Chapter 998 Becoming Monster
"I haven't eaten the chocolate cake yet?!"
Mamane obviously didn't want to leave yet, but when Lillie turned her head and stared at him with her ice-cold eyes, his throat slid up and down unconsciously and he swallowed a mouthful of saliva.
“No...I don’t want to eat anymore..." Mamane’s voice trembled a little, and he shook his head very obediently.
"Everyone follow me!" Liliae said expressionlessly, then turned around and led everyone out of Lusamine's office.
"Ah~ Little Nebula! Oh... no, Miss Liliae!" Seeing Xiaozhi taking Little Nebula away together, Zaobo hurriedly followed, muttering to himself.
"Are you going to the ecological reserve? Then let me lead the way!" Pico turned her head and smiled at Lusamine, winking, "Leave it to me!"
Then he followed everyone out.
In the elevator leading to the ecological reserve, Liliae was still furious, and kept muttering, "Mother, it's always like this. Why do I have to follow her pace? This is too unfair!"
The ecological protection area is located on the top floor of the Ether Paradise!
"This is the ecological protection center that Aether Paradise is most proud of!" Bi Ke introduced it to everyone enthusiastically with a smile on her face.
Everyone's eyes were attracted by the scene before them, and they couldn't help but exclaim in amazement.
"Wow, it's so spectacular!"
"This is unbelievable, this is actually indoors!"
"Yeah, it's really hard to describe it in words!"
Everyone looked around and was shocked by the environment in the ecological park. Although Xiaozhi's island was also man-made, it was built with the full support of the alliance, and the two sides were completely incomparable.
All kinds of Pokémon live freely here. Even those huge flying Pokémon can fly freely here.
At this moment, a gurgling sound suddenly came from the artificial lake on one side. The ball sea lion immediately noticed the sound, and immediately pulled the corner of Shuilian's clothes and pointed to the lake.
"What's wrong, sea lion? Did you find something?" Shui Lian looked in the direction the sea lion was looking with curiosity, and saw strings of bubbles constantly popping up on the water surface not far away, as if something was stirring underwater.
At this moment, the movement in the lake suddenly became louder and louder, and ripples began to appear on the originally calm lake surface. This abnormal phenomenon soon attracted the attention of Xiaozhi and others, and they all turned their eyes to the lake.
Everyone stared at the lake, wondering what Pokémon caused the commotion? Just then, a loud "splash" was heard, and a figure in a black diving suit suddenly broke out of the water like a cannonball, splashing high.
Immediately afterwards, a chubby little Snorlax emerged from the water. It swam slowly to the shore and finally stood steadily beside the figure.
"Are there guests?" The figure shook off the water droplets on his body, then reached out and took off the diving helmet on his head, revealing his true face.
"Dr. Barnett!" Xiaozhi recognized the person who suddenly appeared at a glance and greeted him.
"Alola, Xiaozhi!" Dr. Barnett responded with a smile and a wave at Xiaozhi.
"Dr. Barnett is here to help mother with her research!" Liliae immediately introduced the two parties. "Doctor, these are the friends I met at the Pokémon School!"
"Alola!" Mao and the others also greeted Professor Barnett.
"Alola!" Dr. Barnett pointed at Snorlax beside him and introduced, "This is my partner, Snorlax! We are now confirming which Pokémon are suitable for survival in this protected area!"
As she spoke, she pointed to the surrounding environment and continued to explain: "I usually observe the situation here by diving."
However, Zaobo, who was standing nearby, crossed his arms and showed a disdainful expression, and interrupted: "But there is actually no need to dive and observe frequently!"
Dr. Barnett was not angry at what Zaobo said. She just smiled and responded, "Really? But I think it's fun and rewarding to do this. Isn't it great?"
Beside her, Pico nodded in agreement and said, "Yes, I think this is great!"
Dr. Barnett then introduced to everyone: "This Aether Paradise is an artificial island specially built by the Aether Foundation to protect Pokémon!"
Just then, Nebula crawled out of Xiaozhi's backpack and left with a curious look on his face. Mew, noticing it, followed.
"This facility was built specifically to take in Pokémon that are injured or separated from their packs outside, to help them recover, and to help them return to nature!" Dr. Barnett said as he led everyone to a house that looked like a breeding room.
The walls of this house are made of transparent glass, so one can clearly see what is going on inside. Dr. Barnett suddenly stopped and said, "Look, this is Ditto!"
There were many Ditto on the floor of the house! Xiaozhi was also surprised to see this, after all, this is not a game, in the real world of Pokémon, Ditto is very rare!
"Ditto?" Mao asked, tilting his head, looking puzzled.
At this moment, the Rotom Pokédex suddenly flew over and said excitedly: "Leave this to me, Loto!"
"Ditto, a transformation Pokémon with normal attributes, can transform into other creatures by reorganizing the cells in its body." The Rotom Encyclopedia introduces the information about Ditto in detail, allowing everyone to have a more comprehensive understanding of this Pokémon.
Everyone became curious after hearing this. They had never seen such a magical Pokémon before! In fact, Mew also has the ability to transform, but it has never been shown before.
"Once it transforms, it's almost impossible to distinguish it from other Pokémon. So, in order to make it more convenient to take care of these little guys, we have to place them in the same room." Pico explained standing aside.
While they were talking, there was a soft "beep" sound, and Dr. Barnett came forward and pushed the door open gently. "Now, we have to start vaccinating these little guys!"
Dr. Barnett smiled and turned to look at everyone, "Everyone, are you interested in coming over to help?"
"Okay!" everyone answered in unison and nodded in agreement.
