Pokémon: Thunder Shatters the Darkness

Wrapped in a towel and soaking in the pool, Yang Xiao rested his arms on the pebbles at the edge and looked at the Pokémon in front of him who were soaking in the pool with him with a smile.

Needless to say, Tan Shi was wearing a plastic raincoat, which isolated him from the hot spring while allowing him to enjoy the warmth.

It was now late at night, and after his muscles and bones were relaxed in the hot spring, he should take his Pokémon back to the house to sleep.

I have to say, the hot springs here are really good.

When staying here, Yang Xiao always has an illusion.

It seemed like every time he went out he would meet an old man, and after a conversation, the old man would give him a small elf egg.

Unfortunately, illusions are just illusions.

Even in the mixed bathing pool where Pokémon can be brought in, Yang Xiao never saw anyone else, which shows that the business here is indeed getting worse day by day.

"Huha."

In the pool, Wudao Master Xiong breathed a sigh of relief.

Hot water vapor drifted upward along its exposed shoulders, gradually forming a veil-like mist on the water surface, blocking people's vision.

The electric beast leaned lazily against the edge of the pool, imitating Yang Xiao's movements and scratching its belly leisurely.

Cheng Ran looked like a big brother.

The Marsupialos looked down at its cub floundering in the pool with a kind face, its hands hidden under its body to prevent it from suddenly drowning, which would have taken it by surprise.

Looking at this scene, the corners of Yang Xiao's mouth curled up again, and he tilted his neck to look at the ceiling which was densely packed with water droplets.

Leisurely, relaxing, and satisfying.

Sudden.

A noisy sound came from behind the door curtain, as if someone was pushing and arguing.

"Is it in there? It must be in there!"

"Hey, Brother Pei, what are you doing? Could it be that I made you unhappy with your washing here before? Otherwise, why would you destroy my place?"

"I'm not destroying the venue. I have something to do with him."

"This is really against the rules!"

"Come on, get an annual pass."

"But then again..."

The noisy sound slowly disappeared, and then there was a sound like someone counting money, and soon the boss said with a smile:

"Then you wash, I'll be busy first, call me if you need anything, I'll do my best."

"Okay, okay, okay... go ahead."

The words fell.

Footsteps gradually approached.

Yang Xiao raised his eyelids slightly, and a half-smile gradually appeared on his face.

Such a familiar voice.

It seems that it is just as he guessed in the hanging basket.

Wow!

Two figures stood up in the pool.

The Pokémon, led by Master Martial Bear, waved to the trainers who were looking over.

Don't panic, bro.

Then it brushed off the water droplets on its body, stepped on the edge of the pool, and with a little effort, its whole body broke out of the water.

Subsequently.

It shook its head and walked slowly forward with a disdainful look, leading the electric beast that was following closely behind it with an extremely domineering expression.

Let me see what’s going on!

Yang Xiao scratched his eyebrows with his fingertips and sighed helplessly.

Did you two forget his voice after you evolved?

boom!

The door was pulled open and the door curtain was pushed aside with one hand.

"Excuse me, my name is Pei Zhilang. My family is well-known in the scientific research community. I am nicknamed Jade-faced Young Master. My ancestral home is in the imperial capital. I have something to discuss with you..."

Before he finished speaking, his voice gradually rose.

In the hazy fog, the black and orange demons stood side by side.

The one on the left has a muscular build, sharp eyes, and looks down on people; the one on the right has a domineering face and his scarlet eyes are chilling.

There was a brief silence in the air.

next second.

There was a flurry of activity, followed by a sound of friction after slipping, and a Poké Ball suddenly fell to the ground and rolled all the way in front of Yang Xiao.

"Tutu dog, it's time to show your loyalty!"

The sound was sharp, piercing the sky.

boom!

The white light faded, and a white dog Pokémon fell straight into the water.

It held its paintbrush tail in one hand and used the other hand to greet Yang Xiao beside it with an increasingly surprised look.

