Pokémon: The King of Extras

"So you're still here,"

He looked surprised,

"I called you so many times before but you didn't show up, I thought you had left long ago."

"Ah!"

"It's really hard to not have a reply, but being ignored is also unavoidable."

"Ah~"

"Now there are no ingredients on hand, and the journey is so long, you want to eat, but there's nothing to cook for the time being."

"Ah?"

"Yes, yes, it's just too sudden, there's no time to react."

One man and one fox, one after another, the captain and the corporal cooperated tacitly, and quickly pushed the problem back.

After saying this, he clapped his hands affectionately.

The dream demon seemed to be fixed in place, unable to make any sound.

The fledgling little guy had difficulty dealing with the insidiousness and cunningness of humans and evil Pokémon.

After hesitating for a long time, he bent down a little nervously.

"Dream?"

"Even if you say so, you can't cook a meal that suits your taste without the right ingredients." Yu Zhou was helpless.

"Dream..."

The dream demon suddenly wilted.

A head of flowing ghostly hair, lifeless and drooping to the ground.

"But it's not nothing,"

Yu Zhou unzipped his backpack and took out a bag of individually packaged marshmallows, "Thick biscuits sandwiched with roasted marshmallows, how about making do with it for now?"

"Dream!" The dream demon suddenly became energetic.

"Oh?"

Obviously, he had chosen the gift for Ai Guanshi, but now he had to give it to someone else. Soroya stepped on Yu Zhou's shoes in dissatisfaction and looked up at him.

"It's just an emergency,"

Yu Zhou reached out and touched Soroya's head, "Can we buy the gift later?"

"Oh!"

"No way, it's already been promised, tell me what you want, and I'll try my best to satisfy you?"

Yu Zhou, who signed an unequal contract again because of a bag of marshmallows, just raised his head and saw the dream demon with a full armful of firewood, full of expectations.

"..."

This guy is really timid and greedy.

He casually found a shady place nearby, lit a fire, and burned firewood.

Taking this opportunity, Yu Zhou secretly used the Eye of Illusion to observe the Dream Demon.

He found that her body surface had a slightly strange feeling. From a close distance, it looked like a low-resolution computer picture.

"Illusion?" He thought to himself.

Just like Zoroark.

The Dream Demon is also a master at distorting space and playing with illusions.

In a certain part of the anime version, the purple Rayquaza was even created with illusions, which caused great trouble to the protagonists.

As the evolutionary pre-form of the Dream Demon, the Dream Demon naturally has unique abilities.

Although not as natural as Zoroark, it is also very powerful.

However,

the illusion that can easily deceive other trainers is difficult to interfere with Yu Zhou who is familiar with Zoroark.

With just two glances,

he can be sure that the Dream Demon's body is covered with a thin layer of color.

Is it because of cowardice?

Or do you not want people to see her different-colored skin...

It's possible.

But it doesn't matter.

Sharpen the top of the branch, put a fluffy marshmallow on it, and then hand it to the Dream Demon.

The little guy saw this novel food for the first time and couldn't help but take a few more glances.

He raised his confused little face, not knowing what process to follow.

"Wait a moment."

Yu Zhou quickly peeled the second one, put the marshmallow on it, and handed it to Soraya who secretly stepped on his shoes with his paw.

The big fox looked at it for a while, hummed and decided not to pursue it.

I really don't know how heavy I am?

'Even the little kid is jealous! '

After complaining in his heart, Yu Zhou turned his head and said to Meng Yao: "You can learn from her and bake it on the fire."

"Ah~"

Soraya didn't hate this timid guy.

He called out to her and immediately placed his marshmallow more than ten centimeters away from the flame.

After a few seconds, the marshmallow made a sizzling sound, and a caramel aroma spread.

Meng Yao followed suit and quickly handed the branch over.

Yu Zhou didn't make another one for himself.

He opened a ration biscuit for emergency use and took a bite.

After confirming that the crispness and taste are both on point, take out the jam and tree fruit seasoning from the bag and add a basic flavor to the biscuits.

Wait until Zoroya roasts the marshmallows to the right temperature and sandwich them with two biscuits.

The crispy shell on the outside crackles and the soft sugary heart inside is soft and tempting, which immediately attracts the attention of the dream demon.

The last and most critical step.

Holding a high-quality peach fruit energy cube, it is placed right on top of the biscuit sandwiching the roasted marshmallows.

This afternoon emergency in the wild... er, morning tea, is complete.

Handing it to Zoroya, whose face said, "If you dare to care for strange Pokémon again, I will end my friendship," Yu Zhou urged, "Try it quickly and see if it tastes good."

Zoroya took a big bite.

The sweet marshmallows, clean biscuits, and tree fruit seasonings are perfectly mixed together.

The layered texture of the jam and the special taste of the energy cubes are squeezed and mixed in the mouth to create a completely different flavor.

Soraya's eyes suddenly lit up.

"Ah!"

"There are some left. It's okay if I eat it later." Yu Zhou stuffed the rest into her mouth.

Turning his head to look at Meng Yao, he found that she had been staring straight at him. His stick had fallen into the firewood pile at some point, and the marshmallows were burnt out of sight.

The little guy was in a panic after noticing the sight, and finally failed to save the dog.

Even the stick was gone, it was burnt to pieces.

"Next, I will guide you to bake it little by little, don't be distracted by other things, okay?"

"Dream~"

Considering that it is not suitable for children to eat too much candy, Yu Zhou only baked it two or three times and then extinguished the fire.

Meng Yao and Soraya were quite satisfied.

Energy cubes and biscuits are very filling snacks.

After adding tree fruit seasoning and jam, the marshmallows were baked until hot, and the taste was not inferior to the skewers this morning.

When he stood up again, Yu Zhou glanced at the 80 points of favorability in Meng Yao's status bar, and casually asked about the fainting yesterday.

"Dream~"

The little Meng Yao was in a very good mood, and without hesitation, he directly told the abnormality of that area.

The strange hypnotic wave will only be emitted in the afternoon~

"Hypnotic wave?"

There is no Pokémon around that can detect it, so Yu Zhou can only ask, "Is it a Pokémon or a remnant of the machine?"

"Dream~" Meng Yao couldn't figure it out.

She only knew that since the past few months, the afternoon of that area has become a forbidden area in everyone's eyes.

Pokémon that stray into it will be unconscious for several hours at the least, or will never wake up at the worst, without any exception.

When Yu Zhou and Zoroya were "attacked", she also secretly watched for a long time before deciding to try to rescue them.

Yu Zhou nodded in understanding.

In other words, except for the afternoon time period, other times are safe?

A few months ago...

Excluding wild Pokémon that are unlikely to maintain hypnosis all the time, this kind of instrument without any external prompts is definitely not the style of a forest ranger.

In other words, it is very likely the masterpiece of a criminal organization?

It has not been discovered for such a long time, this place is really "desolate".

Yu Zhou pondered.

After a moment, he had a plan.

"Let's finish this journey first, and then think about whether to come back and have a look!"
