Chapter 1237 Crimson God Joins the Team
Six months have passed.

Dr. Fortu's words and actions remained as human as ever.

Thinking about it carefully, if we hadn't seen him start up on his own when we first met, who would be sure he was a robot based solely on his subsequent behavior?

"PhD."

Good morning, Doctor!

The group greeted each other politely, and Dr. Futu responded with a smile, like a kind elder.

"Pippa!"

He called softly to his child, his eyes filled with tenderness, "Has your wish come true?"

Pipa nodded eagerly, beaming, "It's a success! Everyone is very satisfied with my cooking!"

"That's good."

Dr. Futu affectionately stroked Pipa's head.

The vivid and complex facial expressions drew quiet admiration from Duobian Mobile, who exclaimed, "He's so lifelike! Such rich emotions!"

"You're not bad either."

Cypress lightly tapped the phone screen.

Robots and polygonal creatures are, in a sense, the same thing, since they are both man-made products.
Polygon II paused slightly, then said somewhat embarrassedly, "I almost forgot, hehe."

How could I forget that?

But on second thought, this might be a manifestation of integrating into the larger group from the inside out.

Do not incur unnecessary psychological burden due to your own special circumstances.

pretty good.

Kashiwa tapped the screen, and a shy expression immediately appeared inside.

Then, led by Dr. Fortu, the group visited the renovated Fourth Observatory.

I remember the last time I came here, this place was completely destroyed by the battle between Guleton and Milton, leaving only a ruin covered in crystals.

"Currently, everyone's research and development focus is on Taijing Energy."

Dr. Futu chuckled and said, "Many researchers believe that it's a waste to use such abundant crystal energy in Zone Zero only in the combat field."

"If it can replace some of the energy available on the market, then it can truly benefit all mankind."

Dr. Futu originally intended to turn Sector Zero into a paradise for his family.

Unfortunately, subsequent events not only led to Dr. Orlin's death, but he himself also perished.

Having inherited all the memories and emotions, Futu AI knew that going it alone was not an option, so it accepted Yeci's proposal to develop Taijing Energy.

There is only one requirement—

The Zero Zone Research Institute will remain unchanged.

Ye Ci was very generous; even though she knew that Futu AI was not the doctor himself, she still accepted the request.

Both parties reached a satisfactory cooperation agreement.

Regarding the development of Taijing Energy, Futu AI refused to take the lead, claiming that he only inherited memories and emotions and was not as intelligent as the doctor.

Of course, the doctor had long envisioned many developments for Taijing Energy, which can be used as a basis for further progress.

The current research focuses on scheme ①.

Upon hearing this, Kashiwagi inexplicably felt a sense of doubt.

Is this really a concept left behind by the PhD student? Is it possible that it's an idea of ​​the Fortu AI itself?
Dr. Futu's initial idea for creating Futu AI was definitely not to give his son a new father, but rather that he created one himself after Dr. Orin passed away, when he had no suitable assistant to help him.

Since I was able to help him, I must have done at least 80-90% of my ability, if not 100%.

Why does Futu AI want to hide?
Kashiwagi started speculating about conspiracy theories again. Since he hadn't been able to find the big boss yet, he now suspected everyone.

—Who says Futu AI can't make the same mistake again?

This is why he asked about the time machine and the Great Void of Zero as soon as he arrived in Padia.

"Doctor, what is the status of the Zero Void?"

He asked impatiently.

Dr. Futu replied, "If you're asking about the exploration there, I can only say it's still unclear. The only thing we know is that there's a special Pokémon there called Talebagas."

'Taylorbagos'.

They had seen this name in the book of vermilion in Bai Leiya's possession.

Kashiwagi's ability to travel back to the past of Kitakami Village was once thought to be caused by Talebagos.

Nemo and the others all looked at him, and Kashiwagi, without hesitation, began to explain their guesses.

"……maybe."

Dr. Furtu's answer was ambiguous: "To be honest, the time machine operates smoothly with the help of the crystals, but there are still many unclear aspects in the study of the crystals."

To truly unravel the secrets of terrestrial crystallization, perhaps only by finding the Talebages can we do so.

Kashiwagi was a little curious, but only a little.

Essentially, he was reluctant to contact Talebagos at this stage, worried that the guy might send him somewhere else again.

It's fine to send it over, but what if it's returned at the wrong time?
For example, the dragon man, who had been missing for a month, arrived in the ancient Beishang Township only one day earlier than Bai Mu.

Moreover, the time he was sent back was the same as when Kashiwagi sent him back.

As they walked, they followed the ramp to the Zero Zone Research Institute at the very bottom of the lower level.

Millerton and Gullerton are still fighting.

"This idiot!"

