The pinnacle of the age of elves

The warm sunshine shines across the horizon onto the land where the greenery has faded away, bringing some warmth even in the cold winter.

It was an ordinary winter morning.

Suddenly, several crisp but slightly panicked chirping sounds came from the sky, breaking the tranquility of the early morning.

Xun Sheng looked around and saw a group of sparrows that had left their warm nests in search of food. Their petite figures were flying up and down in the air quickly, as if they were avoiding something.

Behind them, a proud swallow, slightly larger than a sparrow, was chasing them happily. From time to time, it opened its beak and called "Spaspa" twice, seeming to urge the sparrows to fly faster. some.

The quiet winter morning became a little more alive.

Seemingly disturbed by the movement outside the window, Ye Hui, who was still lying on the bed and sleeping soundly, suddenly raised his left hand and waved it twice. A smile appeared at the corner of his mouth involuntarily, and he muttered: "I'm still chasing you." Here we go, Flashy Yellow Dog”

"Flash Yellow Dog"

It was like a sudden electricity.

Ye Hui's sleepiness seemed to be completely driven away by the three words "Flash Yellow Dog". His closed eyes immediately opened, and at the same time he sat up straight from the bed, staring with a slightly confused look in his eyes. The wall ahead.

After a long while, Ye Hui rubbed his eyes, brushed away the traces of sleep left in the corners of his eyes, and woke up from the state of sleep.

Yes

I chased the yellow dog continuously for one month and eight days.

Just yesterday at three o'clock in the morning, I finally caught up with the shining Riolu I had been dreaming of for a long time.

congratulations

“The feeling of suddenly becoming rich is really fulfilling.”

Ye Hui couldn't help but feel a little happy when he thought that the shiny Riolu worth hundreds of millions was lying quietly in his game warehouse.

I couldn't wait to get out of bed. I didn't even bother to wash up, so I sat down at the desk and turned on the computer.

"Let me appreciate this source of happiness again."

After expertly inputting the power-on password, as soon as the computer desktop appeared, Ye Hui moved the mouse and moved the cursor to the familiar position, eager to double-click it.

but

"Where's my game icon?"

There is no trace of Ye Hui's most familiar icon in that most familiar position.

Just when Ye Hui's mind was filled with questions, someone knocked on the door not far from the desk, interrupting Ye Hui's doubts.

"Son, it's time to get up. Didn't you say you were going to school at 7:6 today? It's already [-]:[-]. If you don't get up, it will be too late."

"go to school"

A row of bigger question marks appeared in Ye Hui's head again.

Didn’t I graduate from college last year?

I have already attended classes for a year, why do I have to go to school again? Which course should I study?

Although he was full of doubts, Ye Hui could not mishear his mother's voice.

Ye Hui subconsciously glanced at the alarm clock on his desk.

6 points.

"Let's not talk about going to school or not. Mom's sense of time is still the same as before."

After silently complaining to his mother, Ye Hui no longer bothered about the disappearance of the computer game.

Maybe I was too excited last night and accidentally deleted the game icon or something when I turned off the computer.

The game is there, can you still run on your own?

Therefore, Ye Hui naturally is not worried about any problems with his game account.

After closing the computer, Ye Hui stood up and walked out of the room.

It’s better to figure out what going to school is all about first. It’s better not for my mother to see that she recently quit her job and stay at home, so she signs herself up for a tutoring class so that she can take some random and useful certificates.

Ye Hui was really worried.

In the living room, my parents are both there.

Mom Fang Ping was going in and out of the kitchen and living room, bringing out a lot of food commonly seen on the Ye family's breakfast table.

Dad Ye Jianhua, on the other hand, was lying on his side on the sofa and watching TV leisurely.

A daily morning for the Ye family.

"Son, get up and go wash up quickly. Breakfast is ready. Finish washing up quickly and eat it while it's hot."

Seeing Ye Hui walk out of her room, Fang Ping said to her son with a smile on her face.

Without waiting for Ye Hui to respond, he immediately turned to look at Dad Ye on the sofa. With a change of tone, he put down the dinner plate in his hand and said with a slight dissatisfaction:

"Lao Ye, stop watching TV. My son is out, let's eat."

"Oh, it's coming, it's coming, don't rush me, why are you in a hurry? It's only what time my son has to go to school, so he has plenty of time."

Dad Ye Jianhua doesn't care about his wife's tone. They are an old couple, so they naturally know each other's character after decades of getting along with each other.

"You know what? Today my son is going to choose the initial elf. There must be a reason for the school to ask him to go early. If my son goes early, he can choose an elf with a better race value. Then he will win at the starting line. We hand in every year. The elf cultivation fee is not in vain." Fang Ping naturally would not spoil her husband, so she replied seriously.

