"Alright, the interview ends here. I have something else to attend to." Lu Li turned and left after speaking.
That female reporter had bad intentions; I should have known better than to accept her interview.
As a reporter, this woman is undoubtedly qualified, she understands the allure of journalism too well.
However...
Lu Li felt that this woman was a bit crazy, and he sincerely hoped that she would remain so foolish.
In this world with extraordinary powers, is it really okay for a reporter like you to be so arrogant?
After randomly hailing a taxi, Lu Li got in.
Lu Li squinted at the driver in the driver's seat, then stopped paying attention to him.
Just an ordinary middle-aged wage slave.
For some reason, Lu Li felt that this person was more like a wage slave punching in at a company than a taxi driver.
After returning to the hotel, Lu Li released the smallest Little Charizard.
After instructing Little Charizard not to play with fire, Lu Li released Milotic and placed it in the bathtub.
After doing all this, Lu Li began to cultivate.
There was nothing else to do during the competition.
Apart from cultivation, Lu Li couldn't think of any other leisure activities, especially since Lu Li didn't particularly like those activities.
After all, cultivating immortality is truly joyful.
As night quietly descended, Lu Li entered a deeper level of cultivation.
Lu Li, who was meditating and cultivating, withdrew from his practice.
"What's going on?"
Lu Li squinted and looked around, his eyes full of vigilance.
He had clearly felt a strange fluctuation just now, and this fluctuation was very peculiar.
This familiar fluctuation reminded Lu Li of when he faced the Annihilape.
Just as Lu Li activated his divine sense and prepared to scan his surroundings, he felt a fatal danger approaching.
Without hesitation, Lu Li quickly jumped off the bed.
"Boom!"
A dark shadow landed on the bed, and then the entire bed was instantly evaporated.
"Jie Jie~"
A villainous laugh rang out, and Lu Li finally saw the attacker.
It was a Ghost-type Pokémon.
"Haunter? And an Elite-level one!"
Without hesitation, Lu Li quickly used his divine sense to transmit a message to Milotic in the bathroom.
"Milotic, stop sleeping, there's an enemy!"
Instantly awakened, Milotic rushed out of the bathroom.
Looking at the dark shadow, Milotic didn't hesitate and fired a Hydro Pump directly at it.
Haunter was caught off guard and hit by Milotic's Hydro Pump, and the water bubble also pierced through the window of the room.
Haunter was blasted away by the water bubble.
However, Haunter could float, so it chose to escape after being blasted away.
"Too bad, it would have been better if it was another Pokémon." Lu Li thought helplessly.
This was the 23rd floor, if it had been another Pokémon, it would have died from the fall.
Coming to the window, Lu Li released Tropius from its Poké Ball.
"Tropius, chase after it!" Lu Li recalled Milotic and jumped onto Tropius's back.
At the same time, Lu Li fully activated his divine sense and locked onto Haunter.
The Haunter, whose sneak attack failed, chose to escape.
When Milotic hit it, Haunter realized that this attack had failed.
Haunter passed through layers of walls and found its trainer.
Seeing Haunter return, the middle-aged man excitedly asked, "How was it? Did it succeed?"
"Haunter~"
(It failed, and the enemy is chasing after us.)
Hearing this, the middle-aged man's expression changed.
"They actually dare to chase after us?" The middle-aged man exclaimed in disbelief.
You should be grateful you got your life back, and you still dare to chase after me? Are young people these days so headstrong?
"Haunter~"
(The enemy is strong, at least Elite-level.)
Middle-aged man: "..."
"Then what are we waiting for? Run!"
The middle-aged man quickly recalled Haunter with its Poké Ball and ran towards the taxi at the entrance of the alley.
Riding Tropius and closely following, Lu Li had already locked onto the middle-aged man.
Knowing the other party's appearance through his divine sense, Lu Li remembered the middle-aged man's identity.
"The taxi driver from the daytime? Why is this guy attacking me?" Lu Li wondered.
Lu Li was very certain that he hadn't offended anyone since he started his career, and even if he had, the other party had already gone to meet Yveltal.
Wait...
Lu Li suddenly remembered the news of the assassinations of those genius rookie trainers.
"This bastard, could he be one of those assassins?" Thinking of this, Lu Li's expression turned ugly.
He didn't expect to be targeted so quickly.
I absolutely can't let this person go!
With this thought, Lu Li's face hardened, and he gritted his teeth and said, "Tropius! Fly over and ram him to death!"
Now that he had confirmed that the other party was an enemy, he should show no mercy.
Just getting into the taxi and preparing to start the car, the middle-aged man's face changed when he saw Tropius in the rearview mirror.
Without hesitation, the middle-aged man quickly jumped out of the car.
"Rumble!"
The taxi was instantly smashed into scrap metal.
The middle-aged man, who had luckily escaped the same fate as the taxi, looked at Lu Li in horror.
This guy was definitely trying to take his life.
But the problem is, how can a trainer who hasn't seen blood be so brutal?
