Why is my Pokémon acting a little weird?

However, just as the two were still surprised, something strange happened again.

Some strange black smoke began to emerge from the body of the Genesect, and even its shape began to gradually dissipate. At the same time, a ring-shaped object suddenly spread under the body of the Genesect.

——Wait until Qiao Ran and Yi

The next time Ruoyun blinked, the Genesect had disappeared from their sight.

"..."

Yi Ruoyun looked at the scene happening in front of him in a daze.

So...where is the thing?

Were you here just now?

As a native of the real world, Yi Ruoyun had no idea what was happening, nor could she understand the "meaning" of everything that had just happened. This was beyond the scope of her knowledge.

While Qiao Ran was surprised, he clenched his fists tightly.

A bad premonition spread in his heart again.

"Trouble..."

Although he didn't know what had happened to Genesect, the moment he saw the "ring", Qiao Ran knew that this matter was definitely not that simple...

In the world of Pokémon, there is only one Pokémon that has the ability to control circles and master space. The combat capability of this Pokémon alone may not be considered top-notch, but its special ability can be said to be the most difficult one.

The super demon god of the light wheel.

——Hoopa.

Chapter 263 259 [Double Worlds]

The battle on Qiao Ran's side was still going on, while on the other side, Lillie also began her own exploration and adventure.

"Where is...where?"

Lillie looked at the scene that suddenly appeared in front of her, with a hint of surprise in her eyes.

It was clearly just the same natural scenery as anywhere else, but Liliae could sense that there was a clear difference.

Although the sky will be bright, there will be no sun in the sky.

Although there was a breeze blowing on my face, it lacked some warmth.

"…Is this the Pokémon world?"

Lillie looked around and saw grass and rivers, forests and hills, as well as many Pokémon hidden in them. They all seemed to be living quite well here.

"This is the frontier, Lotor."

Rotom floated in the air and explained to Lillie.

"If you want to say it, it is indeed the Pokémon world, right, Loto."

Perhaps because they saw a strange face, Lillie's arrival eventually attracted the attention of the other Pokémon. However, since the most dangerous one had already been sent out by Qiao Ran, the first one to appear was a maid in a maid outfit with blue-purple hair.

"Rotom, why did you bring others in without permission?"

The maid frowned and questioned Rotom's behavior. As the portal's opener, she felt that Rotom shouldn't be doing this.

"...This is the master's mission, Loto. I didn't do this on my own, Loto."

Rotom shook her head frantically and decisively began to shift the blame. She was obviously surprised when she heard Qiao Ran say that he wanted to bring people in!

"Master's mission...?"

The maid pondered for a moment, and finally set her sights on Liliae.

"...Long time no see, Miss Lillie."

"Eh?"

Liliae was a little surprised and at a loss when she saw the other party suddenly call her name.

She didn't know the other party's purpose or identity, but looking at the thing on the other party that looked like... a "ribbon", Lillie always felt that something seemed wrong.

"Um... do you know me?" Lillie asked carefully.

"Of course, we have met many times before." The maid smiled and replied.

"Since this is the master's mission, then I will take you to understand this world."

As soon as she finished speaking, under Lillie's suddenly wide eyes, the maid's body began to glow, and even her appearance - changed.

“You are actually…!”

Lillie swore that this was the first time she had seen such a thing. She had never even imagined a similar scene before.

That human just now was actually a Pokémon transformed...!

--------------------------------

In the real world, in the forest.

Most of the Genesects in the sky had been shot down, but just like the previous situation, those Genesects wrapped in black fog began to emit black smoke after being shot down, and then they were transferred away by the "ring" that suddenly appeared.

"...Hurry up and pack up your things here, we have to rush to Hangzhou!"

Looking at Qiao Ran who was still standing there and seemed to be thinking about something, Yi Ruoyun couldn't help but urge him, the battle was obviously over, what was this guy still thinking about?

"it is good."

Qiao Ran responded, releasing Tanabata Bluebird and retrieving the other Pokémon. Yveltal and the others had other battles ahead of them, so they had to conserve their energy. Furthermore, Qiao Ran didn't want to draw too much attention when entering the city, especially with Yveltal's massive size. It would be impossible not to draw attention.

Although... Qiao Ran glanced at the golden-glowing Qixi Bluebird under him - she seemed to be quite eye-catching.

But Qiao Ran had no choice, his only two

All the flying vehicles are here. After weighing the two options, the Qixi Bluebird is more suitable.

"What were you thinking about just now?"

On the way to Hangzhou, Yi Ruoyun also approached him and asked a question.

She couldn't quite make sense of what had happened before. Thinking about it for a moment would kill a lot of brain cells, so she simply stopped thinking about it. She might as well ask Qiao Ran, who had gone through the same experience as her. Maybe he could offer some insights she hadn't thought of before.

"I'm thinking...how to prevent that thing from disappearing. Or...to get it to stop doing this."

Qiao Ran's eyes flickered.

Just now, he was indeed thinking about other issues.

He has experienced a lot of things like space and time travel, so when faced with such events, he does not panic at first, but has a calm attitude of "this is how it is".

He was thinking about how he could take advantage of the "ring"'s appearance to strike back at the enemy. He already knew that after the Genesects fell, the ring would definitely appear to rescue them.

Use other Pokémon to attack the ring?

No... the ring shouldn't suffer any obvious damage. Instead of wasting time here, I should try another approach.

Generally speaking, a portal, in its essence, is actually a "prop that connects two worlds."

"Linking the two worlds..."

