Chapter 32 Chapter 32

Come out of Black Gold City and head north.

Leo Lu and Li Zhuang Chicken headed for the next human town along Route 206, the dense jungle next to it.

Under the introduction of Mr. Gunten, who has been to many large and small cities in his long life with rich experience.

If Riolu wants to continue to study the history of humans and even Pokémon more deeply, perhaps the most suitable city for him is EMI City in the north.

"A city that connects the past to today..."

Riolu muttered to himself.

Looking at this elegant and modern metropolis standing in front of me.

Li Zhuangji didn't think there was any difference between EMI City and Heijin City.

After all, who would force Pokémon to have any aesthetic concepts?

Riolu can appreciate the historical flavor of EMI City inside and outside the city.

"It is indeed a city with a long history."

"Perhaps here, we may really be able to find clues to the history of humans and Pokémon."

"It seems that you are really going on an adventure!"

A familiar voice sounded behind him.

Riolu and Strong Chicken turned around.

But he found that the person standing in front of him was an old acquaintance.

It was only a few days apart, and it was really brave to challenge the head of the Heijin Gymnasium in Heijin City, Piaotai!
Zhenyong looked up and looked around:
"Let's go, anyway, I'm here for a few days first."

"Let me be a tour guide for the two of you this time. Let's take a good look at this historic EMI city."

Really brave strides ahead.

Riolu translated Zhenyong's words to Li Zhuang Chicken.

Two Pokémon followed Zhenyong, although this guy was not trustworthy.

But how to say, can be regarded as half acquaintances.

"Oh, right!"

Zhenyong, who was walking in front, took out a badge from his arms. It was a blade-like badge composed of three green squares, one big, two small, one up and two down.

"I have obtained the badge of the forest of EMI City."

"Although it is a pity that the first badge is not a carbon badge, but there is no way, maybe I am too strong!"

"There is another point, although only for a few days."

"However, under my training, the two-tailed monster has become much stronger."

"Speaking of which, she is also responsible for winning the Forest Badge of EMI Gymnasium this time!"

"arrive……"

"This is a famous scenic spot that EMI City has to come to - an ancient Pokémon sculpture!"

Zhenyong suddenly stopped, Leolu and Lizhuangji looked up.

Standing in front of people is a huge and magnificent Pokémon sculpture!

"It's a sculpture of Dialga and Palkia."

"During a fairly long period of history in the past, the location of this sculpture was the center of various celebrations in EMI."

"Even today, this place is a must for all tourists passing through EMI."

Riolu circled around the huge sculpture of ancient Pokémon twice, looking at it carefully.

"The birth of Dialga gives us time. Whether we laugh or shed tears, time passes equally, all because of Dialga's gift."

"The birth of Palkia created countless spaces. Whether we live in the world or turn into dust, we are all in the same space, all because of Palkia's creation."

The inscription next to the statue shows the magical power of the powerful ancient Pokémon that they admire.

Humans, Pokémon, and even the whole world...

Are they all created by ancient Pokémon...

Touching the mottled and faded inscription, Leolu couldn't help but expand his mind and think deeper and further.

At this time, Zhenyong said again:
"You have all seen the EMI Gymnasium, right?"

"Just after entering EMI City, the huge building in the east."

"Compared with the Black Gold Gym, EMI Gymnasium is not so easy—the reason why I was able to obtain the Forest Badge, I have to say, is also a fluke."

"The main dish of EMI Gymnasium, one who is good at grass attributes..."

Said Zhenyong knocked his head:

"Why am I telling you this..."

"You are not trainers who want to challenge the master of the gymnasium."

Zhenyong sits on the steps next to the Pokémon sculpture:

"Next, I plan to go to Jiayuan City to continue my journey as a Pokémon trainer."

"I don't know, what kind of battle will the Jiayuan gymnasium encounter?"

"...Also, do you two want to travel with me?"

Zhenyong finally said.

Riolu frowned:

"Our answer will not change."

"Humans, if it is not necessary, we don't want to have too much contact."

Zhenyong was also decisive and straightforward, he stood up and patted the dust on his body:

"All right!"

"However, this is the second time I have invited you."

"Next time, it's not just about talking."

Zhenyong left again.

He walked out of EMI City just like that, and it seemed that he was really moving towards his goal - Jiayuan City.

Riolu shook his head, what a difficult guy.

The sound of gurgling came from the ear.

The strong chicken smiled awkwardly:
"I'm hungry, there's nothing I can do about it..."

Riolu also hasn't eaten for a long time.

One last look at the tall and magnificent sculpture of ancient Pokémon.

Riolu and Strong Chicken plunged into the EMI Forest not far away.

There are many grass-type, insect-type, and bird-type Pokémon in the forest, but there are only a few fruit trees.

The two Pokémon searched around for a long time, but found nothing.

Reluctantly, he had no choice but to sit aside on the rotting tree trunk that collapsed on the ground, and take a short break to catch his breath.

"I'm so hungry..."

"Riolu... how long have we not eaten!"

The strong chicken lay on its back on the tree trunk and looked up at the sky as if its bones had been pumped out.

It's a pity that the dense branches and leaves in the depths of the forest block the sunlight in the sky.

"I don't know... Probably, it's been nearly three days."

It seems that since leaving Heijin City, Lizhuang Chicken and Riolu haven't had a decent meal.

"No wonder there are many Pokémon willing to be controlled by humans..."

"It turns out that it is so difficult to find stutterers in the wild."

Riolu is not a purebred Pokémon, he has a human spirit in his body, although his understanding and wisdom have been greatly improved.

But the pure wildness, foraging, and survival skills have been squeezed to the lowest point.

As for the strong chicken, he was raised in the courtyard by humans since he was a child. Even if he wants to restore his wildness, it will not happen overnight.

"Do you eat?"

Suddenly, two berries appeared in front of the two Pokémon lying on their backs on the tree trunk.

And these two tree fruits were tightly grasped by two human hands.

The two Pokémon turned over in a jerk, and when they looked closely, they were an acquaintance again!
In other words, it is another human being whom I have met before.

The person who handed out the two berries was the trainer named Xiaori who challenged Piaotai in the Heijin gymnasium not long ago.
