Chapter 550

"Mew?"

After hearing the very familiar name Celebi, Mew immediately tilted its head and looked curiously at Professor Oak opposite Xiang Qingyu.

It really didn't feel wrong before; this old man had a clear aura of time on him and had definitely had contact with Celebi!

Like itself, only humans and Pokémon with pure hearts could be recognized by Celebi, actively appearing in front of them, or even a wonderful time travel.

And in the nearby Viridian Forest, there happened to be a Celebi living there, and it was also a good friend of it.

It's just a pity that because it asked to go out to play too many times, this old friend of it became less and less welcoming to it later...

Even when it came to Viridian Forest before, it didn't find its figure.

Thinking of this, Mew couldn't help but shake its head secretly.

What a stingy ghost!

"Celebi...?"

Professor Oak's second question was also beyond Xiang Qingyu's expectation.

Celebi, in the Pokedex, was classified as a Time Travel Pokémon.

It was said that they possessed the power to travel through time, and at the same time, because they carried vigorous life energy and brought powerful life force to the forest where they lived, they were respected by ancient humans as the God of the Forest.

But in fact, when Xiang Qingyu made the first issue of the "Arceus Genesis" myth popular science video, he also consulted the information about Celebi in this world.

Although humans held Celebi in high respect, this extremely special Pokémon group seemed to rarely appear in front of humans.

Nearly forty years had passed since the last sighting of Celebi, and the last witness was exactly Professor Oak when he was young...

Was it because he mentioned Celebi in the video that made Professor Oak feel curious about this?

Xiang Qingyu thought secretly in his heart and began to deliberate on how to speak.

He certainly knew it very well, and even knew the past events that Professor Oak had never mentioned to anyone...

In a certain theatrical version of Pokémon, Professor Oak, when he was young, had traveled through time and space with Celebi by mistake and had a wonderful adventure with Ash forty years later.

This was also the reason why he took special care of Ash in the anime.

Even in the back mountain of the Oak Laboratory, the place he used to commemorate that Celebi was preserved.

Of course, he had never mentioned this to anyone, so Xiang Qingyu couldn't possibly say it out loud.

But from this experience, it could also be seen that the connection between Professor Oak and Celebi was not shallow.

It seemed that this question was testing his knowledge reserve about legendary beasts?

After thinking it through, Xiang Qingyu soon finished thinking and raised his head confidently.

"Just as I once said in "Arceus Genesis," Celebi is an elf of nature, and as one of the initial lives, but it is also a bit different from Mew."

"Celebi possesses a part of the power to control time, and at the same time can also give abundant life energy to other humans and Pokémon."

"It is said that wherever there is a large forest, there is a high probability that Celebi lives there, so they should have their own group."

"It's just that, perhaps because of the reduction in forest area over the years, Celebi has also gradually faded out of human vision."

Of course, this was just a relatively official statement.

The real situation was that Celebi was actually a group of street wanderers similar to Mew, plus time travel made them have no concept of time at all, and disappearing for decades was just a drop in the bucket.

It's just that, compared to Mew, they were still slightly more reliable, at least they knew their responsibilities...

But of course, he couldn't say these words out loud; after all, he had to leave a little face for these legendary existences, otherwise, it would be very embarrassing if they met in the future, right?

Xiang Qingyu said a few words simply, which made Professor Oak nod frequently.

He really didn't guess wrong; Xiang Qingyu had a considerable degree of understanding of various legendary Pokémon, and it was not limited to a certain region.

Celebi was said to be distributed in various regions, but the last person to witness them was himself forty years ago...

If he didn't specifically understand the information in the Guandou region, Xiang Qingyu couldn't possibly know this news.

This kid, sure enough, is a versatile person.

Perhaps it was because of his experience when he was young that made him interested in these Pokémon?

After watching Xiang Qingyu's video, Professor Oak immediately contacted Dr. Araragi in the Sinnoh region and also learned some information about Xiang Qingyu from her mouth.

Born in Sinnoh, he had been very interested in mythological knowledge under the influence of his childhood sweetheart since he was a child, but later he went to Paldea with his parents and gradually lost contact.

But from his current knowledge reserve, which could be called terrifying and was basically a dimensionality reduction strike to his peers, it could also be seen that he had not slacked off at all over the years.

Being able to grow rapidly into a Gym Leader trainer who could stand on his own, sufficient knowledge reserve was also one of the aids for him to become stronger.

Following Professor Oak's nod, this second pass could also be considered passed.

And the researchers around, at this time, did not have the leisure to chatter anymore, but held paper and pens one after another, starting to record the content of their conversation.

A considerable number of them were high-achieving students in some disciplines of Pokémon research at Celadon University, so they would conduct frontline research here at Professor Oak's place.

And the two conversations between Xiang Qingyu and Professor Oak just now, whether it was the exploration of Eevee cultivation or Celebi, a legendary existence currently little known to humans, were all first-hand materials that could be directly taken as topics...

And it was a "super" topic that had been double-certified by Professor Oak and Teacher Yu and had absolutely guaranteed credibility!

If they could start working on it quickly, graduation was in sight...

The great kindness of Teacher Yu was remembered by these researchers who "wanted to graduate too much."

Seeing Professor Oak smile and nod, Xiang Qingyu also breathed a sigh of relief.

With this, only the last question remained.

No wonder Professor Oak would say that his assessment wouldn't be too difficult for him; it turned out that they were all questions that were professionally aligned.

The first question examined his views on initial Pokémon and his insights during the cultivation process;

The second question took the recently updated myth popular science video as an entry point to verify whether he had sufficient knowledge reserve.

Then, if the third question didn't have any accidents... it should be related to the main content of his live broadcast, right?

That is, tactics?

Just when Xiang Qingyu was thinking, Professor Oak soon spoke again.

"The last question, Xiang Qingyu."

"In the first question just now, you mentioned the deep bond you established with Eevee."

"Then, in your opinion..."
