Elf: I'm the only one who understands Pokémon

"Brother Xiaomai, let me submit my application for study tour."

After saying "Come in", Fang Zhu pushed the door open, took a piece of information and walked towards the direction of Maitang.

Generally speaking, in addition to going on missions, gym apprentices often need to stay in the gym to complete a series of courses and training.

If you want to go out for a long time, you need to apply for a study tour to the museum owner and get permission.

And this is the reason why Fang Zhu came to the museum owner's office.

Maitang, who was at the desk, turned around and nodded, "Fang Zhu, please sit down for a while. I'll finish this soon."

As he spoke, Maitang's hands were typing quickly on the computer keyboard. Fang Zhu watched as his hands quickly formed afterimages.

"I'm going to die, I'm going to die, the deadline is coming."

While muttering softly to himself, Maitang's speed did not slow down.

Whenever a gym competition ends and a group of apprentices graduate, the gym owner will often face the busiest period.

Waiting for them will be a pile of report summaries and data submissions, and Maitang happens to be the kind of person who likes to put off such formal things until the end.

"It's done."

Seeing that the word count had finally reached the target, Maitang pressed the upload button and breathed a long sigh of relief. Then he turned his chair to Fang Zhu, picked up his study tour application, glanced at it twice, and then raised his head.

"If you want to participate in the league conference, the individual competition champion will be eligible for a promotion, so there is no need to go to such trouble."

Maitang reminded that if he had a ready opportunity to compete, he would definitely not choose the troublesome process of traveling to a gym.

Fang Zhu just shook his head: "Brother Xiaomai, it's been so long since I've been in the Pokémon world, but I haven't fully traveled around this world yet.

There are many unknown Pokémon and scenery waiting for me to encounter, experience a different life, and challenge powerful gym owners. I think my Pokémon and I can grow better. "

"Snapped."

After stamping the seal without hesitation, Maitang sighed, "It's great to be young" while helping Fang Zhu handle the study tour procedures on the system.

Within two or three minutes, Maitang was facing Fang Zhu again.

"The formalities are completed, pack your bags and go, young man, I wish you good luck."

After saying that, Maitang suddenly thought of something and raised the corner of his mouth and said to Fang Zhu: "It's just that with your current popularity, are you sure you can really travel well?"

Compared with previous individual competition champions, Fang Zhu's popularity among the people is surprisingly high.

The gimmicks of "First-year Apprentice", "Fastest Grand Slam" and "The Jade Bug's Counterattack" are already highly topical. Coupled with Fang Zhu's already good looks and the handsome appearance of MEGA Big Needle Bee, it makes He gained a lot of fans.

Furthermore, the inheritance of the title "Queen Bee" has caused many Mufan fans to develop a fondness for Fang Zhu.

Finally, there are the residents of Gaia Star scattered all over the place. They have become famous in just one year, and a sense of local identity has grown among most Gaia Star residents.

Fang Zhu vaguely has the meaning of "Gaia Star". Even if the Eastern Alliance only has about a quarter of the entire Gaia Star, it is still a huge number that cannot be underestimated.

"This……"

Thinking of this, Fang Zhu couldn't help but smile bitterly.

"You can only do your activities in the wild as much as possible. If you go into the city, you can dress up in disguise. As long as you don't let the big tongue show up or let the giant needle bee carry out its MEGA evolution in public, it should be fine."

"Okay, let me ask one last question, which eight gyms do you plan to challenge?"

"Brother Xiaomai, you don't plan to tip off the information and let the museum owners torture me."

Fang Zhu covered his chest and made an exaggerated look of fear.

"I haven't decided yet. Let's check it out along the way. I'm more about fate."

"Okay, then go get ready. I really look forward to seeing you and Mu Fan meet again at the Alliance Conference."

With a smile, Maitang watched Fang Zhu leave the office.

Mu Fan also traveled around and challenged various gyms with the goal of the Alliance Conference, but Mai Tang was looking forward to seeing the two apprentices he was most proud of confront each other again.

