Elf: I'm Just a Commentator

[It must be the skin I was planning to buy with real money!]

Lin Xuan looked at the excited Eevee and Little Dot with a helpless expression. These two guys hadn't even thought about it seriously, and they were already talking about spending money! Don't even think about spending a single penny in that stupid game for a month!

Lin Xuan didn't keep them in suspense for long. He stood up and stood next to Gyarados, coughed twice to clear his throat, and then spoke to Eevee and the others.

"Ahem, Gyarados will be your new little brother from now on, so remember to treat him well!"

"Dandan!"

"Booey!!!"

"How exactly should this waveguide power be guided?"

As darkness fell, Lin Xuan led Yibu and the others back to the shore of the lake. The climate there was much more pleasant, and if they walked a little further, they would find themselves in a dense forest.

Lin Xuan, on the other hand, led several elves back, pondering the question in her mind as she walked.

He wasn't idle while the little ones were training. Although he didn't go into the water, he kept activating the Aura, but without much success. Then he turned to look at Gallade.

How do you usually use your waveguide power?

But for this question, let alone Gallade, even Luo Guan could only give a very vague and idealistic answer—find the laws governing waveguide flow.

This one sentence is also a sentence passed down from generation to generation at Jinhui Martial Arts Academy. Luo Guan's teacher passed it on to him, and he passed it on to Lin Xuan, but Lin Xuan still cannot fully understand it to this day.

When Gallade heard Lin Xuan's question, it shook its head and a ball of energy blasts appeared in its hand. Although it was relatively weak and didn't have much power when used, it was clear that it could use it very easily.

Gallade stated that using Aura Sphere is the same as using any other move, or even simpler. After the Aura Sphere power within her body was revived, she could use it easily, and Aura Sphere is just one of its uses.

The biggest benefit is that it helps him sense the movements of the enemies around him. After all, using Gallade's special attack to use Aura Sphere is really not worth it. Ten Aura Spheres combined are probably not as effective as a single Holy Sword.

"Ugh, my head hurts!"

Lin Xuan scratched his head. So this is the difference between Pokémon and humans? Aura users are extremely rare among humans, but it is still very difficult to fully master the power of aura.

No, I can't think like that. I need to think positively. It must be because my Gallade is too talented. Yes, that must be it!

Lin Xuan hypnotized herself, and before she knew it, she had already left the "no man's land".

The area around the frozen lake is usually deserted except for passing tourists and fishermen; it's basically a "no man's land." Lin Xuan then looked up at the Gyarados.

"It's not very convenient for you to stay outside here. Let's go into the Poké Ball first."

Lin Xuan took out a Poké Ball from her backpack. Because of the suddenness of the situation, she hadn't brought a Luxury Ball. She would use this one for now and buy two more at the store to equip her Gyarados.

"Roar!"

But Gyarados didn't seem to like Lin Xuan's suggestion. It turned to look at Eevee and the others, indicating that they could stay outside.

"Can your physique compare to theirs?" Lin Xuan was speechless. "If I take you down the street later, I'm afraid we'll scare the passersby to death."

After saying that, he immediately realized it was wrong and added something else.

"No, if I were to bring you along, the first thing we'd do upon entering would be stop and questioned by the police. We might even get a cup of hot tea."

Hearing Lin Xuan's words, Gyarados knew that it was impossible to stay outside. Although it was somewhat unwilling, in order to stay by Lin Xuan's side, it turned around and pressed the button on the Poké Ball in Lin Xuan's hand.

Gyarados transformed into a red light and entered the Poké Ball, signifying that it had officially become Lin Xuan's Pokémon at that moment.

"Alright, let's get to town first, it's getting dark!"

Lin Xuan glanced at the sky and then spoke to Ibu and the others.

Lin Xuan and his group's destination was Icefield Town, the largest town in the vicinity, and it seemed to be named after the frozen lake. Although the town's climate was almost like spring all year round, it was still given this somewhat mismatched name.

Although it's a town, it has quite a complete range of facilities, including a Pokémon Center and shops for buying essential supplies.

After officially entering the town, Lin Xuan put away Gallade, Xiao Xi Xiaomi, and the others, leaving only Eevee and Little Point outside. Instead of going to the Pokémon Center first, they headed straight for the largest store in town.

"Luxury ball~ Luxury ball~ Found it! There really is one, which is a bit unexpected."

Looking at the luxurious ball packaging that was wrapped very tightly in her hand, Lin Xuan couldn't help but say with some surprise that it was not easy to buy such a luxury item in a small town. There were only two on the shelf here.

"Next up are the energy cubes!"

After catching Gyarados, his food became a problem. Lin Xuan's Energy Cube device was at the Jin Hui Gym, and he didn't have any suitable berries, so he had to make do with Gyarados for now.

