Chapter Seventy-Seven: The Aquarium
Because the results of the assessment will be announced at least two days later, Kamio Sora and his party will have to stay in Golden City for a while. In addition, after the trainer's license is down, Sora has other things to do, and he plans to participate in this year's promotion assessment.
In general, there are two ways for a trainer to advance.
One is to work hard to do tasks to accumulate task points, this method is suitable for low-level trainers, 500 points can be promoted from level 1 to level 2, but according to Dad Kamio, low-level tasks provide very few points, and it takes two or three years of hard work to barely reach this number, and as the trainer's level increases, the required task points will rise geometrically, and you don't need to think about it just by doing tasks to level five.
The other way is to take a promotion review, which is more encouraged by the league. The assessment method is not fixed, and it is possible to explore the area, survive in the wild, and go on adventures in a team, but there is no doubt that the trainers participating in the assessment must have a strong comprehensive ability. The Pokémon world is not safe, especially in the wild, and powerful elves abound, and the alliance hopes to gain more high-end combat power in this way.
……
"Cheers!" "Babble~" "Wow! ”
In the private room of a high-end restaurant in Jinhuang City, Kong Zheng celebrated the successful passage of the assessment with his elves, although the results have not yet been announced, but Kong is sure that there is no problem, not to mention the written test, the actual combat assessment won all three battles, it took less than 30 minutes, even if the elite trainer came, it was at this level.
"Crunch." Compared to Nana's elegance of using [telekinesis] to control the knife and fork to eat, Nini's eating appearance is very informal, or the pair of dog paws makes her unable to be informal. I saw that she was holding a leg of lamb and gnawing it fragrantly, her face was covered with pepper, cumin and other spices, and the gravy was splashed everywhere.
"Eat slowly, and no one will rob you." Sora said as he drank the stewed bird's nest with muzi fruit in the bowl. Of course, the bird's nest comes from the proud bone bird's nest, don't look at it as a small bowl, the price is not cheap, but he is not short of money now.
Nana gulps down the mille-feuille cake with an expression of enjoyment on her face from time to time. She is really getting more and more "ladylike", at least she can't remember when she taught her how to use knives and forks, probably from the Internet.
"Blah-" Nana finished her cake and wiped her mouth with a napkin.
"Do you want more?" Sora asked, this restaurant is one of the few restaurants that is willing to tailor food for elves, and while most restaurants don't refuse to allow elves to come with their hosts, not many are willing to treat them as serious customers.
"Bah!" When Nana heard this, her eyes lit up, and she had eaten at least five kinds of tree fruits in the cake just now, causing her to look forward to the taste of other desserts now. So she took the menu and poked a little bit at it with her tail.
"All of this? Have you finished eating? It's no wonder that Sora asked, except for the chocolate cake with a bit of bitterness, almost everything else was ordered.
Nana thought for a moment and wrapped her napkin in a motion.
"Can't finish packing?" I didn't have any opinion, but I still reminded: "With the current temperature, these pastries can be stored for a short time, and if you don't eat them quickly, they will definitely spoil." ”
"Babble~" Nana patted her chest, indicating that her husband had cute.
"It's good if you're happy. Waiter ~ order! "Sora has always been fond of his own elves, and besides, this cake tastes really good, and Nana can't finish it.
……
Early the next morning, on the first floor of the Shiruf Building.
"Let's go, Nini, let's go to the aquarium again. It is said that there is a dragon here, but I didn't see it last time I came too late, so I hope it didn't rest this time. Sora took Nini to stroll through the lobby on the first floor, and there is a huge aquarium under the Silver Building, which contains water Pokémon from all over the world for visitors to view for free.
The dragon was bred as the mascot of the Shiruf company, and this elf has a gentle heart and does not like to fight, so it was captured in large numbers, and now the number is very rare, and many tourists come to it.
Nana was not around, when she first arrived at the gate of the building, she ran away without a trace, still holding the pastries packed last night in her mouth, "saying" that she was going to meet netizens. This makes Sora feel complicated, Nana should be a good thing to become independent, but where does the melancholy in my heart come from?
Then he looked at the catty dog who was right at his feet, picked her up, and sucked her hard.
"Suck -" Ah, it's much better~
Ignoring the conscientious cat, he led the Wang Xingren to visit again.
"It's a white sea lion!" Sora pointed to an inconspicuous place at the bottom of the aquarium, and a snow-white tail was exposed in the white sand, swaying like aquatic weeds, and it was really impossible to find it if you didn't look closely. White sea lions generally live in extremely cold conditions, and the environment of the aquarium is too hot for it, and it probably only comes out at night.
"Wang!" Nini clung to the wall with her paws, pressed her face against the glass, and looked curiously at everything inside. She was actually more interested in the horned goldfish inside, and her eyes swam around with them. Both cats and dogs like to chase dynamic things.
It's not for nothing that the Shruf company can be targeted by Team Rocket, and its wealth can be seen in this aquarium. Except for the extremely rare ones such as ammonites and water elves, as well as the unstoppable ones such as the Tyrannosaurus and the Howler Whale King, there are simply everything else in the water system here. The cost of food and water circulation every day is not a small amount, and these elves are not fed, and they will explain to visitors what the food chain is.
