29: Section 29

It’s just that I wonder what they’ll feel when they find out how “simple” the Ancient Poké Ball manufacturing method is.

“Woof!”

“Woof woof!”

Originally, this should have been a normal night, just like any other.

But not long after Zhang Yu fell asleep, he was woken up by a series of barks.

“What’s going on?”

After Zhang Yu woke up groggily, he heard a very noisy sound coming from outside the tent.

To figure out what was happening outside, Zhang Yu immediately unzipped the tent and looked out. He then saw a flash of lightning streak across the sky, followed by a huge rumble.

“Is that Thunder?”

“No… it’s a thunderstorm!”

Zhang Yu, who was still a bit hazy, immediately sobered up after that.

When he picked up his phone, he found that the Elf Research Group had sent him a weather warning not long ago.

It was a pity that he didn’t see it immediately because he had already fallen asleep at the time.

“This is really unlucky.”

Since it was the first time he had encountered such a situation, Zhang Yu didn’t know what to do for a while, so he simply started a live stream.

If he really encountered any trouble, more people would eventually be able to come up with solutions.

Most importantly, once he started the live stream, the officials would also notice the situation here.

“Alas, Anchor went offline so early today, making me so bored.”

“Yeah, he was still going to be online for a while yesterday, why did he go offline so early today?”

“There’s nothing we can do about it. After all, Anchor has been streaming all day today, so it’s normal for him to be tired.”

“Indeed, besides a short break at noon, Anchor hasn’t rested all day today. It’s only because Anchor is in good health; if it were anyone else, they would have given up long ago.”

“That’s true.”

“By the way, I just saw the weather forecast saying there’s heavy rain in some parts of Rong City. Do you think Anchor’s location will be affected?”

“It shouldn’t be that unlucky, right?”

“It’s hard to say. Anchor’s current location seems to be within the weather forecast’s range.”

“Holy cow, Anchor’s back from the dead?!”

“Why did he suddenly start a live stream in the middle of the night?”

The Water Friends in the live stream room were all complaining that Zhang Yu had gone offline too early today.

Although some people had mentioned the weather issue, most of them didn’t take it seriously.

And as Zhang Yu restarted the live stream, everyone’s attention was drawn to it.

“Ahem, are you all surprised? Anchor is back!”

“Perhaps some Water Friends already know that Anchor here encountered some weather problems, which is why I got up in the middle of the night and restarted the live stream.”

“However, the weather here isn’t heavy rain, but a thunderstorm.”

“Look, it’s still Thundering outside right now.”

After greeting the Water Friends, Zhang Yu began to explain why he was streaming now and his current situation.

As if to cooperate with Zhang Yu, when he aimed the camera outside the tent, another flash of lightning streaked across the sky.

This not only allowed the Water Friends in the live stream room to see the pouring rain outside, but also made them notice that due to the heavy rain, the original small stream had begun to become rapid.

And the original small stream had now turned into a small river.

If the water level continued to rise, even the place where Zhang Yu had set up his tent might be submerged.

“He actually encountered a thunderstorm? Anchor’s luck is a bit too bad, isn’t it?”

“Hiss~ Did that big brother just now really hit the nail on the head?”

“There’s still a difference, after all, the specific problems encountered are not the same.”

“But this should be a weather forecast problem, right?”

“No, is this the time to be talking about that? Shouldn’t our attention be on the danger Anchor might encounter?”

“Indeed, in such harsh weather, it’s very easy to encounter danger in the wild.”

“Not to mention anything else, the constantly rising water level alone is a problem.”

“One can only say that Anchor didn’t choose a good location when setting up the tent.”

“What’s the point of being a Monday morning quarterback here? And Anchor had to set up the tent there because it was getting late, okay?”

“That’s right, and Anchor’s biggest crisis right now isn’t actually from the river, but from the big mountain not far away. If there’s a landslide or a mudslide, that’s the real danger. Compared to that, the rising water level is completely trivial.”

