Elves: Angler's Rainy Day Team

Chapter 585, Team Building

"Hahaha," Yu Hai laughed, and Luo Yan also laughed.

Luo Yan had long known about his boss's bad taste. When he followed him in the beginning, he found that many things could not be examined in detail. Once examined in detail, he would discover that his boss did not seem to be a top trainer.

But he didn't dare to underestimate the boss at all, because of Darkrai, he firmly believed in the boss's words. After all, he could subdue Darkrai without becoming a king, but if he became a king, he would probably go to heaven.

So he had no doubts about Yu Hai. He did whatever Yu Hai asked him to do. He would teach the kid Yu Hai found if he could. If he himself didn't know how to do it, then there was nothing he could do.

As everyone started talking, the atmosphere in the car became much more relaxed, and the three of them chatted and laughed as they arrived at Luoyan's villa, where many people were already waiting to greet them.

As soon as he got off the car, he saw Ah Man with a dark complexion, Xiao Shun was also there, the pickpocket Keita was also there, as well as Luo Yan's follower Dashi, and Ah Xiang who was forced to get on the boat were all there.

Including the three people in the car, there are eight people in total, including him, Luo Yan, and Xiao Ming.

"Brother Hai, why are you here?" Xiao Shun was a little surprised. Who would have thought that Yu Hai would come here.

"Hey, Xiaoshun, why are you here?" Yu Hai was also very curious. Why did this kid come here instead of going back to Liugan Island?

"Brother Hai, my Pokémon are all short of evolution stones to evolve, so I came to Brother Luoyan to find a way," Xiao Shun explained the reason and returned with Haoji on a plane. Haoji had the support of his family, and everything went smoothly for him.

He was miserable as he could only get a medium quality evolution stone. He knew that this was the limit of what the Liugan Gym could give and he did not blame the Liugan Gym.

Koji wanted to give him the evolution stone secretly, but he didn't dare to accept it. After all, it was a high-level evolution stone, and one was worth tens of millions.

Later, in order to find evolution stones, he asked the owner of the gym for leave so that he could go out and collect evolution stones, and then he came to find Luoyan.

"Very good, you will find the evolution stone," Ukai patted Xiaoshun and looked at Aman and Keita, both of whom were very excited to see him.

"Brother Hai," the two called Yu Hai in unison.

Yu Hai patted their shoulders one by one, encouraged them, then looked at Xiao Ming and introduced them to everyone: "This is Xiao Ming, we are all family from now on..."

"Luoyan, is dinner ready? Let's eat and talk, and then we can organize a friendly match in the evening so that everyone can get to know each other," Yu Hai turned around and looked at Luoyan, not knowing whether dinner was ready or not.

"Boss, dinner is ready. I'll ask the hotel to deliver it right away," Luo Yan ordered food from the hotel in advance and asked the hotel to deliver it before going to pick up Yu Hai.

"Brother Yan, it has been delivered," Ah Man spoke quickly, reminding Luo Yan that the food had arrived.

“When the food arrives, let’s eat and chat,” Yu Hai waved his hand to tell everyone to stop standing and go into the villa.

Eight people entered the villa. These people were his first batch of team members. Xiaoying couldn't come because she was in Guan, and Aping couldn't come because he was in the Rocket Team. This was the only way for now. I'll introduce everyone to each other when I have time. Now I have to give up.

As he sat at the head of the long table, Xiaoshun and Luoyan sat on the left and right of the lower seat respectively. The remaining Axiang and Dashi sat below Luoyan, and Aman, Keita and Xiaoming sat below Xiaoshun.

"This is our first dinner together. Let's eat and drink well, get to know each other, and get along well. Let's begin the party!"

Ding-dong--

Yu Hai casually said some opening remarks, then stood up and raised his glass. Everyone also stood up and raised their glasses to each other. The glasses collided with each other, making a crisp sound, announcing the start of the banquet.

Looking at everyone picking up their chopsticks, Yu Haifei was a little tired after a whole day, but he still finished the dinner with everyone with a smile on his face. Everyone was chatting with each other at the table. The older ones drank wine, and the younger ones drank juice. After a while, everyone became familiar with each other.

In fact, everyone was familiar with each other, except Xiao Ming, who came here for the first time and had some difficulty adapting. In the end, it was the naive Ah Man who gained Xiao Ming's trust.

Ah Man looks rough and stupid, but he is actually meticulous. He is only being ruthless to his own people. This kid from the fishing village is not without ruthlessness, otherwise how could he hang out with this group of ruthless guys, all of whom have killed people.

As dinner was over, the next session began with friendly matches, which were also intended to enhance everyone’s understanding of each other.

