The live broadcast of the Padia Pokémon League Champion Test has ended.
However, many Pokémon battle enthusiasts stared at the black screen of the TV/computer for a long time without coming back to their senses.
Some people may think that their reactions are exaggerated, but only they themselves know what it means to be able to watch such a wonderful battle from beginning to end, which can be said to be almost better than most competitions.
Even in the Sinnoh region, the "Champion Defending Battle" where the Four Heavenly Kings challenge each other every year is not as exciting, tense, and thrilling as this championship test.
There is a visible gap between the Four Heavenly Kings and the regional champions.
Every year, the "Championship Defense Battle" in the Sinnoh region that is open to the public and even sells tickets is basically just a carnival for fans of the regional league champion, Takeran.
Well, it just depends on how Zhulan can crush the Four Heavenly Kings and continue to defend the championship this year.
On the contrary, the "Championship Test" or "Championship Series" live broadcast that the Padiya Alliance suddenly launched without any announcement was a real feast for the eyes of these battle fans.
Not only will the battles against the Four Heavenly Kings and the final challenge for the chief champion be broadcast live from beginning to end, but there will also be real-time commentary from gym leaders.
Although the opponent inserted advertisements several times with almost "inch-stopping" behavior, the excitement of the battle was real.
After taking a while to come back to their senses from the satisfaction of enjoying a high-quality battle, some of these battle fans have begun to review the details of the battle that lasted for half a day.
When replaying the video, some people were shocked to find that each of the Four Heavenly Kings, even Ye Ci who was the chief champion.
Before, during, or at the end of the battle, one person was mentioned more or less.
The lines are extremely similar, basically "No wonder you are that person's student."
This instantly made these people curious about who "that person" was.
The student must be referring to the new champion trainer Nimo, but who is "that person"?
Nimo seems to be currently a student at the Grape Academy in Zhuotai City in the Padilla region.
Zhuotai City, Grape College.
Luo Mu had no idea what was brewing on the trainer forum.
After watching the championship test, he rode Dragonite back here.
Walking around the campus, I watched the purple features of the Grape College slowly being replaced by orange, the features of the Orange College.
His expression showed some regret.
Transferring from Grape Academy to Orange Academy also means that I have been working here for almost a year, and the time I have spent as a champion trainer has already exceeded a year.
In just one year, my experience has not only not become dull, but has become even more exciting.
The farm is growing, the students are growing, my mentality, and the strength of my partners are also growing steadily.
“It’s been a very fruitful year.”
Hearing Luo Mu's emotional voice, Zygarde Core did not have any special reaction, but continued to look at the surrounding environment curiously.
"I see. The academy you visit every few days looks like this."
"It's no wonder that you humans were able to catch up and become the largest "race" on this planet by systematically gathering youngsters for training."
The gaze of the invisible Zygarde Core lingered on some of the students who were walking by, his eyes full of interest.
Its duties are to observe, monitor and maintain, and it also has an interest in observing things like this.
Precisely because it has seen so much, its mentality is more stable and less extreme than those young "core" ones.
——Although humans are still causing trouble now, compared to the chaotic past, they don’t seem so annoying anymore.
Back in the Kalos region, there was a stupid guy who, in order to revive a life, created a horrific device at the cost of a large number of lives.
The final result is naturally a tragic ending.
Compared to these big jobs, some of the things we do now are just child's play.
After a brief thought, the Zygarde Core asked Luo Mu through telepathy: "I plan to split some cells and place them on this campus. Do you have any objections?"
"Please do as you please."
Luo Mu nodded slightly, with no intention of stopping the Zygarde Core at all.
For example, in the Kalos region, their cells are probably everywhere, and they only function to monitor the ecological environment.
If that's the case, what reason do I have to stop it?
Moreover, looking at the appearance of the Buddhist Zygarde Core on its shoulder, it doesn't seem to have any human ethical concepts, and there is no sign of being a lolita complex.
If it wants to install a few cameras, then go ahead and install them.
Anyway, Zygarde cells will spread throughout the Padia region sooner or later.
After verbally mentioning it to Luo Mu, the Zygarde Core began to prepare to split its cells.
But hearing the bad sounds such as "muffled groans" and "straining" in his ears, Luo Mu hesitated again and again, and asked in a low voice: "How about I find a place to sit down, and you come down and split quietly?"
