Chapter 352 Arriving at the Crown Snowfield, Nimo and the other three have undergone tremendous chan
Those were two boys in hospital gowns. They were probably no older than ten years old, which was too old to even receive a starter Pokémon.
No.
Even if a sick person got a starter Pokémon, it would be difficult for him to travel and go on adventures.
The living environment in the wild was completely different from that in the city, and the energy required by a trainer in Pokémon battles was something that patients could not bear.
Although they were both native Galars, and even from different cities, the hair colors of the two boys were unexpectedly different.
The obviously older boy with a more mature expression had short brown hair, while the other boy, who was thinner and didn't even dare to run fast when playing, had very eye-catching golden hair.
Luo Mu's eyes moved away from the two boys in hospital gowns and looked higher.
Behind the small courtyard built along the street was a white wall with a plaque of "Wooden Pole Medical Sanatorium".
Luo Mu showed a look of sudden enlightenment.
Speaking of which, according to the scenery he saw along the way.
The quiet and leisurely atmosphere of Mugan Town is very suitable for the environment and climate of recuperation. There is also the nearby town of Hualang, which is keen on running a ranch, as a neighboring town, which can replenish nutrients at any time.
It is reasonable to build a sanatorium here.
In the courtyard, under the care of the nurse, the brown-haired boy Tommy and his partner, the blond boy John, got a precious opportunity to go out.
The two children who had been in the ward for a long time cherished this time and played with the toys in their hands.
The toys in John's hand were a fire-breathing dragon figurine that was only a circle larger than his little hand, while the toy in Tommy's hand was an aluminum steel dragon.
Tommy and John lived in the same ward. Tommy came from Suchuan Town, and John was a local of Mugan Town.
Because he thought he was older than John, even though he also liked the fire-breathing dragon toy in John's hand and admired the champion Dandi like John, Tommy still gave the fire-breathing dragon to John and chose to take care of this "little brother" who was weaker than himself.
However, after playing for a while, without running violently, John's breathing began to become rapid.
John clutched his chest and breathed in the air, but his throat made a broken tone like a broken organ.
This made Tommy and the nurse beside him nervous instantly, and took John back to the building of the sanatorium in anxiety.
On the side, Luo Mu, who stood on the street and watched there for only two minutes, had a thoughtful look.
The two sick children in the Galar region seemed to have seen them somewhere before.
But it was a temporary stop after all, and Luo Mu sighed softly as if he was regretful.
Even in this world, getting sick is inevitable.
Even if the technology tree is a bit crooked, because of Pokémon, the Pokémon world should be very advanced in medical technology.
But even so, basic diseases and symptoms such as fever and colds still exist. The symptoms of the blond boy just now seem to be like asthma, but they should be different.
Just by watching the two children playing with their passion for the Pokémon toys in their hands, Luo Mu could probably see their love for Pokémon.
This is also the reason why he sighed, just like what he said before.
Trainers will hardly have the opportunity to travel when they are sick, because that is equivalent to suicide.
If the parents don't stop them, the alliance will also try their best to stop them.
But after all, this is just the various aspects of life that he saw when he stopped for a few short minutes. Luo Mu could only sigh and walked along the street towards the hotel.
Let's sleep in the hotel tonight.
"Hu"
After checking in the room, Luo Mu, who had been rushing for half a day, inserted the room card into the wall at the door, sat on the soft bed and sighed comfortably.
Then, Luo Mu released the Pokémon in his Poké Ball one by one.
Although the environment inside the Poké Ball is not bad, they prefer to rest in the outside world rather than in the Poké Ball.
After a while, the figures of Roentgen, Mimikyu, Blade of the Blade, Swampert, Dragonite, Arcanine, Vulpix, Victini and Healer appeared in the room.
Basically, except for Dragonite, which he would definitely bring with him when he went out, the healer Arcanine and the super charger Victini, the Pokémon that Luo Mu brought with him were either the main force or the main force of the second team like Arcanine. Even Vulpix was brought because the environment of the Crown Snowfield was very suitable for it.
As for the Sandshrew couple, they recently built a nest deep in the ice cellar. Only one Pokémon appeared at mealtime every day, and a portion was packed and taken back for the spouse to eat.
Luo Mu thought that something might have happened, so he didn't bring them with him.
Luo Mu carried nine Pokémon with him.
Fortunately, the room Luo Mu ordered was the largest one, so big guys like Dragonite and Arcanine could move around in the room.
Then, Luo Mu took out Roentgen's new nest, the round cat scratching board, from the space backpack one by one.
There was also a doll that Dragonite held when sleeping, and slippers specially prepared for Windy Dog to bite so that it would not damage the decorations in the hotel room.
