This seems to be just an unremarkable commission. After the finalization, Natsu received a deposit of 20,000 Alliance coins.
Cash.
After all, Natsu is only the first time to attend such a party, and the deposit of 20,000 is not a small amount.
The real valuable valuable for this entrustment is Master Suzuki's letter, which can only be regarded as a bonus.
The meeting continues.
"Hiccup—isn't there anyone? Then please take a look at this thing in my hand?"
The man sitting in front of the coffee table burped wine , the strong smell of alcohol instantly filled the small room.
I saw that he took out a string of wooden beads.
Natsu was taken aback when he saw this string of beads.
Because he still remembered the monk with wine and meat at the entrance of the black market yesterday, and he was holding such a bead in his hand.
So, he's that Little Monk?
Considering the bar is outside, it seems reasonable for him to be here.
"This string of beads is from the treasure of Bell Tower, and is made of materials blessed by the Divine Beast Ho-Oh Sacred Fire. It is sold for 10,000 Alliance Coins."
Natsu: "."
The corners of his eyes were twitched.
It's obviously the same bead, but it was only 500 when it was sold to the old man who was the gatekeeper in the black market yesterday. Oh no, the price was reduced to 400.
Now it costs 10,000!
So this monk asks different prices for different people, right?
How many beads do you have to sell. Natsu couldn't help but murmured.
But Divine Beast Ho-Oh's Sacred Fire managed to attract the attention of many in the room.
Not to mention, it is very useful, at least adding such a title, the hidden value of the beads will be raised all of a sudden.
But the people here are not fools. The beads are very ordinary at first glance. After a little attention, they looked away one by one.
Only when Natsu thought no one would be fooled, the "breed teacher" suddenly spoke up.
"Oh? Interesting, sell it to me."
Little Monk laughed.
"Finally I met someone who knows the goods."
Eagerly exchanged this string of beads for a whole ten thousand Alliance coins, and the other people in the room were stunned for a moment.
Even Natsu couldn't help but wonder.
Does this string of beads really have a history?
Just when he looked towards Little Monk suspiciously, he just met Little Monk's line of sight, and a pair of pure eyes under the mask winked at him.
Natsu tilted his head nonchalantly.
After a few minutes, no one spoke in the room, "breed teacher" opened the mouth and said: "Then today's meeting is over, the next meeting will be organized by old Bill, you guys You can wait for him to call."
The voice fell, he stood up slowly, and the Duskull before him also obediently followed him.
He opened the other side door first and walked out.
When it was Natsu's turn, he didn't hesitate.
But when he walked through the door, Abra, who was already asleep in his clothes, suddenly moved and woke up.
After a slight dizziness, when he regained his sight, he was already in an unfamiliar place.
"With the door of the Teleport?"
"Keah~~"
Abra slowly got out of Natsu's clothes and gently Rubbing against Natsu's body, it also sensed the effect of Psychic.
"The confidentiality measures are well done. It should not be the first time that such a party has been organized, right? Who is the initiator? Need to avoid the sight of Team Rocket. And that Little Monk, who seems to recognize me ? "
Natsu had a lot of doubts in his heart.
He actually wanted to propose some deals afterward, such as Tom Ritchie, which he could never let go of, or some news or intelligence about Jimmy Sato.
Others may not know, but maybe the organizer "breed division" can know a little bit, even if he doesn't know the information about Tom Ritchie and Jimmy Sato, it should be relatively easy to find a lot.
Only considering that it was the first time to attend such a party, he chose to wait.
"mother, hungry~~milk~~"
Abra's crisp voice resounded in Natsu's head.
The corners of his mouth twitched, taking a deep breath, without answering.
After a little bit of orientation, moved towards the residence.
Going out to look for dragon fire fruit tomorrow, some necessary preparations need to be done.
Dragon fire fruit has a greater effect on Fire Element Pokémon, and is one of the main materials required by many Fire Element Pokémon Pokéblocks.
He evolved from Kakuna to Beedrill last time, and he saw a little bit by chance when he came back.
But because he didn't know what was going on at the time, and Beedrill had only just evolved, he didn't take the plunge.
But this time there was plenty of time, and as a brief full test of Beedrill's strength, and the Suzuki Master's Breeder Codex as a reward, and the danger wasn't too high, Natsu decided to try.
"It's just that although there are not many dragon fire fruit, it is not uncommon. The dragon fire fruit in Saffron City has been swept away?"
As he walked, Natsu's mind was sorted. Participating in some sporadic information from today's gathering, after the Zapdos incident, he gradually got used to analyze some useful or useless information from various aspects.
Of course, he still has a more important thing to do now.
The pace quickened, and slowly turned into a trot, until it turned into a fast run.
"Abra! I'm not your mother for once! And… where are you biting?!"
Morning Sun was faint and dark.
The next day.
Natsu, ready to go, packed his bags and took his Pokémon to the club instead of setting off directly.
Anyway, when he was out, he had to do one task and two tasks. He wanted to see if there were any tasks in the club that just happened to be done together.
Abra's birth made him feel the pressure again.
More money is needed.
The only thing that makes him more fortunate is that it seems that Abra's movements when he was born are a little extravagant, and the rest seem to be not much different from ordinary Abras.
This made him worry about Abra's runaway heart of Genetic Kadabra Psychic, and put it away.
I just don't know if Abra has any Genetic moves. I can't see it now, and I'll know when it ends its growth period.
After all, Abra's sleepiness has always been criticized by this Pokémon. If there is no Genetic move, it will be more difficult to train.
Touching Abra, who fell asleep like a kitten in his arms, he walked out of the club.
On the way, Natsu takes on another Pokémon capture quest.
It's an extra income.
Take a taxi out of the city center and quickly arrive at the edge of Saffron City.
When he was about to enter the field, he was stopped by two people who looked like Alliance staff.
"Hello sir, it is not recommended to enter the danger zone at this time," one of them said politely.
"Why?" Natsu stopped.
The man said after a little wording: "For some reason, the Wild Pokémon around Saffron City are somewhat active, and the offensive to human beings is also much greater. Many people have already encountered danger, if not If necessary, it is recommended not to go out for a short period of time.
This is for your safety."
Overactive Wild Pokémon?
Natsu thought of the skinny man who posted the mission at the party, and seemed to have mentioned it, but Natsu didn't care at the time, after all, he had just returned from the wild.
But now it seems that even the Alliance has been dispatched, which seems to be a little serious.
"many thanks, I'll be careful, but I do have to go out." Natsu thanked him.
"Then you must be careful, this is a signal flare provided by our Trainer guild. If you encounter an emergency, you can send a flare to get rescue."
Natsu hesitated, but continued Signal flare.
This cast a cloud over his originally confident outing.
