Path of the Elven Master

"Come on, Dr. Metz, let's go to the ruins now."

"Hey, are you going now?"

"Well, I can't wait."

Dr. Metz was a little embarrassed and said, "It doesn't matter to me, and to be honest, I'm also very interested, but what should I do with these people?"

"Please, Miss Joy, just hand it over to the police." Ding Zhi said casually, "These people are so stupid, so stupid that people are helpless."

"Kid, don't be too proud of what happened this time. Our Fire Rock Team won't let it go." The captain was still so stubborn even when his death was imminent.

Ding Zhi didn't bother to pay attention to the howling of the defeated dog. He knew what these guys were thinking was that after catching Groudon, he thought his organization was invincible.

It's a pity that these idiots don't know at all. Neither Kyogre nor Groudon is a fuel-efficient lamp. The star cluster can't even control a Mewtwo. How can these two third-rate organizations have the ability to capture the first-level divine beast? .

The first-level beasts all have the ability to destroy an area. It seems that they act irrationally. In fact, it is not because they are not good-minded, but because there is no need.

Anyway, Ding Zhi didn't believe that Groudon and Kyogre would be caught, but he didn't doubt the authenticity of this matter. There must be some inside story.

After settling the matter with the Fire Rock Team, Ding Zhi and the others, led by Dr. Metz, came to the ancient ruins located on the top of the mountain.

This ruins was originally a temple, but now it has been damaged. There are ruins everywhere, and only one stone chamber has been preserved. The stone door at the entrance has a unique shape, and you can tell at a glance what secrets are hidden inside.

"Ding Zhi, I'll open it now."

"Well, please, Dr. Metz."

Dr. Metz once excavated a stone slab and translated it. According to the method recorded above, he put four gems into the four holes on the surface of the stone door in sequence.

"Boom"

The ground suddenly trembled, and the gems on the door shone brightly. Then the stone door began to move backward, revealing a dark passage.

Xiaoxiao carefully looked inside and said uneasily, "Ding Zhi, do you really want to go in? I feel something is wrong."

Although Song Lina didn't say anything, she had the same thought in her heart, fearing that there would be dangerous things like mechanisms inside.

"Don't worry, I checked it with a waveguide, and there's nothing there."

With that said, Ding Zhi took out the flashlight and walked in first, followed closely by Dr. Metz. Song Lina and Xiaoxiao looked at each other and saw that the other party had no intention of backing down, so they had to bite the bullet and follow.

But once inside, the environment suddenly lit up. Those stone walls were made of unknown materials, but they actually emitted a faint light, which was amazing.

The content carved on the stone wall made Dr. Metz's eyes shine even more. There were several types of elves painted on it, such as fossil pterosaurs, ammonite beasts, and sickle helmets. All of these are extinct without exception.

"It's great. This is a mural depicting the life of ancient people and elves. This is a major discovery."

Just when Dr. Metz was excited, Ding Zhi suddenly said, "No, you are completely wrong."

"Ah, what did I do wrong?"

Ding Zhi looked at the text on the mural and explained, "This does not describe the two parties living together, but the coming of age ceremony in this country."

"Coming of Age Rites" Dr. Metz didn't know why, and his mind couldn't wrap his head around how he got involved in this.

"Well." Ding Zhi hesitated for a moment, "Are you sure you want to hear it? This may have some impact on you."

Dr. Metz said without hesitation, "Of course my job is to discover the circumstances of ancient civilizations. Please tell me."

Seeing his insistence, Ding Zhi stopped trying to persuade him and said, "Well, it's actually very simple. The so-called coming-of-age ceremony requires hunting an elf alone, and the more powerful the prey, the more respected it will be."

"What?" Dr. Metz was shocked, "Hunting elves, how is this possible?"

"Why is it impossible? Otherwise, how do you think the elves became extinct?" Ding Zhi asked back.

Dr. Metz argued, "The cause of the extinction of these elves is still unknown, and academic circles generally believe that it was climatic factors."

"Unfortunately not." Ding Zhi shook his head, "In the era before the advent of the Poké Ball, those ferocious elves posed a great threat to humans. Even if they spent great efforts to tame them, they would most likely be sent to the battlefield and naturally become extinct over time. "

Dr. Metz opened his mouth. He wanted to refute, but found that he could not say a word, as if a fish bone was stuck in his throat.

He loves ancient civilizations and the ancient elves. He has imagined countless times the scene of harmonious coexistence between the two parties. When he first came into contact with this shocking fact, it was inevitable to lose his temper.

However, this cannot be blamed on Dr. Metz's naivety. The alliance was established with the help of mythical beasts and advocated the peaceful coexistence of humans and elves. Naturally, such a history that violates harmony cannot be made public to the world.

Ding Zhizhi understood Dr. Metz's mood and did not disturb him. He explored the room by himself and then frowned deeply.

After Song Lina noticed it, she asked, "Ding Zhi, what's wrong with you?"

"Hmm, I found that there is a secret passage here, but I can't seem to get in."

"Secret passage" Xiaoxiao looked around, "Where is it? Is there any mechanism that needs to be triggered to open it?"

"I don't know if there is a mechanism, but the passage is right here." Ding Zhi pointed to the bottom of the stone door.

Rather than saying it is a stone gate, it is more appropriate to say it is a square boulder. Ding Zhi's waveguide can detect a very special structure inside the boulder, but he has no clue what it is.

At this time, Dr. Metz suddenly said, "After hearing what you said, I remembered that there are two ways to open the door mentioned on the stone tablet. Unfortunately, the other one seems to be recorded on another stone tablet."

"Another way"

Ding Zhi remembered that in the documents he translated, words like "light" seemed to be frequently mentioned, perhaps implying a method of opening the mechanism.

With the mentality of treating a dead horse as a live doctor, Ding Zhi turned to look at Pikachu, "You stand in front of the door, and then use the flash technique."

"Pickup"

Although he didn't know what Ding Zhi was doing, Pikachu still did as he was told. It jumped off Ding Zhi's shoulders and faced the front of the boulder. Electricity surged through his body and emitted a dazzling light.

