Chapter 63: Speed Activation Potion
A light, refreshing drizzle fell, and Lu Li simultaneously used the Spirit Nourishing Technique on the surrounding land. Tropius’s eyes were covered in green energy, and the green energy even enveloped the entire Sitou Fruit tree.
Two minutes later…
The originally somewhat green Sitou Fruits slowly turned orange-red. Seeing this, Lu Li hurriedly shouted to the Bidoof Leader nearby: “Bidoof! Quickly have your companions harvest these fruits.”
The “dumbfounded” Bidoof Leader couldn’t afford to be surprised and belatedly ordered the Pidgey to harvest the Sitou Fruits from the tree.
The seven Pidgey that received the order acted together, harvesting all the Sitou Fruits from the tree in less than a minute.
The harvested Sitou Fruits were all placed on the ground in front of Lu Li.
All 20 fruits were Normal Grade. For a wild Sitou Fruit tree, this was another miracle.
Looking at the Berries in front of him, Lu Li muttered to himself: “There aren’t any poor quality ones. Is it because of the three farming techniques?”
Normally, at least half of these 20 Sitou Fruits should be poor quality, after all, it’s just a wild Sitou Fruit tree.
The Bidoof Leader, recovering from the shock, looked at the Sitou Fruits in front of Lu Li with full desire.
Sensing the Bidoof Leader’s gaze, Lu Li asked: “Are you sure you want to use the Sitou Fruit?”
Bidoof nodded without hesitation.
Its life was already nearing its end. If it couldn’t break through to the Elite Stage within 10 years, its lifespan would only be 10 years.
At this point, there was no question of daring or not.
“Here you go.”
Lu Li directly handed a Sitou Fruit to Bidoof.
The market price of a Normal Sitou Fruit was around 500,000, roughly the same as those high-quality Pokémon Items.
After throwing away 500,000, Lu Li didn’t feel heartbroken at all.
Although everything in the wilderness was unclaimed, the Bidoof had guarded here for so long, and plus this Bidoof Leader was a Pokémon with a story.
Lu Li decided to fulfill the other party.
After not lacking money, many things became more important than money.
Ignoring the shell of the Sitou Fruit, Bidoof swallowed it in one gulp.
As soon as the Sitou Fruit entered its stomach, Bidoof kicked hard and then fell stiffly to the ground.
Looking at the Bidoof Leader lying stiffly on the ground, Lu Li said in some stunned regret: “Did it fail?”
Thinking the Bidoof Leader hadn’t made it, Lu Li felt it was a pity.
The originally stiff Bidoof Leader suddenly bounced up from the ground like it was electrocuted, gasping for air with a look of having survived a disaster.
Lu Li congratulated the Bidoof Leader that had come back to life: “Congratulations, it seems you made it through.”
Bidoof called out gratefully.
With both Life Energy and Flying Type energy already accumulated enough, after activating its Speed potential, Bidoof’s strength smoothly advanced to Veteran Level Late Stage.
Although Elite Level was still far away, it was at least not as hopeless as before.
Seeing Bidoof successfully break through, Lu Li instantly had another idea.
“Bidoof, want to make a deal?” Lu Li asked with a smile.
Bidoof looked at Lu Li in confusion, not understanding what this magical and powerful Trainer could possibly covet from it.
Lu Li asked with a smile: “I’ll give you five Sitou Fruits every year, and in return, you help me guard the Sitou Fruit tree here, how about that?”
The Bidoof Leader didn’t hesitate and directly agreed to Lu Li’s deal.
After all, their Nest was originally here, and guarding the Sitou Fruit tree was no different from guarding home, so Bidoof agreed without hesitation.
But for some reason, Bidoof always felt something was off.
Seeing Bidoof agree to the deal, Lu Li nodded in satisfaction.
There was no question of being despicable or not. After all, he hadn’t said before that he would only take the Sitou Fruits once. According to wilderness rules, this Sitou Fruit tree now belonged to him, Lu Li, and the future Sitou Fruits naturally belonged to him too.
After the deal was reached, Lu Li gave Bidoof four more Sitou Fruits, then took the remaining Sitou Fruits home.
Lu Li didn’t dare to directly give the Sitou Fruits to his Pokémon to eat, because Tropius and the others all had bright futures and there was no need to risk their lives just to activate Speed potential once.
“Speed Activation Potion Recipe…” Back home, Lu Li looked at the Sitou Fruits on the table and fell into thought.
The Speed Activation Potion Recipe wasn’t particularly precious, but it wasn’t common either.
At least, as far as he knew, no market sold the Speed Activation Potion Recipe.
Reviewing his narrow network of relationships, Lu Li sadly discovered he seemed to have only one person to ask for help.
With the Yu Family’s capabilities, Yu Zhonggang… no, this was his future father-in-law!
With his future father-in-law’s abilities, he should definitely have a way to get the Recipe, right?
But he already had a cheat, wouldn’t it be a bit too much to shamelessly eat soft rice?
“As long as I don’t marry in, early dating isn’t out of the question.” Lu Li ultimately lowered his standards.
As the saying goes, being born poor isn’t shameful; being flexible is the mark of a true husband.
It’s just eating soft rice in the early stage, right?
Let’s do it!
Is Yu Lili pretty?
Invincibly youthful beauty of a girl!
Does Yu Lili have a good personality?
This is a woman you could treat like a brother!
No issues with looks or personality; the rest can be adapted to slowly.
After taking a deep breath, Lu Li took out his phone and opened his contacts list.
Lu Li, having made up his mind, pressed the call button.
“Hello, is this Lili?”
“Lu Li?”
Yu Lili’s hesitant voice came from the phone. Before this, Lu Li had always called her by her full name.
Actually, Lu Li also felt his utilitarianism was too strong, but there was no way around it—people always discard some principles in the process of growth.
Lu Li replied: “It’s me.”
Yu Lili asked curiously: “Is there something you want me to bring?”
“Do you know where I can buy a Speed Activation Potion Recipe?”
Yu Lili asked puzzled: “Speed Activation Potion Recipe? What do you need that for?”
Lu Li: “I found a Sitou Fruit tree out there, and harvested 15 Sitou Fruits from it.”
Hearing this, the other end of the phone instantly fell into an eerie silence.
Moments later, Yu Lili asked through gritted teeth: “Did I hold you back by being by your side?”
Lu Li: “???”
“Why do you say that?” Lu Li asked, confused.
“I’ve only been gone less than half a day! And then you tell me you went to the wilderness and found a rare fruit tree, and those precious Berries just happened to be harvestable?” Yu Lili asked through gritted teeth.
This was just like two people losing ranked games together, agreeing to lose together, but in the time one goes to the bathroom, they come back to find you’ve solo queued to King—outrageously absurd.
Of course, such a thing couldn’t be admitted. Lu Li hurriedly explained: “Of course not, you just happened to leave, I was a bit bored, so I wandered around nearby…”
