It had been a long time since Luther had been interviewed on such a grand occasion. The last time he had this experience of countless spotlights flashing and guns and cannons focused on him was at the Lily of the Valley Conference.
Although there was an officially arranged interview area, reporters still crowded outside the player tunnel after the game, scrambling to ask Luther questions.
Not for anything else, but because Luther's low profile in the past left such a deep impression on them.
A trainer with such a powerful ability has been sitting on the island motionless before the start of the Galar Championship.
The outside world is always used to guessing what it is like on the island. Only Luther's die-hard fans have been arguing for Luther, believing that Luther has not become lazy and his strength is not as good as before because of living on the island these years.
Seeing the reporters' eyes flashing like wild beasts seeing their prey, Luther was also startled.
"I will cooperate with you in the interview and will not run away directly."
One sentence gave reporters and media peace of mind.
No matter where the interview area provided by the Galar Alliance was, the reporters started interviewing Luther directly at the scene.
The shrewd United Press reporter took advantage of the crowd surge to get to the front row and was the first to ask Luther a question.
"First of all, congratulations to player Luther for winning this match. Can you please comment on this match and player Chibana's performance?"
It’s a difficult question right from the start.
All reporters are staring at Luther, and their cameras will transmit Luther's answer to everyone watching the live broadcast.
Luther seemed very calm. After thinking for a while, he replied: "The game is very exciting. My friends and the elves should all like it."
"As for Chibana...he is also playing very well. If he takes out the Weather Team, I may feel a headache."
"Are you saying he made a mistake by not bringing out the Weather Team?"
Luther has long experienced the cunningness of these reporters. If you don't answer well, the headline of a report the next day may be "Luther said there was a serious mistake in Chibana's tactical choice."
"If you say something I haven't said, if there is a deviation in the report...it means you are also responsible, right?"
Luther, who was always easy to talk to, had an extremely stern tone that seemed threatening.
Luther does not intend to get used to the unscrupulous media. With his current ability, when he expresses dissatisfaction with a certain media report, a group of people will immediately look for the source of the news.
As long as the facts are found to be inconsistent, this media is waiting to be criticized by its peers in person.
The U.S. reporter, who was stared at by Luther in horror, stepped aside angrily.
"You have broken the history of Dynamaxing skills being unable to be defended by non-Gigantamaxed spirits before. What is your view on Dynamaxing?"
This question lifted the spirits of all media outlets.
Dynamaxing, this battle method introduced by Roz, the current chairman of the Galar Alliance, has brought countless honors and attractions to Galar, and is regarded as the main line of Galar's future development.
Luther's performance in the first half of today's battle could only be described as average, but in the second half, when the three giants Gardevoir, Mariluli, and Darkrai came on the scene, Chibana was quickly defeated.
Dynamax, which Qibana regarded as a comeback weapon, completely lost its effect under Darkrai's super defense and terrifying hypnotic ability.
Before the game was over, experienced reporters had a hunch that there would be a lot of thinking and debate about Dynamax in Galar for some time to come.
If possible, Luther really wants to repeat what Masted said in front of the camera, so that these people can understand the true views of Masted, the most famous trainer in the Galar region, on Dynamaxing.
However, the effect of this game is enough, and he does not intend to add more fuel.
Thinking about dynamism needs to be done bit by bit and cannot be completely denied directly.
Although Dynamax is a foreign object, as a form of combat expression it is undoubtedly excellent and can bring a lot of benefits to Galar.
"It's very visually impactful, and the experience of fighting the Dynamax Elves is very fresh. Darkrai likes it very much."
Luther was not being polite this time, because Darkrai showed an unusually high state of excitement after the game. This was a rare sight for a guy who usually pretended to be cold and arrogant.
The reason Darkrai was excited was because the battle with the Dynamax Aluminum Steel Dragon allowed him to practice the trick that Luther often described to him.
Luther said that this move can even seal God!
Today's first actual practice was surprisingly effective, and Darkrai was naturally in a good mood.
However... I am not being polite, but the media discovered that since Luther started answering questions, every answer actually avoided the part that everyone wanted to know most.
This way of practicing Tai Chi has greatly disappointed the media who want to dig deep for some hard facts.
"Why is it as slippery as King Catfish!"
The media secretly complained.
The Sinnoh reporter saw that Luther did not want to discuss today's game and quickly asked: "Can you tell us how many champions there are on the island?"
