Chapter 307: Suicune on the High Ground
After expressing to the little cat monster his sadness about not being able to see the childhood appearance of the Xenon cat, Luo Mu took Victini and Vulpix deep into the hunting area.

The entire hunting zone of Azure City is divided into six areas, but there are even more modules and environments within the areas.

Prairie, rock field, wetland, forest, wasteland, swamp, wasteland, lake and even desert and mountain, I don’t know how they blended so many environments into one place.

Luo Mu’s main goal is to find the trace of Huhu in the three areas of prairie, wetland and forest. In addition, considering the rock properties of Huhu, the desert and mountain areas can also be included in the alternative targets.

Even though the hunting grounds in Zhanlan City were newly opened, business was booming. If Luo Mu had not arrived early, given how crowded the hunting grounds were when he entered, he would have had to wait in line.

In the vast grassland area, many trainers can be vaguely seen.

There are quite a lot of Pokémon distributed here, such as the Little Cat Monster that Luo Mu just saw, as well as Rattata, Falcon, Viper, Thunderbeast, Meerkat, Nidoran and Nidoran.

"Tini!"

Victini suddenly pointed to a large tree standing alone in the grassland. Under the crown of the tree, a yellow Pokémon with squinting eyes, like a little fox, was quietly sitting there.

"Even Kathy?"

Luo Mu showed a look of surprise. It seemed that there was really something in this hunting area.

Psychic Pokémon have always been famous for being omnipotent and rare, just like a Kirin who was surrounded by a group of little kids not far away and was trying to please him, but was disdainful of the Pokémon food they took out.

It can be seen that the Kirin is tired of eating ordinary Pokémon food, so it ignores the children's kindness and is very cold.

This made Luo Mu understand some things. For example, because Pokémon cannot be captured through battle, the Pokémon in this hunting zone may have long been tired of the food brought by humans. If there is no novelty and the food does not taste good, they may return empty-handed.

Fortunately, these are my strengths.

With a slight smile on his lips, Luo Mu turned around and planned to leave the grassland where more and more people were coming.

He didn't have much interest in Casey, and now he only followed three principles when capturing Pokémon.

1. Pokémon suitable for farm development
2. Depend on fate

Three: What you like

Shortly after Luo Mu turned and left, a couple of trainers discovered Casey under the tree canopy. They flipped through the illustrated book in their hands and found that Casey could evolve into the powerful psychic Pokémon Alakazam. The couple looked like they had hit the jackpot and immediately planned to sneak up to Casey and tempt it with food.

But just as they were about to approach Casey, mental fluctuations silently surged out of Casey's body, distorting the space, and disappeared in the blink of an eye along with its small body.

Just as the couple were showing expressions of regret and remorse, above their heads a cuckoo flapped its wings, which were smaller than its spherical body, and flew over them. After looking at them with a smile of success, it flew towards the forest.

Pokémon like Pot-shaped shells like quiet places, such as tree holes in the forest, under rocks, and caves in the mountains. They will stay quietly in these safe places and slowly brew the fruits or herbs stored in their pot-shaped shells.

Luo Mu’s first stop was naturally the forest area.

There were quite a lot of Pokémon in the forest. When they saw Luo Mu, a outsider, some timid Pokémon retreated directly into their nests, while some Pokémon cast vigilant glances at Luo Mu, as if they would attack violently if he dared to approach.

Ignoring the gazes of those Pokémon, Luo Mu shouted to the top of his head: "Victini, stop playing, it's time to go."

"Bimi~"

Victini suddenly poked his head out from the treetops above his head. Instead of scaring Luo Mu, he startled the Vulpix in his arms.

Victini reluctantly said goodbye to a little brown bird standing on a tree branch, and then hurried to catch up with Luo Mu who had already walked some distance forward.

Looking at Victini, who was happily spinning in circles in front of him, ignoring the fierce and cute gaze of the grinning Vulpix, Luo Mu asked with a smile, "How was playing with your new friend?"