Ye Jianhua laughed a few times, sat down at the dining table, picked up the porridge and took a few sips. Then he picked up side dishes and said with a smile: "I asked you to learn more about the situation before, but you didn't listen. Now you are worried."

"Students in trainer schools across the country pay the same elf training fee, and the initial elf race values ​​the school prepares for my son and his group of future elf trainers are also similar. Going early and leaving late are not all the same, just go on time. ”

Ye Hui, who was in the bathroom, was brushing his teeth and listening to his parents chatting. The more he listened, the more confused he became.

Trainer School Elf Trainer

Is there something wrong?

When did mom and dad know about Pokémon?

When did I enter this training school?

Looking at the familiar handsome face in the mirror, Ye Hui was a little puzzled.

That's right, isn't this the "ordinary" face that I have had for 24 years?

Suddenly, Ye Hui stopped what he was doing, and his eyes instantly became confused and dull.

A few minutes later, his eyes became clear again. Ye Hui looked at himself in the mirror again, and couldn't help showing a somewhat complicated expression.

After accepting all the memories of this body, he already understood what was going on.

"I'm still me, just a few years younger."

"But has the world become a world where elves really exist?"

The world is big.

It was at least ten times bigger than the world Ye Hui knew.

More than 90 years ago, an extremely large number of space passages suddenly appeared all over the world, and countless unknown creatures poured into this world from the mysterious areas connected by these caves.

The whole world, which was still in the midst of a raging war at that time, felt as if a basin of cold water had been poured on it by this situation, which could be said to be a huge change in the world.

Most countries have woken up from the madness of war and begun to cooperate to explore this global incident that can affect the destiny of all mankind, leaving the war behind.

A small number of countries that have been blinded by war, completely ignore the changes in the global situation, and still want to invade the world. In this era that requires global unity, they are naturally beaten to death on the beach by the tide of history.

It is a pity that despite the global joint exploration, the fundamental reason for the emergence of the space channel has not been found. It seems to have appeared out of thin air. No one can even explore what is going on on the other side of the channel.

It was only through a large number of explorations and actual cases that we learned that these mysterious creatures from unknown areas possess all kinds of magical powers and can control various powerful forces in nature. Their strength is not far behind that of humans who have the power of technology.

There are even some creatures that are so powerful that they can instantly change the terrain and weather conditions in local areas.

Fortunately, these powerful creatures do not seem to have a strong tendency to attack. Once they leave the space channel, they hide in inaccessible wild jungles, deep mountains and seas, and disappear without a trace.

And most of those creatures that are weaker and widely distributed around the world are happy to get close to humans.

In the one year since the opening of the space channel, in addition to the influx of unknown creatures into the world, another global phenomenon is that the power of various offensive technological weapons in human hands has begun to gradually weaken, while human physical fitness has begun to gradually increase. .

In this environment, in order to stabilize their country's global position, countries around the world have to start researching new deterrents that can replace technological weapons.

Naturally, those creatures from unknown areas with magical powers caught the attention of those in power in various countries.

Befriending those biological individuals who are powerful in their own right allows them to protect the country and become a deterrent force for the country externally.

At the same time, other weak creatures are trained and cultivated so that they can grow and eventually become loyal partners and friends of mankind. This is also the power that the country regularly displays to the outside world.

This is how the trainer profession was born.

It was also during this year that in order to unify the names and better distinguish ordinary creatures from magical creatures from unknown areas, the name "elves" was born to exclusively refer to creatures with magical powers.

Along with it, there is also an Elf Alliance organization whose members are from all over the world. The main purpose of this organization is to better manage trainers with Elf power around the world, to regulate conflicts among countries around the world and to rationally distribute and utilize the world's public resources obtained during the joint exploration period. resource.

Under the regulation of the Elf Alliance, various problems caused by the previous wars and the influx of elves were gradually resolved, and the world moved towards peace.

In the following decades, with the strong support and publicity of official forces from various countries around the world, various research topics on elves have emerged one after another. Humanity's understanding of elves has been updated day by day, and the technology related to elves has developed rapidly.

Emerging auxiliary professions such as elf breeder and elf researcher, which were born in conjunction with the trainer profession, have gradually become the professions that people most hope to find employment and have the most prospects.

In the context of this era, the invention of the Poké Ball made the birth of trainers just like turning on the turboprop in a racing car. It greatly stimulated the size of the trainer professional group, and at the same time, it also caused the trainer group to begin to change from the original single unit. State control began to spread to the private sector on a large scale.

After entering the new millennium, in order to better control the power of domestic folk elves from spreading in society, at the same time improve the quality of trainers, resist unrest among wild elves, and enhance the country's protective power, some high schools and universities in the country began to carry out teaching reforms to integrate elves into the society. Relevant courses have been incorporated into compulsory courses and college entrance examination projects to cultivate a new generation of trainers in a systematic and large-scale way.

Ye Hui went to such a training school.
