Because of his heavy heart, Merlin decided to turn his grief and anger into bills and make a big purchase in Hualan City.

Merlin first went to the famous miracle bicycle shop in Hualan City and bought a new blue foldable mountain bicycle to upgrade the ordinary folding bicycle he had purchased before. Later, I found a professional store specializing in diving equipment and bought a complete set of professional diving equipment, such as deep-diving diving suits, cryogenic diving suits, oxygen cylinders, oxygen concentrators, small underwater propulsion devices, etc.

By the way, a new powerful multi-functional respirator was also purchased, this small long high-tech product with a removable nose mask can extract fresh water from fresh water, sea water and even the air, convert fresh oxygen for the user to breathe, and can also purify the air of a variety of impurities such as various powders produced by Pokémon and some chemical toxins, but then it is necessary to clean the purification device and replace the purification block. So Merlin also hoarded a certain amount of purification blocks by the way, just in case. Oh yes, this little thing is used for charging, and it can work normally for at least ten hours on a single full charge. So Merlin also bought a set of special charging equipment by the way.

In addition to these large equipment, Merlin also purchased some daily consumables, so there is no need to repeat them.

In short, after a lot of money was sprinkled with water, Merlin finally felt a little more comfortable. After regrouping his mood, Merlin decided to visit several famous attractions in Hualan City, such as Hualan Lagoon, Tourist Beach, and Hualan Cape are his destinations.

This afternoon, Merlin will take a trip to the beach, go there for a walk, and then spend the night at the beach, and then take the Guò Golden Globe Bridge to the north to see the Cape of Hua Lan and the Lagoon in the north.

With the decision made, Merlin got on his new mountain bike and set out to set out on a beach-bound journey......

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

The next morning, Merlin, who had been enjoying the cool sea breeze all night on the beach with few tourists, rode his bicycle to the Golden Globe Bridge following the road signs. Since the mountain bike has neither a basket in the front nor a seat in the back, the journey to Merlin is a bit lonely.

Seeing the golden bridge getting closer and closer, Merlin's mood also brightened.

The location of the Golden Globe Bridge is exactly where the main vein of the Hualan River was diverted due to the surrounding mountains, and the Hualan River, which originally flowed from west to east, was diverted to the north under the obstruction of the mountain, and then entered the sea through the Hualan Lagoon to the east, and the Golden Globe Bridge also happened to span this section of the north-south river.

Beneath the bridge is the wide but calm Hualan River, to the west are the steep peaks and rich foothills of the Nibi Mountain Branch, and to the east are the mountains of the Flower Heights and the plains at the foot of the mountains.

This and the road behind it is also the main area for the usual activities of trainers and Pokémon breeders in Hualan City.

Named after the golden yellow body and the golden ball decoration at the top of the bridge's railing, the bridge deck is a two-way four-lane main road, flanked by non-motorized lanes and sidewalks about two lanes wide, for people to cross the bridge by bicycle, battery car or on foot.

Due to the relatively wide bridge deck, there are also many trainers who use the bridge deck as a base to challenge the passengers, although the local authorities have repeatedly discouraged them from fooling around on the bridge and waiting to get off the bridge before fighting, but it has had little effect, and in the end it even became a tacit attitude.

As soon as he drove onto the bridge deck, Merlin saw three insect catchers lined up on the bridge deck not far ahead, as if the non-motorized lanes and sidewalks had been cut off.

[Roadblock robbery? Or a roadblock challenge? Looking at it from afar, Merlin secretly wondered in his heart.

A distance of 100 meters is not too far, and after pedaling more than a dozen times, Merlin came to the insects and teenagers who were blocking the road. When I came to the front to take a closer look at Merlin, it turned out that the three insect catchers were only real people when the middle one was a real person, and the imitation signs on both sides were life-size imitation signs, which were used to make up the numbers.

