Big raindrops hit the glass, making a crisp sound.
Soraya clung to the cold window, looking out at the rain curtain that seemed to cut off the world, and was lost in thought.
In the past, Soraya hated rainy days the most.
There were few places to take shelter in the wild, and those places were occupied by elves far more powerful than him.
This is true even for the shelter from the rain that I discovered first.
The rain will not only wet Soraya's hair, causing inconvenience in movement, but may also cause serious consequences such as catching a cold.
Every time it rains, it is a test for Zoroa no less than an encounter with a powerful and malicious spirit.
But those are all things of the past.
Soraya turned around, ran back to the warm bed, passed over Chirulian who was sleeping peacefully next to Xia Chen, and nestled on the other side of Xia Chen.
In fact, Soraya didn't feel too sleepy, she just simply liked this feeling of peace of mind.
I don't know if it was the sound of rain outside the window or Soraya's movements that made Xia Chen wake up.
As usual, he stared at the ceiling in a daze for a while, then he stood upright and climbed out of bed.
After all, this is June, not December, where people can be firmly locked in bed. Getting up is not particularly difficult.
Picking up the two little guys who were obviously awake but still pretending to sleep, Xia Chen yawned and walked into the bathroom, taking them to wash up.
After Lalulas evolved into Kirulian, Xia Chen no longer had to worry about this kind of thing, but the short-legged Zoroa still couldn't do without Xia Chen's help.
After struggling for nearly ten minutes, Xia Chen led them downstairs for breakfast.
In the hall, Xianbu was leaning on the sofa in a boss-lying position, crossing his legs and watching the morning news.
Just like a parent who sees his child smoking, Xia Chen originally wanted to go up and scold him.
But when Senbu made this seemingly street-like action, it felt inexplicably cute.
Shaking his head helplessly, Xia Chen could only lament that if he is good-looking, he can do whatever he wants.
…………
Because it rained and she didn't have to go out for a morning run, Xia Chen saved a lot of time and made a hearty breakfast.
Looking at the table full of delicacies, Xia Chen nodded with satisfaction and said to the little fox beside him: "Soraya, go ask Menas to come down for dinner."
Usually that guy doesn't need to call and always comes down to eat on time. Maybe it's because of the heavy rain today. I guess he was quite excited about playing in the water on the top floor and hasn't come down yet.
"Yo~"
Zoroa responded and hurried up.
Two minutes later, Xia Chen and the elves sat around the dining table and ate breakfast with the sound of rain pattering outside the window and the beautiful sound of the female host announcing the news on the TV.
"Today is June 6th, the first day of the college entrance examination. It rained heavily in a large area of our city. In order to reduce road congestion, the alliance and the police station sent hundreds of elite elves to use sunny weather on key road sections.
The college entrance examination students are escorted..."
Hey, have you taken the college entrance examination today?
Xia Chen, a senior high school student, only reacted when he heard the news on TV. It seems that the college entrance examination in this world is also happening these days.
Six, seven, eight, homophonic, let’s admit it.
It's not superstitious, just a beautiful blessing.
But this has nothing to do with Xia Chen. As the first place in Beijing University's admissions competition, he has not been to school for a long time except for that homecoming speech.
"Yesterday, the beautiful energy cube developed by Xia Chen, a well-known and outstanding elf scholar in our city, finally went on the market after much anticipation. You can see a rush of buying in all major elf department stores. It is estimated that only in the Donghuang area,
Shipments on the first day exceeded one million boxes."
Listening to the news on TV, Xia Chen took a sip of the soup and felt warm from his stomach to his heart, feeling extremely comfortable.
After more than half a year of preparation, the money printing machine finally started.
To be honest, Xia Chen had thought that the Beauty Ability Cube would sell well, but he didn't expect it to be so good.
According to the information Jiang Qian gave him, almost all sales locations were sold out as soon as they were put on the shelves.
There are even energy cubes on the second-hand market that are several times higher than the official selling price. What is outrageous is that there are still people buying them.
In fact, the production capacity of the energy cube factory newly built this year is sufficient, but it needs to be supplied not only to the Donghuang area, but also to nine other areas.
As a result, this output is somewhat stretched.
But Xia Chen couldn't outsource this kind of thing to other companies.
