Chapter 342 Shenhao System is at your service wholeheartedly~
"Hello, I am the self-service robot of Oliva Elf Restaurant. Your consumption this time is 25238 Elf Coins. Please choose your payment method."
An emotionless mechanical voice came from the robot.
"cash payment."
As he said that, Xia Chen took out several banknotes from his wallet, as well as dozens of coins that he had prepared. The clanking sound was loud and clear.
At the same time, he manipulated his superpower to monitor Suo Cailing's movements.
Not surprisingly, a little elf in the corner immediately became excited when he saw the coin in Xia Chen's hand, and his spirit fluctuated greatly for a moment.
And its body came closer without its own control.
Under the temptation of so many coins, the current Suo Cailing is brainless.
Besides, it is not afraid of traps.
After traveling all over the country for so many years, Suo Cai Ling's strength may not even be able to beat the Lada in the sewers, but when it comes to the ability to escape, it was developed on the edge of being beaten again and again.
Having stolen hundreds of coins, he was caught in the act many times, but each time, he was able to escape successfully.
This time, I won’t miss it!
With this thought in mind, Suo Cailing quietly and quickly approached the target direction.
Not only the escape speed, Suo Cailing itself is also very fast.
Thief, if you don't strike quickly, what should you do if you miss the fleeting opportunity?
Rushing over at a trot as usual, Suo Cailing activated the ghost energy in his body at the same time, preparing to interfere with the victim.
The principle of interference is not difficult, it is a simple illusion that ghost elves are very good at.
It can be regarded as a youthful version of the illusion that Xia Chen experienced in the abandoned hotel when traveling in the Carlos area. After all, the strength of this wealth-seeking spirit is much inferior to that of the dream monster.
But it's enough to deal with one human being.
Energy spread in a small area, the mini illusion instantly condensed, and Suo Cai Ling took away the five coins from the human's hand as usual.
Why I only took five pieces instead of more? It’s not that it follows the “ethics of stealing.” The main reason is that it can’t hold any more...
Glancing at the remaining coins in the human's hand, Suo Cailing reluctantly turned around and prepared to take off with the five coins in her arms.
However, the moment it opened its legs, it discovered something terrible.
His body seems unable to move...
To be precise, the space around him suddenly became extremely viscous, making it difficult for Suo Cai Ling to move.
The speed it was so proud of has failed!
Suo Cailing was confused, what kind of move is this?
Even though his speed ability has not been reduced or affected in any way, why can he suddenly be unable to run?
No, this is not the key. The key is, how do you escape?
At this time, Suo Cailing finally realized that this was a dragnet specially laid for it.
But it was too late to react at this time.
"sticky--"
A long dragging sound came, and Suo Cailing looked up, only to see a pale purple jelly flying towards him at an extremely fast speed.
On the other side, two white satin pieces with blue-pink ends also whirred and whipped towards their position.
There is a wolf in front of me and a tiger behind me, so I can't run away.
Suo Cailing sighed, my life is at an end!
…………
"Thank you for helping our restaurant solve this troublesome matter. In return, I will help you get rid of your order tonight."
Seeing the evil-doing Suo Cailing being knocked unconscious and imprisoned in an elf ball, the restaurant manager expressed his gratitude to Xia Chen.
Although a fortune-seeking spirit would have to steal the Year of the Monkey and the Moon of the Horse before he could invest the money for Xia Chen's meal tonight, the important thing is not the few coins, but the dining experience of the guests in the restaurant.
Therefore, the manager thought it was not an exaggeration to waive the order for this customer.
Xia Chen did not reject the other party's kindness and said with a smile: "Thank you very much. Everyone will get what they need. I also happen to want to tame a wealth-seeking spirit."
Although he didn't understand why Xia Chen wanted to conquer this elf, which had no other advantages besides being able to run, the restaurant manager still smiled and nodded.
"Understood, then, welcome to Oliva Elf Restaurant next time!"
As they said goodbye, Xia Chen and Ming Yi took the elves out of the restaurant and headed to the Niangguang Hotel on the top floors of Niangguang Tower to check in.
