I, the Pokémon Master, now resign

The descendants who know its power fear and alienate it, he knows that Darkrai will bring nightmares to people, so no matter how hard he tries, he can't befriend Darkrai without hindrance like his father.

But in the same way, because it was his father's request, he didn't tell the local villagers about Darkley. Instead, he took time to come here every day, bring it some delicious food, and try his best every day. Chat with it from a distance.

However, there is no relaxed and comfortable atmosphere in this kind of communication. Instead, it is full of heaviness, just like when a subordinate is chatting with a leader.

As for Darkrai, after many years of fighting, its strength is no longer comparable to that of decades ago. Now its strength can be ranked even among the legendary Pokémon. It is impossible for ordinary guardian individuals to defeat it.

Of course, the increase in strength is not all reflected in the active effect. Even if it does not have any will, its ability to make people fall into nightmares is already much stronger, not only reflected in the quality of nightmares, but also reflected in— —

range.

Decades ago, he finally found it. The limit of Darkley's power has long since changed. This geomantic treasure land in his eyes has actually fallen under Darkley's power.

Even if it is hiding in that dark underground cave, its power will spread unreservedly to the village, affecting everyone living there.

It didn't know about it, and what it did every day was just waiting for his child's arrival and wiping the tombstone for him.

But the descendants knew about it, and the nightmares every day made him fear Darkrai more and more from the bottom of his heart, but even so, he followed his father's last words and entertained Darkrai with a smiling face every day.

However, even if he can maintain such a hypocritical relationship, the villagers cannot continue to endure such a life.

One after another, one after another...

After trying to crack the nightmare to no avail, everyone in the village began to slowly leave here and the hometown that raised them.

In the end, he also suffered from a serious illness due to inner entanglement and condemnation of morality and conscience, and passed away early.

And it wasn't until the day of his death that Darkrai finally witnessed the village that had become decayed because of its power.

......

417 Relics of the Dead

"So, is it really okay..."

In a hut on Iron Island, Ma Li looked at Bai Chen who was sleeping on the ground with a painful expression, and couldn't help asking worriedly.

After a fierce struggle with the warm quilt and sweet dreams, Mary has already woken up.

But after seeing Bai Chen lying at her door, she once again thought that she was still dreaming. After all, in the dream, Bai Chen seemed to have acted like this before, and at that time, she actually...

cough cough...

ran away.

Originally, Ma Li thought she was still in a dream, but the next second, she saw Bai Chen's expression turned painful, and inaudible murmurs kept coming out of Bai Chen's mouth.

Seeing that Bai Chen seemed to be having a nightmare, Ma Li couldn't care about anything else, and was about to wake him up, but the Crystal Lantern Fire Spirit was one step ahead of her, stopping her plan.

Although the Crystal Lantern Fire Spirit tried to express something to her, there was no bond between being a trainer and a Pokémon. Even if she tried to understand it, Marie failed in the end, but after all, the Crystal Lantern Fire Spirit is Bai Chen's Pokémon. Naturally, it wouldn't hurt him, so Ma Li gave up the idea of ​​waking Bai Chen up after thinking of this.

It's just that she really couldn't bear to see Bai Chen's painful expression because of the nightmare, so from the beginning to the end, she could only hold a towel and squat beside Bai Chen, wiping the sweat from his forehead.

"Um...uh..."

Finally, Bai Chen's murmurs were no longer completely inaudible like at the beginning, but gradually began to pop out one or two clear syllables. It was not until he opened his eyes that he finally regained the ability to speak.

"This is...in the house? Why...um? Why are you here, Mary..."

Bai Chen, who just woke up from sleep, has not yet recalled what he experienced in the dream, but just looked at Mary with a worried face and his own position in a daze.

Although he didn't remember what happened in the dream for a while, he remembered clearly that he should have passed out in that cave.

"Don't talk about me yet." Ma Li said angrily, "Teacher Bai Chen, why did you just sleep here? Although it's spring, it's still cold outside. What if you catch a cold? what to do?"

Ma Li shook her fingers, preaching to Bai Chen like this.

Of course she knew that something must have happened to Bai Chen to sleep here, but perhaps out of revenge for Bai Chen's action alone yesterday, she still chose this mode of preaching.

"Forehead......"

Sure enough, Bai Chen, who knew it was his fault, didn't refute Ma Li's words, but just smiled helplessly in a flattering tone, and didn't say anything.

And after his brain regained consciousness, he also naturally recalled everything yesterday, including the picture in the dream...

It seems that there is no way to blame it.