Bai Mu sighed and rubbed his forehead.

Because the three-headed dragons excessively flaunted their title of Dragon King, which they had won through hand-to-hand combat, Milton and Guldur stopped using techniques in their fight and instead tried to clash with each other using physical strength.

Can they possibly win?

Even though it is very fast, it is no match for Fighting-type Pokémon in close combat!
Fortunately, the Cyber ​​Giant Lizard didn't lose either.

Having frequently battled Pokémon like Aggron, its combat experience far surpasses that of Guldur, which is holed up in this deep pit.

Many combat skills need to be developed through practice.

but……

“If you keep going like this, Guleton will steal all your techniques,” he shouted.

The two large lizards, which had been rolling around on the ground, paused in their movements.

Milton was surprised, therefore Milton was guilty.

The latter has exceptional combat talent; it can certainly learn anything Millerton can learn, and it learns melee combat skills even faster!
However, Gu Leton did not expect that his little scheme would be seen through so easily.

"Gah!"

Milton was furious, glaring at Milton as if it had done something unforgivable.

Therefore, Leighton glared back defiantly, "Gah!"

You wanted to do it yourself!

then.

After Kashiwagi and the others entered the Zero Zone Research Institute, they heard the whooshing sound of magic flashing outside, as well as Guleton's screams.

Four times the restraint is still too authoritative.

Nemo laughed and said, "Millerton's Magic Dazzle is too cheating!"

"So Leighton was just unlucky."

Cypress shook his head.

If Game Freak had been more generous and given it a fire attribute instead of a fighting attribute, then Leton wouldn't have been bullied by Milton so badly.

They probably felt that the Fire Dragon, combined with its ability to create sunny weather, was a bit too overpowered.

Inside the Zero Zone Research Institute.

With the time machine moved away, the entire hall became much more spacious.

The underground space had been converted into a storage room, crammed with all sorts of old things. Kashiwagi immediately spotted the photograph he had almost taken with him—

A photo of Pipa and Oujiao Mastiff.

I thought it might come in handy... When the Futu AI was controlled by the system, Kashiwagi really had this idea.

Unfortunately, the Polymorph army was too powerful, forcibly shutting down the time machine and modifying its program, preventing the touching scene that was supposed to take place from happening.

Of course, the fact that Fortu AI is still alive is far more important to Pipa than a fleeting moment of emotion.

Dr. Futu led everyone to the bottom via elevator.

Outside the elevator doors, a deep cave illuminated by countless crystals came into view.

Nemo exclaimed excitedly, "This is the Great Void of Zero!"

"You haven't been here before?"

"No, President Yeci said we shouldn't explore for the time being, so how could I possibly sneak in?"

"..."

Fine.

Kashiwagi was convinced by Nemo; our student council president is just that obedient.

"Do you want to go in? There shouldn't be any danger on the outside."

Dr. Futu turned around and said, "Just come back before dinner. I can cover for you."

Pipa and Peony both looked at Kashiwagi, and Nemo, who was about to speak, also looked over for some reason.

The three of them undoubtedly centered around him.

Kashiwagi said calmly, "Let's explore this place again later."

He was genuinely afraid that Talebagos would send him to some other time and space again, and he didn't even want to stay there any longer.

Nemo breathed a sigh of relief; to be honest, she was very worried that Kashiwagi wanted to go inside and explore.

Should she stop it or acquiesce?

The group took the elevator up.

After they left, deep within the Zero Void, a prismatic crystal shimmered faintly.

"Woo?"

A confused voice came from within.

-

Return to the fourth observation station.

The group had lunch here.

"Without further ado, if you don't have anything else you want to do, get ready to take action."

"I said."

Nemo and Peony both looked at Pipa.

Among them, perhaps only this one has personal matters to attend to, seeing his father only once a month. He must have a lot to say to him.

Papa was slightly taken aback, then hurriedly waved his hand and said, "Don't look at me, I'm fine!"

Peony: "But you finally made it all this way..."

“You can come back after it’s over!” Pipa didn’t want to waste her friends’ time.

That’s all I have to say.

The group bid farewell to Dr. Futu and prepared to return to the middle level to carry out the capture operation of the ancient Ho-Oh Guard and the future Swordmaster.

Dr. Futu said, "I will connect the surveillance system to Polygon II in real time to make it easier for you to search."

"Thank you so much, Doctor. You've been a great help."

Bai Mu quickly thanked him.

The zeroth district is about one-ninth the size of Parthia, and it takes a long time to find.

Dr. Fortu shook his head and handed another Master Ball to Piper. "Since Guleton is just sitting here idly anyway, let it travel with you this time."

"Uh."

Piper wanted to refuse.

