"The vines have lost their ability to fight! So the winner of this round is Merlin!! ”

In the end, fate did not favor Shinichiro and the vine monster, and neither Lady Luck nor Goddess Victory chose to show their mysterious and beautiful smiles to the young man. When the flag in the hands of the referee was raised, and when the referee announced the final battle result, both Shinichiro and Merlin showed a relieved expression.

It's no wonder that a battle that should have been easily resolved in the minds of trainers on both sides turned into a fierce battle that took so much effort due to one uncontrollable accident after another. When the result was finally decided, the two of them who were exhausted both felt a burst of relief and relief at the moment.

But when this feeling faded quickly, Shinichiro and Merlin's state of mind began to change again.

Merlin's side is naturally a little sad in joy, and a little happy in worry. In the first round of the Grass Field, Merlin was able to win at a great risk, and even after learning that he had won the tournament, Merlin still felt a little unreal.

At the same time that Merlin felt unreal, the field called the field of grass was actually a field of sand, and Frog, who had finally used his awakening trick to grind the vine monster to death, finally closed his eyes slightly and slumped happily on the dry sand with the victory of victory, stirring up a small sandstorm.

Ignoring the small emotions in his heart, Merlin hurriedly took out the high-level ball and put the exhausted Frog back, and when he stuffed the high-level ball back into his arms, he happened to see Shinichiro also retract his vine monster with a straight face. The two trainers, who had just fought each other and had engaged in a vicious fight, made eye contact for the first time after the battle had settled down. Merlin's gaze was somewhat wandering and uneasy, after all, he played tricks first, and in the end, he was lucky to win with the trick of awakening on the spot, so it was inevitable that he was a little weak-hearted. On the other side, Shinichiro had a frank and honest demeanor, and after looking at the nervous Merlin, he grinned at him slightly, revealing a kind smile.

Merlin's first reaction after seeing Shinichiro's style was to be stunned, and after thinking about it in his heart for a while, he stiffly squeezed out an ugly smile and returned it to Shinichiro.

Then, Mei Lin Xun, who was uncomfortable, turned around, walked quickly down the command platform, and walked to the arena under the instructions of the staff who immediately followed, preparing to shake hands with Shinichiro after the battle under the witness of the referee.

The rules of the quartz tournament are interesting, there is no meeting between the trainers of both sides before the battle, and there is no mandatory handshake ceremony. On the contrary, after the battle, the trainers of both sides were arranged to walk down the podium and shake hands with each other, and take photos in the presence of the referees. I probably remembered the role of laughter and enmity.

Merlin, who has witnessed the worst side of human nature since he was a child, has hardly met such a measured and open-minded character in the process of traveling along the way, and most of the trainers who have studied with him almost all gritted their teeth at Merlin after the war, but there is a lot of hatred, as for the friendship that comes after the battle, he really rarely encounters it.

In fact, Merlin didn't want to think about it, just by the way he looked when he was fighting outside, he either always pretended to be a pig and ate a tiger, or he was full of ridicule, in short, he was in a state of underbeating. How much measurement and self-cultivation do it take for those trainers who have been ravaged by him to laugh at this kind of guy and shake hands after the war and become good friends.

But it's not all Merlin's fault, since he was a child, he has long been wary of and resistant to the extremely two-faced creature of humans, those disguises, those sarcasm, those who refuse to be thousands of miles away, to put it bluntly, are just a clumsy guy who doesn't want to be hurt anymore and takes sharp defense.

But when Merlin hesitated to the side of the referee who stood in the middle of the field, when he stretched out his right hand uneasily and tremblingly, when he was held by Shinichiro's strong, strong and rough hand, when he was slapped on the shoulder a few times by this young man with a hearty smile and praised him earnestly. He really felt that this kind of handshake ceremony seemed to be a good choice.

Amid the cheers of the crowd and the whispered urging of the staff, Merlin, who had been lucky enough to win the first round of the Grass Field, left the arena in a daze. With an excited and somewhat warm heart, Merlin felt as if he was ready for the next fight.

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

Leaving the grass arena that was boiling again because of the second battle, Merlin did not rush to the lottery venue and chose the arena and opponent for his next second round. Anyway, it's still early, and at most there are only two or three winners who have just passed the first round like me on the shortlist, so it's better to wait for the first round in the morning to go halfway through.

Thinking about it, Merlin teleported directly back to his dormitory, and began to prepare to start treating his three scarred companions.

