Chapter 122: First Meeting With Lilia
The woman in the poster is very similar to Reta, both are human leaders who appeared at the end of the disaster, but compared to Reta, Lilia’s charisma might be stronger.
Reta is a poor boy who suddenly rose to prominence, while Lilia had already deeply rooted her powerful image in people’s hearts before the disaster. If it weren’t for being completely wiped out by Buzwell in the end, Alsteria might have gone further in the apocalypse.
After returning from the Martial World, Zuo Hang had thought that in the Dead World footage, if he defeated the final wave of Ultra Beasts, extending the world’s survival time.
Then… how would the subsequent development of this world that should have died be.
The world Zuo Hang is now in is one that has already gone extinct, with no future. From his experience on Martial Fighting Star, he should be able to change historically determined events.
After defeating Ronan on Martial Fighting Star, Zuo Hang was immediately sent back to the historical segment before Reta participated in the Deathmatch, which is very likely the reason why the world could not derive subsequent history.
Martial Fighting Star didn’t work, but what if it was Alsteria?
The self-derivation ability of an SSS-level world should be much stronger than that of an A+ level.
Zuo Hang speculated in his heart like this.
Li Dong signed up for the Electric-type Pokémon Master Cup three days later, and the preliminary round location is right in S City.
The original Li Dong only had one Pokémon, Pikachu, and had no opportunity to participate in other competitions. Only the 1v1 battle Master Cup was his chance to turn things around.
“Dong~dong~” In the night, a small bird lightly knocked twice on the window beside Zuo Hang. Moving his gaze, outside the window was a Pidgey holding a package in its beak.
“Does this world also use Pidgey to deliver express?” Zuo Hang thought to himself. He opened the window, and Pidgey placed the package it was holding in its beak into his hand, then let out a “bibi” cry, flapping its wings, as if urging.
“Need to sign for it, right?” Zuo Hang asked.
“bibi~~” Pidgey nodded. As a qualified delivery worker, it must watch the buyer sign for it to consider the job done.
Zuo Hang grabbed a pen from Li Dong’s desk and subconsciously wrote “Zuo Hang” in the signature spot. He froze for half a second, then crossed out his name and wrote “Li Dong”.
This was completely a subconscious reaction. Even though Zuo Hang consciously wanted to write “Li Dong”, after holding the pen, he still wrote his own.
Zuo Hang frowned and casually tore off the signature label.
“bi!” Pidgey looked at Zuo Hang very unfriendly.
“Pika!” The Electric Mouse bared its teeth at Pidgey, with electric arcs lighting up on its cheeks.
“bibi” Pidgey immediately retreated.
He had a lot of experience with this kind of thing. As a delivery worker, encountering five or six rude customers a day was very normal.
If one wanted to do this job for a long time, having good judgment was very necessary. Pidgey immediately retracted its aggressive gaze and bowed slightly toward Zuo Hang, as if bowing.
“bibi~~（ Xifeng Express serves you with integrity, remember to give five-star reviews oh~）”
After saying that, Pidgey flew out the window without waiting for Zuo Hang’s reply.
“Xifeng? Good thing it’s Xifeng.” Zuo Hang looked at the express box in his hand and said.
There was no shipping address written on the package, and this package didn’t seem to be something Li Dong ordered either.
Zuo Hang puzzledly opened the package.
Inside the package was only one thing—the Master Cup admission ticket.
There was a QR code on the admission ticket. Zuo Hang picked up Li Dong’s mobile phone from the table and scanned it.
【Special Notice: S City detected an unknown spatial tremor yesterday. The Pokémon Master Cup originally scheduled to be held in S City has been changed to Qingniao City, and the original start time has been extended by two days. Please adjust your schedule as soon as possible if you received the admission ticket】
“Spatial tremor?”
When entering this world, Zuo Hang didn’t see the time when the world extinction began, but from the experience of the previous two Secret Realm Explorations, the time when the Observer enters the Secret Realm should be just a few days before the extinction starts, or right after the extinction officially begins.
After receiving this invitation, Zuo Hang started searching on his mobile phone for records about “spatial tremor”.
He didn’t know until he searched; one search scared him. There were actually over 50,000 entries for spatial tremor.
The first spatial tremor in Alsteria appeared in year 214. Zuo Hang didn’t know how many years in reality Alsteria’s year 214 corresponded to, but Alsteria is now year 504. From the appearance of the spatial tremor to now, nearly three hundred years have passed in this world.
This differed somewhat from the intelligence Zuo Hang learned when he first entered the Secret Realm.
According to Aether’s records, Alsteria survived for two thousand hours under the attack of Ultra Beasts. He didn’t know exactly how this time was calculated—whether from the initial probing, from the total attack, what event marked the start of the Beast invasion, or what event was the Beasts’ total assault. Zuo Hang felt he should first go learn some history.
Li Dong dropped out of school and stayed home, with all his textbooks at home, including history.
Zuo Hang had always been resistant to textbooks. He felt they unnecessarily expanded knowledge that could be explained in a few sentences into a verbose book, but textbooks had their advantages. For a novice like Zuo Hang who knew nothing about this world’s history, starting with a textbook was very suitable.
Zuo Hang pulled out the dusty textbook from Li Dong’s cabinet and began reading this world’s history.
The Electric Mouse stood on the desk. It had also fused with the original Li Dong Pikachu’s memories and could understand the writing in this world.
This made Pikachu feel a bit ashamed, feeling surpassed by someone else’s Pokémon.
Once Zuo Hang started reading, his attention would become focused, even if it was a rather boring textbook.
The Electric Mouse was also looking with Zuo Hang, but although it inherited Li Dong Electric Mouse’s ability to read, it wasn’t essentially an electric mouse that liked reading books. In less than ten minutes, Pikachu felt the words in the book overlapping chaotically before its eyes, like being hit by Hypnosis.
Twenty minutes later, Pikachu’s eyelids were gradually getting heavy.
The dull history was really too boring to read.
The Electric Mouse soon fell asleep on the table.
Five days before the Master Cup started, Zuo Hang first bought a train ticket to Qingniao City, bringing some stamina recovery potions available on the market in his backpack, as well as three high school history textbooks.
Although the Electric Mouse fell asleep as soon as it saw a book, following a Trainer who liked reading would influence it over time. Even though it only glanced a couple times each time, glancing more would still teach it something.
In Alsteria, seven attributes were very popular.
Namely Electric-type, Fire-type, Dark Type, Normal-type, Ice-type, Dragon-type, Fighting Type.
Behind each attribute was an extremely strong Pokémon. Other Pokémon in Alsteria could borrow strength from these seven powerful Pokémon during battles.
But not every Pokémon could communicate with these seven Pokémon.