"Timi~Timi!"

Victini nodded heavily in response to Luo Mu's question.

Victini felt very happy just thinking about the experience of flying and playing in the sky for a long time with his new friend Bobo.

Only after leaving Aindook did it realize how big the world is, how many lives there are, how beautiful the scenery is, and how many friends there are to meet.

However, there are Pokémon that are friendly to Victini and Luomu, and naturally there are also Pokémon that are waiting for an opportunity to attack them.

One of the reasons why Mr. Baobab allows trainers who enter the hunting zone to bring Pokémon with them is that the hunting zone is filled with kind Pokémon that are not only pure in mind but also friendly to both humans and Pokémon.

There are also wild Pokémon that have been harmed, abandoned, or captured by poachers, forced to be separated from their families, and are full of hostility towards humans.

Half an hour after entering the forest, Luo Mu, Victini and Vulpix encountered the first hostile wild Pokémon that actively attacked.

"Hiss-"

It was a purple snake Pokémon that looked like a giant cobra, with a scary pattern on its belly that could stop children from crying at night.

The perennial villain - Arbok, a poisonous cobra Pokémon known as Musashi's partner.

Arbok spit out its forked tongue and let out a cold hissing sound. The patterns on its belly became vivid as the monster moved, as if they had come alive.

Luo Mu was not scared, and Victini was not scared either. Instead, the spoiled little princess Vulpix had never seen such a scene before. She was so scared that she buried her head in Luo Mu's chest. If she didn't need Luo Mu to protect her, Vulpix might have made a hole in it.

Arbok looked at Luo Mu with an expression full of hostility and hatred, as if it had been hurt and betrayed by humans before. Luo Mu could understand Arbok's pain very well, but that didn't mean he would be so chaste as to surrender and let Arbok vent its anger on him.

First, he looked at Victini above his head. Luo Mu thought that this was a forest area, and it would be better not to let Victini participate in the battle. It would be bad if a fire was caused by accident.

As for Victini's supernatural energy, to be honest, it is used too poorly. Luo Mu would rather use it for auxiliary purposes.

Thinking of this, it became clear who would fight the restless Arbok.

Bending down, he put Vulpix, who was clinging to his arm tightly, on the ground. Seeing its puzzled expression, Luo Mu smiled and said, "Vulpix, go and defeat Arbok."

"Mew!?"

Vulpix's small body trembled, and it first looked at the nearly four-meter-long Arbok, and then looked at Luo Mu.

You let Vulpix fight that guy!?
Stared at by Arbok's cold and hostile gaze, Vulpix felt that he would not be able to get through this hurdle today.

Of course Luo Mu would not let Vulpix go to die, he had no interest in abusing Pokémon.

It's just that compared to burning the forest, freezing is more suitable in this hot summer, and it may even cool down the forest.

That Arbok is probably as strong as a dominant monster even in the wild. There is no way to defeat it with just Vulpix now. But... this is in the wild, and there is no rule that prohibits the use of support, right?
Although Vulpix was a little scared, it understood that Luo Mu was serious. It recalled its mother's sacred, awe-inspiring and powerful posture on the snowy mountain, as well as how it had previously killed the Dark Triangle and their even more ferocious Pokémon in seconds.

Vulpix's violently beating little heart slowly returned to its normal frequency, and a hint of determination, fighting spirit and indomitable spirit gradually emerged in its almond-shaped gradient eyes.

Luo Mu raised the corner of his mouth and gave Victini a look, and V flew happily behind Vulpix. As the golden aura rose, Vulpix once again felt the feeling of being in Aindok. No, an even stronger power than that time filled his body.

There is nothing to be afraid of anymore!
Arbok looked coldly at Luo Mu throwing the small and cute Pokémon in his arms to block the gun, and his heart was filled with anger towards humans and the hypocritical Luo Mu.

It decided to let the human have a good taste of the power of its own poison. As for the other two that looked vulnerable, a flick of the snake's tail or a entanglement would be enough to defeat them.

