In these three days alone, the Washermaid and the Goblin, who appeared the most times, each rose by 3 levels, and the rest of the elves also rose to varying degrees.
Just as Songye had said when he persuaded Youzhi, it would cost a lot of money to hire a professional sparring partner at the Pokémon Training Gym, but when you become the owner of a gym, a large number of free sparring partners will come to you on their own initiative. Although the quality varies, the advantage is that they are available in large quantities.
Of course, You Zhi knew very well that this effect could only be achieved by being a temporary substitute. If he was asked to be the gym owner for a long time, he would definitely not do it.
Given the number of challengers, the main battle Pokémon alone could not support so many duels. Even in these three days, half of the duels were fought using gym Pokémon.
In addition, due to the responsibilities of the gym leader, some duels must be won in moderation, deliberately allowing the Pokémon to be defeated by the opponent. Once this habit is formed, the Pokémon will lose its edge, making it useless at the critical moment when it needs to fight desperately.
If you act too much, it will become instinct.
Therefore, most gym owners will treat backup Pokémon and main battle Pokémon differently. When they send out main battle Pokémon, they will try their best to win, but when they send out backup Pokémon, they will most likely let the game go.
"The gym's reputation has been improving recently. The comment with the most likes is 'The acting gym leader doesn't rely solely on Pokémon battles; he often sets up small traps that test your tactics, so every challenge is rewarding.' The second most likes is 'Many of the Pokémon the acting gym leader uses are cute girls. I love watching cute girls fight, and I hope they'll appear more often.' The third most likes is 'The apron dragon girl is so cool.'"
Songye finished reading the feedback on the website with an expressionless face, then looked up at Youzhi and said, "You'd better leave quickly. I don't dare to keep you any longer. If you stay any longer, the position of the museum leader might have to be replaced."
Although the hype of saving Manjin City has passed and the flow of people has indeed declined, the rate of decline is much lower than expected. Songye really doesn't dare to let Youzhi continue to work part-time.
Some gym owners are dedicated to their duties, love to fight with others and are very professional. Some gym owners simply treat it as a job to make a living. Although they don't neglect their duties, they don't have any enthusiasm either. They are just doing their job as usual.
Songye is the latter. Too many challengers are a trouble for him. Even if the prize money will increase, not everyone thinks that the more money the better. At least he doesn't have the motivation to do so.
"What a pity. If you want to slack off again, you can come find me."
"Okay, okay. I'll find you when I want to take a vacation. Don't refuse then."
It was just an occasional thing, and Songye was happy to have someone take over. After saying that, he took out a piece of paper and said, "This is the location of the person you want to divine, Nobuhiko, the owner of the Manjin City Karate Dojo."
You Zhi took the note and glanced at it. There was a picture of a luxury cruise ship on it. After a moment of recollection, he suddenly realized, "He is now on a ship heading to Qiancong City."
In the game, you cannot reach the Kanto District directly from the Johto District. You can only take a cruise ship from Asagi City to Vermillion City in the Kanto District. After activation, you can use the elf's secret skill "flying" to teleport between cities.
Songye said, "That's probably true. After all, Asagi City is the only city in the Johto region that has a port."
You Zhi was in a dilemma now. The other party had probably just made up his mind to come to Leibo Mountain to practice. He couldn't just go to the port to block him, right?
Although the owner of the karate dojo will definitely not refuse a challenge given his character, he may not be willing to give away the elves after being defeated. After all, the other party's state of mind at this moment must be very different from that after practicing in Leibo Mountain for a period of time. I can't just snatch it away, wouldn't that be Team Rocket?
After thinking about it, You Zhi decided to wait for a while, and wait until the other party entered Leibo Mountain to practice before visiting him. At that time, he would pretend to meet him accidentally. The other party might feel that they were destined to be together, and in a good mood, he would give the elf.
"Please help me divine again. Is there any abnormality in the Angry Lake north of Kaji Town?"
"You're really rude," Songye complained, but didn't refuse. "These conditions are too vague to be confirmed by divination. You'd better provide more details."
"Then let's change the request and divine if there are any spirits in the Lake of Rage that have undergone any abnormal changes."
According to the game setting, there will be a red Gyarados that is forced to evolve because of Team Rocket's experiment, but now Team Rocket's conspiracy has been stopped by Youzhi before it can unfold, and this plot is likely to disappear.
Songye took out a piece of paper and began to read the divination. After a while, he opened his eyes, talked about the white paper in his hand, and said, "I'm afraid I will disappoint you."
