Pokémon: The King of Extras

A battle, from start to finish, lasted 42 minutes.

After the battle, Yu Zhou did not continue to watch the rest of the game and turned around to go backstage.

Lin Zhuiyi's lounge door was open.

Yu Zhou walked over. She was the only one inside. She had just washed her face, and there were crystal drops of water on her face and hair.

When she saw Yu Zhou, she laughed, her tone becoming clearer and freer.

"Still lost."

Yu Zhou shook his head, closed the door, and whispered: "It is already very powerful to be able to fight the champion to this point."

6-choose 4 doubles, the lineup is slightly inferior.

The opponent is the top player in the entire Eastern Xia region, and has not been defeated for several consecutive years.

Even so,

Lin Zhuiyi still defeated three of them, and all Pokémon released their surprising combat abilities.

No one will think she is not awesome.

It just takes some time to grow and develop its own unique battle system - experts and supportive fans outside will probably think so.

Lin Zhuiyi shook his head.

She sat on the chair, sighed, and tangled her hands unconsciously.

Her delicate and sassy face was full of thoughts.

Yu Zhou sat down a distance away and took some wild apples from the basket on the table.

Simply peel off the outer skin and give one to Zoroark, one to Little Dream Demon, and finally Lin Zhuiyi.

She thanked her and kept it on hand without eating.

Zoroark and the little dream monster gnawed happily.

After the latter finished chewing, he was about to float into the basket, but he reached out and held his head.

There was no consolation, no suggestion that there would be a chance next time.

The two of them sat quietly at the table, feeling the atmosphere of failure.

Time passed little by little, and occasionally staff members ran past the door.

A young lady opened the door midway, as if she wanted to say something. Seeing that the two people in the room were quiet and did not speak, she slowed down and left.

After sitting there until nearly 11 o'clock, Lin Zhuiyi recovered and wiped the invisible tears on his face with some embarrassment.

"Are you on today's flight?"

"Um."

Yu Zhou glanced at the time and said, "Tonight, I will take a nap in the middle of the night. It will be almost there when I wake up."

"I originally wanted you to go back to Magic City happily, but I'm sorry." She added.

Yu Zhou shook his head.

More than this, he was more curious about why Lin Zhuiyi cared so much about this King of Heaven Tournament.

It's not like I've never lost before - when I participated in the King's Tournament for the first time, I was almost eliminated completely. Then I fought my way up from the resurrection playoffs and barely managed to retain a seat.

Hearing this question, Lin Zhuiyi immediately hesitated.

Yu Zhou glanced at it twice and joked: "I know so many secrets, but I am still missing this one?"

Many embarrassing moments of his past appeared in his mind, and Lin Zhuiyi couldn't help but glare at him.

Thinking about it carefully, it is indeed not something that cannot be said. He stretched out his hand and scratched his hair twice, with an annoyed expression.

"It's just that our expectations have been dashed, and the future is far away."

Yu Zhou had said before that as long as he became a champion, he would ask her to go on an outdoor trip together.

Lin Zhuiyi originally wanted to brag about winning this time, so he made a lot of preparations for this.

I won’t mention studying tactics, styles, and training pools.

He conducted extremely special crisis training and used all his efforts as the main factor in breaking the situation.

But the result is...

Only in the final battle between the Super Lizard King and the Vulcan Moth, Chen Xinglan used all his strength.

Yes.

In the previous battle, Chen Xinglan did not face it seriously, but fought like an assessor.

Just like those gym leaders, they just maintain their strength at the level of a championship.

Even so, Lin Zhuiyi, who went all out, still barely had the upper hand.

At the end, when she truly witnessed Chen Xinglan's true strength, she realized that this was no match for her current opponent.

Like a school wall standing in front of a good girl.

Even next year, I still don’t have the courage to make a leap.

Realizing all this, his expectations were shattered, and Lin Zhuiyi was uncertain about the future, he couldn't help but feel depressed and reveal his fragile side.

Losing is never a hammer, despair is a sharp knife.

"So you really want to travel with me." Yu Zhou touched his chin and murmured.

"no,"

Lin Zhuiyi wiped his face in embarrassment, "I, I just think that this agreement may take a long time to be reached."

There is also the possibility that it will never be achieved again──she kept this sentence in her heart without saying it.

Countless talents emerge in the circle of trainers every year.

They have been racing in the King of Heaven Competition for a long time, and there are even more players who want to take a step closer.

In such an environment, time is life.

The front wave that cannot go further can only be crushed by the more powerful back wave and become an unknown member.

This is what she cannot accept.

Yu Zhou nodded, realizing the problem.

