Pokémon Researcher Road

Chapter 185

Chapter 185

After the gymnasium competition, Xuanjian did not leave Nibi City immediately, but went to the stone market in Nibi City and bought some precious elven fossils.Although I am not interested in those ancient Pokémon, Xuanjian knows that the fossil resurrection technology will be successfully developed in the near future. At that time, the price of fossils will inevitably rise sharply.However, although the real value of fossils has not been discovered yet, fossils have certain value after all, so the streets are full of fakes.In the end, Xuanjian only got one real fossil, and there was no trace of the imaginary fossil pterosaur at all.

However, Xuanjian was not too depressed, after all, fossils are not Chinese cabbage, they are everywhere.After leaving the stone market, Xuanjian embarked on the road to Hualan City.While passing through a very famous mountain in Guandu—Yuejian Mountain, Xuan Jian encountered some small troubles unexpectedly.

Yuejian Mountain is a famous moon stone producing area in Kanto. It is said that there is a large piece of moon stone formed by a giant meteorite on this mountain, which is a very precious treasure.This legend has not been confirmed, but it is true that the mountain is rich in moonstones.Xuanjian doesn't have much interest in Moonstone, and doesn't intend to explore the mountain, but things don't always go as expected, and Xuanjian is stopped by someone on the road.

"Hello, I'm Li Ke, researcher. May I ask you, Mr. Xuanjian?" A young man with eyes in a white coat was blocking Xuanjian's way, looking a little dumbfounded.

"No, you're looking for the wrong person!" Xuanjian sized up the other person, feeling that if he told the truth, there would be trouble coming to his door, he decisively lied, then turned around and prepared to leave.

"You must be." Seeing that Xuanjian was about to leave, the other party swooped and hugged Xuanjian's thigh, "I have seen your photo, and the information I bought said that you are carrying a black fox Pokémon!"

"Hehe, you read it wrong." Xuanma signaled Zoroya, who was lying on his shoulders, to hide, while trying to break free, but he didn't expect that the other party hugged him so tightly that he couldn't break free at all.

"I'm not mistaken, it's you—Xuanjian, the youngest researcher in Guandu, you took away my promotion quota last year, I won't admit my mistake!"

Hearing the other party's words, Xuanjian frowned. There is a fixed number of quotas for promotion every year. If he suddenly rises, someone will definitely lose his quota.But I'm not wrong about this kind of thing, this guy came here to make trouble!

"That's right, I'm Xuanjian, what do you want to do?" Xuanjian clasped the Pokéball around his waist with one hand, "The promotion and evaluation is for those who are capable first, and I can't decide anything. If you want trouble, you have found the wrong person!" If you are here to make trouble, I don't mind teaching you a lesson.

Seemingly aware of the malice in Xuanjian's tone, the young man shrank his shoulders, but still hugged Xuanjian's thigh tightly, and said, "I know, I don't blame you, I am useless."

"Then what do you want to do?" Xuanjian didn't relax his vigilance, but continued to ask.

"Please take me in and guide me to carry out research!" The young man let go of Xuanjian's thigh, slammed his head heavily on the ground, and said, "I became a trainee researcher at the age of 14, and it has been nine years now, and I haven't been promoted yet. You are the youngest researcher in history, please accept me as your assistant!"

Xuan Jian looked at the sunken ground, and the corners of his mouth twitched, isn't this guy a fool?

Becoming a trainee researcher at the age of 14 is not that old, but what the hell is it that he failed to advance to a researcher after nine years?Although there is a quota limit, it is not difficult for a researcher to be promoted as long as he has enough papers. If he has not been promoted for nine years, it is no less difficult than his own promotion in one year!For trainee researchers, the remuneration given by the alliance is actually much higher than the value they can create. The alliance invests in their potential, but the alliance cannot tolerate them. Therefore, it is stipulated that if they fail to complete the promotion within ten years, they will lose their qualifications. That is to say, the guy in front of him has the last year of opportunity. No wonder he will find himself.

Thinking of this, Xuanjian refused: "Thank you for your kindness, but I'm sorry, I already have someone to choose!" This is not a lie, the researcher can accept an assistant recognized by the alliance, but he already has someone to choose, and it is Abu who met when he was traveling in the Orange Islands.According to Xia Bo’s feedback, Abu, who studied with Yado, performed very well and would be a good assistant. There was no need for him to abandon Abu and replace him with a guy who hadn’t been promoted for nine years.

