Pokémon: I picked up a reborn Eevee at the start of the game

Hopefully, I won't be so unlucky as to run into that this time...

As far as I can remember, that incident caused quite a bit of damage.

Ibrahimovic suddenly felt a little tired. In just half a year, Xia Chen's development trajectory was almost completely different from that of his previous life.

One minute he's running around to Guandu, the next he's in Beijing, and after a while he might travel to other regions.

Although I have the memories of the next ten years, the world is so big that it is impossible to remember everything.

Ibrahimovic sighed inwardly. He decided to just go with the flow on this trip.

…………

Three days later, Xia Chen left Beijing.

He originally wanted to stay a few more days to spend some more time with Minas and Hakron, since it might be more than half a year before he could stay in Beijing for an extended period of time again.

Unexpectedly, before Xia Chen could even bring up the idea of ​​leaving, Milos had already expressed his intention to part ways.

"You mean you want to leave here as soon as possible and improve your strength?" Xia Chen guessed.

"Fuwoo!"

Milotic nodded seriously, his eyes revealing determination.

Dragonair is Longyue's initial Pokémon and has been at the veteran level for a long time. Although Milotic has made rapid progress recently, it is still quite a distance away from Dragonair.

Elves have a much stronger admiration for the strong than humans, and Milotic's pride is particularly intense.

Perhaps that's why he's so eager?

So, the next morning, after solemnly bidding farewell to the Long family father and daughters and their spirit, Xia Chen embarked on his journey home.

In front of the Qianlong Gym, Long Yue touched Hakuryu, whose eyes were filled with reluctance, and comforted him, "He's working hard to catch up with you, and we can't fall behind!"

"Woo~"

Hakron looked away and nodded.

She could feel that the energy within her body was nearing the limits of evolution.

Next time we meet, I must present a completely new image and give Milos a surprise!

Chapter 117 What is Ralts Liu Hai's underworld?

Simulated World - Incredible Maze, in the Thorn Mountain.

Inside the dark and gloomy cave, an extremely fierce battle is taking place.

Ralts's small figure leaped and bounded across the rocky, uneven ground, dodging the psychic attacks from the Hypnotic Baku.

In a situation where both sides are almost exhausted, even an insignificant psychic force could become the final straw that breaks the opponent's back.

Behind the hypnotic tapir, a yellow figure was also quietly approaching.

However, compared to the agile and swift Ralts, his movements were as straightforward as a Slowpoke...

The hypnotic tapir naturally noticed this easy target. It suddenly turned around, and a beam of illusory light filled with a mesmerizing glow shot out, causing the yellow-skinned rat to fall to the ground.

Ralts glanced calmly at the fallen Pikachu, then unleashed its pent-up psychic power.

The Hypnotic, which had already been severely damaged, was unable to withstand the attack and followed in Pikachu's footsteps.

Phew, finally made it...

Looking at the Hypnotic Tapu lying on the ground, Ralts felt not only exhausted but also a strong sense of accomplishment.

To be honest, although this annoying elf with an elephant trunk had been stuck for a month, the sense of accomplishment I felt when I saw the Hypnotic Baku fall in front of me was much greater than all the previous simulated battles combined.

But then, he accidentally sacrificed his comrade again...

However, in battle, some sacrifices are always inevitable.

Ralts wasn't feeling sad at the moment. In these simulated worlds, she had already determined that this silly guy had nothing to do with Xia Chen.

Since it's a virtual world anyway, and you can revive, Ralts gradually stopped feeling emotional whenever she saw Pikachu recklessly rushing in to its doom.

…………

"End this simulated world."

Ralts silently recited this in his mind.

Although Ralts barely managed to defeat the Hypnotic Tapu and complete the mission to rescue the Azur Lane brothers, the progress of the Sims world could not be advanced without Pikachu, so Ralts naturally chose to end this journey.

[This world simulation has ended. The system rating is A. Please select your simulation reward.]

Option 1: Energy Level +3 (It may remain here forever; the choice is yours!)

[Option 2: Increase hypnosis hit rate by 20% (This is an ability that the Hypnotic Tapir is very proud of, which you obtained from it. A very tempting choice!)]

[Option 3: Universal Ability Fragment (With this, you only need two identical ability fragments to get a triple! How about that, is it a difficult choice?)]

Perhaps because I was stuck on the hypnotic tapir, the first three simulations all received a B grade or lower, so naturally, the rewards were mediocre.

Mastering the move [Synchronization Interference] and two Ralts Candies were all she gained.

