Chapter 103 The Best Partner for the Connector?
Chapter 103 The Best Partner for the Connector?
"No... As expected of someone with good fortune, they even have a 'Guardian Pokémon' protecting them in the dark... I admit defeat."
Noticing Li Luochen's gaze, Lucario's Gilgamesh "Child" reluctantly turned around, looking completely convinced.
"this……"
Even a seasoned trainer like Li Luochen, who had seen it all, was speechless for a moment when he saw the Pokémon before him.
The Pokémon in front of me looked as if it were plated with gold, its entire body shimmering with golden light.
Its appearance is like that of a child, with a braid on the top of its head and an upward-curving horn on each side of its head, with a small gold ring hanging inside the horn.
It has a small body and arms that are separate from its body and float in the air.
Furthermore, this little guy has a golden ring around his waist, and below the ring, he has no legs, only a golden tail like a ghost.
Pokémon: Hoopa (Punishment/Shin-Mythical Pokémon)
[Attributes: Superpowers, Ghost]
[Level: 45 (90)]
【Trait: Magician】
[Techniques: Dimensional Cave, Psychic Power... others omitted.]
That's right, the Pokémon in front of us is a Shiny Hoopa!
to be frank.
This was the first time Li Luochen had ever seen a shiny Mythical Pokémon.
It's still Hoopa!
Thinking of this, Li Luochen gently stroked his chin and leaned down to look at Hu Pa.
He remained silent, just staring straight at the other person.
Feeling targeted by Li Luochen's gaze, Hu Pa immediately begged for mercy, "Please, have mercy on me! I just happened to be passing by and was hungry, so I just grabbed the food and ate it all. I really meant no harm!"
Before Li Luochen could even ask a question, Hu Pa had already revealed everything he had done.
Therefore, Leton and the Four-jawed Needle Dragon rushed forward, staring angrily at Hoopa.
"Ahhh!" (You're quite the glutton, aren't you? Taking one or two is one thing, but taking them all? Can your little stomach even hold that much?)
"That's right!" (Exactly! You can't eat much, you look like a kid! When I was a baby, I could only eat a little before I couldn't eat anymore. Don't tell me you ate all our food in such a short time!)
Therefore, neither Leton nor Jaw-1 Thorium believed that Hoopa was telling the truth.
How could such a tiny creature possibly eat more than them?
That's absolutely making excuses for yourself!
"Wait, I have a question."
Li Luochen poked the ring on Hu Pa's forehead and asked, "Why do you call me the person of destiny?"
"I overheard someone in a room saying that you, sir, are a person of destiny... I initially thought it was a joke, but I never expected you to even bring out those 'guardian Pokémon' from novels..."
Hupa trembled.
It never imagined that a champion-level Lucario would end up in such a small place.
Oh no!
If I hadn't been unable to unleash my full potential, I wouldn't have been caught by a mere Champion-level Pokémon!
Hoopa had to admit that he had gone too far this time.
Li Luochen raised an eyebrow, urging Hu Pa to explain the situation.
Immediately afterwards, Hu Pa told Li Luochen everything he had heard in Shi Wen's dormitory.
Li Luochen: ……
It's that amazing brother and sister pair again!
Didn't we ask them to uninstall the novel app?
Why are you still keeping it?
"Hehe, big brother, would you be willing to let me go? I promise I won't tell anyone that you're a person of destiny!"
Li Luochen rolled his eyes at Hu Pa, his mind filled with doubt: "But how did you find me?"
It couldn't be that Shi Wen put the photos in the dorm and Hu Pa just happened to see them, which is why he came to her door, right?
"Isn't this simple?"
Hoopa swayed more vigorously, quickly saying, "You possess rainbow feathers, special feathers that only rainbow warriors recognized by Lord Ho-Oh can possess! So besides you, no one else could be the one with such luck!"
"Do you know Ho-Oh?"
Li Luochen's expression relaxed somewhat.
"Of course I know you! You might not believe it, but I'm an unofficial member of the Ho-Oh Guard, known as the best partner of the 'Connector'!"
Hoopa patted his chest, and when he announced his name, his expression turned serious: "Don't underestimate me because of my small size; the golden ring on my body can summon all sorts of Pokémon!"
By the end, Hoopa looked confident.
"Who is the one connecting?"
Upon hearing the unfamiliar name, Li Luochen couldn't help but ask a question.
Without hesitation, Hoopa shook her head and replied, "I don't know. Lord Ho-Oh said we'll meet again if fate allows!"
Li Luochen frowned and pressed, "Since your golden ring can shake Pokémon, can you shake Ho-Oh over? I'd like to ask in person."
Hoopa shook his head again and said, "No."
Li Luochen: "..."
"I've finished asking my questions."
Li Luochen chose to step back, handing the stage over to Guleton and Four-jawed Needle Dragon.
Hoopa panicked when it saw that it was about to be surrounded by the two Pokémon.
"A person of destiny! Save me! I will be of great use to you!"
It shouted at Li Luochen, "I can retrieve any Pokémon that smells like you! And if you ever encounter danger, just give the order, and I'll bring you a whole bunch of Pokémon related to you to your rescue!"
"Um?"
Li Luochen became somewhat interested and said to the two dragons, "Guleton and Four-jawed Needle Dragon, let's stop for a moment."
Having said that, he squeezed between the two dragons, raised his hand to signal Lucario to release Hoopa, and said, "Demonstrate."
"Heave-ho!"
Hoopa, now free, put his hands on his hips, used his superpowers to remove the ring from his left corner, and whispered, "As you wish, as I desire. Grow bigger, grow bigger, grow bigger!"
Just as Li Luochen was about to complain about the command, he saw that the golden ring that Hu Pa had taken off was indeed getting bigger and bigger, with a radius of three meters.
It reached out a hand and groped around in the center of the golden ring.
Splash!
Seawater kept surging in, and then a Gyarados emerged from the golden ring with a look of astonishment on its face. When it saw Li Luochen in front of it, it thought it had gone the wrong way.
Otherwise, it's not time to go back yet, so how did I end up in my hometown?
Li Luochen nodded slightly: "Not bad."
After speaking, Li Luochen explained the general situation to Gyarados.
"Roar." (Oh, I see.)
After understanding the situation, Gyarados left Li Luochen with its recent findings before returning to the Golden Ring and continuing its journey.
"How was it? Wasn't I useful?"
Hu Pa put his hands on his hips and asked Li Luochen for credit.
In response, Li Luochen flicked its forehead, steer the conversation back to the earlier point: "So, where did all that food go?"
Hupa's expression changed, and she cautiously asked, "If I told you that there's an evil spirit inside me, and I can only suppress the evil thoughts in my heart by eating food, would you believe me?"
