Not a Trainer This Time

Chapter 235 Arrival at Zero Zone Research Institute! New possibilities?

Zhi Shu looked at the roaring tail from a distance.

“…From the current point of view, it is far more difficult to conquer the paradoxical Pokémon than I imagined.”

“Not only because Paradox Pokémon are violent and aggressive in nature, but also because they cannot communicate with people like normal Pokémon and cannot understand what I mean.”

 In addition to conquering it by violence, is there any other way?

At this time, Naoki suddenly remembered that he had made a series of reverse dishes using Giratina's water of the reverse world.

 But the problem comes again.

Although there is a reversal dish that can reverse the character of Roaring Tail.

 However, Giratina recovered quickly last time. Does this mean that the effect of the food is not permanent?

  If he brought Howling Tail back and briefly reversed its temperament, making it obedient, then if one day he wasn't paying attention, Howling Tail would return to its true nature...

Zhi Shu didn’t dare to gamble.

He was tangled in his heart for a moment, and then he let Gu Ledun tighten his grip. He stepped forward and gave his roaring tail a hard stroke.

He didn't let go until he was satisfied with his grip. Then he took out the Poke Ball and put it against Roar Tail's body. He first put it into it, and then activated the release function of the Poke Ball.

 A beam of red light flashed, and Roartail's figure left the Poké Ball.

It growled low and bared its teeth in a threatening manner.

 “Aaaah!”

Seeing this, Leden roared loudly, and the terrifying aura turned into a strong wind and swept towards the roaring tail.

Tending to biological instinct, Howler Tail immediately turned around and ran away, and soon disappeared.

　　　Looking at this scene, Leden breathed a sigh of relief in his heart, just say that! It has never seen this Pokémon in the pasture!

Zhi Shu, on the other hand, ran to Baboo and touched his docile baby. He couldn't help but sigh in his heart: "Modern Pokémon are cuter!"

　　　The Babu woodchuck felt very comfortable being stroked with its fur, and he couldn't help but raise his head and enjoy it.

When Kuailong on the side saw this scene, he also came over to touch it.

 “Okay, touch them all!”

 Zhi Shu began to give a few Pokémon a simple massage.

 They continued to set off after taking a short rest at this second observation station.

This time, Naoki did not continue walking on the ground. He rode on Gulton, preparing to ride it through the Padian Pit in one fell swoop and head to the deepest Zone Zero.

Guluton's descent was extremely fast, and with the sound of the wind, the surrounding scenery was also changing rapidly.

The further down you go, the darker the light becomes. Caves and cliffs can be seen everywhere, and towering waterfalls fall from above. For a moment, Naoki feels as if he has entered another world.

At the same time, the number and size of the strange and incomparable crystals also increased at a speed visible to the naked eye, until Guluton landed on a huge crystal column.

Standing here, Naoki saw the human buildings standing below.

Those must be the research institutes established in Area 0 by the two doctors.

 “Let’s go! Let’s go there!” Naoki said.

 So Leden turned around and looked around, his expression became sluggish, and he looked like he didn't like this place.

But looking at the back of Naoki who was walking in front, it still raised its feet and followed.

“Sure enough, just like in the game, there are a lot of crystals in Area 0.” Naoki looked at the surrounding scene and said to himself.

Logically speaking, it is impossible for sunlight to reach such a deep place.

 But the amazing thing is that this big empty space is so bright and spacious.

There is no doubt that these lights all come from the colored crystals embedded in the ground and walls. The light they release illuminates the entire bottom layer of the pit.

 Continuing to walk forward, some Pokémon that are difficult to encounter in the outside world began to appear in front of them.

Those are Pokémon called "Crystal Bud" and "Crystal Flower".

 They bloom on the crystal, looking mysterious and beautiful.

The number of Crystal Light Flowers is extremely large, and their roots are close to the crystals, as if they are taking root and sprouting from inside.

When Zhi Shu and Gu Ledun walked past them, the group of crystal flowers only moved their petals slightly.

 “The beautiful and bright Taijing bloomed with highly poisonous crystal light flowers...” This looks quite weird.

Zhishu shivered inexplicably and deliberately avoided these crystal flowers and came to a cave entrance that snaked downwards.

