Chapter 225: Alternative Flying Gym (Two-in-One)
"It's mainly because Swampert taught me well."
Cactusmon was a little embarrassed to be praised by Qingliu.
Seeing its appearance, Qingliu did not continue.
As for the Swampert, it was the one that Kikuno had the "Super Torrent" trait.
Although it was not a match for Machine Tyrannomon, it was undeniable that its own combat power was still very strong, and physical attack and punching were also its forte. In general, Cactusmon made such rapid progress, and it also contributed a lot.
"Ms. Kikuno and the others?"
Qingliu wanted to thank the other party in person.
After recalling for a moment, Cactusmon said: "I don't think I saw it this morning..."
Before he finished speaking, a voice sounded not far away.
"She had something urgent to do, and went to Suzuran Island at midnight last night. You don't need to worry about her, and you can even skip thanking her. If you really want to thank her, just let her retire early."
Qingliu looked over when he heard the voice, and a tall man in a white research suit came over.
"Dr. Yamanashi."
Dr. Yamanashi nodded, his eyes moved from Cactusmon, Tanabata Bluebird, Blue-Eyes Double Explosion Dragon, to Machine Tyrannosaurus, and finally fell on Aoyagi after staring at it for a long time.
"Are you ready to leave?"
"Yes, I have been bothering you for a long time, and there are only two months left before the Lily of the Valley Conference. We must hurry up to collect the remaining seven badges."
Dr. Yamanashi nodded slowly: "That's right, after all, after collecting the badges, you have to go to Lily of the Valley Island to register. Strictly speaking, you have less than two months left, so you really have to hurry up.
"No more extra words, have a good trip."
"Thank you for your care during this time."
Aoyagi bowed slightly and said solemnly.
The others behind him also echoed.
"If you have anything, you can call me directly. The contact information has been stored in the illustrated book."
"I will. "
Qingliu nodded heavily, then turned over and sat on the back of the Blue-Eyes Twin Explosion Dragon.
With the flapping of the huge wings of nearly 20 meters, a whirlwind blew up, and several figures slowly rose into the air.
Dr. Yamanashi watched quietly with an expressionless face. Finally disappeared into the horizon.
Aoki and others not far away were also watching, but compared to Dr. Yamanashi, they were more or less relieved.
"Although it was arranged by King Kikuno, these guys are too greedy. In two months, they ate up the amount of food that the institute assigned to large Pokémon for a year."
The fat researcher next to him hurriedly added: "You only calculated the amount of stockpiling and consumption this year, and you haven't counted the amount of last year and the year before."
Aoki's eyes widened immediately, and he hurriedly asked: "How much did you eat in total?"
The fat researcher adjusted his middle-parted hair, stretched out his fingers to stabilize the glasses on his nose, and said in a heavy tone: "A total of two and a half years... no more, no less. ”
Aoki: “…”
Although it’s a bit impolite, it’s better not to come back.
…
On the other side.
Blue-Eyes Double Explosion Dragon flew below the clouds, Qingliu sat on its back, and its huge figure directly passed over the mountains and fields, galloping towards the distance.
Since he and Pokémon both had formal household registration and were considered legal citizens of the alliance, Qingliu didn’t have to worry too much about whether this problem would be exposed. As long as he wanted to fly, he could just fly.
The only thing to consider is that if Blue-Eyes Double Explosion Dragon is always regarded as a "vehicle", will it have any objections in its heart over time?
After a brief thought, Qingliu decided to seriously consider the candidate for the "vehicle" in the future , it would be best to capture a Pokémon or Digimon that specializes in "transportation tools".
It's OK if it can fly, it doesn't matter if it's fast or not, it's the best if it can run fast and fly, and it would be even better if it can swim and dive.
However, there should be no chance for the time being, and the priority now is something else.
If you want to participate in the Lily of the Valley Conference, you must first collect the badges of the eight gyms certified by the Alliance, and secondly, you must have six Pokémon with a clean origin. Qingliu is still far from both requirements.
"I have four in my hand now, and I don't know when the cunning beast will hatch, so it can't be counted. That means I'm still short of two, and in this case, I need more than two summons to guarantee the minimum."
Qingliu thought for a moment and looked at the map in the illustration book.
