Dawn of Pokémon

The Pokémon Trainer Elite Academy, commonly known as PES, is the most famous and authoritative trainer training academy in the entire Pokémon League.It is located in the red/zone close to the city center and is the dream palace of countless trainers aiming for a career.

This world-famous school has produced many excellent trainers, and many active investigators have studied at PES.However, the PES entrance exam is also famous for its difficulty. It is difficult for ordinary young trainers to obtain admission qualifications even if they are overwhelmed.

PES does not prohibit outsiders from visiting, so Xiaoye walked into the campus easily.The sounds of fighting seemed to come from the training ground not far away. Xiaoye thought for a while and did not follow her curiosity to watch the battle of future elites. Instead, she walked into the main building as planned and walked into a staircase hall. I found my purpose in the classroom.

Professor Black Water Mill graduated from the School of History at Rainbow Public University and has taught history-related subjects at PES for more than 80 years.This [-]-year-old professor is friendly and his lectures are lively and interesting. Students from other schools often come to PES specifically to listen to his lectures.

The back door of the lecture theater was not closed, and Xiao Ye quietly slipped to the last row - the PES students were all wearing neat school uniforms, and there were many people in the back rows who were wearing casual clothes like Xiao Ye, and they were obviously from other schools. Those who skip classes.

Public courses such as World History are generally not very popular in Trainer Training Academy, but Professor Heishui's class is completely the opposite. The young students listen with great interest and burst into cheerful laughter from time to time.Xiaoye saw the girl in regular clothes in front of her looking at the students who were happily interacting with the professor, showing an expression of envy that could not be concealed. She once again deeply felt the status of PES in the hearts of trainers.

——According to the understanding of people from other worlds, PES is probably the trainer version of "Qingbei".

After class, Xiaoye did not immediately go to talk to Professor Heishui.She didn't follow him until the gray-haired old man patiently answered the students' questions one by one and left the classroom with the folder.

Professor Heishui is already old, so his teaching tasks are naturally much less than those of younger teachers.He strolled to the top floor as usual, sat by the window and drank tea leisurely.

This tearoom is also very popular among students, and Professor Heishui often chats with passing students here.However, this time when he heard the question from the unfamiliar-looking child, he couldn't help but straighten up.

The person sitting next to him was not wearing any school uniform, and he looked very young. He looked more like a trainer who had just started traveling than a PES student with more or less years of travel experience.The tone in which she asked the question was respectful, even a little too polite - PES students would not treat him with such caution.If the content of the topic wasn't a bit sensitive, Professor Heishui, who likes to teach others, would actually be happy to answer this little guy's questions.

"The flood of Dezhi Lake and the Three Holy Mushrooms... Well, it seems that I did talk about something similar. What do you want to know about this period of history?" The old man put on his unique kind smile, picked up the teacup and took a sip, slowly Swallowed.

Xiaoye responded softly, "Excuse me, what did you refer to as the 'disaster 500 years ago'?"

The old man fell into a long silence.

The questioner noticed Professor Heishui's embarrassment in time and was hesitating whether to withdraw the question. The old man suddenly said, "You just said that you read these contents from a bookmark, right?"

"Yes." Xiaoye nodded.

"Are the words on that bookmark so messed up that you can't even read them?"

"……Yes."

Professor Heishui was satisfied when he saw the calm and adult-like girl's eyes widen slightly, and couldn't help laughing out loud, "I knew that only that kid would write these contents on the bookmark casually. Go up and forget to take it out of the book."

Xiao Ye looked at the old man who was laughing and laughing to himself, and was a little confused for a moment.So... Professor Blackwater knows whose bookmark belongs to him?

Thinking of the mysterious letter, Xiaoye felt that she should ask the identity of the bookmark owner.However, as if he was aware of her doubts, Professor Heishui spoke with a smile first, "Well, I need to protect the privacy of my students, so I won't expose that kid's identity. As for your question..."

Seeing that the purple-haired girl's eyes immediately became focused, Professor Heishui sighed, "Sorry, I also want to answer your question, but that matter cannot be talked about casually." He pointed to the top of his head, " The superiors have suppressed this matter for hundreds of years. Although it is not good to prevent the truth from coming to light, stability is more important to the country than anything else. I will tell you the secret like this, in case someone discovers it, Old man, I can still manage to fool you, but you may be in trouble."

The air was silent for a moment.The old man slowly poured himself a second cup of tea, "It's a good thing that you children are curious, but investigating this matter is a bit too dangerous. You might as well..."

Halfway through his words, he suddenly stopped talking and his eyes were attracted by the news playing on the hanging screen nearby.

Hearing Professor Heishui's exclamation of "Oh", Xiaoye also turned around and looked.The picture displayed on the screen was a little too familiar, which made Xiaoye stunned for a moment.

"... At present, the bomb left in the abandoned platform has been safely dismantled, and the engineering team has moved in urgently to start the repair work of the platform, which is expected to be completed within three days. The wild Pokémon that originally lived in the platform Mengya has already found a new residence..."

Following the reporter's introduction, the scene cut to the scene - it turned out to be the abandoned platform that Xiaoye and his group discovered yesterday.

"This is really... what you said." Professor Heishui sighed softly.

"...?"

