Chapter 283 Zhang Zengsong's Visit
Chapter 283 Zhang Zengsong's Visit
Qi Hao strode towards the outskirts of the city. The time had come; he could no longer sit idly by and wait for his doom.
Instead of waiting here idly, we should launch a frontal attack.
However, after taking only a few steps, he caught a glimpse of Supervillain lurking in the corner of his eye.
"Xue Luoyan's spirit? What's it doing here?" Qi Hao asked curiously. Xue Luoyan hadn't come here for the past two months, but no matter what, he was the eldest brother.
Xue Luoyan is not an elf, and the Yire Tongxin Network cannot connect to him, so Qi Hao's worries are not unfounded.
That's how people are; they get anxious when they lose control of something.
Qi Hao approached the lurking supervillain, intending to ask it a question.
However, things were not as Qi Hao had imagined. Supervillain was not lurking there; rather, the entire Elf was paralyzed there!
Half of its outer layer melted, revealing a semi-mechanical core that was already exhaling more than it was inhaling.
"Damn it! How long have you been crouching here with such serious injuries?!" Qi Hao covered his head.
That doesn't make sense! You're already at the door, a few more steps won't make a difference, right? Why not just come in directly? Why crawl around in the dark corner?
However, Supervillain was holding up something that looked like a belt, and kept shouting the same sentence...
"Bad... (Save... save Xue Luoyan... save... save...)"
"Calm down, let's talk this out, and tell me what happened."
Qi Hao took the belt, took out the healing spray from the bracelet to treat himself temporarily, and used the system that had been relegated to the sidelines for a long time.
Improved 3D Maneuver Gear (Partially Damaged)
Original owner: Xue Luoyan
Summary: Don't bother looking at it, this thing has a fixed power output. Even if you fixed it, it won't be as fast as you. But at least it doesn't move using a grappling hook.
Qi Hao observed quickly and didn't say much, deciding to take Supervillain back first.
He had no choice but to change the elves' original plan of meeting at the destination to having them set off first, and only had Aren come to find him in advance.
There's no way around it; anyone who uses the A-Ren brand Wang Kai weapon knows how powerful it is. Of course, Qi Hao would absolutely not allow it.
Qihao lifted up Superstar and quickly returned to the Water Gym.
However, to Qi Hao's surprise, there was a guy here who made Qi Hao uncomfortable just by being there.
Zhang Zengsong is 13.
But he was still a big shot, and Grandma Ouyang didn't know much about Zhang Zengsong. Since his arrival was so sudden, she didn't offer him any hospitality.
"What are you doing here? Never mind, Grandma Ouyang, could you please take care of Supervillain? This half of the machine should be your area of expertise."
Grandma Ouyang didn't refuse. She casually took out her toolbox, and Galaxy Action gave the most direct answer: "Biotechnology? That's a bit of a stretch, but keeping someone half-dead isn't difficult."
When Zhang Zengsong saw Qi Hao, a hint of surprise flashed in his eyes, but he quickly regained his composure.
“I came here to find you,” Zhang Zengsong said calmly.
"Looking for me?" Qi Hao asked, somewhat puzzled. "Is there something you can't say over the phone?"
“It’s hard to explain over the phone.” Zhang Zengsong walked up to Qi Hao and handed him a document. “This is the latest intelligence. ‘They’ need you.”
Qi Hao took the document, glanced at it, and a surge of anger welled up inside him.
Heatran and Ancient Jade Fish wreaked havoc, and more importantly, many people witnessed a fire-type Pokémon rushing towards the area with great momentum.
"Why me again? You suddenly appeared just to tell me this? I really wouldn't mind beating you up and throwing you out!" Qi Hao said angrily.
“Because you are currently the strongest trainer,” Zhang Zengsong said. “And you’re not the only one.”
"Hmph!" Qi Hao sneered, "You think you can just use me like this?"
“You will definitely go. You are never one to sit idly by, especially since your elf is currently fighting on the front lines.” Zhang Zengsong’s tone remained completely calm throughout.
