Chapter 67: Fossil Remains, Massage Therapy
"Big pot, use a rolling attack!"
"Elf beast, stop it."
The elf beast was covered in an enchantment and rushed over to collide with the big pot.
Although the size of the goblin beast is much smaller than the large milk tank, its strength is not weak at all.
The two elves kept slamming, and the shock bounced them far away.
"Bitbomb!"
The elf beast throws a bit bomb and hits the big. The big were hurt and fell to the ground.
Referee: "The big pot is incapacitated. Since all three Pokémon of the Gym Trainer are incapacitated, the challenger Witch Horse wins."
"Congratulations, Witch Horse. This is an official badge, so please accept it!" Xiao Qian handed a square badge to Wu Ma.
"Thank you, Miss Akane."
After obtaining the badge, Wu Ma and Xiaomi left the Manjin Gym. The two did not continue to stay in Manjin City, but set off for the next city. It had been decided before, and the next city they were going to was Yuanzhu City.
On the way to the city of Yuanzhu, Wu Ma and Mi came to a ruin.
"This place seems to be called the Ruins of Alufu." Xiaomi said as he looked at the introduction on the map.
"It is said that many ancient Pokémon fossils have been found here."
"Then let's take a look."
Wuma is very interested in ancient Pokémon. A look at some of the ruins may reveal some important information.
Witch Horse and Millet come to the ruins, which have been mined for a long time. The ruins have been dug down about five or six meters.
You can see that there are some yellowed bones on the surrounding rock walls, which should be fossils. Of course, it is the members of the official archaeological team who come here to dig up the fossils, unlike the previous ones that can be dug up at will.
The two arrived at a location where the fossil had been found, where several staff members were cleaning up the dirt and stones next to the fossil. They were ready to dig up the fossils.
"Brother Wuma, what kind of Pokémon fossil do you think this is?" Millet asked, looking curiously at the fossil.
Wu Ma took a look at it, and it felt a bit like a fossil of a bird Pokémon.
"It's a fossil of a fossilized pterosaur." A voice came.
Wu Ma turned his head and saw an acquaintance.
"Mr. Zhenghui, why are you here?"
It was Zhenghui who spoke just now.
"Long time no see, Witch Horse. I'm here, of course, for fossils. It is said that a lot of ancient Pokémon fossils have been found here recently, so I stopped by to take a look. What about you?"
"We're going to Yuanzhu City." Xiaomi replied.
"Mr. Zhenghui, has your research progressed?"
"There are some. I talked to Dr. Soragi before. His material has been of great help to my research. Thank you for that."
"No thanks, I didn't do anything. I just think that if there is more communication between researchers, maybe we can move forward with research."
"Mr. Masaki, you said this is a fossil of a fossilized pterosaur?" Xiaomi asked.
"That's right. You can see that it has a few pointed bones on its tail, which is consistent with the characteristics of fossil pterosaurs. At the same time, do you look at the bones on its wings that are different from those of birds? Those two wings are more like the wings of a bat, and they are also very similar to the characteristics of fossil pterosaurs."
Wu Ma took a closer look and found that it was really true.
"Let's go, I'll take you somewhere else."
Zhenghui took Wu Ma and Millet around the ruins and saw a lot of fossils being excavated. As you can see, the excavation of the fossils was quite hard work. Fossils are very fragile, and when excavating, you have to be careful and careful.
After that, Zhenghui led the two to a house.
"Is this house dedicated to research or a research institute?" Zhenghui introduced.
"Long time no see, Satake." Zhenghui greeted a researcher.
"You're finally here, Masaki." Satake was also very happy to see Masaki.
"I'll introduce you to you. This is Satake, who has studied ancient Pokémon deeply." Zhenghui introduced to Wuma and Xiaomi.
"Hello, Mr. Satake, I'm a witch horse from the Kanto region. He's my companion, Millet."
"Hello." Satake smiled and nodded.
"Satake, didn't you tell me you made a big discovery?" Zhenghui asked.
"Yes, if it were published, it would cause a stir in the academic community. I'm sure it's not at all inferior to your previous article."
"Oh, yes? Then I'd like to see it." Zhenghui was very interested.
"Come with me."
Satake led everyone to the room inside. You can see that there are a lot of glass cabinets here, and there are various fossils in the cabinets.
"These are the fossils of ancient Pokémon that we dug up here. What do you think? Isn't it a lot?"
Wu Ma discovers that the ancient Pokémon he knows are basically fossils here.
