the other side.
Yan Fan's hands trembled as he stared at the siren in his hand, the red light on it flashing incessantly.
"Beep!" Pidgeot's loud cry rang out from above everyone's heads.
"Here, here!" Yan Fan threw down the siren in his hand, stood up, and waved his hands frantically.
The ranger on the Pidgeot spotted Yan Fan and immediately had the Pidgeot land next to the four of them.
"Did you press the alarm?" the forest ranger asked, looking at the four of them.
"Yes, it's us, uncle, please save our friend!" Yan Fan stepped forward and grabbed the forest ranger's arm.
"Don't worry, we won't abandon anyone. Tell me slowly what happened," the forest ranger said, comforting Yan Fan.
"Yes, yes. That's how it is..." Yan Fan calmed himself down and recounted what had happened in the shortest possible way.
"Elf research? Black-robed man?" The forest ranger frowned as he pondered.
"Uncle, I beg you, please go and save Lin Xiaolin! He's been taken away for a long time!" Yan Fan kept pulling on the forest ranger's arm.
"Don't worry, we'll send people over right away, but this isn't something a lowly forest ranger like me can handle. I need to report to headquarters." Before Yan Fan could say anything more, Qin Lele pulled him away.
"Don't bother the forest rangers. He'll only be throwing his life away if he goes alone. We need the forest rangers' headquarters to send someone over," Qin Lele whispered in Yan Fan's ear.
After the forest ranger finished reporting to headquarters, he looked at the four people again.
"Do you have a way to find him? Headquarters has already sent people, but if we can't get his exact location, we can only do a thorough search, which is very slow."
"Yes!" Qin Lele stepped forward and took Xiao Lan's Poké Ball in her hand.
"This is Lin Xiaolin's companion Pokémon, a Psychic Gardevoir. She can sense Lin Xiaolin's location, but she is very weak right now and has just woken up from a coma. If you have a healing Pokémon, she should be able to locate Lin Xiaolin."
"Okay!" The forest ranger picked up the walkie-talkie again and said something.
He waited a few minutes before turning around.
"Don't worry, the trainer who is about to become an Elite Four member and is guarding Star Forest is on his way. Moreover, Gym Leader Xiao and Gym Leader Shi have also heard about this and are on their way. The trainer will arrive here in about ten minutes."
Instead of being happy upon hearing the news, everyone began to worry. Lin Xiaolin had already been taken away for more than ten minutes, and it was uncertain whether she would survive if they waited another ten minutes.
But there's no other way now, we can only wait.
In the following minutes, more than a dozen forest rangers arrived at the location one after another.
Finally, after more than ten minutes, a Pidgeot descended from the sky, and a middle-aged man in casual clothes got down from behind the Pidgeot with a serious expression.
"You and I take these kids back first. Give me that Gardevoir Poké Ball, and the rest of you come with me to find someone!" The middle-aged man immediately gave instructions to the two rangers as soon as he arrived. Qin Lele quickly handed Xiao Lan's Poké Ball to the middle-aged man.
"Uncle, can we go together?" Yan Fan asked excitedly from the side.
"No way! You'll just be a burden! Not only will you be useless, you'll also distract us from protecting you. Just go back and wait, and leave the rest to us!"
The middle-aged man acted swiftly and decisively. After speaking, he immediately mounted the Pidgeot, which flew into the sky, and the other rangers quickly followed.
Although the middle-aged man's words were harsh, they were the truth. The two rangers who were left behind carried the four of them towards headquarters. Yan Fan sat on the back of the Pidgeot and felt powerlessness for the first time.
He lowered his head, clenched his fists, and tears streamed down his face uncontrollably.
"Yan Fan." Qin Lele hugged Yan Fan tightly.
"It's alright, Xiao Lin will be fine."
The middle-aged man released Little Blue when he flew into the sky, and the weak Little Blue sat directly on Pidgeot's back.
"Roserede, heal her." The oddly colored little blue didn't surprise him too much; he simply released a Roserede to heal the little blue.
Roserade released life-giving drops to heal Blue.
Chapter 45 Attack
"Can you sense your trainer's location?" the middle-aged man asked hurriedly after Xiao Lan recovered a little. Although Xiao Lan was still a bit weak after receiving treatment, she was already able to use a little bit of her mental energy.
Xiao Lan kept sensing Lin Xiao Lin in her mind. A few minutes later, Xiao Lan weakly opened her eyes and pointed in Lin Xiao Lin's direction.
A dozen or so Pidgeots sped through the sky, heading at top speed in the direction Little Blue had pointed.
Lin Xiaolin had been in this mysterious room for quite some time now. He didn't know how long he had been there, but he felt that every minute and every second was torture.
With a click, Lin Xiaolin heard the door open. Oh no, Lin Xiaolin thought to himself.
"Alright, let's begin our transaction," came the hoarse voice of the black-robed leader.
The hood on Lin Xiaolin's head was removed, and the blinding light made Lin Xiaolin squint.
The man in black was even more secretive than when Lin Xiaolin had seen him before. He was wearing a cloak and a mask, making it impossible to see any facial features.
"Eat it, and I'll let you go." The leader of the men in black held a gray pill in his hand, which was no different from any other medicine except for its color.
"Give me back Gengar's Poké Ball, or you won't even be able to fight back when you encounter your companions outside." Lin Xiaolin took the pills without hesitation and then spoke to the man in black.
"Haha, you cunning kid, don't worry, I'll personally escort you out later. How could I let my cash cow go without you?" Seeing Lin Xiaolin accept the medicine so decisively, the man in black also gave Lin Xiaolin the Gengar Poké Ball.
