Chapter 1459

Time arrived at deep night.

N and the others were uniformly arranged to stay at the reception building on the west side of the school.

This place is specifically provided for outside guests, such as Zhulan whom Baimu hoodwinked into giving a lecture, Doctor Da Mu, and so on.

Therefore the lodging conditions are quite luxurious.

N went to sleep early; he had agreed with Baimu to go to the Pokemon Paradise together tomorrow.

Actually he could completely go on his own, but N felt that since he had handed the house there over to Baimu, and Baimu had turned around and handed it to Mewtwo, he had no way to go there on his own initiative.

Whether as a gift or a lease, neither would do.

Baimu found his unique stubborn streak a bit unbearable, so he could only agree.

Additionally, upon learning N was on Academy Island, A Wu also came rushing from Silicon Beryllium City without regard for distance. The earliest person to know N was him, yet unexpectedly N's first meeting upon returning to Orre was with Baimu; A Wu felt a bit put out.

However, the joy of reuniting with an old friend occupied the majority.

Shan Ren's reason for not coming was being too busy, and N understood this very well — the conflict between the two of them had long since been resolved due to Queen Leiguanwang's arrival, it was absolutely not intentional avoidance of each other.

This could be seen from N preparing to go to Silicon Beryllium City to catch a plane and leave, which showed he was preparing to take the initiative to go see Shan Ren.

Night at Orre Academy.

After waves of wailing rose and fell, it appeared exceptionally tranquil.

Baimu also has a corresponding residence here; N's arrival dispelled his plan to return to Platinum Mountain, so he simply stayed one night first.

Then came...

"Come on."

He looked at the light screen before him, already lying properly on the bed.

Preparing to live another person's life!

After Baimu redeemed the orange talent and made a series of choices, he clicked start simulation.

The next instant.

His consciousness drifted beyond the ninth heaven, as if detached from the mortal world and arriving at a higher dimension; multi-colored spheres appeared one by one — blue, black, gold, pink, and gray.

No time to examine closely; blazing golden light descended before him, a pair of enormous eyes devoid of any human emotion gazed over, and released a light that devoured everything.

As if waiting for a game animation to load, his vision turned into boundless darkness.

In reality.

The shiny Gengar playing games by the bedside sensed something, swiftly flew to the trainer's side, then turned pale with shock.

"Gengar~! Gengar!!"

Baimu! Something happened to Baimu!!

It shouted loudly, hurriedly calling its companions.

Soon Bastiodon and a crowd of Pokemon gathered at the bedside; Blissey approached Baimu to check his condition.

"Happy."

There's no problem.

It shook its head at the other Pokemon.

Before the angry Hydreigon could question the shiny Gengar, the shiny Gengar took the lead in explaining what was wrong —

Baimu's soul had become somewhat illusory.

As if he didn't exist in this world, as if he would disappear soon.

Duraludon and Galarian Corsola, after probing, also reached a consistent conclusion, which quickly caused an uproar.

"Groar!"

Bastiodon let out a low roar, signaling everyone to quiet down, then dispatched the shiny Gengar to use the phone to call Queen Leiguanwang, having it and Spectrier come over, and had Milotic go find the Three Divine Pillars at the fastest speed.

Last was Porygon-Z.

It was responsible for contacting Hu Pa and Furong at Shenshan.

The soul issue exceeded the scope they could resolve; professional personnel had to be brought in.

Of course, Bastiodon also hoped Duraludon and Galarian Corsola could think of something; one is an old hand in the spirit world, the other can become the spirit world's gatekeeper at any time, favored by the will of the spirit world.

But unfortunately, Baimu's soul had not left his body, so they were also helpless.

The bear disciple couldn't squeeze in from the outside, only able to worry anxiously.

Washed Cui Zorua lay slumped in a heap, expression very complex, impossible to tell joy from sorrow.

The remaining Pokemon were quite bewildered, completely unable to understand what had happened.

Munchlax thought very calmly, suddenly jumped onto the bed, reached for the Thousand Worlds Band in the trainer's arms, just about to say something, when Baimu lying on the bed abruptly opened his eyes.

"Cough!"

He was startled by the Pokemon surrounding him, "What are you all doing?"

The crowd of Pokemon stared blankly at him, then either breathed sighs of relief or excitedly pounced to hug him.

Making Baimu quite helpless.

After soothing this group of Pokemon who acted like they were attending a funeral, he learned the reason from Porygon-Z.

"..."

Baimu held his forehead, "Quick! Call it off, call it off! Tell Queen Leiguanwang and them I'm fine!"

Porygon-Z replied: "Already said it, Hu Pa and Furong's side is fine, but Queen Leiguanwang still wants to come over."

Thud!

A dull explosive sound came from outside the room.

It was Milotic swift as the wind carrying the shrunken Three Divine Pillars rushing over; too anxious, it directly blasted the outer door down.

