Pokémon: Chosen Ranger

"These apples are really sweet, you think so too, don't you think so, monkey?"

Xia Ye held a bitten apple in his hand. The fruits on the apple tree in front of him were full of luster, red and very attractive.

"Boom~"

The monkey made a happy sound and enjoyed eating the apple in his hand. It was crisp, juicy and sweet like honey.

"Sure enough, planting this apple tree is the right choice." Xia Ye took another bite of the apple and tasted it carefully. The sweetness of this apple is higher than the sweet apples in Caolu Town. If it is made into jam, it will definitely very nice.

"Let's pick some later and give them to everyone in Spike Town, um, especially Mr. Nie Zi." Xia Ye, who was eating apples, thought of the miserable situation of Nie Zi eating three sour apples in a row. Even such sweet apples could only Make up for half of his sorrow.

[The distortion of time and space will begin in two hours, please be prepared. 】

"Well, the time left this time is quite sufficient." Xia Ye finished the apple in a few mouthfuls, "Let's go, Pa Dong Monkey, let's go back to the wooden house first, and then go to the Misty Lake. The distortion of time and space is about to begin again. .”

"Boom~"

This time the time and space is distorted. Xia Ye plans to take Pa Dong Monkey and Menas with her. The skirt ladies are now practicing on the hot rocks, so it’s better not to disturb them.

In the Misty Lake, Menas felt Xia Ye's arrival and poked his head out of the lake.

"Woo~" it made a cry of joy.

Menas's complexion is even better now than at Menas Lake. Thinking of this, Xia Ye handed a red fruit to it.

"Come and taste this apple. It's very sweet."

"Woo~"

Menas stretched out his head gracefully and took a bite. Mmm~ It’s so sweet~ Then his eyes lit up and he quickly turned the apple into a core.

"It seems you like it very much. I will give it to you later, but the time and space distortion is about to begin. Come with me this time." Xia Ye paused and continued: "Do you still remember our encounter? Well, it’s also thanks to it.”

"Woo~" Menus nodded, and then came to the shore from the lake. Of course it remembered.

"The so-called time and space distortion means that you will travel to a different location from the current time and space, and the scenery will change afterwards. Don't worry." Xia Ye explained the time and space distortion to Menas. After all, this was his first time.

"Woo!"

Then Menas wrapped his body around Xia Ye's body, so he had to get closer. He didn't want to get separated from Xia Ye during the journey.

Xia Ye felt Menas's cold and smooth skin, and then the forest ranger assistant made a voice.

[The distortion of time and space begins. 】

The scenery in front of him changed rapidly. Xia Ye opened his eyes and looked around. The tall and huge trees blocked the sky and the sun, and the light spots flickering at the bottom of the trees gave the originally dark forest a dreamy feeling.

After adapting to the environment, Xia Ye saw the face of the light spot clearly. It was a luminous mushroom, and this kind of mushroom was scattered all around, becoming an important light source in the forest.

Huge ancient trees, no day and night, glowing mushrooms, Xia Ye had a vague guess. Wait, isn't this a forest? Then I can just ask the forest ranger assistant.

[The Blind Forest, a mysterious forest located in northern Galar, has a long history and is home to unique luminous mushrooms. 】

It was indeed the Lost Light Forest. Xia Ye nodded. This was consistent with his guess. The problem was that it was not clear which time period it was now.

However, it feels a lot more peaceful to travel to the forest. At least I don't have to worry about attacks from wild Pokémon. The current situation is much safer than traveling to the Xicui area.

"Ugh?" Menas called softly when he saw Xia Ye was stunned for a long time.

"Huh? Ah, Menas, don't worry, I was just analyzing the current situation." He reached out and touched its head, showing a confident expression: "This is the Lost Light Forest, so don't worry, because I am a ranger. .”

Then, Xia Ye regretted saying these words. They were lost. The Lost Light Forest is complicated and complicated, and you will lose your way if you are not careful. He originally planned to go to Wuzi Town to confirm the current time, but now it seems that it may not be possible. .

"Boom!"

At this time, the Pa Dong Monkey, who was very sensitive to sounds, felt something. Someone seemed to be singing nearby. It made a sound and hurriedly reminded Xia Ye.

"What's wrong, Pa Dong Monkey?" Xia Ye asked. Well, it seems Pa Dong Monkey has discovered something. "I understand, then I'll ask you to lead the way."

"Boom!"

Pa Dong Monkey trotted all the way to the place where the sound came from, Xia Ye and Menas. It was an empty grassland, and a little black-haired girl wearing a top hat sat on the ground, closing her eyes and humming softly.

She was wearing a lavender knitted sweater and a white lace skirt, and her whole person exuded an eccentric aura.

A milky-white Pokémon floated beside her, a little fairy, and the other Pokémon was a pink-blue-and-white little witch named Mybulim.

"Lu la la~ Huh?" The little girl humming opened her eyes, revealing her light blue pupils. She noticed Xia Ye's arrival.

"Ah, first time we meet, big brother, are you lost in the Lost Light Forest?"

"Ah, well that's true." Xia Ye answered a little vaguely. He didn't know why this little girl was so friendly to him. Shouldn't he be vigilant under normal circumstances?

"Do you care about my attitude? Humph~ If my eldest brother is a bad guy, Mibulim will remind me~ Do you know? Mibulim is very sensitive to emotions~" The little girl showed a proud expression.

"Well, Mibulim does have this ability."

"But this just shows that the eldest brother is a good person~" the little girl sat up, "so let me help you~ Do you want to go out~ or are you going to Wuzi Town?"

"I want to go to Dancing Town, please."

"I understand, but I want a reward~" the little girl pointed at Menus, "This beautiful Pokémon must be Menas, I want to touch it!"

Facing the little girl who showed strong curiosity, Xia Ye looked at Menas, who nodded, it doesn't matter.

"I promise you, it's okay."

"That's great~" The little girl clapped her hands happily, then trotted to Menas' side, stretched out her hand, and hummed a tune: "Oh~ it's slippery~ it's cool~ it's so comfortable~"

As if she had touched enough, the little girl retracted her hand, then looked at Snapmonkey and said, "This Pokémon is Snapmonkey. Its drum sound seems to be very distinctive. Brother, can you let it play for a while?" ?”

Pa Dong Monkey took off the wooden stick on his head to express his agreement. Seeing this, Xia Ye took out the wooden drum and placed it in front of Pa Dong Monkey.

"Oh~ and wooden drum~"

"Dong~dong~dong~"

Pa Dong Monkey played a melodious tune. The little girl's eyes lit up and she hummed softly to the rhythm.

At the end of the performance, the little girl showed a satisfied expression.

"Sure enough, Pokémon are amazing~ By the way, I forgot to introduce myself," the little girl lifted up her long skirt and said, "First time we meet~ My name is Popola~"

"My name is Xia Ye, please give me some advice."

Then, he realized something was wrong. What, it was Popola? !
