This trainer has no moral principles

This is not difficult to understand. In a duel where you let your opponent win, you cannot trigger the characteristic of obtaining the Spirit Core. And in a duel where you don't let your opponent win, with the Silent Magician's current ability, he can't even last until his opponent refines the fifth spell card.

Unless it is a situation like fighting against the masked killer, where two elves are sent into the field at the same time and another elf protects the silent magician, there is a slim hope of achieving the conditions.

"Recording spirit information by absorbing spiritual energy particles is indeed a groundbreaking product, but isn't this illegal?"

You Zhi recalled the relevant provisions of the "Elf Information Protection Law" and suddenly realized that this law does not allow people to spread elf information privately, but does not prohibit people from collecting elf information.

It is not illegal to just collect and not disseminate information.

If one day the professional books containing information about elves are discovered in Bekas's study, Bekas himself will not bear any legal responsibility, but the publisher and the author will be held accountable.

It may sound a bit contradictory, but as long as you put yourself in the shoes of the wealthy chaebol, you will find that this law is very reasonable and perfectly protects the interests of the upper class.

In addition to collecting information about elves, the elf encyclopedia can also collect information about spell cards. As long as the scanning mode is turned on, the true effect of the spell card can be recorded regardless of whether the caster is yourself or someone else.

In addition, the Pokémon Encyclopedia also has a built-in chat software called "Blog Community", and each Pokémon Encyclopedia has a unique ID, which can be used to communicate with other holders after logging in.

In the community forum, illustrated book holders can exchange their recorded elf information and spell card information with each other, purchase them with money, or even post tasks to obtain information about specific elves.

These behaviors are not illegal, because according to the provisions of the "Elf Information Protection Law", it is illegal to spread information to more than 5 people at the same time. One-on-one communication is obviously not included, and it can only be regarded as ordinary academic exchange.

"It may seem like they're teetering on the edge of illegality, but in reality, every step is firmly within the legal scope. The inventor of the Pokémon Encyclopedia must have consulted with legal experts."

I used Youzhi Click Software and went through a simple registration process. I casually filled in "Da Xiongchuan" as my nickname, and browsed the forum first. I didn't find any interesting posts, but I often saw posts with "Singularity" in the title. However, every time I clicked on them, I was told that I did not have enough permissions. I had to give up regretfully and log into the chat room instead.

Mother-in-law: Welcome newcomers, finally there is some fresh blood coming in. The last time newcomers joined was about half a year ago.

Psychic: 216 days ago to be exact.

Thunder Mage: I have always felt that the distribution mechanism is problematic. Is it too strict?

Dr. Tony: The Pokémon Encyclopedia is a very sophisticated machine with limited production, so it is only natural that its owners are strictly selected.

Strong and powerful: If necessary, I can help contact the OEM factory.

Feilongzaitian: I am against it. Once the technology of the Elf Encyclopedia is leaked, the consequences will be disastrous. Although the current referral mechanism is inefficient, it is safe. Once a problem occurs, the person in charge can be found quickly.

Mother-in-law: You scared the newlyweds, they don’t dare to speak.

Snow Queen: Maybe he's just shy.

Thunder Mage: Would a shy person give himself a nickname like "Big Cruel"?

Big Cruelty: Hello everyone, I am a new trainer who has been training for a month and a half. I am currently on a gym challenge trip in the Johto region. Do you have any suggestions?

Strong and Awesome: Gym Challenge Trip... What a distant memory, it seems the person coming this time is a true newcomer.

Medium: In the Johto region, newcomers should avoid the three gyms: Azure, Smoke, and Gold. Their gym owners are quite strict and not very friendly to newcomers.

Snow Queen: That’s pretty strict… You’re being euphemistic. Actually, it doesn’t matter if you put it more bluntly. We’re all just strangers anyway.

Da Xiongchuan: Thank you @Psychic Medium for your advice, I will pay attention to it. May I ask what "singularity" means and why do I need permission to view it?

