Pokémon: Hoenn Storm

Chapter 641 Dislocation Time and Space (35)

Landing in the open space in the middle of the camp, Lai found helplessly that everyone in the camp had stayed away, leaving a huge space.

Not long after, two middle-aged trainers who seemed to be the leaders came over with two boxes of resources that they considered to be quite precious, and placed them in front of them.

Looking at each other, how could Lai and Naqi not know the reason in such a situation?

Shaking his head, Lai explained with a hint of bitterness: "Everyone, I made it very clear. I just want to come here to buy some supplies, clothes and maps. If possible, I hope you can exchange some information with us. You guys What is it for?"

"Are you really not a looter?" One of the middle-aged men looked at Lai with some doubts, always somewhat disbelieving.

"What are plunderers? Wandering robbers?" Lai was confused. His memory of Xicui definitely did not include this kind of existence. In this continent, people from various regions should get along quite harmoniously. right.

"No, they are not robbers, but a few very powerful and cruel people. Even Captain Zhubei and Captain Gangshi are difficult to defeat alone. Only Boss Magamu can suppress them, so our So many people have gathered in the camp, and the frequency of going out to explore has been reduced. I originally thought that you are much stronger than them, and you are their leader." Seeing that Lai's expression did not seem to be fake, the middle-aged man explained.

Lai nodded slightly, noted down the existence of "Marauder" that exceeded his expectations, and said: "Yes, I understand. Thank you very much for clarifying my doubts. I don't know what to call it? I am Maia, and this is mine. Fiancee, Fiona."

After some thought, Lai did not reveal his real name out of fear of time and space, but instead used a pseudonym that was only used briefly in the Hunter organization.

After a little hesitation, the middle-aged man reported their names: "My name is Ludo and his is Mirko."

Rai nodded: "Hello, Mr. Ludo, Mr. Mirko. I would like to ask, do you have any information about these marauders? For example, their appearance, strength, Pokémon they have, etc., for a trip like ours We need to pay more attention to it. In addition, can we buy some supplies, clothing to keep out the cold, and maps?"

"Of course there is. We can go to my tent to communicate in detail later this evening. As for the supplies, maps and clothing you need, I can make the decision and provide them to you for free." Ludo's eyes lit up and he took the initiative court.

"Free is not necessary. I see that your life is not that rich. I can still give this money and I must give it. However, Mr. Ludo, do you think it is okay for me to use this kind of material to convert the price? I My fiancée and I have been lost for a long time since we came to this continent, and we haven’t had any contact with the currency here.”

Lai also understood the other party's intention. After politely declining, he took out a few ordinary-looking attribute gems and handed them over.

Ludo looked at Rai and Mirko with a little regret, took the attribute gem, looked at it carefully, and nodded:
"Of course there is no problem in exchanging goods for price. If you can trust me, I will convert it for you according to the market price, or you can exchange it for cash. The whole process will be carried out by the merchants of the Ginkgo Chamber of Commerce in the camp, okay?"

"Thank you. By the way, I want to know, do you know a young man who is a bit strange and has a strong ability to conquer wild Pokémon? During my previous trip, I seemed to have heard someone mention it by chance. , but he was in a hurry and didn’t tell me in detail.”

Lai nodded politely and pretended not to ask the most important question of the day.

"A bit strange, and very good at taming wild Pokémon? Are you talking about Mingyao?" Ludo's tone was a little vague.Feeling happy, he pretended to think for a while, and nodded slightly: "It seems to be this name, I'm not entirely sure. Do you know any news about him?"

"I know a little bit. He should be famous everywhere. He suddenly appeared about five years ago. The illustrated book we are using now was also completed with his help. He even conquered the great Sinnoh continent. Lord, although it turned out in the end that neither of those two gods were the true Sinnoh Lord. However, about three years ago, after all the illustrated information was completed, no one has seen him again."

Ludo also knew a lot about this real man of the hour, and disclosed all his information in a few sentences.

As soon as he said this, Lai had a clear understanding of the time he was in.

My own time travel is more like a variant of Beishang's, except that I haven't lost my memory.There is a certain time and space misalignment between the time point of time travel and the period of the plot that he is familiar with.

Although it is not a very good node, it at least avoids the risk of direct contact with a certain alpaca's biological son and being monitored by it 24 hours a day.

Thinking of this, Lai secretly breathed a sigh of relief, and his mood became much brighter. He smiled and said: "It turns out there is such a magical person. I have gained a lot of knowledge. Thank you very much, Mr. Ludo."

"It's just a bit of news that everyone knows, it's nothing." Lu Duo waved his hand and said politely.

After that, he raised his voice and called to the trainers who were still watching in the distance: "Okay, everyone, please leave. There is nothing else. Mirko and I will receive this guest personally!"

It can be seen that the two of them still have some prestige in the camp. As soon as these words came out, the trainers who were extremely afraid just now left the place one after another and continued to do their own things.

Out of the corner of his eye, he glanced at the large-billed gulls and Tanabata bluebirds who were still slightly on guard. Ludo's eyes and tone became a little more eager: "Mr. Maia, Miss Fiona, you can first buy some supplies according to your requirements. Then I will introduce to you the situation of the marauders. Mirko and I are waiting in the middle tent. Although you two are very strong, you still have to be more careful when facing those extremely vicious guys."

"Thank you for your concern, I will definitely visit." Lai's attitude was always neither far nor close, and there was a bit of distance in his politeness, which made Ludo unclear about the truth. The only thing that can be determined is that he is extremely powerful in this era.

Thinking of the ultimatum dropped by the marauders from high altitude not long ago, he secretly made up his mind to leave behind this pair of unimaginably powerful people at a time when support from Team Galaxy, Team Kong, and Team Pearl could not arrive in time. Unmarried couple for a while.

······
"Laimaia, are you talking about this Ludo, will he tell us false information later?" During the fitting, Naqi seized the opportunity and asked Lai softly. She was not used to the name Maiya. , I almost let it slip, but luckily I got it back in time.

"False information is not possible, because it will easily reveal flaws, and he dare not take a gamble. However, they will not trust us too much, so it is inevitable to say something selectively, say more, say less, it all means Uncertain. But we are the active party, so don’t worry about it. I’m just curious about who this ‘looter’ is.”

Rai also lowered his voice and explained to Naqi.
