He knows Pokémon better than me

the next day.

Near dusk, several people had arrived in front of a lush jungle...Compared with the bare mountain rocks on their side, they seemed full of vitality.

"Xixi...!"

Faintly, you can still hear the sound of the grass scurrying in front of you. It seems that there are many Pokémon inhabiting in front of you.

"It's finally here...!"

Xiaozhi couldn't help sighing with emotion, and let out a long sigh of relief.

After walking for two days, it was full of bare mountain scenery, and he didn't even see a wild Pokémon, which made him quite annoyed.

There is also the power of waveguide to practice along the way.

Now Xiaozhi has entered the boring proficiency link of the second stage. He is not good at precision control and so on. It takes a certain amount of time to slowly improve.

After the second stage is completed, the application operations of the third stage, such as rubbing missiles... will only come naturally.

"Well, this is the outermost edge of the World's Beginning Tree... I probably only went in a few hundred meters last time."

Qi Duo put her hips on her hips, untied her luggage, with an expectant look on her face.

It was getting late, and the few people planned to camp and rest at this handover point today, and wait for tomorrow to enter the exploration.

When I looked closely, the fog that had been lingering gradually dissipated.

It was only then that Xiaozhi realized that the "towering giant tree" in front of him was the legendary tree of the beginning of the world, but it was not a tree... but a mountain in the shape of a giant tree.

The root is slightly narrower, and gradually extends and spreads around when walking towards the top, forming a mushroom-like shape.

The taupe mountain rocky surface is covered with lush green vegetation.

But because the mountain is too large and towering, from a distance, it looks more like a mushroom-shaped boulder covered with little moss.

Just staying on the periphery and looking around, Xiaozhi felt a desolate and ethereal atmosphere.

It seems that it contains the origin mystery of everything, ancient and mysterious...

"It's a strange feeling... No wonder it's called the Tree of the Beginning of the World."

In his impression, he had never heard of such an existence.

The legend of the original tree of the world is only passed down by word of mouth among the locals of Orudolan, and it is rarely brought outside.

...

clatter...!

Beside, Qiduo finished setting up camp and opened the large tool bag she carried with her.

Whoosh! !

Whoosh! !

In the operation room, several small drones flew up immediately, as if they were about to fly into the tree of origin to explore in advance.

"Aww...!!"

However, Lucario, who had been meditating beside him, thought it was a dangerous operation, and suddenly showed a ruthless expression, blocking the way of the drone.

With a vigilant expression, he clenched his claws, trying to smash these machines.

He just wanted to go into the depths, to find out about Aaron's answer...and he didn't want to destroy the peace here.

In the past few days, Xiaozhi can be trusted, but this human woman, Lucario has not completely let go of his guard.

"Lucario, I have no malicious intentions... These drones are not aggressive, will not have any impact on the local ecological environment, and will not even disturb the life of Pokémon here."

Qi Duo explained very sincerely.

She's not that ambitious...just an adventurer who simply desires to explore the world.

"At most, drones will mine some lifeless vegetation and rocks, and bring them back as research materials..."

When Xiaozhi heard it, it seemed that there was really no problem, right?

And in such a big environment here, there are no evil villains like Team Rocket trying to do something bad.

It's impossible for a catastrophe to happen because of the intrusion of a few of them, right?

"It's okay, Guidance Lu, don't be so vigilant...Eat a piece of chocolate to calm the fire."

Xiao Zhi comforted with a smile, and handed over a piece of chocolate.

"..."

Lucario's vigilant and serious eyes swept over the two of them, and then he gradually let go of his hostility, allowing these drones to enter the tree of the beginning of the world.

He took Xiaozhi's chocolate and walked aside to eat it.

The dense and thick taste is clearly a top-level delicacy, but it gave him a sense of guilt as if he was swallowing poison...but this temptation is hard to resist.

...

While operating the drone through the jungle, while looking at the traces of chocolate at the corner of Lucario's mouth, Qi Duo frowned deeply.

"Xiaozhi, dogs shouldn't eat chocolate, right?"

There are some ingredients in chocolate that dogs cannot digest, which can have unpredictable consequences for their bodies.

With Lucario's weight, if he ate five pieces of chocolate in his hand, he should die suddenly on the spot.

"Is there such a saying...and isn't Lucario a wolf?"

Xiaozhi replied in a daze.

"There's not much difference between a wolf and a dog..."

Qi Duo frowned slightly, and said.

She is a professional outdoor adventurer and is quite sensitive to these hazards and taboos.

"That shouldn't be a big problem...Lucario is a steel-type Pokémon, immune to poison."

Xiaozhi backhanded and gave a reasonable explanation from the perspective of Pokémon fighting.

Well, if there is any problem, Lucario's body should be hardened and cold by now.

Because Lucario ate a lot of chocolate yesterday.

Perhaps it is because the race is inherently unable to enjoy chocolate, as the only steel-attributed dog, Lucario is so obsessed with this taboo taste?

Qi Duo: "..."

It seems that this is indeed the truth?

Putting down his backpack, Xiaozhi remembered that he still had an elf egg that was about to hatch.

There is a high probability of hatching Lucario's degenerated form - Riolu, or... Masana.

Riolu doesn't have the steel attribute. If it eats chocolate, something will happen, but the evolved Lucario will be fine if he eats it.

In this way, his conjecture should be confirmed.

Xiaozhi suddenly became excited, he seemed to have come up with a rigorous academic paper by accident!

"Research on steel attribute Pokémon not getting food poisoning!" "

"But there's only one Riolu, so I can't experiment at all..."

His expression quickly collapsed again, and he shook his head, temporarily dispelling the thought.

...

After dinner, Lucario sat quietly on a high place to meditate.

Qi Duo was operating and watching the shooting angle from the drone, while communicating with her companions.

"Unbelievable, Qi Duo, this place seems to be an amazing place...!"

The logistics researcher named Banks, through the data screen sent back by the drone, was amazed again and again from a distance.

However, drones are still at the outermost periphery and need to go deeper.

"..."

Xiaozhi, on the other hand, imitated Lucario's appearance, sitting aside and meditating to hone his waveguide power.

Next, he is going to the Sinnoh area, and I don't know if Brother Chi will go with him.

If you can't go together, the latter also reminded himself to find a powerful partner Pokémon who can rescue him in times of crisis.

"Then why can't this partner be me...?"

Xiaozhi secretly made up his mind to raise his waveguide power to a level before going to the Shenao area...

At least to the extent that it can rub out wave missiles!
