Pokémon: Trainers start as bounty hunters

"Let's go and have a look."

Sirona stepped onto the speedboat parked aside and greeted Tetsuya and the others.

Lu Ping asked: "Are you approaching the Lightning Bird like this? It won't get angry suddenly."

Like most electric elves, Lightning Bird has a rather impulsive personality, and it is common to directly summon thunder to kill enemies.

He didn't want to be turned into charcoal for no apparent reason.

"Don't worry. If the Lightning Bird got angry, it would have killed you long ago. This is its territory. The perception of the mythical beast is not that weak."

Tetsuya followed Sirona and boarded the speedboat without saying a word.

He was very curious about the bright area in the middle of the lake.

Just as Tetsuya said, the Lightning Bird had already noticed their arrival, while they were still in the air.

The Lightning Bird is no stranger to Sirona's unabashed champion-level elf-like momentum when biting the land shark.

Not to mention that among the three people she brought, one of them had a very friendly smell to the Lightning Bird.

"Frozen Bird, is there Mr. Phoenix King?"

The recovering Lightning Bird's eyelids moved slightly.

Feeling the humans approaching quickly, it not only said nothing, but turned over slightly to make way for them.

"That's it."

Even though the Lightning Bird did this, Sirona, who was operating the speedboat, did not go too deep, but stopped at a relatively peripheral position.

She came to the middle of the speedboat and opened a deck under the surprised eyes of the three people.

Below the deck, a transparent square glass reveals the underwater scenery.

"Is that... a relic?" Xiaogang murmured.

Through the glass, what caught the eyes of several people was an ancient ruins that looked like broken wreckage.

In the middle, there is a stone pillar standing in it.

A huge crystal is placed on the top of the stone pillar.

"That's the 'converter' I'm talking about." Sirona said.

"This crystal? How did you do it?"

Due to his instinct as a researcher, Lu Ping asked subconsciously.

Immediately, he knew that he was being a little abrupt.

Items that can restore the serious injuries of divine beasts can be regarded as high-level secrets of the alliance, and he is not enough to know such information.

"No, the 'converter' is the pillar and the remains."

Sirona directly denied Lu Ping's question, "But that crystal is indeed the direct reason for the recovery of Lightning Bird. The function of the pillar is more for conversion and acceleration."

"The legendary crystal?" Zheya thoughtfully took over.

He seemed to have read about this crystal in a book in the Viridian Library.

"Legend has it that this crystal was born on a high mountain. One day countless thunderbolts fell on the top of the mountain. After it calmed down, most of the mountain 'disappeared', leaving only one crystal left in the pit.

It has some incredible power and can turn ordinary lake water into a healing water source suitable for the recovery of electric elves."

"That's right." Sirona nodded and confirmed Tetsuya's statement, "But if it is simply soaked in the lake water, its effect will be quite weak, and it will not emit such a powerful light."

"This pattern... I seem to have seen it somewhere before?"

Tetsuya, who had very good eyesight, looked at the ruins in the lake and fell into deep thought again.

On the side, Lu Ping learned more about the story of this crystal from Sirona.

As a researcher, he is eager to know unknown knowledge.

Maybe that's why he was so successful.

Xiaogang looked at the lightning bird and wrote quickly, as if he wanted to record it.

From the perspective of a breeder, each mythical beast can be regarded as a perfect breeding case for its category.

From the hair on the body to the energy inside, everything is like this.

And with Xiaogang's eyes, what he can see is far more profound than ordinary people.

"Those carvings, are they silver?"

Suddenly, Zheye asked aloud.

Sirona, who was imparting historical knowledge to Lu Ping, immediately turned to look at him: "Yes, it seems that you have a pretty good knowledge in this area."

There was a light called "interest" in her eyes.

Zheye smiled: "I once entered an underground ruins near Ziyuan Town, and there were similar patterns there."

It was also there that he got the Shining Stone from Daigo's mouth, and also caught a shining Rattata and put it in Dr. Ohki's research institute to live a happy life.

"This is the crystallization of the wisdom of the ancient civilization of Atlantis."

Sirona, who is a mythologist and part-time historian, is obviously much more knowledgeable than Tetsuya in this regard.

"At present, the Alliance has discovered similar ruins in various places. This kind of mechanism composed of shadow-filled notch patterns is not uncommon, but its functions vary greatly depending on the direction of the notch patterns.

The pattern below that plays a transformation role can be considered a type explored by the alliance."

Atlantis is another familiar name.

Previously, Nazi entrusted Tetsuya with a commission, which was to protect the archaeological team from exploring a ruins that also belonged to Atlantis.

"It's really strange that the technology of ancient civilizations was actually higher than ours."

Xiaogang, who had no understanding or interest in these things, expressed considerable doubts.

"You can't say that." Zheye shook his head, "I can only say that the development of ancient civilizations in some aspects was different from ours now.

