Although there was a major battle between Pokémon yesterday, fortunately the damage wasn't too great.
"Hiss~"
As the leaves rustled, the round silk spiders all poked their heads out from the shade and called out to Bai Ye.
Compared to the large milk tankers that live on grasslands, this group of sixteen little guys doesn't like bright sunshine and usually chooses darker, damp places as their habitat—such as this lush, leafy mountain orchard, which perfectly meets their requirements.
Here, have a taste first.
Noticing the hopeful gaze of the cat Pokémon at her feet, Bai Ye couldn't help but shake her head with a smile. She then picked a plump orange from a branch and casually tossed it into the cat's small mouth.
If we don't feed this gluttonous catgirl first, she'll start eyeing other things later.
"Meow meow meow~"
A moment later, the task of picking tree fruits was assigned to the well-fed Elegant Meow, the Master Itachi who volunteered to help, and Lucario who blushed for some reason. When he had some free time, Byakuya looked thoughtfully at the group of Silmosas that had woven a tough web in the shade of the forest and were waiting for flying insects to come to them.
In a previous article published in the League Times, some renowned researchers evaluated the silk produced by various Bug-type Pokémon.
Whether considering toughness or tensile strength, the ubiquitous green caterpillar ranks last, while the trap spider family, which mainly inhabits the Padia region, ranks first.
The former is too weak and easily breaks; while the latter's silk threads, shot from its buttocks, are as strong as metal wires and so elastic that they can even deflect the sickle of its natural enemy, the mantis.
In comparison, the Orb-weaver Spider and the Ariados are located upstream. Although they are not as strong as the Trap Spider, their flexibility and toughness are similar. A sufficient amount of spider silk threads are woven together so that even a ten-kilogram rock will not break them.
The quantity and quality of spider silk are also related to environmental temperature, humidity, and the spiders' physical condition.
With this in mind, Bai Ye took out the entry that had dropped from Ariados from the system's inventory.
Similar to how the previous "Abundant Juice" ability increased the milk production of large milk tanks, this "Toughness Enhancement" attribute should also benefit the silk produced by the Orb-weavers.
Chapter 147 Construction and the Power of Waveguides
"System, equip the [Toughness Enhancement] attribute."
Bai Ye gazed at the swarm of silk spiders among the treetops, a thought suddenly occurring to him.
Because he had interacted with the spider woman from Ariados so many times, he no longer needed to be as selective as before. With a wave of his hand, he assigned entries to every single round silk spider.
"Luca~"
Nearby, Lucario was gently tapping the tree trunk with his bone club, causing the ripe fruit to fall. Just as he turned his head, his eyes widened in shock—at the farmer's command, dozens of sharp, blade-like spider silks suddenly attacked them.
A foot of cold light can pierce the clouds; its gleaming cold light suddenly illuminates the sky.
With a crisp "crackling" sound, the pink peaches hanging on the branches were knocked down by the bone stick, causing them to completely disintegrate and shatter in mid-air, scattering across the pre-placed cushioning pads.
"Liss?" "Liss!"

Not only was Lucario startled by the sharp and imposing spider silk, but even the shrews that were the instigators were instinctively flustered, staring at each other with wide eyes.
Bai Ye calmly nodded to himself, casually picking up a piece of peach. He noticed that the cut was as smooth as a mirror, which was enough to show how strong the spider silk emitted by the round silk spiders was.
However, light intensity alone is clearly insufficient.
Since it's not intended for combat, if it were to be sold as a commodity, its ductility and toughness would also need to be tested beforehand.
After a moment's thought, the farmer gathered the scattered spider silk together, and with his fingers flying up and down, he wove the loose spider silk into a large net, which he then hung between two adjacent saplings.
First, place several dozen plump and round oranges on top.
Then gradually accumulate and pile it up.
Finally even
"Meow~"
The elegant cat leaped up, raised its fluffy paw pads, and stomped down hard, only to find that apart from a slight tremor, there was no sign of it about to crack or break.
"The quality is excellent!"
Seeing this, even though he was mentally prepared, Bai Ye couldn't help but marvel at the resilience shown by the spider silk in front of him.
Under normal circumstances, the silk spun by a common round-web spider can only support a weight of no more than ten kilograms.