Lin Xuan put the deluxe ball into the shopping cart and prepared to walk towards the energy cube section, but halfway there, she heard two people talking quietly from the shelf next door.

"Did you hear? This morning someone was passing by the frozen lake and got chased by a very strong ice rock monster!"

A young man seemed to have overheard some gossip and whispered to his companion, while the other person indeed looked puzzled.

"Seriously? Forget where this Pokémon came from, it's really something to be chased by an Ice Rock Monster... that's quite something, isn't it?"

The man became somewhat anxious after being questioned, fearing that the other party would not believe him, and quickly explained.

"It's absolutely true, and the person being chased seemed to be riding a fiery horse, but still couldn't outrun that ice rock monster."

Hearing this, Lin Xuan prepared to push her cart and leave. Wasn't this exactly what had happened to her that morning? After all, it wasn't far away, so it seemed normal for the news to reach here.

But just as Lin Xuan was about to push the cart away, she heard the other person's next words and immediately froze.

"And it's not just this one. Apparently, someone also saw a Wailord break through the ice and create a huge crater."

Lin Xuan, who was initially somewhat amused, was stunned upon hearing this.

Wailord? Besides Rockruff and Gyarados, are there other Pokémon from other regions here?

Lin Xuan suddenly realized that this matter seemed to be more serious than he had imagined. Without saying a word, he went to the Energy Cube section, grabbed a bag of Energy Cubes, went to pay, and ran out of the store.

Chapter 311 Nothing will happen!

After paying at the front desk and running out of the store, Lin Xuan immediately found a quiet place and called Luo Guan.

"Hey, teacher..."

Lin Xuan had barely opened her mouth, and before she could even say anything, Luo Guan interrupted her.

"No need to say anything, I just received the news here. It seems something happened at the Ice Lake. Pokémon that shouldn't be there have appeared out of nowhere. Fortunately, no one usually goes there, so there were no casualties."

Luo Guan breathed a sigh of relief when he got to this point. As the gym leader of Jinhui City, Icefield Town was also under his jurisdiction, so he couldn't help but worry about what had happened.

Most importantly, this whole thing is really strange.

"Actually... I think I know something."

After thinking for a moment, Lin Xuan spoke, and then told the story of Gyarados and Rockruff, as well as her own guess that there should be a passage connecting other places at the bottom of the ice lake.

"You've already encountered it? Well, that makes sense. Judging from the description of that ice rock monster, you're probably the only one who could defeat it."

Luo Guan was initially surprised, but then nodded.

"So how is it there now?"

"There's no major problem. It's already sealed off. It was fine before when there weren't many Pokémon, but now that a bunch of these dangerous creatures have appeared, it's impossible for anyone to get through there."

After saying this, Luo Guan seemed to drink a glass of water, and then continued:

"The information you provided is very useful; members of the Alliance have already gone there."

"Uh... what should I do then?"

Lin Xuan hesitated for a moment before speaking. After all, he came here to train, but now the area is completely blocked. How can he train at all?

"Keep training! Don't come back until you've mastered the power of waveguides."

Luo Guan said without any politeness.

Lin Xuan: ...

The way you're talking makes it sound like practicing waveguide power is such a simple thing.

"Then my training..."

"Go to the Pokémon Center; someone should already be waiting for you."

"Wait for me? What for?" Lin Xuan frowned slightly, somewhat confused, but had a premonition that it wasn't going to be anything good.

"Don't ask so many questions. You'll know when you get there. It won't do you any harm."

"Hmm... okay then." Lin Xuan nodded reluctantly, and then Luo Guan hung up the phone.

Lin Xuan looked up to confirm the direction, and then walked directly towards the Pokémon Center. Icefield Town is not that big, and the Pokémon Center is a very iconic building, so it is very easy to find.

The Pokémon Center in Iceborne Town is indeed not comparable to those in places like Celestial City, but it still has most of the necessary equipment.

As soon as Lin Xuan entered, he saw a middle-aged man in uniform looking around, seemingly searching for something. He immediately came to greet him when he entered the Pokémon Center.

The man walked up to Lin Xuan, grabbed her hand, and shook it vigorously up and down.

If it weren't for the smile on his face, Xiao Dian might have thought he was some kind of terrorist and was ready to fire a 100,000-volt shot at him.

"Hello, hello, you must be Lin Xuan, the student Master Luo was talking about!"

The man held Lin Xuan's hand as he spoke, leaving Lin Xuan speechless. For a moment, she thought she had met a fan and wondered if she could really have a fan of that age.

However, this also proves that he was indeed overthinking things.

"Ah! Yes, yes, yes."

Lin Xuan was still in a daze, but she nodded to confirm her identity.

The man didn't say much and simply handed Lin Xuan his identification.
