Chapter 11 The first challenge in the Apple Forest
"This is the incredible maze we will explore in this extracurricular activity. The maze is called Apple Forest. It has five floors. Although there are dangerous Pokémon during it, it should not be a threat to you."
The domineering panda said to Yao Ling and others: "Then next, please form your own teams. There are a total of fifteen students in our class, so please form a group of five, making a total of three groups. Do you understand?"
"Understood!" The other Pokémon in the school responded and quickly started a heated discussion.
As for Yaoling, Yaoling came directly to Domineering Panda and said, "Teacher Domineering Panda, I think it's okay to form a group by myself?"
"Yao Ling, what are you talking about?" Obviously, the domineering panda did not agree: "I don't know what you think, anyway, I will never agree to your request."
The domineering panda scolded: "Exploring the incredible maze is one of the most dangerous industries in the world, because in addition to dangerous Pokémon, there are also dangerous traps and various strange props."
"If you don't have the help of your teammates, once you encounter a dangerous trap or are trapped by a strange prop, what should you do? I don't need to say more about what will happen to you."
Having said that, the domineering panda pushed Yao Ling and said: "In short, if you want to explore the incredible maze, the expedition team must have at least two members. So it is completely unrealistic to go alone. Once you encounter danger, no one can save you."
[Wow, that sounds really dangerous. It looks like you, the host, can only join them to form a five-person team]
"Haha, although that's true, if I team up with them, can they really help me instead of holding me back?" Yaoling was forced to join one of the teams.
As the members of the three teams were assigned, Domineering Panda nodded and said: "Everyone, I placed a treasure on the fifth floor of the Apple Forest. Whoever can find the treasure will be the champion of this extracurricular activity!"
"Oh! Champion!" Everyone became excited when they heard the word champion.
As for what the treasure is, no one cares. They only care about whether they are the champion.
"Then, this is the expedition set, which contains a map of the incredible maze and a backpack for storing props. Please bring the expedition set with you, captains, and start setting off."
After the domineering panda finished speaking, everyone became excited. After all, they were about to go to the incredible maze to explore.
But when everyone really came to the entrance of the incredible maze, others who said they were not afraid must be lying. Yao Ling even saw one of his teammates' legs starting to tremble.
"Hmph, cowards, let's set off first! Just wait here for us to find the treasure and come back!" The naughty panda and his teammates entered the maze first.
"Well, let's, let's go too!" In another team, the little fire monkey came out and encouraged his teammates to move forward. Although the teammates of the little fire monkey were generally timid, with the encouragement of the little fire monkey, they followed the little fire monkey towards the maze.
"Well, as for our team..." Yao Ling looked back at his team.
The remaining four teammates of his team are Xinye Meow, Fire Spot Meow, Pikachu, and Eevee.
The person whose legs were shaking just now was none other than Pikachu, because the other three teammates all walked on four legs and there was no such thing as legs.
"Yao, Yaoling! Please be the captain!" Ibrahimovic stuck out half of his head and said to Yaoling.
"Yes, yes! Please Yaoling!" After hearing Ibrahimovic's suggestion, the other three teammates also agreed.
[Wow, it looks like you are going to be in trouble next]
"Shut up Jiujiu, I also know that I will be in trouble next. If possible, I want to change the team. How can I save my four teammates if they are so cowardly?"
Yao Ling pinched his eyebrows and said: "Since you want me to be your captain, then I have to reluctantly become your captain. However, since I am the captain, do you have to obey the captain's orders?"
"Huh? You should obey the captain's orders. Well, what do you want to do, captain?" Pikachu sensed something was wrong.
Yao Ling just smiled faintly: "It's nothing, everyone just obey my instructions, one or two steps! Let's move towards the maze!"
Under Yao Ling's command and leadership, Yao Ling and his party walked straight into the maze. After entering the incredible maze, Yao Ling looked back and found that the entrance when the group entered had disappeared, replaced by a tall wall covered with thorns and flowers.
"Is this the incredible maze? It's really amazing." Yao Ling looked around the maze. There were two exits in the maze they were in.
"Meow! Fire Spot Meow, look! There are so many fallen leaves here!" Unlike Yao Ling, after entering the incredible maze, Yao Ling's four teammates suddenly changed from fear to joy.
"Wait a minute, Xinye Miao, don't run around, what if there is danger there?" Fire Spot Miao ran towards Xinye Miao, who was rolling in the fallen leaves.
But Xinye Miao didn't seem to care: "It's so beautiful here, how can there be danger? And the domineering panda teacher also said that there is nothing threatening here, so don't be afraid."
It was clear that they were still scared before the entrance of the Mysterious Maze just now, but now the two of them were as happy as having released their natural instincts.
"Look! What a big apple!" On the other side, Pikachu looked at an apple growing on a dead tree and began to salivate.
That apple was the largest he had ever seen. It exuded an intoxicating aroma and made people salivate just by smelling it.
"This apple must be delicious!"
With this idea in mind, Pikachu looked around. After finding a suitable stone, Pikachu smashed the apple without hesitation.
"Pikachu! What are you doing!" After seeing Pikachu throwing rocks and hitting apples, Yaolin scolded him.
"Eh? What's wrong, captain, is there anything wrong with smashing apples?" After seeing Yao Ling's appearance, Ibrahimovic was a little confused.
Yao Ling stared at the apple on the dead tree and asked word by word: "Do you have any common sense! Will apples grow on dead trees!? The trees are dead! How can there be nutrients to support this apple! "
"Eh? That means?" Pikachu and Eevee looked back at the apple on the tree, and saw two eyes suddenly popping up on the apple.
"That's not an apple at all, it's a Pokémon. It's a kind of Pokémon called Fruit Gnawer! Their appearance is very similar to apples. When they encounter natural enemies or sleep, they will disguise themselves as apples. Protect yourself like this!"
After Yao Ling finished speaking, the fruit-gnawing insect on the dead tree fell heavily to the ground: "Tsk, I was just taking a nap, who threw the stone to wake me up!!!"
