Why is my Pokémon acting a little weird?

Besides, what if Mei and Mitsuki are added?

He was genuinely afraid, afraid that after telling Lillie and the others about these things, they would have strange thoughts about him. Although there were precedents of humans and Pokémon developing feelings in the Pokémon world, there were probably many people who couldn't accept such a thing.

"...Let me think about it first."

Qiao Ran planned to think about it first and prepare himself mentally. If he wanted to be honest, it would be better to find a more appropriate time to do so.

"It's better to rest for a while tonight."

Qiao Ran took a few steps forward and walked towards the big bed in the middle of the cave very skillfully. Then, amid the exclamations of Diancie and Vulpix, Qiao Ran lay down between the two of them.

"Ah... so soft and comfortable."

Qiao Ran stretched out his body comfortably. Unlike sleeping bags in the wild, the environment here was definitely much better, not to mention...

Qiao Ran looked to the side and saw Dianxi's slightly drunk face.

Qiao Ran could even feel her breathing clearly.

"Master...how long can you stay tonight?"

"How long?"

On the other side, Vulpix also tightly wrapped around his waist, as if using some fixed joint technique.

It seems... these two guys don't want me to leave...

Qiao Ran's heart trembled. Was he really going to die here tonight?

P.S. Let me tell you a little bit about the author's recent situation. . The irregular updates are not my intention, but I am really busy with work.

Lately, I've been working on the programming and special effects for a Chinese-style AVG game. I'm the only programmer on the team, so sometimes things can get quite overwhelming. Furthermore, the producer and investors have high quality requirements, so the time commitment can be extended accordingly.

Finally, regarding this book, I can only try my best to update it and try not to leave any regrets. After I am no longer a worker (cough), maybe you will be able to see the independent game I made (laughs).

Chapter 260 256 [Black Shadow]

"It's over, it's over, I overslept...!"

The next morning, Qiao Ran woke up in a panic, but soon he suddenly realized that what he should be most afraid of was not the fact of "oversleeping", but something else.

"Wait...why does it feel like..."

Qiao Ran looked to his left, then to his right. One had long white hair, the other had long black and purple hair. Although they looked very different, they both had warm and sweet smiles on their faces.

"Master...didn't lie to us..."

"Very good……"

Even when they fell asleep, they were still talking happily in their dreams, as if they were dreaming about something happy.

"..."

The corner of Qiao Ran's mouth twitched. He seemed to remember what happened last night, and he gradually understood everything.

However, in order to preserve the healthy and beautiful tone of this world, he decided not to recall the details.

He climbed out of the bed carefully, trying his best not to attract other people's attention. It wasn't that he didn't want to stay here a little longer, but Qiao Ran understood that if he stayed any longer, things "outside" might become difficult to deal with.

"……Owner."

When Qiao Ran came out of the cave, the first thing he saw was a blue-haired girl wearing a maid outfit.

——Suicune.

"Don't worry, Master. I've driven away all the Pokémon that passed by here at night."

Looking at the water king in front of him, whose eyes were dim but he was dedicated to his duties, Qiao Ran's mouth twitched again, and he could only give a stiff answer: "Ah... um, um."

The gods have been driven away, so what about you?

You didn't stay here all night, did you?

Qiao Ran was no longer able to complain about these strange Pokémon of his. He just wanted to leave this place that was causing him social death and return to the real world.

"What...what's wrong? Why are you looking at me like that?"

Qiao Ran stretched out his hand

, ready to call Rotom back to the real world, but the gaze of Suicune beside him made him feel creepy.

"...I'm sorry, Master."

Suicune seemed to realize that her behavior was a bit rude and quickly lowered her head. However, through her long hair, Qiao Ran could still see that her face was slightly red.

"I just didn't expect that Vulpix and Diancie, who were usually so quiet, would actually make..."

"Stop talking, stop talking!" Qiao Ran was startled and quickly covered her mouth, then disappeared in the Pokémon Land.

Only Suicune, with a confused look on his face, was left standing there.

She looked at the place where Qiao Ran disappeared, and then looked at the location of the cave.

A bold idea suddenly came to her mind.

How about... going in and taking a look?

--------------------------------

"The master just went to find food, Loto. He will be back soon, Loto."

Lillie: "..."

In the real world, on the grass by the river.

Rotom, floating in the air, kept saying things like "Qiao Ran is fine, he just went out to find food", while Lillie, on the other side, sat on a rock nearby, fiddling with her hair, not saying a word.

Lillie wasn't the type of girl to lose her temper easily or show her emotions, but it was obvious that she was definitely angry.

"Oops……"

Qiao Ran came to the real world and observed the situation for a while while tugging at the grass. Fortunately, Rotom did not teleport him directly to Lillie, but deliberately floated a little further away before opening the portal. However... the current situation was also quite unfavorable for Qiao Ran.

Moreover, the reason Rotom made up was quite ridiculous. He had nothing in his hands right now, so how could he look like he was looking for food?

"There's no other way. I'll just go for it."

Qiao Ran thought that it was not a good idea to continue dragging it out. It would be better to get out early so that Lillie could feel at ease.

However, just as Qiao Ran was thinking this, an accident suddenly happened in front of him.

