Chapter 570 Want to escape, but destined to settle
May 8, Saturday.
A gentle drizzle floated in the sky, causing ripples on the sea surface.
Lu Ye stood on the deck, his black hair blowing in the sea breeze, and the hem of his shirt blowing to both sides.
"Ahead is Asakusa City in the Johto area."
Lu Ye raised his head and looked at Gengar floating beside him, pointing to the far end: "Here, that is the lighthouse of Asakusa City."
"Kou Jie!" Geng Gui opened his eyelids with both hands and looked towards the coastline hazy in the drizzle.
The stone lighthouse stood in the drizzle, its beams of light circling back and forth. An electric dragon poked its head from the observation deck and waved in the direction of the cruise ship.
There was a burst of good-natured laughter from the tourists on the deck, and Lu Ye secretly thought: "That should be Ami's 'Guang'er'."
Asakusa City is the jurisdiction of Steel Gym Leader Ami, and it is also the largest port in the Johto region.
Her electric dragon named "Guang'er" is responsible for the lighting task of the lighthouse.
Ma Zhishi's "Flower" also often departs from here, patrolling Sinnoh, Hoenn, Kanto and other places.
However, this time, Teacher Lu was not riding the "Flower".
It was a passenger ship that I boarded based on Dr. Ohki's old VIP-class ticket.
After all, this trip is to help Dr. Omu run errands, and the labor expenses must be reimbursed.
It was just after the May Day holiday, and there were not many passengers. Lu Ye stood on the deck and blew the wind for a while, and the whole body of Gengar next to him started to vibrate.
Buzz, buzz, buzz
"Kou Jie?" Gengar scratched his head, took out a purple special edition illustrated book with a contact function, and pressed the virtual projection.
Blue light formed a screen in the sky, and the boy wearing a peaked cap said carelessly:
"Hey, Teacher Lu, where are you?"
The young man's eyes widened and he leaned in front of the screen with his whole face: "How come it was Gengar who answered the phone!"
"Kou Jie~" Geng Gui grinned, stretched out his tongue and licked the light, and the screen suddenly shook.
"Ahem, my illustrated books are usually kept by Gengar."
Lu Ye took the illustrated book and looked up at the front: "We are almost at Asakusa City."
"So fast!" Ah Jin exclaimed, "We'll set off right away!"
Lu Ye raised his eyebrows: "Don't tell me, you are still staying at home and not going out?"
"Haha, how is that possible!" Actually, I stayed up all night playing "Pokemon" last night and forgot that I had to go on a long trip this morning.
Ah Jin smiled shamefully: "Then see you in Platycodon City, Teacher Lu!"
He quickly hung up the contact, leaving Teacher Lu in a complicated mood.
I always feel like staying with this guy who wants to die...will cause big problems!
"That's better than teaming up with Xiaozhi." Lu Ye comforted himself.
Otherwise, it is possible for a counterattack Mewtwo to pop up suddenly!
Without the physique of a super newbie, for such a big plot, you still have to be more cautious...
This is why the "Hero of the Rainbow", a man of great wisdom and courage, came to the Johto area to seek protection from the Phoenix King.
A refreshing breeze mixed with raindrops came towards him, and Lu Ye saw the innocent Swamp King standing on the beach.
A Slowpoke was fishing with its tail. It turned its head slowly, and a question mark appeared on its head: "Yeah?"
Teacher Lu suddenly felt his mood improved and said cheerfully:
"It's not a big problem, just treat it as a trip to the city!"
The elf balls at his waist began to shake, and Lu Ye shouted:
"Let's set off, target the Slow Beast Tail, Tonglin Forest's specialty green onions!"
"Koujie~(??`▽????)??"
“Yoji~(??﹃??)”
"Gah! (????????)σ"
**
In the Sinnoh region, Xiaozhi is practicing.
"Flame Monkey, use Flash Charge!"
In an instant, the Flame Monkey's eyes blazed with flames, a heat wave rose up from its back, and it roared towards an imperial Bona.
The king-like penguin crossed his steel arms to resist, but was still knocked several meters away.
"I gave up." The passerby trainer said regretfully, taking the circle-eyed Emperor Bona back into his Poké Ball.
"Well done, Flame Monkey!" Xiaozhi laughed and hugged the Flame Monkey.
The passerby trainer smiled and suddenly said: "By the way, since you are so strong, how about going to Midina to participate in the battle celebration?"
"Battle celebration?" Xiaozhi scratched his head in confusion, "What is that."
"It is a celebration held to commemorate Arceus who turned this place into a fertile land hundreds of years ago."
The passerby trainer smiled and said: "There is another legend. It is said that a messenger carrying a thunder and lightning monster saved this land."
"Therefore, the trainer who wins the celebration will be awarded the title of 'Herald of Warcraft'."
