Chapter 447 Marshall: Who exactly is the examiner of the Rainbow Trial?
Monday, June 1th.
As June arrives, temperatures gradually rise, and it already feels like summer.
Just today, Qingyu, who was lying outside the Sunshine Dojo enjoying her "retirement" life, suddenly remembered something—
I think I promised Marshall that I would start the Rainbow Trial as soon as I returned to Padia, but it's been a week since I got back and I still haven't remembered.
Of course, even though I had a 1% problem, Marshall, as the examiner, didn't remind me, so isn't he also 99% to blame?
So Qingyu slapped his thigh and looked at the shadow cast by the sun in front of him.
"Marcador, are you there?"
As soon as he probed, the previously calm shadows began to ripple, and soon a large, dark head emerged from them.
"What's wrong, Hero?"
Martha's signature red "big eyes" looked at Qingyu, with a hint of panic in her gaze.
Last time, the hero summoned me, and the end result was that I had to punch a god to support him. I still feel a lingering fear.
This time, it also had a vague sense of unease.
Ever since discovering the strength of this new hero, Marshall has really wanted to quit his job.
Even if it was the somewhat evil Giovanni who didn't take Ho-Oh seriously, at least the thoughts of the previous Ho-Oh heroes were still within my comprehension.
Qingyu was completely different. In just one short month, it lost count of how many legendary Pokémon it had seen with this hero.
And there's something even more terrifying—
Most of these legends, such as those involving the three powerful gods Black Rayquaza and Sinnoh, seem to be no weaker than their own Ho-Oh.
There was even the legendary giant, and the power that could be vaguely sensed from the creator god.
Who exactly is this Rainbow Trial testing?
Looking back on her recent experiences, Marshall felt completely numb.
What Qingyu said next was no less than giving it a powerful electric shock, causing it to instantly take off.
"It's nothing, I just suddenly remembered that I haven't completed the Rainbow Trial yet, have I? The Three Holy Beasts should have arrived in Padia by now, right?"
As soon as Qingyu finished speaking with a smile, she noticed that Marshall immediately emerged from the shadows and landed on the ground with an extremely serious expression.
Finally—has it come to this?
I originally thought that the hero had forgotten about this matter, and that as long as I (and the three holy beasts) didn't take the initiative to show ourselves, we could probably continue to delay.
But now it seems that it really can't be hidden anymore!
So, at this moment, it is necessary to say, "Yes, hero."
Marshall nodded respectfully, looking almost cautious.
"Suicune, Entei, and Raikou have all arrived in Patia. Are they planning to begin the Rainbow Trial now?"
As it spoke, its gaze unconsciously drifted to the Pokémon in the nearby gym, while it thought to itself:
Although it's a bit immoral to think this way, if only the Three Holy Beasts get beaten up—
I, as the examiner, don't need to personally participate.
It's better to die for your fellow Daoist than for me!
Anyway, those three are "sacred beasts" that have been baptized by the flames of life, so they can recover quickly even if they get beaten up!
"Hmm—after all, there's a reason why I have to see Ho-Oh."
Qingyu nodded.
In fact, the title of Rainbow Hero is no longer relevant to him.
After all, if I were to reveal my current identity as "Arceus's Chosen," I'm afraid there wouldn't be another one like me in the entire Pokémon world.
Compared to the creator god, Ho-Oh is still quite a bit inferior.
However, if I can successfully become the Rainbow Hero, I might have a chance to meet Ho-Oh.
Although he roughly knew the current location of Ho-Oh and Lugia, he knew that he would definitely not be able to encounter them if he went directly there.
Because of some events that happened in the Johto region, these two legendary figures who were very close to humans left the human world, and since then, news about them has become difficult to verify.
It is even said that they deliberately avoid humans, and even when they occasionally appear in the sight of people who have gained their approval, it is only for a fleeting glance.
As for the Three Sacred Beasts—
If it were when he was a child, Qingyu might have been very interested in Suicune, thinking it was a cool and aloof big dog with both strength and good looks.
But now, those who know, know!
