Pokémon: Shadow of the Dawn

"this..."

Caidou was speechless. She knew that she couldn't see her opponent clearly in the dusty environment. Her father had hit a wall when he went out and was tied up here...

If they were really those lawless wilderness trainers, Gao Pu would probably not be caught at all, but would be killed directly and thrown into the sand, and then the Suchuan Gym would be attacked.

Since the other party has come to the Suchuan Dojo like this...

'It's just a reason to get my father back.'

Caidou made up her mind and no longer hesitated.

She then bent down, knelt on the ground, and folded her hands in front of her forehead, and knelt down:

"I'm very sorry, it was the owner of the Suchuan Pavilion who was rude! Please show some mercy and let the owner go. If you have any conditions, we will agree to them!"

Seeing this, Wang Jin also let Duolongqi release the master of the Suchuan Pavilion and said:

"I have some questions..."

As Gao Pu fell to the ground, Cai Dou stood up and helped him up.

Seeing the disciples hiding behind the door heaving a sigh of relief, Wang Jin asked again:

"Do you know where this dust comes from?"

"Ahem! It's not an alliance yet..." Gao Pu, who was barely able to catch his breath, narrated in a low voice, "They said they were going to dig up some bullshit history..."

"..."

After a while, with the help of Gao Pu and the gym apprentices who added to the story from time to time, Wang Jin had roughly sorted out the circumstances of the incident.

About five days ago, an archaeological team sent by Loz arrived at Suchuan Town and went directly to the Gobi Desert on the west side to start large-scale excavation.

After only one day, the town of Suchuan began to see blowing sand, but it was not as severe as it is now and did not affect operations much.

But two days ago, after the famous Undefeated Dan Emperor came here, the whole Suchuan Town seemed to be possessed by a ghost. The sand became more and more until it became like this.

The many trapped trainers soon rioted and established a leader.

"The leader is called Bolton, and he has three king-level Pokémon, all of which he trained himself. The attribute he is proficient in is bug..." Dyson, who was standing behind Caidou, lowered his head and spoke.

Wang Jin nodded continuously, writing down this information and then asked:

"Then do you know where the troops sent by the alliance are? And where is Emperor Dan?"

"The Gobi Desert in the west..." Gao Pu replied weakly.

After Wang Jin finished asking, he didn't say any more words. He waved his hand to let Duolongqi return to the shadow, and left with Maru and the other two.

After walking out of the gate of the Suchuan Gym, the Super Armored Rhino that was blocking the gym also began to move, following the four people westward.

In the Suchuan Dojo, Gao Pu sat down on the ground, bowed his head and said nothing. He didn't even dare to look up at Caidou's face, let alone explain anything.

"Master...it's okay, I'm just too strong..." Dyson cautiously came behind the master and comforted him.

Gao Pu also responded with a wry smile:

"Haha, yes, I'm just not as skilled as others. If I could have the skills of the previous gym owner..."

He said, looking up.

There were only some gym apprentices around her with different looks in their eyes, and Caidou had already returned to the training ground.

...

In an alley near the Suchuan Dojo.

The man covered in a khaki robe pressed silently against the wall, watching the powerful super-armored rhino go away.

He quickly turned around and entered the alley. After making several turns, he came to a large residential building and knocked on the door three times rhythmically.

"coming!"

A rough roar from behind the door opened the door, and the man slid into the house through the crack like a nimble fish.

I saw big men huddled in various places in the house. The burly man who was sitting cross-legged on the bed asked in a deep voice:

"Camille, you first said that someone from the alliance came in... Then, what did you see? Who was fighting with whom?"

"Master Bolton." Camille paused, "It was the Tsukuni Gym Leader Gao Pu who got into a fight with that Alliance trainer."

"Huh? We are all members of the Alliance, but we are killing each other?" Bolton stretched out his arm, which was thicker than an adult's thigh, and rubbed his smooth forehead, unable to figure out the reason.

Bolton asked:

"Do you know why?"

Camille quickly organized her words and replied:

"It seems that Gao Pu mistook the League trainer for one of ours. But he failed to defeat them and was captured by those League trainers."

"Oh? Hahaha!" Bolton raised his head and laughed, "Dead?"

"Not dead." Camille answered cautiously, "but all the Poké Balls on him were stolen by the League trainers. Do you think we should..."

Bolton shook his head.

"I won't go to the Suchuan Daoguan."

"This is for..."

"Because Gao Pu had already sold all the valuables and used the money to train his daughter. I'm afraid the most valuable thing in the whole gym is the King-level Pokémon that Gao Pu inherited from his father. Unfortunately..."

Bolton said, smacking his lips.

"What should we do now?" Camille was a little confused. "If we don't go to the Mission Hall, then where should we go?"

"Go to the west and see what the birdmen of the alliance are doing!"

Bolton slapped his thigh and waved his hand to drive Camille away:

"Just go call a few more people, see what's going on, and then come back and report."

...

Wang Jin and his three companions went straight through Suchuan Town. Apart from the flying sand, no one and no Pokémon dared to cause trouble.

They quickly walked out of Suchuan Town and walked down the buried stairs. Through the sometimes thin yellow sand, they could vaguely see broken rocks in the distance.

In such a vast desert, it is impossible to find an exact location and it is also difficult to discover the group's troops.

Maru kept operating the communication device, but finally gave up and said to Wang Jin:

"I don't know why. After entering Suchuan Town, the communication device has no signal and can't receive anything."

Wang Jin nodded slightly, prepared for this situation.

The end of the stairs was in front of them, and the front was all desert and deformed rocks. Wang Jin stopped the Super Armored Rhino and then said:

"Duolongqi, fly up into the air and scout the situation."

Duolongqi emerged from the shadows, turned around, and flew away in the wind and sand, leaving no trace.

The four of them waited in silence, and Lurina was the first to speak doubtfully:

"Does the group really have a way to stop these sandstorms?"

"Who knows?" Maru squatted down and fiddled with the lonely little wild grass that was sticking to the ground at his feet.

Wang Jin was still thinking, but saw Onio take out the Poké Ball and release Mimikyu. Mimikyu swooped into the dust and disappeared.

The two-meter-tall Wandering Night Spirit under Ounio slowly moved into the wind and sand, opened his hands and released ghost energy. The energy formed a semicircular barrier to block the wind and sand.

Seeing this, Lurina also used her Violent Turtle to create a two-meter-high fine rock wall, which merged with the solid ice created by Maru's Ice-Walking Doll, just enough to cover the four people.