"Never mind, I guessed it."
Just when Youzhi was wondering if there were other plot elves, a staff member came over to report that someone wanted to meet with the two of them.
You Zhi and Song Ye looked at each other and saw curiosity in each other's eyes. After all, although the two had established a life-and-death friendship after experiencing the catastrophe of the phantom demon, they had nothing in common other than that.
"Let him in."
After a while, a middle-aged man with blond hair and a green windbreaker walked in and introduced himself. "I'm Ganlang, the leader of the Battle Tower and the founder of the Battle Development Zone. I've come here to invite you two to the Battle Development Zone's opening ceremony. I also welcome your support for our activities."
Songye thought for a moment, then said uncertainly, "I remember the Battle Frontier was a special town in the Sinnoh region that specifically encourages trainers to duel with each other, and it has established different duel rules and prize redemption systems."
Langlang nodded and said, "Our headquarters is indeed in Sinnoh, but we decided two years ago to expand our branches to other regions, and the Kanto region happens to be under my charge."
As he spoke, he took out two golden cards and said, "These are VIP cards specially prepared for you two. Holders of these cards can enjoy discounts in the battle frontier area and have priority when launching challenges without having to queue."
Songye said, "I'm sorry, as a gym leader, I can't accept gifts from strangers privately. If I'm caught, I'll be stripped of my position as gym leader."
"Don't worry," said Ganlang, "we've already obtained the Alliance's approval. All gym owners in the Johto region will receive a VIP card. There's no money in the card, so it's not really a gift."
You Zhi said: "I'm not the owner, I'm just a temporary replacement."
"I've been watching your matches for the past two days. In my opinion, you are fully qualified to receive this VIP card. Especially the tactical wisdom you demonstrated in your matches against challengers is far more valuable than relying on powerful elves to win."
Chapter 136 An Unintentional Result
Youzhi changed his mind and decided to go to Asagi City to challenge the Steel-type Gym next.
It's not that he wants to follow the order of the game's plot. The key is that the owner of the karate dojo is still on the ship coming to Johto District, and "Crimson Gyarados" has disappeared. There is not much point in going to Kaji Town. On the contrary, the battle frontier is right next to Asagi City. It's rare for the owner to personally send an invitation, so he has to give him face. It's a good opportunity to attend the opening ceremony.
According to the setting of the Pokémon game, there is a Moomo Farm between Kaji Town and Asagi City, which specializes in raising Milcanthropes and producing "Moomoo Milk". Starting from this generation, Moomo Milk has become the most common recovery item besides store products, which can restore 100 HP of Pokémon.
You Zhi originally thought that once the elves in this world turned into spirits, Moo Moo Farm would no longer exist. After all, the milk squeezed from the elves would soon turn into spiritual energy and could not be preserved at all. However, when he passed by the corresponding place, he found that there was still a cattle farm, but it was called Oxygen Farm.
[Chemical Beast Oxen (2 Stars) Wind]
[Lineage: Fire]
【Level: 8】
【Talent: Weak】
[Attack power: 0 (0)]
【Defense Strength: 2100 (1890)】
[Beast Tribe, Effect: Slightly]
On the farm, a group of oxygen cows with bodies as crystal-clear as jade and horns that occasionally emit sparks are strolling leisurely. Occasionally, they lower their heads to eat feed at the trough. At this time, some of the oxygen cows will drop fragments of chips from the hexagonal square holes on their foreheads, and the farm workers will collect all the chips.
You Zhi went forward to ask and found out that this thing can be used to make spirit crystal stones, and spirit crystal stones can restore the spirit power of elves.
At first glance, it seems that this thing is very useful, but if you think about it, you will know that in non-emergency situations, as long as the Pokémon is put back into the Pokémon Card, the Pokémon will automatically restore its spiritual power. In emergency situations, trainers can also use spell cards to restore the Pokémon's spiritual power. There is no need to spend this money unless you encounter a critical situation where both the Pokémon and the trainer are short of spiritual power.
But how could ordinary people encounter such a special situation? The world as a whole is still very peaceful. There is no war, and ordinary people live a peaceful life. And the use of props is not allowed in duels between trainers.
Therefore, it cannot be said that Spirit Crystals are completely useless, but their application is very narrow. Similar to an earthquake emergency kit, it is indeed very useful when it is needed, but most trainers do not have the opportunity to use it. Every time they think of it, they will find that it has expired.
