In the deep mountains, where peaks upon peaks rose and ancient trees touched the sky, a light mist like a veil permeated everything, shrouding it in a mysterious aura.
The occasional calls of Pidgey only added to the tranquility of the mountain forest.
Chen Kai sat steadily on Miraidon’s back, weaving through the jungle.
Behind them, a few low wolf howls broke the serenity of the mountain forest. A large Mightyena slowly emerged from the dense woods, its back fur as black as night, glowing faintly, its eyes fierce and greedy, staring intently at the Flaaffy and the young man, baring its sharp teeth and letting out a low growl.
Chen Kai gripped the handle on Miraidon’s back tightly with one hand: “Accelerate, faster.”
Miraidon’s thighs emitted a wake, ignoring the dense trees, and its speed suddenly increased.
The Mightyena behind them were not to be outdone; they pushed off with their hind legs, chasing after them like silver-black lightning.
However, Miraidon had, after all, consumed two more legendary seasonings, so even without exerting its full power, it was not something the Mightyena could catch up to.
But Chen Kai seemed to intentionally control his speed, just keeping the Mightyena on a leash ahead, giving them a false impression.
The two sides chased for several minutes, and gradually, several Mightyena lost stamina and broke away from the main group.
Only one, the largest Mightyena, remained. It was the patriarch of this pack of Mightyena, and it had dealt with Chen Kai’s group a long time ago.
Though in the past, it was only Chen Kai unilaterally being chased.
Seeing the time was ripe, Chen Kai abruptly controlled Miraidon to turn right, while simultaneously leaning his body to the left, the entire movement fluid and natural.
Under the powerful centrifugal force, Miraidon’s rear wheels instantly lost traction and began to spin wildly, the tires rubbing against the ground and kicking up a large cloud of dust.
Miraidon tilted at an astonishing angle, as if about to kiss the ground, but Chen Kai remained as steady as Mount Tai, firmly in control of the situation, as Miraidon was helping to assist with balance. As the drift continued, they drew a graceful and exaggerated arc, like a purple lightning bolt across the ground, and then charged head-on towards the Mightyena!
Using the inertia, he threw a Poké Ball glowing with pink light.
The Poké Ball opened right in front of the Mightyena, and a Flaaffy glowing with pink light bounced out, smiling happily and saying:
“Flaaffy!” (Surprise!)
The Mightyena tried to brake, but it was already too late. Xiao Mei was about to crash into its face. Chen Kai gave the command: “Dazzling Gleam!”
“Flaaffy!”
“Ow…”
“Bang!”
With a pained cry from the Mightyena, it was blasted away by Dazzling Gleam.
An ordinary Mightyena couldn’t withstand Xiao Mei’s close-range Dazzling Gleam, which had been charged for several minutes, but as the patriarch, its strength was still very high!
However, the once majestic Mightyena patriarch was now in a sorry state. Its silver-black fur was charred in many places by Dazzling Gleam, curling up in strands, losing its former smoothness and luster.
It had several wounds on its body, with blood slowly seeping out, staining the surrounding fur red.
Especially one of its ears, being close to the Dazzling Gleam, was somewhat burnt and festering, slightly curled and drooping limply.
Even when it fought fiercely with the Grimmsnarl, it wasn’t this disheveled. It was now burning with rage!
“Syrup Bomb!”
At this moment, Chen Kai threw out another Poké Ball.
Big Boss spat a thick, long-accumulated Syrup Bomb towards the Mightyena. Chen Kai intended to perform a righteous two-on-one, as Xiao Mei and Dipplin’s combined levels might not even be as high as the Mightyena patriarch’s.
The Mightyena, which had always lived in Area Zero, had never seen such a thing? It was hit directly by the Syrup Bomb.
Already injured, it became somewhat immobile once stuck by the Syrup Bomb.
“Xiao Mei, hit it with an Electric Net!”
Xiao Mei heard him and immediately flicked its tail, a yellow Electric Net hitting the Mightyena patriarch.
Seeing that it was almost time, Chen Kai loudly declared: “It’s time to let some of it out! Xiao Mei, Tera!”
Chen Kai mobilized all his strength, condensing it into the crystal orb between his hands. In an instant, the black orb trembled violently like a lit firework, then exploded with a dazzling display of rainbow light. The light was incredibly bright, like a newborn sun, scattering brilliant and fantastical halos in all directions, making one dizzy.
Chen Kai forcefully threw the crystal orb at Xiao Mei. The moment the crystal orb touched Xiao Mei, a huge crystal instantly formed around Xiao Mei, enveloping her.
Immediately, the crystal burst open, and a dazzling strong light instantly illuminated the entire area. Xiao Mei had a large light bulb on her head, her entire body covered by a layer of sparkling Tera shell.
Xiao Mei successfully completed her Tera.
Xiao Mei had never Terad before, and she made a surprised sound:
“Flaaffy! Flaaffy!” (Oh oh oh! I’m full of power!)
Chen Kai commanded: “Alright, the other Mightyena are catching up, quickly finish this!
Xiao Mei, full power Thunderbolt!”
“Flaaffy!” (Okay!)
Xiao Mei agreed, then began to gather electrical energy. The Mightyena had already seen the bad situation and wanted to retreat, but the slowdown from the Syrup Bomb and Electric Net made it unable to move fast.
The large light bulb on Xiao Mei’s head began to emit a large amount of electric light! As Xiao Mei finished charging, a thick, snake-like golden current shot out like an arrow from a bowstring, accompanied by a loud “crackling” sound, heating the air wherever it passed.
This Thunderbolt fiercely struck the Mightyena, and as the electric light flashed, the already severely wounded Mightyena convulsed all over and fainted.
“Good!” Chen Kai excitedly waved his fist.
Miraidon looked up at the sky: “It’s getting late, almost time to go home!”
“Okay, let’s go then.” Chen Kai walked over and picked up the crystal orb.
He couldn’t help but complain, normally, shouldn’t this orb fly back into his hand? It’s not smart at all.
He casually sprayed the Mightyena with a Potion and left some food for it.
After all, with the precedents of Wang Yi and the yellow-haired guy, even in Area Zero, he didn’t dare to affect the ecosystem too much.
Battles were battles, life was life.
The most important thing was that he had money in his pocket again; he had taken some time these past few days to pick some berries and sell them.
When he left Kyoto, the cost of treating people to meals and returning by plane was all covered by Huabei.
After selling a dozen berries, he had nearly 100,000 yuan in savings again.
Xiao Mei relaxed after the battle ended, and her Tera also deactivated, the crystals covering her body shattering and dissipating into the air.
Xiao Mei looked at herself in surprise:
“Flaaffy!” (How amazing!)
Second Boss watched curiously throughout:
“Dipplin!” (I want to try next time too!)
Chen Kai readily agreed: “Okay, I’ll let you try in a few days!”