Immediately afterwards, a strange phenomenon actually occurred. The gem on the door suddenly shone, and the white light spread along the gaps in the boulder to the entire room.

Just when everyone was surprised, the boulder moved back a certain distance again, revealing a staircase that was originally blocked at the bottom.

"Come on, let's go in and have a look."

Ding Zhi suppressed the excitement in his heart and took the lead to walk in. The others quickly followed. When they reached the bottom, they found that there was a different cave inside.

"There are actually underground veins in this place." Dr. Metz analyzed. "It smells like salt. It seems that this place must be connected to the sea."

"Ding Zhi, is this the place you want to find?" Song Lina asked.

"Absolutely." Ding Zhi smiled and then closed his eyes.

After a while, there was a "pop" sound, and a big gray fish suddenly jumped out of the water and landed in front of Ding Zhi.

"Ah, this is an ancient elf, an ancient coelacanth." Dr. Metz couldn't hide the surprise on his face.

This kind of elf is extremely rare. There are occasional sighting reports during deep-sea surveys, but no one knows the specific situation. There are only pictures in ancient books.

I didn’t expect to see it with my own eyes this time, it was really eye-opening.

Just as Dr. Metz was about to step forward and take a closer look, Ding Zhi made an unexpected move. He actually put his hand into the mouth of the ancient Kong stickleback.

"Ding Zhi, what are you doing?" Dr. Metz subconsciously wanted to step forward to stop him, but was stopped.

"Don't worry, just watch from there." Ding Zhi said, his entire right arm already inserted into the belly of the ancient air stickleback.

It took a while before Ding Zhi took out something from the belly of the ancient coelacanth. This was exactly the stone slip he was looking for.

"Thank you for your hard work, go back to your home." Ding Zhi touched the head of the ancient coelacanth and then pushed it back into the water.

The ancient coelacanth does not easily appear in front of people, and will try to stay away from other elves when it encounters it. It likes to live alone in the deep sea, which is one of the reasons why it has not become extinct.

Only Ding Zhi, the king of the sea, could make the ancient coelacanth feel close to his heart. He first used a waveguide to confirm the location of the stone slips. When he found something in the belly of the ancient coelacanth, he immediately called it out. .

If it were anyone else, I'm afraid they would never be able to discover this secret in their lifetime, or even imagine it.

Just like Dr. Metz, he is completely dumbfounded now, "Ding Zhi, how do you know that there is this thing in the belly of the ancient coelacanth?"

"I just know." Ding Zhi replied casually, took out a tissue, wiped the stone slip dry, and put it into his pocket.

Seeing that Ding Zhi was unwilling to tell, Dr. Metz stopped forcing him. Everyone has their own secrets, and he still knew this.

"Okay, we've finished visiting the ruins, let's go back to the Elf Center."

After the matter was done, Ding Zhi asked Song Lina and Xiaoxiao to leave, while Dr. Metz stayed to continue research. After the three returned to the Elf Center, they met an unexpected person.

"Hey, isn't that Zhou Can? Why is he here?" Song Lina recognized him at a glance.

"Zhou Can, he was Ding Zhi's opponent in the semifinals of the Baichuan Conference," Xiaoxiao also thought about it.

"Don't worry about him, just think about what to have for dinner. Miss Joy said that in order to repay the favor, we captured the Fire Rock Team and prepared to cook us a big meal herself."

Ding Zhi was not going to pay attention to the second young master of the Yulong family, and just pretended not to see him and walked past him. Unfortunately, the young master didn't seem to want to let him go.

"Hey kid, why don't you say hello when you see me?"

"Who are you?" Ding Zhi turned around with a look of disgust on his face, "Don't talk to me if you have nothing to do, lest others mistakenly think that I know you well."

Zhou Can curled his lips and said dissatisfiedly, "Tsk, you think it's not about work that I want to find you."

"I'm sorry, I don't remember that I have any work dealings with you."

"I'm referring to the Fire Rock Team," Zhou Can said, gritting his teeth. "Every time I meet you, little brat, nothing good happens. You captured those guys from the Fire Rock Team, right?"

Ding Zhi glanced at him and teased, "So what, are there your friends or relatives among those people?"

"You kid, don't interrupt. Do you know how long my people have been following them, just to find out their purpose? Now you've screwed everything up."

"Haha, blame me"

Ding Zhi was a little surprised at first, why the Fire Rock Team was so bold that they even dared to hold the Elf Center hostage. After a long time, it turned out that these investigators were playing a trick to lure the snake out of its hole.

Zhou Can was very angry, but Ding Zhi was happy. He said with a smile, "Who told you not to inform me earlier? If you told me, I would still ruin your good deeds."

Hearing this, Zhou Can's veins popped out on his forehead, and he couldn't help but want to curse. Unfortunately, his skills were not as good as others. He lost to Ding Zhi in the competition, and even the volume of his speech was lowered.

"I'm too lazy to talk nonsense with you." Zhou Can spat, "I'm just here to tell you, don't get involved in this kind of thing in the future, and stay away from those people if you encounter them, otherwise you will be in trouble."

"It's a joke, I'm still afraid of them." Ding Zhi disagreed.

"Yes, yes, you are invincible, of course you are not afraid." Zhou Can echoed a few words without sincerity, and then changed the subject.

"But one thing you have to know is that depending on your situation, it's not the underground organizations that will cause you trouble, but"

Speaking of this, Zhou Can hesitated and looked at Song Lina and Xiaoxiao on the side.

"Okay, just tell me what you have to say, don't be secretive." Ding Zhi naturally understood, but he didn't take it seriously.

"Ahem, you'd better think about it yourself."

"I didn't expect you to be such an ink-stained person."

Ding Zhi was speechless, but he could only follow his instructions and said to the two girls, "Song Lina, Xiaoxiao, you go get something to eat first, I'll be here in a minute."

The two of them responded and left. It wasn't until they were far away that they were sure they couldn't hear, then Zhou Can lowered his voice and spoke slowly.

