Chapter 1324 Ghost Captain "Lin"

"What Pokémon can affect me?"

"Illusion? A Psychic-type Pokémon... or maybe a Legendary Pokémon?"

Lin took a deep breath, a hint of caution in his eyes. He turned his head to look at the broken steering wheel beside him and asked, "Broken steering wheel, have you noticed anything wrong?"

"It's a bit strange, but I can't tell what's wrong exactly." A ghostly voice like a ghost came from the broken steering wheel.

Hearing Popo Helmsman's answer, Lin's heart suddenly sank to the bottom.

They had passed the same place three times in a row, so something must have gone wrong, but even a master-level broken wheel couldn't detect it...which also meant that this place was far more dangerous than he had imagined.

"Let's go back, back the way we came!" Lin ordered decisively, having already decided to retreat. As a wanted criminal, he was able to reach his current position not only because of his own strength, but more importantly, because of his inner vigilance. "Popo Helm, observe your surroundings carefully, and be careful of ambushes."

Lin took out the Poké Ball from his waist and threw it lightly. In an instant, a Pokémon similar to an evil spirit appeared beside him, observing the surroundings keenly with its gem-like eyes.

"Soul-stealing Eyes, you and Popo Helmsman check the surroundings!"

As Lin's voice fell, the body of the broken steering wheel slowly floated in the air, and the rusty body was covered with weeds.

Dark purple ghostly energy began to emanate from its body, surging outward like a tide, completely engulfing and enveloping all surrounding objects. The entire world seemed to be dyed dark purple.

"what!"

Through the surging ghost energy, Popo Helmsman finally sensed something was wrong. It continued to output terrifying ghost energy, drowning everything around it.

"boom!"

Accompanied by a sound similar to that of breaking glass, a surge of energy spread outwards with them as the core. Wherever the energy passed, the distorted illusion was destroyed, and everything real around them finally appeared in its entirety!

"This is... a cave?!" Lin looked at the unfamiliar environment around him, his eyes flashing with deep surprise and a hint of panic.

He had no recollection of ever having entered the cave. In his memory, he had always been walking on the forest path, but now he was actually standing in the cave.

There are damp and sharp rock walls all around, it is dark and empty, and there is a faint sound of rolling lake water coming from the distance.

Is this cave near a lake?

"Why am I here? This secret realm is too weird." A feeling of unease lingered in Lin's heart. He glanced at the broken steering wheel and the enchanting eyes beside him, took a deep breath, and said in a deep voice: "Never mind all this, let's retreat immediately and leave here."

However, when Lin just turned around and was about to leave, he suddenly stopped and his pupils suddenly shrank.

At some point, a strange Pokémon had blocked the exit of the cave, blocking their only way to escape.

what is this?

Team Rocket?

Human or Pokémon?

When did it appear here?

It was a Pokémon that looked like a human. It was wearing a dark blue suit with a bright tie on its collar. It also had a brand-name watch on its wrist and a pair of gold-rimmed glasses on its nose. Even its hair was carefully styled with wax.

The most important thing is that this guy is wearing the Rockets' iconic holy flame mask on his face, with a clown-like smile pattern, giving people a scary and weird feeling.

On both sides of the mask, red and white hair can be faintly seen from the gaps, dancing in the wind, and there is a fluffy red and white tail behind it.

Its entire body was surrounded by a terrifying red and white shadow, as if it was wrapped in a layer of red and white sacred fire, burning fiercely.

Of course, this is not the scariest thing. The scariest thing is its reflection on the dark cave wall.

Those shadows kept dancing, and vaguely twisted and transformed into countless wailing wronged souls. He seemed to hear the shrill wails and desperate cries!

My scalp is numb and my whole body is cold!

This should be the first time that Xi Cui Zoroark has appeared so formally. The last time in the World Tree Secret Realm, Xia Yu did not bring Xi Cui Zoroark with him for the safety of his family. This became one of his most regretful decisions.

"Team Rocket?" Lin Yin's face was gloomy. He stared at the Zoroark that appeared before him and asked in a deep voice, "Who are you?"

"Forest……"

Xi Cui Zoroark suddenly spoke in human language, which startled Lin a little, but compared with the previous shock, he was much calmer.

"I have no ill will towards you. I am here just hoping that you will give up resistance and stop your two Pokémon from fighting in vain. Just follow me obediently. I don't want to hurt you or your Pokémon." Zoroark's voice was calm, but revealed absolute confidence.

Even when facing two master-level Pokémon, Grindelwald and Soul-Snatching Eyes, Zoroark remained extremely calm.

Lin's face grew darker as he listened to Xi Cui Zoroark's words. He could sense the peculiarity and difficulty of Xi Cui Zoroark in front of him, but to expect him to surrender with just a few words was underestimating him.

"Who are you, and why are you wearing a Team Rocket mask?" Lin stared at Zoroark and asked in a deep voice, "What do you want to do by appearing here?"

He didn't know why a Pokémon would be dressed so formally and wear Team Rocket's iconic Holy Flame Mask.

"You have a lot of questions. I think my identity should be easy to guess. I'm Xia Yu's Pokémon." Zoroark said calmly, "You can think of me as a member of Team Rocket."

"As for the purpose of appearing here, it is naturally for you." Xi Cui Zoroark's voice was calm and composed.

"For me? Ha!" Lin chuckled. As clever as he was, he had already determined the purpose of Xi Cui Zoroark's visit. "So this so-called secret realm is an ambush set by your Team Rocket?"

"What about Zekrom and the Dragon Slate?" Lin looked directly at Zorroark and said in a deep voice, "The secret realm is fake, so are the Dragon Slate and Zekrom also fake?"

"No, everything is true." Xi Cui Zoroark said calmly, "I know you have too many questions in your mind, but you are not the protagonist of this show. You don't need to know too much, so I hope you will cooperate with us and be an audience member."

"Although we have different positions, surrendering is the most perfect outcome for both you and me."

Lin frowned as he listened to Xicui Zoroark's words. He raised his head and looked at Xicui Zoroark, his eyes full of confusion. He remained silent, as if he was making a silent protest.

"You want to fight?" Zoroark's eyes shone faintly under his gold-rimmed glasses. His gaze casually swept over the two Pokémon, Broken Wheel and Haunted Eyes, and then landed on Lin. "You're so stubborn. You have to experience despair before you choose to give in."

I have been updating steadily for three months recently, and I have also saved two chapter drafts in the past few days.

I decided to start over and update!

To be honest, I'm always afraid of everyone when I say I'll add more chapters. Last time, I said the gifts would be worth more chapters, and I thought I'd only add two or three chapters a month. But it turned out that the conditions were met and I had to add one chapter in three days. I was really scared.

Raising the threshold this time is a benefit for everyone.

3000 gift value plus one more update.

Of course, Erdao also hopes that everyone will not spend money to update the book. After all, the readers are all students. Just send free gifts or urge for updates. It’s enough as long as the thought is there.

We all gathered together because of our love for Pokémon. Thank you for liking my book. This additional update is equivalent to giving everyone a benefit.

Let me say this in advance: starting from next month! I will save my drafts this month!
