Chapter 446 [Legend]

"Huh, it's finally not Nancy..."

After hearing Zhulan's words, Qiao Ran's first thought was a flash of relief. If there was anyone who was the most difficult to deal with here, it must be Nazhi, who was both alert and had superpowers. However - when Qiao Ran just had a flash of relief in his mind, he seemed to have discovered that something was wrong.

"Wait, this time I drew..."

The corner of Qiao Ran's mouth twitched slightly.

"It seems to be me."

Zhulan, who was not far away, shook the note in her hand again with a faint smile on her face, as calmly as if she was stating a fact.

Bamboo...orchid...?

The one who drew the note turned out to be Zhulan? ?

Qiao Ran: “…”

What...what's going on?

We have Lillie, Mei, and Mitsuki on our side, but why are only people other than these three getting the lottery?

Has this probability been secretly modified? It must have been secretly modified, right?

However, looking at Zhulan's gentle smile, Qiao Ran was not as nervous as before. At least... it would be much better than Nazhi?

If it's an older sister like Zhulan, there shouldn't be any big problems, right?

"Since the result has been determined, let's arrange it this way for tonight."

Nancy was silent for a moment, then looked at Zhulan and added something.

"Zhulan, tonight is the last day. You don't have to squeeze in like this tomorrow. If you don't want to, I can take you to rent a room outside..."

"Don't bother with that, I can handle special circumstances.

Got it. "

Zhulan waved her hand, indicating that Nazhi didn't need to worry too much. She was not a delicate young lady and had more experience of camping in the wild than anyone else present.

In order to excavate the ruins, she has slept in all kinds of strange places. After so many years, this ability has long been honed.

"Everyone, just have a good rest today."

Zhulan smiled gently.

————————————————————————————————————

"Finally it's my turn."

Since there were so many people, arranging the time for bathing every night was also a big problem. As for Qiao Ran... as the only boy, he was naturally arranged to be the last one in the group.

When he finally finished his shower and returned to his room to rest, he found Zhulan already sitting on the edge of the bed in a black nightgown, holding a book he had never seen before.

Her slightly curly golden long hair covered half of her face, exuding a fresh fragrance. Her eyes and eyebrows were full of maturity and intelligence, attracting Qiao Ran's attention.

Even he had to admit that Zhulan was really beautiful.

Whether it is appearance, figure, or this unique temperament.

Even compared with Nazi, this champion is probably not at a disadvantage, but unfortunately, she is not interested in these things. She likes something completely different.

"Do you always read before going to bed?"

Qiao Ran couldn't help but ask. Ever since he met the champion of the Sinnoh region, he seemed to have never seen her have any time to slack off and have fun. Usually, apart from reading and studying, she also trained Pokémon. She had no free time at any moment.

Even now - when others may be lying on the bed resting and playing with their mobile phones, she is studying.

"...Maybe I'm used to it."

When Zhulan found out that Qiao Ran had come back from taking a shower, she withdrew her gaze from the book and looked at Qiao Ran.

"Cattleya has said that about me, but I think reading is quite interesting. There are many things in this world that are different from the Pokémon world. If my grandma were here, she would probably be very happy too."

"Although the two worlds are very different, the feeling of liking Pokémon is the same."

"Just like Arceus was once betrayed by humans, but others still stepped forward and saved the day. The love for Pokémon can always overcome everything."

When talking about these things, Zhulan suddenly became more talkative, and Qiao Ran seemed to have discovered that she really liked Pokémon. Basically, she would mention these things every few words.

"I know. That incident started because a human didn't return Arceus's Life Jewel. But in the end, it was discovered that this person was actually being manipulated by other villains, so he betrayed Arceus."

Hearing Zhulan mention this, Qiao Ran couldn't help but say a little more. Before he met these Pokémon, he also liked to talk about these things, but since coming here, he didn't have such an opportunity.

"...Yes, and the person being controlled is the ancestor of the 'Super Power' in the Sinnoh region." After listening to Qiao Ran's description, Zhu Lan nodded blankly and added.

But after a while, she slowly reacted and realized that something was wrong: "Wait, how do you know this?"

