One month later.
There is only one week left until the opening of the Lily of the Valley Conference.
Wetland City, suburbs.
"finally reached."
Qingliu looked at the endless front, opened his mouth and took a deep breath.
The coolness mixed with the light air entered the chest, which immediately sobered up the somewhat tired brain.
"The air in the Great Wetland is different, right?"
Aoyagi looked to the side, where Mechanical Greymon was still in the air and taking a deep breath.
Compared to a month ago, MechanicalGreymon's appearance and body shape have not changed significantly, and even the aura it exudes has always remained within a very normal range, but in those huge blue eyes, But there is always an edge that cannot be concealed.
The entire dragon is like a sharp sword that has been half pulled out of its scabbard. You can feel the sharp power of the sword just by looking at it from a distance.
Hearing Qingliu's question, Mechanical Greymon nodded silently, and then looked at the city ahead.
Wetland City, a city connected to the Great Wetland, is where the last gymnasium is located.
The open area not far ahead is the Great Wetland, the largest wetland in the Sinnoh region and also the most complete and largest wetland preserved in the Pokémon world.
At the same time, it is also a famous hunting area in the Sinnoh region.
That is, you have to pay a ticket to enter, you are not allowed to pass and no direct battle is allowed, and then you can collect Pokémon through the hunting balls distributed and local materials in the wetland.
Generally speaking, hunting areas contain many Pokémon that are relatively rare compared to the outside world. It is one of the best places for trainers to choose new partners when they are confused and don’t know who the next Pokémon will be.
"If I remember correctly, there seemed to be a red Gyarados staying in the lake in the hunting area in a previous version of the game. I don't know if there is one here."
Qingliu searched for vague memories, looked into the distance and muttered to himself.
And according to the books I have read before, in order to maintain the original landform of the wetland, the Sinnoh Alliance has very strict management of the interior of the Great Wetland, and also imposes various restrictions on trainers.
Over time, the level and combat power of some Pokémon deep in the hunting zone increased to very unusual levels without anyone disturbing them.
There are even Pokémon at the level of the Four Heavenly Kings!
"Before challenging the wetland gym, let's go to the other side of the wetland to see it."
Hearing this, MechanicalGreymon said in a deep voice: "Does this mean there's not enough time left? There is less than a week left before the Suzuran Tournament."
"It won't take too long. Besides, with our current strength, even if the opponent is the strongest gym leader among the active gym trainers who can rival the Four Heavenly Kings, it won't be a big problem."
"Um……"
Since Qingliu said so, it naturally wouldn't have any objections.
The wings on its back flapped slightly, and its huge body began to dive towards the wetland below.
"Fly from above first, and then walk to the other side. You can also see what the wetland looks like."
Since it is stipulated that fighting is not allowed in the wetland, and Qingliu also knows that he is somewhat related to the destructive maniac, it is better to try not to take the initiative to cause any trouble.
Just passing by and admiring the scenery is enough.
As for whether there is any opponent on the other side that can be regarded as a training target, Aoyagi doesn't particularly care.
The best ones can be used as detection training objects.
It’s okay if you don’t have one, since there is still a gym trainer anyway.
However, after training for a month, it would not be bad to meet two. After all, living a life that insists on one thing for a long time is somewhat boring, and the mood will become tense accordingly, so it is necessary to relax.
Flying over the wetland, feeling the air around him that was completely different from the city and even fresher than inside the forest, Aoliu was immersed in it for a while.
Even the sharp edge of Mechanical Greymon was invisibly softened by such a comfortable and harmonious environment.
But soon, this short-term comfort was interrupted.
"cracking!!!"
A sharp and piercing cry suddenly sounded in the distant sky.
MechanicalGreymon turned its head instantly, and the sharpness in its pupils that had become much more condensed condensed again, and it swept straight towards the place where the sound had just sounded in the distance.
"Qingliu, he's coming towards us. There's someone on the back of that Pokémon."
