Several children are in their early teens, or twelve or three years old.
Except for a child wearing a black T-shirt, everyone is basically wearing a white vest and shorts, dressed as an insect catching boy holding a netted insect cage.
Two of the children had a red and white elf ball hanging on their waists, and next to a few of them was a brown insect-type elf with silver sharp horns on its head.
It is the unicorn beetle, the original form of the popular elf giant needle bee.
In his memory, Mark has almost no interaction with the children in the village.
The same is true at this time.
Several insect-catching teenagers in the village ran over because they saw him from a distance, probably because they thought he was a friend in the village.
However, after discovering that it was him who was a fool who wandered around the village all day long, he ignored it. He chattered something and continued walking in the direction of the village. It didn't take long for him to go far away.
Mark and the green caterpillar stood there for a while and then followed in the direction where the insect-catching boys left.
From the words of several insect-catching teenagers, Mark heard some very unfamiliar words.
While walking, Mark looked at the green caterpillar and asked: "What's going on in the Gym League in Fallen Leaf Province? Isn't this Kanto?"
"Hiss?"
The green caterpillar tilted its head and looked at Mark, showing the same puzzled expression.
Mark said to himself: "Whether it's a green caterpillar, a Rattata, a domestic bird, a unicorn, etc., they are all common elves in the Kanto area.
Since they are both called the Fallen Leaf Province, they must be very large. If they were in the same world, it would be impossible not to know about Kanto.
If you put it this way, is this an imaginary elf world?
In fact, it doesn’t make any difference whether it’s an imaginary elf world or not. After all, I can’t remember much about the Pokémon plots I watched when I was a child.
The key is, what is this gym league?
Is the gym league a league formed by gyms in various places like those basketball and football clubs?"
Mark continued to look at the green caterpillar.
"Hiss."
Facing Mark's inquiry, the green caterpillar spread its four forelimbs, shook its head, and made a gesture that it didn't know.
The green caterpillar really doesn’t know that it has almost no contact with other humans except Mark, and Mark has been a fool over the years, so it doesn’t know much about the human world.
One person and one insect followed a few insect-catching teenagers from a distance, walking towards the village.
Not long after, Mark and the Green Caterpillar heard even noisier sounds. As they approached the village, Mark and the Green Caterpillar saw dense crowds of people.
"Hiss, hiss!"
The green caterpillar seemed to remember something and started gesticulating with its legs at Mark.
Mark wondered: "It's a square thing with pictures inside, you mean a TV set?"
"Hiss!"
The green caterpillar nodded repeatedly.
It has heard people talking about the word TV, and watched it from a distance several times when walking around the village with Mark.
However, TV is so popular that people are crowding around it. I can’t see clearly what the TV is.
Following the description of the green caterpillar, Mark also found some vague memories in his mind.
If he were to describe it, it would be similar to the world he traveled to in the 1970s and 1980s. At that time, televisions were a rare thing. One family owned a television, and the neighbors would gather together to watch it.<
/p>
The TV set in the village is about 25 inches long, with a color screen. There is a long pole erected next to the TV set with the TV antenna on it.
At this time, the TV was placed on the constructed stage so that more people could see it.
Mark pushed forward with the green caterpillar.
Maybe because he was a fool, the villagers didn't say anything when they noticed that he was squeezing towards him. Some villagers even took the initiative to give up a little bit of their position.
It didn't take long for him to squeeze into a good position. Although the angle was a bit tilted, he could clearly see the TV screen and hear the voice of the commentary on the TV.
On the TV, the battle between Charizard and Longlong Rock is playing.
According to the commentary, the Rock Gym in Sanshan Town and the Fire Gym in Barre Town are at war.
The fire-breathing dragon on the TV screen kept spraying flames, which looked very powerful, but according to the commentator, it seemed that Longlong Rock had the upper hand.
The villagers gathered around the TV to cheer for Longlongyan, sometimes shouting with joy, sometimes shaking their heads in regret for missing the opportunity.
Mark listened to the villagers' discussions and cheers, and quickly learned something about the situation.
