I, the Pokémon Master, now resign

"Good morning, Mr. Bai Chen, I'm sorry I didn't wake you up all this time, because I think you seem very tired... Did you encounter any trouble?"

After seeing Bai Chen, Ms. Joy first apologized for her decision not to wake Bai Chen up, because she knew that Bai Chen was going to watch the game today, but when she walked into the restaurant an hour ago At that time, he saw that Bai Chen's condition was really bad.Not only did he have thick dark circles around his eyes, he was even struggling in pain, and he kept murmuring something, as if he was having a nightmare.

After seeing Bai Chen's appearance, Miss Joy didn't know whether to wake Bai Chen up, but fortunately, Bai Chen didn't struggle for a long time, and his nightmare seemed to be over when she hesitated Yes, after noticing this, Miss Joy quietly left here, wanting to let Bai Chen sleep a little longer.

"Hmm... I don't know if it's troublesome or what, but it's just a small matter that hasn't been clarified yet."

Bai Chen scratched his messy hair, and didn't know how to answer. Miss Joy is also a very important member of the alliance. They have the right to know confidential matters, but after all, even Bai Chen doesn't know what to do. Knowing what the crisis the world was facing, he couldn't immediately answer Miss Joy's question.

"But thank you, it's really important to let me sleep a little longer, otherwise I'd wonder if I have the strength to walk to the scene."

Bai Chen said with a self-deprecating smile, and Miss Joy seemed to have heard the meaning behind his words, so she asked subconsciously.

"So even if the state is so bad, do you have to go to the scene to watch the game?"

"I can't help it~ Responsibility, responsibility..."

Bai Chen shrugged his shoulders like this, and after expressing a word helplessly, he turned around and walked towards the outside slowly, step by step. His wobbly appearance really made people worry that he might collapse in the middle.

"Responsibility, is it..."

Although few people knew about it, Miss Joy from all over the world naturally knew about the feats that Bai Chen had done recently.

Join hands with Dawu to fight against Gulardo and Kioka, and unite Sirona and Kamizlei to face Dialga and Palkia.

Although there is no shadow of Bai Chen in the statement to the outside world, every action of Bai Chen, every action to help the alliance will be recorded in the archives of the alliance by other parties, and only a very few people can watch it. Among the few people, the Junsha and Joy clans are particularly special, because their clan, that is, Miss Junsha and Miss Joy in all places have the right to read the records related to Baichen.

They don't even need to ask, every time the alliance records some of Bai Chen's deeds, it will take the initiative to send them to them. It is obviously such precious information to the outside world, but to them, it is like a street. The novels sold on the side are average, easy to get but also full of charm.

Perhaps the alliance also indirectly explained that if they met Bai Chen, they should help him well, otherwise the purpose of the alliance's doing so was really unclear.

......

"call."

After walking out of the Pokémon Center, Bai Chen took a deep breath, trying to wake up his dizzy brain as much as possible.

Today's Gongmen City is full of lively atmosphere, the streets and alleys are full of voices of merchants hawking their own products, and the local merchants even occupy less than half of the stalls, most of the stalls are from other towns The supporters spontaneously organized here, and most of the things they sold were related to the arena owners in their own city.

This kind of sales of support products has already started a round before, and this is already the second round of sales. Compared with the first round of sales, this round of support products seems to be in terms of quality and heart Much better than the first time.

"Is it still mainly food and autograph photos..."

After passing by a few stalls, Bai Chen probably understood what the items on sale this round were.

Biscuits printed with the head portrait of the local museum owner or the corresponding logo, or a photo signed by the museum owner himself, this kind of thing is indeed relatively easy to sell today, after all, there are many people in Gongmen City today, or people from various regions A lot of people flew over to watch the game, and they definitely didn't want to go home after just watching a game. Buying some corresponding peripherals also became proof that they had been to Gongmen City in a sense.

However, after passing through the stalls in several cities, Bai Chen found that the stall in Shuizhou City, where Lulina was located, had the most customers, even before the competition started, the supply was in short supply, and the stall with the fewest people did not even occur to him. , it turned out to be...

.......

655 Champions Cup, Division

"Don't miss it when you pass by!"

"Master Nie Zi, the owner of the Spike Arena, is currently on a hot promotion! Buy one get one free, oh! No, buy one get two free! Let's take a look!"

Bai Chen: "..."

Looking at the two cheering team members who were busy at a booth, Bai Chen became silent all of a sudden.

Nie Zi's autographed photo?

Bai Chen subconsciously shifted his gaze to the photo they held in their hands. In the photo, Nie Zi was wearing a strange outfit and was smiling reluctantly. The background behind him was the trash can at the entrance of Jianding Town.

The photos can't be said to be ugly, it can only be said that they are a bit too advanced for the aesthetics of people in this era.

"So this is the photo they took that day..."

