Chapter 322 Me, the Spokesperson for Ho-Oh, a Strategic Talent of China? A New Exclusive Ability: Po
Chapter 322 Me, the spokesperson for Ho-Oh, a strategic talent of China? My new exclusive ability, "Pokémon Paradise"!
After hanging up the phone, Ye Yinchuan fell into deep thought.
The person who called him held a high position at the Pokémon Center, a special envoy named "A-Jie." The topic of conversation was naturally the arrival of Ho-Oh in Japan, his status as Ho-Oh's representative, and the fact that Ho-Oh had gifted him the Hila Rainbow Stone.
A-Jie stated that Ye Yinchuan has now become the spokesperson for Ho-Oh and has been recognized as a strategic talent of China by the China League and the Pokémon Center, and will be given more preferential treatment and protection.
Ye Yinchuan now has two choices: one is to join the Chinese national team and become a top-level trainee, where he can receive the best guidance from renowned teachers and access to the best resources; the other is to pursue his own career independently, but China will provide him with high-level protection and a special, exclusive assistance channel to ensure his personal safety.
Regarding the latter point, A-Jie specifically mentioned that protection is not surveillance. Specialized trainers will be stationed in the area near Ye Yinchuan to provide protection. They will not monitor personal privacy, but will only observe the surrounding dangers in advance and arrive in time when necessary.
This was a very good offer for Ye Yinchuan, since no one wants to be monitored 24 hours a day, even under the guise of protection; that would be no different from being imprisoned.
He still wants to enjoy life and freedom.
Therefore, Ye Yinchuan would not consider the first option either.
He doesn't need any resources or special training. With the Shadow of the Overlord and the system, as long as he's alive, his strength will steadily increase.
The Chinese side offered this form of protection, which was very useful to Ye Yinchuan and was actually needed.
After all, he has more and more good things on him now, and he will have other gains in the future. Any one of them would be coveted, including his Pokémon.
This attack by the grass-fed gang is most likely just the beginning, and they will inevitably be targeted by evil forces.
With the protection of China, even if it doesn't completely eliminate the enemy's covetousness, it will at least make those who want to take action think twice.
"One must be strong to forge iron. China's protection is merely icing on the cake; it cannot be a lifeline or a guaranteed backer. Only by continuously increasing my own strength can I deter those who are secretly plotting..."
Ye Yinchuan understood that his identity as the Phoenix King's spokesperson was a layer of protection, but at the same time, it might attract even more insane and evil individuals...
After all, even the evil organization in the original work dared to capture and control legendary Pokémon. If they really wanted to control or destroy the world, they weren't afraid of even Ho-Oh, so why would they be afraid of a mere representative like you?
Ye Yinchuan stated his position directly, and the other party did not insist. He only said that he could choose not to join the Chinese national team, but there was one condition: when China faced a crisis and needed the strength of him as the Phoenix King's representative, he must contribute his share.
Ye Yinchuan readily agreed.
His ability to sit comfortably at home and stream, to venture into the wilderness, to encounter dangerous individuals and accidents, and even to receive subsidies after becoming a professional trainer... all of this is inseparable from the fact that he is a part of China.
One must not forget one's roots. When the country is in trouble, Ye Yinchuan would not hesitate to sacrifice his life unless it was the last time.
As for whether he should risk his life... we'll only know when we encounter that.
Before I traveled through time, there was a common argument online that if war broke out in contemporary China, the vast majority of people would become traitors who covet survival if given the chance.
Ye Yinchuan's view on this is that there must be patriots who are full of passion and willing to sacrifice their lives for the country, as well as cowards who are afraid of death and betray their country for personal gain. They cannot be condemned outright.
Asking someone to sacrifice their life for their country is indeed against human nature.
Why were there so many heroes who sacrificed themselves one after another in the past?
Because their homes were destroyed, and all those they cared about and cherished were killed, or even insulted and trampled upon by the enemy, leaving them with nothing behind, their eyes naturally turned bloodshot. They only wanted to fight to the death to kill the enemy, wishing they could skin them alive and drink their blood...
You're telling me you cherish your life? I have nothing left, I don't want anything anymore!
In other words, when this premise exists, everyone is "invincible"!
