Pokémon: The Most Beautiful Fairy King

Chapter 15 The Oasis of Ganquan Lake



It was said that it was a two-day trip. When everyone arrived at Ganquan Lake, it was already close to noon. Everyone hurriedly took out the things they brought and started preparing for dinner.

"Little Charmander, let's light the fire?" After he piled up the firewood, Shen Yue, a trainer of the fire department, naturally took on the job of lighting the fire.

"Fire~~~" Hearing the trainer's instructions, Charmander immediately spit out flames, and it turned out...

"Ahem~~~ The fire is too big! Start again! Make it smaller!" A fire directly burned the pile of firewood that Shen Yue had finally piled up. In desperation, she could only choke on the smoke while piled up a pile of firewood again.

"You can just use the fire from the tail of the little charmander to light the fire. For things like flames, let's go back and practice slowly." Xiao Ran, who was sitting by the lake fishing, said helplessly.

"??" Hearing Xiao Ran's words, Shen Yue, whose face was covered in black and gray, was stunned, looked at her little Charmander, and then at the pile of firewood that had just been piled up.

"Fire?" Charmander called out tentatively, lighting a fire?

"Uh~~" Shen Yue responded subconsciously, and then saw the little charmander tentatively stretching its tail under the firewood pile, and a trace of flame slowly ignited the whole firewood pile.

"My God! Am I an idiot?" Shen Yue screamed in pain.

"Hahahaha~~~" Everyone laughed.

"Qiuqiu, don't play too far, remember to come back to replenish the salt after a while." Looking back, looking at the Qiuqiu sea lions playing happily in the lake, Xiao Ran shouted loudly.

Although the Qiuqiu sea lion is a water system, it is a marine elf. The water it is soaked in is also prepared water, which has salt and substances close to sea water, so swimming in freshwater lakes for a long time like now is very bad for its skin. Therefore, every once in a while, it has to come back and soak in the basin that Xiao Ran prepared for it.

"Aw~~~" Qiuqiu sea lion shouted, but soon sank into the water again, apparently not paying attention to Xiao Ran's words.

"Bah, bah, why is it King Carp again? How many are there?" Jiang Chengnu, who was fishing with Xiao Ran, shouted, this was already the fifth King Carp he had caught.

Except for a layer of skin, the rest of this kind of elf is all bones, and it can't even be eaten. It can be called a salted fish in water, but it is the most abundant fish.

"It probably occupies more than half of Ganquan Lake. This thing has too strong reproductive ability. It doesn't have any natural enemies. If you are not careful, it will grow into a lake." Xiao Ran shook his head and said, in fact, he also caught seven or eight king carp.

"Do you think this thing can really evolve into a dragon? Don't let the textbook fool us?" Jiang Cheng asked angrily.

"It's true. The legend of Yu Leaping over the Dragon's Gate probably really exists, and it is applicable to many water-type elves. Before evolution, they are at the bottom of the food chain. Once they evolve, they can change from prey to predator. This can be regarded as a kind of ecological balance." Xiao Ran said with a sigh.

The difficulty of the evolution of the carp king into a tyrannosaurus is just a description in the previous game. In fact, it is very simple to evolve when playing. But in this real world, Xiao Ran realizes that this evolution is really not that easy. If there is no accident, the carp kings in the entire Ganquan Lake may not be able to evolve a tyrannosaurus. The accumulation required for this kind of evolution is really terrible, and what is needed is not what ordinary carp kings can accumulate.

"Really? Do you think I should raise one? What if it really evolves?" Jiang Cheng asked dubiously.

"Don't think about it, it's not that simple to jump over the dragon's gate. Maybe the carp king in this lake can't evolve a tyrannosaurus. With this time and energy, wouldn't it be good to cultivate another elf?"

"That's what you said... Sigh... It's useless and can't be eaten, get out!" Jiang Cheng was furious, and threw the carp king in his hand back into the lake again, but there was no such thing as a sudden evolution to slap his face.

"Where did Lingling go? It seems that she hasn't seen her since she came here?" Looking around, Jiang Cheng asked curiously.

"She said she was going for a walk around, she should be back soon, right?" Xiao Ran said, with imperceptible worries in his tone.

"Okay, but she has nothing to worry about. She can break through the entry-level Huola at any time. It is estimated that the elves in Ganquan Lake are no match for her." Jiang Cheng said with a smile.

The elves near the city are not strong, and the forest rangers will carry out regular maintenance to prevent the emergence of overly powerful elves that endanger the safety of the surrounding humans. Therefore, the entry level is generally the limit. Even the rangers may not be able to solve the elves that exceed this level in the first place. In this case, it is basically necessary to invite those strong trainers to drive them away.

"That's not necessarily true. After all, the number of elves has suddenly decreased. I always feel that this place is not very peaceful." Xiao Ran shook his head and said.

"Oh~~~" At this moment, the Qiuqiu sea lion who was playing in the lake suddenly appeared, splashing water all over Xiao Ran.