Arbok opened his mouth and a ball of extremely smelly purple venom shot towards Luo Mu at high speed like a sharp arrow. According to the speed of the venom, Luo Mu had no doubt that if he was hit, he might be pierced.

After all, Poison-attribute Pokémon are one of the biggest problems that cause trouble for novice trainers, and inexperienced novice trainers often fall easily to Poison-attribute Pokémon.

In a flash, countless thoughts flashed through Luo Mu's mind, but this did not prevent him from saying, "Divine power!"

"Miaowu——"

Vulpix let out a cute low moan, and a mysterious pink-purple light shone in its gradient blue almond-shaped eyes. With the blessing of Victini, the invisible power spread out, and in the blink of an eye, the arrow-like smelly venom was intercepted in mid-air.

Arbok's effortless movements paused, and a hint of surprise appeared on his gloomy face.

His own venom attack was actually caught by that seemingly vulnerable little guy?

Vulpix, which was regarded as a vulnerable little guy by Arbok, showed joy after successfully blocking the venom attack. At the same time, it became more confident.

As Victini's golden aura rose again, ice-blue energy suddenly began to gather in Vulpix's mouth.

"Snow!"

The moment Luo Mu's voice fell, Vulpix spurted out the energy in its small mouth in one breath.

next moment.

It was midsummer, but Arbok felt a biting cold. The cold wind mixed with intact snowflakes made a shrill whistling sound, as if the strong wind was its horn and the snowflakes were its iron hooves, bringing unstoppable power and instantly submerging Arbok's huge body.

Before being engulfed by the extreme cold, Arbok's brain, which was almost unable to function due to the low temperature, only had one thought before it was completely frozen.

You call this thing fine snow?
The entire forest was now being buffeted by the frost wind blowing from the north. One trainer looked incredulous and exclaimed, "It's midsummer now!"

Soon, the news spread throughout the hunting area.

In this forest, an extremely powerful Ice-attribute Pokémon appeared. The frost wind it blew could sweep across the entire forest. As long as it was captured, not to mention the Silver Tournament, maybe we could even directly defeat the Johto region's Flying-type champion, Adu!
Immediately, this news attracted people from the entire hunting area to flock to the area, blocking the forest.

Deep in the forest, a Pokémon with a noble, elegant and unique temperament raised its head.

Its appearance was like the Qilin in Chinese mythology. Most of its body was aqua blue with white block patterns. A blue crystal-like headdress shone brightly on its head, and its tail, like a ribbon, drifted slowly in the frosty wind.

A hint of surprise appeared in Suijun's ruby-like eyes. What kind of power is this?

The ice energy contained in the Frost Wind itself is not rare, but the ice energy is also covered with some strange golden energy. Perhaps the other party can
Thinking of the Pokémon he had met in the mountain not long ago, Suicune lowered his head and pondered for a moment, without much hesitation, he followed the scent and went there.

"Bi Mi~Ti Mi?"

Lying on Luo Mu's head, Victini swung his little feet and asked his mount Luo Mu curiously.

Luo Mu knew what Victini was asking. The image of Arbok that had been frozen into an ice sculpture came to his mind. He shook his head and said, "Just let it stay there. It's basically the boss of this forest. Even if it's frozen and weakened, no one can threaten it."

"What's more, the other party was hostile to us. To be more precise, it was hostile to me and took the initiative to attack us. I am not so kind and boring as to heal its wounds and sacrifice myself to make it stop hating humans."

"It's better to leave this kind of thing to someone else with greater ability."

Anyway, Victini had already used fire moves to break some of the ice, and he touched Arbok's snake body to feel it. Now Luo Mu couldn't speak in a tough manner.

After explaining to Victini, Luo Mu looked at the Vulpix in his arms again and said with appreciation: "On the contrary, our Vulpix performed well today and was very brave. He must be rewarded. You can order whatever you want for dinner tonight~"

Liuwei, who tilted his head and listened carefully to Luo Mu's speech, first raised his head and showed pride at his praise, and then heard the reward of ordering any dinner he wanted.

