Chen Yue had no parents and grew up in an orphanage when he urinated.

The word "home" was very strange to him.

After struggling in society for many years, I realized the ability to speak people and talk nonsense when I see ghosts.

In the past, Chen Yue always scoffed at those remarks such as "nearby feelings and timidity".

But at this moment, he deeply felt what it means to be close to homesickness.

In the past two years since he was away, does Shirona and grandma still remember him?

Chen Yue's hand stopped the moment he was about to knock on the door.

Something suddenly happened to his mind.

——He is no longer the child who looks only four years old.

Just as Chen Yue stood outside the door and was wandering, the old wooden door was opened from the inside.

An old man with gray hair but very energetic old man walked out.

After seeing Chen Yue, she was stunned for a few seconds, then frowned and said incredibly: "Xiao Yue? Is it you?"

Chen Yue opened his mouth and asked, "Do you still recognize me?"

Grandma looked at Chen Yue carefully from top to bottom and said:

"You are still as beautiful as you were when you were a child. Zhulan told me about you. No matter what, it would be great if you could come back!"

As she said that, she looked behind Chen Yue and asked, "Where are Kuailongs and the others? Haven't they come back with you?"

Chen Yue immediately released several elves from the elves ball and said, "It's all here. In addition to the fast dragons and the others, I also conquered a new companion during this trip."

Needless to say, grandma's eyes also saw the single-shoulong beside her. She held the reading glasses on her eyes and said with a gentle expression: "Welcome, little guy!"

He looked up and said to Chen Yue: "You can take these little guys into the yard to rest for a while, and I'll go to the town to buy something."

Only then did Chen Yue notice that grandma was carrying a cloth bag in her hand. Only then did he realize that it was five o'clock in the evening that grandma would go out to buy udon noodles.

He decisively asked Kuailong, Lucario and Mischief to call Danshoulong to play in the yard, and then he followed his grandmother to a friendly store.

Grandma did not refuse, a kind smile appeared on her face and asked, "How long can I stay here this time?"

Chen Yue took a look at the task panel and there was no label on it for limiting time, but it shouldn't be short.

He thought for a while and replied, "It's about a year or so!"

"A year..." Grandma frowned and said, "Will you come back after that?"

"Yes." Chen Yue said, after all, this is his exclusive world. If nothing unexpected happens, future copies will be carried out in this world.

"That's good." Grandma said softly.

After buying the ingredients needed for supper, the two went home directly.

Looking at the empty room on the second floor, Chen Yue ran to the kitchen and asked, "Grandma, where is Sirona?"

Grandma is kneading the dough. She is in a good mood today and is preparing to bake some sweet cakes for Chen Yue to use as snacks:

"She, you should be traveling in other areas now, right? That girl is too busy and hasn't called me, the old man, for three days!"

Traveling...

Chen Yue felt a little regretful. It seemed that he might not be able to see Xirona this time.

He could only stay here for one night and would have to return to Yuanzhu area early tomorrow morning to continue his main task.

But if you can't see it, you can't see it, and there will be no chance in the future.

Chen Yue thought, and returned to the living room.

Soon, a hearty dinner was ready.

Grandma and Lucario walked out of the kitchen with udon full of fish ball ingredients, one after another.

She put one of the bowls in front of Chen Yue and said distressedly: "Eat more, you will lose weight. You must have been exhausted in the past two years outside, right?"

...

After dinner, Chen Yue returned to the room he had lived in before.

Compared to when he left, the layout inside had not changed much. The room was cleaned up very clean, and it can be seen that someone was cleaning the room regularly.

With a fresh and sunny smell on the bedding, Chen Yue lay down relaxed.

The single-headed dragon mystery lay on both sides of him, while Lucario and Kuailong lay on the floor that grandma had prepared for them.

The quiet and peaceful atmosphere flowed in the room. Feeling all this, Chen Yue instantly had the motivation to continue working hard.

——Save enough points early, and he can come to this world early to live a retirement life.

The next morning, after breakfast, Chen Yue said goodbye to his grandmother and teleported back to the hotel room through the teleportation landmark.

Although I don’t know how Sirona explained to her grandma, no matter what, things are moving towards the better.

——Except that he did not see Hirona.

Shirona, who was traveling outside, did not bring her cell phone. She called her home through the video phone of the Elf Center.

According to grandma, the last time she called back was three days ago.

At that time, she was in the Carlos area. Chen Yue had not unlocked the map of the Carlos area yet, so he could not go directly through teleportation.

The moment he returned to the hotel, Chen Yue received a prompt for the task update.

[Task updated!]

[Task objective: Follow the tour guide and visit the charred tower!]

Chen Yue opened the door and arrived at the meeting place left by Fang Ping yesterday.

Soon, the other players also left the room one after another.

Fang Ping glanced at everyone, his eyes stayed on Chen Yue for a moment, and then continued:

“The location we visited today is Charred Tower!”

Charred tower, also known as the tower of the clock.

Located on the west side of Yuanzhu City, it stands opposite the bell tower on the east side. It is rumored that Pokémon, known as the sea god, was once inhabited there.

"However, 150 years ago, a lightning bolt from the sky hit the bell tower, making this magnificent tower instantly turn into a sea of ​​fire."

"The fire burned for three days and three nights, and the last heavy rain put out the flames. However, at this time the tower was burned to a charred ruin."

"There were three unknown Pokémons burned to death in that fire, and the Phoenix King descended from the sky and resurrected them. The three Pokémons were called Water Lord, Yan Emperor and Thunder Lord by later generations."

Fang Ping stood in front of the charred tower and explained the history of this tower to many players conscientiously.

Watching information about the charred tower from a webpage without pictures is two completely different feelings about listening to the tour guide telling this history in front of the charred tower.

Although the players participating in this dungeon are well aware of this history, they still listen to it.

But at this moment, a passerby's scream came from a distance:

"Look, what is that?!"

Everyone raised their heads in the direction of his fingers, and then they saw a huge body, like a lion, with orange-red hair on their body.
Chapter completed!
