Chapter 952: Leakage of the Phantom Alola Cream Stew

Alola, Melemele Island, Ena's Restaurant!

This restaurant was opened by Mao's family, and today she warmly invited everyone to her home to taste the new dishes she had painstakingly developed.

It has been a while since they came to the Alola region, and Xiaozhi and Latias have visited Mao's restaurant many times. The dishes here are unique and memorable. It was dinner time, so Xiaozhi gladly accepted Mao's invitation and brought Latias with him.

Latias was full of curiosity about the new dishes and couldn't wait to get into the kitchen and ask for help. Pikachu and the others played with Liliae and the other Pokémon.

Mamane rubbed her belly, her face full of anticipation: "It's really exciting, I wonder what kind of delicious food will be served this time?"

At this moment, Mao came out of the kitchen and said to everyone with a smile: "Everyone, thank you for coming here today. It will take some time before the food is served, so please wait patiently for a while!"

Mamane held her stomach, which had already started to growl non-stop: "I didn't even have lunch, and now I'm so hungry..."

Tian Zhuzhu carefully jumped onto the table with a glass of water on her head. Xiaozhi quickly reached out to take it and said with a smile, "Thank you, Tian Zhuzhu!"

Lilia, who was sitting next to Xiaozhi, shrank back slightly when Tianzhuzhu approached, but still tried to praise him: "You...you are really amazing for being able to help the store."

Hearing the compliment, Tian Zhuzhu seemed very happy, and the fruity scent emanating from her body became stronger. At this moment, the Owl in Xiaozhi's backpack was attracted by the fruity scent, and immediately woke up, flapping its wings excitedly and swooping over.

Seeing this, Tianzhuzhu mercilessly spun the leaves above his head, trying to knock it away. However, after Xiaozhi's careful training, the strength of the wood owl has been improved in all aspects. It flexibly turned around quickly, dodged easily, and then flapped its wings and landed on Xiaozhi's shoulder.

Seeing that his attack failed, Tian Zhuzhu seemed a little angry and turned to run into the kitchen. At this moment, a rich and fragrant smell came from the kitchen, which made people salivate. This should be the new dish that Mao was making.

Just by smelling the aroma, everyone seemed to be able to imagine how delicious this new dish would be. The already hungry people became even more excited and looked towards the kitchen.

However, just as the dish was about to be brought out of the kitchen, Mao's excited voice suddenly came: "Latias, please."

Before he finished speaking, a blinding flash of lightning appeared in the kitchen. This sudden sight scared everyone.

Mao was the first to walk out of the kitchen holding a stew pot. Her entire body was charred as if struck by lightning. "Clang, clang, the Phantom Alola Cream Stew is ready!"

Judging from the appearance and smell, this "Phantom Alola Cream Stew" seemed quite delicious, and everyone couldn't resist the urge to try it. However, when they put the stew into their mouths, they unexpectedly felt a strong electric current running around in their mouths, which had a paralyzing effect.

"This stew actually leaks electricity?!"

At the same time, while Xiaozhi and the others were tasting the leaky stew, Latias also brought out a large plate of Pokémon food mixed with various tree fruits for Pikachu and the others from the kitchen.

Unlike the stew just now, these Pokémon foods did not have anything strange added to them. Pikachu and the others ate them with relish and were very satisfied.

Faced with such a tiny electric current, Xiaozhi was naturally not afraid due to his strong physical fitness. After all, his conductivity had already reached its peak in the previous stage.

If Xiaozhi guessed correctly, the stew should have been added with the weak electric current released by Latias.

However, Liliae and several others could not withstand such an electric shock. Their expressions were distorted and they fell headfirst onto the table.

Kachi was a stronger man, so he raised his head and asked, "What exactly is this dish?"

Maou didn't seem to notice his companions' unusual condition, but instead looked very proud, not to mention that Mamane had already started to devour his food, obviously because he was extremely hungry.

“Isn’t that sudden sizzling feeling addictive? This wonderful taste is the unique feature of our Fantasy Alola Cream Stew!” Obviously, Mao is convinced that her new dish has been a success.

