Chapter 417 Teacher Yu, is your Pokémon collection really legal??
Aoba — no, Cynthia's meal today is a very Sinnoh-style soup curry and sea urchin rice bowl.
For Qingyu, it was a delicious dish from her childhood memories, and in addition to its delicious taste, it also had the added bonus of a nostalgic filter.
"tasty!!!"
So he accidentally ate an extra bowl of rice.
Of course, compared to the other Pokémon he brought, he was probably the most conservative one.
"Mmm!"
At the dining table, Ai Guan Shi Mei Mei, sitting alone in the corner, was putting all her effort into finishing the last bowl of rice at lightning speed. She then held the bowl tightly to one side and looked at Zhu Lan with expectant eyes.
I guess Snorlax's appetite isn't that big of a deal.
Its terrifying appetite made Dr. Bamboo Orchid and Dr. Mustard Orchid think at the same time.
But this is a good thing. Pokémon are healthier if they eat more. Being able to eat a lot means they have excellent physical fitness. No wonder they look much more robust than other Abbots.
As expected of Qingyu, even the Pokémon he captured were all unique and extraordinary.
Of course, there are other experts besides Ai Guan Shi's younger sister.
However, given the size of Milton and Salamence, it would be difficult for them to sit on the table to eat, so they weren't that conspicuous.
"I'm stuffed."
Just as Zhu Lan's gaze was focused on Ai Guan Shi, who was performing a mukbang, Qing Yu suddenly spoke up, then stood up and walked outside.
As soon as I stepped outside, I saw a Salamence lying on its back on the ground, burping and with a round belly.
Qingyu walked over with amusement and patted its belly.
When we first released it, the Salamence threw a little tantrum because we opted for a more comfortable airplane instead of it when we went out.
Fortunately, this silly boy's emotions came and went quickly. After seeing the sumptuous meal prepared for him, all he could think about was eating rice.
It saved me the trouble of comforting it; it healed itself.
Salamence is actually a pretty good flying Pokémon. Its four-limbed body structure makes it more stable to ride than Dragonite, and its speed is comparable.
Compared to human-made technological products, it falls short in terms of comfort, making it only suitable for short trips.
Without a steel body like A-du's, capable of maintaining the same motion for hours and completely ignoring enormous wind resistance, the power of technology is indeed more reliable.
Being a Dragon Tamer isn't easy!
Qingyu sighed inwardly.
After the meal, it's the usual time to check on the Pokémon's health.
Compared to Pokémon Centers with Nurse Joy and other Pokémon characters as mascots, the regional professors' labs are actually the real authorities in this field.
After all, they are a professional team working on the front lines of research. It's just that under normal circumstances, trainers rarely come to the doctor specifically to do such a small thing.
-
It's roughly equivalent to seeing a specialist for a cold, and in most cases, newcomers don't even get to see a PhD.
In fact, Qingyu is quite confident in maintaining the health of his Pokémon. After all, his Pokémon don't undergo high-pressure training (except for the ever-present Lucario), and they don't usually have many opportunities to get injured. He also consciously controls this during battles.
However, because it was Dr. Mustard's strong request, Qingyu had no choice but to go with her.
Soon, something unexpected happened to Qingyu.
"Whoa! It's the real Ms. Yu!!!"
"Teacher Yu, it's finally my turn to urge you to update offline! Please release a special issue on Sinnoh Legends!"
"To be able to get in touch with Yu-sensei's Pokémon, hehe—it would be even better if I could give her a medical check-up!"
Faced with the researchers who immediately surrounded her and looked quite young, Qingyu could only offer an awkward yet polite smile and nod repeatedly.
"Definitely, definitely, I'll take care of it."
"When has Teacher Yu ever stood you up? You can rest assured!"
It's one thing that the researchers at Professor Oak's lab are all his fans, but why is it that even Professor Iris is—?
Fortunately, the researchers were very sensible. After Dr. Mustard coughed lightly, they immediately scattered and returned to their posts, putting in their best effort to start working.
Being able to measure the body data of Teacher Yu's Pokémon is definitely a fan perk they've always dreamed of!