In addition, unlike Pokémon, the elves in this world cannot reproduce, and therefore cannot expand their population. Fortunately, Oxygen Bull is not a rare elf, and it is not difficult to catch thousands of them. There is also no need to use elf cards to capture them. Oxygen Bull has a gentle temperament, and if you provide them with good food and water and keep them in captivity, they will be obedient.
Oxygen Farm may not expect to develop into a large livestock farming group, but as a small workshop, it is able to survive very comfortably. Relying on its unique specialty products, no one else can compete with it.
You Zhi first asked the salesperson to buy three spirit crystals, and then asked to go in for a visit. The other party readily agreed and collected the ticket money - Oxygen Farm already has this service.
Youzhi was not interested in the oxygen cow, but he remembered that there was a hidden item called "gold beads" on the farm in the game. Although he was not sure what the corresponding situation would be in reality, and there was no guarantee that the corresponding treasure would exist, since he was already here, he might as well treat it as a trip.
So, he took out the spiritual power fluctuation detector, which was two metal rods, and wandered around the farm.
Although the staff found it strange, they did not step in to stop it. After all, they had seen many strange tourists, and this one was nothing. They just needed to not touch the elf.
You Zhi originally had no hope for this, but after just a few steps, the metal rod began to vibrate. He hurriedly looked for the source based on the change in the frequency of the vibration.
Three minutes later, he hooked a ring out from under the haystack.
"This is really strange. Why would the spiritual power fluctuation detector sense the ring? This isn't a real treasure hunting machine."
You Zhi observed it carefully and found that there was a faint spiritual power in the gem inlaid on the ring, but the spiritual power was very weak and it was probably not a treasure.
"Forget it, let's send it to the Asagi City Police Station later."
If he had picked up a gold bead, he would probably have kept it as a treasure, but rings usually have special meaning to their owners, so there is no need to be greedy for such a small profit.
After that, You Zhi wandered around the farm for more than an hour, but found nothing else and had to leave with regret.
South of the Oxygen Farm is Asagi City, the third largest city in the Johto region. It is a port city and the shining lighthouse standing on the coast can be seen from afar.
Youzhi searched his memory for game plots related to this city. One was about finding medicine for the gym leader Ami, and the other was the luxury cruise ship Shuiliu. This ship departed from Johto to Vermillion City in Kanto District on Mondays and Fridays, returned from Kanto on Wednesdays and Sundays, and rested on the other days.
"Oh right, there seems to be an NPC here that exchanges Pokémons. I remember trading the Giant Claw Crab for the Naughty Bullet."
However, after experiencing the Cyber Dragon in Kikyo City and the Monk Warrior in Manjin City, Youzhi no longer had any interest in other people's Pokémon, especially since the exchange location was in the NPC's home.
The department store in Manjin City is fine, after all, it is a unique landmark building, but the NPC's home corresponds to a densely packed group of houses and buildings in reality, and it is impossible to tell which one it is. Youzhi is too lazy to go back to Songye Divination to confirm.
He was about to ask passersby for the location of the police station when he suddenly saw a lost and found notice on a telephone pole. The picture of the item drawn on it was a ring!
You Zhi took a look and saw the contact's phone number and home address. He simply entered the phone number to contact the owner. When the other party heard that he had picked up the ring, he sounded very excited and asked him not to leave and to come immediately.
Twenty minutes later, a young woman in her twenties hurried over. She first looked around the intersection, then locked onto You Zhi standing under the telephone pole and ran over.
"Excuse me, is this Ms. Lucy?"
"Yes, I was the one who answered your call just now. Excuse me, did you really find my ring?"
You Zhi didn't answer, but redialed the number. After hearing the ringing of the other party's phone, he took out the ring and said, "Look carefully, is this the ring you lost?"
"Yes, this is my wedding ring! My husband and I went on our honeymoon trip, but we lost it the day before we were due to return home. We couldn't find it no matter how hard we looked. Thank you so much, I'm so grateful. I don't know what else to say."
After receiving it, Ms. Lucy burst into tears of joy, with tears in her eyes, and bowed to You Zhi repeatedly to express her gratitude.
After a while, she calmed down and thought about the thank-you gift. After all, the lost and found notice promised a "substantial reward." She was about to mention this and ask for the bank card number when she saw You Zhi's travel backpack. After a moment's thought, she asked, "Excuse me, are you a Pokémon trainer?"
Chapter 137 Catwoman
Unlike Pokémon trainers who carry shiny Poké Balls around their waists, the Pokémon trainers in this world simply take cards out of the void, so there's nothing unusual to see just by looking at their outfit.
