Chapter 520: The Source of Taijing, Taile Bagos
After hearing that Luo Mu had understood their thoughts so well, even though they didn't get along with each other and didn't like each other, Leton and Miller's satisfied eyes met in the air for a moment.
Gu Leton: This human is good.
Miller: Agree
Dr. Olin and Dr. Futu were also very curious about what kind of food Luo Mu would prepare.
According to their thinking as Pokémon doctors, Gul'ton and Mil'ton from ancient/future should not only have different preferences for food, but also have considerable differences in the types of food.
For example, Gulliver might prefer raw meat, while Milliver would prefer energy.
Considering the huge gap between the era they lived in and the present, would modern food be considered toxic to them?
These questions require careful investigation to get the answers.
As for ancient viruses, future crises and the like, this is the Pokémon world and we generally don't consider these.
After Luo Mu accurately stated their thoughts, Gulliver and Miller did not stay where they were, but returned to the Zone Zero Research Institute in high spirits.
And Luo Mu also went to the kitchen in the research institute——
To be honest, this is not a kitchen at all. It's just a bunch of heating appliances and a warehouse for storing fast food.
Luo Mu could probably imagine that every day these researchers, who wished they could split themselves into two people, would rush to the kitchen, find a bucket of instant noodles, open it, add water, boil it and eat, and then continue their research. The entire meal time would not exceed fifteen minutes.
If eating was not a necessity for humans, they might even be so fanatical as to not even eat for the sake of research progress.
Fortunately, the Padia Alliance would deliver fresh supplies every once in a while, and Luo Mu collected all the necessary ingredients from those refrigerators.
Even though most of these ingredients end up being cooked together with instant noodles, their freshness can still be guaranteed.
The lettuce leaves are as green and juicy as if they were just picked, and the freshness-locking technology is very advanced.
No wonder the little bag of secret seasoning seeds Dr. Olin gave me could grow something.
Apart from the fact that some ingredients need to be heated, the preparation method of the food that Luo Mu is going to make is not complicated. It can be said that it can be made as long as there is a table, or even without a table.
Luo Mu rummaged through the piled-up cardboard boxes and found some soft-looking white toast, some baguettes, and ordinary whole-wheat bread.
That’s right, the food that Luo Mu planned to make was something called "sandwich".
In his impression, both Gulliver and Miller have a clear preference for sandwiches.
The Padia region is based on the Iberian Peninsula, which has connections to both Spain and Portugal, and much of the food here is of that style.
Sandwiches made with white toast are very common in Luo Mu's memory, but they are relatively rare here, so it can be considered an attempt.
The baguette and stick-like whole wheat bread (barra de pan) he used as the basis for making the sandwich (Bocadillo de tortilla) which is a specialty of the Padia region. The two flavors are quite different, so Luo Mu decided to try both.
Just as he was stuffing the several kinds of bread in his hand into the box, a faint voice rang out.
"I see, Brother Luo Mu wants to make sandwiches?"
Fortunately, Luo Mu had developed a big heart and was not scared by the sudden appearance of Papa behind him. Instead, he continued to pack the bread without changing his expression.
"wake up?"
His flat, level voice sounded.
"I just woke up. I heard from my parents that you were going to prepare food for the two unnamed paradoxical Pokémon, so I came here out of curiosity."
Seeing that his sneak attack had failed, Papa could only move aside regretfully and lift up another box of ingredients.
"I often make sandwiches at home, can I help too?"
"Okay."
Luo Mu had no objection to this. He stood up steadily holding the heavy cardboard box. Perhaps on a whim, he asked curiously, "Do you know how to make a sandwich that tastes like my mom's?"
Piper: “.”
[_?]ha?
Papa looked at Luo Mu in surprise, as if she met him for the first time.
Seeing Papa's expression, Luo Mu instantly guessed that he had misunderstood and said with a dark face: "Just tell me whether you know or not."
Luo Mu was very confident that he could make delicious sandwiches.
But Luo Mu is pessimistic about whether a mother's succubus sandwich can capture the heart of Gulliver or Milliver like in the game.
So he was very curious, would Papa, who must have eaten many dishes made by Dr. Olin, know the so-called taste of mother?
"this--"
As if recalling some unspeakable memory, Piper began to stutter.
He didn't know how to tell Luo Muming that Olin's cooking skills were terrible. If he hadn't had the filter of a biological mother before and he had basically never cooked before, he would have discovered this fact long ago.