"Qiaoqiu~~~You~~~" Xiao Ran looked helpless, and was about to teach the little guy a lesson, but suddenly he was taken aback, and quickly rushed to the water's edge, took a handful of lake water and put it into his mouth.

"What's the matter?" Putting down the fishing rod, Jiang Cheng ran over and asked, and imitated the other party's example, picked up some lake water and put it into his mouth.

"Huh? The water is not good. It's not sweet at all. It's astringent. Who said the water here is sweet before? It's called Ganquan Lake, and it's as sweet as mountain spring water. Bah, it's all a lie!" Jiang Cheng said dissatisfiedly.

"That's right, it doesn't taste good, it's not sweet, it's astringent, because it's mixed with seawater, and the seawater is salty and astringent. This is because the concentration of seawater in the lake should not be high, so you can only feel the astringency, and the saltiness is not obvious." Xiao Ran tasted the lake water in his mouth, and murmured softly.

"Sea water? You said that this lake has been mixed with sea water?" Jiang Cheng was astonished, as if it was a fantasy. Ganquan Lake is a freshwater lake, and its water even comes from the mountain spring on the nearby mountain, which is why it has a sweet taste. Now you tell him it is sea water?

"It seems that we have found the reason for the sharp decrease in the number of elves here." Xiao Ran said slowly, "Previously, most of the elves here were freshwater elves, but now the lake here has been mixed with seawater, and the salt content in the water has increased. The marine elves like Qiuqiu seawater may not feel very obvious, but those freshwater elves are different. They live in fresh water all year round and are already very sensitive to water quality. The water quality here has changed and is no longer suitable for them to survive, so moving out is inevitable."

"This? But why did this fine lake suddenly turn into sea water?" Jiang Cheng was taken aback, but his heart was full of doubts.

"That's right, why did the good lake water suddenly turn into sea water?" This is also what Xiao Ran was puzzled about.

Ganquan Lake is a living water lake, and its water is constantly flowing, so there is no such thing as someone pouring seawater into it. The cost of pouring seawater for several weeks in a row is too high, but apart from someone pouring seawater into it, what else would cause a freshwater lake to suddenly mix with seawater?This is also what Xiao Ran couldn't figure out.

"Could it be them?" The mark seen on the tree suddenly flashed in Xiao Ran's mind, but if it was really a palace, then what were they planning?
"Qiaoqiu! Swim around in the lake to see which place is the most comfortable for you to stay in? Remember to be careful, if you feel something is wrong, leave immediately, and then come back and tell me." Xiao Ran instructed the Qiuqiu sea lion in front of him.

"Oh~~~" Qiuqiu sea lion responded, and then dived into the water again.

"Do you think it's for man?" Jiang Cheng asked.

"I don't know, but the sea water is obviously mixed in. No matter what the reason is, as long as we find the source, we will know the answer." Xiao Ran shook his head and said.

"That's right, as long as you find all the answers at the source, you'll know. No wonder you asked Qiuqiu Sea Lion to test the water." Jiang Chenghe laughed.

Seawater is mixed, so it must only be mixed in from one point, and then spread to the surroundings, so the concentration of seawater in different places in Ganquan Lake must be different, and Qiuqiu sea lions are marine elves after all. Although this problem was not discovered at the beginning due to the low concentration of seawater, it can be sensed as long as it is carefully sensed, but it may take longer.

"How's your fishing going? You can come over to have a barbecue!" Shen Yue in the distance suddenly shouted, pulling back their thoughts.

"Oh, here we are, let me tell you, we..." Jiang Cheng was about to talk about this, but was suddenly stopped by Xiao Ran.

"We just caught a big fish, but it's a pity that it ran away! We'll pack up and come here." Xiao Ran responded hastily, and then turned his gaze to Jiang Cheng.

"Don't let them know about this, it's too weird, I'm afraid it will be dangerous!" Xiao Ran urged.

"you're right."

Hearing his words, Jiang Cheng also immediately paid attention to it. Indeed, if there is really something going on here, it would be bad for too many people to know.

"Did you realize something was wrong when you and Yueyue just got off the car?" After packing up, Jiang Cheng asked curiously while hooking Xiao Ran's neck.

"Let go! Let go!" Patting the opponent's thick arm, Xiao Ran felt that he was about to be strangled. "No, I'm not a god. I really want to know the reason why I still drink lake water here?"

"What about Lingling? Don't tell me where she also sneaked away to drink the lake water!" Jiang Cheng said angrily, and the strength in his hand became a little heavier.

"She's really just walking around. If you don't believe me, you'll see later. She'll come back as soon as the barbecue is done."

"I do not believe!"

"Don't go too far, huh? Do you believe that I used the power of the moon to throw you into the lake and let you drink enough?"

"Damn! How dare you threaten me? Die!"

"I really did it!"

……

"Hey~~~ The relationship between the two is so good, it makes me feel like a third party is involved!" Shen Yue, who was standing in the distance watching the interaction between the two, sighed.
