Elf: Re-employment of retired champion of Padiya

Chapter 677: The origin of Disciple Bear?

At this time, the beige bear's hair was in a half-wet and half-dry state, as if it had been out of the water for some time.

Although it was so weak that it was dazed, it still maintained a standing posture, as if it was alert to the Dragonites.

It was not until it saw Luo Mu, a relatively "familiar" human, that it stumbled over to Luo Mu, then fell to the ground.

The wild Dragonites were startled by Apprentice Bear's reaction, and their "boom" sounds disturbed Luo Mu, who didn't care about his still confused brain, and immediately squatted down and picked up Apprentice Bear.

He still can't figure it out until now.

No, where did this bear disciple from Kuailong Island come from?
This is Dragonite Island, not Kai Island!
But rather than worrying about the origins of the bear apprentice, what we need to do now is obviously to stabilize the condition of this bear apprentice.

Luo Mu said to a familiar-looking creature beside him, who should be the wild Dragonite that was beaten up by the Dragonite leader yesterday, "Go find the Flower Therapy Ring. It should be over there in the flower field now."

The entire Kuailong Island has a rich ecology and a natural flower field.

They discovered that place when they were exploring the island yesterday. Judging from the fact that Hualiao Huanhuan was not there when they got up, it was most likely that it had run there.

The middle-aged wild Dragonite that was called by Luo Mu was stunned for a second, then reacted and immediately responded to his order.

——Who made them see with their own eyes yesterday how friendly the tribe leader was to Luo Mu?

It would be such a disadvantage if I was beaten by the clan leader under the pretext of training because I was disobedient.

Although Kuailong seems silly, he actually has a lot of clever ideas and will never make trouble for himself.

After the wild adult dragon flew away, Luo Mu immediately returned to the tent and got some towels and the remaining firewood from last night.

Then he asked the Dragonites who were still watching fiercely, "Who can spray fire? Spray it here. Remember to control the force so as not to burn the firewood into charcoal."

Fortunately, these big guys were not just there to watch the fun. Soon, a female Dragonite with a softer appearance came out.

A perfectly placed spark of fire fell on the firewood built by Luo Mu and immediately began to burn.

"Huh - keep warm first."

Luo Mu exhaled and moved his bear apprentice, who had been wrapped in a towel, a little further away from the firewood.

This way you won’t get burned, and you won’t have to worry about the temperature being too high.

The bear apprentice's hair, which had been wiped dry with a towel, was gradually being dried by the warm heat emitted by the burning pile of firewood.

If Dragonite and Moltres hadn't disappeared, Luo Mu wouldn't have to go through so much trouble.

After all, the temperature-adjustable hot air from Dragonite can act like a hair dryer, and it will dry the bear apprentice's hair in no time.

"I have a slight fever. Could it be caused by prolonged hypothermia?"

Relying on his limited medical experience, Luo Mu judged the condition of his disciple Xiong.

Fortunately, his basic knowledge has become quite solid after systematic study with Joeylin from the Pokémon Center in Pingdie Town. This disease, which is not a difficult one, can be diagnosed quickly and accurately.

There is no need for a self-promoting reminder system to make your presence felt.

Thinking about the wet state of Apprentice Bear just now, and the fact that this is Dragonite Island, all the people watching are wild Dragonites, and there are some very famous anecdotes about them.

Luo Mu suddenly had a bold guess.

Could it be that this bear apprentice was rescued from the sea by a Dragonite?
It rained heavily last night, so the sea probably won't be so calm.

Pokémon like Dragonite often rescue drowning humans or Pokémon in the vast ocean.

The more he thought about it, the more he felt that it made sense. Luo Mu asked the wild Dragonites around him, "Did anyone among you save it?"

As soon as Luo Mu asked this question, a Dragonite immediately stood up and said that the bear disciple was indeed rescued from the sea by it.

At that time, it was taking a walk in the nearby sea and found this bear apprentice who was gradually becoming weak in the sea water.

At that time, the sea was full of huge waves, heavy rain and strong winds. God knows how long the bear apprentice had been drifting on the sea. When its kind heart came into play, it brought the bear apprentice back.

Although Luo Mu couldn't quite understand what the wild Dragonite was "booing" because there was no translator, judging from its reaction, his guess was probably right.

For unknown reasons, this bear apprentice who sailed across the ocean encountered a "shipwreck" and almost drowned. He was then rescued by a passing wild Dragonite and taken directly back to Dragonite Island.