After Fang Zhu left the office, Maitang suddenly took out a stack of information from the space storage tool and scratched his head in distress.

"The children are graduating and traveling. It seems it's time to deal with this tricky task..."

……

Fang Zhu, who had already packed his luggage and returned to the dormitory, didn't need to do much. Long Yao and other apprentice friends had also said goodbye a few days ago.

Looking at the complete set of luxurious outdoor camping equipment lying in the microcapsule, Fang Zhu couldn't help but raise the corners of his mouth.

This was something Long Yao forced on him after he knew he was going on a trip. It was said that they were all specially customized and not available on the market.

He declined at first, but Long Yao resolutely forced them into his hands while saying, "I'll be at the Jade Chong Gym for the next three years anyway, so I won't have any use for it."

"Remember other people's good things. If you see any good things during your trip, bring some back."

Having made up his mind, Fang Zhu turned his head and took one last look at the dark green Jade Insect Gym.

This is the place that made me feel like "home" after I came to the Pokémon world, but now, I have to say goodbye to it for a while.

This feeling is very similar to when I left the orphanage in my previous life and went to college far away.

"Good morning Aunt Wang, the corn will be harvested soon."

"Morning, Uncle Li, yes, get ready to go out and do some things."

"No, no, no, Sister Zhao, I haven't finished the food you gave me last time. It tastes very good."

"Little Potato, as long as you study Pokémon knowledge well, you can be like me in the future."

……

Along the way, he exchanged warm greetings with the residents of Yu Chong Town. Since the gym competition, Fang Zhu has almost become the "town pet" of the entire Yu Chong Town.

The overwhelming kindness also enabled him, who was originally unsociable, to have a heartfelt chat with the residents.

"call--"

When he reached the entrance of the village, Fang Zhu stood still in front of a house.

After much hesitation, he took a deep breath, walked up and knocked on the door: "Grandma Wang, are you there?"

"Go straight around to the backyard."

The sound was not loud, but Fang Zhu heard it clearly and quickly walked around half a circle to the backyard of the house.

Grandma Wang was holding a cup of hot tea, with Doronbaruto by her side, leisurely basking in the morning sunshine.

"It stands to reason that you usually wouldn't come at this time. Did something happen to Yu Chong?"

Grandma Wang turned around and asked. Fang Zhu ran to her side less often, usually in the afternoon, and rarely came so early.

Fang Zhu was at a loss for words and didn't know how to speak, but in the end he said softly: "Grandma Wang, I am planning to start traveling with the goal of this year's Alliance Conference to see the world.

so……"

Fang Zhu paused for a moment: "I may not be able to come for a long time after that."

Upon hearing this, Granny Wang didn't react much, she just picked up the hot tea in the cup and took another sip.

"Sure enough, you are the kind of person who can't sit still. I've already guessed it."

After saying that, a package suddenly appeared in Grandma Wang's hands. She flicked it and was caught by Fang Zhu in a hurry.

"Take it, the blessing from the beautiful girl, and come back safely, you owe me five stories."

"it is good."

Seeing this, Fang Zhu's worried face finally showed a smile, and he carefully held the package in his arms.

Just taking a glance, he saw that the quality of energy jade was revealed in the package. Fang Zhu was about to speak, but Granny Wang stopped him first.

"Let's go on, Dorong Baruto and the others have already reached their bottleneck. These are of no use to them."

"Then...Grandma Wang, am I leaving?"

"Go on, young people don't belong in this quiet town. Only the elderly like me will stay here."

After saying that, Fang Zhu turned around and left with the package in his arms. It wasn't like he wasn't coming back. There was no need to drag things out at this time.

After walking far away, Fang Zhu gently placed the package in the important corner of the microcapsule.

He had never opened the package and didn't notice that an aqua blue amulet was lying there quietly beside the package.

If someone from the Pokémon world takes a look at it, they can easily tell that this amulet comes from a festival in Water Curtain City.

It has no practical effect, but it brings peace of mind and often carries the good wishes of the person seeking the talisman.
