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

"Oh no, it's so late."

Li Ran was awakened by a ray of sunlight. He looked at the alarm clock and felt terrible. He quickly put on his clothes and woke up Xiaoshui who was lying on the bed.

"Xiaoshui, wake up quickly. We have to go out today."

Fortunately, the food had already been bought and put into the backpack yesterday. As for why I was in such a hurry, it was because we had eaten so much yesterday. If we didn’t go out to make money, we would both starve to death. After washing up, I hurriedly put Xiaoshui back into the Poké Ball and went out.

Catching up with the bus passing through the rocky valley, Li Ran still held his backpack in front of him even though he was sitting in his seat. There was no other way as almost all his belongings were on the bus. Food being stolen was a small matter, but if the three Poké Balls were stolen, he would cry to death.

"We have arrived at the Rocky Valley. Please take your belongings with you and be careful when getting off the bus. Thank you for your cooperation."

Not many people got off at this stop. As soon as Li Ran got off the bus, he was choked by a gust of wind and started coughing. Because there had been no rain for a long time, the wind was full of sand and dust.

After careful observation, I found that it was almost entirely brown and yellow mountains. The only green plant that could be seen was the entrance where there were many people and banners hanging.

The banner clearly stated: Ordinary people are not allowed to enter.

"Hello, I want to enter the Rocky Valley."

Li Ran looked at the crowd. Everyone had to get a nod from two strong men wearing sunglasses before they could enter.

The two of them looked at him, and their serious expressions made people feel a little nervous.

"It's not that trainers can't go in."

"I'm a trainer! This is my Pokémon."

To prove your identity as a trainer when you go out, you only need to show your pokedex. Li Ran's action surprised the two of them a little. After all, Li Ran looked to be in his early 20s, and especially since Li Ran came alone, they had to remind him.

"I suggest you go somewhere else first. It's very dangerous here."

"Thank you for your reminder. I will stay on the edge and not go into the deep valley."

They would not force Li Ran to enter despite his insistence. After all, Li Ran was a trainer and met the entry criteria.

"Let me see... the Geodude distribution is... Got it! It's in Area 05!"

Li Ran found his target on the distribution map on the wall. Although these elves have not been included yet, it does not mean that there are no photos. It is just that they are difficult to capture and make proper analysis.

When he ran his fingers over other areas, he truly understood the extent of the danger.

The Pokémon that appear in the Deep Valley are simply impossible for a new trainer to defeat. Not only is there the gigantic Onix, but there is also the Carbonarius with the dual attributes of rock and fire. Not only do the two occupy two mountain ranges respectively, they also reproduce their own populations in their respective mountains.

"Forget it. We can't defeat them now anyway, so we should just go to the Geodude area."

Although Li Ran had a yearning for this kind of elves, his strength did not allow him to do so. He confirmed the direction and walked towards Area 05. He did not encounter many elves on the way, which was probably affected by the appearance of humans.

On the road, he passed by three middle-aged trainers who were holding their Pokémons. When they saw the direction Li Ran was going, they didn't take it seriously.

"Another guy who wants to take the bonus."

"Let him be. It seems that what we are talking about is not the same."

"Let's take the elves to get treatment as soon as possible."

All three of them were killed with a single blow, but luckily they had experienced this more than once, so they already had the knack for escaping. But in addition to the nice bonus, the first person to catch one could get the right to name it, which would be of great help to future trainers.

After walking for a while on the mountain road, it became noticeably wider. Li Ran thought it should be nearby. He stopped and looked around. He wanted to find a way out because there was no sunlight coming in here and there was a lot of moss growing, which was not suitable for the living environment of Geodude.

Sure enough, he found an exit in a place covered with vines. After going out, Li Ran clearly felt the rising temperature because of the high altitude and the strong sun in summer.

In front of them was a flat open space. On the uneven ground, the Geodudes were lazily closing their eyes, enjoying the sunbath and sleeping soundly. Their heads were gray pebbles, and under their raised stone eyebrows were a pair of trapezoidal eyes, a naturally formed mouth, and a pair of muscular arms.

"Wow, there are so many of them! There must be about a hundred of them!"

Li Ran suddenly felt his scalp tingling. He could already imagine the scene of more than a hundred bombs exploding at the same time. After calming down, he thought quickly.

"Those three people must have used some method to disperse the Geodudes... What was that?"

Li Ran looked at another open space, where there was a dark mark, which was obviously caused by the destruction of the whole place by the Fist Rock. After checking the surroundings for a while, he finally found a way.

There were several empty cans, which meant they were using food to lure Geodude. This kind of food was also very common on the market, and Li Ran had several of them in his backpack.

"Alas, you can't catch a wolf without sacrificing a lamb."

Li Ran sighed and took out a can, hoping that the remaining cans would be enough for Xiao Shui to eat.

After opening a can, he waited quietly for a Geodude to appear. Soon, the nearest Geodude opened his confused eyes and excitedly ran towards the can, followed by two more Geodudes.

Li Ran was not in a hurry. He waited for them to eat slowly and then caught whoever finished eating last.

A can was quickly divided up by three small fist stones. The only one left was the one that woke up first. Li Ran was sure that this one was definitely a greedy one. It was still licking the residue in the can after it had eaten everything.

"Right now! Come on, Xiaoshui!"

After the other two Geodudes returned, Li Ran jumped out directly. Their hearing was very poor, and Li Ran was not afraid of waking up the Geodudes that were dozens of meters away.

Of course, apart from the noise caused by the explosion.

"knock!"

Seeing Xiao Shui suddenly appear, Geodude was obviously startled, and then looked at it dangerously.

"system!"

Li Ran shouted, and a light screen appeared.

Elf name: Fist of Stone (male)

Strength level: Rookie 2nd stage

Attribute: Rock\Ground

Skills: Impact (intermediate), Round (elementary), Roll (elementary), Rockfall (elementary), Burn Together (advanced)

Features: Hard head (will not be damaged by the reaction force of its own moves.)

After reading it, Li Ran's mouth twitched unnaturally. Wow, it turns out you are also an artist. You can even reach a high level of proficiency in a self-destruct skill. No wonder so many trainers can't do anything to you.

"Don't be careless, Xiaoshui. This is our first battle. You must be careful!"

"Click!"

Xiaoshui's eyes hardly left Geodude. He had already sensed the dangerous aura from Geodude.

When Geodude saw a human appear behind Mizuki, he immediately became alert and thrust his hands into the ground.