Baimu didn't know what to say.

"Ah-ga—hiss?"

After Milotic rushed in, it saw the Trainer sitting on the bed, its face full of "you're not dead" shock.

The three deity pillars following behind had their facial dot-matrices flashing wildly.

"Du-du-du?"

Is it April Fools' Day today?

The Rock Pillar told a joke.

Baimu got off the bed and apologized to them, recalling the content seen in the dream, then looking at Bastiodon, as well as the other Pokemon.

"Mm, for a period of time from now on I'll often be like this, you guys don't make a fuss."

Observation permission actually affecting his soul was something he completely hadn't anticipated; could it be that the scenes seen before the simulation started were all real?

Did he really go to the realm where Arceus resides, and use it as a transit point to travel through time and space for the simulation?

The probability feels very high.

Although it's unclear why similar situations didn't appear before, from when he lay down and fell asleep to waking up was only three minutes, so safety shouldn't be a big problem.

After seeing off the three deity pillars and barely propping up the shattered door panel, Baimu sat on the sofa, recalling this simulation.

The simulation subject was a Unova sailor, who very easily took the Huiguan Tournament championship, then in the Unova Champion League successively defeated Wailord and Vaccinium, and finally lost to Gardevoir.

Without a doubt, this simulation's time is extraordinarily close to the modern era.

What caught Baimu's attention was that this sailor originally received an invitation from the League, saying that after Alder retired, one of the Elite Four would likely become Champion, and he had a probability of filling the vacant Elite Four spot.

But the sailor refused.

Only because during his journey, he joined a secret organization; this organization aimed to liberate the populace of a certain remote region, and was preparing some kind of plan.

The simulation footage finally froze on the sailor preparing to head to that remote region, to rescue many trainers who had been swindled and trapped there.

Parallel world? The past?

Baimu quickly got the answer through the Porygon Phone: it was this world's past.

As for the sailor's current whereabouts, there was no relevant news on the internet, and he didn't remember this face either, thinking he was most likely one of that wave of people who rushed to aid Silph City back then.

To simultaneously deal with the personnel stationed in Silph City and Huang Tie Town, the rescue organization adopted a divide-and-conquer tactic; Silph City took the bulk, Huang Tie Town took the smaller portion.

After the region was liberated, many of those who rushed to aid Silph City withdrew, leaving only locals to remain behind.

Now...

The sailor is most likely a high-ranking International Police officer by now, right?

In the final reward options, he subconsciously chose Time-Space Traversal, but returning to the past, what could he even do?

Would it instead cause some change in the world?

Time in the Pokemon world is rather special; a changed past inevitably affects the future, precisely because of this Ash was able to save the world from the hooves of a rampaging Arceus.

"Let's shelve it for now."

Baimu prepared to keep it for now; recently he also had no leisure time to let him wander around, there were still many things he needed to be busy with.

He looked at Bastiodon again, then didn't say much more, soothed the panicked bear disciple once, then explained to the hastily arrived Queen Leiguanwang, and fell sound asleep together with them.

However, this night was destined to not be peaceful.

The Pokemon woke up many times, tiptoeing close to the Trainer to check his condition.

The Shiny Gengar's jumpiness truly made this bunch lose sleep, afraid Baimu might have some mishap.

The bear disciple was the most worried.

It had only just finished choosing its partner not long ago, and absolutely didn't want the other party to kick the bucket right away; at least they had to live to Master Mustard's age, right?

"Gu-ma..."

Life's not easy, little bear sighs.

Hisuian Zorua had a nightmare, dreaming Baimu died, and it returned to the lab to once again live the days of having food come to its mouth and clothes come to its hands, but due to its unrestrained gorging, its body grew larger and larger—

Finally with a bang it exploded.

This scared it into a cold sweat; it immediately ran to Baimu's side, placed its claws under his nostrils, sensing whether he had any breath.

After confirming it was just a nightmare, Hisuian Zorua finally felt at ease.

"Wu..."

But then it felt it was really crazy, clearly wanting to return to the lab so much, how could it have such a terrifying dream?

The fat fox couldn't quite understand its own thoughts.

A night of tossing and turning.

When Baimu woke, he discovered most Pokemon looked listless, looking not just like they hadn't slept well, but even having a feeling of having fought hundreds of rounds with something.

"You guys... forget it, rest well."

In just one night, he fully realized that if he had an accident, how panicked his Pokemon would be.

This made Baimu feel melancholy about his own eventual passing.

However, considering he was still very young, he quickly adjusted his mindset, ate breakfast together with N and the others who had long since gotten up, then rushed to the Pokemon Park.

Mewtwo's side had already received the news from the Porygon Phone yesterday; it, which was very resistant to humans, rarely accepted the visit of N and the New Team Plasma members.

After all, it had lived in the Park for more than a day or two; early on from the villa's original residents, it had learned of N's existence.

