June 10th, early in the morning.

"Good morning, Mihara City! First time we met, please advise me—"

The two energetic golden retrievers jumped off the tram and intoxicated to take a breath of the air of the new city.

However, Xiaojie's intoxication is obviously not as good as his sister's, at least he is not embarrassed to shout at the crowded station for more advice.

And Xiao Ye and Xiao Tian, who were walking behind, glanced at each other helplessly, and could only come together with them under the strange gazes of others.

The teammates you choose want to love each other while crying.

And when the last companion also got out of the car, the four young people, including Xiao Tian, showed sympathetic eyes very unanimously.

"Mr. Xinghai...... You look like it's hot. ”

A silver-haired young man with sunglasses, masks, hats, and coats stood in the heat wave of midsummer, his ice blue eyes full of grief.

"It's not that it seems to be hot, it's really hot. ”

It's a pity that even if the heat is tearful, Xinghai can only honestly cover himself as a suspicious person, otherwise it won't just be a matter of heat - he will be squashed into a sea of stars by the people who recognize him.

There are eleven days left for the start of the Quartz League competition. After the hard training period before the game, the four of them left Zhenxin Town by train with Xinghai and came to Mihara Primeval_City Mihara_City City, the host city of the Quartz Alliance.

The city is located on the Quartz Plateau in the Kanto region and is the capital of the Pokémon League. The name of the city means "three primary colors" - the origin and core of all colors.

As one of the most prosperous cities in the Alliance, Mihara City is the political center of the Kanto region, and it is also the largest and most populous city in the Pokémon Alliance. Major meetings of various departments of the Pokémon Alliance are often held in Mihara City, so the security system of Mihara City is strict and perfect, and entering the city requires complex security checks - the suspicious person Mr. Xinghai has also been frequently stopped because of this, three steps, one small card, five steps and one big card, and his extraordinary travel speed is only slightly inferior to that of the Tutai Turtle, and his expression seems to be a little like putting the investigator's license on his face.

Of course, Xinghai didn't come to Sanyuan City this time for any official business. Perhaps when newcomers participate in the first competition, it is already a common practice for parents to go to watch the battle, and in order to watch this quartz alliance, Xinghai specially took a long vacation, and he will stay in Mihara City until the end of the competition - maybe he used up most of the investigator's annual leave in advance.

Although Yuka also wants to watch Xiaotian's game, the next movie she takes is about to start filming, so she has to say goodbye to her son in tears. Xiaojie and Xiaoling also said that their grandfather would be there to watch the game, but they would arrive a little later in Sanyuan City.

"Where are we going next?" Xiao Jie, who was walking at the front, turned to face the crowd and jumped backwards, "I remember that the Quartz Alliance's player village is quite far from here." ”

"Well, the athletes' village is on the outskirts of the red zone, and it takes about an hour to take the subway from here. Xiao Ye nodded, "But the Player Village hasn't opened yet, so let's stay at the Pokémon Center first." ”

"It's not open yet?" Xiao Ling had long wanted to see the appearance of the Quartz Alliance Players' Village, and was suddenly a little frustrated when she heard this.

"The Players' Village is usually open three days before the start of the competition, but this year it should be the 18th. Xinghai smiled and answered Xiao Ling's doubts, "However, there should be a lot of trainers who have come to Sanyuan City now, and if you don't hurry up, you may not be able to grab the place in the Pokémon Center dormitory." ”

Twenty minutes later, Xiao Ling was extremely glad that she had chosen to run all the way - they had grabbed the last five-person room in this Pokémon Center.

"Looks like we're lucky, I thought we'd have to run all over the Pokémon centers in Sanyuan. Xiaojie happily sat on his bed.

"Let's go to the front desk and sign up later. As a reliable adult, Xinghai certainly hasn't forgotten the most important thing, "Don't use the wrong ID card." ”

"Of course, you can't be mistaken, after all, we are announcing that we are not going to participate. Xiao Ling took the initiative to speak, but the words made Xiao Jie embarrassed for a while - what to say "external claim", the so-called "outside" is clearly just a few children in Zhenxin Town.

Although the four of them all told Ash and the others that they would not participate, and even Xinghai helped to complete the lie, of course this was not the case. They will compete, but instead of using their original identity, they will replace it with identity protection information. In other words, instead of using your real name, you will use the "codename" in your identity protection information.

If Freelance Trainers have been involved in battles against illegal organizations, are well-known in their fighting methods, and don't want criminals to find out their identities through League Tournaments, using Identity Protection is the best option. In previous years, there were many people in the league who did so, and this year there was even a seeded player who played under a code name.

The four of them obtained the Alliance's identity protection permission after the Artificial Phoenix King Project, and of course they had to make the best use of it at this time to ensure their own safety. So, the four of them took turns borrowing Xinghai's three-piece set of masks, sunglasses, and hats, and covered their faces tightly to register, so scared that Joey almost thought that it was a group demonstration organized by criminals to call the police on the spot.

After the registration was completed, everyone began to move freely. Xiao Jie and Xiao Ling immediately rushed out of the door, saying that they were going to the famous Three Divine Bird Altar for sightseeing. At the invitation of his father, Xinghai, Xiao Tian decided to go to the training ground for combat practice - although the Golden Retriever siblings firmly believed that Xinghai would propose a battle instead of taking to the streets because he couldn't stand the heat of the Pretender's three-piece suit. And Xiao Ye also said goodbye to everyone and embarked on a completely different direction from the others.

