Elf: I'm Just a Commentator

Lin Xuan asked the giant steel snake directly, then pointed to the thing on its tail.

"Can you give me that? I'll trade you something."

After saying that, Lin Xuan had Ibu use its superpowers to retrieve the ores that had been temporarily thrown on the ground, which Xiao Xi and Xiaomi had just dug up along the way.

But in Lin Xuan's mind, no matter how precious these ores were, they could never compare to this super evolution stone.

However, even Lin Xuan scratched his head a little embarrassedly after saying that. After all, these things were originally dug out from here, and for Steelix, these things shouldn't be considered precious.

But Steelix nodded nonchalantly upon seeing the ores, even showing a hint of smugness, and casually glanced at the thing on its rear end.

Which one are you referring to?

Lin Xuan followed Steelix's gaze and saw the Mega Stone. She immediately nodded.

The Steelix had no interest in the rock stuck in its tail. It had tried to bite it but couldn't get it through, and it didn't look tasty at all, so it simply put it aside.

You know, for Pokémon that live off ores year-round, they often have a special urge to eat certain kinds of ores. But Steelix didn't even react to this rock. If it weren't so hard, Steelix would have thrown it away long ago.

He had already thrown it once, but it got stuck on the tail by accident, and he couldn't be bothered to deal with it anymore. After all, it was such a small thing, and he had even forgotten about it if Lin Xuan hadn't mentioned it.

However, Steelix also told Lin Xuan that it was difficult for him to retrieve the thing, and Lin Xuan would have to go get it himself.

"Small thing!"

Lin Xuan snapped her fingers and looked at Gallade to the side.

Chapter 292 Gallade, Mega Evolution!

"Gallade, do me a favor and remove that rock from Steelix's tail."

Lin Xuan spoke directly to Gallade, pointing in the direction of the Mega Stone.

Gallade nodded, then vanished instantly, reappearing on Steelix's tail.

Gallade bent down and removed the Mega Stone that was stuck in Steelix's body. It has to be said that it was stuck quite deep, and Gallade had to use a little force to remove it.

Moreover, Gallade believes that the stone is stuck on the surface of Steelix's body, and with its usual movements, it should frequently rub against the ground and rock walls. However, the surface of the Mega Stone is still very smooth, without even a scratch.

There was only some dust, but Gallade gently wiped it away with her palm and it disappeared, instantly becoming dazzling, like a gem.

Without keeping Lin Xuan waiting any longer, she quickly teleported back to his side and handed him the Mega Evolution Stone.

Lin Xuan's next sentence left Gallade somewhat confused.

Did you have any unusual reaction when you touched this stone?

"Elu?"

Gallade tilted its head, completely baffled as to why Lin Xuan was asking this, but quickly shook its head.

Although the stone's hardness surprised him somewhat, he didn't experience the special feeling Lin Xuan had just described.

"No, never mind, I'll try again when I get back."

Lin Xuan was somewhat disappointed. Naturally, he hoped that the Mega Evolution Stone would belong to Gallade, since Gallade was the only Pokémon in his team capable of Mega Evolution.

At the same time, he also thought that if this Mega Stone really was Gallade, Gallade might have a special reaction.

But so far, it hasn't appeared. However, Lin Xuan wasn't too disappointed. After all, this was his first time encountering a Mega Stone, and he didn't understand its special reactions. Perhaps it was just an ordinary stone before he officially came into contact with the Key Stone.

Lin Xuan had previously placed the keystone in the Jin Hui Dojo. After all, in Lin Xuan's opinion, apart from the League headquarters, there shouldn't be many places safer than the Jin Hui Dojo.

Even if she carried it with her, Lin Xuan felt it might not be as safe as being at the Jin Hui Dojo.

After all, Jinhui Dojo, an established dojo, is different from Jianghai City Dojo, which was established temporarily. Jianghai City Dojo only has one master, Zhong Mingyi, but Jinhui Dojo seems to have more than just Luo Guan as a master.

Lin Xuan decided to wait until he returned to the Jin Hui Gym before experimenting with Gallade to see if it was indeed his Mega Stone.

If it's natural, that would be best. If not... Lin Xuan is already quite satisfied to have obtained a Mega Evolution Stone here, and almost for free at that. He wouldn't complain, he's just a little disappointed.

However, while thinking about these things, Lin Xuan didn't forget to talk to the Steelix again.

Have you seen similar stones before?

Seeing the hopeful look in Lin Xuan's eyes, Steelix decisively shook its head, shattering his dream.

Steelix said he had never seen a similar stone before, because although it was not tasty, it was extremely hard, and if he had seen it before, he would definitely remember it.

Moreover, even this Mega Stone was something he accidentally dug up many years ago while digging a hole, so it's highly unlikely that there's a second one.

"That's it~"

Lin Xuan nodded, not exactly disappointed, as it was to be expected. Judging from the waveguide, the giant steel snake hadn't lied.

"Although it may not be enough, I'll give you these as a gift, consider it an exchange!"

Lin Xuan waved his hand, and Eevee immediately threw all the ore over, while Steelix looked at Lin Xuan with a somewhat incredulous expression.

"Gang?"