He looked at Pikachu on Xiaozhi's shoulder and said to Xiaozhi: "You and Pikachu have great potential to become "Warcraft Messengers"!"
Ash and Pikachu looked at each other, clenched their fists and said, "Okay, our next goal is to go to Midina!"
"Pikachu!" Pikachu shook his ears.
If Teacher Lu witnessed this scene, he would definitely scream that he was deceived.
It's you, the opening song of the theatrical version, the invincible God of War Ash!
Could this be "No one can beat me in my BGM?" (Except for the Ninja Execution Song)
The clear stream winds towards the small town in the distance, a rich and lush land surrounded by greenery, Midina.
The town is decorated with lights and colorful decorations, the terrain presents a geometric upward architectural style, and a majestic palace stands at the highest point.
That is the temple dedicated to Arceus.
Absol, known as the 'disaster beast', stared at the temple quietly with his eyes, and the light flowed, reflecting the back of Xiaozhi in the distance.
According to legend, Absol has the ability to "predict disasters" and will appear whenever disaster strikes, so he is also regarded as a symbol of ominousness.
It had an indifferent expression, looking up at the temple and then into the distant direction of the sky.
Absol sensed the approaching disaster, but felt a strong sense of stability.
It shook its head in confusion, and then disappeared deep into the forest.
**
Johto area, Kikyo City.
The ancient city is surrounded by lush greenery, and the buildings present antique connotations. In the distance is the Trumpet Bud Tower, which symbolizes Buddhist culture.
Lu Ye drank hot tea as the Romans did, staring silently at the red-haired boy in front of him. The red-haired boy also sat upright and remained silent.
"Where's Ah Jin?" Teacher Lu finally asked helplessly.
"The Tower of Trumpet Buds." Xiao Yinxi said the words like gold.
"Where is he going and what is he doing?" Lu Ye asked curiously.
Xiaoyin was silent for a long time, then said with a sullen face: "Today, the geisha from Enzhu City came to Platycodon City for a tour performance."
Lu Ye: "..."
I thought Teacher Lu would be angry, but unexpectedly, he stood up silently and walked towards the door.
"What do you want to do?" Xiao Yin was startled.
Lu Ye: "I also want to watch geisha dance."
Xiaoyin:???
**
The gym leader of Platycodon City is Asu, and his secondary occupations are bird master and alliance prosecutor.
He was wearing a cardigan at the moment and looked at the boy in the cap next to him speechlessly.
"Oh, geisha is so awesome!"
Ah Jin held his cheek in his hands and said with love in his eyes.
"Boko!" Bokotaro next to him also had a lewd expression.
The quintuplet sisters, dressed in kimonos and wearing hairpins, danced gracefully with fans in hand, and five Ievee with different attributes also matched their dancing postures.
"Xiaojuan, Xiaomei, Xiaotao, Yinghua... everyone is so cute!" Ah Jin crossed his arms and commented: "Yeah... but my favorite is indeed Xiaoyu!"
"...You can actually remember these names." Asu said speechlessly: "Don't these quintuplets all look the same!"
"Idiot, you can tell just by looking at Ibrahimovic's attributes. You are simply a fake fan!" Ajin said with a sidelong glance.
Asu was stunned and sighed: "Kagura dance is for praying to the gods and offering sacrifices. If you are disrespectful, you may be punished by the gods!"
Ah Jin wiped his nose: "Hmph, it's not like I haven't seen the one in the Bell Tower before, it's just a big-billed bird that can shine!"
Asu: "..."
It sounds a bit blasphemous to say it, but Asu somehow feels that this kid really has a unique talent.
With hatching eggs as his ability...it's really a bit unfair to him.
"This is Dr. Omu's ability to select illustration holders." Asu pondered.
At the end of the dance, he asked Akin: "Do you know who the other illustrated holder who came to the Johto area recently was mentioned by Dr. Omu?"
"Of course." Ah Jin chuckled, "It's Teacher Lu!"
Teacher Lu...A Su was suddenly startled.
The legendary trainer who saved the Sinnoh region many times and has many championship deeds and anecdotes.
The wooden door behind him was suddenly pushed open, and they both turned around at the same time. A Jin grinned and said:
"Well, this is Teacher Lu!"
Ah Su was startled for a moment, then suddenly came back to his senses, stood up and said respectfully: "I am the gym leader of Platycodon City, an expert in flying, Ah Su. I am honored to meet you, Teacher Lu."
"Where is it?"
Lu Ye also followed the polite words and unknowingly sat down to watch the dance of the quintuplets.
"Is it over already?" Lu Ye asked.
"Yeah, you're late." A Jin said.
"It would be better if someone let me go." Lu Ye said with a smile.
