Huhuhu~~ I slept for another day and didn't wake up until the afternoon...... And then let the downstairs scold the street to wake up...... The old man angrily copied two kitchen knives, but it was very violent......

In the end, suddenly today is a god ten shots~~~~ Our journey is really still a sea of stars......

━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━

In the first few days of Mr. Zang's tired training, Merlin really couldn't hold on, but after gradually getting used to it (especially with Mr. Zang's sharp gaze behind him), he still gritted his teeth and persevered.

In this kind of training with a full schedule and a clean body every day, I really can't feel the passage of time, and before I know it, it has reached the end of September.

In the evening, Mr. Zang was talking to Merlin and his party about the past and the present, and today's topic is about the way of fighting.

"The way of fighting today is too weak, too low-level! I'm really ......," Mr. Zang first used a large chapter to criticize the rules of battle and combat methods used today. Merlin listened and remembered very carefully, but the companions behind him were either asleep or wandering out of the world. Vizir and Rei gathered around Kuknas to pluck fruit from the top of his head and eat it.

Perhaps because he had eaten too much tree fruit recently, Kuknas had awakened to the Harvest Property. This makes it a walking fruit tree, and any fruit it eats is likely to grow among the lush foliage above its head, and it ripens very quickly.

This convenience was immediately exploited by unscrupulous fellows such as Wizil, who forced Kuknas to eat some rare and delicious tree fruits, and then had Frog use growth tricks on Kuknas to promote the rapid growth of the tree fruits, while they sat back and munched on the ripe fruits. Merlin criticized them several times for this behavior, but honestly chose to shut up after receiving some rare tree fruit as hush money. Just told them a few words to be considerate of Kuknas's body.

“…… Keeping the trainer in the safe rear, and keeping the trainer out of direct involvement in battles and duels, is definitely one of the most brainless policies the Alliance has ever enacted! And it's even become the norm! I've even heard that in high-level events recently, an extra touch energy shield has been installed in front of the trainer! This is a ridiculous joke! The alliance will suffer sooner or later if it goes down this wrong path!! Mr. Zang looked indignant and very excited, "It's not that I can't understand the purpose of the alliance's policy. Isn't it just protecting the trainers! But you can't do that! You can't be so overprotective! In this way, the trainer is completely isolated from the Pokémon during the battle, so that the trainer cannot participate in the battle in person, and the trainer cannot feel the power of the special move in person. Over time, only a group of indifferent trainers will be cultivated, who will only stand from a distance and watch Pokémon fight desperately without the slightest mercy! ”

Merlin suddenly remembered that Ze had said something similar, and he had similar concerns.

"Take the initiative to add a barrier between the trainer and the Pokémon, so that the trainer can be high up and out of the way to dictate the Pokémon. This kind of behavior not only gradually breeds arrogance and class feeling, but also invisibly weakens the requirements for trainers. Mr. Zang picked up the teacup and raised his head to take a sip of the warm tea in it, and Merlin hurriedly came over to fill it up, "As a trainer, if you are knocked down by your own Pokémon's special move, it is a disqualification and a shame." If you are knocked down by other Pokémon's special moves, it is even worse and even more stupid. The Alliance's policy of keeping trainers in the back of the safety zone has weakened the intuitive feeling of today's young trainers about Pokémon's special moves, and they are unable to face the power and strength of their special moves, so they naturally lack the ability to judge and measure their special moves. Over time, they will inevitably only seek the so-called 'high-power' tricks instead of choosing the most suitable and appropriate match for each Pokémon. And because of the loss of a direct basis for judging the energy level of the trick, this kind of action will also lead the trainer to gradually lose the ability to self-rate and self-judge......" Mr. Zang raised the teacup and blew a few cool breaths, blowing a tea stalk on the surface of the tea and running back and forth.

"On the one hand, the alliance introduced this policy to protect trainers, and on the other hand, it is also to limit trainers, so that trainers rely on the league, rely on the league's rating system and evaluation system, and rely on the alliance's special equipment......" Mr. Zang took a sip of tea, "You have done a good job of this, at least you can fight side by side with your partners in the wild environment, and face the same danger." Keep it up in the future. ”

Merlin nodded busily to be taught.

"In addition to the policy of separating Trainers from Pokémon, which is criticized, the Alliance has a policy that is very difficult for me to accept. It's the current six-on-six battle rule. I was, well, I think it was until about a decade ago — the way of fighting, especially the six-on-six fight, except that the trainers on both sides were competing against the Pokémon they were using, and the way they won and lost was even different from what they are now. At that time, we generally used the method of refereeing by knocking one down to win. In Six-on-Six, it is allowed to reclaim Pokémon for replacement after a valid attack. In this style of fighting, the victory or defeat is determined by which side has the Pokémon knocked down first. Do you know? He asked Merlin.

