Bottom-tier trainers in the Pokémon world

No matter what Pokémon you catch, ownership belongs to the employer.

The Hunter's Guild rates the Pokémon they capture.

Then a portion of the payment from the employer is taken as a "bonus"—the more sprites caught, the better the sprites, and the greater the bonus.

Simultaneously.

If a hunter catches a Pokémon that they feel is suitable for them and wants to keep it, that's fine too.

However, a certain amount of hunter points or money is required.

Overall, it's quite humane; the more you work, the more you earn.

The lion's share definitely goes to the employers and guilds.

Of course, you can keep it to yourself if you want.

But it depends on whether you have the ability.

"Oh, right, there's one more thing that might be important to some of you."

Miss Q smiled and glanced at everyone.

"The three people with the highest scores this time will have the opportunity to receive twenty nominations, so don't miss it."

A considerable commotion broke out in the crowd.

Although it is just a nomination, it still needs to go through many complicated review processes such as identity verification, strength verification, and ability verification.

Furthermore, there is considerable competition, making the chances of success extremely low.

But this is also an opportunity!

Many people participated in this mission specifically for this opportunity.

Moreover.

competitor?

Why not just take them out beforehand?

"Three days. We can start now." Miss Q waved her hand casually.

Immediately, the hunters present filed in one after another.

Some went straight into the forest, some rode flying sprites to the depths of the forest, and some circled around the sea to the other side of the island.

"Joanna, wait a minute." Miss Q called out to Joanna, who was preparing to ride the Flying Dragon into the depths of the forest.

Upon hearing this, Joanna was taken aback.

Then he looked at Xia Yan.

The two exchanged a brief glance in the air.

Then Xia Yan gently patted the body of the Noisy Dragon and plunged into the thick fog.

Joanna then approached Miss Q with a respectful expression.

"That little boy, did you bring him?" Miss Q asked with interest.

Little boy?

Small?

If Xia Yan were here, I wonder how he would react if he heard others say that about him.

Joanna's expression was strange, but she still nodded and said, "Yes, his name is Yan Xia."

"What about their identity? Has it been investigated?"

"I've done a quick check, there shouldn't be any problems."

"Should I?" Miss Q playfully licked her lips.

"I'll do an investigation report for you when we get back."

Joanna felt a chill run down her spine.

This is the difference between trusted confidants and subordinates who join later.

She couldn't gain complete trust.

Yan Xia's plan was correct.

Miss Q squinted at the direction Xia Yan had disappeared in, her fingertips somehow pressed against her crimson lips.

She makes this gesture whenever she's really interested, and it's almost become her trademark.

Many men in the Hunter's Guild who witnessed this scene, and those who knew the rumors surrounding it, would probably have their legs go weak.

He said thoughtfully, "That's very interesting~~"

Joanna lowered her head.

I silently mourn for Xia Yan.

Being targeted by this Miss Q is not a good thing.

Countless people in the Hunter's Guild have already fallen victim to her.

Some of them are even buried somewhere unknown.

Because her nickname is...

"Black Widow" Hunter Q!

Chapter Ten: The Little Guys' First Collaboration

We entered a dense fog.

The surrounding scenery was almost completely obscured.

Xia Yan didn't rush to let the sound waves fall. Instead, he circled the island's border to get a general idea of ​​the island's situation and the situation of the Pokémon on the island.

It wouldn't be surprising to find any kind of spirit on an uninhabited island that doesn't belong to any region.

In fact, Xia Yan did see many Pokémon from various regions while wandering around the edge of the island.

This can be seen.

Actually, Pokémon from regions like Alola and Galar are not unavailable on the current Pokémon market.

However, they are relatively rare and expensive.

In addition, due to the strict control of the league, it is relatively rare.

After touring around, Xia Yan had a general understanding of the island's situation.

Most of the area is covered with dense forest, but there are a few areas that look completely different in color from the surrounding dense forest at first glance, which are probably rocky areas.

There is a mountain in the center of the island that is not very big, but it is very high and therefore very steep. There should be relatively few elves that can survive on it.

The image shows the Noivern landing in a relatively sparsely wooded area.

Xia Yan wasn't in a hurry to catch Pokémon.

He will certainly be arrested, but he might not make a point of doing so.

Instead of wasting time, you might as well find an opportunity to train your Pokémon. After all, it's a completely new place, and the wild Pokémon should be quite strong.

As for the Hunter's Guild's final points requirement?

Xia Yan said, "Why not just take someone else's?"

There are so many hunters on this island capturing wild elves; we can just "borrow" some from them later.

Xia Yan, who survived and rose from the ashes of that slum, was well-suited to the survival rules of this underground force.

So he was able to play his current role very well without making Joanna feel too uncomfortable.

Joanna was not completely controlled by Xia Yan, nor could she be completely controlled.

Even with the two Team Magma members he encountered in the Groudon dimension, Xia Yan was unable to completely control them.

Rather than control, it's more accurate to say that Xia Yan used the Aegislash's abilities to amplify the thoughts that already existed in the opponent's mind, amplifying them to the point that they could cover up some insignificant problems.

For example, when Xia Yan was with the two Team Lava members, he always used the identity of a Team Lava member, and when he was with Joanna, he always used the identity of Yan Xia.

Because he cannot achieve complete control.

Even if the Aegislash follows you around, at most you can only achieve complete control for a short time, or a subtle influence over a long period of time, somewhat similar to the effect of a "demon sword" seen in some movies and anime.

Moreover, everyone's willpower is different. The more and bigger the things you want to change, the easier it is to be discovered and fail.

Even if Xia Yan had the ability to completely control Joanna, he wouldn't do it.

The higher-ups in the Hunter's Guild aren't fools; they're bound to notice when someone changes so drastically in such a short time.

This is also why many underground forces don't use this method to control some newcomers in the alliance.

One problem is that it's difficult to control; such constraints could directly erase a person's talent.

Secondly, the alliance is not to be underestimated, and it will naturally take precautions in this situation.

Three, and not everyone can have superpowers like Xia Yan, who can guide the development of the subconscious.

all in all.

This method has many drawbacks and is difficult to implement, so Xia Yancai has never used it.

Otherwise, based on his understanding of the elf world, wouldn't he be invincible if he controlled all those geniuses who hadn't fully matured yet?

They take things for granted and treat others like fools.

In the end, he realized that he was the fool.

Xia Yan and Joanna remain partners.

The only difference is that the roles of superior and subordinate have been reversed between them. If Joanna knew Xia Yan's true identity, she would still tell the Hunter Guild's higher-ups without hesitation.

Therefore, playing a necessary role is essential.

His current identity is Yan Xia, a core member of the Hunter Guild!