Although your "secret formula" will be dug out by experienced masters sooner or later, if you delay for one more day, you can earn one more day of monopoly money.
Xia Chen wants to earn a few small goals before going to college.
In the future, as the market becomes saturated and competitors emerge, it will not be as easy to make money as it is now.
…………
After the news was broadcast, Xia Chen and the elves just finished their breakfast.
Kirulian used her telekinesis to transport the dishes to the kitchen, and then handed them to Menas to wash the dishes with hot water.
Although it may seem a bit strange to use the water from Menas's mouth to do this, in fact, the water converted through energy is much cleaner than ordinary water.
If there is no mental disorder, there is no problem in drinking from mouth to mouth.
After taking care of the trivial matters after breakfast, Xia Chen took the elves to the elf training hall not far from home for daily training.
The reason for going to the gym instead of training in the yard isn't just the rain.
As the elves became increasingly powerful, Xia Chen discovered several times that the elves were using their tricks to destroy their families, especially the two guys, Menas and Xianbu.
Let the elves pay attention. They felt that this would restrict their performance, so in the month after returning to Donghuang, Xia Chen has been training in the training hall.
Xia Chen has actually considered moving to a large house with a garden, a training hall and a battlefield.
But after some consideration, I gave up.
On the one hand, I still lack financial strength. Although I did earn a lot during this period, most of it was elf cultivation resources, and the cash was definitely not enough to buy an ideal house.
This chapter is not finished yet, please click the next page to continue reading the exciting content! The Beautiful Energy Cube has just been launched, and the money earned will probably be used to expand the factory. There is a high probability that there will be no spare money for a while.
Of course, if Xia Chen wanted to buy it, he could definitely get a new home by taking out a loan, but after thinking about it, he still felt it was not necessary.
In the next few years, I will go to college abroad and not go home much. Wouldn’t it be nice to just start a Taoist gym after graduation?
There is a reason why Xia Chen is so confident that he can open a gym after graduation.
The requirement for opening a gym is that apart from the fact that the strength must reach the gym level, the most important thing is reputation. Otherwise, if there are so many trainers in an area who have reached the gym level, why can only so few people become gym leaders?
Xia Chen's current situation is that his reputation is barely enough, but his strength is far from enough.
But in four years, Xia Chen was fully confident that he would reach the gym level.
Moreover, among the seventeen gyms in Donghuang, there happens to be no gym with the fairy attribute that just appeared.
As a person who discovered the evolved form of Eevee's fairy attributes, it is a reasonable thing for me to become the leader of a fairy gym, right?
In short, whether you are moving towards the goal of becoming a gym leader, or in the longer term, protecting yourself and everyone you care about is inseparable from strength.
Striving to improve our strength is still the top priority at the moment.
——————
Spirit world.
The gray sky is still dark, but compared with the barren and almost barren environment when Zoroa first entered the spirit world, there are things like mountains and rivers on the ground that only exist in the outside world.
Soraya no longer knew how long she had been in the spirit world. After a long period of adjustment, she found that spending four hours a day in the spirit world was most suitable.
No matter how long it takes, your current physical condition may not be able to bear it.
Based on four hours a day, there are probably more than 600 hours, right?
During this long period of time, Soraya has left the original "newbie village" and entered the real spiritual world.
There are flowers, trees, mountains and rivers here just like the outside world, but what supports the growth of these lives is the wisps of soul energy permeating the air.
As the exploration deepened, Zoroa gradually encountered other entities that make up this world.
In addition to those dead souls who are now proficient in physical salvation, there are also higher-level life forms and even elves in the spiritual world.
Zoroa once saw a ghost sucking souls from a distance, and when she observed the other person, the ghost also noticed her keenly.
The eyes full of evil made Zoroa shudder, and then she escaped from Ghost Stone's sight without looking back.
From then on, Zoroa understood the cruel laws of survival in the spiritual world. She also tried her best to avoid those elves with command, and instead hunted the souls of the dead who had no power but no brains.
At the moment, Zoroa is in a fierce battle with a super-powered elf soul whose strength in life was almost at the gym level.
Although there is a huge difference in strength, Zoroa has the advantage of being able to travel back and forth between the spiritual world and the outside world to replenish energy, while his stupid opponent can only gradually lose the power of his soul as he consumes it bit by bit.
