Pokémon: Forced to Become a Dragon Master at the Beginning

In the suburbs of the imperial capital, still in that dilapidated old house, it was late at night and the full moon was hanging high in the sky. The weather in the imperial capital in December was already extremely cold and there was a light snow in the sky. Fortunately, there was heating in the house, so it was warm.

Gong Ye Ranjin and Xu Xiu sat together, and opposite them sat the middle-aged man.

"It's been three and a half months. We checked all the names on the list and didn't find any useful clues." Xu Xiu's voice sounded, and he said to the middle-aged man: "Many people have seen the pot-shaped prop you mentioned, but no one knows who got it in the end, and some of the people on the list have been dead for decades. There is nothing we can do."

"No!" The middle-aged man's voice was a little hysterical, his eyes were red and bloodshot. He had been under great pressure in the past three and a half months, and he knew the terror of the person behind him better than anyone else.

Although that person always creates a perfect image in front of outsiders, the middle-aged man has seen that person's fierce look.

"You must help me find the whereabouts of that thing. You have already been paid! If you can't find it, I will have a hard time explaining it, and neither will you." The middle-aged man's breathing became rapid due to his anger. He looked at the two men while panting heavily. "After checking the people on the list, check their families, descendants, and future generations. We must find this pot."

At the end, the middle-aged man's voice suddenly rose, his tone filled with anger and a hint of arrogance.

Xu Xiu's eyes turned cold when he heard the middle-aged man's tone. He stared at the middle-aged man and said in a grim tone, "Are you ordering me?"

Xu Xiu stood up slowly. Even though he was nearly fifty years old, he was still tall and strong. "We have checked all the people on the list as you requested. This has wasted three months of our time. Our mission has been completed. We have been delayed in the capital for three months and we have our own things to do. If we check their families again, do you know how long it will take us? And we haven't received a single cent of the reward you mentioned."

"You have already checked once. You only need to check their families according to the list. This time it will be much faster. You can finish it in less than three months." The middle-aged man was also shocked by Xu Xiu's momentum and gradually regained his composure, but he was not afraid of Xu Xiu: "Besides, it is your Dawn Society's fault that you did not get the reward. We have told you the transportation route of the Round Land Shark's Pokémon Egg according to your request. The Round Land Shark's Pokémon Egg has also been taken away by your Dawn Society. Whether you get the reward or not, we have already paid the Dawn Society."

"You can just quit. You're destroying the reputation of your Aurora Society. It depends on what the Aurora Society behind you will think." The middle-aged man said with a hint of threat in his tone: "You are on the wanted list of the Pokémon Association. The reward is not low. If you offend the Aurora Society again, you will have no place on either side."

"boom!"

Xu Xiu's attack came without any warning. He was in front of the middle-aged man in the blink of an eye. He grabbed his collar tightly with one hand and pushed the middle-aged man against the wall with a muffled sound.

"Are you threatening me?" Xu Xiu's eyes were filled with undisguised murderous intent. Xu Xiu's reputation as a vicious person made the middle-aged man less imposing.

"Cough cough." The middle-aged man felt that breathing became difficult, his face flushed, and he coughed rapidly: "Xu Xiu, I am not threatening you, I am talking to you rationally."

Xu Xiu looked at the middle-aged man, and after a few breaths, he let go of his hand and let the middle-aged man go: "If you want us to continue to help you, you can, but you have to provide us with something."

"Ahem, what do you want?" The middle-aged man who suffered a loss looked at Xu Xiu with a flickering gaze, but he did not rush to refuse: "Xu Xiu, I know you are also a talent. You can train such a powerful Bangilas in three years, but you must not go too far. If you offend the person behind me, the efforts to track you down will not be as easy as they are now. And by the way, I have a piece of news for you. Wei Yeqin has become a special investigator of the alliance. He is responsible for tracking down your whereabouts. Be careful."

"Wei Yeqin." Xu Xiu muttered the name, not knowing what he was thinking.

"Wei Yeqin is very strong. Even though he only has one Pokémon, don't underestimate him. In a 1v1 situation, even the Southwest region's King Tan Yongsen was no match for him even when he used his Z-Move." The middle-aged man said, "You are definitely not his opponent."

"I see." Xu Xiu paused here, looked at the middle-aged man, and slowly said: "We can continue to help you investigate, but we need you to do us a favor."

"What's the deal?"

"I want the guard list and architectural design drawings of the two secret realms around the imperial capital, as well as a one-month rotation schedule." Xu Xiu said calmly, "This request should be simple for you. If you agree, we promise to continue to help you find the thing you want, but it will take at most three months. If you still haven't found it within three months, we can't do anything."

"You guys want to attack the secret realm?" The middle-aged man was shocked when he heard Xu Xiu's conditions. Cold sweat broke out on his forehead, but he was excited afterwards: "Is it your idea or the Dawn Society's idea?"

"What do you think?" Xu Xiu said, "There are four or five king-level trainers in a secret realm, and the support came very quickly. Do you think it's possible for just me and Miyano Ranjin?"

"I can't make the decision on this matter. I need to go back and report." The middle-aged man's mind was spinning, secretly guessing that if the Dawn Society really planned to attack the secret realm, there were only two secret realms near the imperial capital, the Dragon Secret Realm and the Ground Secret Realm. At this time, the Dragon Secret Realm without the Dragon King was undoubtedly the best choice for attack. The most important thing was that there were a large number of Quasi-God Pokémon in it! If the Dawn Society really succeeded, he might also be able to get a share of the pie and take down a Quasi-God Pokémon.

"Yes, but we have to do it as soon as possible." Xu Xiu said, "The Pokémon Association has controlled the Quasi-God Pokémon for too long. If the people behind you are interested, you can cooperate with us. We only grab the Pokémon eggs and leave. The chance of success is still very high."

"We'll consider it." The middle-aged man replied.

After Xu Xiu and Gong Ye Ranjin left, the two walked side by side on the road. Snowflakes fell on them and melted away. Gong Ye Ranjin couldn't help but ask in broken Chinese: "Who do you think is behind him?"

"I can't guess." Xu Xiu couldn't guess who was behind this middle-aged man, but he must have a lot of say in the alliance. Otherwise, he wouldn't be qualified to check the delivery route of the round shark spirit egg: "But he is definitely a person who is in a high position and very powerful."

"Then you dare to lie to them this time that the Dawn Society wants to attack the secret realm?" asked Miyano Ranjin.

"How can you say it's a lie?" Xu Xiu chuckled and said, "They are just greedy."

"Also, this time we are attacking the secret realm, there is still a chance of attacking other secret realms, but it is absolutely impossible to attack the dragon secret realm. Our target should be the ground secret realm."