However, they soon realized that something was wrong.
"What's wrong with this Lucario? How did it punch right through the device??? This is a brand new piece of equipment that can withstand two tons of punch force!"
"So Sylveon can actually learn electromagnetic waves? Could there be a problem with Oak's team's previous research report?"
"Teacher Yu's Mega Salamence is pretty persistent. It's been half an hour since I finished eating and it still hasn't reverted back to its original form—hmm???"
"Wait a minute, why are all the people who take measurements for that pesky dog asleep?"
"As expected of Teacher Yu, not a single one of his Pokémon is legal!"
"zZZ"
After Aoba's Pokémon appeared, the originally serious research atmosphere suddenly became chaotic.
Of course, these four Pokémon are still relatively good, at least there is readily available data to compare them with, and even if they are not quite normal, at least there is a limit.
The other three Pokémon, which the researchers had never even seen before, were clearly the more troublesome ones.
Even Professor Ichigo, who is very knowledgeable and has probably seen more Pokémon than Qingyu has eaten, subconsciously pushed up his reading glasses and looked at Qingyu with a strange gaze.
"Little Qingyu, when you were in Padia, did you never go to the Doctor's Research Institute?"
When she subconsciously asked, Dr. Mustard Seed belatedly realized that the doctor and his wife from Patiaa had lost contact in Sector Zero more than a year ago, so even if Qingyu wanted to go there, she couldn't find them.
No wonder Qingyu's Pokémon data has always been blank.
Thinking of this, Dr. Mustard sighed.
"Anyway, your Pokémon can stay here for the time being tonight. We should be done by tomorrow night at the latest."
"Wouldn't that be too much trouble for them?"
So being a Pokémon illegitimate can lead to this kind of trouble, even getting you scrutinized during a medical checkup —
Qingyu scratched her cheek.
"Don't worry, they'd love for this kind of good thing to happen."
Dr. Mustard smiled.
What does it mean to be able to study several unconfirmed Pokémon, as well as special individuals of known Pokémon?
This means that there are so many topics coming to our door that we can't possibly use them all!
If Qingyu stayed with them for a while longer, these researchers would probably treat her like a treasure.
Just as she had expected, the researchers, who were initially taken aback by Qingyu's Pokémon, quickly put on excited expressions after figuring things out, occasionally chuckling and muttering to themselves, "I've got it! My top-journal paper is here!"
"Three Pokémon that aren't in the Pokédex appeared at the same time? How could I have such a wonderful dream???"
"Heh, heh heh—I think I already know what to write about for my graduation thesis. Dr. Blatano, with all his qualifications, could he possibly know more about Mega Evolution than I do?"
"Burn, my researcher's power!"
"Hahaha, I did it! I, the Taoist priest, did it!"
The already chaotic research lab suddenly went berserk.
"The researchers in the Pokémon world are incredibly pure—"
Qingyu subconsciously let out a sigh.
After leaving Dr. Mustard's team, Qingyu, now alone, was about to return to her room when she noticed Zhulan, who had changed into a pink loungewear outfit, as she passed by the study.
She sat on the sofa, holding a tablet and meditating with her head down, rhythmically tapping the back of her fingers.
Qingyu was a little curious, so she tiptoed over.
The tablet displays an enlarged photograph. The background appears to be a heavily weathered stone slab, but the original carvings have left deep marks, and the inscribed symbols are still intact.
At a glance, Qingyu recognized the special symbols on it.
They are said to be the eternal wisdom left to mankind by the creator god Arceus. Through the arrangement and combination of different symbols, they formed the earliest language, and their presence can be found in many ancient stone tablets of ruins.
From these symbols, a special Pokémon called Unknown Totem was even born.
Each of the 28 unknown totems corresponds to one of the 26 Latin letters and one of the exclamation mark and question mark. A single totem has no combat power, but it can unleash terrifying power through permutation and combination.
(Unknown Totem)
However, records of this ancient script have been gradually lost with the changing times, becoming the biggest challenge for archaeological research today.
"When the universe was born, its fragments turned into stone tablets."