"I saw it, stop it."
After looking into the distance, Qingliu quickly swept around and shook his head helplessly.
Even without the illustration function provided by the panel, he could easily see that not only in the distant sky, but also in the wetland below, there were many figures approaching his location quickly.
Obviously, they are all coming towards themselves.
Moreover, being able to mobilize the Pokémon inside the wetland to do such a thing, it is obvious that the approximate identity of the other party can also be known.
Not long after, a Muke eagle with a killer hairdo on its forehead slowed down not far in front of it, its powerful wings continued to flap, and finally stopped some distance away.
On its back, it was wearing a dark police uniform, and its face was younger than all the Junshas it had seen before. Miss Junsha, who looked like she was a few years older, was looking at it with an embarrassed look on her face. He then turned his attention to Mechanical Greymon.
Not long after, he took out a newspaper from somewhere, looked at it and then at himself, the expression on his face became more and more tangled.
Seeing that the other party was hesitant to speak, Qingliu took the initiative and said: "Miss Junsha, are you here for anything?"
"without……"
Miss Junsha shook her head, hesitated for a moment and asked: "Excuse me...is this Mr. Qingliu, right?"
"Yes, it's me."
"Excuse me...are you performing some special mission or something else?"
"No."
"So you came to Shiwon City to challenge the gym?"
"That's right."
After receiving the confirmation, Miss Junsha breathed a sigh of relief.
Then, there was another long silence.
So much so that Qingliu felt that this Miss Junsha was a little afraid of society.
After this slightly awkward atmosphere lasted for almost three minutes, the young Miss Junsha seemed to muster up the courage and said timidly: "Then...then...can you please go directly to Mr. Aoyagi?" Gym? The Suzuran Tournament is imminent, so hurry up... hurry up and collect badges."
"Thank you for your concern..."
Qingliu's expression was slightly strange.
"But, Miss Junsha came here just to tell me this?"
"Um……"
"Okay, I will arrange the time so that I won't miss the Lily of the Valley Conference. Does Miss Junsha have anything else to do?"
"without……"
"Then I'll leave first."
As soon as Junsha uttered a word, she heard that Qingliu had already finished replying and was giving instructions for MechanicalGreymon to continue moving forward, and she suddenly became anxious.
"There's... something's wrong!"
"Um?"
Feeling the doubtful gaze cast by Qingliu, Miss Junsha's face turned red.
After a long meal, he seemed to be completely prepared for it, and said in a very rapid voice: "Mr. Aoyagi, please don't destroy the Great Wetland. These are the only two original protected areas left in the Sinnoh region. If it is destroyed, many generations have lived here. , and Pokémon that are only suitable to live here really have no room to survive.”
Qingliu couldn't help but have questions in his head.
"What destroyed the wetland? What are you talking about?"
"Because I... I heard... among the new generation of trainers, there is a man named Qingliu who has many large Pokémon. He likes to cause destruction and destroys wherever he goes... I... I..."
Before Junsha finished speaking, Qingliu fell into silence.
Which bastard is spreading rumors?
It is true that I have destroyed many places, but isn't it because of the need of some more important things, so I have to do it or do it accidentally?
Why do you call yourself a person who doesn't do anything but is dedicated to sabotage?
Even if there are some special circumstances caused by mistakes, they are just accidents. They are not done subjectively. How can you slander yourself like this?
Qingliu took a deep breath and suppressed his excitement slightly.
"Miss Junsha, please tell me, who told you that I am this kind of person?"
Seeing Qingliu's sudden change in momentum, Miss Junsha replied with some uneasiness: "Everyone... is saying..."
"What do you mean by talking about it?"
Qingliu suddenly realized that the situation seemed a little different from what he imagined.
"Say it again means...Say it again."
"..."
Seeing that Qingliu didn't understand the meaning at all, Miss Junsha paused for a moment and added: "It means that many people in the Sinnoh region know the meaning of..., and it only made the news last week."
