Chapter 235 The Distance to the M77 Nebula

Because, even in his previous life, some of the Pokémon that Xuan Mingtian had seen had descended to Earth from outer space.

The most well-known ones include: Sun Rock, Moon Stone, and Pipi, etc.

The Sun Rock has a round, orange body with eight yellow rock spikes protruding from its sides. There are patterns formed by many small yellow stones on the front and back of its body.

The eyes of the Sun Rock are large and distinctive, with thick, semi-circular eyelids through which red pupils can be seen in the black slits. Each eye has a ring-shaped pattern and three black markings above and below it.

Sun Rock is a new species that fell from the universe. In the world of elves, it is said to be a manifestation of the sun.

The sun's energy is the source of its power. On sunny days, they line up to face the sun and accumulate solar energy, so they are very strong during the day.

It floats silently in the air, always with an expressionless face, and can read the thoughts of its opponents. When it spins its body, it emits a sun-like light that temporarily blinds its enemies.

However, research suggests that this solar rock is very likely an elf brought there by a meteorite in ancient times.

The moonstone resembles a crescent moon. It has red eyes on both sides of its body and a distinctive beak-like structure at the front of its body.

The moonstone was first discovered at the site of a meteorite impact several decades ago.

Because it was found at the site of a meteorite impact, there is a theory that this Pokémon comes from outer space. The waxing and waning of the moon seems to affect its physical condition and the increase or decrease of its power. When bathed in the light of a full moon, its power is also filled with its whole body.

It becomes particularly active on the night of the full moon, floating and moving through the air. Its red eyes are powerful and can instill fear in those who see them; simply gazing at an enemy can put them to sleep.

Indeed, in Xuan Mingtian's understanding, the Moonstone spirit arrived here along with a meteorite.

On the other hand, the Pipi clan is much more interesting.

Pippi has pink fur, a star-shaped body, and small wings on its back. It has three toes on each hand and only one toe on each foot. It has a small tooth in its mouth and wrinkles around its eyes.

Its ears are pink with brown tips. There is a tuft of curly hair on the top of its head between its ears, and its tail is also curly.

Clefairy is a Pokémon that is almost never seen. It is believed to live with its companions in the quiet mountains, and incredibly, it is seen in many places on the night of a full moon.

On the night of the full moon, Pippi, appearing from nowhere, gather together to dance and play with boundless energy, and the surrounding area is enveloped by an unusual magnetic field.

It seems to float in the air by gathering moonlight on its wings, which glow faintly in the moonlight, and its dancing figure is as lovely as a fairy.

Even without flapping its wings, it can float and dance in the air. At dawn, the tired Pipi will return to the quiet deep mountains to snuggle up and sleep with their companions.

It is said that if you see Clefairys dancing together on a full moon night, you will be blessed with happiness. It is a Pokémon that is popular for its cute behavior and calls, and many people are fascinated by it.

It's popular as a pet, but because it doesn't have many habitats and is relatively rare, it's not easy to spot. If you casually take it out to show off, it will attract the attention of thieves.

Sometimes, these Pipi will gather their companions and sneak into human settlements to collect any useful resources they can find to repair their spaceships.

Among the Pipi, the most well-known are the Pipi clan who live in Mt. Tsukimi.

The area where the tribe lived has now become the Tsukimi Mountain Pipi Tribe Reserve, protected by the Alliance.

However, according to written records and information from elders, the Clefairy clan of Mount Tsukimi is protected by a champion-level Clefairy.

This forced the alliance to establish a protected area for them, as I've heard from my elders.

When the Pipi clan arrived, it wasn't that no one wanted to take advantage of them.

The first to be affected was our Pokémon League, which at the time sent champion-level Pokémon to 'deal with' them.

Some wealthy individuals and Pokémon hunters, upon seeing Clefairy and Clefairy's appearance, were overjoyed and devised various methods to capture and poach them.

Unfortunately, the Pipi clan wasn't going to be trifled with. They had submitted an entry application before coming to this planet.

Otherwise, they would have been hunted down by the Rayquaza before even entering the atmosphere.

Therefore, after numerous negotiations, the alliance had no choice but to recognize Pippi's right to reside, which is now the most famous Pippi gathering place on Mount Tsukimi.

However, the Pipi also contributed some of their spaceship's technology, resulting in the rapid advancements in technology we see today.

……

But anime is anime after all, and it can't be compared to this real world of elves at all.

Therefore, after a brief period of shock, Xuan Mingtian gradually recovered his composure.

"So, how far is this so-called M77 Nebula from here?"

The speaker was Mr. Chi Mu, dressed in a suit and tie.

The meaning behind his words was perfectly clear to all the adults present. Even our Xuan Mingtian understood it.

"Heh~ Ha~ You human are really strange. What? You want to go to my planet? I advise you to give up on that idea. Let's not even talk about whether you have the technology."

My partner and I, alone, drove at near-light speed in the vacuum of space for several years, not counting the various cosmic creatures we encountered along the way.

As soon as he finished speaking, Deoxys, though charred black from being struck by 100,000 volts, still spoke with undisguised sarcasm.

However, everyone was quite shocked by what he said next.

Even traveling at near the speed of light in the vacuum of space would take several years. At our current speed of sound, how many years would that take?

It's truly a case of "you don't know until you think about it, and once you do, you're shocked."

Furthermore, the universe is dotted with countless unknown spirits, like stars scattered throughout the heavens. If humans were to use their current supersonic spaceships, they wouldn't even be able to reach them; they would likely die of old age en route.

This is the best-case scenario; if things get any worse, they might be attacked and killed by cosmic spirits before even leaving the solar system.

Thinking about this, I can't help but sigh that Earth is still the safest place.

"That……"

"Alright, alright, now that you've finished your questions, I'll take them back to Viridian City. By the way, Professor Oak and Renren, are you coming with me?"

Xuan Mingtian saw that Mr. Chi Mu still wanted to ask more questions, and immediately interrupted him without hesitation.
