LRAB Chapter 124 Heavyweight Fossil Pokémon Launch Event
Chapter 124 Heavyweight Fossil Pokémon Launch Event
Daigo waved his hand: "Go ahead, I still need to coordinate the arrangements for the rest of the trip."
Natsuno shrugged and headed straight to the floor where the research lab was located.
This floor was also packed with people at this time, with staff and security personnel moving among them.
A group of PhDs are directing the loading of various incubation devices onto the vehicle.
Some of the eggs have begun to glow faintly, indicating that they are in the prelude to incubation.
There were so many mouths speaking at the scene that the combined sound was deafening.
Natsuno shouted loudly, but found that no one else could hear him.
He had no choice but to squeeze next to Professor Oak and wave vigorously.
It was only then that everyone noticed Xia Ye's arrival and stopped what they were doing.
Everyone crowded around, and simultaneously launched into a massive praise campaign.
Meanwhile, the staff responsible for moving and loading the goods breathed a sigh of relief.
Seeing that the PhD students' attention had been drawn, they quickly sped up their work.
Soon, carts were surrounded and escorted into the elevator and left the building.
The professors from various regions praised Natsuno extensively, and didn't forget to praise Professor Oki as well.
"Xuecheng, you have such a good eye! You were able to discover Natsuno, this genius researcher."
Seeing that everyone's attention had shifted to Professor Oak, the somewhat shy Natsuno quickly retreated.
He shielded Professor Oak in front of him and accepted everyone's praise.
After listening to the experts discuss among themselves, Xia Ye looked at the somewhat empty laboratory and thought of those fossil eggs.
Peeking out from behind Oki, Hino humbly raised his hand online: "Fellow Doctors, shouldn't we head down to the conference hall?"
The PhDs suddenly realized what was going on, and the group arrived at the massive press conference venue below.
A huge crowd surrounded the stands, with reporters at the very front.
On the stands, staff members arranged a large pile of eggs covered with red cloth.
From the outside, the thing covered by the red cloth is a cylinder, and the size and height are not uniform.
This sparked a flurry of discussion and speculation among the audience about what was inside.
Natsuno followed the professor and his group into the venue, and this time, all eyes were on them.
With several times more cameras than yesterday, Natsuno could no longer withstand the intense barrage of flashes.
He could only take out his sunglasses from his pocket, put them on, and quietly ask Professor Oak next to him if he needed any.
At that moment, Daiki patted Natsuno on the shoulder and said something with a loud laugh.
Unfortunately, the surrounding area was noisy, and even though Natsuno was right next to the professor, she couldn't hear clearly.
But when he looked up and saw how calmly the group of doctoral students were about this place, Natsuno felt a little relieved.
But she still took a few steps forward and asked Grandma Jiezilan about it, pointing to her sunglasses.
Grandma understood, smiled and shook her head, and patted Xia Ye on the shoulder.
He moved his lips a few times, but still no sound was heard.
However, when Natsuno lived in Sinnoh before, he was very close to his grandmother because of Rin.
From Grandma's lip movements, I could roughly tell that she meant, "You'll get used to it eventually."
Xia Ye shrugged helplessly, thankful that he had put away Xiao Cai and Xiao Yuan before going downstairs, otherwise they would have been blindingly bright.
The group arrived at the stands, and Daigo, seeing the main characters arrive, took the microphone and said a few polite words.
Then the microphone was handed to Natsuno.
After yesterday's experience, Natsuno understood that the people below weren't there to see him at all, so he wasn't worried at all.
With the thought in mind that "I'm holding a meeting for Luo Bo," Natsuno began to speak.
"Everyone, let's give a warm welcome to today's main characters, starting with the humanoid group!"
The audience below the stage fell silent, because there were no Pokémon in sight at all in the stands.
Natsuno walked up to Professor Oak with a mischievous grin and began to introduce him.
"Professor Oak, whose main job is a retired Kanto Champion, and his side job is a Pokémon Professor!"
Upon hearing Natsuno's introduction, Professor Oak couldn't help but chuckle, eventually shaking his head and bursting into laughter.
After a few seconds of stunned silence, the audience burst into laughter.
The hypothesis that "humans are actually a type of Pokémon" has been widely discussed in society.
However, opinions differ within academia, and there is no direct evidence, so no one can convince anyone else.
The atmosphere at the scene became more relaxed thanks to Natsuno's encouragement.
However, Natsuno did not use this joking approach to introduce the later doctoral students.
After all, Natsuno is still considered a researcher under Oki, and Oki himself is a humorous person who doesn't mind joking around.
After introducing the doctors, Natsuno walked up to an incubation device with a mysterious expression.
"Everyone, aren't you curious about what's inside? Want to see?"
A torrent of thoughts washed over him, and Natsuno regretted it.
They decided not to conduct this kind of interactive question-and-answer session again, where tens of thousands of people answered together, and the sound was so loud it stunned everyone.
"In that case, let the doctors reveal the true faces of the other main characters!"
Xia Ye took a few steps back before he had a chance to examine the eggs on the platform.
As the doctors unveiled the red cloth one by one, revealing the incubation devices and eggs inside.
The gasps from the audience grew louder and louder as all the eggs began to glow.
Natsuno roughly counted and found that there were nearly 40 eggs on the platform at this time.
Seeing that all the eggs were emitting a glow as if they were about to hatch, Natsuno became curious and pulled Daigo aside to ask him about it.
"I know the first 19 were produced beforehand, but what about the last 18?"
"It must have only been revived last night, how come it's hatching so soon?"
Daigo looked somewhat embarrassed: "It's like this, I forgot about the Flame Body."
"The incubation device can only simulate a very small portion of the effects of the Flame Body."
"I only remembered this last night when the professors reminded me. All the eggs after that had Pokémon to help them hatch."
"So in terms of hatching progress, the later eggs actually caught up, and the later eggs showed signs of hatching before the earlier ones."
Natsuno nodded: "Ah, I had forgotten about it if you hadn't mentioned it."
"But it's good, it also allows me to record the raw data and get the longest incubation time."
Staff members are assisting the doctors in removing the eggs from the incubator.
The lights flashed one after another, and the audience couldn't keep up with them all.
The reporters on site had learned their lesson; most of them started live streaming simultaneously after obtaining permission.
Natsuno quickly released Aya and Madoka from the ball to watch this spectacular sight.
No one spoke; they all craned their necks, trying to get a better look.
"Click!"
The faint sound was amplified, and everyone scanned the eggs on the field intently, searching for the source.
Natsuno could see clearly that it was an egg with a blue upper half and a gray lower half.
Looking at the color scheme, he couldn't immediately recall what fossil Pokémon it was.
"Click click click!"
Suddenly the egg began to shake violently back and forth, and the little creature inside seemed to be quite restless.
Natsuno was also a little excited at this moment, and took a few steps forward, trying to see clearly.
With a sudden jerk, I unknowingly turned the microphone back on.
The next second, a head with a blue top and four sharp spikes on the back of its head emerged.
"Oh, it's Cranidoth, the fossil Pokémon from Sinnoh."