To make a Fighting-type Pokémon like Bear Apprentice, which should have a strong physique, so weak, God knows how long it has been drifting on the sea.

But the Dragonites obviously didn't know how to help their bear apprentice who was suffering from hypothermia and fever, so they were so excited when they saw themselves.

After figuring out the origins of the bear apprentice, Luo Mu found some special Pokémon medicine that he carried with him from his bag and fed it to the unconscious bear apprentice with warm water.

That's all he can do.

Next, we can only wait for Huahe Huanhuan to come back before we can carry out more effective treatment.

The middle-aged wild Dragonite soon returned here with the Flower Therapy Ring.

Under the dual treatment of "flower therapy" and "aromatherapy", plus the effect of the special medicine fed by Luo Mu, the unstable vital signs of apprentice Bear soon stabilized.

The fever subsided about half an hour after the treatment, but there was no sign of waking up.

In Luo Mu's opinion, it was probably because of the physical overdraft that the bear apprentice's body protection mechanism was triggered, and now he needed a "deep sleep like a coma" to restore the overdrawn energy and physical strength.

Luo Mu had no choice but to take his bear apprentice to his own camp, canceled his plan to continue visiting Kuailong Island in the morning, and started taking care of the little bear.

——After all, he couldn't expect these Dragonites to understand this.

As it was almost noon, the Pokémon that had gone out while Luo Mu was sleeping came back one after another.

When they saw the unfamiliar face of Bear Apprentice, they all showed surprised reactions.

Some people had a wild imagination and thought it was a Pokémon hatched from an egg.

Some even thought that Luo Mu had brought back new members from somewhere.

"It's not a new member. It's just a Pokémon in distress that was rescued by Dragonite on the island."

Luo Mu patiently explained.

Let’s not talk about whether he is greedy for the bear apprentice or not, or whether he is greedy for the thick hair outside the strong muscles of the martial arts bear master after the bear apprentice evolved.

Without knowing the origins of Disciple Xiong, Luo Mu couldn't say that Disciple Xiong was a new member he had brought back.

After all, he currently has two guesses about Apprentice Bear's origins.

One is that for unknown reasons, it sailed across the ocean from the nearby Galar Sea.

In that case, this bear apprentice is most likely the bear apprentice from Kaidao.

If it could really drift so far, to be honest, Luo Mu would quite admire this bear apprentice.

——He is a man of great perseverance!
Second, the bear apprentice is a wild individual that is not mentioned in the game but actually exists in this world.

He also crossed the ocean for unknown reasons, and not only had perseverance, but also had the great fortune of being picked up by a wild Dragonite. But no matter where the Bear Apprentice came from, we cannot hastily classify him as a new member of the farm without knowing his attitude.

——Who knows if it will want to go home after it wakes up?
After Luo Mu's patient explanation, some of the people who were overly excited finally calmed down.

He stayed quietly beside Luo Mu, watching when his disciple Bear would wake up.

Today's election for the clan leader will not be held until the evening, so we have some free time now.

Fortunately, Apprentice Xiong did not keep them waiting for long.

Perhaps it is due to the outstanding physical fitness of the Fighting-type Pokémon and its own potential as a legendary Pokémon.

Around four or five in the afternoon, Apprentice Bear's tightly closed eyes finally trembled and slowly opened.

"Oh?"

Letting out a weak groan, Apprentice Bear looked at the unfamiliar surroundings, and his first reaction was to get up.

At this time.

Luo Mu, who was lying drowsy beside him, subconsciously put his palm on it. Feeling the other party's suddenly tense body, he subconsciously said: "Don't get up right away, you need to relax for a while."

When he heard the human voice, Apprentice Bear's nervous mood eased a little.

It turned its head to look at Luo Mu beside it and blinked its bright black eyes.

"Beaa?" (Did you save me?)
"Technically, I just treated you."

"The ones who saved you were the group of Dragonites outside."

Listening to Moltres's translation outside the tent, Luo Mu yawned with his eyes half closed, then stood up and opened the tent curtain.

Outside the tent, the faces of the Dragonites filled the entire exit of the tent.

Wild Dragonites: (〃'▽'〃) Boohoo~ (Hello~)
Apprentice Bear: “.”

Luo Mu thought that his bear apprentice would have some reaction, but he didn't expect it to just turn its head away.

It's like pretending not to see any wild Dragonite.

