Pokemon: I am really a civilian trainer

Just like the last time, with a roar in the brain, Mark and the Caterpillar became dizzy for a short time.

Gently stroking his forehead, Mark quickly woke up.

I feel a little dizzy, but it's not serious.

Mark looked around and inexplicably felt as if he had forgotten something important, but he couldn't remember it no matter how hard he tried.

Next to him, the green caterpillar was looking around like him, looking a little confused.

"Come to think of it, why did I faint just now?"

Mark frowned in thought, but didn't think for too long.

Because Mark knew that what he should do now was to practice his spirit master skill [Impact Training Method (Accumulated Power Attack)] to take it to the next level.

After traveling through time, he became a spirit master. In the process of instructing the Caterpillar to practice collision, he has already comprehended the [Collision Training Method (Accumulating Power to Strike)].

Compared to ordinary [Impact], the power of [Impact (Charged Power Attack)] is significantly increased.

But in his opinion, it is far from enough.

If the skill move [Collision] is placed in the world of martial arts.

The [Impact] that the Caterpillar initially comprehended from its bloodline genes could only be considered a glimpse of the basics.

The [Impact (Charged Power Attack)] he developed together with Caterpillar can be considered to be a master's degree.

And above the level of mastery, there is perfection and returning to simplicity.

Returning to basics is Mark's goal.

To describe it using the swordsmanship of the famous martial arts character Dugu Qiubai, it means not being bound by objects, and grass, wood, bamboo, and stone can all be used as swords.

The same goes for [Impact]. He wants to simplify [Impact (Charged Power Strike)] so that it looks ordinary but has extraordinary speed and power.

Mark closed his eyes and thought.

Although he had a general idea, he had not yet found the starting point for taking the first step towards returning to basics.

While thinking, Mark opened his backpack, took out the "Encyclopedia of Pokemons in the Shia Kingdom (I)" and "Encyclopedia of Pokemons in the Shia Kingdom (II)" and read them carefully.

The thickness of the two books is different, the second one is much thinner than the first one.

"Strange, why do I feel like there should be many books, and the content of these two books seems to be missing a lot, especially the second one, it seems that half of the copies were not printed..."

Mark kept thinking, but he still couldn't find the reason for the missing books. Instead, he discovered another suspicious point.

——The style of his backpack is a bit strange.

His backpack didn't seem to be used specifically for carrying books. It seemed that there was something in it, but he couldn't remember what it was.

"This shape looks like an ostrich egg. Do you have any impression of the green caterpillar?"

Mark asked the green caterpillar next to him, who shook his head, obviously not sure either.

Mark didn't think too much about these details and quickly continued to think about the [Impact Training Method].

Because he couldn't find a suitable entry point, Mark picked up a wooden stick and wrote and drew on the mud in a nearby open space, writing down some key points of knowledge that he remembered before the time travel.

He decided to summarize all the knowledge he had acquired.

Caterpillar accompanied Mark at first, but later got bored and started practicing [Collision] on his own in a nearby open space, trying to incorporate Raticates's [Lightning Flash] technique into it.

And just like that, a day passed.

Three days later...

Five days... Ten days...

A month passed inadvertently, and the nearby open space was filled with densely written words by Mark.

Mark was mumbling something in his mouth as if he was possessed.

"Return to the basics... bright power, dark power, transformation power... the divine will is connected, not even a feather can be added, not even a fly can land..."

Mark, who was muttering to himself, suddenly roared in frustration and kept erasing the words written on the mud. When there were no more words on the ground, he continued to write on the ground with a wooden stick.

One day, two days, three days...

After writing for three consecutive days, Mark erased the words on the ground again and continued to write new content.

Mark spent the next year repeating this process.

In fact, it cannot be said to be a year. To be precise, it is nearly five years. Mark has been writing and drawing in the open space nearby and continuing to study.

Mark's Caterpillar first practiced the [Impact] technique by himself in a nearby open space, and later accompanied Mark in thinking.

Then in the sixth year, Mark stopped studying and set aside a few hours every day to sit in meditation, trying to find a way to advance the [Impact Training Method] from the heavens and nature.

In the end, it still didn't work.

Time passed, and for ten years, Mark gained very little.

And after these ten years.

Mark suddenly had a feeling that as long as he chose to give up, he would wake up and end it all, and all his troubles and confusions would disappear.

