I am not a trainer

Cangcheng, Trainers Association.

When President Liang saw the person coming, he nodded and said:

"Luo He, congratulations on reaching the top 32 of the Rookie Championship."

Luo He said politely: "It's just a fluke."

President Liang smiled and said: "This can't be called a fluke, it's strength. You are the only trainer in the top 32 who was born halfway through."

The official background of trainers can be roughly divided into two types: academy stream and dojo stream.

There is also a kind of family inheritance, such as the famous Yulong clan in Donghuang, which is famous for training dragon pets.

Luo He thought to himself, I am not born halfway, but have a top-level inheritance... an inheritance from a forest ranger.

"I called you here this time mainly to let you fill out the form and participate in the 'Rising Star Training Program'."

Chairman Liang said: "This plan is mainly about some welfare policies of Donghuang Alliance for young trainers, including shopping discounts, housing subsidies, etc."

"In the future, if a secret realm suitable for newcomers is found somewhere, a notification will be sent to you, allowing you to enter first."

Don't want this benefit for nothing, Luo He readily accepts it.

After a while, President Liang put away the form, nodded with a smile, and said, "Do you have any other questions?"

"I really do." Luo He questioned, "President Liang, do you know how long the Xuanwu Volcano has existed?"

Chairman Liang thought for a moment and replied:

"In Emperor Wu's time, the Xuanwu Volcano existed, even earlier than when the Yunling Mountains were formed. And the Yunling at that time was just a piece of sea."

Luo He was a little surprised: "Can the sea turn into a plateau?"

"I don't know much." President Liang took a sip of tea and said, "If you are interested in these stories, you might as well go to the Cangcheng Library and look through the county chronicles and ancient maps. more comprehensive."

"Okay, President, I'll go to the library now!"

Seeing Luo He leaving in a hurry, President Liang was slightly taken aback.

I don't know why Luo He cares so much about Xuanwu Volcano.

It's called Xuanwu Volcano, and it's impossible that there really is a Xuanwu volcano inside.

Chairman Liang picked up the tea, took another sip, and couldn't help thinking.

It's almost the same with Xuanwu's descendants.

...

Cangcheng, library.

This library has been around for some years, and the smell of preservatives hits you as soon as you walk in.

In broad daylight, there are not even half readers, just a kind old lady with silver hair drinking tea and reading books by the counter.

The old lady pushed the reading glasses, looked at Luo He in surprise, and said:

"Have you found the wrong place?"

"Hi grandma, I'm here to find a book to read." Luo He said politely.

"Oh, that's good." The old lady smiled, got up and said, "Sit down for a while, I'll pour you a cup of tea."

Luo He declined to no avail, so he had to sit down obediently, and whispered to Xiao Jiu on his shoulder:

"Keep your voice down later, and then thank grandma."

Xiao Jiu stuck out her tongue silently, expressing that she understood.

At this time, a cup with its own saucer floated towards it, and a small black shadow was hidden between the saucer and the cup.

[Pet name: Shadow in the Cup]

[attribute: dark]

[Racial Level: Medium Extraordinary]

[Racial moves: Psychic power, shadow immobilization]

[Explanation: The shadow beast that lives in the tea set will secretly drink good tea. The character is timid, and in order to protect himself, he will use the shadow in the tea to scare the enemy, which is the origin of the allusion "cup bow snake shadow". The evolution chain is Ke Zhong Ke and Ding Zhong Xian. 】

The shadow in the cup used telekinesis to control the teapot to fly up, placed it in front of Luo He, and then quickly floated back to the counter, disguising itself as an ordinary teacup.

"I have bad legs and feet, and I have to ask the beast to bring you tea."

The old lady came slowly, because she was very happy to see the young man, she reached out to pour tea for Luo He.

Luo He got up quickly, and then winked at Xiao Jiu.

"Hmm..."

Xiao Jiu lowered her head obediently, folded her palms together, and bowed to the old grandma.

Thanks for the treat, thank you, Grandma.

The old grandma's eyes lit up, and she laughed cheerfully: "Good boy, you and Shadow in the Cup are both good boys."

Dark pets are often associated with ghosts and skeletons, and are not favored by humans.

But even dark beasts can coexist friendly with humans.

Luo He took a sip of good tea, praised, and asked, "Grandma, where are the books about Yunling's fairy tales?"

"Put it in the historical area." The old lady called out, "Shadow in a Cup?"

The shadow in the cup on the counter released a blue light of thought power, which fell on the ground, like a mission guide, marking the way to the historical area.

"Thank you grandma, I can go there by myself." Luo He said.

"Well, then I won't bother you."

Before returning to the counter, the old lady touched Xiao Jiu's head and smiled contentedly.

Luo He inspected the bookshelves in the library all the way.

