Chapter 22: The Evolutionary Impulse (Subscription Requested!) Ask for a commuter pass! )
It has been a week since Xu Qiansu came to Jianding Town in the blink of an eye.
Spike Town hasn't changed much with his arrival, it's still the same cyberpunk building, slightly dimly lit streets, and dazzling clutter of neon lights.
The only change may be that there are more normal people, and there are not so many shouting teams in different costumes roaming the streets...... This abnormal town is starting to normalize.
They stripped off their ostentatious clothes and makeup, and continued to live and work in Spike Town.
That's how they've lived for the past decade or so...... It's just that this year, because Marley is going to participate in the Champions Cup, they will go around as a shouting team.
But...... Compared with the wooden pole town, Yuanzhu City, and even Shuizhou Town and Caolu Town that Xu Qiansu has visited, it is indeed too deserted here.
Early in the morning, Xu Qiansu came to the Pokémon Center with the Nine-Tails.
Miss Joy had expected to take out a crimson potion from the inner room and handed it to him, "Our sisters have teamed up with the Doctor to make a new and improved potion...... It took me five full days to get it done. ”
Dr. Mulan spoke with Xu Qiansu on the phone five days ago and talked in detail about the changes in the Nine-Tails' body.
For example, the growth of the fire energy in her body, the all-round improvement of her physical fitness, and other aspects related to strength are not discussed for the time being, just looking at the power of the divine beast in her body, she is a lot more optimistic.
The reason why the six tails are out of control is that they want to control it but they are powerless...... One's eyes are bigger than one's stomach..
After evolving into the Nine-Tails, she was no longer as helpless as she once was in the face of the power of those divine beasts in her body.
The power of the Phoenix King, the fireball slate, the sound of the sky and the power of the Tibetan Marant...... The power of Cangxiang and Tibetan Marant only reacted when Xu Qiansu injected Galal particles into the Nine-Tails, but the power of the Fireball Slate was more than eighty percent of the Nine-Tails at this moment.
Even Maria's mother's four-heavenly king-level fire-breathing dragon was slightly inferior to the Nine-Tails in terms of the destructive power of fire-based skills at this moment.
Therefore...... Although the Nine-Tails did not have the comprehensive strength of the Four Heavenly Kings at the moment, their destructive power was already at the level of the Four Heavenly Kings...... Some are biased, but it is always an improvement in strength.
And the power of the phoenix king ......
After ten minutes later, Xu Qiansu half-squatted down, brewing the power of waveguide at his fingertips, and then swiped lightly on his wrist, and blood beads appeared.
Nine-tails was startled, and then stretched out the tip of his hot and humid tongue to lick the wound on Xu Qiansu's wrist.
Xu Qiansu's eyes narrowed slightly, and a wet and itchy touch came from his wrist, and at the same time, there was a wave guide breath that he was very familiar with.
When the nine-tails retracted the tip of their pink tongue, they saw that Xu Qiansu's three-centimeter-long wound had completely disappeared, and there was not even a scar left.
Nine-Tails blinked, then gently scratched Xu Qiansu's neck with the tip of his tail, and opened his mouth to smile.
She couldn't send and receive the power of the Phoenix King in her heart at the moment, but she could barely control a little...... The specific manifestation is that the body fluids of the nine tails also have a slight healing effect.
Saliva, sweat, blood, etc.
But further up, such as the Crescent Moon prayer of Cresalia, long-distance healing, or even the miracle of resurrecting life like the Phoenix King, the Nine-Tails can't do it.
But it's pretty remarkable...... Anyway, the Nine-Tails is also a Pokémon resurrected by King Feng's own hands, and it is the same as the Three Holy Beasts in terms of personality.
So if it is strictly calculated, regardless of Mewtwo, Xu Qiansu should have two legendary Pokémon.
However, Xu Qiansu, who now owns two legendary Pokémon, was bent by Miss Joy's fingers and flicked his brain.
"What disease do you have? Even if you want to test your healing ability, you don't need to make such a long cut on your hand. If you let Dale know, she'll have to teach you a good lesson. Miss Joy said angrily.
