Pokémon, but cultural invasion

Chapter 101 Another Miracle

Whether day or night, Spike Town seems to be shrouded in a thin layer of gray, and the streetlights at the crossroads cast dim yellow glows.

Mary dodged the swarms of flies under the lights and made her way home through the graffiti-covered and dilapidated alleyways.

Spike Town, having lost its Dynamax power, is becoming increasingly dilapidated, and even adding rock elements to gym battles is failing to attract viewers.

However, her brother Nie Zi, as the dojo master, didn't pay much attention to the town's future, but instead devoted his extra energy to the band.

Even late at night, he would sit in the living room amidst a pile of musical instruments and video chat with his friends.

"Homiga, listen to me, the person who gave me this piece is an absolute genius."

Nie Zi had pale skin, dark circles under her eyes, and a slender, seemingly malnourished appearance.

He held his electric guitar, tapping out a rhythm and humming, "Dede dede dede~"

"Have you noticed that this song only has one melody, yet you never get tired of listening to it?"

The white-haired girl talking to him on the screen had an exaggeratedly high ponytail and wore a wide-sleeved top with purple and blue stripes.

She asked, "Thoughts are flowing like a spring... I remember that Brainiac Maniac was also commissioned by him to be written by you, right?"

"Yes."

Nie Zi remarked with emotion when talking about this incident: "I never expected that he was from Tingxiang Studio. That song was eventually used in Plants vs. Zombies."

"Dude, staying up late is bad for your health."

Mary leaned against the wooden door, her face expressionless.

Upon hearing the clear, emotionless voice, Homiga on the screen craned his neck, looking around: "What a cute girl, is she your sister?"

Nie Zi proudly introduced, "Yes, her talent makes me feel inferior, to the point that I sometimes have the idea of ​​handing over the position of dojo master."

He said to Marie, "Didn't you want to become a Gym Leader to revitalize Spiketown? Come here, this is the Li Yong Gym Leader from the Unova region."

Once you become a dojo master, you will inevitably have to interact with your colleagues.

Mary felt it was necessary to maintain Spikes' friendship with the other gyms after taking over the Spikes gym.

So she obediently walked over and sat down among the musical instruments.

"Nice to meet you. I am Homiga from Liyong City. I am proficient in Poison-type Pokémon, my hobby is rock music, and my best instrument is the electric bass."

Homiga has a personality that allows her to quickly strike up a conversation with anyone, making her a true party animal.

"Hello, I'm Mary, and I'm about to embark on a trip with Morbeco."

After a brief exchange, Homiga's attention immediately returned to the piece of music they had just heard.

"Time to pretend, but unfortunately the other party only provided the general melody and main instruments; we need to fill in the score and details."

Homiga's thoughts were exactly what Nie Zi regretted. He said, "Such an excellent piece of music makes me doubt whether I have the ability to complete it."

"Including the songs he sent along with 'Tears of the City' and 'White Queen,' they should all be pieces that Tingxiang will use in his new composition."

Homiga asked in confusion, "Tingxiang? With that company's resources, they could easily form a band, so why would they need you to compose the music?"

"I find it strange too. Maybe it's because Tingxiang wasn't famous yet, and we started working together a long time ago."

Nie Zi could only attribute the reason to the pleasant cooperation in the past, and he shared three humming pieces provided by Si Ruquanyong.

...

"The three pieces are completely different in style. The ethereal quality of the Tears City and the tranquility of the White Queen... This guy might really be a genius."

Homiga looked at him strangely. "But the first half of his humming is completely different from the second half. Is that a characteristic of the song?"

"Based on my experience collaborating with you, it's just that you're off-key. I invited you here to help complete the piano part of the first song..."

Nie Zi and Homi Jia had a heated discussion, and when they got to the point of exhilaration, they beat their chests and stomped their feet, picking up their instruments to test each other's playing.

This was the first time Mary had ever seen her brother, who was usually so restless, calm down and work out a musical score.

Although Mary couldn't understand the professional music terms the two were using, the beautiful melodies that occasionally flowed out still amazed her.

All three songs have incredibly beautiful melodies.

The recent viral sensation surrounding Tingxiang Studio, located in a remote area, is not based on any personal opinion or media reports.

Mary finally had a little bit of real impression of herself.

"Buibui—"

Izumi returned to the villa after working as a courier all afternoon and found Ibu shaking its head in its room.

She lay on the bed, poking at a cell phone with a brown case with her two paws.

"Ibrahimovic, where did you get this phone? Did you hide some money from someone?"

"Boy!"

Izumi was startled when the door suddenly opened and Ibu quickly stuffed her phone under her bottom.

"Hiding it won't help, I've already seen it all."

"Come on, let me see!"

Ignoring Ibu's resistance, Izumi pulled the phone out from under her buttocks.

Upon inspection, in addition to the floating interfaces of various games, he also discovered that Ibu had created his own account on Pikachu.

【Cloth Superman】

The main content released was a highlight reel of Ibrahimovic playing games.

