The layout of the gymnasium in White Wind Town is aligned with the core gymnasium, lounges for challengers and gym personnel, viewing areas, and personal offices of gymnasium owners. According to the official website of the alliance, the funds for renovation are Yangbai Province.
It was obtained from frugal expenses and donations from the residents of Baifeng Town.
Yang Bai's side job is not very profitable. In addition to being a museum owner, he is a staff member of a welfare home and a teacher at the White Wind Town Elf School. He earns an ordinary salary from both jobs.
Baifeng Town Gym is located near the best business district in Baifeng Town. I don’t know if it’s because of the approaching New Year, but the path in front of the gym is deserted. Luther walked along the way without a single challenger.
see.
On the contrary, the streets are already crowded with people, and everyone is doing their shopping for the year before.
Luther walked all the way to the gym hall and saw a seventeen or eighteen-year-old girl with black hair mopping the floor.
The girl heard the footsteps and raised her head to look at Luther: "Are you here to challenge the owner?"
Luther nodded.
"Well, the White Wind Gym will not accept the challenge today. We are doing general cleaning."
The girl pointed to Luther apologetically at the announcement on the wall.
Sure enough, the notice on the wall said that because the New Year is approaching, the White Wind Gym will cease operations for two days for cleaning and maintenance.
Isn't it such a coincidence... This announcement was posted two days ago, which means that I can't challenge it until tomorrow.
A big tail barked at Luther unhappily, held up a rag, and leaned against the bucket at the girl's feet. After soaking the rag, he grabbed the rag and slid away, leaving a trace on the ground.
A wet mark.
Luther suddenly realized something and looked at his feet. Sure enough, he walked all the way and soiled the place they had just cleaned.
"Sorry...I have to ask you to clean again."
The girl waved her hand: "It's okay, it's okay. Just come back tomorrow."
Carefully stepping on areas that were not wet, Luther walked out of the White Wind Gym and sighed.
Originally, I spent two days in the hotel recuperating to adjust the condition of my elf to the best, and then I planned to conquer the White Wind Gym in one go, but now I have to postpone it again.
A yellow figure suddenly flashed past Luther's feet. Feeling dazzled, Luther stopped and turned to look behind him.
"This is..." Luther took out the illustrated book, "The earth dragon brother, the earth snake elf, can dig the ground with its tail and make a maze-like nest. It can fly a short distance with its wings."
Brother Tulong also turned his head. Although he didn't open his eyes at all...Luther could feel him staring at him.
He's so big, he's almost 1.7 meters, right? A wild one?
But the illustrated book says that the earth dragon brother usually only huddles in caves without light.
No wonder Xiaozhi had a soft spot for this guy and wanted to win over him several times. When they actually met, Luther found that the Tulong brother had a naive and particularly laid-back temperament.
Put together with Slowpoke and Panda, it's a perfect match. Adding another one can completely create an F4-level lineup.
Footsteps sounded behind Luther. Luther, who originally wanted to reach out and touch Tulong's younger brother, quickly turned around.
The boy, who was holding a large bag of fruit in his left hand and some ingredients in his right hand, looked at Luther with a smile. His silver bangs slipped out of the cotton hat he was wearing and hung on his eyebrows.
Behind them, Bagosaurus and Kentero were each carrying a lot of young goods, and they glanced back and forth at Luther curiously.
Perhaps because he was wearing a cotton hat and a light red scarf, it took Luther a while to realize that the person in front of him was Yang Bai.
Just when Luther was about to say something, Yang Bai turned around and put what he was holding in the basket on Kentero's back.
He took out a pamphlet and a pen from his pocket, wrote something quickly on it, and then turned the pamphlet to Luther.
"Challenger?"
Yang Bai's calligraphy is quite beautiful, and by looking at it, you can imagine the peaceful feeling he had when he spoke.
Only then did Luther remember that Yang Bai had aphasia again.
"Yes, I originally wanted to challenge the White Wind Gym today, but I didn't expect you guys to be cleaning. I'll come back tomorrow." Luther replied sheepishly.
Yang Bai smiled and continued to write in the notebook: "Are you in a hurry? If it is in a hurry, I will go and organize the battlefield."
"It's not that urgent."
"That's good. I thought you, like other challengers, were rushing to leave Baifeng Town and go home directly after completing the challenge before the end of the year."
Sure enough, no matter where you are, it is a custom to reunite with your family during the Chinese New Year, even in this world.
As long as they could make it home, they all started running back.
The current turbulent flow of people in Baifeng Town will gradually dissipate in the days approaching the New Year's Eve.
Yangbai then wrote: "Want to touch and see Brother Tulong?"
Luther rubbed his head sheepishly: "I thought it was wild, so I was a little curious."
"It's okay, then you can touch it. It seems that not many people like Brother Tulong. They always think that he is too timid and not suitable for taming. This one in my family is different. He is very clingy and very courageous."
The earth dragon brother who had been raised chubby by foreigners was indeed very clingy as he said. As soon as Luther's fingers touched his textured skin, the earth dragon brother took the initiative to put his head into Luther's hand.
He was really fat. Luther pinched Tulong's younger brother carefully and it felt fleshy. He didn't know what standards Yangbai was based on when he was raised.
The white pen was writing something again.
"I just discovered it now. Could it be that you are Luther?"
Huh? Why does Yangbai also know himself?
"Laotai said in the group before that he was tricked by a newcomer, so we should be careful."
Luther was sweating profusely. He suddenly remembered this. In his first gym battle in this world, he relied on the terrifying power of the dream monster to beat Hyota's rookie battle spirit.
I originally thought that being famous among the club owners was a joke, but actually even Yang Bai knew about it.
Wait a minute, Hyota must be one of the core gym owners. In the group they chat with... is there Yangbai?
"Originally, they all thought that I had firmly entered the ranks of core gym leaders, so they pulled me in in advance. In the end, I let them down."
Yang Bai showed a helpless smile, picked up the two bags of New Year's goods that Kentero was carrying, tried hard to lift the brochure, and showed Luther the lower line of text.
"Sorry, we can't talk anymore. Junna came from the orphanage to help me, and the members in the gym are cleaning. I can't be lazy anymore."
Yangbai bent down to signal, carried the New Year's goods, and walked in through the small door on the other side of the main entrance with Kentero and the Pouchosaurus.
Brother Tulong, Bagosaurus, and Kentero, these are the three elves that Luther saw on the website that are commonly used in Yangbai Gym battles.
