Chapter 172 Miss Mary Wants to Reflect...

"Expedition~Expedition~" Yurika strode forward humming an unknown song, and Mary followed her silently, observing the Pokémon in the research institute.

After all, most of the Pokémon in the research institute are used to assist Pokémon research, so they are not specially bred for combat. Only a small number of them are stored here by other trainers, but they are all in good condition and look very healthy .

"Mari Marli, are you and Xiaozhi also good friends?" Yurika asked while humming.

"No, not even friends." Mary replied lightly.

"What about Serena?" Yurika asked curiously again.

"..."

"Not a friend either?" Yurika looked back at Mary in surprise.

"It's acquaintance." Mary replied calmly, and then added: "However, we must first analyze what can be regarded as friends..."

"Yourika is not good at this kind of analysis, so I should let my brother do it..." Before Mali could finish speaking, Yourika nodded her head in distress, "But my brother can only study robots..."

Mary didn't answer.

After a while, Yurika asked again, "Eh? Mali Mali, do you have any friends?"

"..." Ma Li sighed lightly, she didn't like to talk too much, but as a child under ten years old, Yurika didn't care too much, so she replied: "There is one. "

"Who is so and so? Is it the lovely Yurika?" Yurika's eyes lit up, and she immediately grinned and asked happily.

"...Xu Qiansu." Ma Li didn't want to admit it, but she whispered with her lips murmured for a while.

"Ah? Perverted big brother?" Yurika nodded her chin and tilted her head.

"Although he has always been a cheeky, sweet-talking and narcissistic person, he has never backed down on some principled issues, so let's just say... isn't he a pervert?" Ma Li raised her eyebrows slightly, Xu Qiansu retorted.

"Why do you use interrogative sentences? Aren't you friends? And Yurika feels that Ma Li has a big opinion of him..." Yourika opened her eyes wide, her face full of confusion.

"Although opinions are great, they are still friends." Mary replied calmly.

"This sentence is so handsome~" Yurika's eyes lit up, and she said, "Marie, can Yourika be your friend?"

Mary sighed again, then nodded lightly, rubbing the center of her brows, she was not good at dealing with Yurika who was too vigorous.

"Hehehe, Yurika is also Mary's friend. Even if Yurika has many shortcomings, Mali will treat Yurika as a friend~ Kadang friend~"

Yurika grinned, walked briskly, shook the wooden stick in her hand, and hummed an unknown song, "Even if there are many shortcomings, they are still friends~ This is a friend~ Just like Yurika and Dongdongshu, just like you Like Yurika and Xiaoruan~"

The research institute covers a large area, and there is a dense forest in the north for flying-type, insect-type and other Pokémon to live in.

The two women walked briskly, but they reached the inside of the forest in a short while.

"Where is croaking frog ~ croaking frog~" You Lijia waved the wooden stick and shouted loudly.

Obviously the croaking frog usually exercises in this forest.

Mary looked around at the slightly quiet environment, frowned slightly, and subconsciously reached into her satchel to hold the poke ball, but remembered that she had let Morube and the others go to play.

But inside the research institute... what could happen?

After Yurika's words fell, within a moment, there was a light sound of something swiftly passing by.

Mary subconsciously grabbed Yurika's wrist, her expression a little wary.

Yourika tilted her head slightly, raised her face to look at Mali in puzzlement, and said, "Yourika always comes to the institute to play, the children here are very gentle, Mali doesn't have to be like that..."

Before the words fell, the ear-piercing sound of water flowing through the air resounded.

Mary looked over after hearing the sound, but saw a group of highly compressed water polo shooting toward the two from a tree crown.

Waves of water!

Ma Lidai raised her eyebrows slightly, but she was already prepared, she grabbed Yourika and took a few steps back.

Before meeting Xu Qiansu, she traveled alone for half a year. No matter what, she would never let go of the most basic vigilance.

boom!

The wave of water slammed into the ground which was only a few steps away from Mary, and the land disintegrated instantly, gravel flew, water splashed, and a pothole with water stains appeared on the spot.

Mary took a look at the pothole, and judged from the scale that this Pokémon's strength was not bad.

"Eh... eh? Quack, quack frog?" Yurika was obviously frightened by this abnormality, her lips turned pale.

Ma Li put Yourika down and turned her head to look, only to see a croaking frog standing on a branch, panting constantly, with hideous pain in its eyes, and a blue-white halo flashing from time to time all over its body.

"This is...evolution?" Mary muttered to herself.

