"The two players threw their respective Pokéballs at the same time, and although the two trainers had an age gap of more than ten years, the pitching skills of both sides were indistinguishable, whether it was strength, speed or angle, they were standard, but in terms of the grade of the Pokéballs they held, Merlin was superior, and he threw a high-level ball after personal painting."

The narrator, Jun pulled his throat and expressed his own unique opinions in what he considered to be the most passionate voice, or more accurately, some obvious nonsense...... The update is so fast. The commentators, who sit in the private rooms on the top floors of high-end facilities with floor-to-ceiling windows, live screens, loudspeakers, and a central climate control system, are tasked with providing detailed commentary on the event for non-trainers and Pokémon enthusiasts. Since it was the first few rounds of elimination, there was only one live commentator for each match, and after the fifth round, as the battle became more intense and the battle was longer, an additional commentator or two were added to help adjust it.

A series of conference and alliance staff, such as commentators, resident commissioners, security officers, and media liaisons, were crammed into this room about 100 or so in size, each busy with their own work. Only this time, these staff members are very restrained in their busyness, their faces are nervous, their expressions are dull, and their movements are cautious.

The reason why the staff at the scene were so abnormal was mainly because of the existence of two guys sitting around the small coffee table in the corner of the room. Although these two old men, who are probably more than a century and a half years old, have no intention of disturbing the normal flow of the conference or disturbing the normal working conditions of the staff, their unique identity and powerful aura have unconsciously disturbed the atmosphere and state in this room.

Holding a steaming cup of tea, an old woman said to the older man beside her, who was recuperating with her eyes closed, "The master has actually come to watch this little slippery head compete in person. It seems that you still have a lot of importance for this disciple who does not enter the wall, and it doesn't seem to be as insisted on by yourself. ”

The old man moved his eyes slightly, but he never raised his eyelids, "I'm just idle and bored to go to Juzi to pass the time and drink some tea." Encountering his first battle was just a coincidence. ”

"Hehe, master craftsman, you are really" The old woman took a sip of hot tea, and then put the cup on the table, but her hands were still holding the old smooth porcelain, "The four of us are guarding in four venues, and you chose my side alone, I'm afraid it's not so simple to rub my tea and drink."

The old man didn't pay attention to Juzi's question, but said to himself: "Speaking of which, I'm also quite curious, how many surprises do you guys secretly plan to prepare for that little slippery head's first conference experience?"

"Well," the old woman smiled slightly, "to the extent that the rules allow," she said, moving her gaze out the window and looking out at the clear blue and cloudless sky over the plateau, "we will try to give him the most difficult meeting he will ever forget." After speaking, the old woman withdrew her gaze from afar, and gazed at her master again, "We are more curious about how many secrets this little boy still has. We still don't know much about this guy, and it's a bad feeling."

"I'm afraid, even that little ghost himself doesn't know how many secrets he has," the old man opened a pair of slightly cloudy eyes slightly, and stared at the scenery outside the window with a meaningful gaze, "Besides, a guy like him who seems to me to be almost harmless, even if he has a little secret, it is harmless." He is a person who knows how to measure, knows how to advance and retreat, and can cooperate with peace of mind. ”

The old woman shook her head slightly, "But this is far from enough for the Guandu Alliance. She sighed lightly, "At least for the Guandu Alliance at this stage, it is far from enough. ”

"I do not see any necessary connection between what you are doing now and what you are seeking." The old man picked up the teacup in front of him and poured a sip of steaming bitter tea, "It seems that you little devils are hiding something from me."

The smile on the old woman's face froze briefly for a moment and then quickly melted again, "You are thinking too much, you are now at the helm of Guandu, how can we hide anything from you?"

"Less." The old man waved his hand unceremoniously, and thought about the old woman's words, "If it weren't for the sake of driving away those fools, I wouldn't have come out." Moreover, Kikuko, you'd better remember to me that the era of the Supreme and the Heavenly King leading the alliance has passed, and now is not the past, you better not try to go against the tide, I agree with some of your demands to strengthen the special privilege, but this is all with a bottom line and limitations. ”

"Look where you are talking and talking" The old woman hurriedly picked up the teacup to stop the old man's chatter, and interrupted: "Some things that are completely irrelevant, why do you just get involved together, let's watch the game with peace of mind, your last disciple seems to be a little unsatisfactory."

