The chapter get Retranslated
Afterward, Jiang Chen bid farewell to Ye Wei; he still wanted to explore Maple Leaf City.
Challenging the gym didn't take long. From the moment Jiang Chen entered until he exited, it was only about half an hour.
He took out his phone and checked the map of Maple Leaf City.
"Let's go to Maple Leaf Park."
Maple Leaf Park boasts countless ornamental maple trees, a signature sight of Maple Leaf City. The city's abundance of maple trees is also the origin of its name.
"Gardevoir~!"
"Meowth!"
Upon arriving at Maple Leaf Park, Gardevoir and Meowth simultaneously tugged on Jiang Chen, pointing their small fingers at a stall near the park entrance.
It was an ice cream stall. Seeing Gardevoir and Meowth unable to move, Jiang Chen knew they were craving sweets.
"Come on, let's go over."
At the ice cream stall, Jiang Chen told the clerk, "Three ice creams, please."
"Gardevoir~!"
Gardevoir tugged at Jiang Chen, then indicated it wanted two.
Meowth, beside it, was even greedier, indicating it wanted three.
"Should I just buy you all the ice cream on the entire stall?" Jiang Chen looked exasperatedly at the two greedy little guys.
Who knew that upon hearing Jiang Chen's words, the two immediately nodded eagerly.
"I underestimated your greed."
"Little brother, your two Pokémon are really interesting. Here, this one's on me."
The stall owner chuckled at the two Pokémon, then offered Jiang Chen an ice cream for free.
"Oh, I couldn couldn't possibly."
Jiang Chen still paid, buying two for each of the greedy duo. Meowth was a little unhappy, as it had wanted three.
"Don't pout. I'll treat you to cake later."
Upon hearing about cake, Meowth's eyes lit up. The allure of cake was even greater than ice cream.
If it weren't for the ice cream in its paws, it would surely have pounced on Jiang Chen excitedly.
"I didn't expect so many tourists here."
Once inside Maple Leaf Park, Jiang Chen realized there were many people visiting.
Maple Leaf City isn't a large metropolis, but its tourism industry is very developed due to its numerous scenic spots, attracting many visitors.
Last time Ling Wanqiu came to challenge the gym, her biggest regret was not having had the chance to enjoy the sights of Maple Leaf City properly.
Walking along the path, Jiang Chen attracted a lot of attention. He was handsome, and he was accompanied by two rare Pokémon.
Gardevoir was already rare, and Jiang Chen's Gardevoir was a Shiny Pokémon, making it even rarer, naturally drawing gazes.
As for Meowth, its appearance was inherently captivating, which many people didn't recognize.
Quite a few people had already approached him, asking for information about Meowth, and wanting to catch one themselves.
"It seems a man traveling alone really needs to be careful out there."
Looking at the note cards in his hand, Jiang Chen tossed them directly into a trash can. They were all given to him by women.
"Gardevoir."
Seeing Jiang Chen discard the cards, Gardevoir immediately relaxed. It had wanted to beat up those annoying women earlier.
He took out a camera and intentionally took some photos when he encountered beautiful scenery.
"I feel my photography skills aren't bad."
After taking a few photos, Jiang Chen looked at them with satisfaction. Although he couldn't compare to professionals, among amateurs, Jiang Chen was quite skilled.
Maple Leaf Park was quite large. After wandering for a few hours, he finally explored the entire park.
There were many Pokémon in the park, even some relatively rare ones. However, catching Pokémon here was not permitted.
If anyone dared to capture Pokémon here without authorization, they would immediately be arrested.
Leaving Maple Leaf Park, Jiang Chen took out his phone and called Sister Ning Ya.
"Sister Ning Ya, I won't be returning today. I plan to explore Maple Leaf City a bit more."
Besides Maple Leaf Park, Maple Leaf City had other attractions, and Jiang Chen planned to visit them tomorrow. So he wouldn't be returning tonight.
"Understood, Young Master. Please be careful outside."
"Don't worry, Sister Ning Ya, who could possibly hurt me?"
He had a Legendary Pokémon with him, so who could possibly harm Jiang Chen? Even without it, not many people could threaten Jiang Chen.
After hanging up, Jiang Chen found a hotel and temporarily checked in.
"Meowth."
Meowth stared at Jiang Chen, its eyes filled with inquiry.
"Don't worry, I won't forget to take you for cake."
Meowth was asking about what Jiang Chen had promised earlier. Jiang Chen certainly wouldn't forget; if he did, Meowth would probably throw a huge tantrum.
With an eager Meowth and Gardevoir, he went downstairs, found a well-known dessert shop nearby, and treated them to a delightful meal.
Meowth and Gardevoir were quite satisfied, but Jiang Chen was truly sick of sweets; he felt he wouldn't want to eat them for a month.
