Pokémon Memories and Journeys

Chapter 9 Starting Point

Footsteps sounded in this research room.A faint light came in from the window, and the girl walked skillfully towards the depths of the research room, with a chill in her eyes.

The girl came to the door at the end of the corridor and knocked lightly: "Dr. Omu." This was a crisp and childish voice.

But there was no reply from the room.A cold smile appeared on the girl's lips.

"Creak" the door was opened.The not-so-large room was equipped with several computers and some puzzling high-end machines.The screen displayed dense data, and there was an old man lying in front of him, motionless as if he was dead.

The room was filled with a rotten smell that came from nowhere.The floor was a mess, with papers everywhere.

The black-haired girl came to the old man's side, pushed him, and called: "Dr. Omu."

The person lying on the table still didn't respond.His hands rested on the keyboard, as if the old man was still sorting out data before he fell.

The girl pushed him twice more, but saw that the old man had no reaction.She closed the door she had just opened.

The girl approached the old man again and said, "Cough, cough." The girl adjusted her voice.His mouth almost touched the old man's ear.The room was silent for another second, and the girl took a deep breath.

"Dr. Big Wood"

"Ahhhhhhhh"

In the early morning, people in this small town are still sleeping.The faint light in the sky expanded little by little.

The surrounding bird Pokémon began to announce the morning.It can be seen that today will be a good weather day.

Research room.

Dr. Omu patted his chest and sighed: "Hey, I almost had a heart attack."

The girl walked to the window and opened it, and the fresh air finally came in: "You deserve this. Who told you to sleep so soundly. I kindly asked you to wake up, okay?"

"Lilith, you are committing murder. You really don't understand. Really, you are not as gentle as your mother at all."

"Ha, you said that woman is gentle." Lilith rolled her eyes at Dr. Omu, "I haven't seen her for a long time, why don't you invite her?"

"Hey, no, no, no, you're going to suffer again if you let her come to my laboratory." There was no time when Anna came that she didn't make the whole town restless.

Lilith looked around at the messy environment in the room.A cross sign appeared on Lilith's forehead: "By the way, I remember I just came here to clean it a week ago."

"Well, this is a misunderstanding." Dr. Omu also looked around guiltily.

Lilith slapped the table: "The instant noodles are all Dr. Instant Noodles, can't you have a good meal?" Lilith cleaned up the instant noodles piled everywhere, "It's okay to eat instant noodles, anyway, you can Can you clean it up yourself?"

Dr. Omu shrank his neck guiltily: "Isn't it still you? Haha"

"Please" Lilith put her hands on her hips: "Don't you have a granddaughter and a grandson? They are too lazy to care about you. If Sister Nana hadn't personally asked me to ask for her help, I would have gone on strike long ago."

"Okay, okay. You usually have nothing to do, so I'm helping you find something to do, hahaha." Dr. Omu touched his head and smiled stupidly.

"You really have the nerve to say it." Lilith sighed, "So why did you find me today?"

"Eh"

"What? What I'm talking about is, you told me yesterday to come to your laboratory early in the morning. What's going on?" Lilith put her hands on her waist and asked Dr. Omu.

"Oh, it seems to have happened for a while."

Lilith held her forehead: "Also, Dr. Omu." Lilith pointed to the unfinished bowl of instant noodles on the table: "Don't eat instant noodles while you can still do research and then fall asleep. The room is full of odor and disgusting. Eh"

Dr. Oki scratched his head: "I'm really sorry. I have a research project recently, hahaha."

After some time, Lilith finished sorting out the last bag of garbage in the room and said, "Sure enough, I was asked to do all these things in the end." She wiped the sweat from her forehead.

However, Dr. Omu is actually not in a good mood now.After having fun in the morning, it’s time to get to the point.

In fact, what Dr. Ohki worries most about is not the research report.He recently received a report from the World Alliance. However, this report was about Lilith.

Dr. Oak took out a document from the drawer, she glanced at Lilith, and finally sighed helplessly.The decision of the World Alliance is not something he can organize.He thought Lilith waved.

"Lilith, I want to discuss this with you." Dr. Omu's face no longer had the joking look on his face.

Finished the last bag of trash.Lilith had long expected that it would not be easy for Dr. Oak to call her today, and she came to Dr. Oak with the same seriousness.He handed the document in his hand to Lilith.

"Lilith, I want to talk to you about the disaster three years ago."

Lilith was stunned for a moment at first.Take the file.His eyes became darker and darker next, and he couldn't help but clenched his fists.She didn't expect that this would be the topic

The red sky, the sun was blocked by black and red clouds, there was lightning and thunder, and then, red blood, incomplete corpses, whines, despair, crying, and biting sounds.Every scene of despair and death hurts Lilith's heart and will never go away.

