Age of Elves:Return of the King

Chapter 12 Nibi Gym

Yun Mengyao seemed to be a little strange by Yun Xiao's attitude, tilting her head with a curious look on her face.

"Brother, what's wrong with you today? Are you stimulated by anything...Did...the rent go up?!"

Yun Xiao naturally shook his head.

"Nothing, just sit down and rest for a while. Dinner will be ready soon."

Yunmengyao sat on the sofa, and suddenly her eyes lit up.

"What does it smell like? It smells so good!"

"Brother, what should we have for dinner?"

Yun Xiao didn't answer, turned around and walked into the kitchen.

"You'll know in a minute."

....

"After eating, remember to wash your hands."

Yun Xiao put the last bowl of food on the table and shouted towards the sofa.

Yun Mengyao responded, ran all the way to wash her hands, and was stunned when she sat down at the dining table.

"This... bro, so many dishes?"

In front of her, there was a large plate of steaming braised pork ribs, a plate of shredded potatoes, and a vegetable and meatball soup.

When Yun Xiao heard this, he suddenly felt depressed.

This kind of food is already considered rich in Mengyao's eyes.

On weekdays, in order to save money, the two of them even have no meat dishes on the table. To buy vegetables, they have to go to the vegetable market to pick cheap ones.

He picked up a bowl, filled a portion of rice for Yun Mengyao, and placed it in front of her.

"Well, eat quickly, it will get cold in a while."

Yun Mengyao took the bowl, but with a hesitant expression on her face, she hesitated:

"Brother... I didn't mean to tell you about first place or anything like that today. I just want to share it. You don't have to put so much pressure on yourself."

In her eyes, the meal she had today was so sumptuous that her brother made it to reward her.

But in fact, all she needs is a compliment. Given her family's financial conditions, such a meal may bring huge pressure.

When Yun Xiao heard this, she paused for a few seconds while holding the chopsticks for her.

My younger sister...is really a little too sensible.

——It’s so sensible that it makes people feel distressed.

He said softly:

"What nonsense are you talking about? Don't think about that and eat well."

After saying that, he put a piece of pork ribs into my sister's bowl.

The latter still seemed a little worried, with a look of doubt on his face.

"Is it really okay... Brother, I can just eat whatever I want... There is also meat in the school cafeteria!"

Yun Xiao smiled.

"I told you to have a good meal. By the way, I want to tell you something."

"What's up?"

Yunmengyao's attention was immediately attracted.

"Your brother recently encountered a huge opportunity. From now on, we no longer have to worry about not having enough money."

After Yun Xiao finished speaking, he took a bite of rice with a serious look on his face.

"Really?!"

Hearing this, Yun Mengyao's eyes became a little brighter.

She knew that her brother would not lie about this kind of thing. If Yun Xiao said this, then it was really true!

"Yes, silly girl, just study hard and let the rest figure out a solution."

Well, maybe you don’t want to read it anymore.

Yun Xiao added silently in his heart.

Yunmengyao showed a sweet smile, finally relaxed, picked up a piece of ribs and tasted it.

"Wow! Brother, how come your cooking skills have improved so much? This is so delicious!"

She exclaimed as she finished chewing the ribs and took a big mouthful of rice.

Yun Xiao's eyes were full of smiles and he reminded:

"Eat slowly and don't choke. There will still be some in the pot after you finish eating."

Yun Mengyao happily ate the ribs and said vaguely:

"Now I believe it, brother, you are really rich."

Yun Xiao looked at her, feeling silent in his heart.

Yes, I am really rich.

No amount of money can compare to getting you back.

.....

After dinner, Yun Mengyao and Yun Xiao chatted about school, then returned to her room and started doing homework.

After Yun Xiao finished cleaning the kitchen, she also returned to her room. She stood in front of the window sill and looked at the lights of the main city in the distance.

Their house is on an older street. Looking out from here, you can see a dark and dirty alley in the distance, but in the distance are high-rise buildings with colorful lights.

Seeing the somewhat conflicting scene in front of him, Yun Xiao began to think about his next plan.

According to memory, Mengyao's illness was discovered half a year later.

But by that time, her disease had advanced to the middle stage and started to become serious.