After a while, all kinds of strange things from the farm filled the entire hotel room. If someone who didn't know saw it, they would think Luo Mu lived here all the time.
The cat stretched lazily on the scratching board. Seeing its raised buttocks, for some reason, a few words suddenly appeared in Luo Mu's mind.
"My buttocks can hold up a bottle of soda."
Swampert was in the corner of the room, hitting the sandbag that Dragonite had hung on the ceiling for it. Victini, who was waiting in line, was eager to try.
Windy Dog was crawling next to the cat, shaking its thick tail and biting a pair of brand new slippers on its paws.
The flower therapy ring floated in the center of the hotel room and began to emit floral fragrance, filling the room with a pleasant floral fragrance that could relieve fatigue and heal the soul.
Dragonite was holding the cute furry Vulpix sister, and Mimikyuu seemed to feel a little sorry that Monarch Snake could not join their trip this time.
That's right, Mimikyuu defined this trip as a long-lost trip.
But Mimikyuu also knows that the extremely cold environment is not only unfavorable to the Monarch Snake, just like ordinary snakes that choose to hibernate in order to maintain body temperature and resist the cold winter.
Although Monarch Snake, as a Pokémon, can resist the desire to hibernate by consuming energy, it must be unable to cheer up in the environment of the Crown Snowfield, which is colder than the simulated snow mountain of the Blueberry Snowfield.
Instead of this, the Monarch Snake staying on the farm can not only make them feel more at ease, but also save the Monarch Snake from enduring the severe cold.
Several Pokémons are busy with their own things, and Luo Mu first checked whether the equipment in the space backpack is complete, and whether there is enough food and water.
Although the snow on the ground of the Crown Snowfield can be used to quench thirst to a certain extent, Luo Mu will not do so unless it is absolutely necessary.
At worst, there is Swampert who can create water flow, but drinking the water sprayed from its mouth requires a certain degree of psychological preparation, but fortunately Luo Mu has already done this preparation.
It's not a big problem.
If the equipment, food and water are insufficient or incomplete, replenish them in Mugan Town or the neighboring Hualang Town before entering the Crown Snowfield.
Fortunately, Luo Mu was very cautious in preparing supplies due to his previous travel experience, and with Zhihuixing's supervision, basically everything was complete.
Before taking a shower, Luo Mu thought about it and took out his mobile phone to send a message to "Nimo" in his contacts, informing her that he had arrived in Mugan Town and would take the Steel Armored Raven flying taxi to the Crown Snowfield early tomorrow morning.
This was also a little consolation for the frightened people.
Soon, before Luo Mu put down his mobile phone, the phone made a series of ding-dong sounds and slight vibrations, which even attracted the attention of several Pokémon.
Nimo: Oh oh oh! I will try my best!
Papa: Help. Help!
Mudan: Actually, you can buy a train ticket to the Crown Snowfield. I hacked into the weather center of Galar and found that it would gradually snow in the Crown Snowfield from night, and there would even be blizzards in some areas. Because of the unpredictable weather, the Steeljaw flying taxi might be out of service.
Pipa: Teacher Luo Mu, is there no way to let my fist hit the ghost-type Pokémon?
Pioni: Woohoo, you are finally here, my soul friend!
After Luo Mu finished browsing the message: "."
Subconsciously ignoring the fifth message, Luo Mu replied to the messages from the four students one by one.
Praise Nemo, comfort Papa, and thank Peony for the information.
As for Pipa's question, Luo Mu thought about it, and then tapped his slender fingers on the phone keyboard a few times and sent the edited message back.
Luo Mu: Pokémon with see-through moves, smell detection moves, or courage characteristics can hit ghost-type Pokémon with general or fighting-attribute moves.
After replying, Luo Mu put down his phone again, as if he had just realized something, and his expression became strange.
Pipa, this kid... No, judging by age, she is only a few years younger than me.
Pipa is planning to use her fists and feet to deal with the ghost?
This is too brave.
Fortunately, the incident in Frozen Village was not a haunted incident, so there is no need to worry that she will give away her life for no reason.
Thinking of this, Luo Mu stood up and stretched his waist, intending to go to the bathroom to take a bath, eliminate the fatigue of the journey, and by the way, replenish his energy for tomorrow's trip to the Crown Snowfield.
The Blue Blade Ghost also happened to come out of the bathroom and nodded slightly to Luo Mu.
It has adjusted the water temperature to the most appropriate level with its own flame.
When Luo Mu remembered the reason why the Blue Blade Ghost planned to use its fire attribute Pokémon's talent for temperature sensing to adjust the water temperature because it was worried that the water temperature was too hot, his heart was slightly warmed.
