I, the Pokémon Master, now resign

Bai Chen had thought about working part-time to earn money, but in the end it was only at the level of ideas. After all, it is not acceptable to employ child labor. Who would ask a child to work in his own shop in exchange for wages?

"Could it be that if I give up my dream, I can go back to my previous life..."

Lying down again, he stretched out his hand towards the illusory sky, but he grabbed it lightly but found nothing, only the air slipped away from his palm.

Which is more important, your dream, your normal life, and your normal relationships...

Bai Chen couldn't come to a conclusion, both of them were very important to him, and they couldn't be replaced.

He longs to go back to his former family, where there are no quarrels, only the plain but warm daily life; he longs to go back to the place where he went out to play with his friends, talked about his dreams and hopes in the park, and pretended to fight against each other by playing different roles time.

Those are his most precious memories, and those memories were completely shattered with the quarrels at home.

"Who can tell me, what should I do... what should I do—!"

Shouting without any scruples to vent his emotions, the pain from his teeth went straight to his brain, and a sense of powerlessness and coldness enveloped his whole body.

He doesn't want to see it anymore... He doesn't want to see the alienated eyes cast by those people of the same age, and he doesn't want to hear the gossip-style criticism from those aunts. What he wants ...just an answer, an answer that gave him a choice.

......

122 Vines and Ivy Snakes in Tall Grass

Who can give an answer that allows him to make a choice?

Bai Chen, who was only seven years old, thought so in his heart, but no one should be able to fulfill this wish for him. In Leiwen City, he had already lost everything he could communicate with, and his friends of the same age were far away from him. It is inevitable to face cold eyes with his mother, or even quarrel again. He doesn't know anyone else in Leiwen City. Even if Bai Chen is eager to find someone to express his thoughts, this may be just a wonderful vision after all.

The breeze passed through the branches and leaves in the forest, and Bai Chen, who suddenly closed his eyes, seemed to hear other movements from the sound of the wind.

Not a natural sound, it feels more like...

"Pokemon?"

Bai Chen got up and walked out of the short-term depression. Although the boredom in his heart has not dissipated, Bai Chen who can't find anything to do now can only rely on these to distract himself.

"It feels... like a battle...?"

In his ears, he seemed to hear the explosion caused by the collision of skills, as well as the muffled sound when he fell down. So far, Bai Chen was basically sure that there was a fight not far from the entrance of the forest.

But even so...

"..."

Bai Chen fell silent. At this moment, in his heart, two thoughts were constantly arguing.

In the end to go in or not to go in?

Before becoming a Pokémon trainer, or owning your own Pokémon, the wild forest is definitely not a place where you should set foot on it casually.What's more, the forest in Leiwen City has not been officially guaranteed, saying that there are no harmful Pokémon in it, so if Bai Chen breaks into the forest at will out of curiosity, if he encounters any relatively strong territory Even Pokémon with consciousness cannot avoid being expelled or even injured.

But at the same time, there seemed to be an inexplicable idea in his mind——

Why am I afraid of getting hurt?

Anyway, I can only live in a dull atmosphere when I go home, and no one wants to communicate with me when I go back to the park. If this is the case, why not just try to take an adventure?Isn't it strange that you want to be the best Pokémon trainer, but you haven't even seen a close-range Pokémon battle?

The two completely different ideas were still colliding, perhaps because the fighting sounds from the forest became louder, Bai Chen finally made up his mind.

"Who is afraid of whom..."

Even if I don't have the qualifications to run away from home and become a trainer on my own, don't I even have the qualifications to break into the forest?

Curiosity seemed to be suffocating, as a child, Bai Chen finally succumbed to curiosity and competitiveness, and trotted all the way towards the interior of the forest.

△

The forest area on the back of Raven City is not small, and there should be quite a variety of Pokémon living there. It is precisely because of the difficulty of investigation and common sense considerations that the Raven City Alliance officials think that this A forest should be inhabited by dangerous Pokémon like forests in other regions.

As the entertainment capital of Leiwen City, people who live here will run into the forest without incident during the day. There are so many modern entertainment facilities in the city. If you want to watch Pokémon, there is also a dedicated arena for them. Watch, under such conditions, who would risk injury and run to the forest to find Pokémon?The only people who would do this in Raven City were those who dreamed of being a trainer.

"Susu~"

Following the direction where the sound came from, Bai Chen walked all the way forward, constantly using his hands to push aside the bushes and haystacks in front of him, making bursts of sound in the woods.

"It's right in front..."

Bai Chen murmured to himself in a low voice, and the speed of progress began to slow down.

Although he really doesn't care whether he will be injured or not, it is best to avoid the situation that can be avoided. If he really goes back with an injury at that time, it may cause another unnecessary dispute Yes, Bai Chen has long felt physically and mentally exhausted.

"Ok?"

Just as Bai Chen was expecting what kind of Pokémon he would meet this time, suddenly there was another loud noise coming from directly in front of him, followed by smoke that drifted from a distance, mixed with scattered gravel If Bai Chen didn't get down on the ground and hold his breath in time, he might be discovered right now.