"Ah!" Hearing Xuan Jian's words, the other party was stunned, and then said: "It's okay, I don't occupy the quota of the alliance, I have my own salary, as long as you let me stay by your side!"

Xuan Jian shook his head: "Sorry, I'm not used to having a stranger by my side." The other party's purpose should be to stay by his side to study. This kind of situation is very common, and most people would not refuse, but I have many secrets about me, so it is not suitable to bring a stranger with me.

"Sure enough, if I fail to advance this year, I will be disqualified as a trainee researcher. This is all your fault, and you have to be responsible for me! So you have to promise me no matter what you have to do today!" As he spoke, the young man took out a poke ball: "Come on, Pippi, let the other party see our power!"

"..." At this time, shouldn't we beg hard, understand it with affection, and move it with reason?Why did the painting style suddenly change?But I don't mind if I fight: "Come on, electric shock monster!"

"Pippi, Comet Fist!"

"Electric Shock Monster, Thunder Fist!"

The two elves were about the same size, but compared to the cute Pippi, the electric shock monster was obviously much stronger. The fists of the two elves collided without fancy, and for a while, lightning flashed.But what is surprising is that the electric shock monster was repelled by Pippi.

"Huh?" Xuanjian looked at the electric shock monster whose arm was twitching continuously, obviously suffering a lot of damage, and was a little bit surprised.The two elves are about the same level, but the electric shock monster is stronger, and has been trained in fighting, so it doesn't make sense to be repelled!

"Haha, have you seen my strength?" Seeing Xuanjian's doubts, the young man smiled proudly.

Xuan Jian took a look at Pippi. Apart from the radiance on the surface of the elf, which proves that this elf has been well bred, its body is still the round shape of a normal Pippi. There is no reason to have such a strong power, unless——

"Your Pippi carries the life gem, right?"

"Uh, how do you know? This is my secret tactic!" The young man didn't deny it, but was surprised how Xuanjian saw through his tactic so quickly.

"Your Pippi's muscles are not well-developed. To be able to play a stronger physical attack than my electric shock monster, it can only be due to the characteristics and props." As for any secret tactics, as long as the system allows it, players in the previous life have never explored any gameplay!

"As expected of the youngest researcher, the insight is really extraordinary, but I will not admit defeat. Pippi, comet fist again!"

Knowing the opponent's tactics, Xuanjian didn't choose to knock hard, but ordered: "Electric shock monster, avoid it, and then use [-] volts!"

Compared with Pippi, the electric shock monster itself is much faster, not to mention that Xuanjian's electric shock monster has also received special training.With a slight leap, Pippi's comet punched nothing, leaving only a crater on the ground.Then a dazzling electric light leaped from the Electroshock Monster, hitting Pippi who couldn't dodge, and under the attack of [-] volts, Pippi collapsed powerlessly.

Seeing Pippi fall, the other party was a little panicked, and immediately ran over, ignoring the residual electric current on Pippi, and hugged Pippi in his arms: "Pippi, are you okay?"

"Although the life gem improves the physical attack of the elf, it does not increase its speed. For physical attackers, speed is very important. If you can't hit it, it is a waste of work! And you are too inexperienced in combat. When the opponent doesn't understand your tactics, you should go all out immediately." Xuanjian looked at the opponent, commented, and was about to leave.

Seemingly being hit by Pippi's defeat, the young man didn't stop Xuanjian from leaving, but kept taking out various medicines and feeding them to Pippi.However, when Xuanjian walked past him, he suddenly noticed a uniquely shaped bracelet on his wrist when he was taking the potion.

"what's your name?"

"Ah?" Xuanjian, who obviously didn't know why he was leaving, suddenly asked this question, but he still replied, "My name is Xiangta, a trainee researcher at Nibi City Science and Technology Museum."

"I'm asking about your surname." The surname in this world represents the family, and most people separate it from the first name, and don't often talk about it.

"Sylph."

Sure enough, Xuanjian nodded secretly, he did not remember wrongly, the other party's bracelet was a bracelet that only members of the famous Silver family could have, it was a symbol of their status.

"Are you really a member of the Silver family? Don't you have the same name?" Xuanma asked suspiciously. As we all know, the Silver company named after the Silver family has developed products such as elf balls and skill learning machines that have had a huge impact on the entire world.If it's really a member of the Silver family, there's no reason to be so miserable!