In addition, a trainer's duel spiritual power is an extremely restrained energy and cannot be released like the true qi in martial arts. Therefore, without the use of instruments, it is impossible to sense the opponent's spiritual power. The scene of being shocked as soon as you meet someone, "This boy is so young, but he is an eight-star strongman" is impossible to appear.
However, there is still a huge difference between experienced trainers and ordinary tourists, especially for a tough guy like Youzhi who has traveled to several Pokémon worlds. His temperament is different from that of ordinary people, so Ms. Lucy asked.
After receiving Youzhi's frank admission, Ms. Lucy said with regret, "I used to be a trainer too. I embarked on a journey of training with the goal of becoming a Pokémon Master, but in the end I only got three badges. Later, I faced the reality and had to give up my dream. I became a coach at a Pokémon training gym.
"Other Pokémon are fine, but there's one Pokémon that's exceptional. It would be a shame if she just lived a mediocre life with me. I originally planned to send her to an exchange center and find an outstanding trainer for her.
"Speaking of which, the gem inlaid in my husband and my wedding rings was found by her. It's not a rare treasure, just beautiful to look at. But you found it today. Perhaps this is fate's guidance. I want to entrust this elf to you."
After saying that, she reached out and pulled out a Pokémon card from the void. With a flash of light, she summoned a girl-pokémon in a tights with short blue hair and a tail, giving the impression of a feline.
【Moonlight Gray Cat (4 stars) Dark】
【Pedigree: Electricity】
【Level: 24】
【Talent: Fierce】
[Attack power: 1600 (1760)]
【Defense Strength: 1200 (1320)】
[Beast Warrior Tribe, Effect: N/A]
You Zhi was slightly stunned when he saw the talent level displayed by the plug-in. For an ordinary person, getting a spirit with a fierce talent is no less difficult than winning the lottery jackpot. In addition to luck, one also has to pray that the director will show mercy.
Seeing Youzhi remain silent, Ms. Lucy misunderstood and explained, "If you don't like it, you can refuse. I have another reward to thank you. But I assure you that Moonlight is truly a Pokémon with excellent talent and great potential. It's just that as a trainer, my ability is limited and I can't guide it."
"Master, meow..."
Moonlight Cang Mao looked at Lucy with a reluctant expression, and when she saw You Zhi, she had a look of anger at being looked down upon, but she didn't say anything like "I don't want to be separated from my master", so it seemed that they had already discussed it before.
"You misunderstood. I didn't mean to look down on you. Rather, I was ecstatic. Can I really accept such a precious elf? Even as a reward, it's too much." You Zhi quickly explained.
Moonlight Cangmao has a simple personality, and he felt a little embarrassed when he heard that the other party valued him so much.
Ms. Lucy said, "I was planning to give her away anyway, and now I'm just shortening the process. Of course, I wouldn't just give her away to just anyone I meet, but you give me the impression that you're trustworthy."
You Zhi thought for a moment and asked, "You just said you wanted to send her to the exchange center. What kind of spirit did you originally want to exchange?"
Ms. Lucy was stunned for a moment, then she understood what the other party meant and quickly shook her head, saying, "That's not necessary. I don't really want to trade spirits with anyone."
"But it's not a bad thing after all. I can also take this opportunity to prove myself so that you can trust me with peace of mind."
"Then... let's go with Water. I used to live in Kikyo City, and after I get married I'm going to settle in Asagi City. The trainers here prefer Water Pokémon, but I don't have any decent Water Pokémon on hand."
After hearing this, You Zhi summoned Silent Magician and Qilizard Yihao and ordered: "You two heard it too, right? Try to catch a powerful water-type Pokémon."
The two elves nodded and ran towards the sea.
Ms. Lucy asked in surprise, "Aren't you going with us?"
"No, my elves are smarter than ordinary people. They know what to do."
Ms. Lucy still found it hard to believe. She knew that some Pokémon could perform well without the trainer's command, but that was limited to combat. Other than that, Pokémon would usually mess up once they lost the trainer's real-time instructions.
But the other party was so confident that she couldn't question him. She could only suppress her curiosity and wait patiently.
Youzhi didn't just wait there foolishly, but took the opportunity to ask the other party for information about Asagi City, especially the information about the gym leader Ami. Remember that this person's ace Pokémon in the game is Steelix.
"You've asked the right person. I've challenged the Scallion Gym several times before, but unfortunately, I failed every time. Although Ami looks cute and weak, she's actually very serious and strict about her work. It's not easy to pass her test.