"This place is called the Golden Globe Bridge by the people of Hualan City!" When the insect catcher boy standing in the middle said to Merlin, "That trainer over there, as long as you defeat me and the five trainers after me in turn, you can get a mysterious gift!" Do you want to get it? Can you get it? He asked, swaggeringly.

"Is it asking me?" Merlin deliberately asked rhetorically.

"Nonsense, I don't ask who you ask except you here!" The insect catcher boy crossed his waist and craned his neck, eager to look at Merlin with his nostrils, "You're a trainer, right?" If yes, hurry up and accept the challenge, if not, hurry up! He waved his hand impatiently.

"Trainer, I do." Merlin scratched his head, "But what are you talking about as a mysterious gift?" ”

"Uh......" The insect catcher boy who had been tilting his head finally looked at Merlin with his eyes, "It's really a trainer." He looked a little unconvinced, "Forget it, forget it, since someone comes to the door, you can't let it go!" ”

As he spoke, he pulled a Poké Ball from his waist and threw it out, "Go Green Caterpillar!" Directly released a small and delicate seemingly completely harmless caterpillar out.

Fortunately, the wind on the bridge is not very strong, otherwise it is very likely that such a small Pokémon will be blown away directly.

Merlin took one look at the green caterpillar and then at the insect catcher, and after struggling for a while, he finally decided to deal with them, and to be honest, he really cared a little bit about that mysterious gift.

“saturation

attack！ He took out the blue high-grade ball containing Duck from his bosom, and Merlin threw and released it at will, directly responding to the battle with his actions.

[If there is no accident, these so-called five people will be handed over to you, Dak, you have a snack.] Merlin commanded.

[Boss, you really look up to me......] After Duck was melancholy for a while, he could only pinch his nose and accept the deal.

"Duck, water waves!" Merlin directly moved the first attack.

Duck clung in the shape of a ball and began to rub the water ball.

"Green caterpillar, use the silk to tie up this duck!" The insect catcher boy also gave the order.

The green caterpillar arched forward with two pairs of gastropods, and just as he was about to open the opener to spit out the silk thread, he was hit by Duck's water balloon, and he fainted very simply.

"Uh......" his Pokémon was so simply knocked down that the insect catcher boy was slightly embarrassed, he quickly took out the Poké Ball and took the green caterpillar back, and then threw out a new Poké Ball, "Come on, Iron Armor Chrysalis!" ”

Looking at the emerald green pupa that was released into the field, Merlin raised his eyebrows slightly. He has also seen some insect catchers and fought with them a lot, but Merlin has never understood why these insect catchers want to release these insect chrysalis that are completely unable to move, completely unable to attack, and can only **, just to make up the numbers?

Shaking his head, Merlin didn't even bother to give instructions and snapped his fingers to announce the end of the battle.

"Come back, ironclad chrysalis, go unicorn!" The Insect Catcher Boy is very tenacious and continues to send Pokémon into the field.

"Smack!" Merlin covered his eyes with his left hand, but he still couldn't bear to watch the battle.

"Come back, unicorn, go on, iron-shelled kun!"

"Smack!"

"Back to ...... Come back, Ironshell Kun ......"

"Anything else?" Merlin asked.

"No, it's gone," the insect catcher boy was stunned for a moment, and then let out a long sigh of relief: "Whew~~ Good guy, you are really amazing." ”

[It's not that I'm amazing, but you're too vegetable......] Merlin, who looked as usual, said in his heart.

[Agreed.] Duck chimed in.

"Okay, uh, now that you've defeated me, you can go down." As he spoke, the insect catcher got out of the way.

Merlin rode straight on his bicycle, and when he came to the young man with a somewhat strange face, he asked, "I only remembered it after the battle, and when I said it, what is your name?" ”

"Kensuke." The insect catcher boy subconsciously replied, "What about you? He asked Merlin rhetorically.

"Merlin." Waving at him, Merlin rode his bike slowly, Duck trotting behind him.