"It's more than just a sizzling sound, it's a crackling sound..." Liliae also raised her head with difficulty, her whole body trembling with numbness, "It feels like being hit by 100,000 volts."

Her voice was trembling, and she was obviously frightened by the electric shock just now.

"Could it be?" Kachi finally guessed what had happened. He widened his eyes and looked at the stew in front of him in disbelief.

Obviously Latias had noticed something was wrong. It scratched its head awkwardly and explained with a hint of apology: "It's not as exaggerated as 100,000 volts. At most, it's just the amount of electromagnetic waves."

"Ending with electromagnetic waves seems a bit too exciting..." Mao finally discovered the abnormality after being reminded by Latias's telepathy.

As time went by, Liliae, Kachi and the others gradually recovered from their paralysis, but except for Mamane, everyone else stayed away from this dish.

"By the way, what is the Phantom Alola Cream Stew?" Liliae asked curiously as she saw flashes of golden electricity in the stew.

Just as Mao was about to reply, the owner and chef of the Eina Restaurant, Mao's father, came back with a basket of vegetables. As soon as he entered the door, he saw everyone sitting around the dining table.

As a polite young lady, Lilia quickly stood up and said with a smile, "Hello, uncle. We are sorry to bother you!"

Shui Lian and Mao were close friends who grew up together, and she was very familiar with Mao's family, so she was not restrained, but asked curiously: "Mao's father, what is the Phantom Alola Cream Stew?"

Mao's father was stunned for a moment, then smiled and replied: "Why do you ask this suddenly? Speaking of this dish, a long time ago, whenever there was a temple fair or festival, people would cook this dish! Its flavor is rich and unique, and it makes people linger on the taste."

"Unfortunately, as time went by, this tradition was gradually forgotten, and now few people know about the existence of this dish."

Obviously, this is a dish with profound meaning, but it has been gradually lost due to the changes of the times. This is even the first time that Liliae and the others have heard the name of this dish.

"In that case, Mao, how did you make this cream stew?" Liliae was the first to react and asked.

Mao smiled and pulled out a handwritten recipe book, "This is the recipe for Alola Cream Stew. It was a gift from my brother."

It turned out that her brother went on a trip to learn cooking, and during the trip he accidentally found the recipe for the long-lost Alola Cream from an old document, so he copied it down and gave it to Mao.

"According to the recipe, in order to successfully make Alola Cream Stew, you must have golden nectar. It is said that this is a very important ingredient that can give the dish a sizzling texture." Mao explained the key problem of this dish at the moment.

However, now is not the honey production season, and this golden nectar is difficult to obtain.

So after much thought, Mao came up with the idea of ​​having Latias inject electromagnetic waves into the prepared stew, but this was too stimulating and Liliae and the others didn't dare to enjoy it at all.

"I was planning to make this dish and make it the signature dish of our Eina Restaurant..." Mao was immediately discouraged, his face full of loss. Today's attempt was considered a failure.

At this moment, Xiaozhi stood up and patted Mao's shoulder with a smile, "Don't be discouraged, although the golden nectar is not produced in season, it cannot be said that there is no season at all. There are always exceptions to everything!"

Rotom also flew over at this time and showed the information he searched for everyone, "The Flower Dancer with the style of Pazi Pazi really likes to use golden nectar Lotom!"

"So as long as we find the Flower Dancer, there's a good chance we'll find golden nectar." Xiaozhi said with a smile, "And even if we can't find it, I have another way."

Mao's eyes lit up when he heard that, "Really? Thank you, Xiaozhi!"

Unfortunately, the others had plans for tomorrow and couldn't accompany Mao to look for it, so only Xiaozhi and Mao went to look for it.

"Another bowl!" Mamane had already eaten up all the stew in the bowl. "It's delicious. The crackling texture is so exciting!"

With his support, Mao's confidence was greatly increased.

However, in order to compensate everyone, Mao's father also cooked a table of dishes as dinner for everyone.
