Chapter 2562 Wetland and traces of sticky treasure!
Until everyone completely walked out of the swamp of Xiangxuan Forest Road, no trace of the wild sticky treasure was found.
"Did they really all get eaten by the Kalos?"
Xiaozhi was a little frustrated and took back his waveguide power.
However, walking out of the swamp does not mean that you have arrived at Xiangxuan City. There is also a wetland area that is seamlessly connected in front of you.
The view here is extremely broad. There is no dense forest to cover it. It is almost all open-air lawns and protruding rocks. The environment is excellent.
There are also lakes of different sizes scattered among the lawns, as if there are blue rings on this wetland.
"Even the air suddenly became fresher~!"
Serena smoothed the ends of her hair, took a deep breath, and chuckled.
The previous swamp area was gloomy, and the excessive moisture made the air sticky. Now that I came here, I suddenly felt enlightened.
"Oh, it turns out this is a Pokémon sanctuary~"
Citron looked at the map and introduced:
"Because this land and the swamp were severely damaged in the past. The environment of the swamp cannot be controlled, but the open wetland area in front of us is enclosed as a nature reserve and humans are not allowed to enter without authorization."
Compared to the swamp behind, the wetland in front of you is actually more likely to be home to wild sticky treasures.
"Sounds like a good idea!"
Seeing this, Xiaozhi looked happy and took back the garbage with his backhand.
Although the latter prefers areas with lots of moisture, they prefer dirty, toxin-laden environments.
In a clean place like a wetland, even if there is water, garbage and algae don't like to dive down.
rumble!
Just when a few people were about to walk into this wetland, at the junction of the two areas, at one end of the raised road in the middle, an off-road pickup truck drove over from a distance.
The driver was an older middle-aged uncle in his forties or fifties.
He has a tough build, wears outdoor work clothes, has a rather upright and friendly face, has a gray side beard, and wears a fisherman's hat on his head.
Sitting on the passenger seat was a trumpet bud that was rare in Carlos.
"Hey! Guys, the front is a nature reserve. Outsiders without permission are prohibited from entering!"
Stopping the car firmly in front of a few people, he got out of the car and said loudly.
"Horn~!"
Beside him, the slender trumpet bud also joined in to emphasize.
"Everything in this nature reserve is handled by the Pokémon living there. Humans are not allowed to interfere. Likewise, you cannot tame any Pokémon in it!"
He saw that Xiaozhi and the others were trainers, and he probably wanted to subdue them, so he quickly emphasized the rules.
"Ah, can't you subdue it?"
Hearing this, Xiaozhi was very disappointed. He saw a lot of Pokémon in the wetland area.
And it’s a wild sticky treasure.
He actually saw one!
On a bank of water nearly a hundred meters away, a sticky baby was wriggling on the ground drinking water together with several molten beasts of similar size.
Although they all look like round slugs.
However, the sticky treasure is white and purple, while the molten beast is black and green, which is still very conspicuous from a distance.
"Especially Sticky Pokémon. It's a rare Pokémon and is absolutely forbidden to be tamed!"
Seeing the eager look in Xiaozhi's eyes, the bucket hat uncle spoke again.
If we don’t protect it properly, Pokémon like Sticky Baby will only be recorded in the “Ancient Recipes” in the future!
"All right."
Seeing this, Xiaozhi could only put away his enthusiastic expression, and several people around him curiously asked about the other party's identity.
"Oh~ My name is Xianzang, and I am the ranger of this area."
Xianzang took off his hat, but his tone was still very kind.
"And the wetland area is not allowed to enter. Are you going to Xiangxiang City? Travelers from the swamp side are still very rare."
Xianzang glanced at the swamp behind. Very few people in Carlos would walk directly from this side.
When going from Miare City to Aroma City, you usually take a detour through swamps and wetlands.
"Anyway, come with me. I'll drive you there. But it's not getting very early. If you don't mind, you can stay in the rest area where I live for one night."
Xianzang invited cheerfully.
Obviously, he was a little bored guarding this entire area by himself. Passing travelers could cheer him up and usually offered to let them stay overnight.
Hearing this, Serena was the first to nod.
In the distance, she had seen a two-story wooden house on one side of the wetland.
If you wake up early in the morning, you can overlook the entire wetland area from the balcony on the second floor. This is the ultimate enjoyment!
"Haha~ Then come up~!"
With that said, Xian Zang waved to everyone to get in the car.
This is an open-top pickup truck that only seats two people.
Xianzang himself sat in the driver's seat, while the co-pilot asked the younger Yulijia to sit, and the others sat in the cargo box at the back.
"Let's drive~! I'll leave it to you later, Xiaoyao~!"
Xianzang reminded him with a smile, and then turned on the car's engine.
"Horn~!"
The trumpet responded and sat behind, its slender roots twisting randomly.
clatter! clatter!
Then the front end of the arm rhizome extended and turned into two extremely flexible vines, wrapping around everyone's waists as safety belts.
The rhizomes under his feet seemed to have used the trick of "rooting", firmly grasping the chassis of the truck and remaining motionless even on bumpy road conditions.
"Oh~ Trumpet Ya still has such a skill~!"
Xiaozhi couldn't help but praise that the trumpet bud from his hometown could actually serve as a security officer in Kalos.
It was getting dark, so everyone put down their luggage and temporarily moved into Mr. Xianzang's cabin.
Since the house was built on the edge of a wetland and the air quality was excellent, Xiaozhi even had a much better appetite than usual and kept eating on the dining table.
"Oh~ my little friend's craftsmanship is much better than mine~!"
While enjoying Citron's dinner, Xianzang couldn't help but admire it.
Usually when he and Trumpet Ya eat, they just deal with it casually and then pass.
"Let's talk about Mr. Xianzang."
Xiaozhi raised his head, swallowed the food hard, and then asked:
"Besides this protected area, do you know where I can capture Pokémon like Sticky?"
"Do you want to tame wild Slime Pokémon? Although the Kalos region is the main habitat of Slime Pokémon, it is rare to see this kind of Pokémon in the wild now."
Xianzang touched his chin and thought, then replied:
"It is estimated that our nature reserve is the only place where wild sticky treasures still live."
Hearing this, Xiaozhi tilted his head, this is a bit watery, it's the same as not saying anything.
