Adventurer of the Elf World

Tomorrow he will restart the training of several Pokémons. Before that, he must prepare in advance and arrange some training content. This is his responsibility as a trainer.

It is also to ensure that the training can proceed efficiently and smoothly.

It is not time to rest yet...

Xiu got up early in the morning to pack up and prepare breakfast for the Pokémons.

After a night of rest, Xiu looked energetic today and was in a good mood.

After all, it was the first time for Jigglypuff to participate in training today, which will be a key point related to his endurance.

"Eat, let's find a place to train in the suburbs later."

Xiu was also chewing the breakfast in his hand, thinking about where to go.

…………

Because he had to wait for Dr. Endo's affairs, Xiu couldn't just leave Nibi City. He could only arrange training nearby and digest the gains of these days.

"Okay, stop."

Xiu looked down from the sky. After leaving the city, he found an opportunity for Casey to take him to the sky and then fly over.

There was no way. There were a lot of things to do today, and Xiu didn't want to waste time on the road.

He finally chose the west of Nibi City, where there is a small forest, right at the junction of Nibi City and the plateau. Because there are no resources here, even miners will not come here to dig.

There are few people and a large area, which meets his requirements.

"Come out, everyone." Xiu released the Pokémon as soon as he landed.

"Hyperion will warm up first, Casey will help me activate these meteorites, and Jigglypuff will watch first, and I will teach you how to practice later."

Because he had planned it long ago, Xiu quickly arranged them.

The first step is to let Sandshrew complete the transformation, which was a topic that Xiu and Professor Oak discussed for a long time yesterday.

Professor Oak also believes that it is a tendency for Sandshrew to evolve into steel, but Hyperion can naturally absorb metal, while Sandshrew needs some kind of stimulation to reach this level.

Professor Oak's suggestion is that you can try to continue stimulating, and you will know what the situation is after it is completed.

Unlike the situation of Scyther back then, this is a choice of Sandshrew's body, which can also be said to be a kind of evolution.

The answer will soon be revealed. Xiu was recording a video with the illustrated book, and the protagonist of the camera was the sandmouse.

It held a meteorite in its hand and swallowed it in a few bites, followed by the next one.

It kept coming. As long as the sandmouse could eat it, Xiu didn't care about the loss at all.

The silver spots on its body continued to spread at a speed visible to the naked eye, and more spots emerged from its skin at the same time.

This reaction was stronger than that of the giant claw mantis at that time, and the sandmouse did not show any uneasiness or discomfort, and devoted itself to swallowing the meteorites.

Xiu even felt that it was controlled by desire.

After the twelve meteorites were swallowed, another change began to appear on the sandmouse. Its skin began to lose its luster and become dull, and it looked very dry, with some wrinkles protruding.

Then cracks began to appear in the weak parts of the skin, and then a subtle sound was heard, just like the cracking of leather.

"Crack~Crack...Crack..."

It was said before that the skin of the sandmouse has many lines, and now the skin on the sandmouse began to rise from these lines.

Xiu has been paying attention to what happened to the sandmouse, but he did not stop it. Instead, he continued to supply it.

Because Xiu could see that it was shedding its skin. The raised skin gradually expanded, and then large pieces of it fell off, revealing the new skin.

And the exposed new skin was like polished steel, shining with silver light. When the old skin completely faded, the sandmouse was now like a sculpture made of fine steel.

Each piece of skin was like a mirror. The sun's light was reflected on it, making it completely immersed in the light and impossible to look directly at.

The skin on the abdomen was better, not as exaggerated as those on the back.

"No way! Can't show the face?" Xiu raised his hand to block the reflected light, while complaining.

None of the elves in his hand could show their faces outside. Originally, he thought that such a common elf as the sandmouse could be released, but now it seems that he thought too much.

Its dazzling level during the day can match that of Casey and the others.

It is so dazzling that it can blind other people's titanium alloy dog ​​eyes.

Not only the skin has changed, but also its claws. The original bone claws have been completely occupied by metal and become metal claws, and the same is true for the toes.

The only thing that has not changed is the sapphire-like eyes.

The sandshrew stood there for a long time before recovering, looking around in confusion.

Not only Xiu looked at it, but Casey and the others also did the same, and even the giant claw mantis that was training was no exception.

There is no way, it is really too... eye-catching.

Xiu stopped the video recording. He was sure that if this was leaked, it would cause a lot of changes.

I am afraid that the sandshrew will become a hot topic. After all, this kind of sandshrew can greatly satisfy some people's desire to show off, and many people will want to study it.

More people sell or catch sandshrews and then force them to feed stones.

Or someone can recognize this meteorite, but Xiu knows very well that the real reason why the sandshrew became like this is not the meteorite at all, but the influence of those crystals.

Only Xiu knows this, and the crystals are in his hands.

In other words, the sandshrew is almost impossible to copy.

If this Sandshrew shows up, he will be tracked by hunters.

What about the Giant Mantis that he showed once before?

What about the super rare Pokémon Jigglypuff?

What about the Alien Casey?

It's over! It's over!

He now has an inexplicable fear of human gatherings.

Xiu shook his head and murmured, "It's difficult~"

Walked forward, squatted in front of the Sandshrew, and asked, "How is it? Is there any discomfort? Or do you feel like continuing to devour?"

The Sandshrew was originally looking at its body, and then made some movements to try to adapt. At this time, Xiu came to him.

"It said no, but it felt a little stiff."

"Let me see." Xiu said and stretched his hand forward.

Poking his fingers on the skin on the back, Xiu could clearly feel a hard feeling, which seemed stronger than before, and the skin was lumped together along these lines.

The skin on the abdomen was better, still retaining a trace of softness, and did not begin to clump like the back.

"Let's roll it up and see." Xiu tried to pick up the sandshrew, but found that it was much heavier than before, at least 50 kilograms.

He didn't know if this sandshrew could still be the same as before.