"There are few places of interest in the Sinnoh region in the central and western regions. Now the only ones left should be the two places in the north. ”
The Wisdom Lake, where the Lake Gods Uxie live, and the Cutting Edge Temple, where the legendary Pokémon Regigigas, which is said to drag the continent, is sealed underground.
“Both places are in Cutting Edge City, and Cutting Edge City is at the northernmost part of the Sinnoh region, and there is still some distance, and…”
Aoyagi carefully checked the map.
If he wants to go to Cutting Edge City from the Masaga Town where he is now, he needs to go all the way north, and on the way north he will pass through Juqing City, next to Juqing City are Water Pulse City and Black Gold City, and then to the north is EMI City, and finally Cutting Edge City.
“The illustration shows that there are gyms in all five cities, which means that you only need to push all the way through to get five badges and two summoning opportunities… In this way, the two requirements are basically completed. ”
If you are lucky, you may be able to get two Digimon at once.
Thinking of this, Aoyagi immediately said to Blue-Eyes Double Explosion Dragon: “Adjust the direction slightly to the right, and set off…Juqing City!”
……
Zhuqing City.
The most prosperous, advanced and populous city in the Sinnoh region.
The moment Qingliu stepped into the city, a strong sense of familiarity suddenly came over him.
If it weren't for the fact that all kinds of people on the street were carrying all kinds of strange Pokémon, Qingliu would have doubted whether he had returned to the real world.
Especially when he saw the white cube building with the Poké Ball logo in the city center, Qingliu couldn't help but sigh.
"Although the technology tree has been distorted by the existence of Pokémon, even so, Zhuqing City can still beat some second-tier cities in memory."
Just as Qingliu was thinking, a young woman in a professional suit and light makeup walked over quickly in the building opposite, bowed slightly and asked: "Excuse me, do you want to exchange Pokémon? This is a global terminal device, not only Sinnoh, but also any Pokémon in any region can be exchanged."
In short, this is the super-large Pokémon exchange place of the alliance, but he didn't have the idea of exchanging, after all, his Pokémon was a bit "abnormal", and this was not his destination.
"Sorry, I don't have any idea of exchanging for the time being. Also, I want to ask, where is the gym in Zhuqing City?"
Hearing Qingliu's refusal, the uniformed woman did not look too surprised. She nodded very calmly and raised her hand to point to a direction in front of the right.
"Walk about two blocks over there and you will find the Zhuqing Gym."
"Okay, thank you."
Qingliu thanked her seriously and was about to leave, but the other party quickly said again: "Can I ask how many badges you have now?"
Qingliu stared at the other party's eyes silently without speaking.
Seemingly realizing that such words were a bit too private for the two people who had just met, the uniformed woman hurriedly said: "Ah, please don't misunderstand, the main thing is that the gym in Zhuqing City is strange. If you are not very compatible and strong, there is no need to waste time. This is the consensus of most people."
"Strange?"
Qingliu repeated softly.
Three or four years later, when Xiaozhi landed in the Sinnoh region, there was no gym in Zhuqing City, but now it clearly exists in the illustrated book. Qingliu couldn't help but feel curious about this "gym that will not exist for a few years".
After all, there is such a large flow of people in Zhuqing City that it is impossible for a gym to be disqualified because no one is interested in it. Perhaps the reason lies in the "strangeness" mentioned by the other party.
"If it is convenient, please tell me the specific situation."
Seeing Qingliu asking for advice seriously, and this face that can be seen as a handsome man in the future, although he is not very old, Lizi immediately began to impart his experience as a veteran.
"Generally speaking, the gym competition in the Sinnoh region is a three-on-three battle. Whoever can defeat the other three will be the winner, but... it is not like this in the Zhuqing gym.
"The owner of the Zhuqing gym is called Jasmine. She is a gym trainer who focuses on flying type. She only conducts assessments for flying type Pokémon. The gym she founded never conducts direct battles, but sees whose Pokémon flies faster. "
Qingliu raised his eyebrows when he heard this: "Fly faster?"
"Yes, see who flies faster, but it is not as fast as you think. "
Lizi continued: "The battle site is a man-made valley with a very strong airflow in the middle of the valley. Ordinary Pokémon will be blown away by the airflow, not to mention the speed competition. Of course, it is easy to say, but you will know the difficulty when I tell you a number."
