People in the Elf: God rewards hard work and I become stronger at the speed of light Chapter 198

clap!

Bai Ze backhanded and grabbed Zeraora’s claw that was frozen in mid-air. His eyes were firm, and the meaning conveyed was very clear: I will not give up on you!

“Ao la……”

“Zeraora, listen to me first!”

Two pairs of similar azure blue pupils met. After a long while, Zeraora nodded, sensing the seriousness in Bai Ze’s eyes.

Bai Ze breathed a sigh of relief. It was good that it didn’t make the decision to leave.

His brain was working rapidly.

After some deliberation.

After drafting his thoughts, he said in a deep voice, “Zeraora, have you ever thought about why Fula City, being remote and located on a distant land, still frequently has poachers visiting?”

Zeraora shook its head upon hearing this. It indeed didn’t know.

“It’s because of you!”

Bai Ze didn’t keep him in suspense too much, but stated directly, “Your existence, the news of unknown rare Pokémon, is the root cause of this mountain forest being frequently visited by various poachers and trainers!”

“Ao la……”

Zeraora’s pupils suddenly constricted, somewhat unwilling to believe such an answer.

Because if it was truly like that.

It would be tantamount to denying its decades of guarding the mountain forest… In the end, the root of everything was because of itself. So, what did its guardianship count for?

But Bai Ze’s eyes didn’t seem to be lying.

Moreover.

Recalling past experiences, and the poacher encountered before,

Zeraora suddenly realized that most people indeed came to Fula City from thousands of miles away, deep into this mountain forest, with the goal of finding unknown rare Pokémon…

And in fact, although Bai Ze had the idea of using strong medicine.

It was not to deliberately fabricate such a reason to take Zeraora away.

Fula City is remote. Although it looks lush with trees, the variety and quantity of Pokémon living in the mountain forest are actually not very rich.

Most are Pokémon that have migrated unexpectedly or been driven away and abandoned for various reasons.

After all, if it weren’t for the благословенный wind brought by Lugia.

A hundred years ago, Fula City was nothing but a barren land…

What’s more.

Johto’s largest hunting preserve—the Safari Zone—is located directly north of this land island.

The main Pokémon populations have basically been migrated to this truly materially abundant place, and the mountain forests in the Fula City area, in the end, still lack a lot of heritage.

But even so, because of Lugia, a top-tier legendary Pokémon, Fula City holds an extremely special status in the Johto League.

The Pokémon world is self-governing cities.

Generally speaking, the Pokémon League does not interfere in the internal affairs of local cities.

However.

To ensure the safety of Fula City, the League not only set up an emergency affairs office on the outskirts of the city but also dispatched a main special operations team to be on standby at all times.

What kind of configuration is a main special operations team?

Just look at the configuration of the Fire Falcon Special Operations Team that supported Saffron City… A Captain of Elite Four level, around sixty team members, all squad leaders are battle-hardened quasi-Elite Four, and no team member is below Gym Leader level!

League’s direct combat force!

This is not just talk.

It is entirely forged in blood and fire!

Although the special operations team generally does not easily enter the city to perform tasks without a special order from the Fula City Mayor or the League’s direct order.

But this deterrent.

It is enough to scare away most poachers… With such a configuration, who knows if they will suddenly break a taboo and thus provoke the special operations team’s pursuit?

These direct violent organs of the League are not as gentle as Officer Jenny, who only reprimands and detains.

Once targeted.

Their lives are basically in danger.

If they don’t die, they’ll at least lose a layer of skin!

Therefore, if it weren’t for Zeraora, this mysterious unknown Pokémon, attracting many trainers or desperate individuals, who would choose to come to the mountains of Fula City to look for a needle in a haystack?

……

……

‘Is everything because of me……’

Zeraora stared blankly ahead, its eyes unfocused. A bitter and unclear taste suddenly welled up in its heart.

At this moment, its heart was filled with confusion, and for a moment, it didn’t know what to do.

And just then.

Bai Ze’s voice suddenly came.

“The root cause is certainly not because of you, but human greed!”

He tightened his grip on Zeraora’s hand, meeting Zeraora’s eyes that seemed to see a glimmer of hope, and said solemnly, “Zeraora, without you, that great fire back then would have taken more lives, and the forest would not have been peaceful for so long.”

“Zeraora, the existence of life has no right or wrong, but the path you have walked has always been correct!”

“Decades ago, Fula City did not have enough protective power. It was your existence that guarded the tranquility of this mountain forest.”

“And now, Fula City is strong enough.”

“Although the exposure of your identity has aroused people’s greed and covetousness, at the same time, isn’t this also the time to break the shackles between you and this mountain forest?”

“Zeraora, it’s time to let go. Come with me onto the world stage and announce your debut to the world!”

“And I……”

Bai Ze pulled Zeraora up from the ground, released its hand, and solemnly extended it again: “I will bear your name, and all the greed and covetousness, in the spotlight of all!”

“Zeraora, my name is Bai Ze, and my dream is to become the strongest in the world!”

“Are you willing to walk with me?”

Zeraora stared blankly at the young man in front of it. Suddenly, a slight smile appeared on its handsome feline face.

This time.

It no longer hesitated, gently placing its claw into Bai Ze’s palm.

“Ao la~”

From now on, please take care of me… Bai Ze!

One person and one cat,

Immediately smiled at each other.