Compared to them, Qingyu was more concerned about whether their "paradoxical species" would appear inside Zone Zero.
Rippling water, piercing flames, and thunderous drums.
It has both good looks and real talent.
However, the only way to explain how the "Ancient Three Beasts" and the "Future Three Musketeers" came to be seems to be related to the little turtle Talebagos.
The game doesn't actually mention this content, leaving it entirely to the players' imagination.
Thinking of this, Qingyu suddenly realized—
!
If we have the chance in the future, how about taking the three sacred beasts to see their "relatives"?
If those three Paradoxical creatures were to undergo the Rainbow Trial, Suicune and the others' expressions would surely be quite amusing.
"I've changed my mind. Let's postpone the Rainbow Trial for a while longer."
97
Qingyu, who was about to nod, suddenly changed his attitude, leaving Marshall somewhat confused.
"I see."
However, it eventually accepted it.
This is certainly a good thing for Marshadow, as it gives the three Divine Beasts more time to prepare.
However—even now, it's not entirely clear whether it or Qingyu is the examiner of the Rainbow Trial.
It felt like a hero was taking time to test them.
At noon, Qingyu returned to her room to prepare for a nap, only to see Sylveon sitting in front of the Anywhere Door, seemingly puzzled by its appearance.
"Bu-i?"
When did a door appear in the room?
If it hadn't seen Lucario go inside just now, it wouldn't have noticed it at all.
Sylveon looked suspicious, but seeing that Qingyu didn't seem to find it strange, she began to doubt herself.
"This door is amazing, Sylveon!"
Seeing its appearance, Qingyu smiled and spoke.
"If you silently recite your destination before opening the door, it will take you across space to anywhere you want to go."
"What?! ∑(°△°)"
After hearing the trainer's words, Sylveon was startled and carefully examined the ordinary wooden door in front of it again.
Sure enough, it still didn't seem to have anything special about it.
But since the trainer said so, it must be correct!
"Want to give it a try?"
Seeing that it seemed very interested in the Anywhere Door, Qingyu smiled and asked.
"Buyi!"
Sylveon nodded seriously.
The Sunny Gym is great, of course, with many fellow trainers gathered together, but—
It was indeed still very concerned about the two places.
One of them is the Miare Museum of Art. I wonder if my previous painting of the "Perfect Dragon" will impress the master of Tutu Dog.
However, compared to the master, it has an even more important companion.
dream.
It had been quite a few days since Sylveon had seen Mewtwo, the creature it used to watch TV with and play with. At that moment, Sylveon suddenly missed it.
In addition, it's always been Mew who takes the initiative to visit the Sunny Gym, and it seems like it hasn't been to Mew's residence yet.
"Buee~"
So Sylveon jumped onto the bed with a back kick, wrapped two ribbons around Qingyu's hands, and tried to pull him up. Then she used another ribbon to pat the simple drawings that covered half of the wall.
One of them is a sketch it made based on a dream.
"Do you want me to take you to find the Dreamland?"
Qingyu seemed to understand what Sylveon meant, so she sat up and patted its head.
"Buee~"
Sylveon immediately nodded vigorously.
This time it really did ask the right person.
Very few people in the world know about this dreamlike dwelling.
And Qingyu happened to be one of the few people who knew this.
As the guardian of the World Tree, Mew has always lived inside the World Tree near Rota City.
However, it spends most of its time wandering around the world.
Qingyu then got out of bed, picked up Sylveon, and walked to the Anywhere Door.
He silently recited his destination in his mind, slowly grasped the handle, but did not immediately walk out after pushing open the door.
Outside the door was a lush and verdant landscape, with leaves and vines stretching all the way to the horizon, seemingly without end. Even the ground beneath one's feet appeared to be formed from the branches of a towering tree.
"Bu-i?"
Seeing this, Sylveon, who was being held by Qingyu, was driven by curiosity and wanted to jump out to see what was happening on the other side.
However, it was firmly locked in place by Qingyu's hands.
"Don't rush. The World Tree has a self-defense mechanism. If we don't get the Dream's certification, we might be attacked by the World Tree if we go in."
