Chapter 28
The Harvest

Natsume arrived at the fields of the Wangwang Valley.

“Woof~”

Houndoom ran over.

Natsume patted Houndoom’s body and said, “Houndoom, have everyone come over, we’re ready to harvest the Wangwang Valley.”

“Woof?”

Houndoom looked at the Wangwang Valley that hadn’t fully matured, slightly puzzled.

But out of trust for Natsume, it still ran off to call the Excadrill and the others who were tilling the land.

Natsume clicked to use the Time Accelerator.

The Wangwang Valley in the field rapidly began to mature.

Soon, a large expanse of golden Wangwang Valley appeared before Natsume.

“Excadrill~”

Excadrill and the Audino had also run over by this time.

The fragrant smell of the Wangwang Valley spread to all around.

Natsume raised his sickle in his hand and said to the Excadrill and the others, “Let's get to work~"

“Excadrill~”

Excadrill was always the most enthusiastic about working in the fields.

As soon as Natsume finished speaking, it excitedly ran into the field to start cutting the ear of rice.

“Serperior?”

After being instructed by Natsume, Serperior always felt that work could be combined with training.

“Serperior?”

Serperior wanted to know how to train while cutting the Wangwang Valley.

“That ah.”

Natsume thought for a moment, then said, “You use your vine whip to wrap around the blades, and then swing the vine whip to cut down the Wangwang Valley.”

“This can train your endurance, control, and precision in using the vine whip.”

“Serperior.”

Serperior indicated that it understood.

It threw out two vine whips, wrapped with two blades and began to cut the ear of rice.

Natsume went aside and used his phone to send a message to Li Xiaohuo.

1000 pounds of Wangwang Valley.

200 pounds of Roll Roll Beans.

200 pounds of Glutinous Mushroom, are you buying them?

Li Xiaohuo replied quickly.

Li Xiaohuo: I will buy all the Wangwang Valley and Roll Roll Beans! But I might not need the Glutinous Mushrooms.

The Dragon-type and Monster-type Pokémon have the highest demand for Glutinous Mushrooms.

While those who can raise these two types of Pokémon aren’t short of money, they’re not many either.

The Snorlax Company has dedicated partners, so there’s no need to harvest extra Glutinous Mushrooms.

But the Wangwang Valley is different.

Because any creature that can run on the ground, whether you’re Flying-type, Fire-type, or Water-type, they basically all eat it.

Processed Wangwang Valley, even humans can eat.

Therefore, there’s a large demand.

“In that case, there’s no need to continue planting more Glutinous Mushrooms.”

“If there are no task rewards, it’s okay for the Glutinous Mushrooms to be self-sufficient.”

Natsume looked at Li Xiaohuo’s message, thinking about the future planting direction of the farm.

The farm will still mainly focus on planting Wangwang Valley for the time being.

【Prompt: You discovered a Radish Stem while harvesting the Wangwang Valley】

A new prompt came from the Farm Story game.

Natsume took a look at his phone.

In Farm Story.

Serperior and the others were steadily pushing forward with the harvesting progress.

Natsume put away his phone.

“Everyone, keep up the good work.”

Natsume returned to the field and said, “After you finish harvesting, everyone gets an extra meal at noon!”

“Arf~”

Soon, the harvest of one acre of Wangwang Valley was completed with everyone’s efforts.

【Farm Task: Harvest 1000 pounds of Wangwang Valley (Completed)】

【Task Reward: Experience Candy that provides a lot of experience*3; Secret Technique—Sandstorm; Attribute Gem Draw Once】

“Audino~”

Audino was exhausted.

The fur on both little rabbits was soaked through with sweat.

Serperior had been swinging its vine whip all the time, so it had also run out of its stamina.

Excadrill and the others were all in good condition.

After all, it was just one acre of land.

The moment of harvest is always exciting.

Natsume taught Excadrill the Secret Technique Sandstorm.

This way, Natsume’s Pokémon had mastered three of the four weather skills.

The Rain Dance of Dragonite, the Sunny Day of Houndoom, and the Sandstorm of Excadrill.

“Serperior, come here.”

Natsume handed the Radish Stem that he extracted from Farm Story to Serperior.

“Serperior, absorb this.”

The Radish Stem allows the holder to gain more energy when using absorption-type moves.

“Serperior~”

Serperior looked at the Radish Stem, then swallowed it bit by bit, like eating a snack.

Serperior instantly felt its body filled with a surge of life energy after absorbing the Radish Stem.

【Prompt: Serperior absorbed the Radish Stem, its level began to rise, 16...17...19...21】

【Prompt: Serperior learned the new skill: Leech Seed, Drain Punch, Razor Leaf】

【Serperior’s Individual Value HP increased to 31】

At the same time, the light of evolution blossomed from Serperior’s body.

“Serp!”

Serperior evolved!

Now, the Serperior that reappeared before Natsume was the evolved Serperior.

【Name: Serperior】

【Attribute: Grass】

【Level: lv21】

【Characteristic: Contrary】

【Individual Value Aptitude: hp (31), Attack (28), Defense (28), Special Attack (31), Special Defense (30), Speed (31)】

【Skill: Tackle, Leer, Vine Whip, Bind, Leech Seed, Drain Punch, Razor Leaf】

【Inheritable Skill: Leaf Storm, Grass Field】

【Potential: Quasi-King】

【Absorption Treasure: Radish Stem】

“Congratulations, Serperior.”

Natsume gestured to Serperior’s height.

“You’ve grown a lot taller.”

The average height of a Serperior is 0.8 meters.

But Natsume’s one was at least 1.2 meters tall, judging by eye.

“Serp~”

The Experience Candy that provides a lot of experience isn’t much help for Dragonite and the others who have already reached level 30.

“Can this Experience Candy be used to make porridge?”

Natsume suddenly had this thought.

“Rotom.”

“Put these three Experience Candies in the porridge and cook them, then divide it up amongst everyone.”

Natsume decided to try it.

“Okay, Rotom~”

Rotom took them.

After instructing Rotom, Natsume looked at Audino and the others who were soaking wet and said, “Let’s go, I’ll give you all a bath first.”

“Audino~”

Audino happily followed Natsume towards the bathroom.
