Chapter 115 The Origin of Kuailong
Zhiqin Town is a seaside town on the coast. To the west is the South Padia Sea, adjacent to the Baking Desert, the largest desert in the Padia region, and the main target of Luo Mu's trip, the Cauldron Lake.
In addition to the seaside town-style buildings, the most famous place here is the Zhiqin Market located in the center of the town.
Merchants and vendors from all over Padia gathered in Ziqin Market, selling a wide variety of goods.
But if we talk about the most distinctive thing about Zhiqin Market, it must be the small auction unique to the market here.
The auction here needs to be filed with the management committee of Zhiqin Market in advance, and they will then arrange a suitable venue to hold it.
It would be troublesome for ordinary people, but it was very easy for Luo Mu.
He happened to know someone from the Zhiqin Market Management Committee.
Once while traveling, he rescued a severely dehydrated victim in the dry desert. At first glance, he looked like a victim who was lost in the desert and had exhausted his resources.
The victim was the middle-aged man with a smile in front of Luo Mu.
The man's name is Terry. He wears subtle gold-rimmed glasses and looks like a cultural person.
Terry took off his glasses and picked up the magnifying glass in his hand to carefully observe the cotton wool brought by Luo Mu. He gently touched it with his carefully gloved right hand, with a look of admiration on his face: "It is indeed a unique treasure from the Galar region. The cotton wool is as white and fluffy as clouds, and you can tell how beautiful and lustrous the threads made from it are.”
After a moment, Terry raised his head and looked at Luo Mu: "Mr. Luo Mu, regarding the auction method of these cotton wool, I think this method is good."
Terry wrote a few big words on a piece of white paper and handed it to Luo Mu.
Taking the white paper, Luo Mu lowered his head and read aloud: "The auction will be divided into four stages?"
Terry nodded and said: "White fluffy cotton wool is a relatively rare commodity in the Padia region. Many businessmen and wealthy people will be attracted to it."
"You have exactly ten pounds of cotton wool. I want to divide it into one pound, one pound, three pounds and five pounds for auction. This method can not only heat up the atmosphere, but also achieve high prices at auction."
"The starting price for the first two kilograms is 4,000 alliance coins. The starting prices for the three and five kilograms are 5,000 and 6,000 alliance coins respectively. What do you think?"
Terry looked at Luo Mu cautiously, fearing that he would see a look of displeasure on his face.
For him, Luo Mu was his savior, and Terry would not let go of such a good opportunity to repay him.
With a few more pallets, the selling price can easily exceed the price of 6,000 alliance coins per kilogram.
Luo Mu nodded indifferently. For him, it would be fine to sell six thousand alliance coins per kilogram in a package. It would also be fine to generate extra income from the auction, as long as he could make enough money from the sale.
No matter how you calculate it, he will not lose money.
When Terry smiled with relief, Luo Mu suddenly said: "Wait a minute."
Since I entrusted the management committee to auction the white fluffy cotton wool, there should be a handling fee, such as a percentage of the transaction amount.
Luo Mu looked at Terry in confusion: "Don't you take a commission?"
"How could it be!" Terry waved his hands quickly and said from the bottom of his heart: "You are my savior. I am very satisfied if you can help me. How could I do such an unscrupulous thing like taking a commission!"
Because Terry's expression was very firm, as if he would jump out of here if Luo Mu insisted on them taking a commission, Luo Mu had no choice but to accept Terry's kindness.
Even if this is only the second floor.
After completing the handover with Terry and confirming that the white fluffy cotton batting will be auctioned at Zhiqin Market tomorrow, Luo Mu declined Terry's invitation. He has more important things to do now than visiting Ziqin Town and going to the coast. Business to do.
Luo Mu was not worried that the money from the cotton auction would be stolen by Terry, and he had no intention of staying in Zhiqin Town until the auction was over.
Let’s not talk about whether Terry is that kind of person. Even if he really did something like that, we have to ask Luo Mu and his Pokémon whether they agree with it.
He has the ability to deal with all power and shady oppression, and there is no need to worry about anyone playing tricks.
While it was still early, when he walked to the outskirts of Zhiqin Town, Luo Mu summoned Kuailong and flew directly in the direction of Daguo Lake.
Starting from Zhiqin Town, it takes about 40 minutes to see the outline of Daguo Lake with the flying speed of Kuailong.
Stroking the back of Kuailong, who was obviously excited, Luo Mu smiled and said, "I haven't been to Daguo Lake for a long time. I wonder how Haakosaurus and the others are doing now."
"Boooo"
Kuailong responded expectantly, and even the flying speed that had easily surpassed the flying bird became much faster.
Luo Mu still clearly remembers that day. It should be shortly after he rescued Terry. When he finished his training in the baking desert and went to Cauldron Lake to find the last Pokémon in the team, he was in Cauldron. Hu met Kuailong, or rather it was when it was still an elf egg.