Flying Dragon in the Sky: Newbies don’t need to understand this. Once you obtain six gym badges, the permissions will be naturally unlocked.

Chapter 26 Hidden Plot

As a newbie, Youzhi consciously decided to speak less and peek at the screen more, and then communicate after becoming familiar with the situation.

Moreover, he vaguely felt that the people who spoke were all big shots. If they communicated under the condition of unequal strength, there would only be one-sided dependence, which was not in line with his principles of dealing with people.

In addition, he also discovered one thing: the holders of these elf encyclopedias had no intention of breaking the knowledge monopoly!

At least not from the chat room comments and forum posts alone.

Don't blame Youzhi for the misunderstanding. The key is that the words that Bekas said when he said goodbye and the function of the Pokémon Encyclopedia make it hard not to think of the fight against the "Pokémon Information Protection Act".

But in fact, the holders of the Elf Atlas gathered together in order to clear the singularity. As vested interests, it is difficult to say which side they will stand on. Anyway, Youzhi does not intend to reveal his thoughts to anyone to avoid danger.

"The closest one right now is the Hinoki Gym. I remember it was a Bug-type gym in the game, and the gym owner's ace Pokémon is Scyther. I wonder what Pokémon will be replaced with that in this world... Oops, a Bug-type gym is seriously disadvantageous to me."

You Zhi counted the elves he had on hand. The Psychic-type Silent Magician and the Dark-type Goblin Assault Troops were restrained by the Bug-type. The Fighting-type moves of the Demon Lizard Yihao only did half the damage to the Bug-type, so no matter which one he sent to fight, they would be at a disadvantage.

No one thinks that they are a master of reverse attributes like Xiaozhi, right?

You Zhi couldn't help but frown. If it were a game, the worst that could happen was to catch a Pokémon with advantageous attributes, even if he didn't like it or it had low potential, and then put it on the computer and leave it idle after helping him defeat the gym. But he couldn't do that in reality.

The Pokémon you capture must at least develop tacit understanding, increase their levels, and master some powerful moves, so that you have a chance of winning. Otherwise, you will only be beaten by the Gym Leader due to his/her adverse attributes.

Not everyone can be a gym leader in real life. The requirement is to be at least a six-star trainer and have strong command skills. It is definitely not just cold data in the game.

It's not worth it to spend so much effort just to get a gym badge.

But if we continue to make mistakes and continue to train the elves as the main force even though we know that they have no potential, it will be not worth it in the long run.

"Even if I don't pursue advantageous attributes and put my personal preferences aside, it's still not easy to find a talented elf..."

You Zhi clearly has a cheat to identify the elves' talents, but he chooses to make do with what he has. He feels that doing so is really not doing justice to his identity as a time traveler. However, elves with high talents are always hard to come by. So far, the most talented wild elf he has met is only "Ping".

The books in Bekas's study about the distribution areas of rare elves record rare groups, not rare individuals. Rare elves do not mean high talent.

After all, if an extremely talented elf is really discovered, even if the author does not have the ability to tame it, he can just sell the information to the rich. This is much more cost-effective than taking the risk of breaking the law to earn some royalties.

While thinking, You Zhi caught a glimpse of the date in the corner of the screen, and suddenly an idea flashed in his mind.

"Wait a minute! I remember there's a hidden plot in the cave next to Hinoki Town that requires a specific time to trigger. Does this world have the same setting?"

Even though it was a game he had played twenty years ago, he only needed a moment to recall all the details:

There is a connecting cave on the way to the Bug-type Gym. After obtaining the secret skill Surf, you can enter the connecting cave and ride a Pokémon across a body of water to reach the underground lake deep in the cave. Every Friday, a water-type Pokémon will appear on the lake on a dragon.

You may forget all the classroom knowledge that your teacher repeatedly reminded you two years ago, but the gaming secrets you accidentally discovered twenty years ago will be engraved in your DNA and you will remember them forever.

Even though I know that games and reality are not the same, there is no better way anyway, so I might as well give it a try.

