Elf: I am the adopted son of Sakagi

On the No. 3 road to Hualan City, Mercury saw Ah Xing looking hesitant and seemed to want to say something.

"What's wrong, A-Xing?"

"Young Master, aren't you going to challenge the gym in Dark Gray City?"

It was because of this.

Mercury smiled and asked: "A Xing, you have followed Master A Ju for so long, don't you still know what the responsibilities of a gym trainer are?"

"Huh...? Accept challenge applications from passing trainers, then judge whether their strength is qualified and issue badges?"

"On the surface, that's true."

But the deeper reason may be that Ah Xing is still young and Master Ah Ju hasn’t had time to give guidance yet, right?

However, Mercury had figured out a few years ago that the significance of the existence of the gym did not end there.

First of all, those who can become a gym trainer must pass the alliance assessment and have considerable strength.

The main use of this strength is not to deal with challengers traveling from various places, but to protect the town.

There are countless towns in the Kanto region, but there are only eight cities with gyms.

Without exception, these eight cities are all outstanding cities in various aspects of economy, humanities, and tourism, and can bring extremely high economic benefits to the alliance.

If the city's defense strength is insufficient and there are no top trainers in charge, it will be easy to be offended by Xiaoxiao, causing economic losses.

The purpose of Gym Trainers' existence is to prevent such things from happening.

As for the Gym Challenge, it’s actually more of an add-on.

What the alliance means is to allocate so much money to your gym every year. In your spare time, you can help guide new trainers, support the younger ones, and improve the overall quality of trainers in the region.

Lest these people who don't receive much education and become trainers when their brains are hot go to other places to be embarrassed.

"So, rather than saying it is a gym challenge, it is a free coaching opportunity given by the alliance to newcomers."

"But Ah Xing, you and I grew up in the gym since we were young, and the education we received was the most top-notch and the most unreserved."

"This level of guidance is not going to be effective for us."

After explaining, Hui saw Ah Xing's thoughtful look and didn't bother him.

These were things that Master Aju would tell her in the future, but now that Xing could accept them in advance, there shouldn't be much of a problem.

After all, the future successor of Qianhong Gym must also be Ah Xing.

Although what Mercury just said is that the alliance will appoint gym trainers, you have not seen the eight gyms in Kanto. In addition to Joban City, Guren City and Kuye City, the last names of the other five gym leaders have never changed. Pass.

However, there is no need to describe these worldly things to a girl who is not yet underage.

And the most important thing now is... Mercury took out Nidorino's Poké Ball.

After several years of training, Nidorino has grown into an elf that balances strength and stability. Every time he faces the enemy, he is the strongest shield in front of him.

But now, Mercury found in Nidorino a long-lost restlessness, much like he had when he was a child.

"Don't worry, mate. I know you've been waiting a long time."

Hearing the comfort from his trainer, Nidorino growled in the elf ball, as if to say don't lie to the elf.

I was deceived when I was a child. Why did the Viridian people not deceive the Viridian people? It was obviously the Viridian people who did not deceive the Viridian elves.

After returning that day, Mercury didn't even mention to Nidolan's sister that he broke into the cave alone!

Sister Nidolan always thought he was bragging!

"You brat, I really thought you had become calmer, but I didn't expect that you still remember this incident until now."

Mercury laughed and cursed, and then said in a deep voice: "Don't worry, I won't lie to you this time. What you need for evolution is in front of you."

Nidorino suddenly became excited after hearing this, and he knocked on the inner space of the Poké Ball, signaling to release him quickly.

"It's nothing to praise you."

"Nido! (Hurry up!)"

"Don't run in the wrong direction, our goal is there!"

The direction indicated by the mercury is a towering mountain. It is still far away, but it already feels like it is right in front of you.

This is their destination, Mount Tsukimi.

Yuejian Mountain is a dangerous peak that even most flying elves find difficult to cross. Most travelers pass through caves.

But this is not the reason why Mount Tsukimi is famous. What Mount Tsukimi is really famous for is that meteors often fall from it. These meteors falling from the sky contain incredible power to evolve special elves.

It is also one of the evolutionary stones often mentioned by trainers, the Moon Stone.

Also appearing with the meteor is a rare elf named Pipi.

According to ancient legends, Pippi is a mysterious spirit that appears along with meteors in outer space.

But times are developing, and today's scientists have long confirmed that the misunderstanding was caused by the Pipis sensing the fluctuations of the moonstone coming from the meteor, and gathering together to worship here.

The square at the top of Yuejian Mountain is where Pipi worships the moon.

Whenever the moon is full, the Pipis will gather here to sing and dance together to express gratitude for the gifts of nature.

Unfortunately, due to human greed, the Moon Stone has been mined extensively.The figures of the Pipis also gradually disappeared as the number of moon stones decreased, and the scene of worship no longer reappeared.

However, in recent years, as the mining teams have retreated and Yuetimi Mountain has regained its calm, there are often rumors that a trainer has picked up a lost moon stone or seen Pippi in Yuetimi Mountain.

It was also because of these rumors that Mercury decided to try his luck at Mount Tsukimi for the sake of Nidorino even though moon stones were hard to find on the market.

It is true that he could receive the Moon Stone by raising the price like crazy, but he just wanted to try to see if he could be considered a non-chief.

They say that when God closes a door for you, he will open a window for you.

I haven't met the red and green people, so it shouldn't be a big problem to pick up a piece of moon stone, right?

But right at the destination of Hui Hu and A Xing, on the mountainside of Yuejian Mountain, a figure was watching them silently.

Putting away the telescope, Xiao Lan said to Nidona and Pippi beside him: "It seems that the difficult little brother is also targeting the Moon Stone. What should we do next?"

Obviously the two elves couldn't understand what Xiao Lan meant, but Xiao Lan didn't care either.

"Fufu, judging from the way this little brother is dressed, he must be quite rich, right?"

"He has a good family, a happy childhood, a good education, and his childhood sweetheart has always been with him. I'm so envious. Compared with him, Yin and I..."

She seemed to have thought of something unpleasant, and her expression darkened a lot.

After a while, Xiaolan raised her face and returned to her original vitality. Then she cheered up as if to convince herself: "In this case, it shouldn't matter if he bleeds a little, right?"

Just do it, Xiao Lan found a stone and asked the Variety Monster to transform it.

She is an expert at lying to people.
