Elf: As a champion, I just want to teach and educate people

Chapter 145: Longmu Town and "Personality"

At dawn, the town of Longmu quietly waited for the arrival of a new day in the dim light of dawn.

As early as one corner of the day, Li Yunyi and N had quietly embarked on a journey towards the unknown. The dawn of half past six illuminated their figures and guided them forward.

Zekrom had already prepared for the trip, and with the help of the power of thunder, they were able to arrive at the picturesque town of Kagome in advance. This small town guards the customs of the past, and every corner is filled with the atmosphere of a life that abides by the rules.

Li Yunyi jumped down from Zekrom's back. He brushed off the dust on his body and whispered to himself, "We are finally here, Longmu Town. The final adjustment point before heading to the Giant Cave."

"Yun Yi, remember, be prepared for everything."

N took out the Poké Ball for the first time and put Zekrom in it. He said helplessly, "Zekrom is too big. If he descends directly into the Giant Cave, it might cause some unnecessary trouble."

Of course, this is not a more detailed explanation by N. Li Yunyi knows the reason very well.

Quichis has always been cunning and he is very likely to launch a sneak attack during other people's normal Pokémon battles.

N's consideration is also for their safety.

They had thought that if they descended directly into the Giant Cave, there was a high probability that Quichis would suddenly attack and severely injure them.

Landing in Longme Town was not only to replenish supplies, but also to prevent them from falling into danger and suffering unnecessary harm.

Together with N's body, there were only two Pokémon left to accompany him.

Among them, in addition to Zekrom, there is also a Zoroark. Its strength has reached the champion level and is a rare fighting force.

Most of the residents of Longmu Town are elderly people and children. Their pace of life is different from that of the outside world, as if they are treated gently by time.

Just when Li Yunyi and N arrived, the residents of the town were slowly waking up and starting a new day.

On the street, there was a childish boy who looked at an old lady with expectant eyes. He pulled the corner of the old lady's clothes and said in a coquettish tone: "Grandma, I want to go out and play in the evening..."

The wrinkles on the old woman's face were full of kindness. She gently stroked the child's hair and said softly, "My dear grandson, no."

Such conversations are repeated every day in the town.

Residents who are a little older know that there is an unfathomable story behind this.

A long time ago, a meteorite broke through the sky from the distant space and fell on this land, bringing with it a ferocious and terrifying beast.

Rumor has it that this giant beast awakens every night, accompanied by cold winds, sneaks into towns, preys on people and Pokémon, and devours all life.

In order to protect themselves and their families, the residents of the town had to build high walls to tightly surround the entire town of Longmu, and even formulated strict curfew regulations, prohibiting people from going out at night and encouraging everyone to stay at home to avoid unnecessary disasters.

This story has been told countless times by the elders in the town, and every time they mention it, they are filled with awe and fear. And the children grew up listening to this story in the arms of the elders.

Li Yunyi strolled along the streets of Longmu Town, the morning sun shining on his tall figure. He zipped up his backpack and checked the various props in it to make sure everything was ready.

"Well... I don't have many props on me, and I need some medicine that can quickly restore my strength in a critical moment." Li Yunyi integrated into the atmosphere of this quiet town, and he was thinking about the various possibilities in the battle.

He found a bottle of clear and transparent medicine in his backpack. The bottle contained a mysterious potion that could restore an injured body in a short time.

In addition, although the resurrection grass did not pile up into a small hill, even if it was carefully and evenly distributed, the amount was still astonishingly large.

The precious value of each herb cannot be ignored, which is enough to show that Ju Lao has a strong financial foundation.

Just kidding, Fanba City is my hometown, the thing they have the most is resurrection grass.

N's sight was still wandering around Longmu Town, looking for any possible hidden dangers. When Li Yunyi mentioned the need for medicine, his eyes happened to fall on an ancient pharmacy.

It was a small shop hidden in a narrow alley with a weathered sign hanging on the door.

"Then let's go to the store and buy some. We have half an hour to leave and try to reach the Giant Cave before eight o'clock."

"Okay." Li Yunyi agreed.

The two did not say anything more, as the long journey had already made them understand each other's minds.

When you step into the pharmacy, you will find that the furnishings inside are simple. The shelves are filled with various herbs and bottled medicines, giving off a faint medicinal aroma.

Without any hesitation, they went straight to the point and picked out a few bottles of the most critical medicines.

Li Yunyi's fingers gently slid across the medicine bottles, feeling the years of accumulation contained in these medicine bottles. He couldn't help but look at this pharmacy with some history with a new eye.

“I have to say, this century-old store has a really wide variety of medicines.”

Li Yunyi sighed softly. He didn't expect to see some rare medicines in this ancient pharmacy, such as "offensive pills", "defensive pills" and "multiple reinforcements".

These medicines have a long history behind them, which can be traced back to the Xicui period, which is fascinating.

Of course, Li Yunyi also knew in his heart that although these medicines could bring short-term beneficial effects, their effects were too strong.

Frequent consumption may cause irreversible damage to the Pokémon's body, which is an implicit risk.

Even when he had just become a trainer, he was cautious in choosing medicines and did not act rashly.

After choosing the necessary medicines, the two left the pharmacy on foot without lingering and headed towards the Giant Cave.

Their actions also attracted the attention of the surrounding residents.

The old woman who was comforting her grandson saw that Li Yunyi and N were heading in a different direction from the previous people, and the place in that direction was really unforgettable for the residents of Longmu Town.

She trembled in her voice and finally couldn't help asking, "Young man, are you going to the Giant Cave?" Li Yunyi heard the old woman's voice, slowly turned around, and noticed the panic and uneasiness in the old woman's eyes. He pursed his lips, smiled slightly, shook his head gently and said, "Don't worry, we will be back soon, and we won't let any danger threaten this place."

