Pokémon League Chronicles/Farming, Pokémon Trainer!

1 Mercenaries

Qi Yun leaned on the railing of the deck and said in a relaxed tone: "First of all... you can see it, right? Even with the influence of angry fans, the young man named Xizhuo's concentration is really not good."

Karl shook his head: "He looks less than 17 years old, which is the age for impulsiveness."

"Indeed, but ordinary young people will not have as much power as him."

Qi Yun looked at Karl, his eyes full of joy and interest: "I watched him play against others a few days ago, and his level was really quite good!

As far as I know, there is a family called Joey in the Kanto region. The family members have lived with Pokémon since they were young. They have been exposed to Pokémon since they were young, and their Pokémon battle level is more than a little bit better than those of us in wild ways.

However, the young man named Xizhuo, his level is not inferior to that of his peers in the Joey family. This is not something that ordinary people can do. "

Karl was silent for a moment: "They said that they came from a "gym" that specializes in Pokémon battle training. So shouldn't it be natural that they will be stronger?"

"They did say it, but we don't have much evidence to prove that they are telling the truth, right?" Qi Yun spread his hands: "And a person who is powerful but mentally immature can prove that to a certain extent." Are you right about the authenticity of "Dojo"?

Karl thought for a moment: "It seems to make sense...but it's not enough. There is no way to directly prove your reasoning ability."

"Really? There is no way, then I can only reluctantly reveal more content to you."

Qi Yun deliberately let out a long sigh: "Brother Carl, I think you seem to have seen a lot and met countless people. Can you tell me what kind of person you think Xizhuo is to Ah Shun?" What’s your attitude?”

"Admiration." Karl said without hesitation: "He admires Ah Shun extremely, not only for Ah Shun's strength, but also Ah Shun's character and way of dealing with others, etc., and he also learned a lot from Ah Shun. specialty."

"Right? I think instead of calling him Master Ashun, I would rather call him Big Brother." Qi Yun agreed: "And Ashun's character... Well, I believe that after the contact in the past few days, you should also It's hard to tell that he is a very proud and arrogant person.

And for such a person to make others admire him, it is not enough just to have ability. He must also have character and loyalty. "

"Speaking of loyalty?" Karl was a little confused.

"To put it simply, it is to take care of the people under his command so that they feel that he is worthy of worship and worthy of following."

Qi Yun explained with a smile: "I'm not bragging. I've been running around in the world for so many years, and I've seen many types of elder brothers and younger brothers, and I have some experience in this regard.

These relationships are classified hierarchically and can be roughly divided into three levels.

The first-class thing is that the younger brother follows the elder brother and has meat and soup to drink, as long as it is profitable.

That kind of relationship can't be said to be very healthy. Everyone wants to gain and gain. Once the chain of interests is broken, everyone will fall apart. Naturally, there is no such thing as "the younger brother worships the older brother".

The second level is loyalty.

The younger brother not only followed the elder brother because he had meat to eat, but also was impressed by the elder brother's beliefs and methods, and was attracted by the elder brother's personality charm.In this way, even if the eldest brother is a wanted criminal that everyone wants to kill, they are still willing to follow him up the mountain of swords and into the sea of ​​fire.

Xizhuo and Ashun belong to this kind of relationship. "

"What do you think of Ashun's charisma?" Karl frowned again: "I originally thought that apart from his outstanding strength, he was just a arrogant guy."

"In the eyes of us outsiders, he is actually very good to Xizhuo." Qi Yun smiled and shook his head: "There are obviously many rooms in this passenger ship, but Ah Shun deliberately let Xizhuo and him They live together in the only special guest room here; they eat at the same level every day, and they don’t exchange precious food with each other, and they don’t skimp on it. Except for not sleeping in the same bed, they share almost all of their best treatment. Give it to him.”

Karl was silent for a moment, and his eyes when he looked at Qi Yun suddenly became a little strange: "How do you know this?"

"I peeked, otherwise they could have told me?" Qi Yun said confidently with his hands on his hips.

Karl was silent for a moment again. He was probably startled by Qi Yun's perverted behavior. After a while, he secretly decided to check outside the house when he went to bed today. Then he said slowly: "...So, what do you mean?"