"The American League is not happy with you, you better be careful."

"So what, they still want to send people to deal with me?"

Ding Zhi had already guessed this when he had a conflict with Bonnie, but he didn't care. No matter what tricks the other party used, he had this confidence.

"I advise you to be more cautious." Zhou Can frowned, "I know what you are thinking. It is just that the Four Heavenly Kings cherish their feathers and cannot lower their bodies to deal with you, and other trainers are not your opponents, so you That’s why you are so confident.”

"Isn't it?" Ding Zhi didn't say anything and just followed his wishes.

Zhou Can nodded, then shook his head, "It's generally true, but you have to know that there are exceptions to everything, and there are also some unique ones among the Four Heavenly Kings."

In fact, what he said was polite. Geniuses have some quirks, and the Four Heavenly Kings, as representatives of top trainers, naturally have many freaks.

Just like Xiba who Ding Zhi once met, she was just shirtless all day long, went out to practice and ate Overlord meals, and would rather pay off her debts by chopping firewood than reveal her identity.

Ding Zhi touched his chin and asked, "According to your opinion, some shameless freak king in America plans to teach me a lesson himself."

"Uh, more or less."

"Isn't that great? I'm waiting for him to come to me." Ding Zhi chuckled, with endless anticipation in his eyes, which made the corners of Zhou Can's mouth twitch.

This kid has the nerve to call other people weird, when he is clearly the weirdest one.

"Okay, I've said it before. It's up to you whether you want to or not. I have to leave first."

"Hey" Ding Zhi was very surprised, "That's all you want to say, nothing else."

Zhou Can rolled his eyes at him and asked, "Otherwise, what else do you think?"

Ding Zhi was silent for a moment, then he hesitated and suddenly said, "Aren't you investigating the Fire Rock Team? If I guessed correctly, they should be looking for an item called the Red Orb."

"What is that red orb?" This was the first time Zhou Can heard this word.

Ding Zhi replied, "It is a prop created by ancient people. Team Fire Rock believes that this thing can be used to control Groudon."

Zhou Can frowned slightly and asked, "Is it true or not, I can control Groudon?"

"I can't."

"You?" Zhou Can couldn't help but get angry, "Can you speak human language? Who can understand this inconsistency?"

"It's your IQ that doesn't understand. You can't blame me." Ding Zhi smiled. Maybe it was because Zhou Can's first impression on him was too bad. Whenever he had the chance, he would unconsciously run against him.

"Okay, don't talk nonsense, just make it clear."

But Zhou Can had no intention of quarreling with Ding Zhi. He had been fighting with the two major underground organizations in America for many years, and he knew everything about them. But now he had heard unheard news, so how could he not be anxious.

Ding Zhi did not make any fuss with him and replied, "In other words, someone made the Fire Rock Team mistakenly believe that the red orb can control Groudon, but it actually cannot."

Zhou Can hurriedly asked, "Who is that person?"

"I didn't say it was a human being." Ding Zhi shook his head, "And I don't dare to vouch for the specifics. These are all my guesses based on the existing information. I will not be responsible if they are wrong."

"Then what you said is all nonsense."

"What did you say"

Seeing Zhou Can's kindness first, Ding Zhi thought of reciprocating the favor. Unexpectedly, this guy actually bit Lu Dongbin. He had ignored him if he had known better.

"Whatever, I don't want to care about you." Ding Zhi clicked his tongue and turned around to leave.

First it was Team Huoyan, and then it was Zhou Can. It was really a bad day today.

Zhou Can watched Ding Zhi leave and sighed secretly. He actually wanted to say thank you, but he couldn't say the words.

Just say thank you to that annoying brat and you might as well die.

However, he has already taken Ding Zhi's words to heart. Whether they are true or false, they are worthy of attention, not to mention

Although he didn't want to admit it, Zhou Can also understood that Ding Zhi knew far more about mythical beasts than anyone else, at least more reliable than the consultants hired by the alliance.

After leaving Guchen Town, Ding Zhi and his party continued to move towards Kanaz City. However, before they had walked a few steps, Xiaoxiao, who was at the back of the team, screamed.

"Hey, wait for me."

Ding Zhi was originally looking at the stone slips, but when he heard this, he turned around and said, "What's wrong?"

"What else can you do?" Song Lina put her hands on her waist and said angrily, "Xiaoxiao, no

Did you just take a rest? "

"But I'm really tired."

After saying that, Xiaoxiao sat directly on the ground.

"What? It's really useless. Don't just eat. You should also exercise more."

Song Lina was quite confident in saying this. When she was traveling with Ding Zhi, she was seldom delayed by the rush. This was mainly due to the riding practice she had done since she was a child.

Xiaoxiao glared at Song Lina with a bulging face, then looked at Ding Zhi, turning on the coquettish mode, "Ding Zhi, please carry me on your back for a while."

Before Ding Zhi could say anything, Song Lina immediately scolded him, "What are you talking about? He's not a three-year-old child, but he still has to be carried on his back."

"Humph, I didn't ask you to carry me." Xiaoxiao turned her head away from Song Lina, "What's more, it's not like Ding Zhi has never carried me."

"What time did this happen?"

"Does it have anything to do with you?"

"Of course it's as heavy as you. What if Ding Zhi is crushed?"

"what"

Again.

Ding Zhi covered his face and felt a headache. The two girls quarreled almost every day. Thanks to them, Ding Zhi felt that his temper was getting worse and worse.

"Okay, shut up. There is an elf center nearby. Xiaoxiao just hold on and rest when we get there." Ding Zhi helplessly acted as the peacemaker.

Xiaoxiao suddenly became energetic. She stood up and said with a smile, "Yes, I will listen to you."

"What, just pretend to be a good baby in front of Ding Zhi." Song Lina muttered, deliberately speaking at a volume that Xiaoxiao could hear.

However, Xiaoxiao's attention was suddenly attracted by another thing. She quickly walked to a tree, pointed at the trunk and shouted, "Ding Zhi, look, there is something strange here."

