Chapter 249 Roger

In the Tian Du Plateau wilderness, inside a cave, Roger had just changed the medicine for Charizard. The two, along with their Pokémon, were resting inside the cave, sheltering from the wind and snow.

Roger sat on the ground, gazing at the swirling snow outside the cave, his mind preoccupied with the matter of the Ancient Sword Leopard.

His first thought was that he had to go back immediately and report the matter of the Elderleaver to the Pokémon Association. If it were anyone else with even a little bit of selfishness, they would definitely have chosen to keep it a secret and look for an opportunity to catch the Elderleaver.

However, Roger was an upright man, and he never considered doing such a thing. Firstly, his character wouldn't allow him to do it, and secondly, his abilities wouldn't permit it.

Compared to how to deal with the ancient sword leopard, he was more worried about the safety of the patrol team. The appearance of a mythical beast in the wilderness was not a good thing for the patrol team, but rather a disaster.

Roger was fortunate that he was the team leader on patrol today; otherwise, anyone else would probably have been killed by poachers and ancient sword leopards.

Especially considering that this Ancient Sword Leopard is so powerful, at least at the champion level, or even at the near-master level.

Thinking of this, Roger took down the wine jug and took a big gulp.

He didn't know if he was lucky or unlucky. If he was lucky, he encountered the legendary Pokémon Ancient Saber. If he was unlucky, he suffered heavy losses, with all his Pokémon seriously injured. Now only Charizard was still able to fight.

…………

Just as Roger was stunned, a huge figure appeared at the cave entrance.

Salamence's massive body blocked the cave entrance. Kong Yixuan and Fatty Tianni jumped off Salamence and looked at the injured Charizard and Roger, their faces hidden behind masks revealing a mocking expression.

"So you were hiding here. It's been quite a search." Kong Yixuan's voice carried a hint of coldness: "Salamander, Thunder Fang!"

Without much preamble, Kong Yixuan immediately took action. The Salamence's mouth crackled with electricity as it bit down on the injured Charizard.

"Roar!"

Even though it was injured, the one-eyed Charizard did not back down at all. Dragon-type energy enveloped its claws, and it used the Dragon Claw move to choose to confront Salamence head-on!

"boom!"

In the clash, Roger's Charizard suffered a setback; the difference in strength sent it flying, aggravating its existing injuries.

The immense power of the Salamence before him filled Roger with a sense of foreboding.

Roger's gaze fell on the short man wearing a mask. He frowned, certain that he did not recognize the man and had never seen the mask he wore before. However, the man attacked him without warning, which clearly meant that he knew Roger and wanted to kill him.

"I didn't expect your Charizard to still be able to fight. In that case, go ahead, Rhyperior, use Stone Smash!" Seeing that Charizard still had the strength to fight, Kong Yixuan immediately took out a Poké Ball and released another Rhyperior to be on the safe side.

With two Elite Four level Pokémon defeating an injured Charizard, there was naturally no suspense left.

"Salamander, keep using Thunder Fang!"

Faced with the attack of two Pokémon, the one-eyed Charizard turned its head to look at Roger behind it, and then its whole body erupted with amazing fire-type energy. At this moment, almost all the fire-type energy in its body was about to burst out.

"Completely burned out!"

Endless flames filled the entire cave, but were blocked by Salamence's Protect move.

Meanwhile, the Rhyperior, having withstood the burning flames of Charizard, charged in front of Charizard and launched a Stone Attack, slamming into Charizard's body.

"Roar!"

With a painful howl, Charizard lost its ability to battle and lay on the ground unconscious.

"Come back, Charizard." Roger felt a chill in his heart. He knew he was most likely going to die here, and now he only hoped that Charizard would not be hurt anymore.

Kong Yixuan looked at Roger, his tone heavy with a teasing, cat-and-mouse-like quality: "Any last words, Captain Roger?"

Roger stared at Kong Yixuan without saying a word. Instead, he silently took the wine flask from his waist and gulped it down, not caring how strong the wine was: "Cough cough, since we're all going to die anyway, we can't waste this wine. Also, don't call me Captain Luo, call me Commander Luo."

Roger's voice did not tremble at all, as if he had already accepted his fate of death, and was even still struggling with the title of captain.

"Are you done talking?" Seeing Roger's calm and indifferent attitude towards life and death, Kong Yixuan felt a surge of anger. He was very dissatisfied with Roger's reaction.

Why is Roger so calm? He should have knelt down and begged him not to kill him. What makes him so calm?

Kong Yixuan looked at the calm Roger in front of him, his eyes gradually turning crazed. A perverse idea suddenly surged into his mind, and his cold voice rang out: "Captain Luo, I'll give you a chance to live."

As Kong Yixuan spoke, he took out his phone from his waist and pointed it at Roger: "If you shout 'Long live the Dawn Society,' I'll let you go."

Kong Yixuan watched Roger with great interest. He was curious whether Roger would shout "Long live the Dawn Society!" to save his life. He wanted to see if Roger could remain so calm once he had a chance to live.

Of course, even if Roger shouted, Kong Yixuan wouldn't let him go. He just liked watching people face death, seeing them struggle desperately for help with a glimmer of hope, pleading and begging, only to find themselves devastated and helpless when they discovered they had been deceived.

