Chapter 581: First Day of Opening
Chapter 581: First Day of Opening
General Zhou couldn't help feeling helpless and disappointed as he listened to his eldest son's report. It was like a basin of cold water that extinguished the glimmer of hope that had just ignited in his heart.
He knew that so much time had passed, and by now the news of the Super Evolution Stone had spread far and wide, and everyone knew about it.
Even those who originally didn't know much about the situation probably noticed it.
In this case, it would be extremely difficult to obtain the Super Evolution Stone secretly, even more difficult than climbing to the sky.
Thinking of this, he could only sigh secretly and temporarily gave up this idea. Fortunately, he still had two super evolution stones in his hand.
Although it is not clear which kind of Pokémon they can evolve, it is better to have them than nothing.
But when he thought about his organization being an underground force and being under the severe crackdown of the alliance, it was extremely difficult to obtain important information from the alliance.
This gave him an extremely headache, as if countless ants were crawling around in his head.
After a moment of silence, General Zhou's gaze fell on Zhou Zhen again, his eyes revealing a hint of calculated conspiracy after careful consideration:
"Zhen'er, three months have passed now. How about this: bring some gifts and visit Wenqi in the next few days.
Let’s see what his attitude and reaction will be now that he is the Gym Leader of the League.
Let's also feel out his attitude and see if we can get hold of something on him during subsequent transactions, so that when we deal with him in the future, we can take the initiative and better control him."
Having said this, he paused slightly, as if he suddenly remembered something, with a trace of vigilance and worry flashing in his eyes, and added:
“But you must be very careful not to let him discover your intentions.
Oh, forget it, let’s not act rashly.
Wen Qi has a champion-level Alakazam with him. If you have any camera or recording equipment,
It would be difficult to escape its perception. Not only would the mission fail, but you might also be in danger.
For now, let's find out the situation and see when he is willing to make a trade."
Zhou Zhen listened to his father's words, and his facial expression changed constantly. Sometimes he was excited and thrilled about being entrusted with an important task, as if he saw an opportunity to show his talents on his father's side;
Sometimes there was worry and fear about the possible danger, and a hint of uneasiness appeared in his eyes.
But he still nodded respectfully and responded firmly:
"Don't worry, father. I will be careful."
The room fell silent again. The three of them were all thinking about their own things. The dim light flickered over them.
It seems to foreshadow the upcoming unknown variables and numerous crises, just like a storm is about to come, making people feel depressed and uneasy.
When the first ray of sunlight gently sprinkled on the earth, a new day quietly arrived. On the backstage display screen of the gym where Wen Qi was, it clearly showed that several challengers had registered today.
He frowned slightly and thought to himself:
"Looks like I'll be busy today."
After all, this was his first day as an official gym leader, which was completely different from yesterday, when it was just a gym challenge test.
And today was only the beginning of his true career as a gym leader, which inevitably made him a little uneasy.
With a hint of nervousness and anticipation, Wen Qi stepped into the gym steadily.
Inside the museum, the Wenhua siblings and Wenzhe were already there, concentrating on training their respective elves.
Today, Wenhua and his sister each own two Pokémons, one is the majestic Pidgeot, and the other is the Scorpion Tail issued by the Alliance.
The feathers of the two Pidgeots shone brightly in the sunlight. Its strength was close to level 30, and it was not far from breaking through to the advanced stage.
Every time it flaps its wings and flies high, it creates a powerful airflow, as if showing the world its growing strength.
As for the Scorpion, it was a Pokémon specially prepared by the League for novice trainers. Its aptitude was yellow and its strength was around level 10.
It is the perfect partner for those who are new to the path of elf training.
They have a nimble body, and their tail pincers flash with a cold luster. They move and attack flexibly on the training ground, demonstrating good combat potential.
Wen Qi turned his gaze to Wenzhe. He found that in Wenzhe's elf lineup, in addition to the green-qualified pincer-tailed scorpion he bought from him, there was also a furry ball.
Although this fur ball is only yellow in color, Wen Qi guessed that it was most likely prepared for him by his family.
As for why he chose Maoqiu, Wen Qi had some guesses in his mind: Maybe it was because this gym mainly focused on bug and grass types,
As the gym owner, I also own a powerful moth, so if Wenzhe encounters problems during training, he can ask me for help.
I have to say that the old village chief has considered everything very carefully.
At this moment, the strength of Wenzhe's two elves are also around level ten. In comparison, they are indeed slightly inferior to the elves of Wenhua brothers and sisters.
However, the Scorpions have the same starting point, and with the rich resources and professional guidance provided by the gym, plus the special effects of the gym's acceleration, their strength will surely be significantly improved in the future.
On the training ground, the Wenhua siblings and Wenzhe were concentrating on training their respective elves.
Suddenly, they caught a glimpse of Wen Qi from the corner of their eyes, and immediately stopped what they were doing, stood up quickly, with a hint of nervousness and respect on their faces, and said in unison:
"Master, good morning!"
The sound echoed in the empty gym, sounding particularly clear and loud.
Wen Qi was a little caught off guard by their sudden formal greeting. He was slightly stunned for a moment, then he reacted, raised the corners of his mouth, revealed a gentle smile, and responded:
"Hello, you guys too! You've started training so early, you all seem very hardworking. By the way, how do you feel about your time at the gym these few days?"
His voice was kind and gentle, which made people relax involuntarily.
Wenzhe scratched his head, a shy smile appeared on his face, and he spoke first:
“Master, I think it’s great.
When training here, I feel that the elves are particularly active, and it seems that they grow more easily and smoothly than when training outside. "
As he spoke, he looked at the elf beside him, his eyes full of fondness and pride.
"Yes, yes, Wenzhe is right!"
The Wenhua brothers and sisters nodded in agreement, their eyes sparkling with excitement.
"We feel the same way. It seems that the elves here have become more energetic and training is more exciting!"
Wen Qi knew that this was a special bonus effect given to them by the gym. At present, they were only apprentices and could only enjoy a 10% bonus.
However, once they become formal apprentices, the bonus will be increased to 20%, and by then, the effect will be more significant.
As for how to become a formal apprentice, Wen Qi had not explained it in detail before because he had not thought about it yet.
But he knew clearly that first, they had to train the scorpion to at least level 25.
This is not an easy task, after all, the growth of elves requires the accumulation of time and energy;
Secondly, the training attitude must be serious and rigorous, which is also crucial in Wenqi's opinion.
As for the other conditions, Wen Qi has not considered them carefully yet. He plans to take it one step at a time.
After all, even with the support of the gym, if you want to raise the strength of the elves to level 25,
For these novice trainers, it will take several months or even more than half a year.
They don't have a golden finger like Wen Qi, and they can't make the elves grow quickly in a short period of time. Everything depends on their own efforts and persistence.
Wen Qi looked at the three people in front of him, his heart full of anticipation.
He believed that with the training of the gym, they would gradually grow into excellent Pokémon trainers and bring honor to the gym.
