"However, we still have things to do in this city, and it will probably take three days before we can go with you."
Scott patted his round belly and waved his hand with a smile:
"It's okay, just three days."
Scott, as the person in charge of Hoenn Region Battle Frontier, has a very familiar personality.
After confirming that both Ash and Lu Chen were willing to go to Battle Frontier, he randomly found a seat and sat down.
Chatted nonchalantly with Ash and the others.
"Ash, let me tell you, what you have to try when you come to Hoenn Region is the banana on Tropius's neck and the milk of Miltank to make a milkshake!"
"Not only does it have a delicate and rich flavor, but it also has a rich aroma of tropical fruits!"
"It is definitely a must-try food when you come to Hoenn Region!"
"It's true! This milkshake is so delicious!"
Just when Ash and the others were still surprised at how delicious this milkshake was.
Lu Chen has silently chosen to take out the payment code and pack up all the remaining milkshakes in the boss's stall.
Take it back to Aerodactyl and Gouging Fire to try it together.
Then Aaron asked him if the food in this restaurant was delicious.
After a while, I asked Ash what they thought of the weather in Hoenn Region.
"But I'm also a little curious." Scott picked up the cup and took a sip of water.
"Aren't you all Kanto Region's trainers? Why did you come to Hoenn Region together? Are you here to travel?"
Ash opened his mouth and answered, "We are here to visit Aura--"
A hand slammed on his back, and he slapped back the second half of the sentence.
Ash choked and looked back.
I saw Misty retracting his hand as if nothing had happened, with a decent smile on his face.
"We are here for a trip." Gary on the side took over the conversation with a natural tone.
"By the way, I'll accompany Brother Lu Chen to find an online friend."
"Netizen?" Scott blinked and patted his chest again.
"If he is a trainer in this city, then I should know him too."
Ash rubbed his back, but still couldn't control his mouth:
"Lu Chen, the netizen I know is Hoenn champion Steven Mr. Xu."
"?"
Scott's smile froze on his face.
The cup in his hand stopped mid-air, and his mouth slowly opened.
That round belly rose and fell with his breathing, and coupled with his dull expression, he looked like a surprised Snorlax.
"Steven?! Champion Steven?! He is also in this city?!"
Scott's voice rose several times, and other guests in the restaurant were startled.
See this scene.
Scott quickly lowered his voice, but the shock on his face did not diminish at all.
Then Scott seemed to have thought of it and rubbed his hands, his little eyes glowed, and he looked at Lu Chen.
"I wonder if I can come with you?"
Ash tilted his head and said a heartbreaking word:
"Didn't you say you know the trainers in this city?"
Scott is not embarrassed at all, the expression on his face is as excited as a child:
"That's different! That's Steven!"
But when faced with this question from Scott, Lu Chen did not answer Scott directly, but showed a somewhat playful expression.
After all, Scott is a person who has been struggling in society for many years.
He soon realized that his request was somewhat abrupt.
So he explained to Lu Chen:
"I just need a little introduction from you."
Lu Chen said nothing.
Scott looked at Lu Chen's indifferent face, and his heart began to beat.
Scott He could see that although Lu Chen was young, he was definitely not a character to be fooled.
Ordinary props or resources may not be able to impress him.
Scott rummaged in the pocket beside him and thought about it for a while.
Scott suddenly remembered what he could use to impress Lu Chen.
Scott quickly ran to his sports car.
Then a person got into the sports car and groped around inside for a while.
Finally, I pulled out something from the inside.
A glass bead.
It looks ordinary, made of transparent glass.
There was something vaguely moving inside.
Scott wiped the sweat from his head, put it in his palm, and pushed it towards Lu Chen.
"I obtained this glass bead by chance."
"Although it is ordinary, after testing by several research institutions, this thing contains a very special energy."
"It's just that no one knows what its use is yet, but this thing will definitely have huge room for appreciation in the future..."
Scott originally thought that it would take a long time for Lu Chen to become slightly interested in this thing.
As a result, before he finished speaking, he noticed that the expressions of everyone opposite him had changed.
Ash's eyes suddenly widened.
Misty covered her mouth in surprise.
Even Lu Chen raised his eyebrows slightly.
Scott is confused.
He didn't know what happened, but he could feel that the atmosphere on the table changed after he took out the glass bead.
Although Scott doesn't recognize this ordinary-looking glass bead.
But Ash knows them!
Because this glass bead looks ordinary.
It is very similar to the stone Lucario Mega Evolution held in Aaron's hand at that time.
Lu Chen looked at the glass bead and felt the faint energy fluctuations flowing inside.
Lu Chen's face was calm, showing no trace of emotion. He slowly raised his head and looked at Scott.
"Do you really want to give me this thing and let me take you to Steven?"
"Yes."
Scott answered subconsciously.
Lu Chen Without thinking, he reached out and took the glass bead, weighed it in his palm.
"Okay, deal, I'll take you to Steven in three days."
Scott looked at Lu Chen's crisp movements.
Then I looked at Ash and their expressions that were hesitant to speak.
Suddenly, an unpleasant feeling came over my heart.
Did you lose money on this transaction?
But he quickly suppressed this idea.
It's okay, just use a glass bead of unknown use in exchange for the opportunity to meet Steven.
It must be earned with blood.
Your future self will definitely not regret it... right?
And Lu Chen plays with Mega Stone in his hand.
What was on my mind was another thing.
Lu Chen raised his head and looked at Scott with a tangled expression in front of him, thinking in his heart.
I hope that Mr. Scott will know the true value and function of this stone one day in the future.
I won't hide in the toilet and cry with regret.
Soon afterwards, the two parties exchanged phone numbers,
We agreed to meet here three days later and parted ways at the door of the restaurant.
As soon as Scott left, Ash finally couldn't hold it in anymore.
"Brother Lu Chen! Is this the stone that helped Aaron and Lucario evolve?"
Brock also came over, his eyes behind the glasses were frighteningly bright:
"Yes, Lucario of Aaron can actually degenerate after evolving, which really shocked us!"
"Brother Lu Chen, do you know the secret inside this?"
Gary rarely spoke proactively, with a hint of curiosity and inquiry in his tone.
Lu Chen lifted the Mega Stone and looked at the sun.
The blue-purple luster flows inside the glass beads, like some kind of living energy.
"Actually, the reason is very simple."
"Let's put it this way."
Lu Chen put down his hand, looked at Ash and they explained simply.
"You can think of Lucario that day as a special evolutionary form."
"It's just that this evolved form cannot be maintained for a long time."
"It can be said that it is a form that exists specifically for fighting."
Ash Their ears pricked up.
"And this Mega Stone is used to assist the elves in completing this special evolution."
"Hiss--"
