Chapter 130 Riding Milton, a Grand Escape
The news of Sinnoh Champion Cynthia's arrival in East Asia was already widely known, and many newspapers and businesses had devised a series of plans to contact the Sinnoh Champion for some business deals or interviews.
But there won't be any blind paparazzi sneaking around to spy on the champion's life, unless he's confident he can withstand the ultimate impact of Mega Garchomp.
Anyway, Cynthia is in the Eastern Empire, so there's no rush.
Except for one situation: when a truly explosive exclusive news story suddenly appears.
For example, the Sinnoh champion is dating a man.
With whom?
Anyway, it's not you and me.
In this age of information overload, no one cares about the truth; only traffic matters, which trumps everything else.
Thus, Rotom's news struck the nerves of newspaper workers like a flare gun fired by a referee at an athletics race.
Wanlong leaned out of the window and saw countless green Rotom drones with four propellers flying out of the building like mosquitoes at dusk in summer, skimming over the city and heading towards the museum.
"This is going to be interesting."
[Accompany Cynthia to the museum, reward 10000 Action Points]
A visit to a museum earns you 10,000 points—is that the true value of a champion?
As Wei Xin walked out of the museum side by side with Cynthia, he heard a system notification. He looked away slightly and realized that he had completed another ten-pull, although most of the points this time were earned with the help of Hunter J.
Unfortunately, he could never repay such a great kindness in his lifetime, even though he had already given her a set of silver bracelets.
Or perhaps this is a tremendous reward? Offering himself in return is simply giving Hunter J to the country.
From now on, I'll bring gifts to pay my respects to her during holidays. She's all alone and quite pitiful; even her Pokémon got its personality remodeled.
He served the country.
"It's getting late. How are you planning to get back? By Togekiss or Garchomp?" Wei Xin released Milton as they reached the roadside, mounted it, and put on his helmet.
"There's air traffic control in Shanghai." Cynthia shook her head. Although as a champion, she might occasionally accidentally run into some harmless rules that Donghuang wouldn't mind, it was still foreign territory after all, and she wanted to avoid trouble.
Cynthia's gaze fell on Wei Xin, on the Millerton motorcycle that had transformed into it: "Could I borrow your Millerton for a ride? I'll return it to you when I get home."
Cynthia was referring to sending Milton's Poké Ball to the Pokémon Center after returning home. In reality, she wanted to ride Milton for a while from the moment she first saw it.
"Ah, no way." Wei Xin firmly refused. It wasn't that he didn't trust Cynthia's character, but he was worried that there might be trouble such as a car crash or collision later.
"A man won't hand over his car to anyone else, not even a friend, no matter how good a friend is."
"Alright." Cynthia sighed, then heard a noisy buzzing sound from the sky. She turned her head and saw dozens of Rotom flying in the sky.
Was it the professor who arranged the aerial photography team? Wei Xin remembered that the Bright Stone was supposed to be transported today, but then realized something was wrong.
These aerial photographs show Rotom's flight targets.
In Wei Xin's view, the Rotom drone, flying in a straight line in space, suddenly turned and dove towards the ground after reaching the museum. The direction of the dive was...
What's going on? It looks like they're coming for me?
The Sinnoh League is here to arrest me?
I'm in! I haven't even done anything yet.
Rotom, who was standing nearby, was shocked. He quickly pulled out a lady's helmet from somewhere and threw it into Cynthia's arms. He then shouted in front of the two of them, "It's terrible! My lord and Lady Cynthia, your actions today have been photographed and posted online. Now there are rumors about you all over the internet. Rotom is here to find evidence."
Then it floated behind Cynthia and pushed her into Wei Xin's back seat.
"Rumors?" Cynthia asked, puzzled. "Isn't it enough to just clarify them?"
Rotom: "Ms. Cynthia, you don't know this, there's an old saying in the East: 'It takes only a mouth to spread rumors, but it takes a lot of legwork to refute them.' They don't care how many bowls of noodles you ate, let alone that you had a meal."
"This kind of thing will only get worse if you try to explain it. You two should hurry up and ride Milton away to lay low for a while."
"Oh no!" Wei Xin's heart skipped a beat. He knew the power of journalism. He looked down and asked the Millerton beneath him, "Can you carry two people?"
