Chapter 118: Shadows
Since he arrived in this town near noon, by the time Takumi woke up, it was already dark outside.
Rubbing his eyes, Takumi, who sat up from the bed, faintly saw the black shadow of the human figure diagonally opposite, and suddenly a spirit rolled over to the foot of the bed where he placed the kunai.
Syllable!
The incandescent light in the room was turned on, and Takumi, who had seen the situation in the room, couldn't help but cough dryly, put away the kunai in his hand in a sneer, pointed to the ninja bag at the end of the bed, and said softly.
"I'm just checking the ninja."
"You're a liar!"
Forehead ......
After laughing dryly for a while, Takumi directly forcibly pulled away the topic, pushed Ai Ye and walked out the door.
"Hurry up, hurry up, let's go to dinner, I'll have a treat today, whatever!"
It seems that having had a shared experience of suffering, Ai Ye is obviously much closer to Takumi, of course, this is based on the fact that she is not aware of Takumi's previous performance in the nightmare.
Although Takumi will definitely not say it himself......
The two of them had ordered several dishes in the Pokémon Center cafeteria, and were about to fill their stomachs when the conversation of several trainers at the table on the right came into their ears.
“…… Next, I was going to try my luck in the Pokémon Sanctuary, and I heard that some time ago someone saw the fast dragon and the hack dragon in the depths of the Pokémon Sanctuary. ”
"I've heard the news as well, and it's said that the number of trainers who have flocked to the Pokémon Sanctuary has increased dramatically during this time, but I don't think we're lucky enough to meet these two legendary Pokémon......"
Two trainers who looked seventeen or eighteen years old were discussing the hot events of some time ago, and the other guy with an obviously immature face, who looked like a rookie trainer, listened to it again, and he didn't know how the three of them formed a team.
"However, although everyone is under the guise of going to find Hackron, the real target is still those Pokémon in the reserve, and as soon as there are many trainers, the police force in the reserve will be stretched, hehe......"
The two trainers who had been fighting for many years let out a rippling laugh, which made Ai Ye can't help but turn his head.
"You two went out to buy supplies today, but I found out the information in the Pokémon Center, hurry up and thank me, otherwise the three of us will die in the wild!"
The rookie trainer who hadn't changed his voice was a little milky in his voice, and when he saw the two seniors in the team communicating with him, he couldn't help but show his sense of existence.
However, under the direct gaze of the other two trainers, the rookie trainer who still wanted to sell a pass was immediately intimidated.
"Don't follow the road south of the town, there is a 'ghost village' over there, it is said that a village was cursed three years ago, and the whole village died, and their resentment after death turned into an 'evil spirit'!"
The faces of the two trainers, who were supposed to be quite experienced, changed instantly, and one of them even shouted at the waiter in the restaurant.
"Add a chicken leg to this kid, no, two!"
Tuohai and Ai Ye glanced at each other, and they both saw the wry smile on each other's faces, they had no way to know this information in the wilderness before, otherwise they would definitely avoid it instead of choosing to go straight.
"Perhaps, this is another 'ghost breeding place'......"
The two trainers had noticeably noticed Takumi and Ai Ye listening, and they didn't mind, continuing to make small talk.
However, the new words that appeared in their mouths attracted Takumi's attention, these trainers may not be strong, but they can still live well when they go south and north, and they must be extremely experienced.
"Two seniors, may I ask what this 'ghost breeding land' means?"
Takuha's seniors called the hearts of the two trainers, even though they were not very old, they accepted Takuha's title in an old-fashioned manner, and even made a senior posture when they spoke.
"You're a newcomer, you're asking the right question, but ordinary trainers don't know much about the Tao here......
"This 'ghost breeding land', as the name suggests, is a place used to raise 'ghosts', but this 'ghost' is actually a ghost-based Pokémon."
As the two trainers said a word, and I said a word, Takumi's face also became serious, and Ai Ye and the other rookie trainer at the table had a look of disbelief on their faces.
The vast majority of ghost-based Pokémon are in spirit form, and how they are born has always been a mystery.
However, some experienced trainers have found that wild ghost-type Pokémon usually live in dark forests or caves, old, abandoned buildings, and cemeteries.
And in these places, if you look deeper, you will find that there are places where wild ghost-type Pokémon exist, and it seems that they have all been dead humans or Pokémon before......
Therefore, some trainers and researchers boldly speculate that ghost-based Pokémon are born from negative emotions such as resentment, but because there is no valid scientific basis, this speculation has not been determined by the alliance as an official answer.
However, it doesn't matter if the alliance admits it or not, as long as someone thinks the guess is correct.
Due to the uncertainty of the birthplace of ghost-type Pokémon, finding ghost-type Pokémon is a matter of luck.