Since it was a friendly match, to celebrate the organization's first team-building event, and it was hosted by him, the leader of the organization, how could there not be a prize?

There were eight of them, so he and Luo Yan would not join in, leaving the opportunity to the youngsters...

Then, he took out six senior-level props from his backpack. The market price of each senior-level prop was at least five million. Props with rare attributes were even more expensive, possibly seven or eight million, such as the Dragon's Fang he took out.

In addition to the Dragon's Fang, there are also mysterious water drops, miracle seeds, hard stones, charcoal, poison needles, six senior-level props, with a market value of at least 30 million. This is the gift he gave to these children.

It was also during team building that he demonstrated his financial strength as the boss, taking out 30 million without blinking an eye. This was enough to let everyone see his courage and stabilize the thoughts of these younger brothers.

The elves who can reach the potential of being a king are the hidden benefits of the organization, which he deliberately concealed and only a few people knew about. However, the senior-level props are real benefits, which are right in front of them and everyone has a share.

He did not lose the props just because he lost, but such benefits only come once, and he will need to compete in the future.

"Props, all of them are advanced-level props," Luo Yan saw the props that Yu Hai took out, each of which was shining with halos of different colors, and secretly sighed at the boss's wealth.

Even if he took out so many props, he would still feel the pain for a while. After all, there were two teams of elves that needed to be trained, and the 200 million funds he brought with him were already stretched to the limit, and he was very short of money.

"Ayan, let's not join in the fun and leave the opportunity to the young people..."

Yu Hai's words made Luo Yan roll his eyes. What do you mean by young people? He is only in his twenties, not old.

And the eldest brother was very young, so what he said was a bit too old-fashioned, but he couldn't refute it. It was quite embarrassing for a man in his twenties to snatch props from a group of teenagers.

This is probably the pattern. Luo Yan can only see revenge and his secret crush, but he can see further and has more things to consider.

After placing the props on the table one by one, Yu Hai looked over at the six excited people. After all, these were senior-level props worth five million, and each of them only had one or two. But everyone was excited to get them for free, especially Ah Man, Keita, and Xiao Shun. These little guys were too poor.

Seeing everyone's eager eyes, he immediately announced in a deep voice: "These props are the prizes for the first friendly match. You will form a group of two and draw lots. The winner will advance to the next round. The final winner will have priority in choosing props..."

"The value of these items is self-evident, especially the Dragon's Fang, which is far more valuable than the other items. The final winner will have the first choice, and the rest of the people will choose items based on their ranking..."

"Brother Hai, what are the rules of the competition? How many elves can I use?"

"Don't be anxious," Yu Hai looked at Xiao Shun. This guy probably wanted to use high-level evolution stones to evolve elves. This is a gap of tens of millions, so he must be short of money.

Then, he continued to explain: "You can only use one elf in each game. Three of you will advance. The final draw will determine who will have a bye. The elves can be replaced. There is only one win or loss. Do you understand?"

"I understand," the six people said in unison and looked at each other. Now they are all opponents.

"Ayan, let them draw lots," Yu Hai sat on a recliner and saw Luo Yan take out a cardboard box and write two ones, two twos, and two threes on six pieces of white paper. The ones who drew the numbers would fight each other. Then six people came up one after another to take the paper balls from the cardboard box, and the ones who drew the first numbers would fight each other.

The ones who drew the first game were Xiao Ming and A Xiang, who were strangers to each other.

However, since they have met each other, they have to fight each other. They need to be familiar with each other's strength and have a sense of propriety in their future interactions. After all, strength is what matters here.

Xiao Ming also takes this battle very seriously. After all, it is the Dragon's Fang, which can be sold for seven or eight million, and he is also short of money!

Yu Hai was amused when he saw the two of them taking out the Poké Balls and standing in the open space ready to go.

He is very clear about Xiao Ming's strength. He is considered very strong among this group of people. After all, their strength is relatively evenly distributed. A team of them are all senior elves, unlike A'man who is too unbalanced in his studies.

"Go, Gotha Duck..."

"Go ahead, Magneto 3-in-1..."

"Haha, I guessed it right," Xiao Ming laughed in his heart when he saw Goduck. Although he didn't know the other party, there were many water-type Pokémons in the Orange Islands. He knew that throwing an Pokémon would be the right thing. He had a 70% chance of guessing correctly, and that was the electric-type Pokémon.

Facing the three-in-one electric elf Magneto, Xiang's face darkened and he thought to himself that he had suffered a huge loss!
However, his Golduck is his strongest trump card, and it is not impossible for him to defeat a three-in-one Magneto.

Since there was no referee for the match, Luo Yan volunteered to be the referee. He marked out an open space in the villa yard and shouted to the two men, "The match begins..."