Yunxiao spent some time making money in her previous life. By the time she entered the game, Mengyao was already weak and pale, and it was difficult to get out of bed and move around.

And now that he was reborn, he naturally didn't want his sister to face that kind of situation again.

Right now, there are only six days left before the game comes.

Once the game appears, it will have a huge impact on the current social structure and economic framework.

There will be more and more organizations willing to pay to acquire in-game props and currencies, and in the later stages there will even be a situation where there will be no market for them.

To cure Mengyao's disease, at least three million is needed.

And he believes that he has the ability to get the money soon after the server is launched.

As long as he can use these seven days to leave all players far behind, nothing will be a problem.

After making a decision, Yun Xiao stood quietly in front of the window until she felt sleepy, then returned to bed to rest.

A night of silence.

The next morning, after Yun Xiao woke up, Yun Mengyao had already left home to go to morning self-study.

There was still a bag of steaming steamed buns on the table, as well as a piece of paper with delicate writing on it.

"Brother, although making money is important, don't forget to take care of your health and remember to eat breakfast!"

Yun Xiao looked at this line of words and felt warm in his heart.

After breakfast, he returned to his room, locked the door and put on his helmet again.

The next moment, a white light flashed and his figure disappeared into the room.

...

"Hello, how was your rest last night?"

Miss Joy showed a polite smile and said to Yun Xiao.

"Thank you, I had a good rest."

Yun Xiao returned the room card to the other party, turned around and left the Elf Center, heading directly to the Dark Gray Gym.

The Dark Gray Gym is the closest gym to Zhenxin Town in the Kanto region, and it is also one of the weakest gyms.

It was mentioned in the guide in the previous life that the leader of this gym is a middle-aged man, and there are no particularly noteworthy spirits, so it can be solved easily.

At this moment, Yun Xiao had arrived at the door of the gym.

At the entrance of the huge square building, a Poké Ball sign is hung high, proving that this is an officially certified gym by the alliance.

Yun Xiao thought for a while and released the Charmander from the Poké Ball.

"I'll leave it to you soon, Charmander."

"Ouch!"

Charmander nodded, indicating that he could fight at any gym of this level.

One person and one dragon slowly walked into the building and found that it was dark without any light.

Yun Xiao thought for a while and said:

"Hello, I am Yun Xiao, a new trainer from Zhenxin Town. I am here to challenge the Dark Gray Gym and ask for advice from the gym leader."

As soon as he finished speaking, the sound of a switch was flipped, and the fluorescent lamps turned on, illuminating the entire space.

This is an entire battle field, covered with all kinds of strange rocks and gravel.

At the other end of the venue, a rich male voice also sounded:

"It's been a long time since there has been such a polite challenger. Let me introduce myself. I am the leader of the Dark Gray Gym, Xiaogang."

Yun Xiao raised his head and looked in the direction of the sound, but was stunned.

The person who spoke was a young man with spiky hair and squinted eyes. He was not at all the middle-aged man he knew in his previous life.

Could it be that at this time, the Dark Gray Gym was managed by another person?

Although I don’t know who this person is, I’ve come to this point and have no choice but to fight.

"Charmander, please."

"fire!"

Charmander was already standing in front of Yun Xiao, looking at Xiaogang across from him with fighting intent.

The latter squinted his eyes and couldn't see his emotions. He could only tell from his tone that he was a little surprised.

"Oh? Your Charmander looks pretty good...but it may be a little lacking in terms of nurturing."

"In this case, the elf I sent is him."

After he finished speaking, he threw the elf ball in his hand, white light flashed, and a gray-brown rock elf with a pair of arms floated in the air.

In front of Yun Xiao's eyes, a series of data also appeared.

[Elf: Little Fist Stone]

【Gender:♂】

[Attribute: Rock/Ground]

[Qualification: Blue]

[Strength evaluation: lv10 entry level]

[Characteristics: Strong (even if attacked by the opponent's moves, he will not be knocked down by one blow, and moves that kill with one hit have no effect.)]

...

Fortunately, although the people have changed, as one of the weakest gyms, it really won't be much stronger.

After reading the data, Yun Xiao thought to himself.

