Fang Yuan and Eevee came to the Greenwood Research Institute for the second time.
Invited by Professor Xu Qingmu, they came to assist him in completing a new project on the Anticipation Ability.
Fang Yuan also came with a head full of doubts.
After all, he couldn't think of anything else to research about the Anticipation Ability.
Could it be that it can sense natural disasters like the Disaster Pokémon Absol? That would be amazing.
However, Absol is able to sense natural disasters because the horn on its head can sensitively detect changes in the sky and the earth, which is different from the Anticipation Ability...
"Speaking of which, superstition is also prevalent on Earth, and there is a lot of resistance to Absol, a 'Pokémon that brings disaster'..."
"What would you like to drink?"
After entering the research institute, Professor Xu Qingmu first poured a glass of Water for Fang Yuan, and then handed a glass of red drink to Eevee.
"This is also a Nutrient Drink formulated for Normal-type Pokémon, you can't buy it outside."
Professor Xu Qingmu said with a smile. Yesterday it was a green drink like Vegetable Juice, today it is a red drink like watermelon juice. Eevee reluctantly accepted it and tasted it.
Um... still no taste.
"Professor Xu Qingmu, what is the important project you mentioned? How do you want us to cooperate?" Fang Yuan asked.
"Don't worry, before that, let me tell you a story."
Fang Yuan was stunned for a moment, then nodded.
"Once upon a time, there was a Trainer who loved Bug-type Pokémon very much when he was a child. This love supported him to become a Professional Trainer with the identity of a Bug-type Pokémon Trainer."
"However, during a Secret Realm exploration, in order to protect this Trainer, his Butterfree was seriously injured. This Butterfree, which was carefully cultivated by the Trainer and proficient in Psychic Power, died because of its fragile life. This kind of injury, which is not fatal to other Pokémon, easily took away its vitality."
Fang Yuan and Eevee's expressions changed slightly. This is indeed a defect of some Bug-type Pokémon.
"From then on, this Trainer made up his mind that he wanted to change this situation. He retreated to the second line and became a researcher, and began to study the Pokémon's genes, hoping to use this as a starting point to change the reality of the Bug-type Pokémon's fragile life."
"However, the difficulty of this matter exceeded his imagination. He began to despair, until another Secret Realm exploration, where he obtained a Fossil that was still active and carried a large number of Pokémon genes, and he saw hope again."
"He knew very well what this Fossil represented. This Fossil, which contained a large number of Pokémon genes and still had active vitality even after a long time, was likely to be the key to improving the life level of Pokémon. Developing a Panacea that could enhance the power of all Pokémon, including Bug-type Pokémon, became his dream."
"Did he succeed?" Fang Yuan asked.
"No." Professor Xu Qingmu shook his head.
"He suffered many setbacks during the research process, and the research results he obtained were not the Panacea he imagined."
"He researched an immature drug called R. R is a substance that can change genes and drive Pokémon crazy. After a certain amount of R is absorbed by Pokémon, this drug will not only change the Pokémon's genes, but also generate a new gene in the Pokémon's Body."
"Pokémon with this gene can theoretically obtain power beyond the past, but this gene is not something that any Pokémon can control. Most Pokémon will have red eyes and be extremely aggressive after generating this gene. They do not obey the Trainer's instructions and cannot be treated until they are exhausted to death. It is a symptom that is a hundred times more terrible than the 'Alien Syndrome' of Pokémon in the Secret Realm."
"And then?"
"He needs more suitable experimental subjects. After research, he found that Ditto, which can reorganize cells throughout its Body, and Eevee, which has unstable genes, have the strongest adaptability to this new gene. In the following experiments, Ditto, which has no evolution ability, that is, cannot improve its life level, was eliminated by him in the first time, and Eevee became the only choice."
"However, at this point, his research and experiments have not been recognized by the public. He was arrested. On the eve of his arrest, he noticed and absconded, because if he was caught, the best result would be imprisonment, and he would not be able to continue his research. Do you think he would give up?"
"No way..."
"Yes, of course he wouldn't. Without the research institute and experimental subjects, he could only take some of his Pokémon and cross provinces or even go abroad to restart his research. But at this time, he remembered a paper about the discovery of the Anticipation Ability. The researcher responsible for verifying this paper, his research institute should have a large number of Eevee that could be used as experimental subjects, right? Moreover, he had not yet come into contact with Eevee with the Anticipation Ability."
Fang Yuan and Eevee's hearts thumped, a bad premonition arising.
Professor Xu Qingmu continued: "But unfortunately, after his research, the five Eevee in this research institute still did not meet the requirements. Eevee cells are still extremely resistant to R. At this moment, a Rookie Trainer visited the research institute. Coincidentally, this Rookie Trainer's Pokémon was also an Eevee. Considering that having one more experimental subject was better than none, he gave this Eevee some R medicine and tested the fur it shed. To his surprise, the genes of this Eevee showed very little resistance to R. Although he didn't know the reason, it indicated that this Eevee was very likely to become the best experimental subject. He could use this Eevee to start a new round of research and improve the R medicine..."
"R is a substance with almost no taste. R in liquid form is divided into two types, red and green. The green one is slightly weaker, with an incubation period of several days, while the red one is stronger. When they are mixed, the reaction will be even more intense. There are less than three minutes left before it takes effect." Professor Xu Qingmu looked at his watch and smiled at Fang Yuan.
This smile sent chills down Fang Yuan and Eevee's spines.
Fang Yuan felt that Professor Xu Qingmu was telling him a suspense story, but his uncontrollable body told Fang Yuan that they seemed to be in big trouble.
He and Eevee were instantly pinned to the sofa by a force!
"Professor Xu?"
"Professor Xu? Are you talking about that researcher? He died a few days ago. You can call me Doctor Chen."
"Xu Qingmu" shook his head with a smile, and said, "Okay, after confirming that your Eevee can become the best experimental subject, I should leave here too."
At the same time, a Pokémon that looked like a gray fox walking on two feet appeared beside him. The dark red mane on the head of this Pokémon covered its back, and its red claws and toes made Fang Yuan recognize its identity.
The Illusion Fox Pokémon, Zoroark, whose illusion ability is extremely terrifying.
Fang Yuan fell into deep despair, hoping that Professor Xu Qingmu was joking with him...
Just then... the doorbell rang.