To put it simply, the trainer who saw the huge gap between the enemy and ourselves lost the momentum to move forward.

This happens often with geniuses.

Those who cannot survive will be forgotten in the corners of history, but those who transcend the past will become brighter stars!

The key to this level is the state of mind.

Yu Zhou thought for a while, and suddenly recalled the situation in the secret realm of the magic city, and the corner of his mouth raised an arc.

He tried to speak: "Do you still remember that in the secret realm of the magic city, I rode a dragon to intercept your battle?"

Lin Zhuiyi tilted his head.

Although I don’t know why I suddenly mentioned this incident, I quickly recalled the situation at that time, and the corner of my mouth twitched a few times.

"Remember, you were still pretending to be an aborigine at that time, and your face was gone."

This sentence is realistic style.

But Yu Zhou didn't care.

He smiled and said: "At that time, I was just a fledgling. I was not afraid of anything. As soon as I raised Zoroa, I dared to confront the King of Heaven."

"Thanks to that dragon." Lin Zhuiyi couldn't help but laugh, "If it weren't for its combat experience and being frightened by Mew, your messy command would definitely not be able to escape."

"yes,"

Yu Zhou nodded and gently brushed Zoroark's hair on his thigh with his five fingers, "But we did it in the end."

Lin Zhuiyi blinked.

What I wanted to say was stuck in my mouth, and I suddenly didn't know how to say it.

"As long as you think about it, you can do it. There may not be many people in the world who can do it."

After a pause for two seconds, Yu Zhou continued, "But as long as you don't want to, you will definitely not be able to do it."

"There is a huge gap between my abilities and yours. I don't understand how you feel on stage, so I can't make effective suggestions. But I know that some people definitely know better than me, or even better than you."

"Who?" Lin Zhuiyi, who was stunned, subconsciously asked.

"Your Lizard King, Master Weasel, Wind Fairy and Steel Armored Crow." Yu Zhou said.

Lin Zhuiyi suddenly froze in place.

She stretched out her hand and brushed the elf balls around her waist, one by one, holding them all in her palm.

Gently rubbing the surface of the sphere, the bond seemed to solidify, penetrating the small sphere and passing into her heart.

The Lizard King, Master Weasel, the Wind Fairy, the Steel-Armored Crow... scenes from the past flashed in his mind, and they all turned around and sent out their invitations to her.

Can……

It can be done.

Everyone is looking forward to meeting Chen Xinglan for the second time!

Lin Zhuiyi suddenly widened his eyes and looked at Yu Zhou in front of him.

Subconsciously clenching the Poké Ball in her hand, she took a deep breath and said firmly: "I want to win."

Yu Zhou laughed.

He stretched out his hand and said seriously: "No matter what time, I will wait for you."

"Um!"

Holding his hands together, his fierce belief turned into a spearhead, pointing directly at the highest position.

…

After appeasing Lin Tianwang who had regained his strength, Yu Zhou watched a few more challenge matches before leaving the venue.

The evening flight comes quickly.

With the little time left, he went back to the hotel room at the Alliance Center and checked the gifts he had prepared.

After making sure that every friend and little one was taken care of, I suddenly remembered the dreams of not going home for a long time.

When we go back this time, will the two of them come to the Magic City to stay for two days?

It would be so embarrassing if you didn't prepare a gift.

Once the idea popped up, it could no longer be ignored. Yu Zhou quickly took the room card.

When he was about to go out, he grabbed the little dream monster who kept throwing away the gifts, leaving Zoroark in the house to catch up on his sleep.

After leaving the door, Yu Zhou went straight to the largest supermarket nearby.

Within ten minutes, he pushed the cart carrying the little dream monster to the special floor in the Sichuan-Sichuan area.

This is an area specially opened to support local specialties. All products within are all locally produced.

Such as bamboo shoots, oil-paper umbrellas, bamboo accessories, perfumes, giant panda dolls, etc., as long as they are guaranteed local brands, they have a place.

Considering that the two Pokémon were roaming around, they didn't need any gifts that were too big or messy. They focused on small but exquisite gifts. Yu Zhou chose them very carefully.

After rummaging around, I came to the sale of Pokémon props.

His eyes glanced at one of the red buttons and he suddenly stopped.

His eyes flickered, and a specific information column unfolded in front of him.

escape button

Item description: When the Pokémon carrying this item is damaged by a move, it can escape from the battlefield or alternate with other Pokémon.

Additional note: Produced by Sichuan Mingxiu Research Institute, the battery needs to be replaced every six months

Looking at this thing, I was inexplicably reminded of the timid little Dream, and also of the cowards in my family, and I couldn't help but raise the corners of my mouth.