Based on the background of the photo, Bai Chen roughly deduced that the time this photo was taken was the time when he arrived in Jianding Town, and the background was the familiar background... But just looking at the scene structure in this photo, it is no wonder Did Nie Zi show such a reluctant expression at the time?Generally speaking, the purpose of this kind of support product is to make unfamiliar passers-by feel good about you, but this kind of photo is not good enough to show good feelings for you. It is already good if no one complains to the alliance about Nie Zi.

Bai Chen shook his head, deliberately turned his back to them, and cautiously touched the gate of the Gongmen Arena.

.......

"Oh--!"

"?!"

As soon as he entered the gate of the Gongmen City Arena, there was a continuous shout. Bai Chen, who hadn't seen such a scene on the scene for a long time, couldn't help being startled, but he still didn't wake up. , the reason why my head is a little dizzy is inside.

At first, he didn't understand what the people around him were cheering for, but the next second when he raised his head and looked at the big screen in front of the venue, he realized the reason for the cheering of the audience around him.

The game is divided into groups.

The schedule of this year's Champions Cup is divided into two days, so there are 12 contestants in total, and the 12 people are divided into Group A and Group B. Group A and Group B are divided into three groups for the knockout round. We won the knockout round this morning. The best contestants will be screened for the second group in the afternoon, at which time three contestants will be selected for the next day's finals.

Of course, in the case of three people participating in the finals, a seed player will usually be born and skip a battle directly, which is equivalent to the championship preliminaries. The identity of the seed player is determined by the small score, that is to say, in the previous The fewer Pokémon you use in battle, the faster you can achieve victory and the higher your small score.

As for the remaining two people, they will have a battle on the second day to decide who will compete with the seeded players for the championship.

The players who failed in this game will be divided into the elimination group, and finally compete with the players who lost in the final for the second and third seats.

The schedule is not complicated, at least compared to the league competitions in other regions where hundreds of people participate, the Champions Cup in the Galar region is already very simple and clear.

Generally speaking, in addition to the owners of the eight official arenas, at most one or two contestants will be born every year, because the Champions Cup is to select the elite among the elite, and ordinary trainers usually can only pass The tests in the first four arenas were just tests. Even trainers with slightly better aptitude would usually fall under Chibana's hands.

Although there are more than eight official arenas, in addition to the eight designated arenas, there are actually two other arenas.

In other words, all trainers who want to participate in the Champions Cup must choose eight of the ten arenas to win, but no matter how the challengers choose the first seven arenas, their gym certificates must Only Chibana's certificate is required.

Devil's Chibana.

Basically, all the trainers who hope to participate in the Champions Cup but end up falling under Chibana's hands will unconsciously give Chibana this title.

Compared with other arena owners who have released the sea, Qibana usually shows 9% of his strength in the arena's trials and challenges, and Qibana's 9% strength has already defeated [-]% of the challengers. Turned away.

It is also because of Chibana's terrifying strength that the number of trainers who can participate in the Champions Cup each year is generally only 1 or 2, but this year, 4 people passed Chibana's trial, so Galar People in the region also call this year a bumper year. According to the news media, this year's Champions Cup has attracted a lot of attention before the start, and everyone is looking forward to an upset scene this year.

"Group A is..."

Bai Chen withdrew his thoughts, and began to slowly read out today's grouping situation.

"Marie to Peter, Yalo to Kabu, Hop to Meirong?"

Looking at the grouping situation, Bai Chen breathed a sigh of relief.

The situation in Group A looks better. At least the first round of Marie's fight is not against veteran trainers, but newcomer trainers like her.

Peter.

Although I don't have a deep impression of this name, Bai Chen seems to vaguely remember that the magazine said that he is a trainer who is good at using the fairy system?

It's not that Bai Chen looks down on users of specific attributes. After all, you must know that the Four Heavenly Kings and even many champions from all over the world have reached the pinnacle of a single attribute. Get a little tired.

But it is not an easy task to achieve that level of specialization on the road of one attribute. Each of the Four Heavenly Kings spent decades honing their skills.

And what about Peter?Perhaps he does have his own unique insights into the power and use of fairy-type Pokmon, but the problem is that he is still too young. It is really impossible to make breakthrough discoveries and achievements in fairy-type Pokémon at this age .

And if trainers with a single attribute do not have a unique tactical system, then they can easily be found by the opponent in the battle, and thus directly broken through.

At least Bai Chen believed that Ma Li could do this.

Compared with Group A, Group B is really scary.

"Nie Zi vs Qibana, Lulina vs Caidou, Xiaoyou vs Popola..."

Bai Chen showed a somewhat stiff smile.

It was said that they were grouped randomly, but Bai Chen didn't believe it.

This kind of grouping, which can mobilize the greatest enthusiasm of the audience in the shortest period of time, must be intentional by the Galar Alliance, right?

.......

Chapter 656 The Shouting Team's Gratitude?