Satake: "Through research, we found out that ancient Pokémon have been around since 2 million years ago. But with some recent research, I think it's possible that it was earlier."
"I remember an article you published earlier that suggested that the ocean was the origin of Pokémon." Zhenghui said.
Satake nodded: "That's right, what I'm advocating is the origin of the Ocean Pokémon, and it hasn't changed. I believe that all life originates from the sea, and Pokémon are no exception."
Wu Ma nodded after hearing Satakekami's point of view next to him. This point of view is similar to the origin theory that Wu Ma had heard before. However, Wu Ma feels that the origin of Pokémon is not as simple as imagined.
"Alright, I'm going to take you to see a discovery that will shock the academic community."
Satake led everyone into a room. The space inside is very large, like a forest.
Suddenly, a figure flew over, startling everyone.
"Fossil pterosaurs!?"
Wu Ma discovered that the figure turned out to be a fossil pterosaur.
"No, that's not true."
Wu Ma discovered that there were two threads hanging from the sky above the fossil pterosaur.
"This is a fossil pterosaur that we made based on the latest information from ancient Pokémon and the most advanced technology. Based on the materials we found in our research, we have made this a secret space similar to the living environment of ancient Pokémon. This space is still under construction and is not open to the public."
"And what exactly is the big discovery you are talking about?" Zhenghui asked impatiently.
"You're too anxious, aren't you? Come with me, everybody, and I'll take you there."
Satake led everyone to a lake.
"This lake is also a map that we have modeled based on the information we have found. Here's the secret I'm going to tell."
Suddenly, several figures slowly crawled out of the lake.
"It's spiny ammonitemons and ammonites!"
Everyone was very surprised to see the two Pokémon that came out.
"Are these Pokémon alive?" Miko asked.
"That's right, these are indeed nearby ammonites and spiny ammonitemons that are alive." Satake replied.
"Satake, how did these ammonite beasts find out?" Zhenghui asked.
"When I found them, they had already run here. I suspect it's because the environment here is similar to the environment they lived in in ancient times, so they stayed here and didn't want to leave."
"Mr. Satake, you said it would be open. Once opened, these Pokémon that have been wiped out may cause a lot of shock." Wu Ma said with some concern.
Satake nodded and said, "That's right. That's why I let Zhenghui come over. We're still thinking about it, and there's no way to deal with it."
"Do you have any ideas?" Satake asked Masaki.
"Ancient Pokémon really don't fit into people's eyes right now. The best thing to do is to transfer them. But they love it so much that they might come back even if they move away."
Satake nodded, "That's right, that's what we've been struggling with."
How to deal with ancient Pokémon can't be decided for a while. Everyone was hungry and went to the institute's cafeteria for lunch.
Satake still has work to do, so he didn't come to accompany them.
"Wu Ma, what do you think you should do?" Zhenghui asked.
"I don't have a good way to do this. From what information I have so far, ancient Pokémon appeared in clusters. That said, there may be more ammonites, spiny ammonites, and even other ancient Pokémon in the vicinity. My suggestion is that if you want to keep the ancient Pokémon thing a secret, the ancient Pokémon park should not be opened yet."
Zhenghui sighed and said, "I'll discuss this matter with them."
There is no good way to deal with this matter. So he decided to leave after eating.
"Mr. Masaki, do you want to stay here?"
"Of course, I finally saw the ammonite beast, so naturally I want to stay and study it carefully. I've made some progress in my previous experiments, and maybe I'll be able to resurrect other ancient Pokémon after observing ammonitemons this time."
"Alright, we'll take our leave."
Wuma and Xiaomi left the Ancient Pokémon Research Institute and continued to set off towards Yuanzhu City.
After a day of walking, Wu Ma and Millet came to a forest.
"Brother Wuma, it looks like it's about to rain." Millet said, looking at the gloomy sky.
"Find a place to shelter from the rain as soon as possible."
It's normal to encounter rain in the wild, and everyone is used to it.
"Brother Wuma, you see there's a house over there."
Wu Ma looked over and saw that there was a huge house on the hillside over there. It is indeed a little strange to have such a large house in the forest.
By this time, raindrops had already begun to fall in the air. Gradually, the rain became heavier and heavier.
"Let's go, let's go hide for a while."
Witch Horse released the goblin beast. The elven beast opened the barrier and blocked the rain.
However, the fairy beast can't continue the enchantment for long, so it still has to go to the house to hide from the rain.
When he came to the front of the house, Wu Ma realized that the house was bigger than he had imagined.