In addition, A-Jie also mentioned one point—
That is, we hope that Ye Yinchuan can start live streaming again. Right now, both in China and overseas, there is a lot of attention on the Phoenix King incident. If he can start live streaming, not only can he expand his influence as an individual, but it can also bring glory to China and make China famous far and wide!
Although we live in a time of peace, the conflicts of interest and intrigue between regions have never ceased, only unfolding in more subtle forms, such as those related to technology and the economy, and more importantly, the traditions of the Pokémon world, including the contest of Pokémon strength…
In international Pokémon tournaments, including battles and Contests, trainers aren't just doing it for themselves; they're also bringing glory to their country.
"I never imagined that one day my live streams would have this kind of meaning..."
Ye Yinchuan was preparing to change his broadcast location when the system notification arrived, albeit late—
[Ding! This live stream has earned a total of 91756 influence points!]
[Current Reputation Level: VI. Well-known → VII. Resounding Fame! (As a broadcaster, your name is gradually becoming a symbol; when people hear your name, they will think of your achievements and deeds!)]
[An additional 10,000,000 Influence Points are needed to advance to the next Reputation rank!]
Seeing the notification, Ye Yinchuan was overjoyed. He hadn't expected that besides Phoenix King Express, his reputation level would also be upgraded at the same time. It was truly a double celebration...
This time, the system even provided some annotations regarding reputation levels, which made Ye Yinchuan nod in approval. He had a richer experience and a more tangible feeling about improving his reputation level.
"You've heard so much about me! Haha, I used to be a nobody, barely able to get enough to eat with my little Snorlax. Who would have thought I'd end up like this!"
Ye Yinchuan couldn't help but reminisce about the bitter past and appreciate the present.
Along the way, his career flourished, and the Pokémon that accompanied him came one after another. He also met a wonderful girl like Bai Zhi...
All I can say is, things went too smoothly!
But that's to be expected. If a transmigrator with a system by their side can't even achieve this much, it would be too embarrassing!
In that instant, Ye Yinchuan thought of many things, but what he looked forward to most was what kind of surprise the system would give him after the long-awaited increase in his reputation level...
Will the new exclusive ability bring about a qualitative leap for me?
Do you want to claim the new Reputation Gift Pack?
Upon seeing the familiar notification, Ye Yinchuan's gaze sharpened, and he eagerly accepted it!
[You have claimed the Reputation Gift Pack and gained the exclusive skill: Elf Paradise!]
[Exclusive Skill: Elf Paradise]
As a Pokémon streamer, you have the opportunity to encounter many rare and adorable Pokémon, especially after embarking on outdoor adventures. Although you may develop a fondness for them and want to catch them, you struggle to provide them with a stable home and lack the resources and energy to raise and care for them...
Now that you have awakened a new ability, "Pokémon Paradise," you will gain a private, independent space, like a small world, where Pokémon can live, grow various plants and fruits, and be self-sufficient...
At the same time, you can also use the special abilities of "Pokémon Paradise" to grant some Pokémon management authority and special abilities, managing Pokémon through Pokémon and creating their own Pokémon Paradise... This will also be of great help to your existing Pokémon...
In addition, to ensure the effectiveness of your live stream as a streamer, your "Elf Paradise" needs to be connected to a real-world location as a carrier, such as a tourist park or aquarium, in order to fully realize its potential.
By displaying everything related to your Pokémon through a display medium, you can earn extra Influence Points. These points can be used to unlock and redeem special features and items in "Pokémon Paradise," allowing you to better build your own paradise for you and your Pokémon!
Looking at the introduction of this brand-new exclusive ability, Ye Yinchuan's surprise and delight became even more evident.
This new exclusive ability, "Elf Paradise," delighted him and will create even more possibilities!
"I don't know how big 'Pokémon Paradise' is, or how many Pokémon it can hold... But at least this way, I can definitely keep more than just these few Pokémon. If I encounter a Pokémon I like in the wild, as long as it's legal and compliant, I can catch them all without worrying about finding a place to house them or not being able to take care of them!"
Ye Yinchuan was slightly excited.
Doesn't he crave those rare and special Pokémon?
Which Pokémon enthusiast doesn't have a certain desire to collect them?
Especially for transmigrators who have experience with games, catching Pokémon and having their computer cases overflowing is just the norm...
It's just that for various reasons, it's not suitable to subdue it, so I chose to restrain myself...