Ding Zhi looked over curiously and found a protrusion on the tree trunk. He walked over and pulled it out and saw that it was a conical iron object with some mesh-like hemp rope tied to the end.

"This is it." Ding Zhi's eyes suddenly became sharp. "It is part of the capture net. It seems that there are poachers operating around here."

After that, Ding Zhi closed his eyes, and the invisible waveguide power spread to the entire forest, and his brain was working rapidly, looking for the target.

Ding Zhi soon opened his eyes, with a hint of surprise inside.

"Why are they here too?"

In the forest not far away, there was a mess everywhere, and the ground was also bumpy. It was obvious that a fierce battle had taken place.

At this time, there were two groups of people confronting each other. One of them was the duo from the Star Cluster. They were covered in injuries, as if they would fall over if the wind blew, but they gritted their teeth and stood up straight, with unprecedented burning eyes. Fighting spirit and determination.

Standing opposite them was a green-haired man. He looked at the duo with disdain. There was a Banjira next to him. He was obviously the one who injured the duo.

"Ha, you guys are overestimating your abilities." The green-haired man sneered, "If you were more sensible, you wouldn't have suffered so much. Speaking of which, you, the Star Cluster, are nothing more than that."

"What did you say, bastard?"

Wu Tiancheng was furious, and Chen Xing and Wu Tiancheng also had angry faces. They didn't care about themselves, but Zhongxing Tuan was a name that should never be insulted.

"Am I wrong? Who would engage in such a dark organization these days? It's ridiculous."

The green-haired man's name is Liang, and he is a notorious elf hunter. However, like most poachers, this is just a part-time job. They often work for a large group and can eat both black and white.

As long as necessary, they can transform into rich people's bodyguards, and even entrust them to track down wanted criminals, all just for money.

"By the way, although your strength is not good, I still admire you. How about you, do you want to be my subordinate?"

Surprisingly, Zhao Liang suddenly became interested in recruiting the duo.

"To tell you the truth, with my strength, the superiors will give me a code name soon. Then follow me, I guarantee you."

"Don't think we won't betray the stars," Wu Tiancheng interrupted him loudly. Wu Tiancheng and Chen Xing also nodded.

"Haha, whatever." Zhao Liang was originally just on a whim, and he didn't feel sorry for being rejected. "In that case, I will beat you up first, and then take away your elves."

Just when Zhao Liang was about to take action, a voice sounded from behind him.

"Excuse me, let me ask, are you guys having internal strife due to uneven distribution of the spoils?"

Looking at the familiar face, the duo opened their mouths in surprise. They never thought that Ding Zhi would appear here, and a burst of ecstasy followed.

"Master Ding Zhi, please help us." Wu Tiancheng and the other three rushed over and hugged Ding Zhi's thigh tightly.

Usually, unless Ditian gives a mission, the duo would go as far as they can to see Ding Zhi, but today, for the first time, they found that they were so happy to see Ding Zhi.

Even that indifferent face has become cute

"What are you doing? Let go." Ding Zhi kicked the three of them away with a look of disgust on his face, "If you have something to say, talk to me. Don't touch anyone. Tell me honestly. Are you rebelling?"

"How is it possible? This guy looks like he has a bad face at first glance. How could we join in with him?" Chen Xing quickly complained.

Ding Zhi looked at him speechlessly, "You may have forgotten that you are from the Star Cluster."

"Hey, there is a difference between bad guys and bad guys," Wu Tiancheng said with a playful smile, "We are just a little bad guys, but he is a big bad guy who is bad to the core."

"Yes, yes, that guy is the notorious Hunter Liang. His reputation has spread all over the Americas." Wu Tiancheng also supported him.

The duo tried their best to slander Zhao Liang with each other, saying whatever was unpleasant to them. Before Ding Zhi could express anything, Zhao Liang couldn't bear it anymore.

"Here you guys, you are talking nonsense, haven't you suffered enough?"

"Eat hardship"

Hearing this, Wu Tiancheng, Chen Xing and Wu Tiancheng looked at me and I looked at you, and they all laughed so hard that they almost shed tears.

Wu Tiancheng and Chen Xing stood on both sides of Ding Zhi and introduced respectfully, "You idiot, do you know who this gentleman is?"

"Oh" Zhao Liang crossed his arms and said disapprovingly, "I would like to hear who this brat is that gives you such confidence."

Wu Tiancheng cleared his throat, "Ahem, you have to listen carefully, this is the famous Lord Ding Zhi."

These guys were so serious, which made Ding Zhi extremely embarrassed. He was not a famous person, so even if he announced his name, he would only attract ridicule, which was almost embarrassing.

However, the other party's reaction was beyond expectations.

"What he is is wisdom"

Zhao Liang's face changed instantly. He looked at Ding Zhi hurriedly, and then his eyes showed fear, and he said in a trembling voice, "That's right, it's this face. You are the devil from Baichuan Mountain."

Ding Zhi was stunned for a few seconds and asked, "What did you call me?"

"The devil of Baichuan Mountain," Zhao Liang repeated loudly, "You are a murderer at a young age, and even that guy was imprisoned because of you. The reward amount within the group has always been high, but no one dared to take the order. "

"Don't slander anyone who kills people like crazy," Ding Zhi said angrily.

"Isn't that right? Those hunters who entered Baichuan Mountain have never come back alive. The most suspect among them is that your group once organized ten powerful trainers to go into the mountain to hunt you down. In the end, you ended up just like the others before. Not even the body was found.”

As Zhao Liang spoke, his body trembled involuntarily. Those ten people were all trainers with code names, and they were at least as strong as the championship champions. However, these ten people joined hands, but they couldn't even defeat a kid.

"Hey, you sent people to hunt me down." Ding Zhi was a little surprised. This was the first time he heard about this.

"You don't know" Zhao Liang was also surprised.

"I don't know." Ding Zhi shook his head honestly.

“I didn’t know and I killed them.”