Mark didn't know what waking up meant, and he didn't want to know.

Because he doesn't plan to give up, nor does he plan to end.

He still sits in the forest every day to meditate, feel the nature of heaven and earth, and study hard every day...

Time goes by, year after year...

"Returning to the original state, how can we achieve it..."

Mark sighed as he walked with the Caterpillar in the forest. Before they knew it, they came to a familiar place.

Blue sky, white clouds, endless grassland, and some puddles on the grassland.

This is where he traveled to this world.

Through the reflection in the puddle, Mark saw an extremely old figure, and he also felt the decline of his body functions.

"Am I... already that old?"

Mark reached out and touched his wrinkled cheek.

"Back to basics...Back to basics..."

Mark muttered to himself, and between words it seemed as if something was suddenly pulled out of his body. The world in his eyes lost its color and turned black and white.

He could no longer control his body, and his black and white vision became increasingly darker. Not long after, he fell backwards and fell straight down...

The caterpillar on the side noticed that Mark fell, and promptly cushioned under Mark to prevent him from getting hurt, but found that Mark's body had stopped moving, including his heartbeat and breathing.

It crawled out from under Mark and stared at his face blankly.

I saw Mark's eyes that were full of unwillingness and had lost their luster.

——The master is dead.

Buzz——

Accompanied by a strange buzzing sound, the image in the Caterpillar's sight began to shatter and collapse...

…

…

When the Caterpillar came to his senses, he saw his young master not far away.

It wiped its eyes in disbelief, then threw itself into Mark's arms, tears streaming down its face.

"Hiss, hiss, hiss!"

Mark gently rubbed the Caterpillar's head, wiped its tears and said, "I've told you all this, this is the effect of adding some points, that experience didn't really happen, it was the same as the last collision that we practiced for more than three years, but this time it will take a little longer, don't cry, it's like a real separation of life and death."

"Hiss?"

"Yes, that experience didn't really happen." Mark recalled that memory, sighed and continued: "But it is still very real. After forty-seven years and three months of painstaking research, I still couldn't understand the secret of returning to nature in the end. It seems that I am just an ordinary person..."

Mark said as he opened the system panel.

Judging from the memories of those forty-seven years, his addition of points this time should have failed. After all, he died of exhaustion and energy without being able to find the way to return to nature.

But if you look at the system panel at this time, his addition of points was still successful.

…

[Mark]

[Features: Scale powder]

[Special Ability: Evolution]

[Skills: Impact (charged attack, instant attack, hard and soft penetrating attack, multi-stage combo), spinning]

…

After forty-seven years of painstaking research, although he ultimately failed and never understood the secret of returning to nature until his death, he did achieve some results, not insignificant.

He and Caterpillar referred to Rada's [Lightning Flash] and successfully perfected [Impact (Instant Strike)], which can launch an impact at super fast speed.

Similarly, he and Caterpillar developed the [Impact (Hard and Soft Penetrating Strike)] based on the hard-soft technique used by Monster Power, giving the impact the effect of penetrating and destroying.

In addition, he and Caterpillar also developed [Impact (Multiple Combos)], which allows Caterpillar to perform up to seven consecutive impacts in a very short period of time...

…

…

Ps: In order to prevent some readers from not getting the point and thinking that the protagonist is a loser who has practiced for decades but still cannot succeed, and feeling unhappy, I will explain it here.

The points added by the protagonist are not fixed in their direction, but are based on the protagonist's ideas.

Ordinary people can add points to [Impact] and develop an [Impact (Strong Impact)] in the dream world and end the dream happily.

I added points to [Impact (Strong Impact)] a second time, and developed an [Impact (Full Force Impact)] in the dream world, and it still ended happily.

But in fact, adding points twice is still not as good as the [Impact (Charged Power Attack)] developed by the protagonist for the first time.

And the "return to nature" that the protagonist wants to achieve by adding points for the second time is a realm comparable to that of characters like Bodhidharma, Dugu Qiubai, and Dugu Qiubai. Can it be achieved by adding points twice?

And you have to know that characters like Bodhidharma and Dugu Qiubai grew up by traveling in the real world. The dream world where the protagonist lives is essentially an open small dark room.

Do you think that the so-called "return to nature" can be forced out by staying in a small dark room for decades?

This was originally an impossible thing, but the protagonist felt extremely lost and had an extremely strong sense of frustration. Well, it was old Versailles...
