Chapter 82 Teething stick, GetDAZE!
Chapter 82 Teething Stick, Get☆DA☆ZE...woof!
It didn't take much time and energy to sweep Team Rocket entrenched in the Pokémon Tower, but Junsha, who was on a mission near the Rock Mountain Tunnel, dispatched the police even faster after receiving news from Joey (who looked like Aster Town).
When Zhou You and Qinglu walked out of the Pokémon Tower, Junsha had already rushed to the scene with the few policemen from Ziyuan Town.
The two decisively handed over the rest of the mess to them, and went back to the Elf Center to rest comfortably.
As we all know, the favorite tasks of war-mad players/adventurers are simple and direct killings, and they have always had an aversion to tasks such as guarding, escorting, cleaning up messes, collecting items, and transmitting information.
"I walked from Jinhuang City to Ziyuan Town and stayed up late to level up Team Rocket. I feel very tired today."
Although they are adults according to the league's laws, Zhou You and Qinglu are still 10-year-old minors. Staying up late is still too harmful to their bodies.
Therefore, after returning from the Pokémon Tower, they did not continue to talk about Team Rocket's actions and big plans.
Zhou You, who had planned to go directly to rest, had just entered the elf center when a figure rushed towards him anxiously.
"Caracalla!" Little Caracalla, who was also physically and mentally exhausted from being attacked by Team Rocket, had been waiting for him until now.
"It's very worried about you." Ms. Joy from the industry revealed while eating late-night snacks in front of the stage. "Ever since you left, this Caracara has been looking at the direction you left with uneasiness."
"If you ask me, you are also a trainer anyway, so you can just adopt this caracara, otherwise it may encounter danger again even if it is released into the wild."
The wild environment is very harsh for elves like Caracalla who live alone. Elves who are hungry and well-fed often have a very short life span, and they are likely to be killed and preyed on by natural enemies every day.
The vulture Na, for example, preys on caracaras and uses their bones to build nests.
Although there are no such elves in Kanto, their lives are not much comfortable because of this. The rampant and rampant Rockets and elf hunters are always their biggest threats.
"Is that so, you like me so much?" Zhou You bent down and tapped its skull.
"Kara..." Karakara looked expectantly.
After saving himself and his dying mother from Team Rocket, the human in front of him undoubtedly gave him a very high sense of security.
Although the katy dog that keeps staring at the bones in his hand is a bit annoying, if this human being is his father... it's not impossible.
Huh? Why doesn't that smelly dog want my bones anymore?
Caracalla looked curiously at the kadi dog wandering behind him.
"Woof?" The latter seemed to be holding on to something that was far stronger than rattle bones and grinding his teeth with great interest.
Zhouyou:?
He followed Caracalla's gaze.
Damn it, this dog just took advantage of the dark sky and couldn't take care of it and picked up something the hell! ?
What Zhanfan was holding in his mouth at this time turned out to be an ancient brown sword with a blue ribbon on the hilt and a pattern like a ghost face engraved on it!
"What did you pick up in the Pokémon Tower? Shut up, stupid dog! This thing is probably someone else's offering to the deceased elf, not your teething stick!"
"(sluggish) woof..."
After hearing Zhou You's scolding, Shanfan showed a suspicious and intelligent look, and the brown ancient sword in his mouth hit the floor with a clang.
Arthur, who was still a little excited due to the battle just now and had not yet returned to the elf ball, came closer.
"(Looking) Wow?"
It curiously picked up the ancient sword, avoided the place where the leftover saliva was left on the scabbard, and pulled it out hard!
Only a choking sound was heard, and the ancient sword was immediately unsheathed!
"Quack!"
The green onion duck that was put into the ball by Zhou You sensed a hint of sword energy and spontaneously jumped out of the elf ball.
Who is exuding sword intent? This sword?
Contrary to its simple and heavy appearance, the blade of this ancient sword is exceptionally smooth and clean as new. In addition, its blade is blunt, heavy and uncut, so it should be just a replica collection.
This further confirms Zhou You’s conjecture that it was an offering.
"Why does this sword feel a little weird?" But Zhou You soon felt something unusual.
After the ancient sword was unsheathed, there seemed to be some kind of cold aura lingering around them.
It's almost like...
"Quickly, throw it away!" Joey put down his chopsticks and shouted anxiously, "That's the cursed sword that was suppressed by the prayer master in the fifth layer of the Pokémon Tower!"
"(Scared) Wow!" Arthur was so frightened by Joey that he immediately dropped the ancient sword.
…
It wasn't until Joey explained that everyone realized that the sword in front of them was not an ordinary thing, but a cursed item that would suck the life force of the holder through the blue ribbon on the hilt.
According to the judgment of the prayer master of Ziyuan Town, it is possessed by the ancient soul that died at its hands, wandering in the world, and will continue to rob the living of its vitality.
Because of this, the prayer masters placed it in the barrier on the fifth floor of the Pokémon Tower, hoping to suppress and weaken its power, and ultimately help the souls above to re-enter reincarnation.
Looking at the scabbard and ancient sword on the ground, everyone looked at each other, feeling a little at a loss for a moment.
"It's okay, just leave it there and ignore it."
In the end, Joey sighed: "I will ask the prayer master to put it back in its place tomorrow morning. Qiaoqiao, you should take good care of this puppy next time and don't let it pick up things randomly again."
"Uuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuu"
Shanghan realized that he had almost made a big mistake and fell to the ground in frustration.
"I will definitely teach it not to pick up things randomly, but this sword doesn't seem to be as simple as the prayer master said."
Following Joey's explanation, Zhou You regained some memories, took out his illustrated book and scanned the ancient swords on the ground——
"Didi Single scabbard, sword Pokémon, steel + ghost attributes. The physical durability is amazing, even a full blow from the Hercules Pokémon will hardly leave a scratch.
"According to legend, it was born when the soul of the deceased resided in the ancient sword, but recent research suggests that this is actually a special form of mimicry. The blue part on the sword grid is its body, and it uses the silk on the hilt to suck the life force of the host.
"Note: Only trainers with 4 or more badges can tame the elf. Please report to the nearest police station after capturing it. Trainers with medical conditions such as heart disease are strictly prohibited from possessing this elf."
Joey: "..."
The group of prayer masters in the co-author town actually made a complete mistake in their judgment. It was just a mistake to put it in the barrier?
"This elf seems interesting, Miss Joy. It doesn't matter if it is thrown into the barrier or not, it means it is ownerless, so I just take it away?"
"You can take it away if you like it, and remember to report it to Junsha." Joey, who was only interested in ghosts and not ghost elves, said feeling helpless.
"Kara!" Karakara looked at Zhanfan angrily.
You said you picked something bad, why did you just pick up an elf?
"Crack, click, click, click, click..."
Ignoring Caracalla's complaining gaze, after listening to the illustration explanation, the leftover food lay on the harmless scabbard and gnawed on it without any thought.