Qingyu patted Sylveon's head, signaling it to be patient.
This is the World Tree, used to reset the world and possessing a "factory reset" function. In addition to the two pillars and the Mew guarding this place, there are even more insane protective mechanisms.
If we rush in, it could cause trouble if something goes wrong.
So he quickly took a deep breath and shouted towards the other side of the Anywhere Door: "Dream, come out and play!!!"
Because the World Tree's structure resembles a corridor, Qingyu could even repeatedly hear the echo of her own voice.
If Fantasy Westward Journey goes back to its old ways of being a street hustler, then we'll just have to wait for another opportunity to play with it.
In short, Qingyu does not plan to enter the World Tree until he is added to the whitelist.
Fortunately, he was lucky today. Mew was "incredibly" not to have gone out to play, so he quickly teleported to Blue Feather and Sylveon.
"Misconception?"
Even Dream was quite surprised by their appearance.
Of course, it's more likely to be a surprise?
"Buee~"
Seeing that Mew was indeed in front of her, Sylveon immediately struggled in Qingyu's arms, and in a few moments it turned into a puddle of liquid and fell to the ground. It also stepped through the Anywhere Door and came into the World Tree.
"Buzz—!"
In an instant, the lush green surroundings, which had been a symbol of life, suddenly turned amber and emitted a sound that seemed to carry a warning.
The changes around them immediately startled Sylveon, and made Qingyu raise an eyebrow, thinking to himself, "Just as I thought."
If it weren't for the administrator, Dream, being secretly disposed of as an intruder might have gone unnoticed by anyone.
"Mwah!"
Just as he expected, upon noticing the change in the environment, Dream immediately let out a sharp cry.
As soon as it made its sound, the surrounding environment immediately returned to its previous state.
"Buyi————"
After being startled, Sylveon looked a little timid. After tentatively stretching out its foot and taking another step forward, and confirming that no strange mechanism had been triggered, it breathed a sigh of relief.
"Mew~"
Upon seeing this, Meng Huan immediately burst into laughter and began to spin upside down.
"Shouldn't we be able to freely enter the World Tree now?"
Qingyu poked the dreamy, fluffy body and asked this "master" with a smile.
"Mwah!"
Dream nodded repeatedly, while gesturing with its tail.
"I'll pass. You and Sylveon have fun."
Qingyu waved to them, then looked at Sylveon and added a comment.
"Remember to go home before dinner. Just come back through the Anywhere Door."
"And so is Dream."
"Mew~"
Mew made an easy "OK" sign with its tiny three-finger hand, and then led the curious Sylveon inside.
After watching them leave, Qingyu smiled and closed the Anywhere Door.
For Pokémon, this Anywhere Door will allow them to go wherever they want at any time, making travel much more convenient in the future.
As for myself—of course I'm useful too.
Lucario and Sylveon have both used it to find their respective teachers or friends; now it's time for me to "find partners" too!
Qingyu repeatedly recited her destination in her mind while pushing the door open again.
This time, his destination was, of course, the Institute of God and History.
Because no prior notice had been given, the research institute was rather quiet, almost completely silent.
Qingyu had somewhat guessed this, or rather, this might actually be better for him.
He then tiptoed up to the second floor and soon arrived at Zhulan's bedroom.
Perhaps because Zhu Lan was the only one in the research institute at the time, her room door was only slightly ajar, allowing Qing Yu to see what was happening inside.
A scholarly figure, dressed in plain glasses, appeared before me—the "Zhu Lan—a mythological scholar."
Perhaps because she was too focused, she didn't notice Qingyu at first.
It wasn't until Qingyu pushed open the door that she noticed her arrival.
"Blue Feather???"
Zhu Lan was clearly quite surprised by his appearance.
"I suddenly felt like seeing you, so I came over."
Qingyu smiled at her and offered only a casual explanation.
"Perhaps I can help you with something small?"
Anyway, we just had lunch, so there's still plenty of time.
Staying here in Sinnoh for a little while shouldn't be a problem, right?