There is a sign in front of the cave entrance, which shows that you can reach the research institute by passing through this passage.

“Okay, there should be no danger on the way!”

 Finally arrived here, Zhi Shu couldn't help but breathed a sigh of relief.

 He ​​took Gulledon and continued to move forward, but just as he was passing through this passage, he suddenly saw a mysterious Pokémon on a lonely huge crystal pillar in front of him.

The Pokémon was covered in a layer of green metal armor, with green thorns like thorns protruding from the holes in the armor, forming a complete chain of thorns.

Is that...Bangira's future iron thorn? !

Zhi Shu was stunned for a moment, and at the same time he noticed the Iron Thorn, the Iron Thorn also noticed him and looked over with its cold, emotionless metal eyes.

 Unexpectedly, Iron Briar did not attack immediately like Roaring Tail.

It stood motionless and looked here, its eyes moving as Naoki moved.

“As expected, Iron Thorn has an extremely calm temperament and doesn’t like unnecessary fights...” Naoki said silently.

At this moment, a sound of footsteps came from not far away.

Zhi Shu turned his head and saw Dr. Futu in a white coat walking towards him.

He smiled and said to Zhi Shu: "I saw your figure from the surveillance in Area 0, so I came to pick you up. I am very happy to see you. Zhi Shu, let's go. I will take Qian and Gu Ledun to the research institute. .”

Zhi Shu glanced at the iron thorn, and then walked up to Dr. Futu. He looked back and found that the iron thorn's eyes were still following him.

Dr. Futu noticed this scene, and he explained: "The name of that Pokémon is Iron Thorn, and its behavior pattern is very different from the Roaring Moon you have seen before."

“This Ironthorn has an extremely calm temperament and does not like unnecessary fights. It is a highly intelligent and intelligent Pokémon.”

“At present, I have found some ways to live with it peacefully, so it has been staying in Area Zero during this period.”

 Peaceful coexistence? This surprised Roaring Tails, a savage who had witnessed Roaring Moon's predation and only retained the hunting instinct, and Naoki, who was observing Raichu's Iron Moth like a Ufo.

 “Peaceful coexistence?” he asked incredulously.

"Yes!" Dr. Fotu nodded: "But it is still very difficult to do this. Before you came, we spent a lot of effort to prove to it the harmlessness of humans, and we regularly showed it to it every day. Feeding it food makes it accept our presence." Zhi Shu was confused: "Then why can't the ancient species work?"

Dr. Futu thought for a while and replied: "It may be that the ancient Pokémon are born with a primitive and fundamental violent power. This power makes them wild and difficult to tame."

"Compared with the ancient species, the Pokémon of the future species are not wild, but because the unknown power in them has evolved to the extreme, and their thoughts and intentions are full of unknowns and uncertainties. "

“They are just as dangerous to us as ancient Pokémon.”

“For example, there is a Pokémon named Iron Baggage. It does not attack people, but it uses its baggage to transform the environment and turn the surrounding area into an ice field.”

Zhi Shu suddenly felt a warmth in his heart that was hurt by the ancient species. His eyes lit up and he asked: "So, I can tame the future Pokémon without having to worry about them attacking me?"

 “Only part of it,” Dr. Fotu said with a smile.

 Then, he didn’t know what he thought of, and the expression on his face became serious:

"In addition, if you encounter a Pokémon that looks like Gardevoir or Elledor, do not look at it! Otherwise, this behavior will be considered by it to be provocative, and its temperament is extremely Brutal, if this happens, he will swing his sharp blade at you without hesitation."

 Speaking of this, Dr. Futu showed a happy expression on his face: "I'm very glad that it won't teleport this move, otherwise I wouldn't be able to appear in front of you now."

 “Is it so cruel?” Naoki clicked his tongue.

 “We didn’t expect it either.” Dr. Futu said bitterly.

While talking, the two brought Gu Leden to the front of the research institute.

At this moment, Naoki discovered that there seemed to be more than just Dr. Futu and Dr. Olin among the researchers here, but there were also many researchers wearing white coats.

