"Sonia's driving skills are hard to describe." Lu Ye used an analogy, "She can drive up a tree on flat ground, just like Dandi would get lost if he walked out of the Elf Center."
Shirona put her hand on her chin, and was stunned. It was as if a light bulb lit up on her forehead.
She thought back to the experience at the coffee shop, where Sonia seemed to have really flipped out during the ribbon-cutting ceremony.
Lu Ye: "... Did you just remember it?"
Sirona: "How is that possible? Haha, the airport is very close to the Mimosa Hotel, so it shouldn't be a problem."
As soon as she said this, Sirona realized she had said something wrong and glanced at Lu Ye.
Hmm... I also unconsciously learned his catchphrase.
Sizzle!
There was a drifting sound at the end of the road.
On the airport road which was wide enough to allow several cars to drive side by side, a pink car suddenly turned the steering wheel to the maximum and its tires left two glaring marks.
Teacher Lu and Sirona were stunned.
After slowing down, accelerating out of the turn can be called a pendulum drift. Although the road is extremely wide, it gives people the thrill of racing on a cliff.
The pink car's tires were smoking, and the engine didn't shut down until it drove in front of the two men.
The car window was lowered, and Sonia wiped the cold sweat from her forehead while smiling and greeting:
"Hey, Mr. Lu, Zhulan Champion, I'm here to pick you up!"
Sirona: “…”
It seems that the problem is indeed a bit big.
Lu Ye glanced at the smoking tire and murmured:
"How about, Sonia, you park the car here and we can take a taxi together?"
Sonia put her hands on the steering wheel and blinked her green eyes: "Huh?"
The pink car was parked in the airport parking lot, and Sonia contacted someone to come and repair it.
A sedan was sent by the Mimosa Hotel to welcome the three distinguished guests.
“This was actually an accident.”
Sonia and Sirona sat in the back row, hugged the caller, and said seriously:
"I'm a very good driver. Every time Dandi gets lost, Lai Dian Wang and I drive to pick him up!"
"Really? I remember that you and Dandi were childhood sweethearts." Shirona said gently.
"What childhood sweetheart? Dan Di is just a fool who only cares about fighting and will be lost without me!" Sonia said proudly.
"Hmm..." Sirona's gray eyes flickered slightly, and she quietly glanced at the seats in front of her.
Without Lu Ye, I would no longer be myself.
Lu Ye sat in the front row, lost in thought.
A person with poor sense of direction and a road killer.
It's a miracle that you and Dandi can grow up safely together!
By the way, I remember that after Dante got lost, he looked for Chibana the most, not Sonia...
Arrived at the Mimosa Hotel.
Sonia led the two and introduced the hotel and surrounding facilities.
"The Mimosa Hotel is a chain of high-end hotels. Next to it is the arena of Jiqing City. The venue in the backyard of the hotel can be used for fighting..."
"The whole Galar is very keen on Pokémon battles." Shirona put her hands on her waist, looking a little surprised.
"Hmm... How should I put it..." Sonia scratched her orange hair and said with a wry smile, "Because Galar is poor in resources, it has vigorously developed battle events, and the people are also widely affected."
"Adapting to local conditions is a unique alliance style." Lu Ye nodded.
President Ross is a businessman with a unique vision. Without him, the development of the Galar Alliance would be delayed by at least ten years.
In addition, the title of 'Strongest Champion' Dantei also boosted the popularity of Galar events.
On the other hand, once Dan Di falls from the altar, the economy of the event will surely decline, and Dan Di is bound to be slandered. The pressure can be imagined.
Even so, Dan Di can still smile brightly during the game - he truly loves fighting.
Even though he is covered in advertisements, Dandi is still happy to do it for Galar.
The group walked into the lobby of the Mimosa Hotel.
The lobby is extremely spacious, with a mirror-clear floor. Luxurious staircases on both sides lead to the second floor, with a majestic gilded statue placed in the center of the stairs.
The statue looks like a brave man holding a sword and a shield.
Noticing the looks of Lu Ye and Sirona, Sonia explained:
"This is a statue commemorating the Sword and Shield Hero's fight against 'Darkness'."
She stood in front of the statue with her hands behind her back, staring at the unrecognizable face, and said softly:
"Legend has it that three thousand years ago, darkness descended upon the Galar region. The land was shrouded in darkness. A brave warrior armed with a sword and shield stepped forward and defeated the darkness."
Sonia turned around and continued, "But as time passed, the truth of the legend became unknown, and multiple versions appeared. The portrait recorded in the treasure house of Quanguan City showed that there were two heroes in the legend, who were princes of the Galar royal family; some people said that the heroes were actually two Pokémon; and the widely circulated statue built in Gongmen City showed that there was only one hero..."
"We invited you two here this time," Sonia's eyes flickered, "to investigate the truth of Galar's mythology and find out who is the true Sword and Shield Hero!"
Lu Ye really wanted to answer quickly, it was Cang Xiang and Zang Marant!
But the memorial ball at the side of his waist shook, and a beam of red light flew out.
The onion soldier held a green onion and a green onion shield, with thick eyebrows and big eyes, looking up at the statue with a calm expression: "Ga..."