Every Miss Joy who has been in contact with Xu Qiansu basically does not leave Dale, and Xu Qiansu is used to it.
He asked, "Have there been more trainers healing Pokémon lately?" ”
Miss Joy was obviously very idle at the moment, so she pulled over a chair and sat down, her legs in white pantyhose were set up horizontally, one hand was grabbed at the calf, quite a bit of the arrogance of the eldest sister's head, and her other hand propped up her side face, and after thinking for a while, she nodded slightly, "It's more...... Why do you ask this? ”
"Without the Shouting Team, there are more trainers who come to challenge the gym...... But that's not enough. Xu Qiansu silently opened his gaze, stood up, and said.
"God chattering ......" Miss Joy reacted as soon as her words fell, hurriedly covered her skirt with her hands, and glared at Xu Qiansu viciously.
Xu Qiansu pretended not to see it, opened his hand downward, and the nine-tails raised his head, rubbing Xu Qiansu's hand with his head, and his big plush ears went up and down with Xu Qiansu's fingertips.
He came here to drink medicine with the Nine-Tails, and now that the matter is settled, there is no need to stay in the Pokémon Center anymore, but Xu Qiansu looked back at Miss Joy, who was a little ashamed, and pondered a little before asking: "If you wait for Spiky Town to become lively in the future, will Miss Joy be unwilling?" ”
Joey was stunned, his expression of shame subsided a little, sat upright in his chair, and asked with some curiosity: "I'm just Miss Joey in Pokémon Center, how is Spike Town, it doesn't have much to do with me...... So why would I be reluctant? ”
"You seem to be more laid-back than Miss Dale, or even any Miss Joy I know." Xu Qiansu explained.
Miss Joy's eyebrows furrowed, and she thought for a moment before she understood Xu Qiansu's words, if she could live a quiet and comfortable life, who would want to be busy all day?
She is not trapped by her livelihood.
So Xu Qiansu is talking about the impact his move will have on her......
Miss Joy couldn't help but take a closer look at Xu Qiansu's handsome face, and then said, "I see, Dale is still quite discerning......
A trainer hurried from behind the door with a Pokémon.
"But it's the same with me, you have to give a negative score." Miss Joy glanced at the trainer, then withdrew her gaze, looked at Xu Qiansu, smiled, raised her hand slightly, and waved.
Xu Qiansu shook his head and waved his hand at her lightly before leaving the Pokémon Center with the Nine-Tails.
The town of Spike is located to the east of Garrell, and only fifty miles to the east is the sea, and thanks to this, it is relatively rainy, so that the road is full of stagnant water.
Nine-tails didn't want his paws to get wet, so he jumped on Xu Qiansu's back and rested his chin on Xu Qiansu's shoulder.
"Oops...... Xu Qiansu held the nine-tailed fluffy little ass with both hands, and carried her on her back like this.
After evolving into the Nine-Tails, it was no longer possible for her to jump on Xu Qiansu's shoulders as casually as before.
Xu Qiansu began to rejoice from this, fortunately, he practiced martial arts with Master Caidou, and his physical fitness was very good.
Nine-tails stretched out the tip of his pink and moist tongue and licked Xu Qiansu's side face from time to time, and Xu Qiansu smiled because of the itchiness.
When she returned to Miss Mary's house, she saw Lilia kneeling on the carpet in the living room, playing with the lily doll with a leather ball.
Since Xiaoyou's defeat, she has been training for almost twelve hours a day, and Xu Qiansu is the opposite of her, pondering the script in the room every day.
And Miss Marley ...... Even if he lives under the same roof with Xu Qiansu, the two rarely see each other.
Xu Qiansu knew that she was in a complicated mood at the moment, and he didn't take the initiative to look for her.
As for Maria's mother...... Spike Town has a branch of her company, so she spends most of her time there.
Seeing Xu Qiansu, the lily root doll pushed down the ball with her head again, clapped her little hands in the direction of Xu Qiansu, and grinned.
