Pokémon: Shadow of the Dawn

Jiqing City.

The Mechanical Gym is located in the center of the second floor of the city. Since the city as a whole has not yet been rebuilt from steel and steam, the entire gym is hard bronze, with huge but slowly rotating gears exposed.

Inside the training ground of the dojo, a man with a resolute face and a strong body was jogging around the training ground. The newly grown white hair on his temples was soaked with sweat, and his whole face looked as if he had just washed, but he was still running forward tirelessly.

The brown wooden door beside the training ground suddenly opened, and a short and thin gym disciple in a red uniform rushed in, shouting in panic:

"Master Ka Wu!"

Ka Wu finally recovered from his jogging and ran towards the disciple. He wiped the sweat off his face with the white towel around his neck and asked:

"Xiaobo, what's wrong? What's the matter?"

"Master..." Xiaobo was anxious and nervous, but this made him speechless.

Ka Wu saw how upset he was, so he stretched out his hand to interrupt Xiao Bo's thoughts and said first:

"I told you to nod or shake your head. I'm asking you, is there anyone from the group coming?"

Xiaobo nodded frantically.

Ka Wu couldn't help but chuckle and asked again:

"Are trainers prohibited from entering or leaving the Mechanical Engine City?"

Xiaobo nodded again.

"Are you still going to break into our gym to check for prohibited props and materials under the pretext of investigating a case?" Ka Wu touched his neck twice with the towel and said nonchalantly.

Xiaobo finally returned to normal and lowered his voice anxiously:

"They have already reached the hall outside. Do we want to use our fire suppressing stones..."

"No need." Ka Wu patted the gym apprentice on the shoulder and comforted him, "Don't worry about them, just deny it. If they want to come in and search, just tell them that I won't let them in, and go ahead."

"This..." Xiaobo's face was full of confusion and worry, but he still obediently pushed open the door and walked out.

After seeing Xiaobo leave, Ka Wu clenched the towel tightly and wiped the sweat dripping from his face.

Then, after his body's breathing returned to normal, Kawu started jogging again.

Whenever he felt nervous or was thinking about something, he would subconsciously want to jog. This habit had almost become a part of his body, and Kawu felt uncomfortable if he didn't run.

"The unshakable famous family, the Jiqing Gym... cannot be lost in my hands..." Ka Wu muttered, his legs already numb.

The gym in Jiqing City, which has existed since the establishment of the Alliance, belongs to Kabu's family. His family has been a famous and prestigious family in Galar for hundreds of years. At its peak, it was almost on par with the Dragon Family in Quanguan City, and was known as the two major families that ruled the northern and southern wilderness.

Now only Ka Wu and his cousin Xiao Bo are left from this generation.

But Kabu’s talent as a trainer is really not good, and the same goes for his cousin Xiaobo.

"So, Kabu must be doing this to keep his position as the gym leader... It would be best if he could blow up important figures of the group, and then pour the dirty water on Quan Guanshi's head."

In the lobby of the Mechanical Gym, Maru, wearing a black robe, leaned over and whispered to Onio and Lurina.

The rows of group troops in front almost blocked the front door of the Mecha Gym, not only preventing the gym disciples guarding the door from leaving, but also preventing the trainers watching outside from coming in at all.

After receiving an urgent mission, Maru and the other two followed the large army to Jiqing City.

"Wang Jin..." Lulina asked hesitantly. She knew that Wang Jin had gone to the northern wilderness for training, but the accident happened in the northern wilderness. It was said that the darkness this time almost covered the entire wilderness...

Ounio also turned his face with a pale mask on.

Maru waved his hand slightly in front of Onio and said casually:

"He was able to survive the pursuit of the group. How could Brother Jin be such a reckless person? The Rumble Rock explosion? He was probably the first one to rush out of the dark night. Besides, Granny Sha and Grandpa Ruby are here. How could anything happen to him?"

......

Quanguan City, Pokémon Center.

Wang Jin was dozing off leaning against the door frame, while old man Ruby next to him had fallen asleep leaning against the wall.

Only Granny Sha was actually dozing off, and she would open her eyes from time to time to observe the two people sleeping soundly and the Pokémon Center.

Time passed by little by little, and now the sky is a little gloomy.

Chibana took the opportunity to have the Quanguan City Law Enforcement Team block the stairs on both sides of the second floor. After coming up from the first floor, one can only walk left or right to go to the Pokémon Center on both sides or go directly out of the city.

The central Pokémon Center and the Kung Fu Arena were completely blocked, and it was announced that the Kung Fu Gym and the Marokomon Group had important matters that were still under discussion.

As a matter of course, all irrelevant trainers who were still wandering in the boxing gym's arena were expelled from the blockade area, and some trainers who were still in the private rooms were also asked to leave in a daze.

After all the outsiders were cleared out, Chibana and Kabali asked Woods and others to keep an eye on the situation of the Pokémon Center and the group forces, and then left.

The attentive Woods brought a few tables and benches from somewhere and got a lot of good meat from the hairy-horned sheep.

The Hairy Horned Sheep is an evolved form of the Hairy Braided Sheep. Not only does it not have the strong mutton smell of the Hairy Braided Sheep, but its meat is also firm and tender, making it a perfect choice for the dining table.

Braided sheep are very good economic livestock, and ordinary farms will breed them in large quantities. The wool of Braided sheep grows very fast and can be sold in large quantities. The evolution level of Braided sheep is relatively low, only level 24 (elite level). After accidentally evolving, they can be sent directly to the slaughterhouse to be turned into mutton, which is convenient and quick.

The meat of the woolly horn sheep can be prepared in various ways. The one that Woods sent was marinated, and paired with several barrels of ice-cold rye beer brewed in Caolu Town, it was really...

"It feels so good!" A member of the B5 unit of the group drank the beer in the glass in one gulp and then took a big bite of the mutton.

Sitting by the second-floor wall of Quanguan City, facing the breeze, drinking and eating meat.

There's never been a better time than now.

Many team members casually unbuttoned their uniforms and sat lazily on the tables and chairs brought by the law enforcement officers, chatting and eating with Woods and others.

Before consuming the wine and meat, they would always persuade Woods to take a bite first to avoid any problems.

Now in front of the boxing gym arena, the law enforcement team and the group hunting team are mixed together, and it is difficult to tell the difference between them.

Their captain, Geller, was seriously injured and was in the Pokémon Center next door. The temporary leader of the B5 team was a thin man with a brown face, and he just sat down without drinking any wine or meat.

Woods hugged him and called out drunkenly:

"Brother Gaiken, why don't you take some food inside? It's not good for us to eat and drink outside..."

Gaiken just glanced at him and ignored him.

Unless he was ordered to do so, he would never do anything other than fulfill his mission, which was why he was able to temporarily take over Geller's leadership.