"news?"
"Um……"
As if she was afraid that Qingliu wouldn't believe it, Miss Junsha folded the newspaper in her hand and threw it over.
Qingliu took it and opened it.
What comes to mind is a line of eye-catching large characters.
"The trainer who caused havoc and destruction in the land of Sinnoh—The Destroyer Aoyagi and his evil Pokémon"
Below the title are some "deeds" of self-inflicted destruction and destruction. Many of them are real but have been omitted from beginning to end.
Some of them were completely unknown to the parties involved and were purely fabricated. At the end of the newspaper, there was a profile photo of Aoliu and a half-length photo of the six Pokémon he currently had in his hand.
Qingliu couldn't help but think of one thing when he saw the date on it.
At the same time, Mechanical Greymon also seemed to have thought of something, and its big blue eyes turned slightly and landed on Qingliu.
"Qingliu, could it be..."
MechanicalGreymon didn't finish what he said, but the meaning that only the two of them could understand undoubtedly verified his guess.
"Nine times out of ten, it's those guys..."
During the one-month training, in order to stimulate the fighting instinct of MechanicalGreymon, and also to promote the development of courageous character by using the fighting instinct in battle, in the sky outside Jiayuan City, although it did not cause much damage Destruction, but the noise caused by the battle was very loud, so loud that it could not even be described as shaking the earth and resounding through the sky.
Inevitably, it attracted attention.
There are some journalists among them.
These things were most likely made by them.
"No wonder when I passed through the towns and cities near Shiwon City, all the people along the way seemed to run away after seeing me.
"I thought I was afraid of MechanicalGreymon's size and the sharpness in its eyes before. Looking at it now, do I think I'm a saboteur, so I'm afraid to avoid it..."
It's just that even if it is to create traffic, it is impossible to be slanderous just for the sake of traffic. It can even be said to be unabashed slander.
Nowadays, he is completely trying to put a black label on himself, so as to attack him with public opinion.
This can't help but make Qingliu wonder if there is some pusher behind the scenes to promote the fermentation of this matter.
What's the point of doing this?
Who is the ultimate beneficiary?
However, if he remembered correctly, this newspaper called "Suzuran Island Observer" should be an official media under the Sinnoh Alliance.
Was it done by the Sinnoh Alliance?
Or something else?
But according to common sense, as his strength becomes stronger and stronger, there is no reason for this kind of thing to happen.
And according to the previous attitude conveyed by the alliance through the two investigators, the situation is different from the current situation.
Qingliu's eyes gradually narrowed.
Although I don’t know what the specific situation is now, these guys who wrote this news emoji and spread it must have bad intentions.
Also, did the Alliance know about it and didn't stop it?
Or should we say that even though it was stopped, it still reached such a scale?
"Don't let me catch you, or I'll show you what cruelty is."
Qingliu took a deep breath, his expression heavy and serious.
This time, he was completely in no mood to relax.
"Go to the gym to challenge first, and then find those guys, but before that, you need to understand the situation from the doctor..."
Qingliu turned his head and looked at Miss Junsha opposite, and said, "Miss Junsha, I want to go to your police station first. Please show me the way."
Upon hearing this, Miss Junsha nodded first, and then quickly realized something.
Is this... going to destroy the police station?
Do you still want to lead the way?
The alliance also issued information and notices about the other party a month ago. They need to be treated seriously and cannot be rude.
But this news was also released through some official channels of the league. Who should I believe?
Miss Junsha fell into confusion and did not respond for a long time.
This made Qingliu frown.
But before he could explain anything, a middle-aged man's loud roar suddenly came from the ground.
"Don't embarrass Miss Junsha, you are a destructive maniac. If you have the ability, come at me!"
As soon as the words fell, a middle-aged man who was half naked but wearing a cloak and a strange mask jumped up from the ground and threw the elf ball in his hand heavily.
"Gyarados, destroy the death ray!!"
