Why would you need a girlfriend when you have Pokémon?

In short, Liliae seemed to see that Masked Cat was enjoying Lowe's massage and they looked very comfortable, so she became curious and wondered what Lowe's massage felt like.

"Well, you're still embarrassed about physical contact, right? If you don't mind, I can give Liliae a foot massage, which is also very useful for relieving fatigue~"

I don't know if it was intentional, but Lowe's tone sounded a bit playful. Yasha on the side understood Lowe's bad taste, and when Lowe's gaze turned over, she quickly waved her hand.

"No, no, no, foot massage or something like that, I've tried that before, um, forget it!"

"So, what about Liliae?"

Liliae seemed to have no idea of ​​how powerful she was. She had no idea that hell was in front of her. She nodded unconsciously and said, "That sounds interesting. Okay~"

"Okay, come this way please~"

Lowe immediately stood up and smiled as he made way for Liliae. This time, even Kamen Meow and the others did not react at all and seemed to cooperate by making way for them.

"?"

To be honest, even if she was a bit of an idiot, Liliae had already noticed something was wrong by this time.

"Ah, did I fall into a trap by accident? Now that I say I don't want it, can I still return it?"

Facing the girl with an uneasy smile, Lowe calmly reached out his hand and gently pinched the girl's feet.

...Well, this is not the first time that Lowe has touched Liliae's feet. After all, he had direct contact with her when he was treating the poison wound on her leg when they first met.

It is precisely because of such experiences that I may still be shy about other physical contacts, but there is no problem here because I have touched it before anyway.

The girl's feet are very perfect. You can tell that they are well maintained on a daily basis. There are no calluses or dead skin at all. The delicate skin is white and tender, as smooth as a freshly peeled egg.

Apart from taking good care of yourself, one can only sigh at the importance of age. If you were in your forties or fifties, you would not have such tight skin no matter how well you took care of yourself. This is the advantage of being young.

Liliae has walked quite a bit these days, but probably because her shoes are quite high-end and protect her feet very well, she hasn't gotten any calluses at all despite walking so much.

With her feet pinched by Lowe, the girl's toes twisted uneasily. Her skin, which had turned slightly red from soaking in the hot spring, now came into contact with the night breeze and became extremely sensitive to the alternation of cold and heat.

What's more, the warmth and touch of Lowe's palm made her feel a little embarrassed.

But soon, this embarrassment was replaced by a feeling of numbness and itchiness.

Lowe stretched out his thumb and pressed the big acupoint on the sole of the foot. He used less than one-third of his strength and exerted a little force, but Liliae made a very bad sound.

It was hard to tell whether it was painful or comfortable, but it was definitely not a sound that should come out of a girl's mouth under normal circumstances. A sound that was extremely inconsistent with healthy standards just leaked out of her mouth.

"Wait a minute, wait a minute, this is..."

"Hey, hey, this customer, I only used less than 10% of my strength. Normal customers wouldn't even feel anything at this level~"

Lowe glanced at the Masked Cat beside him, who nodded happily.

"That's different. How can humans and Pokémon be the same?"

"But it's actually quite comfortable, right?"

"No, not that kind..."

Before he could finish his words, Lowe had already started the series of actions without hesitation. If it was just painful, then it would pass if he just endured it. Although it was a bit difficult for a pampered young lady like Liliae, it was not impossible for her to grit her teeth and persevere.

But this kind of soreness, numbness, itching and swelling is different from ordinary pain. It is just like pinching the nerve endings and exerting force, like an electric current rushing from the toes along the spine all the way to the forehead. The feeling is so stimulating...

She really wanted to beg for mercy, but just as Lowe said, after this strange discomfort, she actually felt an indescribable sense of relaxation.

However, the slight sense of relaxation that had just come up would immediately be replaced by a stronger feeling of soreness and numbness, so that the girl was up and down like a roller coaster between repeated torture and comfort.

She couldn't help it...

"…Surrender, I surrender!"

