Pokémon: Shadow of the Dawn

The snack shops on the street are filled with rich aromas, and the wind chimes in the pavilions emit long and crisp sounds.

Perhaps due to different customs, the small vendors here never shout, but just sit quietly in front of their stalls waiting for the right person.

Most of the pedestrians were wearing traditional clothes and walked leisurely and slowly, without any sense of urgency and tension of pedestrians in big cities. It looked like a nice holiday resort.

Wang Jin stood on the street and sent a message to the handsome guy:

"I'm already in Alola, where are you?"

The handsome guy quickly replied with a question mark, and then said:

"Master Champion! I just received the mission transfer order, and you are already there? This is too fast! I am still in the Kalos area... but I basically know the situation there."

As he spoke, the handsome guy introduced a local undercover agent in Alola, whose real identity was an international secret investigator under the headquarters, and he could cooperate with the headquarters in relevant investigations at any time.

This person is on Ula'ula Island, and he is a guy that everyone on Ula'ula Island knows...the king of the island, Merdan!

The King of the Island is the ruler of the entire island and has great power, similar to the Four Heavenly Kings of the Alola region.

Merdan was able to get this position undercover mainly because of luck, because the king of the island is decided by the island's guardian god. Whoever the four legendary elves like can become the king of the island.

"But Miss Lila is still the person in charge of the Alola region." The handsome guy sent a message, "Speaking of which, she was my subordinate before..."

"Don't talk nonsense." Wang Jin interrupted at the right time, "Where is she?"

The handsome guy quickly sent the address and contact information, and gave a brief introduction of the information.

The full name of the organization deployed by the General Alliance in Alola is the UB Countermeasures Department, and the UB here means Ultra Beast.

Lila was originally the leader of the battle expansion area and was also considered a senior member of the alliance. But six years ago, when the handsome guy and Merdan participated in the baiting tactics to capture the Ultra Beast in Alola, they made a mistake and killed a colleague... and found Lila who had lost her memory.

Since every life that comes out of the Ultimate Cave will be bathed in the energy therein, and humans bathed in energy will attract Ultimate Beasts to chase and attack, such people are called Fall.

To capture the ultimate beast, you need such a Fall to lure the beast over and then capture it. This is the bait tactic.

After the bait-spreading tactic went wrong, the handsome guy was quickly transferred out of the Alola region.

"The Ultimate Hole is very dangerous, and I guess it may be connected to another world. If you want to deal with it, it's best to take a long-term view and investigate the Aether Foundation and the local evil organization Skull Team first."

The handsome guy said so.

The task he received was to cooperate with Wang Jin to study and solve the Ultimate Hole, and naturally come up with a more reliable solution.

But Wang Jin had the opposite idea. He was going to go directly into the cave to see what it looked like inside... In order not to let the handsome guy hold him back, he simply ordered:

"Handsome guy, don't rush into anything. Just look for the relevant information. We'll get in touch in half a month."

"it is good."

The handsome guy readily agreed.

Wang Jinze walked hurriedly and quickly disappeared into the street.

......

at the same time.

At the Aether Foundation headquarters in the center of the Alola region, Lusamine, the president, also received the message.

"President Lusamine!"

Kukui came to the office panting and walked quickly, and said solemnly;

"Regarding the establishment of the Alola Alliance, the Alliance's solution is to send an inspector to conduct a detailed investigation in the Alola region..."

Lusamine, who was processing documents, raised her head. Under her long golden hair that looked like the remains of a cicada pupa, was a face that looked more like a young girl. She looked very calm and continued to ask calmly:

"Then, Dr. Kukui. The reason for your anxiety may be the identity of this inspector. Is he special? Is he the league's king, or the champion... or is he the legendary trainer who has become famous recently?"

Kukui smiled bitterly and said, "It's Wang Jin. If he comes, I'm afraid the matter of the Ultimate Cave will be revealed. We haven't joined the alliance yet, so I'm afraid he may not help solve it."

Lusamine asked, "Dr. Kukui, are you familiar with him?"

Kukui hesitated, "I'm afraid I'm not familiar with it..."

He and Wang Jin had only met at the Quartz Conference. It had been a few years and they were still enemies. There was no such thing as familiarity or unfamiliarity between them.

Lusamine thought quietly for a moment, then stood up and said, "Notify the kings of the four islands, contact the Hoenn Research Institute and the General Alliance to confirm his schedule. I will go to greet him in person and see what he thinks of Alola."

......

Ula'ula Island.

The House of Ether.

This is a place similar to the Pokémon Center and the Doctor's Institute, but it is actually a branch of Aether Paradise established on the island.

In the hall, several researchers hurriedly ran to a thin middle-aged man who had just entered and said:

"Lord Merdan! The chairman has ordered us to prepare to welcome a great man from the general alliance. Let's..."

"How could it be our turn to welcome them? Just show your appreciation."

Merdan waved his hand lazily and sat casually on a nearby sofa. After seeing several researchers leaving after discussing something, he took out the communication device with a gloomy look.

As the king of the island and a qualified undercover agent of the General Alliance, he naturally often goes in and out of the House of Ether and is very familiar with the staff here.

And in a sense, after showing his loyalty to the Ether Foundation, Merdan is also considered a branch director of the Ether House and will obey the orders of the Foundation.

"A big shot from the General Alliance..." Murdan muttered, "Legendary trainer, Kanto champion, Wang Jin?"

After he saw the mission to cooperate with the operation and had a brief contact with the handsome guy, he couldn't help but sigh deeply.

He couldn't be more clear about the situation in the Alola region, which was almost completely controlled by the Aether Foundation.

Under the Ether Foundation's complete blockade of information and schedule, no one would be able to find out anything wrong, especially a "newcomer" who had never been to the Alola region.

If he wants to find out the result, he must get closer to the Ultimate Hole... He can't just go straight to the Ultimate Hole, right?

The method to open the Ultimate Hole is in the hands of the Ether Foundation.

"I do want to go directly to the Ultimate Cave to take a look." A steady voice came from the back, "I wonder if Mr. Merdan is willing to tell me the location of Cosmogu?"
