Pokémon: Hoenen Rage

Chapter 221: Temptation in the Ceremony (16) (Additional update today)
After leaving the boxing gym, Lai quickly returned to the hotel, released the long-awaited Nian Meilong and Natural Bird, and began to try to use the method of sensing Qi last night to assist him in meditation.

After mastering the Canghai meditation method, Lai deeply realized that this meditation method fit him, but he was unable to mobilize his now too huge spirit.

Now, with the help of Nian Meilong and Natural Bird, everything falls into place.

With the support of huge foreign aid, spiritual power began to flow rapidly. Soon, the planned route of the Canghai Meditation Method was completed. A steady stream of spiritual power began to be generated in Lai's mind. The speed was faster than Lai's own wild path. At least [-] to [-]% faster.

However, it is worth noting that most of the qi generated in this way will be absorbed by the Nianmei Dragon and the Natural Bird and turned into nutrients for them to strengthen their bodies. Less than one tenth of it will remain in Lai's body. Compared with Lai's own Meditation methods are just about the same. It would be unrealistic to expect them to strengthen the body or act as a source of heart power for oneself, at least for a while.

However, Lai doesn't care at all about such problems. He can use Qi wherever he can, and it can be absorbed by his partners. In his opinion, it is even better than using it by himself. After all, the one who really needs to fight is not himself, but They are beautiful dragons and natural finches.

Compared to the Swampert and the Big-billed Gull, the physical enhancements of these two little guys are much inferior. They are not as good as Marilu, who has outstanding physical talent and the characteristics of a strong man.Now, although the total amount of Qi is not much, it is a useful supplement to them.

After confirming the effectiveness of the meditation method and mastering the specific practice method, Lai just tried it briefly. He was a little tired after a day of meditation without being able to do it.

Naqi saw the tired look on Lai's eyebrows, and took the initiative to take over the task of taking care of their Pokémon, letting him rest early.

After a while, Lai was the only one left in the room.

Lying on the soft big bed, Lai reviewed the more than a week since arriving in Wudou Town and made plans for the future.

Although the days are short, the harvest is indeed not small. After leaving, taking a merchant ship is just the right time to settle down.

After that, when you reach Chenghua City and challenge the gym, you can go all the way north, pass through Karnaz City, then pass through Meteor Falls, go straight to the northwest end of Hoenn, and go to the sea to the northwest islands.

Along the way, there should be no delays in training, exchanges, and gymnasiums. It’s just a pity that we can’t specifically inspect the deserted waterway from the northwest islands to the southwest sea. It is said that there are many wild Pokémon and those who are forced to make a living there. pirate.

As he thought about it, sleepiness crept over him, making Lai's mind groggy.

At some point, he naturally fell asleep.

······
On the seventh day after arriving in Wudou Town, Lai put on his formal clothes that he had not seen for a long time. Accompanied by the beautifully dressed Naqi, Lai came to the boxing gym to participate in a ceremony that was somewhat hasty but still large-scale.Many people nearby also came to watch and gathered around the gym.

For Lai, an outstanding young trainer who is particularly famous in the southwest region, everyone from the boxing gym to the martial arts town alliance branch seems to attach great importance to it. Almost all the cadres who had a relationship with each other during the original suppression of bandits They all came to the scene, on the one hand to congratulate Kiyooka and the boxing gym, and on the other hand, they also had a relationship with Laila La, who had just defeated Fujishu head-on.

Whether it is Lai or Naqi, they are both very good at handling such occasions. Although they don't like it, they can still handle it.

After a long period of politeness and official talk, seeing that the atmosphere was almost heightened, Teng Shu, as the actual person in charge of the gym, came on stage and announced the start of the ceremony.

Compared with the occasion where the ceremony was held, the specific ceremony itself is very simple. The owner of the museum, Iwasaki Kiyooka, gave a speech, and then Lai went to the stage to conduct the apprenticeship ceremony, and then took a group photo to publish in the newspaper. Everything has a fixed process, just like countless times before. It is the same as every gym in the Hoenn area.

After the ceremony, there were less nutritious gatherings and relationships. In the polite and slightly distant response, Lai could always sense the vague voyeurism and malicious presence behind him. There was no specific source for this, and the power of the heart did not detect it. That "peeper", but the intuition brought by the powerful mental power told him so.

At noon, the long ceremony was coming to an end. Lai and Naqi had some leisure time, sitting side by side on the outside to rest, watching the celebrities in the center of the venue who were still not tired, and as the host, going back and forth. Stopped vine trees and clear hills.At this time, an old voice came: "Mr. Lai, can we chat for a few words?"

Lai turned his head and saw a well-dressed old man in his fifties with a kind smile sitting on a seat one or two meters away from him.

Feeling Lai's gaze, he smiled and said hello: "Hello, I'm Eiyuki Morita. Maybe you haven't heard of me. In recent years, I have rarely participated in such activities."

Eiyuki Morita.

This name instantly evoked Lai's memory not long ago. This person is the only Heavenly King-level powerhouse other than him in Wudou Town that Master Qinggang said, and the special advisor for the southwest region of the alliance.

"Hello, Lord Morita, it's my first pleasure to meet you."

For such a strong man, Lai maintained enough respect and bowed slightly.

Naqi, who was closing her eyes and concentrating, turned her head in surprise and bowed to show respect.

"The King of Heaven is just a false name. Besides, compared to the Four Heavenly Kings of the Alliance, I'm still a long way away. I just barely call it that. Young talents like you have a much farther road ahead than me. Every time I see You guys, I feel a lot younger too.”

Eiyuki Morita's tone, demeanor, and movements are all impeccable, just like a teacher with a gentle personality, but the two Poké Balls vibrating around his waist and Rai's constant flash of disgust indicate that this person is not simple. .

After some formalities, Lai's heart power has checked him out. In his shadow, there are two powerful Pokémon hidden, Geng Ghost and Dream Demon. Geng Ghost barely broke through level 60. The demon is stuck at level 58 and looks quite old. Gengar also said that the dream demon shouldn't have much room for improvement.

Eiyuki Morita, who originally had some intention of wooing him, gave up this plan after feeling the slightly dangerous look from Iwasaki Kiyooka, but he felt a little regretful in his heart.

If he had known that this young man was not an arrogant person, he could have made plans earlier. Unfortunately, under the guidance of Shui Wutong, he took one step at a time.Unconsciously, the old man's dislike for Shui Wutong worsened by three points.

"I'm very happy to be able to chat with you young people for so long. This is my business card and contact information. Although I will retire in a few years, I am always available if I encounter any problems in the southwest sea area. Contact me. Being able to witness and help the growth of young people like you is my greatest achievement as a dying old man."

Standing up and nodding, Morita Eiyuki slowly left.

After he left, Iwasaki Kiyooka also looked away and continued to greet and compliment the people around him.

Finally, the event was over. After greeting the gym, the two hurried back to the hotel and finally took a short rest.

After a slight adjustment, Naqi came to the door. She and Lai had exactly the same idea. The first words she said after closing the door were:

"There is something wrong with Morita Eiyuki."