As you can tell from the hotel name and location, this is the best hotel in Nianguang City, and the price is naturally high.
But Xia Chen doesn't care about this anymore. To him, money is just a string of numbers.
His ultimate ideal is to enjoy life peacefully with the elves, and of course he would not treat himself and Mingyi badly at this time.
So, he opened two elf suites very grandly.
Unfortunately, it was the peak travel season and the rooms in the Niangguang Hotel were fully booked. The front desk regretfully informed that there was only one room left.
Xia Chen, who was anxious to get Suo Cailing, didn't bother to look for another place to stay. After paying and getting the key, he and Ming Yi walked to the hotel.
Looking at the hurried backs of the young couple, the receptionist showed a smile that concealed his success and fame.
"What are you doing by subduing Suo Cai Ling? Cultivating it into your next main elf?"
In the room, Mingyi asked curiously.
Xia Chen shook his head slightly and replied: "Currently it is only used for elf research. As for the main elf...it depends on the situation. We must subdue this guy first."
Although Suo Cailing is now in Xia Chen's elf ball, it does not mean that he has successfully conquered Suo Cailing.
The Poké Ball has no brainwashing effect, so if the money-seeking spirit doesn't want to, it can escape at any time.
In the animation, Ash's croaking frog and arrogant snake both escaped from the original trainer's poke ball.
It would be easy for an elf like Suo Cailing to escape, so Xia Chen decided to have a heart-to-heart talk with it.
"Okay, then you chat with it first, and I'll take a bath."
Mingyi stretched out, revealing full curves that were completely different from those of an eighteen-year-old girl.
"Well, you go ahead."
Xia Chen replied casually, thinking about how to persuade Suo Cailing to become his elf.
Mingyi, who glanced sideways to observe Xia Chen's reaction, was slightly frustrated.
This guy... sometimes I really don't understand what's going on in his head.
This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading!…………
There was an ambiguous sound of rushing water in the bathroom, but Xia Chen threw a Poké Ball without any distractions.
White light flashed, the pure white skirt fluttered, and Gardevoir appeared in the room.
"Gardevoir, help open up the magic space again."
Although Suo Cailing should be in poor condition at this time, we still need to prevent the possibility of it escaping.
"Sana~"
Gardevoir responded, and not long after, strange energy ripples suddenly appeared in the space. An invisible barrier appeared in this space, and the magic space was completed.
He also called for Niannibao as an anchor to exchange speed with Suo Cai Ling, and then Xia Chen threw out the still-warm elf ball in his hand.
A white light flashed, and the unconscious coin-carrying villain appeared in the magic space in front of him.
Seeing Suo Cailing holding the five coins and not letting go even after being knocked unconscious, Xia Chen shook his head angrily and amusedly.
What a miser...
"Gardevoir, give it a healing wave."
It is true that Suo Cai Ling is a weak race. He was pressed by Nian Nian Bao in the restaurant, and the silk fabric of the fairy cloth was slapped and he lost his fighting ability.
Xia Chen felt that if it were to be put into the game, this guy's racial value would be at most 300, plus a small half of it would be allocated to speed, so one can imagine how low his durability would be.
After being cured by pink super energy particles, Suo Cailing slowly woke up.
"Jiwa!"
Suo Cailing, who had just woken up, was obviously in a state of stress and yelled in an intense mood.
Xia Chen ignored it and let it understand its current situation.
After being stunned for two seconds, it realized that it was now a prisoner.
The instinct of the body made Suo Cailing want to run away, but soon, it found itself in that weird space again.
The powerlessness of having no way to go to the sky and no way to reach the earth made Suo Cailing deeply frustrated. It raised its head and looked at Xia Chen. After struggling for a while, it finally reluctantly handed over the five coins it was holding tightly in its hands.
Although its name is Suo Cailing, it still knows whether money or life is more important.
"Wow! (Don't kill me, I'll give you all the coins!)"
Xia Chen understood what Suo Cailing wanted to express from its fearful tone. He hummed and smiled, "Hu Tu! If I kill you, won't the coins also belong to me?"