The reason why the villagers cheer for Longlongyan is not because the villagers like Longlongyan or the trainers who use Longlongyan, but because the Qingxi Village where he is now is an affiliated village within Sanshan Town.
The villagers are supporting their hometown gym.
As he continued to listen to the villagers' conversations, Mark gradually understood what the Gym League was.
As he had guessed before, the gym league is similar to football and basketball leagues.
Usually each gym will send seven players to compete in up to five games.
The order of the competition is single player, double player, single player, double player, single player.
There is no clear rule for best-of-five games, but generally the gym leaders will appear in the final single-player decisive match, which is also called the gym owner showdown.
The battle played on the TV at this time was the third match between the two gyms.
The current score is 2 to 0, and Sanshan Town Gym is in the lead. If nothing unexpected happens, this game should end with a crushing victory for Sanshan Town Gym.
Not far away from Mark, several insect-catching teenagers from before also crowded near the TV and started quarreling. They seemed to be complaining about one of their companions for wasting time. As a result, they just came back and the game was about to end, so they missed the exciting scenes of the first two games.
.
Mark suddenly discovered something and looked at the green caterpillar on his shoulder. At this time, the green caterpillar was looking at the picture on the TV with vigour.
Seeing the green caterpillar's thoughts, Mark scratched the green caterpillar's tentacles with his finger and said, "Do you also want to participate in the competition on the TV?"
This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading!
"Hiss!"
The green caterpillar was stunned for a moment, then nodded vigorously.
Mark said: "There will be a chance."
They have all come to the elf world. Even if he does not have a spiritual master system, he will still find a way to become a trainer, and becoming a trainer will inevitably involve battles and competitions.
Marx was not left alone for too long, and the battle scenes on the TV changed continuously.
The fire-breathing dragon found the right opportunity to make a sneak attack, flew the rumble rock into the sky, and slammed the rumble rock into the ground. He performed a wonderful [Earth Throw]. Smoke and dust filled the air, and a huge hole was made on the ground.
, the villagers of Qingxi cheering below the TV were completely silent.
But just when everyone was sighing, Longlong Rock, which seemed to be dying and unable to move, suddenly burst out. It rushed to the side of the fire-breathing dragon incredibly, and launched a huge [big explosion]. The limit was changed, and the fire-breathing dragon was pulled away.
Get under the horse.
The villagers couldn't stop cheering, completely covering up the sound of the TV.
In the final match between Sun Rock and Coal Turtle, Sanshan Town Gym also won the victory amidst the cheers of the people, and finally defeated Barre Town Gym 3-0.
Although there are reasons why the rock element restrains the fire element, being able to completely defeat the opponent also illustrates the strength of the Sanshan Town Gym in a certain aspect.
After the game was over, the villagers gathered around the TV slowly dispersed.
In impoverished mountainous areas where entertainment facilities are lacking, this kind of competitive event is very exciting. Both adults and children are talking about the game just now and looking forward to the next broadcast.
Not long after the show ended, an old man who looked very majestic picked up the loudspeaker and called people back.
This old man Mark has some memories of him often waving to him and the green caterpillars, and then giving them some food, but he didn't meet them often in the village.
The old man shouted that he had just received a notice that the alliance commissioner of the Fallen Leaf Province had temporarily changed his schedule and would be coming soon. He asked every household participating in the ability awakening test to prepare. If he missed it, there would be no second chance.<
/p>
There was a commotion in the crowd.
Mark didn't hear any information about the ability awakening test from the rioting crowd, and he didn't know anything about it when he asked the green caterpillar. Instead, he learned the identity of the old man from the villagers' conversations.
The old man is the village chief of Qingxi Village, his surname is Qian. The villagers didn’t say his specific name, and Mark doesn’t know either.
Village Chief Qian hurriedly directed several villagers to clean up the high platform where the TV was located. He said that the qualification test would be conducted here in a while, and asked the villagers participating in the test to bring their children over as soon as possible, and then left in a hurry.
About ten minutes later, there was a commotion among the villagers.
The village elder who was full of majesty before seemed to have changed. With a smile on his face, he brought a middle-aged alliance official in a white uniform to the stage, and at the same time ordered the villagers to participate in the ability awakening test for the children.