Seeing that Papa couldn't utter a word for a long time, Luo Mu waved his hand, left a sentence "Come and help me prepare the ingredients" and went to work.
In the middle of the process, he called out Hualiao Huanhuan to help him make condiments such as mayonnaise, and there was also ready-made salad dressing.
It is very simple to assemble a Padia-style sandwich. Let the Blue Flame Blade Ghost cut the stick-like whole wheat bread in half. The surface of the bread will become slightly charred and the taste will be more layered.
Assemble the sliced Iberian ham, bacon or other matured meat on the bread dough, drizzle olive oil or seasonings such as mayonnaise and ketchup on the surface, and finally assemble it and it's done.
Another type of sandwich-like food made with baguette is Tapas. Various ingredients are skewered on small bamboo sticks and placed on sliced baguette. There are not only meats such as ham, fried scallops, shrimp and sausages, but also fresh fruits and vegetables.
The last type is the sandwich that fits Luo Mu's stereotype. The ingredients are sandwiched between several pieces of white toast, and then cut diagonally. In addition to ready-made ingredients such as corn, Luo Mu also made some meat floss and fried a few eggs.
The seasoning used for this type of sandwich is usually salad dressing.
For Papa, a pure-blooded Padian, he was familiar with the first two types of sandwiches and could make them himself, but the third one was much more novel. He curiously asked Luo Mu which region's specialty sandwich this was.
Luo Mu could only answer him that regions like Kanto, Johto, Hoenn and Sinnoh were basically this type of sandwich.
When everything was done, the two of them walked towards the room where Gulliver and Milton were, holding several large plates (large rectangular iron plates) full of sandwiches.
".stare."
Dr. Olin and Dr. Futu observed Luo Mu carefully, as if they wanted to know what he was thinking as to why he would prepare sandwiches for Ancient No. 1 and Future No. 1.
It looks delicious, and the two of us are almost drooling after eating instant noodles or salads for a month.
but--
Can this thing really whet the appetite of Ancient One/Future One?
The two were skeptical.
With a safe mindset, Luo Mu tried to bring the first sandwich made of Padilla-flavored whole wheat bread to Gulden's two big nostrils. No matter what it did, it would smell it before making a decision. From this step on, it could be said that it was a life-and-death battle.
Once Gulliver is not interested, it will be even more impossible to get it to open its mouth and eat.
Fortunately, Gulden was considerate and looked at the sandwich curiously, sniffing it tentatively.
Then Gulden's eyes lit up.
It’s food!
It opened its mouth and bit down without hesitation, taking away two-thirds of the sandwich.
Maybe it was its habit. It took a bite as if it was afraid of being snatched away, so it swallowed it whole without even tasting the multiple flavors of the sandwich.
This made Luo Mu feel a little pity, and he reminded her: "Eat slowly, no one will snatch it from you."
After stuffing the last third of the sandwich into Gultun's mouth, Luo Mu tried the next two sandwiches, and Gultun's reaction remained the same.
In one word, eat!
Dr. Olin was amazed by this scene.
Ancient No. 1 is so accepting of modern food! ?
She had even considered whether she should urgently develop a nutritional supplement corresponding to Ancient No. 1.
It seems that the opponent's adaptability is quite terrifying. Is it still a paradox Pokémon after all?
Just like those paradoxical Pokémon out there, no matter where they are, they can definitely adapt to any environment, otherwise, let the environment adapt to them.
Perhaps because Luo Mu was feeding him too slowly, Leton simply picked up the large iron plate and started to eat the sandwiches piled on it as if no one was around.
From the humming sounds it makes from time to time, as well as the frequency and strength of the wagging of its tail, it can be seen that Gulton is in a good mood.
As for Milaton, surprisingly, it did not refuse Luo Mu's feeding. It was just that its eating manner was much more elegant than that of Gulalton. It ate in small bites like a big cat, but its eating speed was not inferior to that of Gulalton who was eating voraciously.
Well, the personalities of both parties are in stark contrast.
Dr. Futu was squatting on one side, and he was so busy that he was flying.
I recorded the video and wrote down my thoughts. I am still wondering why Millerton, who looks like a mechanical creature, can digest food. Does he have a module to decompose the furnace?
The two professors felt that just observing the two Pokémon, Gul'ton and Mil'ton, would probably occupy most of their daily time in the future.