"I have been bothering you all the time."
After smiling at the Blue Blade Ghost, Luo Mu walked into the bathroom to take off his clothes, intending to wash his body before entering the bathtub.
Just as the sound of water dripping sounded in the bathroom and the glass door was blurred by the mist brought by the hot water, several Pokémon did not notice that one of their companions disappeared.
Mimikyu used its talent and quietly planned to sneak into the bathroom to take a bath together.
However, before it could sneak into the shadow, Luo Mu's faint voice suddenly sounded in the bathroom: "Don't think I can't find you."
In an instant, Mimikyu's movements suddenly stiffened, and the Pokémon's eyes were also cast here because of the amplified echo in the bathroom.
"Meow"
Roentgen Cat got up reluctantly, walked to the bathroom door with a particularly imposing cat step, picked up Mimikyuu by the scruff of the neck (?), and led it away from the bathroom door.
After Luo Mu changed into a new set of pajamas and left the steamy bathroom, and received the hot air blow-drying service of Technician No. 149 Dragonite, he lay comfortably on the bed and fell asleep surrounded by Pokémon.
A good night's sleep.
Mugan Town Station.
"It's just as Mudan said."
Carrying a bag of thick winter clothes that would be convenient for changing when arriving at the Crown Snowfield, Luo Mu looked at the conspicuous red highlighted reminder on the station and sighed slightly.
[Due to the weather, the Steel Armored Raven flying taxi to the Crown Snowfield is temporarily closed. Passengers in urgent need can choose to take the train to the Crown Snowfield]
Carrying Victini, who was curious about the architecture of the Mugan Station, which was different from the Unova and Padia styles, Luo Mu followed the Vulpix, whose cuteness almost attracted 100% of the people's attention, and went straight to the ticket office.
Perhaps because Mugan Town is a town suitable for retirement, the ticket seller turned out to be a kind old lady.
Found someone standing in front of the ticket office, the old lady slowly handed the half-knitted scarf in her hand to the green caterpillar who was assisting her, and looked up at the person who came.
Her gentle eyes fell on Luo Mu, Victini on Luo Mu's head, and Vulpix, who insisted that Luo Mu hold him.
The old lady who sells tickets first showed a look of surprise, then smiled and praised them without pretense: "What lovely Pokémon, where are you going?"
"Thank you for your compliment."
For the friendly people, Luo Mu couldn't help but smile, and Victini and Vulpix on him were very happy because they were praised.
"I plan to go to the Crown Snowfield. Are there any trains going there now?"
"Yes, yes."
Looking at the cute Victini and Vulpix, the old lady smiled even more brightly, but she didn't notice the jealous look of the caterpillar beside her.
She put on her reading glasses and searched for a while on today's train list, then looked up and said, "There is a steam train to Crown Snowfield at 8:30, which will arrive at about one or two in the afternoon. Do you want to buy a ticket?"
"Steam train?"
Luo Mu blinked, and suddenly remembered that the Galar region seemed to be famous for its steam technology, and there were modern industrial cities like the Engine City full of steam engines.
"Then this ticket, please give me one."
"Okay, Pokémon that are no larger than one meter do not need to buy tickets, so the total is 2,500 Alliance Coins."
After Luo Mu handed over the cash, the old lady quickly handed a ticket to Luo Mu and gave him a few instructions.
"Young man, we've been notified that the weather in the Crown Snowfield may be unpredictable in the next few days. Don't force yourself when you get there. If you encounter danger, be sure to call for help."
Luo Mu paused as he was leaving with the ticket. Even though he had already known this information through Mudan, he was still grateful for the kind reminder from the ticket seller, "I understand. Thank you for your reminder."
After saying goodbye to the ticket seller, Luo Mu followed the signposts above the station and successfully arrived in front of a steam train that looked quite retro and full of the beauty of the steam age.
The door of the train was already open, although it was still ten minutes before departure.
But thinking that there was nothing to do standing outside, Luo Mu took Victini and Vulpix directly into the train.
After entering the train compartment, the empty compartment made Luo Mu look surprised.
On the contrary, Victini and Vulpix were excited about the empty compartment and even chased and played in the aisle.
Although there were no passengers other than himself on the train, it might affect the train staff. Luo Mu picked up the two Pokémon one by one, took out some snacks and asked them to sit next to him quietly, and then he began to think.
Speaking of which, it was just like the reminder of the old lady just now.
Because of the unpredictable weather, coupled with the originally cold climate of Crown Snow.
