EBE Chapter 103 A Close Call
Chapter 103 A Close Call
With such a small area, the only way out is to crawl out!
"Get out of there quickly!"
"Hurry, hurry, hurry!!"
The group finally managed to emerge from the narrow membrane of light.
At this moment, the outside world was still filled with sandstorms.
"Ha ha!!"
Anyway, it's better than dying in the secret realm.
It was too hot there.
If we stay any longer, we'll be steamed alive.
"Come out, Magneto!"
"Look at where we are now."
Magneto remained silent, simply releasing electromagnetic waves.
"..."
"Looks like we were lucky and skipped the cave directly."
"What kind of underground cave?"
Ye Kai asked.
"It's nothing, you wouldn't want to know about that place."
"Alright, let's keep going!"
The four continued flying at a steady pace.
Although we encountered other wild Pokémon, we escaped unharmed none of them.
Two full hours later.
The desert was finally left behind, and Ye Kai and the others saw the familiar scenery again.
A group of people holding signs were there to guide tourists.
"For just 8, I guarantee you'll be out of the Howling Desert in 3 days!"
"A local from Yucheng, safe and reliable! A 10-year veteran..."
Finally out of this godforsaken place!
Ye Kai shook the sand off his body.
Good heavens, it actually managed to shake off a pound!
But if we can get out safely, what more could we ask for?
"Alright everyone, once we get here, we can get on the highway and head towards Su City."
"Check if anything is missing; we can still talk about it now..."
The three of them checked it.
"Holy crap, my balls!"
"Here, I'm always forgetting things."
The canned incubator somehow ended up in Zhao Qian's hands.
"You gave it to me yourself when we were drilling the hole, have you forgotten?"
"It's good that it wasn't lost..."
And so, everyone waved goodbye to Yushu.
Three minutes later...
"No, how did you get here?"
Her goat, carrying her on a vine whip, galloped wildly on the highway.
"I still need to go to the Pokémon Center to replenish my supplies. The Pokémon also need to rest. Do you really think I'm made of iron?"
The fiery horse and its goat mount continued forward for more than half an hour.
Finally, we saw a service area.
"Alright, goodbye everyone."
Yushu has truly left this time.
The desert journey, which should have taken 3 days, was completed in less than 2 days.
Ye Kai and the others handed the Poké Ball to the nurse and then each went to their own room.
Rooms here are extremely difficult to book.
Even Ye Kai, who had four small badges, was only assigned a room of about 70 square meters.
However, it has all the necessary facilities.
The room Zhao Qian led him to was even smaller.
The three of them squeezed together to take a shower with Ye Kai.
He was speechless.
The only option was for the two of them to take a shower first before returning to their own rooms.
The journey through the desert was incredibly grueling.
Although it's broad daylight, I'm a bit tired after not sleeping for more than 24 hours.
The key issue is that I still can't fall asleep, so I can only meditate.
One day later.
The three were fully prepared and ready to go, and the elf had also recovered to its best condition.
This time, I ran the rest of the route in one go.
The most tiring thing is to keep walking and stopping.
Two full hours later.
Lincheng, Sucheng.
Rock-type gym.
This building is enormous...
No, it shouldn't be called a building; it was carved out of the mountain.
It's just a big cave!
"Everyone, you're here to challenge the gym, right?"
"Let's register first."
Both Ye Kai and Zhao Qian registered this time.
Because it was the weekend, the dojo was closed, and there were long queues and other issues.
The two will have to challenge the gym in the morning of five days from now.
The only option is to leave the gym and stay at the nearby Pokémon Center.
This time, we finally got a decent room.
It's 140 square meters, with mahogany floors, and you can see the beautiful scenery of the mountains behind the house when you open the window.
Ye Kai didn't even eat dinner before going to bed.
I'm exhausted, but there's nothing I can do about it.
He didn't wake up until 5 a.m. the next day.
I checked my phone, and wow!
Now that we're awake, we need to make arrangements for the future.
He currently has the following Pokémon: Weezing, Crobat, Nidoking, Salamence, Nidoran, Goat, Slowbro, two Oddish, and a Sneasel egg.
There are exactly 10 Pokémon.
High-level spirits should naturally be brought along.
After all, when traveling, you rely on them to keep you safe in the wild.
But the second-tier Pokémon also need to improve their strength.
I played on my phone for a bit, washed up, and then had breakfast.
Time flew by and it was already 7:30.
"Young Master Kai, you're over here."
"..."
As soon as he stepped out of the Pokémon Center, he saw Butler Wang.
Ye Kai didn't believe it was a coincidence.
How exactly did they know their location?
These days, Ye Kai frequently receives messages from Ye Rong, that old man.
He even knew how many gyms he had defeated.
He ignored Old Deng.
He didn't like the feeling of being watched.
He speculated that the problem was most likely with the goat he was riding.
"The master is very concerned about you and asked me to bring these over."
Butler Wang took out an item from his spatial backpack.
A prop resembling a construction safety helmet, covered with hard rock spikes.
It's a convex helmet.
In the game, when a Pokémon carrying this item is attacked by a contact move, the attacker loses 1-6 of its maximum HP.
In this world, however, it has become about counterattacking a small amount of damage.
They mean roughly the same thing.
This is practically the Elf version of Thornmail!
It's good stuff!
Ye Kai didn't stand on ceremony; he took the props and stuffed them into his spatial backpack.
“There is also some financial assistance.”
"Ding!"
He received a transfer of 600 million yuan directly.
"Butler Wang, I have a question for you."
"Young Master Kai, please speak."
How did you know I was here?
"..."
Ye Kai's question was too sharp for him to answer.
Seeing that Butler Wang could not answer the question.
"...Then let me change the subject."
"I'm going to sell this goat mount and buy a new one."
He was expressionless, and every word he uttered hit the nail on the head.
"No, no, no, young master, you've already defeated five dojos in just a month or so. You're sure to have a bright future. The master is very concerned..."
"Since you're traveling, a mount spirit is essential. How about I ask the master first..."
He remained silent.
Seeing this, Butler Wang quickly dialed Ye Rong's number.
"Master, it's like this, Young Master Kai, he..."
The call was very brief, lasting less than a minute.
"The master's meaning is very simple. If you, Young Master Kai, do not like this goat mount, you don't have to sell it. You can buy a new one."
"This is the budget for buying a new mount..."
"Ding!"
Ye Kai received another 300 million yuan in funding.
At this point, he has both face and substance.
He stopped keeping a straight face.
It's time to take the steps back.
After exchanging a few more casual words, the two prepared to leave.
"Oh, by the way, how's Ye Xuan doing lately?"
“…Young Master Xuan, sigh.”
"What happened?"
