I haven't decided on a name for my Pokémon trainer yet.

Ye Feng narrowed his eyes.

Ye Feng had seen Steelix before, but most Steelixes were less than 5 meters long. This one was significantly larger, probably close to 7 meters.

Moreover, Ye Feng keenly noticed that the giant steel snake was behaving strangely.

Generally speaking, when a secret realm descends, the weaker the Pokémon, the more chaotic it becomes. However, judging from its aura, this Steelix is ​​not weak, so it shouldn't be so berserk.

"What's going on?" Ye Feng frowned, pondering, a bad feeling creeping into his heart.

The giant steel snake roared, its tail whipping out and smashing down a two-story restaurant. Its eyes glowed red as it charged in a chosen direction.

And the direction it was heading was none other than the direction Ye Feng was in!

Chapter 157 The Stolen Life Energy, Ye Feng Ventures Alone into the Secret Realm

"Watch out!" Everyone was shocked to see the Steelix charging towards Ye Feng. They shouted a warning and ordered their Pokémon to attack.

However, in such a rush, they couldn't organize any effective attacks; they either missed their targets or had no impact on Steelix's advance.

"Humph!"

Ye Feng snorted coldly. If it were a year ago, he might have been alarmed, but now…

"Flash Charge, Water Tail, Fireball!"

Before Ye Feng could finish speaking, the three Pokémon had already launched their attack.

Arcanine charged forward, engulfed in flames, Gyarados lashed out with its tail, striking Steelix hard on the head, and Gardevoir also threw a Fireball that hit Steelix in the abdomen.

"Roar!"

The giant steel snake didn't even have a chance to get close to Ye Feng before it was sent flying back, crashing heavily into the building below the entrance to the secret realm.

Everyone was on high alert, ready to attack Steelix, but after waiting for a long time, Steelix did not appear.

Finally, a trainer sent out his Pidgeot to check on it and found that Steelix had already fainted.

"This is... a one-second kill?"

"So strong!"

The gazes of the crowd toward Ye Feng became filled with awe.

However, Ye Feng ignored all of this. After the Pokémon went all out, he knew that Steelix was no longer able to fight. His eyes were fixed on the entrance to the secret realm at the top of the building.

"Come on... come on..."

Ye Feng's eyes began to glaze over, and he took a step in a daze.

"Shauna!"

Suddenly a clear shout rang out, and Ye Feng shivered violently. When he came to his senses, he found that his back was covered in cold sweat.

Gardevoir emitted a blue light emanating from its entire body, and the powerful psychic energy spread out, enveloping Ye Feng, Arcanine, and Gyarados.

"Thanks, Gardevoir."

Ye Feng smiled at Gardevoir.

He had just vaguely heard calls, and then it was as if he had lost the ability to think, with only one thought in his mind—enter this secret realm, enter this secret realm…

Ye Feng frowned and looked around. He noticed that the other trainers seemed to have lost their souls, slowly moving towards the building where the entrance to the secret realm was located.

The Pokémon around them, apart from a few Psychic-type Pokémon that barely maintained their senses, were also bewitched.

"What happened? Gardevoir, do you have a way to wake them up?"

Gardevoir shook her head.

Because Ye Feng had trained, his mental strength was much stronger than that of ordinary people. Even so, it took Gardevoir a lot of effort to wake him up.

The others seem to be deeply involved, and Gardevoir is powerless to help them.

Ye Feng frowned, still unaware of what had happened. Everyone else seemed to be in a dazed state and couldn't be awakened. He was worried about whether he could handle any further complications.

Just as I was about to call the association to report, I heard a series of sounds. I turned around and saw several flying sprites flying towards us.

"Oops!"

Before Ye Feng could do anything, the trainers who came to help all fell from the sky.

Fortunately, after the person flying in front showed signs of distress, the trainers behind reacted quickly, stopped moving forward, and promptly threw out Grass-type Pokémon to catch the falling trainer and their Pokémon with Vine Whip.

