Logically speaking, the name Cyclizar should have appeared only in modern times. At least before motorcycles existed, it should have had another name.
Or perhaps motorcycles in this world had been developed through biomimicry, which would explain it.
It was hardly important, though. Whether ordinary Cyclizar or the Paradox Pokémon Miraidon and Koraidon, the tire-like structures on their bodies served little practical purpose.
Koraidon ran on four legs, while Miraidon had evolved a low-flying airship form, relying primarily on jet-powered flight.
The ordinary shared bicycles on campus were relatively safe. At least nobody was bored enough to throw them into the lake, hurting others without gaining anything themselves.
Shared bicycles certainly could not match Cyclizar for speed. Cyclizar could run at 120 kilometers per hour and came with built-in emergency avoidance, actively dodging obstacles with an extremely high degree of intelligence.
Human-developed AI fell far short of them. Cyclizar understood what to avoid far better than inexperienced drivers did.
They were accustomed to living alongside humans because they could use human body heat to warm their backs, maintaining their vigor during bitterly cold weather.
[It was an oversight by the caretaker. They weren't paying attention when they let the Cyclizar out for exercise, and some wandered off.
Wait at home for a bit. I'll notify someone at the school to collect them.]
In the depths of winter, Cyclizar instinctively sought warmer places. According to what Lü Ming had found out, some of the missing Cyclizar had already been located, one after another.
The places they had been found included, but were not limited to, the boiler room, the electrical substation, and the guardhouse. Now Xin Mu's backyard could be added to that list.
After all, once the exams were over and most students had returned to campus, most of the