Although it looks shabby, there are almost any books in it:

"Postpartum Care of Black Spear Pigs"

"Programming: From Getting Started to Buying an AI Pet"

There are even light novels.

"Reincarnation as a Reed Chicken ~ Keep eating reeds to become stronger!" "

The corner of Luo He's mouth twitched... Does anyone else read this kind of novel?

Tomorrow I will borrow one to go back and have a look.

After wandering around for a long time, Luo He found the book he wanted to read: "Ancient Myths and Origins of Yunling"

Luo He took the book and returned to his seat, opened this ancient book that combined historical materials and mythology, and gradually immersed himself in it.

It is said that six thousand years ago, Emperor Wu led Xuanwu to fight fierce beasts in the sea.

Xuanwu relied on his moves to make the mountain peak rise from the sea and penetrate the fierce beast. The mountain peak was later named "Xuanwu Mountain".

But in the era of Emperor Nong, the benevolent Emperor Nong saw that the ancient battlefield was in a mess, so he turned the sea into a mountain and opened up terraced fields to make it a suitable environment for human habitation.

In the era of the empress, the empress named this place "Yunling", and the people lived and worked in peace and contentment, and Yunling has gradually developed to today.

Sunset dusk.

Luo He recovered from the story, looked at the sunset outside the window, and felt a little shocked.

"The Yunling Mountains were originally a sea, and they are related to the Three Emperors of Donghuang."

Emperor Wu made a contract with Xuanwu, who is not only the ancestor of the trainer, but also the person in charge of military force in the entire history of Donghuang, with thunderous means.

As the ancestor of breeders, Emperor Nong was not only a chef, but also had the ability to move mountains and fill seas. He was kind and loving, and was deeply loved by the people.

Luo He and Xiao Jiu looked at each other, couldn't help feeling longing, and said:

"I don't know if we can reach that level in our lifetime..."

After finishing speaking, Luo He shook his head first, then laughed and said:

"I'm just a cook."

"Besides, Emperor Wudi and Emperor Nong are all mythical characters. How can I have anything to do with them?"

Looking at it this way, the cause of the formation of Xuanwu Volcano is nothing more than Xuanwu's moves, and it is impossible for Xuanwu to really live inside.

Therefore, the real source of the beast horde is definitely the Flame King Lizard.

The next step is to enter the Yunling Mountains with Team Li, subdue the Flame King Lizard, and pick lava peppers.

After reading the book for a day, Luo He felt a little sleepy, yawned and said:

"Xiao Jiu, go home, let's have a good night's rest, and then follow Team Li into the mountains tomorrow."

"Hey~" Xiao Jiu reminded.

"Oh, you're right."

Luo He slapped his forehead: "I will bring a gift to Boss Xiong!"

Imperial Capital, General Investigation Bureau.

The flat-headed man is not angry and pretentious, sitting on the large boss chair, crossing his hands, looking at the screen to talk:

"What's the matter?"

"Director Hu, the beasts in the Yunling Mountains are a little strange."

The half-blood beauty calmly said: "At present, the Flame King Lizard has left the range of the volcano again, which will cause a new wave of beasts."

Hu Tu's eyes were deep, and he said in a low voice, "What's the reason?"

"Inside the volcano, a powerful energy has recently appeared, at least high-level king-level, and it is currently spreading."

Li Wanqing said: "The source of the energy, I need to go to the mountain to investigate again."

"Okay, calm down the beast tide as soon as possible and reduce the incident."

Hu Tu paused for a moment, and said, "I remember, you want to bring newcomers into the mountain for this mission?"

"Yes." The half-race beauty nodded.

"Then protect him."

Hu Tu believed in the ability of his subordinates. Even in the face of a high-ranking king, it would be a breeze for the master to protect a newcomer. He said calmly:

"It's also good for rookies to see the world."

"After this trip to Yunling, I will submit the report on time." Li Wanqing said.

"There is no need to report in detail if there are no tasks related to the overlord-level pet beast."

Hu Tu paused and took out his phone.

"Can you ~ let me dance ~ one more dance for you~"

"Hello, Mom?"

Hu Tu glanced at the mixed-race beauty, nodded for her to get in touch, then turned around the boss chair, turned his back to the screen and said:

"I said, I won't come back to eat at night."

Sister Gao Tangyu hung up the call with a cold face, the corners of her mouth twitched slightly, and finally she couldn't help but cover her face and burst into a smile.

"Cough, Qingfeng, what do you want to eat when you go on a mission tomorrow?"

"Yeah?" Qingfengluan looked at Li Wanqing strangely.

"Think about it first, and then I'll let Luo He prepare in advance." Li Wanqing said calmly.

Qingfengluan was a little silent.

This is clearly going for a picnic!
