Pokémon: This trainer is too wild!

Chapter 514 Paradoxical Pokémon! Ancient and Future

Please, this is the most important request I've ever made in my life!

Upon hearing this, Mammon almost lost his composure and looked at Qishu with a strange expression.

"What kind of mindset led you to say that?"

Mammon gazed subtly at the strange tree.

It's too much to keep saying "the most important request of my life".

"Haha... handsome, your eyes are a little dangerous."

Qi Shu snapped out of his daze and immediately took two steps back.

“It’s clearly your words that are more dangerous,” Mammon clicked his tongue.

"But I really like this Blademaster..."

Qi Shu pouted; that Iron Warrior was simply too cool for her to handle!
"Alright, if we encounter any weaker ones later, I'll help you catch one."

Mammon thought about it and didn't refuse; it was just something he could do on a whim.

Wow!! Handsome guy, you're so nice~!

"It's not free."

"Eh?"

Qi Shu was taken aback.

"I believe in equal exchange, and getting something for nothing is unacceptable, Qishu. How about this, promise me one thing, okay?"

Mammon looked Qishu up and down. The carnivorous look in Qishu's eyes made Qishu tighten its thighs and take a step back cautiously.

"Damn it! I will never accept something like that!"

Qi Shu shook his head firmly and said No.

"Don't worry, although the strange tree is very beautiful, I'm not so unprincipled as to do that. It's definitely something you can accept."

"really?"

"of course."

Mammon's lips slowly curled into a smile.

"OK then."

Kiju was skeptical, but then he thought, after all, the other party is the boss of Team Rocket, surely he wouldn't force his way in, right?
Meanwhile, Mizuki discussed the matter with Plantina, and since they both liked Iron Warrior, they decided to play a fair game of rock-paper-scissors.

In the end, Mizuki won and sent out the Blazing Roaring Tiger to fight.

"Yay! I've captured it!"

Mizuki was very happy, after all, she had gotten another Pokémon she liked.

"Don't be discouraged, there will definitely be more later. There are probably a lot of Paradox Pokémon in this place."

Mammon rubbed the head of a somewhat disappointed Prantina.

Prandina thought about it and realized that it was indeed true.

The group continued down to the bottom, and as they descended, the sunlight gradually disappeared, and it grew darker and darker.

Along the way, they encountered many other paradoxical Pokémon.

Iron sheet metal, roaring moon, vibrating wings, iron arms, iron thorns, iron neck, etc.

There is no doubt that there are quite a lot of Paradox Pokémon.

Zone Zero, bottom layer.

This place is no longer exposed to sunlight, but huge, dazzling gems, covered in crystalline flowers, illuminate the surrounding environment.

This allowed Mammon and the others to barely see the path ahead.

silence!

The silence was absolute, and the tranquil atmosphere, combined with the surrounding environment, was somewhat eerie.

"This environment is a bit eerie."

Mizuki kept looking around; this place was like another world.

"Yes, this is the bottom level of Zone Zero. We'll head to the Zone Zero Research Institute next."

Mammon nodded and led the group forward.

"Hello everyone! We're here to grab your attention with an electric grid! Who's going to tell the story? The Strange Tree is here!"

"I am Qishu! Can you guess where Qishu is right now? You'll never guess!"

"It's the bottom of the Paddy Pit! The lowest level of Zone Zero, it's absolutely spectacular here!"

Qishu was taking a selfie video with his phone in one hand, while clutching Mammon's coat with the other.

Yes, she feels very safe near Mammon.

"You're really dedicated," Mammon couldn't help but chuckle after seeing that Qishu had finished filming.

"Of course! Videos and live streams are my hobbies, and I'm always full of energy when I do them!"

Qi Shu proudly raised his delicate chin and chuckled.

"An internal video of Zone Zero. Once this video is finished and released, it's guaranteed to go viral!"

The mysterious interior of the Padiya Crater, with its bizarre and wondrous internal environment, is something that all Padiyas want to know.

Qi Shu couldn't even imagine how popular his videos would become!

"I guess so. Looks like we've arrived."

Mammon remained noncommittal, then looked ahead and raised an eyebrow.

Wow, is it that spectacular?

Mizuki couldn't help but gasp in surprise, her eyes widening considerably.

There's no other reason than that the view ahead was simply too magnificent and breathtaking.

It was a huge research institute, and the entire building was almost entirely covered by enormous crystals, with colorful gems standing around it.

"This……"

Qi Shu filmed the Zero Zone Research Institute, clicking his tongue in amazement.

“It’s like the research institute has become too crystallized.” Piper frowned.

If the research institute has become like this, what happened to the people inside?
At that moment, a deep and domineering dragon roar came from the horizon.

"that is?"

Meiyue and the others looked up.

They discovered that a huge red dragon had descended from the sky and landed heavily in front of the research institute.

It has a thick, long tail, a strong and robust body, a chest that looks like it has a tire embedded in it, and a head covered in wild white fur.

It is none other than Guleton, one of the guardian dragons of the park!

The powerful and fierce aura was almost overwhelming, and the immense and heavy pressure was astonishing.

“Guleton…” Piper’s brows were still furrowed as he stared at the powerful dragon and whispered its name.

But... something's not right.

Piper looked at the imposing Guleton. Although he hadn't seen it for many years, this Guleton seemed a little different from the one he remembered. "Gas!"

Therefore, Leton had excellent hearing. Upon hearing Pipa's voice, his fierce dragon eyes immediately turned towards it, emitting a low hiss.

However, before Gullardon could make any move.

The warning lights on the gate of the Zero Zone Research Institute began to beep loudly, and soon after, the gate was opened.