"It's a joke." Ding Zhi sneered, "I kill when I'm in a good mood, and I kill when I'm in a bad mood. As long as someone with evil intentions dares to come to my territory, I won't be able to get out alive."

After saying that, he added, "But one thing you can rest assured is that I am a pretty good person. I am in charge of killing and burying you. I will never let you die in the wilderness."

After hearing this, Zhao Liang didn't know what expression to put on. Then he suddenly realized something, and big beads of sweat began to fall from his forehead.

"Well, I have no grievances with you." Zhao Liang unconsciously used honorifics, "And your friend and I are actually a misunderstanding. I can make compensation, so please just ask."

The duo originally wanted to jump out and refute, but as soon as they heard the word "compensation", their eyes immediately lit up, and they suddenly fell into the eyes of money.

But Ding Zhi was very dissatisfied and opened his mouth to scold, "You are either blind. Who is friends with these guys? As for you and me, we really have no grievances."

"Hey, isn't that enough? The compensation I give will definitely satisfy you."

"But the problem is, your colleagues and I have no grievances."

"Well, I'm not familiar with them." Zhao Liang felt bad and said in a tougher tone, "And to tell you the truth, my brother is also a person, codenamed Hunter A."

"Hunter A, what about you? What's your codename?" Ding Zhi became a little interested.

"I don't have a code name yet, but I will have one soon. It should be g."

Zhao Liang paused and continued, "Actually, there is no need to settle things between us. I will be able to talk to you in the group in the future. Maybe I can help you some time."

Ding Zhi didn't answer, just asked "finished"

Looking at those indifferent eyes, Zhao Liang suddenly understood something, and then suddenly shouted "Banjila, break"

However, before Zhao Liang could finish his words, a bolt of golden lightning struck over and grazed his face, followed by a loud "boom".

Zhao Liang opened his mouth slightly, turned his head slowly, and looked at Bangila who fell to the ground in disbelief.

"Why did he fall down in just one blow? He was too weak." Ding Zhi curled his lips, feeling a little bored.

This Bangira might have been consumed by the duo before, and it had just evolved so recently that it was eliminated before it had time to show its combat effectiveness.

"Don't, don't come over." Looking at Ding Zhi walking slowly, Zhao Liang couldn't help but take a step back, "I'm warning you, if you dare to touch me, my brother will never do it."

In Zhao Liang's horrified eyes, a water ball appeared out of thin air and swallowed his head completely.

Ding Zhi watched quietly as Zhao Liang slowly suffocated in the water, and his struggles became smaller and smaller until he could no longer move.

During this process, the duo didn't even dare to breathe, especially after coming into contact with Ding Zhi's accustomed gaze, a biting chill suddenly rose up behind their backs.

Hey, Xiao Guitou seems to be in a bad mood.

Nonsense, I want you to say it.

What to do now?

The two of them communicated with each other with their eyes. They were so uncomfortable that they almost couldn't breathe. They didn't dare to speak, let alone leave without authorization.

Fortunately, Ding Zhi was the first to break the silence at this time.

"I told you, why are you still standing there?"

"what"

Seeing their stupid looks, Ding Zhi said angrily, "I forgot what I said. I don't care about killing or burying them. Why don't you go dig a hole soon?"

"Oh oh oh"

The duo hurriedly agreed, took out a few shovels from nowhere, found a relatively flat place, and began to dig a hole quickly.

Ding Zhi watched for a while and nodded secretly in his mind. These three guys had no other skills, but they were really good at digging holes. I guess Di Tian took a fancy to this and insisted on keeping them in the Star Cluster. .

Wait, stars

"Hey, you guys."

"exist"

When Ding Zhi called them, the duo immediately put down what they were doing and stood up straight, their faces wrinkled in nervousness.

"Why are you here?" Ding Zhi said with strange eyes, "This is America. Has the business of the Star Cluster expanded? Or are you here to travel?"

""

The duo looked at each other, Wu Tiancheng patted Wu Tiancheng, and Wu Tiancheng patted Chen Xing. Chen Xing tried to pat Wu Tiancheng but was glared at instead.

In desperation, Chen Xing, who was at the bottom of the food chain, had no choice but to stand up and said with a smile, "Hey, hey, it's actually nothing, it's just that the boss sent us to America to do a small thing."

"What's up"

"Well, I can't say the specifics, but it seems to have something to do with you."

"I" Ding Zhi was stunned and said immediately, "I'm warning you, whatever you want to do has nothing to do with me, but you are not allowed to have anything to do with me."

"Don't worry, I won't cause you any trouble." Chen Xing quickly assured.

Ding Zhi snorted and stared at a few people closely, making their scalp numb from looking at them, for fear of being offended by accident.

Seeing their cowardice, Ding Zhi suddenly lost interest and waved his hand to tell them to get lost, "Forget it, keep digging."

The duo felt as if they had received an amnesty and went to work quickly.

While they were digging the hole, Ding Zhi released all the elves on Zhao Liang and the captured elves. The only captured elves were Arbo snakes and gas bombs.

These two elves are neither strong nor rare, so I really don’t know why Zhao Liang spent time catching them.

After disposing of the body, Ding Zhi came to the nearby Elf Center and prepared to meet up with Song Lina and Xiaoxiao. He hoped that while he was away, the two girls could quarrel enough so that he could be quiet.

Unfortunately, Ding Zhi didn't know that Song Lina and Xiaoxiao usually got along well with each other, and they could only quarrel when he was present.

After resting for a night at the Elf Center, the three of them continued towards Karnaz City.

Walking on the path in the forest, you are greeted by the fresh air. The warm breeze seems to blow away all the unpleasant things. The only drawback is that

They don't know where this is.

Song Lina complained to Ding Zhi, "It's all Xiaoxiao's fault. We are lost now."

Xiaoxiao was naturally dissatisfied and immediately retorted, "Why do you say it was me? If Song Lina hadn't led the way, how could we have gotten lost."

"I led the way randomly." Song Lina almost thought she heard wrongly. "I said that road should go to the right. You deliberately wanted to go against me, but you chose to go to the left."

