Pokémon: I just became a Gym Leader, and Cynthia proposed to me.

Chapter 316 Simulation, King AZ 3 Years Ago

Li Shuwen mentioned the date, and the owner enthusiastically said, "Don't worry, I'll treat you and your sister-in-law to the best of hospitality!"

Li Shuwen nodded. "Manager, when will Xie Mi come to the flower nursery?"

The owner frowned slightly. "Usually, the flowers in the flowerbed are at their most vibrant after seven or eight days, and the Gracidia flowers will also bloom around this time."

"As for whether Shemi will come, I'm not sure either."

Li Shuwen thought for a moment, "As long as the flowers are beautiful enough, whether or not there are Shemi flowers shouldn't be a big problem."

Li Shuwen made an appointment with the owner to go to the flower nursery eight days later.

Only then did he call Baicai, and it rang for quite a while before someone answered.

Of course, it's because Cynthia hasn't used the "cabbage" identity for too long.

I almost forgot the way Bai Cai spoke, and that gentle tone of her voice.

It took Cynthia a long time to recover.

"Shuwen, Cynthia told me that you met your mother smoothly on your trip to the Alola region."

Congratulations!

It's been a long time since I've heard Cynthia speak in such a gentle tone, like a cabbage.

For a moment, Li Shuwen was still a little unaccustomed to it.

"Sorry, Cabbage, I just got back to the Veiled Dojo and I have a lot of things to take care of, so I only have time to call you now."

Cynthia said gently, "It's alright, it's good that you called."

Li Shuwen smiled and said, "Actually... the flowers in Veil City are in full bloom. I would like to invite you to go flower viewing together in eight days."

A hint of surprise flashed in Cynthia's eyes. "Well done, Li Shuwen."

So you're not even telling Cynthia, are you planning to secretly confess to Hakuna?

Cynthia smiled mischievously, but her voice became even gentler.

"No problem, I'll adjust my work schedule and I'll definitely arrive on time."

Li Shuwen deliberately emphasized, "Be sure to call me after you leave, and I'll come pick you up!"

Hearing Li Shuwen's nervous tone, Cynthia became even more certain that Li Shuwen was preparing to confess his feelings to Bai Cai in the flower garden.

"no problem."

Li Shuwen then shared some interesting stories from his time in the Alora region.

Cynthia was very supportive.

These things were all experienced by the two of them together.

As a result, one person spoke with great enthusiasm, while the other listened with great interest.

Ultimately, is it the story that's interesting, or the people?

Only God knows...

After hanging up the phone, Li Shuwen's smile lingered for more than half an hour.

After arranging his Pokémon, Li Shuwen finished washing up early and lay in bed waiting for tonight's Pokémon simulation.

Since the last simulation of the gible, Li Shuwen has conducted two more simulations.

However, Awen's scores in these two simulations were not ideal.

After Garchomp received an S-rank rating, Li Shuwen assigned it a superpower attribute.

Li Shuwen was very "lucky" to randomly get Xiao Guoran.

All he did was get beaten up.

Then something even more incredible happened: the second simulation randomly generated a Water-type Magikarp.

Then, while swimming back down the waterfall, he was grabbed by a tundra bear and used to sharpen his teeth.

Li Shuwen rubbed his hands together, hoping that this time he could randomly get a good attribute, a good environment, and a good Pokémon.

[System, begin simulation!]

[Random attributes are being assigned to the host...]

The random result is: Fire attribute!

Li Shuwen's eyes lit up. Fire-type, so he shouldn't randomly get a weak Pokémon like Magikarp, right?

[A Pokémon is being randomly simulated.]

【…】

The random result is: Turkey.

[Starting simulation for the host...]

Torchic, the trainer who personally raised a Torchic.

Li Shuwen knew exactly how to breed turkeys.

Li Shuwen's vision went black for a moment, and when he opened his eyes again...

I felt a binding sensation in my body and opened my eyes to observe my surroundings.

It's clearly a human-made structure, and it's a kitchen!

A middle-aged human with fierce eyes, wearing a breastplate and a sword hanging at his waist.

Entering the kitchen, he said, "Get up! You lot, hurry up and cook. Before dawn, prepare enough food for at least five hundred soldiers!"

"Kiko!"

"Vani!"

"Barry!"

The three Pokémon answered the middle-aged human with great nervousness.

Li Shuwen also chimed in with a tense "Chamo!"

The totomato is in charge of washing vegetables, the chickweed is in charge of chopping vegetables, the Mr. Mime is in charge of cooking, and the toad is in charge of tending the fire.

It's obvious that the four of them are Pokémon cooks enslaved by humans.

As for the present time, it must belong to the distant past.

All four of them possessed items used by ancient humans to control Pokémon.

After the humans left, Mr. Mime immediately directed the three Pokémon to get busy.

Have the little tortoise add water, and have the turkey quickly start a fire.

The cooking heat is provided entirely by Torchic, a single Pokémon.

The amount of firewood left in the kitchen was clearly not enough to feed five hundred people.

Li Shuwen was prepared to feed the soldiers undercooked food.

Making food is actually very simple; just chop up all the ingredients.

Then put them into the pot to cook one by one.

At most, Mr. Mime can use his superpowers to mix the ingredients a little.

There are three large pots in the kitchen. The Mr. Mime first adds the ingredients that need to be stewed for a long time into the pots.

Then use your superpowers to put the lid on.

"You guys continue preparing the ingredients. Turkey, don't rush. I'll go get some firewood. Until then, just make sure the food in the three big pots is heated."

Li Shuwen nodded. "Understood."

After Mr. Mime left, Totodile sighed and said, "Looks like we're going to have another war. I wonder who we're fighting this time, and how long it will last?"

"Do you think we might be drafted to the front lines to cook? If we earn merit, will we no longer need to cook?"

Chicory gave him a shove. "Just wash your vegetables properly. If you don't hurry up and cook the food, I don't want to get whipped."

After adding a spark to the three large pots, Li Shuwen asked:

Do you know which lord we serve?

Chicory cut a radish into pieces. "The Mr. Mime said that the king of this castle is called something like A.Z."

"Because the king really liked a Flower Leafy Pokémon, the Pokémon working in the castle received much better treatment as a result."

"I don't want to go to the battlefield. Isn't it better to stay in the castle? Cooking is better than losing my life. At least I can eat my fill here."

Li Shuwen gasped in shock. This was the Carlos region from three thousand years ago!

What he was simulating was probably the war that took the life of the King of AZ's beloved Flower Leafy.

Even the king's favorite flower leaf was forced to go to the battlefield.

It is clear just how intense this war was.

These four cooks will inevitably be used to fill the gaps on the front lines and serve as cannon fodder.

Li Shuwen then secretly reminded him, "No one knows how the war will turn out. It's not like we can choose not to go to the battlefield just because we don't want to."

"We'd better strengthen our forces as much as possible, so that we'll be more likely to survive if we're sent to the battlefield."

The little saw-alligator and chicory leaves, which were being washed with a water gun and chopped with a rattan whip and a flying leaf knife, couldn't help but pause.

"Turkey, why are you suddenly so smart today?"

"That's right, all you do besides tending the fire is eat."

Pokémon Masters, I'm just asking for free gifts every day. Love you all! ^3^
