Elf: Hard work pays off, and I became Giovanni.

Page 498

Lu Chen stared at the palm-sized black ID and didn't react for a moment.

"This was jointly recommended by Grandpa Tian and Grandpa Zhang. You are now an official member of the Twelve Earthly Branches."

"But... given my strength, I'm afraid I'm not even qualified to enter the Twelve Earthly Branches, am I?"

"Hehe, you just said you weren't even afraid of the guardian deity of the Sunset Kingdom, so you're afraid of not being able to pass the test of the Twelve Earthly Branches?"

"..."

"Hahaha, I'm just kidding." Xiang Chenxi laughed heartily, revealing her two tiger teeth.

She patted Lu Chen on the shoulder and explained in a bossy manner.

"This is the certificate for non-staff personnel of the Twelve Earthly Branches. With your current abilities, the Special Management Office is no longer suitable for you."

"You'll find it useful in many places once you enter the world of the Twelve Earthly Branches."

"Just like your Nova Project mission... handle the special secrets of Xiashan City."

Although Lu Chen's current strength is enough to break all the rules.

However, Xiang Chenxi, who frequently goes on and carries out missions, knows very well that sometimes identity is far more important than ability.

Even in some places.

It will reduce a lot of unnecessary trouble.

"Sister Chenxi, you know?" Lu Chen's expression froze.

"Yes, the situation in Xiashan City is much easier than in other secret realms, and it's currently under control. However... after this competition, you still need to get there as soon as possible, since the situation within the secret realms is complex, and no one can accurately predict it."

"I see."

Lu Chen nodded.

after all.

He can be considered a trainer who has experienced life and death in the hidden realm of Taiping City.

The problems within the secret realm may not seem serious at first glance, but if left unchecked, they could easily escalate into an unstoppable catastrophe!

"Lu Chen, I'm sorry, I was supposed to give you a break after the competition, but..."

"I understand, Sister Chenxi."

Lu Chen smiled and shook his head.

During this period, after experiencing the assassination attempts by the Peaceful Secret Realm and the World Organization, and even the provocations by the Elf Alliance.

He was well aware that the difficulties facing the Dragon Kingdom were far greater than those faced by other countries.

At the same time, it can be said with great certainty.

So far.

The Dragon Kingdom is undoubtedly the safest, most stable, and most peaceful country on Earth.

none of them! !

If it were any other country...

After revealing so many powerful trump cards, it's absolutely impossible for him to remain unscathed and participate in the competition.

Although some cases of riots by elf hunters have still occurred.

However, compared to the scale of other countries.

China is truly a pure land.

"Um……"

Xiang Chenxi looked into Lu Chen's eyes and her expression softened.

"Also... the rewards you received for handling the shopping mall matter last time, as well as the rewards for the New Star Project, are all stored in this ID card."

"There is a reward of 300,000 Elf Coins, and five borrowing privileges from the Dragon Kingdom Library."

"You may borrow any skill manuals and secret techniques from the Dragon Kingdom Library five times!"

Five times?!

The last time the New Star Project mentioned three times, right?

There were two more times...

"Two of them were added by the boss himself, after all, the last incident had a huge impact."

Xiang Chenxi winked at Lu Chen.

The meaning is self-evident.

"I understand, thank you," Lu Chen nodded in reply.

He understands.

This was Guo Wenlong's way of trying to win him over.

"Make good use of these five opportunities! The Dragon Kingdom Library contains the life insights of all the Dragon Kingdom's past Master-level trainers."

The life lessons learned by all the master-level trainers in the Dragon Kingdom!?

Lu Chen stared wide-eyed in surprise.

No way! ?

"Hehe, get used to it. Although the work is a bit busy after joining the Twelve Earthly Branches, the benefits are really good. You'll see later."

Xiang Chenxi smiled.

She was also lured into joining the Twelve Earthly Branches by Jiang Yu in the same way.

but.

Back then, she wasn't treated as well as Lu Chen.

Moreover, since the establishment of the Twelve Earthly Branches, the status of these Twelve Earthly Branches as unofficial members has never been given to any one person.

Lu Chen...

This is the first one in the last hundred years!

"Oh, right!"

Lu Chen, who had just put these things away, suddenly remembered something.

I quickly grabbed my phone and looked through it.

Then, looking at Xiang Chenxi, he asked, "Sister Chenxi, do you know that those secret realms have special magnetic fields?"

"Special magnetic field?"

"Hmm... I really didn't notice that. I'll look it up for you when I get back."

Xiang Chenxi was taken aback.

Then, as if remembering something, he couldn't help but say, "You're looking for a special magnetic field? Could it be that the Horned Rhinoceros is about to evolve again?"

"Sister Chenxi, you know about this too?"

"Hehe, don't underestimate the information channels of the Twelve Earthly Branches, but the special magnetic field required for the evolution of the Rhinoceros is even more special than that of other Pokémon..."

"It requires a secret realm where the earth's energy is exceptionally active. Don't worry, I'll look it up when I get back."

"Okay, thank you, Sister Chenxi!"

"Nothing. By the way, have you prepared the protective gear for evolution?"

Hearing Xiang Chenxi ask this question.

Lu Chen couldn't help but smile and pointed to the huge central arena outside the window.

"Once you win the championship, you'll have it, right?"

"...Good lad!"

Xiang Chenxi remained silent for a while, then gave Lu Chen a thumbs up after guessing correctly.

After exchanging a few more pleasantries, he left the room.

Lu Chen, however, paused for a moment, holding the black ID number 133 in his hand.

Immediately.

He gripped it tightly.

Looking at the Beedrill behind him, who was training with its eyes closed, he said:

"Beedrill, tomorrow's match..."

……

Early the next morning.

Lu Chen packed everything up and walked out of the Elf Hotel.

behind him.

There were also a few familiar figures.

"Go for it, Lu Chen!"

"Boss!"

"Captain, if we win this time, I'll treat you to a full-on massage..."

"..."

With the encouragement of the Rockets members.

Bai Miao, Wu Lan, and the other team members from the three universities all cheered for Lu Chen with smiles on their faces!

"The Beedrill and the others are in perfect condition. This time... let's do a good job!"

Teacher Li Qing stepped forward.

He handed the three Poké Balls to Lu Chen.

At the same time, a hint of a smile appeared on his usually gentle and cold face.
