As a Gym Leader, in order to deal with enemies of different strengths, the Pokémon in his hand certainly couldn't all be Gym-level.

Arcanine was a Pokémon in his father's second tier. As a Pokémon personally raised by a Gym Leader of eighteen types, it was enough to protect Su Hao in the Spiral Secret Realm, where the strongest overlords were only Professional-level.

Soon it was Su Hao's turn in the queue. After handing the certificate that his father had asked a friend to open for Su Hao to the staff, Su Hao was let in after a while.

After passing through the ticket gate, Su Hao walked into the room housing the space channel to the Spiral Secret Realm.

The space channel was a circular vortex five meters in diameter.

Even though they were inside a room, the channel connected to the wild forest.

Crossing the channel, after a slight sense of weightlessness, Su Hao arrived at his destination—the Spiral Secret Realm.

The landing point was on a plain outside the forest.

Because since humans began exploring secret realms, unless they entered the secret realm together, the landing points for the two times before and after were random. You might land near a gold-rich mineral vein, or you might land at the doorstep of the secret realm's overlord.

Because of the randomness of the landing, the first batch of people to explore the secret realm had all suffered losses to varying degrees.

Just after landing, Su Hao released Carbink from the Poké Ball, and then spread his own Aura power out within

five meters around him, alert for any attacks that might come at any time.

The Pokémon in the secret realm were not like those in the outside world; they had very little contact with humans. Here, they still followed the primitive laws of the jungle, and most of the Pokémon inside were full of aggression.

By visual observation, Su Hao did not find any traces of Pokémon near the plain.

The purpose of entering the secret realm this time was for battle. After a brief thought, Su Hao told Carbink through his Aura power to prepare to explore the forest ahead.

One person and one pet walked slowly into the forest.

As soon as they entered the forest, the sounds from all directions increased.

From overhead came the chirping of unknown bird Pokémon, and ahead were the roars of unknown types of Pokémon fighting.

Aura power completely covered his surroundings as he explored forward. Not long after, a Pokémon appeared within Su Hao's sensing range.

This Pokémon was a petite mouse Pokémon with brown skin. Its white, long, striped tail at the end was held upright, and its large red-and-yellow eyes were vigilantly observing its surroundings.

This Pokémon was called Patrat.

Pokémon: 【Patrat】

Type: 【Normal】

Gender: 【♂】

Ability: 【Keen Eye】

Level: 【8】

Moves: 【Tackle, Leer, Bite, Endure】

The strength of this Patrat was just right for Litten to practice on.

After signaling Carbink, who was preparing to attack, to step back, Su Hao threw Litten's Poké Ball.

"Meow-ow~!" Litten's red-and-black body landed on the ground, its eyes locked onto Patrat.

"Squeak, squeak, squeak!" Feeling threatened, Patrat got down on all fours and struck a threatening pose.

Seeing that even a tiny mouse dared to threaten it, Litten felt that its dignity as a feline Pokémon had been provoked.

"Meow-ow-ow!"

An invisible wave flashed by, and Patrat's body, which had just been maintaining a threatening pose, suddenly stiffened.

Seeing that Litten's actively released Intimidate ability had an effect, Su Hao naturally wouldn't miss this opportunity and immediately commanded Litten to approach Patrat and use Revenge to attack.

Patrat, who had been frightened and hadn't recovered yet, couldn't make a response in time and could only watch as a black-and-red shadow flashed by, losing consciousness.

Seeing Patrat defeated by Litten without any effort, Su Hao patted Litten's head in appreciation and took a spicy Energy Cube from his backpack as a reward for Litten.

After praising Litten, Su Hao simply treated the wounds of the awakened Patrat and continued to explore forward with Litten and Carbink.