Otherwise, even if he forced himself not to think in that direction, Luo Mu would involuntarily fear that the Zygarde Core would be pulled on his shoulder.
Even Luo Mu could not avoid this kind of psychological fear.
"No, this way I can concentrate better."
Although somewhat confused, the Zygarde Core nodded and agreed to Luo Mu's proposal, and also put forward his own requests.
“Remember to find a place with a wide view and sunshine!”
Luo Mu finally chose the library of Grape College.
Although the books are stored indoors, in order to fully stimulate students' interest in reading and improve reading comfort, Ye Ci also prepared an area where students can read books in the sun and with natural light when designing the library.
This can not only protect the eyes, but also make people feel not stuffy indoors.
The Zygarde Core can enjoy plenty of sunshine there, and Luo Mu can also read a book to kill time.
There were no classes today, and I guess after watching the championship test, Shinji and the others were not in any mood to accept my special tutoring.
Instead of making yourself work overtime, you might as well find a book, make a cup of tea, kill time and wait for Nemo to recover before going to the appointment.
Luo Mu thought so as he flipped through the "New Edition of Pokémon Psychology" to find out if there were any cases and solutions similar to the female turtle Tailebagos.
Grape College is currently on holiday before the start of the new semester, and there are not many students staying on campus. The scattered students walking around the campus today are probably either boarding students or those who are interested in the game and want a good atmosphere, so they spontaneously organized themselves to watch the game in the college.
The reading environment is quite relaxing.
The message sent to Ye Ci has been shown as read. Thinking that Nimo can understand what he means, Luo Mu immersed himself in the ocean of knowledge.
Even the occasional "power" noise of the Zygarde Core beside him was automatically filtered out by his ears and brain.
But at this moment, an unexpected person approached him unnoticed.
A female voice with a hint of laughter sounded from behind Luo Mu.
"You're actually reading in the library at this time?"
Luo Mu paused in turning the pages and looked behind him with an unchanged expression.
The smiling face belonging to Leihe came into view.
"You act so calm, it's really boring~"
Lei He, who originally intended to be naughty, did not get the reaction she expected, and her smile faded a little.
In fact, if she looked closely, she would find that Luo Mu had become stiff and his pupils were slightly dilated, and he was obviously frightened.
It's just that he has good control over his body and won't show his vulnerable side in front of others, so he looks like nothing's wrong and not scared at all.
Luo Mu was indeed frightened by Lei He who appeared behind him like a female ghost, but the other party only appeared behind him to say hello. He was stiff for only a second before he recovered.
Even so, he still asked Lei He unhappily, "What's the matter?"
"Yes, I did. I was planning to look for you after school started, but I didn't expect to see you in the library."
Lei He pretended not to hear the dissatisfaction in Luo Mu's tone and smiled a little more.
"I watched the championship test, it was quite exciting. Your student was really amazing. He was able to defeat the chairman in the end!"
"But you, shouldn't you be taking the child to celebrate? Why are you hiding here reading a book?"
"——Or are you so moved that you are hiding here quietly wiping away tears of joy?"
Lei He's tone became teasing again.
The latest novel is published first on Liu9shuba!
"You're overthinking. I have my own arrangements for this matter. You should have received the text message from the principal, right?"
Closing the book, Luo Mu took a sip of the slightly cold tea.
"Oh~ So that's what's going on."
Recalling the message that Principal Clavel sent to the group of teachers on campus, Leihe said meaningfully.
"Although I haven't taught that little girl many lessons, I can vaguely imagine that this is probably what she is looking forward to the most."
"It seems that I am meddling in other people's business, Mr. Luo Mu~"
Luo Mu did not respond, but changed the subject.
"So, what do you want to see me about?"
"Now that I'm here, I might as well just say it."
Among the teachers at Grape Academy, Luo Mu and Lei He did not have too many interactions.
But if he had to ask what the other party would come to him for, it would probably be that matter if it was not beyond his expectations.
"Well, since you want to hear it, I'll tell you."
"Regarding the matter of the Treasure of Disaster, after my diligent investigation over this period of time, I have made a new discovery~"
Leihe sat down next to Luo Mu, and scared the invisible Zygarde Core so much that it quickly jumped to the other side.
