"The Rada Riot. I heard some legends about this when I was a kid. I never thought it would actually happen after so long."
Tang Shijie's words immediately aroused Su Yuan's interest.
"Uncle Tang, can you tell me what the legend is?"
"Hey, there's nothing much to say. These are all passed down by the older generation."
Tang Shijie leaned back in his chair and recalled some distant memories and said.
"It's just a few words. Legend has it that in the past, Dali was a wealthy place, so wealthy that it was even envied by the gods. One day, people woke up to find rats everywhere, gnawing at people's granaries and eating their food.
People went forward to drive them away, but these rats were not afraid of people. Instead, they picked up pictures to scare people. Some people were even eaten by rats. "
Listening to what Tang Shijie said, Tang Wenxiu interrupted.
"Isn't this the same as what happened to us today? Those little Rada came in groups and were not afraid of people at all. They gnawed down all the trees on the road."
Su Yuan asked curiously.
"Uncle Tang, what happened to the rest of the legend? Were the rats dealt with?"
"Of course it has been solved, otherwise there would not be this legend circulating."
Tang Shijie continued.
"Legend has it that a black divine cat later emerged from the deep mountains. Its body was pitch black with shining eyes. The divine cat felt sorry for the people who were suffering from the plague of rats, so it used its divine power to drive away the rats.
From then on, in order to commemorate the divine cat, people used mud to make statues of the divine cat, and then burned them into pottery tiles and placed them on the roofs of their homes, commemorating the divine cat while praying for peace.
Zhuang Yan asked curiously, stroking his chin.
"Uncle Tang, the divine cat you are talking about is the auspicious tile cat in the legend of Yun Province."
"Hey, little brother Zhuang Yan, you actually knew that."
Tang Shijie was a little surprised. He didn't expect that this legend, which was not well known among local young people, was actually known by a young man from another province.
Zhuang Yan smiled.
"I know a little bit. I'm used to looking up the local food habits, culture and landscape on the Internet before going to a new place. I also happened to see the tile cat when I was looking up information."
"You are a really good young man. This is a good habit. Make a plan and look up strategies before doing anything. This way you can be prepared for any eventuality."
Tang Shijie admired Zhuang Yan even more.
Su Yuan suddenly spoke.
"Do you think this tile cat is also a Pokémon?"
After all, based on previous experience of playing Pokémon games, in the Pokémon world, anything that has anything to do with legends and myths basically has a Pokémon behind it.
Donghuang has a vast territory and a long history, and there are so many myths and legends handed down. Perhaps in the past, Su Yuan might have just thought it was just a legend and laughed it off. But now it is different. With the existence of Pokémon, the prototypes behind those myths and legends are very likely to be some mysterious Pokémon.
"Who knows, maybe, after all, no one has ever seen a real tile cat."
"Hey, the shape of this tile cat is so exaggerated."
Tang Wenxiu exclaimed and handed the phone to Su Yuan and Zhuang Yan. The two took a look and saw a photo of a ceramic cat. The cat was baring its teeth and claws, which was indeed a bit exaggerated.
Su Yuan smiled.
“It’s indeed a bit exaggerated, but this is also an old tradition. After all, whether it’s a statue or a mural that has been handed down, as long as it’s related to belief in mythology, there is a certain amount of exaggeration in it.
After all, how does the saying go, only those who look fierce and exaggerated can protect the house. "
As they chatted and laughed, the car drove towards the Tang family's big villa.
On the top of the building, a pair of bright eyes looked into the distance.
At the police station, a man in a windbreaker walked briskly towards the office.
The police officers they met along the way saluted one after another, and the man simply nodded in response. The five-star badge and police badge on his chest revealed his identity. He was one of the Four Heavenly Kings of the Donghuang Alliance and also an excellent policeman.
"Director Meng, how is the investigation going?"
The director sitting at his desk shook his head.
"We still have no clues. Although we received reports as soon as the rat tide appeared, we still haven't found any clues."
The man sat down at the desk and picked up a document and started reading it.
"Have you found any suspicious persons entering or leaving Dali recently?"
Director Meng shook his head.
"No, as the year draws to a close, the number of people entering and leaving Dali has increased significantly. We have also deployed additional personnel, but we have not found any suspicious individuals or organizations entering or leaving Dali."
"That's strange. This is the third such incident in Yun Province."
As he said this, he put down the document in his hand. The document clearly recorded that similar Lada runaway incidents had occurred in Kunming and Pu'er.
This might not be a big deal if it happened once or twice, but it had already happened for the third time. The continuous occurrence of abnormal events, which had caused great harm and impact, had attracted the attention of the higher-ups. They seriously suspected that this might have been intentional by some people or organizations, otherwise it would not be the turn of him, a Four Heavenly King, to step in.
Director Meng also looked confused.
"What is going on? Is it true that someone did this on purpose? But what is their purpose?"
Suddenly, a man walked into the office and said.
"Is there a possibility that they are coming for the tile cat?"
Chapter 76: A villain organization existing in Donghuang?
"Master Duan Chun, do you have any clues?"
Director Meng raised his eyebrows, but he was not too surprised by Duan Chun's sudden appearance. After all, the gym master himself also has the responsibility to protect the city. Such a big thing happened in Dali, there is no reason for him not to know.
Duan Chun shook his head.
"There are no clues, but what happened recently is somewhat similar to the legend I heard when I was a child."
Director Meng shook his head, opened the thermos and took a sip.
"I know, but legends are just legends after all. You and I both know that tile cats don't exist."
"I know."
Duan Chun responded calmly and continued.
