Master Craftsman of the Elven World

Chapter 210 Time Never Stops
"Ah, you really have seen through my thoughts, you are worthy of being Arceus."

Wang Luo chuckled. "I thought I would have to go through some extra tests or something. Is it that simple to send me away?"

Under Arceus's thoughtful gaze, Wang Luo was a little confused.

[It seems that someone is trying to keep you. ]

Zhulan spoke at this moment.

"Mr. Wang Luo, although Shenhe and Xicui have disappeared, the current Sinnoh is also very good! If you have nowhere to go, you can come to Shenhe Town."

"That's my hometown, where the history and ancient lifestyle of the Sinnoh region are fully preserved."

Zhulan extended an invitation to Wang Luo: "People who miss the past gather there. People like me who have inherited the blood of the ancient Shen'ao people also live in that city. Although the city was originally quite rural, it has developed quite well now."

"Ah, it's because that city has developed that I don't want to go there." Wang Luo scratched his head, closed his eyes and sighed: "It used to be a hermitage in ancient times."

"There's someone I don't want to see who may still be living in this town. Although I wouldn't feel embarrassed if I went to see her now, after all, I have at least fulfilled my dream."

"If you meet a woman named 'Wusi', please tell her a message for me. Tell her that I will be leaving soon and ask her not to mind me. I will not cause her any more trouble. Ah, she looks similar to you, but her hair is silver and she wears black mourning clothes. How should I put it? She looks like a Galar noblewoman, although I have never been to Galar."

"Humph, but Arceus now has a new messenger, and that woman may have already left this world. Thanks to you, I now know what she meant by the mission and 'the original appearance of the world'!"

Wang Luo looked at Guang Tai and commented: "You messengers of God always like to stay in remote areas where ordinary people can't find you! Maybe in the future, Shendu will become a place like Shenhe Town, with tall buildings and become modern."

"I think so." Zhu Lan nodded slightly: "I'll remember it. If I meet her, I will help you tell her."

"A long time ago." Guangtai looked at the two people: "The ancient hermitage was the city of the Gods. The city collapsed and destroyed after the sun disappeared. The Gods who lost their homeland fled far away, leaving only the Pokémon still living here."

"In the distant past, there was a town called Shenhe. Some time later, the residents dispersed, and the name of Shenhe was no longer mentioned."

"After an unknown amount of time, a group of people who worshipped the Great Lord Sinnoh crossed the sea and arrived here."

"They are divided into two factions, worshipping different Sinnoh great masters."

“From this comes opposition, from this comes conflict.”

"To show their legitimacy, both factions claim to be the people of the divine gate."

"Shen He's name has reappeared in the world, but the ancients' heart is no longer there."

"That's right. Even if I return to Shenhe, it's no longer a place I'm familiar with." Wang Luo rejected Zhulan's invitation:
"Shenhe will also move forward into the future, inheriting Shenhe's name and history, but the lost ancient heart cannot be found. Don't call me rigid, because I am a very nostalgic person."

"Time never stops, the past, the future, and the present"

This is the inscription on the god and the mural.

"So, there's no need to chase after the people of the past. I also have my own future to look for."

"Of course, I don't miss the people of Shenhe. The stories from thousands of years ago are very far away from me. If we want to talk about cultural identity, the people of Shenhe are already scattered all over the world, and their descendants exist in every region!"

Guang Moss: "It's just like what's described in the ancient legends. In the beginning, the people of Sinnoh gathered together to build a city for survival. When they encountered a disaster, they were displaced in order to continue their civilization. In the end, they came back again, revived the land of Sinnoh, and then went out again with their own ideals."

Zhulan sighed helplessly, but the corners of her mouth curled up slightly in a relieved smile.

"Actually, you're afraid that I'll create another Sinnoh crisis, right?" Wang Luo directly pointed out Zhulan's thoughts: "It seems that you have listened to my words carefully. Do you feel embarrassed not to expose them directly?"

"Well, the disaster that Sinnoh has to face now is not me. You should deal with the Ginga Group. I will explain its history to you briefly."

"Well, to put it simply, it doesn't matter!"

Wang Luo waved his hand casually, as if to shoo away some non-existent ghost:
"When the people of the Divine He returned to Xicui from all over the world, they also brought a lot of outsiders to settle down. Apart from the 'two groups of people of the Divine He' that Guangtai guy just mentioned, the third large-scale group of people entering Xicui is this group of outsiders. They are the 'Galaxy Team'!"

