Chapter 604

After walking into the big room that seems to be the living room, noticing that Qingyu's attention was attracted by the notes on the bookshelf, a look of sadness appeared on Arven's face, and quickly returned to normal.

As for the "they" he mentioned, it naturally refers to Arven's parents, the doctor couple who have basically confirmed their death.

"During this period, besides taking care of Mabosstiff, whose body has become worse, I have also been organizing these research notes, hoping to find some clues related to Area Zero from them."

While Arven was talking, he took out several research logs that had been focused on from the table next to him.

"These are the contents I think might be useful. Inside are some Pokémon that seem to have appeared in Area Zero, and the contents are highly consistent with the contents of those two books."

"I guess these Pokémon should be the main reason why the League will block Area Zero, right?"

Arven doesn't know much about his parents' research content.

Because he lacked care since childhood, he didn't have any idea of inheriting his parents' mantle, and was determined to become an excellent Pokémon breeder, so naturally he wouldn't pay attention to these notes at home.

If it weren't for finding out what happened inside Area Zero, I am afraid he wouldn't have started investigating at all.

Qingyu reached out and took it, and glanced at it roughly.

At the top is an archive record about a Paradox Pokémon.

【Paldea Unknown Archive No. 04】

【Primitive Salamence!?】

【No, according to the records in "Scarlet Book", it should be more appropriate to call it "Roaring Moon".】

【The appearance is very similar to the appearance of Salamence after the Mega Evolution phenomenon, but there is currently no clear correlation. Perhaps it is the ancient ancestor of Salamence.】

【It will scatter feathers while flying at high speed and attacking prey. It is speculated that its temperament is even more ferocious than Salamence, and its combat power is very terrifying】

【Additional record: No. 04 individual was defeated and captured by Miraidon, confirming its attribute as Dragon + Dark.】

——Recorder, Dr. Sada.

(Roaring Moon, ancient Paradox form of Salamence)

Besides Roaring Moon, research records about Iron Valiant, Iron Hands, Sandy Shocks, and other Paradox species followed.

From the detailed records, it can be seen that the doctor couple's research on Paradox species is not shallow, and they have even captured a considerable part of them.

And...

Qingyu also saw a very familiar name in the research log.

What is called Miraidon defeated Roaring Moon???

Could it be that the Miraidon in my house is disguised by Ditto, so it only eats and sleeps?

Although he had psychological expectations that this waste Miraidon was actually very powerful before, when he really discovered the truth, Qingyu couldn't help but edit Miraidon.

After Qingyu browsed the notes, Arven, who was waiting on the side, spoke again:

"After seeing these research logs, Qingyu brother should also be able to guess why Area Zero was blocked."

"These powerful creatures classified as Paradox species should be the most important research projects of the League in Area Zero besides Terastal."

"And the last time they were so anxious to rush to the depths of Area Zero to continue the research plan, it should also be because they discovered something very important in the research."

"According to my understanding of them, it is highly likely to be a brand-new Paradox Pokémon, which would have a fatal attraction to those two people."

As soon as this was said, Qingyu was stunned.

Arven's analysis is undoubtedly correct.

The result he got by thinking about the notes by himself is already not much different from Qingyu's memory of the game plot...

And, he also put forward a conjecture that Qingyu had never thought about before.

Why did the doctor couple, who had already studied so many Paradox species, suddenly take the risk to go deep into Area Zero again?

Judging from the research notes just now, they are clearly very confident in Miraidon's strength, and ordinary Paradox species are not its opponents at all.

And if their goal is the second Miraidon like in the game, it doesn't have any special persuasiveness.

After all, what they drew in the lottery at the beginning was SSR, a Miraidon that is powerful and willing to help them defeat other Paradox species, there is no need to take risks to capture the second one.

And it happens that there is such a Paradox Pokémon that perfectly satisfies all the above conditions.

Corresponding to Miraidon, called "Winged King" by Heath—

Koraidon!

(Koraidon)

Theoretically, the only one who can defeat Miraidon and make it lose its heart is this king of ancient species.

Thinking of this, Qingyu gradually had a relatively clear conjecture about what happened in Area Zero.

After the doctor couple returned to Paldea from the depths of Area Zero, the special machine left in Area Zero accidentally discovered this powerful individual, so it attracted the attention of the two doctors.

It is not that they acted arbitrarily and caused the tragedy, but that Koraidon appeared first, making them have to go to deal with it.

Perhaps because Miraidon had already defeated many other Paradox species before, the two doctors became blindly confident, feeling that this time Miraidon could also defeat it.

And the result is...

After the tragedy in Area Zero, the lower laboratory completely lost contact, the machine controlled by the doctor couple completely lost control, and more and more Paradox species appeared in Area Zero, and could break through the blockade and enter Paldea at any time.

Therefore, Geeta temporarily closed the only entrance to Area Zero and sent Brassius to guard the nearby Mesagoza.

As for Miraidon and Mabosstiff, they escaped before the blockade of Area Zero, and only after several turns did they return to near Poco Path and were saved by themselves.

In this way, everything can be explained, and it is very reasonable.

After thinking clearly about everything, Qingyu couldn't help but sigh secretly.

In order to explore the unknown, the price paid is not small.

Not only important members of the League like himself and Arven's parents, but also researchers related to Paradox species research, and some teachers of Naranja Academy, all died in this accident.

Directly affected the future planning of the Paldea region.

Area Zero was also completely blocked, leaving only a very tricky mess.

But things have come to this, and we can only find a way to solve the problem.

Qingyu quickly made a decision in his heart.

It seems that not only to let Miraidon reignite its fighting spirit, even to solve the truth of the beginning, he really has to go to Area Zero.

Just when Qingyu was thinking, Arven on the side also brewed for a long time, and his eyes finally became firm, looking at Qingyu again:

"Qingyu brother, actually..."

"During this period, I can often receive messages from my parents on the computer in the laboratory. They seem to be trapped in Area Zero and are constantly asking for support."

"But I always feel a sense of discord..."

After hesitating for a moment, Arven took a deep breath and continued.

"Although the content sent is indeed from my parents' work email, and the tone is consistent with their usual work letters, but..."

"Even if it is them, it is impossible to use that tone that cannot feel any emotion, like robot-like text content, right?"

As soon as this was said, Qingyu's eyebrows frowned tightly.

That's right, after the incident in Area Zero, the doctor couple should have been involved in the machine on the spot and almost had no possibility of survival.

But in the laboratory in the deepest part of Area Zero, they still retained the AI they used to guard the time machine, almost perfectly replicating their behavioral logic, and have been actively seeking rescue from the outside world.

And in the game plot, it is this AI doctor who slowly guides the protagonist group to the time machine, and after a series of battles, successfully closes the time machine and defeats the fierce Paradox Pokémon, completely solving the crisis that may erupt in Area Zero at any time.

So...

Did I trigger the key plot?

Qingyu thought secretly in his heart.

Sure enough, one year before the incident, when the protagonist hasn't appeared yet, does he, the traveler, need to go up first?
