Elf: I'm Just a Commentator

If this guy hadn't been unfamiliar with Romance of the Three Kingdoms, he probably would have said something like—

The fish has lived half its life, only regretting that it has not met a wise ruler. If you do not abandon it, the fish is willing to become your godfather!

Seeing Lin Xuan about to stick out his tongue and lick him, the corner of his mouth twitched slightly. In fact, not only Savage Bass, but also the viewers in the live broadcast room were startled when they saw Lin Xuan's actions.

[Wow, when did Mimikyu become so generous?]

I thought the reward from Mimikyu was an Energy Cube.

Give it to me! I'll swim you there!

It's no wonder that viewers made such comments. The main reason is that energy cubes are not cheap. Even for the most common energy cubes, the box that Lin Xuan took out would most likely cost no less than four figures, especially considering Lin Xuan's long-standing reputation for being stingy.

"The main problem is that we can't use these things anyway. If we had known they were useless, we wouldn't have bought so many..."

Lin Xuan also felt a little heartbroken, but the only use the water-based energy cubes had for him was feeding the fish...

Then Kirullian released the Savage Bass into the lake, and once it entered the water, it showed no intention of escaping, probably thinking about those Power Cubes!

"Where am I supposed to sit?"

The savage bass was very long, but because it had fins, Lin Xuan couldn't find a place to put her bottom for a while, so she finally sat down between the two dorsal fins.

"Swim a little slower, okay?"

Lin Xuan grabbed his dorsal fin and threw an energy cube over, while reminding the Savage Bass.

"Lulu!"

When Wild Bass first heard Lin Xuan's words, he was thinking that this guy was making a fuss over nothing, but when he saw the energy cube, he immediately said that it was no problem at all, the customer is God!

Eevee floated in mid-air using its psychic powers, with a mobile phone following beside it providing a live "aerial" video. As for Tiny, it could fly freely. Kirlia, the only Pokémon without the ability to fly, was temporarily recalled into its Poké Ball by Lin Xuan.

"Hmm...maybe I should catch a Laplace? That way I can lie down in situations like this~"

The Savage Bass was moving at a decent speed, and with the help of the Energy Cube, it took full account of Lin Xuan's experience as "God," swimming quite steadily. Lin Xuan looked at the scenery on the lake while talking.

Laplace?

[Isn't this the infamous traitor Pokémon?]

[With Mimikyu and Laplace combined, all I can say is that this is insane buff stacking!]

Lin Xuan glanced at the comments and felt it was just a lack of trust in him. The fact that Laplace's water cannon missed was because someone else was using it. If it were him, he wouldn't even fire the water cannon! He would just keep using the foam aria and eliminate any future problems!

"Thanks to Tubiaoke and Tutuquan for the SC—【Why not let Eevee carry you across?】"

"Boy!"

Lin Xuan didn't react to the SC from the viewers, but Ibu was the first to say he wouldn't do it. Asking him to carry Lin Xuan such a long distance was probably trying to exhaust her.

Is it even human to say such a thing?

But clearly, Lin Xuan had already begun to think. It seemed that what the netizen said was not wrong. After all, with Eevee's omnipotent superpowers, it seemed that it could go anywhere.

However, after thinking about it more carefully, he decided against it. There were quite a few Pokémon in the lake. Although according to the data provided by the League, the strongest Pokémon here was only three-star, which Lin Xuan could handle, it was still someone else's home turf, so it would be safer to find a mount.

Don't underestimate a three-star Pokémon. Although Lin Xuan wasn't afraid of wild Pokémon of this level at the moment, it was already terrifying to the average person. After all, the goal for most trainers is three-star level or even lower.

Lin Xuan had the Savage Bass lead her around in the direction of their school of fish. After all, if there were any White Striped Savage Bass, they would only be there. It was unlikely that the Sharp-Toothed Fish and Gyarados would be able to coexist peacefully with a Savage Bass.

As soon as Lin Xuan said this, some viewers felt it was too dangerous and started to dissuade him, but Lin Xuan was not afraid at all. With Xiao Dian here, although this was the home ground of the Savage Bass family, it was also Xiao Dian's territory. One 100,000 volts would shock a whole group.

Chapter 233 Ibu used diving

However, Lin Xuan's words were quickly proven wrong. Before he could advance a distance, a figure emerged from underwater, and the huge wave it created almost knocked over the Savage Bass under Lin Xuan's butt. Eevee quickly released its superpowers to block the impact in front of Lin Xuan.

This wasn't an attack skill; rather, it seemed to be just a splash created when the enormous creature rolled over.

"Holy crap, Gyarados!"

Lin Xuan looked at the Gyarados that was looking at him like he was an ant from a distance and cursed.

These guys are supposed to only live in the lake, how come I ran into them after only taking a few steps? Even with the best fishing rod in the game, I wouldn't have this kind of luck, right? And I'm not even fishing!

Lin Xuan was fine with Eevee protecting her. The only problem was that during the wave, Lin Xuan's phone was swept into the lake and slammed into the water. Xiao Dian instinctively tried to retrieve it, but it disappeared in the blink of an eye.

Although most mobile phones on the market are waterproof, this feature is usually only waterproof against splashes, not against accidental touching. Lin Xuan's situation is probably even more serious than just being careless.

Lin Xuan's phone malfunctioned, so the live stream on Bilibili was immediately shut down, leaving the viewers who were peacefully watching the stream wondering what was going on.

【? ? ? 】

【what happened? 】

[Did something happen to Teacher Mimikyu?]

"No way, we're only on the outskirts."