"It seems that because of a disaster in their hometown, they ran over from all over the world and found the undeveloped land of Xicui to survive. At first, they were hostile and wary of Pokémon. In short, they are a group of pioneers who are good at investigation and research, and have nothing to do with aerospace."

"The Galaxy team was named after the fact that the abilities of the members of the investigation team were as brilliant as the stars in the sky. At that time, they proudly said that they wanted to pass on the name and achievements of the Galaxy team to future generations. However, the future generations now... Tsk tsk."

"By the way, I heard that you used to be a Pokémon assistant. What's the name of the Pokémon professor in the Sinnoh region? Professor Yamanashi. He used to be in the Kanto region, right? His ancestor was the founder of Team Galactic!"

"Huh?!" Zhulan was shocked!
"I've never heard of such a thing!"

Wang Luo chuckled, "That's probably because one of that grandfather's ancestors hid the history of Team Ginga. After all, many years have passed. His ancestor had a bad personality. It's normal for him to feel ashamed and not pass down the stories of the past. Oh, it's amazing that the descendant of the former leader of Team Ginga went to study the Pokémon Encyclopedia. You know, that guy hated Pokémon very much."

"On the other hand, the outcome is completely the opposite. The descendants of those who passed on the merits have turned Team Galaxy into what it is today. Not to mention their weird ideals and reasons for their activities, I cannot praise their weird aesthetics!"

Zhulan: "Yes, that's right. Watermelon heads are really weird, right?"

Wang Luo: "Yeah, yeah, it's really ugly. And why would their boss want to dye the team members' hair green?"

In criticizing the earthy aesthetics of the Galaxy team, Wang Luo and Zhulan, the grandparents and grandchildren, have a strong common language and desire to complain, and Zhulan suddenly reacts:
"Wait! Mr. Wang Luo, do you know who the current leader of the Galaxy Group is?!"

At this point in time, their leader, Red Sun, is still a great philanthropist and businessman who apparently has a shallow relationship with Team Galactic. Although the top leaders of the Sinnoh Alliance have already investigated and found that Team Galactic and the Galactic Foundation have close ties, they are unable to identify Red Sun because there is no evidence.

Moreover, in some public occasions, Chi Ri once seriously criticized the behavior of the Galaxy Group. On the surface, it seemed to be a just cut, and even a little... This guy actually laughed in public.

"You probably have some guesses in your mind, but I won't say anything without evidence!"

Wang Luo raised his finger and made a hushing gesture for silence, and his smiling expression made Zhulan quite helpless.

"You are the Sinnoh Champion, right? Use your power to investigate. This matter won't cause too much trouble. After all, there is a messenger here, and Giratina will also help you."

"However, we must always remain vigilant. Oh my, these villain organizations are very cunning nowadays, and all kinds of high-tech means emerge one after another. I am really surprised by what I see."

"Ahem." Guang Moss reminded: "Arzeus."

[It doesn't matter. Those who master history have the obligation to pass on past history to future generations. The story of the world will continue forever, and history will never be interrupted. As a place of relics, the only valuable thing here is this lost history.] Arceus didn't care about Wang Luo's chattering. After all, the world will experience many bad things in the future.

In other worlds that are similar to this world, these "ambitious people" have always existed. Even their names have not changed. At most, their motives are different. This is also an established part of historical development.

"I was actually planning on just walking away from here but suddenly, I had some new ideas."

"It's the same question again. Do I not need to go through any tests?"

[That was your own choice. Do you still need to ask God for the way forward? ]

"Yes. In that case, I decided to travel. I want to temporarily save this option of leaving the world. I didn't say I want to leave now!"

Wang Luo turned his head, his gaze seemed to penetrate the Temple of Origin and the ruins of the Divine Capital.

"As a businessman, I need to identify rare things, objects and people. There are still many rare things in this world that I have not seen."

"As for Mitina, from what Guangtai and you said, it seems that the real cause of the disaster in this world is related to them, but I am not very interested. After all, what does that have to do with me? It is you I want to investigate. You were the one I was looking for back then."

"I'm going to travel to other areas first. As for after my trip..." Wang Luo closed his eyes and pondered, and suddenly showed his classic cold and evil smile:

"The most beautiful world does exist, so before going to that world, why not go to a worse world first?"

"Hey! The world that Guang Moss talked about before, the world that made you so angry and almost destroyed the entire human society, does exist in reality, right?"

[You want to be a traveler of the worlds? Yes, that world exists. The me of that world was betrayed by humans a long time ago, but even so, it still has hope for the humans of that world. Anger is just an appearance, but if the right hero does not appear, it will indeed destroy everything there.]

