Chapter 403: The Cyan-Blue World

Outside the city is the wilderness, and travel between cities naturally requires passing through the wilderness where wild Pokémon appear.

Buses generally choose routes where the wild Pokémon nearby are not strong and the danger level is low.

On this route from Rongcheng to Yangcheng, most Pokémon are at the Ordinary level. Elite-level Pokémon are not encountered for hundreds of years, let alone Professional or Gym-level ones.

These Pokémon mostly live in rarely visited mountains or secret realms. Even if such Pokémon are active near League routes, they are driven away by trainers dispatched by the League in the form of missions.

Furthermore, most transportation vehicles are equipped with accompanying trainers to act as escorts.

But the bus Su Hao was riding was slightly different...

It was driven by an Ordinary-level trainer.

The term "Ordinary-level trainer" was something Su Hao learned from Li Hua and the others.

While he was in seclusion at the Electric Canyon, the League launched a new trainer system that had been prepared for a long time.

Below the Professional level, three stages were added: Novice Trainer, Ordinary-level Trainer, and Elite-level Trainer.

The purpose of these, simply put, was to make entering various secret realms more convenient. Once identity was verified, one could enter the secret realm directly without the cumbersome verification of strength.

Su Hao was now an Elite-level trainer.

Originally, this rating required an assessment, and one would need three Elite-level Pokémon to have a chance of passing.

But after the finals ended, people from the League came directly to him and stated that Su Hao's identity information had been upgraded to Elite-level trainer.

That was great; no need to spend time making another trip.

Thinking about his subsequent arrangements, Su Hao squinted his eyes and fell asleep involuntarily.

This time, the dream was exceptionally clear.

"It seems a bit hot... Is the bus air conditioner broken?"

Su Hao, who was sleeping soundly, suddenly felt the surrounding temperature was abnormally high, enough to make someone with his constitution break into a sweat.

Su Hao felt his body was exceptionally heavy, surrounded by powerful pressure, making it very difficult even to move his eyelids to open his eyes.

He wanted to open his mouth to call for Diancie and the others, but he couldn't even open his mouth, and his vocal cords couldn't even make a wheezing sound.

The Aura and Viridian powers on his body seemed to have disappeared, and he couldn't even call out the system.

How come this system is gone again???

There was no other way; it seemed he could only rely on himself.

Despite Su Hao using all his might to try to control his body to stand up, in the end, he could only twitch his fingers slightly.

Just as he was at his wit's end, a calm, magnetic, but somewhat blurry mature male voice suddenly rang out.

"Huh? How did the signal suddenly connect?"

The owner of the voice sounded surprised, even somewhat incredulous.

Signal?

"Sure enough, it's you again... the only existence in this world that can connect and communicate with me."

Connect, communicate?

Su Hao didn't understand. What was this voice talking about?

He recognized the words, but what did this passage mean?

"It seems your spiritual power is not enough to wake up in my spiritual world, just like a short while ago..."

Su Hao could tell that the owner of the voice sounded lonely, lost, and had a hint of hope?

"This is the last bit of power I have left... I hope you can hear the following words and then come find me..."

Last bit of power?

Su Hao felt a bit panicked. He really wanted to open his mouth to say he could hear it, but his body still wouldn't obey him.

The voice started talking to itself, but this time the voice was clearer and more distinct than any time before: "Come to the first tower and find me, human who possesses the qualifications to become my hero..."

As the voice entered his ears, Su Hao realized that his senses, which had been blurry and only able to feel the scorching heat, suddenly became clear.

In his ears was the roaring sound of raging flames, and his body could feel the extremely high temperature filling the entire space... a temperature even higher than the Incineroar's full-power Flare Blitz.

Suddenly, Su Hao felt his body lighten.

At the same time, he felt himself being irresistibly sucked away by some kind of suction force.

In a panic, Su Hao finally opened his eyes.

After opening his eyes, a cyan-blue world appeared in his field of vision, with boundless, burning cyan-blue flames filling the entire space.

Su Hao was stunned. If it was cyan-blue flames, then that wouldn't be...

He only looked for a moment, and before Su Hao could think carefully, a feeling of the world spinning came from the depths of his soul. When he opened his eyes again, Su Hao found that he was still sitting on the bus, as if he had never been anywhere...

"Whoosh, whoosh, whoosh—!"

The bus's air conditioner was blowing cold air; this was the driver's Ice-type Pokémon using a very low-power Icy Wind move in the central area, which was coming out through the various vents.

The bus TV was not far from Su Hao's line of sight, just playing the Yangcheng news channel.

Su Hao sat up straight, his body completely dry, as if he had never been to that world burning with flames.

He sighed, never having thought that being able to freely control his body could be considered a kind of happiness.

Su Hao looked at the sleeping passengers nearby and silently counted in his heart without making a sound: "Aura and Viridian powers are both functioning normally, and I can sense the Pokémon in their balls..."

"The system panel seems as if nothing happened; it can be opened normally..."

The Spirit World was the same, and this time was the same; this system has malfunctioned twice in a row.

Is it actually reliable?

This system only appeared after he transmigrated, and its arrival was suspicious.

Although he wouldn't go so far as to play conspiracy theories, he always felt that this system wasn't like the ones in other novels... ===== CHAPTER 404 =====
