Elf: Starts with small diamonds, then mutates into Diancie.

As expected of a born Mythical Pokémon, Zeraora's move Quick Attack appeared silently in its move list overnight.

During this period, Su Hao simply fed Zeraora food and resources as usual, and Zeraora's size visibly increased to be close to the size shown in the Pokédex.

Let it grow for a while longer, and perhaps even more amazing results will emerge.

After finishing breakfast as usual, Su Hao packed up his camping gear and stuffed it all into his system space. Feeling inexplicably guilty, he spent some time building rapport with each of his Pokémon before continuing towards his destination with his backpack.

Today he is heading to the plains, where many dragon-type Pokémon live, accustomed to living on the ground and lacking the ability to fly, including the Motostow family.

However, there are only two routes from his location to the plains.

Firstly, for safety reasons, we should take a detour that takes almost half a day and pass through the nearest outpost.

Secondly, you can go directly through this small grove of trees in front of you.

It can be confirmed that only one Pokémon's Aura was detected in the forest. It seemed very powerful and would probably be a tough opponent.

Su Hao decided to stick to the usual routine: if he could win, he would fight; if he couldn't, he would run.

This is his specialty.

Chapter 528 You Can Be a Little Daring

In the plains, three figures—two men and one woman—stepped onto this land.

The three are the younger generation of the Dragon Clan: Long Ying, Long Sheng, and Long Xihua, all the same age.

It has been three years since they received their starter Pokémon.

In other words, they are currently second-year students at Longdu University.

Having not yet been exposed to the power struggles among high-level factions, they were, in essence, innocent and naive college students.

They took leave from work and traveled back from Longdu, located on the other side of the Delta Desert, because they wanted to watch their university's main competition.

Since there are still five days before the main competition begins, it's a good time to rest and settle down in our ancestral lands before heading to the plains, where the danger level is lowest, to see if there are any suitable Dragon-type Pokémon to catch.

"No matter when you look at it, the Sky Tower is still so magnificent and sacred..." Long Sheng, who was slightly thin, sighed.

Long Xihua gazed at the land designated as a forbidden zone in the distance. Her heart was shaken, and she couldn't help but ask the tall, handsome young man beside her, "Brother Ying, is there really a divine dragon slumbering beneath that land?"

"Since it is a divine dragon slumbering beneath the earth, its true form must not be the dragon god flying in the sky, right?"

Long Ying rubbed her head helplessly and laughed, "What nonsense are you talking about? The God of the Sky is still revered as 'Lord Dragon God' in the distant German Union."

"Eh—?" Long Xihua drew out her words, sighing in disappointment, muttering, "I think the God of the Sky is more suited to be associated with the Sky Tower..."

The three chatted as if they were taking a stroll, completely unaware that they were in a dangerous wilderness.

This is not carelessness, but rather their confidence in having lived on this land for so long.

There weren't any powerful dragon-type Pokémon in their location. The only one was a Sceptile, a Gym Leader-level Pokémon, located a few hundred meters away in a small grove leading to the lake island area.

The lizard king loves planting fruit trees, and as long as you don't provoke it or steal its fruit, it won't attack humans.

However... a deafening explosion erupted from within the forest, and two figures burst forth, followed by none other than the Lizard King!

The three turned their attention to a handsome young man who looked even younger than them, being chased by Sceptile, and a Lucario. The man and Lucario were also carrying several large, plump, and rare berries.

The three of them, including Lung Ying, were immediately stunned.

What's going on?

But they were only stunned for a moment. Judging from the person's appearance, he was probably not a member of the Dragon Clan.

Just as Lung Ying and Lung Sheng were about to use the Lizard King's power to capture the suspicious person who had broken into the dragon's lair.

Long Xihua, who had a good memory, stopped them and said uncertainly, "I remember... I heard from my elders that a young trial participant entered the Dragon's Lair these past few days and set an incredible record. Could it be him?"

Long Ying pondered for a moment, then hesitated and said, "That... the one who returned after using it for two hours and fifty minutes in the Delta Desert... I remember his name was Su Hao?"

Long Sheng asked in bewilderment, "Huh? Is that so?"

The two glanced at him speechlessly, then looked at Su Hao, who seemed to have also noticed the three of them but instantly changed his escape route, seemingly not intending to involve them.

"...He seems like a nice person."

Do you need help?

"Then let's help."

........

"Damn it, all we did was secretly pick a few of your Dragon Sun Fruits and Sand Scale Fruits, and you're acting so fierce, chasing us for so long!"