"Shauna!"

Gardevoir cried out a few times.

"What did you say?"

Ye Feng's expression changed, and he suddenly looked at the building where the entrance to the secret realm was located.

Below the building, the trainers stretched their hands towards the sky like zombies, uttering incomprehensible roars.

Ye Feng immediately called Cao Xuemei: "Auntie, immediately notify the people coming to help. Trainers without at least an intermediate-level Psychic-type Pokémon should not approach. Something has happened here..."

Ye Feng briefly described the situation at the scene.

"Xiaofeng, you need to get out of there right away!" Cao Xuemei urged anxiously over the phone.

Ye Feng refused. He looked at the entrance to the secret realm, then at the trainers below who were stretching their arms out to the sky and roaring incessantly. He couldn't bring himself to leave.

"I need to go into the secret realm and find out exactly what happened," Ye Feng said.

"What?! Are you crazy?!" Cao Xuemei shouted anxiously.

With the danger level of the secret realm uncertain and such strange things happening outside, who knows what the inside of the secret realm is like?

Isn't Ye Feng courting death by going in alone?

"It seems that Psychic-type Pokémon won't be affected; Gardevoir is there, so everything will be fine. Besides, we can't afford to waste any more time..."

Ye Feng looked at the trainers with a serious expression.

"What happened? Calm down, whatever you do, don't go in!"

"I'm sorry, Auntie, I'm the only one here who can save them right now. I can't just watch them die." Ye Feng said, then hung up the phone and turned it off.

Ye Feng took a deep breath and looked up at the entrance to the secret realm.

Normally, Ye Feng would never venture alone into such a dangerous and unknown secret realm.

Having experienced time travel once, he could be said to have died once, so he cherishes life more than anyone else.

But Gardevoir just told him that the life energy of those trainers and their Pokémon is slowly being drained away and absorbed into the secret realm by an unknown force.

Life energy is not infinite, which is one of the reasons why Pokémon consume stamina when using moves.

If this trend continues, everyone will likely die within three hours.

There simply wasn't enough time to find enough trainers with Psychic-type Pokémon to provide support.

Not to brag, but how many Psychic-type Pokémon in Jinghai City can rival Gardevoir in strength?

Those who lack the ability will not only be of no help but will also become a burden, making the situation worse.

Ye Feng forced a smile, his calves trembling slightly.

Ye Feng had seen his share of things, but this unknown entity that could absorb life energy from a distance could very well threaten his life, causing him to instinctively feel a sense of fear.

He wanted to run, but he couldn't.

The trainers before him were waiting for him to save them.

Ye Feng isn't a saint; who could turn and run away in such a situation? Who could just stand by and watch so many people lose their lives?

Ye Feng couldn't do it.

If he runs away, it will become a lifelong torment for him.

"I wonder if people will see me as a hero for doing this?" Ye Feng forced a smile.

"Shauna!"

"Ouch!"

"Roar!"

"Ku-gu!"

Encouraged by the elves, Ye Feng felt his mood calm down a bit.

Ye Feng smiled and comforted himself, "That's true. If we successfully resolve this matter, maybe my name will be the answer to a fill-in-the-blank or multiple-choice question in the college entrance examination."

"In that case, let's get going." Ye Feng bent down to hug CocoDora, who had somehow appeared out of nowhere. "Hmm—"

···

How did Coco Dora get so heavy again? It must be almost 200 pounds now! How did it grow so much? It's not like it has heavy metal properties.

Ye Feng didn't pick him up immediately.

The originally serious atmosphere suddenly became awkward. Ye Feng was silent for a few seconds, then took out a Poké Ball and, under the strange gazes of the Pokémon, recalled Akagi and Arcanine.

Then, with a calm expression, he and Gardevoir mounted Gyarados and said, "Let's go."

Ye Feng patted Gyarados's neck, and Gyarados roared and flew towards the entrance of the secret realm.
