Pokémon, hatching a Nergigante at the beginning

In the corner of the arena, Lillie looked at her dragon.

Hong Long has completed most of his growth at this moment, and his originally yellow-orange skin gradually turned into dark red.

The body length has also grown amazingly, from 23 meters to 32 meters.

One thing worth mentioning is that Bai Chen also gave the [Ultimate Aura] move to Honglong.

Boom Dragon can also rely on the power of the ultimate aura to help Lillie frighten other monsters in the future.

"Lilia, you can."

Bai Chen walked towards Lillie, calling Lillie's name from all the way.

However, Lillie's expression changed drastically after hearing Bai Chen's voice.

She turned to Bai Chen and shouted, "Don't come near me!"

"Ah?" Bai Chen froze on the spot.

This was the first time Lillie spoke to him so loudly.

Bai Chen asked a little confused: "What happened?"

Lillie reacted after a brief panic. She lowered her head and hesitated: "Hug, I'm sorry, I don't really want to be close to you right now."

During the four days in the Valley of Miasma, she had no chance to take a bath at all, and now she was almost soaked by the putrid smell of the corpses.

On the way back, she sat in front of Bai Chen. In order to prevent Bai Chen from smelling her scent, she used her mind power to cover her body.

This was the first time she had used telekinesis to do such a delicate thing. At that time, the thickness of the shield was only about the thickness of a piece of paper. She was confident that Bai Chen did not notice that she had generated a telekinesis shield at that time.

"Ha" Bai Chen hadn't caught up with Lillie's thinking speed yet. He just thought that he might have done something to make Lillie angry, "If I did something to make you angry, I'll apologize to you first." "

"No, no, Mr. Bai, you did nothing wrong." Lillie understood that Bai Chen had misunderstood. She quickly explained, then changed the subject and asked Bai Chen, "Mr. Bai, do you have anything to ask me about?"

The two of them are now almost 100 meters apart, and they basically talk by shouting.

Bai Chen subconsciously approached Lillie.

But he was suddenly stopped by Lillie's loud 'reprimand': "Just stand there and talk! There's no need to get close!"

Bai Chen stopped.

He finally noticed something.

"It can't be the smell on my body, right? But because of my synchronization with nature, generally speaking, I won't have any smell even if I don't need to take a shower."

Bai Chen raised his arm and smelled it, but didn't smell any strange smell.

Seeing this, Lillie took two or three steps back. She wanted to end the topic quickly now.

"So is there anything you can do for me?"

"I want you to help write a research report on the Dracula, and then find a time to submit it to the investigation team."

"I understand, I will help later. But before that, I will go home first and I will be back in about three or four hours. Honglong and the others will temporarily ask you to take care of them."

After speaking, Lillie bowed to Bai Chen very respectfully. She put her trainer's belt on the ground and left the arena with her Magearna in a hurry.

He looked at Lillie leaving and the belt that Lillie placed on the ground.

Bai Chen walked over helplessly and picked up the belt from the ground.

"Forget it, just in time to solve the problem of the Tyrannosaurus while Lillie is busy."

During the three days underground, the Tyrannosaurus Rex never came out once.

He must be going crazy with hunger by now.

With that said, Bai Chen called for the Nergigante and other ancient dragons, and then threw the monster ball of the Tyrannosaurus Rex.

Next comes the righteous suppression.

On the other side, Lillie hurried home and found the bath supplies she brought from the Pokémon world.

Lillie came to the kitchen, where there was an iron bucket that could be used for one person to take a bath.

The Star Stronghold is in short supply of materials, and space is also in short supply. For example, building a large bathhouse is too difficult for the stronghold.

Bathing is considered a very luxurious thing in the stronghold. According to her understanding, male hunters only take a bath once every half a month, and most of the bathing places are by small rivers or seaside.

As for the female hunters and the female receptionist at the gathering place, she didn't know.

The proportion of female hunters is very small, and she has not had a detailed chat with those people.

Just as Lillie was preparing to boil water for a bath, there was a sudden knock on the door of her home.

Lillie had no choice but to put on her coat and go to open the door. She thought it was Bai Chen who had come back and opened the door. Unexpectedly, it was Ila who was outside the door.

Their eyes met, both of them were a little surprised.

Ila looked at Lillie up and down. Seeing that Lillie seemed to have just gotten up from the bed, she showed an expression that I understand and apologized: "Sorry for disturbing you."

Lillie's cheeks turned rosy quickly, and she quickly explained: "It's not what you think! Mr. Bai is in the arena, and I just returned from a mission and was just going to take a bath!"

"Haha, it seems you haven't progressed to that point yet." Ila said with an ambiguous expression.

With just one word, Lillie's desire to win was aroused.

She retorted angrily: "I will not give up Mr. Bai to anyone."

"Yes, yes." Ella smiled, and she finally told the reason for her visit.

Ella called the Elcats behind her, and the two Elcats were carrying a medium-sized treasure box.

