Age of Elves: I started flashing with my handheld.

Mother Anjiang: Poisonous Rose LV17

That's some strength...

After thinking it over, Nanfeng still sent out Garchomp.

Half a minute later.

[Mother Anjiang: He hits women! He hits women!]

south wind:? ? ?

Anjiang ran into the house crying, and a young girl ran out from inside.

[Daughter Xiaoxue: It's rare to encounter a trainer who can defeat both my parents consecutively, so it's up to me! To defend the honor and dignity of our winning streak family!]

Without saying a word, Xiaoxue pulled Nanfeng into the battle scene.

Nanfeng finally saw things clearly: what kind of winning streak family is this? It's more like a family of endless battles!

If their strength is similar to that of their family, they might actually be sent back to the Pokémon Center.

Daughter Xiaoxue: Marilu LV15, Mushroom LV15, Dullfire Camel LV15

Garchomp blew her up!

One minute and thirty seconds later.

[Daughter Xiaoxue: Grandma! Someone is bullying me!]

Xiaoxue ran back into the house crying, and soon an old lady came out leaning on a cane.

[Grandma Mitsuyo: In broad daylight, under the clear sky! You come to my door and bully my granddaughter! I'll teach you a lesson!]

Nanfeng was full of questions. He thought, wasn't it his family that dragged him into the fight from the very beginning? How did it become that he came to their door on his own initiative?

Can this be tolerated?

Even if it's an old lady, I'll still hit her hard!

Garchomp, go!

Grandma Mitsuyo: Masana LV18

Thirty seconds later.

[Grandma Mitsuyo: Young people who lack martial ethics, I advise you to behave yourself!]

As she spoke, Grandma Mitsuyo also crawled back into the house, and finally no one came out again.

Nobody came out?

It seems the whole family is together now.

Nanfeng entered the house, where Dad, Mom, daughter, and Grandma were sitting around a table. 910

Go up and talk to them.

I learned from Grandma Mitsuyo that the Rensheng family has not been defeated yet. She has a grandson named Ryohei who is adventuring outside and has already reached the path to the championship! Only by defeating him can we truly defeat the Rensheng family.

Okay, the Road to Champions, right? When I get to the Road to Champions, I will definitely bring him here to reunite with your family.

Ryohei: Grandma, thank you! (Tears streaming down his face)

I received a magical item from my mother, Anjiang: a forced training device.

Forced Training Device: Pokémon carrying this item will have their speed halved in battle, but the training effect will be doubled.

The effect seems to be different from what Nanfeng knew...

There isn't an exact replica of this magical item in reality, but there are similar items, such as weighted vests and other training equipment.

However, forced exercise equipment is not as troublesome as a weighted vest.

Looking at his team, Nanfeng thought for a moment and equipped it with the Powerpuff. Since it trained quite a bit, equipping a Pokémon like Garchomp, which only thought about eating and not training, would be a waste!

With nothing left to loot, Nanfeng left the house and glanced back.

In a sense, this family is indeed a winning streak family, but that refers to the challenger's winning streak.

77. Secret Base

Next to the family's cabin, there is a tall building called "Trainer's Hill," whose doors are locked.

There were no prior notices, not even an announcement of when it would open.

However, in Nanfeng's past life memories, Trainer Hill would open after he defeated the Elite Four, and defeating the trainers in Trainer Hill would grant him some rare skill cooldowns.

Let's come and check it out after we defeat the Four Heavenly Kings.

Continuing forward, after smashing the rocks in the road with rock-breaking tools, Nanfeng arrived at a desert, but due to the strong sandstorms, he could not enter for the time being.

To the left is the foot of Chimney Mountain, on Route 112. South Wind encountered Team Magma blocking the way at the foot of the mountain, preventing him from using the cable car to go up the mountain. With no other option, he had to hike up the mountain.

Enter the Blazing Trail on the side of the cable car, where you'll find yourself in a fiery volcanic landscape.

The Pokémon living here include: Machop, Grimer, Koffing, Magcargo, Camerupt, and Torkoal.

There are two types of spirits worth training.

After evolving into Camerupt, it can undergo MEGA evolution.

And Coal Torterra, also known as "Little Groudon," is a top-tier weather user.

If you want to build a weather team for Rizhao later, you can catch a high-level Torkoal here.

Apart from that, Nanfeng was not interested in other elves.

A huge rock blocks the way on the side of the Blazing Path, requiring the "Historical Strength" to push it aside. Nanfeng can only wait until after challenging the LavaCover Gym to check it out.

After leaving the Blazing Trail, you'll find Route 111. Although it's still Route 111, it's separated from the previous route by a desert map.

Further up, Nanfeng obtained a skill cooldown card called "Secret Power" from an NPC.

And the other party demonstrated to me how to use the secret power.

This is a move that allows Pokémon to create secret bases in special rock walls, trees, and grass!

The so-called secret base is a spacious and special space that ordinary people cannot find. The protagonist can arrange it however he likes; in other words, it's a small home.

"If you can create a secret base in a game, what about in real life?" Nanfeng suddenly became curious and eager to try it out.

