Chapter 116 Challenging the Napru Gymnasium
Xuan Jian nodded: "Thank you for your reminder, I have already decided to take a special challenge."
"Okay then," Xiao Dan nodded, and handed Xuan Jian a backpack, "Here are some climbing tools, which should be able to help you."
"Thank you!" Xuanjian took the bag gratefully. He had never experienced this kind of exercise before, and he only prepared some commonly used mountaineering equipment, which was completely incomparable with the other party's meticulously prepared tools.
"You have never climbed a mountain, so it is much safer if you follow me for a while." Xiao Dan said, mountain climbing is a relatively dangerous sport after all, and it would be bad if the challenger gets injured!
"Thank you!" Xuanjian thanked again sincerely. Although the other party said that he would not release water, he was actually releasing water in a disguised form. Otherwise, he would be easily defeated by a person like himself who has no climbing experience at all.
After a little preparation, the two started the challenge, and the multitrack took the cable car to the top of the mountain.
The altitude span of Naipuru's snow-capped mountains is very large, which has led to the division of temperature zones on the mountains.The area at the foot of the mountain has a gentle terrain, a warm and humid climate, and various vegetation grows lush and beautiful.In this area, Xuanjian can easily keep up with Xiaodan's pace, and can also spare some energy to observe the surrounding environment.
It is different when it comes to the mountainside area. It is relatively steep here, so there is very little soil layer, and the water can't be kept. Basically, there is no vegetation. Only occasionally there are one or two shrubs growing on the cliff, which makes this area even more desolate.Here, there are some Pokémon who are good at flying. They make their homes on the crevices of the cliffs and live freely.Under the leadership of Xiaodan, Xuanjian avoided the lairs of these elves, and climbed through the vacated area without disturbing them.
Even with Xiaodan leading the way, climbing the steep cliffs is full of danger and frightening. It is impossible to imagine how dangerous it is without someone leading the way.After all, it takes a lot of time to judge which foothold is safe, not to mention that you may accidentally enter the elf's lair along the way and be attacked by elves.Following Xiaodan, Xuanjian was not pulled down too much by virtue of his flexibility and endurance.After leaving the cliffs in the mountainside area, Xiao Dan said: "You are very athletic! Your movements are jerky, indicating that this is your first time climbing a mountain, but it is amazing that you can make up for your lack of experience with your own speed! You must know that most challengers are separated here."
Xuanjian smiled and said nothing. Although he has never climbed a mountain before, but he possesses the power of Changpan and has undergone a period of fighting training. It would be abnormal if he didn't perform well!
Leaving the cliffs on the mountainside, the two entered the snowfall area on the top of the mountain.The terrain here is gentler, but due to the high altitude, the temperature is very low. This area is dominated by vegetation and moss. The ground is full of permafrost, and snowflakes fall from time to time in the sky.Xuanjian has seen ice-type Pokémon appearing around many times, and even saw a large piece of ice moss stone!It's a pity that his Ibrahimovic does not intend to evolve into an ice elf, otherwise it can be realized immediately.
Seeing that Xuanjian did not appear unadapted to the high altitude, Xiao Dan felt relieved and began to speed up, Xuanjian did not admit defeat, the two chased after each other, and soon arrived at the destination.
"Very good," panting, Xiaodan said to Xuanjian. The two arrived almost one after the other, which meant that Xuanjian was not separated by a long time gap, and the hope of winning was greatly increased. "Then let's move on to the second item."
Next, Xiaodan brought Xuanjian, Duogui and Abu who had been waiting on the top of the mountain to a basin on the top of the mountain.As soon as he entered this basin, Xuanjian felt that the temperature here was much higher than the outside world, and the air was full of yellow sulfur smoke. If Xiaodan hadn't prepared masks for the two of them in advance, they might have been poisoned by sulfur when they left.
When he came to the center of the basin, Xiaodan introduced: "This is the former crater, but now the volcano is dormant. The heat emitted here will melt the surrounding ice and snow, and the snow water will flow into the bottom of the rock formation along the dug trenches, and will be heated by the magma into steam. What we need to do is to use these steam as raw materials to condense a large enough ice. Note that this level is related to the next game. Water skills, like Blizzard."
Xuan Jian nodded, compared to the normal challenge of freezing hot springs, this challenge is much more difficult, but he can't beat himself.
"Let me do a demonstration first, come out, Queen Nido." Xiao Dan took the lead in summoning his ace elf, Queen Nido.Although ice elves are better at condensing icicles, it is undoubtedly difficult for ice elves to adapt to such an environment. Although Nidoqueen is not an ice elf, it is undoubtedly more adaptable to the environment because of the property of adding poison to the ground.