On the grassy field, a vague emerald green figure was dancing in the fire network composed of sharp missile needles flying in the sky, and with the bright white missile needles as the background, the emerald green figure was dancing a brilliant sword dance.

On the opposite side of the green sword dancer, the one who created a huge missile needle fire network was a yellow figure that was flying rapidly, dragging a phantom with a light purple outline, and the yellow figure drew a trajectory in mid-air, spreading a huge number of missile needles to besiege the green dancer.

"It's a splendid dance," the narrator's passionate voice was heard throughout the arena through loudspeakers arranged throughout the venue, "Shinichiro's Needle Bee's long-lasting acceleration effect through his high-speed movement trick has raised his movement speed level to an extreme speed that is difficult for the human eye to capture." Moreover, Shinichiro's big needle bee seems to have terrifying physical reserves and energy reserves, and the missile needle stunt that has not stopped from the beginning to the present has always maintained a highly dense number and enough lethality, which is really powerful."

"On the other hand, our Merlin player, his flying mantis can catch up with the speed of the big needle bee after the high-speed movement bonus with its own speed alone, but it is just a line behind, and we have to admire the swordsmanship of the Merlin player's flying mantis, which is simply too gorgeous and gorgeous, and the audience at the scene may not be able to appreciate this beauty, but the audience who broadcasts it through the video signal can appreciate the unique beauty of this extremely accurate and extremely concise and effective sword dance through slow motion after slow motion”

"Since the war between the two sides, none of the countless missile needles made by the big needle bee have successfully broken through the sword dance built by the flying mantis with its own double blades, that is to say, since the beginning to the present, the flying mantis of the Merlin player has not been damaged at all, but the consumption of physical strength by such a high frequency of defense and movement must be very huge, even if the flying mantis uses the sword dance trick to adjust and add to itself, even if the cut trick itself is not too big for all aspects, But how long this defense will last is still a question mark."

In the entire venue, apart from the cheers and shouts of the audience, the commentator was the loudest in hysterical live commentary. The noisy noise and the non-paused nonsense of the narrator completely dominated the sound of the venue and was the undisputed leitmotif. If it weren't for the fact that there were several hidden microphones in each of the trainers' positions that could play the instructions and voices of the two participants through separate loudspeakers, I am afraid that the two people standing at opposite ends of the venue would not have heard each other's voices at all.

"Is it just a passive defense" Shinichiro on the green table habitually touched behind his ear to touch the emptiness, and then remembered that his beloved hand-rolled cigarettes were forcibly confiscated by the staff before going on the field, and his hands were idle and panicked, and his mouth was even more empty, Shinichiro scratched the back of his head in some annoyance, "Then try to solve you as quickly as possible." ”

He raised his arm sharply, pointed at the green figure on the other side, and said the second command after the war: "Spread all over the ground." ”

The ground heard the command from the young trainer on the other side from the loudspeaker under his feet, Merlin secretly wondered to himself, the idea that the sky was full of missile needles, and the idea of filling the ground with poisonous spikes was fleeting in Merlin's mind, and it was too uncreative. And the next action of the big needle bee on the opposite side directly verified Merlin's whim.

I saw that the big needle bee that had maximized the speed increase by moving at high speed continued to maintain its indefinite trajectory and flew wildly, while changing its original double needle forward and flat extension at the same time into a separate action of the left needle extending forward and the right needle pointing downward, and then the needle limb pointing down changed from the original wild white light to an ominous dark purple, and then, from the right needle, countless large or small dark purple sharp tribulus terrestris gushed out and then fell to the ground, a big "hidden" In between, middle, or above green vegetation.

Isn't it so uncreative, so perfunctory, Merlin complained a little in his mind.

"This is really a skill that can only be used at the elite level, and the player who releases two completely different tricks at the same time is worthy of being a real elite-level trainer with more than ten tournament experience, and this high-end skill is so handy to apply" The narrator did not hesitate to praise Shinichiro and his big needle bee.

Poison Spikes block the ground, which is a good idea indeed. Although Aichi has flight attributes, it cannot fly off the ground for a long time in the true sense, and always needs to return to the ground. Merlin also praised his opponent slightly, but just like that, it doesn't seem like an elite level

Merlin raised his head and looked at the young man opposite, who always seemed a little lazy, with a suspicious gaze, as if he wanted to see through him. Merlin muttered to himself, are you leaving your hands behind, deliberately creating a flaw and waiting for me to take the bait, or is there something else Merlin, who is too active and divergent in his thinking, fell into deep distress.

