After the Huntress left, Aoki didn't stay any longer. Now that he had caught the Rock Snake, his main goal of coming to the Ice Mountain was accomplished. Now, returning to the Rocket Team base to retrieve the quest item was Aoki's main goal.
He released the Rock Snake that he had just tamed, and it quickly gave in under the threat of the Dazed Beast.
Although this Rock Snake would be taken to the Hunter's Guild to exchange for a quest, it was still a good idea to use it as a means of transportation. After all, it was the most suitable for this kind of mountain road.
Aoki led the elves and climbed onto the Rock Snake's body, descending the mountain at lightning speed.
The rugged mountain road was no different from flat ground to the Rock Snake.
After descending the mountain, Aoki didn't put the Rock Snake away. He realized that moving like this was much faster than walking by himself. Although it would attract the angry attacks of many elves, Aoki didn't care.
He would just treat it as leveling up for the elves. The girl he saw before had quite an impact on him. He couldn't just stop at what was in front of him. There were still many powerful young trainers.
The Rock Snake rampaged all the way, completely ignoring the smaller trees. It only slightly adjusted its direction for the thicker ones.
Along the way, they passed by many powerful elves' territories. The Rock Snake made quite a bit of noise and was often seen as an active provocation.
The Rock Snake was about to cry. With its personality, it wouldn't have dared to do this, but it couldn't stand the constant threats of an ancestor standing above it. It had no choice but to do this.
It really wanted to tell the angry wild elves that it was forced to do this, so don't attack it.
However, its worries were unnecessary. Although there were some powerful elves that Aoki and the others couldn't deal with, they could still stop them. As long as they made it out of the territory, most of the elves would stop chasing them.
It didn't exclude the fact that there were some that chased them relentlessly. With Da La's ice skill slowing them down, it was possible to shake them off.
The Dark Crows, Dazed Beasts, and Da La that couldn't be shaken off threw all sorts of skills at his face.
Therefore, the attack that the giant rock snake was worried about never landed on him, and he was unimpeded all the way.
Before the sun set, Aoki rode the giant rock snake to the outskirts of the forest. Their speed was more than twice as fast as when they entered.
If it weren't for the increasing number of people, Aoki would have taken the bus directly to Kaji City.
Takeshi Aoki was even considering if he should keep the Giant Rock Snake with him and use it as a means of transportation for a period of time. This was much more convenient than moving on his own.
.....
Having learned his lesson, he changed into ordinary clothes and wore a cap. He lowered his head and walked through the crowd, entering Kaji City.
He could feel that the atmosphere in the city had become more serious. It was as if there was an inexplicable murderous aura permeating the air above the city.
The conflict between the Alliance and the Rocket Team is becoming more and more intense. I should finish the mission as soon as possible. Aoki thought to himself.
Walking into the Little Elf Center of Kaji City, the originally lively place was now a bit deserted. Takeshi Aoki didn't need to wait in line to receive treatment.
He gave the super ball with Da La in it to the Little Elf Center's medical staff. After paying, he asked for help to check Da La's physical condition.
Da La was an elf that he had just tamed in the wild. Although it looked to be in good condition, Aoki wasn't sure if it had any hidden injuries. After all, it didn't receive good treatment in the wild. After it was injured, it could only hide in the cave and lick its wounds silently.
After waiting for ten minutes, Aoki took back the pokeball again.
Knowing that Da La was slightly malnourished, its body was in good condition. Its development was also normal. The medical staff suggested that if Aoki had extra resources, he could give Da La some more nutritious food, such as energy cubes.
Under the care of the medical staff, Aoki also smiled and nodded to show that there was no problem.
He booked a room in the Little Elf Center. With the current situation in Kaji City, Aoki really didn't feel safe staying in a hotel outside.
At night, he took some time to go to the black market in Kaji City. Since Kaji City had the largest Rocket Team base in the Chengdu area, most of the people in the black market in Kaji City were members of the Rocket Team.
In Aoki's previous life, the black market here was the one he was most familiar with. After submitting the quest to the Hunter's Guild, he received a sum of points and a sum of money.
Among them, Aoki temporarily kept the Giant Rock Snake. Since the time limit for this mission was one month, Aoki wasn't in a hurry to complete it. The Giant Rock Snake could still be of some use in Aoki's hands.
The Little Mountain Boar received a total of 150,000 points, while the Light Green Grade Dunjia was exchanged for 500,000 points. In addition to the energy cubes that Aoki made for Little Qian, he received 200,000 Alliance Coins and the 2.4 million Alliance Coins that he originally had.
Aoki now had a total of 3.25 million Alliance Coins on him.
He then made a trip to the grocery store and bought some materials for making Daula's exclusive high-grade energy cubes, as well as some miscellaneous items. He spent a total of 250,000 Alliance Coins.
When he left the black market, Aoki only had 3,000,000 Alliance Coins left.
It might be a huge sum for a commoner, but for someone like Aoki who had six or more elves to nurture, it was just a drop in the bucket.
This was only the money that Aoki spent to buy some materials. If he bought some rare items or skill discs, his wallet would be emptied in an instant.
However, he needed to keep some money on him for emergencies, so he put aside the skill discs for the elves for now. Unless it was absolutely necessary, Aoki still hoped to get the skills that he liked from the Rocket Team's exchange list.
Walking out of the black market, Aoki breathed a sigh of relief. He could clearly feel that the atmosphere in the black market had become somewhat serious. The originally noisy street vendors had all quieted down. Many people wanted to sell their things urgently so that they could purchase items or materials that could quickly increase their strength.
Everyone was not stupid. They more or less had some feelings when walking in the city.
Recently, the number of trainers in the Alliance appearing on the streets had increased. Moreover, there were many unfamiliar faces. It was inevitable that some people would guess something.
Walking on the streets, not many people would talk. Most of them were in a hurry. Even if they talked, they would say a few words and then continue with their own things.
Aoki did not stay outside for long. He returned to the Elf Center. At least it was safe here. Aoki still had the identity of a trainer in the Alliance.
"I'll go get my things tomorrow and leave. The situation is getting a little out of hand." Aoki lay on the bed and prepared to sleep.
