53: Section 53

“It's worth mentioning that while Charizard possesses powerful Fierce Flames, its body can also withstand very high temperatures. Some powerful Charizard can even bathe in molten lava.”

Regarding Charizard's typing, Zhang Yu actually wanted to complain as well, but alas, that's just how it is, so what could he do?

However, Charizard isn't completely unrelated to Dragon-type Pokémon; at the very least, Super Charizard X is a genuine Dragon-type Pokémon.

He just didn't know when he would be able to make his Charizard Super Evolve.

From the current situation, this goal still seemed a bit too distant. Although he could exchange for Super Stones and Key Stones within the system, the price was truly exorbitant.

And most importantly, he still had several expenses that he didn't have enoughPopular Science Point to pay for.

Originally, Arcanine and two pieces of charcoal were enough to give him a headache, and now there was a Rotom. Even if it didn't seem to be a battle-type Pokémon, he couldn't treat it poorly, could he?

Thus, the energy cube recipe for Rotom was also indispensable.

Fortunately, because Rotom cannot evolve, its recipe would be much cheaper.

Otherwise, Zhang Yu would have to wonder if this was a reward or a disguised punishment.

“No way? Charizard isn't a Dragon-type Pokémon, but a Fire-type and Flying-type Pokémon?”

“Gyarados isn't a Dragon, and Charizard isn't a Dragon? Then what exactly is a true Dragon?”

“This is truly outrageous, it's like outrageous's mother opened the door for outrageous, and outrageous is right at home!”

“Sigh, I thought I had finally seen a Dragon-type Pokémon, but it turned out to be a false alarm again.”

“It seems now that Dragon-type Pokémon are truly quite rare.”

“Although the fact that Charizard isn't a Dragon-type Pokémon is indeed a bit disappointing, it's still very powerful, okay? Just the fact that it can fly thousands of meters is something many birds can't compare to.”

“Indeed, I just don't know which is stronger in terms of flight, Charizard or Corviknight?”

“I'll vote for Corviknight, after all, its wings are big, so it looks stronger.”

“Big wings, huh?”

“Compared to its flying ability, Charizard's most impressive feature is undoubtedly its Fierce Flames, right?”

“Indeed, flames with a temperature of over a thousand degrees Celsius, just thinking about it is outrageous enough.”

“Yes, the melting points of many common metals are roughly this temperature, and some are even less, melting at just a few hundred degrees Celsius.”

“Fun fact, the temperature inside a steelmaking furnace is usually around 165 degrees. If Charizard is powerful enough, it can directly perform live steelmaking for us!”

“I don't know if Charizard can be used for steelmaking, but if he really did perform, I estimate the male Water Friends would find it very difficult to continue the live broadcast.”

“Indeed, it's too dangerous for humans to be exposed to such high temperatures without protection.”

“This Charizard is truly outrageous; not only are its own flames terrifyingly hot, but it can even bathe in lava?”

“It seems that Charizard is much stronger than Arcanine, doesn't it?”

“From the current perspective, Arcanine, apart from its speed advantage, doesn't seem to compare to Arcanine in other aspects.”

“Arcanine? Who's that?”

“You guys are really quite realistic.”

The Water Friends, who had originally thought they had finally seen a Dragon-type Pokémon, were stunned when they heard Zhang Yu's introduction of Charizard's typing.

They never expected that Charizard, a Pokémon whose appearance and name both contained the character for 'Dragon,' would not be a Dragon-type Pokémon.

However, they quickly had no time to deal with these matters, because Zhang Yu's other introductions about Charizard quickly captured their attention.

This caused the Water Friends, who had been somewhat disappointed, to quickly regain interest in Charizard.

So much so that even Arcanine was temporarily neglected by them.

“I'm not an entertainment Anchor; don't even think about the things you're suggesting.”

Zhang Yu noticed the content of some of the bullet comments and couldn't help but twitch his mouth, complaining.

Such things, if said nicely, were entertainment, but if said harshly, they were completely suicidal.

He would never do such a thing.

Moreover, he still had important things to do now, which was... navigating by map.

However, what he was using now was not an ordinary electronic map, but a satellite map, because only this map could give him some understanding of the Unknown Land.

The reason he wasn't in a hurry to find a way up the mountain but was wandering in the forest was not only because he found that there was still a large area of this forest that he hadn't explored, but also because he wanted to see if there were any other relatively dangerous Pokémon in this forest besides Beedrill, and the passing Gyarados and Venusaur.

If he could confirm this, it would be more suitable for those who wanted to become Trainers to come here. Perhaps some of them could gain the recognition of a Pokémon?