"Tch, can you guarantee that we won't get lost if we go to the right?"

"Of course I can"

The two refused to give in to each other, regardless of whether it was reasonable or not, they would argue first and then talk about it. Anyway, there is no need to make sense in a quarrel, especially for girls.

Ding Zhi looked at Song Lina, then at Xiaoxiao, and finally looked down at the stone slip in his hand. He had figured it out now. The more he paid attention to them, the more energetic these two guys became.

Ignoring it is the best option.

Unfortunately, Ding Zhi didn't want to pay attention to him, but Song Lina and Xiaoxiao didn't want to let him go.

"Ding Zhi, you come to judge, whose fault is it?"

"Who is afraid of whom? Ding Zhi must be on my side."

Facing the expectant gazes of the two girls, Ding Zhiquan pretended not to see them and said bluntly, "Follow me. I'll use the waveguide to slowly find a way out."

"Hmph, eccentric."

Seeing that Ding Zhi didn't help them, Song Lina and Xiaoxiao were a little dissatisfied. After glaring at each other, no one paid attention to the other.

"Oh Pika Pika, they have a really good relationship," Pikachu started to make sarcastic remarks.

"You must be blind."

Just when Ding Zhi was about to say something, a group of green figures suddenly passed through the woods. If he looked carefully, he saw that they were actually a group of wood geckos.

"Wow, there are so many Mu Shou Palaces." Xiaoxiao said excitedly. She had seen Mu Shou Palaces before, but this was the first time she saw so many of them together.

Song Lina guessed, "Maybe this is the forest of Mu Shou Palace."

"By the way, Xiaoxiao." Ding Zhi suddenly suggested, "You only have one elf now. Do you want to tame a wooden gecko? I just took a look. The qualifications of these wooden geckos are very good."

"Hey, me?"

Xiaoxiao pointed at herself with some surprise. When Ding Zhi nodded, she asked curiously, "I don't care, but Ding Zhi, don't you want to subdue him?"

Ding Zhi smiled and replied, "When I conquer elves now, I usually only rely on fate."

Recalling the time when I was trying to conquer the giant

Ding Zhi made a special trip to Sinnoh to see the golden monster. To this day, it is impossible for this kind of thing to happen again.

The main reason is that his team has basically been formed. There is no need to go out of his way to conquer new elves. It is better to spend more time on his current partners.

The three of them discussed it and decided to go over and take a look first, and then discuss the matter of subjugation later. Following the traces of Mu Shou Palace for a distance, they came to the foot of a towering tree.

"Wow, what a big tree." Looking at the big tree in front of her, Xiaoxiao couldn't help but sigh, "How old is it to be able to grow so big?"

Song Lina touched the bare tree trunk and said with some regret, "But it seems to have dried up."

"We climbed up to see

"Swish"

Before he finished speaking, a branch suddenly hit the ground in front of Ding Zhi. When he raised his head, he saw that it was a wooden gecko sitting on the branch. Its big bright yellow eyes were staring at Ding Zhi and the three of them, as if It's a warning to them to stay away.

"Xiaoxiao, let's just take it. This kid is not bad." Ding Zhi used the system to observe and found that the talent and potential of this wooden gecko exceeded that of the Yu Sanjia in the alliance.

This situation is not uncommon. The Yusanjia of the alliance does not mean that they have the best qualifications, but they have been trained in advance and are the most suitable for new trainers.

"But." Xiaoxiao looked at Mu Shou Gong and said hesitantly, "It seems to be very powerful. I don't know if the Fire Chicken can beat it."

"Try it. As a trainer, you have to have confidence in your elf."

In fact, there is something that Ding Zhi didn't say. The Fire Chicken is of the fire type, and the Wood Guard is of the grass type. The levels of both sides are similar. The fire type restrains the grass type, and the other side is still wild.

It would be unreasonable to lose.

"Ok."

Xiaoxiao nodded, she didn't mind subduing her, but since Ding Zhi said so, she might as well give it a try.

"Mu Shou Gong." Xiaoxiao took a deep breath and shouted to the top, "I want to conquer you, please come down and have a battle with me."

“Just right”

This wooden gecko showed no fear. It held the branch in its mouth, jumped back and forth on the tree, and soon came to Xiaoxiao.

Xiaoxiao threw the elf ball and shouted, "Please, Fire Chicken, start attacking."

However, after waiting for a while, the turkey chicken stood still.

"What's wrong? Come on, Fire Chicken." Xiaoxiao waved her hand to urge Fire Chicken to attack quickly.

"Chamo."

Huo Zhiji turned his head with an aggrieved look, which made Xiaoxiao feel very strange, but Ding Zhi and Song Lina beside him could hardly stand it any longer.

Song Lina said helplessly, "Let me tell you, Xiaoxiao, if you don't tell me what special moves to use, how will Huo Zhiji act?"

"Eh, ah, I, I was just too nervous. I forgot all of a sudden." Xiaoxiao blushed and turned her head quickly, too embarrassed to look at Ding Zhi.

This little delay was enough for Mu Shou Gong to go back and forth a few times, but this Mu Shou Gong was quite arrogant and just stayed where he was, looking at Xiaoxiao with a more or less contemptuous look. The meaning is in it.

"That, Huo Zhiji, use sparks." Xiaoxiao finally called out the name of the trick this time.

After receiving the order, the Fire Chicken immediately sprayed out small sparks, but Mu Shou Palace dodged them all and didn't even scratch the edge.

“It’s so fast”

Xiaoxiao didn't expect that the Mu Shou Gong's reaction and speed would be so fast. The Fire Chicken couldn't compare. Before she could think of a countermeasure, Mu Shou Gong suddenly used a lightning flash and hit the Fire Chicken. .

"Chamo"

"Are you okay, Fire Chicken?"

The fire chicken screamed and was knocked out, but after hearing Xiaoxiao's worried cry, it immediately got up again. It seemed to be nothing serious.

"That's great." Xiaoxiao felt relieved for the time being, "If that's the case, let's switch to a close attack. Fire Chicken, use pecking."