Ah Jin's hair stood on end as he carefully turned his head to look at Teacher Lu. His phone suddenly vibrated.
Looking down, Ah Jin took a deep breath and said miserably: "I have just been released from the dark room!"
[Group member ‘Ajin’ was banned for 24 hours by the group leader ‘Teacher Lu’! 】
A'Du was surprised and said: "Oh, is it the group leader's turn to ban today?"
Xiao Huang said weakly: "It's too tragic, Ah Jin..."
Kona smiled with satisfaction and said, "You deserve it."
Ma Zhishi: "Hahaha, no wonder the group chat has been so harmonious in recent days!"
Xiaolan suggested: "If you bribe Teacher Lu, you might be able to get a few hours off~"
Kristal whispered: "I'd better apologize to Teacher Lu, Ajin..."
Ah Jin secretly glanced at Teacher Lu, who was looking at the five Eevee sisters of the quintuplets.
Lu Ye sighed with emotion: "My fairy Eevee is still cute..."
"Buyi~o(??^`)o"
Fairy Eevee gave up the plan of beating all these 'wild Eevee', and gracefully stretched out the ribbon and wrapped it around Luye's arm.
"Teacher Lu." Ah Jin whispered, "How about you let me out of the dark room and I'll help you this time?"
Lu Ye was stunned: "So you don't count as a sniper?"
Ah Jin wiped his nose proudly: "Haha, after all, I am the star trainer who saves the world!"
Teacher Lu fell silent and then extended the ban for another 24 hours.
Akin:!!?
After the dance ended, Ah Jin held his cell phone in pain. For a talkative person, being banned and unable to get the 'Dragon King' was undoubtedly a tragic thing.
Xiaoyin grabbed his back collar and followed Teacher Lu's footsteps expressionlessly.
"Why don't you stay in Platycodon City for one night before leaving, Teacher Lu?" Prosecutor Asu persuaded.
"The main thing is that we also made an appointment to meet in Huipi Town." Lu Ye said.
Dr. Xiuli, a doctor who studies ancient writing, is waiting for his bodyguard and researcher Lu Ye in Huipi Town.
Dr. Xiuli himself felt that it was not a bad idea to call Lu Ye "teacher" after hearing the Tao.
"Yes." Asu nodded regretfully, but saw Teacher Lu suddenly take out a QR code and asked blankly: "What is this?"
"It's here." Lu Ye coughed lightly, "Let me collect a character illustration first!"
Asu:???
**
After saying goodbye to Aso, the three of them left Platycodon City as a team and headed to Hinopi Town, which is famous for the "Well of Slowpoke" in the dusk.
In addition, Huipi Town has one of the most outstanding hand-made mandarin fruit ball craftsmen, Mr. Steel.
Lu Ye rode the Wind Speed Dog and followed Rotom's navigation on the road.
Wearing goggles, Akin sat on Hōbōtaro's back, resting his arms on his head and yawning: "How far is it still?"
"Ten minutes." Little Silver hung the crow's head by its paw, flying in mid-air, playing with the phone with one hand, "We'll be here soon."
Lu Ye looked at Xiaoyin and said curiously: "I've always wanted to ask, doesn't it hurt to hold your hand like this?"
"..." Xiao Yin said after silence: "There are gloves..."
It’s not a question of whether your hands have gloves or not!
The physiques of you people are outrageous, and Hong Hong can still fly by holding on to the claws of a fossil pterosaur!
Lu Ye touched his chin.
But my tortoise can also eject and start... I can't say that others can...
"The illustrated book keeps beeping." Ah Jin complained and took out the special edition illustrated book.
"That's the notification sound when the illustrated book holders gather together." Xiao Yin said calmly.
"I know! I just think he is too noisy."
"Strange..." Xiao Yin whispered: "Isn't it the prompt sound of the rendezvous, but that there is another holder nearby?"
The red-haired boy looked at Teacher Lu and said, "Teacher Lu, where is your illustrated book?"
Lu Ye pointed to Gengar floating in front: "Here, there."
"Kou Jie?" Gengar floated back to the team, and the prompt sound stopped.
Xiaoyin fell into silence.
Gengar is really starting to look more and more like Teacher Lu...in every sense of the word.
As the sun sets in the west, the owl flaps its wings and flies through the twilight, rustling through the grass.
Juniper Town is right in front of you, and you pass by the famous landscape "Well of Slowpoke", where many Slowpoke are yawning.
"Teacher Lu." Ah Jin suddenly said with a smile, "Why don't you teach me another tactic so that we can cooperate when we take action?"
Lu Ye, the illustrated holder recognized by Dr. Oki and the "man of tactics", was stunned: "What do you want to learn?"
"It's all OK! Team Weather, Team Killer." Ah Jin pointed at the red-haired boy, "That one with a paralyzed face has a Thorn Dragon King, and Taro Mosquito can just cooperate with it!"