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

"I'm Saya from Number 2, so I'm serious!"

Merlin's path again was stopped by a girl dressed in a miniskirt that was very popular nowadays, and instead of pretending to be maze with a sign like the previous insect catcher boy Kensuke, she generously blocked the way forward with three Pokémon. A **, a trumpet bud, and a walking grass, all of them look good, and they are carefully cared for at a glance.

"You go first! Use peck! The girl named Saya was not polite, and directly won the first attack.

"The Ripples of Water." Merlin, who had not even been too lazy to ride a bicycle, faintly commanded Duck to attack.

Just when ** flapped his wings and rushed towards Duck with a rather cute look, Duck's water balloon knocked it down with a single blow, directly making it incapacitated.

"Yikes!" The girl exclaimed, and hurriedly retracted the unconscious **, "Hmph, since you are a Pokémon of the water system, then the grass type must have an advantage!" Go walk the grass and use paralysis powder! "She's commanding that cute weed Pokémon to come out and fight again.

"Do I have to keep using the water system?" Merlin muttered to himself, "Mindfulness." He smiled and gave a new order.

Dark's eyes widened, and a wave of pale blue energy rushed straight towards the walking grass, knocking it to the ground with a single blow.

Walking grass with poison attribute is attacked by telekinesis, and it has to eat double the attribute to restrain the damage.

"W-what's going on?" Seeing that her cute walking grass was blown down by an attack that seemed to be wind, Saya looked at a loss, "Come back, come back." It's, it's your turn, the trumpet bud. As she spoke, she assigned the very slender trumpet bud to the battlefield.

Watching the trumpet bud swaying back and forth and walking forward, Merlin scolded in his belly, [It's a poisonous grass again, don't you know how to learn a lesson? But speaking of which, how the hell did this thing hold up such a big head with such a thin body? Merlin was clearly more entangled in Trumpet's strange body structure.

"Telekinesis." Without waiting for Saya to give the order, Merlin directly announced the end of the battle.

Darkk easily knocked out the Trumpet Bud with a fluctuation of telekinesis.

"Babble~Babble~~ Me, did I lose? How did I lose? The girl held her cheeks with both hands, looking incredulous.

Shaking his head, Merlin rode his bike and carried Duck on.

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

"Three's true understanding is here! I didn't have it that easy! ”

The young man in shorts, who looked confident with his arms around him, stopped Merlin with such words.

Merlin, who had a strange face, said in a strange tone, "I'm really looking forward to it." ”

"Come on, mountain mouse!" The boy in shorts throws a Poké Ball and releases a sturdy pangolin.

"The Ripples of Water." Merlin gave the order with a look of regret on his face.

Duck rubbed the water balloon with a blank face.

"Pangolin, get out of the way!" Zhenwu knew that something was wrong, and followed the order.

Unfortunately, despite the evasive maneuvers of the pangolin, the pangolin still could not escape the fate of being knocked down by the water balloon. A double restraint Water Wave move directly made it incapacitated.

"Come back, goofer!" Zhenwu took back the pangolin that was still **, and then threw out another treasure ball, "Go on Ah Bai Snake!" ”

This time it was no longer the usual small characters before, but a snake with a body length of two meters and a thick thigh, this poisonous snake except for a circle of yellow at the seven inches and a rustling tail is bright yellow, the whole body is purple, at first glance, it is full of poison, and there is a pair of cold pupils in the bright yellow eyes covered by transparent eyelids, just a slight glare, which immediately made the Dak Lingling, who was watching with his eyes on his back, shiver firmly.

[Intimidating characteristic.] Merlin muttered, [It is also the basic characteristic of the Aba snake and the Aba monster, these snakes are generally dual-characteristic, and they can both intimidate and molt. However, this intimidation is still at the visual level, which is considered ordinary......]

