PDLP Chapter 63 9 Tianshan Trip (1)
Chapter 63 9 Tianshan Trip (1)
Little did they know that the trainer was just boasting about his Pokémon.
There's no substantial news.
Ye Kai got a general idea.
It's just a special channel, a monopolized elf.
Plurling is like his gas bomb, the stinky slime in the garbage dump, or a dust mountain—a kind of sprite.
It is not something that ordinary people can access.
Only industries involved in automobile manufacturing can encounter this.
He wasn't very interested in this guy.
After everyone gathered, they set off again.
This time, we only drove for less than an hour before getting off the highway.
Riding their goat and flaming horse, the three of them arrived at their destination.
The entire steel-themed dojo in Yangcheng looks like a giant Rubik's Cube!
"Battle Against the Rubik's Cube!"
"I'd only heard about it before, I never imagined it would be this spectacular!"
This isn't just a Steel-type gym.
It's also a well-known battleground similar to a "battle castle" or "battle lair"!
The only Pokémon Center in Yangcheng is also within 200 meters.
This Elf Center is far larger than the one in Lotus City.
Wow, it's huge!!
Anyway, let's go take a look.
"Due to an emergency mission issued by the League, the Yangcheng Steel-type Gym is temporarily closed. Please contact us for details..."
Zhao Qian stepped forward, saw the red notice, and read it aloud.
"What the heck?! Did we come all this way for nothing?!"
"Don't rush."
Ye Kai remained calm.
Moreover, even when the dojo is not open, there are staff members on duty.
"Everyone, if you're here to challenge the gym, please wait patiently."
"You're all so young, you could try your luck at the Jiutianshan Nature Reserve."
After making some inquiries, they learned from the gatekeeper that they really did have to make the trip.
"How to say?"
Zhao Qian and his companion were very curious.
"The museum owner is simply too busy with the exploration mission he recently took on, which has reached a critical stage."
"How about we challenge the Psychic-type gym in Amagi City first?"
Wang Xiaoting suggested.
After all, Lake City has two dojos.
"No, let's go directly to Master Xia."
Ye Kai shared his thoughts.
In his past life, whether he was playing video games, watching anime, or reading comics...
In most of them, the dojo master is not present.
These are the people you should avoid helping to solve their problems.
They just left the story stuck there!
However, this is the real world, so it's naturally not that illogical.
But since we're already here, we definitely have to go find the gym leader.
"The Jiutianshan mining area is not far from here."
With their goal clearly defined, the three of them once again mounted their spirit mounts and headed towards Mount Jiutian.
Half an hour later.
"Wow!!"
"So big, so tall!"
The Jiutian Mountain before us is a colossal mountain composed of rock and iron.
Overall, it appears to be a mixture of black and brown.
The vegetation is quite sparse, with only a small amount of mosses covering the mountain surface.
This is the kind of Yamaha Kai I've never seen before, and it's even more impossible for me to have seen it in my previous life.
Although no exclamation was uttered.
But he was also stunned by the imposing presence of Mount Jiutian.
This entire mountainous area covers more than 10,000 acres; where are we supposed to find the owner?
"Da da da...!"
At that moment, three helicopters roared overhead.
The aircraft features a prominent Alliance logo.
Ye Kai and the others followed the direction the helicopter had taken for a while.
Two minutes later, a grayish-blue steel behemoth rapidly approached.
"Meh!!"
Its body was like an iron disc, its thick iron arms crawled like a spider, and it had a huge X-shaped iron bar on its face. Its crimson eyes stared at Ye Kai and the other two.
It's a Metagross!!
This is a pseudo-legendary, one of the few pseudo-legendary that is not a dragon-type.
"The area ahead is the Jiutianshan mining area. Unauthorized personnel are not permitted to enter."
"Ok?"
"You must be Ye Kai. I've heard other dojo owners mention you."
The trainer sitting on Metagross's head is none other than Xia Xuanfeng.
He was wearing a dark gray short-sleeved shirt, seemingly unfazed by the cold, his muscles bulging, exuding strength and power.
The dojo master's photo is publicly available.
Ye Kai and the others had already seen it countless times.
"Gym Leader, when will the gym open?"
"Young man, don't be impatient."
"My alliance missions in the Jiutianshan mining area take anywhere from one week to two or three weeks."
"Recently, a batch of ancient fossils were unearthed in the mining area, and they all need to be restored. We're so busy..."
After hearing his explanation, Zhao Qian could no longer hold back.
