I lost contact in the world of elves

Looking at the other person's face, Chi Zhi couldn't help but call out the other person's identity.

The young man with pigtails glanced at Chizhi warily and took a step back.

"Huh? How do you know my name!"

[Target: Ryohei]

[Relationship: Troublesome Alliance Trainer]

[Dating advice: He is very wary of you, so you need to grasp the topic you want to touch on]

Seeing the other party's nervous look, Chizhi explained.

"I stayed at your house for a night before, so I happened to see your previous photos. Although a few years have passed, I can still see your appearance!"

Seeing that Akachi recognized him just because of this, Lianghei breathed a sigh of relief.

"Ah...that's it. Are they okay now?"

Chi Chi said with a smile.

"Of course, they are still living there, and they have a group of elven companions, living very comfortably! You should have completed your tour by now, why don't you go back?"

Seeing this, Lianghei looked helpless.

But then he said firmly.

"Because...because I want to protect this town! There are no Alliance Sheriffs and Gyms in this town, so they are often attacked by wild elves. I don't want to see them displaced..."

In an instant, Chizhi understood what was going on.

"Oh! It turns out you are the one who is silently guarding Akiye Town from behind. Lianghei, you are such a great trainer! But please take the time to go back and see your family. They have been waiting there for you to come back!"

Hearing this, Lianghei fell into silence for a while.

The aura of trust exuding from Akachi made him feel inexplicably reliable, and Ryohei told the truth in great pain.

"Actually... I failed to become a professional trainer... because I taught those who did not have trainer qualifications without permission, so my trainer qualification certificate has been revoked, and I am actually wanted by the alliance..."

In the Elf Alliance, the crime of privately teaching others to train elves without opening a gym is very serious, similar in nature to privately training soldiers.

But it is not an easy task to open an elf gym.

Even if you become a gym leader and successfully open a gym, you still have to go through the assessment and evaluation of the alliance every year.

If the taxes paid do not meet the standard, you may be banned from the gym at any time.

Therefore, the tuition fees of each gym have increased one by one under this competition mechanism.

It is impossible for ordinary people to get a career like trainer.

On the Fangyuan Continent, there are many villages that need the protection of trainers.

Seeing how people in places similar to his own hometown were displaced, Ryohei couldn't help but make a decision that violated the laws of the alliance.

In his inner uneasiness, Ryohei could not hide his inner emotions and confessed the truth to Akachi.

He looked at Chi Zhi with some anxiety.

I saw this trainer wearing a red hat. Instead of looking at the illegal person with disdain and surprise on his face, he showed a look of admiration.

"Lianghei, you are a great person. You are willing to sacrifice your own future to help others. You are a true hero!"

Lianghei said in disbelief when he saw that Akachi could actually understand him.

"Really...really? I am a person who has violated the laws of the alliance!"

Chi Zhi doesn’t think so.

"I don't think everything in the alliance is right! You have to know that trainers are the freest people in the world! How can the laws of the alliance prevent us from doing the right thing!"

Trainers are the freest people...

Seeing Akachi say these words so easily, Ryohei instantly felt a sense of relief at being understood and redeemed.

He finally understood why he would reveal everything to the other party easily. This man...

Humhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh!

!

[Loto! Your words moved Lianghei! The relationship between you quickly heated up! 】

【Your relationship has been upgraded to [ideal comradeship]!】

[Unlock ability [Trust Aura IV]]

[Trust Aura IV: Your aura is extremely reliable! People can’t help but trust you!]

In an instant, the aura of Chizhi changed. He was like a bottomless tree hole, and like a kind priest. People could not restrain themselves from wanting to reveal everything they had hidden in their hearts without reservation!

After successfully gaining Liangping's trust, Chichi patted him on the shoulder and smiled.

"Liangping, your grandma told me that no matter whether you can become a professional trainer or not, the only thing she hopes is that you can protect yourself and the things you cherish. Have you done that?"

"grandmother……"

Hearing the message from Akachi, Ryohei felt a warm feeling in his heart and couldn't help but burst into tears!