I think Professor Mimikyu is probably alright, but her phone has probably been mailed.

[It's alright. I remember Mimikyu went there; the Pokémon there weren't very strong. Small should be able to handle it.]

I think I should worry more about the guy who broke Mimikyu-sensei's phone than Mimikyu-sensei...

Although the scene was only fleeting, some people vaguely saw the appearance of the elf that attacked Lin Xuan.

[It looks like a Gyarados?]

[Then there's no need to worry, Xiao Dian will stun you in no time.]

Although there were still some concerns, most people felt that Lin Xuan could solve this minor problem. After all, most viewers in his live stream knew his strength, and he also had a natural advantage in this kind of situation.

"Slow down, take him down. Ibrahimovic, can I borrow your phone?"

Lin Xuan felt a pang of heartache thinking about the phone she had just dropped into the lake. She glanced at the Gyarados not far away and immediately spoke to Xiao Dian, who didn't hesitate and cast an electric net to "catch the fish."

He borrowed Eevee's phone from the backpack that was slightly wet from the lake behind him, posted a status on Bilibili to say that he was fine, and after posting his safety statement, he glanced at the Gyarados that was screaming in pain from the electric shocks from the little dot not far away, and then took a picture and uploaded it.

[My phone arrived, I'm having a grilled Gyarados for dinner tonight!]

The comments section of this post was instantly flooded with viewers who had just been worried.

【666】

[As expected of a small shop]

Why did Gyarados have to come here of all things?

The comments section was mostly filled with people mourning for this Gyarados.

Within a minute, the Gyarados couldn't stand the small electric net anymore and prepared to run away, diving straight into the water.

While it's true that Little Point isn't afraid of any Water-type Pokémon in this kind of environment, this Gyarados is much stronger than the Savannah beneath Lin Xuan. If it really wants to escape, Little Point can't stop it, since doing so would require unleashing its full power, which would affect Lin Xuan and might even attract the attention of other Water-type Pokémon nearby, so it's really unnecessary.

So after Lin Xuan greeted him, Xiao Dian watched as the Gyarados slunk away from the bottom of the water, completely lacking the imposing aura it had when it first appeared.

As for the savage bass under Lin Xuan's butt, its eyes widened at this moment. After realizing what had happened, it had a look of relief on its face. Fortunately, the guy who attacked it earlier wasn't Xiao Dian, otherwise it might have really been electrocuted.

Why is Gyarados here?

Lin Xuan frowned and asked the Savage Bass, "I thought that Gyarados only appeared in the inner lake, so both Eevee and Lin Xuan were a little too relaxed just now, which allowed him to attack successfully. Fortunately, Eevee's Dangerous Sense activated in advance and blocked the wave for Lin Xuan with its psychic power."

The Savage Bass quickly provided an explanation, roughly meaning that the number of Magikarp evolving into Gyarados has increased significantly recently, the Gyarados population has become much stronger, and they seem to have the idea of ​​expanding their territory.

Lin Xuan nodded upon hearing this, then tossed an energy cube to the ground. The Savage Bass happily swallowed it in one gulp and became even more enthusiastic in answering questions.

Do you often battle with Gyarados?

The answer from the Savage Bass is no. Even at the height of the Gyarados clan, it was still relatively restrained. At most, there were minor skirmishes due to food issues. The key conflicts were with the Red-striped Savage Bass and the Megalodon clan.

Lin Xuan quickly became curious about the Savage Bass.

"Your savage perch population is so large... Where are your dead companions buried?"

Lin Xuan remembered something: the evolution of the white-striped savage bass, the description of the Darktail Blackfish: After the savage bass's companions fell on the harsh journey upstream, their resentful souls possessed the savage bass, causing it to evolve.

Although the Savage Bass mainly evolves by using self-sacrifice skills, Lin Xuan felt that this introduction should not be overlooked, because the Dark Tail Black Fish does seem to possess certain characteristics similar to a soul.

More importantly, the Savage Bass that can evolve into the Ghost Tail Black Fish must be white-striped. Could there be some special connection between the white-striped Savage Bass and this kind of soul?

Lin Xuan thought it was possible, which is why she asked the Wild Bass this question.

When the Savage Bass heard Lin Xuan's words, it was stunned for a moment. For Pokémon like them, especially a combative Pokémon like the Savage Bass, there were only two ways to die: dying in battle, or dying in battle due to a decline in strength caused by the accumulation of physical injuries and hidden wounds.

This is the final resting place for these Pokémon, and also the final resting place for many Pokémon. As for burial... they do not have such a special ritual. The remains of their dead companions are either devoured by their rivals or carried away by the water.

"Then...do you know where their remains ended up?"

Lin Xuan pressed for more details, feeling that this might be an extremely important key.

Upon hearing these words, the Savage Bass turned its body towards the direction where Gyarados had left.

"A Gyarados clan? Or rather... the middle of the lake?"

The Savage Bass nodded again. Although Gyarados are ferocious by nature, their main food is actually birds that fly in the sky. After all, they can fly and can kill their prey in one bite. This is one of the reasons why they have been able to live in peace with each other for so long.

Gyarados doesn't eat fish, let alone dead fish.

Why did it drift there?

Lin Xuan's question completely baffled Savage Bass. How would he know about such a thing? He had never died there, nor had he ever been there. After all, with his small frame, he could only survive in the outer circle of Lake Axew. If he really went there, he wouldn't even be enough to fill the gap between Gyarados's teeth.

Lin Xuan had expected the wild bass's reaction; after all, it was better to go and see for oneself than to expect a fish to know these things.

"Go there and see!"
