Chapter Seventy-Three: Trainer Assessment (1)

"There are so many people~" Sora looked at the bustling crowd in front of him and sighed. Trainer is worthy of being the most popular profession in the Pokémon world, and before the assessment has even begun, so many "candidates" and ...... from all over Guandu have gathered

"Buy 10 get 1 free for healing spray! Don't miss it when you pass by~"

"Let's get a pack of the state recovery set, be prepared!"

"Do you want a fragment of vitality? Only 5,000 yuan is charged for one! Eh, big brother, don't go, don't want fragments, I still have blocks here! ”

"Moo moo milk! Fresh moo milk! Drink one bottle to refresh your mind, drink two bottles to never get tired, and drink three bottles to live forever! Little brother, don't you buy a dozen of your elves? ”

……

Sora declined the enthusiastic salesman uncle and continued walking in the direction of the Alliance Branch, which is located in the center of Golden City and is the actual location of this exam. There is only one headquarters in each region, but almost every city has its branch, and the annual trainer assessment is held on a rotational basis in each city. In addition, since the Guandu and the city are located on the same continent, they are unified by a single alliance headquarters, located on the Quartz Plateau.

Nana thought it was too noisy and went back to the ball, while Nini was excited as soon as there were many people, and the whole "people are crazy" were also empty and put in their pockets. That's why Sora walked alone on the street, looking at the pedestrians on the side of the road.

I'm not that old. He looked around and muttered to himself. If you are here to take the trainer's license, you can recognize it at a glance. Those who are babbling about their elves with excitement on their faces, or who are constantly checking that the items in their backpacks are complete, needless to say, they must be. They are generally only eleven or twelve years old, and some are accompanied by their parents and relatives, and they don't feel conspicuous in them.

Although there are a lot of people who refer to it, there are very few who really become trainers, the first round of written exams will brush off some people, and the second round of actual combat will discourage many children who dream of becoming trainers, because for fairness and practical considerations, the elves provided by the alliance are used in the actual combat links. Choosing 3 of the 6 randomly appearing elves and completing three battles is a big test of the trainer's judgment, adaptability, and knowledge.

In fact, even if you get a formal trainer license, this is only the first step to becoming a trainer. After that, I will go to the nearest gym to practice at the gym closest to my place of registration, and I will start with the simplest tasks to gain experience and gradually improve my level. Because, in any case, the wilderness is still quite dangerous, and the alliance has to be responsible for these fledgling "dreamers".

The profession of trainer never needs cannon fodder.

……

After a lot of effort, Sora finally squeezed to the front desk, he took out his ID card and handed it to the receptionist: "Hello, I'll register." "The exams are basically registered online, but you need to register in advance to know your specific exam time and place, because there are three exams, if you miss it due to unexpected reasons, you can also participate in the make-up exam in the later sessions, otherwise you can only wait for next year.

The receptionist put her ID card on the scanner and scanned it, and the empty information appeared clearly on the computer screen.

"Name: Kamio Sora, Gender...... Place of household registration...... Age: Eight years old? The receptionist looked at Sora from head to toe with a suspicious look. This kid is only eight years old? Is there a mistake at the test office?

She thought for a while, put on a smile that she thought was the most kind, and said: "Children, you can't participate in the trainer assessment at the age of eight~ At least you can't wait until you're 10 years old." ”

In the past, there have been cases where very young children want to secretly refer to their parents without telling them, and they are generally rejected at the application stage, but the system will inevitably make mistakes, and one of the tasks of the receptionist is to find out these "fish that have slipped through the net". But this time was different, just when she thought that the other party would turn around and leave, she heard him say lightly: "I know all this, you continue to look down." ”

Looking down? The reception lady scrolled the mouse wheel and dragged the page to the end, only to find that the child's candidate type column was written with the words "special recommendation", and she muttered in disbelief: "The recommender is...... Big Wood Snow City? ”

The next thing is very simple, the receptionist lady first kindly asked which exams he wanted to take, and then took the trouble to list the time and place of each session for him, and finally respectfully handed him the notice with detailed information in his hand, and gave him a copy of last year's written test paper with friendship. This makes Sora have to admit that sometimes fame is really useful, and when others see the doctor's name, they are even exempted from review.

"Well, tomorrow at 10 a.m. and 2 p.m., ......" he calculated, there was still a whole day before the start of the exam, and he planned to take this opportunity to take Nana and Nini to the city center for a good visit, after all, this is the most prosperous city in the Guandu area, not only sitting on the major core business circles, but also mastering the most complete infrastructure in Guandu, it would be a pity not to take a look.

……

That night, on the first floor of the Rainbow Department Store.

"Whew~ You two wait for me, hey!" Calling out to his two elves in the Gold City for an afternoon, they not only visited the huge Sylph Company headquarters (the first and second floors are allowed), but also went to the martial arts gym in the northwest of the city to observe a world-class fighting competition, and later stopped by the maglev train station under construction.

It can be said that in addition to the gorgeous tournament venue that Sora is not interested in, they have visited other famous landmarks. And in front of them is their last stop, the rainbow department store.

"Hey!" Sora sat on the chair on the ground floor of the mall, not wanting to move. With more and more mileage and more and more souvenirs, even with his physical fitness, he is a little overwhelmed.

