Pokémon: Starting as a Farmer Instead of a Trainer

Chapter 394 Going Home, Lelebagos Left Behind (Seeking Monthly Tickets)

In the lower level of Zone Zero, the surrounding scenery remained largely unchanged. Crystals covered the walls, crystalline flowers clung to them, and dazzling crystal particles were scattered all around, suggesting that not much time had passed.

Mingyou gazed at the location of the 4th Observatory not far away, where the crystals seemed to have increased even more. He then looked at Talebagos beside him and asked, "Are you sure this is still the same spacetime? Don't let me end up in some random place again."

"Bang~"

Talebagos swung its limbs, explaining that its power couldn't precisely lock onto a specific time for teleportation, whether sending the unfortunate soul back or grabbing it.

This can be considered a limitation of the energy of the Taijing crystal.

Take Millerton as an example... To put it simply, if we take it from a future morning to the present timeline, when it goes back, it might return to that evening, or the next day, or even a month later!

In short, it couldn't have been that morning, or even earlier, because even if you weren't there, time in the original spacetime would still be moving forward, just not too far off; this is a kind of movement within the rules.

"I don't quite understand..."

Mingyou shook her head. This is what happens when you haven't read books, but it's barely understandable. It means that this is a timeline similar to when she left, maybe only a month or two at most.

"I hope Dr. Futu is still here. If he's gone, then... um? Heh, maybe that's fate!"

Looking at Dr. Futu emerging from the 4th Observatory, just like when the two first met due to the unusual fluctuations in the Taijing energy, perhaps the gears of fate had already begun to turn from that moment...

After a short while, once things are over here, we will need to go back and wait for the results, for the moment when life and death are reversed and destiny is truly changed!

Then they left this space-time.

Mingyou released Keldeo from the Poké Ball. Talebagos had confirmed that the other party was indeed sent to this time and space by its companions from that destroyed future. The Tai Crystal energy on its body was obviously different and had been contaminated.

It's a pity they can no longer travel to that time and space. They tried several times but failed. Perhaps it was destroyed by the Grand Master Sinnoh after he noticed it... and then reborn after destruction.

Keldeo has no lingering attachment to that future. The souls of its three predecessors have been freed, and now all it wants to do is try its best to prevent that future from happening...

Afterwards, they went back to the past, but the Sky-Breaking Flame had no intention of returning. It had heard from the Crawling Wings that the manor had many ancient oranges, and it wanted to eat them. Even in the ancient times, ancient oranges were an extremely rare delicacy, let alone of high quality.

Finally, they traveled to the distant future, hundreds of millions of years later, and saw a new world created by humans and Pokémon who had rediscovered their purpose. There, they helped Milton deliver the takeout. Although it was still late, they didn't get any bad reviews. Everyone was friendly and understood after an apology.

At this moment, Milton revealed the real reason it was running a delivery business: it just wanted to find the familiar sandwiches from its memories, but these didn't seem to exist in this era, so it didn't want to stay here any longer!

"Miller~"

When they finally returned to their original timeline, Mingyou asked Talebagos a few questions, such as how to make Milerton stay forever.

"Plop..."

Talebagos shook its head, unaware of these things. It was just an innocent turtle, only interested in crawling, how could it know so much?

However, looking at the simple time machine on his wrist, a gift from Dr. Futu, he thought of Xiaoqing's Guleton. Those Pokémon sent over by the time machine seemed to have no restrictions... Perhaps he could make use of this. Hmm! He'd think about it when they got back!

He then asked a second question about the Pokémon summoned by the Sun, which seemed to have all fallen into a spacetime rift. Although Team Galactic was the villain, these Pokémon were controlled.

"Clatter~ Clatter~"

There's no need to worry about that. Pokémon controlled by the chip can't stay for long, and they should have already returned to their original era.

Mingyou nodded gently, and as the surroundings were shrouded in mist, she asked one last question: "About Milton and the others' first crossing..."

"Bang~"

Talebagos shook its head, saying it had nothing to do with it, but judging from the faint traces it sensed, it was the Talebagos from your world that caused the effect... which should be what you call the time machine.

Now the truth is finally clear: it was indeed caused by a malfunction in the time machine system. Mingyou's doubts have all been resolved, and she can finally go back in peace...

As the fog dissipated, a chill swept over them. It seemed like a long time had passed. When everyone opened their eyes, a blinding white light flashed, and everything in the distance was covered in white snow. Only the Crystal Pool, due to the high temperature generated by the volcanic gas leak, was not covered by the snow.

"Are you really... back?"

