Pokémon: Starting as a Pokémon Researcher with Milotic

The Graveler reached out as if to try and stop Ye Chen, but Ye Chen had already walked away.

Finally, he could only say helplessly, "The danger level of this secret realm is still unknown. Even if you are powerful, wandering around like this could still lead to danger. Are all young people these days so reckless?"

He then rushed to the rumbler stone and took out a healing spray to treat it.

While spraying, he said, "Looks like we'll have to train a bit when we get back, what do you think, Graveler?"

Rumblestone slapped the ground with its rough, large hands: "Rumble!"

"You mean you'll definitely work hard? Great! I'll arrange a training plan for you when we get back, hahaha."

The rumbling of the rocks, tinged with anger, could be heard intermittently, along with the loud laughter of men.

With the crisis seemingly over, the trainer finally relaxed and even started joking with Graveler.

The man seemed to have a sudden realization, "If I were that powerful, we wouldn't have been in that crisis just now. Maybe I could have saved others like that boy saved me..."

At this point, the man suddenly paused.

Yes, if that boy had stayed in the same place after entering the secret realm, how could he have saved himself?

So, is exploring the secret realm actually a pretense, and his real purpose in going to find other humans who have strayed into it?

Thinking of this, the man felt a deep respect for Ye Chen!

The departing figure waving away suddenly seemed taller, like someone bathed in light.

This is not youthful recklessness, but a righteous act of risking one's own life to save others!

P.S.: Happy Mid-Autumn Festival everyone! Please give me some flowers and ratings in celebration of the festival!

Chapter Thirty-Six: Venusaur and Torterra

Ye Chen walked for an unknown amount of time, and it had already gotten dark in the secret realm.

Ye Chen didn't know why there was day and night in the secret realm. Logically speaking, the secret realm should just be a small space, and there shouldn't be a sun.

However, apart from the absence of human traces, the environment in the secret realm is almost identical to that of the outside world.

Along the way, Ye Chen fought dozens of battles against various Pokémon. When Kirlia got tired, he would switch to Milotic, and then the two would take turns. If either of them was injured, he would use the power of Viridian to heal them, keeping both Pokémon's stamina at a relatively good level.

Along the way, we encountered several humans: some were fighting against evil spirits, some were safely hiding in a place, and some had already turned into corpses...

Ye Chen would save as many people as he could, just as he had said before: in dangerous secret realms, humans can only survive by helping each other.

Moreover, these people were not gold prospectors who entered the secret realm to explore; they were just pitiful people who were dragged into the secret realm by the suction force when it descended.

Ye Chen also discovered that the further he went in the direction indicated by the marker, the less the elves were corrupted by malice.

He even saw a King Toad defeat the trainer's Pokémon, but its eyes kept flashing red, and in the end it left on its own.

After many battles, Kirlia's level has also increased to the intermediate mid-tier, and it seems that because this is a forest, there are an unusually large number of grass-type Pokémon.

After repeatedly battling them, Kirlia surprisingly learned the Magic Leaf technique without any instruction.

Magic Leaf isn't particularly powerful, but its special ability is that it always hits!

"Kirullian, Magic Leaf!"

The Mankey, fighting Kirlia, dodged the incoming attack to the right, its fierce eyes becoming even more cruel, as if it could already see the scene of the Kirlia being torn to pieces by itself.

The monkey monster was already a grumpy and easily angered spirit, and after being corrupted by malice, it became even more bloodthirsty and cruel, killing many spirits cruelly after it discovered them.

The monkey monster accelerated its forward momentum again, and then it was a flash of lightning!

Kirlia used Instant Teleport to dodge; no matter how fast you are, you can't be faster than Instant Teleport!

The monkey monster, poised in the empty space, circled around and roared angrily, only to be struck by three suddenly appearing pale green leaves, collapsing to the ground and losing its fighting ability.

Ye Chen touched the back of his hand; the mark on it told him that Celebi was not far ahead.

After walking forward for several dozen meters,

Whether it was a misperception or not, Ye Chen felt that the oppressive feeling seemed to have faded a bit. Although the surrounding trees looked the same as the previous trees, he could feel a sense of vitality emanating from them.