You have to know that in the information he collected, this young man was an ordinary person, a genius teenager who had never seen blood in his life.
Lu Li, whose attack had failed, continued to command, "Tropius! Magical Leaf."
Looking at the Magical Leaves coming towards him, the middle-aged man quickly released his Pokémon.
With his mortal body's physical fitness, if he was really hit by these Magical Leaves, he would be torn to shreds.
The middle-aged man wasn't as ruthless as this young man; he didn't believe that this young man wouldn't know the damage Magical Leaf could do to humans.
"Sableye, use Protect!"
"Haunter, use Shadow Ball to counterattack!"
"Lampent, use Haze."
The middle-aged man reacted quickly, first having Sableye block Tropius's Magical Leaf, and then ordering Haunter to counterattack with Shadow Ball.
As for the last Lampent, Haze was used for retreat.
The dirty fog instantly spread, the middle-aged man had already put on a gas mask, and then he recalled his three Pokémon and turned to leave.
You have to know that this is Nan Du City, the capital of the southern region, and also the most prosperous city in the southern region.
Fighting Lu Li in this place, the only thing waiting for him was death.
Haze has another name, called Poison Gas.
After using his divine sense to shield himself from the surrounding Poison Gas, Lu Li continued to direct Tropius to pursue.
You think you can run away by releasing some smoke?
Do you really think this is a movie!
Do you know what mental lock-on is!
The highly flying Tropius continued to chase according to Lu Li's command, in less than a minute, Tropius caught up with the middle-aged man.
"Magical Leaf!" Lu Li continued to command.
Hearing the voice from behind that sounded like a ghost from hell, the middle-aged man's face turned green.
"Damn it! How did this guy lock onto me?" The middle-aged man thought in horror.
There was no way, in order not to be torn to shreds, he could only bite the bullet and counterattack.
After blocking Lu Li's attack, the middle-aged man said with exceptional sincerity, "There's been a misunderstanding between us, how about letting me go?"
"Scouting during the day and attacking at night, and you're telling me it's a misunderstanding?" Lu Li was almost amused.
The middle-aged man warned coldly, "Kid, you only have one Elite-level Pokémon, I advise you not to be too arrogant, otherwise I don't mind teaching you a lesson. As long as you're willing to let me leave, I guarantee I won't attack you again in the future."
Lu Li didn't reply, but released Milotic.
"How about now?" Lu Li said playfully.
Lu Li was now happy to stall for time with the other party, after all, the one who really couldn't afford to delay was the other party.
You have to know that this is Nan Du City, with such a big commotion here, normally the Nan Du City constables should be able to arrive at the scene soon.
The middle-aged man asked through gritted teeth, "2 vs 3, what makes you think the advantage is on your side? If you don't want your Pokémon to die, I advise you not to pester me."
"Heh."
Lu Li snorted and directly commanded, "Attract! Razor Leaf!"
An elegant cry rang out.
The powerful Milotic directly hard-controlled the three Ghost Pokémon, they were already almost succumbing to Milotic's beauty, and now after hearing this cry, they only felt their hearts melting.
"Stubborn!"
Snorting coldly, the middle-aged man commanded, "Shadow Ball! Hex! Shadow Sneak!"
Hmm?
The middle-aged man looked at the three unresponsive Pokémon in shock and anger.
The middle-aged man roared, "What are you three idiots doing?"
His time was already tight, if he didn't solve this guy, then the constables would really come.
The three Ghost Pokémon, who were awakened by the roar, were just about to react when they were hit in the face by the skills.
Seeing that these three Ghost Pokémon were so easily hit, Lu Li thought depressedly, "I should have used Leech Seed."
"Counterattack quickly!"
The middle-aged man shouted in exasperation.
Shadow Ball, Hex, Shadow Sneak.
Three different skills rushed straight at Lu Li.
As an assassin, although the middle-aged man wasn't a professional, he knew the principle of hitting the trainer first in a battle after receiving training.
Lu Li jumped off Tropius, and then Tropius directly stood in front of Lu Li.
Considering that there were surveillance cameras around and he didn't want his "superpowers" to be exposed, Lu Li chose to let Tropius take all the damage.
Having eaten three skills, Tropius groaned painfully, but still stood in place without falling.
"Milotic..."
Without Lu Li needing to remind it, Milotic launched a second wave of attacks.
Attract rang out again.
As a human, the middle-aged man's face changed after hearing this familiar voice, and then he looked at his Pokémon nervously.
Finding that those three idiots were hard-controlled again, the middle-aged man was numb.
"What kind of ghost skill is this?" The middle-aged man asked unwillingly.
"Attract! Don't worry, this skill has no damage." Lu Li comforted him considerately.
Then I really thank you!
Forcibly enduring the urge to curse, the middle-aged man could only roar angrily, "Quickly wake up, you bastards!"
This damn Attract is simply unscientific, why can this skill control others twice?
Normally speaking, a skill like Attract would only be effective the first time, because the second time people would have defense and resistance.
But for some reason, that damn Milotic is just so un-Pokémon-like!