"I mean, Ah Shun is a very good and loyal big brother to Xizhuo." Qi Yun rubbed his chin and said with a playful look: "And such a big brother, when Xizhuo and I just started talking, When there was a conflict, instead of standing up for him, he took the initiative to apologize to me... Do you know what this means?"

"Indicate what?"

"It means that he needs to have a good relationship with me and leave a good impression in front of me - or in other words, leave a good impression in front of the dozen or so boat passengers who were watching at that time."

Qi Yun looked into the distance. Several ship passengers were currently engaged in a Pokémon battle. The powerful jet flames collided with the freezing light, creating a huge explosion.

"It's not hard for you to see that Ah Shun is an extremely proud and self-centered person at heart. There is only one reason why such a person can find ways to have a good relationship with others." Qi Yun raised a finger and smiled. : "This shows that he is asking for our help for something, rather than trying to trick us into having our waist cut off somewhere."

"What does he want from us?" Karl asked subconsciously: "What does he want from us?"

"I don't know, but I can make a rough guess.

If there were already more than 100 people in the gym they mentioned, then Ah Shun probably wasn't looking for playmates.

And is there anything that requires the help of more than 20 people with strong Pokémon battle abilities? "

Qi Yun especially emphasized the words "strong", so Karl quickly understood what he meant.

"You mean... he wants to treat us as mercenaries and use force to deal with something?" Karl crossed his arms and thought: "But his strength is superior to all of us, so there is no need to win over us. ?"

"That can only mean that the enemy he wants to deal with is extremely powerful and huge. Or, in other words, he really hates the enemy and wants to eliminate them without fail."

Chapter 1: Ambitious

"Exceptionally powerful enemy..." Karl glanced at Qi Yun: "Do you have any clues?"

"Well...hehe, it's just a guess." Qi Yun smiled: "As far as I know, in the entire Xicui area, the only one worthy of his mobilization of troops is the Galaxy Team."

"Team Galaxy? What is that?"

"A pioneer organization that arrived in the Xicui area more than ten years ago, its founder seemed to have been a quite famous general before.

Although there are also local Pearl Team and King Kong Team in the Xicui area, those two organizations are primitive tribes with a bit of religious nature. Although their strength is good, they should not be able to mobilize troops like Ah Shun... Therefore, Ah Shun wants to The enemy we are facing is most likely Team Galaxy, and we are his reinforcements. "

As he spoke, Qi Yun actually took out a small book full of sticky notes from his arms, opened a certain page and handed it to Karl.

"Look, this is the information I collected about Team Galaxy. Isn't it interesting?"

Seeing Karl taking the notebook and looking deep in thought, Qi Yun smiled unconsciously.

He is very confident in his reasoning, and the evidence is sufficient and the reasons are sufficient. Even if it is different from the real situation, it is enough to prove his ability and convince the man in front of him.

Karl flipped the notebook back and forth, and finally returned it to Qi Yun, nodded and said: "I understand, it seems that your information is indeed valuable..."

"Right?" Qi Yun grinned and reached out to hold Karl's hand: "Then before this matter is over, let's get together first, okay?"

Karl did not resist, letting Qi Yun hold his hand and swing it, his eyes lowered, as if he was thinking about something.

"I can form an alliance with you." Karl raised his head and looked directly into Qi Yun's eyes: "But I have a question to ask you."

"No problem, just ask." Qi Yun said openly.

"Why did you seek an alliance with me?" Karl looked at him: "There are more than 20 people on this ship, why did you come to me?"

"Oh, this is very simple." Qi Yun smiled and pointed at Karl's waist: "Because you brought five elf balls, it shows that you are very strong. On this ship, except for Ashun, , I’m afraid you are the one who brings the most Pokémon, right?”

Karl frowned: "That's it?"

"That's right." Qi Yun said confidently: "The more Pokémon you bring, the stronger you are. Is there anything wrong with wanting to actively form an alliance with a strong person?"

Karl was silent for a moment and sighed: "Okay, I'll just take this as your flattery to me."

"It's not flattery, I really feel that way." Qi Yun smiled and waved to Karl: "Then I'll leave first. To be honest, I'm still a little sleepy and want to go back to the room to rest first."

With that said, he didn't wait for Karl to respond, and actually walked away, completely going his own way.

Karl was stunned for a moment and couldn't help but stop him: "Wait!"