"What are you doing? Are you planning to debut as an idol?"

Izumi picked up Eevee, who had planted a strawberry on his shoulder, and grabbed the scruff of Eevee's neck, which held the key to his fate. No matter how much Eevee resisted, it was to no avail.

"Posting videos is normal, but how did you learn to edit them?"

Quanshu flipped through two or three game highlight reels, which were clearly the work of a seasoned veteran who was well-versed in editing.

Add to that the inexplicably extra cell phone, and there's only one truth—there were accomplices.

Who is the accomplice? It's so hard to guess.

This reminds me of when Qishu first arrived and tricked Ibu into going to the hotel with just a few words.

"I wondered what benefits I promised you that you were bought off with just a cell phone?"

"Are you some poor girl who got tricked by blond hair with a starchy sausage, huh?"

Ibrahimovic, swaying back and forth, seemed resigned to his fate, hanging his head dejectedly.

"However, I'm a fairly open-minded parent. If you want to keep posting videos, go ahead, just be careful to protect your eyes."

Izumi put Eevee down. Although she didn't know if Pokémon were nearsighted, it was still good to mention it.

"Boy!"

Ibu: ?(^?^*).

"Om-"

It turned out to be my own phone vibrating.

"Yu Honglijia: The song you requested has been recorded by my band. Please check your inbox."

"Thoughts flow like a spring: Thank you so much. (Ibrahimovic bows.jpg)"

The two versions of the theme song for Ultraman Tiga are "Miracle Again" and "Take Me Higher".

Izumi liked them both, so they asked Rika's orchestra to play together.

He condensed the audio into a small file and randomly clicked on one of them.

The familiar melody resounds once again under the starry sky of a distant world.

Like sunlight piercing through the night.

Dawn quietly breaks across the horizon.

“Wow, that sounds good!”

The spring tree turned around, and the door wasn't closed properly, attracting a strange tree that seemed to have appeared out of nowhere.

She ran up to him and pulled a knotted roll of wired headphones from her pocket.

How can you listen to music without headphones?

"This song is from a TV series; yours is still in production."

"I know."

Qi Shu plopped down on the edge of the bed and held out her hand to him: "Here you go!"

He grabbed the white earphones from her hand, put them in his right ear, and the two sat side by side.

Gazing at the strange tree swaying with white socks half a meter away, he felt a strange sense of disorientation, perhaps a bit like the lyrics hummed in his headphones:

[Traveling through time and space, giving it our all]

I will come to your side.

Chapter 102 Nationwide Release

With summer more than halfway over, the annoying chirping of cicadas continues tirelessly from dawn till dusk.

During this period, the filming of Ultraman Tiga progressed well, and Izumi signed contracts with television stations in various regions.

Among them were gamblers who bought out the show at high prices, and conservatives who proposed paying based on viewership ratings.

After a long negotiation process, a broadcast time was finally agreed upon with the regional television stations—Saturday afternoons at 7 pm, one episode per week.

Correspondingly, Tingxiang's tireless efforts to boost the show's popularity online have also fueled viewers' anticipation for the series.

To celebrate the first broadcast, he showered the crew, who were still filming, with bonuses to boost morale, which was met with enthusiastic response.

Tonight at 6 PM, Ultraman Tiga will be shown simultaneously in nine major regions, including Kanto, Johto, and Padia, as well as remote regions such as Orei, Gente, Fire, and even Almia.

Meanwhile, the Quartz convention exhibition match is just around the corner.

"Do I look good in my combat uniform?"

In the living room, the strange tree tiptoed and spun lightly.

The skirt, trimmed with pale gold, swirled like a winding golden river.

She wore an exquisite silver-white crown with lightning bolt patterns and an elaborate princess dress in light pink and electric blue as the main colors.

A light blue tulle shawl with an electric current pattern draped over a heart-shaped neckline, and blue and white high heels slapped the floor.

"very nice."

Quanshu expressed his true feelings, saying that every aspect of the outfit resonated with his aesthetic sense.

The smug Qi Shu laughed heartily: "Then don't forget to come to the scene that day and cheer me on."

"I will, Quartz Plateau..."

The memory stirred up some sad memories, and Izumi's feelings were as complicated as when she returned to her high school classroom.

"It's a pity that Naz isn't participating in the exhibition match with me, otherwise the waiting period wouldn't be so boring."

Kiju grumbled as she remarked that her relationship with Naz had progressed rapidly during this time, especially after she discovered that Naz's obedience increased dramatically after she said the word "friend."

Despite playing many games and eating a lot of desserts with Qi Shu, Naz didn't come away empty-handed.

She mapped out the approximate movement trajectory of the mysterious spirit based on its intermittent superpowers each day.

Izumi looked at Natsumi's statistics and realized that the first few days of exploration could be considered as activities in the Kanto region.

Over time, Mewtwo was running all over the world, leaving its mark in every region.

He estimated that Mewtwo must have built its Pokémon Castle quite quickly, and that it would be located on a small island in the Kanto region.
