The three of them chatted and walked all the way to the Orange Academy dormitory area.
Although Orange Academy is very large, there are so many students that it is impossible for everyone to live in a large single-family house, but it can still be done with one room per person.
Perhaps because of the special preferential treatment given to international students, Mingyi's dormitory conditions are relatively good.
An apartment of nearly 100 square meters is more than enough to accommodate her and the elves, but there is no need to think about a separate training room, there will definitely not be one.
It was almost dinner time when we returned to the dormitory.
Now that Xia Chen is here, Mingyi will naturally not go to the canteen again.
Not only that, she also warmly invited Nemo like a child showing off a toy.
"Stay for dinner tonight. Xia Chen cooks. The food he makes is delicious."
Of course, Nimo, who was familiar with it, was not polite, and readily agreed: "Okay, let me see how it compares to the delicious food made by Pipa?"
Mingyi chuckled and did not belittle her classmates behind her back.
Two hours later.
Mingyi looked at Nemo who was feasting on the dinner table, and asked with a smile: "How does it compare with the food made by Pipa?"
Nemo swallowed a piece of soft braised pork, raised her head and said, "What? Are you talking about that guy who only knows how to make sandwiches?"
Mingyi: "..."
Nemo's face changing speed is really faster than turning the pages of a book...
After the meal was finished, the food on the table was completely wiped out, and a small part of it went into the stomachs of Nemo and Babu.
The two of them even touched their bellies, looking unsatisfied.
Fortunately, Nimo only had a Babu woodchuck with her at the moment, otherwise the food Xia Chen cooked might not be enough to eat.
After the meal, the three of them sat on the sofa and chatted.
Nimo asked: "Speaking of which, Xia Chen, do you have any plans for this trip to the Padia region?"
Xia Chen shrugged and replied: "Let's stay in Orange Academy for a while first, and then set off eastward to circle around the Padia Crater. This is a tentative plan, and there may be any changes along the way. "
Well, there is also a hidden mission to explore the evolutionary form of the wealth spirit.
Xia Chen added silently in his heart.
Nemo asked, "Oh, are you going to challenge the gyms along the way?"
"Not really. The main thing is to enjoy the customs and special elves in each region of Padia. After all, my main job is not to be a trainer."
Xia Chen replied casually, secretly looking at Babu, who was sitting on the sofa like a stuffed bear.
It's furry, looks really nice, and should feel comfortable to touch...
Although he thought so, Xia Chen didn't dare to touch it.
The fluffy hair of Babu Woodchuck is actually a battery. If you don’t have the physique of a super real Newtowner, you still have to be cautious.
Xia Chen's Versailles-like speech left Nimo speechless, but considering his amazing achievements in other fields, this statement... seems to be correct?
"Okay, then where will you live during your stay at school? Do you need me to help you apply for a temporary dormitory?"
As the student council president, Nemo still has this privilege.
Xia Chen accepted Nimo's kindness unceremoniously. Although Mingyi's dormitory was quite big, it was awkward to live together. Those who didn't know it thought the two were engaging in some elf communication.
Nimo nodded cheerfully, "Okay, but it's already very late today. You and Mingyi should squeeze in first, and I'll help you get it done tomorrow."
After arranging things for the next day, Nemo left.
…………
There are two rooms in Mingyi's dormitory. The other room was originally for Tuwang and Flaming Ace, but when Xia Chen came, they had to stay in the living room all night.
With the size of Tuwang, there must be no bed in the guest room, so Xia Chen made do with a bunk on the floor and spent the night there.
The next morning.
Xia Chen, who fell asleep in a strange environment, woke up early as usual.
The floor was definitely not as comfortable as the bed. He rubbed his sore waist and shoulders and walked to Xianbu who had gotten up earlier than him.
At this time, she was sitting quietly by the window sill giving Deoxys daily healing.
Xia Chen did not disturb her, but just watched silently.
After a while, Xianbu opened his eyes, and the blue eyes looked a little tired.
Xia Chen stroked Xianbu's soft hair, "Thank you for your hard work, Xianbu."
"Buy..."
Senbu shook his head, indicating that it was nothing.
After more than a month of treatment, Deoxys' condition gradually stabilized, and Senbu no longer needed to inject too much life energy every day.