"Huh? What's wrong? My ally?" Qi Yun turned half of his head and said with a half-smile.

"You just said that the eldest brother and the younger brother have three kinds of relationships, right?"

Karl crossed his arms: "And you only said two kinds. What is the last remaining relationship like?"

Qi Yun was silent for a moment and suddenly smiled: "The third type... they will gather together not because of the benefits of the first relationship, nor because of the brotherhood of the second relationship, but because of the same beliefs and ideals.”

Beliefs and ideals?

Carl said the word silently.

"Aren't there often similar historical stories? The relationship between the king and the general was not a good one, but they were able to cooperate seamlessly and eventually achieved great things." Qi Yun shrugged: "At this point, their relationship is no longer a good one. It's not just "big brother and little brother", but "leader and follower", or comrades... in short, it's a very noble relationship."

Karl glanced at him: "Have you ever seen this kind of relationship?"

"Unfortunately, not." Qi Yun spread his hands with regret on his face: "This kind of relationship is too idealistic. It probably only exists in history textbooks and picture books. To be honest, I really want to be with someone. Let’s build this relationship.”

Karl couldn't help but raise his eyebrows: "You... don't look like a person with any beliefs and ideals. Instead, you look like a guy who is just having fun."

"That's so rude, ally." Qi Yun smiled and said: "Although I personally don't have any specific lofty ideals, if I really see some great and ambitious genius, I wouldn't mind becoming a follower. ?”

——Mental shock——

"I... I have a dream."

Mingyao leaned forward, clutching the clothes on his chest with his right hand, looking pleading.

"In a few days, it will be my sister's birthday... To celebrate her birthday, I want to cook her a delicious meal.

However, there are few villages near this gym, and there are no good restaurants.So I thought, why don’t I try to cook it myself?To tell you the truth, my craftsmanship is actually pretty good.

But, it’s been a long time since I last cooked. In order to prevent my skills from deteriorating, could you please lend me your kitchen for two days? "

"This, this, Senior Sister Xiao Ming..." The disciple in charge of the kitchen today was sweating profusely and said at a loss: "But next, I and several other disciples will have to cook for all the brothers and sisters in the gym. I’m afraid there’s no room for lunch…”

"Don't worry, you can just go and have a peaceful rest. Let me take care of the food for these two days." Mingyao said with a smile on his face: "Since I want to borrow your kitchen, I should also help you do a good job. .”

"No, no, that's not the problem..." The disciple in charge of managing the kitchen continued to sweat profusely: "It is our job to manage the kitchen. This is the rule of the gym..."

"Rules are dead, people are alive." Mingyao continued with a smile on his face: "Don't worry, leave the kitchen to me, I will definitely not let you down..."

After several rounds, the disciple who managed the kitchen was finally defeated and reluctantly took out a key from his waist and handed it to Mingyao.

"This is the key to the kitchen. Just put it in and turn it clockwise twice." The disciple hesitated for a moment: "Are you sure you want to do this? I have been in charge of the kitchen for two or three years. I know it better than anyone else. It's such a hard work for people in the restaurant to prepare food. From chopping wood to making fire to cooking is very troublesome. I really can't bear to let people like you do this kind of work..."

"Don't worry, I'm not a spoiled young lady. I'm very skilled at doing this kind of work."

Chapter 1 Happy Lantern Festival

After getting the key, Mingyao hummed a tune and walked towards the cafeteria on the first floor.

He was holding the key in his right hand, and his left hand was in his pocket, holding a small ceramic bottle containing some fine powder.

Before heading to the gym, Mingyao made two preparations for the disciples.

If, as he initially expected, the gym disciples didn't have much so-called loyalty to Ah Shun and could easily be poached, that would be great; but if this group of people turned out to be a group of violent cultivators who shared Ah Shun's aspirations, , just like to stay in this place where Mukeer doesn’t lay eggs and suffer?

In that case, their problem is not just as simple as "can they win over", but a group of people who possess force, have violent tendencies and a history of violence (Yueyue Xiong incident), and are likely to threaten Zhuqing Village, The social unrest factor that causes the stable development of the entire Sai Tsui area is a group of lawless gangsters with criminal records.

And if this is really the case, Mingyao cannot leave them outside, and must find a way to control them.