"I've heard of it. It's a 'six-out-one' way of fighting. It can also be said to be an improved version of the ancient 'cut-out' combat system. As long as one of the participants in the team is completely knocked out, they lose. Merlin replied.

"Uh-huh." Mr. Zhuang nodded with satisfaction, "This kind of battle may be faster or longer to solve the victory." But it is definitely more about the skills and strength of the school trainer itself, and more about the tacit understanding between the school trainer and Pokémon. In order to win in this kind of battle, there are more and more comprehensive considerations, each Pokémon must be integrated into the overall strategy and tactics, and each Pokémon must exert enough power and participate in the whole battle. At that time, the six-on-six battle was a complete whole, rather than the current six individuals simply connected together. But unfortunately, this kind of combat is now very rare, and only some high-level events that are not broadcast live will adopt this difficult way of playing. Ordinary events tend to use the kind of brainless way of catching and fighting. Mr. Zhuang sighed for a while, "It's not that I can't understand the reason why the alliance canceled this way of fighting, it's just that this kind of battle is not passionate, fierce enough, and eye-catching enough." Compared with the fierce fighting style of one-on-one until the winner is decided, the old battle is inevitably not lively enough. In the past all-round battles, the Pokémon that participated in the battle were often replaced after a few encounters with a few special moves, and were replaced after completing strategic and tactical moves. So usually the first few rounds of encounters will be more tedious and hazy, and it will seem brain-draining. But it's also fun, delving into the opponent's tactics and strategies, and cracking other people's arrangements...... Well, that's the real contest of strength. ”

"Some people call the current era the 'age of eyeballs', and every qiē is based on catching eyeballs." Merlin said, "Driven by the eyeball economy, the league can only adopt a fighting method that can catch the attention of the audience, can stimulate the adrenaline of the audience, and can make the audience explode." Because of this way of fighting, ordinary people can like Pokémon battles. The combination of blood and violence, which requires both rules and a certain amount of dù, happens to be accepted by the vast majority of the people. ”

"That's right, that's right. That's it, that's it. In order to serve the public, the tedious process of the event had to be cut. Mr. Zhuang nodded, "Your generation, as well as your parents, all grew up in a strange era, and began to be influenced by various colorful images since they were young or relatively young, and they are good at concrete things, and they are good at dealing with problems with intuitive appearances. But you lack a lot of things, especially a lack of thinking about the problem, you just want an answer and not ask why. It also lacks the concept of system and wholeness, does not understand the meaning of the collective, and does not know how to cooperate and cooperate......"

Mr. Zang's cliché time has begun again......

※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※

In the evening of the other day, Merlin and his party, who had finished a day's training and evening class, yawned and began to move back to their room.

"Merlin, little ghost, come over here." Mr. Zang stopped Merlin, who was pushing open his glasses and rubbing his eyes, and Wizier and the others couldn't help but stop, "I don't need you here." He waved his hand for Vizir and the others to leave.

Wizil gave Merlin a look of self-pleading favor and retreated.

Merlin, who didn't know what had happened, sat back down with some uneasiness.

"Afraid of what? Can I still eat you, old man!? Mr. Zang looked at Merlin's cowering and uneasy look and couldn't help but scold a few times, "Letting you stay is to let you do some work for me." He got up and walked to the cabinet, opened the drawer and took out a box, "When you get old, your eyes are not good, and these delicate tasks are too laborious and too laborious to do." ”

Mr. Zhuang walked towards Merlin with the wooden box in his hand, and there was a muffled sound of metal hitting the box as his body jolted.

Merlin was also a little curious about what would be in the box.

"It's an extra training session tonight, and if you do it well, you can run half a lap less tomorrow morning." Mr. Zang handed the box to Merlin, who immediately stretched out his hands respectfully and held them firmly in his palms. The weight of the box is not light.

Mr. Zang turned around and walked to his cushion and sat back down, "Open it." He said to Merlin.

Flipping through the blackened copper lock, Merlin gently opened the wooden box, and through the flickering candlelight, he saw that there were a large number of brown metal badges in the wooden box, the shape of the badge was like the scythe of the flying mantis, but it was more sleek and the whole was formed into an almost entire circle.

"What is this?" Merlin couldn't help but ask. He could have guessed that the box might contain a badge, but when he opened it, he couldn't figure it out when he saw that it was all the same.