"This platform has a lot of history." The old man lowered his voice, not knowing whether he was talking to Xiaoye or to himself, "After the catastrophe that summer, the people on the Quartz Plateau began to fear the next one to be attacked. I immediately dug a lot of air-raid shelters underground. Fortunately, these air-raid shelters were not really used, otherwise our capital might not be what it is now."

Xiao Ye was stunned for a moment, and suddenly an idea came to her.The broken information in the mind automatically connects together, forming a bright road leading to the truth.

Noticing that the girl next to him suddenly stood up, Professor Heishui tilted his head and said, "Well, are you leaving?"

"Yes. Thank you for your advice, I have benefited a lot." Xiaoye bowed respectfully to the old man, her tone so sincere that he felt a little confused.However, after meeting those light purple eyes, the old professor keenly noticed something.

He smiled knowingly.

Young people... having a strong thirst for knowledge is a good thing, isn't it?

After saying goodbye to Professor Heishui, Xiaoye almost ran out of the PES campus.

She knew what she should do - Professor Heishui's inadvertent soliloquy just now gave her a crucial clue.The abandoned platform was originally an air raid shelter dug 500 years ago, and its construction time was "after the catastrophe of that summer" - most likely the end of the Eclipse Sun Rebellion.Xiaoye, who had been to the abandoned platform herself, knew that there was a commemorative plaque at the entrance that recorded the historical background of the abandoned platform.

Include the year the old bomb shelter was built.

If we could find out when the air raid shelter was built, going back a few months to summer would be the time when the Eclipse Rebellion occurred.The Union National Library is famous for its complete collection of materials. It is said that even old documents from nearly a thousand years ago have been preserved.After locking in the year and month of the Eclipse Rebellion, you just need to go to the library and check the newspapers and magazines from that time, and you might be able to find some clues.

As if a game that had been blocked for a long time suddenly got an important prop, the subsequent investigation progressed so smoothly that Xiao Ye was not used to it.A warning cordon has been set up near the abandoned platform, but this cannot stop Ghost Stone, who can become invisible.It sneaked in quietly, accurately found the commemorative plaque that was abandoned in the corner, waiting to be destroyed, took it out of the platform, and handed it to its trainer.

The erosion of time had made the writing on it blurry, but Xiaoye still found the information she needed.

[The air-raid shelter was completed in the spring of 512 in the Elven Calendar]

Then, the time when the Sun Eclipse Rebellion occurred was—the summer of 511 in the Elven Calendar.

After writing "May to August, Elf Calendar Year 511" on the notepad, Xiao Ye finally felt a little glimmer of light.She didn't procrastinate any longer, and didn't even bother to eat lunch, so she plunged into the newspapers and magazines section of the Union State Library.

500 years ago, the country that ruled the Quartz Plateau was not called the Pokémon Alliance, and people's customs at that time were completely different from what they are now.However, the castle-like building of the Hall of Champions did exist as a library at that time, and the newspapers and magazines at that time have also been relatively completely preserved.

Few people stopped in the newspaper and magazine area, and many old pages had a thin layer of dust on them.Xiaoye started flipping through the newspaper from May 511, 5 in the Elf Calendar, and carefully browsed every detail.When she turned to the July newspaper, she noticed something unusual - the newspapers before and after were clearly well preserved, but only the mid-to-late July newspaper was missing a few pages, as if a lot of content was missing.

She understands what that means.

As a result, Xiaoye rummaged through every corner of the newspapers and magazines more carefully.Even if the Alliance deliberately destroyed all reports related to the Eclipse Rebellion in order to cover up the public's eyes, it is very likely that there would be omissions when sifting through such a huge amount of information, especially some tabloids that are most likely to slip through the net.And this time Xiaoye had a rare chance of good luck——

As the sun was about to set, she found the information she wanted in the corner of a newspaper called Mishima Daily.It was just a text message with very few words, but the content still shocked Xiaoye.

====================

On July 511, 7 in the Elf Calendar, the conflict between the Himi family and the Narukami family intensified, and a large-scale firefight finally broke out on Honglian Island.The guardian beasts of the two races were fighting fiercely in the sky.Later, the Fire People from the Southern Islands appeared on the battlefield with the Flame Birds and tried to mediate the battle.However, the conflict between Ice and Thunder has already reached an irreconcilable level. The strong insertion of Fire did not stop the fight, but instead made itself vulnerable from both sides.

At noon, the solar eclipse began, and a black monster with two wings on its back appeared from the black sun, which was consistent with the form of the legendary abyss demon that appeared during the Glorious Era.They appeared continuously on the battlefield, killing all creatures mercilessly, and Red Lotus Island became a hell of life.

At around [-]:[-] in the afternoon, three Lake Messengers from the distant Sinnoh Continent appeared on Red Lotus Island and issued a call that spread throughout the world. A few minutes later, the Phoenix King appeared on Red Lotus Island, spitting out sacred flames and destroying the island. All the monsters on it were burned.Subsequently, the three severely damaged tribes withdrew their troops at the same time, and the battle came to an end.

According to our frontline reporter, the envoy of the lake who called for the Phoenix King was suspected to have been guided to Red Lotus Island by a man with black hair and golden eyes.The man only revealed his name "Chen Kassel" in the interview, and disappeared shortly after the Phoenix King appeared.

The above is the latest battle report from the Red Lotus Island front line.