Although Mingyao's strength can basically crush them, he is still alone after all. It is too overwhelming to expect him to be able to suppress more than 100 gym disciples with his personal violence and ensure that no one escapes.Therefore, rather than violence, he needs to use some "wisdom" or "means".

[Shiyue's exclusive formula secret Mongolian sweat medicine: Specially made hypnotic powder using Shiyue's secret formula. It is silent, odorless, colorless, invisible and harmless. The raw materials include hypnotic powder and mushroom spores and other rare materials. Depending on the dosage, it can affect the time and duration of the medicine's release. The specific effects can even affect Pokémon with the "sleepless" characteristic when the number reaches a certain level. If necessary, it can also be prepared as a hypnotic drug.

System recovery price: 398]

It can only be said that although Shi Yue may not be very strong in frontal combat, he is a master in various off-the-grid but practical skills. Even props like Mongolian sweat potion that seem to have no connection with frontal roles are Being able to take it out easily makes people really have to wonder what kind of shameful things this little old man has done before...

This secret Mongolian sweat medicine was originally used to control people in the gym. However, after investigation revealed that most of the gym disciples were not die-hard fans of Ashun and could easily scoop them up, Mingyao slowly The plan to "drug them all and take them all back" was abandoned.

The purpose of his going to the kitchen this time was not all the disciples in the gym, but the only person who could come into contact with the eldest disciple, Shi Er.

If Mingyao wanted to get a chance to negotiate with the first disciple head-on, he could only knock Shi You unconscious while Shi You was delivering food to the first disciple, and talk to him through the hidden passage opened by the first disciple.

As for the way to stun Shi Yao...compared to letting the giant mantis punch him on the back of the head with a set of bullet punches to physically anesthetize him, Mingyao still preferred a more traditional method.

The time now is probably just after ten o'clock in the morning. The gym disciples are not in the habit of eating breakfast. Most of them go to the training room on the second floor or to the open space in the wild for training early.

Mingyao easily entered the canteen without attracting anyone's attention and walked to the kitchen at the end.

After entering, Mingyao locked the kitchen casually, looked around, and couldn't help but twitching his lips: "Well, although I had expected it... but isn't this too tragic?"

The kitchen occupies a large area, almost as big as half a classroom, but it's so chaotic that it's almost impossible to get down.Various pots and pans were piled all over the floor, and some even had traces of leftover food on them.

"These guys...didn't they wash the bowls in time after cooking? Could it be that they just brushed the edge of the water tank before eating? The quality of hygiene is a credit to the Pokémon World. There are no American cockroaches, otherwise this place would be a bug nest at least."

The purpose of Mingyao coming here is to drug Shi Yi, and the prerequisite for drugging is naturally that there must be food here.Looking at the messy kitchen, Mingyao had no choice but to take out the elf ball: "Gotha Duck, come and clean up this place!"

The big blue-skinned duck with a red gem on its forehead immediately appeared in the kitchen and began to put away the empty bowls and basins everywhere.

Although Gotha's combat power is not as outstanding as other Pokémon, as a water Pokémon that can learn telekinesis and many other super-type moves, it has unique advantages in cleaning and hygiene.

In addition to using the water gun to clean objects, it can also use telekinesis to pick up multiple dishes and chopsticks at the same time, place the cleaned items in an orderly manner, and even pour out all the water remaining on the floor and table. A good friend of the housewife.

Mingyao then directed Gotha Duck to wash the rice, while he took out a dozen vegetables from the vegetable basket and began to process them.

One thing to say is that Mingyao did not lie to the disciple in charge of the kitchen. At least he was really good at cooking - rather, this was once one of his training projects with Shi Yue.

According to Shi Yue, eating dry food alone is not enough in the wild. Learning to obtain food to feed yourself and fully provide energy and nutrition is a very important part. It is even more critical and important than small skills such as climbing walls and unlocking locks. Sex ranks high among all classes.

Mingyao was convinced and studied hard.

And after he finished his studies, he would be dragged by Shi Yue from time to time to help with the cooking in the Yuman Pavilion, which made it difficult for him not to doubt whether the old man actually just wanted to be lazy, so he taught him how to cook...

While thinking wildly, dozens of kilograms of potatoes and radishes were peeled and cut into pieces, and Gotha Duck also washed all the rice.