In order to more effectively or more easily determine the location of ghost-type Pokémon and capture them, the 'Ghost Farm' was born......
Artificially 'creating' a place full of negative emotions can not only breed new ghost-type Pokémon, but also use this environment to attract ghost-type Pokémon that are scattered around to live here.
And the forces that 'create' the ghost breeding land are like cutting leeks, taking away batches of ghost-type Pokémon from the ghost breeding land......
The three trainers on the table next to him had already left, and Takumi and Ai Ye were still slowly eating the rest of the food on their plates.
Regarding the statements of the two trainers, Tuohai still agrees with them in his heart, and Tuohai even has a reason that these 'ghost breeding places' are 'made' by the people of the alliance, and the most unfortunate thing is that the top level of the alliance must also be insiders.
During the chat, the rookie trainer said, 'The league doesn't care about these things, does it?!' In doing so, he received a disdainful sneer from his two companions.
"Rumors of the haunting of Aster Town have been rumored for decades, and all the trainers in Guandu know that Aster Town is rich in ghost-type Pokémon, do you think the Alliance will not know?"
"The people of the alliance don't know that these ghost-type Pokémon are all feeding on life energy?"
"Does the Alliance have any trainers who can deal with ghost-type Pokémon?"
"Besides, Ziyuan Town, the name 'Shion' has been obtained...... Purple Garden, Purple Ghost, Ghost Stone, Geng Ghost Their Garden, or Purple Ghost Garden, Ghost Stone, Geng Ghost's Garden, haha......"
After settling the bill, the two went out to visit the night market together, and after being silent for a few minutes, Ai Ye said a little confused.
"The image of the alliance in my heart has collapsed......"
"Reality is not a fairy tale, it's normal for light and darkness to exist in reality."
Takumi's brain has always been very sensible, and he said in a relaxed tone while looking at the goods on both sides of the street.
"At least, the alliance guarantees the basic order of the region, the development of humanity is getting better and better, and as for some problems, time will solve everything......"
"Yikes! Sometimes I wonder if you're an old man, you're only fourteen years old, two years younger than me, and you speak in an old-fashioned manner. ”
Wrinkled his nose, Ai Ye's mood was recovered, but he fell and Tuohai.
opened his mouth, Takumi wisely chose not to speak, the girl in front of him could tell if others were lying, and she was almost tricked.
……
"Judging by the map, we'll be in Fighting City in just a week's walk!"
Early in the morning, Takumi, who was measuring the distance of the map in the room, told Ai Ye a time of eight or nine that would not leave ten, which immediately made the brown short-haired girl happy.
"However, I have to think about making some money, so we will have to delay our departure for a few days."
Flipping through his wallet, Takuha's face was a little helpless, and Ai Ye's excited look also faded a little, but he recovered in a blink of an eye.
Although the money in his wallet is still enough to support him for a while, Takumi habitually prepares in advance and does not let himself rush to remedy things when things are done.
In fact, it is also Takumi's own reason, although there will not be as many Pokémon in the wild as ordinary wild animals, but there are actually quite a few ordinary Pokémon.
But Takumi himself has to train Pokémon while he is on the road, and these wild Pokémon know the truth that 'as soon as there is movement, .nt will run away first', so that Takumi has not even caught a wild little Lada from the light red city to the present.
"In the future, you can pay attention to your Pokémon and fight junglers, even if Pokémon like Little Rada are not very valuable, but the number is okay......"
Putting away the map, Takumi left the accommodation area with Ai Ye and strode to the Pokémon Center's mission office.
If you make money legally, it's better to take the commission quickly, after all, the commission tasks that can appear in the Pokémon Center will definitely be related to Pokémon, and once you have a relationship with Pokémon, the number of the commission amount is not small!
"Buy: I need a ghost-based Pokémon, the price is negotiable, and the contact information ......"
"Sparring: Hire an excellent fighting Pokémon to my wrist strength at a high price as a sparring partner, with a daily salary of 5,000 ......"
The number of trainers in the Pokémon Center's mission delegation office is still quite crowded, but Takumi knows that most of these trainers are local trainers, just like Meisha and Masha in Sunshine Town, they usually only have one Pokémon.
Although the strength is not outstanding, a town or city is indispensable for these trainers in many places.
Although there are many tasks entrusted to the task department, the one that satisfies Takumi is still being searched.
His arm was shaken lightly twice, and Tuohai glanced at Ai Ye suspiciously, and then looked in the direction of Ai Ye's finger, and his eyes suddenly lit up.
"Escort: The contemptible company needs to transport a batch of supplies to the city of fighting, and now it urgently needs three trainers to join, if you are not strong enough, do not disturb, the remuneration for this trip starts from 30,000, and the contact information ......"
By the way, the pay is enough, is there a task more suitable for you?
