Pokemon Dawn

54 Rest, Intelligence, and Omen of Edge

The "feathered guest" fled from the wrong room. It wasn't until she returned to the corridor and saw several girls in light-colored yukata walking out of the adjoining bathroom talking and laughing that Xiaoye suddenly realized it.

She hurried back to her room and put on the same style and different colors of goose-yellow yukata, and decided to write three times in the opinion book tomorrow, "It is recommended that the size 1 bold font next to the wardrobe be used to indicate male and female styles." As for which one brings more misunderstanding, clothes or face?

Xiaoye decided not to think about this problem.

It was already late when the two checked into the hotel, and due to Xiaoye's troubles, when she walked into the bathroom filled with the smell of sulfur, there was no one around the hot spring pool. The area enclosed by the wooden fence is quite spacious, and it seems to be enough for a dozen people to be in it, and wash away their fatigue happily. There is no ceiling above, and the stars are embedded in the night sky, casting twinkling reflections onto the water.

After finishing the shower quickly, Xiao Ye approached the hot spring and saw a fireball rat lying on the edge of the pool. Next to it was a wooden sign that read, "If you want the water to be hotter, please ask me."

The girl suddenly laughed. Before entering the hot spring, she couldn't help but reach out and stroke the soft fur on the back of the fire ball rat, making it chirp.

Fortunately, the trauma caused by the battle in the Flame Valley has been healed, and the fractures that need to be repaired do not affect the water. Xiaoye was able to enjoy a hot spring bath. During this period, because she stared at the Fireball Rat for too long, the little guy got the wrong idea. He enthusiastically added a fire to the water that was already at the right temperature, almost cooking the people inside until they were ripe.

Half an hour later, the two of them returned to the room. The hotel had already delivered a freshly prepared dinner. Raw shrimp, tempura, appetizers, rice and miso soup were the standard fare for people from Kanto and Johto in ancient times to dine on formal occasions, and they perfectly echoed the hotel decoration style.

Xiaoye and Xiaotian are both typical people who "have to write essays while traveling". It is especially rare when they don't have to rush, do night training, and don't think about tactics and training lists. They both feel a little fresh. They sat on both sides of the tables and chairs under the eaves, chatting while eating. The only drawback was that sometimes they had to talk at the top of their lungs because the Pokémon in the courtyard next to them were too noisy.

The new moon rises, covering the courtyard with a layer of bright silvery white. Xiaoye remembered that the golden retriever brother and sister curiously asked to see the hot spring hotel a day ago. She was about to pick up the phone when she suddenly touched an envelope and dropped it from the table.

Xiaoye only thought it was a leaflet with a special style. She took a photo of the courtyard and sent it to the group. After opening the envelope, she was stunned by the handwriting on the paper.

"What?" Xiaotian asked.

The girl turned the letter over and showed her companions that there were only two short lines on it.

I heard that many wooden houses have been built on Fengxue Mountain recently. They all look a bit old, like backward mountain villages decades ago. This is a rare sight, so please don’t miss it. Huoyuan Onsuru

"Is this true?" Xiaoye said tentatively.

"The battlefield of the Snowstorm Battle." Xiaotian confirmed his friend's guess.

Speaking of the Snowstorm Battle, probably all the trainers on the Orange Islands know that one is because of its generous gifts, and the other is a unique rule.

Unlike most events that focus on arena matches, Snowstorm Battles usually do not have a fixed battle mode and are more like an immersive RPG game. The contestants join with an identity that matches the background story, and while playing the "default identity", they look for clues everywhere, solve the mystery, and work hard to push the story to a good ending. Its "clearance" method is very flexible, and the winner does not even need to fight. Remember, in a snowy battle with the classic theme of "Dragon Quest", a certain brave man actually used three barrels of wine to get the Pokémon playing the dragon drunk. The dream made the whole scene ridiculous.

The Himi family that hosted the event seemed to enjoy it. Except for the creation of background stories and construction sites, almost all NPCs in the story were played by members of the Himi clan. It is worth mentioning that since the absurdity of the evil dragon being drunk, After the ending appeared, the villain boss of the Snowy Battle every year was served by the most respected elite trainer of the Himi family, and he no longer dared to hand over the task to Pokémon.

Considering that the opening day is approaching, the recently built village must be a facility for the competition.