"I'm sorry, sir. This is a membership-only store. You cannot leave until the service is over!"

"That weird membership store is definitely not a legal business! I'm going to file a complaint. I really am going to file a complaint. If you stop now, I can consider an out-of-court settlement!"

"Haha, I'm really sorry, Miss, who do you think is behind this restaurant? Just be good and enjoy our special menu!"

"This is unreasonable, unreasonable, unreasonable, this is really unacceptable!!!"

"..."

Yasha on the side was in awe. From the halfway point on, it was just a casual skit between Lowe and Lillie. She originally wondered if Lillie was really upset, but seeing that she was in the mood to play with Lowe, she thought it shouldn't be a big problem.

Maybe this young lady has accumulated a lot of pressure in her daily life. After all, it is not easy to be "someone else's child". Although life with a mother who arranges everything is smooth, it is not necessarily easy.

Yasha could not empathize with this...

So seeing that Lilia seemed to be having a lot of fun, she naturally didn't say much...

After nearly forty minutes, Lowe stopped what he was doing, and Liliae lay there as if she had been burned out.

"Okay, today's service is over. Welcome this guest to come next time~"

“There won’t be a next time!!!”

Chapter 153 Welcome to visit next time~

“Look forward to this guest’s next visit~”

"There won't be a next time!"

Liliae couldn't help but raise her body and complain, then her whole body seemed to be drained of its bones and she slowly fell down.

But the moment she lay down, she suddenly felt unprecedented relief, as if all the burden on her shoulders had been lifted, and she felt an indescribable sense of relaxation in an instant.

"Al?"

She looked at her palms strangely, clenched her fists and then relaxed them. After repeating this several times, she finally confirmed that her body seemed to have really relaxed a lot.

"It feels like it's quite useful?"

"Of course, otherwise do you think I really want to torment people?"

Lowe made a joke, and Liliae turned away embarrassedly, "Because it really feels weird, but if that's the case, it doesn't seem like we can't do it more often~"

"Well, then, have a good rest. We still have to go hiking tomorrow, so there will be a lot of distance to walk..."

"Oh……"

As the night deepened, Chimney Hill...

Ever since the Chimney Mountain cable car broke down, the officials of Fuyan Town have been contacting people for repairs. After all, this cable car is directly related to the income of Fuyan Town and is the lifeline of Fuyan Town's revenue. Naturally, it must be repaired as soon as possible to ensure normal use.

However, the people sent by Fuyan Town have been carrying out repairs after going up the mountain, and they could not find the specific cause of the failure. Even after asking about the progress several times, they got replies such as "still under repair" and "no more trouble" etc.

"How about it?"

The top of Chimney Mountain was crowded with people at the moment. A circle of people gathered around the crater that was spewing thick smoke. Without exception, all of these people were wearing the same crimson uniform and carrying the same emblem.

These people are all from Team Lava...

...Including the man who appeared in Meteor Falls before, Chi Yansong, the leader of the Lava Team.

Beside him, several people dressed as Lava Team nodded and replied, "We have fooled them, but it won't last long. I estimate that in two or three days, the people in the Alliance will find something unusual..."

These people are exactly the maintenance personnel arranged by Fuyan Town to inspect the cable car. As we can see now, these people are actually members of the Lava Team. Fuyan Town, as the town closest to Chimney Mountain, has been secretly infiltrated by the Lava Team.

Although the former Fuyan Town was guarded by the Four Heavenly Kings, and it was not so easy for external forces to infiltrate, that king is no longer there, and Fuyan Town actually only has one gym master who has just succeeded.

As a gym leader, Asha's strength is indeed only at the level of a newcomer, and there are indeed many aspects of matters other than combat that she is not familiar with.

Generally in this situation, either you have strong business capabilities, like Mr. Tiexuan, who used to be the planning director of the Da Zijin Energy Development Company and was responsible for the development of Zijin City.