After being appeased with food, the reactions of Gulliver and Milton were still surprising.
No matter where they were, one of them just fell asleep on the ground, while the other one seemed to have entered hibernation mode or shut down, and was no longer active.
Dr. Olin and Dr. Fortu conducted a comprehensive examination on them out of concern, and finally concluded that after recognizing the surrounding environment and completing their meals, the two paradoxical Pokémon began to adapt to the modern environment at the same time.
This adaptation process will often be accompanied by a certain period of drowsiness.
The solution is just one word - wait.
Just wait until they have adapted.
Luo Mu also took out the crystal from his pocket very straightforwardly and asked the two doctors how to deal with it.
The two looked at each other, smiled and suggested doing a test.
The detection itself is not troublesome. There are special machines for scanning, and the crystals will not move like Gulliver or Millerton. After debugging the equipment, it is enough to scan directly.
As a complete scan was completed, a lot of data and various charts that Luo Mu could not understand suddenly appeared on the screen that Dr. Olin was staring at.
Looking at the above content, Dr. Futu and Dr. Olin's eyes flashed with understanding. They looked at each other and thought that it was true.
This crystal, like the "Zero Secret Treasure" in the Great Zero Void, is the living form of the legendary Pokémon "Tyrbagos", which was theoretically extinct in the crustal movement two million years ago.
They just turned into this appearance in order to protect themselves, or when they had no choice.
There were also many interesting data that made the two doctors' eyes light up as if they had discovered a new world.
For example, the Tailebagos that turned into this crystal was most likely transferred from the extinction period two million years ago to the present.
The opponent's energy response is completely incomparable to the "Zero's Secret Treasure".
There are three possibilities. One is that it is weaker than the Secret Treasure of Zero. Two is that it is still in a weak state. Three is that the Secret Treasure of Zero has gradually become more powerful during the two million years of slumber.
After all, the Tailobagos in the Great Void of Zero was comparable to many legendary elves in their predictions, but this one was not so ideal.
There are also some subtle differences. For example, the Tailebagos called "Secret Treasure of Zero" may be a male individual, while this one is a female individual, whether in terms of the color of the crystal, or the size, appearance and shape.
They had already decided to entrust the crystal to Luo Mu, so the two did not hide any information and directly told Luo Mu all the currently verifiable guesses.
Luo Mu, who listened to the whole thing: (⊙ o⊙)
The crystal is actually Tailebagos?
Staring at the crystal lying quietly in his palm, Luo Mu's expression kept changing and his emotions fluctuated slightly.
In other words, when the prototype time machine was first run, what was transferred out was Tailebagos, which has a close connection with Taijing energy?
However, this Tailebagos seemed to have exhausted its energy and fell asleep.
As for the male and female individuals, it is estimated that their strength may be weaker than the "Secret Treasure of Zero" that has existed for two million years. These things are not too important.
He just kept asking the two doctors whether they were sure they wanted to entrust Tailebagos to him.
Luo Mu never thought that he just came here to complete a mission, but he had already received the exclusive reward for the mission - a Master Ball, and also got unexpected gains.
Although it is not as good as the "Secret Treasure of Zero", it is at least a member of the same family as Tailebagos, the source of Tai crystal. At least the charging of Tai crystal beads and the Tai crystal energy required for growing secret seasonings can be achieved freely!
Falling into a deep sleep is not a big deal. With Victini on the farm, the versatility of infinite energy may be worth looking forward to.
The reason why I say maybe is because Luo Mu tried to let Victini transfer energy to the Iron Warrior, but the other party still showed no signs of waking up, so he is not sure whether it will work on Tailebagos.
Whether infinite energy can be converted into Taijing energy cannot be concluded without experiments.
However, the light energy required for Z moves can be converted into infinite energy.
After thinking about a lot of things in his mind, Luo Mu finally accepted the entrustment of the two doctors with a heavy heart and decided to take good care of this treasure that had traveled through time and space two million years ago.
Seeing that Luo Mu accepted their entrustment, Olin and Futu smiled at each other and made a new proposal while the iron was hot.
"In that case, would you like to join us and go deeper into the Great Zero Hollow?"
"The source of the Taijing energy that spreads throughout the Padiya region, the "Zero Secret Treasure" Taile Bagos is sleeping there."
"Also, unlike the outside world, perhaps due to the change in the concentration of Tai Crystal energy, there is also a very special Tai Crystal form."
"I wonder if you're interested?"
