Elves: Goal, help Pokémon fulfill their wishes

"How about we take a short break?" Liang Yin raised his hand to wipe the sweat off his forehead. "We've already walked quite a distance."

As the saying goes, "A horse will die if it runs too far up the mountain."

Although the towering tree of the beginning of the world has been standing in front of us since we entered this world, giving us the illusion that it is right in front of us all the time, but illusions are just illusions after all. It has been about two hours since the three pillars of "Calabash Boys Save Grandpa" were hung on the tree one by one by Mewtwo.

However, even though he had been walking non-stop for such a long time, Liang Yin did not feel that the distance between him and the Tree of the Origin of the World was shortened at all - the other party was like the "beauty" who was always "on the other side of the water".

In other words, to use a more understandable metaphor, the other party is like lying in the so-called "probability UP↑ pool", a "limited" position that is "within reach but out of reach".

"Uh... to be honest, I'm a little tired." After not sleeping for the whole night and traveling instead, even Xiaozhi, who has the physique of a super real rookie, can't stand it at this moment.

Lucario, who was walking in front, stopped and said, "I have no objection."

Its body did not feel tired.

After all, as a flexible and strong wave Pokémon, when it was still Riolu, it was already energetic enough to "climb over three mountains and cross two canyons in just one night."

"Hold on, walk a few hundred meters further," at this time, Chaomeng's telepathic voice sounded in everyone's mind, "...there is a hot spring there, which is more suitable for resting."

"Hot spring? Hey hey hey, are there really hot springs?!"

Xiaozhi, who originally didn't quite understand the first half of Mewtwo's words, suddenly became alert after hearing the second half.

Liang Yin gently put down the backpack on his shoulder, looked at the little fox who had found a mezzanine to take a nap not long ago, and slowly shook his head: "It's just a hot spring..."

……

"Hot springs, high!"

Liang Yin, with everything except his head immersed in the hot spring, leaned lazily against the bank, not caring about his earlier remarks that it "smells really good". The rising white steam made the surroundings even more charming.

Hmm, it feels like all the fatigue has been swept away.

"The hot spring is so comfortable~" Xiaozhi sighed in a long voice.

Pikachu, floating on the water with his back up, responded with deep approval: "Pika Pika, Pika."

Then, whether intentionally or unintentionally, it flapped its short legs twice, and the warm water splashed onto Xiaozhi's face - a "water fight" was about to break out.

After a few rounds.

Pikachu and Ash's "water fight" entered a white-hot stage. Even Lucario, who was just sitting on the edge soaking his paws, was infected by the atmosphere (being splashed with water) and passively joined in.

Seeing them so happy, Liang Yin, who was envious, couldn't help but put his hand into the backpack on the shore, poked the little fur ball dozing inside with his fingertips, and seduced in an almost bewitching tone: "Eevee, do you really not want to take a hot spring bath? The hot spring is so comfortable, even Lucario is having a lot of fun."

In fact, before entering the water, he had already asked the little fox for his opinion. And at that time, the two of them were in cahoots, and they all agreed that "soaking in a hot spring" and "taking a hot bath" were almost the same, so Ibrahimovic decided to continue taking a nap in the interlayer of his backpack.

Just a few seconds after entering the water, Liang Yin changed sides at lightning speed - he didn't want to defect, but it turned out that he could take a sauna while soaking in the hot spring!

Ibrahimovic, curled up in the bag and felt a little itchy from being poked by fingers, bit it with a "woof", but controlled the strength very well, not light but not heavy either: "It's just a hot spring..."

Hmm, this sounds familiar? Liang Yin was stunned.

"If Liang Yin wants someone to accompany him even when he's taking a hot spring bath, then he can go find little Zeraora," a lazy yawn came from the backpack. The little fox knew his human's thoughts best. "Ibrahimovic and little Zeraora work in shifts..."

Shift work? When did that happen?

Wait, so accompanying me is a “job”?

Hearing this, the corners of Liang Yin's mouth twitched involuntarily. It seemed that his little fellow could always come up with some new tricks for him when he was least prepared.

But... go find Zeraora?

Liang Yin was a little unsure whether it had freed its claws, but at Eevee's instigation, he tentatively reached into the waist bag next to the backpack and touched the Poké Ball inside.

"Uh, Zeraora, are you asleep?" To be on the safe side, he once again used a sentence that had successfully started a topic before as his "vanguard".

The Poké Ball seemed to shake, but made no sound.

"Zeraora, Zeraora, do you want to take a hot spring bath?"

Zeraora's voice came from the Poké Ball: "No need."

"Uh, but... Zeraora, it's your turn to accompany me." Liang Yin blurted out subconsciously after being rejected.

The Poké Ball finally lit up with a blue light.

Because of the height difference between the ground and the bottom of the spring, although the young Zeraora was only about 1.2 meters tall like Lucario, it was the first time that he stood in front of Liang Yin in a superior posture in a physical sense.

"…What does 'it's my turn to accompany you' mean?"

It looked a little odd.

"Well, because Ibrahimovic said you guys work in shifts..."

Liang Yin, who seemed to have smelled something unusual, immediately put on a "serious" face, repeated the little fox's words in a serious manner, and finally raised his hand and pointed in the direction of the backpack.

The next moment, the snoring coming from inside seemed to become a lot more deliberate - that guy was clearly pretending to be asleep, and maybe he was even eavesdropping with his ears perked up!

The shift system was made up by Ibrahimovic! He just wanted to see me embarrass myself in front of Zeraora! This thought flashed through Liang Yin's mind.

"So, you want me to accompany you to take a hot spring bath?" The black cat nodded thoughtfully.

"Ah, that's not what I meant..." Liang Yin nodded. Qiao Dou Ma Dai, why am I nodding? !

The electric cat squatted down, stretched out its claws to drag the water surface, and tested the water temperature. It was indeed a very comfortable temperature. There was nothing wrong with giving it a try, so it immediately agreed, "Okay."

"...Eh?!" Liang Yin was stunned again, and then he was filled with unexpected ecstasy.

You can soak in a hot spring while petting cats. Is this heaven?

……

Ibrahimovic, lying in the interlayer of the backpack, sighed, and as usual, lamented that as a big sister, he really worried about his little brother.

After sighing for a while, the triumphant little fox turned over casually, but suddenly its paw touched something soft - it was sure that there was no such thing before!

What horror movie is unfolding?