You Zhi first went to Huipi Town to buy a map, and then bought some camping props and diving equipment. After confirming that everything was correct, he set off to the connecting cave east of Huipi Town.

Although his body is developing more and more like a superman after practicing "Strong and Weak Simulation of Gods", he is still far from the level of Nezha making trouble in the sea. He still needs to pay attention to safety. There is no need to be stubborn about such things.

The terrain of the real connecting caves cannot be as simple as in the game. Not only are there many passages inside, dark and deep, but wild elves may jump out of the darkness and attack at any time. There is only one main road running from north to south, which is a safe area.

Once you deviate from the main path, it is impossible to predict what kind of danger you will encounter. Therefore, a huge warning sign is erected at the entrance of the cave at both ends to warn those trainers who are weak but adventurous.

Even if You Zhineng could recall the walking route in the game, he could not apply it to reality. Fortunately, he remembered that he had to cross the river to find the entrance to the underground lake. Therefore, he did not look for anything else in the cave, but looked for a place with water. After finding it, he sent the magic lizard Yihao to swim to the opposite side to see if there was an entrance leading downwards.

After searching in the connected caves for ten hours, he still found nothing. However, because he had absorbed a large amount of spiritual particles from fighting those wild Pokémon, he was able to level up. Combined with the Pokémon duel with the masked strong man, he had reached level 16 and caught up with the Demon Lizard Yihao.

Just when You Zhi was thinking about calling it a day, the demon lizard Yihao, who had swam to the other side of the pool, let out a sharp roar. This was the signal agreed upon before, so he took off his clothes and put them in a waterproof bag, then jumped into the cold pool and swam forward dragging the waterproof bag.

What, use light Kung Fu to walk across the river?

It's a pity that You Zhi learned martial arts in his previous life, not magical martial arts. The only somewhat fantasy "Strong and Weak Simulation" can only enhance physical fitness. He doesn't have any skills that violate physics such as Lingbo Weibu, so he can't do such cool things.

The water was not wide, and You Zhi reached the other side in a short while. After getting ashore, he took out a towel to dry his body, changed his clothes, and followed the instructions of the magic lizard Yihao to see a downward passage.

"This kind of terrain can't be naturally formed, but it probably wasn't created by humans either. So, is it influenced by elves?"

You Zhi summoned the Silent Magician and ordered him to use the skill "Flash". The small magic wand immediately became as bright as the sun, illuminating the originally dark cave as if it were daytime, and startled many bats.

The man and two elves walked down carefully and arrived at another underground layer after walking about ten meters. There were more and larger pools of water here, and water dripped from the ground above from time to time.

Continuing to go deeper inside, Youzhi was mentally prepared to meet powerful elves, but the journey was unexpectedly smooth and he didn't encounter anything. Instead, after walking three hundred meters, he saw another light source.

"Did someone get there first?"

There was no time to extinguish the Silent Magician's light. The owner of the light source opposite also noticed this side and even took the initiative to approach You Zhi after a little hesitation.

After a while, the light released by both sides began to overlap, and You Zhi saw the other person's appearance clearly. She was a slim red-haired girl, about eighteen years old, with a heroic figure, agile limbs, and the outline of her muscles could be seen. It was obvious that she was also a martial artist.

Chapter 27 Hero Trainer

"Who are you and what are you doing here?"

The red-haired girl asked.

You Zhi asked in return, "Before asking others, shouldn't you first state your name?"

The red-haired girl was silent for a moment, then replied, "My name is Yuan Ying, and I'm a Pokémon trainer. I can't tell you my purpose for now."

You Zhi had been preparing a bunch of perfunctory words, but the other party's honesty made him disdain to deceive, and he responded honestly: "My name is You Zhi, and I'm also a Pokémon Trainer. I probably have the same goal as you. After all, under normal circumstances, no one would come to a place like this."

"You're here for the mysterious elves too!"

The red-haired girl didn't realize she was being tricked. She said seriously, "I was here first."

You Zhi said, "There's no first come, first served rule when it comes to capturing elves. Of course, whoever captures one gets it. If a rare elf appeared somewhere, I'd arrive first and then draw a circle around that place, forbidding anyone else from entering. Would you agree with this approach?"