"Chamo"

The fire chicken screamed and rushed to the opposite side menacingly, but Mu Shou Gong did not move, only glanced briefly, his eyes full of disdain.

Seeing Mu Shou Gong's attitude, the Fire Chicken immediately became angry and wanted to peck a hole in the other person's body, and the speed also increased unconsciously.

However, the moment Huo Jie rushed to Mu Shou Gong, Mu Shou Gong suddenly jumped up, then turned around, and whipped out the cattail leaf-like tail, hitting Huo Jia Ji in the head.

"Chamo"

Huo Jie felt a pain in his head, and then he rolled his eyes and fainted. Seeing this, Xiaoxiao rushed up and hugged it in her arms.

Xiaoxiao looked at Huo Zhiji distressedly and said comfortingly, "Huo Zhiji, are you okay? Does the wound hurt?"

Ding Zhi took a closer look and was speechless on the spot. The so-called wound was just a little red. Not to mention the elves, even humans would be fine.

This time, instead of laughing at her, Song Lina comforted her and said, "Xiaoxiao, don't worry too much. The elf has a strong constitution and will wake up after a rest."

"That's it, that's good." Xiaoxiao breathed a sigh of relief.

Well, I really didn’t expect to lose.

To be honest, Ding Zhi was a little surprised by this result. Xiaoxiao's family ran a gym, and her father was a candidate for the king, so she shouldn't be on the same level as a pure novice.

More importantly, Ding Zhi did not feel the desire for victory from Xiaoxiao. I am afraid that she, like Song Lina, was more concerned about the safety of the elves than victory.

Ding Zhi didn't want to comment on other people's thoughts, but from the current point of view, Xiaoxiao was obviously not suitable to be a trainer, because he was afraid that speaking directly would hurt her heart.

“Just right”

After defeating the Fire Chicken, Mu Shou Gong waved his hands in boredom when no one came back to challenge him, but he ran back soon, dragging a large leaf behind him, filled with water.

Mu Shou Gong carefully poured water to the roots of the tree, and then covered it with leaves to retain moisture.

"Is it taking care of this tree?" Song Lina asked.

"Well, it should be." Ding Zhi nodded, "But it's useless. This tree has lived too long, and it has reached its limit."

“Just right”

Hearing this, Mu Shugong, who was working, suddenly raised his head and glared at Ding Zhi with his big eyes. Ding Zhi did not panic and looked directly at him.

After looking at each other for a while, Mu Shou Gong probably felt that there was no point in doing so. He snorted, turned around and continued to water the big tree.

"Ding Zhi, is there any way you can help it?"

It seemed that Mu Shougong's persistence moved Xiaoxiao, and she couldn't help but plead for him. Although Song Lina on the side did not speak, there was also a hint of pleading in her expression.

"Of course I can help. Although this tree is very old, it is not difficult for me to extend its life for another ten years."

Before Xiaoxiao and Song Lina were happy, they heard Ding Zhi continue to say, "But the problem is that now it feels that it has lived enough. It is just a tree. I can force it to continue living, but do you think this is really true?" Okay"

Of course, Ding Zhi was not just talking nonsense. He could sense the waveguides of all things. The giant tree in front of him was about to lose its vitality, but he was holding on for a breath. It was obvious that he had something on his mind.

“Cha-cha-cha-cha”

Mu Shougong was very angry and thought Ding Zhi was completely nonsense, but Ding Zhi was not in a hurry and just waved to it.

"If you don't believe it, I can prove it to you." Ding Zhi said.

Originally Mu Shou Gong didn't want to pay attention to it, but as an elf, it could vaguely feel that the human in front of it was very special. After hesitating for a while, it slowly walked to Ding Zhi.

"Don't resist, I won't hurt you."

As he spoke, Ding Zhi put one hand on the big tree and stretched the other hand towards Mu Shou Gong's forehead. He planned to temporarily connect the two spirits together through his own waveguide.

“Just right”

Being touched by a stranger for the first time, Mu Shou Gong subconsciously wanted to resist, but then, his body froze in place, and tears continued to flow from his eyes.

At this time, a beautiful scene unfolded in Mu Shou Palace's mind. On the barren land, a seed broke out of its shell. When the wind blew, it was buried by fine soil.

When spring comes, the earth suddenly becomes active. It lies in the dark soil, drinks the morning dew, soaks in the sunshine, and slowly grows.

In this way, year after year, spring passes and autumn comes, the former seedlings grow into big trees, and the tender seeds are sown, and the forest follows.

Ding Zhi looked at Mu Shou Gong and said softly, "This is the life of this tree. The entire forest is its child, which represents its new life. It has no regrets long ago."

"The only one I can't worry about is you."

Mu Shougong looked at Ding Zhi blankly, not understanding what this meant.

"Clap"

At this time, there was a sudden violent cracking sound nearby. When I turned around, I saw that cracks appeared at the bottom of the big tree and spread rapidly upward.

“Just right”

Mu Shou Gong screamed. It wanted to help, but it didn't know where to start. It could only watch as the dry giant tree turned into two halves and fell to the ground.

"Don't be sad." Ding Zhi patted Mu Shou Gong on the shoulder, "For this tree, you are its youngest child and have never been able to live independently without it. Now it has told you its experience. You must be able to gain something from it.”

"just"

Mu Shou Gong stood there blankly, seemingly lost in thought. After a while, it raised its head, stepped forward, picked up a seed, and buried it in the ground.

This is the only thing left by the big tree as a thank you to Mu Shou Gong.

"Okay, let's go."

Seeing that Mu Shou Gong had understood, Ding Zhi did not stay any longer and greeted Song Lina and Xiaoxiao to set off again.

“Just right”

At this moment, Mu Shou Gong rushed over. It jumped high, flicked its tail, and hit Pikachu on Ding Zhi's shoulder hard.

However, Pikachu's reaction was so fast. Before the other party could get close, a bolt of lightning struck him, directly shocking Mu Shou Gong.