Such a strong force... This guy doesn't seem to be simple...

It was the first time he felt the power of a Pokémon battle head-on, and Bai Chen couldn't help becoming excited in his heart. After pushing away the tall grass blocking his eyes, he finally saw a wide open forest. There are two Pokémon facing each other in the open space, and their group is surrounded by them.

"Vine snake?"

Seeing more than a dozen scattered figures, Bai Chen whispered their names.

Although he guessed the identity of the Pokémon he was fighting on the road, he never imagined that the one he was fighting was actually the Vine Snake... No, it should be the Vine Snake and its evolution, the Ivy Snake.

As one of the three Pokmon of the newcomer trainer in the Hezhong area, Bai Chen would not say that he didn't know it, but what he didn't expect was that there would be so many rattan snakes scattered in this place. Just because it's a newcomer Pokémon doesn't mean it's common.

On the contrary, it will generally become the initial partner of a newcomer trainer, which already shows that those Pokémon are relatively rare. Although it is not as rare as Pokémon such as a single-headed dragon, the rattan snake is definitely not easy to meet Object.

They are generally used to living in tall grass, relying on their green bodies to hide their whereabouts or attack passing opponents. If the rattan snakes did not take the initiative to come to the door, it would take a lot of effort to subdue them .

But then again, it's strange, is the rattan snake a social Pokémon?Did I remember wrongly?

Just when Bai Chen was thinking this way, the situation on the court changed again. The rattan snake, who was already half kneeling on the ground, suddenly stood up with his hands folded around his chest. Although he was on the disadvantaged side, this But it didn't affect its mood at all. When facing the condescending Ivy Snake, it still maintained its proud appearance, as if it would never give in.

......

123 Unwilling to surrender, the will of the rattan snake

"..."

Looking at the appearance of the rattan snake, Bai Chen couldn't help but feel a little moved. Didn't it choose to give up when the opponent was his evolutionary form?

In the official Pokémon battle commanded by the trainer, the factors that determine the outcome of the battle come from many aspects, such as the command of the trainer, the arrangement of tactics, and the comprehensive ability of the Pokémon.

However, when there is a duel between wild Pokémon, there are often only two factors that determine the final outcome, one is the level, and the other is the attribute.

It is obviously impossible for the Vine Snake to have an advantage in terms of level when facing the Ivy Snake, and both sides are grass-type Pokémon in terms of attributes. It is impossible for the Vine Snake to defeat the opponent, because it seems that it has already used up all its hole cards and entered the stage of exhaustion, but the Ivy Snake still seems to be able to do a job with ease, and I am afraid that there are still hands left, or explain......

"Aren't you willing to go all out when facing an opponent who is weaker than you..."

Although it is not him who is fighting on the field, once he puts himself in his place, Bai Chen feels a little uncomfortable. To put water in a battle is to put it nicely that the opponent is letting you go, and to put it badly is the opponent at all. I look down on you.

Bai Chen also understands that this is a battle between wild Pokémon. In theory, it doesn't matter whether you use your full strength or not. It would be bad if there was a way to recover.

For Pokémon trainers, the alliance also has clear regulations. If the opponent is seriously injured in the process of fighting with wild Pokmon, and it is almost life-threatening, the trainer who caused all this within his ability should be It must be treated, otherwise it will be disqualified as a trainer.

But even if Bai Chen knew this, he was really angry...

Although the vine snake maintained its proud attitude, the tiredness and pain between its brows could not be hidden at all, which also revealed its dissatisfaction with the vine snake. It was always in a state of being mocked from the beginning to the end, no matter what it did. The opponent's offensive will be resolved by the opponent, grab it with its tail and be thrown out; or the opponent will deliberately deflect the skill when attacking, and only rub against its body. I can't support it now.

"Ser~"

In the clearing, the Ivy Snake looked at the already scarred Ivy Snake, let out a soft cry again, and stretched out its tail, which was a sign of hope to end the battle.

"Sni..."

Facing Ivy Snake's overtures, Ivy Snake did not respond, but still had that firm and proud look in its eyes, showing its determination to continue fighting.

Bai Chen's position is enough for him to see everything on the field clearly. He thought it was a fight caused by some dispute, but looking at the appearance of the Ivy Snake, it seems that this is not the case?Could it be said that this battle was provoked by the rattan snake?

Feeling more curious and uneasy about the current situation, Bai Chen watched the rattan snake nervously, as if expecting something, but the facts proved that all persistence was meaningless given the difference in strength.

"Ser!"

Once again, the favor was rejected, and the Ivy Snake finally lost his patience, and bursts of swirls of leaves and grass burst out from its flicking tail.

Grass mixer.

"Sni!"

Facing the attack that no longer released any water, but directly attacked itself, the corner of the Vine Snake's mouth finally showed a satisfied smile, and then flicked its tail, using the same skill to face the Ivy Snake head-on to fight.

"boom--!"