Records of mythology do exist in some ancient books in the Sinnoh region, but most of those records are very obscure and difficult to understand, and they are far from being as concise and clear as what Qiao Ran said.

It sounds like an overview of a movie or TV series.

However, what he said was generally sound, and it was consistent with the conclusions reached by most Sinnoh mythology scholars in the recent past. It's just that... summarizing such a long history in a few sentences requires more than just a little understanding.

He knows so much about the legends of the Sinnoh region?

"Maybe... I'm just lucky, so I learned some similar things."

Qiao Ran didn't explain much, just scratched his head.

"Don't look at me like this, I actually know a lot about Pokémon."

"learn?"

Seeing Qiao Ran like this, Zhu Lan also raised her eyebrows and her expression gradually became strange.

She picked up the book in her hand, then clipped the pages with a bookmark, and finally put the book on the cabinet beside the bed.

"Then I'll test you next."

Qiao Ran was indeed a little beyond her expectations, but after hearing what he said, Zhu Lan had the idea of ​​giving him a try.

How much does he know about the myths and legends of the Pokémon world?

Zhulan leaned to the side and moved closer to Qiao Ran.

"Hoopa, the legendary Pokémon of the Kalos region. Do you know any legends about this Pokémon?"

Chapter 447 [Origin of Life]

Asking this question suddenly occurred to Zhulan. However, this broad question does have a high degree of freedom. In the Pokémon world, most ordinary people only know about the legends of their own region, and most of the time they only know about the legends of other regions. In addition, in the process of hearsay, there will inevitably be errors and omissions, which are understandable.

However, for some more professional people, just these two words are enough to write an entire paper on the spot.

So, Zhulan wanted to hear Qiao Ran’s answer to this. To what extent did he know about these things?

"Hupa?"

Qiao Ran blinked, and his expression gradually became strange.

A wave of thoughts gradually flooded his mind. In addition to various information about Hoopa, his impression of Hoopa was still stuck on the crisis that had occurred before.

That Hoopa surrounded by black energy... almost wiped them out in the Unova region.

"Do you want something theoretical or casual?"

"This... is there such a difference?" Zhu Lan exclaimed, completely unaware of what Qiao Ran meant.

"Then... a little bit of theory?"

"Alright."

Qiao Ran nodded and cleared his throat.

"Hoopa, in its Punishment form... or normal form, it's a dual-attribute Pokémon with Psychic and Ghost attributes. In its Unleashed form, it's a dual-attribute Pokémon with Psychic and Dark attributes. This Pokémon has very high attack and special defense, but its weaknesses are physical defense and speed. So, to deal with Hoopa in its Unleashed form, it's best to use Bug-type physical skills with quadruple resistance or Fairy-type skills with double resistance..."

"Wait wait ...

Listening to Qiao Ran's talk, Zhu Lan felt more and more that something was wrong. How did this guy know so much about Hoopa's attributes and weaknesses? And... this is not what I want to hear!

"I'm talking about the legend! Not how to fight Hoopa! What the hell are you talking about?"

Zhu Lan couldn't help but give Qiao Ran a cold look, and subconsciously pushed Qiao Ran's chest with her hand. Is this guy pretending to be stupid?

"This……"

Qiao Ran, who was speaking happily, was suddenly interrupted. Seeing Zhu Lan's expression, he could only stop his long speech with a helpless smile.

Although he received a cold stare from Zhulan, Qiao Ran found her rather cute when he saw her rare look.

...Perhaps, she would only show this expression when talking about these things.

She was completely different when fighting.

"...The legend of Hoopa is actually related to Arceus in the Sinnoh region."

"Arzeus..."

Qiao Ran's first words caught Zhu Lan's attention.

He was not wrong, in fact, he pointed out the most important point very directly.

"Long ago, a gigantic, evil Pokémon capable of traveling across space existed in the Kalos region. However, no one at the time could do anything about it, leaving it to wreak its evil. It wasn't until a hundred years ago, when this Pokémon's battle nearly destroyed a city called 'Desert City', that a traveler crafted a tool to seal this Pokémon away."

"And this item was made with the help of Arceus' power."

"Arceus's power? Are you sure of that?"