"My badge." Mr. Zang picked up the small group fan and fanned, "My badge of the gym." ”

Merlin froze.

"I haven't released much since I've made them, but occasionally I polish them to keep them bright." Mr. Zang fanned his fan and said indifferently, "After all, I still have the name of the gym here." Although there are no challengers coming to the door, it is also true. ”

"Gym?" Merlin suddenly remembered the shabby signboard at the door, and the word "pavilion" that he vaguely recognized, and the corners of his eyes twitched. He's been here for a long time, and he hasn't even connected this place with the gym.

"You didn't just remember that I was a gym, did you?" Mr. Zang directly peeked into Merlin's thoughts, and seeing Merlin hanging his head in embarrassment, he laughed loudly, "Ahaha, you are really simple." I'm also a retired Heavenly King, and it's a common practice for a guy of my level to open a gym in a retirement place. ”

Merlin hung his head and whispered, "But shouldn't the gym be opened in the town?" There must also be enough audience around ......"

"How many years ago was that old yellow calendar?! Where does it still count now? Mr. Zang said, "Just wipe the badge with the flannel cloth in the box, and it will become shiny after wiping it for a while." He first instructed Merlin to start working, watched Merlin carefully pinch the badge and wipe it with a flannel cloth carefully, and then began to say: "In the past, there were strict regulations for the establishment of the gym, there must be more than 10,000 children around, there must be enough trainers, the hall owner has enough qualifications and strength, and there are many requirements for the location...... But now it is relatively broad, and the alliance needs more directly subordinate Taoist halls to strengthen the effective control of the local government. "And the alliance also needs enough positions to accommodate more and more people, and it needs enough space so that old guys like me who survived have a place to preach and teach and spend their spare time." Therefore, in today's larger towns, there will be two or more Taoist halls in those giant cities. Most of the dojos like me, which are in charge of elderly care, are set up in poor and inaccessible places, because we old people don't need to deal with challengers, but more to help educate up-and-comers. Of course, if someone lucky enough – like you – stumbles into my gym in ignorance and ignorance, I don't mind teaching you and assessing you. ”

Merlin, who was wiping the badge, was excited, and his mind was alive.

"But don't fantasize about anything good. If you want to get my badge, your strength is simply wishful thinking. I'm also the only insect hall in Guandu that has a five-point sect. Even if I release the water and lower the standard, you can't pass the test casually......" Mr. Zang directly pierced the careful thoughts that Merlin had just risen, "However, if you can survive the training during this time and be able to serve me comfortably, I don't mind violating the principle of once to give you a badge as a souvenir." ”

"If the younger generation wants the old gentleman's badge to be kept as a souvenir, they will naturally go all out." Merlin, who was wiping the badge, gritted his teeth and said, "The junior just wants to beg the old gentleman to teach me more strictly. If you don't think the younger generation is stupid......"

"Less nonsense!" Mr. Zang picked up the fan and slapped Merlin a few times, "Old man, I have my own way of doing things, and I don't need you to chirp crookedly there." ”

"The younger generation lost his word." Merlin hurriedly bowed his head again.

"Hmph, you little devil is like this, you don't have the nature of a young man at all, although it is very deferential and makes me very useful, but it also makes me sick from time to time." Continuing to fan himself with the tuan fan, "Leave you here tonight, in addition to asking you to help me wipe my badge, I also have something else to say to you." It's all about your partner's ......."

Merlin looked up, and the work in his hands couldn't help but stop.

"Keep working, keep working, I just say you just listen." Mr. Zang motioned for Merlin to continue working, "I've been observing your companions all this time, and I've completely figured out the details of them. The different plans you make for your partners are good, and they are all very practical and in line with themselves, so I won't be too verbose in this regard. There are just a few points to mention, one of which is your wonderful frog grass, as an agitation ......"

While wiping the badge in his hand while listening to Mr. Zang's teachings and comments, Merlin imprinted every sentence of the old man deeply in his mind, although he may not necessarily completely copy his ideas, but the advice of a wise old man is definitely worth paying attention to.

The night is getting darker. Under the flickering candlelight, the old and the young complement each other when they talk and listen.

The answer to the question in the last issue: As of now, there are seventeen attributes~~ I don't need to say each one~~

In this issue, let's ask a digression, Brother Phoenix asked if there was a book friend group, so I took this opportunity to ask if you need to announce the penguin number and build a group or something~~ I just boarded 6 for a while, and now I can build a group, and then if you need it, you can get one......