Suo Cailing was stunned, as if...that was what happened.
Wait, is this human really planning to kill himself?
Didn't he just steal 500? It shouldn't be that big of a deal...
It's hard to say, what if this human being had a lot of money stolen by other wealth-seeking spirits before, and would vent his anger on himself.
It's not impossible...
…………
While Suo Cailing was feeling anxious, Xia Chen coughed and continued: "You should know that you have stolen too many coins in this city and have done many evil things. You have committed more than just stealing these five coins from me.
That’s all.”
This is an achievement that the guy who wears shorts and runs around in the wild all day long will never be able to achieve in his life.
Human beings are creatures that are good at creating illusions!
Little Lada finally concluded like this.
When his thoughts returned to the present, Suo Cailing couldn't help but consider what Xia Chen said.
Becoming the first to evolve, isn't it the same as becoming a champion? It's the kind of thing only a fool would believe!
Suo Cai Ling was certainly not a fool, so he stopped what he was about to do.
Then he sneered: "Wow! (It seems like a good proposal...but, I refuse!)"
Xia Chen didn't know whether to laugh or cry. This guy must be too vigilant...
Although the method of evolution itself is a bit uncertain, what he said is true.
There is no other way but to use the last resort.
"Originally I didn't want to do things so perfectly."
Xia Chen sighed softly and said slowly: "I didn't want the relationship between us to become so dirty, but since you don't want to get involved..."
Dirty? What is dirty?
Under Suo Cailing's surprise, Xia Chen slowly raised five fingers.
"As long as you become my elf, I will give you five coins of one hundred face value every day, and there will be more good things you can't imagine, how about it?"
Suo Cailing: "!"
As soon as he heard the coin, Suo Cailing immediately jumped up from his lying state, and the two antennae-like antennae on his head also instantly branched out.
There is no doubt that this condition directly pokes Suo Cailing's weakness.
Evolution, the future, are all imaginary, only coins are real!
Wait, is this guy trying to paint a bigger picture for himself again?
500 per day, which is 15,000 per month. How can a normal person have so much money? Moreover, he still gives himself an elf with almost no fighting power and no room for growth.
Facing Suo Cailing's vigilant gaze, Xia Chen smiled slightly and said, "There is no need to doubt my financial resources. The assets I own, converted into coins, are enough to fill the entire room."
Xia Chen didn't know how many coins it would take to fill the entire room, but he just blew it and it was done.
First, give this guy who has never seen the market a little capitalist shock.
Suo Cailing was shocked as expected, but besides being shocked, he was more suspicious.
Filling the entire room with coins is a scam, right?
Faced with doubts, Xia Chen didn't waste any time. He took out a large box of coins that he had already prepared from the storage ball and poured it directly in front of Suo Cailing.
The beautiful sound of the coins clanking was like the sound of nature in Suo Cailing's ears. It stared at the pile of coins in front of it with bright eyes, as if it was in heaven.
Just as it was about to dive into the ocean of coins, a piece of silk tied its body in time.
Suo Cailing looked at the coin that was so close but couldn't touch it. There were literally ten thousand ants crawling all over his body.
At the same time, a demonic voice lingered in its ears.
"How about it, do you want to consider becoming my elf again?"
After all, Suo Cailing's will failed to defeat his desire, and he bowed his head slumped.
"Ji wow... (I am willing...)"
The days of freedom can never go back...
But there is no way, he gave too much...
…………
"Gardevoir, the magic space is closed. Let's welcome our new partners."
"Sana~"
Listening to the conversation between Xia Chen and Gardevoir, Suo Cailing understood that the move that restrained him was called Magic Space.
Although Suo Cailing had never been exposed to elf battles before and had no idea about the division of strength, he could vaguely guess that if he could master such a powerful move, the elf must be very strong.
Is my trainer actually so strong...
As the energy dissipated, the viscous space disappeared, and the air seemed to circulate normally.
The silk that bound Suo Cai Ling was also loosened, and it rushed into the pile of coins that it coveted without any hindrance.
Coins...shiny coins...my favorite coins...