Regardless of the dejected expressions of the wild Dragonites that day, Luo Mu noticed the change in Apprentice Bear's expression because he was standing at a different angle from them.

First there was sluggishness, then a flash of guilt, and finally ending in shame.

Apprentice Bear seems to be ashamed of himself for misunderstanding the wild Dragonites?
Thinking back to when he saw Apprentice Bear from the encirclement of the Dragonites and the other party's tense look, Luo Mu suddenly realized that Apprentice Bear probably thought that the wild Dragonites had bad intentions at that time?
That's why he turned sideways and escaped from reality like an ostrich.

Only after Luo Mu pulled the curtain back together did Disciple Xiong finally turn around.

Obviously, it still doesn't know how to face the wild Dragonites that it misunderstood.

After a while, after drinking some hot water, the bear disciple was able to sit up normally.

Luo Mu could also take this opportunity to inquire about Disciple Xiong's origins.

If it comes from Kai Island, send it back first.

If it is wild, and Disciple Bear wants it back, then send it back.

Luo Mu would not do such a thing as to cheat and deceive for the sake of the young of the legendary elves.

"First of all, do you remember being adrift on the sea?"

Relying on the translation of Moltres outside the tent, Luo Mu also asked his bear apprentice in detail.

".Beaa." (Remember.)
After hesitating for two seconds, Apprentice Bear nodded slightly, with a slight fear of surviving a disaster appearing on his face.

While answering, some fragments of memories emerged in Apprentice Bear's mind.

It completely underestimated the power of the ocean.

I was thinking of strengthening my body through swimming, hoping to become less useless and not become the last one in the class.

But I didn't expect the sea to be so dangerous.

After it swam hard for a long time, it finally found that it had lost its way. Soon a strong wind blew on the sea, coupled with the influence of heavy rain, the originally calm sea suddenly became violent.

Under the attack of wave after wave, its physical strength, which was not very sufficient to begin with, was immediately exhausted. In the end, it almost lost the strength to float up and was about to sink helplessly into the sea.

It didn't remember what happened afterwards very clearly. It only vaguely knew that a pair of big hands picked it up one second before it lost consciousness.

When he came to his senses again, Apprentice Bear found himself surrounded by huge Dragonites.

Each of these Dragonites is much larger than himself, and coupled with the aura of the other party's dragon-attribute Pokémon, how could the bear apprentice not be nervous?
It was not until it saw Luo Mu, a man with all human characteristics, that it relaxed.

Luo Mu, who didn't know that his bear apprentice was recalling, asked it a few more questions.

For example, where did the bear apprentice come from, why was it at sea, and whether it wanted to go back.

But for some reason, Apprentice Bear was inexplicably reluctant to answer these questions. He just said that he was swimming in the sea because he wanted to exercise his body, and was accidentally lost and caught in the storm.

As for its origin and whether it should go back, Apprentice Bear temporarily "answered" with silence.

Helplessly, Luo Mu could only stop asking and said, "You must be hungry. We're going to have dinner soon. Do you want to eat something?"

Apprentice Xiong's eyes lit up and he was about to agree, but then he seemed a little embarrassed and stopped abruptly.

Before it could continue filling its stomach, its little belly made a loud growling sound, and it was obviously very hungry.

In the end, Apprentice Bear could only take a portion of the delicious food with a blushing face.

By the way, because last night's lunch and lunch were all freeloaded by these wild Dragonite and Haxorus, Luo Mu was forced to do hard work. So for this afternoon's meal, Luo Mu directly and sternly rejected the evil idea of ​​these greedy guys who wanted to eat and drink for free.

After eating and drinking to their heart's content, seeing that it was getting late, Luo Mu asked his apprentice, "My Dragonite will be participating in the Dragonite clan leader election later, and there will probably be a battle session at that time."

"Do you want to go with us to watch the battle, or stay in the tent?"

"Don't worry, if you want to stay, I'll let the Roentgen cats accompany you."

Regarding Luo Mu's question, Disciple Xiong made the decision without even thinking about it.

It tightened its white hair that looked like a headband and made an expectant cry: "Bea ...

It also wants to watch the battle!

A glimmer of desire ignited in Disciple Xiong's eyes, but Luo Mu did not notice it because Disciple Xiong had his back to him.

But for the bear apprentice, it is looking forward to the battle between powerful Pokémon.

After all, it went swimming in the sea just to train itself to be stronger and more powerful, so it lost its way and couldn't find the way back.
