A person abandoned by the Pokémon world

"Just a moment, Chief Swan."

Bai An called out to the person in front who was not walking so majestically and was the chief swan.

"Huh?"

Chief Swan was puzzled. He had not yet gotten over the guilt of Bai An almost falling into the water.

Even though Bai An said many times that it was not his fault.

The appearance of Chief Swan made Bai An very regretful, so even in the forest, Bai An did not release the monarch snakes and the others.

And now Bai An saw something good.

“Look at those trees.”

Bai An pointed to some strange trees not far away.

Why is it weird? Because those trees are the same height and look the same, there are not many green parts on them, most of them are trunks.

It's more like a branch stuck in the ground than a tree.

The Chief Swan obviously noticed something was wrong, or perhaps he didn't realize it. It was unclear whether the confusion in his eyes was caused by the fact that he noticed something was wrong.

I still don’t understand why Bai An asked me to look at a few trees.

"Just watch this~" Bai An patted the chief swan's neck lightly, his consciousness immersed in the modifier.

His consciousness was searching for an item. This item was a bit unpopular and not often used in battle, so Bai An had a hard time finding it.

It is more difficult for Unknown Totem A to spit out, and this item is larger than five Unknown Totems A.

Even though this had happened countless times, Unknown Totem A still began to doubt his life when he saw himself spitting out something so big.

Whenever it was late at night and everyone was asleep, the little head of Unknown Totem A would always be filled with great doubts: "How on earth did my trainer stuff such a big thing into my body?"

"Huh? There's water, that's even better."

Bai An took the item spit out by the Unknown Totem A, felt a little depressed and looked down to see that there was water inside.

Prop "Pikachu Watering Can".

Watering tools can make the fruit trees buried in soft soil grow quickly.

However, this item has another effect, which is...

Bai An walked to one of the strange trees and poured the water in the spray bottle onto the tree as if he was watering a flower.

"nonsense!!!"

The tree suddenly opened its eyes and ran away screaming.

"Gah!!!"

Chief Swan was shocked, this is a Pokémon! ?

Why didn't I sense his presence?

"Tree is a weirdo, a Mimic Pokémon that often imitates trees.

Although it looks like a tree, it is a rock-type Pokémon, so it is afraid of water."

Bai An explained to the chief swan with a smile, and then raised the "Pikachuk Spray Can" in his hand.

"How about giving it a try?"

"Gah!"

The chief swan nodded, and just as he took the "Pikachuk Watering Can", the remaining trees all ran away.

"Gah~"

“Let’s play again next time when we have a chance.

Chief Swan, you said that watering the plants is a natural thing. People passing by will water them when they see them looking so dry and pitiful.

But they are afraid of water, so why do they disguise themselves as dry trees?

Isn't it obvious that this is written to water me?"

Bai An asked the Chief Swan with a smile, he was about to start fooling around, who would have the time to water the trees in the wild.

"Huh?"

The Chief Swan tilted his head, clearly explaining why.

"Because they are overcoming, they are trying their best to overcome their weaknesses.

Are they brave?

Chief Swan nodded blankly.

Bai An estimated that it should have some effect, so he left some energy blocks and took Chief Swan away from the vicinity.

Along the way, Bai An could see that the chief swan was about to stretch his wings from time to time, with a bit of hesitation on his face.

The chief swan never took the step of flapping its wings and flying.

Bai An sighed helplessly, muttering in his heart: "Don't worry, there is still a lot of time.

Forty or fifty years can always build up his mental strength."

"Hmm? Using such a loud device in a place like this?

Where are the talented people who are so desperate?"

At first it was just a small sound and Bai An didn't pay attention to it, but as they moved forward, the sound became louder and louder, and Bai An determined that it was the sound of a large machine operating.

You have to know that this is deep in the forest, the home of Pokémon. They will not accommodate humans, just like humans will not accommodate them.

"That's not right. Why can't I see any Pokémon?"

The source of the sound was on the road Bai An passed by, and Bai An had no intention of avoiding it.

This journey was different from what Bai An had expected, where there would be a Pokémon riot. Instead, contrary to the norm, there was not a single Pokémon.

When Bai An arrived at the source of the sound, he understood.

"I can't afford to offend you, so I just avoid you."

Bai An whispered.

The construction area was surrounded by an electric fence, and the power of technology made the Pokémons stay away.

“Is this the size of the institute?

Where did this doctor come from? He built a research institute without considering the local Pokémon?"

Because the research institute was destroyed by one of their own Pokémon, Bai An also learned about it from the construction team.

The Pokémon world has strict standards for the size of buildings in the wild, especially for gyms and research institutes.

Even people from aristocratic families have to comply, of course, this refers to building a research institute.

As for other buildings, such as villas, the people from the Private Property Alliance have no control over them.

“But this research institute hasn’t been completed yet, why are there so many people here?

They all seem to be rich people.”

Bai An was a little confused as he looked at the man dressed in gorgeous robes and with at least one emerald green ring on his finger.

"Chief Swan, please come back first. I'll go in and take a look~"

Bai An was very curious. He took back the chief swan and picked up Soraya at the same time: "Hold on, both of you. Don't leave me and get exposed."

Bai An said this to Zoroark and Cosmogu on his shoulder.

“Isn’t this Boss Ye?

Have you heard about it too?"

"Who am I thinking, isn't this Yun Lao Ba?

You've heard it, how could I not have heard it?"

Taking advantage of the fact that no one could see him, Bai An followed the two of them and eavesdropped.

Bai An was confused by what he heard. It seemed that they came here to participate in something unspeakable.

"But since you're here, I believe Mo Yu should be here too, right?"

"That's for sure. How can a place like this be without her?"

The names spoken by the two people made Bai An dazed, and his memory went back to the Xicui area.

Good, he is more curious about what's going on here now.

"The outside is so shabby, but the interior decoration is quite nice."

The man called Boss Ye commented.

"Tsk, if it's not good, how can we attract you, the bosses, to come and spend money?"

With just one sentence, Bai An defined this man named Yun Lao Ba as a barbell spirit, or simply a barbell spirit.

Someone who argues with you no matter what you do or say.

As Bai An went deeper, he gradually got to know this place. It seemed to be a very high-end store.

Even though he hasn't seen the owner of this place or the specific situation yet, Bai An already has some guesses in his mind.

"A Pokémon trading place disguised as a research institute."

This kind of secretly built store only trades Pokémon, and it is very likely that it was founded by a noble family.

Finding a PhD who is short of funding is a very easy task for the aristocratic family.

After all, most PhDs, especially those without a good reputation, may not even be able to afford food for their research.