Yi La said: "This is the mission bonus from Mr. Bai's completion of the mission a few days ago, and the gold coins from the sale of materials, a total of 323,219 gold coins. Is it okay to give this gold coin to you?"

"It doesn't matter." Lillie was not polite and directly put the treasure box into the Golden Palace.

Yi La asked: "Don't you want to check it out?"

"It has been counted and there is no problem with the quantity."

As long as the gold coins enter the Golden Palace, the number will be accurately calculated, and Lillie does not need to manually count them at all.

Ila is also well-informed. Bai Chen was outrageous before, but Lillie's abnormalities are nothing now.

She said: "It's really a convenient ability. By the way, your bath water hasn't been boiled yet? Do you want to take a bath together? I'm just going to take a bath tonight."

"Let's take a bath together? Isn't there a large bathhouse in the stronghold?" Lillie had already understood this.

"There is indeed no big bathhouse, but there are still places for ladies to take a bath."

Ila did not explain in detail, but just said: "Come with me first, and you will know when we get there."

Lillie packed her things hesitantly, and she followed Ila to the star ship on the top floor.

At night, there were ten hunters on the star ship. They sat together in twos and threes, drinking and chatting.

Lillie wrapped her whole body with telekinesis, and she followed closely behind Ella.

At the same time, she also had a doubt, that is, is there really a bathhouse here in the assembly hall? ? And it’s so close to the venue.

"Don't be nervous, there is indeed a bathhouse here, but only us women know about it."

Ella took Lillie to the open-air cockpit on the second floor of the Star Ship. Because it was slightly far away from the venue, the noisy sounds of the hunters could only be heard here.

Directly opposite the two of them, there was a door.

The most luxuriously decorated communication room was right under their feet.

"Here is" Lillie seemed to have seen this kind of room door before.

"This is a specially renovated special cabin."

Ella took out a key and skillfully unlocked the door outside the room.

Pushing open the door, you will see a whole wall of supply boxes.

It's said to be a special cabin, but it looks more like a warehouse?

"This way." After Ila closed the door and locked it, she found a gap in the middle of the supply boxes that could accommodate one person and greeted Lillie.

Lillie followed Ella through the gap between the supply boxes.

After passing through this pile of supply boxes, the originally crowded space suddenly opened up.

This special cabin is divided into two floors. The two of them are now standing on the wooden board on the second floor. Standing in front of the railing, they can have a panoramic view of the rooms on the first floor.

Lillie turned back and looked at the mountain of supply boxes.

Although there are not as many supply boxes on the first floor as there are on the second floor, they are still piled up.

Ella explained: "This special cabin was previously occupied by the Grand Leader, but later because the Star Ship was transformed into a meeting place, and for various reasons, this special cabin became abandoned."

Ella took Lillie along the stairs to the first floor area.

After passing through these stacked supply boxes, the two came to the balcony door on the north side.

Ila opened the door with a swipe.

Outside, the strong wind from the top of the mountain blew hot steam into the house.

Lillie looked at the hot spring in front of her in surprise?

To be precise, it should be a man-made bathhouse, and it was transformed from a viewing pool.

Because it is located on a mountain peak, you can also see the beautiful scenery in the distance from here.

"Is this a hot spring?" Lillie asked quietly.

Ila waved her hand and said: "It's not a hot spring, it's just a slightly modified pool to connect it to the workshop and provide uninterrupted hot water."

“This is really amazing”

Lillie really didn't expect that there would be a bathhouse similar to a hot spring here.

Ella said: "It's just reusing resources. This room has been vacant and used as a warehouse, so we asked the Commander-in-Chief to allow us to transform the viewing pool in this room into a bathhouse."

"I see."

Ella pointed to the clothes rack in the room and said, "Just put the clothes there. You can use them here as you like. No other men will be able to come in."

"yes."

Lillie couldn't bear it anymore, and she wanted to take a bath as soon as possible.

She had just taken off her clothes when a finger suddenly slipped across her back.

“The skin is so smooth~”

Lillie was startled. She screamed and immediately turned her back to Ila, her expression showing some caution.

"Miss Ella?!"

Looking at Lillie who was blushing, Ila smiled mischievously and said, "I'm not going to tease you anymore. Can I help you rub your back?"

Lillie hesitated for a moment.

She had never had anyone rub her back.

But thinking that her body was soaked in miasma, she reluctantly agreed.

"Then I'll trouble you?"

"There is no need to use honorifics, just call me Ella. Likewise, I will also call you Lillie."

"Yes, then I'll leave it to you, Yi La, little Yi La."

"You are welcome."

Ella also took off her clothes.

Looking at Ella's figure, Lillie looked down at her own.

Boys should all like bigger ones, right? I'm not much younger either.

Ila noticed Lillie's gaze, and she was a little shy and said: "Being stared at like this, even I would feel shy."

"Sorry." Lillie immediately looked away.

After putting the clothes away, Ila rubbed Lillie's back as promised.

While helping, Ila suddenly apologized to Lillie: "I'm really sorry for what happened the past few days."

Lillie recalled how she was jealous of Ella on the star ship nine days ago.