Since his opponent is a real elite, he is ready to leave no backs or even expose part of his strength in the first round. However, the elite level he encountered did not seem to really belong to the elite level of high combat power, at least not enough combat power has been exposed yet. Although it seems that the battle between Merlin and Shinichiro has been very lively, this level of confrontation may only be regarded as a warm-up or tentative contact for the elite level, and it cannot be called a real battle at all.

It stands to reason that the two sides have been trying for several rounds, and each has a basic understanding of each other's general data, so it should be time to gradually show their strength to win or lose. But the Shinichiro on the other side still looked lazy, and he didn't raise the intensity of the battle at all. It seems that this Shinichiro is just planning to deal with Merlin with a basic attrition tactic that can only work for mid-to-high-level trainers.

This discovery annoyed and hesitated a little to Merlin. He wasn't sure if the other party was really simply despising him, or if he was going to use his own impatience to force him to attack in advance.

Well, if my opinion is concerned, I think it's more likely that he really just despised you. Wizier chattered in Merlin's mind, don't forget that your official stats are only a beginner, even if you are given a level or two upwards, the guy on the other side will at most just treat you as a mid-to-high-level rookie, and some perfunctory or even slack is probably normal. And don't forget, Ai Chi has been suppressing its strength under your instructions, and now the strength it shows is between the high and the elite or the low

I was underestimated by Merlin with a wry smile and scratching his sideburns. Pretending to be a pig and eating a tiger is definitely not a pleasant experience to be treated as a pig. Merlin enjoyed the look of disbelief on the other side's face when he peeled off the pigskin to reveal his true body, but he was very unhappy with the fact that he was being treated as a weak chicken by his opponent.

Unconsciously, Merlin, who is accustomed to disguising himself as a weakling, seems to have a little self-esteem as a "strong". Perhaps it was the effect of the unique emotional rendering brought about by being in front of the public, being in the arena, or maybe it was really a little self-confidence in his own strength for no reason, Merlin seemed to be planning to completely tear apart the image of the "weakling" he had been working so hard to maintain in the venue of the quartz conference.

"It turns out that it's really underestimated, it's really a little unpleasant" Merlin's index finger quickly brushed the back of his index finger on the edge of his upper lip, "Ai Chi, let him see your real dancing" His right hand snapped a loud finger in the air, Merlin took the initiative to raise the level of the war and launched a strong attack.

After receiving the clear instructions from his trainer, the flying mantis Ai Chi, who had been preparing and warming up, slightly hooked the corners of his mouth, revealing a satisfied cruel smile, and his eyes became sharp. Then, the speed of the dancing twin blades suddenly increased by an order of magnitude, and the entire body was accompanied by a dazzling ball of sword light and sword shadows, and suddenly rushed towards the big needle bee in the air that was still making double moves.

"Hmm" Shinichiro, who had always been in a lazy state on the other side, was obviously a little surprised after hearing Merlin's declaration and seeing the power of the Flying Mantis suddenly bursting out, but after being stunned for a moment, he suddenly laughed: "Ha, that's interesting." He twisted his neck, making his joints rattle, "Then I'm going to be serious." He raised his clenched fists, "For the sake of a better guy, for a higher ranking, I will also give my best." You have to be careful, little one."

He flashed a bright smile at Merlin, then raised his hand and pointed at it, and once again commanded: "Full fire"

As soon as he heard Shinichiro's command, the big needle bee suddenly burst out with power again, and the speed that had seemed to have been stuck in a bottleneck rose several levels again, leaving only a vague phantom after passing through the air. The missile needles and poisonous spikes that shot out of the twin needles also suddenly became more dangerous, and the originally thick missile needles became a puff of hair-thin hair-thin needles, and the needles were almost transparent and could only barely find a trace of their trajectory through a little reflection after flying out. And the purple tribulus terrestris, which was originally of different sizes and shapes, also turned into beautiful and colorful purple sharp crystals, which quickly merged into the land or vegetation after falling on the ground, and what fell into the air instantly disappeared and became invisible, and I don't know whether it turned into colorless poisonous gas or hid its form by some other means.

