As the night fell and the stars dotted the sky, Fang Ci and Qi Shu stood outside the Shining Cave, breathing deeply the air with the fragrance of the mountain forest. After a battle that was not thrilling, they successfully stopped the thieves who tried to steal the fossils in the cave, and they all felt relieved.

Next to the two, Lang Zhuang, who was no longer so guilty after being enlightened by Fang Ci, had a grateful smile on his face and said to them, "Thank you so much today. If it weren't for you, the Shining Cave might have been in trouble. To express my gratitude, I would like to invite you to have a simple meal in Guxiang Town at the foot of the mountain. How about it?"

Fang Ci and Qi Shu smiled at each other and gladly accepted Lang Zhuang's invitation. The three of them walked down the mountain road, chatting and laughing from time to time. When they arrived at Guxiang Town, night had completely fallen, and the lights on the street were on, adding a bit of warmth and liveliness to the town.

They found a small restaurant that was inconspicuous but well-reputed. The restaurant was filled with wooden tables and chairs, and some old photos and picture frames were hung on the walls. Lang Zhuang ordered a few local specialties and a bottle of homemade rice wine. The three of them sat around the table and began to enjoy this simple dinner.

The rice wine was sweet and the dishes were delicious. They ate and talked about stories about the mountains and forests, interesting things about work, and their visions for the future. The atmosphere in the restaurant was relaxed and pleasant, as if they had temporarily forgotten the pressure and troubles of the outside world.

Although the dinner was simple, it was full of warmth and friendship. The three of them enjoyed the rare peace and relaxation on this quiet night.

The charm of travel often lies in those unexpected encounters. Meeting all kinds of people is like opening windows to different worlds, and every encounter is full of unknowns and surprises.

On the busy streets of the city, you will meet busy office workers, who are in a hurry, with their faces full of pressure and responsibility in life. In the ancient villages, you may meet leisurely villagers, who sit leisurely under the shade of trees and tell stories passed down by their ancestors.

In remote mountains, you will meet tenacious forest rangers who guard the peace of wild elves with firm and deep eyes. In busy train stations, you will meet travelers with bags on their backs, who embark on a new journey with dreams and expectations.

Meeting these people with different backgrounds and personalities not only enriches one's experience, but also makes one learn to understand and tolerate. In conversation, people can hear different voices, see different worlds, and experience different lives. These encounters make people cherish every trip more and look forward to the next encounter.

After eating and drinking, Fang Ci and Qishu declined Lang Zhuang’s invitation to stay at his house temporarily, and walked into the only hotel in Guxiang Town with their luggage.

At night, the lights in the hotel room were soft and warm. Qi Shu and Fang Ci sat by the window, their faces filled with excitement and anticipation. Outside the window, the lights of the city were dim, but their hearts had already flown to tomorrow's trip.

Although the original purpose of coming to the Shining Cave had been frustrated, they still wanted to come here for nothing, so the two declined the fossils given by Guxiang Town as a thank you gift today, because to them, only the fossils dug out from the Shining Cave with their own hands were more meaningful.

Seeing that the two were so determined to refuse, the people from the Fossil Research Institute had no choice but to give up. However, before leaving, they still promised the two that once they dug up fossils, they would provide them with free resurrection services and a gift package for breeding fossil Pokémon.

Qishu was holding a manual given by the Fossil Research Institute. She casually opened a page, pointed to the fossil picture on it and said to Fang Ci: "Brother, look, there are so many kinds of fossils in the Shining Cave. Guess which one we can dig up tomorrow?" Her eyes were shining with curiosity about the unknown and desire for adventure.

As the Little European Emperor of Padia, Qi Shu never considered the possibility that the two would return empty-handed.

“I don’t know, but no matter what kind of fossil is dug out at that time, it will be the best encounter for me!” Fang Ci said with a smile while lying on the bed with his head resting on his arms.

"Having said that, I still think it would be great if we could dig out the fossils of electric elves." Qi Shu lay down beside Fang Ci, looking at the white ceiling above his head with longing.

"I'm afraid you'll be disappointed if that happens." Hearing this, Fang Ci shook his head.

"Why?" Qi Shu asked puzzledly.

"Because there are no fossils in the Shining Cave that can revive electric-type Pokémon. Right now, the only fossils that can revive electric-type Pokémon are in the Galar region."

"Ah, why is this!"

Upon hearing this, Qishu immediately sat up and carefully looked through the manual in his hand. As expected, there was not a single electric-type Pokémon on it.

Out of curiosity, Qishu searched the Internet for electric fossils in the Galar region. When he saw the pictures on his phone, he couldn't help but burst out laughing.

"Brother, look, the Thunderbird Dragon and Thunderbird Sea Beast look so weird, but why do they look cuter the more I look at them?"

Hearing Qi Shu's laughter, Fang Ci also came over curiously, looking at the pictures of the two Pokémon on his phone. Even though it was not the first time he saw them, he still couldn't help laughing and said, "I remember that the fossils of Galar all looked like this because of the wrong splicing by the resurrectors. However, since the other half of the four fossils have not been found yet, they can only be resurrected in this strange appearance if they want to be resurrected."

"Then brother, do you think there is a possibility that they have always looked like this?" After hearing what Fang Ci said, Qi Shu's scientific research spirit burned fiercely.

"No matter how you look at it, this appearance is too weird. I really can't figure out what kind of wind has pulled out of nature to make the elves evolve into this appearance." Fang Ci did not quite agree with Qi Shu's guess, but after all, he was not a professional and could not really give an answer.

"But no matter what, it's amazing that they can survive in this state after being resurrected!" Looking at the four elves in the picture that look like stitched together monsters or some kind of spoof picture, Qi Shu couldn't help but sigh that Pokémon is such an amazing creature when he thought that they actually exist!

"Although these four guys look strange, their combat power is indeed good, especially the Gnathosaurus and the Thunderbird Dragon, which cannot be underestimated on the battlefield."

"Really? I must see how they fight!" Upon hearing this, Qishu immediately began to search for more information about the four Galar fossils excitedly.

......

While Qi Shu was frantically searching for all kinds of information and memes about Galar's four fossil Pokémon like an addict, the exhausted Fang Ci had already fallen into a deep sleep, intending to greet the arrival of the new day in the most perfect condition.