Shortest possible time: 1 week?
Who can wait that long?
It seemed as if they could see what everyone was thinking.
Xia Xuanfeng introduced one of the rights of the dojo master to Ye Kai and the others.
That means 30 days of paid leave per year.
This holiday excludes weekends and public holidays.
To put it bluntly, even dojo masters need to rest.
Ye Kai immediately became interested when he heard about restoring fossils.
"We'd also like to go into the mining area and see the fossil extraction process up close, is that alright?"
He immediately suggested that he wanted to go to the site to see for himself.
"Please come to the Alliance's headquarters and sit for a while. Let me introduce you to the place."
And so, under the control of Metagross's powerful superpowers, everyone took to the air.
"I never thought it could fly like this?!"
Everyone was amazed.
Metagross is not only carrying Xia Xuanfeng.
It also suspends the three people in the air, making them fly slowly.
Psychic-type Pokémon can usually fly like this.
However, it's definitely faster when there are no passengers.
A few minutes later, everyone landed.
Before us lies an alliance level that resembles a secret realm.
"Welcome to Jiutianshan Nature Reserve."
"Alright, come in and have a look."
The curator led everyone into the residence, which was a museum-like place inside.
Upon entering, one sees various ancient elf skeletons.
There are also a large number of fossils.
"This is... a fossil pterosaur!?"
"And a sickle helmet!"
Ye Kai let the other two discuss it while he watched silently.
"Alright, those fossils are precious, but they can't be restored. They can only be used as specimens for exhibition."
"Because fossils are easily damaged during the mining process."
“You can’t be of much help here, and unrelated people are prohibited from entering the mining area.”
"However, the Jiutian Mountain Nature Reserve is quite large and has many wild Pokémon. You can definitely catch some here."
Xia Xuanfeng blocked everyone's idea of entering the mining area on one hand, and on the other hand, he guided everyone to catch elves.
"Remember, you can only catch one at a time; that's the league's rule."
Upon hearing what Master Xia said, Ye Kai and the others immediately became interested.
Such a large rocky iron mountain must be home to a large number of elves.
Who knows, there might even be a pseudo-legendary offspring like Iron Dumbbell?!
Noticing the intense gazes of the crowd, who were fixed intently on Metagross.
"Forget about the iron dumbbells, we already have them."
"However, 50 years ago, the alliance relocated all the populations here to Longmenshan and Yuancishan in Beijing."
"..."
Everyone's hopes were dashed.
"Okay, there are signs in the protected area. Just don't go into the areas that are off-limits."
And so, the group embarked on their adventure.
Clearly, Xia Xuanfeng didn't want them to disturb the mining operations on the other side of the mining area.
After walking for less than two minutes, the scene gradually changed from mountainous terrain to dense forest...
There's a sign every 10-20 meters, just in case people get lost.
Let's just wander around in the surrounding forest.
Following the signs, the group gradually approached an area where entry was prohibited.
Suddenly, a wild horned rhinoceros burst through the ground and charged straight at the group!
This horned rhinoceros came on strong.
Looks like he's at a pretty high level!
"Scizor, use Bullet Punch!"
"Nidoking, Flamethrower!"
The crowd immediately launched a siege on it!
The rhinoceros with the horned horn simply unleashed an earthquake!
For a time, the score remained evenly matched.
It chose to attack Wang Xiaoting, who was closest to it.
Not good!
Just then, a flash of red light appeared.
A huge figure automatically shot out of the Poké Ball.
Wang Xiaoting also possesses incredible strength!
This four-armed tyrant is 2.2 meters long, clearly indicating that it is of a high level.
It tripped the giant beast with one kick!
Kicking down is a move that is more effective against heavier opponents!
Fighting-type moves are twice as effective against Rhinoceros Horn.
It was directly and severely damaged!
The rhinoceros was still not convinced, its eyes flashing with ferocity as it unleashed a deadly horn drill!
Something unexpected happened.
This monstrous creature actually spewed flames, which struck the charging rhinoceros directly.
Even the last trace of blood was worn away.
"Super Strength can actually spew flames?!"
That's unheard of, it's outrageous.
This creature possessed incredible strength, was tall, and had bulging muscles.
He surveyed the surroundings with a kind expression, then shielded Wang Xiaoting behind him.
This monster seems to have terrifying strength!
"Ugh!!"
The rhinoceros with the horned horn was so badly beaten that it saw stars.
"This Rhinoceros is a very strong Pokémon, shouldn't we catch it?"