"Hello, is anyone here?" We want to go in and take shelter from the rain." Millet knocked on the door and shouted.
However, no one responded.
"The elf beast pushes it slightly, and the door opens directly."
"Don't open the door randomly!" The witch horse knocked the elf beast on the head, then took it back to the Poké Ball.
"Let's go, let's go in and have a look."
Wu Ma and Xiaomi walked into the house, and what caught their eyes was an empty hall.
"Is anyone there, please?" Xiaomi shouted.
At this moment, a woman in a white coat walked out.
"Are you here for treatment?"
"Healing?" The two didn't understand what it meant.
"I'm sorry, we're not here to heal. It's raining outside, so I want to come in and take shelter." Wuma explained.
"I see. It doesn't matter, you can hide from the rain here. Of course, if you want to experience the treatment, you can. My name is Anna, and I'm the doctor here."
"I'm a witch horse."
"My name is Xiaomi."
The two introduced themselves in turn.
"Dr. Anna, what do you mean by treatment?" Wuma asked.
"That's right, in fact, this is a Pokémon healing clinic. Here we will use the abilities of some Pokémon to heal patients. For example, Haoli will use itself
The power of doing a body massage. The silk thread of the round spider is a very good tool to stop bleeding and can also be used as a bandage. The electric current released by the baa sheep relaxes the body. These are all our treatments."
"I see, I'd like to try it too." Millet said with a smile.
"Okay, there haven't been any guests lately, so there's no need to queue."
The two followed Anna into the room. There are a lot of beds in the room and you can see two people here doing massage therapy and discharge therapy.
Anna: "Please change your clothes and lie down on the bed!"
Millet ran into the locker room and changed into clothes. Wu Ma didn't change his clothes, he planned to take a good look at them first.
Soon, Millet came out in her clothes.
"Please lie in bed and we will make a diagnosis and treatment for you first."
Millet did as Anna said and lay down on the bed.
"Sonic bat, please."
A supersonic bat flew over and released an ultrasound wave at Xiaomi.
The sonic bat also has a device attached to its body, which can absorb the sound waves that bounce back from the human body and observe the state of the human body.
Soon, Xiaomi's test data came out.
"Your body is very healthy, but the blood in your legs is not flowing well, so you can choose massage therapy."
"Okay, that's for you."
"Haoli, come over here."
Anna called a Haoli over.
"Haoli, please massage his legs."
Haoli directly massaged, and it can be seen that its technique is quite professional.
"Ah! It's so cool! It's so comfortable!"
"Lighter, lighter, it hurts!"
"There will be some pain during the massage, so be patient a little. It's very comfortable after the massage."
"How? Would you like to give it a try?" Anna looked at the witch horse with a smile.
"No, I don't need any treatment?" Wuma shook his head and refused.
As long as you don't check it, you won't find any disease, which is the tenet pursued by Wuma.
"Alright, I've treated you. It's the bill." Anna handed the bill to Xiaomi.
"It's so expensive!"
Xiaomi looked at the bill and was completely stunned. He didn't expect that just a massage would be so expensive.
Wu Ma covered his mouth and snickered. He knew that the price of the service carried out in such a luxurious room was definitely not low.
Xiaomi tearfully handed over the money.
"It's expensive, but it's really comfortable." Mi smiled a little stiffly.
"If you like it, we look forward to seeing you again."
"Brother Wuma, let's continue to set off!"
Xiaomi doesn't want to stay here anymore. If he stays a little longer, maybe he'll want to have an electrotherapy massage or something. When the time comes, he will literally run out of money.
"Then Miss Anna, we'll take our leave."
The rain outside had stopped, and Wu Ma and Xiaomi left the house and continued to walk towards Yuanzhu City.
After walking for a few days, Wu Ma and Millet came to a river.
The river is not very wide, but you can find that the water is very deep and very clear. Standing on the shore, you can also see several Pokémon swimming through the water system from time to time.
"Alright, let's rest here." Wu Ma said.
There is a water source and a nice view, so you can take a break and have lunch here.
Soon, Wu Ma set up a simple kitchen. He boiled water and prepared to cook some noodles.
"Come out, everybody."
Xiaomi released all his Pokémon. The Pokémon were swimming happily in the river, and they were very happy. Water-type Pokémon still prefer to stay in the water.
"Millet, the noodles are ready."
Wu Ma handed Millet a bowl of noodles, and the two sat on the shore and ate it.
At this time, several Pokémon were playing, and the water splashed on the bodies of Wu Ma and Xiaomi.