Holding a pile of high-quality, visually appealing tree fruits, Su Hao couldn't help but use his Aura Power and Everlasting Power to communicate with the Lizard King in turn.

However, this lizard king was completely unresponsive.

It not only ignored Su Hao's communication, but also stared intently at Su Hao and Lucario, as if it would not give up until it caught them.

Su Hao continued, "If I weren't in the wrong, I would have definitely exchanged a few blows with you!"

"Euro........"

Lucario glanced at Su Hao speechlessly. So he knew he was in the wrong.

As he ran, Su Hao realized he had already run out of the forest, but the Lizard King was still chasing him relentlessly, as if it no longer wanted to defend its territory.

What deep-seated grudge could this be...?

"Oro!"

Lucario's reminder echoed in Su Hao's mind through the waveguide, and Su Hao ran wildly while looking into the distance.

Huh, why are there three people standing there?

In an instant, Su Hao deduced that they were probably from the Dragon Taming Clan.

Since I can handle this lizard king myself, I'd better not drag them into it. I'll just have to change direction and go to a secluded place to reason with them.

Su Hao immediately turned around and ran away with Lucario.

However, before he had run halfway, Su Hao suddenly heard the loud shouts of the three members of the Yulong Clan.

Hey—you over there!

"Come with us, we have a way to help you get rid of this lizard king!"

Su Hao hesitated for a moment, but still chose to believe them, and then led Lucario and Sceptile in that direction.

Long Ying stopped shouting and breathed a sigh of relief when he saw Su Hao running towards them.

Next, all you need to do is take him to a nearby safe spot.

However... hiss, they only just noticed that this person and Lucario actually beat a Sceptile at the early stage of the Gym Leader level?

..........

"Safe Point"

Su Hao stared at the lizard king, who seemed reluctant to approach, and clicked his tongue in amazement: "Really not coming over?"

Long Ying held the few Dragon Sun Fruits that Su Hao had placed in his hand as a token of gratitude, and nodded slightly, saying, "This is a safe spot known only to our Dragon Taming Clan. It has the scent left by a powerful member of the clan, which was used by a Dragon-type Pokémon to create territory."

"That's why Sceptile doesn't dare to get close. After all, it's a wild Pokémon, and it doesn't dare to gamble on the risk of getting hurt."

Long Xihua stared wide-eyed at Su Hao, looking him up and down, and asked curiously, "How did you provoke that lizard king? As far as I know, it has such a good temper that it won't attack anyone who crosses its territory."

"Is it just because you picked a dozen or twenty fruits from these trees?"

Su Hao scratched the back of his head, somewhat embarrassed, and said, "Maybe... it's because it's going through menopause?"

In reality, he had Lucario use Teleport to pick berries and store them in the system space, practically emptying Sceptile's inventory...

Standing to the side, Long Shengjing, who had been carefully examining the tree fruits in his arms for a long time, said: "Wow, these Dragon Sun Fruits and Sand Scale Fruits are of really good quality. Are you really just giving them to us like this?"

Su Hao smiled and nodded, saying, "Consider this a thank you gift for helping me."

After all, I have a whole bunch of parentheses myself.

The three of them, including Lung Ying, exchanged glances, barely able to hide their joy.

With these rare and high-quality berries, their Pokémon training progress will be far ahead of others.

A short while later, the Sceptile, not daring to come in, could only leave reluctantly. Long Ying, seemingly feeling somewhat guilty for taking away the berries Su Hao had risked his life to collect, said, "...How about this, do you have any Dragon-type Pokémon you'd like to catch? We can take you to its distribution area?"

Su Hao came to the Dragon's Lair Trial because he was after Dragon-type Pokémon. After thinking it over, this was the only reward they could offer me to help.

As for the plains area, they still know the distribution of most Dragon-type Pokémon.

Unexpectedly, Su Hao's eyes lit up, and he asked, "Do you know if there are any motor lizards around here?"

This Pokémon loves to run around and has no fixed abode; the map it recorded did not have a clear location marked on it.

"Ah...Motor Lizard?" Long Xihua looked puzzled, not understanding why Su Hao wanted a Motor Lizard. She kindly advised, "We know the locations of a few Garchomp, Goodra, and Kommo-o in the plains. You can be bolder."

Dragon-type treasures are extremely rare to the outside world

Even quasi-gods are rare to those who grew up in the dragon's lair.

The Motor Lizard, a very common mount for them, offers absolutely no value for money compared to a pseudo-legendary mount.
