Chapter 18 Li Yunyao

"Li Tianwang."

"Two museum masters, I came here as soon as I received your message." Li Yunyao had a standard square face, a tall figure, and was wearing casual clothes. He looked at the three people with a serious expression: "Where is Xu Xiuren?"

He obviously also saw the tragic scene on the ground. Three Pokémon were killed in the battle, which was enough to show how brutal the battle was.

"He just ran away." Xia Yong said with difficulty: "We are no match for him. His Banjiras is very strong."

"Sure enough." Li Yunyao sighed, and then asked in a serious tone: "I need you to tell me the details of the battle, don't hide anything."

"it is good."

…………

Xia Yong described the incident in detail, and also mentioned that Xu Xiu came here for the purpose of that Grass Z Pure Crystal. Although they tried their best to stop him, they were still no match for Xu Xiu. The three corpses underground were the best proof of this.

The more Li Yunyao listened, the more serious his expression became. It was not difficult to tell from Xia Yong's narration that Xu Xiu had now entered the ranks of a king-level trainer. Although he only had one king-level Banguirus, it did not affect Xu Xiu's strength at all.

"Is it pure grass crystal?"

Li Yunyao was filled with regret for the lost Z-Crystal. Since the development of Z-Moves, Z-Crystal has always been a strategic weapon for various countries. A powerful Z-Move is enough to turn the situation around and break the deadlock. If Xu Xiu could be stopped and the Grass Z-Crystal could be captured, it would definitely be a great achievement. The Pokémon Association might even reward the Xia family with a quasi-god Pokémon, what a pity.

Although Li Yunyao felt extremely regretful, he did not show any disappointment on his face. Instead, he comforted Xia Yong and Xia Luo. He also knew that with the strength of Xia Yong and his son, it was impossible to stop Xu Xiu. If they met some irresponsible gym owners, they might not fight Xu Xiu at all. Such behavior should be encouraged: "You have tried your best. It's not your fault. The Pokémon Association will not forget your efforts. For the Pokémon that died in the battle, the Pokémon Association will try its best to compensate you and will definitely let you choose Pokémon eggs."

"Thank you, King Li." Xia Yong felt relieved after listening to Li Yunyao's words. He was afraid that the Xia family had paid so much, but the Pokémon Association would still hold them accountable, which would be troublesome.

"This is what the Pokémon Association should do. The Pokémon Association is sending people to take over this secret realm. You can go and rest first. It may take a few days for this secret realm to stabilize. Although the Grass Z Pure Crystal is lost, the value of the secret realm itself is still very high. You have done a good job. After the Pokémon Association calculates the value of the secret realm, it will give you a reward." Li Yunyao comforted the two: "Now you can go back and have a good sleep."

…………

After returning home, Charlotte went straight to her room, locked the door, and locked herself in the house.

Looking at this scene, Xia Yong didn't know how to comfort his eldest son. He could only sigh and return to his study.

The Xia family suffered heavy losses in this secret realm journey. Having lost their two ace Pokémon, Charlotte undoubtedly no longer has the strength to serve as the Fire Gym Leader in Red Lotus City. I believe that the Pokémon Association will soon announce his resignation as gym leader, which will definitely be a big blow to the high-spirited Charlotte.

You have to know that even with the compensation from the Pokémon Association, it would take at least one or two years for Charlotte to train a new quasi-king-level Pokémon if all conditions are met.

The next one or two years will be the most difficult time for the Xia family.

Fortunately, Xia Yong's own Flashing Mantis is still alive, otherwise even he might lose his position as the Insect Gym Leader. Once he loses his position, all the enemies who have been eyeing the Xia family for a long time will jump out and tear the Xia family to pieces and divide it up completely.

"Alas. I forgot to ask Xiaoyu how he appeared in the secret realm, this kid."

Compared to his worried father and devastated brother, Xia Yu's trip to the secret realm was undoubtedly fruitful.

Not only did he tame the Wood Gecko, but he also obtained the Lizard King Evolution Stone, which was one of the few good news.