"Mosquito frogs, don't be naughty like this."
"Huh?"
Xiaomi suddenly saw that a Pokémon that looked very similar to the mosquito frog and was larger appeared next to it.
"That's an evolution of the mosquito frog, the fast swimming frog." Wu Ma said.
"Swim frog, is this just a wild Pokémon?"
Xiaomi took the Pokémon Illustrated Book and looked at the information of the fast swimming breast.
I saw the fast swimming frog punch the mosquito frog in the head and smash it into the water.
"Hey, what are you doing?"
Xiaomi was a little angry when she saw that her mosquito coil frog was injured.
"My fast swimmer, what's wrong?" A boy with a fishing rod suddenly walked out.
"It's your fast swimming breast. How can your Pokémon casually attack someone else's Pokémon?"
The boy said very proudly, "My fast swimming breasts are swimming happily in the water, and you guys are making trouble. I just got beaten and fell, it's so useless."
"What did you say?" When Xiaomi heard the other party's words, she became even more angry.
"Your mosquito coil frog hasn't evolved yet, it must be because of inexperience. It's normal that a trainer like you can't grow up."
Xiaomi clenched her fists and gasped for air. He really wanted to teach this boy a lesson.
"Would you please research the information before talking about the others?" Wu Ma said suddenly.
"If the mosquito frog wants to evolve, it must use the Water Stone or the King's Crown. Your fast swimmer frog also evolved with the Water Stone, right? What does this have to do with trainers and experience?"
"I dare say that even if yours is an evolved fast swimmer, you can't beat Xiaomi's mosquito frog."
Xiaomi was a little angry when she heard Wu Ma's words. z.br>
"That's right, do you dare to fight me?"
"Battle? Don't want to. I have important things to do, so I'll go first."
The boy put away the fast swim breasts and quickly left.
"Brother Wuma, what should I do, I really want to beat him!" Millet said with his fists clenched.
"If you want to beat it, why bear it?"
After getting Wu Ma's approval, Xiaomi said very firmly, "Okay, let's go after him!"
Wu Ma and Xiaomi quickly put away the dishes, and then chased in the direction the boy left.
It didn't take long for them to see a lot of people with fishing rods.
"That boy was also holding a fishing rod in his hand just now, is there any activity?" Xiaomi asked.
"Just ask."
Wu Ma walked over and asked a young man, "Hello, where are you going with your fishing rod?"
"We're going to the front for the King Goldfish Fishing Tournament."
"Fishing convention? Can anyone participate?"
"That's right. If you want to participate, go now. The convention is going to start soon, so I won't talk to you any more."
The boy walked quickly towards the front.
"Brother Wuma, should we go over?" Xiaomi asked.
"Of course, aren't you going to beat that boy up? He's holding a boom, so he's probably going to a fishing tournament too."
Wu Ma and Xiaomi followed the crowd to the venue of the conference.
There is a large lake next to it, and there are a lot of Pokémon in it, especially the target of the fishing tournament, King Goldfish.
There was a platform set up on the shore, and the host was speaking on it.
"Next, I announce the rules of the King Goldfish Fishing Conference. You can bring your own fishing rod, or if you don't have one, you can rent one. Whoever can catch the heaviest king goldfish within the specified time is the champion of this conference. The winner gets a trophy and a vintage of chocolate."
There was a pile of chocolates on a small table next to it.
Witch Horse
Some doubts, a year of chocolate, will not eat expired? Also, who eats chocolate every day? It's a strange reward.
The host continued, "Also, there is only one Pokémon as a fishing partner, so please go over there and register."
"Brother Wuma, I found him." Millet pointed to the boy in front of him and said.
"Let's go, let's go."
Xiaomi patted the boy on the shoulder.
The other person turned around and shouted, "Why are you following me?"
"Didn't you say my mosquito frog was weak? Let's have a fight!"
"I don't want to fight, why don't we compete with the king goldfish that we catch."
Xiaomi thought about it for a moment and agreed.
"Well, if I win, you'll have to apologize to me."
"No problem. If you lose, shout that your Pokémon are garbage."
"A good word is a certainty!"
Looking at the serious Xiaomi, Wu Ma smiled. This kind of unyielding strength has not been experienced for a long time after he left the forest island.
Millet and the boy walked to the side and registered.
"My name is Shifu, and my fishing partner is a fast swimmer."
"My name is Xiaomi, and my partner is Mosquito Frog."
After registering, Millet went to rent fishing rods and bait.