As Buddhist as it is, it glared at Leihe, the rude woman.
Unfortunately, since it had not yet lifted its invisibility, neither Luo Mu, who had been reading a book, nor Lei He, who came later, knew where it was.
This glare is like staring at a blind man.
Lei He took out a small notebook from the bag on her waist, turned to a certain page, and showed it to Luo Mu.
"Are you interested in information about the clear water that purifies all filth?"
While listening to Lei He talking, Luo Mu's eyes fell on the notebook.
The long list of records did not interest him; only the portrait at the end caught his attention.
Leihe explained with a smile: "The legendary Pokémon, Suicune."
"Legend has it that it is the incarnation of the north wind, and has the power to instantly purify dirty, muddy water. I wonder if it can purify the filth on the Treasure of Disaster?"
"I've investigated, and its activities are mostly in the Johto region. Although there are a few sightings in the Padiya region, I think the probability of finding it in the Johto region is very high."
"We have also figured out the exact location of the four great disaster treasures and where the stakes are located."
"How about it? Do you want to go with me to the Johto region to find Suicune, obtain the "clear water that purifies all filth", and then unseal the four disaster treasures?"
Although she is not sure whether Suicune can purify the curse, evil and desire on the pile, the other party is a legendary elf related to the purification anecdote that Rehe has investigated so far, and she thinks it is worth a try.
Lei He thought that Luo Mu would not reject her proposal.
But to her surprise, after hearing the whole story, Luo Mu shook his head and said, "No, there's no need."
Lei He: “?”
Seeing the confusion in Lei He's eyes, Luo Mu explained: "Do you know how much effort it takes to chase the elusive Water Lord?"
He remembered that there was a person in the Johto region who was almost fanatically chasing after Suicune, and he didn't know how long he had been looking for him.
Luo Mu didn’t think that Lei He had a way to find the other party, and even if she did, he didn’t know how long it would take.
Not to mention, Luo Mu felt that it was still a question whether Suicune could purify the filth contaminated by the Pillar and the Treasure of Disaster.
Before in the Johto region, he met Suicune who asked him for help, and eventually brought Brother and Sister Hu Hu back to the farm.
At that time, they were severely burned by the fire, and Suicune had to ask Luo Mu for help.
——It couldn’t even cure a burn from Suicune, Luo Mu deeply doubted whether it could purify filth.
Moreover, the connection between Tapu Fin-Fin and the Padia Sea is becoming closer and closer, and its strength is recovering day by day. In the future, it will even become more powerful because of its exclusive use.
The purifying water of Tapu Fin-Fin is enough, there is no need to look for Suicune.
But Luo Mu did not tell Lei He about this immediately.
Based on his understanding of this person, he was afraid that the next second after he mentioned Tapu Fin-Fin, she would drag him to Manpadiya to find a partner.
After perfunctorily answering Lei He with "I have my own way" and letting her focus on finding the location of the stake, Luo Mu looked up at the time.
It’s five o’clock in the afternoon, it’s almost time.
After registering the unfinished books with the administrator for borrowing, Luo Mu took the Zygarde Core that had jumped onto his shoulder and went straight to the agreed place with Dragonite who had returned to the farm earlier.
After making sure he was adequately prepared, Luo Mu left from the nearby Grape Academy exit and headed straight to the busy city center of Zhuotai.
Here, a central square called "Plaza del Sol" stands in the very center of the city.
At this time in the Sun Square, Clavel, who had been notified in advance by Luo Mu, led the teachers to clear the area, and the battle area in the middle was completely empty.
Some well-informed students and teachers have gathered nearby, including some gym owners who are "just passing by".
From time to time, passers-by would stop and look at the square curiously, wondering if some kind of battle event would be held here today.
After Luo Mu had a brief exchange with Clavel, he slowly walked into the battlefield under the attention of people around the square.
He will wait here for Nimo to arrive.
Because what will follow will be a battle between master and apprentice, or in other words, a battle between two champion-level trainers!
After the battle, Neemo will become a trainer on her own.
However, many Pokémon battle enthusiasts stared at the black screen of the TV/computer for a long time without coming back to their senses.
Some people may think that their reactions are exaggerated, but only they themselves know what it means to be able to watch such a wonderful battle from beginning to end, which can be said to be almost better than most competitions.