"Mew!"

Vulpix's eyes suddenly shone brightly. Is there any benefit to a Pokémon battle that is just a one-shot kill with Victini's assistance?!
At this time, Liuwei had already started thinking about what kind of luxurious dinner he should ask Luo Mu to take him tonight.

After all, it left with Luo Mu not only because of its mother's instigation, but also because it was tempted by the food provided by Luo Mu.

Looking at Vulpix's excited look, Luo Mu showed a helpless smile. These little guys are all greedy. Fortunately, he can also make money, otherwise he will be eaten up by them sooner or later.

The main purpose of letting Vulpix participate in the battle today was to build up Vulpix's self-confidence, fighting spirit and courage. In fact, after sending out Vulpix, Luo Mu already had the Poké Ball of Serpentier in his hand, not to mention the assistance of Victini.

As long as Vulpix takes the first step, the second and third steps will become simpler and easier.

On this basis, give Vulpix positive feedback - order whatever you want for dinner to stimulate Vulpix's enthusiasm.

I have to say, Pokémon are like children to trainers, and parenting tips are really useful!

A smile appeared on Luo Mu's lips, and he left the forest where there was no trace of Hu Hu and headed towards other areas.

But this time, even he didn't realize that he was being stalked by a Pokémon with a lithe figure and a noble aura.

A few moments——

At five o'clock in the afternoon, after searching for a whole day, including the prairie, wetlands, forests and deserts, Luo Mu still couldn't find any trace of Hu Hu.

Seeing that there were only three hours left before the hunting zone closed, Luo Mu had to set his target on his last alternative option - the mountain area.

The mountain area is at the northernmost part of the hunting zone. It is full of towering peaks and highlands. If you land there and don't climb, you can only rely on riding a flying Pokémon to fly up in one breath.

With a faint hope in his heart, Luo Mu came to the mountain area. Looking at the heights that were probably as low as 20 meters high, he knew that instead of wasting time climbing by himself, he would need the help of Dragonite.

The moment Luo Mu took out the Dragonite Poké Ball, Suicune, who had been following him for a day and witnessed him sharing food with hungry wild Pokémon, rescuing wild Pokémon that were poisoned by eating poisonous mushrooms, and helping bullied wild Pokémon escape from the oppression of their tribe, made up his mind.

As a cool breeze blew past Luo Mu from behind, a blue figure leaped over his head. After a few light leaps, Suicune, surrounded by the north wind, appeared on the high ground, staring at Luo Mu quietly with his ruby-like eyes.

Luo Mu was stunned:! ?
What was that thing that just popped out?

Victini above his head and Vulpix in his arms stared blankly at Suicune, whose purple flowing hair swayed with the blowing of the north wind, and whose whole body was filled with elegance, nobility and cleanliness.

There was only one thought left in my mind -

What a handsome and cool way to make an appearance.

Luo Mu didn't expect that Suicune would suddenly appear in front of him. He probably didn't do anything worthy of Suicune's attention, right?

After a moment of silence, as if he suddenly remembered something, Luo Mu reached out to his chest, and a feather shining with silver light that he used as a necklace pendant was exposed to the air and to the eyes of Suicune who was busy posing.

Luo Mu wondered, could it be that Suicune sensed the presence of Lugia on the Silver Feather, so he came looking for him?
But he didn't see that when Suicune on the high ground saw Luo Mu take out the silver feather, he almost lost his elegant posture, and his heart was like a violent tsunami, causing huge waves.

Why is the feather of Lugia, the god of the sea, the god of ocean currents, and the god of monsoons, on this human!?

Could it be that he is the human chosen by Lugia?

Suicune, who had originally intended to guide Luo Mu to rescue the Pokémon in a noble and distant manner, fell silent. Although it was the north wind that he had stirred up, Suicune felt that he was being blown around by the wind.