"Evolution? The croaking frog is going to evolve!? But why did it hurt us!?" Yurika broke free from Ma Li's hand, took a few steps forward, opened her hands, and stood in front of Ma Li, glaring. A croaking frog on a tree trunk, "Quacking a frog!"

The croaking frog jumped up and stood behind Yourika, but it didn't even look at Yourika, but stared straight at Ma Li with its cloudy eyes, its extremely huge hostility was unequivocal. poured out covertly.

Marie frowned slightly, and she understood the reason when she thought about it... This croaking frog was on the edge of evolution, but for some reason, it was unwilling to evolve, and it exhausted all its energy to suppress it, causing it to become insane... And then So there is such a big hostility... is it to protect Yurika?

Its previous attack was aimed at Mary.

With its sanity at the moment, it is impossible to tell whether Mali is hostile to Yurika... It's just the vigilance of the biological instinct that made it make such a choice.

In other words, the croaking frog at this moment is like a lioness protecting its cubs, just attacking all creatures close to Yurika.

But why does it suppress evolutionary instinct?

Regardless of the reason, but from this point of view, Yurika really likes Pokémon...

Her mind was spinning, but Mary did not relax at all, staring at the croaking frog.

Mary's physical fitness is not very good, but she is barely stronger than the average person because of her frequent travels... It is absolutely impossible to be the enemy of Pokémon.

Facing the confused croaking frog at this moment, if one is not careful... Even if he can't die, he will be seriously injured.

And if you just run away like this... With Mali's physical fitness, how could she outrun the Quacking Frog.

Morubek, pickpocket cat, and Ibrahimovic are not around... I can only save myself.

She glanced around a few times, slowly stretched out her hand, and reached for the wooden stick thrown by Yurika on the ground.

The moment Mary's white and tender hands grasped the wooden stick, the croaking frog opened his hands suddenly, and a light like a long knife emerged on his hands, and a severe chill spread over them.

Juhe cut!

"No way!" You Lijia's immature face turned pale, and she quickly threw herself on the croaking frog, but was pushed by the croaking frog and fell to the ground.

But it also delayed Quacking Frog for a little while. Marie's eyesight as a trainer allowed her to judge the speed, strength and even the attack direction of Cackling Frog's Juhe Slash in an instant.

I saw Marie leaning down suddenly, and in the next second, Ju He Zhan brushed her hair.

Mary's pretty face remained unchanged, without hesitation, her body turned slightly, and the wooden stick in her hand stretched forward, poking straight at the soft belly of the croaking frog.

"Puff!" The stinging pain made the croaking frog wake up a little bit, and with this sane mind, it canceled the Iai chop, but the pain also aroused its ferocity as a Pokémon, and its mind became confused again.

It was in mid-air, with its hands folded back, and countless water lights emerged from it, which wanted to give Mary a wave of water at a near zero distance.

Without hesitation, Mary poked the wooden stick into the unformed water wave, and the wooden stick was instantly smashed to pieces, but there was a loud 'bang', and countless sprays exploded.

Mary hurriedly raised her forearm to block her body, but she was still shocked by the impact and took a few steps back, hitting a tree behind her.

"Cough, cough———" Mary coughed a few times in pain, and her hands ached from the aftermath of the water waves.

But she didn't feel well, and the croaking frog naturally didn't feel too well.

But it was a Pokémon after all, so he took a breath and looked at Marie again.

"Quacking Frog!!!" Yourika got up from the ground, her immature face was full of guilt and anger, she didn't care about her own safety at all, she wrapped her arms around the Cacking Frog and dragged it tightly.

The blue-white halo kept dancing on the croaking frog, but it was still staring at Mary.

This time it didn't regain its sanity at all.

Mary held her hand that was trembling slightly due to the shock force, and also stared closely at the croaking frog.

Because she was in the research institute, she put down her guard, and didn't bring a Pokémon with her... It was her problem.

... She will not make this kind of mistake again in the future.

But the most urgent task is not self-reflection, but self-help.

She looked around in the forest out of the corner of her eye, but didn't see any traces of the other Pokémon...

Mary pursed her soft cherry lips... I could only... find a way to contact Xu Qiansu.

But at this moment, as long as she acts rashly, the Quacking Bubble Frog will definitely attack without hesitation.

Mary moved lightly, leaning against the tree with her back, and slowly opened the distance from the croaking frog. At the same time, she slowly reached into her satchel, trying to take out her mobile phone.