[Ding, check-in successful. Congratulations to the host for obtaining: Key Stone X1, Points +100]
"Good luck, I actually got a Fallen Stone."
Although Jiang Chen already had an Key Stone, the Key Stone was valuable. At least it was much better than getting some money and berries.
He temporarily put away the Key Stone. In reality, Key Stone were even harder to find than Mega Stones. These items were highly valuable, whether for personal use or future sale.
"Wake up, my sleepy little one, it's time to get up."
He reached out and patted Meowth, who rubbed its eyes drowsily, looking at Jiang Chen with confusion.
Being disturbed from sleep was very annoying. If it wasn't Jiang Chen who disturbed it, Meowth would not have let it go.
"You little guy, can't you get enough sleep?"
Jiang Chen tapped Meowth's head, then, after washing up, left the hotel with Gardevoir and Meowth.
Yesterday, Jiang Chen had already made his travel plans. Yesterday he visited Maple Leaf Park, the most famous place in Maple Leaf City, and today Jiang Chen planned to go mountain climbing.
Plans are subject to change. Just as Jiang Chen was about to go mountain climbing, his phone suddenly rang.
"What does Dad need me for?"
Jiang Chen answered the phone curiously.
"I need your help with something."
Jiang Yuan's tone was very serious.
"Something you need my help with? What could you not solve that I need to solve?"
"Could it be related to a Legendary Pokémon?"
Suddenly, Jiang Chen thought that there really were things that even a Champion like Jiang Yuan couldn't solve.
For example, matters concerning Legendary Pokémon were beyond Jiang Yuan's capabilities, but Jiang Chen might be able to handle them.
"Yes, it's related to a Legendary Pokémon. A recently appeared Secret Realm has a Legendary Pokémon, and someone accidentally angered it. Now that Legendary Pokémon is about to go berserk."
"It's estimated that it won't be long before it breaks out of the Secret Realm. When that happens, the destruction caused by a Legendary Pokémon will be unpredictable. The situation is extremely urgent, and we need your help." Jiang Yuan quickly explained to Jiang Chen.
"What kind of Legendary Pokémon? It's not that I can't help, but it has to be within my capabilities."
His Meowth was still in its infant stage, currently only a Sub-Legendary Pokémon. If it angered a Legendary Pokémon (Tier 1), it would definitely be unable to handle it.
Not to mention a Tier 1 Legendary Pokémon, even a Tier 2 Legendary Pokémon would be too much for Jiang Chen.
"It's Articuno. We don't ask you to defeat Articuno, just to appease its wrath."
"Oh, it's Articuno. Then that's no problem."
A mere Sub-Legendary Pokémon like Articuno, although Meowth's current strength was also that of a Sub-Legendary Pokémon, there was still a difference in combat power. Without saying it could definitely defeat it, it could certainly stand in an undefeated position.
"Little guy, you'll have to work hard this time. When we get back, I'll let you eat all the cake you want." Jiang Chen patted Meowth's head.
Then, following the address Jiang Yuan gave him, he had Meowth take him there.
"You arrived quickly."
Seeing Jiang Chen arrive, Jiang Yuan finally relaxed. Beside him, another Champion, Zheng Qiyuan, also felt their mind ease.
If they had to face a Legendary Pokémon directly, the outcome would surely be certain death.
"This is Meowth."
He didn't look at Jiang Chen's Shiny Gardevoir. Although Shiny Gardevoir was rare, it was worlds apart compared to Meowth.
"Has that Articuno not come out yet?"
"Not yet, but it's probably close. Once it finds an exit, it will definitely come out. Then, we'll only be able to rely on Meowth."
Jiang Yuan, now relieved, let go of his tense mind.
With Meowth, they wouldn't lose, at least.
"I'm very curious, how did Articuno get angered? Who would be so bored as to provoke a Legendary Pokémon?"
Jiang Chen scanned his surroundings, wanting to know who was so daring.
Hearing Jiang Chen's question, Jiang Yuan and Zheng Qiyuan both showed anger on their faces.
"This Articuno in the Secret Realm was injured. Someone discovered it and became greedy, wanting to capture the injured Articuno. That guy has already been frozen into an ice sculpture by the enraged Articuno."
"Although that guy died, his death was too cheap."
"Did he really think an injured Legendary Pokémon was easy to mess with? Even I wouldn't dare provoke an injured Legendary Pokémon. I don't know where that bastard got the courage."
"Various countries' strategy for Legendary Pokémon is to befriend them. By befriending Legendary Pokémon, one can request their help in times of crisis."
"This Articuno was originally an opportunity. In its injured state, if they had helped heal its wounds and established a friendly relationship with it, they would have gained the protection of another Legendary Pokémon."
"Now, not only did they fail to build a good relationship with the Legendary Pokémon, but they also angered Articuno."