However, after being enhanced by the [Resilience Enhancement] attribute, and taking into account the weight of the piled-up Orange Fruits and the Elegant Cat, these spider silks remained intact even after being weighed down by an object weighing over forty kilograms. Their load-bearing capacity increased by more than four times, and their sales prospects became visibly broad.
Of course, being a qualified farmer cannot simply rely on the reinforcement of keywords; one must also put in the corresponding actions and efforts.
[Farm Upgrade Task 10: In addition to planting crops, you should also develop as many Pokémon-related agricultural products as possible during your leisurely farm life. Try building rain shelters and silk collection platforms for your spiderlings.]
[Mission Reward: Aura Power (Rainbow)]
[Note: After completing the task, the farm will be upgraded to level three!]
"Aura tracing power?" Hearing the long-absent system mission notification, Bai Ye was stunned for a moment, turning his gaze away from the grove of trees and fruit trees. "It really is like whatever I wish for comes true."
Similar to the spiders of the past, even though they are Pokémon with special abilities, the silk spun by the Orb-weavers is affected by the surrounding environment. If they encounter a rainstorm in the wild, the highly elastic silk will become soft and lose its original elasticity.
Therefore, it is necessary to build a shelter from the rain and collect spider silk in a timely manner.
As for the reward, the complete version of the Aura Force was quite an unexpected bonus.
Suppressing his joyful thoughts, Bai Ye began planning the location of the round silk spider's dwelling place—after traversing the vast mountain orchard, he carefully searched and then chose a gentle slope at the very back.
Whether it's the surrounding layered orchards that provide shade, the towering Tianguan Mountain that provides shelter, or the terrain that doesn't easily accumulate rainwater, all these conditions perfectly suit the shady and heat-averse nature of the round silk spiders.
"Bulu~"
A moment later, the blacksmith carrying the giant steel hammer was also called over by the farmer.
She glanced at the area marked with pebbles, then tilted her head cutely, causing her two pink pigtails to swing in a playful arc.
Now that the location is decided, where can we find the materials to build a shelter from the rain?
"Hmm," Bai Ye looked around, then clapped her hands in confirmation, "Let's dismantle the materials from the old cabin and use them for now."
After all, the original wooden house was left idle and abandoned after moving into the farm villa, so it is perfect to reuse it now.
"Boooooooo~"
Upon hearing the trainer's instructions, the Great Blacksmith was already eager to head towards the abandoned wooden house.
For this Pokémon girl who loves crafts, whether it's wielding a sledgehammer to demolish a house or meticulously repairing it, both are exactly what she desires.
While she was collecting plank materials, Byakuya turned around and began to command the other Pokémon.
Building a rain shelter requires everyone's efforts.
"Long-eared Rabbit, please use the Dig move." "Chirp chirp~"
After a soft, delicate moan, the earthen dragon meandered, and soil splattered everywhere, creating a perfectly sized trench just as the trainer had requested.
Large, intricate pebbles were laid on top and compacted to form a thick, hard stone base.
As Milotic's [Water Cannon] blasted out mixed with the clay, large slurries of mud were stirred up and spread outwards. Before long, Sneasel's [Ice Wind] swept outwards and cooled the clay instantly.
Once the foundation was completed, the blacksmith, covered in dust from smashing the wooden house with a single blow, arrived carrying materials.
In an instant, the giant hammer rose and fell, and the sound of "bang bang bang" could not be heard.
A wooden roof that shelters from the wind and rain, specially designed ventilation openings, and tree bark hanging inside for temporary resting.
Although it was a bit rudimentary, it unexpectedly suited the tastes of these orb-weaver spiders that originally lived in the wild.
"Hiss~"

[Farm Upgrade Task 10 Completed: Build a Rain Shelter and a Spider Silk Collection Platform]
[Mission Reward: Aura Power (Rainbow)]
The farm level has been upgraded to level three, allowing you to equip eight different affixes simultaneously for your host or farm sprite.
[Note: To continue advancing your farm level, you need to complete fifteen upgrade tasks.]
In an instant, as the system notification sounded, Bai Ye, who was still looking at the small wooden house where he was sheltering from the rain with satisfaction, frowned and felt a warm current suddenly surge into his body.
Unlike the unremarkable acquisition of incomplete superpowers before, the fully realized Aura Power is obviously much more significant.