Bai Chen and Crystal Lantern Huoling looked at each other, although he didn't intend to ask for responsibility, but Crystal Lantern Huoling showed an attitude of admitting his mistake, as if Bai Chen wanted to punish him at will.

But after figuring out the whole story, of course Bai Chen wouldn't care about such a trivial matter, but he felt very uncomfortable in the dream. While creating that kind of scene for him, Darkley also seemed to create something for him. Its emotional changes throughout the course of events come.

Therefore, it is said that he is a witness to the whole incident, but in a sense, he seems to be a participant in all incidents, whether it is Darkley's remorse and self-blame, or the regret and remorse of the anonymous person. Loneliness, or the struggle and hesitation of future generations...

He has already clearly received these emotions, and what Darkley means right now, after going through all this, he has also thoroughly understood.

"What's the matter?" Seeing that Bai Chen hadn't started yet, Ma Li asked a little strangely: "Shouldn't we hurry up and continue to investigate the surrounding clues?"

Regarding Bai Chen's sudden slack performance, Ma Li felt a little tricky. After all, Bai Chen went out by himself without even waking himself up for work yesterday. Logically speaking, he got up in time today, so he should have no reason to continue. It's right to stay here.

Or......

"Ah~ no need, I probably have found it, prepare well, you can fight it tonight, before that I have to take a good rest... er... "

Only then did he tell Ma Li the "good news" in his eyes, but the next second he felt the gaze cast by Ma Li.

His gaze was full of coldness, as if he was going to take off his clothes and throw them into the cold wind.

"Then...that...Miss Mary...Although I think it should be impossible, but...you shouldn't be angry, right?"

The corners of Bai Chen's mouth twitched slightly, he tried his best to keep a smile on his face, trying to comfort Mary with a calm tone, but.

"What do you think? Teacher Bai Chen?"

Bai Chen was terrified by Ma Li's faceless smile, even in the dream on the first day, he was never so scared as he is now.

"We, didn't we make an agreement yesterday?" Ma Li smiled and tiptoed, put her head close to Bai Chen's ear, and said in the most gentle voice she could make: "Or... in your eyes , I’m not trustworthy at all? You even need to stay up all night and go to the mine alone to investigate these?”

"(Gudu~)" Bai Chen swallowed in fear, and carefully explained: "No, it's not...I wanted to go outside to blow some air because I couldn't sleep, and then who knew... "

"Oh~~" Mary dragged out a long sound meaningfully. "I wanted to go out for a stroll, but I accidentally wandered into the mountains, is that so~?"

"this and that……"

Bai Chen didn't know how to explain it for a while, although he did not say that he planned to solve the problem by himself without telling Ma Li, but in fact, it seemed that he really planned to do so .

Seeing Bai Chen's flustered look, Ma Li could only sigh helplessly in the end.

Even if Bai Chen didn't explain, Ma Li actually knew that he didn't have that kind of thought, and she didn't seem to have any effect if she wanted to talk about it. She even overslept on the first day. If it was in society, such a situation would basically Has it been judged as a "death penalty"?

But even so...

"I forgive you..."

"what?"

Bai Chen thought he heard it wrong, so he asked in a doubtful tone.

"Hmm..." Seeing that Bai Chen didn't hear clearly, Ma Li repeated it unhappily. "I said—forgive you!"

Ma Li knew that she was just venting her anger, and there was nothing she could forgive or not about this incident. In the end, this was the entrustment that Bai Chen had received, and although she was Bai Chen's student, she was not an employee of Wanshiwu Well, it stands to reason that she would have no problem even if she just watched from the sidelines.

but……

Not reconciled!

Very unhappy!

The real reason for Ma Li's anger is nothing else, but that Bai Chen always cares too much about herself, but doesn't care about her body.Beforehand, he always used his authority as a teacher to get her to accept good intentions, and he always pretended to be okay to make her feel at ease.

What the hell is this?

Although she is not an adult, Ma Li does not think that she should be treated like a child. She likes Bai Chen's concern for her, but it is definitely not in this way.

Just like now, obviously he was already tired and slept on the cold floor all night, and he was still having painful nightmares, but even so, after seeing himself, he still hid all the pain , as if to show how powerful he is as a teacher.

Mary hates Bai Chen's attitude towards her.

"So..." Therefore, at the end, Mary put forward her own conditions. "In the future, please really treat me as your assistant, not a student, can you?"

As long as he still maintains his status as a student, Bai Chen will definitely give in to himself in various matters. In this way, if he encounters a similar situation in the future, it will probably end in the same way.

"...I see, so may I ask if your anger has subsided, little assistant?"

