Trainer? I'm just an ordinary hot spring owner.

Chapter 187: How can we not welcome a newcomer!

Listening to Dr. Kukui's speech of great love, Jiang Cheng couldn't help scratching his head in distress.

If it was an outsider, Jiang Cheng would have just refused directly, just like Jiang Cheng’s former classmates, whom he never took seriously.

But, this is a child with a sincere heart, a teacher who spares no effort, and an absolutely good person.

For Professor Kukui, establishing an alliance does not bring him any benefit at all. He was already the professor of Alola before, and after establishing the alliance, he will still be the professor of Alola, without any change.

He worked so hard, all for the purpose of ensuring that Alola could gain its own alliance like other regions.

Such people are respectable, and such spirit is also what Jiang Cheng has always advocated in his education.

Just like the idea that the people of that hometown have always insisted on, it is better to have something yourself than to have it from your parents.

In particular, since coming to Alola, Jiang Cheng has received a lot of help from Professor Kukui. The current unlimited supply of free shampoo in the hot spring center is all thanks to the Rotom Illustrated Book he gave as a gift.

Many of the conveniences and capital that Jiang Cheng has enjoyed all along came from him, and he must be grateful to Dr. Kukui.

It is true that you want to live a peaceful life, but you cannot become a cold-blooded animal who is ungrateful just for the sake of a peaceful life. That would be putting the cart before the horse.

Ordinary daily life is a miracle in itself. While cherishing it, we don’t need to be overly demanding.

It is really difficult to say no to such a noble person.

"Having said that, if I'm away for a long time, my hot spring..." Jiang Cheng said with some embarrassment.

I am not a god like Dr. Kukui who can manage time to play four roles by myself. Although I am a lazy guy, running a hot spring involves my golden finger, so I still have to concentrate on it.

Dr. Kukui waved his hand and said, "Don't worry, there's no need to rush. There are still many things to deal with in building the alliance, and it won't be finished in a day or two. You can also take your time in touring the islands. We can start from the most basic. At present, Acerola seems to be in the quiet city of Marie, and we can conduct the first test with her."

Acerola....what was her test?

In the game, she will ask people to go to the old site of the Super Value Mart to take some supernatural photos. After the photos are taken, they have to defeat a dominant Mimikyu to pass the level.

I just don’t know if this challenge is still so hellish in reality.

Taking supernatural photos is really scary.

Hmm? It seems that Gastly is a ghost?

Mimikyu can also be solved by Flutterfat. When I think about it this way, it seems... there is some explanation?

However, Jiang Cheng did not agree immediately: "Dr. Kukui, I can participate in the island tour, but as you can see, I am really busy recently. In addition to healing the Mastiff Godfather, I also have to meet the Sirona champion and get familiar with the new member of the family. I really can't spare the time. How about this, when I finish the things at hand, we can discuss a time together and you can take me to participate?"

"Of course, of course, don't worry, kid, of course you have to finish all your own things before you do it. As long as you are willing to participate, I will be very happy."

Dr. Kukui does not force anyone to participate, and he has never thought of imposing his vision on others. Even if a person has to do his job as a doctor, run around to establish a league and get sponsorship, be a wrestling idol to raise funds, and be a teacher in the trainer school to train the next generation of Alola, he has never asked others to help, saying that it is all for your own good.

Even though this is indeed very important to Alola.

Once an alliance is established, it can be incorporated into the alliance system. In this way, Alola will be able to trade smoothly with other regions. Whether it is tourism or Alola's rich fruit resources due to its unique climate, there will be channels to sell them to the outside world. This is a good thing for every Alola person.

If it is a good thing, will it definitely be supported?

Not necessarily.

Alola is peaceful and traditional. The people are very satisfied with their current lives. The alliance and future that Professor Kukui talked about are illusory to them.

Now I have enough food and clothes, and I live a comfortable and free life. What's the good of establishing an alliance?

It is precisely because of this that the alliance building is almost entirely supported by Dr. Kukui’s personal charm. Everyone doesn’t understand what an alliance or a battle is, but since it is hosted by Dr. Kukui, I am willing to help.

It’s just because everyone, like Jiang Cheng, has received enthusiastic help from this doctor, and it’s just a sincere response to sincerity.

"Okay, let's make it this way. When you are free, just tell me and I will take you to the island tour. I believe that with your strength, you will definitely be favored by the island god!" Dr. Kukui was very pleased to receive the good news. He still had three tours, one research, one teaching activity and one speech to do, so he was ready to say goodbye.

"Ahaha... thank you for your good words." Jiang Cheng smiled awkwardly.