The whereabouts of her brother and sister are still unknown, and Lilith will not believe that they are dead.Dad still hasn't appeared.My mother travels all over the world for work.

In that incident, even if those who experienced it managed to escape from the Gurul area, within a week, their whole bodies were covered in ulcers, and they turned into smoke in the end.Only Lily survived without any damage. The alliance and major doctors showed that this had a lot to do with Lilith's ability. Lilith's ability can withstand the "devouring" power.

There are some people with special abilities in the world, but they are very few. Their data and DNA are regarded as S-class confidential documents by the World Alliance.

And Lilith's ability is truly unique, so the Alliance pays more attention to it.Only a few people at the top of the World Alliance have read Lilith's DNA report.

Lilith is still underage, and it is the Alliance's responsibility to protect her from making her abilities public.Therefore, Lilith's reputation is only limited to the Gurul area, and news from other areas is completely blocked.Now the Gurul area is completely deserted, which means that Lilith is just an ordinary 10-year-old boy now.

Three years have passed until now, and time has diluted the memory of the world. Lilith has lived as an ordinary person in this Zhenxin town in the Kanto region for three years.

"So this is what happened, Lilith. In recent years, the alliance's detectors have detected a force. This force is very secretive and only appears for a moment. We have spent a lot of effort to capture this force. Now this force The power has received the attention of the World Alliance and the major elf alliances. Now that we have gathered the wisdom of all alliances, we have finally captured a small part of this power. Each alliance has sent the best scientists and doctors to track down Three years later, I discovered that this power comes from the Pokémon that protect various regions, that is, the mythical beasts. But the strange thing is that I finally found out where the source of the power comes from. But I continued to trace and found that this power has no trace, as if it disappeared out of thin air. That’s it.”

Dr. Oak glanced at Lilith's expression: "And this power is exactly the same as the energy fluctuation of the tragedy in your hometown three years ago. It comes from time to time every year."

Lilith flipped through the document and put it down silently, her voice choked up at one point: "What do they mean?"

"The alliance now names this energy "Swallowing". Now the Alliance really has no way to fight against "Swallowing". They can only find your files and information and want to ask for your help. Although they know that you are still Just a 10-year-old kid."

"Tell me the point, what do they want me to do?"

Dr. Ohmu sighed: "Now the alliance has given you two ways to go. 1. Accept the alliance's systematic training. They will cultivate your physique and ability enough to compete with that force. 2. Let you exercise on your own. You must do it within 5 years. To win the Pokémon Contest.”

Dr. Omu also knows that this requirement is difficult, but both Omu and Lilith know the alliance's training methods.So whoever is asked to choose will choose the second option, which is that the alliance gives Lilith the opportunity to take care of her.

"Do they think I'm some kind of machine or a tool they use? I have no intention of saving the world."

"But you have to think clearly that your DNA is in the hands of the alliance. If you violate it, who knows what they will do."

"I remember they said they would permanently seal my information later, so the alliance has no credibility."

"Because this incident has become somewhat serious, a recent energy fluctuation has caused Pokémon in a certain area to become collectively violent in a short period of time. According to calculations, if there is no way to deal with it, there will be a natural disaster in the world in at most 20 years. So the alliance I need your help."

"What if I say no"

Dr. Omu took a breath and said: "You have to know that after that incident, the few survivors in the Gurul area have all suffered from the same disease and lost consciousness in the past three years. You can sleep now Lilith, you are the only survivor. Moreover, you are the "chosen child of God".

Lilith smiled to herself: "Haha, it's really ridiculous." Lilith laughed at her so-called title. "Dr. Oak, you have to know that I will never trust those so-called "man's best friends" Pokémon again. Now I have no interest in Pokémon at all."

The Son of God, and the Son of God.He clearly knew that he was not who they said he was.There is no such thing as the Son of God in the world.This name brought her so many disasters, and Lilith hated this title.

"But you must have been training for your ability for the past three years."

"I trained my abilities just to protect myself and my family." Lilith was not surprised that Dr. Oak knew about this. "This is also to prepare for finding my brother and sister."

"That ability of yours has been given the name "Power of God" by the Alliance. The Alliance will not give this name casually."

"It's so boring. I never thought that this ability would be given such a vulgar name."

"The truth is cruel"

"Will mom allow you to do this? Mom has a lot of trust in you."

"Anna has no control over this matter. There is no written clause in the contract. This is also Anna's mistake."

"Is that true? I've been under house arrest by you for three years. I don't know anything about what's going on outside. Now I'm suddenly asked to face it."

Dr. Oak knew that Lilith was dissatisfied, but there was nothing he could do. "But you should also know that your powers are hugely tied to Pokémon. I don't think you can completely despair of Pokémon."