Peony asked uncertainly, genuinely worried that the other timeline had been disrupted.

Mingyou withdrew his gaze. Although he had let Talebagos take him for a long time, as long as he connected to the internet, he could return here at the same time as everyone else.

He then took out his Rotom phone, made a few simple adjustments, and connected to the network in this timeline. He smiled and said softly, "We are indeed back. It's December 26th now, exactly 2:30 pm. Christmas just passed yesterday, and the New Year is just a few days away, so we only disappeared from this timeline for a little over two months."

"Oh no? It's been so long... My mom must be worried sick! This is terrible!"

Xiaoqing immediately became anxious and took out her phone to let Rotom know she was safe. Peony did the same. Nemo, who always did things her own way, didn't care about this. Only Pipa looked around. Although he had figured out the answer he wanted to know, it seemed that something was still missing.

Bai Leiya looked at Tai Le Bagos next to Ming You with burning eyes, still hoping that the other party could let her study the turtle... But it seems that she can only try to get closer to him first.

At this moment, Naruto noticed that the Pokémon living in the Crystal Pool had all returned. Sure enough, they had been affected and transported to other eras.

but……

He seemed to suddenly realize something and instantly became alert. Sure enough, the pool water suddenly burst open, and warm water splashed everywhere. The Milotic that had attacked them before jumped out at this moment, along with the Glowing Flower!

"You're still here!"

Mingyou was speechless for a moment, but at that instant, the body of the Talebagos beside him shone with light and transformed into the form of Taijing once again, hovering in mid-air.

"Bang!"

A dazzling light burst forth, and the two Pokémon that had been full of hostility instantly fell silent. Milotic glanced around and then disappeared into the Crystal Pool, leaving only the Crystal Flower still there.

From the cries of the Talebages just now, Mingyou could barely understand that the Milotic seemed to be the Pokémon guarding the Crystal Pool, and it had overreacted because of the overlap between the two timelines in the Crystal Pool.

As for this Crystal Flower, it seems to be a Pokémon that was brought up from deep underground after a volcanic eruption many years ago. Its ability to use Astral Crystals is the best proof of this, and it is also protecting this place.

"I see... It turns out it was Team Galactic's problem after all. The misunderstanding is cleared up now."

Mingyou chuckled helplessly. Now that the misunderstanding was cleared up, he only hoped that the two Pokémon would stop attacking tourists at the Crystal Pool indiscriminately in the future, and that the phenomenon of overlapping time and space would not happen again.

Crystal Flower ignored him and quickly disappeared underground, leaving behind a white crystal that shone with dazzling light. Bai Leiya's attention was instantly drawn to it, but Mingyou was one step ahead.

Because he had seen this thing in the Void of Zero, under Bai Leiya's unwilling gaze, he put it into his backpack and said softly, "This is a complete star crystal, which may be good research material."

"That's terrible..."

Bai Leiya crossed her arms, but the other party wasn't buying it. She should think of another way. She heard that the other party's girlfriend was her colleague.

"But you guys should be leaving now, right? In a couple of days, it'll be hard to buy plane tickets here. Just keep in touch in the group chat when you get back."

Mingyou looked at everyone and kindly reminded them.

Only after a moment's realization did the group realize that, after bidding him a temporary farewell, they were eager to return home and left the Crystal Pool one after another. This was the first time they had been away from home for so long.

As Papa was leaving, Mingyou smiled knowingly and deliberately called him back.

"etc."

"Hmm? Is there anything else?"

"No... I just hope you remember to go home and visit after you get back. Yeah, don't be too surprised."

"???"

Pipa looked puzzled, not understanding what he was up to, but he immediately followed the group. They could still catch their flight tonight, so they couldn't afford to be delayed for too long.

After everyone had left, Mingyou stood alone by the crystal pool, sighed softly, looked at Talebagos beside her, and asked, "And you?"

"Bang~"

Talebagos shook its head. Having finally woken up from its slumber and experienced so much, it didn't want to go back. It just wanted to crawl around all day.

It means I want to stay here.

It never imagined that its unconscious plea for help would actually lead to a rescue that transcends time and space.

There is absolutely no need for a reason to lend a helping hand to someone in distress!

So it really likes this human.

I want them to stay by my side!

"Okay, I understand! Please take care of me from now on, but let's go home now~"

Mingyou smiled and picked it up, looking in the direction of the manor. Blueberry Academy should be on holiday now, which means Xiaozhao should be back too. It's a pity she couldn't pick her up right away.

He considered calling to tell them he was back, but after some thought, he decided to go home directly to check on them…

"Let's go!"

"Miller!"
