Chapter 191 The Snow Leopard Shut Up
"Tower! Tower!"
Inside the café, the green light symbolizing healing in the doll's palm slowly dissipated. Seeing that the Godfather had regained consciousness, the antennae on its angelic ears twitched twice with joy, emitting a happy sound.
For the compassionate healer, the most joyful thing is for a severely injured Pokémon to "come back to life".
If this Pokémon is cured because of it, that would be even more joyous.
"Almost Doll said: The Godfather has been treated to the point of being almost fully recovered. All he needs to do is rest for a while before he can be jumping around again."
It specifically instructed that during this period, one should not eat fruits like Lotus Fruit or Flat Cherry Fruit, which can resist elemental damage, as these would not only fail to speed up recovery but would also worsen the injury.
Ze Shu slowly translated the doctor's instructions for the doll to Pai Pa.
As he translated, Ze Shu couldn't help but sigh, realizing that almost without realizing it, the doll really was...:
He's becoming more and more of a qualified medical expert and a medical master!
When Ze Shu rescued it from the game city, although it displayed amazing medical talent right away, it was still not confident in its medical skills.
Now, it has devoured most of the medical books that Zeki bought on the market, and because it travels with Zeki to various places, it often helps out and absorbs experience at Pokémon Centers in different places, so its medical practice level has improved rapidly. Many Nurse Joy girls really like this little cutie.
Even within the Joey family, there's a reputation for Ze Shu, this almost-doll-like character.
Whenever a crisis strikes and the Pokémon Center is overwhelmed with medical tasks, an angelic-looking Pokémon will arrive at the Pokémon Center to turn the tide and save injured trainers from dire straits... blah blah blah.
The large-scale near-death events previously triggered by the roaring finale of the song "Song of Destruction".
Almost Doll also volunteered to help out at the Pokémon Center in Tabletop City.
In this respect, Almost-Doll is definitely one of the hardest-working Pokémon in Sawaki's Pokémon.
"Almost a doll, that's awesome!"
"Tower, tower..."
The little doll, clutching its tiny hands, endured Ze Shu's constant warm, irritating touch on its head, its cheeks flushing slightly, and it couldn't help but let out a soft, panting breath.
Although it was somewhat sensitive to Ze Shu's restlessness, it was secretly delighted.
Because Ze Shu was the important person who rescued it from the dark and hopeless cage and gave it a new life, Almost Doll never rejected Ze Shu's affection; in fact, she liked it very much.
Ze Shu smiled and said, "You've worked hard, my medical master, Almost Doll. I just got back from the Pokémon Center in Tabletop City and then you went to the trouble of treating Godfather. Now, get some rest, okay?"
"Tower, tower..."
The scorching midday sun shone through the café's glass windows, but it didn't bring any heat. Instead, it shone on the dust motes in the air, creating a few strands of Tyndall effect, which gave Pipa a rather wonderful atmosphere in the café.
"Bing, Binggu!"
At the gate, Lux, who was leisurely enjoying his carefree time, saw the Godfather, who was wrapped in bandages and covered in wounds. He casually grabbed a soft cushion from the side, laid it next to the Growlithe, and then meowed at him twice.
You're comfortable lying here.
The godfather paused for a moment, then hesitated before going over and kneeling down.
So, bathed in the midday sun, the dogs and cats lying by the cafe door took turns yawning, creating a scene of leisure. The cat was naturally lazing around, while the godfather was recuperating.
As for Growlithe...:
It's so frustrating!
Recently, Ze Shu said that it could evolve, but its body had accumulated training injuries from tireless training. Although Ze Shu limited its training time, because of this limitation, Growlithe seemed to give it its all every time it trained, which caused the hidden training injuries to accumulate even more.
But the training results are quite good, and it's almost ready to evolve.
Therefore, in order to reach its optimal evolutionary state and go a step further, it was just explicitly forbidden by Ze Shu from training anymore and was to rest for a while.
This must be incredibly grueling for a Growlithe dog that wants to train 124 hours a day.
But you can't ignore Ze Shu's words, otherwise this wicked trainer will say, "If you don't listen to me, I won't take you to fight Dragon King," forcing Growlithe to submit to his "tyranny" and obediently lie down in front of the cafe door.
Thinking of this, Growlithe puffed out its cheeks in frustration, ignoring the curious gaze of its godfather beside it, and looked resentfully at Ze Shu in the cafe, whimpering.
"You said that ground-crawling winged creature...is quite peculiar?"
Under the watchful eyes of Growlithe, Ze Shu, holding his coffee, looked at Little Blue on the opposite side with a puzzled expression.
"Yes!" Little Blue nodded strangely. "I don't know if this is a good thing or a bad thing. It... actually likes to eat the 'delicious food' I make!"
Ze Shu: "..."
The word "surprisingly"...
Does it mean you have a clear understanding of yourself?