If we could create secret bases like in a game, we wouldn't have to worry about sleeping outdoors when we go on adventures!

"Let's go, let's give it a try!" Nanfeng gave Kirlia the skill cooldown of Secret Power to learn.

Even though it was already past midnight, Nanfeng was preparing to go out with Kirulian to see if Qiantang University had a suitable place to set up their secret base.

Before she even left the yard, Kirlia suddenly stopped in front of the big tree in the yard and gently pressed her delicate little hand against it.

Suddenly, a spiral-shaped portal of light appeared on the tree trunk, spinning continuously as if it were about to devour people!

“Liru~~” Kirlia made a gesture of invitation.

"This tree can be used as a secret base?" Nanfeng was dumbfounded.

This tree is only about the thickness of two people's arms. What could you possibly do with it if you built a secret base here? Use it as a storage locker?

Nanfeng walked in with some skepticism, but what he saw there stunned him.

What he saw was not a cramped locker, but a space the size of a basketball court!

“This…” Nanfeng’s eyes widened in disbelief.

Hidden within a large tree, as thick as two people could encircle, is a space the size of a basketball court?

Obviously impossible.

So... the secret power is spatial ability?

The south wind went in.

A bright incandescent light bulb hung from the ceiling in the center of the space, illuminating the entire space as if it were daytime. In a corner, Nanfeng proudly spotted a computer!

"A computer? How come there's a computer here?" Nanfeng quickly stepped forward.

He operated the computer and discovered that it was the computer in his game, the one where he could store items and take out sprites!

Nanfeng was a little confused.

The secret base built by Kirlia's secret power is exactly the same as the one in the game!

The secret base in the game is like a built-in computer. As long as you see a place where you can use secret power to build a secret base, you can enter it at any time to store and retrieve items.

"Could it be... that the secret base Kirlia built with her secret powers is the same secret base in the game?" Nanfeng rubbed his chin, speculating.

"Let's test it out!" Nanfeng took off his coat and threw it on the ground, then came out of the tree hole and asked Kirulian to lead him to find the next secret base.

Kirlian didn't even look for it. She reached out and pressed her hand against the wall next to the big tree, and instantly, the spiral-shaped portal of light reappeared.

“Can you open secret bases anywhere with your secret power?” Nanfeng asked.

Kirullian nodded slightly.

Nanfeng's lips curled into a wild smile; this was even more awesome than in the game!

Enter the spiral light gate again.

The scene inside remained the same: incandescent lights, computers, and Nanfeng's coat that she had just taken off.

"The secret power seems to be a technique that opens up a unique space," Nanfeng pondered.

In the game, if a character establishes a new secret base in another location, the computer will move it from the previous location. Items placed in the previous location will then be added to the computer's inventory.

Now, the secret base has changed.

The layout of the space was exactly the same, and even the clothes that he had deliberately thrown on the floor were untouched.

This is combined with Kirlia's ability to open secret bases from anywhere.

The south wind has already been confirmed.

The secret base is essentially an independent space hidden within a spatial rift, and Kirlia's secret power technique is a key to it.

Wherever she used her secret power, it was like putting the key in the door; the space that opened was always the independent space hidden within that space.

In other words, this is a space where the south wind can be carried with you at all times.

There's one more thing Nanfeng wants to test.

He took out his phone and placed it at the door to record a video before re-entering the secret base.

Come out in one minute.

The phone recording time is still one minute, indicating that there is no time difference between the two spaces.

However, the spiral light gate disappeared immediately after the south wind entered, and in the screen recording, the wall was still the wall, without any difference.

"It really is a secret base!"

78. Advance the plot

At two in the morning, Nanfeng was looking at furniture.

The secret base will be like his own independent little nest from now on, and Nanfeng will buy the best furniture for it.

Although we probably won't need it in the short term.

The next day was Saturday. After making breakfast for his Pokémon, Nanfeng continued to advance the story. He planned to first reach the LavaCity Gym to see how strong the Gym Leader was. If he couldn't beat him, he'd level up and maybe even get some shiny Pokémon along the way.

Because the LavaCup Gym is a Fire-type Gym, Nanfeng specifically moved Froakie back to the starting position to level it up first. The type advantage was favorable, and Nanfeng had already tasted the benefits when battling the Fighting Gym and the Mauville Gym.

From Route 111, head up to Route 113, which leads directly to Akihachi Town.

On Highway 113, everything was shrouded in a gray haze. Volcanic ash from Chimney Mountain had coated the area with a thin layer of gray, making it resemble smog, but much worse. So, it wasn't exactly a healthy ecosystem. Yet, this unique place still became a paradise for some special creatures.

On Route 113, you can find Pokémon like Magcargo, Spinda, and Sandshrew, with a relatively low chance of encountering the rare Skarmory. (913)

The south wind caught the armored bird it encountered.

For now, I'll use this as my flying mount when I go out. I won't train it; it's just a temporary solution.

In addition, some people here collect volcanic ash to make glass products, including glass tables and chairs that can be used as furniture, as well as glass whistles with special effects.

These glass whistles all have very unique functions.
