Chapter 92
Next time, Su Yu's grasp of timing should be even more precise.
Fortunately, along the way, Su Yu encountered no Pokémon attacks.
What he feared most were mindless Flying-type Pokémon charging recklessly to their deaths.
But it seemed Salamence's intimidation was more than sufficient.
Many wild Pokémon, upon sensing Salamence's presence, dared not approach.
The feeling differed from riding atop a Luxray.
Leaning against Salamence's back, Su Yu felt extremely comfortable.
With Salamence blocking ahead, the fierce winds hardly reached him.
Moreover, the flight speed was not slow, likely around 100 kilometers per hour.
Most crucially, flying in the sky required no detours.
One only needed to fly straight; this was precisely why flying offered such convenience.
The altitude at which Su Yu flew was not too high, allowing him to observe conditions on the ground.
Yet it was not so high as to cause excessive cold.
Just as Su Yu was flying through the sky,
explosions echoed from within the secret realm.
It sounded as though some Pokémon were battling.
Occasionally, desperate screams of humans mingled with the noise.
"Salamence, let's go see what's happening."
Su Yu directed Salamence to turn and head toward the source of the sounds.
At this moment, the four-person team of Sun Sun Wenxing, Qiao Qiao Zhongyan, Yu Yu Jiashu, and Zhou Zhou Pengyi had entered the secret realm
and begun exploring its safe zone.
However, since the safe zone had already undergone moderate development, the Pokémon there were not high-leveled.
This was the case in all secret realms.
This left Sun Sun Wenxing and Yu Yu Jiashu somewhat frustrated.
Their respective Pokémon were a level 28 Nidorina and a level 29 Butterfree.
Facing these Pokémon, they could handle them themselves without even needing Zhou Zhou Pengyi to act.
But this wouldn't do!
What the two of them truly hoped for was a chance to display their masculinity.
They had not come merely for sightseeing.
If things continued like this, without any proper opportunity, how could they ever win over the goddess beside them, Qiao Qiao Zhongyan?
Sun Sun Wenxing and Yu Yu Jiashu exchanged glances, communicating silently with their eyes.
Sun Sun Wenxing spoke first, "This safe zone is a bit too boring; why don't we venture slightly deeper?"
Yu Yu Jiashu nodded in agreement, "We came here to explore; if we only search the developed areas, we're just picking up scraps others left behind. To find anything valuable, we must go deeper."
Hearing their words, Qiao Qiao Zhongyan also found them reasonable.
She too felt that the Pokémon here were too low-leveled, making the whole endeavor quite meaningless.
If they merely wanted to go out for fun, they might as well visit some scenic spot.
Nevertheless, she first glanced at Zhou Zhou Pengyi beside her.
The burly Zhou Zhou Pengyi frowned but still said,
"Shallow areas are fine, but if we go deeper, I cannot guarantee your safety."
Upon hearing this, the three of them eagerly began planning to advance further inward.
They took a small path no one had traversed and made their way inside.
After walking for several hours, the four of them noticed that the Pokémon levels here had increased.
With Zhou Zhou Pengyi providing protection, they felt no fear whatsoever.
If they could perform a heroic rescue at this very moment, wouldn't that secure their romantic success?
Both men thought exactly this.
Suddenly, a Pokémon with two heads and a long, slender beak darted swiftly past Sun Sun Wenxing.
"That's a Doduo; although it appears to lack wings, it can still learn the move Fly."
"Moreover, Doduo generally live in groups; they are very united. It's best not to provoke them lightly; if you must attack, ensure you defeat them in a single strike."
Zhou Zhou Pengyi explained upon seeing the Doduo.
At this moment, Sun Sun Wenxing paid no attention to what Zhou Zhou Pengyi was saying.
His gaze was fixed firmly on the Doduo's neck.
If he wasn't mistaken, the Doduo's neck seemed to be adorned with a sash!
This might very well be some kind of item!!
If obtained, it could fetch millions at the trading center!
Sun Sun Wenxing felt as though wealth itself was waving at him from nearby.
He swiftly summoned his Nidorina.
A mouse entirely pale blue in color appeared.
"Nidorina, use Poison Sting on that Doduo from just now!"
Nidorina nodded, then expelled tiny poison needles from its mouth, one after another.
"Swish, swish, swish!" The poison needles struck the running Dudu directly.
Seeing this, Sun Sun Wenxing's face lit up with wild joy.
However, Zhou Zhou Pengyi's expression suddenly froze.
"Dudu!!" After being hit, Dudu let out a loud cry.
The sound brought tears to the ears of those who heard it, filled with agony.
"What are you doing?" Zhou Zhou Pengyi asked anxiously.
"What am I doing? Grabbing the item, of course! Look, there seems to be a scarf wrapped around that Dudu's neck! It must be some kind of treasure."
Hearing Sun Sun Wenxing's words, Yu Yu Jiashu and Qiao Qiao Zhongyan's eyes also lit up.
"It's true! There really is something on its neck! A treasure like this should fetch at least a million!"
The two exclaimed in delight.
However, Zhou Zhou Pengyi could not feel happy at all.
"Forget the scarf! I said earlier that Dudus live in groups. If one Dudu is attacked, a huge swarm will rush out to help."
"Among them, there are even quite a few evolved Dodrios!"
"We need to leave immediately!!"
At this moment, Sun Sun Wenxing and Yu Yu Jiashu became displeased.
"We hired you specifically to protect our safety; can't you even handle a group of Dodrios? And to think we paid so much money."
"This isn't about money; even with two fists, one cannot fight against four hands," Zhou Zhou Pengyi said with a bitter expression.
"I don't care! I must get that scarf! It's worth the price of a house!"
At this moment, Sun Sun Wenxing's eyes were completely blinded by the treasure.
He had no mind to care about anything else.
"Nidorina, let's continue the attack!"
However, just as Sun Sun Wenxing's voice fell,
thunderous footsteps echoed throughout the entire forest!
The footsteps were extremely dense, indicating a large number of arrivals!
Moreover, flying sand several meters high was kicked up within the forest, suggesting the arrivals were moving very fast!
"We're done for!" Zhou Zhou Pengyi's face turned iron-green; the Dodrio packs had been summoned by the earlier Dudu!
"Dudu!!" "Dudu!!"
The cries of Dudus and Dodrios rang out from the forest.
At this moment, the three of them—Sun Sun Wenxing and his companions—finally realized the danger.
"Holy crap! Why are there so many Dodrios? Is this real or fake?"