"The ground fins like to eat the food I try so hard to cook well, but they... actually like even more the 'unique flavor' food I create with my wild imagination!"
As she spoke, Xiao Lan's tone seemed to be filled with disbelief and the joy of meeting a "kindred spirit" Pokémon.
"Now, besides Psyduck, I have another Pokémon to digest my daily training food!"
Ze Shu smiled helplessly.
How much has his Psyduck god endured?!
Xiao Lan: "And I've discovered that the ground-crawling wing is actually very easy to get along with... Just feed it until it's full, and it won't have any aggressive desires, just like you said, Ze Shu—it can be petted, hugged, and kissed."
"In the lighthouse earlier, it was because it had traveled a long way and was very hungry, so it attacked us angrily when it saw us stopping it from finding something to eat."
"Hehe... I just eat a lot, my appetite is equivalent to the total of all my other Pokémon combined."
Looking at the Ground-Winged Beast in the yard, which was burying its face in its bathtub-sized food bowl and munching away like a baby, Ze Shu didn't doubt Xiao Lan's words. It really could eat a lot, just like a reincarnation of Snorlax.
This ground wing has been eating for a full hour!
And they eat extremely fast.
Nidolan, the little blue cat responsible for feeding it, also stared in astonishment at the crawling wing.
It struggled tirelessly to feed the winged creature, barely managing to keep up with its eating pace. But then, the winged creature ate with increasing gusto.
The faster they eat, the more the balance is about to be broken.
"Nini!"
Nidolan watched this scene anxiously—the rice in the basin was getting less and less, and he could never keep up with the speed at which he was adding rice.
And amidst this anxiety...
Its entire body suddenly emitted a white light.
Ze Shu reminded Xiao Lan, "It has evolved."
Is this the little blue creature hailed as an evolved being?
Xiao Lan quickly turned her head: "?!"
She hadn't expected that she would just rest for a while and let Nidolan take over feeding her.
It actually forced it to evolve?!
Soon, the white light dissipated, and Nidorina appeared within. Having transformed from Nidoran into Nidorina, and now able to walk upright, she stood with her hands on her hips.
The cute little head tilted up, "Nana!"
Now I can feed this big guy faster, right?
Xiao Lan smiled helplessly as she entered the courtyard.
She never imagined that her Nidolan would evolve for such a simple and funny reason.
Days passed slowly.
Three days later, the "old buddies" that Daigo sent, after going through several transfers, were finally delivered by rows of brightly colored Angry Parrots and a few Corviknights, like an airdrop. With a thud, the airdrop landed on the muddy ground, causing a dent in the ground.
"This is an alloy that broke off from the 'light metal' aluminum steel dragon... This is a metal film specially made by Devon... This is iron-bearing ore mined from Sinnoh..."
Various kinds of metals are piled up here, and Daigo has thoughtfully made labels.
"Chirp chirp!!!"
Buried in the pile of metal as if swimming, the young blacksmith was dazzled. One piece of iron made his heart pound, and in the blink of an eye, another, better piece of metal attracted his gaze like a black hole, making the young blacksmith feel as if he were in a dream, his head spinning.
The little blacksmith thinks he's the happiest Pokémon in the world!
"Chirp, chirp!"
"It's not an illusion, these are all gifts for the little blacksmith. All this metal, it all belongs to the little blacksmith!"
"Chirp...chirp!"
The young blacksmith ran out of the pile of iron and rushed towards Ze Shu with tears in his eyes.
This is like a domineering CEO smashing iron piles with such arrogance; which blacksmith wouldn't be tempted by this?
"Chirp chirp chirp!"
"Okay, okay, calm down, calm down."
Ze Shu gently rubbed the little blacksmith's flushed face, wiped away its tears, and said with amusement.
But the more Ze Shu told the little blacksmith to "take it easy," the less he could hold back his tears. Finally, he burst into tears, crying so pitifully that it was a heart-wrenching experience.
Compared to the past when I had to go through countless hardships, eating garbage, and then excitedly finding a soda can in the trash can, life after meeting Ze Shu was simply blissful beyond words!
The young blacksmith suddenly felt that the blue raven that had stolen his iron wasn't so bad after all.
Because the blue raven led it to the marsh tree.
"Why are you crying? No need to cry, this is nothing." Ze Shu felt his chest was wet and said helplessly and amusedly, "I'm looking forward to the gifts the little blacksmith will make for me in the future."
"Autumn chirps!"
The young blacksmith nodded vigorously while crying.
It felt it could never repay Ze Shu in its lifetime.
With too much metal, Ze Shu temporarily built a metal storage room for the young blacksmith using wood next to the coffee shop.
After bursting into tears of joy, the little blacksmith couldn't wait to pull out his hammer and start forging iron on the spot. He was so excited that he probably would devote all his rest time to it.
Back to the coffee shop.