To his surprise, Roger remained remarkably calm, looking at Kong Yixuan with composure: "Are you a member of the Dawn Society?"

"Let me think... A Celestial King-level Flying Dragon plus a Super Armored Rhinoceros... You must have a close relationship with Kong Zhenhua, right? Looking at your burly appearance, you've inherited your father's genes. You must be his son, right?"

Roger's words instantly enraged Kong Yixuan, piercing his nerves. His eyes turned bloodshot, his breathing became heavy, and he pulled a pistol from his waist, aiming it at Roger: "Are you really looking for death? I'm asking you, are you going to shout or not?"

"Who do you think you are? The Dawn Society is nothing but trash, dog meat is not presentable. Do you think I'm afraid of your threats in this line of work?" Roger cursed vehemently.

"Bang! Bang! Bang!"

A series of gunshots rang out. Kong Yixuan did not stop until he emptied his magazine, while Roger was already dead beyond any doubt.

His beloved wine jug fell to the ground, and blood mixed with wine flowed all over the place.

Roger died. He died in the cave, in the wilderness he had guarded for over a decade. He had a peaceful smile on his face. He and his Pokémon fought to the very last moment, without disgracing the patrol team or the Charizard Survey Team.

In the instant of his death, he seemed to look back on his entire life, as if watching a movie replay.

Although there will be a new sun tomorrow, there will never be another sun like today. I really want to see the sunrise at Tianlin Mountain again.

Chapter 250 Xu Xiu's Secret

The north wind was howling and the snow was falling heavily.

The snow fell exceptionally deep, and everything in sight was a vast expanse of white, turning the entire sky into a white curtain.

Kong Yixuan, who had shot Roger, was in a state of extreme emotional instability, with smoke rising from the gun barrel. His expression was ferocious and terrifying. He stood there stunned for several breaths before gradually calming down.

Kong Yixuan frowned as he looked at Roger's body, silently changing the magazine while pondering how to handle the aftermath.

First, the body had to be disposed of, then the entire entrance to the cave was blocked, and finally the entire entrance was sealed off. In this way, no one could find Roger's body, and no one would know that he had killed Roger.

"Boom."

"Who?"

Just as he was thinking, a strange noise came from behind him. Sensitive and nervous, Kong Yixuan turned around instantly and fired his gun.

"boom!"

Gunshots rang out, but the bullets were easily blocked by Bangiras.

It was only then that Kong Yixuan could see who it was.

Xu Xiu? Why is he here?

Upon seeing that the visitor was Xu Xiu, Kong Yixuan's tense heart relaxed slightly.

Xu Xiu was just a trainer who had just entered the Elite Four level, and he only had one Elite Four level Tyranitar, whose strength was no match for him.

"Kong Yixuan." Xu Xiu saw Roger's corpse, his pupils contracted slightly, and his heart trembled, but his voice remained calm and hoarse: "Long time no see."

Kong Yixuan, wearing a mask, was slightly surprised and frowned. He hadn't expected that Xu Xiu would still recognize him even though he was wearing a mask.

Now that he had been recognized, Kong Yixuan decided not to hide his identity any longer. He took off his mask, looked at Xu Xiu, and asked in a questioning tone with a hostile attitude, "What are you doing here? Were you following me?"

“Following?” Xu Xiu’s face was expressionless as he stared at Kong Yixuan. “If you think so, then so be it. I never expected you would actually kill Roger. You are still as stupid as a pig, relying on your father’s protection to do stupid things without thinking.”

Hearing Xu Xiu's tirade and insults, Kong Yixuan's face flushed red, his expression contorted with rage, and his eyes flashed with a fierce light: "Who do you think you are, daring to lecture me? Bao Feilong, teach him a lesson, use tile-splitting!"

Salamence's fists crackled with Fighting-type energy, and with a flap of its wings, it charged fiercely toward Tyranitar.

"Tyranitar, Freeze Punch!"

Both of them attacked with the intention of killing the other.

Tyranitar is 4x weak to Fighting, so use Brick Break on Salamence.

Salamence is four times weak to ice, so Tyranitar uses Ice Punch.

Tyranitar's fist was covered in ice energy. He spun around and threw a punch that collided with Salamence.

"boom!"

Tyranitar and Salamence clashed, and the collision of their energies created a tremendous sound within the narrow cave.

Kong Yixuan only saw that Salamence was no match for Tyranitar. It was blasted away by a single punch, flew back, and crashed into the wall, leaving a dent.

"How is this possible?" Kong Yixuan's face showed a shocked expression. He did not expect that his Salamence would be seriously injured in just one exchange. Only then did he come to his senses: "Your Tyranitar is a Champion-level?!"

That's right, in just six months, Xu Xiu's Tyranitar's strength has increased dramatically again, from the Elite Four level to the Champion level.

Is this reasonable? This is very unreasonable.

Kong Yixuan then took a closer look at Xu Xiu and realized that he had been underestimating him all along.

Xu Xiu's resume has no highlights. The only special thing is that three years ago he wiped out an entire family for a baby Tyranitar, and then three years later he raised that baby Tyranitar into a Champion-level Tyranitar.