"Challenger, the battle is one-on-one. If either side of the elf loses its fighting power first, then it will be considered defeated. Is there no problem?"

Xiaogang stood up and said.

"no problem."

Yun Xiao shook his head.

"Okay, in that case, it's up to you to attack first."

Xiaogang said.

Yun Xiao was not polite and waved his hand and gave the order directly.

"Charmander, use spark!"

"Fire!"

The little fire dragon's body sank, sparks shot out from its mouth, and flew straight towards the small fist stone in the distance!

"Using fire-based skills against rock-based elves? It's a bit unwise. Little fist stone, use round!"

Regarding Yun Xiao's command, Xiaogang frowned and ordered.

"fist!"

When the little fist stone heard this, it refused to dodge in the face of the sparks. It caught the sparks and then curled up into a round shape.

At this time, Xiaogang spoke to Yun Xiao.

"When fighting against elves, you must pay attention to attribute restraint."

"The sparks of yours had little effect on the small fist stone, so it didn't cause much damage at all. Now that the small fist stone has been used to turn it into a round shape, its defense has been greatly improved. Now your chance of winning against the small fire dragon is even lower!"

He was a little disappointed at the moment. This little Charmander seemed to have good talent, but he didn't expect that the trainer couldn't even figure out the most basic restraint relationship.

From this point of view, there should be no suspense in this battle.

Then, he gave the order again.

"Little fist stone, use rolling!"

"fist!"

After hearing this, Xiao Quan Shi landed from the air and began to roll on the ground, getting faster and faster, even raising sand and dust.

Xiaogang looked at this scene and had his hands folded in front of his chest, feeling full of confidence.

The most powerful fighting method of his little fist stone is this combination of rolling and rounding. After it is successfully performed, as the rolling speed increases, the power of the collision will become higher and higher!

Right now, the situation is very favorable to him!

But Yun Xiao had no reaction when faced with Xiaogang's words.

He even felt a little dull in his heart.

Is it really the way to become round and roll...

Seeing Yun Xiao's behavior, Xiao Gang thought that the other party didn't know how to command, and he felt even more disappointed.

"Come on, Xiaoquanshi, kill him!"

"fist!"

The small fist stone rolled faster and faster on the ground, changed direction, and rushed straight towards the little fire dragon!

Seeing that the small fist stone was about to hit the small fire dragon, Yun Xiao's command sounded suddenly!

"Dodge, then use the metal claw!"

"fire!"

After receiving the order, Charmander once again showed extremely high reaction speed and agility, and directly avoided the oncoming small fist stone!

And almost at the same time, his claws, braving the dazzling white light, landed heavily on the little fist stone, directly knocking it away from the rolling state!

When the smoke and dust dispersed, the small fist stone had fallen to the ground, losing its ability to fight.

The expression on Xiaogang's face instantly changed from confident and proud to one of surprise.

The reversal happened so quickly that he still didn't react.

After a long while, he finally said with some doubts:

"Why? Your Charmander obviously has such strength and speed, but it still attacks with sparks that have no effect?"

Yun Xiao had already praised Charmander, put him back into the elf ball, and explained without raising his head:

"Oh? Sparks? Your little fist stone may be strong. If you are hit by Charmander's metal claw at full strength, wouldn't you be able to kill him instantly?"

After hearing his explanation, Xiaogang's eyelids couldn't help but twitch.

Can't...instant kill?

So that spark... is actually to reduce the physical strength of Xiao Fist Stone, so that his strong property will not be triggered for a while, so as not to be unable to kill instantly?

this...

He didn't know what to say for a moment... and even felt a little confused.

"Now that the battle is over...the badge."

Yun Xiaoyan reminded briefly and concisely.

Xiaogang finally came to his senses, took out a gray diamond-shaped badge, and stepped forward.

"I'm sorry for what I said just now. You are a very... outstanding trainer. I recognize you."

But he suddenly stopped again and was silent for a few seconds.

"It's just that before I give you the badge, I have a request. I wonder if you can listen to it?"

Yun Xiao frowned.

"What request?"

Xiaogang paused and said.

"Can I please take a trip to Yuejian Mountain?"