Lizi raised two hands, one hand stretched out two fingers, and the other hand made a fist.
"So far this year, no more than 20 trainers have passed her assessment."
The League Conference is held once a year in each region. Now ten months have passed, and only 20 people have passed, which means that only two people have passed on average per month.
With the number of two people and the large flow of people in Zhuqing City, I don't know how many people have been eliminated. The failure rate of the assessment can be said to be 99.999%.
"Is that so..."
Qingliu nodded.
From this point of view, this gym trainer should have something in this unique assessment.
However, it seems that it has nothing to do with me. This strangeness... is not as strange as I thought.
"Thank you very much for your information. Goodbye. "
After Qingliu thanked him, he turned around and left.
When Lizi heard Qingliu's thanks, she nodded with satisfaction.
Lizi felt very satisfied with her act of helping others. She could persuade as many people as possible, especially when the conference was about to start. For "relatively weak" trainers like Qingliu who had not collected all eight badges, they should cherish the limited time.
Even if they only beat some weaker gyms to go to the bottom of the conference, it was better to experience it than not to go in the end.
However, after accepting the other party's thanks, Lizi found that the other party was walking in the direction of the Zhuqing gym that she had just pointed to.
What was he doing?
The stubbornness of a new trainer?
Lizi was full of question marks and hurriedly chased after him.
But what she didn't expect was that the other party looked young, but his movement speed was a bit outrageous, so that she had to take a shortcut to keep up with him.
In a blink of an eye, they had arrived at the entrance of the Zhuqing gym.
Seeing Qingliu walk in, Lizi followed after gritting her teeth.
She had already finished her words, but she couldn't do anything if the other party was stubborn and refused to listen and wanted to waste time and energy. However, she was always generous with her laughter at such a guy who didn't listen to the old man...or the girl.
Qingliu didn't know that Lizi had followed and was full of dissatisfaction with him. Even if he knew, he wouldn't care.
As long as it wasn't an overly weird assessment, the gym wouldn't be too difficult for him now. Except for special circumstances, he was considering training all Pokémon as evenly as possible to ensure that no one's progress would be left behind.
Thinking of this, Qingliu followed the signs and came to the gym hall.
Ding!
As soon as he stepped in, the lights in the venue suddenly lit up, and the white optical fiber illuminated the surrounding area.
Then, a girl with two short braids tied on both sides, wearing casual clothes, and about 13 or 14 years old, about the same age as Qingliu, slowly walked out.
"I thought no one would come recently."
After that, Jasmine looked at Qingliu and asked curiously: "Hey, haven't you heard about the passing rate of my test?"
"I heard about it."
"You dare to come after hearing it?"
Jasmine was surprised: "You don't think those people are bragging, do you? Let me tell you, if you think I'm young and I might be able to pass by luck, I can only advise you not to have this idea, it's impossible."
Qingliu smiled and nodded, and replied: "Don't worry, I will take the gym match seriously, so please show all your strength, Miss Jasmine, and don't use the Pokémon and attitude to deal with ordinary trainers to take the test."
"Psycho!"
Lizi, who had just sneaked into the gym, heard this and couldn't help cursing in her heart.
The difficulty of passing the test is already so terrifying, and you want her to be serious. Is this guy a little mentally ill?
After hearing Qingliu's words, Jasmine's expression became a little serious.
"You mean, let me go all out?"
"Yes."
Moli looked at Qingliu steadily. Looking at the other party's handsome and serious face, she felt that he looked familiar, but suddenly she couldn't remember it, so she nodded and agreed.
"Okay, no problem. Since you took the initiative to ask for it, I will satisfy you."
After that, Moli turned around.
"Come with me."
Qingliu took a step, and Lizi followed quickly.
"What are you thinking? You might have been able to win a game when she was careless. You are just asking for trouble now."
Seeing the other party appear here, Qingliu was a little surprised.
"Ms. Lizi, is it really okay to sneak out during working hours?"
"My father is the boss of the company."
"...Okay."
"You haven't answered my question yet. Even if you really have the strength and confidence, there is no need to let the other party go all out right away."
Lizi asked.
Qing Liu thought for a moment and said slowly: "If that's the case, the gym competition will really be meaningless to me."
I have something to do today, I will try my best to write the third update, early in the morning, late tomorrow morning, please forgive me.
