What if I become an elf?

Chapter 193 Birch Forest

This is a birch forest located north of Qibao City.

The dense emerald green tree crowns are connected together, blocking out the soft morning sunlight shining from above, leaving most areas in the birch forest shrouded in pitch-black darkness.

Also because the Alliance cleaned up the nightmare Pokémon many years ago, although the birch forest at this time was lush with vegetation, it looked strangely lifeless.

Even in the morning when No. [-] Middle School is the most vibrant, the environment is still as quiet as late at night.

"Long"

The roar of the engine grew louder and closer, accompanied by the noisy sound of rolling tires, appearing at the edge of the birch forest.

"It's coming soon, everyone, hurry up and prepare."

As the instructor of the Fighting Gym this time, Rock stood up from his seat and reminded the Pokémon behind him.

"Come on, everyone, bring this."

Rock pulled out a box from under the seat next to him, took out a large number of black wristbands shaped like watches, and distributed them to the Pokémon on the seats.

Lu Yun took it and looked at it carefully in his hand.

A tough wristband made of black rubber with a badge printed with a fighting style pattern in the middle.

"This is"

Lu Yun had some doubts in his heart.

In his ears, Luo Ke's explanation sounded.

"Those who are participating in the summer camp with us this time are the grass-type gyms and flying-type gyms in the city."

"The Pokémon they send out will each be equipped with such a bracelet."

Gradually, Luo Ke's tone became a little lower, which made the noise in the car weaken a lot.

"What you have to do is to seize bracelets from other gyms as much as possible."

"After the third dusk from now on, whichever gym has the most bracelets will be the winner of this summer camp."

"Of course, we will give additional rewards to those Pokémon that contribute more."

The main purpose of Qibao Summer Camp is to allow these elves who are about to graduate from the gym to familiarize themselves with the wild environment they will encounter in the future and adapt to the rhythm of wild combat.

So although winning or losing is important, it is only secondary.

If it were not for the purpose of increasing the motivation of some slack elves in the team, even the additional rewards would not be available.

Hearing this, Lu Yun couldn't help but twitch the corners of his mouth slightly.

"Is this really summer camp?"

“I always feel like I’ve been cheated”

But it didn't matter. After all, Lu Yun didn't really intend to participate in this kind of summer camp activity seriously. He just used it as a springboard to escape from Qibao City, and he was not interested in the so-called rewards at all.

Compared with Lu Yun's impromptu participation, the other Pokémon present, including the bad frog next to him, seemed to have been fully prepared in advance, and there was no look of surprise.

"We're already here, everyone, get off the bus."

The sound of Luo Ke's rough words echoed in the carriage of the bus that had stopped at the same spot.

"The remaining two gyms will enter the forest from other locations, so please be careful."

Amid the urging, the Pokémon in the car walked out of the bus in twos and threes.

Although the Qiba Summer Camp activity does not prohibit team formation, there are strict restrictions on the number of elves in the team.

There can be no more than three Pokémon in a team.

After all, if there are no restrictions and a large number of Pokémon are allowed to fight together, what else will the other Pokémon in the summer camp do?

This will greatly affect the fairness of the competition and is not conducive to your own training before graduation.

But even if the team size is limited, the collective power is still greater than the individual.

Two or three Pokémon form a team together, and at least they have someone to look after each other, which gives them a much greater advantage than those lone wolves in battle.

Therefore, before the summer camp officially started, the gym elves who knew the content of the competition in advance had already made private appointments with several familiar Pokémon to form a team.

As soon as they got off the bus, the Pokémon participating in the summer camp at the Fighting Gym were quickly divided into many teams and gathered together to discuss countermeasures.

Because Lu Yun was halfway through the competition, there was no spirit to communicate with him in advance to form a team.

Of course, even if there is, he will refuse it cleanly.

With Lu Yun's current strength, having two more Pokémon around him would not be of any benefit to him.

On the contrary, it will become a burden to him and hinder his implementation of actions.

Acting alone is Lu Yun's best choice.

As for meeting Pokémon belonging to other gyms in the forest

"Ha ha."

Lu Yun sneered silently,

It's good enough if you don't go looking for them. If someone who doesn't know how to deal with them comes to provoke you, don't blame him for being merciless.

The dark feet stepped on the soft soil, leaving a shallow footprint.

The rich fragrance of plant fibers fills the air, making those who smell it feel refreshed.

"Um"

Lu Yun frowned slightly, raised his right hand and touched his chin.

His experimentally cloned body gave him an unparalleled sense of smell.

Faintly, he smelled a very light odor in the fresh air of the forest.

This odor is not an unpleasant smell in the traditional sense;

It is a smell of decay and erosion on a spiritual level.

"very familiar."

Lu Yun thought in his heart.

"This is"

Suddenly, the red light flashed in the crystal pupils, like a dam that had opened its gates, and the frightening murderous intention spurted out like a tide, spreading around Lu Yun's body as the center.

But in a very short time, he was gathered and suppressed.

The Pokémon who were gathering in twos and threes nearby felt a chill rising from their tailbones and straight to the top of their heads, causing goosebumps to appear all over their bodies.

The originally noisy venue suddenly became extremely quiet.

A ferocious smile appeared on Lu Yun's face, and regardless of the reactions of the Pokémon around him, he strode into the dimly lit woods in front of him.

Not far behind him, Bad Frog was facing Lu Yun, his right hand raised high as if he was hesitant to speak.

His body was stiff, as if he was frightened by the terrifying murderous intention.

Seeing his dark figure disappearing into the dark forest, he weakly lowered his right hand.

Because Bad Frog has a bad and violent personality and is not very popular in the gym, he did not join any team in this summer camp.

But personal power is limited after all. If you can have a companion, it will definitely be easier.

After it discovered that Lu Yun was also participating in this event, it started thinking about it.

Although he looks vicious, he actually seems to be surprisingly kind.

He has a good personality and strong strength, and is definitely a perfect teammate.

It would be pretty good if I could form a team with him.

But unfortunately, the cold murderous intention that just erupted from Lu Yun made him retreat and became speechless.

"Ugh."

Bad Frog sighed reluctantly.

"There is no other way but to act alone."

Encouraging himself in his heart, Bad Frog tensed his body and walked into the birch forest with his mind on guard.

The dense forest that blocks the soft sunlight is like a greedy beast with its mouth open, swallowing Pokémon one after another into its endless belly like a black hole.