Even though Zijin City is countless times larger than Fuyan Town, and there are so many positions and personnel in Zijin City's development plan, the Lava Team and the Ocean Team were unable to insert any internal supporters.

After all, if you want to play tricks and use some means, the old man hasn't lived in vain for all those years, and most of the Lava Team are no match for them.

Or it could be like Qianli, who is known for his brute force overcoming many other skills. This man is indeed not very cunning, but he is strong, strong enough to use his strength to not leave the traitor any chance to cause trouble, so it is meaningless to place a traitor around him.

It's like I lead ten soldiers and the opponent has 100,000 soldiers. Even if I can deploy all ten of my men as traitors to the opponent, how can I stand a chance of winning?

The opponent wins if A comes over. Faced with the power difference at the level of dimensionality reduction attack, what room for operation does the insider have?

But Fuyan Town was different. It gave the Lava Team the opportunity to fully display their abilities and they successfully placed a number of insiders here. At this moment, the people in the Fuyan Town maintenance team were the people of the Lava Team. They said they were doing maintenance, but in fact, they were the ones who broke the cable car in the first place.

Of course, after all, there is a gym in Buyan Town. Maybe Asha can't do it herself, but she has the Alliance behind her... Even if the Alliance is slow to react and can't handle it in three to five days, they will definitely find something unusual.

“…That’s enough.”

However, Chi Yansong was very calm. After all, all the preliminary preparations had been completed, and all that was missing was the last breath. Now that the most important meteorite was in hand, the rest could be done in less than two days.

Having said this, he turned his gaze and looked to the side...

...Connected to the crater, there is a strange device. This is naturally the work of an insider of the Lava Team. After all, under normal circumstances, no one would come to the top of Chimney Mountain. Most people would take the cable car to the halfway point of the mountain, and then go down the mountain along the bumpy mountain road to travel to Fuyan Town.

There are a large number of wild Pokémon lurking on the top of Chimney Mountain. Not to mention ordinary people, even ordinary trainers may not be able to get up there.

After all, these Pokémon have been trained by the Fire King of the previous Four Heavenly Kings. Although they have not been conquered by him, they have been trained as training objects and are much stronger than ordinary wild Pokémon.

Moreover, the fire system itself is a major offensive system, with its high damage, which naturally makes this place even more dangerous.

Relying on the protection of the natural environment and the support of insiders, Fuyan Town managed to install the machine right under the eyes of the alliance.

At this moment, the meteorite taken from the Meteor Falls is placed in the translucent cover on the upper part of the machine.

The meteorite has been awakened by Xijiana, and is now flashing with a bluish-white light. The strange energy contained in the meteorite is extracted by this device and injected into Chimney Mountain.

It won’t be long, it won’t be long anymore, just two or three days at most, the energy in the meteorite will be fully stimulated, and then... the legend sleeping under this Chimney Mountain... will once again wake up on this land.

"How beautiful..." Chi Yansong... This tall and thin man stretched out his hand and stroked the meteorite through the shield. Although he did not touch it directly, his movements were still so cautious, as if he was touching a precious work of art.

"...This is the legend that descended upon this land thousands of years ago. It has been dormant for so long, you must be impatient now, right? Haha, don't worry, it won't be long before I will once again let everyone see your glory, the great existence that dominates this land!"

Although they were thousands of miles away, it seemed as if everyone at the scene could follow the crater of Chimney Mountain and see the figure sleeping quietly under the billowing smoke...

...God of the Earth!

Chapter 154 Concave and Concave Mountain Road

——Chimney Mountain-Concave and Concave Mountain Road——

This is currently the only mountain road to the top of Chimney Mountain. It is a dirt road that has been trampled by trainers and Pokémon who have gone to Chimney Mountain for thousands of years. It has never been properly built, so it is very rugged.

In many places, it was impossible to walk through them normally. One could only take one step deep and one step shallow, stepping on the protruding parts of the mountain as footholds, and staggering up a little bit at a time.