The company has grown so fast that there are a lot of reports about it, both on TV news and on the Internet. In the past two years, they have successively launched a variety of Poke Balls used in different occasions, such as high-end balls, hunting balls, nest balls, diving balls, etc., and have been well received among trainers, becoming a leader in the manufacturing industry. In addition, the earliest healing sprays and insect sprays were the result of their improvement of the original technology.
"Nini! Then! Sora threw two energy cubes of different colors.
"Wang!" Nini jumped to her feet, catching them with her mouth before they hit the ground.
It's a little game between him and Nini. Yukong constantly throws energy cubes of various flavors, and Nini picks it up. When she encounters something she likes, she will eat it directly, and if she doesn't like it, she will burn it with [flame]. Sora actually wants to exercise Nini's dynamic vision and reaction speed in this way, and sooner or later she will evolve into a wind speed dog and learn [God Speed], but from the data, [God Speed] is not an easy skill to master.
The game goes on, whether it works as a training or not, at least Sora and Nini have fun.
"Mommy, look! It's amazing! Nini's agile movements and brilliant flames attracted many tourists, and a little girl took her mother's hand and looked at them with excitement. Living in such a magical world, it's hard not to love these magical little things.
"Don't get too close~" the little girl's mother instructed, she also loves elves, but also knows that they are both beautiful and dangerous.
"Hmm!" The little girl nodded, suppressing her longing, but she couldn't hide the eagerness in her eyes.
Every year, the trainer assessment attracts a large number of tourists to the host city, most of whom are relatives and friends of the candidates. It is a good opportunity to enjoy the customs and customs of other places in addition to accompanying the exam.
"Big brother, can I touch her?" Just as there was an empty energy cube box, the little girl rushed up and asked. Don't underestimate the charm of the Carty Dog, this cute, loyal, and powerful elf is quite popular everywhere, and can even be fetched if placed in the Carlos area, which is full of dog slaves.
“…… Well, if Nini doesn't object. "Sora hesitated for a while.,After all, he was defeated by the cute Lolita.,If you change to Zhengtai here.,No matter if you cry, make trouble, hang him, he won't let go.。
"Yay!" The little girl didn't hear the second half of the sentence, she threw herself at Nini like a happy bunny, and then buried her face deep in Nini's fur. "Hmm~ so comfortable!"
"Wow~" Nini looked at her master helplessly, as if blaming him for why he found himself a piece of kraft candy to stick to her body. However, the catty dog belongs to the elves that are very close to humans, and they did not resist.
……
Outside the aquarium, he was interested in teaching his little sister the taste of the energy cubes, and asked her to pick red and purple ones and throw them to Nini. Inside the aquarium, a dark figure poked its head out of the nest and looked at them curiously.
It is the dragon that has been waiting for a long time but has not been seen.
The dragon was captured by humans when it got lost with its companions at sea, and has been kept in this aquarium ever since. There is no need to worry about food and no danger, which is a very interesting place for many humans to have the ability to communicate deeply with humans, although they don't like the narrow water tank and scenery.
But when she began to get used to all this, she saw a young human frolicking with the elves. Through the thick glass and seawater, she couldn't hear the sounds outside, but she could feel the happiness from their demeanor, expressions, and movements. This is the first time she has seen a human who can communicate with the elves.
I want to ......
With them.
At this time, the game of toss and catch was played again. She watched as the little cubes were tossed again and again, and were caught again and again, with a look of longing in her big bright eyes.
I don't know what it is, but it must be delicious.
She began to wiggle her fins, slowly approaching them.
Near,
closer,
It's right in front of you......
"Bang!"
……
"Wow!" Sora was startled by the voice. When I turned my head, I saw a dragon floating behind the glass, and she was covering her nose in a daze, looking like she had been hit in pain. If it weren't for the water, maybe you could have squeezed out a few tears.
"Riding a dragon?" Sora quickly noticed that her gaze was on his hand, so he tentatively waved the energy cube box in his hand, "You want this?" ”
When the dragon in the aquarium saw this, he immediately stopped feeling pain. She nodded, and paddled briskly through the water, apparently wanting to play a game of toss as well.
There is indeed a gap between the glass wall and the ceiling, and it is easy to throw blocks into it with an empty level, but ......
"Hmm...... But the sign over there says it's forbidden to eat. "It's hard to do it.
Suddenly, a faint smell of apples reached his nose, which immediately alerted him.
"This taste...... It's a gas bomb! ”
Gas is a colorless and odorless gas, but the composition of gas bombs is not all gas. After eating it many times, I learned that it often expelled aromatic hydrocarbon gases when it released gas, which is the smell of apples.
"Nini! [Odor Detection]! "Nana is not here, and you can't use [telekinesis] to lock on enemies with malicious intentions, so look for the source of the scent.
"Wang!" Nini's nose moved slightly, and she quickly found her target. She ran first, following in an empty line.
Half a minute later, they stopped on the other side of the aquarium, and a man in a black trench coat appeared in front of them.
"Uncle, aren't you still wearing a windbreaker on such a hot day?" Air conditioner Kan said. He had almost determined that the gas bomb was on the person, but his intentions were unclear.
"Don't bother me, little ghost!" The man glared at the air viciously and scolded.
"Nini, help him [bite] the trench coat!" The other party's attitude proved Kura's guess from the side, and he immediately ordered Katy Dog to launch an offensive.
"Whew!" Nini carried out her master's will, and she roared angrily and lunged at the enemy. In the gaping mouth, the sharp teeth shone with a cold light.