"Luca~"
Lucario swallowed hard.
No, no, how come the trainers have become even more attractive than before?!
Chapter 148 The Correct Way to Use Waveguides
Unlike many psychic dojos that have unique training methods and regularly recruit psychic apprentices with varying talents, the transmission and application of Aura power has experienced a long period of cultural discontinuity.
Even in the League's historical records, the number of trainers who have been given the title of Aura Master is less than ten.
The most recent instance was when Aaron, the Aura Warrior, used the "Tree of the Beginning of the World" hundreds of years ago to stop the world's conflicts, which shows how rare and precious it is.
Wanting to test the power of the complete version of the waveguide, the farmer settled all the spiders in the yard and then found a large tree to begin his experiment.
"Click—" The seven-year-old affairs of the deceased wife's father -
After a short while, Bai Ye looked at the scene before him and was quite satisfied.
With a sonic boom, the force of his punch broke a tree trunk that would have taken several people to encircle.
Already possessing certain attributes, their physical strength has now been further enhanced.
I have to say, the feeling of becoming stronger is just too awesome!
Besides the leap in his physical abilities, he also vaguely sensed another effect of the power of waveguide.
Following the faint, almost imperceptible sensation in the air, Bai Ye gently closed her eyes.
In an instant, he keenly spotted several soft white energy orbs—one from Milotic by the pool, another from Celebi watering the garden flowers with a handful of clear water, and yet another from Lucario patiently waiting beside him.
"Is this a waveguide?"
Bai Ye nodded to himself thoughtfully.
With his aura sensing ability, he can accurately determine the location of Pokémon and understand the timing of their moves, which will undoubtedly greatly enhance his command capabilities.
only
He's great in every way, but he just can't pull off the coolest move, [亿旗:拔斯齐肆伍鹨裙波弹弹], by hand!
At this moment, Bai Ye gathered his hands together in front of his chest to form a circle. He had just mobilized the wave guide power in his body when, like a car starting to move and being slammed on the gas pedal, the excessively powerful energy scattered like birds and beasts before it could be fully gathered.
Lucario, now in its feminized form, blinked its beautiful eyes slightly.
Compared to trainers who have just acquired Aura powers, this blue-haired wolfhound girl is clearly much more experienced.
Under normal circumstances, waveguide power can be used in three ways.
Exploration, attack, and relocation/recovery.
The former is easy to understand. Since all things possess the property of waveguides, people with this ability can easily perceive the emotions of trainers and Pokémon from a distance, or detect the surrounding environment while ignoring various obstacles.
As for the latter two—whether it's manually crafting a wave missile or transferring the waveguide to other creatures to restore and increase a Pokémon's HP—[the rest of the text is incomplete and likely refers to a separate topic:]
Even with exceptional talent, users still need to undergo specialized practice; otherwise, they are prone to failure and backlash.
Thinking of this, Lucario also adopted a serious stance, and without saying a word, her fair hands gently seated the trainer on the ground.
"Master, we shouldn't mobilize so much waveguide energy at the beginning."
"Close your eyes first. I...I'll try to guide you. Pay attention and feel it carefully~"
At the insistence of this wolf-dog-like girl, Bai Ye obediently sat down and closed his eyes again as instructed.
Due to waveguide induction, the voices of both parties can be transmitted through the sea of waveguides without needing to speak.
"Hmm... Master, you have too much aura energy. Now you need to concentrate and try to gradually gather your body's aura energy here along this one-way circuit."
Above the vast blue ocean of waveguides, Bai Ye could clearly see his own waveguide energy.
Unlike Lucario's scattered orbs of light, this one was like a surging river, easily bursting out of the body if one wasn't careful.
However, since it was a color-level aura power, under Lucario's special guidance, after enduring the pain of the aura washing over his body, Byakuya quickly mastered how to control the aura energy.
"Alright, that's it, all done!"
Noticing that the trainer's aura was gradually becoming tangible, the wolfhound girl's tone became much more cheerful and lighthearted.
She paused, as if remembering something, then resumed her serious demeanor. "But be careful, Master. Although you have many waveguides, it's best not to use them excessively, especially not to pass them on to others indiscriminately."
"Yeah, I understand."
Bai Ye nodded slightly. He was naturally aware of the method of using waveguide transfer to restore the opponent's life force.
