Pokémon: The Genetic Researcher Just Wants to Slack Off

Chapter 126 How can this not be a dragon?

The people in the stands began to divide the work, separating the two seemingly antagonistic sides.

The light in A-Du's eyes did not escape Natsuno's notice.

After thinking for a moment, Natsuno decided to stop Watari.

The Cranidos and the Shieldon are both made of pure rock and rock + steel, respectively, and neither of them can fly.

And it's not even a fossil Pokémon from the Kanto region, so it's definitely not suitable for you, Dodo.

Xia Ye turned off the microphone and put it in Xiao Cai's hand, then stepped forward and pulled A Du back.

He whispered to Adu, "Adu, don't be impulsive. Think about Charizard, Gyarados, and Aerodactyl."

A-Du was initially unhappy that Natsuno had pulled her back, but upon hearing his words, her eyes widened.

"really?"

"My intuition tells me there's a very high probability. Don't worry, the professors will be testing the attributes soon."

Natsuno suppressed A-Du's restless heart and looked at the dragons with a suspicious gaze.

At this moment, the people on the field had just separated the pterosaurs and several cephalopods, and hadn't even had a chance to breathe a sigh of relief.

Several Archaeopteryx birds were hopping around on the stands when they suddenly noticed the pool.

At this time, several more newly hatched ammonites appeared in the pool, bringing the total number of them to six floating on the surface.

The ammonites were hiding on the surface of the water at the edge of the pool, huddled in their shells, shivering.

After the little bird noticed that Archaeopteryx had taken notice of them, its body trembled even more violently.

Several Archaeopteryx chirped sharply and hopped quickly toward the pool.

The ammonites cried out in fear and swam swiftly in the pool, trying to hide.

Meanwhile, the primordial birds divided their forces and surrounded the pool.

The ammonites could only huddle together in the very center of the pool, too afraid to move.

The Archaeopteryx pushed off with both feet and were about to pounce on the ammonites in the center of the pool.

It opened its beak, which was full of sharp teeth, in mid-air, and its sharp claws were about to grab the ammonite's shell.

The staff arrived in time and caught them both with a net, separating them.

Natsuno breathed a sigh of relief; the scene was a complete mess and really hard to clean up.

Thankfully, Dr. Blatano won't be coming for the time being due to other commitments, and neither will Dr. Mulan from Galar.

Only nine fossil Pokémon from Kanto, Hoenn, Sinnoh, and Unova were present at the scene.

If we add two types from Carlos and four types from Galar, what kind of chaos would that cause?

Natsuno shook his head, no longer wanting to think about it, and went to assist the professors with their attribute tests.

The staff separated all the different types of Pokémon, and the professors tested them one by one.

The first one to be shown, of course, was the Craniosaurus, which had just made its debut.

Amidst the eager anticipation of everyone, the dragon attribute test returned negative three times in a row.

The live stream was flooded with question marks.

【Wait, why isn't it a dragon? A fire-breathing dragon, you've set a good example!】

【Natsuno, how dare you mess with us? Refund! Oh, you didn't click the link? Then pay us back! Compensation for emotional distress!】

The scene was in an uproar, with various discussions taking place.

Natsuno's attention was focused on the system at the moment, and he was completely unaware that everyone present was cursing him.

[Seven new fossil Pokémon, including Kabuto and Lilich, have been released, and players can continue to earn a large number of points.]

[You will continue to earn points as subsequent evolved forms are released.]

Xia Ye was overjoyed as he watched his influence points surge.

A-Du breathed a sigh of relief as he looked at the test results.

I was glad that I was someone who listened to advice and didn't act impulsively.

Last time I impulsively captured a fossil pterosaur. Although the pterosaur was indeed majestic and imposing, it was a pity that it wasn't a dragon, so I still felt a little regretful.

At this moment, A-Du gave Natsuno a thumbs up, acknowledging Natsuno's sharp intuition.

The murmurs did not deter the doctors from continuing their tests, which focused on various attributes.

Seeing that the rock properties test came back positive three times, the reporters snapped photos and videos on their phones.

Another attribute compatibility resistance surface test was conducted, and the final result was verified to be correct.

Professor Oak announced the results: "Cranioth, Rock type!"

Next up, the Shielded Dragon.

With the two typical cases of fossil pterosaurs and cephalopods preceding them, everyone began to speculate.

I bet a million that this Shieldbearer isn't a Dragon type! If I'm wrong, just pretend I didn't say anything.

[What if? Think about someone young and promising; the one who looks least like a dragon might actually be the dragon!]

The live stream almost spontaneously opened a betting pool, but it was quickly stopped.

When the dragon attribute test came back negative three times, everyone breathed a sigh of relief.

"I knew this thing looked like a skull-shaped dragon; it definitely wasn't a dragon!"

"Did you notice that the previous Aerodactyl, Ammonite, and Cranidos all had the Rock attribute?"

"You mean?"

"Maybe it's just a coincidence. Keep watching, and don't forget to take pictures!"

The testing on stage continued, and the final result was announced: "Shielded Dragon, Steel + Rock!"

The professors then completed the attribute tests on the remaining fossil Pokémon and made them public.

With the announcement of the last attribute, everyone was talking about it.

"Did you notice? All of these Pokémon are Rock-type!"

"Yeah, why is that? Could it be because of the fossils?"

The discussions below the stage reached Xia Ye's ears, and he remembered the mission issued by the system.

He picked up the microphone again: "Everyone, there are still many mysteries surrounding fossil Pokémon."

"We don't know more than everyone else, since the attributes were tested in front of everyone."

"We will continue to work hard to uncover the mystery surrounding them, so please be patient."

After testing the attributes, the professors were already making arrangements to settle the Pokémon.

After all, some were natural enemies of others in ancient times, so it's important to separate them.

Daigo concluded by saying, "Thank you all for coming. This press conference is now over."

"Device is working hard to build a fossil ecosystem where all fossil Pokémon can live together."

"Everyone is welcome to visit then, and thank you again for coming!"

Some of the audience members were reluctant to leave, but they still had no choice but to leave the venue.

Daigo Natsuno and the others began to think of a way to put this large pile of fossil Pokémon away.

It took a lot of effort to finally get it properly settled, and Natsuno was almost exhausted.

The group drank tea in the tea room, and Xia Ye demonstrated his skillful tea-making techniques.

The professors' attention remained focused on the fossil Pokémon, and they began to discuss it among themselves.

As they chatted, they eventually came to the common point about attributes.

"Natsuno, so it's because of the fossils that these Pokémon have all become Rock-type?"

In response to Professor Oak's question, Natsuno took a sip of tea and put down his teacup.

"That's one possibility, but perhaps there are other reasons."

"We should first perform gene sequencing on the fossil Pokémon to obtain their complete gene sequences."

"I will be staying in Changqing City for the time being, so I'll have to trouble you doctors with these matters. I would be extremely grateful."

The PhD students laughed heartily, saying they wouldn't miss such a rare research opportunity.

Mustard Orchid looked at Natsuno with a smile and asked him why he wasn't staying with Devon.

Not wanting Jiezilan to worry, Xiaye did not tell his grandmother about his undercover work.

Xia Ye could only laugh it off: "Because Chang Qing also has an important research project, and I have to keep an eye on it."

At this point, Natsuno suddenly stood up, his expression becoming anxious.

"By the way! I've made a major discovery. Please come back to the lab with me!"