Following Xiaodan's call, a strong Nidoqueen appeared in front of everyone, and the high temperature and poisonous gas environment could not affect it at all.Xiao Dan ordered: "Queen Nido, make a big icicle like before." Then he pressed the stopwatch.
Empress Nido nodded, opened her mouth, and a thick beam of freezing light was ejected from it.The target of the extreme freezing light is the fog in the air. Under the action of the extreme freezing light, the white mist quickly shrinks and condenses into small boulders. These small boulders gradually grow under the extreme freezing light, and finally condense into a huge icicle.After condensing into icicles, Nido immediately picked up the icicles and quickly ran to the ice and snow area outside the basin to prevent them from being melted by the high temperature in the basin.When Haoli put the icicle on the ground, Xiao Dan stopped the stopwatch and said, "Nine minutes and 58 seconds, which is better than last time!"
Seeing that Xiaodan had completed his project, Xuanjian didn't hesitate, and said, "It's my turn, come out, gem starfish!"
"Jewel Starfish, use the mirror attribute on Nido Queen first!" Xuanjian asked Jewel Starfish to copy the attributes of Nido Queen so that it can adapt to the environment here, and then ordered: "Jewel Starfish, use the freezing light on the fog in the sky to make it condense into icicles!"
Hearing Xuanma's order, the jewel starfish acted immediately, the jewel in the center gleamed for a while, and a white freezing light shot out from the jewel, quickly condensing the water vapor in the air, and finally gathered together to form a huge icicle.
"The speed of freezing is very good, but if it is not shipped out from here, it will be melted soon!" Xiao Dan reminded.Gem Starfish's special attack is obviously much higher than Nidoqueen's, and its level is similar to it, so the time to freeze icicles is only half of Nidoqueen's. However, how to move the icicles out is obviously a problem Jewel Starfish will face.
"Jewel starfish, first use the spinning top to break the icicles, and then use the power of thought to transport the icicles!" Xuanjian ordered.Although Gem Starfish can't learn mind power skills in theory, it is a super spirit after all. As long as similar super power skills are improved, it can also be used as mind power to transport objects.
I saw the gemstone starfish spin rapidly and hit the bottom of the icicle with force, and the icicle immediately broke from the bottom.Before the icicle fell to the ground, a force held it firmly, lifted it into the air, and transported it out of the basin.In the end, it took Jewel Starfish 21 minutes and 23 seconds to successfully transport the icicle, [-] seconds longer than Nido.
"Good job, gem starfish." Xuanjian praised, after all, it is too reluctant to let the gem starfish, a mollusk with no arms and legs, to transport things.
Seeing that the icicles were finished and transported to the right place, Xiao Dan announced: "Then the third step is to make an ice boat. You should have seen the model of the ice boat, and you know how to do it?"
Xuan Jian nodded, knowing that during today's competition, he took the elf to the beach to practice yesterday on purpose!
"Okay, then please choose the Pokémon you want to use. I am using Queen Nido, Haoli, and Flying Mantis."
"Well, I've also decided. I'm going to use Gem Starfish, Giant Pincer Mantis, and Fire Dinosaur."
Xiao Dan nodded, pressed the stopwatch, and said: "Start!" Then he took his elf and started to do it.
"Let's start too!" Gengen said, "Everyone, do as you practiced yesterday!"
The three elves nodded, and the Fire Dinosaur opened its mouth and spewed out a stream of flames, making a big hole in the middle of the icicle, and then stopped.Then the Giant Pincer Mantis waved its pincers to carve it, and soon polished the icicle into the shape of a boat.Then the gem starfish emitted a thin beam of freezing light, further strengthening the ice ship, and then the three elves polished it simultaneously.In no time, a sturdy ice boat was made!
"I'm done!" Xuan Jian said to Xiao Dan, and looked at Xiao Dan at the same time, and found that they were also carrying out the final modification and reinforcement work.
Soon Xiaodan also finished his work. He took out his stopwatch and looked at it, and said to Xuanjian: "I'm 2 minutes behind, and you are ahead! Well done!"
Xuan Jian smiled and said: "I just took a chance, you are also very good."
Xiao Dan didn't feel humble any more, instead he said: "We were tied in the first round of mountaineering, and I led by 23 seconds in the second round. In this round, you lead by 2 minutes. In general, you lead by 37 minute and 37 seconds. In the next skiing competition, you start first by [-] minute and [-] seconds. It's okay, right?"
