Chapter 202 Familiar faces coming one after another
As late at night approached, most of the trainers in the player village went back to recharge their batteries for tomorrow's battle. Only a few night owls were still wandering outside.
Of course, there is also a person like Zhou You who has slept almost all day and takes advantage of the night to change his outfit and go out to look for food.
After all, he is not a famous person. It is enough to achieve this level. When the heat is over, no one will care about him anymore.
After a while, he came to the restaurant that provided free food and accommodation for the players. After showing the illustrated book, he went to dine with Eden, who had transformed into Fire Eevee.
Although it is said to be a restaurant, it is actually not much different from an open-air food stall.
The space inside is quite wide, with tables spaced five or six meters apart, allowing most elves to come out of their elf balls to eat together. There is even a small ten-meter-square battle arena in the middle of the restaurant.
It always feels a little bit dangerous. Could you be hit by a stray bullet while eating?
Fortunately, there were not many people at the nightclub - after all, there were only 256 contestants, and 128 were eliminated today.
"You've been stuck in the elf ball all day, come out and get some air."
After sitting down, Zhou You threw all 5 Poké Balls.
The fairy milk fell into the bowl immediately, and he looked at the food on the table curiously.
It is customary to take care of the filial son on Zhou You's shoulders, waiting for him to be fed.
Eden and Yeyibu sat directly on the seats due to their small stature.
Zhanfan squatted obediently next to Zhou You, treating the tables, chairs and cutlery as if they were guests.
Arthur, on the other hand, had to stay in an open space a little further away because of his large size and dangerous tail flames.
"Eat your food, I have a few words to say."
While everyone was outside, Zhou You told the lesson he had learned from today's battle... He was not someone who only learned lessons from failure.
"You may have noticed today's battle in the Poké Ball. The battle at the Alliance Conference is very different from our usual battles."
“The venue for the official match is too big, and it is an open-air environment with poor radio reception. There are even noises from the audience and referees.
"In this environment, once you are a little farther away from me, it will be difficult for you to hear me if I don't shout instructions loudly.
"Once the elves on both sides enter the fighting stage, this will be more easily reflected. The slight sound of instructions in the chaos will not only fail to effectively convey the intention, but may also cause you to be distracted during the battle."
"In addition, being far away from you will also make it difficult for me to quickly judge the situation on the field. If the move hedges and explodes with smoke or something, I will have no choice but to stay there and be helpless."
Being too far away from the elves will inevitably lead to these two problems.
There is only one best solution, and that is for trainers to never leave 5 meters away from their own elves even in battle.
If the rules allowed it, Zhou You would not hesitate to rush into the arena to fight alongside his elves and provide support.
But the problem is that unrestricted battles are no longer popular in this era, and the rules simply do not allow trainers to leave the field in person.
At least there will be no unrestricted battles in official competitions...
The second solution is to wear durable headphones next to the elf's ears, but headphones are also not allowed by the rules.
"Oh, I really envy Xiaozhi and Yaxuan. It would be great if I also had the power of wave guide." Unfortunately, this is not something to be envied. Zhou You could only say seriously, "It can be predicted that the more fierce the battle, the more capable off-field trainers will be. The fewer instructions I will give you, so the focus from now on is to cultivate your ability to cooperate with me without instructions."
Before Zhou You finished speaking, Eden came up with a bold idea: "Actually, there is another way, that is, I, who has an overview of the overall situation, can take command instead of Qiao Qiao, so that instructions can be conveyed without loss, efficiently and accurately."
"This level of intervention is already considered cheating. If you really want to become a trainer, wait until you go to Hoenn next year and ask Dr. Oki to get you a trainer ID card."
It is also a feasible plan to let Eden transform into a human disguised as a trainer and form a doubles team with Zhou You.
After all, no one said that elves can't be trainers (nonsense).
Reaching out and touching Eden's forehead, Zhou You continued to explain to the elves what to do next if no effective instructions were obtained.
"Welcome, please show your trainer certificate."
I don’t know how long it took, but Zhou You’s thoughts were interrupted by the polite greeting from the waiter at the door.
Looking at his watch, it was already half past eleven. Curious, he looked around and saw a "familiar" figure.
The person coming was an orange-haired young man with bangs cut into an "X" shape.
This appearance alone was not enough to make Zhou You pay even more attention, but the flaming roaring tiger and rock-maned werewolf (appearing in the dark night) following the young man made him recall certain memories.
This configuration... looks familiar?
As if aware of the unfamiliar sight, the orange-haired young man turned to look at Zhou You after ordering his meal. Ye Yibu sitting next to him caught his eye.
Yeebu is extremely rare in the Kanto region, and is the trainer's elf that has been crazily replayed and analyzed for an entire afternoon.
Orange Hair took a deep look at Zhou You, and soon realized that the other person was the trainer who was in the limelight this afternoon. Looking around at the other elves, it seemed that they were all individuals whose level of training was not inferior to that of Ye Yibu.
I secretly thought to myself that the trainers in the Quartz Alliance are basically just chickens and dogs. I am afraid that my biggest opponent in this conference is Zhou You!
The orange-haired young man who guessed like this subconsciously sat in a corner out of sight, carefully looking at and analyzing the opponent's lineup while eating.
Zhou You is not afraid at all. He has decided to let himself go and make a name for himself in this conference.
"Welcome, please show your trainer certificate."
After a while, another familiar figure came to the restaurant.
"Qiaoqiao? The doctor has been in a panic since you've been missing for most of the day!"
"Pikachu!"
The person coming was none other than Xiaozhi.
In the evening, after learning through the computer in his room that one of the contestants had an opponent with whom he had some connection, Xiaozhi was in a bad mood. As night fell, he took the elf on him out for a round of exercise. He just happened to want to eat a midnight snack. I bumped into Zhou You who was out looking for food.
I planned to step forward to find out what the technology that allows elves to crystallize was, and by the way, I told the other party to call Dr. Oak as soon as I got home.
However, a cold gaze in the corner caught Xiaozhi's attention. When he checked the source of the gaze, his face suddenly looked as ugly as if he had eaten a fly.
"It's you! Cross!" Xiaozhi immediately shouted angrily, his emotions uncontrollable.
Cross, a trainer from other areas, was the bad trainer who abandoned Charmander in the wild three months ago and almost caused it to lose its life!