【That was the "final test", and compared to me here, it was quite extreme, which was caused by the history it had experienced.】

[Therefore, humans and Pokémon are interdependent. If either side develops strong malice, history will lead to an irreversible tragic ending. However, compared to the simple-minded Pokémon, humans with higher wisdom and more mature minds are more likely to fall into the abyss of malice.]

Arceus found Wang Luo's wish quite interesting, but he added a slight warning:
[If you want to go, I can allow you to travel in different worlds. However, you like to interfere with the choices of the world too much. Although this is also a part of promoting the development of history, you should be careful when you go to other worlds to do this.]

[Because there is no history of you, you cannot do anything to disrupt history. Guidance is limited, and you will also be restricted. Only when you reach a world where you really want to stay forever, will this restriction be lifted.]

"Isn't it about turning him into a Pokémon or something like that?"

Guangtai laughed, and seeing Wang Luo's puzzled expression, he simply explained: "You are not the only one who can travel in the worlds. In other words, we mentioned the incredible maze before, right? The world over there has a 'savior', and it is a 'human'."

"There are humans who arrived there from other worlds, or humans who traveled there from a long time ago. There are also people like 'time travelers' in the dark world I mentioned."

"Even in our world, there are lost people who have traveled to other worlds."

The protagonist of the maze world is a traveler who arrives there from other human worlds. He will transform into different Pokémon depending on the waveguide.

In the special episode, Liu Bo, who was lost in the rift of time and space, once became a time traveler. In the ruins of the God's Capital, he revealed that he had seen an era without Poké Balls, an era when the legendary Pokémon appeared, and even witnessed the complete destruction of the ruins of the God's Capital and the human world.

Even in the normal Pokémon world, there are places like the "Mirror Kingdom" in Kalos, where one can cross the barriers of time and space through special passages. Xiaozhi almost got lost in the other country.

"I thought my idea was unique, but I didn't expect someone else had already done it!"

"Oh, yes, 'she' is also a person lost in time and space. How could I have forgotten about this?"

After Wang Luo heard this, although he said something dejected, his expression became even more excited. The "she" in the speech was, of course, the super jade washer.

Wang Luo didn’t understand this aspect before, but now he finally understands it. It turns out that even that girl is not special. People like her exist in every world!
"This world is so vast! Ah. I have never felt that this world exudes such great kindness! So that's it, so that's it! Is it for this day that I have endured so much humiliation and suffering?"

"What we have exchanged for a sad past is an endless future! I am very satisfied with this answer!"

"Guang Tai! If we can meet again in the future, then since you know so many things, we are destined to meet again in the future! Maybe in the past, maybe in the future! When the time comes, let's share the information and experiences we have gained in different worlds! You and I are the same people, we both exist in this world to witness rare things, objects, and people!"

"The descendants of the Gods left ancient Sinnoh and are scattered throughout the world. Now even other worlds will be visited by the Gods. Perhaps pursuing history and myths is our destiny. We were born from myths and will continue to pursue them forever!"

Guangtai: "For me, I don't need to remember yesterday, nor do I need to think about tomorrow. I just need to live well in 'today'."

"Today will also become a new future, so I'm going to embark on a journey! Goodbye everyone!"

Wang Luo accepted the "blessing of restriction" given by Arceus, and he was very satisfied with the ending!

"It's just like the slate scattered on the green jade. We are scattered in all directions, praying forever to bring our traces to the new world we step into."

As he sighed, Guangtai also recalled an ancient poem, which warned and wished Wangluo and Zhulan:

"The stone slabs scattered across the Xicui lands contain the power of the universe."

"This is something that will last forever, engraved with eternal wishes."

“Hope that the thoughts contained therein will spread far and wide forever.”

"Ms. Zhulan, remember to collect these stone tablets when you go back. Team Galaxy may use them to do something. As for the Spear Pillar, I will go there after I finish my work. After all, it is not opened yet."

"Don't worry about your divine costume. I will find the right sewing materials to make it."

"Be careful of the red chains. The Red Sun wants to use these chains to control Dialga and Palkia and create a new galaxy. But if you want to get these chains by normal means, it won't work. But if you are a villain, then there is nothing to worry about."

woo-

Arceus raised his head, and his body shone brightly. His originally illusory body finally dissipated and turned into a huge amount of energy that merged into the world of the gods.

The scene of the Hall of Origin also quickly faded away, and everything returned to its original appearance in the ruins of the Divine Capital.

[Then, my fellow people of the Gods, may your future be bright. I will once again extend my sincere blessings to your world and the universe you live in! ]