Qiao Ran touched his chin, and his expression gradually became clear.

"What did you think of?" Yi Ruoyun asked with some interest.

"I have a plan, but... it might be a little dangerous. And I don't know the probability of success. If it fails, it will be very troublesome."

Qiao Ran weighed his words with extreme caution. His plan required him to assume a significant personal risk, a risk he'd taken on more than once before, and he was comfortable with it. But most importantly, he had no idea what the payoff would be, nor did he know if his actions were playing into the other party's hands.

"...If I have made a decision by then, I hope Sister Yi Ruoyun can help me."

"......?" Yi Ruoyun didn't understand why Qiao Ran suddenly became so serious, but nodded: "Sure, if you can convince me."

"Ah."

Qiao Ran responded, and at this moment, he once again felt that his strength was insufficient.

Although Yi Ruoyun had been emphasizing his great improvement in strength after meeting him, Qiao Ran wanted more than just that.

What he has to do is not just challenging the gym and the alliance.

Chapter 264 260 [Before the Battle]

Approaching Hangzhou from the sky, especially when the Pokémon on both sides flew at full speed regardless of physical exhaustion, Qiao Ran and Yi Ruoyun arrived at the outskirts of the city in no time.

"Damn...what the hell is going on here?"

Along the way, Yi Ruoyun had seen many scenes that he had never seen before, including collapsed houses, broken streets, and busy rescue workers. Moreover, as he went deeper into the city, he saw more and more similar scenes.

Although she also saw many Pokémon trainers helping out, but... facing an enemy of this level, the role that ordinary trainers can play is bound to be limited.

According to Yi Ruoyun's observation, they must have at least the strength of an ordinary gym leader to be able to help, otherwise they will become a burden in the battle.

Yi Ruoyun couldn't contain his anxiety, so he took out his cell phone and called the alliance contact person to find out the specific situation.

She originally thought that the situation in the city would be worse than she imagined, but the other party's answer was a little beyond her expectations.

"...Really? Because they were discovered and evacuated early, there were basically no casualties? ...Wait, you said those things were only attacking buildings?"

She once again heard surprising information from the contact person, but when she thought about it, she felt that something seemed wrong.

"That's not right. I also encountered these strange creatures when I was outside Hangzhou before. They attacked us."

Yi Ruoyun glanced at Qiao Ran with a puzzled expression.

Qiao Ran also heard her voice. Although he didn't hear clearly what the liaison officer on the other end said, judging from Yi Ruoyun's words, he could probably tell about it.

Qiao Ran couldn't help but frown.

Those things...don't attack people? How is that possible?

So when they first appeared there, wouldn't their first attack be...

Qiao Ran's whole body trembled, and Lillie's face appeared in his mind - yes, it was Lillie they attacked at that time.

Is Lillie special, or is the Alliance's intelligence wrong?

If Lillie is special... then doesn't that mean there's someone else who's also...

Thinking of this, Qiao Ran couldn't help but take out his cell phone and quickly dialed a specially marked number.

"...? Qiao Ran?"

Perhaps it was expected, the other party answered the phone quickly

, Qiao Ran also asked about the other party's situation quickly.

"Mei, is there anything going on over there?"

"...I'm fine here, but you... Qiao Ran, you should be in the danger zone designated by the alliance... right? What happened over there?"

It was not known whether it was because of the damage caused by Genesect or because Qiao Ran was moving at high speed in the sky, but the sounds he heard were always intermittent. However, Mei's voice still made him feel a little relieved that nothing strange happened on her side.

Moreover, Mei seemed to have known some of the situations here. After all, her superior was a doctor in the alliance and had a certain relationship with the "oldest superstar". Qiao Ran was not surprised that she knew some things.

"I'm glad you're okay." Qiao Ran replied.

But on second thought, Qiao Ran felt his worries were unnecessary. Although Mei's strength couldn't be called a true "king," she was still top-tier. Furthermore, she hadn't slacked off on her Pokémon training, and her strength was constantly growing. With her like this, no matter what problems she encountered, she would at least have the power to protect herself.

"...I saw Genesects, lots of them, shrouded in black mist... Also, I saw Hoopa's ring. I guess these things were sent here by Hoopa."

"What did you say……!?"

Qiao Ran and Meiyi briefly recounted what they had just seen. After listening quietly to Qiao Ran's description, Meiyi finally couldn't help but exclaim in surprise.

"It's actually...wait, Genesect..."

Even though they were thousands of miles apart and the phone was making a strong rustling sound, Qiao Ran could still feel her extremely excited emotions.

It wasn't that feeling of excitement, but rather... deep worry and fear.

Mei seems to be afraid of something.

"That shouldn't be... something from this world... Qiao Ran, where are you!... I have to go there quickly too!"

Mei asked about Qiao Ran's location, and Qiao Ran also understood what Genesect represented to Mei, or it should be said that these things might be related to the disaster that Mei had mentioned before, which had happened in the Unova region.

After all, in the Pokémon world, the only organization to have resurrected and transformed Genesect was the Plasma Group in Unova. Furthermore, items related to this Pokémon had also been discovered in the ruins.

Also, in Mei's vague memory, she also mentioned the so-called "black thing".

"I'm in Hangzhou... I'm on my way in, but the situation is urgent. I don't know if it's too late for you to come over now."

Qiao Ran actually hoped that she could come over quickly, but the situation did not wait for anyone. If it really came to the point where there was no way to solve the problem without taking action, Qiao Ran would have to take further measures.