But she only made a slight move, and the croaking frog shook Yourika away, causing Yourika to roll on the ground several times, with some scratches on her body.

Ma Lidai raised her eyebrows slightly, and when she saw this, she took out her mobile phone without any hesitation, and just dialed Xu Qiansu's number... However, she might be injured.

Mary secretly reflected in her heart that the accident this time was all because she lacked the necessary precautions.

The blade-like sharp light once again appeared in the hands of the croaking bubble frog.

Just when Ma Li was about to get hurt and contact Xu Qiansu, she heard a thunderous dragon cry from a distance.

The croaking frog was startled for a moment, its remaining instinct made it turn its head to look, but saw a glazed dragon-shaped beam of light tearing apart many trees, plowing across the ground, and suddenly swept towards it.

With a dazed kung fu, the croaking frog suddenly submerged it like a tidal wave with an extremely thick glazed beam of light, and then blasted to the edge of the forest unabated. Immediately there was only a shocking explosion, attracting all the treasures in the backyard. Pokémon and people's sights.

"Morubei?" Morubeike was startled for a moment, and then he suddenly fell down and ran towards Mali.

The pickpocket cat who was taking care of Ibrahimovic straightened up and looked up, only to find that Xu Qiansu and Ma Li had disappeared.

Her little devil-like tail suddenly tightened, even Ibrahimovic didn't care about it, her limbs slightly bent, and she rushed towards the explosion.

Ibrahimovic tilted his head in confusion, and immediately left behind his new friend and hurried over.

Kirulian, who was learning 'protection', also sensed something was wrong, and disappeared in place with a teleportation.

...

Looking at the deep ravine in front of her eyes, Ma Li paused slightly with her mobile phone hand, and froze on the spot.

"Are you hurt?" Xu Qiansu's voice came from beside her ear, which brought her back to her senses.

Ma Li turned her head to look, and Xu Qiansu's forehead was covered with fine beads of sweat, and she couldn't help panting, obviously coming here in a hurry.

The little marsupial stood at his footsteps, touching its own little skull cap with some fear.

"Mary, Mary..." Yurika was also taken aback, and immediately got up and hugged Mary, and couldn't help crying, "I, I didn't know that the croaking frog would suddenly go crazy..."

"It's not crazy...it just wants to protect you." Ma Liying frowned for a while, then whispered, then looked at Xu Qiansu, and shook her head slightly, indicating that she was fine.

Xu Qiansu took a look at Ma Li's trembling red hands, didn't say much, but turned her head to look in the direction of the gully.

The bluish-white spot of light in the croaking frog's body became brighter and brighter, almost covering up the injuries it suffered from the dragon's wave.

Its expression is obviously painful, and it is obvious that it is almost unable to suppress the evolution.

But it still insists on not evolving.

"Crack!" It slammed its head on the ground, and the pained look improved a little.

"Because it desperately suppressed the evolutionary impulse, it got a little out of control..." Mary looked at the croaking frog again, and explained softly: "It's better to make sure it loses its fighting ability first, and then send it to the doctor for treatment... "

The croaking frog once again cast its gaze on Ma Li, who is the closest to Yourika, with an extremely hostile expression... It seems that Miss Ma Li guessed correctly, this croaking frog has lost its mind.

Xu Qiansu nodded slightly, took a step forward, and stood in front of Ma Li.

"You like fighting very much?" Xu Qiansu glanced at the croaking frog, with a faint smile on his calm face.

Before the croaking frog could answer, Xu Qiansu sneered and said, "I'll accompany you."

"Little guy..." Xu Qiansu knelt down and scratched the little marsupial's chin. Just when the little marsupial thought Xu Qiansu was going to let him go on the stage to deal with this stupid frog that lost his mind, Xu Qiansu took her bone stick.

"Karuka!?" The little marsupial looked up at Xu Qiansu in disbelief.

The bone stick that is suitable for the little marsupial, in the hands of Xu Qiansu, looks like a pure white bone dagger, which is inexplicably very handy.

But Xu Qiansu had no intention of explaining. He straightened up, danced a sword with a bone stick, stepped forward, and glanced coldly at the croaking frog.

"bring it on."

Xu Qiansu loves Pokémon so much that in order to protect the Pokémon in the underground lake, he refuses to disclose the lake water that contains the power of life, but for him, these things have primary and secondary importance.

Since the ultimate goal is to make this croaking frog incapable of fighting, he never minds doing it himself.
