Not a trainer this time.

Chapter 337 Adek’s Gratitude

Adek looked at the young man opposite, suppressed the hope and excitement in his heart, and asked politely:

"Excuse me, is this Zhishu Ranch?"

Naoki came back to his senses and thought that Dan Emperor was quite fast. He nodded and said, "Hello, Mr. Adek."

"You know me?" Adek was slightly stunned.

Naoki didn't say he didn't know him, "The champion of the Hezhong region is very famous even in other places."

Adek blushed. He had a profound self-awareness of himself... Although he was the champion, his fame was limited to the Hezhu area. How could it spread to a place as far away as Padia?

What's more, he left the Pokémon League during that time and didn't care about worldly affairs...

Could it be that the trainer named Naoki mentioned by Dan Emperor is his fan?

Otherwise, how could he know his situation so well and still try to contact him through Dan Emperor to help?

Apart from this reason, Adek could not think of any other reason.

Naoki didn't know what Adek was thinking. He thought about the injured Vulcan moth, and then said to Adek:

“Let’s talk after we come in first!”

Looking at this scene, Adek's eyes were sore.

Adek nodded, and he nervously clenched the strap of the backpack behind him, looking forward to but also afraid of what would happen next.

There was sadness in his tone: "Can the Vulcan moth... be able to fly again?"

After thinking for a moment, he turned to look at King Lei Guan behind him.

For a moment, it was like the God of Fire had arrived.

Adek always thought that this kind of life would last forever, but the end always came suddenly...

Under Adek's dull gaze, Vulcan Moth's eyes gradually regained their vitality.

Looking at this scene, Adek suddenly felt the urge to cry.

Looking at the bottle of milky white liquid that exuded a sweet smell, Adek immediately understood what it was.

The staff of the United League told him on the phone that Mr. Dandi, the champion of the Galar region, wanted to see him for something.

In confusion, Adek dialed the number left by Emperor Dan.

Fire Moth was the first Pokémon that connected with him. They have been fighting together and enjoying good times together.

Naoki reached out and took it and took a look, but he couldn't understand it at all.

With a flash of white light, a large moth Pokémon with a size of over 1.6 meters and a pair of blue eyes appeared in the living room.

When the Vulcan Moth drank the last drop of goat milk into its stomach, a magical scene happened the next second.

When the white light dissipated, the Vulcan Moth fell to the ground again.

This is...a bottle of milk?

Adek was stunned, but he did not stop moving his hands and fed the bottle of fresh milk to Vulcan Moth.

At that time, Adek was very confused. He and the Alchemy Emperor were strangers to each other. They had only heard each other's names. What did the other party want from him?

Naoki shook his head, he couldn't guarantee it: "Let's give it a try!"

"it is good!"

Although it is a moth Pokémon, Vulcan Moth looks very handsome. It has a pair of red antennae on its cheeks, a circle of white fluff around its upper body, and three pairs of orange-red wings on its back.

With that said, Naoki handed a bottle of Life Goat Milk to Adek, "Feed it to your Vulcan Moth and drink it."

A milky white light suddenly erupted from the Vulcan Moth, and the light enveloped its body.

The surrounding space is heating up, and the six pairs of wings behind the Vulcan Moth bloom like flames, emitting a fiery red brilliance.

"These are the diagnoses issued by the Pokémon Center for Vulcan Moth's physical condition. It says that Vulcan Moth's injuries are very serious and cannot be cured with current medical technology."

Adek looked at this scene in disbelief and asked uncertainly: "Okay... okay?"

"Oh!" Adek quickly took out a red and white ball from his bag.

Adek's face was full of astonishment. He had many questions in his mind, but in order to save his friends, he didn't ask any more questions. After hanging up the phone, he immediately set off for the Padia area.

Adek sniffed uselessly, resisting the urge to cry, and knelt down to gently caress his old partner.

Although its spirit is still a little sluggish and its body seems weak, its condition is obviously much better than before!

He hoped that the rancher could really heal the Vulcan Moth's hidden wounds, but he was also afraid that his hope would be dashed and that the Vulcan Moth would continue to lose its life.

During that phone call, Dandi told him a way to save the Fire God Moth and asked him to go to the Padia region, a place called Naoki Ranch.