【real? 】

He originally thought Lin Xuan was just saying it casually. After all, he was usually quite lazy, and having lived here for so long, he had eaten quite a lot of the easy-to-dig ores in the vicinity. Recently, even if he wanted to find something to eat, it would take him a while. The stones that Lin Xuan threw out were definitely enough for him to eat for several days.

From Steelix's perspective, exchanging a useless rock for several days of lying down without moving is definitely a worthwhile deal.

Lin Xuan was unaware of this, otherwise she would have been even more amazed by Xiao Xi and Xiao Mi's incredible treasure-hunting abilities, as they were able to dig up so many stones in such a place.

"Of course, it's a pity I didn't bring anything with me, otherwise I could have given you some energy cubes."

Lin Xuan stroked his chin and said with some regret that he hadn't brought his most powerful tool for making friends—the Energy Cube—because of the rush this time. Otherwise, he could have given some to this giant Steelix.

"Let's see if there's a chance next time. If I come again, I'll bring you some."

Lin Xuan patted the giant steel snake's head, then stood up and said.

Meanwhile, the giant steel snake on the side was moved to tears. So, are there still good people in this world? The leader was about to go up to Lin Xuan, but Lin Xuan quickly stopped him.

Nonsense. With Steelix's weight, even a slight touch would send him straight to meet Arceus.

At the same time, Lin Xuan was thinking that it was better not to let Steelix know that the guy who defeated others with his fists was his teacher, so as to leave him with some beautiful fantasies.

Lin Xuan felt that she was a really good person!

After obtaining the Mega Stone from Steelix's tail, Lin Xuan left. Although there should be a lot of minerals here, in Lin Xuan's opinion, no amount of precious minerals could compare to the Mega Stone in his hand.

The most urgent thing now is to go back and test whether this is Gallade's Mega Stone.

"Is this what you sensed before?"

As Lin Xuan returned the way he came with the Mega Evolution Stone, he asked Xiao Xi and Xiaomi beside him.

After exchanging a glance, Xiao Xi and Xiao Mi quickly nodded. The thing that had elicited their special reaction earlier must have been the Mega Evolution Stone in Lin Xuan's hand.

"So you guys really don't have the 'pickup' trait?"

Lin Xuan couldn't help but wonder again: Could it be that he had made a mistake in his previous tests, and that Xiao Xi and Xiaomi were picking up the characteristics? But that couldn't be possible!

In the end, Lin Xuan could only attribute it to talent; these two little guys had great potential to become treasure-hunting rats!

It seems I can bring them along when I go to remote places in the future, and see if I can find any good stuff.

After they came up from underground, Lin Xuan had Eevee, Xiao Xi, and Xiaomi fill in the hole that Onix had dug earlier, otherwise it would be bad if someone else fell in.

Don't be fooled by how easily Lin Xuan went down; if it were someone else, falling without paying attention could easily have resulted in injury!

As for that Onix from before... I don't know where it went, but I hope it won't suffer the same fate as Steelix!

As for Steelix, just as Luo Guan said, this guy would run away as soon as he saw people, so how could he possibly come out and hurt people?

Moreover, this guy has lived here for so long, and nothing has ever happened on Qingming Mountain, which shows that he is honest to the extreme, and has been terrified of Luo Guan.

After filling in the pit, Lin Xuan quickly arrived at the station at the foot of the mountain and rushed back to Jinhui Dojo.

"Go back and try it right away!"

Lin Xuan strode into the dojo, drawing the attention of Yang Guo, who was idly standing to the side.

What's this guy rushing off to?

Lin Xuan has been at Jinhui Dojo for a week now, and she naturally knows that the "little brother" who pretended to be a newbie here is actually Lin Xuan. She doesn't even know why she has become a formal disciple of Jinhui Dojo.

This prompted her to visit Luo Guan, since according to the normal regulations, Lin Xuan was a coach at the Jianghai City Dojo and was even registered with the league. Becoming a disciple of the Jinhui Dojo seemed somewhat inappropriate.

But all he got in return was two perfunctory words from Luo Guan, indicating that Lin Xuan was not yet a formal disciple of Jinhui Martial Arts Academy.

As for Luo Guan's inner thoughts... I finally found someone who can use waveguide power, and you want to drive him away?

Let me tell you, it's impossible. He's determined to have Lin Xuan. Even Sun Siming can't change that!

So these past few days, besides the tasks assigned by the alliance, Luo Guan's main task has been to figure out how to keep Lin Xuan at Jinhui Dojo.

No, we can put the missions with the Alliance aside, but we absolutely have to find a way to keep Lin Xuan here!

Lin Xuan strode back to her dormitory and took out the keystone that she had been keeping in her closet.

Lin Xuan didn't take special care of the keystone; he just casually put it in his bag. After all, it looked like an ordinary large glass bead, and even if there was a thief, he probably wouldn't care.

Lin Xuan held the Mega Evolution Stone in his other hand, and the moment he got the Key Stone, he clearly felt the Key Stone in his hand suddenly light up, but the light quickly disappeared.

But Lin Xuan was certain that she wasn't mistaken; it must have been a special reaction caused by the close contact between the Key Stone and the Mega Stone.

Instead of handing the Key Stone to Gallade immediately, they went to choose a training room first.

If this Mega Stone really is Gallade, Mega Evolution might cause too much noise, and it's not appropriate to do it in the room.