"...You're right. Pokémon trainers compete with each other based on their own strength. There really shouldn't be any first come, first served rules."

To Yuzhi's surprise, the red-haired girl actually nodded in agreement with his proposal, and pulled out a Pokémon card from the void, posing as a challenge: "Let's decide the ownership the way trainers do, and the loser will leave on his own accord."

"..."

As if he had met a giant panda, You Zhi stared at the other person intently.

The red-haired girl frowned slightly and said, "You're not trying to trick me by saying there's a dangerous spirit behind me, so you can turn around and attack me? I can sense the presence of living beings, and I can see my surroundings clearly without even using my eyes. Your crude trick won't fool me."

"What a pity! It would have been better if you were the one I met when I first arrived. Now there's no going back."

You Zhi sighed deeply.

"what are you talking about?"

The red-haired girl was stunned at first, not understanding what was going on. Then a trace of panic appeared on her face. "You... you're not confessing, are you? I... I'm not such a frivolous woman. Just give up on this idea!"

Seeing the other party's sincerity, You Zhi could only give up the idea of ​​using Pokémon to attract attention and take advantage of the opportunity to launch a sneak attack. Instead, he said, "Okay, let's decide the outcome the way trainers do. Whoever wins will have priority in capturing Pokémon."

He can use any means to deal with villains, but he should be upright when dealing with gentlemen. He still has the principle of distinguishing between good and evil.

As soon as the topic of elf duels came up, the red-haired girl immediately became serious, no longer distracted by anything else. "How about using the most common duel format? Whoever defeats an elf first loses?"

"can."

The two looked at each other, each holding a Pokémon card between their fingers and placing it in front of their chest.

"Duel!" X2

The red-haired girl waved her hand and shouted, "Go ahead, Elemental Hero Electro!"

[Elemental Hero Electro (4 Stars) Light]

【Pedigree: Electricity】

【Level: 18】

[Attack power: 1600 (1520)]

【Defense Strength: 1400 (1330)】

[Warrior Clan, Description: Skilled in the use of various weapons, a warrior of light, an elemental hero whose divine radiance shines, cutting off all evil's retreat]

"It's actually an elemental hero..."

Although Youzhi is only a half-hearted Yu-Gi-Oh fan, he has heard of the hero decks, especially the elemental heroes, which are the main monsters of the second-generation protagonists and are as famous as the Black Magician and Blue-Eyes White Dragon of the first generation.

He just vaguely remembered that the hero deck had to rely on the fusion of two monsters to exert its combat effectiveness, and it seemed that no one in this world had ever done this. However, specific evolution stones could be used to evolve the elves into a fusion form.

"Wait a minute, you said your name is Yuan Ying."

You Zhi suddenly noticed an interesting point.

The red-haired girl froze for a moment, then her eyes wandered, pretending not to care: "What's wrong? Can't I call myself that?"

"Of course, I just want to know if this is your real name or a code name. After all, to say that there is no connection between Yuan Ying and the Elemental Heroes is deceiving myself. But to say that this name was deliberately chosen for the Elemental Heroes..."

"That's right, my parents named me because they liked the Elemental Hero, and I also happened to capture the spirit of the Elemental Hero. This is the connection of fate, isn't it?"

Yuan Ying saw that he couldn't fool people, so he just gave up.

You Zhi said: "I didn't say no. In fact, the name 'Yuan Ying' is quite nice, even if you don't associate it with an elemental hero."

Upon hearing this, Yuan Ying blushed slightly. She hooked a strand of hair with her fingers and twirled it around, saying, "Thank you. This is the first time someone has said that."

"You're welcome."

"But even so, I won't let you down. Giving it your all is the only way to show respect to the trainer!"

"It's fitting. Go, Goblin Assault Force."

Four green-skinned monster uncles holding metal rods appeared on the field, laughing strangely, giving off a very evil feeling.

"Electro uses Lightning Flash!"