Soul-Hooking Eyes watched from the sidelines. If Lin Xiaolin did anything wrong, Soul-Hooking Eyes would capture him without even giving Lin Xiaolin a chance to release his spirit.
"Aren't you going to get me some water? How am I supposed to eat this?" Lin Xiaolin took the Gengar's Poké Ball and casually put it in his pocket, then looked at the pills in his hand and said.
"Just eat it, stop with the nonsense!" The leader of the men in black was no longer in a good mood.
"Pour me a glass of water, otherwise I can't eat. The Soul-Hooking Eye is watching me right here. Do you think I'll run away?" Lin Xiaolin pretended to be casual, now certain that the man in black wouldn't dare to kill him.
The man in black stared at him for a few seconds, then went out to pour him water. Lin Xiaolin looked at the pills in his hand and almost cried. Why wasn't anyone coming?
But just a short while after the man in black left, the entire base shook violently with a loud bang, and then alarms sounded throughout the base.
Lin Xiaolin's eyes lit up. The opportunity had come. Just as Sableye was distracted by the shockwave, Lin Xiaolin released Gengar. Sableye tried to grab Lin Xiaolin, but Gengar blocked it and protected Lin Xiaolin behind it.
The tremors grew stronger, but Soul Reaper glanced at Gengar and Lin Xiaolin, then turned and ran away.
It seemed that Sableye realized it couldn't stop Gengar, so Lin Xiaolin didn't pay much attention.
"Gengar, take me away!" Lin Xiaolin didn't know where to run, so he could only ask Gengar to carry him away.
Gengar picked him up and flew outside. Outside the room were rows of room doors, and Lin Xiaolin guessed that this was probably a dormitory-style place.
Gengar carried him around aimlessly. At this time, the tremors of the base became more and more obvious. People brushed past him from time to time, but at this time everyone was concerned about escaping and no one cared whether he was a member of the organization or not.
"Gengar, follow them! They definitely know how to get there!" The base was already collapsing, and the surroundings were incredibly noisy. Lin Xiaolin could only yell commands at Gengar.
Gengar immediately understood and followed the crowd. Sure enough, after many twists and turns, Lin Xiaolin followed the group to an emergency escape route. Gengar picked him up and flew upwards first.
After flying for a while, they saw a light ahead. Lin Xiaolin's eyes lit up; they could finally escape.
Just as Gengar carried him out of the cave, Lin Xiaolin felt Gengar throw him out directly.
Lin Xiaolin, who was thrown out, rolled several times on the ground until she crashed into a tree and stopped. When she got up, she saw Sableye and Gengar fighting at the door, with four Pokémon following behind Sableye, watching her intently.
It turns out that Gengar sensed danger as soon as it came out and threw it far away.
Lin Xiaolin tried to stand up, but her right leg was too weak, and she stumbled and fell to the ground. When Lin Xiaolin looked down, her entire right leg was black, and she had no feeling in her calf.
Lin Xiaolin's head went blank. He didn't feel any pain, only a buzzing in his head. Gengar had tried its best to throw him away as soon as possible, but it was still injured in the right leg by Houndoom's Flamethrower.
"Ahhh!" The belated pain spread throughout Lin Xiaolin's body. Lin Xiaolin lay on the ground, clutching her thigh, as endless pain surged through her body.
Gengar didn't have time to observe him right now. He not only had to fight Sableye, but also had to prevent the other four Pokémon from ambushing Lin Xiaolin. He was already being beaten back step by step.
"Boy, you dare to run away! If I don't live, neither will you!" the black-robed man behind the five elves shouted hysterically.
He had dropped his disguise, his sinister eyes fixed on Lin Xiaolin, his face ashen, and a wound running from his forehead to his chin.
Lin Xiaolin couldn't hear anything anymore; the pain had made him lose all sense of awareness. The pain was getting worse and worse, and Lin Xiaolin felt his consciousness beginning to fade.
Lin Xiaolin's vision began to blur as she looked at Gengar blocking her way.
"I'm sorry, Gengar, I dragged you down with me in the end." These were the last words that came to Lin Xiaolin's mind.
------
"Master Xiao, we are sorry. This is entirely the responsibility of our protected area. We will do everything we can to compensate you!"
At this moment, most of the Xiao family members were present outside the emergency room, all sitting outside. The trainer who was respected by all the forest rangers bowed to the Xiao family members sitting outside the emergency room and apologized sincerely.
Grandpa Xiao was covered in dust and looked travel-worn. He held a cigarette in his right hand. Grandpa Xiao hadn't smoked in a long time. He used to smoke often when he was young, but Lin Xiaolin's grandmother forced him to quit.
Grandpa Xiao took a deep drag on his cigarette and exhaled a puff of smoke.
"Alright, let's look at Xiao Lin first." Old Master Xiao's words were soft, but everyone could see his grief.
"Which of you is a family member?" A nurse came out of the emergency room.
"Me!" Old Master Xiao stood up immediately, and Lin's parents didn't say anything.
"The patient has multiple fractures, and his right leg needs to be amputated. Please sign this critical condition notice and then pay the fees." The nurse handed a critical condition notice to Mr. Xiao.
Grandpa Xiao signed the contract without hesitation, and the trainer who was about to become a Champion also rushed to pay the fee.
"Doctor, you must save my grandson!" Old Master Xiao solemnly handed back the critical condition notice.
"Don't worry, we will do our best. Also, smoking is not allowed in the hospital, so please be mindful of that." After saying that, the nurse left, and Grandpa Xiao quickly stubbed out his cigarette and threw it into the trash can.
Chapter 46 Wake up
A short while later, a tall man walked over. This man was incredibly strong, probably over two meters tall, with clearly visible muscle definition on his arms.
