HCB Chapter 437 Lobbying
Chapter 437 Lobbying
How fast Latios flies!
High in the air, Rebecca's hair stood on end.
The surrounding scenery blurred, rushed past, and distorted...
[This sprite's speed is comparable to mine.]
She ignored Mewtwo's boasting.
She repeatedly looked through the map that the old man Hachi had given her.
This map is quite unusual.
If it's just a regular Hoenn map, you can buy it at any shop.
The old man, Hachi, also marked the coordinates on the map with handwritten notes.
Among them are many unnamed islands.
For example, the "Phantom Island" that only appears on Waterway 130!
Ye Kai in his previous life in the game.
I have never been to this famous phantom island.
All he knew was that...
The probability of encountering this island is even lower than encountering a Shiny Pokémon!
Furthermore, the only wild Pokémon you can encounter on the island is Little Woko.
There is also a rare tree fruit.
This is also why in childhood.
Owning a Milotic is so exciting.
Because I want to maximize my beauty score.
This is too difficult!!
Things are rare.
That's just how people are.
The things we can't have are always the best!
Ok?
What on earth is that unknown island 17 nautical miles away on the edge of the map?
Following the clues left by Hatch.
He explained.
That's far from Hoenn's homeland.
It is located on the outer edge of the Hoenn region.
A small island in an unknown sea.
The island has beautiful scenery and a spring-like climate all year round.
The place was filled with tall grass, but there were no other elves.
I've only ever seen one that's unusually long... a tail?!
Panoramic view of the border island
It's a dream!!!
"Oh!"
We've arrived.
Latios sidestepped and threw her to the ground.
"Can't you be a little gentler?"
Don't take advantage of me.
Latios retorted in a human-like manner.
It understands everything, it just doesn't want to say it.
The existence of a "dreamlike" border island is quite intriguing.
But no matter what.
Getting back to the real world is the most important thing!!
With this in mind.
Rebecca enters Route 107, on the southern reef.
It's a mess here, with only a hole about the size of a dog hole.
Latios gestured for her to quickly climb inside.
You'll encounter rare Pokémon from outside the Hoenn region.
She was skeptical, but had no choice but to climb in.
They really went to great lengths to see the unknown totem.
"Gem starfish!"
In the pitch-black, narrow cave.
The gem starfish flashed its light.
It was quite damp here, and the cave walls were covered with moss.
Rebecca nearly fell several times.
Fortunately, she also has superpowers, such as the ability to stay airborne.
I felt a familiar power.
"What do you mean?"
[Do you remember the "Ascana Ruins" on the seventh island in the Seven Islands?]
Sure enough, there are unknown totems here too!
But things backfired.
More than 20 minutes passed.
Rebecca searched high and low, but only found two elves.
Defeat them easily, then capture them.
One of them is an Ice Ghost Guardian.
The other one is Steelix.
In fact, this cave was dug out by the giant steel snake.
These Pokémon are indeed not found in the Hoenn region.
But it is far from being an unknown totem.
They are practically unrelated.
Tsk!
She smacked her lips.
Is it possible we can never go back?!
Are we destined to be trapped and die in this world?!
Don't panic.
There are twenty or thirty more similar phantom locations.
At worst, we can just go and find them one by one!
Just then.
That power has returned.
"What exactly are you talking about?"
She was somewhat upset.
I'm fed up with the way Mewtwo Riddler talks.
In the Ultra Balls used to capture Glalie and Steelix,
Suddenly, several dark creatures emerged, as if they had been "folded" into another dimension.
They have no volume.
G, L, A…, L, I, E…
It is an unknown totem with exactly 6 letters.
Inside the ball that holds the giant steel snake.
S, T, E,…E, L, I, X…
It has exactly 7 letters.
"babble!!"
"Cough!!!"
The eerie echo filled her mind once again.
[Hey, something's off about you.]
"Cha ah!"
She could no longer hear the elves' concern.
as far as the eye can see.
Everything except herself.
The moment they saw the unknown totem, they all turned into characters.
These indescribable, eerie characters stared at her with wide eyes.
Rebecca looked at her own body.
Even its hands, feet, clothes, and tail... everything is made up of unknown totems.
"Ahhh!!"
This terrifying feeling caused her to scream wildly.
Amidst the countless unknown totems swirling in the sky, several flew out and came before her.
R, E, B, E...C, C, A,?
What do you mean?
These letters are spelled together.
Isn't that her name, Rebecca?
Then all these unknown totems surged into her body.