"Hey, what are you doing?" Xiaoxiao was shocked and couldn't figure out why Mu Shougong would sneak attack.

Song Lina was thoughtful and guessed, "Maybe she wants to travel with Ding Zhi. This kind of thing has happened before."

"Then why don't you just say it?"

"Because" Song Lina glanced at someone slightly, "because she is a tsundere."

Ding Zhi on the other side naturally did not hear the conversation between the two girls. His attention was now completely focused on Mu Shou Gong.

"Hey, are you okay?"

Ding Zhi hurriedly ran to Mu Shou Gong, took out some blue tangerine fruits from his bag and put them into its mouth. The other party soon woke up and turned around.

"Pickup."

Pikachu breathed a sigh of relief when he saw this, but Mu Shugong lowered his head, looking very frustrated.

Mu Shougong really wanted to travel with Ding Zhi, but he didn't want to be conquered so easily. Instead, he wanted to defeat him in an upright manner through a battle first.

But it didn't expect that the strength gap between the two sides was so huge, that the humble electric mouse actually defeated itself with one blow.

"How about it, Mu Shou Gong, do you want to become as strong as Pikachu?" Ding Zhi felt a little funny looking at this awkward Mu Shou Gong, but he still gave it a step down.

Mu Shou Palace crossed his arms and pretended to hesitate for a while, then nodded reluctantly and reached out to touch the switch of the elf ball, which turned into a red light and sucked it in.

The elf ball struggled a little in Ding Zhi's hands and then stopped moving. Mu Shou Gong was successfully subdued.

After leaving Mu Shou Gong Forest, the following days were spent on the road and training. Mu Shou Gong was naturally fast, so Ding Zhi decided to develop in this area. The focus of training was all on speed, and then he would think about it later. Physical attack and special attack.

As for defense, it can only be sacrificed. After all, Mu Shou Gong is an elf who is good at fast attacks. If he is cultivated into a snake oil, it will only destroy it.

A few days later, the three of them arrived at the outskirts of Kanaz City. At this time, there was not much time left before the opening of the gorgeous contest. If they were a little later, they might miss it.

"That should be the place where the gorgeous contest is held."

Song Lina pointed to a large building in front, with a large banner hanging on it that said "okeo", which means Elf Gorgeous Contest.

Continuing to walk forward, there are many people training elves around, but they are not practicing before the battle, but more like performing a show.

“Are they all coordinators?”

Xiaoxiao looked at these people curiously, and the gorgeous picture created by the coordination of the coordinator and the elves deeply attracted her heart.

Xiaoxiao was already a little bit lost before she even saw the official gorgeous competition.

Seeing her like this, Song Lina asked with a smile, "How about it, Xiaoxiao, since you like it so much, do you want to try to sign up?"

Not to mention, Xiaoxiao was originally a little moved, but when Song Lina suggested it, she suddenly became wary.

"I plan to take a look first, but you should sign up yourself." Xiaoxiao decided to adopt a conservative strategy.

"That's it."

Song Lina felt a little pity, but she didn't care too much. Xiaoxiao was just a hot chick now, and there was no sense of achievement in defeating her, let alone impressing Ding Zhi.

However, when she thought of going to the glamor contest alone, Song Lina suddenly felt a little bit frightened. It would be best if someone could accompany her.

After much deliberation, Song Lina could only target Ding Zhi. In fact, she had no other choice.

"Ding Zhi, do you want to join me?"

"No." Ding Zhi flatly refused, "How can such a sissy competition be suitable for me? Besides, I don't have the right elf to participate."

"Ding Zhi, please keep your voice down."

Song Lina was so frightened that she quickly covered Ding Zhi's mouth, then looked around guiltily, and was slightly relieved when she saw that no one was paying attention.

"You should pay more attention. The people here are coordinators. It would be bad if they heard." Song Lina couldn't help complaining.

Ding Zhi said disapprovingly, "I heard it when I heard it. I didn't say it wrong."

Compared with traditional battles, the victory or defeat of the gorgeous competition does not depend on hard power, but on the application of unique skills. Therefore, the level of participating elves is generally not high, and having a quasi-king is considered unbelievable.

Because of this, Ding Zhi has no interest in the glamor contest from the bottom of his heart. As for why he is called a sissy, that is due to some people in the original work.

"Forget it, don't talk about it." Song Lina looked like she had a headache. "If you really don't want to go, then I will sign up alone."

Ding Zhi nodded, "Well, this kind of competition is more suitable for girls. It's always a bit weird for boys to participate."

Just as the three of them were about to enter the Karnaz Hall, they heard a voice not far away.

"That young man over there, I can't pretend I didn't hear what you said."

Andy walked down the street humming a tune. As a gym trainer, he had a master to help take care of the gym. As a grand master of the Grand Competition, his usual affairs were not busy.

Therefore, whenever he has free time, Andy will travel around the Americas and visit the gorgeous competitions held in various cities.

Of course, dressing up is a must, those overly enthusiastic fans can be overwhelming, and most importantly, your hair must not be messed up.

"Oh my, my, looking at these children always reminds me of my old days."

Looking at the young coordinators who were practicing hard around him, Andy couldn't help but sigh. Although their performances were still immature, they were full of heart and sincerity.

As long as these children are here, the gorgeous contest will definitely get better and better.

Andy is looking forward to this bright future with all his heart. He is a powerful trainer, but he also loves the gorgeous competition. He usually considers himself a coordinator.

The reason is that Andy feels that only by standing on the stage of the gorgeous competition can he better reflect the charm of himself and the elves. Compared with winning, showing his own beauty is the most important thing.

Just when Andy was in a good mood, Ding Zhi's speech fell into his ears word for word. How could he bear this?

"Who are you"

Ding Zhi looked at the green-haired man who appeared out of nowhere in front of him and couldn't help but frown. This guy's clothes were a bit too unique. He was wearing a green and white top, purple trousers, and a pair of sunglasses. Bao’s temperament is simply exposed.

"You don't need to care who I am, you just need to know that I am a coordinator who loves gorgeous contests."

"Oh."