The grass stirrers collided in a violent explosion, kicking up showers of gravel and dust.

Just as Bai Chen thought, in a duel between wild Pokémon, there are usually only two factors that can determine the final outcome: level and attribute.

When facing the green grass mixer of the Ivy Snake, the Ivy Snake did not choose to use other methods to resolve the gap in strength between the two, but chose to face up to the difficulties and tried to return the color with the same moves.

Really, there are enough stupid ah.

Looking at the back of the rattan snake, Bai Chen couldn't help thinking blankly.

......

There was not a long stalemate between the two skills. Given the difference in level and physical strength, the grass blender used by the rattan snake was quickly crushed by the opponent, and the whirlwind of grass directly hit the rattan snake's body. After letting out a painful cry, the vine snake's weak body was swept back by the wind nest of the grass mixer.

boom--!

The vine vine snake slammed into the big tree behind, the impact was so strong that it even made the tree shake a few times, but the power of the grass blender did not stop because of this, and the vine vine snake was hit At the same time as the tree trunk, the grass mixer is still constantly squeezing its body, constantly bringing new injuries to its already wounded body.

"Sni..."

After uttering a powerless groan at the end, the vine snake finally couldn't hold on, and passed out in the vortex of the grass blender, and at this moment, the grass blender finally stopped moving forward. It drifted away in the wind.

"..."

The body of the rattan snake lay powerlessly on the grass, Bai Chen just watched everything quietly, and after confirming that everything was over, he knelt down in the tall grass as if he had lost his strength, a little absent-minded His eyes didn't know whether it was because he was stimulated by seeing such a battle or because the action of the rattan snake had brought him too much impact.

In the open space, the onlookers shook their heads and left the scene after seeing that the challenged rattan snake had completely passed out.

"Ser..."

Looking at the completely limp body of its opponent, the Ivy Snake was thoughtful, as if hesitating, but in the end it still chose to leave.

The open space where fierce battles took place just now fell into a dead silence again, only the sound of the wind and Bai Chen's heavy breathing echoed in the tall grass.

"This vine snake, what is it..."

Bai Chen, who finally managed to recover from his coma, finally took a deep breath to calm himself down a bit. It was the first time he watched a Pokémon battle at such a close distance, and it was a battle that fully demonstrated the cruelty of fighting in the wild. Bai Chen couldn't help it. It would take some time to digest it if he didn't admit it, but at this moment he suddenly realized the most important thing——

"By the way, what about the rattan snake?! Nothing will happen, right?"

124 I also have my choice

Bai Chen, who had only considered the state of the rattan snake, made sure that the rattan snake and the other rattan snakes had left, then he got up and ran towards the defeated rattan snake.

Running to the side of the rattan snake, Bai Chen knelt down to check its injuries.

"Is it so badly hurt..."

Large and small wounds spread all over the rattan snake's body. If he hadn't witnessed the whole process with his own eyes, Bai Chen would have thought that it had encountered unilateral and deliberate bullying.

Obviously, the Ivy Snake's attack did not hit it directly as much as possible, and it had deliberately adjusted its trajectory to dodge, but the Ivy Snake still suffered such injuries. From here, Bai Chen can probably guess how long they have been fighting with each other. time.

"No, you have to treat it quickly!"

Although I don't know if the vine and vine snakes live together, but just judging from the other party's reaction, Bai Chen at least understands that this vine and vine snake seems to be no longer accepted by them, and all this comes from This guy's unique arrogance.

Although the group of vine snakes is generally proud, it seems that such extreme cases as this vine snake are really rare.

"Are you okay? Hold on, I'll take you to treatment now..."

After approaching the rattan snake, he seemed to find that the opponent's eyelids were twitching slightly, and he still retained a little consciousness, so Bai Chen imitated what he had seen on TV before, first calming down its emotions, and then reaching out his hand to hug it. up it, but...

"Crack~"

"?"

The crisp sound echoed in the forest, Bai Chen looked at the palm of his hand that was slapped by the rattan snake's tail, and was a little lost in thought.

"Sni..."

Obviously the injuries on his body were already so serious, but the rattan snake forcefully supported his body and stood up as if he didn't care at all, maintaining a vigilant posture towards Bai Chen.

Are you guarding against me?still in...

Generally speaking, wild Pokémon are not very willing to approach humans. Bai Chen is also self-aware of this, but the rattan snake is currently in the stage of serious injury?If such an injury is left alone, it will be life-threatening, right?Obviously it just fell out with its "companions", even if it can find herbs to treat the wound with its own strength, it can't deal with it alone, right?

Just leave it alone and something will happen.

Although the palm slapped by the rattan snake was still faintly painful, Bai Chen didn't care, but continued to say with a strong posture: "Don't worry, I won't do anything to you, just take you to Leiwen City You are only receiving treatment at the Pokémon Center. You are alone, right? If you don’t have a companion, your wounds can’t be treated at all, right? Just one click, and I’ll bring you back as soon as the treatment is over, please Trust me, okay..."