……
……
"Gurgle..."
"Well!!"
This time, Ye Kai opened his eyes completely.
The first thing he saw.
It is the head of the Messiah.
She just stared at him, face to face.
Don't scare me, big sister.
Ye Kai pushed her head away, activated his superpowers to support himself, and floated upwards.
"drop!!"
"Soaking complete!"
The water level inside the soaking facility began to drop rapidly, accompanied by an electronic sound.
"Oh!"
"Squeak, squeak!"
"Bang!!"
He quickly unscrewed the top of the facility, revealing a sealing cap weighing several tons.
"Boom!!!"
Just came out.
To welcome Ye Kai.
It's like the heavy blow of piling up stones!
Now, here's what this big guy is doing.
In his eyes.
It's no different from "left hand, right hand, one slow motion".
Ye Kai quickly teleported out of the secret realm.
This time, he was essentially soaked 1.5 times.
After all, he woke up in the middle of the night.
I don't know if it's a blessing or a curse.
But this level 93 all-attribute pressure is real!!
Pressure level 90 and above.
Getting to the next grade is incredibly difficult!
What's more, it suddenly jumped 3 levels!
When Ye Kai walked out of the secret realm.
Inside the facilities of District 9.
The representative of the "Longxia Biological Private Army" responsible for guarding the area was also taken aback.
It wasn't just him.
They guarded the exit of Ye Kai's secret realm.
There are also adjutants for the three units: "Ghost Lion," "Greedy Wolf," and "Xiao Wangsun."
You Shi and Tan Lang are armed forces belonging to Chu Feng and Hong Zhong.
That goes without saying.
However, "Xiao Wangsun" is a rather special organization.
They have only 10 members.
He directly obeys the orders of Sun Wanzhong, the "champion" himself.
These members of "Xiao Wangsun" can be said to be...
They are all top-notch experts!
Everyone possesses combat power that places them in the top tier below the Heavenly King!
Ha, isn't this one of the other fanfictions Ye Kai read in his previous life?
A typical "quasi-King of Pop"?
He had seen the League's Royal Guards before.
To a large extent, these people are also unreliable.
They were like imperial bodyguards in ancient times.
These people may not be martial arts masters, but they must have some connection to the upper echelons...
But these 10 people are very different.
Their actual strength is truly genuine!
They were all Sun Wanzhong's last disciples.
It comes from tens of thousands of orphans around the world.
Selected from the best of the best!
There were also talented and extraordinary people recruited from various parts of society.
In short, these people definitely did not rise to their positions through connections.
Ye Kai knows these things.
Actually, it was all "Shang" who told him.
Lin Shun was once a member of this "Xiao Wangsun", codenamed "Fu Guang".
All 10 members will be given names by Sun Wanzhong himself.
As long as you are on duty.
So abandon your real name and use that code name instead.
But the mystery lies in the fact that no one outside knows which 10 people are the fixed group.
There are legends about Chu Feng, Hong Zhong...
There's also the deceased Qi Lian and Qin Ge.
Even Hong Sheng, who betrayed them...
These people have all served as one of the 10.
"So what do all these code names mean?"
"Brother Ye, there's no need to overthink it. It's just an elegant term used by Chinese literati to show off their literary skills."
The term "王孙" (Wangsun) simply means monkey.
Moreover, Sun Wanzhong himself also shares the surname Sun.
The reason he gave his personal guards such names was...
It implies that they are lawless, dare to confront authority without fear, and are arrogant and domineering.
After all, it's next to which BOSS?
Isn't it just a "rabid dog" on a leash?
Take, for example, the Liu family's uprising at Mangdang Mountain.
He founded the entire Great Khanate.
Back then, he had a valiant general named Fan Kuai by his side.
There was also a guy with big ears who twisted straw ropes and wove straw sandals.
Isn't there a big guy next to me who says, "Me too"?
Now let's look at the Cao family.
Wasn't the person who survived the night raid back then thanks to that "invincible foot soldier" Awei?
Looking at Ye Kai himself...
This is why he had such high hopes for Nidoking before.
Elves or humans, it doesn't matter.
A mad dog of unparalleled madness.
It has always been the ultimate pursuit of the strong!
As the saying goes, "A dog is hard to find!"
See, it's biting you!
Why don't you bite me?!
Sun Wanzhong has unique tastes; one mad dog is not enough for him, he wants ten!
Let's look back at the present.
That's why all these people are here guarding Ye Kai.
Without him.
