Pokémon: Shadow of the Dawn

"They may not be dead yet."

Emperor Dan said in a deep voice:

"If it was the legendary sword and shield hero, he wouldn't have killed people on such a large scale."

"Ha!" Hagrid chuckled and retorted, "What if the person being killed had just killed, captured, and expelled a large number of Pokémon? The Sword and Shield Hero is a Pokémon, so he will naturally stand on the side of the Pokémon."

"If that's the case!" Dandi raised his voice, "Then I want to see the body even if I die!"

He then strode towards the tent curtain, lifted a corner of the tent, and turned to look at Wang Jin and the other three.

Emperor Dan was silent for a moment and then said:

"I will stop the sandstorm now and stop those wild Pokémon so that they cannot return to the underground for the time being. You can take this opportunity to use the route left by the B5 troops to find them. The road has been explored and it will be much safer."

Hearing this, Maru and Lurina looked at Wang Jin at the same time.

Now the backbone of their special team is Wang Jin. Wang Jin is also the strongest, and they all believe in him.

Wang Jin thought for a moment and finally nodded in agreement.

After watching Dandi nod synchronously and leave the tent, Wang Jin also looked back at the researchers in the tent.

Dante was right. The Pokémon group that caused the most trouble to Team B5 underground had already left. They just needed to quickly search for the lost Team B5 along the way.

As for the sword dog and shield dog, Wang Jin remembered that they both lived in the Misty Forest in the south of Galar. And the one that appeared here was just a shadow, so it was definitely not the real body.

Besides, these two are relatively friendly legendary Pokémon, lawful good.

The underground ruins are basically not dangerous at the moment, and the mission of their special team is to rescue and prevent... In short, bring the people or corpses up and stop the sandstorm, and Wang Jin and his team's mission will be accomplished.

"Um... everyone, is it time to loosen the bandages?" Hagrid's glasses had fallen off his nose because he couldn't move his hands or feet to push them up. "This mission still requires us to provide direction..."

Wang Jin came back to his senses, glanced at these unreliable guys, and then looked at Ounio:

"Let the guy with glasses go first. Tie up the others and make them into human sticks. Just make sure they don't die."

After Ounio nodded, he waved his hand gently, and the Wandering Night Spirit also let go of Hagrid at the same time.

In contrast, the other researchers were wrapped more tightly. The tall brown-haired man who was wrapped like a mummy finally showed his head and breathed hard and greedily.

Hagrid saw this and knew that he needed to be a traitor, so he asked respectfully:

"Look, I..."

Wang Jin waved his hand to interrupt him and ordered:

"Hurry up and draw the route and transmit it to our communication device. Quickly!"

"Uh..." Hagrid was speechless, and seeing the Wandering Night Spirit staring at him and the child wearing a strange white mask, he could not help but speed up his movements.

Under the supervision of Wang Jin and others, Haig completed the statistics of all the route maps in just five or six minutes. He also inserted Wang Jin and others' communication devices into the computer to transmit data.

After a moment, Wang Jin looked at the clear route on the communication device and nodded with satisfaction. He put on his mask and walked out of the tent.

Maru and Lurina followed, while Ounio hesitated for a while before leaving on the Wandering Night Spirit.

In the tent, Hagrid, who was also wrapped like a human stick, was piled in the corner with others, whimpering and struggling.

Outside, Wang Jin and his three companions braved the wind and sand and soon arrived at the rock statue that had been eroded beyond recognition.

Wang Jin looked up at the once majestic statue, and his intuition told him that this was a resounding rock statue.

There are two Sword and Shield Heroes. Could the other one be in this Gobi Desert as well?

Wang Jin guessed, took out the lighting device and looked into the dark cave about one person high. Judging from the relatively neat cracks on the edge of the cave, it was very likely that the group's people used tools to open it up themselves.

Inside was a brown-yellow rock wall with a circular passage extending downwards.

Due to the strong wind and sand, the bottom of the passage was also covered with thick sand. Wang Jin stepped in and his shoes sank before he felt the hard ground.

"Be careful, and remember to be ready to release Pokémon at any time." Wang Jin said as he continued to move forward with the portable lighting device.

He called out Gastly and Doronesia, the two little guys with ghost attributes who could move freely in such an environment.

The purple gas flame around Gastly can also serve as a lighting source.

"Hiss!"

Gastly was like a ball of will-o'-the-wisp, floating happily up and down in the cave. The timid Dolmaea soon followed Gastly's pace and learned to swim back and forth in the descending cave with him.

Wang Jin and his friends walked about thirty or forty meters and still didn't see any trace of Pokémon, and this circular rock corridor was gradually becoming flat.

According to the route map, if you walk about ten meters, you will come to an underground cave dug by ground-attribute Pokémon.

The lighting device could only see the nearby rock walls, so Wang Jin looked at the leading Gastly, observing whether the terrain had changed by the purple fire on its body.

After walking a few more steps, Gastly shook and disappeared in front, and Doronki also poked his head out and flew out of Wang Jin's sight.

"We've reached the underground cave..." Wang Jin said, taking cautious steps. After confirming that there was no quicksand or anything like that at the junction of the terrain, he walked into the extremely spacious cave.

With the arrival of Maru, Lurina, and Onio, Wang Jin and his team were able to barely see the situation here with the help of three lighting devices set to maximum brightness.

This cave is roughly a flat oval in shape, at least several hundred square meters, with irregularly scattered stone pillars of varying thicknesses connecting the upper and lower parts.

The ground was covered with a layer of sand about ten centimeters thick. Wang Jin felt that the sand must have flowed down from above.

And in front, two dark cave entrances were waiting quietly on the left and right sides.

Gastly and Doron Messiah were floating back and forth in front of the two cave entrances, not sure which one to go to.

Wang Jin turned on the communication device, confirmed the route, and pointed to the right.

"Walk!"

As soon as the voice fell, the two Pokémon couldn't wait to drill into the hole on the right.

Wang Jin briefly explored the road before following them in.

This time the entrance to the cave is much larger, with a distance of over three meters on the left and right, and the shape of the cave is still a flat circle.

There is not much dust here, and the road surface is all hard rock, which makes Wang Jin and his team walk much faster.

Since Dandi was also heading west, he needed to stop the wild Pokémon from releasing more sand and stop them from staying on the western coast. Therefore, the time left for Wang Jin and his team was very limited, maybe only three or four hours.

However, Wang Jin still believed in Dan Emperor. If he hadn't seen them come out, Dan Emperor would definitely not let those wild Pokémon go.