The explanation of the characteristics of intimidation is simply to scare the other party, so that the opponent's attack is afraid of the tail and dare not exert all his strength, a strong intimidation can even make the opponent directly fall into a state of fear and dare not move, and a stronger point is to directly make the opponent dare not attack, and even the idea of running away does not dare to get up, so it can only be slaughtered obediently.

There are also many ways to unleash the intimidation trait, and generally speaking, the basic thing is to use a terrifying or majestic appearance to frighten the opponent at the visual level. There is also the auditory level, using roars and loud sounds to make the other party timid. As for the more advanced and profound Merlin has also seen it, it is at the level of feeling. In the Orley region, he was frightened by a blue emperor with a look in his eyes and could not move for half an hour.

In fact, although the intimidation feature works very well, it is also easy to counteract. For example, the threat at the visual level, as long as you are psychologically prepared and not frightened by the suddenness, there will generally be no major problem, and the auditory level is simpler, and if you can't hear it, you won't be afraid, but the threat at the sensory level cannot be exempted and can only be resisted by your own heart.

Taking advantage of the gap when Dak was frightened, Zhenwu also followed up and gave an order, "Aba Snake, attack the duck with a bite!" He reached out and pointed to the duck.

With its mouth wide open, the Aba snake swam over silently. It is said to be silent, but in fact, it only refers to its movement, because at this time, both its mouth and tail are constantly making sounds.

"Ah~~"

"Rustle~~"

The sound of the mouth and tail intertwined, constantly attacking the listener's nerves.

[Oh, I underestimated it, and I actually started to fumble with sight and hearing.] Merlin laughed, "Is it almost time?" That's what's interesting. 】

Of course, the sound of the Aba snake is not in vain, and the reason why it keeps making these noises is to consolidate and deepen the effect of the intimidating character. Judging from these phenomena, this Aba snake should be about to evolve, because it has begun to abandon the fighting style of the Aba snake and start using the fighting style of the Aba monster.

The biggest difference between the Aba Monster and the Aba Snake is that it has abandoned the silent sneak attack tactics of the pre-evolution period in favor of more effective and inexplicable intimidation tactics. They prefer to scare their opponents with the different patterns on their abdomen, and then swallow their frozen opponents whole.

"Telekinesis." Merlin continued to give orders without being salty.

The Aba snake had swam fairly close to Dak at the moment, and it only needed to get a little closer for it to attack Dak.

As soon as he received the command, Dark, who seemed to have been frightened, suddenly opened his eyes, and a light blue energy came out of thin air and suddenly enveloped the Aba snake, and then it was lifted up in mid-air like an invisible hand pinching a long worm.

The painfully twisted body of the Aba snake that was hit hard by this.

"Aba Snake!" Satoru shouted.

Suddenly, the body of the Aba snake shone with a brilliant white light.

Seeing this scene, Duck immediately stopped his telekinesis and continued to attack, and the white light of the Aba snake fell to the ground.

The snake on its face was writhing, its body was getting thicker and longer violently, especially its neck was constantly expanding outward.

"Evolved...... "Evolved" Shingo's face was full of excitement and muttered, "Finally evolved......"

[Ahh Merlin doesn't say much extra.

Soon, the originally slender purple snake disappeared, replaced by a cobra with a body length of nearly three meters, about the thickness of a bucket at the thickest point. It wriggled its tail, spitting out its long, forked tongue and a terrifying air sound, its protruding neck shuddering, and the lines on it formed a terrifying grimace that seemed to be alive.

Darker was so frightened by the scene that he took two steps back.

[Are you alright?] Merlin asked.

[It's okay, I'm pretending, it's not the first time I've seen them.] This is the tactic that Big Brother Wizil taught me, what is it called showing weakness. Duck comforted Merlin.

