EBE Chapter 231 A Brief Respite (1)
Chapter 231 A Brief Respite (1)
Four hours later.
Ye Kai finally arrived at the temporary safe zone, "Mangshan Fortress".
During this special period, he couldn't trust anyone.
So before entering the League's territory, he restored all his Pokémon to their best condition, ready to fight at any time!
Ye Kai spent more than an hour on this.
Severe weather has a significant impact on people.
He endured the torment of being soaked in the rain and scorching sun.
This is not an ordinary natural weather change.
The two extraordinary characteristics, "Origin Sea" and "Ending Earth," contain astonishing water and fire elemental powers.
If an ordinary person were exposed to such an environment, they probably wouldn't last long before losing consciousness and then dying!
It's fortunate that he had already undergone gene therapy and soaking, and had also had destructive genes implanted.
Ye Kai is now in a sorry state.
He was soaked in sweat and had a high fever, but he was conscious.
Fortunately, the worst-case scenario did not occur.
No one attacked him when he entered the fortress.
As expected of an alliance, their strategic vision is unmatched by any other force.
Without saying a word, the medical staff took him into the soaking room to soak first.
This is the alliance's latest technology.
It can restore the trainer's condition without any blind spots.
More importantly...
This treatment method can also save medical staff to the greatest extent.
At this critical juncture, what we lack is manpower.
Some of the technologies were never seen before.
In the face of great disasters, the alliance did not hold back and showed its full strength.
It only took less than half an hour.
He then felt the various energies within his body tending towards balance.
The fire attribute that was previously injected into my body by that fire moth.
There was also the aftershock of that flying and psychic type power.
There's also the intense, yang energy absorbed from the weather, and the gentle, yin energy...
All the hidden damage caused by these residual attributes has been completely restored.
To avoid inspection.
The Moroth's handcrafted premium ball is hidden inside Gengar's belly.
The interior of this spirit is a magical space that is very difficult to discover.
Hidden inside Gengar is not just Morpho's ball.
There are also many things that cannot be brought to light.
This also includes the mosquito coil tadpole, of course.
"Welcome to Mangshan Fortress, Ye Kai, Level 1 Professional Trainer!"
The alliance specifically arranged for staff to liaise with him.
In the area where gyms and Pokémon Centers were destroyed.
The alliance has built military fortresses to serve as semi-permanent command centers.
The overall situation has not changed because of the natural disaster; the alliance still firmly controls the vast majority of the world's population!
"How did you carry out the mandatory tasks assigned before?"
"..."
Ye Kai directed the stinging jellyfish to unfold its layers of tentacles and spit out a corpse wrapped in tarpaulin.
"I want to see him alive or dead."
"I've done my best!"
"..."
The staff members, who had been smiling, froze.
"...Okay, please wait here while I report to my superiors."
This situation has certainly occurred since the alliance was established.
Regardless.
It's much better than abandoning the mission or even defecting from the alliance.
He watched coldly as the staff entered the room next door.
Every brick and tile of this Mangshan Fortress can isolate him from his senses.
You can't even hear any conversation.
We can only take it one step at a time.
At this moment, in the next room.
"What?! Dead?"
"Ha, it's good that he's dead. I was looking for him anyway..."
The man in the suit made a neck-slitting gesture.
"Then, sir, what should be done with Ye Kai?"
"Follow official procedures. If the mission fails, the professional trainer is stripped of all rights..."
The man in the suit was about to continue speaking.
But an old man with a bandage wrapped around his head raised his hand, signaling him to shut up.
"Haha, Grandpa Hong, then you go ahead and tell us..."
"These are turbulent times, the world is in constant flux, and there is a lack of capable leaders at the highest levels."
"This is precisely the time when we need people. If they don't even have this much magnanimity, then none of us should play this game anymore..."
As he spoke, Hongzhong took a drag of his cigarette and slowly exhaled.
He coughed for a moment, then lit a cigarette butt.
"This Ye Kai, he came from the heart of the disaster area, right?"
"Being able to come out of there alive and continue the mission, even if all that comes back is a corpse, is enough to show their identification with the Alliance."
The memory of Ling Yuan'er betraying the alliance was still replaying in Hong Zhong's mind.
She was essentially forced into rebellion.
He has indeed gotten old.
If we continue to suppress these new generation trainers too harshly, as before...
There's a bad feeling in the red.
When the reckoning comes, I'm afraid not a single member of the Hong family will be spared!
In any world, there is a tacit understanding between people that they play by the rules.
Or rather, it's a bottom line.
If this bottom line is crossed, then there is no bottom line at all!
No matter how fierce the fight between trainers is, it will not affect their families.
But in his youth, Hong Zhong once crossed this line.
They did something outrageous.
If someone were to harm his family in the future, he would have nothing to say!
This is the unspoken rule of the game among those in power.