In previous years, in order to prevent "plot leaks", visitors were prohibited from entering the Snow Mountain before the start of the game. Only the people of the flames who had a good relationship with the Himes could get such inside information. Xiao Ye originally felt a little guilty, but after the upright incarnation Xiao Tiandu said in an understatement that pre-match intelligence gathering was a part of the competition, she felt relieved and turned to think about how to thank the hotel owner for providing important information.

Her eyes swept across the mobile phone screen, which was full of long sighs and regrets from the golden retriever brother and sister about the courtyard scenery, "I think they will definitely like this kind of competition. It's a pity that their practice is not over yet."

As she said this, Xiaoye suddenly had an idea.

"Xiaotian, the 21st of this month is Xiaojie and Xiaoling's birthday. Have you decided what gifts to give?"

"Not yet." The silver-haired boy replied, turning his questioning eyes to the person opposite.

"Then what do you think of this?"

The next morning.

After breakfast, the manager of Fengming Pavilion recommended many nearby attractions and restaurants to the two of them. It's a pity that the essay-writing players couldn't restrain their eager hands. They said they were going to play, but in fact they went to the wilderness on the outskirts of the city to study new training.

After learning that "the battlefields of the Snowstorm Battle were villages and towns decades ago," they both speculated that the focus of this research might be "street fighting."

Different from battles in the arena or in the vast wilderness, street battles take place in cities, where the enemy and we are in close contact and mixed with each other; and the streets and alleys are complex, and the line of sight and firepower output are limited. In most cases, excessive damage to buildings must be avoided. A fight would be too restrictive.

It is said that street fighting will be listed as a key topic in the actual combat-related majors of every trainer training academy, but for independent trainers who have never attended school for a day, this is really a big problem. Not only Xiaoye, but also Xiaotian Even my knowledgeable peers have no research on this.

The power of the waveguide's blind-angle detection can provide a lot of help, but who knows if someone in the Himi family will be more evil-minded and throw a detection jammer into the field.

Xiaoye didn't intend to trouble Xiaotian anymore, and was deciding whether to go to the bookstore to buy a book and teach her through words and deeds first to pass on her practical experience to the Pokémon. Unexpectedly, after Xiaotian heard her say, "I have some experience myself, but I can't teach it all to Pokémon in a short while," he mistakenly focused on the first half of the sentence and triggered the "Dutiful Captain" Sir" buff, one group seriously asked Xiaoye to show the specific extent of her "some experience".

The "trainer with some experience" naturally agreed. At the same time, he was secretly glad that Xiaotian didn't ask in detail where his experience came from. The skills required to make up a lie at the moment were too high and difficult to achieve at the moment. He couldn't tell the truth, saying that he was in the social circle when he was a child. Under the leadership of the weird master, he often got into fights with people in the street, which made him unable to finish his summer homework.

In order to simulate the environment of street fighting, Shakiras used the power of the earth to create many mud walls of different heights. In order to ensure the complexity of the terrain, the appearance of the mud wall was determined by the ghost stone. After ten minutes, the entire site was distorted as if it were an abstract art work. Even though Xiaoye and Xiaotian were so calm, they both couldn't help but take a breath of cold air, and quickly motioned to Shakiras to pinch out a few adobe houses and stand them in them to make them look like street models. It's not a relic left by aliens.

If you want to know your abilities, an actual battle is naturally the fastest way. The two agreed on the drill method in a few words. Xiaotian was responsible for acting as a "rampant criminal" without caring about the environment, with the sole goal of "hurting the opponent"; while Xiaoye acted as his true self, trying to defeat the enemy while trying to protect the streets from being destroyed. Xiaotian’s Pokémon.

This strange way of fighting made the Pokémon full of curiosity, and they gathered around to see what happened. In the end, except for the forest lizard and grass turtle who were diligently practicing energy balls, the other Pokémon climbed onto the high platform made of rock blades with satisfaction. If you poke your neck, you can have a panoramic view of the "mud alley".

After all, it was during their vacation, so the two of them didn't send the Pokémon back to train on their own. After Mumu Xiao and Snow Boy made a "coo" sound at the top of their lungs, the battle began.

Xiaotian opened the waveguide detection almost immediately. But the opponent was obviously well prepared. The ripples returned were only sand, gravel, and soil, with no trace of human flavor at all.