"You won't understand." Lilith thought of the bloody scene again, "We humans will betray Pokémon. And Pokémon will not give in forever, and it is probably only a matter of time before Pokémon loses control."

"Lilith, I also know that it's not easy for you. But you have to think clearly. This matter may finally give you the answer you have been looking for for three years. The Alliance sincerely requests your help."

Dr. Oak looked at Lilith quietly: "Besides, you should also really want to find the truth."

Lilith has been worried about this for the past three years.Not only did she herself become more proficient in mastering her innate abilities.Her mother Anna also hired a professional martial arts coach for her, and Lilith's current individual value is quite impressive.

Lilith also tried to find clues in her spare time, but this town blocked the source of all clues.

Zhenxin Town is just an ordinary town.People here also live and work in peace and contentment and lead ordinary lives.This kind of life also makes people comfortable, and basically does not cause any worries.It even achieves the function of cultivating the body and mind.

Lilith also found inner comfort here, which allowed her to gradually let go of the disaster she saw three years ago. 3 years is neither long nor short.But the amount of information in 3 years is very huge.In the process of cultivation, it also really hindered Lilith from paying attention to the news of the world.

Anna seems to have arranged it intentionally, which is the best for Lilith herself.It's just that Lilith doesn't want to stop in this small town. She also wants to explore. She wants to find her brother and sister whose life or death is uncertain, and she has a desire to find out in her heart.

Occasionally, Hanako would take Lilith to Joban City to buy items.

Lilith was also troubled in her heart. She didn't want to touch the pain in her heart.I also want to reunite with my brothers and sisters.

Dr. Oak's expression was also very serious. Lilith hadn't seen Dr. Oak like this for a long time.Dr. Omu has always been very gentle to Lilith. It seems that this time the matter is serious.

"Hey, Dr. Omu, you want me to go, right?" If you don't become a trainer, you will be arrested by the alliance for systematic training, so there is no other training.

Dr. Oki also felt sorry for this girl. She was as old as his grandson but had experienced so many things.Moreover, her family was destroyed by the disaster, and all that was left was her mother, whom she saw only a few times a year.Even so, this child is still so cheerful.

Dr. Oak hesitated. Indeed, he also wanted to let Lilith travel. Unfortunately, this trip was forced by the alliance.The superiors have put pressure on him, and if he relies on his majesty in academia, he may have a chance.At least this girl can live a quiet life for a few years.

Lilith doesn't like to peek into other people's hearts, even Pokémon's.Just looking at Dr. Omu's expression, I almost guessed what he was saying: "Doctor, if you have mercy on me, forget it."

"Hey, you kid, you have guessed it." Dr. Omu knew Lilith's ability, and occasionally asked Lilith to act as a translator.Of course, I also know that what Lilith is good at is seeing through the heart.His expression just now revealed too much, and Lilith must have noticed it.

"I have figured it out in the past three years. I was lucky enough to survive that disaster. Besides, my mother is still here, and my brothers and sisters may not be dead. I have made friends since I came here. I There’s nothing else I can’t satisfy.”

"You're right to think so. If you really don't want to have contact with Pokémon anymore, actually I"

Lilith interrupted Dr. Omu: "Dr. Omu, although your status is very high, you can't compete with the alliance. Even if I escape, I will find a way on my own."

Dr. Oak thought Lilith cast an eager look.Should she go or not?

Lilith also felt uncomfortable being looked at: "Hey, Dr. Omu, you are also a member of the alliance. Will the alliance give me a chance to say that I don't want to participate?"

Thinking of her missing brothers and sisters, and her father who her mother had never mentioned in three years, Lilith really wanted to believe that Pokémon were kind, but the bloody scene three years ago still lingered in Lilith's mind. go.

Although the Gurul area has always existed, there is no news at all, as if this land disappeared out of thin air.

"Why do the kind elves suddenly become manic? What is the power of "devouring"? The incident of elves going berserk is so serious, but why do I never hear from people discussing it when I come to the Kanto region? This matter. Where did my father, whom I seldom see, go after that disaster?" These questions have troubled Lilith's mind for many years.

Because that disaster made Lilith's mind a little higher than that of an ordinary 10-year-old child. She might not be able to reach full maturity, but she could at least consider things accurately and calmly.

The decision in Lilith's heart became more and more firm as she thought deeply.

"You've made up your mind"

"I think the alliance should give me some benefits."

"Don't worry, they are still very generous in this regard. They will definitely give you considerable privileges after a while."

Lilith raised the corners of her lips, privilege, this is a good thing.Having privileges means you can use manpower and material resources.

Lilith thought to herself: "It's just mutual benefit."

Lilith thought for a few more minutes: "Okay, I agree."