It was precisely with this in mind that Zhang Yu prepared to explore this forest more thoroughly.

What Zhang Yu didn't know was that while he was exploring in the forest, a major event was happening in the outside world.

This incident began with the island nation resuming the discharge of nuclear wastewater.

Due to the continuous discharge of nuclear wastewater by the island nation, the pollution in the surrounding sea areas of the island nation was constantly intensifying, and the first to be affected were naturally the creatures living in the water.

Not only ordinary fish, but also many aquatic Pokémon.

Many fish could not withstand the effects of the nuclear wastewater and died directly, while the more robust Pokémon, although not yet in mortal danger, also became very weak under the influence of the nuclear wastewater.

As this situation continued, the overlords of the sea finally lost their patience and began to act!

The first to strike were the Wailord. Relying on their enormous size, which far surpassed that of other Pokémon, they collectively stirred up a massive tsunami, which not only destroyed parts of Japan's coastal cities but also caused the nuclear wastewater to directly flood into the island nation, leaving the island nation's homeland in widespread desolation!

And after the Wailord, a large number of Gyarados gathered towards the island nation. Clearly, they were also preparing to cause trouble now.

If the Wailord's actions were considered slightly milder, then the Gyarados directly unleashed destruction.

Not only the island nation's coastal cities, but even other cities were affected to varying degrees.

Under the wrath of the Gyarados, in just a few hours, almost half of the island nation was completely destroyed. This was the first time Pokémon had shown the people of Blue Star the true destructive power of Pokémon.

As for the so-called battles before?

Pokémon were simply not serious!

If they were to get serious, even a Pokémon like Wailord, which has a gentle personality and usually appears like a good-natured gentleman, once truly angered, the consequences would be quite severe!

And in this information-driven world, information spreads very quickly. Not long after the incident occurred, what happened in the island nation spread throughout the world.

And the Dragon Kingdom, which is adjacent to the island nation, naturally also received the news.

“Holy cow! Have you heard? Gyarados launched a full-scale attack on the island nation, destroying almost half of it in just a few hours!”

“Yes, I even saw live footage! Some Gyarados can even fire energy beams from their mouths; it's truly amazing!”

“I originally thought that Gyarados being able to easily overturn fishing boats and withstand natural disasters was already outrageous enough, but I didn't expect the truly outrageous things to come later.”

“To be honest, I was a little afraid of Gyarados at first, but when I saw them helping the island nation 'fix' their map, I suddenly wasn't afraid of them anymore.”

“To be fair, indeed, as long as you hit the island nation hard, we're good friends!”

“No, can't you have some sympathy? The island nation's people are already so miserable, and you're still in the mood to say these things?”

“Good heavens, even the Leshan Giant Buddha would give up his seat to you!”

“LOL! You don't even think about what the island nation did to our country before? To put it bluntly, you can sympathize with anyone but the island nation's people!”

“To be fair, the island nation completely brought this upon themselves this time, okay? How dare they discharge nuclear wastewater into the ocean again and again? Do they really think there's no price to pay?”

“They not only think there's no price, but they're even proud of it.”

“When I saw their faces back then, I wanted to rush over and punch them. Although I couldn't do that, Gyarados and the others are even fiercer and more satisfying!”

“It's truly satisfying; almost half of the island nation has been destroyed.”

“Upstairs, your news is outdated; now half of the island nation has been destroyed.”

“It's hard to imagine that such powerful Gyarados would evolve from Magikarp?”

“You guys, if I were to catch a Magikarp and raise it now, would it have a chance to evolve into a Gyarados?”

“Your idea certainly sounds good, but the problem is, can you guarantee that it won't attack you first after it truly evolves into a Gyarados?”

After learning about what happened in the island nation, the Water Friends in the live broadcast room once again felt the power of Gyarados.

Coupled with what they did, it immediately made many people interested in Gyarados.

And most importantly, although they had no way to get a Gyarados, it might be different if it were a Magikarp.

Given the number and distribution of Magikarp, they could usually find one if they were willing to spend some time.

The only thing that worried them was the safety issue.

“Regarding the safety issue, you can rest assured.”

“Unless you mistreated it when it was still a Magikarp, it definitely won't attack you randomly after evolving into a Gyarados.”

“However, whether you can gain its recognition at that time is another matter, as Gyarados also has its pride. If you can't impress it, it might just leave.”

“But as long as you establish a good relationship with it when it's still a Magikarp, then it's highly likely to recognize you and be willing to listen.”

Zhang Yu immediately responded after noticing the bullet comments in the live broadcast room.
