Pokémon Padea Adventure: The Journey Continues

I don't know how long it took, but Xiaoqing finally woke up from her sleep. She couldn't remember what happened during this time, but she was still protecting the Pokémon egg tightly in her arms.

Xiaoqing was in a daze, rubbed her sleepy eyes, and tried to remember after getting up.

"What happened to me? Why are I here..."

Suddenly, Xiaoqing finally recalled what happened last night. After they escaped from Area Zero, they encountered a group of tomb puppies. Xiaoqing looked around in fear. It was now bright in the daytime, and the tomb dogs had also gone underground to avoid the sun.

"By the way, my balls..."

Xiao Qing looked down anxiously at the object he was holding in his arms, only to find that it was just his backpack, not a Pokémon egg. Xiao Qing was so shocked that he looked behind him again. He stood up from sitting up and walked around in place. After a few laps, he looked at Tiremiao who was guarding him.

"Tiremeow! Have you seen the Pokémon egg?"

After learning that Xiaoqing was safe, Tiremiao breathed a deep sigh of relief, and then pointed to the scalding crocodile who was playing wildly on the side. Xiaoqing also recalled how they and the scalding crocodile got separated together.

"Scorching Crocodile! What happened to it?"

Xiao Qing stared at Scorching Crocodile not far away. Scorching Crocodile also noticed Xiao Qing waking up and ran towards it excitedly, knowing that Xiao Qing could not touch fire Pokémon yet. , Tiremiao naturally stopped in front of the scalding crocodile. The scalding crocodile, who was born to be playful and fond of sticking up, could only sit down on the ground angrily and rolled around in aggrieved manner after his pursuit was fruitless.

Xiaoqing subconsciously raised her arms to block in fear. After seeing Tiremiao in front of her stopping the Scorching Crocodile, the Scorching Crocodile was crying crazily. Xiaoqing could only comfort her through Tiremiao.

"Don't be sad, Hot Crocodile. I will pick the apples you like to eat later..."

Hearing that there was delicious food, the Scorching Crocodile returned to his good mood. At this time, Xiaoqing also discovered that the light ball on the Scorching Crocodile's head was different. Since it was already daytime, the light ball on the Scorching Crocodile's head was no longer there. It's so dazzling, and the "light ball" above the head is now much larger than before...

"This..., this! Isn't this my Pokémon egg? It turned out to be kept by Scorching Crocodile!"

I saw the evolved Scorching Crocodile. The flaming bird's nest on top of its head was placed firmly as if it was born to place Pokémon eggs. The light ball on top of its head was replaced by a Pokémon egg. At this time, the egg was placed there. The head of the scalding crocodile seemed unusually stable, with slight shaking from time to time, as if the egg would hatch soon.

Seeing the eggshell blushing slightly, Xiao Qing said jokingly.

"Oh my god! Scorching Crocodile, you are so suitable for carrying Pokémon eggs. It's as if you were born just for this. Fortunately, you are here to maintain the egg's incubation temperature... In the next period of time, it will only I can trouble you!"

The scalding crocodile cherishes each other and likes Xiao Qing's egg very much. He also wanted to get in touch with the egg in the glass container many times before. Now he finally got his wish. The scalding crocodile also fulfilled his mission and carefully protected it. The Pokémon egg above the head.

Watching the scene of the scalding crocodile keeping its eggs warm, Xiao Qing also recalled the time when the tomb dog took the egg away. It also used the residual warmth of the candlelight above its head to keep the egg warm. After the temperature control of the glass container failed, fortunately, there was a relay of heat preservation between the tomb dog and the scalding crocodile, which prevented this unappeared life from disappearing.

Xiao Qing wanted to express her gratitude to the Tomb Puppies, but unfortunately they had already disappeared underground during the day. Then Xiao Qing remembered the Laila she had met, and she had always said that the Tomb Puppies were not bad Pokémon, and then Xiaoqing also planned to thank her, but only Xiaoqing and the others were here, and there was no trace of other people or Pokémon around.

Xiaoqing recalled what Laila said before in confusion.

"Where's Ms. Laila! Is it possible that she has gone back? By the way, I remember she said that one of her old friends likes to stay here at night. This is..."