A large number of paradoxical Pokémon ran out from inside, while Guleton strode towards the research institute.

"Phew~ This Pokémon is so scary, I'm afraid to breathe!"

After Leighton left, Qishu finally breathed a sigh of relief, patted his chest, and whispered.

Because Guleton's aura was so violent and fierce, the pressure made her instinctively hold her breath, afraid of being noticed by Guleton.

"interesting."

Mammon chuckled softly.

"This Pokémon is definitely very strong, probably legendary level, Pipa? You recognize it, right?"

Mizuki's eyes sparkled; she quite liked this Pokémon, finding it to have a wild beauty.

"Hmm... It's Guleton, my mother's Pokémon."

Piper hesitated for a moment, then opened his palm, revealing two empty Poké Balls.

“Guleton? Never heard of it.” Prantina asked in confusion.

“It’s normal that I haven’t heard of them. Over the years, apart from my mother’s Guleton, I have never seen any other Guleton, or even heard of them.”

Piper shook his head and said.

"My mother and father brought back Gullardon and Milton from somewhere, but Gullardon and Milton have very strong wild instincts, which causes them to often attack other innocent Pokémon."

"So in order to prevent the outside world from discovering them and to protect those innocent Pokémon, my father and mother took them into Sector Zero, and then... they never came out."

Pipa said in a low voice, his eyes slightly red.

The two empty Poké Balls in his hand were actually the Poké Balls of Guleton and Milton, given to him by Orin and Fortu.

Sensing the sadness and sorrow in Papa's words, Mizuki and the others exchanged glances but said nothing.

Although they couldn't understand why Dr. Orin and the others hadn't come out and didn't care about their child.

"Then go find those two PhDs and ask them why they haven't come to see you all these years."

Mammon patted Piper on the shoulder and led the way toward the Zero Zone Research Institute.

"Let's go, let's go into the research institute."

Zero Zone Research Institute, the source of everything.

Mammon and the others slowly entered the Zone Zero Research Institute, but the institute was eerily quiet.

Or rather, there was no life at all!
"Human reactions were detected within the Zero Zone Research Institute, and sleep mode was dispelled."

Suddenly, two emotionless voices rang out, startling Qi Shu.

It was clearly a man's and a woman's voices, yet they overlapped perfectly, which was very strange.

Just after the sound faded, footsteps approached, and a man and a woman, both wearing research coats, emerged from around the corner.

"Hello, Mammon and the others, it's a pleasure to have you here."

The speaker was a woman with healthy, tanned skin; she was Dr. Orin.

She had long brown hair, and under her research gown was an old-fashioned tube top and shorts, giving her a very ancient style.

The other was a man wearing a fitted, technologically advanced bodysuit, with a mature face; he was Dr. Futu.

"Hello, Dr. Orin, Dr. Fortu, it's a pleasure to meet you."

Mammon greeted him with a smile.

Piper looked at the two of them with a complex expression that resembled a pie chart.

Meanwhile, Gadriya and the others looked at the two young doctors with great curiosity. Although they were young, they were already famous throughout the Padia region.

"Professor Orin, Professor Fortu, hello. I am the Gym Leader of Brewmaster City. Do you mind if I take your picture?"

Qi Shu was very excited, and she also respected the two doctors.

"Hello, Master Qishu, we know you. In theory, we don't mind your filming, but the following conversation may not be suitable for you to release."

Dr. Furtu said with a faint smile in his magnetic voice.

However, if you pay close attention, you'll notice that both Futu and Orin are always smiling, but these smiles are like mechanical, perfect smiles, devoid of any emotion.
"Huh?" Qi Shu was taken aback.

"Well, there's something I have to tell you about him and me."

Dr. Orin pointed to herself and Dr. Futu.

“We are not Dr. Orin or Dr. Fortu.”

"??"

Upon hearing this, Qishu Paipa and the others were all extremely astonished.

What does it mean if it's not the person in question?
"What does this mean?" Mizuki asked, puzzled.

"Literally, the doctor and his team created two artificial intelligences, namely Ai, based on their own knowledge and memory..."

"And we are robots driven by those two AIs."

"Due to the accident at the 4th Observatory, the real doctor is no longer here."

"Aurelia Ai explained."

“How could this be…?” Papa’s pupils trembled slightly as he stared in disbelief at the two ‘parents’ in front of him.

So, his father and mother were actually already dead?
Piper's mentality was starting to crumble.

"So, Dr. Ai, I'd like to ask you, what exactly is going on with those paradoxical Pokémon outside?"

Mammon patted Pipa on the back reassuringly and asked Orin Ai.

"The Paradox Pokémon were all brought by the time machine," Orin Ai replied.

"A time machine?" Gadriya was taken aback by the words and subconsciously glanced at Mammon, who had mentioned a time machine to her before.

"The time machine is a device developed by the professor and the two of us AIs. It can capture Pokémon from different timelines and summon them to the present," Futu AI explained.

"Huh?" Qi Shu was shocked.

"Pokémon from different timelines?"

Prantina's face scrunched up in a frown. Was it really as she understood it? No, was it really correct?

No, no, no, it's more accurate to say that these two AIs, who are almost indistinguishable from ordinary people, are already astonishing enough.

"That's right, that's the origin of Paradox Pokémon. The two professors have had a great passion for Pokémon from other eras since they were young."

"They are each obsessed with ancient Pokémon and future Pokémon, dreaming of creating a world where paradoxical Pokémon and modern Pokémon can live happily together."

"Aurelia Ai continued."

"Tsk tsk~ Impressive..." Mizuki could only admire him. Is this the talent of a research doctor?

They can even build a time machine?!