The urban layout of Mihara City is approximately circular, divided into three fan-shaped areas by wide radial streets, named after red, yellow, and blue. Each ward has an altar dedicated to the sacred bird, and if you look at it from above the city, you will find that the three altars can be connected to form a standard triangle. Collectively known as the Altar of the Three Sacred Birds, they are one of the most famous spots in Mihara City, where the totems of the flame bird, lightning bird, and frozen bird are enshrined, respectively.

In the center of the intersection of the three fans, there is an ancient castle-like building called the Hall of Champions, where the previous champions of each region leave their signatures and video materials, which can be described as a sacred place for trainers. Underneath the Hall of Champions is a huge library, the National Library of the Alliance, which is said to contain books that record the entire history of the Alliance from its birth to the present for 400 years.

This magnificent underground library was Night's first destination in Mihara City.

When tracking down the Phoenix King's feathers on Red Lotus Island, Sayo once heard a young man from the Radiant Society named Luke say something like this: "The Rebellion of the Eclipse of the Sun will repeat itself sooner or later, and there is not much time left." ”

The meaning of this sentence is too ominous for Xiao Ye to forget. If the Eclipse Rebellion is translated as "a chaos or battle that occurred during a solar eclipse," then Luke means "such a disturbance has occurred in history and will be repeated in the future."

Xiao Ye had read a world history textbook in elementary school, and there was no record of the catastrophe during the solar eclipse. Maybe Luke was just talking nonsense—unlikely, he didn't have the need to tell such a lie in a serious tone—or maybe disaster had happened, only to be artificially covered up?

Then, if you visit the National Library of the Alliance, which is said to contain the world's most extensive knowledge, you may be able to find something.

Pokémon are forbidden to enter the library, and Sayo can only leave Poké Balls and reluctant Little Pichu at the doorway storage. Fortunately, the Alliance National Library is one of the most well-known libraries in the country, and it has prepared a place for Pokémon to rest and entertain. Seeing Pichu running happily on the running wheel like a hamster, Xiao Ye relented and walked underground alone.

The National Library of the Union has seven floors, and the first five floors are free to read. Xiao Ye tried to look up the keyword "Eclipse Rebellion", but did not get the desired result.

The term was not stored in the library's computers used to consult books, and the answer I received was "I don't know" when I asked the librarian. Xiao Ye was not surprised by this, since the alliance was likely to deliberately erase the traces of this matter, it was naturally impossible to find anything by conventional means. Fortunately, she knew from Luke that the time point of the past Eclipse Rebellion occurred about 500 years ago, so let's try to read this part of the history books first.

So, Xiao Ye came to the self-study area with a large pile of thick history books, opened the notepad that had been prepared and recorded it carefully, just like a middle school student who was about to take an exam. It's a pity, just like there is no way to get a high score on the exam, it is too difficult to find the submerged information in the complicated history, until the sun begins to set in the west, and Xiao Ye still can't find the information related to the Eclipse Sun Rebellion, so she has to temporarily go home and fight again tomorrow.

- Compared to the content of the history books, it was Pichu who gave Saya a greater sense of impact. Xiao Ye never expected that until she walked out of the library after a long day's research, Pichu was still running happily on the running wheel.

Even the Snow Boy galloped along.

I'm afraid that they have already run three marathons together, which makes people wonder if they were the left and right feet of Philippides in their last life.

Soon after Saya returned to the Pokémon Center, everyone returned one after another before sunset and were able to have dinner together. Then, Xinghai beckoned everyone to return to the room together, took out their laptops, and started the Xinghai lecture hall without warning.

There are a total of eight seeded players in this quartz league. Each of them has the best of the freelance trainers, and with the status of the seeds keeping them from meeting each other before the round of 32, these eight seeded players are undoubtedly key targets for the other trainers.

Before the Player Village opens, everyone will stay in the Pokémon Center for eight days. Xinghai said with a smile that he would explain a seeded player every day, and he could finish it all before moving into the player village.

"Oh, can we really sit in on the audit?" Although he said a question, Xiao Jie had already grabbed the back of Xinghai's chair and stared at the computer screen, and he didn't mean to be polite at all, "Mr. Xinghai, you are really too generous." I believe that if you start a class, you can earn at least 100,000 yuan in one class, and now you actually gave us more than 100,000 elf coins for nothing, maybe you will be able to save enough money to buy a car in a hurry——"

"That's an exaggeration. Xinghai was made to laugh and cry by Xiaojie's conversion method.

"Brother, I don't agree with your statement, how can a car have a Mr. Xinghai worth a lot. Xiao Ling said righteously.

"Well, too. ”

Xinghai: "......"

He felt that if he continued to talk like this, he would be sold in the minds of the golden retriever brothers and sisters from the course to himself.

Xiao Ya was about to laugh twice in response to the situation, when he suddenly found that the pichu on his shoulder had turned into a pufferfish, and his little face was full of anger. It took a long time for Xiao Ye to react...... Pichu is still thinking about the first time she and Xinghai met and fought in the underground of Rainbow City, maybe they have labeled Xinghai as an enemy so far, and when they see everyone laughing and laughing with Xinghai, they will turn into a discharge rat on the spot.

Without waiting for Xiao Ye to figure out how to appease little Pichu, the silver-haired young man on the other side actually noticed Pichu's puffing expression under the cover of the dazzling hair color of the two golden retrievers, and he didn't know which tendon in his brain was wrong, so he reached out and poked Pichu's soft cheeks.

Then he was bitten by Pichu.

"Alright, let's get down to business. After the people turned over on their backs, Xinghai finally didn't forget the reason for gathering everyone, and tapped the table with his fingers printed with a few small tooth marks, "Let's start today's player analysis." ”

The window in the screen flickered, frozen in a photo that Xiao Ya was familiar with.

The No. 1 seed player of the 381st Quartz League, Kyoji Kusama.
