny Milotic.

However, due to the consumption of time and resources, and the fact that Mikkelsen and Adam were not scholars, they were unable to verify their conjectures.

"A Shiny Milotic." Wei Xin seemed quite interested in it.

Unfortunately, the Heartfish prefers tropical environments, and while there are some wild Heartfish in Donghuang, their numbers are not large.

If you want to find it, you still have to go to Fangyuan.

He turned his head, took out the prepared energy cube from the jar on the table, broke it open and threw it into the bucket. The ugly fish sniffed it twice, swallowed it in big gulps, and showed a happy expression. Its thick lips opened and closed—creating a strange sense of déjà vu. Wei Xin always felt that the ugly fish would suddenly emerge from the water and play a strange song.

"Mobe!" Morubek jumped out of the Poké Ball, opened its mouth and reached out to Wei Xin, "What do you want to eat? Break me some."

Ugly Fish glanced at Morupec.

hetui!

You're only fit to eat my saliva.

Wei Xin smiled and pointed to a spot not far away: "There are some newly made energy cubes on the cabinet. Red lids represent strength, blue represents wisdom, green represents cuteness, pink represents beauty, and orange represents handsomeness. You can take one if you want."

Upon hearing this, the long-haired troll jumped out of its Poké Ball, immediately selected the Strength-type Energy Cube, tossed it into its mouth, and after chewing, its eyes lit up. It was delicious and nutritious, much better than protein powder.

"Where's the Bad Frog?" Wei Xin wondered, not seeing the Bad Frog.

"She's at home, so she's probably not very hungry." Mary's gaze shifted slightly, remembering the unruly frog lying at home eating homemade junk food until it couldn't move. She coughed, mustered her courage, and said, "Wei Xin, do you want to come to my house for lunch today? I've been learning to cook lately—"

Could you please taste it for me?

Marie's cooking—Wei Xin recalled the dormitory that was blown up by Marie's super pressure cooker not long ago. To this day, the school janitor still doesn't understand why a pressure cooker could turn a dormitory into ruins. So he used a waveguide to check Marie's room, but there was nothing that could pose a threat to him. The only suspicious thing was that the girl in front of him seemed to be plotting something.

And the clothes she wore today.

The outer garment still bore the name of Spike Town, but Wei Xin promptly retracted the Waveguide, deciding to save the surprise of unwrapping the gift for later.

"Of course," Wei Xin readily agreed, hoping that Mary's family had enough drinking water.

"Then it's settled." Mary clenched her fist lightly, and said excitedly, "Yes, I'll go back and prepare in a bit."

Then he picked up Morubek: "No snacks before lunch."

"Morube!" Morube could wave his little arms in mid-air and protest loudly.

Wei Xin turned and opened the document. Fang Yuan was in a hurry to adapt the work into a script, and he didn't know when he would be able to come out of the mine. He had to write the ending of "God Clan I" before he set off.

"By the way, where's Pipa?" Mary suddenly asked.

"He went to pick up a package," Wei Xin said. "He's already at the door."

As soon as Wei Xin finished speaking, the door to the room was pushed open, and Pipa, carrying two huge miner's backpacks, said, "I'm back."

"Have you bought everything?" Wei Xin asked, having entrusted the task of purchasing mining equipment to Pipa.

"Hmm, this is a Devon Company storage bag, the best one on the market. It can hold a whole warehouse's worth of stuff. With enough food, it'll keep us in the mine for quite a while," Piper said, taking out tools such as canned food, iron pots, and pickaxes one by one from his backpack. The pile was as tall as a person, almost as tall as Doraemon's four-dimensional pocket.

Unfortunately, it cannot contain living things.

"A mine? You're planning to go down into the mine? A mine in Shanxi?" Mary asked in confusion. She knew a little about the Pokémon commotion and mine collapse in Shanxi that had made headlines.

"Yes," Wei Xin said, "Do you want to come with us?"

Wei Xin had invited Cynthia before, but unfortunately, as a mythology history teacher, she couldn't take consecutive leave, especially for a reason that had nothing to do with her profession, such as going down into the mine. So she had to regretfully decline.

Mary opened her mouth as if to agree, but then rubbed her fingers together and refused, saying, "Let's talk about it next time."

"Then forget it," Wei Xin said. Going down into the mine is indeed not suitable for large groups. Two or three people can look after each other, but four or more people would make the team too bulky.

Piper finally took two pieces of clothing out of his backpack: "A miner's suit and a safety helmet, sent from Shanxi. Try them on to see if they fit."

Not long after, Pipa came out dressed. His khaki clothes and trousers were covered with pockets. Combined with his muscular build and slightly mature face, he looked so serious that he seemed to have been tortured by the cruel society, without a trace of joy or sorrow.

"Just like the civil engineering senior from the next major," Mary suddenly remarked.

puff.

Pipa felt as if an arrow had pierced his heart. "Civil Engineering senior," he thought, "how could such a vicious word exist in this world?" He retorted, "There's nothing I can do. This uniform is like the school uniform in Donghuang; most people can't pull it off. It's just practical, that's all that matters."

"Indeed." Wei Xin changed his clothes and came out of the room, tugging at his sleeves a couple of times. "At least it's better quality than the work clothes we wore during social practice. Mary, what's your opinion?"

"He looks like a celebrity filming a documentary," Mary praised without hesitation, snapping a photo and adding it to her album. The saying "clothes make the man" doesn't apply to everyone, but Wei Xin was clearly someone who could make beggar's clothes look fashionable.

Papa clutched his chest. Although he didn't care too much about looks, he was still a little hurt. He even regretted buying the same clothes as Wei Xin. At least he could have chosen a different color.

"Never mind, let's prepare lunch first," Pipa said helplessly.

"No need to prepare one for me," Wei Xin said, looking at Mary, stuffing a few energy cubes into his pocket, a slight smile playing on his lips. "I have some errands to run in a bit."