At this moment, there were two people standing in front of the door with telescopes and notes, observing the iron thorns in the distance.

Their tone was very exciting: "Oh! Look at the look in the eyes of that Iron Thorn, it feels so sensible and smart! It is indeed a Pokémon from the distant future era!"

“Yes! The technology in that place must be much more developed than here!”

When the two heard the footsteps, they immediately put down their telescopes and shouted respectfully: "Doctor!"

 “Hmm.” Dr. Fotu nodded.

The door of the research institute slowly opened, and Naoki followed Futu and walked inside.

 Before the door closed, he heard the two researchers whisper again:

 “Isn’t that Gulerton number one?”

 “I can’t believe it, when Luton was still so obedient, he liked that person very much!”

"Yes! But Gutton and Milton are very special and different from other Paradox Pokémon. Otherwise, the doctor wouldn't be able to establish a relationship with them so quickly."

Gradually, the voices of the two people became farther and farther away, until they could no longer be heard.

The first time he came to a place like this, Naoki felt a little nervous inexplicably. He turned his head and found that Gu Ledun beside him was also very nervous.

Zhi Shu rarely saw Gu Ledun like this, and he suddenly became less nervous. He reached out and touched Gulden's head, and gestured to him with his mouth: "Don't be afraid!"

Huluton didn't make a sound, but rubbed his head against his palm.

 At this time, Dr. Futu led them into a very large room.

A variety of green vegetation is planted in the room, and a meandering river passes through these trees.

There are small flowers blooming on the grass, and a dazzling artificial sun hangs on the top of the room, providing light and heat to these vegetation.

This is like a small ecological park!

This area extended into the distance, but Zhi Shu noticed an obvious dividing line not far away, and guessed that it should be a special projection.

Dr. Olin is standing on the grass now.

Not far in front of her, there was a Pokémon with a bluish-purple body and a dull and cold expression.

That's...Millerton!

The Milton seemed to have noticed something, its pupils moved slightly, and then quickly locked on the sudden appearance of Milton.

After seeing the Milton, the alarm bell suddenly sounded loudly. He looked at the Milton with hostility and roared: "Ah, geez!"

Millerton's expression did not change at all, and the whole person looked like a mechanical creation without vitality and emotion.

 But the trace of electricity emerging from its claws revealed its thoughts.

Seeing that the two Pokémon were about to fight, Naoki quickly said: "So Luton, stop!"

Dr. Olin also stepped forward and stretched out his hand towards Milerton, comforting and signaling: "This is not an enemy. It lives far away and will not compete with you for this land."

Millerton's pupils moved, and the electricity on his paws disappeared.

 Guluton also calmed down after hearing Naoki's voice. It drooped its head and looked very aggrieved.

In desperation, Naoki could only touch it: "Okay, it's okay."

For some reason, the way Gu and Milton looked just now seemed to make him see a big golden retriever dog fighting with an aloof cat.

 So Luton's mood gradually calmed down.

 Naoki then stood up and looked to the opposite side.

 Dr. Olin greeted him with a smile: "Welcome to paradise, Naoki."

“Long time no see, doctor.” Naoki asked politely, “Is Pipa okay?”

Dr. Olin nodded slightly: "Since the last time we had dinner at your place, the relationship between Pipa and us has eased a lot. Now he should be taking care of the Mastiff Godfather at the lighthouse in Little Key Town."

"Okay, don't say any more here." Dr. Futu glanced at the time and said from the side: "It's already five ten now. It's time to go have a meal. After the meal, I will take you to your place of residence. .”

 “Thank you very much.” Naoki said politely.

 Before leaving the ecological park, he looked back at the Milton.

This Milton was different from other Paradox Pokémon he had seen. It seemed to have completely adapted to humans and the world.

Dr. Olin handed over the work to Futu, and then took Naoki to the dining area.

On the way, she spoke slowly: "I feel deeply sorry for your experience on the road, but I hope you won't look at all the paradoxical Pokémon in that way."

Zhishu was slightly startled.

Dr. Olin said softly in a gentle tone: "They have just arrived in this strange environment and have not yet adapted to the world we live in."

"But I believe that one day they will adapt to everything here and live with us like the old and Milton."