Why didn't you notice that they liked shopping so much...... Leaning back in his chair, he stretched out his arms and struggled to think. Could it be that this is a necessary attribute for all female creatures? Although he was separated from Nana, Sora was not in a hurry to find them, because he believed that with Nana's wisdom, even if he encountered an emergency, he would be able to solve it properly, and she would take care of Nini. Besides, it won't be long before they find it themselves.

As expected, five minutes later, Nana and Nini touched them in despair......

"You're finally remembering me?" Sitting on a chair empty, with his hands on his chest, he looked at the two elves with very calm eyes.

"Bah~" Nana lowered her head, not daring to look directly into her master's eyes.

Nini was right next to her, her tail not wagging anymore, and she stood obediently like a child who had made a mistake and did not dare to squeak.

"......" made an empty face and was deliberately silent for a while. As a result, Nana's head was lowered, and even the two pairs of cute big ears drooped down, and only a long tail was wagging uneasily, and Nini also showed a pitiful look.

Let's see if you dare to run around next time! Ha ha! Sora smiled proudly in his heart, although you run well, anyway, the wallet is on me, I can only see that the taste of not eating is not good~ Too young, too simple Tucson is broken!

Then he said solemnly: "Seeing that you have a good attitude of admitting your mistakes, forget it this time, and I will do it next time...... I'll just ......"

He didn't figure out what he could do to them for a long time, so he had to say, "I won't be okay with you." ”

Nana and Nini: "......"

After completing a warning that he thought was very "deterrent", Sora's mood improved again. He beckoned Nana to jump on his shoulder, asked her to hold up the big bag with her [Thoughts], and then led Nini to the food counter on the third floor.

At the same time, the third floor of the department store.

"Snow and snow! Look, there's so much to eat here! A little girl in a pink dress is pointing to the dazzling array of snacks on the counter, her eyes lit up.

"Mengmeng, let's go back quickly, there are too many people here, what should I do if I am discovered." Beside her, a little girl of about the same age wore a green gown and reminded her writhingly.

"No one will find out! This is Guandu, and that weird old man who always wants to catch you can't catch up. The little girl named Mengmeng said nonchalantly, and then she pointed to a bunch of fried rice cakes and said to the salesperson, "I want this!" ”

"But......" Xue Xue was obviously a little uncomfortable, she looked at her friends who were shuttling between the tasting stalls at the various counters, and said helplessly, "You are so embarrassed~"

They are the dreams and sorabi who came to Guandu to have fun. It's a pity that even if they are noble beasts, they still can't escape the same predicament as Nana and Nini, and they have no money.

Compared with Mengmeng and Xuexue, who are shy in their pockets, it is much more comfortable to have an empty line. As long as you come across something you like, one word, buy! Although the logistics company has just started, it is also a major shareholder, and there is naturally no shortage of money.

Along the way, they ate extra-large octopus balls with some legs; Tasting the dorayaki drizzled with three-in-one honey, Nana liked it very much; There is also a famous product of Guandu - oden that has been skewered by Nini, which is also included in the belly. Other special snacks such as taiyaki and apple candy make this two pets eat with great relish, and their saliva overflows.

"You two eat slowly, I'll go buy a bottle to drink." Sora said to the two elves. They are now in a famous ramen shop, and they feel a little thirsty after eating all the way, so they want to go out and buy a drink. He had long wanted to taste the taste of "juice milk" that was sold only in Guandu.

"Vending machine ...... I saw it just now. Yes! Got it! Running to the vending machine, dropping in a few coins, and selecting "Juice Milk."

"Bang!" A can of drink rolled out.

"Goo-goo...... Ha-" As soon as the light pink liquid entered his mouth, a milky aroma condensed with the sweetness of the tree fruit spread in his mouth, so that Sora couldn't help but take a big sip.

"Goo-toot!" Before he could savor the bliss he had just enjoyed, he heard the sound of swallowing saliva from the side. Turning his head, a little girl in a pink dress was staring at him...... Juice milk in the hand.

The empty handle was raised, and the little girl's head was raised. He took the drink to the right again, and his dark eyes immediately followed, then to the left...... Below...... The little girl's eyes looked like they were on juice and milk, and she stared at it.

Somehow, Sora remembered the scene when he used to play with Nana with strawberry cake, so he hid the milk behind his back. Sure enough, he met a pair of big eyes that wanted to cry.

Fantasy: Staring-

"I'm sorry! I'll buy it for you! Sora was looked at by these big azure eyes, felt a heavy sense of guilt, and immediately retreated in defeat and took out money to buy water.

"Bang! Syllable! Two cans of drinks rolled out.

"Won the lottery? It's so lucky~ I'll give it all to you. Sora took out two cans of juice and milk from the vending machine and handed them to the other party's small hand. I was about to ask her if she was separated from her family, but she didn't expect the little girl to run away with a drink in her arms, and she didn't forget to glance at him before leaving.

"What...... Thank you without saying a word. Sora muttered, turning to join Nana.

……

The other side.

"Mengmeng, where did you get the drink? It's not right to steal~"

"Don't worry, this is an offering, an offering!"