Hearing Xuanjian's words, Xiangta immediately jumped up, and said in a menacing manner: "You can doubt my ability, but you can't doubt my identity! I am a member of the Silver family. Although it is only a separated family, this is unquestionable! I work in the Science and Technology Museum of Nibi City, where I can prove my identity!"

Xuan Jian nodded, it turned out that the family was separated, no wonder they were able to run around, otherwise how could it be possible for a son to live outside with Silver's urination that was passed down from generation to generation.However, even if the family is separated, it is unscientific to be so miserable!

"What's your research topic?" A trainee researcher with an extraordinary family background and affiliated with the Science and Technology Museum can easily make up enough papers!

"Origin of Pokémon."

"..." No wonder there are not enough papers. There are still different opinions on the origin of Pokémon.Dare to study this kind of subject just by getting started, and only you local tyrants dare to play like this!However, so to speak, this person's ability is not as low as previously thought!

"I think Pokémon are alien visitors, and Yuejian Mountain is a famous meteorite ruin, so I have been looking for evidence here, but I have not gained much except for meeting Pippi. People in the family are also gradually looking down on me, what should I do!" Saying this, Shota lowered his head in frustration, and Pippi, who had already woken up, patted Shota's shoulder lightly to comfort him.

"Um, it's hard to get a good result on this topic," Xuanjian comforted, "And it's too narrow to study only in Yuejianshan, why don't you travel with me! Maybe you can find more evidence!"

Shota looked at Genma in surprise, not knowing why the other party changed his attention: "Is it okay?"

"Of course," Xuan Jian nodded, "but I'm rather shy in my pocket, so I can't help you with the travel expenses!"

"It doesn't matter!" Xiangta waved his hand, and suddenly a strong aura of local tyrants came to his face: "I am from the Silver family, and I can't lack money for anything! I will cover the travel expenses, and just tell me what props you need!"

I've been waiting for your words, really, if I said that earlier, it would be over, and I wasted most of my time!It seems that the legend about the small population of the Silver family, so each clan member can get a lot of resources is true!But for such a family, if a little bit of it is revealed between the fingers, it will be enough for ordinary people to eat for a long time!

Constantly reminding himself to be reserved, Xuanjian stretched out his hand to Shota: "Welcome to my team, Shota!"

Xiangta held the hand that Xuanma stretched out: "Please take care of me!"

"Well, you too." After shaking hands, the two let go, Xuan Jian asked: "Shota, do you need to pack your luggage?"

"No need," Xiangta shook his head. "Before, I was camping on Mount Tsukimi. Apart from some daily necessities, there were only some unimportant props such as skill learning machines in the camp. I carried all the research materials with me! It's too troublesome to go back and clean up. We should be able to reach Hualan City before it gets dark. We should just buy new ones then!"

Xuanjian was a little speechless when he heard such arrogant words, but he was a little greedy for the skill learning machine that the other party said, and he had an idea, and said: "It's okay, I will accompany you to clean up! If you throw things there, it will have a bad effect. What if people misunderstand that the camper is missing? Isn't this causing trouble for Miss Junsha? Let's go back and clean up!"

"But it will take a long time to clean up, and we won't be able to reach Hualan City before dark."

"It's okay," Xuanjian waved his hand and said, "I'm bringing a tent, I can camp. And I haven't visited Mount Moon yet, so I can take this opportunity to visit it! Can you be my tour guide?"

"Of course it's no problem. I know Tsukimisan very well." Shota said, then stared at Xuanma for a while, and then asked Xuanma, "You suddenly changed your mind and invited me to travel together. It's so strange! You don't have any intentions, do you?"

"Hahaha," Xuanjian scratched his forehead, covered the embarrassment on his face with his arms, and said, "Why, I was just moved by your love for Pippi! And I didn't expect you to study such a lofty subject as the origin of elves. I really admire it! If you explain this from the beginning, I will definitely take you in immediately!"

"Is that so?" Xiangta was a little puzzled!

"That's right," Xuanjian nodded: "Shota, you must be too obsessed with research and lack of social interaction, so you can't communicate with others, and you can't grasp the key points of communication!" And it is easy to be deceived!

Xiangta nodded: "That's true. I have been doing research with Pippi alone all this time, and I rarely interact with others. Forget it, anyway, Pippi also said that it thinks you are a good person, and you should not harm me!"

"Haha, of course..."

　As the main character of diaosi, one must have a companion, not necessarily fat, but must be rich!