Ai Chi needed to pull out the slender missile needles that were still inserted in his body in time, those vicious transparent hair-thick needles were deeply embedded in the body of the flying mantis, if they could not all be removed and some remained. These seemingly delicate needles can cause significant damage to its actions and battles for the rest of its life.

Although the metal film covered on its surface will not be burned or burned by this flame, the high temperature still seriously damages its body surface and body structure, so it needs to be handled carefully. At the same time, Pryers also needs to expel the remaining fire poison and heat evil in his body as soon as possible, otherwise the accumulation of these unrelieved heat for a long time will seriously affect the physical state of the giant pincer mantis

On the contrary, Frog is relatively relaxed, he only needs to heal those shocking injuries outside the body, and then recover his strength.

I thought so, but when the treatment was deliberately placed on the last Frog, Merlin realized that Frog's skin was covered with fine, small, short, and transparent hairs! These little hairs kept giving Frog a pinprick-like tingling sensation and tingling, and if it weren't for Frog falling into a deep sleep due to physical exhaustion, this big guy should be running around at this moment.

Sighing softly, Merlin had to calm down, and with patience and reluctance in his heart, he carefully removed the fluff from Frog's body.

Between this and now, time flies. While Merlin was still carefully changing the medicine for his three companions, he was called back to the real world by a frustrated sound of the door opening the door.

As soon as I looked up, the first thing that caught my eye was the time close to eleven o'clock, and then the second thing that caught my eye was the depressed and depressed Duowu, whose face was dull and withered, and his spirit was sluggish.

Obviously in a state of extreme frustration, Tatake was obviously stunned after seeing that Merlin was still doing his best to take care of his Pokémon in the dormitory, and then said in surprise: "Why don't you hurry up and go to the lottery center to complete the registration and lottery for the second round, what are you doing here!?" Don't tell me you're back after you've already registered! You guy ...... as soon as he sees his Pokémon hurt"

Just as Tatake was about to start nagging, he suddenly remembered that now didn't seem to be the best time to be verbose, and hurriedly walked a few steps to drag Merlin, who hadn't fully reacted, up, "Hurry up and go to the lottery venue to register!" Beware of obsolescence!! ”

Hearing Tawu's reminder, Merlin remembered the registration issue that he had long left behind. Hurriedly sorted it out, and then without saying a word, he moved directly to the lottery venue in an instant.

Leaving Tawu alone in the dormitory, who had regained his lost state, he sighed at the praying mantis brothers and Frog who were sleeping soundly.

"Alas, you at least have a second round for you to fight, and I'm just going to lose to a little-known stinky boy." Tatake muttered with some vicious thoughts, "Ash of Zhenxin Town, right, I kind of remember you!" ”

Perhaps it was because he was speaking a little too loudly, and the mantis brothers, who were sleeping soundly, moved his limbs and squeezed a dangerous hiss out of his half-open mouth. Tatake was startled by the scream, but he could only shake his hands in a stupid way, and then twisted his waist and walked back to his room.

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

Merlin, who suddenly appeared outside the gate of the lottery venue out of thin air, caused a small sensation among the surrounding trainers and the crowd of onlookers who gathered around the venue, but in a hurry, Merlin didn't care about this, pushed away the crowd that wanted to surround him, and strode into the lottery venue.

Randomly chose a vacant terminal, and Merlin, who had already had experience in one operation, skillfully completed the second round of the game of Deng 6, waiting for the system to assign him the battle arena and battle opponent of the second round.

A moment later, Merlin's first sight was the icon of the arena, which was an ice-blue snowflake icon representing the ice field. After flashing through the figures of his friends who were probably suitable for fighting on the ice, Merlin's eyes saw another headshot of a young man, who was the opponent Merlin was going to face on the ice arena in the second round.

"Thunder?" Looking at this familiar face, or more accurately, his own somewhat impressive face, Merlin whispered the name of the young trainer, his eyes quickly slid over his basic information, "Hoenn people have made their debut in Guandu, as a newcomer, they can participate in the conference and pass the first round in their first year, not bad...... "Quickly retrieving his own memories, Merlin quickly found the memories of the poisonous little ghost in Hualan City.

"Heh, it's that little ghost...... "There is a little sigh in my heart when I met the old man, Merlin sighed lightly, "I remember, he has a metal monster, I don't know if he can let that guy evolve in Guandu, it shouldn't be possible, the giant gold monster seems to need 'fusion' to ......"

As he spoke, Merlin's eyes swept to the side, and he saw a figure stepping on top of the head of a giant gold monster floating in the air flash past him, whistling out of the gate of the lottery venue.

"No......" Merlin said after a long time.