Suo Cailing swam among the piles of gold coins, feeling the simplest and purest happiness.
But it didn't notice that several black shadows silently surrounded it.
By the time Suo Cai Ling came back to his senses from the immersion in happiness, six elves had already formed a circle, surrounding him in the middle.
"...Jiwa? (What...are you going to do?)"
Suo Cailing looked at these elves who were far stronger than him with a little guilt, not understanding what they wanted to do.
The pink-white elf at the head, whom he had never seen before, suddenly grinned and revealed a pair of small fangs.
"Buyi~ (Welcome to the team, I am the boss of the team, just call me Xianbu~ I accidentally injured you when I caught you just now, please don't take it personally. When you become stronger in the future, you are welcome to fight
return.)"
"Fuwu! (Welcome to the team, I see my original shadow in you, don't worry, it doesn't matter if you are weak now, as long as you believe in Xia Chen, you will become stronger, for sure!)"
This is a very big Meena, many times bigger than me, and countless times more beautiful in appearance.
"Sanai~ (If a voice suddenly appears in your head, don't panic, it's normal~)"
The powerful Gardevoir who could do space magic said some strange words that he couldn't understand.
"Suo... (If you want to learn any moves, or if you need my help, you can come to me...)"
A handsome and sassy humanoid demon fox said the most heart-warming words in the coldest tone.
"Messi~ (You came in a hurry, I didn't prepare any gifts, but I will definitely make up for you in a few days~)"
Mecia, a dragon about the same age as himself, said this in the tone of an old-timer.
"Nian——(I don't know what to say, but in short, Xia Chen is a very good person, welcome to join the team!)"
The purple jelly that once attacked him at extremely fast speeds stretched out its tentacles and touched him.
Suo Cailing: "..."
After doing this for so long, are you actually welcoming me to join the team?
However, this feeling doesn't seem to be bad...
…………
"Hey, have you conquered it already? So quickly?"
Mingyi's face was flushed red after just taking a bath, and she was so delicate that water would come out if she pinched her.
She wiped her wet hair while asking about the story of Xia Chen and Suo Cailing while she was taking a bath.
This chapter is not finished yet, please click the next page to continue reading the exciting content! Xia Chen glanced sideways at the soft and bouncy things on Mingyi's chest that moved lively with the movements of his hands, and judged based on experience...
This girl seems to be wearing only pajamas.
Damn it, I really don’t think my childhood sweetheart is a man!
Although he thought so, Xia Chen still shrank his butt slightly and tried not to make his weapon too conspicuous.
After coughing slightly, he replied: "Well, the conversation went quite smoothly, and we get along very well now."
Suo Cailing nodded in agreement.
He gave me the coins and everything he said was right.
"Oh, that's good. Speaking of which, when you mentioned elf research just now, did you mean research on evolution?"
Mingyi asked curiously.
Xia Chen rubbed his brows in distress, "Although this research direction is correct, I don't have any clues at the moment. I can only explore while traveling."
Suo Cailing on the side curled his lips and didn't even have a clue. What he said about evolution before was indeed a piece of cake.
"It doesn't matter, take your time, I will accompany you."
Mingyi, who was wiping her hair on the bed, knelt down behind Xia Chen and pressed her thumbs gently on his temples to relieve his fatigue.
The fragrance penetrated into his nose, and the girl's wet hair rested on her cheek, as if a kitten was scratching her. The slight itching feeling made Xia Chen's heart flutter inexplicably.
"Are you comfortable?" Mingyi breathed into her ear.
"Um..."
Xia Chen answered honestly.
Although the massage technique was far inferior to Gardevoir, the softness on the back of his head made him feel like he was on a big ball of cotton, wishing he could sink deeper into it.
This is too foul...
No, you will make a mistake if you continue like this!
At the critical moment, Xia Chen's will defeated his desire. He hurriedly stood up from Ming Yi's arms, bent down and rushed towards the bathroom.
"I went to take a shower..."
Ming Yi touched her already hot cheek and felt her heart beating very fast.
She looked at Xia Chen's running away in embarrassment, her eyes filled with determination.
This trip must be...