Qi Hao gritted his teeth and grabbed Zhang Zengsong by the collar: "You make it sound so easy! Haven't you thought about how many people and elves will be harmed?"
“Really? That’s a real shame. But you know, if it weren’t for you, the lives of those civilians would have nothing to do with me! I wouldn’t care at all! You’ve always known I’m a very selfish person.”
Zhang Zengsong understood from beginning to end that even though his performance was perfect, Qi Hao had spent several years with him.
But Qi Hao never considered himself a good person. Atonement was just wishful thinking on his part. Qi Hao had no right to forgive him on behalf of the hurt elves.
In fact, the main reason Zhang Zengsong survived was because of his superb acting skills and his genuine illness, which fooled Qi Hao.
Qi Hao was too young, too soft-hearted, and still wanted to obey the law back then. If it were the Qi Hao who has now been freed from the evil of the world, Zhang Zengsong wouldn't have survived.
“Alright, I’ll go, but I have one condition,” Qi Hao said.
"What conditions?" Zhang Zengsong asked in return, as Qi Hao rarely mentioned conditions to him.
"I need to know Xue Luoyan's whereabouts," Qi Hao said. "His Pokémon is so badly injured; he must be in danger. I need to ensure his safety."
Zhang Zengsong hesitated for a moment, unsure whether Xue Luoyan's whereabouts had been recorded, but finally nodded.
"I will do my best to search for Xue Luoyan's whereabouts," Zhang Zengsong said. "You should also set off soon."
Qi Hao glanced at the document in his hand, a fierce glint in his eyes. What's meant to happen will happen.
Seeing this, Zhang Zengsong turned his attention to Bai Yu and the divine deer.
"So, Elite Four member, now that all your Poké Balls are locked, you're short on battle power, so..."
"Alright, Bai Yu will follow you. I'll go. I'll live or die. Just make sure he survives." The divine deer took both swords from Bai Yu's waist.
Well, looking at it this way, it really is a bit of a rogue act. It's like playing a video game; you can die and be reborn with Bai Yu. Unfortunately, Bai Yu is a civil official when he's not fused with Bai Yu, so he really has no combat power at all.
But this is what a trainer is like; none of the people present are normal, which makes Bai Yu's true form seem rather weak.
On the side of Sidora, in the distance, Ma Ling'er was watching from afar with a strange two-headed creature.
Bina, standing to the side, looked at the ashes of the land with a strange smile: "Heh, yeah."
"Why is smiling considered happiness? Are you living in too much pain?" the bizarre, two-headed figure murmured.
If Qi Hao were here, he would easily recognize Qin Ni's voice.
“We’re just master and apprentice, you’ve gone a bit too far.” Bina stopped giggling.
Someone who used to be so funny has quietly passed away. Who could it be? It's really hard to guess.
"Let's end the small talk here. Locking the Poké Ball won't affect my battle power much. A Poké Ball with a Pendulum Scale set can still be used even when locked, but it loses tactical flexibility."
"Hehehe." Bang-headed clown stood behind Ma Ling'er, holding a scythe. His level had returned to 70, the level he had when he first met Qi Hao, but he seemed to have hit a bottleneck.
"Poké Balls? Sorry, there aren't any in my parallel world, so I released them all a long time ago. Guess when the band will appear? Hehehehe." Qin Ni gave everyone a surprise, as all the Poké Balls on his body were empty.
A figure wearing a pure black mask and gloves appeared beside Bina; it was Gallade from Bina's team.
He was carrying a huge, somewhat exaggerated mechanical greatsword, and muttered under his breath, "One thing at a time. Although we might become comrades in the future, I still inexplicably dislike this brat."
Bina chuckled and said, "Roland, don't be in such a hurry. Things might get very interesting later."
(This is the roulette wheel heavy industry. The reason why I hate Qin Ni is because he is a pianist. For those who don't understand, let me describe it as—in the original work, there is a grudge of killing his wife.)
