Chapter 1177 Departure from Zijin
In the cloudless sky, the golden sun hangs high in the sky.
Below it, the vast expanse of sand was also dyed golden.
Occasionally a gust of wind would howl, but it did not bring the coolness as imagined, but instead brought scorching heat and blinding dust.
In this harsh environment, two thin... well... it seemed like more than two, not so thin figures were passing through the wind and sand.
"So why do we have to go through such a troublesome place to get to Fuyan Town?"
Rukia wiped off the dirty dust on her body with a look of disgust.
"There's nothing we can do. Fuyan Town is on the other side of the crater. It seems that there are some problems with this place turning into a desert."
After wiping the sweat off his body, Lin Jing felt helpless.
I have to say that the environment difference between different locations in Hoenn is really big because of the problem of those two idiots.
To the west is an ocean with almost no land, and a tropical rain forest headed by Inyu City.
Of course, there are also the grass and trees on the road before going to Zijin City, which are much more ordinary.
Even now there is a volcano nearby that is constantly emitting volcanic ash, and an empty desert beneath it.
“At least we were well prepared.
Didn’t you see that there were quite a few people on the way here who were not ready and were about to turn back? "
After hearing Lin Jing's words, Lukia shuddered as she thought about the miserable appearances of those travelers she had seen before.
Indeed, if it weren’t for Lin Jing, she would have been blown away by the wind and sand.
It’s such hot weather now, but I don’t feel that hot thanks to the little box Lin Jing made.
After letting Qiuqiu Sea Lion and Vulpix cooperate with each other, he made a lot of ice cubes and wore them around his waist.
Otherwise, the temperature alone would be unbearable.
It seemed like the group of people before were extremely envious of the equipment that they were wearing.
Touching the dust-proof goggles on her eyes, Lukia had a look of relief on her face.
The teacher's decision was indeed correct.
If I were to travel by myself, I would probably have to go straight back to Zijin City like those people before, or I would have to change my route.
“But…didn’t you say in Zijin City that you had never seen a desert before? Isn’t this your first time seeing a desert?
How come there are so many preparations?"
Holding an umbrella, wearing goggles, with ice cubes hanging around her waist and plenty of water, Lukia looked at Lin Jing, who was similarly equipped, with some confusion.
In response, Lin Jing just looked at Lukia with a strange look.
“If you haven’t been here before, at least you can ask other people if you have any questions.
Aren’t the biggest problems in the desert sandstorms, lack of water and food, and other issues such as direction and temperature? "
“That’s true…”
Lucia felt as if she had really done something stupid.
However, Lin Jing added another sentence.
"Of course, the most important thing is that even if these methods don't work, I can let Windy Dog take me back or go through directly."
...has good reasons and even a more robust backup plan.
As expected of a senior who has traveled to a region and won a championship.
It's really reliable...
What the hell (╯‵□′)╯︵┻━┻!
"If that happens, I'll be carried away by the Windy Dog again!
Can't you let me ride on it too? "
After reacting, Lukia quickly raised objections to this backup plan.
However, Lin Jing pushed up the invisible glasses on the tip of his nose and began to explain.
"No, isn't it completely fine now?
Besides, if we really find ourselves in a situation where there is no water or food, or the temperature is high enough to make us get heatstroke or catch a cold, would we still have to worry about that?
The key is to use Arcanine to quickly get to the nearby Pokémon Center, right?"
"...Forget it, let's go."
Looking at Lin Jing's appearance, Lukia rubbed her forehead helplessly.
In any case, Lin Jing's preparation and explanation seemed to be fine.
But why does it feel like the longer I know him, the less steady he was when we first met?
Emm...I can only say that Lin Jing doesn’t know what Lukia is thinking now.
Otherwise, he would definitely complain that you are completely different from the gorgeous idol standing on the stage in my impression.
As for the initial stability...
Ahem, since we just met, I’m definitely not that relaxed.
Now that we have known each other for so long, I have naturally become more accustomed to it.
Of course, he would definitely not tell the other person about some of his little hobbies.
"But...it's rare that Riolu didn't follow you today."
"There's nothing we can do. Once the sand gets on their fur, do you know how hard it is to wash it off?"
In comparison, small diamonds are more suitable for this situation.”
As Lin Jing said this, she also rubbed the little diamond's head.
That’s right, due to environmental reasons, the small broken diamonds with rock properties that are most suitable for desert areas are naturally following Lin Jing today.
As for the reason, he has naturally already stated it.
Although the fire-attributed Arden is not averse to this place, it may even be more energetic because of the bright sunshine.
However, when Lin Jing thought about the hell of grooming its fur, she felt that she was not sensitive enough.
It would be better to wait until we are almost out of the desert and then release them so that he can find a legitimate excuse for this kind of thing.
He doesn't want this situation now.
After all, if you let those furry little ones out now, their fur will soon become dirty and sand will be mixed in it.
For him who likes to rub the furry stuff, the feel of the stuff is a devastating blow.
So even though he had been there for five hours, thirty-two minutes and thirteen seconds, he had not yet touched Fluffy.
But he still planned to wait until the camp was set up at night.
Of course, the small diamonds in this case do more than just serve their purpose of protecting them.
Another one is naturally...
"Missy~ (Quiet, there seems to be a human on the left~)"
“Well… there’s someone else.
Let’s go take a look and help if we can.”
(Happy National Day! Can you give me some free rewards and five-star reviews? QAQ)