At night, Xiao Qing didn't see clearly where they were. At this time, the surrounding environment was also illuminated by the day and became clear. Xiao Qing felt a chill on her back when she saw the surroundings because they were in a cemetery. There was an eerie and terrifying aura, and Xiao Qing was so frightened that he screamed incoherently.

"Why is this a cemetery! But it's not surprising that there are graveyard dogs. Isn't it a cemetery? Then why did Laila come here, in the middle of the night..."

Regarding Laila's strange appearance and mysterious disappearance, she appeared here alone, late at night, and said something unfathomable about wanting to see her old friend... Then Xiaoqing burst out with a sharp explosion.

"... Could it be that she is..., ah! Tiremeow, Scorching Crocodile, let's get out of here quickly!"

In panic, Xiao Qing shouted to Tiremiao and the others to follow them, left here, and then plunged into a forest not far away. Because Xiao Qing and the others walked too fast, they did not notice the people coming from around them. Strange paintings on the trees.

At the same time, in the woods, Pipa and the teal duck beside him got lost and wandered around in the woods.

"The surrounding trees all have this weird pattern. The Rotom mobile phone finally got a signal after it was far away from Area Zero. This place is called "Marked Forest". Is the origin of this name because of these patterns? "

"Gada Gada..."

The duck next to her also didn't know and shook her head.

Suddenly, a black shadow passed by the surrounding trees and made a rustling sound. Runduck immediately became alert, but Pipa said.

"Don't be nervous, Teal! I think it's just a wild Pokémon living in this forest. We finally left "Zone Zero" and relax. Because of me, Xiaozhi, Xiaoqing, Yeci, and Harley suffered this disaster... Let's go back to Xiaozhi and the others. "

As Piper and the others were walking, Team Rocket and the others appeared miserably in front of Piper, and saw them saying their opening words with tired faces.

"To prevent the destruction of the world..."

Halfway through the opening remarks, Piper couldn't bear to hear Team Rocket being so powerless, so she spoke for them.

"Okay, okay, I know you are Team Rocket. You have also successfully escaped from "Zero Area" without incident. Congratulations to you. Do you have anything else to do here? "

Although Team Rocket was a little unhappy that their opening session was interrupted by Piper, they were really tired from escaping from "Zero Area" and replied.

"Let's not mention that. That place was really a scary place. It was surrounded by unusual Pokémon..."

"We finally got rid of the tired faces chasing us. The office workers riding the flamingos were really exhausting us."

The scene where Aoki chased them away also appeared immediately in Pipa's mind, and then Meow Meow said.

"Why are there only big ones here? Little ones, little girls. Where are Pikachu and the others? ...I don't care, this trip can't be in vain. We, Team Rocket, need to take care of your Pokémon and the Teal beside you." And take over, meow.”

Pipa looked at them helplessly, and then said angrily.

"Sure enough, you still have the same virtue. Forget it, I'll teach you a lesson!"

Just when Pipa touched his Poké Ball, not to mention the Mastiff Godfather who was still recovering from his injuries, Salt Stone Barrier who had lost the ability to fight, and Hot Baby who had lost the will to fight were not a good way to face the battle.

As a result, Pipa could only say to the duck beside him.

"Running Duck, I don't have any Pokémon on hand that can be used for battle. Can I still use your power to fight?"

Behind his bangs, Run Shuiya turned around handsomely and walked towards Team Rocket and the others, getting ready for a fight. Team Rocket and the others readily accepted the challenge. Just when the two sides were at war and the battle was imminent, the man who was in the bush just now The black shadow appeared again.

I saw it flashing past the people around me at an extremely fast speed. At such a speed, no one could see the other person's face clearly. They only knew that their eyes went dark, and then when they opened their eyes, different faces appeared on the people's faces. degree of stains.

"Kojiro, Miaomiao, and Guo Ranweng! What's wrong with your faces?"

"It's true, Meow Meow's face!...What's going on?"

"Not to mention this, Musashi, your face is also painted!"

"What are you talking about! Where is my mirror? The mirror I carry with me..."

"Sonans!"