"But what if a bunch of crazy people believed it?"
As soon as these words were spoken, Director Meng's expression became serious.
Lin He, one of the Four Heavenly Kings, looked at the two of them in confusion.
"What are you two talking about? What legends? What tile cats? What doesn't exist? Can you please talk properly? I'm still here."
Duan Chun and Director Meng are both natives of Yunnan Province, so they know what a Wa cat is as soon as it is mentioned. However, Lin He is from another province, and he was confused when he heard the conversation between the two.
"The thing is, the tile cat is a kind of auspicious animal in the local myths and legends of our Yun Province."
Director Meng briefly explained to Lin He the matters related to the tile cat.
After listening to it, Lin He nodded with a look of enlightenment.
"I see. So what Master Duan Chun means is that some people believe that the auspicious beast in the legend does exist, and that this auspicious beast is a powerful Pokémon, so they want to lure it out and then capture it, right?"
Director Meng nodded.
"Yes, but I don't agree with the view of the owner Duan Chun. It's a bit too far-fetched to believe that myths are true."
"No, that's not bullshit."
I thought Lin He would also think it was nonsense, but then Director Meng saw that Lin He's expression became serious.
"Wait a minute, I'll show you something."
As he said that, he took out his cell phone and made a call.
"Hello, it's me...yes...right, send the information over."
Soon a file was sent to Lin He's mobile phone.
"Director Meng, please lend me your computer."
Soon a document was retrieved by Lin He.
“This is an organization that suddenly emerged in Donghuang. They call themselves Honghuang. Their main purpose is that legends are the buried truth, and they want to reveal the truth to everyone.
This theme quickly attracted a large number of young people to follow, and of course it also attracted the attention of the higher-ups. However, after investigating, we found that they were hiding much deeper than we thought. After several investigations, we were unable to find the real main body of this organization. They were just fanatics who followed the propaganda without thinking. "
Looking at these documents, Duan Chun and Director Meng both frowned.
They understand what this means. See, preaching faith, attracting followers, and then brainwashing them is a classic operation of that bunch of religious parasites.
Similarly, these things are extremely contagious and harmful.
"I was surprised that this organization had little to do with this incident, but after hearing what Master Duan Chun said, I think it's possible that this organization is behind this."
Director Meng said with an extremely serious expression.
"If this is true, then the problem is serious. This beast tide, together with the previous two, can no longer be simply defined as an occasional animal migration. It can be completely defined as a terrorist activity."
Although it sounds a bit outrageous, that's because the Rattatas were rioting in the wild. But what if someone really could have caused it and then led these Rattatas into the city?
Duan Chun said seriously.
"Director Meng, in order to prevent accidents from happening, I think it is necessary to take some tough measures,"
"I know. I will notify all Pokémon Centers and Gyms and have them pay close attention to the situation around the city."
Things unknowingly began to develop in a serious direction, but Su Yuan and Zhuang Yan were unaware of it.
Under Tang Shijie's arrangement, the two stayed in the Tang family's big villa to rest at night.
"Hoo~!"
Lying on the bed, Su Yuan breathed a sigh of relief.
"It seems that things are developing faster than I thought."
He looked at the two badges he had placed on the table.
I originally thought that after getting the first badge, I would need to go through many bizarre and tortuous tests before I could get the badge again. Unexpectedly, I arrived at the destination by car on the first day, rested for a night, and completed the gym challenge on the second day. If you don't count the episode of encountering a Rattata riot in the wild, my experience of getting the badge was incredibly smooth.
"Pfft! What am I thinking about? Life has its own twists and turns. Why does it need to be full of ups and downs?"
Su Yuan shook his head repeatedly, shaking off all those terrible thoughts.
"It's better if everything goes smoothly. Next time when you challenge a gym, it would be better if it goes as smoothly as it did today."
As he spoke, Su Yuan opened his golden finger. He had not signed for the reward from the Yunrao Gym yet. He was chatting with Zhuang Yan and the others at the time and had not paid close attention. It seemed that his golden finger had given him something new again.
"Come and show me what good stuff it is."
The rewards are the same as those of the Osmanthus Gym, including 10,000 battle points and a secret skill machine. Su Yuan hasn't opened the skill machine of the Osmanthus Gym yet, but he's not lacking any skills now so he might as well save them for now.
"Special skill tree? What the hell is this? Can I learn skills? Oh my god, am I actually a Pokémon? Can I learn the finishing touch or the Sub-Sky Slash?"
With doubts and curiosity, Su Yuan accepted the reward of the special skill tree.
[Special skill tree unlocked, skill points*10. ]
"Ah this!"
Lying on the bed, Su Yuan looked at the so-called special skills in the system and said he was a little disappointed. There were only a few skills in it, such as cooking, music, art, etc.
He thought it was a Pokémon skill, but it turned out to be a social practice skill.
"Tsk, what a useless cheat code. I thought it was something good, but it's just this. Even if there's no Sub-Sky Slash or Root Wave, can't you give me some Evergreen Force or Wave Force? What's the point of giving me these skills?
When those legendary beasts come out, should I tell them, "Hey, don't do anything, let me sing a song and draw a picture for you?" Others who have developed to this stage are probably able to fight against Pokémon, so why is it just a talent show for me? "
Looking at these skills, Su Yuan complained bluntly that they were indeed a bit useless.
But looking at those ten skill points, it's better than nothing. Just click on them to see if there are any useful points.
Just casually browse through the skill tree to see if there are any practical talents. If not, you can just pick some military boxing or something. At least you can take a few more hits when you get hit.