Yang Xiao reached out and touched its head, whispering, "You too, long time no see!"

The atmosphere here is friendly, but not so friendly over there.

The fog continued to grow thicker, and was especially noticeable on Master Xiong and his companions, making this place look like a fairyland in heaven.

As if he didn't see the scene he imagined, after another silence, the familiar voice sounded again: "...Excuse me."

boom.

The door was closed tightly, as if it had never been opened.

Electabuzz curled his lips at this and was about to go back to take a bath.

The martial arts master Xiong who was beside him, after thinking for a while, suddenly pulled the door open and stretched out his strong and powerful arms.

"Hey! Hey! I'm not on the phone, really not, let me go, let me go..."

"Huh!"

The same surprised voice came.

After a hug, Wudao Master Bear grabbed the man's collar, turned around and ran towards the pool without hesitation, and jumped into it.

Wow!

In just a moment, Pei Zhilang was soaked in the pool along with his clothes in a daze.

Before he could come to his senses, someone beside him suddenly said:

"Old Pei, it's been a while since we last met. Your running skills haven't improved at all."

"you……"

Pei Zhilang turned his head abruptly, his eyes narrowed, then suddenly widened, his face full of joy at having survived a disaster: "Yang Xiao!"

"Haha."

Yang Xiao laughed loudly, showing his mockery:

"Let's not talk about the fact that you didn't recognize Master Wudao Bear. Your Tutu Dog is completely ineffective. Isn't that enough to make you think of something?"

"It's not that I didn't expect it, it's that I didn't dare to believe it."

Pei Zhilang stood up and swung across the pool towards Yang Xiao:

"There was too much fog. At first glance, I thought it was a rogue panda! As for the Tutu dog, there was no movement at all. I really thought some ruthless guy had pinned it down."

"If I don't run now, when will I run?"

"Rogue panda...haha."

Yang Xiao also stood up and hugged Pei Zhilang who was coming towards him, and said with a smile: "You are looking down on my trump card too much, long time no see."

"haven't seen you for a long time."

After the hug, Pei Zhilang naturally pushed away the Tutu dog next to Yang Xiao, sat over, and said happily: "So, the one who wants to enter [Vortex Fire Red Earth] is you?"

"Yes."

Yang Xiao splashed some water on his body.

Pei Zhilang was still carrying the cold wind from outside, and he felt unusually cold at first: "Because of some things, I have a little connection with an old man on the board of directors, and he agreed to this."

"Council? Yang Xiao, you can do it!"

Pei Zhilang put a hand on Yang Xiao's shoulder, ignoring the latter's pretended disdain, and continued: "We haven't seen each other for more than a month. What could have brought you together with the board of directors?"

In this regard.

Yang Xiao smiled slightly and just shook his head.

There's no need to tell your friends about the Tao Hai Gym incident and make them worry.

So he changed the subject: "Don't ask about such trivial matters. What are you doing here? You look like you are looking for trouble."

"Hi."

Pei Zhilang waved his hand and said, "I want to help you steal that half purple armor. If I don't come, I don't know where it will be transported to..."

There was a hint of emotion in Yang Xiao's smiling eyes.

"Thank you for your hard work, Lao Pei."

"Don't you call me Brother Pei?"

"Brother Pei."

Seeing Yang Xiao's serious expression, Pei Zhilang was stunned for a moment, then raised the corner of his mouth and said leisurely: "You are sensible."

"so……"

There was a pause.

Yang Xiao suddenly said, "It was really found in the [Vortex Fire Red Earth]."

"It's true."

Pei Zhilang has experienced his best friend's ability to foresee the future many times, but he is still surprised by it.

What kind of person would be so sensitive?

Pei Zhilang leaned forward and said, "We found it on the outskirts of an active volcano in the secret realm."

Hear the words.

Yang Xiao nodded slightly, his eyes deep.