Why do I feel that the weapon in this statue's hand is a bit familiar~
“Don’t interrupt someone’s explanation…”
Lu Ye reluctantly took back the green onion soldiers, nodded to Sonia, and said, "Please continue."
"Anyway," Sonia said with a smile, "The legend of the 'King of Sword and Shield' is waiting for you two to explore together!"
King of Sword and Shield...
Lu Ye's heart moved slightly.
The King of Swords I can understand is Cang Xiang.
I can also understand the King of Shield, it is Zangmarant.
But the King of Sword and Shield... Could it be the Shield Blade Monster!
The plot line has deviated slightly from what I am familiar with.
Lu Ye's eyes flickered slightly.
But the time for the truth to be revealed should not be far away.
"Then please go to bed early."
Sonia moved her fingers and smiled, "We will set out for Caolu Town tomorrow morning to investigate the local murals!"
Lu Ye nodded slightly, immersed in thought, and subconsciously followed Sirona to the elevator.
Suddenly, Teacher Lu realized a problem.
Lu Ye: "It's a room, right?"
Sirona glanced sideways: "What else."
"Then I'll put the Pokémon into the Poké Ball, and transfer the Onion Soldier to Zhenghui's computer, so that it won't run out by itself..."
"Ga! (????)σ" The commemorative ball shook.
This is a children's animation, so at least be a little more tactful!
It’s only ten o’clock. It’s impossible to go to bed so early.
After checking into the luxurious suite, Lu Ye studied the official matching software of the World Championship for a while.
This software will automatically match trainers with nearby "equally matched" opponents.
There are two options, 'Qualifying' and 'Points'.
Qualifying matches are bound to involve promotion and demotion and can only be conducted between players at the same level.
The points race will take into account the level difference between the two teams, awarding or deducting points as appropriate, and allowing cross-level competition.
For the top 100 senior players in the world, choosing the points tournament might result in them being matched with super-level players, which is obviously not cost-effective.
After all, winning ten games is not enough to make up for one loss.
But for Teacher Lu... no matter how small a mosquito is, it is still meat.
There was no one in the qualifying round.
Why not try the points competition and experience the excellent matching mechanism of the World Championship.
Lu Ye stared quietly at the rotating radar chart on the phone screen, and suddenly a "match successful" button popped up.
"Beep... Match successful, Lotor!"
"How many people are there on the other side?"
"Super ball level, 260th place, Loto!"
"How many are we?"
"Advanced ball level, 98th place, Loto!"
"Hit him... Wait, who is the opponent?"
"Beep beep... Spike Town, evil trainer, Marie, Lotor!"
Chapter 824: Want to be Miss Mary's Caller
The night was azure blue, and a gentle breeze blew across the backyard pond, reflecting the magnificent Mimosa Hotel on the water's surface.
There is a professional battle field in the backyard, which is provided for hotel guests to fight Pokémon, and there are also energy points for "Gigantamaxing" underground.
Energy points are required to "Gigantamax", so Dantei's battles are rarely held outside of Galar - even though this guy's Charizard is also at the "Fighting Legend" level under normal circumstances.
The venue facilities are perfect and complete, which shows the luxury of the Xiubao Hotel.
It is said that this hotel was first opened by a Mimosa lover, who used "Mimosa" as the name of the hotel, and gradually developed it into a high-end chain hotel.
Teacher Lu was very puzzled—how could a Pokémon like Mimosa have fans?!
Now that I see, it turns out that Mimosa has so many fans... That's fine.
The marble fountain gurgled with clear water at night. A black-haired girl stood beside the fountain, pulling her short hair by her ears and fiddling with her mobile phone with her head down.
She wore a black riveted jacket with a pink dress underneath, two white legs under the short skirt, and riveted boots. Her short black hair had bangs on one side and stubble on the other side, making her look like both a rock musician and an energetic idol, very cute.
Mary stared at the phone screen with her green eyes, and breathed a sigh of relief when she saw the words "match successful".
Before challenging Gym Master Kawu tomorrow, we can have a training match first.
But... Mary blinked. Is the opponent a high-level player
Advanced ball level, accepted the challenge of super ball level
Mary's eyes narrowed and she clenched her hands quietly. She couldn't miss this opportunity. Even if she lost the game, it would still be a valuable learning experience!
"Come on, Miss Mary!"
"We will always stand behind you and cheer for you!"
Loud cheers floated in the night. Mary looked back and saw three members of the cheering team holding up banners and loudspeakers, attracting a lot of attention.
The Shouting Team is a folk organization that emerged from Jianding Town.
The purpose is simple: to shout for Miss Mary.
As long as you are a fan of Miss Mary, you are a loyal member of our cheering team!
Mary turned her back to the cheering fans, grabbed the hem of her skirt, her cheeks slightly hot in the night, and touched her chest with her hands... Although it was sometimes troubled, Mary always felt at ease with the cheering team around.
After all, Marie's eyes were sparkling. I have the mission of revitalizing my hometown, Spike Town, and everyone's expectations. I will definitely become a famous trainer!