Now that "Pokémon Paradise" is here, many of his concerns have disappeared, and Ye Yinchuan's passion for catching Pokémon has been reignited.
"However, judging from the looks of it, I'll need to build a real-world Pokémon theme park to fully utilize this unique ability... Hmm, that won't be a small expense!"
Ye Yinchuan is also considering the feasibility of practical implementation and how to put this capability into practice.
"I'll look into how much it costs to open a Pokémon theme park. If I have Pokémon Park to provide resources, I should be able to save a lot of money. And with Pokémon Park, I don't necessarily need to hire people; I can directly empower the Pokémon and let them manage each other. This will not only save a lot of money on labor costs but also add to the unique features of the theme park..."
Thinking about this, Ye Yinchuan's heart was already filled with anticipation.
This means that he, as a streamer, will have to undergo another transformation, from his original role as a treasure-hunting streamer to an outdoor streamer, and now he will also be involved in live streaming from tourist attractions...
"However, if I'm live-streaming the park, do I not need to keep the live stream running myself? I can just keep the camera recording and live-streaming, right? Wouldn't I earn even more influence points then? It's just... I guess I'll need to open a separate live-streaming account."
Ye Yinchuan's lips curled up slightly.
Although I've never actually run a tourist attraction or anything like that, most people have probably played simulation management games. Even if you haven't eaten pork, you've still seen pigs run, right?
With "Elf Paradise," Ye Yinchuan's current asset accumulation, and his background as a broadcaster, it's believed that this tourist park will definitely open smoothly; it's just a matter of time.
"Awesome!"
Ye Yinchuan had originally been thinking about his own villa and such.
Now all I can think about is the Pokémon amusement park, and my own "Pokémon Paradise," where all sorts of Pokémon, including rare, special, and shiny ones, live, filled with laughter and happiness...
It's like a dream come true!
No wonder it's called "Paradise," this is the real utopia!
This time, the system essentially gave me a small world as a gift. Compared to that, the big villa suddenly doesn't seem so appealing anymore; it's practically dispensable!
"Okay, the plans have changed. The big villas will have to wait. The entire tourist park, even if it's a bit simple, can serve as a temporary measure. We can consider relocation or expansion later!"
Ye Yinchuan made up his mind.
Although I really want to enter the so-called "Pokémon Paradise" right now and see my own little world, the future Pokémon utopia...
But Ye Yinchuan knew that he had important business to attend to: restarting the live stream, receiving Phoenix Express, and showcasing China's strength and prestige in a grand and open manner!
To put it simply, let the facts tell everyone that Ye Yinchuan, a Chinese and the spokesperson for the Phoenix King, received gifts from the Phoenix King, which indirectly enhanced China's international influence and status!
Presumably, just like before I traveled through time, if a country made any breakthroughs or progress, such as building an aircraft carrier or launching a rocket, it would announce it to create a sensation among international friends and boost public confidence...
It's just that it's set in the Pokémon world, so it has its own unique features!
Ye Yinchuan had also considered whether to change the location for receiving the Phoenix Express package, since his location might be revealed through some details during the live stream...
However, Ye Yinchuan felt that since he hadn't been too secretive about his previous live streams, and now that he had China's protection, there was no need to go to great lengths.
Live stream, start!
When Ye Yinchuan entered the live stream, he never expected so many viewers to be waiting online, even though the live stream was a black screen when he wasn't streaming...
This is unprecedented.
His personal video account was overflowing with comments and private messages—it's no exaggeration to say it was completely flooded!
When Ye Yinchuan opened the messages, it took forever to load. The messages were refreshing every second, and the number of red notification dots had reached the 999 limit...
"So many people were waiting for me to receive the Phoenix Express package."
Ye Yinchuan's heart stirred. This matter was not difficult to think of, but at this moment, he had a real sense of its reality.
As soon as I clicked "Start Live Stream," the chat exploded like a torrent!
The number of viewers in the live stream also rebounded, growing rapidly and wildly!
[Holy crap! The streamer pulled a counter-attack! Luckily, I was bored and was hanging out in his stream!]
[666! Did the streamer receive a Phoenix Express package, or did he come to his senses and decide to broadcast it live?]
[Awesome Plus! Everyone, get hyped! Phoenix King spokesperson, tonight we will witness Chinese history, a nationwide celebration!]
