Pokémon Origins

Chapter 93: Zi Mu's ability is doubted everywhere

"Hmm... cough cough!" Looking at the stolen illustrations and the somewhat angry Zi Mu, Xiao Liu couldn't help but dry cough twice, forcing himself to calm down, and asked, "Excuse me, sir, I lost my composure. May I ask which appraiser you want to be?"

"Hey?" Zi Mu put the illustrated book back into his inner pocket. After hearing what Xiao Liu said, he looked a little stupid. "What direction?"

No, Su Xier didn't tell me what other directions it would be divided into? !

"?"

Looking at Zi Mu's answer, the apologetic look on Xiao Liu's face suddenly froze.

"Whoo~"

With a long sigh, Xiao Liu calmed himself down, but he was thinking to himself: It seems that I have met another young master who is bored and comes here to kill time... and this young master... comes here to entertain me without even doing any common sense or work!

"I don't get angry when others get angry, but if I get angry and get sick, no one can replace me~" Xiao Liu patted his chest and silently recited this sentence in his heart. He felt that his spiritual realm had been sublimated.

"Hey, brother?" Zi Mu poked Xiao Liu, who suddenly closed his eyes and breathed in front of him, and said, "What's up? Are you cultivating immortality, bro?"

"..."

"Ah~" Xiao Liu let out a long sigh, calmed down, tried not to look at Zi Mu, and said, "Which attribute appraiser do you want to take the exam to become?"

"What? I don't want to take the test!" Zi Mu touched his chin and said, "I want to take the test to become an all-attribute appraiser."

After thinking for a while, Zi Mu was afraid that Xiao Liu, who looked dazed, wouldn't understand, so he added, "Intermediate!"

"Namo Amitabha~" After hearing what Zi Mu said, Xiao Liu's forehead was covered with black lines again, but he quickly suppressed them. He put his hands together and silently chanted the Heart Purification Mantra in his heart, "To pass the Intermediate Appraiser of All Attributes, just go to the right. There is only one door, so please feel free to choose."

Damn it, you are making fun of me here. If you can pass the exam, I will take your surname and then drink your foot washing water while standing upside down!

Zi Mu naturally had no idea of ​​the cursing and mockery that Xiao Liu was feeling in his heart. Instead, he thought that this staff member was stupid and quite interesting.

"Okay, okay, thank you, Master~"

Zi Mu clasped his hands together, bowed to Xiao Liu, and ran inside.

“I didn’t expect there is Buddhism in this world!”

The corridor on the right was not long. As soon as he stepped into the entrance, Zi Mu saw several numbered doors. The door numbers on them were all green, so they must be vacant testing points.

"It's you!"

Zi Mu was lazy to begin with, and was in a hurry, so he naturally chose the nearest test door, which was the one with "1" printed on it.

"Verification passed, welcome trainer: Zimu."

The scanner of his illustrated book at the door handle stopped for a moment, and a mechanical voice came into Zi Mu's ears.

"Oh, that's pretty advanced."

I have to say that the technological level of this elf world is much more advanced than that of the previous life, otherwise it would not be possible to create elf balls that can control powerful elves.

"Hello, is anyone there?"

After Zi Mu stepped into the door, he was not attracted by the decoration of the test point, but shouted.

It’s not that Zi Mu isn’t curious, but although this testing site is large, it only has some simple instruments, so Zi Mu really doesn’t have much to see.

"Hello! Young trainer!"

Just as Zi Mu was wandering in the test space, a group of elf telekinesis was captured by Zi Mu's dream energy.

That's right, although Zi Mu looks nonchalant, he still takes this test very seriously. As soon as he entered the door, he wrapped his entire head with dreamy energy.

"Ok?"

Zi Mu stopped, raised his head and looked around, but did not find any trace of elves.

"Trainer, let me introduce myself. I am your proctor - 001. I was created by the instrument, so you don't need to look for me."

After hearing this, Zi Mu's eyes relaxed. Since it was not an elf, the dream energy naturally could not find the elf's body. Just now, when he had been searching for a long time without finding it, he thought that the dream energy had changed.

"Hello, can you understand me?"