If you do the first day of the month, I'll do the fifteenth!
Who's afraid of who? A tortoise afraid of a hammer?!
You are despicable, but I am even more despicable.
If you're shameless, then I'll have to be even more shameless than you!
Hongzhong has always felt indebted to the Ling family.
Because the Ling family is the direct descendant of the former Water Element Heavenly King family.
Their original surname was Qi.
To avoid being taken advantage of, they had no choice but to cut their losses and survive.
They even changed their surname!
But those old guys still didn't let her go.
Hongzhong didn't want his family to end up like that; that would be absolutely terrible.
Ye Kai's progress is too fast.
Although much information is not yet available, Hongzhong still has a keen eye for people.
Ye Kai is probably going to be an extraordinary person.
He's just putting on an act in everything he does.
Inside is a bottomless void; no amount of good deeds can fill this person's heart!
Such a person is best kept by one of your own.
If they are forced to rebel, the consequences will be quite serious!
Hong Zhong had contact with the Ye family in his early years.
Ye Xuan's A-grade Burning Insect was given away by him personally.
Take Ye Kai's father, Ye Rong, for example.
In his early years, he was just an unknown street vendor.
Ye Rong had sold newspapers and fruit... and his education level was not high.
Nothing I do works out.
Later, he fell on hard times and ended up collecting garbage.
No one knows who gave them the idea, but they started extracting gold from mud and made a fortune!
That's exactly what that saying means.
No one gets rich without unexpected wealth.
Horses won't get fat without night grass!
Such a person.
Starting his first marriage at the age of 34 allows him to fully exploit his ex-wife's family resources before quickly moving on to his next marriage!
His status jumped three levels in just two years!
In his early years, all his relatives and friends followed his lead.
Those who opposed him all became his friends...
On doing business.
He was almost the most typical businessman Hong Zhong had ever seen.
The Ye family is one of the biggest front men for the Hong family.
Ye Kai is the son of this kind of person!
That's ruthless.
They are all ruthless people!
They're all formidable!
Then look at your good-for-nothing son.
If it weren't for his son's incompetence.
How could he place his hopes on his granddaughter Honglian, who is from a different generation?
Thinking about this, he couldn't help but feel a headache coming on.
The comfort that nicotine brought him was not of much use.
"...How should we arrange it?"
"So, what's the plan for the next step?"
The man in the suit asked the question twice.
Only then did Hongzhong snap out of her thoughts and back to reality.
"Consider his task completed, but only half of the points reward will be given to him. He will receive the remaining points when he completes the next mandatory task in six months."
"That's enough for now. I'm tired, I'm going to rest."
The old man put down his crossed legs on the table, stuck the cigarette butt into the ashtray, and slowly left the room.
As the fire-type king left the room.
The man in the suit immediately put on a different face.
"You heard that too, right? Do as this official says!"
"Yes."
On Ye Kai's side.
He thought a lot during the time he waited.
If the alliance insists on declaring his mission a failure.
He has considered leaving the alliance and figuring out how to continue becoming stronger.
The key lies in the subsequent "soaking".
This kind of modification to the human body will gradually turn people into elves.
This is probably what the mosquito coil tadpole was referring to as the "elf people" in Project Alpha.
Ye Kai calls this humanoid Pokémon "Pokémon".
Although the lifespan of a treasure person is no different from that of an ordinary person, that is all it can do.
The Pokémon has extremely strong resistance to attacks from Pokémon moves!
And they possess immense strength.
Just like Ash Ketchum in the original anime.
"Super Newcomer" and "Super Jade Washer" are both terms used to tease them.
If I'm not mistaken.
To swap bodies with an elf, becoming a "treasure person" is the first and most important step!
About these secrets.
We'll use every trick in the book to extract the secret from this mosquito coil tadpole!
Just as he was thinking about this, he received a notification.
The task was mandatory, so he was considered to have completed it.
As for the rewards...
Getting only half the points is no longer the main point.
At least their jobs in the league are safe.
The wait was far too long, and Ye Kai couldn't help but suspect that something "twist" had happened.
After leaving the small room, he quickly received his own room key.
The room I was assigned this time was only 40 square meters.
Compared to usual, it's just a cubicle.
Apart from the bed, everything else is negligible.
Fortunately, the rooms for Pokémon battle training are free to use.
Of course, it's only 2 hours a day.
Staying here is not a long-term solution; it can only serve as a temporary supply point.
Ye Kai also inquired about the prices here.
Everything can only be purchased with points.
Alliance Coins are worthless here!
OK OK.
This damn place is even more "Rocket Team" than "Rocket Team"!
The only humanitarian concern.
They provide you with three meals a day and accommodation, and they won't force you to work.
Perfect for lazy bums who just want to coast through life.
He couldn't stay there a second longer!
