Hera is a city located in the western part of Europe.

In this city, there are Gyms, and defeating the Gym Trainers here will give you a Green Badge.

And in this city, there is also the Trainer's House, where many high-level trainers will gather to exchange their experiences or learn from each other.

Ding Zhi kept hurrying, and finally arrived in Hera City shortly after noon.

I met a lot of elves along the way, but there was nothing worth noting, and with Bobo's strength, those elves on the road could not be exercised.

The Elven Center was created by the Elven Alliance for the sole purpose of giving trainers a place to rest and rehabilitate the Elves.

As long as you have registered in the Genie Center, you can get free services in the Genie Center, while non-registered people need to pay a fee.

After Ding Zhi handed over the elf to Miss Joy, he walked to the liaison hall and made a phone call to contact the Odamaki couple who were far away in the Hoenn area.

"Oh! It's little Ding Zhi! It took so long to contact us! ”

The phone was connected, and Ye Zihua appeared in the video.

"I'm sorry, Mom, I didn't contact you until now." Ding Zhi said apologetically to Ye Zihua in the video.

"Forget it, it's okay, do you take good care of yourself?" Ye Zihua waved his hand, indicating that it didn't matter.

Ding Zhi nodded, and at the same time, Pikachu and Lucario also appeared in front of Ye Zihua.

"Pikachu, Lucario, how are you too?" Ye Zihua smiled and greeted the two elves.

"Pickup!"

"Leo!"

The two children were also very happy to see Ye Zihua, and nodded one after another.

Ye Zihua and Ding Zhi shushed for a while, Ding Zhi didn't see Ding Wenzhi, so he asked, "Where is Dad?" ”

"Your uncle, he's out to study again today." Ding Wenzhi complained to Ding Zhi dissatisfied.

Ding Zhi scratched the back of his head and didn't know what to say.

"Alright, it's none of your business." Ye Zihua saw Ding Zhi's appearance and explained.

"Broadcast: Trouble Mr. Ding Zhi to go to the front desk to pick up his elf, repeat, please ask Mr. Ding Zhi to go to the front desk to pick up his elf. Your sprite has been restored. ”

At this time, an announcement appeared in the hall, informing Ding Zhi to go and retrieve his elf.

Ye Zihua on the other end of the video also heard it, so he said goodbye to Ding Zhi and agreed to continue to contact him after he arrived in the next city.

After Ding Zhi nodded to Ye Zihua in affirmation, he disconnected the phone, walked out of the liaison hall, and went to the front desk.

"Mr. Ding Zhi, your elf has been recovered." Miss Joy holds a tray with Poké Balls of Bobo, Charizard, Wind Speed Dog, and Blastoise.

"Thank you very much, Miss Joy." Ding Zhi nodded at Miss Joy, and then took back the Poke Ball.

Just then, a teenager with multiple injuries and a Pikachu in his arms barged in.

"Miss Joy! Please help me treat Pikachu! ”

The teenager who broke in was none other than Albert, a rookie trainer in the town of Skopje.

"What's going on? How could Pikachu get hurt so badly? Miss Joy quickly took Pikachu and handed it to the gilly egg beside her, and then asked.

Albert looked at Pikachu nervously, and then blamed himself: "It's all my fault, I provoked a flaminch, and then the flaming finch called its companions to attack us together, and Pikachu was attacked by the flaminus in order to save me." ”

Miss Joy didn't have time to blame Albert, so she took Gilly Egg and the unconscious Pikachu to the emergency room.

Albert looked at Miss Joy's back until he disappeared from sight, then he found a random place to sit down, bowed his head, and waited nervously.

Ding Zhi walked up to Albert and sat down.

Albert felt that there was someone around him, looked up, and realized that it was Ding Zhi who he met at the institute this morning.

"Albert, don't be nervous, the elf injury is a stage that trainers must go through, and Miss Joey will treat Pikachu."

Ding Zhi looked at the lost Albert and comforted.

"Brother Ding Zhi, thank you. But this time, it was because of my mistake that Pikachu was so badly injured, and it was I who caused Pikachu to become like this. Albert put his head in his hands and said with a painful look on his face.

Ding Zhi frowned when he saw Albert's appearance, and said, "It is indeed very serious for the trainer to make a mistake and seriously injure his elves, but what is even more serious is that you don't believe in your elves. ”

Albert looked at Ding Zhi suspiciously, and asked puzzledly, "Why don't I believe in Pikachu?" ”

Ding Zhi saw that Albert's attention had been distracted, although he was not very good at comforting, but he could only bite the bullet and said: "Pikachu will definitely be fine, mistakes are not terrible, what is terrible is that the trainer will always indulge in the mistakes of the past and cannot get out." ”

Seeing that Albert still didn't understand, Ding Zhi continued: "After this mistake, you will understand a lot of things that you don't understand, just like the Sparrow, you don't know its habits, that's why Pikachu will be injured." At the same time, it's also because you subconsciously didn't believe that Pikachu could solve that bunch of flamingos. ”

"But, but it's a bunch of flaming sparrows, and it looks like there are more than ten or twenty of them!" Albert said excitedly.

Ding Zhi shook his head and said: "The flaming sparrow is a flying elf, and Pikachu is an electric elf, no matter how many flaming sparrows there are, Pikachu can make at least two or three flaming sparrows lose their ability to fight, and you, I'm afraid you were running away at that time." ”

Albert was stunned, indeed, his first thought at that time was to escape, and he didn't think about whether Pikachu would be able to defeat them! If it weren't for Pikachu's thunderstorming later, I'm afraid it would ......

Ding Zhi patted Albert on the shoulder, and then left, at this time, what should have been said has been said, and the rest needs Albert to figure it out himself.

What you have realized is your own, and what others teach you cannot become your own without your own experience.

Early in the morning, Ding Zhi woke up early, ready to challenge the gym in Hera City and get his first badge.

"Are you going to challenge the gym?" Miss Joy asked when she saw Ding Zhi coming out of the room and was ready.

"Yes, since Hera City has a gym, of course I have to challenge it, after all, I still have to participate in this year's Ares Conference."

Ding Zhi nodded and said to Miss Joy, who was haggard.

"I didn't rest all night, okay?"

"It's okay, I often have to stay up all night anyway, it's not a big deal, I'm used to it." Miss Joy sat down at her place and said indifferently.

"That's really hard, thanks to you." Ding Zhi thanked him heartily.

"It's alright." Joey said embarrassedly, "By the way, because the owner of the gym has something to do, our gym in Hera City has been closed for a while, and it is estimated that it will continue to be closed for a long time, so if you want to challenge the gym, there is no way." ”

"Is it closed? There was no choice but to go to Hephaestus City first. Ding Zhi said helplessly.

"If you're not in a hurry, you can go to the Trainer's House first, there are a lot of trainers gathered there, or you may have some help." Seeing this, Miss Joy said to Ding Zhi.