Xuan Jian nodded, saying that there is no problem, the skiing is on specially groomed ski trails, there are signs along the way, no one needs to lead the way, and there is no problem at all.
Seeing Xuan Jian's affirmation, Xiao Dan said: "Then everyone, let's start preparing!"
So the two began to prepare.Xiaodan used naughty thunder eggs and small fist stones as weights to help steer the ice boat, and used the flying mantis to adjust the balance, which is the standard style of a professional ski team.On Xuanjian's side, since there are no spirits that can weigh heavily, the Giant Pincer Mantis, Ba Dahu and Gem Starfish were chosen.
"Your choice is really different! Use the giant pincer mantis to weigh down." Xiao Dan commented, he didn't know that due to the light metal properties, the weight of the giant pincer mantis is actually about the same as that of the flying mantis, and it doesn't have the ability to weigh down at all.
Xuanjian didn't explain Xiaodan's misunderstanding, and led the elves to push the ice boat to the starting point.Then climbed onto the ice boat, Xuanjian put the gem starfish at the front, and he was second, followed by Ba Dahu, and finally the giant pincer mantis.
Seeing that Xuanjian was ready, Xiaodan issued an order: "Get ready, three, two, one, start!"
As Xiaodan's voice fell, the pincers of the giant pincer mantis pushed the ground hard, and the ice boat rushed out like an arrow off the string, and quickly disappeared from everyone's sight.
"I always feel that something is wrong? It seems that his ice boat is a bit floating. Is it not heavy enough? Just don't make any problems!" Xiao Dan said.On the other hand, Duogui, who knew the truth, could only smile awkwardly. Mr. Xiaodan and Ms. Guo Mei of Xiagan Gymnasium are completely different styles!
On the ice boat, Xuanjian quickly experienced the pain of not being overwhelmed. His ice boat was very fast, but it was a little bit floating as Xiaodan said.Although the snow on the ground is mostly flat, there are ice blocks and inconspicuous bumps in some places. Whenever the ice ship rolls over these places, it will be bumpy for example.Fortunately, the passengers on the boat, Zhongba Dahu and Giant Pincer Mantis, are flying elves, and this small bump will not cause trouble to them at all, while Gem Starfish is not afraid of bumps at all. Even Xuanjian, who has the experience of riding a Gyarados, quickly adapted to it.But soon a huge test will come, and they will pass a sharp bend!
"Ba Dahu, use mind power to stabilize the ship. Gem starfish, use water cannon to slow down. Giant pincer mantis, assist in changing direction." Xuan Jian ordered, because there is no weight, the speed of the ice ship is very fast, and it is very unstable. If you don't slow down, you may rush out directly at the bend.
Ba Dahu nodded, not daring to be negligent, and immediately used his thoughts to stabilize the violently bumping ice ship, while the gem starfish also sprayed out water cannons, and slowed down with the help of recoil.The giant pincer mantis also uses pincers to assist the ice ship in disguise.With everyone's concerted efforts, the ice boat finally passed the first sharp bend in a thrilling way.
With this experience, the three elves became more proficient, and then successfully passed the difficult areas such as continuous sharp bends and Z-shaped curves, and finally reached the foot of the mountain safely, while Xiaodan arrived about 10 minutes after Xuanjian arrived.
"Very good!" Xiaodan stepped off the ice boat and said to Xuanjian who was resting on the side, "But your complexions don't seem to be very good, are you feeling unwell?" The complexion on your face is almost like motion sickness, while Ba Dahu and Giant Pincer Mantis are lying listlessly on the grass on one side, and the gem starfish is also listlessly floating in the water. They don't seem to be in a good condition.
"We're fine." Xuanjian waved his hand, signaling that the other party should not worry about him. Although with the cooperation of everyone, the ice boat arrived at the destination smoothly, but Xuanma was not bumped to death. The elves were also exhausted from continuous use of skills and tense spirits, and they did not experience the fun of skiing at all!
"It's fine, congratulations, you have passed the special challenge of Naipru Gymnasium. This is the proof of your victory - the White Wave Badge." Xiao Dan handed a white shell-shaped badge together with two skill learning machines to Xuanjian.
Xuan Jian quickly took it with both hands: "Thank you, without your care, I would not be able to win!"
Xiaodan waved his hand and said, "You're welcome, this is what I should do. After all, not every trainer has done these exercises! You should experience the fun of these exercises. Would you like to do them again?"
Xuanjian said: "Uh, I'm tired today, let's do it next time!" But he thought in his heart: I will never take this kind of challenge again!
I feel that there is nothing to write here, let's get it done with a big chapter!There is another update, but it is estimated to be later!
