Pokémon: What should I do? My father-in-law always wants to tear me apart

"Huh? All eliminated?"

Lin Guochang looked at the referee in astonishment, as if he had not expected this result at all.

When his eyes fell on Hannah and Olaf who were carried off the field by medical staff, his confusion grew even more.

He turned to look at his son Lin Yi, his eyes full of disbelief.

Lin Yi stood there quietly, watching all this with an expressionless face.

He signaled to Lucario, and Lucario obediently walked to Swampert and used Life Drops to heal the wounds of himself and Swampert.

Lin Yi nodded slightly and gave a positive answer to his father's question:

"Yeah, that's right. Fortunately, we are allowed to attack trainers directly this year, otherwise, it would be difficult for me to deal with them in such a short time."

Lin Guochang frowned and continued to ask: "Then how many people are left in your second team?"

Lin Yi sighed and replied, "Yun Shang only has one Pokémon left, Cen Zhi and Xiao Yichen have both been eliminated, and Lu Xinghui has two left. I asked them to hide first to avoid unnecessary fighting."

At this point, Lin Yi's tone was somewhat helpless, and he was obviously worried about the current situation.

"Only Gardevoir was eliminated on my side, but with so many teammates eliminated, I'm afraid it won't be my turn to be the champion this year." Lin Yi shook his head with a wry smile.

Lin Guochang raised the corner of his mouth slightly, revealing a smile: "A second-tier team wants to be the champion, isn't your appetite a bit too big?"

Lin Yi did not respond to his father's ridicule, but simply said: "We'll talk about it when the time comes."

"boom--"

Suddenly, there was an explosion in the distance.

"Huaxia Team 2, Yunshang, Lu Xinghui are eliminated"

The referee announced, and the avatars of Yun Shang and Lu Xinghui on the big screen also dimmed.

In the blink of an eye, Lin Yi was the only one left in the Huaxia second team.

Lin Yi's face changed.

"They were eliminated? Who was it!?"

……

"The two women we just eliminated seem to be members of the Chinese Second Team, right?"

A girl with delicate features and cascading blonde hair was gently stroking Picosi beside her, while stroking her chin thoughtfully, as if she was thinking about something important.

This girl was none other than Seraphina, who succeeded Cassian as one of the new Four Heavenly Kings of Laume after his untimely death.

She not only has a stunning appearance, but also possesses strong strength and unique charm.

But because of her lack of experience and youth, Seraphina was not even given a rank in the final team.

"Chinese Team 2? How can a team 2 make it to the finals?"

Gula said with a look of surprise on his face, and it was obvious that he had not carefully checked the list of participating teams.

"That's right. There are a total of 20 teams participating in the finals, and there are only two second teams. One is the Chinese second team, and the other is the German second team."

Kane casually explained to his teammates, then his eyes quickly turned to Seraphina and continued:

"Don't worry about it, just treat our Pokémon."

Seraphina nodded obediently, then directed her Pixie to use Life Drops and Healing Waves to heal the Pokémon of her other teammates.

Also, because she was hastily selected to make up the numbers, her strength is still somewhat behind that of other kings.

Because of this, Kane only let her be responsible for logistical support and not directly participate in the battle.

The disheveled Elisa rode the scarred Tanabata Bluebird and returned here with difficulty.

Her body was shaky, as if she might fall off the bird's back at any time.

Finally, when she reached her destination, she could no longer hold on and fell heavily to the ground.

"Get treatment quickly!"

Kane's face suddenly changed when he saw this, and he shouted orders to Seraphina anxiously.

Seraphina did not dare to delay and immediately walked forward with Picosi.

Picosi quickly cast a healing wave, sending a steady stream of warm energy into Eliza's body.

Kane hurriedly helped Eliza up and asked with concern: "What's the situation now?"

Eliza's complexion gradually improved under Picosi's treatment. She panted and answered:

"Brother... the five teams we arranged to attack China were all wiped out... I was just secretly observing from the side, but I was still discovered and almost couldn't come back..."

Kane frowned and asked, "What happened next? Didn't China suffer any losses?"

Eliza hesitated for a moment, then said:

"Right before Ruan Tianli's Blaziken defeated a Snow Demon Girl, it was hit by the Snow Demon Girl's skill, and they both died..."

Upon hearing the news, Kane's eyes suddenly lit up, a look of joy appeared on his face, and he said loudly: "Good!"

One of their four kings was a recent recruit and is relatively weak. He is definitely no match for the Chinese team in a head-on confrontation.

What's more, this year's competition rules are more favorable to China, which puts them at a disadvantage in the competition.

Therefore, Kane has been leading the team to adopt a strategy of avoiding battle, or to be more precise, to avoid direct confrontation with the Chinese team as much as possible.

Most of the game time has passed. As long as they can ensure that no Pokémon in their team loses its combat capability, they will be able to win according to the rules of the game.

Although this approach is a bit frustrating, it is currently the safest method.

"The German team was also eliminated." Gula said in surprise, looking at the big screen.

"Their three sacred beasts were all eliminated? By whom?"

Eliza's wounds were finally healed, and she stood up from Kane's arms reluctantly.

She put the Tanabata Bluebird that had just been healed by Pixie back into the Poké Ball, let it rest, and then released another Ninetales in the form of an island.

"Oh, brother, there is one more thing."

Eliza suddenly remembered something.

"whats the matter?"

"That Lin Guochang doesn't seem to be with anyone else."

Eliza thought for a moment and said, "I think Germany's team was probably eliminated by him."

Hearing the news, Kane frowned tightly, and his heart was filled with doubts and worries.

However, in sharp contrast to him, Gula's eyes became brighter and brighter, as if he saw the dawn of victory.

"That is to say, one person from Huaxia has left the team. If we can eliminate him, we will have the advantage in numbers. As long as the time is up, victory will definitely belong to us! Kane, don't hesitate any more, let's go!"

Gula said excitedly, his voice revealing an impatience.

Kane hesitated a little. He was not a rash person.

Although the opportunity seemed tempting, he was well aware of the risks.

After all, it is not an easy task to eliminate Lin Guochang without causing any losses to his own side.

"But, isn't this too risky?"

Kane asked hesitantly, his eyes falling on Gula, as if seeking some support and encouragement.

Gula was not affected by Kane's hesitation. He continued to persuade:

"How can you guarantee that we can always avoid the Chinese team? If we continue to hesitate, the possibility of failure will become greater and greater. Sometimes, decisiveness is the key to victory!"

No one else spoke. They just looked at Kane silently, waiting for him to make a decision.

The whole scene fell into a tense silence, with only Gula's words echoing in the air.

Finally, Kane gritted his teeth and made up his mind.

He took a deep breath, then said to Seraphina, "Okay, Seraphina, release your Miss Gothic and let its super powers help me find that person."
