Elf: I'm Just a Commentator

"What's that look in your eyes?"

Bai Yao felt that Lin Xuan's gaze was a bit off. No, this guy's gaze towards her had never been kind.

"It's nothing, just some reflections."

Bai Yao: ? ? ?

After Lin Xuan and his friends dealt with all the Pokémon, Slowking finally reappeared.

Slowking floated down from mid-air. He had been hiding there all along, but he was using his superpowers so no one could sense him.

The only ones I could sense were Eevee and Lin – when they were battling using Aura, Eevee's perception was greatly enhanced, otherwise I probably wouldn't have been able to detect them.

Slowpoke hid himself too well.

"So you're making us split into two teams..."

Lin Xuan seemed to have a vague guess, so her lips twitched, but she still wanted to confirm with Dazed King.

These two guys...could they really be that cunning?

However, the final answer was exactly the same as what Lin Xuan had imagined.

Zhong Ming said that if you stay together, these guys won't pose any threat to you at all; you'll have to separate. These are the only Water-type Pokémon you have here.

Bai Yao: ...

Cheng Si: ...

Ryusei: ...

Everyone was speechless to varying degrees. Was it really just to trick them?

But there must be some purpose in doing this, right? It can't be that you're just trying to scam them.

"What about them over there..."

Lin Xuan tried asking.

[Similar to this place, the Pokémon's strength is also about the same.]

Slowking replied in this way, while Lin Xuan still had some doubts about these Pokémon.

That's why these guys would attack me directly.

Even if some Pokémon have bad tempers, like Gyarados, not all Pokémon are grumpy, right? Charging straight at him is a bit absurd; Lin Xuan has never encountered such a situation before.

Many of these Pokémon even had a rather docile nature, but at this moment they also became extremely irritable, which seemed somewhat unbelievable.

Even the dazed king couldn't give Lin Xuan an answer to this question, because even he didn't know the reason.

[I don't know. There were more Pokémon here before, and they were all extremely aggressive. The strongest ones were dealt with by the League a long time ago, leaving only this group. Otherwise, even we wouldn't dare to come here.]

The "we" that Daidaiwang is referring to here is clearly not Lin Xuan and the others, but rather himself and Zhong Mingyi.

This is quite alarming. It means that there were originally some five-star Pokémon here, and definitely more than one, but the League had already cleared them out beforehand, otherwise Lin Xuan and the others wouldn't have been able to get here.

If there is only one five-star Pokémon, unless it is like Luo Guan's Lucario, it is unlikely to stop Zhong Mingyi's progress.

Even among master-level trainers, he's no longer among the weakest.

"So there's one more place?"

Yes, the place Zhong Mingyi and his group went to was similar; it had been requested to be cleared out.

"So why did you send us here?"

Ask your elves how they feel!

"What do you mean?"

Upon hearing Slowking's words, everyone present was taken aback, and then turned to look at their Pokémon.

Lin Xuan looked at Eevee first, because Eevee has psychic powers and the ability to sense danger. In terms of strength, it may not be the strongest among them, but in terms of perception, it is definitely the strongest.

So Lin Xuan's first question to her was whether she had any special feelings.

However, Eevee's reaction to hearing Slowking's voice was similar to Lin Xuan's; they were all a bit confused and couldn't figure out what special changes had occurred.

However, urged by Lin Xuan, he quickly checked his own body and it seemed... there was indeed a slight difference.

"What's the difference?"

Lin Xuan quickly pressed for an answer.

Although Ibrahimovic was chased quite badly in the battle just now, he didn't actually have much contact with his opponent, so he wasn't injured.

However, he also expended a lot of energy, as he was constantly using his superpowers to thwart his opponents.

At this moment, Eevee could also feel that his stamina and even his psychic abilities were recovering faster than usual, and he didn't feel as tired as he usually did after a battle.

If Slowking hadn't pointed it out, I wouldn't have noticed it, but now that I'm paying close attention, the changes are indeed quite significant. Eevee even glanced at Lin Xuan, and the meaning behind it was quite clear.

