It all started with Team Rocket

At around six o'clock in the morning, Youshi was awakened by the cry of bird spirits outside the window. He touched the back of his head and found that the wound had basically healed. He took off the gauze, washed briefly, then put on his medicine bag and went out to the Changpan Forest. .

Passing by the grassland yesterday, I picked a few wild fruits for breakfast to fill my stomach.Along the way, I also met a few colleagues who got up early to collect herbs. They simply nodded to each other and continued on their way. Everyone was at the bottom, and no one knew when they would die. They might be killed in an alley. The underworld blackmails and kills, or the elves may go crazy when collecting medicine and become a cold number in the ranger's investigation report, so there is no need to exchange pleasantries, everyone can just live on their own.

About three and ten minutes away, Yushi came to a small forest on the outskirts of Joban Forest where he often came to collect herbs in his memory. Green caterpillars would occasionally appear in it, and even unicorn worms had been encountered several times in the past five years.

Of course, I had always stayed away from it before and went to other places to collect herbs.Because in the wild, even a weak green caterpillar can easily knock over twenty or thirty kilograms of rocks with a single impact skill. If it hits a person, it will either kill or injure it, which is completely different from the animation.

Youshi first followed his memory and slowly searched in the forest. An ordinary healing grass can be sold for 50 alliance coins. With some auxiliary materials and special techniques, it can be made into a wound medicine priced at 200, which can be used for simple treatment. Elf's skin wounds allow the wounds to heal faster.

Other serious injuries can only be alleviated and require more advanced medicine or recovery at the elf center set up by the alliance.

He searched carefully among the grass, and the morning passed quickly. Youshi found three gypsy grasses, and the harvest was good.

Just when Youshi was about to finish today's herb picking session and go back, he inadvertently caught a glimpse of red in the grass on the side. He turned his head and took a closer look. He found that it was actually a rare flame fruit, which can be used to make flame potions. , long-term use of this potion, fire elves can increase the power of fire skills, and other elves can increase their resistance to fire.Therefore, potions with similar properties have always been a hot-selling product, and of course the price is not cheap.

What makes Youshi happy is that the purchase price of even one flame fruit in the alliance store is 1500 to 2000 alliance coins (because the output of each region is different, the price fluctuates slightly). The purchase price of two fruits is that of Gray Rock Town. That's 3600 alliance coins. These two fruits are worth his savings in the previous five years.

After careful observation, Youshi confirmed that there were no wild elves nearby, then quickly came to the grass, took out herb scissors and carefully cut off the two fruits and put them into a medicine bag. Then he immediately left the woods and headed towards the town. Walk to the store.

Because he was afraid that running would damage the fruit, Youshi didn't dare to walk too fast along the way. When he waited at the entrance of the alliance store, he checked his backpack and found that the fruit was intact.

"Hello, are you selling medicinal materials?" Although I have met Okita Yushi many times, the receptionist at the counter still asked as usual.

"Yes, three healing grasses and two flame fruits."

"One Yucao plant costs 50 alliance coins, three plants cost 150. Our current purchase price for the flame fruit is 1800 alliance coins for one, and 3600 alliance coins for two flame fruits, for a total of 3750 alliance coins."

Youshi nodded, and the receptionist handed over the money. After confirming that it was correct, he put it into the lining pocket of his clothes, then turned around and left.

He carefully returned home and stored the 3500 alliance coins together with the previous 3000. He also kept 250 in reserve.

Youshi put down his medicine-collecting backpack, wiped the sweat from his body briefly, and sat down to rest and think about his plans for the afternoon.

If he didn't have such good luck as today, it would take at least a month to collect enough money to buy an elf on the black market just by collecting healing grass and other low-value herbs. He desperately wanted money and wanted to An elf of its own.So Youshi decided to go to the black market in the town in the afternoon to check out the situation.

I took a brief rest and thought about the future path.After owning elves, you need more money. Nutritional products, medicines for cultivating elves, treatment and recovery after injuries in training battles, etc. are all huge expenses.

Okita Yushi is an orphan, and there is definitely no way to go through formal channels, unless he meets a noble person, but he will not put his hope in such illusory things.

Apart from the righteous path, there is only the evil path.

The Gray Rock Town where Yushi is located belongs to Nibi City and is located in the Kanto region of the Kanto continent. The dark forces active in this area are the Rockets who often appear in the animation. Of course, they are different from the three funny guys in the animation. The Rockets As a dark organization, the team must have done a lot of illegal and criminal things. Joining it is equivalent to dyeing yourself black. It will not be that easy to escape in the future.

Or become an elf hunter and capture high-value elves to sell on the black market.Of course, this will also attract attacks from the alliance, but being a hunter will give you more freedom than joining a dark organization. However, there is no fixed way to obtain some precious knowledge, skills, etc. You can only rely on luck to buy them from the black market.

After briefly thinking about various routes in his mind, Youshi still couldn't make up his mind. After all, this decision would affect his future life, so he had to be cautious.

Youshi locked the door and walked towards the center of the town. He passed by a shop and bought something similar to hand cakes in his previous life and ate it while walking.

Entering the black market, it was like a vegetable market in the previous life. There were stalls on the ground and shops. However, everyone was very quiet and kept their voices as low as possible when talking.

Youshi wandered around casually, looking carefully at each stall. There were green caterpillars for 8000 yuan, unicorn worms for 10000 yuan, Rattata for 15000 yuan, as well as Bobo and Spearow, the common birds in previous games. They were just comparing prices. It’s expensive, costing [-] to [-] alliance coins.

There were other equipment for elf training, tree fruits, and even a somewhat damaged electric shock skill disc that Yushi saw.

After all, it was just a small town and the black market was not big, so Youshi took a look around in a while.The main purpose of going to the black market is to see the prices of various types of elves on the black market, and of course I also have a sense of picking up the slack.

It's a pity that Youshi doesn't have the aura of a protagonist. Unlike the protagonists in previous novels, he can casually find treasures on street stalls.

Just as Youshi was about to leave the black market, a commotion broke out at a stall not far away. Many people gathered around him. He stopped and walked over there.

Arriving at the stall, Youshi remembered that this was the stall that sold skill CDs before.At this time, all the goods on the stall had been emptied, and the stall owner was nowhere to be found. Only a large poster was left, with the meaning of the "R" in red letters on a black background ready to be revealed.

What made everyone couldn't help but discuss each other was the words above, "Team Rocket is recruiting new members. The joining fee is 5000, and initial elves will be provided. Those who want to join Team Rocket should go three kilometers north of the town before noon tomorrow. We will not wait if you are late."