[Show weakness? Wizil occasionally wields a good role. Merlin gave a rare compliment to Vizel, [I remember that most scholars thought that the pattern on the abdomen of the Aba monster was just a symbol of the difference in its habitat......] Merlin took the opportunity to look at the truly enlightened Aba monster a few times, [There are also a few scholars who insist that those patterns represent different ability increases. I'm more inclined to think that the latter is right......]

The grimace of the Aka Monster's abdomen looks like a demon with smiling eyes and a mouth split.

【…… Laughing Tattoo, which represents complete immunity to toxins and higher resistance to ailments......] Although most modern scholars scoff at the knowledge of Pokémon recorded in ancient texts, this does not prevent Merlin from accumulating them, and it is because of his childhood readiness and rote memorization that he has the capital to face most crises so calmly today.

[It doesn't have a very useful impact on the battle situation.] Merlin shook his head slightly, and then snapped his fingers again, "Dark, telekinesis." ”

[Keep using your telekinesis ** to move the Ah Bai monster back. Using telepathy, he added, "The degree and strength have increased significantly after evolution, so don't let it get too close, the effective attack range for these snakes will always be farther than we estimated! 】

[Got it.] Duck replied solemnly.

"Ah Bai Monster, use dissolve~ Ah yes, you can't make this trick on the bridge." As soon as Mago shouted out the command, he suddenly remembered something and swallowed his own command back.

Ah Bai suddenly turned around and glared at Mago.

"I'm sorry, I'm sorry!" Zhenwu made a gift and apologized to his Ah Bai monster, "Ah Bai monster used a poisonous needle this time!" ”

Before the Ah Bai monster could turn around, Dark's telekinesis was killed, and the powerful telekinesis trick directly hit the caught off guard and knocked it out fiercely.

"Go on." Ignoring Satoru's reaction, Merlin immediately launched a pursuit.

Duck immediately gathered his mental strength, pinched the Aba monster that had been knocked out, and spun around in the air a few times before slamming it to the ground.

The monster struggled to his feet.

Without Merlin's orders, Duck once again summoned up his telekinesis and knocked the Aba monster away, and this time the cobra finally had no strength to fight again.

"Ahh Restrained! Shingo clutched as she covered her face.

Indeed, you have restrained yourselves. Merlin nodded.

Riding his bicycle and calling Duck to follow, Merlin won the third man with a complete victory.

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

"I'm Ami from number four, are you tired? Let's just rest here. ”

A girl dressed in a miniskirt also blocked Merlin's way. This miniskirt called Ami looks a little bigger and more mature than the previous Saya girl.

"Then let's stop talking nonsense and get started." Merlin stopped his bike and said to Ami.

"Hmph, you dare to underestimate me!" Ami was immediately angry with Merlin, her pretty face was pink, and she threw a Poké Ball viciously, "Go on Nidoran, teach him a good lesson!" ”

"Ah, it's Nidolang, I miss it so much, after Monador evolved, he was obviously not as cute as when he was a child." Merlin looked at the cute little pink thing with a look of remembrance.

Then, with a snap of his fingers, he ordered Duck to attack it.

Remembrance and fighting are two different things.

Darker immediately summoned a wave of energy to attack Nidolang.

"Nidolang, poke it with a poisonous needle!" Amejiao gave the order didily.

But this little thing only ran two steps before it was overturned to the ground by the fluctuation of ability, and lost its ability to fight.

"Poke? Could it be that it is also a poison needle in the nature of melee attack? Merlin muttered.

"Ah, you scoundrel actually attacked with a special trick!" Ami saw that her little cutie was knocked down, and hurriedly ran forward to pick it up and stroke it in distress, and took out a bottle of spray-type wound medicine to treat it.

[It's very gentle and considerate.] Merlin commented on Yami's watch, "He's a good breeder, but he's not a good trainer.] 】

waited until Nidoran replied to a certain extent, Ami took it back with pity, and then glared at Merlin with accusatory eyes for a long time, staring at Merlin a little embarrassed before giving up, and then released another Pokémon angrily.

