Pokémon: The Journey of Bonds

Suddenly, thick fog rose and the island disappeared from the sight of Wu Yao and others. Wu Yao sensed something and ran to the stern of the ship and looked back, only to see that the island that was originally in front of everyone suddenly appeared behind them.

"This is normal. We just need to wait for it to clone itself. Blindly chasing it will only waste electricity." said the giant mantis.

After a while, the fog rose again and the island that was originally at the stern of the ship appeared on the left side of the ship, and then on the right side. After a while, five islands suddenly appeared.

"We have to choose an island to enter. If we go the wrong way, we will be lost in this ocean forever. I will lead the way and help you eliminate a wrong answer." After saying this, the giant mantis planned to fly to an island.

"No, I can feel that the island in the northeast corner is real."

"Really? How about I help you explore the way first!"

"Although I'm 100% sure that's true, you should still go and check it out."

The giant mantis quickly headed for the island and came back a few seconds later.

"It's that island for sure, let's go there quickly!"

Everyone turned the boat around and headed towards the northeast corner, and soon reached the island.

"What about this ship? Who will guard it? What if something unexpected happens?"

"Let me do it. Since I can't use my skills, I'll just stay on the boat." said the chief of the Staff-tailed Scaled Dragon.

"Okay, then let's go deeper into the island." Wu Yao followed his instincts and took the lead, starting to cross the foggy road.

"The fog wasn't that thick when I came here last time!" The giant mantis frowned.

"It's okay, everyone, follow me closely, don't go too far away, let's walk hand in hand!"

After walking forward for a while, two blurry black shadows appeared in front of everyone.

Wu Yao took off the gun and skillfully turned on the safety.

"Everyone take out your guns, this must be a zombie!"

In order to avoid accidentally hurting normal people, Wu Yao shouted in the common language: "Who is on the other side? Tell me your name!"

"roar~"

The only answer to Wu Yao's question was a roar, and a figure in the fog quickly ran towards the crowd.

"Boom, bang, bang!"

After Wu Yao fired a gun, two zombies fell to the ground. No other zombies surrounded them.

"Let's keep going!" Wu Yao said.

No zombies appeared along the way, and there was not even any sound. It was so quiet that it was scary. Everyone followed Wu Yao all the way to the house in the center of the island.

"No one is left behind?"

"no!"

"One, two, three, four... Good thing no one is left behind."

"But I feel like someone is missing?" Han Ye said.

"Not one of the five people was left behind. You are worrying too much!"

"I must be worrying too much."

Wu Yao suddenly found something wrong.

"Where's the giant mantis?"

"Who is he? I have no impression of him at all." Sun Qing said.

The other three also shook their heads to indicate that they didn't know.

"I've been feeling something is wrong since just now. It seems like we forgot someone. It turns out to be the giant mantis!"

"Who is this giant mantis you are talking about?" Sun Qing was very confused.

"Alice, you should have taken some photos of him, right?"

"Let me look... Ah! There is indeed an unfamiliar guy in the photo..."

This is a photo taken when the giant mantis was telling the story.

Suddenly, in full view of everyone, the giant mantis in the photo disappeared.

"Photo...is there anything unusual?" Sun Qing said.

"The biggest anomaly is probably why I took an empty photo. This is so strange. Did I touch it by mistake?"

"No way? You've just forgotten what you saw? This is too weird! By the way, Han Ye, why aren't you affected?"

She opened her collar and pulled out a necklace from inside her clothes. The necklace was glowing at this moment. “This is the amulet my father made for me. It seems to have resisted this strange memory erasure.”

"What are you talking about? Let's go inside!"

The two looked at each other and decided to go into the house first.

Wu Yao turned the door handle, but it was no use; the door was locked.

"Looks like we need a key."

"No, come out, it's hot..." Sun Qing's hand that was about to take the Poké Ball was held down by Wu Yao.

"Have you forgotten what Mantis said about the Pokémon's attacks not only failing to penetrate doors, but also attracting zombies?"

"Brother Yao, why do you keep mentioning a non-existent guy? This door looks very easy to destroy. Let go of my hand and let me do it!"

Seeing that he was trying to break free and try to grab the ball with his other hand, Wu Yao knocked him out with a knife.

"Darling, are you okay? Wu Yao, as his good friend, you actually treat him like this! His idea is very reasonable in my opinion. This broken wooden door can be easily smashed by Pokémon!"

"Mr. Wu, you seem to be a little too unfriendly to your companions, don't you?"

When Wu Yao heard what they said, he got furious. I was helping everyone but I was framed!

His anger caused the Jade Bug Slate to vibrate, and the vibration of the slate caused the treasures on the three underground floors to vibrate. Then, the fog around them began to dissipate, and the turbidity in the eyes of the two men gradually dissipated and became bright again.

"I am your captain, everything I said is right, you all have forgotten what Scyther said, only I still remember it! You should listen to me! Instead of blaming me! And Sun Qing was just knocked unconscious by me, he is fine at all!" Wu Yao roared.

"I'm sorry, we don't know what happened, we suddenly forgot everything. Now we all remember it, I hope you don't blame Darling for the wrong command."

"Yeah, I also suddenly forgot something. I'm sorry for blaming you just now."

"It's okay. I'm not a narrow-minded person. This is not your fault. It's the treasure's fault. Let's find the key and get out!"

After everyone walked around the area, they found nothing.

"Is there no clue as to where the key is hidden?"

"This isn't a puzzle game. Where did the clue come from?"

"I think the key is usually hidden in a flower pot or under a rug."

"Okay, let's search the suspicious places again. It would be great if Rotom was still awake. He could find the problematic areas, but unfortunately the signal has been blocked since it landed on the island, and Rotom himself has fallen asleep."

after a while.

"I found it! It's under a flowerpot at the back of the house," said Alice.

"Okay, now is the time to witness a miracle!"

Wu Yao inserted the key into the keyhole, turned it, and with a click, the door opened.