There is no need to ask for the favor of the island gods. I just want to live a peaceful life for two more days. The four island gods are either grumpy old men or cruel. Only Tapu Moo from Ula Ula Island is relatively normal. The reason why he is normal is that he is a lazy dog. He is still very grumpy when he wakes up. Who can serve these four masters?

After bidding farewell to Dr. Kukui, the hot spring center finally returned to its long-lost peace.

"Phew...I'm so tired." After letting out a long sigh, Jiang Cheng lay down on the recliner. Meeting acquaintances was more tiring than running a long distance.

"Jiang Cheng has become like an old man." Lilia looked at Jiang Cheng and covered her mouth and laughed.

Zhen Yi stared at Jiang Cheng blankly, floated in the air for a circle, looked at his dead look, stared at Jiang Cheng's waist for a while, and then stared at his face.

Jiang Cheng also noticed Zhen Yifa's somewhat burning gaze.

"What's wrong with Flutterhair?"

"Fast!" Mount elf!

"I'm a little tired now. Can we take a short break?" Jiang Cheng tried to negotiate with Zhen Yifa.

Zhen Yifa remained silent and continued to stare at Jiang Cheng.

Jiang Cheng, who had been lying down for a while, suddenly turned over and stood up: "It suddenly occurred to me that this new member has just arrived in our family. It seems a bit inconsistent with our family's glorious tradition to hold a welcome party without meeting him. Let's go! Let's meet outside first, and then come back to buy a cake to celebrate!"

Chapter 188: First meeting, Iron Snake

It is an unwritten rule in Jiang Cheng's family to hold a welcome party when a new member comes to the family.

At first, it was just a way for Jiang to coax his children, but gradually, it became a tradition.

Jiang Cheng didn't know much about Millerton, but it was much stronger than Professor Kukui. Dr. Kukui only knew that Jiang Cheng had obtained a guardian dragon of the paradise, and the dragon system basically meant a lower limit. As long as it was related to the dragon, the strength of this Pokémon would basically not be too low.

But what he didn't know was that what Jiang Cheng got was only a first-level god, and also the cover god of the ninth generation Zhuzi, and could be said to be the face elf of the entire Parthia region.

It is better to say that since the eighth generation, GF's elf design has begun to move further and further towards the supermodel path.

The ninth-generation cover god is also famous for his strength. As the cover god, his racial value of 670 can be said to be the result of all hard work and sweat.

As the third of the Eight Gods, Milton has high stats and good characteristics. With such a Pokémon in hand, Professor Kukui asked me to go on the Pilgrimage, which felt a bit like going to mess things up.

However, there is also a rule in the Pokémon world, that is, if the gap between the trainer and the Pokémon is too big, the Pokémon will become disobedient.

The most famous one is Ash's ungrateful Charizard, which is extremely rebellious. It sleeps on the battlefield, attacks trainers during games, and completely forgets that it was the man in front of it who pulled it back from the hands of the Grim Reaper in the heavy rain.

But can you say that a Pokémon doesn't know how to be grateful? Obviously not, because it is just a Pokémon, and repaying a favor is a human word.

Charizard was like this, would Milton have the same situation? After all, it was a first-level god, and he had never met it before. After releasing it, he had no idea how it would react. That was why Jiang Cheng chose to meet outside, so that even if Milton went crazy, at least the impact could be minimized.

They came to an empty platform, and Jiang Cheng took Zhenyifa and Erguilang with him. Of course, he couldn't tell them that we had to be wary of Millerton. He just said that we came out to meet our new members.

On the road, Flutterfa was very excited. He followed Jiang Cheng in the air while circling. He often flew far away with a sudden dash and then slowly floated back. He also liked to fly to a high place, dive down, and then pull up near the ground, as if he was recalling the feeling of riding the Land Shark before.

Arriving at a secluded open space, Jiang Cheng took out the Milton's Poké Ball, took a deep breath, and stretched out his arm: "Come out! Milton!"

A white light lit up, accompanied by the roar of a turbine engine. An elf with a black and purple background, a golden and white belly pattern, a graceful figure and a sense of technology appeared in front of Jiang Cheng. At this moment, a flash of lightning flashed in the sky, and the lightning-shaped mane on the sides of its temples continued to light up, and arcs of electricity began to light up on the ground around it.

In a dense forest on Ula'ula Island, Tapu Moo, who was sleeping soundly, suddenly woke up, turned over, and scared away many bird Pokémon perched on the big trees nearby. It jumped up on its bell-shaped single foot and quickly reached the top of a big tree, frowning as it looked at the place where lightning was flashing in the distance.