Although the Cauldron Lake in the game is filled with Mysterosaurus and Hakosaurus, their numbers in the real Cauldron Lake are not only rare, but also extremely difficult to find.
Kuailong, who was still an elf egg at the time, was jointly guarded by the three Harker dragons, because Kuailong was the child of their leader Kuailong, but the leader of Kuailong never returned to Cauldron Lake after going out one day and was completely lost. news.
Luo Mu's target was originally the most conspicuous of the three Harker dragons. Its pink body was particularly conspicuous in the Cauldron Lake, and it was directly discovered by Luo Mu who entered the Cauldron Lake to find a suitable partner.
Although the evolved version of Pink Harker will turn into a green color, Luo Mu is not so luxurious as to let go of the opportunity to capture rare Pokémon just because of the appearance of the Pokémon.
He took the Swampert and launched an invitation to the pink Harker to conquer. Generally speaking, wild Pokémon would have several different reactions to trainers' invitations to conquer.
Wild Pokémon that do not object to being subdued will often readily accept the challenge. Wild Pokémon that object to being subdued will most likely choose to leave and run away, and some will directly beat the trainer to his knees, leaving the opponent unable to say that he has been conquered. Wild Pokémon in this sentence.
The pink Hackosaurus is the fourth type. It saw the power of Swamp Monster at a glance and chose to ask Luo Mu and Swamp Monster for help.
It was then that Luo Mu realized why the Hackosaurus, which could obviously live underwater, was floating on the water so blatantly.
It turns out that there are several Gyarados in Cauldron Lake who are eyeing the island in the lake where they take care of the Elf Egg of the Kuailong leader, because the waters where the island in the lake is located are the territory of Gyarados.
This was originally the territory of the Kuailong leader, but due to the disappearance of the Kuailong leader, these Gyarados who were still in their young and middle-aged stages occupied this place.
Although the three Hackrons are late-blooming Pokémon, they are not good at fighting. They have always had an attitude of avoiding battles if they can. If they cannot avoid it, the leader of the Dragons will come forward to fight.
With the help of the Harker Dragon, Luo Mu learned that the Gyarados were currently surrounding the other two Harker Dragons and the Elf Eggs on the island in the lake, ready to attack at any time.
After thinking for a moment, Luo Mu agreed to the request of the pink Hackosaurus and helped them drive the Gyarados away from the island in the lake.
After all, if the Hackrons see that they are so powerful and choose to throw themselves into their arms, wouldn't it be a good thing to follow them?
Although at the end of the matter, the Hacker Dragon and the others knew that they were unable to protect the child of the Kuailong leader in the Cauldron Lake, so they entrusted the elf egg to Luo Mu.
However, Luo Mu did not hide the existence of the three Hackrons from Kuailong, so Kuailong was very much looking forward to meeting the three Hackrons whom he had never met before but felt very familiar with.
Soon, the outline of the Cauldron Lake appeared in the field of vision of Luo Mu and Kuailong.
As the largest lake in the Padya region, Cauldron Lake covers a very vast area.
When viewed from the sky, Daguo Lake, surrounded by mountains, looks like a huge cauldron, hence the name Daguo Lake. There are islands of various sizes floating on the lake, with the largest one in the lake. There is even a forest and hills on the island.
Looking from the northeast side, you can see the large waterfall pouring down from Shuangmo Mountain, the largest snow-capped mountain group in the Patiya area. The waterfall is called the Cauldron Falls and is one of the ten scenic spots in Patiya.
If you are lucky, you can also see the carp leaping over the dragon gate at the Daguo Waterfall.
The water near the waterfall is very fast, and there is a certain chance that water-type Pokémon will get into trouble if they get close to it. Therefore, the wild Pokémon near the waterfall are often much stronger.
The west and north of Cauldron Lake are connected to the Padian Sea. Occasionally, wild Pokémon from the sea will stray into Cauldron Lake. Even some dolphin-shaped Pokémon will occasionally appear here. .
Luo Mu rode the dragon and kept looking down, trying to find the location of the island in the lake in his memory.
It’s been a while since I’ve been here, and it’s really difficult to find a small island in the huge Cauldron Lake.
In his field of vision, there are often several white lines swimming at extremely fast speeds on the surface of Cauldron Lake. These white lines shuttle randomly on the lake surface, tearing through the misty white mist floating on the lake surface like clouds.
Luo Mu knew very well that it was the movement caused by the torpedoes. Trainers who flashed in Cauldron Lake would always have a bad relationship with these Pokémon, whose scientific name is Cod.
Commanding Kuailong to lower his flying altitude, Luo Mu made a new discovery.
On the calm lake of Cauldron Lake, there will occasionally be some small Pokémon that appear to be injured and weakened. These Pokémon look like fish sushi, but they are pure dragon + water Pokémon. .
This Pokémon is called Millosaurus. It mimics the shape of its body by inflating its throat sac to help the huge shadow below it hunt. It is a rare Pokémon of different species that cooperates with each other to hunt.