Along the waveguide, the young man was the forerunner, and she immediately realized that she must have used the skills taught by her father to adjust her ripples to be consistent with the environment to achieve the concealment effect. Thanks to Ghost Stone's genius creativity, every part of the mud in the alley is twisted and unnatural, and it is impossible to tell which is real mud and which is fake mud based on experience.

However, this also shows one thing.

The effect of ripple adjustment can only cover the clothing on the body at most, and it will never help cover up the Pokémon's body. In other words, Xiaoye has not released the Pokémon she chose before, Pichu and Ghost.

Thinking of this, the "rampant criminal" immediately became emboldened and swaggered through the mud alley with the electric shock beast, trying to capture the opponent's position using electrical signals.

The exchange of fire happened at an unexpected moment.

Countless walls and corners served as the best cover for the attackers. Every flash of lightning and will-o'-the-wisps seemed to reveal Xiaoye's location, but Xiaotian followed the fleeting breath of Pokémon and searched, but could not find any traces. Only ghostly attacks continued.

He tried to climb to the commanding heights, but there was no one anywhere as far as he could see, and the harassing will-o'-the-wisps appeared accurately from the blind corners of his vision. He also tried to let Water Eevee open the water flow ring, and the electric shock beast attached the electricity to it, and scanned the surrounding area. Not only did he find nothing, but the electric shock beast was hit twice more while it was still accumulating power, which made it angry. With the swollen bump on his head, he just wanted to hit the muddy alley with a thunderbolt.

The person in charge of the crime felt like a poor civilian who was being beaten. Before he could figure out how to break the situation, he suddenly heard a "bang" not far away.

He subconsciously looked up and saw that the wall of the three-story mud house next to him was broken into pieces for unknown reasons. The girl who had been hidden before was standing behind the broken wall, still raising her right hand, with a frozen look on her face as if she had seen something incredible.

The next moment, the tortured mud house collapsed completely, and Xiaoye in the field of vision fell down and disappeared. Xiaotian was immediately startled. He crossed the low wall and rushed to the scene in a few steps. Only then did he realize that his worries were unnecessary. The opponent's landing posture was more skillful than Pichu.

The two stood beside the smoke-filled ruins and looked at each other. After a moment of silence, Xiaotian pointed to the original house that collapsed into a pile of mud, "This is your tactic."

"No, no, no." Xiaoye waved her hands repeatedly, fearing that the captain would think she was crazy and issue an expulsion order, "I just wanted to dig a small hole in the wall to observe the situation."

Once the power of the waveguide is released to detect the surrounding environment, the position will definitely be detected by Xiaotian who also turns on the detection, so Xiaoye can only rely on vision to observe the opponent. She originally wanted to use the power of the waveguide to dig a "cat's eye" in the soil. The "ripple adjustment" state could not erase the movement of attack moves such as wave missiles, but the small light blade attached to her fingertips could still cover it up.

In fact, she has done this many times since the beginning of the exercise. For some reason, this time she actually broke the entire wall. The instigator himself was filled with questions like a fire-breathing dragon, and even began to doubt whether he was really careless. Vigorously miracle.

After listening to Xiaoye's defense, Xiaotian showed a clear look.

"Do you know about ripple resonance?"

After asking in a simple sentence, Xiaoye suddenly understood.

As we all know, every system has natural frequencies. When it receives vibrations of the same frequency, causing the system amplitude to increase, that is, a resonance phenomenon occurs, it may cause structural deformation or even damage. For example, "Soldiers marching across the bridge causing the bridge to collapse" is an example that all ten-year-old children know.

As a special kind of wave, waveguide power also has similar properties. When the ability user adjusts the frequency of his own ripples to be consistent with the soil, the detection will think that he is a pile of soil; and if the ripples of the same frequency are injected into the soil to cause resonance, the original form will not be destroyed. People are surprised.

The nearby mud wall had been washed away by Water Eevee's moves, and the wet touch of mud still remained on Xiaoye's fingertips. Perhaps the mud house itself has become fragile after withstanding the impact, so it was crushed by the "last straw".

After apologizing for their own mistakes, the drills could finally get back on track. It was expected that they would spend a whole morning practicing street fighting.

Xiaoye led the Pokémon towards the bunker, still recalling the scene where the wall shattered just now in her mind.

According to Xiaotian, although "ripple resonance" can destroy hard objects relatively easily, it takes too long to adjust the frequency. In actual combat, it is not as fast as throwing an energy bomb.

Then

What if frequency adjustment doesn’t take that long?
