Chapter 437: A Dead Egg

The second day after the Quartz Conference officially ended.

Early in the morning, Xiaozhi had already got up.

He wasn't in a hurry to go home, but Abin and Ahong, the friends he met in the competition, were about to leave, so Xiaozhi had to get up early to see them off.

Even if they are rivals and friends, these days, they have taken over a moderate bond with them.

"No, black iron ball, white vanilla, return these props to you."

A Bin waved his hand, his bald head looked very dazzling in the morning sun.

"I'm an old local tyrant, so these props are not a big problem."

Speaking of this, Abin smiled again:

"Xiaozhi, I found that you seem to be quite suitable for my game routines. When I develop any new routines, I will call you to communicate with you, and I will give you a copy of the new props. Remember to check yours regularly. Oh computer."

Of course, friends are friends, but this is also selfish.

Abin's dream momentum is not to make himself stronger, but to invent the ultimate routine, so that ordinary people can use dirty routines to beat the champion, so he needs a helper who can cooperate with him in performing routines, or else.

guinea pig.

"ok."

Xiaozhi just smiled and agreed.

Not to mention, throwing black iron balls to smash flying Pokémon, or white vanilla with shell breaking, are all good routines, the mouse is a mouse...

Two flowers, both sides benefit.

...

After sending off these formidable enemies, Xiaozhi returned to the Pokémon Hall alone.

Pikachu on his shoulders was still drowsy, and Brother Chi's body was also hanging on the side of his clothes, without any movement.

The Quartz Conference was completely over, and the lively scene in the past no longer existed. At this moment, there were only a few people leaving one after another with their luggage and backpacks. This made Xiaozhi, who had been here for nearly a month, a bit uncomfortable.

"Hey, Xiaozhi, you are here, I was looking for you."

At this time, a hearty voice interrupted his thoughts, Xiaozhi looked up, but saw a familiar figure standing at the entrance of the Pokémon Center.

Royal Masked Man.

Although I have already put on a white coat at the moment? But the chest muscles are still exposed without the lining? The collocation is very non-mainstream, and it may even be worn in order to perfunctorily prohibit the upper body from being exposed on the plane.

He still wore a red and black hood on his head so that his face could not be seen clearly.

"Mr. Masked Man? Are you... leaving?"

Xiaozhi noticed that the masked man was carrying a large satchel on his shoulders, as if he was about to leave.

"Well, the game is over after all? I just booked my ticket and I'm leaving soon? I plan to say hello to you before I leave."

Is the masked man a foreigner? In the Kanto area, he is dedicated to challenging, except for Xiaozhi, he has not formed any fetters here.

Although the age difference between the two is quite large, they are both similar people? Not to mention that the two have a sense of familiarity? It seems that they are destined to be involved.

At this time, the masked man suddenly thought of something, stretched out his fist towards him, and said with burning eyes:

"Xiaozhi, two years? About two years later, I will establish our own Pokémon alliance in the Alola region? The first alliance meeting will be held at that time, and I hope you can come to participate."

Before coming to the Kanto area? He was not sure whether the alliance could be formed.

But at this moment, the masked man's mind is extremely firm, and he has no distractions? He knows that it will take two years? It will definitely be completed!

Hearing this, Xiaozhi also had a vigorous smile on the corner of his mouth, and met his bright eyes.

Raise your arms and bump your fist.

"The Alola region two years from now? I'll go there. It's time for me, a foreigner, to win your first championship. Don't blame me."

"Hehe, the trainers in our Alola region are not weak."

Immediately, the eyes of the two were extremely powerful, showing a strong fighting intent. After looking at each other for the last time, the masked man withdrew his fists, no longer nostalgic, and left towards the gate.

...

"Buzz..."

It's just that when the two passed by, a high-frequency sound suddenly appeared in Xiaozhi's ears, giving him a strange feeling that a drop of water fell into the water and slowly rippled away.

"Huh?"

Xiaozhi's suspicious voice made the masked man stop, turned his head curiously and asked:

"What's wrong?"

"Uh, Mr. Masked Man, did you hear a strange sound when we passed each other just now?"

Hearing that the masked man was even more inexplicable, he couldn't help scratching his head.

"Voice, no..."

But at this moment, Xiaozhi's brows were deeply frowned, not only was there a strange sound in his ears, but also in his mind, circles of blue energy halos appeared inexplicably out of thin air, which were rippled and continuously spreading.

Immediately, under the bewildered eyes of the masked man, Xiaozhi closed his eyes subconsciously, sinking deeply in consciousness, trying to find that special halo energy.

After a while, he got the result.

"Is...someone calling me?"

Seeing Xiaozhi pointing at himself, the masked man was even more confused, when did I call you?

"No, it's your backpack, Mr. Masked Man, there seems to be something calling me in your backpack!"

Xiaozhi quickly said, although he didn't know what happened, but he just had a strong intuition.

"Backpack? Impossible. My backpack is full of dead objects, not even props. It's all clothes..."

Before he finished speaking, the masked man suddenly changed his expression, as if realizing something, he quickly opened the backpack and took out something from it.

A Pokémon egg.

The shell is mostly white with a few spots of dark blue.

"Pokemon eggs?!"

Xiaozhi's eyes widened a little, it was the first time he had seen a Pokémon egg.

Could it be this egg calling him?

"Impossible, let's not say that Pokémon eggs do not have the ability to call humans at all, even if they do, it is impossible, because this is a..."

The masked man sighed, and then continued:

"It's a dead egg."

He picked it up gently, and once again felt that there was no heartbeat or breath of life inside the eggshell, and there was a little more sadness in his eyes.

"I only used five Pokémon including the island god this time, and the sixth one was not played. It was the partner I captured when I was traveling in the Sinnoh area, and this Pokémon egg is it. eggs of the same family."

"But when I found it, it was already lifeless, so every time I went to a city, I would ask the local Miss Joy to check it again, and even went to many breeding houses to find experienced craftsmen Probe, but it's all a result."

Dead egg, can't be alive.

The masked man has also given up, this time leaving the Kanto area, he intends to go to the Sinnoh area first, and bury the egg in its native land.

"Impossible! I can feel it calling me!"

Xiaozhi quickly retorted, with a serious tone, and even reached out, wanting to touch the shell of the egg himself.

The masked man had no choice but to carefully hand it to Xiaozhi, and sighed again.

"Hey, to judge whether a Pokémon egg is alive or dead, the first is to touch it with your hands to feel whether the heart is still beating, and the second is to feel the breath of life at close range. A living egg will give people the obvious meaning of life.. .”

Before he finished speaking, Xiaozhi interrupted him.

"Mr. Masked Man, this egg's heart beats like a drum, are you deaf?"

The next second, the Pokémon in Xiaozhi's hand really started to vibrate violently, and his heartbeat was like beating a drum. Even if he didn't put his hands on it, he could still hear a "thump, boom, boom" sound.

The strong breath of life even made his face blurred.

Masked man: "???"