"Hello, do you want to see this one?"

Seeing him stop, the receptionist walked up.

Yu Zhou asked her to take it over and read it twice carefully.

After confirming that it was a good fit, I paid the bill quickly.

The price is not cheap, 2-3 times that of ordinary props.

In the past, you might have had to grit your teeth to buy something, but you can get the money right away, so it’s okay to indulge in splurges once in a while.

After buying this, Yu Zhou shopped around twice more, but didn't find any suitable gifts for Da Meng.

Although they lived together before, he had a cold temperament and often sat on the sofa alone playing games.

Over time, we started to understand each other less.

Feeling that he couldn't find any suitable gift, Yu Zhou simply went to the game area.

I bought a few replacement cassettes for Dreamland before, and they were all masterpieces. I have played them for thousands of hours and received rave reviews.

There is no shortage of things like clay figures, unpacking cards, and pillows at the moment...

Yu Zhou paused and suddenly remembered the video call he had with Manafei after returning to the Magic City.

Although there is Zhou Xiao in the middle to assist, the little guy is also very skilled in playing by himself.

When you get to the back, you can even hold your phone and start a live broadcast on the sea.

After a while...

With a brand new phone and an escape button, Yu Zhou grabbed the shaking, grumbling, and sulking little Meng Yao and walked out of the mall.

After walking a long way, the little Meng Yao finally believed that Yu Zhou really didn't want to buy her snacks, and immediately showed a pitiful expression as if the sky was falling.

Yu Zhou let her go with a headache.

This little guy.

When eating lunch at the King of Kings competition venue, she stuffed a lot of food in a whirlwind.

If he hadn't stopped her in the middle, she would definitely eat until she couldn't fly.

It's not even two hours now, and she can't control her mouth again.

Yu Zhou didn't dare let her eat too many snacks that would take up a lot of space in her stomach, so he could only look for snacks that seemed to be a lot, but actually had very little.

Marshmallows, super-large shrimp crackers, it took more than half an hour to buy them.

Back to the Alliance Hotel, she fell on the big bed all of a sudden.

The little Meng Yao was full of energy, and she was eating the snacks she bought on the way.

Maybe because she had spent too much energy watching the game in the morning, Yu Zhou lay quietly for a while and felt sleepy.

After telling the little dream demon to call her when it gets dark, she closed her eyes in a daze.

When he fell asleep completely, Zoroark, who was originally snoring, turned over and opened his eyes.

She looked at the sleeping Yu Zhou in a daze, grabbed the quilt and covered her mother.

She lay down for a while before she was barely refreshed.

Yawning, she gently called out to the dream demon who was still eating.

"Ah?"

"Dream~" The dream demon pointed to the two boxes next to her.

Zoroark walked over and found a note with (gift from Big Dream) (gift from Little Dream) on it, and nodded in understanding.

After entering the bathroom and washing up simply, she turned her head to look at the little dream demon who was still eating as if he had become a landscape, with the same speechless expression on her face as Yu Zhou.

Why are there so many weird little guys at home?

"Ah?"

"Dream!" The dream demon felt that she could eat for a while longer.

I just forgot that in this team, only Yu Zhou, the head of the family, would tolerate her little willfulness, but my eldest sister Zoroark would not.

After being rejected, Zoroark walked over directly, grabbed the remaining snacks and poured them into her mouth.

He bit off the remaining fruit bunch, reached out, grabbed the dream demon who was stunned in place, and stuffed it into his hair.

"Dream~"

The pitiful protest became a deaf ear, and Zoroark picked up the mobile phone that her mother had used countless times and pushed open the door of the hotel.

Her figure swayed, and she turned into a beautifully haired Sun Eevee with a little dream demon on her head.

She glanced at the surrounding situation with a little vigilance, and ran out of the Alliance Center with an elegant and brisk pace.

"Dream?" The dream demon, who didn't know where to go, lowered his body nervously.

The Sun Eevee twitched his nose and ran all the way along the fragrance.

He squatted in a corner in front of the sidewalk obediently, not disturbing the passers-by beside him, and not letting them touch him.

After the red light passed, he subconsciously looked at the traffic on both sides and immediately trotted over.

After turning three intersections and two streets, Sun Eevee and Little Dream stopped in front of a flower shop.

He glanced around cautiously, sniffing the air nearby to confirm the smell.

"Hello."

The lady in the store quickly noticed this unusual pair of customers, squatted down, and asked with a smile, "What flowers do you want to buy?"

"Ah... Buyi~"

A moment later, Sun Eevee, carrying a large bouquet of flowers on his back, ran again in the streets and alleys of Sichuan and Shu. (End of this chapter)