"Oh, what's going on, the battle between the two sides has suddenly entered a white-hot stage" The narrator also seemed a little caught off guard by the sudden change in the situation on the battlefield. Generally speaking, the battles of the regional conference rarely have unreserved head-on confrontations at the elite level and above, because first of all, in such an occasion with insufficient protection level, the confrontation above the elite level will inevitably injure the spectators in the stands, and secondly, the battle of this level is a dizzying and gorgeous performance for the layman and the guys who are not strong enough, but it is not as lively and interesting as the low-level battles.

The staff in the private room on the top floor were also a little flustered because of the sudden outbreak of elite confrontation on the field, and trainers whose strength reached the elite level or above would be told to rein in their strength before competing, but obviously no one thought to notify a trainer with superpowers who was only at the junior level to let him restrain the strength of the elite or above. As soon as this unplanned situation occurred, many conference staff were in a panic.

The security officer had the intention to stop the game out of concern for the safety of the general public watching the game, but the presence of the two absolute big people in the room made it difficult for him to make his own decisions, so he had to look at the two old men with an inquiring gaze.

"Stinky boy." The old gentleman muttered, "It's also my fault, I forgot to tell him in advance." He responded to the security officer's inquiry with a sharp gaze, "However, don't you have a corresponding emergency plan?"

The young dignitaries could withstand the old man's fierce questioning, and responded with a reluctant laugh: "If there is a plan, it is okay to temporarily suspend the game or forcibly activate the special protection system, after all, several arenas of the conference will arrange special confrontation matches, so there is also a corresponding level of protection, but because it is a competition in the conference, it has not been activated" The key member finally stumbled and explained with patience and uneasiness in his heart.

"Then what else is there to ask, just start the special protection directly." The old man said indifferently.

"However, you need advanced privileges to activate Special Protection, and I'm only a beginner," the key member continued to explain reluctantly, "and it takes some time for protection to be activated"

"Trouble." The old man muttered unhappily, "Kikuko, I'm afraid you'll have to go out if you have advanced authority" The old man turned his gaze to the old woman, "As for the waiting time, or else"

"Master, you don't have to worry at all." The old woman smiled slightly, "For these young people who are under key care, several of us have already prepared in advance, and the special protection of the venue has been activated in advance, so you don't need to worry at all." After speaking, the old woman narrowed her eyes slightly and stared at the young dignitary, and then made him tremble, "If you don't believe me, you can confirm it." ”

The security officer moved to his position with a bitter face, as if he could cry at any moment, and after operating on a large and clumsy machine for a while, he moved his steps back and reported: "The special protection has indeed been triggered and put into operation, and everything is normal at the moment, and the citizens in the stands are very safe."

"Well, that's good." The old man waved his hand carelessly and drove away the trembling young dignitary. Juzi also put away her previous sternness, and gently pulled the poor guy to comfort and enlighten him for a while before letting him go.

"It's a master craftsman, this little guy has improved very quickly, and he has already entered the elite level, which can be regarded as a bit of talent." After encouraging the young dignitary, who had almost lost confidence and was extremely depressed, Mrs. Kikuko began to chat with the old man again, "Although it is very immature, and it is obviously only the level of entry, it is a good achievement. ”

"You said that the two of them were elites before they followed that little ghost, but they haven't made much significant progress for so long, it seems that they are still a little wronged by following that little ghost." The old gentleman not only did not praise Merlin, but began to count him down vigorously, "This bastard boy seems to have not run in with the two brothers much, and the cooperation between them is still too rusty. In particular, the insect department could not receive his psychic instructions, which made the cooperation between them a huge loophole. I really haven't grown, and it's almost the same level as when I was there."

Kikuko listened with a smile as the old gentleman counted Merlin mercilessly, but she didn't listen to them into her ears at all. Her master is one of the top Pokémon trainers in the world, and she can be called the best of the special trainers. It's almost impossible to get some positive comments from him about Pokémon breeding and combat. You must know that even with her own identity, status and strength today, she doesn't want to get a positive evaluation from this old man named Zang. What's more, now that Mr. Zang is evaluating a rookie who has barely stepped into the elite threshold at the beginning, it is not even good to hear any good words, it is already good if he is not scolded.

Therefore, Kikuko didn't care at all what her master had to say of Merlin. She only believes what she sees and what she feels.