"Wow~" Milerton nodded.
Who do you think I am? I said, get in.
But Snorlax won't work, and anything heavier than Snorlax won't work either.
"Miss Cynthia, things happened suddenly, let me take you home first," Wei Xin said. There are no restrictions on taking photos in the city, and even if the photos are published, it will be difficult to deal with. It's better to take her home. If the other party is trespassing, they can expect to receive a lawyer's letter.
Or you can solo offline with the Sinnoh champion.
"Then I'll leave it to you," Cynthia said.
Although she felt that someone was behind this, Wei Xin seemed to be completely unaware of it.
Who cares? It's worth it to be Millerton just once. Cynthia put on her helmet and got into Weixin's back seat.
Wei Xin studied and prepared for this meeting last night, staying up until 2 a.m. Although 2 a.m. is almost like a health regimen for college students, he had already prepared until now, and he couldn't let it end like some of those flops.
Wei Xin quickly pulled up the system panel and opened the card drawing interface.
White Reward 3
[Reference Material: Dream Records Part 1]
[Reference Material: Dream Records II]
Good grief, it's time for this guy to prove his innocence.
That's true. If Fantasy Westward Journey really did have a lot of romantic relationships, there would be a bunch of guys, girls, uncles, and aunts who would turn their lives around.

Blue Reward 4
[Item: Long-haired Troll Hair Growth Tonic (Makes hair grow rapidly with a "duang" sound after use)]
[Item: Song Rage Your Dream (Initial D hit song)]
[Deployed to the vehicle Milerton]
In Millardon's mind, a powerful melody played, and one line in particular was very moving: "I burn your dreams!"
[Reference Material: Ibuki's Beauty Recipes]
[Item Item: High-Energy Plum Candy (N times the energy of a sandwich)]
Is this preserved plum candy of yours even legitimate? And why is the unit of measurement sandwich?
Could it be a prop for Millerton?
Purple Reward 3
[Skill Type: Monster Group Pokémon Massage Technique (Master Level)]
[Skill: Motorcycle Driving (Proficiency Level)]
Wei Xin was overjoyed to see that the system provided the skills he needed.
He's here! He's here! He's driving his AE86 right here!
Just as he was asking for a car, the system gifted him a master-level motorcycle driving skill. Wei Xin felt like he might have been tricked by the system.
Just for the points you just got?
[Skill: Energy Cube Crafting (Proficient Level)]
Gold Reward 1
[Reference Material: Shennong's Classic of Materia Medica, Volume 3]
[The host has been detected to have collected all three volumes of Shennong's Classic of Materia Medica. This has been automatically combined into a red reward: The Complete Guide to Shennong's Classic of Materia Medica.]
There are even red rewards? Wei Xin was startled as images of various plant species, effects, and combinations of their use flashed through his mind. However, the situation was urgent, and he could only wait until he returned to study them further.
"Speaking of which, I've never given a ride to a girl before," Wei Xin chuckled involuntarily, then snapped his helmet shut. "Luckily, Sinnoh's Victory is now riding on my saddle."
"Then I'll leave the reins to you, Mr. Eastern Knight," Cynthia said with a smile. At that moment, Rotom, who had descended from the sky behind them, did not recognize the disguised Cynthia and was still trying to find her.
Rotom landed on Milton's head.
"Rotom, start navigation, set the route," Wei Xin said, not wanting to wait at traffic lights.
"Route planned for you." A dial and a 3D map appeared on Rotom's screen. A red arrow traversed the city, heading towards the suburbs, finally stopping at the private villa that Cattleya had lent to Cynthia. All green lights were visible. "City traffic reminder: The speed limit in the city is 60. Speeding less than 50% over the limit will not be penalized. Finally, have a pleasant drive!"
In the distance, green lights flashed and illuminated.
Wei Xin gripped the handle tightly, and Millerton swung its hind legs, transforming them into two circular jets that flung Cynthia onto Wei Xin's back. Cynthia's hands involuntarily wrapped around Wei Xin's waist, creating a strong push-back sensation.
Amidst the roar of the engine, spark plugs fired sparks, instantly digesting the food in Millerton's stomach and transforming it into pure energy and power.
Under Rotom's aerial gaze, an escape begins!