Although the process was a bit strange, it seemed that Ma Li was no longer angry, so at least she didn't have to worry about being a thief.

"Ah."

Obviously it was her own suggestion, but after hearing Bai Chen's new address for her, Ma Li felt a little embarrassed, and after humming lightly in a voice as thin as a mosquito, Ma Li withdrew her cushion. Her toes and her cheeks felt a little burning, so she lowered her head, not daring to keep looking at Bai Chen.

Bai Chen: "???"

Although it's good that he doesn't have to continue to be questioned, but he always feels that Mary's appearance is a bit weird. Is it because of his title?But wasn't this title also proposed by her?

It's so hard to understand...

In the end, Bai Chen could only sigh with emotion that the girl's mind was hard to guess, and then went out alone, planning to take a casual stroll around.

Well, just take a stroll, definitely not in the name of taking a walk like Mary said, but actually fulfill the commission!

However, Mary should have believed in herself. After all, when she left, she seemed to be preparing for temporary training for the night's battle.

However, in Bai Chen's opinion, this is really not necessary. After all, she doesn't know any information about Darkley, let alone its specific abilities, and even its skills. Next, what effective tactics do you want to make...

Sure enough, it's still unlikely, right?

Bai Chen muttered casually in his heart.

……

Separated from Ma Li, Bai Chen walked alone on the cold street at the entrance of the village, looking for a trace of someone, and finally he found him on the stone bench at the entrance of the village.

"Good morning."

Bai Chen stepped forward to greet him, but after Bai Chen made a sound, the other party noticed him, and also returned a smile.

"Good morning, Mr. Bai Chen, it's very early today. If you're hungry, I'll help you prepare breakfast."

Dafeng Youhui said so, and was about to get up, but Bai Chen came to him now, of course not for breakfast, so he stretched out his hand to stop him.

"It's not this, I'm here now because I want to ask you something."

"Ask me?" Dafeng Youhui didn't seem to think that Bai Chen came to him for other reasons, but after all, he was a guest he invited, so he would naturally respect him.

"Well... I see, please feel free to ask."

Dafeng Youhui didn't have any secrets in his heart that he had to keep. The only secret, and the one that caused him the most headache, was nothing more than the curse of the nightmare that had always existed in the village.

"That's fine." Bai Chen responded briefly, and finally sat down next to Dafeng Youhui. Instead of looking at him, he looked at the riddled mine in front of him, and said slowly: "You Have you ever heard of the title... Anonymous? It seems that he is from this village, but he passed away a long time ago."

"anonymous......"

Dafeng Youhui's first reaction was that this Anonymous was some kind of nickname, but after thinking about it carefully, it seemed that he really had a little impression of this.No, it should be said that he was deeply impressed, but those deep impressions were not for Wu Mingshi, but for Wu Mingshi's real body.

"Although I don't know if it's the one you're looking for, but we used to have one who liked to call himself Anonymous, especially after helping others."

The village head thought for a moment, and said to Bai Chen:

"I can't remember his name, because he and I are not of the same generation. I only know his surname is Hengshan. I heard from my parents that he seems to be a good old man who likes to help others from a long time ago."

"Yes, what I want to know is information about him."

Bai Chen secretly breathed a sigh of relief, if even the village head didn't know about this person, then things would indeed be a little troublesome afterwards, but it seemed that he was worrying too much.

But the surname is only the most basic and negligible information, what Bai Chen wants to know is something deeper.

With a slightly puzzled expression on the village chief's face, he asked nervously, "Do you have any more specific information about Mr. Hengshan?"

"Is there any specific information..." The village chief put his arms around his chest, looking a bit distressed, then spread his hands and said: "Although I don't know if there is any, but there is a warehouse in the village. A place dedicated to storing the relics of the deceased, Mr. Yokoyama's child has no descendants, if there are any items related to him, it should be the only place where you can find them."

The village chief didn't make a promise with Bai Chen, but just put forward his own rational suggestion, but this clue is also crucial to Bai Chen.

"Then please lead the way."

......

418 Mary VS Darkley

At night, the sky was cloudless, and the bright moonlight covered the whole world without any cover.

In the quiet mine, Ma Li followed Bai Chen's footsteps, and with the help of the moonlight, she walked carefully, for fear that she would accidentally step into a pothole.

"Is it really in such a remote place... ordinary people can't find this kind of place at all..."

Although it is not as difficult to find a way out as in the dense forest area, there are several similar boulders within two steps, and there are potholes everywhere, so it is quite difficult to find a specific location.

and......

"Teacher Bai Chen, you're lost again, right..."