It was like dropping a huge boulder on a calm lake. After this issue was raised, no one bothered about Chibana and today's game anymore.
At the beginning, the outside world only knew that Sirona existed on Qidao.
As time goes by, various signs indicate that there is not only Sirona, the champion, but also the local king of Sinnoh on the island.
Which other champions are on the island? Have they settled down? What is the daily life of the champions like on the island?
This question asked by the Sinnoh reporter can be derived from too many questions.
The outside world lacks a basic understanding of Qidao, and its mystery prompts countless people to desire to uncover the mysterious veil covering Qidao.
Sinnoh reporters were not sure whether Luther was willing to answer this question head-on. After all, Luther's previous response to questions was very cunning.
"I can only tell you that besides Sirona, there are indeed champions from other regions on the island."
When you think it is impossible to get a positive answer, you suddenly get a positive answer. What kind of experience is it?
The focus of everyone's astonishment soon shifted from Luther's cheerfulness to the question of "which champions are they?"
But at this time Luther smiled and stopped answering.
Luther had thought about it before. As Qidao became more and more famous and his influence increased, it was difficult to hide the fact that there was a champion on Qidao Island, let alone the Sinnoh Alliance.
Already have some information.
Since it is very likely that someone will expose it, it is better to lay the groundwork yourself first.
"I would like to ask if Qidao will still allow access to the island in the future. After you left Qidao, many local trainers in Sinnoh regarded the challenge of Qidao's defense as a kind of experience. Do you have any comments on this?"
Luther smiled and said something that made everyone on the island laugh.
"Although I am also the owner of the island, you have to ask Mai about this. She has more control over the affairs of the island."
"You are a reporter from Sinnoh. You should know that I am just a mascot. Mascots don't dare to overstep their bounds."
For a long time, because only Mai appeared in the external activities of Qidao, many people in Sinnoh joked that Luther was just the mascot of Qidao and that the real owner of the island was Mai.
The locals in Sinnoh laughed loudly when they heard this sentence, while other people who didn't understand the joke couldn't help laughing after being educated about it.
After a brief period of excitement, Luther became slippery again and never revealed any information again.
The local media in Galar suddenly crowded into the front row, stretched out the microphone to Luther, and asked: "Excuse me, player Luther, there are rumors that it was because of your active lobbying that Lu Lina, Caidou, and Mali
That’s why I chose to leave Galar and follow you to the island.”
"With what happened after you came to Galar and today's match against Chibana, are you dissatisfied with Galar?"
Luther looked at the female reporter from the Galar region who came forward to ask questions, and her face with a warm smile gradually turned cold.
He found that the female reporter's eyes were full of hostility when she looked at him, strong xenophobic emotions escaped from her body, and even the ending of her question was inexplicably cold.
It was like a happy banquet, everyone was eating and drinking happily, when suddenly someone kicked the door open and overturned the dining table.
After Luther warned the United Press reporters not to mess with the rhythm, subsequent reporters maintained excellent professionalism and tried their best not to ask questions that Luther did not respond to directly.
Even people in other regions can see that Chibana's defeat cannot be entirely attributed to Chibana. The extreme national enthusiasm needs to be cooled down. Are Galar reporters stupider than others?
No, it's just bad.
He brought up what Luther did in Galar, trying to arouse the people's disgust towards Luther, and also wanted to use Luther's poaching to lead the fans of these trainers to start a crusade against Luther.
In the end, it was almost certain that Luther was an uninvited guest who came specifically to cause havoc.
Is it the reporter's personal behavior, or is it someone pushing me from behind?
It doesn't matter, Luther, who is about to leave Galar, has no worries.
No matter how long Galar's hand is, he can't reach the island.
Luther grabbed the microphone handed over by the reporter and said calmly: "I would like to ask everyone here, if a company with complete benefits, first-class working atmosphere, and generous remuneration offers a remuneration five times higher than your current salary, please
Are you willing to go work for him?"
The other reporters almost shouted in unison: "Yes."
Luther smiled and turned his head and looked at the female reporter from the Galar region: "When people go to higher places, water flows to lower places. In a better environment and treatment, it is human nature to think about changes."
"Lulina, Caidou, and Mali left because my island gave them a perfect promise. They were moved and left Galar in order to pursue their dream as a trainer."
"Is this why you keep lobbying for outstanding trainers in the Galar region?"
Luther chuckled.
"I heard that the Galar region has absorbed quite a few trainers from Alola."