Xu Qiansu reached out and grabbed the ball that flew over, gently threw it at the lily root doll, looked at Liliai, and asked, "I've been staying here lately, it's boring." ”
Lilia stood up, patted her skirt, hesitated, then sighed lightly, sat on the sofa, her calves in white stockings shook slightly, and said honestly: "It's a little ...... Spike Town is eerie, weird and terrifying...... Staying at home all day is inevitably a little boring. ”
The lily root doll vigorously pushed back the ball thrown by Xu Qiansu, but obviously couldn't control the direction and flew directly to the side.
Nine-Tails stretched out a tail, patted it lightly, and bounced the ball back.
Xu Qiansu took out his mobile phone and looked at the date, and then said, "In a week, we should also leave here...... When the time comes, go to Qingxu to have a look. ”
Liliai's eyes lit up, she had never been to Qingxu, but she had only seen some pictures from Rongyue's memory.
Xu Qiansu shook his head slightly, "I originally wanted to take you to all over Sharp Nail Town now...... However, this time period is clearly not appropriate. ”
At the moment when Miss Mary was hesitant about his affairs and had mixed feelings, he took Lilia on a date outside...... Xu Qiansu obviously can't be so heartless.
Lilia was stunned for a moment, then smiled sweetly.
What she said just now did not hint at Xu Qiansu's intention that she wanted to go out on a date...... But she also knew in her heart that she couldn't do this at the moment.
She thought that Xu Qiansu would not mention this matter and fool the past, but Xu Qiansu honestly told her what she thought, which made Lilia feel extremely happy.
"Sun, sun~" Nine-Tails slapped the ball back, and the lily root doll stopped playing again.
She pushed the ball, and then trotted to Xu Qiansu's side, stretched out her little hand to grab his trouser leg, and kept screaming, "Sun Sun".
Lilia looked at the Lily Doll suspiciously, wondering what she was trying to do.
Xu Qiansu squatted down, picked her up, and then came to the cupboard, took out a box of elf food, opened it, and poured it into the food bowl...... The lily root doll laughed.
And so it went on for another three days.
At night, the starry sky is like a curtain, with a faint light shining downward.
A very prosperous city far away from the town of Spikes.
Miyamon, the capital of Galel, is the economic, political and cultural center of the whole of Galel.
In the headquarters building of the Mallo Komon Group, the president of the Galar Alliance, Loz was sitting in an exaggerated office chair and rolling the dice seriously on a luxurious desk, dressed in a smart suit and listening to a little beer belly.
The number is 'two'.
He picked up a small flag in the shape of a bronze statue of the king with a serious face, walked two squares in the form, and then sighed lightly, "Gone to the prison...... It's unfortunate...... Well, I can't say it's unfortunate, after all, it's my own vote. ”
That's right, this heroic figure, who has single-handedly made the economic development of the Galel region for at least a hundred years, is playing 'Monopoly' with a serious face at the moment.
With that, Roz gently beckoned to the black-haired blonde lady in front of him, "It's your turn, Olivia." ”
Olivia, Lodz's secretary and vice president, was once a researcher, and was promoted by Lodz to manage the Maro Comon Group on behalf of Lodz...... Tremendous power.
Olivia stood opposite Loz with the papers, and said unceremoniously with a pair of dead fish eyes that seemed to have not woken up: "Only children play with such boring things." ”
"It's not fun...... Olivia, you can't get married like this. Loz shrugged his shoulders, picked up the dice again, and threw them casually, "Then I'll play for you......"
“…… It's actually five o'clock! Just enough to get to the town of Spike that I want the most!? With a look of dismay, Loz picked up the mountain of dust representing Olivia and moved it to Spike.
Olivia sighed lightly, lowered her eyes and glanced at the 'Monopoly' chessboard a few times, and then said with some disdain: "Spike Town, the development of the Galel is almost useless...... If it weren't for Nie Zi, I'm afraid the developers of this game wouldn't have put Spike Town on the chessboard. ”
"You can't say that, Olivia~" Loz didn't look at her, picked up the dice again, rolled the '3' point, and then his eyes lit up, picked up his 'bronze statue of the king' chess piece, and said with a smile:
"First, Nail Town is also part of the Galel region, and there is no so-called 'useless' theory, and second, be foresighted, Olivia, no one knows what the future of Nail Town will be, just like few people know that in 1000 years, the Galel particles will be completely consumed, and the iron ore, silver mines, and coal mines in Galel will also be exhausted."