Basically, it only takes ten minutes every morning.
At the moment, the entire crystal of Deoxys, which had just been healed, was emitting a magnificent green light. It floated up from the window sill and flew affectionately around Xianbu and Xia Chen, as if to express gratitude.
A few days before leaving Zhijiang, under the continuous healing of Xianbu, the crystal core recovered from dormancy.
I don’t know if it has lost its memory or is just its nature. It was extremely timid when it just woke up, like a kitten that had just arrived in a strange environment.
If someone or an elf other than Xia Chen and Xianbu approaches, it will immediately hide in the small bag hanging on Xianbu's body, which is slightly better than Gardevoir.
But when facing Xia Chen and Xian Bu, Crystal Core will behave very affectionately and docilely, just like now.
"Feeling better today, Deoxys?"
For some unknown reason, the crystal core can understand human speech, and it will respond through light waves.
The waveform light pattern flashing with a higher frequency at this moment represents affirmation or happiness.
…………
Xia Chen also asked Deoxys a series of questions after it woke up.
For example, does it have a companion? Where is it?
How did it turn into a crystal? Did it encounter a large, green flying dragon-like elf and be beaten like this?
What are the conditions required to return to its original form?
some type of...
However, Deoxys knew nothing about most of the questions and only responded to the last one.
After Xia Chen tried many times to guess and ask questions, he finally determined one thing.
If you want to completely restore Deoxys' strength, you must rely on the energy of the meteorite from which it was born.
And that meteorite is most likely to be with the Rockets...
Forget it, I probably won't be able to help Deoxys for a while.
You don't need to think about it to know that Team Rocket's supervision of meteorites is definitely the highest level.
Perhaps second only to Mewtwo's research, if they are carrying out this plan...
In this case, there is essentially no difference between bravely breaking into Team Rocket's base and entering the Padian Pit.
They all had a narrow escape from death.
The bad news is that the meteorite is with them. Maybe the Deoxys in the hands of the Rockets can wake up earlier?
These are not issues that Xia Chen should be concerned about at this level. He only told Sirona the situation.
She is the only person in the world whom she completely trusts and has the ability to handle this matter.
Of course, the latter is actually not certain.
But if Sirona can't handle it, no one else can.
Sister Zhulan on the video call pondered for a long time, and finally said that she would pay attention to this matter, but could not guarantee anything else.
Xia Chen also understood that after all, Team Rocket was not a dark organization operating in the Sinnoh region. If the Sinnoh champion could still manage matters in the Kanto City area, there would be big trouble.
Therefore, matters related to these two extraterrestrial visitors can only be put on hold for the time being.
Xia Chen felt that he had made his greatest contribution to the world by not letting both Deoxys fall into the hands of the Rockets.
Putting away his memories, Xia Chen chatted with Deoxys for a while to get closer, then went into the kitchen to make breakfast for the whole family.
This is the bad thing about the elf world. Although there are indeed more warm companionships, raising a large group of elves is really a laborious task.
If nothing else, the time and energy spent on cooking every day is not simple.
Of course, with Xia Chen's current financial resources, it would be no problem to go out to eat every time or hire a dedicated chef, but Xia Chen still likes to do it himself in this matter.
As a cook, it is a joyful thing in itself to make the people and elves you like gain happiness from your cooking.
But the price of happiness is that Xia Chen spends three or four hours on cooking every day.
If there is Mingyi or Sirona at home, the time will be extended even more. After all, this is not a matter of one more person, but a team of elves.
If three people live together in the future, wouldn’t it be super doubled?
Wait, how could I have such dangerous thoughts?
Xia Chen quickly stopped this reverie that made his heart beat faster and settled down to cook.
…………
After breakfast was done, Mingyi and the other elves just woke up and came out to wash up and eat.
"Good morning, Xia Chen."
Mingyi, who was wearing a t-shirt embroidered with rattan and snake patterns, seemed to have not slept well, and was so sleepy that she yawned.
Xia Chen took off his apron, handed Ming Yi a bowl of slow-boiled hot seafood porridge, and asked, "Did you not sleep well last night?"
"call--"
Mingyi blew into the hot porridge, and the hot air wafted along with the fragrance, covering her slightly red cheeks.
"It's...it's okay, I didn't do anything weird."