When Ralts saw that the simulation rating given this time was a long-awaited A-rank, she knew that today's reward would be extraordinary.

As expected, apart from the still lackluster first reward, the latter two rewards were fantastic, befitting the reward for defeating the Hypnotic Baku boss!

Increase the success rate of hypnosis by 20%!

Another permanent ability boost since that meditation efficiency!

While hypnosis is not as versatile as meditation, which can be used in both daily life and competition, it can sometimes produce very good targeted effects.

Ralts knew that moves in this simulated world had a hit rate, and that the hit rate of Hypnosis was only a pitiful 60%.

A 20% increase is already quite considerable.

so...

"I choose option three!" Raltala made her choice without hesitation.

What I, Ralts, love to do most is say no to those self-righteous systems!

The universal ability fragment is a coveted reward, even if the hypnosis spell's hit rate is guaranteed to be 100%...

Okay, this is something I can consider.

However, a 10% improvement in hypnosis is far less significant than exchanging for those two abilities earlier.

So now all we need to do is wait for one of those two ability fragments to appear.

Hopefully that day isn't too far off...

------

"December 28th, cloudy. It's only been half a month since I left Zhijiang, and it feels like I have so much more to do... On the fifth day after returning to Zhijiang, I finally had time to open this [Monthly Journal]."

"I went back to school to report the results of the admissions competition to the principal, and took the opportunity to ask for a long leave until graduation. Then I was dragged into giving some kind of speech, and most of the day was gone."

"I barely got home and hadn't even settled in when Sister Qian dragged me away again because of some technical stuff involving energy cubes. Now, I haven't been home for three days straight..."

"However, once these minor issues are resolved, mass production can basically begin after the New Year. If all goes well, once the Milotic evolution experiment with the ten people in February is successful, it can be officially launched!"

"White Hole, a white tomorrow awaits us!"

"Finally, regarding the choice of travel destination, after much consideration, I decided to go to the Carlos region. The main reason is that almost every region has a dark organization, and I know a bit about the villains in the Carlos region, like the Flame Team."

"Although we don't know if their current goal is to become Thanos, it's better to be mentally prepared. If we encounter Vladari and his group, we can at least avoid them. But what if the villains in Galar and Padia are particularly ruthless? Until we find out more, it's best not to go..."

"In short, the road ahead is long, but the future is promising. Let's work hard in the new year!"

Xia Chen closed his laptop and collapsed onto the soft bed.

Does this mean "Go for it in the new year"?

Of course, it's just about slacking off for the last two days before the new year!

Xia Chen was perfectly justified in his decision to give up, and he had his reasons.

I've been playing battles my whole life, can't I at least enjoy myself a little?

Go back to sleep, go back to play!

…………

Thinking this, Xia Chen hugged Ralts, who was meditating beside him with the large spoon, and rubbed her small face, which was not even as big as his own palm.

"Lalu?"

Surrounded by a familiar aura, Ralts, who was immersed in meditation, raised her face and smiled warmly.

However, her sapphire blue hair still obscured her eyes, preventing Xia Chen from seeing Ralts's expression.

Looking at this well-behaved little cutie, Xia Chen suddenly remembered something: from the time Ralts was born until now, he didn't think he had ever seen her eyes...

As everyone knows, the areas under Ralts's bangs and under Mimikyu's skirt are the most mysterious places, and very few people have been able to explore them.

or?

Xia Chen's mischievous nature kicked in, and a bold idea suddenly popped into his mind.

He was always the kind of person who put his ideas into practice. Before Ralts could react, Xia Chen ruthlessly reached out and swiftly lifted Ralts' neat bangs.

Ralts was completely unguarded against Xia Chen, never imagining that her trainer would suddenly harbor such wicked intentions.

"Laru!"

With a gasp from Ralts, a pair of crystal-clear eyes were exposed to the air.

The owner of those eyes seemed never to have expected this to happen. The moment their eyes met Xia Chen's, they instinctively glanced away, their deer-like eyes filled with timidity and shyness.

The emotion in her eyes was quickly conveyed to her face, and Ralts's clean and pure white cheeks were already covered with a blush of shyness.

Coupled with her eyes, which looked like those of a startled fawn, Xia Chen suddenly felt a strange sense of guilt, and... a tiny bit of inexplicable pleasure?

…………

"Ralu..."

Ralts' soft, gentle voice awakened Xia Chen, who was experiencing complex emotions.

He hurriedly brushed Ralts's bangs aside, then awkwardly touched her head. "Ahem... she's still quite cute with her bangs up."
