Chapter 6 Lottery and Warcraft Device

"Our territory was attacked by a beast swarm a few days ago. Although we successfully resisted the beast swarm thanks to everyone's joint efforts, many houses were still damaged, so you need to cut down some trees and come back to repair the houses."

Ryan pointed to several carts parked nearby.

"There are logging tools on the cart, and each person pushes one. I will go with you this time."

"Uncle White, please lead them to the gate of the city, and I will bring the Flying Mantis over here."

At this time, White also knew what Ryan said was the solution to the shortage of wood, but were these distinguished visitors from the God Realm really willing to do the hard work of logging?
As soon as he was about to ask Ryan, he saw these visitors from the God Realm lifting the cart with excitement, and they couldn't wait to set off.

White immediately dismissed the idea of ​​asking. It seems that a mortal like himself still can't understand the thoughts of people in the God Realm, and he should listen to Master Ryan in the future.

Ryan also saw the actions of the players, and couldn't help feeling a little funny, but he could also understand that he was also very excited when he played the game and did the task, not to mention that in their eyes, this was still a virtual reality game.

"Okay, let's go, let's meet at the gate of the city."

"understand!"

The players lifted up the carts in a hurry and followed White away.

After watching the players leave, Ryan didn't rush to find the Flying Mantis. Instead, he went to the study room first, where he planned to draw a prize first.

A total of six lottery opportunities were awarded in the previous two main missions, but Ryan has never used them once.

He and the players are going to enter the Firefly Forest this time, and there are many Pokémon in it. They don't have a good relationship with humans now, and there may even be Pokémon that hate humans.

Although there are guards from the Flying Mantis, just in case, Ryan still wants to try the lottery to see if he can draw some good things that can be used.

"Let's test the water first, Buddha Bao. No, it seems that there is no Buddha in this world. God Arceus bless me once I get into the soul! Let me out!"

【Congratulations on getting the Poké Ball × 3】

"Elf ball?" Ryan looked at the classic red and white ball in his hand and didn't know whether he should be happy or not.

Let's be happy, this is just the most basic Pokeball in Pokémon games and anime, and it is indeed a bit far from his expectations.

Even if you say you're unhappy, that's not a big deal. After all, this is an epoch-making invention in the Pokémon world, completely replacing the existing Warcraft device.

"Why only give three? By the way, can this thing be made by yourself? I remember it seems to be made of cones."

But Ryan just thought about it, not to mention that he didn't know how to make poke balls at all, even if he knew, he wouldn't dare to make them on a large scale.

His current strength is still very weak, and he still understands the truth of "a tree is more beautiful than a forest, but the wind will destroy it".

"The strength is still too weak. There are too many things to worry about. Forget it, let's not think about it for now. Let's continue to draw the lottery, and just come to a wave of five consecutive draws!"

【恭喜您抽到除虫喷雾×1、微型经验糖果×5、甜甜蜜×3、精灵球×3、黏丸×5】

The usage of these items is shown on the panel, which is somewhat different from that in the game anime.

Not much to say about the Poké Ball. In the game, the insect repellent spray seems to prevent the player from encountering weak wild Pokémon within a few steps, but the one he drew needs to be sprayed manually to drive away Pokémon Dream.

The function of the miniature experience candy is the same as that of the experience candy in the game. It is used to improve the level of Pokémon, but the name is different, and it does not show how much experience value is increased.

Sweetness is used to attract wild Pokémon, while sticky balls need to be thrown out to restrict their movement after hitting Pokémon.

Ryan looked at the few items placed in front of him, and still felt a little bit of a gap in his heart.

He originally thought that ordinary task rewards were basic things, such as Pokémon food and wound medicine, so the good things must be in the lottery.

As a result, although the items drawn were very useful, they still did not meet his psychological expectations.

As if aware of Ryan's thoughts, after drawing the prize, a line of text suddenly appeared on the panel:
[This lottery draw is a primary lottery draw. After completing certain tasks, you can unlock higher-level lottery chances. 】

"Huh? There are more advanced lottery draws? What can you draw? Can you unlock it by completing a few tasks?"

Ryan asked excitedly, but there was no response from the panel.

"Tsk, I thought you could communicate like other people's golden fingers. It seems that this text is pre-set, and it will automatically appear after the first prize draw, right?"

Although the panel failed to answer Ryan's question, his mood has improved a lot. No matter how many tasks need to be completed, at least he has something to look forward to.

"I don't want to think about it, let's bring the Flying Mantis to join the players first."

Ryan put away the drawn items and got up to find the Flying Mantis.

When he arrived at the lounge, he found that Flying Mantis was in much better condition than yesterday. He was no longer as depressed and decadent as before, and his eyes were full of fighting spirit.

"It seems that you have really cheered up, not bad! This is the flying mantis that never gives up in my impression. Can you still fight now?"

"Hey!" Flying Mantis raised his sickle-like arms to show that there was no problem.

"Okay! But before we go, there is one more thing to do."

Ryan took out the elf ball and said to Flying Mantis:
"No matter what happens in a while, don't resist, just trust me, okay?"

Although Flying Mantis was a little puzzled, he still nodded.

After getting the consent of the flying mantis, Ryan gently threw the elf ball to it.

With the opening of the poke ball, the flying mantis turned into a burst of red energy and was sucked into it, and the magic beast device on its body also fell off.

The elf ball landed on the ground and shook left and right, then made a "ding~" sound.

"Yes! I have conquered the flying mantis!" Ryan picked up the elf ball and made a pose.

Don't mention it. Although these words and actions are a bit shameful, they are indeed touching and fulfill one of Ryan's dreams.

"Ahem, come out, Flying Mantis."

Ryan looked around guiltily, and after confirming that no one saw what he looked like just now, he released the Flying Mantis.

"Eh?!"

As soon as the Flying Mantis was released, he looked at the Poke Ball in Ryan's hand with confusion.

It doesn't understand how the ball is so small, how it can be kept inside, and it's quite comfortable inside.

"This is the elf ball. You can go in and rest at any time in the future, and you don't need to bring the magic beast device."

Only then did the Flying Mantis see the World of Warcraft device that had fallen to the ground. It hesitated for a moment, but still hooked up the World of Warcraft device and motioned for Ryan to put it on.

In fact, based on the mutual trust between Flying Mantis and Ryan's father, they no longer need the Warcraft device between them.

The reason why I still wear it all the time is just to reassure the citizens.

But Ryan has made up his mind to change the relationship between humans and Pokémon. This Warcraft device is the product of mutual distrust between humans and Pokémon.

Human beings will select young Pokémon and build them tailor-made Warcraft devices. Once the Pokémon disobeys orders, the Warcraft devices will release various punishment methods such as electric shocks or acupuncture.

After experiencing multiple punishments, Pokémon will form a psychological shadow. Even if their abilities become stronger when they grow up, they will not dare to break away from the device and will still obey human orders.

Ryan really can't accept such a monster device. As long as this thing exists, the relationship between humans and Pokémon cannot be improved.

He wasn't worried that others would doubt him because he didn't wear a magic beast device.

Although using Warcraft devices to control Pokémon is the mainstream, there are still many people who are unwilling or unable to use Warcraft devices.

Seeing Ryan's resolute refusal to wear the Warcraft device on it, Flying Mantis didn't insist anymore. It also felt that it was uncomfortable to wear, and it couldn't fully exert its strength.

"I remember that there were wooden pokeballs in ancient times in the Legend of Arceus game. Could it be that the era I live in is older than that? Or is it a parallel world?"

"Forget it, it's useless to think so much. Let's go, Flying Mantis, come with me to meet those lovely players."

"Wow!"
