Chapter 974 She Actually Knows Everything
Chapter 974 She Actually Knows Everything
"Thank you for your hard work!"
Upon reaching the finish line, Lu Minxi untied the straps binding her to the Fierce Arrow Eagle and patted its head.
The two of them climbed to the top together and received the golden medals!
"Congratulations! Visitor from afar! You can choose any three of these prizes!"
Amid applause, the old man in charge of presenting the awards came up with a long list of prizes, which even dragged on the ground!
Lu Minxi stared in disbelief as she took the list and looked at the densely packed items on it—
Poké Balls, Elixirs, various boosters, items of different attributes...
Suddenly, Lu Minxi's eyes widened as she looked at several sentences that were not so clearly described.
With its colorful core and double-colored glass beads, it seems to evoke special reactions from some spirits and also has great collectible value.
This description... isn't it really not a Mega Evolution Stone? It clearly is!
Lu Minxi continued reading, and just as expected, she saw descriptions of something that looked like a Z-Crystal and food that looked like a "Gigantamax Mushroom"?!
Are you so well prepared?
Lu Minxi browsed through the list, selected a few items, and then handed the list to Shen Yu, who was now standing in the runner-up position.
The two had already decided who would be the top two when they met above the clouds; it was just a matter of who would decide the champion and runner-up.
"Congratulations to another visitor from afar! You can choose two of these items~"
The old man helped Shen Yu pin the silver medal to his chest, and Shen Yu quickly returned the list, pointing to the two at the bottom.
A magical cardamom wreath and an unknown bouquet.
The cardamom wreath is mostly a tool used to evolve Slowpoke from the English region into Slowking. Shen Yu once promised the Sage that he would get some to study, and maybe he could find out the genetic differences between Slowkings from different regions and the specific characteristics of each Slowking... and then let the Sage learn some of the moves of the English region's Slowking.
Starting from one point and delving into the essence of life, and then reasoning out other aspects... I believe the Hippo Sage can definitely do this, and he is passionate about doing it.
Shen Yu didn't know what the other unknown bouquet was either. He'd see after he got it; maybe it could even advance Dongyao's overall research progress.
It was already 5:30 when they came down from the mountain. As it was getting late, Shen Yu and Lu Minxi decided to go back to the village first.
"Hey~ are you planning to go home today?"
The mountain wind was quite strong, so Lu Minxi pulled away from Shen Yu's arm and squeezed inside. After feeling that there was no cold wind surrounding her, she breathed a sigh of relief.
Shen Yu felt very warm, extremely warm, the warmth even emanating through his clothes.
"Hmm? Would you like to rest here for the night?"
"Hmm~ I was thinking... with Latias around, getting back to Medio Island shouldn't be too difficult, right? How about we go back tomorrow morning? We can sleep here tonight, the festival is so lively, maybe there will be even more fun things tonight!"
Lu Minxi grabbed the arm that had just been pulled away, her eyes full of anticipation.
"OK?"
Shen Yu had no reason to refuse such a request, so he nodded in agreement.
"Then let's go back and book a room first."
"Okay~"
Lu Minxi bounced around like a girl next door.
…………
"One room, thank you."
Shen Yu remained expressionless as he watched his mouth being tightly covered by a pair of soft, white hands, unable to even utter a sigh of helplessness.
No, I misspoke. This isn't some girl next door at all; she's a little devil.
Seeing that she had said everything she needed to say, Shen Yu gave up resisting and followed her upstairs...
Open the door.
Shen Yu was ready to face the Night of the Demon, but when he looked closely...
Twin room!
Turning to look at the champion girl, she clearly had the appearance of an older sister, but now she had a sly smile on her face like a little devil!
The girl walked into the room with her chin held high, then threw herself onto the soft, muscular bed and patted the spot next to her in front of the boy at the door.
"Come on~ I'll give you the chance to sleep in the same bed with me~"
Shen Yu slowly approached, making a fist with one hand.
"Boom!"
Lu Minxi:>?<~~
…………
The village of Yung-yoon is noticeably more lively at night. Although there are no festivals or ceremonies, food stalls line the village from one end to the other. Some local residents have even set up stalls in front of their homes to cook, and if anyone needs more, they can simply ask someone to go back inside and get it.
Several residents surrounded Shen Yu and Lu Minxi. They had come up to them after seeing the medals on their chests. After all, they were the champions and runners-up of the festival, and they would get discounts when they ate at restaurants along the street that evening.
There are so many people in this village. Lu Minxi could feel it during the day. There are at least two hundred people watching each festival, plus staff here and there... No wonder the streets are so lively now.
Lu Minxi took an extra-long skewer from the vendor, took a big bite, and immediately groaned from the heat.
"Ugh! Ouch! It's so hot, so hot...!"
Even in this state, she still wouldn't spit it out. She stubbornly rolled that piece of meat in her mouth for a while before chewing and swallowing it. After swallowing, she stuck out her little tongue, which was burning red from the heat, and fanned herself in a miserable manner.
Shen Yu couldn't help but chuckle. This scene was just as funny as watching Little Huba, who had been deprived of chicken legs for a day, helplessly watch Little Lily devour the chicken leg that was originally his.
*Pfft...* Shen Yu still didn't let Hu Pa go.
Shen Yu watched as Lu Minxi, who seemed to have developed a resistance to the heat, frantically attacked the large meat skewers, and the corners of his mouth gradually turned up.
"Shen Yu, let's go take a look at the clock tower ahead."
"Hmm?"
Shen Yu was still watching the mukbang livestream face-to-face when he heard her say that there was clearly something in her mouth, and he was taken aback.
Go up the clock tower?
Good heavens, thank goodness that clock tower was real, otherwise it would have exploded by now if it were a texture!
Immediately afterward, before Shen Yu could even instruct the staff outside to turn on the lights for the clock tower, Lu Minxi grabbed Shen Yu's hand and ran towards the central clock tower—
Fortunately, someone was watching them at all times, and when Shen Yu arrived at the foot of the clock tower, the lights in the corridor were already on.
Lu Minxi kept walking, pulling Shen Yu up the steps to the top of the clock tower.
A bird's-eye view of the night scene reveals a brightly lit city, filled with singing and dancing.
The clock tower, far from the bustling city, enveloped both of them in a sense of tranquility.
The night at the end of March embraced a gentle breeze, caressing the girl's cheek and whispering soft murmurs to the boy's ear without permission.
"Shen Yu, there's something I've wanted to ask you all day, I've been thinking about it since this morning."
"Well, you said."
"How did they manage to do all this?"
The boy didn't think much of it, but instead watched the elves at the night market stalls, greeting customers alongside humans with their comical and energetic movements.
"Boundaries and love. Because of these bonds, we can support each other in life; because of love, we haven't lost faith in the world."
Shen Yu thought that her answer was appropriate for the current situation, but she didn't expect her to burst out laughing.
That's not what I was asking~
"I'm asking you, how exactly did you create this village...? This definitely isn't a village in an undeveloped area. Where are we now?"
Stopped abruptly.
Shen Yu turned to look at her, only to find that she had already turned her head away at some point, resting her chin on one hand, smiling broadly.
"Stunned? You think your plan is flawless?"
Her smile remained sly. She turned half her body around, slightly raised her hand, and flicked Shen Yu's nose... Then, with a sudden burst of strength, she grabbed his collar, pulled his body in front of her, and brought her face close to his.
"Do you really think a girl who's an ice cream connoisseur wouldn't be able to tell that it's someone else's creation? After this girl has been completely molded into his shape?"