It felt a strong sense of threat in the atmosphere over there.

In the library of Mariejing City, Shirona, who was buried in a case, suddenly raised her head and looked in one direction. Just as she was about to take action, she saw Dr. Kukui waving at her: "Hey, Ms. Zhulan, I'm here to consult you again!"

Sirona smiled gently: "Dr. Kukui is really working hard, but now doesn't seem to be a suitable time."

"Oh, you mean that? It's okay. Those are the trainers on our island who are getting familiar with their own Pokémon," Dr. Kukui explained, waving his hand.

"Is there such a powerful trainer on Alola Island?" Shirona was a little surprised. That breath, that was the breath of a legendary beast. As a mythology scholar, she was very familiar with it. There was actually someone in Alola who could control a legendary beast?

"Of course, that kid is very talented and I have great confidence in him, so I want to establish the alliance as quickly as possible!"

Dr. Kukui followed Sirona's gaze and looked at the wall of the library, as if their eyes could see through the thick wall and see the scenery several kilometers away.

A trainer who can control legendary beasts sounds like a perfect footnote to the Four Heavenly Kings.

Jiang Cheng stood on the ground covered with golden arcs as thick as bowls, and looked into Millerton's black vertical pupils.

The system finally popped up relevant information about Millerton.

【Millarton】

Looking into Milton's eyes, Jiang Cheng finally understood why Milton was called the Iron Snake.

The vertical pupils with blue light in the darkness would really make people's scalp tingle if they looked into it for a long time. Fortunately, Jiang Cheng was often stared at by Zhen Yifa's scarlet blood-red vertical pupils, so he was basically immune to this kind of mental attack.

"Hello, Milton, nice to meet you. From today on, we will become a family. Please take care of me."

Millerton nodded, and his engine hummed.

The other party's attitude was quite friendly, and Jiang Cheng felt a little relieved. After thinking about it, he thought that Pokémon with introverted personalities seemed to prefer astringent taste. He rummaged through the warehouse and took out a purple fruit with all kinds of strange protrusions.

The strange fruit is a bit like a cocklebur. It has a low plant and grows on the roadside. The strange bumps on it are actually for the purpose of hanging the fruit on the elves on the roadside so that they can take the fruit away. It is a relatively unique sowing strategy. It tastes very astringent, which should suit Millerton's taste.

Miller's head moved forward, Jiang Cheng could feel a slight air flow across his fingers. This was Miller's sniffing. The mechanical shell prevented it from making any complex expressions. It blinked, as if it felt that the taste of the fruit in front of it was somewhat familiar, and Miller opened its mouth and swallowed it.

Golden light continued to illuminate from the throat like a pulsation.

"Gaao" I want to eat more.

Jiang Cheng heard Milton's voice, a slight roar with a metallic hum, very cool.

Chapter 189: Test Driving the Iron Snake

Millerton seemed to be very hungry. It seemed that Dr. Fortu was too afraid to contact it, so the child was very hungry.

It turns out that the calm look on Millerton's face before was not due to his stable personality, but because he was so hungry that he couldn't speak.

After eating about four or five exotic fruits in a row, Jiang Cheng stopped feeding him. Looking at the look in Millerton's eyes, he explained, "You can't eat too many fruits. We'll have a welcome party for you later. There will be many delicious foods at the welcome party. If you eat your fill now, it will be a pity."

Millerton's pupils turned upwards, and after thinking about it, it seemed to be true, and he nodded in agreement with Jiang Cheng's words.

Then it raised its head and looked around, looked in a certain direction, and then looked away.

An elf that is a little concerned, but it seems there is no need to care.

"Oh?" Need to defeat whom?

Millerton spoke briefly and to the point. He had some good feelings towards the little man in front of him who came up and fed him first. Unlike the unshaven guy who didn't give him food and looked like a non-human.

As the guardian dragon of the paradise, Milton had been living in the Great Hollow Zero, and his main responsibility was to fight against those paradoxical Pokémon that crossed the line.

For Millerton, life is to sleep in the goal, wake up to fight, eat something and sleep in the goal again.

But every time that bearded guy called him out, it was for a fight, and he could only have a meal with him occasionally.

"Millarton misunderstood. I called you out not because I needed you to defeat anyone." Jiang Cheng smiled and said, "I just want to... chat?"

Millerton tilted his head, not understanding the train of thought of the villain in front of him.

But it's rare to be able to eat enough, and there are humans who can understand what I say, so it's not impossible to chat with them.