"Magneton three-in-one, one hundred thousand volts..."

"Gotha Duck, dig a hole..."

As the two began to give orders, the battle immediately became tense. Magneto really didn't have any better solution and could only fly up and observe the surroundings.

Axiang also knew that it was not a good idea to keep hiding, but he didn't know how to attack Magnetron. Golduck's telekinesis could resist Magnetron, and its water-based moves also doubled the damage, making it difficult to fight.

Since Gotha Duck didn't come out, Xiao Ming suddenly thought of a way to deal with Gotha Duck, which is metal sound.

Let the three-in-one Magneto emit a harsh metallic sound towards the cave entrance. The terrain of the cave entrance intensifies the metallic sound, which echoes underground for a long time and becomes increasingly stronger, making the Golduck underground feel like it has a magic sound in its ears. If it doesn't come out, it will definitely roll its eyes.

Afterwards, Axiang let Golduck come out, and Xiao Ming immediately let Magneto move away. Golduck, which had just emerged from the ground, felt a little dizzy and did not attack Magneto immediately. A bolt of lightning struck from the sky, and Golduck twitched all over instantly.

As Magneto increased the voltage and continuously output electricity, it defeated Golduck, which rolled its eyes and fainted.

"Magneton wins, next is the second group..."

The second group was A'man and Dashi. They quickly came to an open area and prepared the Poké Balls in their hands.

Since both of them were club employees and often lived together, they were very familiar with each other. At Luoyan's shout, Ah Man and Dashi threw the Poké Ball together.

"Go ahead, Rumblestone..."

"Go, Gyarados..."

Facing Dashi, who specializes in Ground and Rock-type Pokémon, Ah Man, who only has Water-type Pokémon, sent out Gyarados.

Not every rock-type Pokémon is not afraid of water. Most of them are. What's more, there is four times the restraint. There was no suspense in this battle, and A'man won in the end.

Then it was... the third group, with only Keita and Xiaoshun left...

Xiao Shun has only been here for a few days and is not familiar with Keita, but he has seen Keita train Pokémon. All of his opponents' Pokémon are Flying-type Pokémon, while most of his Pokémon are Grass-type Pokémon, which are a natural counter to his Grass-type Pokémon.

As the two came on the field, they threw the Poké Balls in their hands.

"Go ahead, Pidgeot..."

"Go, Pidgeot..."

"Ooh," Yu Hai saw two Flying-type Pokémons and looked at them in surprise. If he remembered correctly, he had helped to capture the two little guys' Flying-type Pokémons.

However, Xiaoshun conquered the panda first and Keita conquered the panda later. Unexpectedly, Xiaoshun's Pidgeot evolved. It was still Pidgeot at the Quartz Conference before.

Since Xiao Shun's Pidgeot has evolved, the battle between Pidgeot and Pidgeot is also a foregone conclusion. Pidgeot will definitely not be able to beat Pidgeot, after all, its tonnage and size are there.

As he expected, Pidgeot lost and Pidgeot won in the end.

The situation is now clear...

Xiao Ming, A Man and Xiao Shun are competing for the first, second and third places.

Axiang, Oishi, and Keita compete for fourth, fifth, and sixth places.

In the last draw, Xiao Ming drew a number, Xiao Shun also drew a number, and A Man was lucky enough to have a bye.

Xiao Ming understood Xiao Shun well. After all, he had collected intelligence about his elves at the Quartz Conference.

In addition to Gyarados and Pidgeot, the opponent also has a Forest Lizard, which should have evolved. The remaining Grass-type Pokémon are not a concern because there are no evolution stones. According to the information I just heard, Xiao Shun is likely to use Gyarados and Lizardking.

Xiao Shun and Xiao Ming were standing in an open space. Both knew that the other had participated in the Quartz Conference. Xiao Shun also had information about Xiao Ming. Xiao Shun knew that Xiao Ming's trump card was a Sandslash. If the other party sent out a Sandslash, the battle would be easier.

"Go, Lizard King..."

"Go ahead, Scyther..."

The reason why Xiao Ming chose Scyther was, firstly, for safety reasons, and secondly, Sandslash was restrained by Gyarados and Lizardlord and could not be used at all. In the end, after he guessed everything, Xiao Shun really used Lizardlord.

Xiao Shun chose Lizard King because Xiao Ming is more restrained by the Grass type. He used the three-in-one Magneto once and might not use it again, so he decided to take a gamble.

In the end, he lost the bet. The current situation was actually very disadvantageous to him. The Grass-type Lizard King had four times the resistance to Scyther, while Scyther's Flying and Bug-types had two times the restraint on the Lizard King. It was difficult for him to fight...