——A black shadow passed through the sky and stayed in mid-air.

"Wait, what is that...?"

The black shadow was wrapped in a black mist, but the opponent's movements seemed to be gathering some energy. Through the direction of the energy, Qiao Ran could tell at a glance where the opponent wanted to attack.

Its target was not Qiao Ran, but something more obvious - Liliae who was sitting on the river bank!

"careful!"

At this point, Qiao Ran couldn't care less and could only rush out from the bushes in one step, while communicating with Rotom and pulling out Cang Xiang's long sword from the space beside him.

"boom!!"

Before anyone could react, Qiao Ran had already raised his sword and faced the beam of light that was already gushing out.

The fierce beam split in two under the slash of the holy sword, shielding Lillie and Rotom in the center. But even so, the split beam still bombarded the ground, creating deep craters one after another.

"What a powerful force!"

Qiao Ran continued to pour Evergreen's power into the sword before slowly stabilizing his breath. The power of this sword was actually not much worse than the skills released by the Gigantamax Pokémon that Qiao Ran had encountered in Galar before!

What the hell is it?

Is there such a powerful existence in this world?

Qiao Ran gritted his teeth and finally held on to the end. The opponent's light cannon gradually weakened and disappeared into the air.

"What on earth is...?!"

Qiao Ran stuck his sword into the ground a little tiredly and gasped. Looking at the flattened land around him and Lillie behind him with a look of surprise and fear on her face, Qiao Ran still felt a little scared.

"Ypeltal! Tanabata Bluebird!"

Qiao Ran threw out the Poké Ball and released his Pokémon just in case. For some reason, he did not send Diancie and the others this time.

"boom!!!"

However, just after Qiao Ran released his Pokémon, a black shadow once again passed through the sky.

A fiery eagle, swathed in flames, clashed with the mist-shrouded shadow like a sharp sword piercing the sky. Meanwhile, a silver-glowing armored bird appeared, and atop it stood a woman with long hair and a somewhat lazy expression.

"Unrelated trainers, please leave immediately. This place is very dangerous!"

Her voice was different from her appearance, full of anxiety and warning. However, when she stared at Qiao Ran seriously for a while, her expression changed slightly.

"Huh? Is that you?"

"...Long time no see, Yi...Sister Ruoyun."

——The Flying King, Yi Ruoyun.

Qiao Ran did not expect to meet the Flying King here. He still remembered the last time they met each other, which was when he had just started traveling, and it was also the first time he met Suicune.

However, now is obviously not a good time to reminisce about the past, and Qiao Ran has never let that strange black shadow out of his sight.

"what happened?"

"Don't ask so many questions!"

Yi Ruoyun's tone became more and more urgent.

"Hangzhou has been attacked. Novice trainers like you can't help much. Just leave. The farther away, the better!"

"...!"

Qiao Ran's heart skipped a beat, and the bad premonition became stronger and stronger. Hangzhou City... was under attack?

In the end what happened?

He looked at the black shadow wrapped in black mist. With his understanding of Pokémon and the slightly revealed outline when the other party made movements, he seemed to slowly understand... something.

"Qiao Ran...could that be..."

Liliae, who was behind Qiao Ran, also slowly stood up and reached out to grab Qiao Ran's shoulders.

As a researcher of the Pokémon world, Lillie also recognized the possible true appearance of the black shadow, not to mention that they had already seen traces of these things in the ruins before.

"Yes, that's probably it."

Qiao Ran tightened his grip on the sword in his hand, and his expression began to become extremely serious and earnest.

"The world-destroying bug... Genesect!"

"How could such a thing appear here!"

Chapter 261 257 [Genesect]

Genesect - a super ancient insect Pokémon. In that era, they were the most powerful and terrifying hunters.

Moreover, after being transformed by the evil organization in the Unova region of the Pokémon world, Genesect even had a modern cannon installed on its back, and its combat capability was once again greatly improved.

In the Pokémon game, their racial stats are as high as 600 points, and they are classified as mythical Pokémon. No matter how you look at it, they are an extremely formidable opponent.

Of course, this is not the most frightening thing about Genesect. You have to know that this is a Pokémon that lives and moves in groups. They are like wolves on the hunt. They never fight alone.

——In other words, as long as one Genesect appears, a group of Genesects will not be far away!

"Not good."

Sure enough, just as Qiao Ran was thinking this, several black shadows appeared in the sky again, surrounding Yi Ruoyun and her Pokémon.

"……What!"

Yi Ruoyun's lazy expression also changed slightly. What exactly are these things? This posture... Are they treating her, the king of heaven, as prey?

"You guys run!"

Yi Ruoyun stretched out her hand and released all her remaining Pokémon at once. At the same time, she did not forget to remind Qiao Ran and others to leave quickly. After all, even she could not figure out the other party's background. In the current situation, protecting other people was more important.

Qiao Ran glanced at Yi Ruoyun, nodded slightly, and pulled Liliae to the woods nearby.

"...Rotom, send Liliae away first."

"What about you?" Lillie was not someone who couldn't understand the situation. The power of the beam of light just now still remained in her mind. These Pokémon were just like the "strange beasts" in the Aether Foundation. They would not care about any rules.
