Pokémon: An Encounter with You

To some extent, although Shi Qiu cannot touch the Ranger, he can communicate with Riolu through the option of [Fight with the Ranger], which is a form of bug.

He possesses some special energy, and this energy is closely related to the simulator.

In the morning, when he walked up to the ranger again, he found that the combat option was no longer available.

【You encountered the Forest Ranger.】

[Talk to the Forest Ranger]

He subconsciously looked at the ranger and found that the center of the Poké Ball on his waist was glowing red.

It is locked from the outside.

Shi Qiu's expression became visibly worse as he looked at the two new options.

[1. Ask him for information about the newly appeared secret realm.] [2. Tell him that you want to become a forest ranger.]

Not to mention the new secret realm that had appeared in the forest, Shi Qiu could see that the second option was emitting a faint blue light, so he clicked on it.

【Forest Ranger: Forest Ranger is the core and pillar of the forest. 】

[Do you have the awareness to regard the forest as your home and live and die with it? ]

Shi Qiu nodded [Yes].

[Forest Ranger: Powerful trainer, I will start the trial in the forest to test your ability. ]

Along with the two options "I accept" and "I reject", a few lines of small words appeared below.

[Note: Selecting 'Accept' will start a large series of tasks: "Nature and Time". After completing some tasks and plots, you will inherit the identity of the ranger and obtain all the items of the ranger (including but not limited to: suits, special abilities, elves, etc.)]

[Warning: This task is unique and time-limited. Rejecting the task or failing the task will trigger "unforeseen events."]

"I was a bit impulsive." Shi Qiu sighed, then clicked [I Accept].

[Large series of tasks: Nature and Time Open]

【You are being transferred to the mission location. 】

After a dizzy spell, Shi Qiu came to his senses and looked around. Fortunately, Bubble Squirrel and Vulpix followed him.

"This is…"

Under the bright sunshine, half is forest and half is ocean.

Shi Qiu stood on the flat ground between the two.

【Select the area to explore this time. 】

【Note: This choice will affect the subsequent tasks. 】

[1.Area Forest] [2.D-5 Area Ocean]

Shi Qiu ordered the first item.

They will have more adventure experience in the forest and are more familiar with it. Now the strength of the two elves is not very high, so it is better to play it safe.

After making the choice, a mysterious force pushed Shi Qiu to the side of the forest, and then a translucent wall visible to the naked eye appeared at the junction of the beach and the plain.

[Mission objective: Protect the forest for 30 days. Mission completion will be determined based on the natural value of the forest after 30 days.]

[Natural value of the forest: including the completeness of the elf community, tree coverage, resources and environment, etc.]

[Act 1: The Wind of Beginning]

Shi Qiu took his backpack and explored the forest carefully. Finally, he found a big tree and waited and observed for a while.

"Foamy Chinchilla, the power of secrets."

When you come to a new map, the most important thing is of course a base.

The forest ticket in the backpack shows that it cannot be used, which means that this mission is continuous and cannot return to reality.

"Is the speed of time the same? If so, the outside world would have suddenly disappeared for a month... Fortunately, I took some time off beforehand."

This mission sounds very troublesome, and it is definitely impossible to accomplish it with just one person and two elves.

Shi Qichou frowned at the two leisurely Pokémon and said, "How come you two don't have any sense of danger at all!"

"I'm sure there will be a war among the elves, or some natural or man-made disaster."

Hearing this, Bubble Squirrel glanced at him and perfunctorily comforted the trainer with his tail.

Vulpix chuckled and meowed.

What are you afraid of? We will carefully find some gentle elves, and you can just cry and act pitiful.

The foamy chinchilla nodded in agreement.

Don't you feel the Pokémon affinity of a trainer? The Pokémon in the Ecological Park of Yuye Academy and the A-1 Forest area pounce on you every day, and they will dive into the Poké Balls they catch.

Shi Qiu thought of the herd of long-haired pigs in the secret realm of the ice field.

"It's not okay to act pitiful... I'm a trainer..."

"Alright... but you have to come with me."

Although there was an affinity buff in front of him, Shi Qiu still explored the area carefully.

The forest here is not much different from before, the only difference is that there are fewer elves.

In other words, there are very few elves left alone.

The forest area should have been divided into territories by various ethnic groups, large and small.

This is not good news, as it means that the conflict between ethnic groups that was just randomly mentioned has become possible.

There were three tribes closest to the [Secret Space] built by Shi Qiu and his team: Bulbasaur, Walker and Bees. Most of them appeared in groups, and Shi Qiu just watched from a distance and left.

The colony of the three bees is located in a flower sea area with few trees and unique scenery.

Occasionally, two or three bees would see Shi Qiu and become very friendly.

They flew around him in groups of three or four, inviting him to join their tribe. After being politely declined, they reluctantly lingered for a while before continuing their work.

Only after returning to the base did Shi Qiu feel relieved.

"Fortunately, these three types of Pokémon are all relatively gentle. If there was a swarm of Beedrills or Scythers, we would have to move immediately."

When he first arrived, Shi Qiu did not have much contact with the three surrounding ethnic groups.

But based on this preliminary exploration, some Pokémon are professional-level, and elite and senior-level Pokémon appear the most frequently.

While exploring the area with Bulbasaur, we also found a gym-level Bulbasaur taking a rest there.

Shi Qiu smiled bitterly: "The level of this map is a bit high."

Bubble Squirrel and Vulpix are training, one is still perfecting the [Music Venue], and the other is improving the proficiency of his skills.

"Bubble Chinchilla, during this time you can focus on training the healing bell."

Although it cannot restore physical strength, it is very effective for abnormal conditions and soothing the mind.

Shi Qiu focused his attention on Vulpix.

Vulpix's ice talent is extremely significant, and the development of [Ice and Snow Venue] is more complete than that of Bubble Squirrel. What is restricting him now is the level of energy.

"Vulpix, your ice energy is already saturated. Don't develop your skills for the next two days. Focus on improving your level."

There is certainly no shortage of battles in this forest. Shi Qiu plans to make some energy blocks and Pokémon to help Vulpix find some lone Pokémon to challenge and train.

"Fortunately, everything in my backpack is still there. If I can find some raw materials like tree fruits, I won't have to worry about food and lodging for the next month."

"Help Vulpix break through to the professional level first, and then get in touch with the tribe more deeply."

"The three bee tribes before... and Tian Tian Tian..."