"I don't." Xiao Yin replied coldly.
"Hey, we are partners!" Ah Jin said seriously.
Xiaoyin looked away silently, lowering his head to fiddle with his phone.
Lu Ye smiled like Aunt Kona and coughed dryly: "To be honest...it's mainly because I taught you, but you can't learn it either."
Ah Jin was stunned for a moment.
"Everyone has their own tactics."
Lu Ye encouraged: "As for Ah Jin, just continue to be a role model for the relay team!"
"Fan, template!?"
Ah Jin's eyes widened unexpectedly, and he immediately smiled: "I knew, sir, I still have some tactical skills!"
Xiaoyin: "...Idiot."
Ajin: "Hey, I heard everything!"
Amidst the noise, the group arrived at Huipi Town, where the famous Aluf ruins were not far away.
According to the agreed place, Lu Ye met Dr. Xiuli, who studied ancient characters.
"Long time no see." Dr. Xiuli shook hands with Lu Ye vigorously and said with emotion: "The ancient philology work you published has benefited me a lot!"
"Haha, I just translated some of it casually." Lu Ye said modestly.
Dr. Xiuli:???
It's really simple, all you need is paper and pen, but that's not the point right now.
According to Dr. Xiuli, this trip requires going deep into the Alfu ruins, and there is a high possibility of being attacked by unknown totems.
"At that time, I will need your help." Dr. Xiuli looked at Xiaoyin and Ajin.
Xiao Yin folded his arms in silence, and Ah Jin grinned: "You don't have to rely on us, Teacher Lu is actually a champion trainer!"
Dr. Xiuli was stunned and looked at Teacher Lu, who had a serious face.
"Rumors." Lu Ye said, "But my girlfriend is."
"That's it." Dr. Xiuli breathed a sigh of relief. Wait, something's not quite right?
Your girlfriend is a champion? Wouldn’t that be...
Dr. Xiuli was greatly shocked and calmed down, saying:
"Ahem... We plan to take action tomorrow morning, and tonight we will mainly survey the surrounding environment."
"It's worth noting that deep within the ruins of Alfu, there is another ruins, which requires us..."
"Wait a minute!" Lu Ye interrupted, "What did you say, another ruins?!"
Dr. Xiuli was stunned and nodded: "Yes, it is recorded in the legend of the city that it is the ruins of a divine city dedicated to Arceus."
In an instant, Teacher Lu's expression changed slightly, and he felt a familiar chill on his back.
I've been fooled, I've been fooled this time!
Co-authoring this is still a game within a game?
In the Johto area...build the temple of Arceus
Wouldn’t it mean that you don’t take my big-mouthed brother (cross out)…Brother Feng Wang into your eyes?
Could it be that this is the plot of "HeartGold/SoulSilver" and I didn't happen to trigger it?
Lu Ye looked at Ajin silently.
"Why are you looking at me like this all of a sudden?" The boy in the peaked hat was stunned.
"It's nothing." Lu Ye shook his head and sighed: "I want to be alone for a while."
"Of course it's no problem." Dr. Xiuli smiled and said, "We'll leave tomorrow morning."
"Don't worry, I'm just investigating the text on the stone tablet and the unknown totem, nothing else will happen, haha!"
Lu Ye: "..."
I hope so.
…
Night falls.
An owl-like coo stood on the top of the tree, making a "coo" call.
Ah Bi, the gym leader of Huipi Town, entertained Teacher Lu and others, and shamefully refused the wine bottle handed over by Ah Jin.
"I, I don't know how to drink!" A Bi said with a blush.
"It's not good to keep toasting girls." Dr. Xiuli said.
"I'm a boy." Abi said.
The boy in the peaked hat put his arms around A Bi's delicate neck, laughed and said, "Let's drink together!"
Xiao Yin looked at Teacher Lu, who was in a depressed mood, with a sullen face.
"You don't seem to be in a good mood."
"Because Xiaozhi just sent a picture." Lu Ye sighed.
Xiao Yin was startled and clicked on the chat group.
[Ash: I just won the Midina Battle Celebration Championship! (Picture)]
Everyone congratulated one after another, Xiaogang squinted his eyes: "Indeed, it is a very valuable award."
Xiaozhi scratched his head and smiled: "Hey, I don't know why, but I'm in really good condition today!"
Midina...the temple of Arceus is located, and it is said to be the place where the clone of Arceus descended.
In other words, this is the scene at the beginning of the movie series where "Master Zhi" kills people randomly...
Teacher Lu's breathing shortened, and the familiar feeling of suffocation surged into his chest.
This wave, this wave is a double-threaded backstab.
You obviously want to escape, but you are destined to settle down!