He had always felt that he had failed his family's expectations and had no shame in going back to see his family. He passed by and looked at his home from a distance several times, but did not go in to reunite with his family.

But now, he finally feels the understanding and warmth from his family.

Although my body is still wandering outside, my heart seems to have returned home.

Seeing Liangping's excited expression, Si Tong looked as if he had been through storms and waves and said nonchalantly.

"Tch, it's not a big deal. Why should I be so entangled? Uncle, I haven't taken the alliance's regulations seriously for a long time! The alliance also said that all cultural relics and fossils excavated underground are the property of the alliance, and all of them must be paid.

Turn it over to the Alliance, do you think I'll take any notice of it?"

Seeing Si Tong's expression of not being ashamed but proud, Chi Zhi probably knew why others called him Fossil Maniac...

Crazy enough indeed!

Then Ryohei and Akachi talked about the trainers wandering around Akiba Town.

"I met many trainers like me during my travels. Some of their hometowns have been abandoned due to relocation, so we traveled all the way to find a place to return to, and we found this place..."

It can be seen that there are still quite a lot of illegal trainers like Ryohei in the marginal areas that deviate from the jurisdiction of the alliance.

The Alliance defines them as [Essential Thieves].

Although this name sounds dangerous, in the final analysis, he is just an illegal trainer whose existence is not allowed by alliance policy.

Of course, there are indeed some extremely vicious people among these people, but most of them are helpless people like Liangping and Bonfire.

"My companions and I regularly clean up the elves around the town and drive those dangerous guys back to the depths of Yantu Mountain. In order not to cause trouble to the people in the town, we can only stay outside Qiuye Town.

Find a place to hide..."

"We usually send Aogu and Nobuhiko's big-billed gulls to exchange supplies with people in the town. Occasionally, we also come to Meteor Falls to look for some usable ores..."

Since this was the first time he had interacted with people like Ryohei, Akachi wanted to meet Ryohei's companions in person, to see what kind of people they were, and to understand their way of living.

Lianghei was a little surprised when he heard Akachi's request.

"You are on a tour now, right? If you come into contact with people like us, being discovered may have a very bad impact on you..."

Chi Chi smiled nonchalantly.

"Don't worry, it was something that was discovered by someone. It's okay if it wasn't discovered!"

Lianghei thought about it and felt that what Chizhi said made sense.

This is an administrative area that has been removed from the Alliance territory, but there are indeed not many Alliance citizens.

The people living in this area basically contribute zero taxes to the alliance. They are all free citizens who broke away from the alliance, and their legal awareness of the alliance is relatively indifferent.

After walking out of Meteor Falls, Si Tong said goodbye to the two of them.

"Then I'll see you later Ryohei!"

"Well, let's come together next time!"

After bidding farewell to Fossil Mania, Akachi and Ryohei came to their residence.

There is a rock cave on the side of Route 114 connecting Meteor Falls and Akiye Town.

After walking for a while, Lianghei walked into a narrow gap from the side. Once inside, there was a completely different world.

In the cave that suddenly opened up, an elf inside cast [Flash] to illuminate the cave.

There are several stone chambers carved into the surrounding rock walls. This kind of project is not unfamiliar to Akachi. Gin's native ninjas can use their digging abilities to build this kind of secret base.

Seeing Lianghei and Akachi arriving, a strong man with narrow eyes and a red scarf on his head walked out of a stone room.

"Huh? Ryohei, who is this? Is this your new companion?"

Liangping saw the other party and introduced him immediately.

"His name is Chizhi, he is a friend I just met!"

Then he turned back to Chizhi.

"Akachi, this is Nobuhiko. I have known him a long time ago. He is an expert in survival in the wild. His elf is very good at using fire! He is responsible for the usual cooking!"

After looking at Nobuhiko's appearance, Akachi remembered something.

He has a big head and a thick neck, so he is not a wealthy man.

Seeing this strange boy with a red hat, Nobuhiko said enthusiastically.

"It seems we are adding a new room. Young man, are you particular about food?"

Facing the other party's warm reception, Chi Zhi quickly waved his hand.

"No need! I'm just here to get to know you, I don't plan to live here!"