"Ah~ I'm really hot-blooded..."

With two dark circles under his eyes, Bai Chen said such words with a lifeless face. After hearing Bai Chen's voice, the surrounding audience turned their heads involuntarily. Originally, they wanted to discuss this kind of passionate story with him. They were in groups, but when they saw Bai Chen's appearance, they turned their heads away one after another, pretending that they didn't hear him.

Bai Chen is not surprised by this situation, after all, he said these words like a bad student talking about how easy the test paper is this time, it will only make people think you are weird.

"But, is it true that there isn't even a place?"

Bai Chen looked up at the sky helplessly. Although the latitude of the Galar region, especially Gongmen City, was not low, it was still as hot as it should be in this season. The weather showed no sign of cooling. The scorched air was constantly taking away Bai Chen's little physical strength.

Hope you can make it through...

Bai Chen thought so pessimistically.

With his current state, standing here watching the game and being able to watch the whole game without passing out is already pretty good.

Just when Bai Chen was about to find a place to lean back, suddenly a loud shout came from somewhere below——

"Hey! Mr. Bai Chen! There is a place here!"

"?"

Bai Chen didn't expect that there was someone who knew him at the scene, just when Bai Chen was about to accept this person's kindness, his eyes followed the direction of the voice and fell on his master.

Bai Chen: "..."

Just to put it bluntly, how could anyone know me in this place.

Bai Chen complained so much in his heart, and thought so helplessly.

The only people who know me in the Galar area are the few museum owners, Miss Junsha and Miss Joy. The latter even needs to show their identity before they can recognize themselves, and except for the above-mentioned Except for those people, the remaining people who can call their own names know it without thinking about it.

"Hey! Why are you shouting loudly?! Don't be afraid of being beaten up!"

Down below, because his companion called out Bai Chen's name, the members of the shouting team sitting beside him immediately got up and said so with some fear.

"That's to say... At first, I thought I would finally not have to see him again... Why did you take the initiative to invite the God of Plague? Shaking M?"

"But, but..." The boy who was pointed at by everyone hesitated at the moment, looked at Bai Chen, then turned around and whispered to his companion: "But we are helping him, right? Do you still remember what Miss Mary told me before? You must respect Mr. Bai Chen... If we do this, isn't it equivalent to doing Miss Mary a favor?"

Everyone in the shouting team: "?!"

Blind student, you discovered Huadian!

"That's right, so if Mary finds out about our actions... we will definitely be praised, right?"

"Great! You are a genius!"

Less than half a minute passed in the middle, and the boy who was originally pointed out by everyone has become the object of pursuit in a blink of an eye. After receiving so many people's praise, the boy also touched his own cheek with some embarrassment. The head, but with his current attire... Even if he is doing such a movement, it looks a little scary and weird to outsiders.

I don't want anything to do with them at all...

Bai Chen finally understood why only the shouting team was vacant in such a huge venue. The reason was that the audience who came here were all scared.

So many people in strange costumes gathered together, holding some ominous-looking support props in their hands. If they hadn't heard the people they supported from their mouths, the surrounding audience would even think that they were here. This place is haunted.

In short, the people at the scene maintained a very tacit point of view——

Stay away from these weirdos, it will be troublesome if you are targeted.

Obviously, as a normal person, Bai Chen also realized this, but just as he was about to turn around and leave, the members of the shouting team below couldn't sit still when they saw this. They gathered around Bai Chen with the gesture of covering their ears.

"Mr. Bai Chen, where are you going?"

"It looks like you didn't find a seat, right? It happens that we still have a few vacancies here, let alone sitting, you can lie down without any problem!"

"Your complexion looks so bad, you haven't rested, okay? Do you need me to buy you a glass of lemonade to refresh your mind?"

Bai Chen: "..."

It's broken and I can't go.

With some despair, Bai Chen began to observe the reactions of the people around him. Everyone who made eye contact with Bai Chen quickly turned their heads away, as if they had never seen him before. When he touched ten people, Bai Chen knew that he could no longer get out of this muddy water.

Ah, what a pity...

Bai Chen secretly sighed in his heart.

Now it seems that I can't clear up my "suspicion". In the perception of people around me, I am now the leader of this group of weirdos. It just so happens that his current appearance is indeed quite strange.

"Then... bother you guys...."

Bai Chen waved his hand weakly and said so.

Anyway, the suspicion can't be cleared away, and I won't have any interaction with the people around me. It doesn't matter if I'm treated as a weirdo. It's better to find a place to sit down now.

"Oh! Leave it to us! No matter what your needs are, we will try our best to satisfy you! It's just..."

"Please speak nice words for us in front of Miss Mary, because of what happened last time, Miss Mary has ignored us for a day! Huh..."

It never occurred to Bai Chen that they would cry whenever they wanted to. Seriously, how high is Mary's status in their hearts?