"Go up Nidoran, it's this duck that injured Nidoran! You have to avenge it! She said.

"Love, couples?" Nidoran and Nidoran are two Pokémon that are relatively easy to pair up and easy to subdue, so it is not uncommon for people to take the two of them and raise them together as a couple.

In fact, Merlin also asked Monardo if he needed to find a little girlfriend or something, but he sternly refused. According to Wizl, that's embarrassing. But Merlin still thinks it's probably not time.

"Since we're a couple, let's go and rest together." Merlin smiled and snapped his fingers again.

Duck once again set off a wave of power and struck at Nidolan.

"Again!?"

At Ami's exclamation, Nidoran was also knocked down by telekinesis.

couldn't bear to watch Yamei's sensational performance at eight o'clock, Merlin directly drove his bicycle and rushed over.

"Woo~~ I also failed......"

Faintly, Merlin heard Ami sobbing behind him.

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

"Well, since you have passed the previous four, you should know who I am, right?" The camping boy in a uniform similar to a boy scout stood in front of Merlin, and he said in a rather domineering manner: "I am No. 5 Jichun, I will trample you under my feet!" Terminate your progress! ”

With that, he threw a class ball and released a spirited monkey monster.

[There are really people who dare to subdue this kind of Pokémon......] Seeing that monkey monster jumping around and humming from time to time, Merlin really admires that Jichun for having the courage to train this kind of Pokémon whose brains have been trained into muscle blocks.

Since he is strict and biased towards the ability system, Merlin naturally does not have a high opinion of the fighting system. At least for now.

"Telekinesis." Sighing secretly, Merlin gave the order.

"Monkey monsters use crazy scratching!" Ji Chun also gave the order.

Ji Chun's monkey monster's skills are really different from the wild, especially the degree is particularly amazing, I saw it rush to the front of Duck with a few bounces, fortunately Duck's shot was not slow at this time with a telekinesis trick to knock it out, otherwise it would definitely have to eat a fat beating.

But the speed can't make up for the disadvantage in attributes, and a telekinesis trick successfully makes its eyes circle and lose its combat ability.

[It's so dangerous. Merlin and Duck both muttered in a cold sweat.

"Wow, you're amazing, you're really amazing!" Ji Chun retracted the monkey monster that had lost its combat effectiveness and stepped forward in a few steps, "No wonder it came over so quickly. ”

"Whereever, it's you who have conceded." He was polite, but Merlin didn't think so in his heart: [It's not because you're too weak. 】

[This is called human hypocrisy, one set in the mouth, one thing in the heart, and one thing in the head, so never believe a human being who has not opened his heart to you. Wizier took the opportunity to use Merlin as a negative example to teach Duck a lesson.

[I see~] Duck also sighed in a similar way.

Ignoring the two funny ones in his mind, Merlin continued to wrestle with Jichun.

"Here you go, this is the proof to defeat the five of us." Ji Chun pulled out a neat stack of paper from his jacket pocket and handed it to Merlin.

Taking this seemingly ordinary A4 paper, Merlin's face became strange: "This is a mysterious gift?" He asked, pinching the corner of the paper.

"Not really." Ji Chun said very frankly: "The five of us have been here to form a five-person company for a while, but there have been no prizes, until a few days ago, an uncle said that he would fund us to provide prizes to the winners, so this is a voucher for you to receive the prizes." If you go directly down the bridge, you should be able to find the uncle, he usually stays at the bridge entrance......" As he spoke, Ji Chun also pointed to the other side of the bridge.

"Oh, that's right......" Merlin nodded, "It's strange, why offer prizes for these five guys' challenges?" 】

[When things go wrong, there must be demons. Be careful. Wizil said, "It's not been peaceful lately, so keep an eye on it. 】

[Yes.] 】

Saying goodbye to Jichun and reclaiming Dark, Merlin continued on his bicycle with a heavy face. At the lower bridge, who was waiting for him?
