I just want to give the elves a home. What's wrong with that?

“It feels like there have been some big changes here.”

Li Ran thought about taking Xiaolong home to visit his parents during the Chinese New Year. Standing in front of the rocky valley, he actually felt a little strange.

In less than a year, the original gate seemed to have been redone and the entrance was replaced with electronic equipment.

It’s just that the security personnel who were originally guarding here changed from standing outside to standing in the security booth. Even the personnel have not changed. Li Ran can still recognize those faces.

Seeing Li Ran trying to enter, the door of the security booth opened and a strange expression appeared on his face.

"Little brother, you're here to train during the Chinese New Year. Why don't you spend the New Year with your family?"

What the uncle said was not completely unreasonable. After all, at this moment, there was no one around except Li Ran and Yanyan.

"Brother, there are only two of us in our family, so we thought we could just go out and hang out during the New Year, just as if it were a trip."

After saying this, the uncle was stunned at first, then he felt endless guilt in his heart, and he wanted to slap himself at this moment.

Li Ran knew why the uncle's face changed, so he changed the subject.

"Brother, aren't you going home for the New Year?"

The uncle's thoughts suddenly opened up, and then he sighed heavily.

"My home is right here. I go back at night and come to work overtime during the day. After all, I get triple the salary."

Li Ran suddenly realized and then said a few words about family matters and walked in.

Snapped!

"I'm so damned good."

The uncle slapped himself only when Li Ran and the other man disappeared from his sight.

......

"Remember, try to follow me later, and don't run around by yourself."

After walking for a distance, Li Ran started talking again, and Yanyan covered her ears directly.

"Brother, you've said it a hundred times, I know it!!"

Li Ran laughed dryly, as if he had repeated it too many times, and then threw out a Poké Ball.

"Xiaolong, come out and lead the way."

"Roar!"

As soon as Xiaolong came out, his eyes lit up. He was familiar with this place.

With Xiaolong's leadership, the elves they met along the way couldn't help but retreat, which saved a lot of trouble.

Passing by a familiar open space, Li Ran suddenly remembered that he seemed to have forgotten an elf.

"Rumble Rock, come out to your house soon."

As soon as Rhydon came out of the Poké Ball, he gave Li Ran a resentful look. That look clearly meant, "You've forgotten me, right?"

The appearance of Rhydon suddenly made the open space lively. Many Frogs gathered around. They could recognize the aura of their tribe members.

Rhydon, who was surrounded by Geodudes, was like a king at this moment, with a big smile on his face. The Rhydons that were originally somewhat provocative, surrendered directly after Rhydon was defeated by one of his moves.

Then he showed a flattering smile and asked about the experience of Rhydon's evolution.

"We left Rhyo Rock. If it doesn't work out, we can come back next time."

Seeing Rhydon being dragged by his tribe members and immersed in all kinds of flattery, Li Ran was speechless. He couldn't do the same thing as Ash did, and the Geodude tribe here was not dangerous at all. Who would dare to provoke a group of self-destructing bombs?

"Your family is actually going to step over the giant rock snake tribe?"

Li Ran suddenly stopped. Those things in front of him that were curled up like a pile of rocks, weren’t they Onix?

The little dragon nodded proudly and gestured a few times with his hands, indicating that they were beneath his own group and that there was no need to be afraid of them.

"It turns out that Onix can't help hibernating in the winter."

After passing by, Li Ran found that the giant rock snakes had fallen into a deep sleep and could not wake up even if you knocked them with your hands.

"Stop touching me, let's go."

Driven by curiosity, he threw ten Poké Balls at one of the Onix, and he actually succeeded in catching it with the last one. When they wake up in the spring, they probably won't notice that one of their members is missing, right?

Li Ran suddenly felt guilty and pulled Yanyan away, who was poking Onix with her fingers.

After passing through Onix's territory, a completely different scene appeared. It was all sand, without even a bit of snow.

"Is this your territory?"

Li Ran stood on tiptoe and looked for a long time, but did not see a single elf.

Xiaolong nodded and continued to lead them inside, and soon they arrived near a small hill.

The so-called hill is actually made up of eight caves, which have been almost fully developed. As soon as they stepped into the caves, Li Ran saw pairs of fierce eyes in those caves.

"Roar!"

The aura of lords and masters emanated from the cave, followed by countless strange noises behind them.

One by one, giant-jawed ants crawled out from the sand. The originally quiet and empty desert was now filled with countless giant-jawed ants.

“It turns out they are all underground!”

Yanyan's surprised voice sounded, and Li Ran's scalp tingled. The dense crowd was daunting.

"Roar!!"

Xiaolong's voice rang out, a cry unique to desert dragonflies. The unique aura of the lord made those aggressive giant-jawed ants calm down all of a sudden and burrow back into the soil.

Instead, the beings in the cave fell into silence.

"Roar?!"

Suddenly, a voice that made people feel surprised was heard, and a desert dragonfly walked out from the cave in the center, with an expression of obvious disbelief on its face.

Li Ran recognized this one at a glance. Although the other desert dragonflies were still hiding in the cave, he still checked them all due to the bug in the system. There was no other female desert dragonfly that could make the charming voice except Xiaolong's mother.

Suddenly Xiaolong became happy and quickly gave his mother a big bear hug.

"Roar."

Then the master-level desert dragonfly came out, separated the two, looked at Xiaolong carefully, and gave his daughter a proud bear hug.

"This guy is even jealous of his own wife."

Li Ran was also speechless when he saw this action.

Then the desert dragonflies in the remaining seven caves came out. After seeing the reactions of Xiaolong's parents, they all recognized the desert dragonfly in front of them, which was a different color from their own.

That was the heterochromatic giant-jawed ant that they rejected. Unexpectedly, in less than a year, it had reached the same height as them.

Li Ran could see regret, complexity and disdain in their eyes.

"Xin~"

As they appeared, the ultrasonic larvae flew out from nowhere and danced happily around them.

When some of the ultrasonic larvae saw the little dragon, they were obviously stunned. They were the ones who had bullied and excluded the little dragon when they were both big-jawed ants, but now the other party had transformed into a dragon.
