Chapter 129 The Clinging Green Caterpillar

The next morning, Xiao Zhen got up early. After leaving the tent, he saw Huazi, who had gotten up early and was busy preparing breakfast, and greeted him.

Hanako didn't say anything, just nodded, and then concentrated on making her breakfast.

Because I came home early last night, not only did I get scolded by Hanako, but I also almost didn't have any dinner.

Xiao Zhen yawned first, then walked to the stream and washed his face with the clear river water.

“Hmm…Ah!!”

Xiao Zhen stretched out his body and felt in good spirits today. He would go and have a look after breakfast to see if he could find the Dragonite that he didn't know whether it existed or not.

"Gurgling..."

Xiao Zhen turned his head and saw that there was a green caterpillar lying on the stone next to him, gently replenishing water there.

"Little guy, do you want to drink some water too?" Xiao Zhen asked curiously.

This green caterpillar seemed to be very smart. After hearing Xiao Zhen's words, it immediately nodded in a humane way.

"Hey, what a smart little guy!" Xiao Zhen smiled faintly.

With a wave of his left hand, Xiao Zhen took out a small fruit and gently handed it to the caterpillar.

Seeing the strange fruit, the caterpillar shook its little head and started eating without thinking.

Seeing the little girl eat the fruit in just a few bites, Xiao Zhen also found it very interesting and gently touched her little head.

Just as I was about to tease the little guy for a while longer, I heard Hanako's voice from behind me.

"Xiao Zhen, we have to have breakfast!"

"Oh, I understand. I'll be there soon!" Xiao Zhen said towards the tent.

Xiao Zhen stood up, looked at the little guy next to him, and said softly: "I'm going to have breakfast. Let's stop talking today. See you again in the future, little guy."

Looking at Xiao Zhen's slowly leaving back, a light flashed in the Caterpillar's eyes. It jumped up and hugged Xiao Zhen's thighs tightly.

Xiao Zhen felt something strange on his leg, looked at this special pendant, and said speechlessly: "Little guy, I'm going to eat. Okay, stop making trouble and go down quickly!"

When the Caterpillar heard Xiao Zhen's words, it began to chirp continuously, as if it was saying something.

Xiao Zhen felt his head was a little heavy, and he couldn't understand the insect language, so he had no way to communicate with him.

"System, is there any item that can help me understand other languages? Oh, remember, it must be something I can afford."

Don’t be afraid if you encounter any problems. There is a universal system in your body. As long as you can afford the price, you can have everything.

"Ding! The system recommends the following products..."

Biological Language Proficiency: 7000 points

Universal Language Translator: 3000 points

Spiritual Communication: 2000 points

……

Xiao Zhen took a quick look and found that many things were not practical. For example, this universal language translator was as big as a football. He couldn't possibly carry this thing with him everywhere.

There is also the thing called language proficiency, which claims that one can learn the language of other creatures in an instant. It is convenient, but it is too expensive. The mental communication method is more practical.

However, not everyone can use the method of mental communication. Ordinary people do not have enough mental strength. If they forcibly use this method, they will probably use it for three minutes and fall asleep for ten hours.

"System, I've thought it through. Quickly change this method of mental communication for me!" Xiao Zhen said silently in his heart.

"Ding! Congratulations to the host for spending 2000 points and obtaining the spiritual communication method. Welcome to visit next time!"

A message suddenly appeared in his mind. Xiao Zhen took a deep breath, opened his eyes again, and looked at the green caterpillar on his thigh, which was still chirping there.

Following the instructions of the mental communication method, Xiao Zhen injected a portion of his mental power into the Caterpillar's body and began to communicate with him.

"Take me with you and go play together!"

This time, Xiao Zhen finally understood what the little guy meant.

"Alas!" Xiao Zhen sighed helplessly, touched the little guy's head, and said softly: "That won't do. What I need is a strong partner. You are still a little short of that..."

The green caterpillar tilted its head, pushed its two front feet again, and continued:

"I...I can continue to evolve and will definitely become stronger!"

The corner of Xiao Zhen's mouth twitched. If you evolve, you will be a Metapod, right? How strong can you be?

As one of the Pokémon with the lowest race value, Xiao Zhen had no intention of catching it at all. If it was Magikarp, it would be okay. Although it had a low race value and no attack power, the strength of the Gyarados after it evolved was still quite good.

Seeing the little guy's tenacious appearance, Xiao Zhen didn't know what to do, so he could only say tactfully: "How about this, you and my Pokémon have a duel, if you can hold on for 5 minutes, I will take you in, how about that?"

After listening to this, the Caterpillar nodded quickly, looking very happy.

Xiao Zhen also called out to the little fire dragon who was preparing to eat over there in the tent.

"Charmander, don't be in a hurry to eat, come here quickly!"

Hearing the voice of his master, the little fire dragon looked at the fat man next to him. He was really afraid that when he came back, all his breakfast would have been eaten by him. He didn't want to go hungry.

However, as a Pokémon, it still has to obey the master's orders, especially when it has such a powerful master. It has to listen to his words and dare not disobey them.

Looking at the Charmander wagging its tail and running over in a hurry, Xiao Zhen ordered: "Charmander, do you see this little guy on my leg? I just made a bet with it. If it can hold out for 5 minutes under your hands, I will make it my Pokémon."

Hearing this, the little fire dragon looked at the bug with contempt. Although he had been taught a lesson by Xiao Zhen before and his arrogance had been restrained a lot, if he was asked to be a partner with a green caterpillar, he would forget it.

"Hoohoo!"

The little fire dragon roared at the Caterpillar a few times. This time Xiao Zhen understood what it meant. It roughly meant for the Caterpillar to get lost and not dream of becoming his companion.

The Caterpillar looked at the little lizard with fire on its tail and showed no fear at all. It simply let go of Xiao Zhen's thigh and gave the little fire dragon a look of contempt.

Charmander also saw it, and his eyes suddenly became angry. His two little hands were clenched tightly, and he was obviously enraged.

Soon, a field was marked out on the grass beside the creek.

Xiao Zhen and Huazi acted as temporary referees, and together with the spectators, they were responsible for judging the game.

"Okay, let me say this first. This is not a life-and-death duel. The game must be played to a certain point. Don't cause any casualties!" Xiao Zhen kindly reminded them. Seeing that both Pokémon nodded, he spoke loudly:

"Now I declare that the game officially begins!"

Charmander attacked first, rushing directly to the Caterpillar and using his sharp claws to draw a few marks on the Caterpillar's face.

But this caterpillar was not simple either. It just jumped backwards and dodged it.

When Charmander saw that his attack failed, he did not lose heart. He waved his hands continuously and began to claw wildly, leaving traces of his claws in the air.

However, this set of attacks was completely useless and didn't even scratch the edge of the caterpillar.

The angry Charmander started to spray flames, and a high-temperature flame directly covered the Caterpillar.