Leihe was sitting in the corner with a notebook and headphones on—she was monitoring the situation of Roaring Tail and Ancient Sword Leopard fighting in the "Frozen Shrine"—she wasn't wearing headphones originally, but Zeshu insisted that she wear them so that the "wonderful" confrontation would only exist in her ears.
These past few days, Leihe has endured a lot of pain.
"I think I regret agreeing to Zeshu's idea..." Leihe said, her eyes dark with circles.
However, this love for "history" may also stem from the fact that, through computer dissemination and editing, this "wonderful" portrayal of Hao has become somewhat distorted.
She persevered and documented the condition of the shrine that had been cracked by the frost over the past few days.
In short, Day 1: The Ancient Sword Leopard in the Frozen Shattered Shrine is engaged in a fierce battle with Roaring Tail.
The next day: Gu Jianbao was somewhat exhausted, but he still managed to continue fighting Hao.
Day 3: The ancient sword leopard seemed to have run out of steam, but it was still hoarsely shouting.
On the fourth day, all that could be heard was the ancient sword leopard's occasional stubborn "roar," as if to say that it hadn't lost, but simply needed to rest.
Despite how exhausted the Ancient Sword Leopard was.
The other side's roaring tail was absolutely awesome!
With this "opponent" here, Roaring Tail felt that these four days were the best "concert" of its career!
The "opponent" in this hole can't fall asleep no matter how much they sing!
Upon seeing Ze Shu arrive, Lei He raised her head and said:
"Based on this trend, the Ancient Sword Leopard in the Frozen Shrine will weaken to an unbelievable degree in no more than a week. In that case, I might have to prepare to uproot it in the next few days."
Ze Shu said, "Only a week? How about letting Roaring Tail continue singing for another month? Or even half a year? To continue 'weakening' that Ancient Sword Leopard. Anyway, the Ancient Sword Leopard can't leave the shrine, so it can only obediently listen to Roaring Tail's song."
Leihe: "....."
Singing for... half a year?!
This isn't just weakening the Ancient Sword Leopard... it's killing it!
Of course, along with Gu Jianbao's death, she, the "observer," also suffered a significant loss!
Upon hearing Ze Shu's words, Lei He couldn't help but feel sorry for Gu Jianbao.
"...From what I've observed, the ancient sword-wielding leopard inside the shrine might already be very weak. Letting it continue its roaring tail might actually have the opposite effect," Leihe said hesitantly.
"Maybe a week later, as planned..."
"When we opened the inner gate of the shrine, the Ancient Sword Leopard was completely helpless!"
Leihe's words proved prophetic.
Five days later.
In the first western district, in front of the cliff of the Shrine of Frozen Cracks.
The morning breeze, the sand swirling in the wind, the sparse greenery on the cliff, the worn-out microphone in Fatty's hand, and the occasional exhausted howl coming from the icy-glowing sealed pot lid.
"...The last stake is about to be removed, and the seal on this Frozen Shrine will soon be broken." Leihe's voice came through the earpiece, and Zeshu nodded slightly.
Although it was certain that Gu Jianbao was exhausted, he, or rather, the Leihe and Padia Alliance, were well prepared.
As a loud "crack" echoed from within the Frozen Shrine, Ze Shu looked over and saw the wide, X-shaped chain binding it shatter with a deafening roar.
The Shrine of Frozen Cracks has been opened.
"Screech!!"
The icy light shone brightly, and the icy mist, as if made of solid ice, gradually spread out from the opened, cracked shrine.
A slender, snow-white leopard slowly emerged from it.
The ancient yet sharp sword it held in its mouth emitted a faint blue light from its blade patterns, making it quite conspicuous in the icy mist.
"Ho ho ho?"
The roaring tail beside Ze Shu had a curious look in its eyes. It was curious about what the character it had been "duetting" with for a week looked like.
Soon, the icy mist dissipated, revealing the proud figure of the ancient sword leopard standing tall inside.
Its ice-white body is adorned with turquoise rhomboid crystals;
Leopard claws are broad and thick, and its tail is round and thick, making people want to pet it at first glance;
Two sharp bronze swords, like those of a saber-toothed tiger, are stuck upside down in its mouth. The swords are decorated with ancient sword patterns, and the ends of the hilts are wrapped with sharp ice blocks to disguise the sword tips. Coupled with its proudly raised head, it has to be said that this ancient sword leopard is both cute and majestic.
But at this moment, as if returning to freedom after a thousand years, the ancient sword leopard's mouth kept moving:
"Woo~ Awoo~ woo woo~ woo woo~~"
"Waaaaah~~ Waaaah~"
"Woohoo~~"
Ze Shu:
：.....
This guy's a chatterbox!
Perhaps the ancient sword leopard felt that it was very impressive to be so rich.
Ze Shu only found it noisy.
But before he could even say "Snow Leopard, shut up."
This ancient sword leopard...
Then it howled triumphantly.
Its majestic body flipped to the side and fell to the ground.
It seemed that Hao had already used up all its strength.
