MTL - Not a Trainer This Time

Chapter 110 Preparation

Speaking of horse Pokémon, Naoki’s favorite one, and the one he can catch with his current strength, is the Flame Horse.

There are two types of flame horses, one is ordinary flames, and the other is the rainbow flame horse in the form of the Galar region.

This Pokémon has blazing fire on its back and mane, making it cool and exciting when running.

  If the trainer wears a helmet and rides on it, he can directly start cosplaying the Undead Knight.

However, this kind of horse lives in vast wilderness, and there are not many of them. It is also difficult to conquer them.

 Hang up the phone, Naoki turned around and went to the kitchen to continue preparing dinner for the Pokémon.

There are still many things waiting for him to do in the pasture. For example, the weather is getting hotter and it will be summer soon. He has to set up supports for the growth of hops in the farmland in advance.

The roads in the pasture that were damaged by Pokémon while playing are also waiting for him to repair.

In addition, he also has to take care of the Pokémon in the ranch.

 In this case, there is no way for him to go out for a long time.

 “Let’s forget it this time.” Naoki thought to himself.

 After all, this is his first year in this world. Thinking about it carefully, it seems that he is not too anxious to attend the horse racing meeting.

  Anyway, the days are long, and these ten days are too short. Even if he tamed the Horse Pokémon, he would not have time to cultivate it properly.

  After all, he has not yet made a dish that makes Pokémon run faster.

The days have to pass slowly. If you miss it this year, you will still have a chance next year.

 Furthermore, apart from participating in the horse racing competition, Naoki originally had one more thing he wanted to do.

That is to go to Frostmoist Mountain to see if you can encounter some ice-type Pokémon that are close to each other, and then bring them back to the ranch.

At this time, the oil in the pot was heated, and Zhi Shu used tongs to put two pieces of fresh meat on top.

 The sound of sizzling came from the pan immediately.

After the steaks were fried until golden brown, Naoki turned them over skillfully, and then sprinkled some black pepper and other seasonings on them.

 Soon, two pieces of sizzling, tender and juicy fried pork were completed.

The aroma of grilled steaks wafted through the room. Naoki put them on a dinner plate and gave them to Gulton and Motorized Lizard, letting them go to the side to eat.

 Next he has to cook for Kuailong, Bubo and Badahu.

　　It was already getting late outside, and many Pokémon who had been playing outside all day said goodbye to their friends and turned around to return to their dens.

 After dinner, Naoki used a flashlight to patrol the pasture as usual.

 Seeing that the big milk jug, the salt stone treasure, the riding goat, and the hen were all normal, he returned to the house.

 Take off your boots, get ready for a good wash and go to bed.

At this moment, Naoki suddenly noticed that something seemed to be missing from the windowsill.

He looked around, looked at Bu Bo beside him, and asked, "Have you seen where Mini Fu went?"

 “Bamo…”

 Bu Bo shook his head.

Seeing this, Zhi Shu stopped what he was doing and went to the sheep pen where the goat was mounted.

 Sure enough, I saw Mini Fu’s figure on the grass there.

It was taking a nap on a piece of grass. When she heard the footsteps coming from outside, she was awakened and subconsciously opened her eyes.

 After seeing that it was Naoki, he couldn't help but relax.

 “Aren’t you going to go back to sleep?” Naoki asked.

 Minifu shook his head slightly, saying that this place is very good and he likes it here.

　　"Okay." 　　　Seeing this, Zhi Shu was a little helpless, but he didn't say anything.

　　He has always chosen to respect Pokémon's ideas.

 From this day on, Minifu officially moved to the sheepfold and lived with the goat.

　　——

Early the next morning, after finishing his work at the ranch, Naoki rode a motorcycle lizard to the town.

 The temperature in Shuangmo Mountain is very low and it is covered with snow all year round. It is impossible to go there without being fully prepared.

 Hence, as soon as he arrived in town, Zhi Shu went to the store and bought a cold-proof suit.

 The suit has four components, including cold-proof clothing, gloves, windproof goggles, and snow boots. These are all necessary items for going to Frostmoist Mountain.

In addition, you will also need to purchase some portable kerosene stoves to light a fire.

 After everything was ready, Naoki did not set off immediately. Instead, he went to Keli’s cabin and asked her about the ice cellar.

After hearing this, Keri seemed a little surprised. She slowly said:

"Well, generally speaking, when you add a house, you can choose to build a cellar underground. However, if you transform the cellar into an ice cellar, it may affect the house above. You know, the cold air will penetrate the ground and spread to the house. inside."

Zhi Shu thought about it carefully and found that it was indeed the case, so he continued to ask: "What if an ice cellar is dug somewhere else in the pasture?"

 “I’m not suggesting you do this.”

 After thinking for a moment, Keri gave her own suggestion:

“Instead of digging a new hole in the pasture and converting it into an ice cellar, I suggest you remodel the cave behind the house into an ice cave.”

"If I remember correctly, you are using it to cultivate mushrooms now, right?" Kelly asked again.

Zhi Shu nodded. There were several mushroom petri dishes piled up in the cave, and some mushrooms could grow every few days.

 The types of mushrooms are all common and ordinary. At first, Naoki was very novel and would pick some mushrooms to make soup and cook.

At the back, after the initial novelty wore off, he threw all the mushrooms into the shipping box and gave them to Zach to be sold in the town.

Thinking about it now, there is really no place more suitable for an ice cellar than there.

And it doesn’t require a big project, as long as Pokémon with ice attributes move in, a natural ice cellar will slowly form there.

 “I understand.” Naoki expressed his gratitude to Keri.

Keli smiled slightly and started selling her furniture at the right time:

“I just bought a new batch of professional refrigeration equipment here, do you need it? The price is not expensive, as long as..."

Zhi Shu said speechlessly: "I plan to capture the ice-type Pokémon to help transform it."

"What about the power generation facility?" Keli continued to promote: "It can absorb the electricity released by Pokémon and store it. If the energy of Pokémon is enough, it can meet the electricity needs of the entire ranch! "

Um?

 Hearing this, Naoki instantly became interested.

Seeing his expression, the smile on Keri's face became even brighter: "The price is not expensive. You can buy one with only 30,000 alliance coins."

 Thirty thousand…

The price is indeed not expensive.

With this power generation device, he can save a lot of electricity bills in the future.

The electric Pokémon in the ranch has a cloth.

Kailong can also use electric-type moves, so it should be no problem to borrow some power from them.

Thinking of this, Zhi Shu immediately planned to buy one and install it.

This way, if there is a power outage at the ranch due to bad weather such as a typhoon, he can generate his own electricity.