It was true that both of them brought some trouble to Bai Chen at that time.

But even so, Ila shouldn't apologize to herself when she apologizes.

Ella explained: "Actually, Master Bai already rejected me four months ago. And I still did those things in that situation."

Only then did Lillie realize that Bai Chen had rejected Yi La four months ago.

"But even if you apologize, you shouldn't apologize to me."

Yi La shook her head and said calmly: "At that time, Mr. Bai told me that he already had someone he liked. At first, I thought it was his refusal. After all, I investigated his information and found that he was almost a person in the old continent. People live, let alone love or something.

It wasn't until I met you that I confirmed that Mr. Bai really had someone he liked. When it was confirmed at that time, I felt a little unconvinced, which is why the incident happened. I'm really sorry"

Lillie didn't have time to be shy when she heard this. She grabbed the key point of Yi La's words and asked: "Have you investigated Mr. Bai's information??"

"Well, I spent a lot of money and a lot of effort. I even asked my master to find out the information. From the time Mr. Bai was born as a child to the time he grew up, the connections around him I’ve heard about it.”

Lillie's heart trembled slightly.

Ella seems to be more terrifying than she imagined!

Lillie struggled for a moment, and she was really curious. She asked, "Do you mind sharing it with me? Of course I can pay for it."

"You don't have to pay for it, just think of it as my apology."

Ella generously shared the news she had learned with Lillie.

"According to the information I received, Mr. Bai comes from Mashana Village. He has been predicted to be the 'Knight of Hope' since he was born. It is said that when the world faces a crisis in the future, he will bring hope of reversal to the world. "

Lillie had heard this news from El Cat before.

Lillie asked: "Do you know why Mr. Bai came to the New World? Since he is the 'Knight of Hope', wouldn't it be better to stay in Mashana Village? Why was he sent to the New World?"

"This is troublesome to explain. You come from a different world. Let me briefly talk about the background first. In fact, the profession of 'knight' has only been known to a small extent in the past ten years. Before that, knights lived in seclusion. In the deep mountains, there are few cases of contact with hunters. Some tribes even have regulations that prohibit knights from leaving the village. They are worried that coexisting with monsters will not be accepted by outsiders. "

This is easy to understand.

While almost everyone is hostile to monsters and regards monsters as enemies, there are some people who empathize with monsters and coexist with them. When ordinary people see these people, most of them will not feel at ease, but will feel fear, and even regard the knights as monsters.

"But as the number of knights increased and the scope of activities of hunters expanded, the profession of knights gradually became known to more and more people, and its acceptance was much better than at the beginning. The Hunter Guild also naturally cultivated The knights' villages have developed closer ties."

Ella briefly explained the background.

She continued: "As for why Lord Bai came to the New World, according to my guess, there is a high probability that the higher-ups of the guild also want to see how much role the knights can play in exploration, and want more people to accept it. The knight profession. As a pilot, the New World Investigation Team is the best choice. Every hunter here is selected through the most stringent selection of the guild, so there is no need to worry about everyone's character. "

After listening, Lillie finally understood what the Hunter Guild was thinking.

"It turns out that the number of knights is so small. I thought it was quite a lot."

Yi La said: "The threshold for knights is much higher than that for hunters. According to my understanding, children in Mashana Village can choose to participate in the village's awakening ceremony when they reach 14 or 15 years old. At that time, the village chief will give the newcomers They distribute monster eggs, and then the newcomers use the bonding stone to contract their first follower beast.”

Lillie was familiar with this system.

The same is true in the Pokémon world. When children reach their age, they will go to a research institute near their home to pick up their first partner.

What Ella said next is the key point.

Yi La said: "There is another requirement in the awakening ceremony. If someone cannot contract a follower beast during the awakening ceremony, then it is basically certain that that person will never be a knight in this life. As far as I know, this is the first time for Master Bai to participate During the contract ceremony, there will be no successful contract with any of the following beasts.”

Lillie was shocked.

Bai Chen, who has now conquered five ancient dragons, didn't contract any follower beasts when he made the first contract back then? ?

Isn't this too outrageous?

"Isn't this possible?"

"From our current point of view, it does seem incredible. But that's the fact. No matter how hard everyone in Mashana Village tried, Master Bai never contracted any monsters, nor did he become a knight."

Lillie was a little confused.

Since the guild wanted to see if the knights could play a greater role, why did they send Bai Chen, who had no followers, to the new world?

She asked Ira: "Since Mr. Bai could not become a knight, why did Mashana Village send him to the new world in the end? And the Hunter Guild also listed Mr. Bai as a member of the recommended group?"

Ira sighed helplessly: "This is where the doubt lies. Even if I asked my master, I didn't get any reasonable explanation. Maybe the guild saw the potential of Mr. Bai?"

"It seems that there are still many mysteries about Mr. Bai. I don't know when I can visit his hometown."

"It shouldn't be too long. As far as I know, Mashana Village has undergone a lot of changes recently. They should find a way to recall the 'Knight of Hope' soon."
