He Gui and Mo Gan were dumbfounded when they saw Luther carrying people back with elves.
Judging from this posture, he must have caught a poacher, but this is too much. How did he appear deep in the forest?
"What's going on? These people are all poachers. Where did you catch them?"
"You are waiting for me here, what happened again?"
He Gui and Luther spoke almost at the same time.
Luther waved his hand and signaled that he should speak first: "To answer your question, they are considered poachers. These people are lava masses tracked by the Hoenn Alliance. They previously tried to use the power of the super ancient elf Groudon to realize their ambitions, causing
It caused a lot of damage and panic.”
"It is estimated that they exploited a loophole in the northern part of the Autumn Leaf Forest facing the sea. The forest area is too vast, so there are inevitably areas that cannot be taken into account."
Luther didn't mean to speak for the rangers near that area, but that was the fact.
My own forest area is not big, and it is so troublesome to patrol around it. It is hard to imagine how the forest rangers in other larger forest areas can take good care of it.
Moreover, the forest rangers themselves need to constantly move around in the forest, and they can easily be caught by others.
The lava ball was still sleeping soundly, completely unaware that he was being watched with curious eyes.
"Why did you come to my camp to wait for me?"
After Luther asked, he turned and looked not far away, where A Cheng was smiling and talking to Mu He.
Mu He chatted with A Cheng calmly, but obviously did not respond to A Cheng's enthusiasm, just out of politeness.
"Students from Rainbow University, Purple Coryda College and Raven University all reported that their graduation thesis was missing."
Luther was watching the show with great interest, but when he heard Mo Gan say this, he couldn't react at all.
Graduation thesis missing? Students from three schools were stolen together?
Mo Gan urged Luther and Cheng to quickly return to the ranger cabin at the entrance of the Autumn Leaf Forest. Trainers from all regions had already gathered there. If they couldn't wait for Luther, they were planning to leave just now.
Luther took out some food and gave it to Nidoking and Nidoqueen, and touched Nidoran and Nidoran by the way. After saying goodbye hastily to them, he asked Hegui and Mogan's elves to take over the lava in their hands.
Team members.
On the way, Luther finally figured out what happened.
The so-called graduated beings refer to some wild elves active in the forest area.
Every year in spring and autumn, they come to Autumn Leaf Forest to observe elves. The elf research team that collects information always introduces the old to the new.
Trainee researchers like these who take elves as their research direction and decide on a thesis topic often use certain elves or elves-related content to complete their graduation thesis.
Someone will observe the activity of flying elves in the forest.
Someone will observe the ecological changes in the areas where various elves are active in the Autumn Leaf Forest.
Some people are keen to select a kind of elf, then observe its growth process, decide on the topic of their own paper, track it for a long time, and obtain data.
It is under such circumstances that these people often establish deep friendships with the objects of their observation.
The day before yesterday was the time for researchers from major universities to go deep into the forest again to obtain data. However, this time, they were surprised to find that the objects they had observed before, and even the elves near the objects of observation, were missing.
If only one or two, or one or two small groups are missing, they can still understand that after all, there is an upper limit to the carrying capacity of the regional ecology, and elves that cannot compete will choose to find new habitats. This is a common thing.
.
However, people from several universities communicated with each other. After a conversation, everyone was surprised to find that not only their own papers may need to be written from a different angle, but other people's papers also "flyed".
You must know that the academic alliance is behind the unique protective forest area of the Autumn Leaf Forest. Therefore, after the news was reported, both the Hoenn Alliance and the Academic Alliance took action immediately.
Because the combat effectiveness of local rangers is generally not very high, trainers sent from various regions to gain training and complete the commissions become the best candidates.
"What do they want from us?" Luther asked.
"Cooperate with the researchers in groups to investigate clearly whether these elves left the Autumn Leaf Forest because of the environment or were taken away by poachers. If it is the latter, things will probably become very troublesome." Mo Gan replied.
I knew it would be troublesome. I had just captured a group of members of the Lava Team, and many elves disappeared on the other side. The two things might be related.
And more importantly, this incident exposed the problem of varying levels of forest rangers’ abilities and intentions.
As a ranger who is ready to fight, the Hoenn Alliance even defaulted to "not very good at fighting", which really made Luther a little dizzy.
A meeting had already begun in the ranger cabin. When Luther entered the room with members of the Lava Team, everyone was flipping through something.
Except for a few leaders, the local rangers were waiting for news outside the door. When they saw Luther and his party, as well as the people who had been kidnapped, they looked at them in surprise.
About twenty or so trainers dispatched from various regions were sitting at the long table in the wooden house, holding the information in their hands and familiarizing themselves with something.
In addition to the forest area management affiliated to the Fengyuan Alliance that he saw on the day of the conflict with A Cheng, an old woman with gray hair, wearing a silver-white suit and reading glasses was also sitting in the front seat.
"The old fruit farmers from the Sinnoh region have also arrived. That's it. Well...who is the person you kidnapped?"
The forest manager's words made everyone in the room look at him. They all stood up and leaned towards the door.
Luther threw the eight members of Team Lava who were still sleeping soundly on the ground and briefly described what happened.
"Is it these idiots who ruined my graduation thesis?"
"Damn, the Chinese Valentine's Day bluebird I've been observing for two years has disappeared. It's definitely their fault."
"The sunflower monster I fed is gone too."
"And my friend Ladybug Ann."
"Let go, let go, don't stop me, let me vent my anger first. Do you know how difficult it is to graduate from our Rainbow University, how difficult it is to write the thesis, how strict the plagiarism check is, and how painful it is to have to wait an extra year to graduate.
You don’t understand at all!”
The scene was very chaotic. The forest rangers did not expect to see poachers. These guys with a background of research background were even more excited than themselves and had greater strength. If they had not practiced climbing mountains and wading in rivers on weekdays, they might not have been able to stop them.
Luther can understand this feeling...
I once saw in the news that students from the Agricultural College, who graduated from the Department of Agriculture, were all picked on cultivated crops when they were about to mature...
Fortunately, there are no agricultural dogs here to cultivate fruit seedlings and crops, otherwise they would have been looking for the knife.