"Looks like we're almost there!"

Ye Chen's pace quickened unconsciously, but he stopped after walking several dozen meters.

Because standing in front of him were two enormous elves, one with a huge flower growing on its back and the other with a tree on its back.

It's Venusaur and Torterra!

They looked exhausted, their bodies bearing the marks of battle, but their eyes remained sharp, staring at Ye Chen with a warning.

If Ye Chen takes just one more step forward, they will launch an attack.

"Bana!"

"Roar!"

Ye Chen understood what they meant.

"return to!"

Although they were hostile to Ye Chen's arrival, Ye Chen noticed that there was no red light in their eyes, which meant that they had not been infected by malice!

This was the first time Ye Chen had seen an elf in its normal state in this secret realm.

Ye Chen used the system to look at the two elves.

Elf: Bulbasaur

Level: Senior/Advanced

Potential: Gym Level

……

Pokémon: Torterra

Level: Senior/Advanced

Potential: Gym Level

These two Pokémon were both veteran-level Pokémon. Although they had already gone through many battles and exhausted most of their stamina, it was almost impossible for Ye Chen to force his way through through battle.

"Venusaur, Torterra, we are not enemies, don't be nervous," Ye Chen shouted.

However, the wariness in the eyes of the two elves did not diminish in the slightest.

Most of the elves in this secret realm have been corrupted by malice and become extremely aggressive, but the further you go in, the more they can control themselves.

Now, there are even two Pokémon that have not been affected by any malice, which makes Ye Chen have a guess.

Perhaps this is the territory of Celebi in the secret realm, which has isolated this area from the influence of malice.

These two elves are likely the guardians of this place, preventing those maliciously corrupted elves from entering.

The scars on their bodies are good proof!

"Look!" Ye Chen shouted, taking off his gloves that were covering his markings. "I was sent by Celebi to help. Let me in, I can help you!"

Venusaur and Torterra's eyes widened the moment they saw the mark. Venusaur then slowly walked forward and sniffed the green-glowing mark with its nose.

The scorching heat made Ye Chen feel a little itchy.

It smells like Lady Celebi!

Although Venusaur had never seen Celebi in the Blue Forest, it could recognize that it smelled of the same kind as Celebi!

Venusaur's gaze towards Ye Chen immediately became much friendlier, and it turned to Torterra and said "Bana".

The earth-based tortoise's eyes also became friendly, and it moved its huge body to make way for Ye Chen.

Ye Chen did not pass directly, but instead stretched out a hand and placed it on Venusaur's head. The hand slowly emitted a green light, and Venusaur felt a warm current flowing into its body, repairing the injuries it had suffered.

Soon, his injuries were completely healed!

Afterwards, Ye Chen also used the power of the Everlasting Rock to heal the Earth Platform Turtle.

Ye Chen lowered his hand, his face pale. It seemed that he was still struggling to heal a senior-level Pokémon. After two treatments, his Viridian Power was almost depleted.

The two elves looked at Ye Chen with even greater affection, and just as Ye Chen was about to continue forward, they called him to stop.

Then he took two items from the flowers on his back and from the tree and handed them to Ye Chen.

(The image shows Venusaur.)

Chapter Thirty-Seven: Finally Meeting Celebi

Ye Chen took them and saw that they were a miracle seed and a tree fruit.

However, this tree fruit is different from the tree fruit Ye Chen bought online before; it's called the Mystery Fruit.

It is one of the most precious tree fruits. If consumed directly, it can increase a Pokémon's control over energy. If it is made into an energy cube, its effect will be greatly enhanced.

It is said that there is a tree in the Alliance headquarters that can bear a mysterious fruit. It can only produce one fruit after accumulating energy for a whole year. Many times, even the Heavenly Kings are not fortunate enough to enjoy it, so this fruit is extremely valuable!

Ye Chen looked at the Earth Platform Turtle with curiosity; the tree on its back could actually bear this kind of fruit!

Upon closer inspection, only lush leaves and branches remained on the tree behind it; there was no more fruit. In other words, the Earth Platform Turtle had only produced this one mysterious fruit over the years.

"Thank you, I will accept these two items, and I will definitely restore this secret realm to normal!"
