Dawn of Pokémon

Trainer Xue also reminds you: please bookmark () after reading it, it will be more convenient to read it again.

By the time Xiaoye walked out of the old bar, the colors of dusk had already filled the sky.

Putting the plain square box into her jacket pocket, Xiaoye walked through Bar_Street, which was obviously much busier.It wasn't until she reached the end of the street that Xiaoye took back the power of the invisible waveguide.

As Xiaoye expected, no one had the intention to follow her to find out the truth.For this huge underground duel arena, she may indeed be just the most inconspicuous customer.

Although she had only seen the tip of the iceberg in the White Crow Underground Dueling Ground, Xiaoye could tell that this was a quite huge group, or in other words, power.It has standardized systems and procedures, and must have considerable credibility in the outside world.

As long as you don't violate its rules and borrow power carefully, the possibility of accidents is very small.

But no matter what, before you become stronger, it is better to have less involvement with this place.

After returning to the Pokémon Center and closing the dormitory door, Xiaoye tried to use the purchased plug-in.

The Pokémon Pokédex itself comes with an empty add-on disk, which is inserted into the interface on the side of the Pokédex.Trainers who need additional functions such as video recording, photography, notepad, etc. can download or purchase the program from the Internet and install it in an additional disk.

The add-on disk purchased from the White Crow Underground Duel Arena is no different from the original one. No matter how carefully you look at it, you will only think that it is an accessory produced by the original factory.

After replacing the original add-on disk, Xiaoye opened the Pokédex.As expected, the "Limited number of Pokémon carried" column in the system information changed to 10. Other than that, there was nothing unusual.

It is indeed a very reliable product.

Xiaoye closed the illustrated book and put down the last doubt in her heart about the white crow.

Then, Xiaoye opened the computer placed in front of the table.After inputting the URL that had been memorized in my mind, the interface that opened seemed like the official website of an online game; the dark background was inlaid with many game interface-like pictures, and the title was a line of white characters - [The Creation of the Snow-Colored Crow] King's Road Ver.2.0.5 is now online].

Of course, the so-called online game homepage is just a cover.After Xiaoye entered the lengthy 12-digit card number on her membership card into the information bar to complete the login, a new system notification was displayed in the upper right corner.

"Dear Mr. KU7481, hello. You purchased the product '[Plug-in] Pokémon carrying limit modifier, quantity setting [1000]' at 2:16 pm on February 18, 23 in Dry Leaf City, and used The payment method is installment. Starting from next month, please remit the balance of 10pd to the following account before the 5th of each month. Thank you for your generosity."

Putting down the mouse, Xiaoye sighed deeply.

Although it is good to get what you want, however...

He has become a complete pauper.

All the remaining property is 1125pd, and he can't even afford a bottle of high-grade wound medicine.

Thinking about having to pay the balance of 6000pd every month, Xiaoye suddenly had the urge to hit a wall.

One of the links attached to the email was "Penalty for late payment." Even if she didn't click on it, Xiaoye knew that the so-called punishment was definitely not a peaceful and friendly content.

It seems that we need to work hard to make money, from now on...

After a cursory glance at the entire homepage, Xiaoye saw the distribution of the White Crow Underground Dueling Grounds in various cities.At the entrance to the Duel Arena in Kuye City, in addition to the Orange Base Bar that Xiaoye knows, there is also a place called "Five Rivers Tea House".Almost all larger cities have dueling venues, and even Mihara City, the capital of the alliance, is no exception.

It seems that next time I won’t have to spend so much time looking for the entrance.

Xiaoye shook her head, cleared the browsing history, closed the computer, and picked up the sleepy Pichu on her shoulders.

"Pichu, I'll leave it to you for tomorrow's gym battle. Please do your best."

"Qiu?" The electric mouse looked a little confused.

"If you lose, we will probably have nothing to eat."

"...I will definitely give my best Qiu!!"

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

The elf calendar is 995 years old.

"hateful!"

The strong man in military uniform punched the wall hard, ignoring the stinging sensation on the back of his hand.

"Okay, okay, Pony, calm down, being too excited is not good for your health."

The old fishing man held up his straw hat and said with a smile.

"How can you calm down at this time!"

Even though he was roaring like this, the man in his prime still sat down wilfully after being angry for a while.

"Sorry, Lieutenant General, I'm rude..."

"That's right, 'former lieutenant general', Xiaoma."

As a major in the Air Force who had participated in the annihilation battle of Somyana in 987, Ma Zhishi should not have shown such a violent look in front of the former Air Force Lieutenant General he respected most.Unfortunately, the news he received was enough to make any passionate soldier unable to calm down.

disarmament.

It is now the year 995 of the Elven Calendar, seven years have passed since the end of the year 988 when the Annihilation War of Somiana ended.Since the defeat of the Palaso Kingdom, the unrest on the northern border has significantly decreased, and the threats from various national forces are no longer what they used to be.

They should be happy that their country is safe.However, security means no longer needing so many soldiers.

Ma Zhishi's ancestors have been in the air force for generations, and he is certainly no exception.He considers himself an elite in the Air Force and has always been sincere to the country.However, the disarmament order still came to him.

Obeying orders is a soldier's bounden duty.No matter how reluctant he was to the army he had been in for many years and the brothers he had fought side by side with, he could only obey.

"Xiao Ma, have you thought about what you want to do in the future?"

"I... don't know." The usually arrogant Air Force Major looked a little confused, and even his dazzling blond hair had dimmed.

"I have always been a soldier of the Pokémon Alliance. The only thing I am good at is fighting."