Xia Chen shook his head speechlessly. This girl never lied. The translated meaning of this sentence is, "I didn't sleep well because I did something strange last night."
As for what strange things happened, Xia Chen didn't know.
Ming Yi guiltily changed the subject and said, "Ah, by the way, I have an early morning today, so I won't be with you later. You can go around the school by yourself."
Xia Chen nodded and replied: "It's okay, go ahead and go, I'll just go find your principal."
Before coming, Yu Chaohua mentioned to him Clavel, the principal of Orange College. Although he didn't want to seek any care, Xia Chen should go and visit him.
After breakfast, Mingyi took the elves out to go to class. Xia Chen also joined her on the way. The principal's office was on top of the castle-like teaching building.
There were people coming and going on the road from the dormitory area to the teaching building, including men, women, old and young, but what they had in common was that they were all wearing uniforms of the college.
From time to time, you can see an old man with a sloppy beard and a beer belly wearing a youthful school uniform. He looks funny but awe-inspiring.
This is the true embodiment of the spirit of endless learning!
Therefore, the uncle is not unconventional. On the contrary, Xia Chen, who is not wearing a school uniform, is very conspicuous. Coupled with the fellow elf Gardevoir beside him, his return rate is close to 100%.
Facing everyone's envious gazes, Xia Chen came to the principal's office on the top of the building.
After knocking on the door three times, a slightly serious voice came from the room.
"Please come in."
…………
Xia Chen pushed the door open and walked in. Sitting in the elegantly decorated office was a thin old man wearing an orange uniform.
The old man wears glasses. Although his hair is white, his face is energetic. Two words can describe his overall temperament: gentleman.
This is the current principal of Orange College, Clavell.
Clavel stopped what he was doing and looked up at the strange visitor, with a trace of doubt in his eyes.
"Who are you..."
Xia Chen introduced himself: "Hello, principal, my name is Xia Chen. I come from Shangjing University in the Donghuang area. I heard the principal mentioned you before leaving, so I came here to visit you."
Clavel said in surprise: "Are you Xia Chen? Come, sit down and talk."
Although he couldn't be recognized at a glance from his appearance, Xia Chen was still quite famous, so Clavel was naturally impressed.
Guests and hosts doing as they please, Xia Chen walked into the room and sat at Clavel's table.
"What do you want to drink? Is black tea okay?"
Xia Chen smiled and nodded, "Just make arrangements."
As soon as he finished speaking, the black teapot on the table suddenly floated up, and then a cup of steaming black tea was poured into the teacup.
This is not a superpower, nor is it a supernatural event, but because the teapot is a horror pot.
To be precise, the Horisi pot is the black tea inside the pot, and the whole pot is just the carrier.
This was the first time Xia Chen saw this elf. While it was novel, he couldn't help but worry about a problem.
Can I drink this thing...
Clavel saw Xia Chen's doubts and said with a smile: "The black tea from the Weisi Pot is not only drinkable, but also good for the human body. You see, I am thirty years old and I am still so energetic just because I drink it every day." Drink tea from the pot of fear."
Xia Chen looked at Clavel's pale hair and the loose skin on his face in silence, and slowly lowered the hand that originally held the tea cup.
Clavel laughed loudly: "I'm just kidding. In your Donghuang terms, I'm almost 70 years old, but the tea from the Bisi Pot is indeed drinkable and very delicious."
Xia Chen shook his head and smiled bitterly in his heart. Unexpectedly, a principal who looked serious and serious on the outside was actually a lively old naughty boy.
No wonder he and his crooked principal got together... However, after all the farce, they did become a lot more friendly.
Xia Chen complained silently and took a sip of the steaming black tea.
It has a sweet and mellow aroma, a long lasting flavor, and a strange aroma that is like some kind of tree fruit.
Even though Xia Chen doesn't understand tea, he can still say that the tea is good.
The lid of the teapot was lifted, and a magical elf made of brown-red liquid with a nose and eyes appeared, which was the body of the Horror Teapot.
Bisi Pot looked at Xia Chen proudly, as if asking, "Are you sure you don't want to refill this delicious tea?"
However, Xia Chen declined, "No, thank you..."
It tastes good, but even if I drink an elf, I always feel something is weird.