Hearing this, Nobuhiko looked at Ryohei with some doubts.

Liangping quickly explained.

"Akachi is a regular trainer and is practicing in Qiuye Town! But it doesn't matter. He is someone I trust and will not tell others about us!"

Seeing that Ryohei believed in this young man wearing a red hat, Nobuhiko said no longer nervously.

"Well, I hope your intuition is correct! The alliance's behavior is getting more and more crazy now. Although they have abandoned Qiuye Town, more and more people are coming back from Qiuye Town. I don't know what the alliance people will do.

I won’t pay attention to this anymore…”

Alliance people...

Chi Zhi could tell that people from the alliance had already come and cut a wave of leeks.

And he can definitely feel that Qiuye Town is in good condition now that it has left the alliance.

It's just that the beast tide that happened in Caoyan Town made Chi Zhi feel a little worried...

He still doesn't know exactly what happened to that strange fluctuation at that time.

If he senses the current fluctuations, maybe he can feel it more clearly?

In the secret base, Chi Chi learned about the daily lives of many of these illegal trainers.

The feed they feed to the elves is very primitive. It is entirely based on the elves' own preferences, feeding them various tree fruits or by-products obtained from various patrols.

As for the energy cubes required to improve elemental affinity, they used various more primitive crystal stones instead.

Of course, it is not swallowed directly, but placed close to the elf and slowly absorbs the elemental affinity power inside.

This method is very inefficient and far less convenient than taking energy cubes.

But this is the best method they can choose.

Listening to their training methods, Chizhi felt that the basic conditions of the elves cultivated in this way would definitely be different from those of alliance trainers.

But their combat experience is honed from various actual combats in the wild. If a battle actually occurs in the wild, the result is still unknown...

While everyone was talking, several more trainers came back here.

A strange man with disheveled hair and a wild aura said as he came in.

"Hmm... I smell something strange! Is there a new person here? Wow! Is this Charmander! I like Charizard the best!"

Chi Chi glanced at this weirdo.

The other person's love was completely revealed in his clothes. The upper body was wearing a short-sleeved shirt with a fire-breathing dragon head on it, while the lower body was wearing suspenders with a fire-breathing dragon tail.

After a while of conversation, Chi Chi learned that this weirdo's name was Toshio, who was called a monster maniac.

He was just an insect-catching boy at first, but later he showed a strong talent in fighting, and he tamed more elves, and often found people to duel with him.

Because he does not have a trainer qualification certificate, he has attracted the attention of the alliance. He is currently a potentially dangerous person on the alliance's list and an officially certified elite thief.

His dream is to own a fire-breathing dragon.

Feeling the fiery gaze of the other party, Huo Hong hid behind Chi Zhi with some embarrassment.

As a reserved female Charmander, the feeling of being watched by a crazy man was unbearable.

Behind Toshio were two teenagers, a man and a woman, wearing khaki pants and about the same age as Akachi.

The two of them are Ryohei's students Tomohiro and Satsuki.

Many of the apprentices taught by Liangping have returned to their hometowns, and because the village where their hometown is located has moved away, there is not much meaning for the two of them to go back, so they simply continue to practice with Liangping.

There is also a sturdy uncle, Saburo, who is a wandering trainer who travels around the mountains and rivers.

He met Lianghei during his travels. Although he has not been officially certified as a spirit thief, he is certainly not a legal trainer.

What Chi Chi cares about the most is the purple-haired man with tattoos under his eyes, who calls himself Ban Na Yin.

Chi Zhi felt an unusual aura on him.

His intuition told him that this man must be a hidden master!

After getting to know everyone, Chi Chi feels that the trainers here are not bad people.

Except for the man named Ban Na Yin.

He couldn't see through the other person.

Their relationship is a "key surveillance target".

This is a very concerning relationship.

But overall, Chi Chi can rest assured.

Before leaving, Chi Chi said to Liang Ping.

"Take me with you the next time you clean up! I also want to contribute to the peace of Qiuye Town!"

Liangping naturally had no objection to this.

"Okay! I will let you know when the time comes. Goodbye Xiaochi!"