All this may have caused the trainers who might have gone there for adventure, and the explorers who wanted to climb the snowy mountains to choose to cancel their travel plans or postpone their time for this reason.
This resulted in only a few passengers going to other places on the waiting terrace, and there was no one in the carriage.
It didn't take Luo Mu long to wait, and there was no stoppage of the train due to accidents.
Under the curious and surprised expressions of Victini and Vulpix lying on the window of the train, a powerful and penetrating whistle sounded.
The steam train that started running made a dull and powerful roar, and the axle of the train and the rails made a clattering sound, full of rhythm.
Then, a sheet of white steam gushed out from the steam release valve on the top of the steam train, making a crisp "hissing" sound.
After a few seconds of countless sounds, the steam train began to run under the excited shouts of Victini and Vulpix, and drove smoothly towards the distant Crown Snowfield.
The train traveled for several hours in total. Just as the old lady at the ticket station said, the steam train stopped at the Crown Snowfield Station built in the northwest corner of the Crown Snowfield, a place called Qixueyuan, at 1:30 pm.
Luo Mu took Vulpix and Victini out of the station smoothly, when a cold wind blew.
Vulpix screamed happily as if he was back home and jumped up and down in the snow.
Victini itself is very angry, so the cold wind is nothing to it.
As for Luo Mu, who was least resistant to cold weather, he had already put on thick cold-proof clothes, a scarf around his neck, and a warm hat on his head.
Although this looks a little bloated, it is also really warm.
At least the cold wind of this level in the sledding field couldn't even break Luo Mu's defense.
"Huh"
After taking a breath of slightly cold air, Luo Mu exhaled another breath of white mist. Looking at the white mist that gradually dispersed between the sky and the earth, Luo Mu slowly cast his eyes around and into the distance.
Everything you look at is white with snow. Tall and green trees stand tenaciously around them. Their leaves are covered with thick snow. At this time, as long as you step forward and shake the trunk a few times, you will be buried by the snow.
The air is filled with fresh air, accompanied by the faint fragrance of snow and pine wood.
In the distance are towering snow-capped mountains. The continuous and steep snow-capped mountains integrate the complex terrain of the Crown Snowfield. If you are not careful, you may even get lost in it. If you cannot wait for rescue, you may even encounter an accident.
It seems that the snow has stopped, and you can see the blue and high sky, with the occasional white clouds floating over the snow-capped mountains. It is a beautiful scenery that is far away from the city and retains the most original style.
"Obviously I saw a lot of snow falling on the train just now. Just like what Peony and the old lady said, the weather is capricious."
After sighing, Luo Mu lowered his eyes and looked at Vulpix and Victini who were having a great time playing in the snow. He just smiled and waited directly on the plain of the sledding field.
Just when he was about to get off the train, he sent a message to Nemo and the others.
The time should be coming soon.
After all, not far from the sledding field is Dong Ning Village.
As Luo Mu expected, after getting off the car and waiting for a few minutes, a figure walking beside him took heavy steps at the other end of the snowfield and walked towards Luo Mu.
It was a Pokémon that was almost exactly the same as the elephant in Luo Mu's impression, except that its bronze body was covered with dark green rust, and its whole body was covered with irregular patterns of bronze color.
The most eye-catching thing should be the huge pieces of bronze on its head.
It was a Pokémon named King Bronze Elephant, which was of pure steel type and had the attribute "Force" or "Heavy Metal".
The king's bronze elephant seems to be carrying several people on its back.
When it got closer and closer, Luo Mu also completely saw the person on the back of the king's bronze elephant.
It was Nemo, the four who hadn't seen each other for a month, and the trainer of the King's Bronze Elephant, Pioni.
It seemed that the heavy pace of the King's Bronze Elephant attracted their attention. Victini and Vulpix, who were piling up the "Frost Milk Fairy" snowman, stopped for a moment and looked at the behemoth with surprised faces.
When the King's Bronze Elephant stopped in front of Luo Mu, Luo Mu could better observe the powerful aura of the King's Bronze Elephant.
It seems that this king bronze elephant is Pioni's trump card, and it is indeed worthy of the name of the former league champion of the Galar region.
After sighing in his heart, Luo Mu looked at Nimo and the others who waved to him with excited expressions.
At this sight, he was instantly stunned.
The thick dark circles under his eyes are comparable to those of a naughty panda. His face seems to be a little pale due to staying up late and being frightened for many days. There are even traces of peeling on his lips.
The appearance of the four students was in starkest and most impactful contrast to Luo Mu's impression of how energetic they were before summer vacation.
No, with Nemo and the other four looking like this, could it be possible that some kind of snow witch came into the village and sucked their energy away?