After spending nearly forty hours, this big guy without wisdom finally ran out of oil.
Jumping up nimbly to dodge the mental force released by his soul body, Zoroa fired a shadow ball with his backhand.
The ghost energy full of resentment eroded ruthlessly, and the soul body that had become almost transparent was twisted in pain.
After a few seconds, the soul body finally dissipated completely, and what appeared next was a soul fragment that exuded fluorescent light.
…………
In an unknown space filled with gray fog.
Perhaps due to the constant watering of soul fragments, that small sapling was growing slowly but surely just like Zoroa.
Over the course of several months, Zoroa invested thousands of soul fragments into this tree, most of which were used to exchange for tickets to the spirit world, but she also often put them into the branches of [Dark Harvest].
Move Fruit is not the only thing that can be redeemed from Dark Harvest. Strictly speaking, only the soul fragments produced by elves who were strong enough during their lifetime can produce such precious things.
Anyway, since the [Charged Flame Attack Fruit] that the elite-level Heiluga exchanged last time, Zoroa has not exchanged any other move fruits.
But this does not mean that you cannot exchange for good things, such as special attack fruit, defense fruit, speed fruit... Various fruits that improve basic abilities can also make Zoroa grow rapidly.
However, as a result, there are far fewer soul fragments available for redeeming tickets to the spirit world.
And this time, for the entire forty hours, Zoroa spent all of it conquering that powerful soul body, without producing any soul fragments.
The inventory of spiritual time is running low.
But even so, Zoroa still put the soul fragment that took forty hours into the branch representing [Dark Harvest] without hesitation.
Flowering, fruiting, maturing, following a familiar process, a heavy pink-purple fruit appeared on the branches.
Zoroa took a deep breath, nervously and expectantly extracting the information about the fruit.
[Meditation Fruit: After eating it, you can master the meditation technique.]
It was successful, it was indeed the fruit of the move!
And this is the trick of meditation!
Zoroa felt joyful in his heart.
In fact, Soraya was able to learn the meditation technique, so she was not happy for herself. Her goal was never to redeem the technique for herself.
Soraya killed that super-type soul body at all costs just to get a super-type move fruit for Xia Chen!
And now, I finally got it!
Zoroa clutched the fruit tightly, with an indescribable light shining in his eyes.
…………
Returning to the real world, Soraya realized a serious problem...
How to make Xia Chen eat the fruit of this move?
Squeeze it into tree juice and trick him into drinking it?
But what if it loses its effectiveness?
In the same way, cutting it into pieces and mixing it into the fruit plate seems to be the same.
After thinking about it, if Xia Chen wants to eat this fruit that does not exist in this world, he can only rely on his trust in himself.
With this in mind, Soraya walked up to Xia Chen, who was playing doubles with Senbu in front of the computer.
"Bu Yi——(Be careful where you move, don't keep being sucked into this washing machine!)"
"Buyi! (How can your hands be so stupid? I can play with silk better than you!)"
Xia Chen, who was beaten to pieces by the fairy cloth, caught a glimpse of Zoroa who seemed to be looking for him out of the corner of his eye, and swung the handle.
"We'll play again later. Zoroa comes to see me if he has something to do."
Xianbu rolled his eyes, took the handle thrown by Xia Chen, and played a two-player game with his hands and silk at the same time.
The level that had been stuck for them for a long time was cleared immediately by Senbu alone.
Xia Chen just pretended not to see it, turned his head without blushing, and picked up Zoroa who was patiently waiting for him.
After sucking on the little fox's plush and soft body for a long time, Xia Chen asked: "What's wrong? Is something wrong?"
"Yo~"
Zoroa nodded, took out a pink-purple fruit from his arms, and handed it to Xia Chen.
Xia Chen subconsciously took it, but suddenly discovered a question, where did this come from?
Obviously Soraya didn't take anything when he came here...
And this kind of tree fruit...how come I have never seen it before?
Due to his research on energy cubes, Xia Chen has a very in-depth knowledge of tree fruits, but he has never seen this kind of tree fruit.
Undoubtedly, these doubts can only be explained by one reason, and that is the secret hidden by our own elves!
And today, can we finally know what is hidden behind the mysterious veil?
After calming down his excitement, Xia Chen asked: "So, this fruit is for me to eat?"