Olivia closed her eyes...... It's here again.
She opened her eyes, pressed the document in her hand against Loz's hand, and said, "You are in prison, and you can't act for three rounds...... Cheat prohibited. ”
"Cut, it's boring, Olivia, it's going to be a boring woman if you go on like this."
"You've said 'boring' three times."
Loz let go of the chess piece, rubbed his wrist slightly, and then glanced at Spike Town, then remembered something, withdrew his gaze from the chessboard, and asked, "Xu Qiansu has returned to Galel?" ”
"It's been a while...... But he's been in Spike Town. Olivia replied with a blank expression.
"Alas...... Such a young talent, but he doesn't seem to be interested in Pokémon battles...... It's clear that Pokémon battles are national sports, and it's strange that there are still people in the world who are not interested in Pokémon battles. Loz's tone was full of regret.
"Everyone has their own aspirations, just like you, the supreme leader of the dignified Galel, but you love small games, like you love your big belly." Olivia closed her eyes and replied lightly.
"Poisonous tongue, still such a poisonous tongue, you won't be able to get married." Loz raised his legs, propped up his side face, and turned his head to look at the floor-to-ceiling windows behind him, at this height, he could reflect the bustling night scene of the entire Gongmen City.
After a while, Loz asked, "Xu Qiansu...... Worth touching? ”
"At the moment, it's not necessary." Olivia replied without hesitation.
"Why?"
"Useless against Garrell." Olivia said coldly.
"It's cruel, talking about a living person like a pawn." Loz smiled, and after a while, he said slowly:
"He's just got two badges...... A celebrity like him with his own traffic, if he participates in the Champions Cup, it will definitely make the ratings soar...... It's Caidou's closed disciple again...... If you can annihilate Team Rocket, your strength will not be ......"
Loz groaned slightly, then waved his hand lightly, "Find a reason to give him a qualification to participate in the Champions Cup without collecting badges." ”
Olivia's eyebrows furrowed, "Is that appropriate?" ”
"If you want to tie up the genius, breaking the rules is just the right way to emphasize the importance we attach to him...... It's just a qualification, it's not a big deal. As he spoke, Loz looked sideways at Olivia and said with a smile, "Otherwise, you will approach him in person and use beauty tricks, which will show our sincerity even more." ”
Olivia raised her eyebrows, looked at Loz coldly, and said, "He doesn't have that qualification yet." ”
"What a contempt for people, Olivia." Loz smiled disappreciatively, then straightened down and asked, "How's the night?" ”
"It went on for a while at the beginning of the year, but now it's settled...... Recovery is expected by the end of the year. Olivia replied lightly.
"Within the year...... Loz frowned slightly, and muttered a little, "If the plan succeeds, then we will be famous in history, if it fails...... But it's Garrell's sinner. ”
With that, Loz shook his head again, "But you can't give up at this moment. ”
Xu Qiansu, who was far away in Sharp Nail Town, didn't know that he had attracted the attention of the Galar magnate.
He didn't care, after all, he didn't plan to have anything to do with Loz at all.
He now has his own business to do.
The rattan snake was lying in Xu Qiansu's arms, and his body couldn't help exuding a blue-white halo...... Evolutionary light.
With the strength of the vine vine snake, it should have evolved a long time ago...... If she wanted to, she could evolve anytime, anywhere.
However, the strength of the vine snake is constantly improving, and now with the body of the 'vine snake alone', it is no longer possible to endure its own strength...... That is, it is difficult for her to restrain the impulse to evolve by her own will.
She grabbed Xu Qiansu's shirt tightly with both hands, her eyes were closed, and her face was painful...... Clearly, she was suppressing her evolutionary impulses.
It's like the original Six-Tails, just like the original Chirulian.
