Pokémon cross over into the real world

Most secret realms are in a naturally wild state. Only some clans, protected by their own lands, will establish gathering places within them. However, these are generally small, similar to villages with only a few buildings. There are also places like Wang Qiyi's Tanghe Secret Realm, which has a scientific research base building, but the rest of the area is essentially wild.

But the Four Islands Secret Realm is different. Modern towns exist on all four islands, each home to tens of thousands of people, almost all of whom are trainers. The secret realm also offers tourism opportunities, attracting over 800 million visitors annually and generating over 500 billion Alliance Coins in revenue.

Therefore, being able to reside on the island is equivalent to obtaining a high-paying job. However, the right to reside on the island is not permanent and requires the approval of the International Alliance. Only those who have made outstanding contributions to the International Alliance can obtain island residency rights. This rule also applies to many island secrets controlled by the International Elf Alliance.

It's not like a country, but more like a company's employee dormitory. Once fired, you have to move out of the secret realm and give the right of residence to someone else. Therefore, the salary for working for the International Pokémon League is very high. They also rely on this method to make some powerful trainers give up their home country's identity and work for the International League.

The Rape Crown King and Wang Qiyi soon arrived at the small town of Ula'ula Island. The streets were bustling, and there were no private cars, only public buses or rides on Pokémons. It was a place where environmentalism was taken to the extreme. Men and women in swimsuits and trunks played on the beach. An ice cream vendor, Dodo Bing, was shaping ice cream cones on the street, while a group of children on bicycles lined up to buy theirs.

A gust of wind blew, and a little boy's ice cream was blown to the ground. The boy was about to burst into tears when he saw a black horse standing in front of him with two people riding on its back. One of them handed a few large bills to the owner of the ice cream cart and said, "I'll pay for his ice cream, and the rest is my treat. Give everyone here an ice cream."

The speaker was, of course, the wealthy Wang Qiyi. The crowd lining up by the ice cream truck cheered. You know, the Four Islands Secret Land is incredibly expensive. An ice cream cone costs 20 Alliance Coins, which converts to about 170 Yuan in Dragon Coins. At 170 Yuan, it's definitely not something you can't afford. But now, an even richer guy has arrived, and Prince Wang is the one footing the bill.

"Wow, big brother, your mount is so handsome! I've never seen a Pokémon like it before. What's it called?" the little boy exclaimed in admiration as he stroked Wang Qiyi's ghost horse. But as he touched the horse, a chill ran through his heart, and an inexplicable fear rose from his heart. He quickly withdrew his hand, not daring to touch it again. This was the inherently terrifying nature of ghost Pokémon.

The boy's question piqued the curiosity of those around him, who flocked to watch. They realized they had never seen such a equine spirit before, with some even claiming it wasn't a spirit at all, just an ordinary black horse. Everyone chatted non-stop, and of course, the tourists were from all over the world, speaking in a cacophony of languages ​​that Wang Qiyi couldn't understand.

He could only ask in English, the universal language of the world: "I'm treating everyone to ice cream. I just want to know where this person named Francis is. Can anyone tell me?"

The young man selling ice cream was startled and leaned out of the ice cream cart: "What do you want from Francis?"

"you know?"

"I don't know if the Francis you're talking about is the one I know."

Wang Qiyi opened his phone and clicked on the trial guidance message, which read: "Find the Ice and Fire Master Francis who lives on Melemele Island, challenge him, and obtain the Ice and Fire Certification from him. Do you know this person?"

"Yes, he is my cousin, Francis, the Master of Ice and Fire." said the ice cream boy.

"That's great, take me to find him quickly."

"You're here to take part in the trials on the island, right? There's been a lot of trainers taking part lately, but the pass rate isn't high. Only about one out of every ten succeeds. I'm talking about one who actually meets the island master, and half the number who gets recognized by the master." The ice cream guy said with a smile, "And you're unlucky to have picked my cousin for your trial. He's been picked five times, and no one has ever received the Ice and Fire certification from him."

"Don't brag to me here. I'm in a hurry. Besides your brother, I have three other challenges to face. I'd better finish them all in one day and kill the island owner and the overlord before nightfall. My elves have many attributes and a wide range of them. I need a lot of Z-pure crystals."

Wang Qiyi's Versailles speech had the ice cream guy completely stunned. He was boasting too much. Judging from his appearance, he was still a young man, perhaps under 20. Even if he was a genius, he was only a young master. Master level was just average in the Four Islands Secret Realm. Meanwhile, his cousin, Master Ice and Fire, was a peak master.

"Either you go find him yourself, or you wait for me and I'll take you there after I finish selling the ice cream."

"All the ice cream sold out? How much do you have left?"

"We'll probably sell out in about the morning. Around noon, when it gets hot, the tourists on the beach will get tired and come over. That's when business is best and we'll sell out in no time."

"Wait until noon? How much money can you make after selling them all?"

"I can still make at least 300 more ice creams here. Each one costs 20 Alliance Coins, so I can sell them for at least 6000 Alliance Coins."

"Here are 7000 Alliance Coins. Count them yourself." Wang Qiyi pinched a stack of crumpled bills from his pocket and handed them to the ice cream man. Back in Dragon Country, he'd been accustomed to using Taobao for mobile payments, rarely using cash. Taobao wasn't yet popular abroad, so he'd exchanged a bunch of cash for the Four Islands Secret Realm. Without a wallet, he'd been stuffing his pockets full of money, and now that he'd spent it all, it would have been a relief.

The ice cream vendor was stunned. This time, he'd truly met a wealthy man. 7000 Alliance Coins could buy a ton of high-quality energy cubes. He couldn't even sell out his ice cream, and his daily income was only around 4000 Alliance Coins, even during peak tourist season. He'd only just opened his stall, and a wealthy man had already bought all his ice cream. He was truly lucky today.

Seeing the ice cream man's money-obsessed look, Wang Qiyi felt an inexplicable sense of satisfaction. This was the feeling of spending money lavishly. No wonder Jia Shao often treated the school to dinner, with various young masters footing the bill. Listening to his classmates eat his food and flatter him one by one, this feeling of reaching the maximum emotional value was indeed very satisfying.

"Okay, all the ice cream here is yours. Get in the car, I'll show you the way." The ice cream man immediately packed up his stall, and Wang Qiyi got on his ice cream cart. Wang Qiyi put Phantom Pony into his Poké Ball, and Rapunzel, transformed into Wang Lingqi, got on the cart with him. The electric car started, and it sped away quite quickly.

"Hey, isn't there no private car on the island, only buses? You have your own electric ice cream truck?"

The ice cream man flashed the license plate in front of the car. "Besides my cousin, my dad is also a Legendary Trainer. Our whole family serves the League and has made a lot of contributions. My Pokémon is the most useless, so the League allowed me to run some businesses on the island. As long as there are still members of my family serving the League, my family can live on the island. This is the case for everyone here. Maybe once I save enough money and have the resources to improve my Pokémon's combat power, I won't need to set up a stall anymore."

"By the way, I haven't asked your name yet. Be careful if you challenge my cousin. Since you gave me so much money, I'll give you some information..."

"No, it's okay. My name is Wang Qiyi, and I'm from the Dragon Country."

"Wang Qiyi?" The ice cream boy touched his chin. The name seemed familiar, but he couldn't remember it. He stopped thinking about it. His expression returned to normal and he smiled. "My name is Red. Are you so confident you can beat my cousin? You really don't need me to give you information? I won't charge you. I'll tell you for free."