Although he knew that the elf telekinesis did not come from the elves, he thought it was also a step in the test, so Zi Mu quickly got into the rhythm.

"Yes, Trainer. Since you can understand my words, you have passed the first level of the test. Next, I will introduce you to the next three levels."

"Second level: Find 18 elves according to the different elf telekinesis groups I send out. Requirements: Strictly follow my instructions, and each elf should not receive more than 3 errors.

Level 18: Identify the approximate data of elves and select the elves with the best and worst qualifications. Requirements: The accuracy of qualification identification must not exceed one level. For example, level A can be determined as A+ or A-, but not S- or B+.

Fourth level: Record the detailed data of 18 Pokémons into a blank disc like an atlas. Requirements: Make the description reasonable and distinguish between the main Pokémon and the individual Pokémons. The results will be judged by the professional appraisers of the alliance.

"Hmm..." After hearing the content of the test, Zi Mu scratched his head and fell into a brief thought.

This... how come it looks so much like a primary school student's question... Look, the first level is word recognition, the second level is connecting the dots, the third level is filling in the blanks, and the fourth level is writing...

"Okay, I understand. Can we start the second level now?"

The assessment for this intermediate appraiser was not difficult, and was even simpler than Zi Mu had imagined, so it made Zi Mu more confident.

"It's OK, trainer." A telekinesis ball was translated by the dream energy again, "Please retreat to the entrance to start the second level of the test."

After hearing its instructions, Zi Mu slowly took a few steps back. He had already walked around the house, so his current position was not far away.

"You are the youngest trainer I have ever tested! I look forward to your performance."

When Zi Mu just retreated to the door, the familiar elf's telekinesis disappeared, and the furnishings in the room changed into another appearance like Transformers. If he could describe it... a full sense of technology?

In front of Zi Mu's eyes, all the furnishings and machines disappeared into the floor and walls. Looking around, this space, which was not small to begin with, looked even more spacious.

"What...what is this beating?"

Although Zi Mu had some guesses about the scene before him, he still couldn't figure it out.

The second level is a connection question, find 6 elves...

Please! There is not even a mosquito in this room! !

"Question 1: Go two squares north."

Just as Zi Mu was standing there blankly doing nothing, a strange elven telekinesis was once again absorbed by the dream energy and fed back into his mind.

Hiss...what is this?

In Zi Mu's mind, the spirit telekinesis fed back by the dream energy this time was different from the telekinesis group just now. The telekinesis group last time was simply a completely fuzzy machine, but this time, after the feedback of the dream energy, the telekinesis group actually had a prototype in Zi Mu's mind. However, because he only sensed one sentence, he could only sense a faint fire element energy...

Never mind, let’s go for a walk first!

Zi Mu looked at his feet, and his thoughts, which had been completely confused about the test questions, suddenly became clear!

“Don’t step on the black blocks?”

Under Zimu's feet, or in other words, the floor tiles of this test space, each tile has an area of ​​about 1 square meter, with a distance of about 10 centimeters between each tile, and the dividing line is very clear.

Zi Mu walked forward two squares slowly. Although he was almost certain, he still needed to be careful. Of course, he didn't need to be careful about taking the wrong path, but he needed to be careful that if his foot slipped and stepped on the dividing line or other squares, it would not be worth it.

"Luckily I'm not a directionally challenged person. If it was Xier..."

Su Xier wasn't completely directionally challenged, as she knew the directions ahead, behind, left and right. However...when it came to east, west, south, and north, her head felt like it was wearing a tight hoop and she couldn't figure it out no matter how hard she tried.

"Question 1, step 2: Go east four squares."

When Zi Mu arrived at the location required in the first step, the tiles under his feet suddenly lit up like a music floor, flashing a dazzling fiery red light.

"This is..."

With the second telekinetic feedback, Zimu sensed this fire spirit more clearly. Judging from its shape... it seemed to be an upright spirit...

"This... looks like a monkey, not sure... let's take a look."

Don't have too many upright fire elves. It would be too reckless to want to determine the answer to the first question based on this. The prompts are not over yet. You can wait for a few more feedbacks before confirming it.

"Question 1, step 3: Go north three squares."

