Chapter 382 The woman on the bed? !
After leaving the hospital, Zhang Heng did not return to the dormitory. Instead, he took a taxi and came to the Alliance Exchange in Goose City again.
Not long after, Zhang Heng arrived at the Alliance Exchange. The building before him was grand and majestic, its heavy stone gate and towering stone pillars highlighting its authority.
However, Zhang Heng no longer had the awe he had when he first came here. After all, the last time the people here embezzled money, they still made Zhang Heng very uncomfortable.
But now time is running out, and we must hurry up to improve ourselves. There is not much time left, after all, Kyurem's crisis is imminent.
After Zhang Heng walked in, he registered his personal information using the illustrated book as required, and only then was he allowed to enter the exchange.
Soon, he saw a storage object in his exchange information column, which was the secret machine of the wave missile given by Duan Guanjun.
Zhang Heng didn't hesitate and clicked "Take Out." A staff member wearing an exchange uniform handed Zhang Heng a box shortly after.
Zhang Heng took the box and opened it. Inside lay a small octagonal prism. The outer shell was made of a special alloy that emitted a deep blue light. The surface had a delicate matte texture and felt slightly cool to the touch.
Zhang Heng narrowed his eyes and used his system's ability to look around.
Item Name: Wave Missile Esoteric Machine
Function: This item allows Pokémon to learn the Wave Missile skill, and can be used multiple times.
The secret machine is not as complicated as the skill machine, and its usage conditions are not so harsh. The skill machine needs to be placed in the training dome before it can be used.
Although the Secret Machine can also be used in the Training Dome, the one with its own activation device can be used anytime and anywhere, and can also achieve the effect of allowing Pokémon to learn skills.
"Let's find a chance for Altanon to try to learn it, even if it's just mastering fighting-type energy."
Unfortunately, in Zhang Heng's current team, there is only one creature that can learn the Wave Missile, and that is the Aluminum Steel Dragon.
To be precise, only the evolved Altendra can learn the Wave Missile, while the unevolved Altendra cannot learn it.
Of course, even if Zhang Heng has obtained the key evolution item, composite metal, it is still a difficult choice whether to evolve or not, because only the aluminum steel dragon can grow to super giant size, but the aluminum steel bridge dragon cannot.
"Forget it, let's find some time to train Altanon. He can master the fighting energy as much as possible, which will also make it easier for him to master other fighting-type moves in the future. For example, the pounce attack is also very useful."
After taking the box, he asked the staff to buy a "singing" skill machine. After doing all this, he left the exchange.
Apart from the matter of Kyurem, the ranking competition within the school is Zhang Heng's biggest problem at the moment.
Today's ranking competition was from 200 to 100. After Zhang Heng defeated the trainer who used Saltrock, he successfully entered the top 100.
The next game will be in two days, but it will be even more brutal, with the number of participants directly reduced from 100 to 32.
This is also the competition with the highest elimination rate and the most rounds. In the past, the elimination rate was 50-50, but this time, the number of players will be reduced by more than 68%.
Zhang Heng put away the secret wave missile machine properly. Although improving his strength was urgent, a sad figure emerged in his mind.
What Zhang Heng was worried about was Yishu, who was eliminated after losing the competition.
"By the way, could Yishu be over there?!"
Yishu had mentioned many times before that there was a quiet little pond in the back mountain of the academy, but he never managed to keep the appointment.
Thinking back to the fact that Yishu lost the competition today, she must be feeling very depressed. Thinking about this, I decided to go visit her first.
In my backpack, I dug out a back-to-school gift I'd prepared long ago but never given. It was a precious piece of classical music, the slightly yellowed paper exuding the charm of time, and the notes seemed to tell an ancient and enchanting melody.
Zhang Heng discovered this sheet music by chance. Not only that, he also brought along the singing skill machine he had just exchanged from the research institute. Thinking that Yishu and Huayang Sea Lion were both passionate about music, this gift was perfect.
Carrying the gift, Zhang Heng headed towards the mountain behind the academy. The afternoon sun poured down warmly, and a gentle breeze rustled the leaves, creating a natural symphony.
Arriving at the back of the mountain, he saw Yishu sitting alone by the pond, her forlorn figure looking particularly lonely, her head buried between her legs. A flowery sea lion stood by, gently nuzzling her with its soft head, as if offering silent comfort.
Zhang Heng took a deep breath, slowly approached, and called softly, "Yishu."
Yishu looked up at the sound, a trace of disappointment still lingering on her face. Seeing that it was Zhang Heng, she forced a smile and said, "Why are you here?"
Zhang Heng slowly sat down beside her, handed her the classical music sheet and the singing skill machine, and said, "This is a back-to-school gift for you. I haven't found the right opportunity to give it to you. I know you and Hua Yang Hai Shi love music, and this sheet music is hard to come by. And this singing skill machine, maybe it can help Hua Yang Hai Shi improve."
Yishu took it, her eyes filled with surprise and astonishment. Her fingers gently stroked the music sheet and she said excitedly, "Thank you, Zhang Heng!"
Zhang Heng smiled and released his Pokémon one by one. Now was a good time to take a break from his busy schedule and let them relax.
"Yes."
As soon as Milotica appeared, the Blooming Sea Lion happily swam over to it and nuzzled into it affectionately. Milotica was the guide for the Blooming Sea Lion, so their relationship was particularly close. The two singing Pokémon gathered together, and soon, the melodious sound of their song drifted over the pond, its clear and pleasant melody refreshing and soothing.
"Gela~"
Swampert dove into the pond, splashing water and moving freely through it. Tanabata was also a singing Pokémon, but it was a little tired from its recent competitions. It simply landed lightly on the broad body of Avrothroat, squinting its eyes in contentment, enjoying the leisurely afternoon. Avrothroat lay calmly beside it, exuding an aura of tranquility.
Zhang Heng looked at the Pokémon happily playing in the pond, then turned to Yishu and said, "Don't take today's match too seriously. You and Leonea both performed exceptionally well. After all, we've only just started our journey as trainers."
Yishu gazed at the Pokémon playing happily in the water, nodded gently, and said with emotion: "Well, I was feeling very sad just now, but luckily I had the Flower Sea Lions to accompany me. Now listening to them singing and receiving such a great gift from you, I feel much better. Thank you so much for coming."
The two of them sat by the pond, watching the Pokémon playing happily, excitedly sharing interesting stories from Pokémon training, and imagining the future. The warm sunshine gently fell on them, not only dispelling the haze in Yishu's heart, but also making this pure and beautiful friendship even deeper.
..........................
After relaxing for an afternoon, Zhang Heng felt that the burden and fatigue on his shoulders had been reduced a lot. Returning to the hospital dormitory, he just walked to the door when he shivered for no reason. An inexplicable chill went from the soles of his feet to his head.
He couldn't help but mutter to himself, "Could it be that another ghost-type Pokémon is causing trouble?"
Filled with suspicion, he slowly pushed open the dormitory door. Instantly, the chill he felt was even stronger. Zhang Heng's eyes sharpened, and he walked slowly inside with steady yet cautious steps.
The moment he stepped into the living room, he caught a glimpse of a blinding white light from the corner of his eye. His heart skipped a beat, and he instinctively turned to look towards the bedroom. To be more precise, towards the bed.
It would have been fine if he hadn't looked at it. But once he did, Zhang Heng felt his scalp tingling and the blood in his body seemed to freeze instantly - there was a woman lying on the bed!
The woman's bare back was exposed. In the dim light, her skin shone with a cold, cold glow, revealing an indescribable strangeness and incongruity...