“Although I really want to help, across a screen, there doesn’t seem to be much help we can offer.”

After hearing Zhang Yu’s words and seeing his current situation, the Water Friends in the live stream room immediately frowned.

Obviously, they also understood how dangerous Zhang Yu’s current situation was.

However, since they were separated by a screen, even if they wanted to help, it seemed they couldn’t do much.

“Woof woof~”

Just as Zhang Yu saw these bullet comments and was about to say something, the barking sound that had previously rung out sounded again.

And he didn’t know if it was his imagination, but he always felt that the sound was very close to him?

No, it seemed that the sound was really close to him!

Just as he was thinking this, a fluffy, wet little head suddenly poked in from outside the tent.

Through the light inside the tent, one could vaguely see that it was a dog’s head with two fur colors: cream and orange.

Chapter 46: Emergency Evacuation (Begging for flowers, monthly tickets, and evaluation tickets)

“Holy cow! What the heck is this?!”

“A dog’s head suddenly appeared in the live stream room, it scared me!”

“Is this a normal dog, or a Pokémon?”

“It should be a Pokémon, anyway, I don’t recognize what breed of dog it is.”

“Do you think Anchor might be in danger?”

“It shouldn’t be that bad, right? Didn’t Anchor encounter quite a few Pokémon today? He didn’t encounter any danger.”

“That was during the day, but in this kind of ghostly weather, some Pokémon might become irritable, right? And most importantly… Charmeleon is still sleeping right now, so he can’t protect Anchor!”

The Water Friends in the live stream room were startled when they saw this scene.

And what made them very worried was whether this Pokémon would suddenly attack Zhang Yu?

“Don’t worry, this little guy won’t hurt me.”

Unlike the Water Friends in the live stream room, Zhang Yu appeared extremely calm at this moment. The reason was simple: he had recognized the identity of this canine Pokémon in front of him. It was none other than the famous Growlithe, one of the Pokémon most affectionate towards humans.

“It’s called Growlithe, a very gentle Pokémon. The reason it appeared here is probably because it saw the water level rising, so it was searching along the way for any targets that needed rescue.”

“According to this trend of rising water levels, it probably won’t be long before this place is submerged.”

As for why Growlithe appeared here, Wang Xiao only glanced at the situation outside and quickly had a rough guess.

“Woof woof~”

Upon hearing Zhang Yu’s words, Growlithe immediately barked and nodded affirmingly.

Then, as if seeing that Zhang Yu hadn’t moved, it immediately stretched its head over, opened its mouth, and bit Zhang Yu’s clothes, pulling him outward.

“Growlithe, wait a minute! I still have a lazy bum who hasn’t woken up yet.”

Feeling Growlithe’s tug, Zhang Yu quickly stopped its actions. He then walked to the still soundly sleeping Charmeleon and shook him vigorously.

If it weren’t for that Water Friends’s reminder earlier, he really wouldn’t have noticed that Charmeleon was still sleeping.

“So this Pokémon is called Growlithe? So it really is a Pokémon.”

“Isn’t that obvious? With how smart it is, it would be strange if it wasn’t a Pokémon.”

“More than that, what I’m more concerned about is, do Pokémon actually help humans voluntarily?”

“Although it sounds quite incredible, judging from Growlithe’s reaction, that is indeed the case.”

“I think this is actually very normal. After all, most Pokémon are still very gentle and kind. It’s one thing if they don’t see it, but if they see someone in danger, I’m afraid many Pokémon would be willing to lend a Helping Hand, right?”

“If you think about it carefully, that is indeed the case.”

“Although I really want to refute your point of view, judging from Growlithe’s performance, it seems to be true.”

“I suddenly feel a little envious of Charmeleon’s sleep quality. It’s raining and Thundering outside, how can he still sleep?”

“Alas, if only I had such sleep quality. Forget about it raining and Thundering, even if it just drizzles a little, I might be startled awake in the middle of the night.”