"The power bestowed upon the stone tablet is the power of the giants He once defeated."
"Time and space, two separate entities since its birth into the world."
"The two are, the three are————, I really don't understand the rest."
"This is all we can translate for now; the rest will require more time to decipher."
Zhu Lan sighed and was about to scroll to another photo.
However, at that moment, a large hand suddenly appeared in her line of sight and extended two fingers to slide across the tablet screen, zooming in on the image again.
"Is this a stone slab from the Pillar of Spear ruins?"
Zhu Lan subconsciously turned around and realized that Qing Yu had appeared behind her at some point.
"Yes, because the stone slabs are inconvenient to move directly, we chose to bring them back by taking photos and translate them slowly."
"Wait, Qingyu, you—you don't actually understand ancient writing, do you?"
Seeing his serious expression, Zhu Lan subconsciously made a teasing remark and offered her seat on the sofa.
Although the possibility is slim, since ancient writing is something that has long been lost, but—
What if Qingyu really knows it?
For some reason, Zhu Lan had this thought inexplicably.
Qingyu didn't stand on ceremony, or rather, he was so focused that he didn't think much about it. He sat down next to Zhulan without noticing that the single sofa had become a little crowded because of his presence, causing their arms to touch.
Fortunately, Qingyu wasn't the chubby, doting younger sister; otherwise, there might not have been enough room for her.
"I know a little bit."
His gaze remained fixed on the text symbols on the screen, and he quickly spoke in a low voice.
For people in the Pokémon world, this is indeed a difficult language system to understand, since they now use Pokémon Common.
But in Qingyu's eyes, the unknown totem can be seen as a series of English letters.
Combining each letter to form words and translating the content of each sentence is not too difficult for him.
The most useful episode on English!
"Time and space, two separate entities since its birth into the world."
"The three Pokémon were born from it, and together they connect time and space."
"The two are matter, the three are mind; from this arises prayer, and from this takes shape the world."
Qingyu continued speaking, following what Zhulan had translated earlier, while also having a general idea of what was going on.
The two refer to the two gods of time and space, while the three refer to the gods of the lake, or the three holy mushrooms.
Yuxi, who brought wisdom to mankind; Emrido, who taught mankind to have emotions; and Azelum, who gave mankind willpower.
(The Gods of the Lake)
It's pretty much the same storyline as in the game.
Before summoning the two Time Gods, Team Galactic's three executives first captured the three legendary mushrooms and used their power to create a red chain connecting time and space, which they used to forcibly control Dialga and Palkia.
In other words, the power of the Three Sacred Mushrooms is the key to communicating with the Two Gods of Time and Space?
It can be considered a double insurance policy left by Arceus.
"Um----?"
Zhu Lan blinked and subconsciously looked at Qing Yu, who was deep in thought.
The only missing part in her translation was some unknown nouns, so it was easy to see that Qingyu's translation was very accurate.
Is it really true?
However, since he has been very knowledgeable about mythology and history since childhood, it is normal for him to have studied ancient writing, right?
She was somewhat confused, but Zhu Lan didn't pay attention to these details. Instead, like Qing Yu, she began to think about what he had translated.
This is similar to previous assumptions.
The power of the Lake Gods is also essential for successfully summoning the Twin Gods of Time and Space and re-establishing a connection with them.
I really need to go to the three great lakes and get their approval.
However, that's not the focus right now.
"Wow, Aoba is amazing!"
Zhu Lan suddenly smiled and patted his shoulder approvingly.
"You've even mastered an ancient script that's been lost to time! It's a waste of your talent that you're not back in Sinnoh as a mythologist!"
"In that case, I have some parts here that I'm not sure I can translate, so I'll trouble you with those too~"
Zhu Lan quickly revealed her true intentions, tapping the screen several times before swiping to another photo of an ancient stone slab.
Qingyu nodded and did not refuse, and soon began the translation work.
For him, deciphering the content was simply a matter of converting letters into words, which was much easier than starting from scratch with Zhulan.
Since I'm here to help out, I might as well help her with some of the work.