Following the other party, Adek remembered what happened not long ago.

Those three pairs of wings should have been shining hot like blazing flames, but now they looked so dull, and even the pair of blue eyes had lost their color.

After thinking for a while, Naoki asked his younger sister, the caretaker, to get the goat milk of life, and then said to Adek: "Can you release the Vulcan Moth so I can take a look?"

Naoki didn't know either, because although the current life goat's milk seemed to have an exaggerated effect, it was still some distance away from the real Ho-Oh Holy Ash.

At that time, while he was wandering around the Unova area, he suddenly received a call from the Unova Alliance.

The Vulcan Moth is recovering!

But looking at the style of the medical certificate, he roughly guessed that Adek's Vulcan Moth must have been damaged at the root of his body and had multiple hidden injuries.

The Vulcan Moth was weak and lay weakly on the floor. It didn't even have enough strength to fly.

The two entered the living room. Adek glanced at King Leicester, then looked away from him, then took off his backpack, took out the Vulcan Moth's inspection report and handed it over.

King Lei Guan was also attracted by the scene here.

Naoki asked: "King Lei Guan, can you help me take a look at the physical condition of this Pokémon?"

King Lei Guan nodded slightly.

He slowly floated over under Adek's astonished gaze, and then used his telekinesis to carefully examine the situation of the Vulcan Moth.

He could feel the man's emotions towards the fire god moth, and King Lei Guan was slightly moved in his heart. In this situation, he was happy to help them.

Therefore, facing the Vulcan Moth lying on the ground, King Lei Guan gently raised his hand and swayed a lot of soft blue light.

Those blue lights eventually converged into a crystal clear blue water droplet, slowly dripping from mid-air onto the Vulcan Moth.

"That's the drop of life, right?" This was the first time Naoki had seen this move.

The drops of life healed the Vulcan Moth's hidden wounds, and the Vulcan Moth finally fully recovered to its healthy state.

It flapped its wings energetically and floated.

There were already tears in Adek's eyes.

This tall and vicissitudes of man didn't say a word, he stepped forward and hugged his Pokémon partner tightly.

The Vulcan Moth's eyes curved into crescents, and it happily grabbed its trainer with its little feet in front of it, and adjusted its body temperature to a temperature suitable for humans, acting as a large furry and warm pillow for Adai. Ke holds. Seeing this scene, Naoki and Lei Guanwang looked at each other and smiled, then turned and sat back on the sofa.

After a long time, Adek sniffed heavily, adjusted his state again, and then sat back on the sofa, his dark face flushed.

"Sorry for making you laugh!"

Naoki smiled, but he didn't expect Adek to have such a side: "It's just a little effort, as long as Vulcan Moth is fine."

To him it was just a bottle of goat's milk, but to Adek it meant a lot.

Seeing his expression, Adek looked extremely serious:

"No matter what, I, Adek, owe you a favor."

Adek frowned: "If it weren't for you, I think after a while, I would have lost the Vulcan Moth forever. After living with it for many years, I can feel that its life has come to an end..."

To be honest, Adek was already prepared for that day to come - to face the death of the Vulcan Moth and bury it in the Tower of Heaven in the Hezhu area.

Naoki blinked, looked at Adek in front of him, and said meaningfully: "I feel like you have changed a lot."

"Has it changed?" Adek was slightly startled, and then said with relief: "Maybe!"

Adek spoke slowly, as if he had some realization:

"Trainers are working hard every day to reach the championship position that represents the strongest strength, but championship is only a necessary path in life, but it is not the end."

"What happened to the Vulcan Moth made me understand the greatness and impermanence of life... Nothing powerful is permanent."

Adek smiled bitterly: "When I learned that Vulcan Moth's injury could not be cured by current medical standards, I was very sad... Because of this, I discovered how great the joy of getting along with Pokémon is. "

"Yes!" Naoki agreed.

Whether you are becoming a trainer or doing other things, the most important thing is never the battle or getting stronger, but the Pokémon itself.

Then, Naoki chatted a lot with Adek.

He learned from Adek that the affairs of the Unova Alliance are now handled by the Four Heavenly Kings, and that the Unova Alliance is currently cooperating with the Padian Alliance to build Blueberry Academy.

