Chapter 915
Although the entire Pokémon is full of motorcycle elements, Cyclizar still runs on four legs.
This Pokémon has a gentle temperament and is often used as a transport Pokémon in cities and even the wild in the Paldea region; like Lapras, it is a very suitable Pokémon for riding.
In this Dragon Cave, it is clear that Cyclizar has also taken on the responsibility of helping the Dragon Tamer clan move around on the ground within their living area.
Besides the Cyclizar "Uncle Wen" was riding, another slightly smaller, female Cyclizar was following beside him.
Long Wen dismounted from the Cyclizar, gently patted its head with a smile, and then looked at Long Ningyan, saying, "Ningyan, welcome home. Your parents are also waiting for you at home."
"Mm!" Long Ningyan nodded, stroked the female Cyclizar that was affectionately rubbing its head against her, and turned to introduce it to Su Hao: "Junior Su, this is my uncle, Long Wen, and he is also the person in charge of your upcoming trial."
Before Su Hao could speak, Long Wen reached out with a kind expression and said, "You must be Su Hao, the trial-taker introduced by Bai Du. Please allow me, on behalf of the Dragon Tamer clan, to express our apologies for Long Tianxing's unauthorized desert trial."
Su Hao accepted Long Wen's apology without hesitation; after all, he represented the apology of the overall power-holders of the "Dragon Tamer clan," not Long Tianxing's personal apology.
However, for such a vast and ancient family to express an apology to an ordinary college student like him was already a sign of utmost sincerity.
Well, he would see if there was any compensation; if there was, he wouldn't keep a grudge against the Dragon Tamer clan.
He would just keep it against Long Tianxing alone.
Seeing Su Hao accept the apology "without" any hard feelings, Long Wen's expression showed a hint of admiration.
Should one say he is worthy of being a genius secretly watched by the Alliance? This perspective is far higher than that arrogant brat Long Tianxing's.
With his smile toward Su Hao becoming a bit more sincere, Long Wen first reminded Long Ningyan, "Leave the rest to me."
Long Ningyan nodded helplessly. Although she really wanted to reveal more information to Su Hao, Long Wen had arrived too quickly, and she really couldn't intervene in front of him.
Long Ningyan had no choice but to wave goodbye to Su Hao and ride her Cyclizar toward home.
After Su Hao waved goodbye to Long Ningyan as she merged into the crowd on her Cyclizar, Long Wen made a "please" gesture and said to Su Hao, "Let's go, trial-taker Su Hao?"
"Mm."
In the Dragon Tamer clan's guest room, Long Wen remained the only person in charge of receiving Su Hao.
Su Hao had left that observation deck with the excellent view by riding another Cyclizar that Long Wen had called over with a whistle.
It must be said that there is a reason why Cyclizar is called one of the most suitable Pokémon for humans to ride.
The feeling of riding it for Su Hao could be summed up in one word—comfortable.
Riding it, there was almost no sense of bumping.
Long Wen even said that an excellent Cyclizar can reach a speed of 120k when carrying a person.
It is the best choice besides flying Pokémon when one occasionally needs to move stealthily on the ground or travel.
On the way, Su Hao also roughly learned from Long Wen about the next content of the so-called Dragon Cave trial.
The previous trial of finding the way back to the oasis station from the desert was to test whether he was qualified to enter the Dragon Cave secret realm, and its deeper meaning was for Su Hao's safety.
Long Wen's exact words were: "If you can't even break through the desert, you'd better save it for the even more dangerous Dragon Cave; it wouldn't be good if you lost your life."
Long Wen unfolded a projection, displaying general information about several areas inside the Dragon Cave, and hinted to Su Hao: "Just like the non-disclosure agreement you signed, you can't take photos or reveal detailed details about the inside of the Dragon Cave to the outside, okay?"
Seeing Su Hao nod in response, Long Wen pulled up an image and continued, "The Dragon Cave secret realm can be roughly divided into four areas."
"Area A, Plains Area."
"Area B, Lake and Island Area."
"Area C, Canyon Area."
"Area D, Forest Area."
Casting his gaze toward the "map," Su Hao frowned; the precision of a "world map," a "national map," and even a "regional map" are different.
How should one put it regarding the map Long Wen showed... it was only slightly more detailed than a world map.
Long Wen, as if he hadn't noticed Su Hao's expression, continued, "As one of the highest-level heritage sites and secret realms of the Shenzhou Alliance, although the resources in the Dragon Cave are several times greater than the outside world, the competition remains fierce."
"The wild Dragon-type or sub-dragon Pokémon here have all survived cruel struggles, just like the one-in-a-thousand 'thousand-mile horses' among horses."
"It is very difficult to travel from one area to another, so several eye-catching 'outposts' have been set up in each area. Although traveling through the outposts will take a long detour, the safety factor is the highest."
"Of course, if you think your ability is outstanding, you can also choose not to pass through the outposts and travel directly from one area to another through the territories of dragons with strong territorial awareness."
"However, very few people can do this."
After speaking, Long Wen looked at Su Hao, the young man who had set the record for passing the first trial in the shortest time.
He felt that even for Su Hao, passing directly through the territories of various fierce dragons was not very realistic.
Therefore, this is where this compensation can be used.
Long Wen pressed the button on the laser pointer in his hand, and the map enlarged significantly, while many details began to emerge.
"This is..." Su Hao's expression was slightly stunned; the precision of the map had changed from a "world map" to a "national map"!
Long Wen smiled, "Although ordinary trial-takers can only choose an area to enter from that map."
"But after internal discussion within the clan, as compensation for that brat Long Tianxing's outrageous behavior, we are making an exception to open a more detailed map for you to choose from."