Seeing Team Rocket making a mess in front of her, Piper also noticed the stains on her face. After taking out a handkerchief and wiping her face, she said to the duck.

"Let me wipe it for you! Our faces have been painted by unknown guys. What on earth is that..."

After Pipa's reminder, Run Shui Ya also noticed that his face had also been brutally attacked. He raised his wings and touched his face, which was stained just like the others.

Piper said after observing the stains that suddenly appeared on her face.

"This seems to be tree juice. Who uses tree juice to smear our faces?"

The duck looked angry, and Piper put suspicion on Team Rocket.

"Is this a prank you guys are doing!"

Kojiro and Miaomiao on the other side replied aggrievedly after wiping off the stains on their faces.

"We didn't do this. I also want to know who did it... It's so sticky and uncomfortable!"

Among both parties, only Musashi and Run Shuiya had their heads lowered. Their expressions could not be clearly seen, and their bodies were shaking slightly...

Just then, the culprit appeared. A Pokémon with a black and gray color, a thin body, a pair of big ears, a pair of big cyan eyes, and a big fluffy tail was charging at Piper and Rocket on the tree. Team and others smiled evilly. On its slender fingers, there are drops of blue liquid dripping down, which are the same as the stains on everyone's faces. Not only that, even the patterns on the trunks of the big trees in the "Marked Forest" are also the same. Its masterpiece…

Meowth and Kojiro immediately shouted to the Pokémon on the tree.

"It's just your prank! What exactly do you want to do?"

Piper took out her cell phone and Rotom inquired.

"I remember the other party is..., Lotolotoloto..."

"Picker, Poison Monkey Pokémon, Poison-type and Normal-type, the evolved form of Juice Mole.

The Painter is nocturnal. After the sun goes down, it will lick its fingers and apply venom on it. Then it will draw patterns on trees throughout its territory and set poisonous traps. The venom will emit a sweet fragrance and attract people. Incoming Bug Pokémon will be paralyzed. When it's almost dawn, the Painter will capture the immobile Pokémon. The patterns it draws will vary depending on the individual, and it will continue to draw the same pattern throughout its life.

It is good at using venom that changes color according to the food it eats, such as spraying venom from its mouth, or tearing its opponent apart with its venom-stained claws. Once danger is sensed, the concentration of toxins in the body will increase sharply, and the poisonous saliva will become even more toxic, becoming so poisonous that one cannot move for three days after inhalation. "

"So that's it. Sure enough, all of this is the work of the Marker. The different colors on the pattern are the colors of the tree juice it spits out after chewing different foods!"

At this moment, the Rockets had asked the other party's intention of doing this, and the Mark Painter replied disapprovingly.

"Zibiao Zibiao..."

Meowth translated based on the other person's answer.

"What did you say? Just for fun..., what a born bad guy, it makes me so angry!"

At this moment, Musashi and Run Shuiya, who had not made any reaction at first, finally reacted. They saw that both of them were filled with murderous intent. Their hair was down, and their faces were unkempt. , his eyes glowed red, revealed from his hanging hair.

The rest of Team Rocket nearby were startled by the angry Musashi and quickly persuaded him.

"Okay, Musashi! Don't be angry, it's just an insignificant prank by a wild Pokémon..."

"That is to say, Meow, let's take care of Big Little Goblin now and capture all his Pokémon, and then go find Little Goblin, the little girl and Pikachu, Meow."

"So..., Sonans."

Seeing that Musashi was determined to kill the painted target regardless of it, he said coldly.

"If you dare to draw the face of a flower star, I will destroy you..."

Pipa, who was on the opposite side, saw that Team Rocket's target was no longer on him, and said to the duck.

"Run Shui Ya, let's sneak away while they don't pay attention to us now..., Run Shui Ya?"

Runshuiya held the tree juice stained by the Tubiao on his head, his eyes were sharp, and he also made a gesture of wanting to cut the Tubiao into pieces.

Tu Biaoke watched Musashi and Runduck in front of him respond to its prank, and immediately became interested. He fell from the tree to the ground, his eyes rolling, as if he was thinking about the next prank. Musashi and Runduiya, who were overwhelmed by anger, ran towards Tu Biao Ke who came to the ground.