Adek said that some gym leaders in the Hezhong area are planning to send their grandchildren to Blueberry Academy to study.

During the chat, Adek's state and mood slowly recovered.

Under normal circumstances, Adek has a very approachable personality, relaxed and contented, cheerful and humble, without the airs of a champion at all.

Naoki thought it was quite interesting.

Somehow, Adek seemed to regard him as a fan and wanted to give him a bunch of signed Poké Balls...

"Hahahaha!"

Adek felt that Naoki's attitude towards Pokémon was very appealing to him. He asked Naoki for a pen, then took out the elf ball from his backpack and started to sign it.

"Just give these insignificant little gifts to you as decorations!" Adek said.

Naoki: "?"

He quickly realized that he was looking for Adek to help him through Dan Di, and Adek regarded him as a fan!

yes! Who would do such a thing if they weren’t a fan!

From Adek's perspective, he may be a fan who admires him very much.

As a fan, he always paid attention to Adek. When he learned that Adek's main Pokémon, Fire Moth, was seriously injured, he immediately tried every means to find Yeci, found Adek through Dandi, and provided him with treatment.

"..."

Naoki didn't know what to say for a moment.

He is not a fan of Adek!

Adek was very moved. He placed the pile of Poké Balls on the coffee table, patted Naoki on the shoulder very proudly, and said to Naoki:

"If you need any help in the future, feel free to come to me! Adek will definitely come over as soon as possible!"

Naoki: "..."

He swallowed the words of explanation silently, because apart from this reason, Naoki didn't know how to explain to Adek that he knew him and knew that Vulcan Moth was seriously injured.

However, Adek still felt that he was still unsatisfied: "Is there anything you want? I will definitely help you get it if I can!"

"No." Naoki shook his head.

Speaking of the Hezhong area... what concerned him more was the three-headed dragon.

Zekrom, Leshiram, Kyurem.

But even though Adek is the champion, he probably doesn’t know the news about these three legendary Pokémon.

At this time, Adek's eyes suddenly caught sight of the newspaper that Naoki had placed on the table.

He asked somewhat unexpectedly: "Are you very interested in this Rotom Technology Company?"

"It doesn't count!" Naoki was stunned, and it took him a while to realize what Adek was talking about.

He said truthfully: "I just have an idea about the communicator that I want to share with them."

"Oh? Communicator? Is it the kind of video phone?" Although Adek was not interested, Naoki was interested, so he had to ask a few more questions, maybe he could be of some help?

Seeing Adek's curiosity, Naoki thought about it and felt that it was not impossible to talk about it.

Therefore, he took the pen that Adek used to sign and drew a smartphone on a piece of paper.

"I'm thinking, can we integrate video phones and computer networks? Make a small smart communicator like this, and then equip it with the function of the Pokémon Pokédex. It is very portable and everyone can carry it. Once you get one, you can contact others at any time.”

Adek thought, isn't this the Pokémon Pokédex for the Unova region?

Some trainers in the Hezhong area will get Pokémon illustrations from local doctors when they go out. The illustrations are equipped with communication functions, so they can contact the doctors at any time.

Adek didn't understand it, but he could help.

"I don't understand these things either, but I have a way for you to meet the boss of Rotom Technology Company!" Adek said.

"Ok?"

Adek grinned and said: "The Hezhong area will hold a banquet soon. The banquet will invite famous rich people, entrepreneurs and powerful trainers from all over the world. According to previous years' practice, Rotom Technology Company's The boss will also be there.”

"He and I must have known each other!" Adek recalled carefully and said, "I went there a few years ago, and his little daughter liked Pokémon battles very much."

"Every time at the banquet, she would wear a small skirt and challenge the trainers, gym leaders and kings present. I also fought against that little girl!"

Hearing this, Naoki was stunned.

Could this little girl be referring to Nemo?

Adek looked at him: "Just in time, I will issue an invitation to you in my name, invite you to the dinner party, and introduce you to that guy."

Although Adek didn't know Naoki before, the young man in front of him not only knew Dandi, but also had so many powerful Pokémon around him.

The champion's intuition told Adek that the scarlet muscle Pokémon in the living room and the Pokémon that had just used life drops to cure Vulcan Moth must be extremely powerful.

He was qualified to attend that dinner.