After all, elves were called monsters in the past, and the relationship between humans and them was not as harmonious and stable as it is now.

There was a lot of technology at that time that was not based on harnessing the power of elves, but on resisting elves.

But looking at it as a whole, today’s technology is definitely in a leading position.”

People a long time ago would not have dared to imagine that one day humans would be able to put elves into a poke ball that was only the size of a fist.

And the size of your fist is not the limit, the smallest one can even be sandwiched between two fingers.

"Well, that crystal can be said to have gathered natural lightning energy, so it can have a restorative effect?"

Xiaogang didn't care about this. He just said it casually and quickly focused on the crystal.

But regarding this question, Sirona couldn't answer it, because she didn't know either.

A mythologist is a mythologist, and things involving specific working principles are not within the scope of her understanding.

Just when a few people wanted to go back to the lake.

"Human, wait a minute, I'm going to ask you a few things."

A slightly urgent and sharp voice sounded in the hearts of several people.

Zheye, who felt something in his heart, pointed at himself.

"Yes, that's right, it's you." The voice sounded again.

"Please tell me."

Tetsuya looked at the lightning bird not far away that didn't know when it opened its eyes.

From its eyes, he could clearly see fatigue and weakness.

"My old friend, is everything okay?"

The Lightning Bird's question was obviously beyond Tetsuya's expectations.

But he quickly came to his senses: "The Frozen Bird should be pretty good, but it said not to disturb it in recent years. It has something to do."

The distance between here and Snow White Mountain is not too far, at least for the two mythical birds and beasts.

It is not surprising that they have known each other for a long time, and they are also called the "Three God Birds" together.

"Then it looks like nothing's wrong."

Lightning Bird's tone suddenly relaxed a lot.

Since the frozen bird still has the strength to give birth to offspring, the situation must be much better than that of the extremely weak bird.

"Second question, have you met Lord Feng Wang?"

There was a hint of curiosity in Lightning Bird's eyes.

Although the immediate boss is technically Lugia, the relationship between Ho-oh and Lugia is well understood.

"No, it's just by chance that one of my friends was baptized by the Phoenix King's sacred flames.

Then I still have a rainbow-colored feather on my body, and that’s it.”

Tetsuya shook his head.

If he really saw the Phoenix King, he would dare to blow the cowhide to the sky.

The Lightning Bird was silent for a moment, not knowing what he was thinking, and then asked: "Is it the Eagle that flew over just now?"

"right."

"That's it..."

The Lightning Bird soaked in the lake water turned over leisurely.

A bright arc of electricity shot out from its body, and then followed the lake to the shore.

There, a pink electric dragon is enjoying the rare "electric lake".

Feeling the surging more intense electrical energy, it subconsciously opened its eyes.

The yellow sky filled its sight.

"Boom"

The electric dragon subconsciously wanted to climb ashore.

But the current has already wrapped around its body.

Tetsuya subconsciously placed his hand on the elf ball at his waist, and then took it back: "This is it?"

Lightning Bird responded impatiently: "It's just a small benefit, why are you so nervous?"

Zheye curled his lips secretly. Who can rest assured that you discharge your electricity without saying a word?

Lu Ping and Xiao Gang, who were confused by this series of actions, had just come to their senses.

"Flash...Lightning Bird spoke??"

"That's telepathy. Is this an ability that even mythical beasts can master?"

Both of them once again burst out with a strong desire for knowledge.

Fortunately, the last few words could only be heard between Zapdos and Tetsuya, otherwise they would not be sure how surprised they would be.

But the current situation is quite clear.

Tetsuya obviously got a lot of benefits from Zapdos.

"Why are you kid getting all the benefits?" Lu Ping covered his head with a look of helplessness on his face.

However, there was no jealousy in his tone, just pure envy.

Xiaogang on the side also had the same attitude.

I have to say, these two guys are pretty good friends.

Not to mention Sirona.

She was not interested in the gift from the Lightning Bird, but she was just curious about what prompted the Lightning Bird to do what it did.

"Iris Feather, it shouldn't be."

Her eyes twinkled slightly.

The surrounding electric elves cast envious glances at the electric dragon.

Luping's electric monsters and Roentgen cats are not without their rewards.

The two elves closest to the Electric Dragon can be said to be the ones closest to the Lightning Bird's electricity besides the Electric Dragon.

Judging from the slight flashing current on their bodies, you can tell that they have gained some insights during this process.

Five minutes, ten minutes...

Time passed little by little, and the current surrounding the electric dragon did not change at all.

Zheye's expression gradually became different.

"Are you sure you're okay?"

He didn't know how many times he looked at the Lightning Bird.

"Forehead..."

Lightning Bird also went from being unconcerned at the beginning to being confused now.

Logically speaking, charging should have ended long ago.