Xia Yu was lying on the bed in the room, staring at the ceiling in a daze. The wood gecko next to him was using fitness equipment to exercise his body strength, while the buzzing bat was flying carefree in the air, playing like a child.

The personalities of the wood gecko and the buzzing bat are completely different. The buzzing bat is innocent and naive, and even though it has the ferocity of dragon blood in its bones, it was born not long ago and behaves like a child around Xia Yu, and is extremely intimate to Xia Yu.

On the contrary, the separation from the Lizard King parents, coupled with their expectations, made the Wood Gecko like a child walking out of the mountains, tenacious and persevering. Its belief in becoming stronger is stronger than anyone else, and it has its own dreams and pursuits, so it immediately started training after being released from the Poké Ball by Xia Yu.

"Buzz Bat, you have to learn from the Wood Gecko and train with it." Xia Yu rubbed Buzz Bat's head and said.

"Buzz!" The buzzing bat made a cheerful call in response to Xia Yu's words. It flapped its wings and flew to the side of the wood gecko, learning the wood gecko's training methods.

Xia Yu's mind now drifted to his elder brother again. He was full of worries about him. Having lived a second life, he valued his relatives more than anyone else. The so-called family is the selfless dedication. They will be happy with your happiness and proud of your success.

Usually, it is his brother and parents who silently contribute, but this time Xia Yu decided to do something.

Xia Yu made up his mind, took out the box containing the S-level Thunder Stone, held it silently in his hand, and walked to the door of his brother's room.

Because of the Dragon-type Pokémon Master quest, Xia Yu will most likely only capture Dragon-type Pokémon, so he will most likely not be able to use this S-level Thunder Stone, so it would be better to give it to his brother.

Xia Yu knocked on his brother's door.

"Who?" Charlotte's tired voice came from inside the house.

"Brother, it's me."

"Click!" The door opened, revealing Charlotte, who looked tired.

"What's wrong, Xiaoyu, what's the matter?"

Looking at Charlotte who was forcing a smile, Xia Yu felt a lump in his throat. No matter how painful his heart was, Charlotte always showed his best side to his family.

"Brother. This time the Pokémon Association will compensate you and let you choose Pokémon. I want to go with you." Xia Yu looked at Charlotte and said seriously.

"Let's talk about it later. We can go together then." Charlotte said indifferently. His mind was not on this one.

"Brother." Xia Yu looked at Charlotte seriously, his tone sincere, his expression rare seriousness: "This time you must choose the electric Pokémon. This is a treasure I found in the underground black market last night. I give it to you. I hope you can cheer up, brother."

Looking at the box handed over by Xia Yu and hearing what Xia Yu said, even though he didn't know what was in the box, Xia Luo was slightly moved and couldn't help rubbing Xia Yu's head: "Xiao Yu, brother is fine, he just needs some time to calm down, and brother is very rich. Since it is a treasure you found, you can just keep it yourself, you don't have to give it to me."

"Brother, open it and take a look first." Xia Yu said mysteriously, "This is a good thing. I am reluctant to give it up this time."

"What is this? Why is it so mysterious?" Charlotte was a little curious about the prop that Xia Yu mentioned, and couldn't help but open the box.

The box slowly opened, revealing the S-level item Thunder Stone.

"Thunder Stone?" Charlotte looked at the Thunder Stone carefully. The quality of the Thunder Stone was very good, at least above Grade B. The specific grade would be known after identification. "It's good, at least above Grade B. Thank you for your kindness, brother."

A piece of Thunder Stone of this quality is not cheap. It seems that Xia Yu really found a good treasure.

"Brother!" Xia Yu was speechless, looking at Charlotte with a smile on his face: "This Thunder Stone is an S-level item."

"S-level?!" Charlotte, who was originally in a low mood, immediately became tense when he heard Xia Yu's words. If this Thunder Stone is really an S-level item, then it is a rare treasure.

Because S-level Thunder Stones have a certain probability of improving the qualifications of Electric-type Pokémon!

"Really?"

"real."