The old fishing man rolled his eyes and said with a smile, "That's right, pony.

I remember you said that one of your students became a lieutenant a few days ago, right? "

"That's right, it's that boy Chris." When he mentioned this, Ma Zhishi immediately became excited. "It's a pity that you didn't go to see that test match. You are worthy of being the student I taught. The thunder in the final game The moves are like lasers!”

Seeing Ma Zhishi using his limited vocabulary to happily describe the scene at that time, the old man nodded with a smile, "Is this the third kid to become a captain? There are not many people in the army who are as devoted as you are to teaching the younger generations. Sigh."

"Even if they are still very young, those children are still my comrades-in-arms. Of course, I must try my best to help."

Looking directly into Ma Zhishi's eyes, the old fisherman put down his fishing rod.

"pony."

"Lieutenant General, please speak."

"It's 'Former Lieutenant General'." The old man cleared his throat, "You just kept saying that 'the only thing you're good at is fighting'. Aren't there other things you're good at?"

"You mean...?"

Seeing Ma Zhishi's confused look, the old man smiled.

"Guiding and teaching the younger generations to make them stronger is an amazing talent."

"How about that, Pony? Have you ever considered—"

"Become a gym leader?"

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

The next morning.

In the harbor area of ​​Kuye City, there is a very conspicuous tall building.

It's called the "Enterprise Building" and was transformed from the USS Enterprise, which was once the world's largest aircraft carrier. It is a comprehensive commercial building fixed at the port.The internal facilities are very complete, from hotels, department stores to Pokémon gyms, which is enough for people to enjoy a lifetime without going out.

The USS Enterprise aircraft carrier was a product of the "bipolar war" period when the Pokémon League and the Guardian Alliance were at war; after the war, its remaining value was fully utilized.The powerful engines of the aircraft carrier are used to generate electricity, which can not only supply the entire Enterprise Building, but can even provide energy for other buildings in the city.

Perhaps because of this, the electricity bill in Kuye City is very cheap, and it is also known as the "Electric City".

This enterprising building is one of the landmark buildings in Kuye City. However, it has just undergone a huge renovation project and only resumed business a month ago.

Xiao Ye had read about the accident that caused severe trauma to the Enterprise Building from the Alliance Daily half a year ago.

[On April 999, 4 in the Elven Calendar, there was a major fire incident in the Enterprising Building. 】

The cause of the fire in the building is said to be related to a fight between unknown forces, but the circumstances of that day have not yet been fully investigated.After the violent explosion, the fire started on the 35th floor and soon spread to the top floor. The fire brigade and rescue teams were dispatched one after another, but the effect was still very little. When the roof collapsed, many rescuers seemed to be buried in it. , causing serious casualties.

Now, the building has long been restored to its original shape, and there is no trace of the original flames.But there is a stone monument in the square in front of the building, and someone can be vaguely seen standing solemnly in front of the monument.

Even if the disaster has passed, its harm to people will not disappear easily.

After passing through the spacious door on the side of the aircraft carrier, Xiao Ye turned around and walked down the stairs to the underground.

The city's gym is open on the fifth underground floor of the Enterprising Building.After turning around in the stairwell for a moment, the iron gate and the sign erected on the side appeared in front of us.

"Ahead is the Kuchiba Gym [Japanese: クチバジム, Kuchiba_Gym, English: Vermilion_Gym]. The electromagnetic field is very strong, but harmless to the human body. If you are concerned about your hair getting messy, I recommend you to go to the aggressive hair salon on the second floor."

"Master, this building feels so comfortable~" Pichu shook his ears happily, arcs of electricity flashing next to his cheeks.This building filled with electrical energy is truly a dreamy paradise for Electric-type Pokémon.

Pushing open the iron door, the entrance is dotted with colorful neon lights.Ahead is a wide underground space, currently shrouded in darkness.

"excuse me."

As soon as he finished speaking, all the neon lights went out, and a dazzling beam of light hit Xiaoye.

"Wele_to_Kuchiba_Gym!" A strong voice resounded.Opposite him, a burly man with blond hair in military uniform sat on the sofa, surrounded by wires and small colored lights.

"I am the master of this gym, Ma Zhishi." The sturdy man stood up, his figure becoming more and more burly, "Little brother, are you here to become a disciple? Or are you here to challenge?"

This time it's the little brother.

Xiao Ye, who had become accustomed to this, bowed to Ma Zhishi, "Hello, Mr. Ma Zhishi. Please compete with me in the Gym Challenge."

The leader of the Dead Leaf Gym, Ma Zhishi, is said to have been an air force in the Hezhong region and was quite powerful.In the Elven Calendar 995, five years ago, Ma Zhishi retired from the army and became the master of the Dead Leaf Gym.

Why he gave up his military rank and retired in his prime is still a mystery. The more mainstream theory on the GT forum is that after the war on the northern border ended 13 years ago, the Pokémon League began to gradually disarm, and Ma Zhishi was a soldier who was forced to retire. one.

"Hahahahahahaha." Ma Zhishi let out a deafening laugh, "My little brother is quite courageous despite his age. Well, I accept your challenge!"

The lights on the ceiling lit up one by one, illuminating the battlefield brightly.The referee in uniform was already in place. Xiaoye inserted the Pokémon Pokédex into the battle recorder and walked up to the challenger's seat.

Ma Zhishi waved his strong arms and threw the red and white ball high into the sky.

"The rules of combat are one-on-one, so I won't talk nonsense."

"Come on, Battle!"