Don't you also have Aura power? If we round it up, you're practically a Pokémon, why don't you try it yourself?

After receiving a signal from Eevee, Lin Xuan checked his waveguide with some confusion. The recovery speed was indeed much faster than before, but why didn't he feel anything?

After glancing around, Bai Yao and the others had also asked their Pokémon, and they all had similar situations.

It wasn't just the speed of stamina recovery that increased; even the speed at which Pokémon recovered from injuries also improved. Not long after each of the Pokémon consumed an Energy Cube, they felt that their stamina had almost fully recovered. It's worth noting that while Energy Cubes are magical, they shouldn't have such an effect.

So it's quite obvious that it's a problem with the special environment here.

Then Slowking explained to everyone.

This place is indeed very special. After each of those tsunamis, a special energy field exists in this space, which can be considered a great tonic for Pokémon.

Therefore, Zhong Mingyi also suspected that the Pokémon here could grow to this level because of the environment. Otherwise, how could so many powerful Pokémon gather here at the same time?

This overly comfortable environment meant that these Pokémon didn't have much experience battling other Pokémon, so despite their strength, it wasn't fully demonstrated in the battle just now.

Otherwise, Lin Xuan and his group wouldn't have been able to resolve the issue so easily.

Moreover, according to Dadawang, this situation does not happen often; it usually occurs once a month. It was originally estimated to happen in three days, but it happened earlier than expected.

Fortunately, they arrived after Long Xing and the others, so they were still in time.

"So this battle..."

Lin Xuan asked with some doubt.

Zhong Mingyi just wanted you to experience the environment here.

Slowking said this, pausing briefly afterward before adding:

He didn't intend for you to get beaten up.

Lin Xuan: ...

Isn't this a bit like you're trying to hide something obvious? Looking at Dazed King's honest expression, Lin Xuan felt that this guy was definitely cunning and had come here to trick Zhong Mingyi.

Sure enough, after hearing what Daidaiwang said, Bai Yao and the others' faces darkened. They would remember this grudge!

"What about here?"

This is an excellent training ground; time is limited, so make the most of it!

Chapter 378 The Rise of Gyarados?

Slowking is right, this is indeed an excellent training ground, especially for Water-type Pokémon, it's practically a legendary holy land.

So after Slowking told them to train on their own, Lin Xuan immediately released Gyarados from its Poké Ball.

"Roar!"

After appearing, Gyarados let out a long roar towards the sky, looking quite domineering, until it saw a group of powerful Pokémon on the field watching it, and there seemed to be quite a few Water-type Pokémon lying on the side.

Oh dear, he even has an older brother from his own clan?

Moreover, it looked much stronger than itself. Seeing the charred black wounds on the Gyarados's body, the Gyarados immediately judged that it was caused by the small spot, without even thinking about it.

After all, who hasn't been electrocuted by a little one?

So after seeing this, Gyarados silently shut its mouth and moved closer to Lin Xuan.

So what's going on here?

Gyarados had just woken up from its Poké Ball and was not yet aware of what had happened.

"It's alright, just train hard here, you should be able to make a lot of progress."

Lin Xuan smiled and shook his head, while also releasing Xiao Xi and Xiaomi. The moment Xiao Xi came out, she stared at the bottom of the lake and immediately discovered a large number of sapphires hidden there.

It's safe to say that the title of "treasure-hunting rat" is practically well-deserved for Xiao Xi and Xiaomi. Why are these two always able to find good things so quickly?

However, Lin Xuan quickly pulled them both back.

“Those stones can’t be dug out; once they’re dug out, they’ll lose their effectiveness. We can only leave them as they are now.”

This is what Dazed King told them. Zhong Mingyi had tried to dig up a sapphire before, but the energy inside disappeared quickly after it was dug out.

That makes sense. If it weren't for this reason, these gems would probably have been dug up by the Alliance long ago. How could they still be here now?

"Sweat~"

Xiao Xi and Xiaomi sighed in disappointment. They had thought they had found another treasure, but soon the two little ones' ears twitched, and after exchanging a glance, they started digging downwards, leaving Lin Xuan stunned.
