Pokémon: Shadow of the Dawn

Chapter 97 Wilderness Trainer and Hostage

"Shit, forget about those damn hyenas!"

Upon hearing this, Maru jumped up from the sofa and shouted hurriedly:

"We have to find them quickly. If anything goes wrong, this mission will be tarnished..."

"I'm afraid there's no need to look for it." Onio said slowly, then turned his head, the empty eyes on the pale mask looked towards the direction of Suchuan Town. The puppet-covered Mimikyu also popped out from Onio's shoulder.

When Ounio first came out of the ruins, he released Mimicryuu to investigate the surrounding situation.

As they were talking, there was a loud commotion outside the tent.

"Who are those people?"

"You look like a scavenger in the wilderness. How dare you come to our group? I really can't believe it..."

"Maybe he's here to beg for food."

"Why don't we call the guys in the tent? Boss Geller is gone, so they're the ones in charge."

"Tsk... If they hadn't come down to save people, I would have turned into a ghost..."

As he spoke, Wang Jin pulled open the tent curtain and met a lean team member. After a simple nod, the team member made way and Wang Jin also strode out.

Groups of soldiers in grey uniforms gathered at the edge of the dilapidated city wall to discuss. In the distance, more than a dozen men in brown robes were walking towards them.

The breeze blew up fine yellow sand and blew past those people, like a layer of veil in front of a desert dancer.

Wang Jin led the team to the front and could easily see the faces of those people, as well as the researchers in white coats that were tied tightly in their hands.

"I'm afraid they are here to demand the money for the prisoners..."

Wang Jin guessed the purpose of these people.

These hunters were very brave. They should have sent people to observe the situation before the sandstorm died down. After finding that most of the people in the group’s camp had left, they actually rushed into the tent and arrested all the researchers.

Since the hunters don't kill people and don't take those bulky and useless instruments, it seems that they have to use hostages to exchange resources.

"These bastards are really..." Maru was furious. This mission should have been completed and I could have returned to the group building to rest. But these damn hyenas tied up those bitches again...

Wang Jin looked back at the still chaotic group and immediately shouted:

"All team members! Line up and prepare for battle! The enemy may rush directly to the camp!"

The sound was unusually loud, and the originally lazy troop members subconsciously stood up straighter and quieted down.

Although it was not Captain Geller who spoke, most of them recognized the guy in front of them. He was the lucky boy who had somehow subdued the champion-level Doronchi in the wilderness before.

The lucky boy not only collected elves, but was also valued by Lord Roz... which made some team members very jealous. But after all, the lucky boy in front of them had just saved their lives and had strength in his hands, so they did not object.

No matter how much you underestimate those hyenas, the enemy is indeed approaching.

Wang Jin deliberately exaggerated the other party's purpose, hoping to cheer up the team members. Seeing that the order had some effect, he led these people forward and met the hunters in the light sand.

The distance between the two sides was getting closer and closer. When the distance was less than 50 meters, the atmosphere was tense to the extreme. All the trainers clenched their Poké Balls at the same time.

Just waiting for an opportunity for a battle to break out, dozens or even hundreds of Pokémon may jump out at the same time, triggering a war.

"We are here to negotiate!" The yellow-robed man in the lead raised the researcher in the white coat in his hand, as if holding up a white flag. His voice was carried to Wang Jin and the others' ears by the breeze.

As researchers were lifted up one by one, the tension between the two sides gradually dissipated.

After realizing that a fight would not break out, the group members looked at the shameful captives in silence.

About ten breaths later, Wang Jin, who was leading the group, was two meters away from the leader of the other side and was looking at each other.

"Hehe...you..." The hunter leader paused for a moment and guessed, "You and the three people behind you are the group reinforcements that arrived not long ago, right? You also defeated Gao Pu, right?"

Wang Jin did not reply, but also asked:

"Are you Bolton?"

Hearing this, the two-meter-tall man in front of him also took off his hood, revealing his smooth forehead. He laughed and shouted:

"You actually know me? It seems that I am not a small fry in the eyes of the group..."

"Boton!" A member of the army in the back came forward and seemed to know the bald man. He then realized something and explained to Wang Jin in a low voice: "This man is a superb trainer who specializes in bug attributes. Our group once recruited him..."

"The conditions offered by the group are too low, I might as well rob it myself!" Bolton also heard these words and replied loudly.

"Bug attribute..." Wang Jin frowned, remembering the information he had obtained before, saying that this Bolton had three king-level bug-attribute Pokémon.

Bug-type Pokémon generally have the characteristics of low potential, easy to cultivate, and fast growth. Low potential allows bugs to quickly evolve to their final form and have certain combat capabilities, but it also limits the continued growth of bugs.

Under normal circumstances, Pokémon can evolve to their final form. Before the final form, because the body is still growing, the level and strength will also increase accordingly. However, after most Pokémon reach their final form, their potential is exhausted and it is difficult to increase their strength.

This is also the reason why many trainers pay attention to race theory. Dragon-attribute Pokémon have a higher growth line of strength, such as Dragonite, which has not yet evolved to the champion level.

Pokémon that can exhaust their theoretical potential, especially those with bug-type Pokémon, basically have special means to cultivate them well. Either through cultivation or by identifying talents, in short, this attribute specialization is worthy of the name.

"I don't want to cultivate bug-type Pokémon either!" Bolton growled. "They grow fast and die fast... In just a few years, my first Pokémon died long ago."

Bolton shook the researcher in his hand twice and got to the point:

"I need Pokémon! Pokémon with good talents and species! Two dragon-type Pokémon that can be trained to at least champion level, in exchange for these white coats!"

"dream!"

Before Wang Jin could speak, the team member next to him shouted.

Wang Jin glanced at the man and replied to Bolton:

“These people are not worth it.”

Hearing this, the researcher in Bolton's hand struggled with all his might, whimpering through the white cloth that was blocking his mouth.

Bolton smiled, took the cloth out of the researcher's mouth, and shouted:

"You tell me if it's worth it!"

"Huff~" This researcher was the tall one with curly hair from before. He took two deep breaths and kept shouting, "We have the key research data on the ruins! This is what President Ross has ordered! We must give it to..."

Before he finished speaking, Wang Jin interrupted him:

"The data is all in the instrument. It doesn't matter whether you are there or not."
