Pokémon: Shadow of the Dawn

"Om~"

The sound of gears turning in large machines lingered everywhere, and the industrial elevator connecting the first and second floors of Quanguan City started to start.

This elevator is just a large square platform with a little fence. When it is almost full of passengers, it can be moved by relevant personnel.

This public elevator is completely free and is a unique landscape in Quanguan City.

Wang Jin leaned on the edge of the elevator, listening to the idle chatter of the passengers around him.

"There are quite a few participants in this gym tour?"

"Compared to before, there are one or two more..."

"Do you also think that someone used connections to force you to attend?"

"Who knows? My strength will be exposed in a fight, haha."

"I wonder if that Dan Emperor is really undefeated."

As they were talking, the gear elevator vibrated slightly, and the group had already arrived at the first floor of Quanguan City.

Those tourists who seemed to be from other towns soon walked towards a dessert shop together, while Wang Jin stood close to the street, counting the shop numbers.

"209...301, 302..."

Wang Jin walked from the clothing store to the flower shop and stopped at the entrance of an alley.

Shop No. 307 is right in front, and next to it is a deep alley.

Wang Jin felt that this alley was more like the entrance to the black market than store 307.

"Sprite Resource Store..."

Wang Jin stood at the edge of the alley and muttered to himself, stopping beside the tall green plants used as decoration in front of the store.

The key point is that this store also has the official label of the Galar League, which should be exclusive to the League trainers...

He was worried that he would be caught as soon as he entered and questioned where he came from.

Is the location given by Maru reliable?

Wang Jin was a little hesitant.

At this time, a middle-aged man with greasy hair came to the front of the store with a child of seven or eight years old. After looking at Wang Jin with contempt, he pushed the door open and walked in.

"Welcome!" The owner's voice was so loud that Wang Jin outside could hear it clearly.

Looking inside through the glass door, the middle-aged man was selecting items from rows of shelves, then coming to the counter to pay.

"Om..."

The door was opened again. The middle-aged man glanced at Wang Jin again, picked up something in one hand and left with the child in the other.

After a few days of outdoor travel, Wang Jin was covered with fine plaster, his brown coat had turned black, and his hair was messy and tangled. At first glance, it was obvious that he had not been groomed for a long time, so it was normal for people to dislike him.

When Wang Jin was considering whether to go in and take a look, a voice came from inside the store.

"Hey! Friend, what are you doing standing outside? Do you want to come in and take a look?" The fat shop owner with a round face half-closed the glass door and poked his head out.

He tapped his chin and invited Wang Jin in.

After taking a quick look inside the store and confirming that there was no one else there except the owner, Wang Jin followed him in.

The fat shop owner was unusually tall, almost two meters tall, and had a very loud voice. He sat down at the counter, pointed at a metal door at the back and said:

"One thousand Alliance coins."

Wang Jin's eyes moved slightly, and he quickly took out the banknotes and put them on the counter. The fat shop owner also quickly put away the banknotes.

Wang Jin strode towards the metal door, opened it and walked in.

It was pitch black inside the door and nothing could be seen. Wang Jin had no choice but to hold the door handle and stand there watching.

"Hello..." A steady male voice sounded not far away.

The door handle suddenly exerted a huge force, and Wang Jin couldn't pull it at all, and the metal door was pushed closed.

Wang Jin instantly tightened his grip on the knife in his pocket.

"Don't be afraid, we are very reputable... You seem to have contacted us before? You are so sensitive." A steady male voice said slowly, lightly touching his fingertips and snapping his fingers.

"Oh!"

The lights in the room suddenly came on.

A man in a black robe sat behind a long table, with a chair directly opposite him.

But on one side of the room was a huge mahogany wall cabinet with a black door in the center.

What Wang Jin couldn't believe was that there was a huge floor-to-ceiling window on the other side of the room. Looking down, he saw lawns and gardens he had never seen before.

This is definitely not Quanguan City!

After the snap of fingers just now, he was taken to another place.

"Is it a superpower? Instant teleportation?" Wang Jin asked in shock, standing in front of the floor-to-ceiling window.

“Hmm!” The black-robed man nodded slowly and praised, “Not bad, the reaction is quite quick. When some people came for the first time, they yelled at us to let him go, saying it was an illegal arrest. Hehehe…”

Wang Jin didn't say anything, just walked to the table and sat down.

"I thought you would be scared like those people." The man in black robe said to himself.

"Is this the building of the Marrokomon Group?" Wang Jin asked him.

"Yes, it is also the best place for trading." replied the man in black robe.

Wang Jin nodded slowly. He thought the black market was like a secret bazaar, where everyone wore masks or something to hide their identities, and then set up stalls to trade...

"It was like this a long time ago, but after President Los unified the market, it adopted the current form that is safer, more efficient and more secure." The man in black robe replied after eavesdropping on Wang Jin's words using his superpowers.

After noticing Wang Jin's vigilant look, he explained:

"If you don't want me to listen, I can choose not to use my ability."

"Is there anyone who likes to be eavesdropped on?" Wang Jin couldn't help but ask back.

"Of course! Since we opened this business, many escaped illegal immigrants have come to us for psychological counseling, but we charge a fee... Since you are a newcomer..."

"Okay, I don't know if you are listening or not, and I don't need any psychological counseling. Let's get down to business." Wang Jin interrupted the black-robed man's explanation.

"Okay, my dear sir. You may need an alliance identity card..." The man in black robe went straight to the point.

Wang Jin frowned slightly, somewhat skeptical about this kind of alliance identity card:

"Registered trainer in the league? Can this kind of thing be bought and sold casually?"

"No, of course not. It's just an ordinary ID card, not a registered trainer's identity. With this card, you will get rid of the trouble of being an illegal resident and become a citizen of the alliance. If you make certain contributions to the alliance in the future, you can enroll your children in the ranks of registered trainers."

"how much is it?"

Wang Jin couldn't help but ask.

This so-called black market is actually a universal store, with the Marrokomon Group as the backer. As the president of the Galar Alliance, Ross can open such stores all over Galar, and can buy and sell anything, making huge profits while satisfying customer needs.

Normally, you need to go to the Pokémon Center or the Public Security Bureau to apply for the Alliance ID card. But in Galar, you can buy it on the black market, or perhaps it can only be bought on the black market.

"Two hundred thousand Alliance coins, no bargaining. No deception..."

The man in black robe said slowly.