It was very curious: was there really such a person who would place Pokemon above humans?

And not long after Baimu and the others left.

A ring of light opened.

Accompanied by noisy clamor, Anxier rushed out in quick steps, followed by Shengcai, Dailuo, and Piru, and finally Taini.

"You guys are really too disloyal; if I don't come back, were you planning to abandon me again?"

Taini had no time to observe the surroundings, her mouth full of complaints.

Who could have imagined, he just went out to work part-time to earn money for the Super Z Team, finally got a day off, happily returned to the inn, and the person was gone!

Disappeared!

Asking others yielded nothing either, as if she had evaporated from the human world!

Those few days Taini was truly worried sick, afraid Shengcai and the others had met with some accident, whether they were trapped in some other dimension together with An Xiner.

Result: you tell her they went to the parallel world to play?

And even made many new friends?

What do you mean they just came back after watching the Eight Masters tournament, what the hell are the Eight Masters! A battle royale of eight regional champions?

Why didn't such a good thing occur to me?

Taini was filled with grief and indignation.

What made her lose it most was that Shengcai and the others actually still planned to go!

And not take her again!

"How could that be! We haven't left yet, we were waiting for you." Dailuo naturally couldn't admit it.

Shengcai nodded vigorously, she wasn't the type to let down a good female friend, of course if you're too busy and have no time to come, she can't do anything about it.

Piru didn't speak.

His heart was still immersed in the clothing design he had submitted to the studio.

His younger sister praised the new clothes he designed to the skies, Grandmother naturally hadn't replied, but he believed he could definitely conquer her.

This month's effort wasn't in vain!

After An Xiner came to the academy, the first thing she did was run to the principal's office to find Baimu, her birth mother was still in some distant region filming in a closed set, the frequency of her actively contacting An Xiner was actually quite high, but regarding her not replying for a long time, she wasn't too panicked either.

After all, An Xiner had informed Karuni of many things long ago.

"Baimu? Baimu has something and went out."

Xiao Yin said gently.

Busy and fulfilling work wore away the hostility in his heart, this Rocket Team young master fully displayed his inherited excellent administrative genes, handling all matters in an orderly fashion.

Everyone in the school also knew there was such a principal's assistant, and respected him greatly.

This kind of recognition gained entirely through his own efforts made Xiao Yin quite pleased, at a young age he already had the mindset of an older person.

However, not everyone looked at him favorably.

Adeku's grandson Fanshilang often came to find trouble, making something out of nothing.

Xiao Yin understood Fanshilang was jealous of him, only because Adeku often praised him, and expressed hope that Fanshilang could become someone like him.

Fanshilang was very displeased, therefore deliberately picked fights.

Of course, this kid was quite smart, didn't do anything over the line, only showed up when he was eating or resting.

Recently Xiao Yin was constantly instigated to go challenge the Legendary Giant.

Although he himself also had this idea, he didn't really want to listen to Fanshilang, feeling like he was being provoked into taking the bait.

Right now.

When An Xiner inquired about his whereabouts, Fanshilang showed up.

"This Grandpa graces you with his presence! Hurry up and come out——Hm?"

He saw An Xiner in the room, and asked in surprise: "You're that guy Baimu's relative, right?"

"... You, this person, so rude!"

An Xiner was displeased with his tone addressing Baimu, that guy this guy, how could he address an elder like that!

Fanshilang chuckled: "Just a verbal tic, why be so calculative! Little squirt!"

"Little squ——"

An Xiner got even angrier.

Seeing this, Xiao Yin hurriedly blocked in front of An Xiner, "Fanshilang! If you have something to say, say it!"

But before Fanshilang could speak, Shengcai and Taini appeared outside, the two saw the tense atmosphere inside, and for a moment their expressions were strange.

Taini, styling herself Super Z Team captain, seeing her companion An Xiner seemingly being bullied, immediately stepped forward, "Excuse me, what do you want to do to my club member?"

"Club member?"

Fanshilang looked at this strangely dressed girl, then looked at Shengcai, his expression somewhat contemptuous, "Are you strong?"

Taini instantly felt furious, "Come! Pokemon battle! I'll make you convinced heart and mouth!"

"Couldn't ask for more!"

Fanshilang laughed non-stop.

The two quickly left the principal's office, leaving the other three.

Xiao Yin was speechless for a moment, "Sigh, idiot."

"You okay An Xiner." Shengcai showed concern for An Xiner, and said to her: "Don't worry about Taini, Fanshilang...... is very weak."

Her words made An Xiner freeze.

Xiao Yin twitched his mouth corner, he was actually very curious where Baimu found Shengcai, in just a few days since "enrollment" she had beaten all the trainers in the school who considered themselves strong, Fanshilang was no exception.

If not for her having no such intention herself, the current Battle Club president should be Shengcai.

That Taini......

Probably also very strong.