…………
The elf suite is very large, and it doesn't feel crowded at all if two people and ten elves live there.
Xia Chen didn't dare to sleep on the same bed as Ming Yi, so he ran to the living room holding the quilt.
Although the sofas in luxury hotels are soft, their size is still far behind the beds.
Gardevoir, who still wanted to squeeze into one sofa with Xia Chen, was mercilessly driven to another sofa.
Xianbu and Niannibao were huddled on the carpet nearby. Only Suo Cailing, who had just joined the team, was not used to being so close and hid in a corner in a daze.
It was thinking back on this day, or to be precise, the wonderful experience of this night.
Obviously a few hours ago, he was a weak wild elf that no one would think of taming, but now he was tamed by a powerful trainer.
Although...their current relationship is more like a boss and a worker.
You provide him with the opportunity to study evolution, and he gives you his favorite coin.
But after joining the team, the sincere welcome given by the seniors in the team gave Suo Cailing an unrealistic fantasy.
It's like having a home...
But, could this be true?
Suo Cailing then thought about the Rattata that was abandoned by the human trainer and returned to the sewer. Because it could not evolve, it became the trainer's excuse for never winning a battle, and then abandoned it.
Would you also be treated like this?
It's like being abandoned because you haven't been able to evolve and you're too weak...
While he was thinking wildly, Suo Cailing saw the beautiful dragon snake gliding towards him.
The silver-blue light outside the glass curtain wall shines on his fine white jade-like scales, exuding a gorgeous azure color.
Suo Cailing stared blankly at Menas approaching him, not understanding what he wanted to do.
"Fuwu——(I can feel your confusion and hesitation, are you afraid of something?)"
The clear sound of Menas is as moving as the roar of a dragon.
Feeling the kindness emanating from this senior, Suo Cailing hesitated and nodded.
…………
Menas slowly leaned forward, his long rose-red eyebrows hanging on the ground, and he looked softly at the new partner in front of him.
"Fuwu? (Do you know the elf Ugly Fish?)"
Suo Cailing shook his head. He had always lived in the city and didn't know any fish spirits in the water.
"Fuwu——(The ugly fish is an ugly and weak elf. Its body is the most inconspicuous gray color, its surface is pitted, and its eyes are dull and not at all agile. Even among all aquatic elves,
, it is also the least popular elf.)"
For some reason, Suo Cailing always felt that Menas' tone was slightly nostalgic.
But why is he suddenly telling himself this?
Menas suddenly asked: "Fuwu? (Do you want to believe that Xia Chen can conquer such an elf?)"
Suo Cailing shook his head subconsciously, "Ji wow...(shouldn't be... right?)"
Xia Chen's elves are all powerful and beautiful. Even the two elves that have not yet fully grown up are late-blooming elves with a bright future, unlike himself...
"Fuwu...(But he finally subdued an ugly fish...)"
Menas's words made Suo Cai Ling, who was becoming more and more inferior to himself, raise his head. It looked at Menas in surprise with a nostalgic look in its eyes, and suddenly understood.
"Jiwa? (Are you the one that evolved from the ugly fish?)"
Menas nodded, "Fuwu——(I don't want to give you any big ideas. The Ugly Fish can evolve into Menas because it has this gene in its body, but the green caterpillar can never evolve.
For Rayquaza.)"
"Fuwu——(But Xia Chen must have his considerations in choosing you. If you are willing to believe in him, you will definitely be able to become what you ideally want. I am very glad that I entered him in that river.
Poké ball, if I had made a different choice, I might still be the ugly fish that bullies every fish.)"
"Fuwu——(So, I hope you don't have any regrets and think about it again.)"
After saying that, Menas returned to the sofa where Xia Chen slept and curled up.
Only Suo Cailing was left thinking about the last few words he said.
Believe in Xia Chen and complete the transformation?
Anyway, we are already at the bottom, and no matter how we go, we are always going up, so...
Can you really try it?
When Suo Cailing made his choice in his heart, an indistinguishable voice suddenly sounded in his mind.
[Dear host, Shenhao System is here to serve you wholeheartedly~]
