Chapter 16 Special cuisine, changes in green caterpillars

 It had just rained, so the house seemed a little damp.

Zoki turned around and asked the three Pokémon: "Are you hungry?"

　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　ifies.

 “Ghiss!”

 “Hiss~”

Motor Lizard, Guluton and Green Caterpillar all shook their heads.

 They have been inactive for almost a day. The meal they had for lunch has not been digested yet, so they are not hungry yet.

Seeing this, Naoki said: "Then I will cook later."

While it was still dark, he went to the utility room at the back of the house and started working.

With the help of Guluton and Motor Lizard, Naoki used an ax to chop some of the previously collected wood into firewood, preparing to throw it into the fireplace later to keep warm and prevent moisture.

 In addition, Naoki took out nails and wood and made a simple workbench in the utility room, and then used a saw on it to cut the wood into the shape of boards and sticks.

 Finally, the two are combined together to form a simple sign.

Zhi Shu gestured at the size of the sign, then handed it to the Motorized Lizard to hold, preparing to take it back to the room later and draw crop patterns on it to mark farmland plots.

 Finally, Naoki made two more wooden sticks and brought them back to the front bedroom.

“Green Caterpillar, can you give me some silk?” Naoki asked.

 “Hiss~”

The green caterpillar quickly spit out a piece of silk, and Zhishu wrapped it around the two wooden sticks. In an instant, a simple clothes drying rack was ready.

“It feels pretty good. There is also a place to dry clothes.”

 Zhi Shu clapped his hands, then stood up, looked at the time, and saw that it was already seven o'clock in the evening, so he said to the three Pokémon: "Wait, I'll go cook for you right away!"

 Before starting to cook, Naoki put the firewood into the fireplace and lit it with fire.

As the flames flickered, the room slowly became warmer soon.

Zoki took off his coat and went to the kitchen area wearing only a shirt to start preparing dinner.

Today’s dinner is grilled fish. The fish chosen is rainbow trout. The meat of this fish is tender and delicious, with no fishy smell and no small bone spurs on the body. It is very suitable for cooking with charcoal grilling.

 Naoki prepared the fish, then applied a thin layer of cooking oil on the surface, and finally put it in a pan and fried it until both sides were golden brown.

When it’s almost ready, take out the fish, put the prepared sauce into the open belly of the fish, and finally bake it on an open fire.

Soon, an alluring fragrance spread in the room.

Guluton and Motorized Lizard, who were lazily yawning, smelled the smell and immediately became energetic, raising their heads and looking this way.

Naoki put the grilled fish into the plate. The golden oil slowly flowed on the fish. Under the browned fish skin was the tender fish meat like red velvet. The aroma of the sauce rushed into the nose. Just smelling it. It makes people excited.

He looked down, and the information about this dish also emerged.

[Grilled rainbow trout (B): A simple charcoal-grilled delicacy that retains the original flavor of the fish, making it an unstoppable delicacy.

 Cooking effect: Life recovery (extra large), which can restore physical strength and energy to the best state in an instant.

 Evaluation: Dishes with original flavor, extremely nutritious, suitable for all ages. ]

 Life recovery?

 It is equivalent to the effect of a full potion plus a bottle of pp full supplements.

Overall, it is not bad.

Smelling the smell, Naoki couldn't help but take a bite. The moment he entered his mouth, he felt the crispy fish skin first, and then the soft fish meat.

The fish meat is so tender that it almost melts in your mouth. This layered texture is irresistible.

Zhishu couldn't help but want to take another bite, but suddenly he felt two burning eyes on him.

Looking up, he saw Motorized Lizard and Gulton looking expectantly while swallowing saliva.

 Naoki: “…”

 He turned around and put the other two fish in front of them, and said helplessly: "Keep it tight, your saliva is dripping on the ground."

Motor Lizard and Guledon began to feast.

Zhishu looked at the green caterpillar. However, the green caterpillar showed a lack of interest in this grilled fish.

 “Aren’t you going to eat?”

　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　ification

The green caterpillar shook its head.

 Seeing this scene, Naoki suddenly remembered that fish meat did not seem to be on the diet of Pokémon like green caterpillars.

  Compared to meat, they prefer to eat fresh green leaves and juicy and delicious tree fruits. They have a huge appetite and can eat a hundred leaves a day.

“Okay.” Zhi Shu turned around, took out the fruit from the cupboard, cut them into small pieces with a knife, and made a fruit platter for the green caterpillar.

　　Bringing the fruit platter in front of the green caterpillar, the green caterpillar’s ​​eyes suddenly showed an expression of joy, then he leaned down and began to eat the tree fruit pulp.

Seeing that it tasted delicious, Zhi Shu also took the opportunity to check the effect of the fruit platter.

[Tree Fruit Platter (C-): A delicacy made from various types of tree fruits, which combines the flavors of different tree fruits and is quite popular among some Pokémon.

 Cooking effect: Skill refining, after eating, a certain move on the Pokémon will change randomly.

Rating: Basic dishes, easy to make, and a good choice for home travel. ]

 “Poof!”

Zhi Shu almost spit out a mouthful of water.

Out!

The simple dish of fruit platter has such a special effect!

 Skill refining sounds very advanced, but in fact it is a double-edged sword that bets on one's character.

　　Commonly known as looking at faces.

 In the game, after the player feeds it to the villain, the skills mastered by the villain will change randomly.

There are five types of changes, namely:

 1, the skill level is improved and the power is increased.

  2, the skill level is lowered and the power is reduced.

  3, forget this skill.

 4, skill specialization, which brings special changes to this skill.

 5, comprehend skills, comprehend a new skill.

 In his previous life, the game company he worked for was almost sprayed to death by players because of the effect of this dish.

Many players originally wanted to strengthen the skills of the villains they cultivated, but after feeding them to the villains, they were shocked to find that the skills of the villains were not only not strengthened, but were also forgotten.

The player did not believe in evil, so he fed a dozen more times in a row, and then the first whiteboard villain in the game was born.

The angry player almost came to attack the planner without raising a knife.

Thinking of this, Zhi Shu looked at the fruit eaten by the green caterpillar.

 It was too late for him to stop it now.

  Waiting patiently for the green caterpillar to finish eating, Naoki asked tentatively: "Green caterpillar, do you feel any changes in your body? For example, your moves or something..."

　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　ification

Hearing this, the green caterpillar was puzzled at first, and then began to carefully feel the changes in his body.

Soon, it seemed to have discovered something, and a bright light bulb appeared above its head: "Hiss!"

"Um?"

The green caterpillar took a deep breath and opened its mouth into an O shape.

Immediately afterwards, a net made of white worm silk shot out from it.

Different from ordinary worm threads, the net was actually flashing with strands of yellow electric light!

Seeing this scene, Naoki immediately took a breath of cold air.

 Because he already knew the changes in the green caterpillar.

That fruit platter, let it learn the power grid!