Seeing the two young men still moving forward, the old woman became anxious. She once again brought up the old story, trying to make them give up: "There is a giant beast there... It is a ferocious monster that will devour you! It will trap you in the ice and snow, and you will never be able to escape!"

Li Yunyi did not continue to entangle with the old woman. He and N disappeared into the depths of the forest in the northwest, leaving behind only a quiet town and the old woman's restless figure.

The sun was shining and the sky was clear blue, but the old woman felt as if she was sitting on pins and needles. She looked in the direction where Li Yunyi and N left, wanting to say something, but in the end it turned into sighs.

The old woman slowly stood up, put her hands together, and prayed silently. Seeing this, other residents followed her example and put their hands together to express their wishes.

They watched Li Yunyi and N leave. Under the shade of nature, they whispered to themselves:
"May all the dragon gods of the United Army bless you and see you return safely."

Li Yunyi and N's journey was not as smooth as they had imagined.

This forest may appear lush and green on the outside, but once you go deep into it, you will truly appreciate how complex and dangerous it is.

The ground is bumpy and covered with holes of varying sizes. These irregular terrains cause great trouble to human movements.

Every step must be taken carefully to avoid falling into the bottomless quagmire or being swallowed by hidden pits. In this case, you must always be vigilant to avoid getting lost in this dangerous forest.

"The disaster brought by the meteorite is far more serious than I imagined..."

Li Yunyi frowned and scanned the ground full of holes. It really brought them unnecessary trouble, and they couldn't even move freely as before.

However, this was nothing to N. He shuttled between the holes, almost every time he stepped accurately. After a jump, he turned around and asked, "Do you need me to call the nearby Pokémon? There should be some Pokémon nearby that meet the requirements."

Hearing this, Li Yunyi finally stopped and relaxed his tired body to take a short rest. He couldn't help but sighed: "Damn, if you have this ability, why didn't you say so earlier? Shout quickly!"

If it weren't for the powerful auras that Blaziken and Dragonball exuded when they appeared, he would have let them take him directly to the entrance of the Giant Cave.

Their champion-level strength meant that no matter how hard they tried to hold their breath, they could not completely suppress their aura, and they could not let Kuiqisi detect their presence because of their desire for speed.

"A difficult one, P Plus support."

N closed his eyes tightly, concentrating his mind, and his low voice echoed in the forest.

Soon, two deer Pokémon appeared in front of them, their bodies mainly made of dark brown, and their antlers were white and new, and slightly curved.

The part below the deer's eyes is all white, and the hair on its neck is like a gorgeous scarf, contrasting with its brown skin.

There are small white spots scattered on its body, and its legs are covered with hair, a bit like wearing boots.

Li Yunyi looked at the two Pokémon in front of him with great interest. He did not expect N to call the two Pokémon over: "Bud Deer? It's really good."

The two budding deer were well-developed and tall. Compared to the official 1.9 meters given by the Alliance, these two deer were much taller than the official value, reaching over two meters, making them the ideal choice to carry them to the Giant Cave.

The budding deer walked gracefully to Li Yunyi and N, and gestured with gentle eyes to the two to sit on their broad and solid backs.

Time is running out, tasks are waiting, and they cannot slack off in the slightest.

Li Yunyi jumped up without hesitation and sat steadily on the back of the Sprout Deer. N was familiar with the process. Judging from his skillful movements, he must have sat on the backs of other Pokémon many times.

The unique environment of the forest is nothing to them. As Pokémon who have lived in this forest since childhood, they are very familiar with this land.

Under the leadership of the budding deer, the originally rugged road became smooth, and the potholes and obstacles became invisible under their feet.

They have agile postures and light steps, and they move silently through the woods, leaving only traces of the breeze and the swaying shadows of the trees.

Soon, the two sprout deer safely brought Li Yunyi and N to the entrance of the giant cave.

Although they had not yet set foot into the depths of the cave, Li Yunyi could already feel a chill that made him shudder.

This chill also made Li Yunyi frown, feeling that things were not simple: "This shouldn't be the case. The Giant Cave is clearly divided into three parts. Where does this outermost cold air come from..."

He looked around, trying to find the source of the cold air, but found nothing unusual.

"Could this be the work of Kyurem?" N pondered in his heart. He was familiar with the rumors about Kyurem. He knew that he was good at controlling the power of ice and could freeze everything in the world.

The coldness of the surrounding environment at the moment made him shudder, which coincided with Kyurem's ability.

If other people were here, they might quickly connect the ice outside with Kyurem.

However, Li Yunyi had a subtle feeling about this.

Because Kyurem usually lives deep in the Giant Cave and rarely has the opportunity to come to the outer edge. If he really reaches the outer edge, the forest around the cave would probably have been covered with frost long ago.

All these signs seem more like the result of human manipulation.

"Let's go, I'll go in and find out what's going on." Li Yunyi didn't want to waste time here and wait for death. He straightened his back, took a deep breath, and stepped into the cave shrouded in a mysterious atmosphere.

As he stepped into the cave, a chill surged over him like a tide, spreading throughout his body in an instant. The air around him seemed to have solidified, so cold that he could hardly breathe.

N followed Li Yunyi's footsteps closely, and the coldness hit him in the face, forcing him to hug his body in an attempt to resist the cold.

"It's really cold..." N whispered to himself. The cold air here pricked his skin like needles, making him shiver.

Li Yunyi was silent and took out a piece of Fire Crystal from his pocket. This red crystal contained the power of fire, and it continuously emitted warm heat, just like a small sun, bringing a moment of comfort to the surrounding environment.

This seemingly simple action allowed Li Yunyi to make his own judgment: "It seems that the person here is not as powerful as the one in Taijingkuai. The possibility of Kyurem can be ruled out."