The familiar fiery red light came from under his feet again, and this time Zi Mu felt the feedback energy ball more clearly.

monkey?

"From the looks of it... it should be a monkey. First of all, let's rule out the possibility that it's not a Daruma baboon... a fire monkey... a little flame monkey? Or a blasting monkey..."

In his heart, Zi Mu was trying to figure out the elves that were fed back by the dream energy. Although he was familiar with all the elves, he could only think of these two fire monkeys at the moment. He hoped it was one of these two... If it was any other, writing the fourth level would be a big hassle.

"Question 1, step 4: Go two squares east."

The energy ball was fed back again, and this time, Zi Mu finally confirmed it!

"It's really you!"

After identifying this Pokémon, Zi Mu recalled its illustrated information in his mind while following the prompts and took a few steps. Finally, when he took the eighth step, the familiar prompt sound changed.

"Congratulations to Trainer Zimu for completing the first question of the first level!"

As soon as he finished speaking, the fiery red floor under Zi Mu's feet suddenly rose 2m, and a 2m*1m machine appeared in the space.

"Trainer, please jump one square to the west to check the Pokémon."

After hearing the instructions from the ability team, Zi Mu felt relieved and jumped down.

"Emma, ​​this is just like when I was taking my driver's license test. Even though I know how to do it, I really don't dare to move unless I hear the prompts!"

The test of the all-attribute elf appraiser may be very difficult for others, but it is not difficult for Zimu, it's just the process...

"It's a bit torturous. No wonder intermediate appraisers with all attributes are so rare. There are so many questions, and I have never had such trouble writing a test paper before!"

After landing on the ground, Zi Mu clapped his hands impatiently and looked at the elf being raised in the trainer in front of him without any surprise.

"Hello, Explosive Monkey!"

Touching his chin, Zi Mu concentrated the dream energy from his forehead to the bottom of his eyes, and observed the Explosive Monkey through the glass plate.

"Level 17... female, gluttonous, stubborn, aptitude... C-."

Under Zi Mu's dreamy energy surveillance, the Exploding Fragrance Monkey was like wearing no clothes, and all the data was taken in by Zi Mu.

"Okay, let's leave it at that for now. I have to come back later anyway." Concentrating the dream energy on his forehead again, Zi Mu yawned and spoke to the air, "Okay, let's continue."

"Level 2, Question 2: Go west..."

...

"Congratulations to the trainer: Zimu, who has completed all the questions in the second level of the intermediate appraiser test. Score: 98 points, passed."

Ahem, why is it 98 points instead of 100 points? You have to ask our handsome boy Zi Mu. How did he listen to the east and walk to the west? I don’t know anything.

"Damn it, I just made a mistake!" Looking at his final score, Zi Mu couldn't help but rub his forehead and thought to himself, "Okay, I won't laugh at Xier anymore."

"Next, we will proceed to the third level. In this level, trainers can move freely. They must identify the specific values ​​of the 18 Pokémon and find the two Pokémon with the worst and best qualifications. Time limit: 180 minutes."

After hearing the feedback from the telekinesis team, Zi Mu was stunned and a little confused about 180 minutes.

Oh my god? This took 180 minutes? This shouldn't have taken 18 seconds? I'm afraid they won't catch me for research...

After a period of inner struggle, Zi Mu decided to keep a low profile, just act a little, and not attract too much attention.

Little did he know that after he passed the first level, many high-level members of the Tianhai City Alliance came to the alliance's monitoring room one after another to watch Zi Mu's assessment. When Zi Mu scored 98 points in the second level, everyone was stunned. Now even if he wanted to keep a low profile, it was difficult!

"let's start..."

Zi Mu let out a long sigh, then slowly walked towards the fragrant monkey that he had just identified first.

Each of these 18 elves has different attributes, and their levels and qualifications also fluctuate greatly. The qualifications and level of the Explosive Monkey are both mediocre. The reason why Zimu chose it first is mainly because it is the closest...

"I have to act now. Luckily, I watched the identification method of the uncle who met Xinghui before I came here..."

Thinking of this, Zimu suddenly realized something, raised his head and looked around, his eyes narrowed slightly...

"Oh? It looks familiar..."