However, considering that Guleton's fighting strength was considerable, he accepted the challenge.

"Be careful, children. Some things don't have to be forced." Dr. Futu smiled gently and saw them off to the lower level.

Milton and Gullton accompanied them, the two large lizards occasionally glaring at each other.

Piper glanced at the Masterball in his hand, then at Guleton who was quietly scrutinizing him, and decisively handed it to Nemo. "You'll be in charge of this guy for now."

"I?"

Nemo was reluctant to accept.

It wasn't that she discriminated against Old Rathian, but rather that she wanted to train her Pokémon by capturing the Ancient Ho-Oh Guard and the Future Swordsman.

Having lost to Kashiwagi too many times, she wanted her Pokémon to improve further and avoid falling behind.

Papa then looked at the peony.

Peony shuddered and quickly hid to the side, waving her hands repeatedly as if she really couldn't do it.

Piper's prejudice against Paradox Pokémon stems from her Mastiff Godfather, who was injured because of it; her prejudice against Paradox Pokémon is purely out of fear.

According to her own account—

'Don't you guys find it terrifying that something resembles certain Pokémon, yet isn't?'

But when Kashiwagi asked her, "If you can't accept Paradoxical Pokémon, what about Regional Forms?"

The regional morphology is actually acceptable.

Peony's psychology seemed a little strange to Kashiwagi.

"give it to me."

He took it directly, saying, "I have experience commanding multiple Pokémon, and..."

He looked at Guleton, and Guleton looked at him.

"So they won't fight anymore."

"Gah!"

The big red dog howled and then poised to pounce on the cypress tree again.

But before that, Shiny Gengar had already stuffed a sandwich into its mouth according to the trainer's eye command.

"You better behave yourself, there's plenty of this stuff."

"Woooo..."

So, whether he understood or not, Leighton started eating heartily.

The angry Milton was also given a stick by Gengar, and then it stopped being angry.

Two large lizards were happily eating as they walked.

Pipa looked puzzled. "Why do they like eating sandwiches so much?"

"Who knows? Maybe someone fed them before."

Peony adjusted her glasses.

Kashiwagi said, "I'm more inclined to believe it's just their preference than anything else. Do the motor lizards also enjoy eating sandwiches?"

"...I think so?"

Nemo nodded. "Anyway, mine really likes it, and I often share half a piece with it."

Piper replied, "I do that all the time."

I imagine there are many other people who did the same thing.

Because everyone loves to feed motorcycle lizard sandwiches, the Gulperton and Milerton, which are descended from motorcycle lizards, naturally have a high affinity for sandwiches.

Cypress squinted, looking at the undulating cliffs in the distance.

Under the sunlight, a verdant figure appeared slightly blurred, like a mountain rock covered in moss, yet it reflected a luster.

"Everyone, the first one has come knocking."

He slightly turned his head to remind the others.

Nemo and the others immediately looked ahead and saw Iron Leaf's figure in the sunlight.

"If it were here..."

"Rippling water!"

Papa whispered, and in the babbling brook not far away, stood another target—the rippling water!

Are they going to fight again?

Kashiwagi asked, "Nemo, which one do you choose?"

“Leave the turbulent waters to me!” Nemo decisively chose the more ferocious turbulent waters.

Peony was responsible for assisting her.

Before the two approached, Kashiwagi reminded them, "Don't forget the Sky-Piercing Flame and the Thunder Drum. They might come over again, so don't be careless."

"it is good!"

Nemo was not overconfident.

She boasted that defeating Bo Dang Shui would be no problem, but if she added Po Kong Yan and Meng Lei Gu to the mix, she would have to think twice.

The two each released Babubo and Sylveon.

According to Dr. Futu's information, Raging Water, Sky-Breaking Flame, and Thunder Drum have a high probability of increasing the Dragon attribute.

The future Holy Swordsmen, however, lost their fighting attributes and gained superpower attributes.

"Kashiwagi, what should I do?"

Piper inquired about his duties.

Kashiwa said, "Send out your Mastiff Godfather to scout out if there are any other future Holy Swordsmen or ancient Phoenix Guards nearby."

"it is good!"

Piper nodded quickly.

He wasn't saddened by his light responsibilities; on the contrary, he was glad that he wouldn't be a burden to Kashiwagi.

Meanwhile, the Mastiff Godfather and Piper were conducting reconnaissance.

Cypress looked up at the Iron-spotted Leaf perched high on the cliff and asked, "Is everything ready?"

"Ah, gah!"

Milton came to his side immediately.

Seeing this, Leighton also ran to the other side, raised his head and growled.

Kashiwagi smiled, "Very good... Let's go then!"

The words fell.

Two large lizards suddenly charged out!
