I, Zhulan's childhood sweetheart, was trapped in Xicui.

For example, the blonde woman in front of me has the logo of the Lotz Group embroidered on her chest.

"Hello, Mr. Xu Li! I'm Oliver, the vice president of the Marrocomon Group." The woman suddenly spoke, "Our president would like to invite you to sit down..."

Xu Li stopped and said, "...Roz?"

It really comes to whatever you want.

But he doesn't want to get involved...

Olivia gave a professional smile: "Yes."

"No." Xu Li said, "I still have to go eat."

“…” Olivia was stunned for a moment, then her eyes widened slightly, and her emotions suddenly fluctuated.

That's Lord Roz's invitation!

That was Lord Roz, whom she admired the most!

How dare you refuse!!

"Lord Roz personally invited you." Olivia endured it and smiled. "Our group will have a special chef for you..."

"Oh." Xu Li said, "Why invite me? I'm just a Poké Ball-level contestant."

Olive's forehead furrowed slightly in anger.

How would she know!

Maybe Lord Ross wants to invest in this rookie trainer. After all, Lord Ross has a good vision!

Although the man in front of her was quite handsome, but...Olivia looked at him for a while, well, she had to admit: he did look like an excellent trainer.

But in the face of Lord Roz's invitation, this attitude!

It's no longer possible...

Just as Olivia was about to angrily scold Xu Li for being ungrateful, a middle-aged man's voice came from behind her.

"If Mr. Xu Li is just a Poké Ball-level trainer, I'd be ashamed..."

Olivia swallowed back her angry words and said, "Lord Roz~! Why are you here..."

"He just..." She wanted to tell Roz about Xu Li's attitude just now, but then she thought of the confusing words Roz had just said and shut her mouth.

Luo Zi didn't care. He looked at Xu Li with a smile and said, "Can we talk? Mr. Xu Li, I'm looking forward to your coming."

Xu Li: “…”

……

……

In the modern reception room on the top floor of the Lords Building.

Olivia reluctantly served the exquisite desserts one by one.

But I felt a little angry in my heart.

Seriously! This is Lord Roz's solemn reception room! How could such food be allowed on the table?

But she was helpless.

Because as Lord Roz's right-hand man, it is not difficult to see that Lord Roz attaches great importance to the man in front of him.

After placing the dishes on the table one by one, Olivia took her leave at Roz's gesture.

Xu Li didn't care, he picked up the pudding on the table and placed it in front of Xinye Miao, who also ate it without hesitation.

Roz smiled and said, "Mr. Xu Li is really meticulous in treating Pokémon."

Xu Li wiped the corner of Xin Ye Miao's mouth and said, "What else... just tell me what you want to say."

"I wonder if Mr. Xu Li knows anything about our Galar region?" Roz asked. "I hope to reach a cooperation with Mr. Xu Li."

"I'm just an ordinary trainer." Xu Li said.

"If you were just an ordinary trainer..." Ross's lips curled up, "then Sinnoh, Kalos, Kanto, Hoenn and other regions would not be so peaceful."

"Oh?" Hearing these words, Xu Li smiled, "You seem to know me very well."

Although Xu Li was surprised, it was normal for him to know Ross since he was not only the president of the Galar Monopoly Group, but also the president of the Galar Alliance.

"Yes." Roz nodded. "After my investigation, Mr. Xu Li, you are the most legendary trainer."

Xu Li: “…”

I felt a little ashamed to be praised like that by Roz.

"So I'd like to reach a cooperation with you." Ross returned to the point. "I wonder if Mr. Xu Li has heard the rumor that the Galar region will run out of energy in a thousand years at most."

"No." Xu Li said.

Roz: “…”

After coughing, he continued, "This is not a rumor. The reality is even more serious. We came to this conclusion through simulation."

"The Galar Particles, the source of energy for the Galar region, are now beginning to deplete. Perhaps within twenty or thirty years, society in the Galar region will collapse, and within a few hundred years, both humans and Pokémon will be extinct."

"Let me be frank. I want to awaken the legendary 'Dark Night' that unleashes Dynamax energy and re-inject Galar particles into the Galar region!"

"I believe that Mr. Xu Li, who has saved the world from disaster many times, will agree with my concept. Therefore, I have deliberately chosen to cooperate with you."

Xu Li was stunned for a moment: "Cooperate with me? What can we cooperate on? Besides...'Dark Night' is not a thing to play house with. The harm it has caused to the Galar region is enough for me to..."

Luo Zi smiled and said, "Mr. Xu Li really does understand."

"Of course I'm aware of the dangers posed by Dark Night. I've made numerous preparations for this, and I've even lied to the public, claiming Galar's energy wouldn't run out for a thousand years, so I can shoulder the consequences of this incident alone."

"However, the incident with the Carlos Flare team brought you to my attention, Mr. Xu Li. After investigating your deeds one by one, I have new hope... Perhaps, with Mr. Xu Li's help, we can truly minimize the impact of 'Dark Night'!"

Xu Li was speechless.

If you think about it carefully, it is feasible, but you should also be wary of the possibility that Roz is trying to cheat you.

But according to Xu Li's understanding.

Roz is a very ambitious person.

Even though his company has already controlled all the energy in the Galar region, he still did not forget to risk his life to awaken Eternity.

Moreover, everything he did was indeed for the development of the Galar region. Even if it caused a lot of harm, it can be said that his sins were in the present and his merits will last for generations to come.

—If the energy particles in the Galar region are truly depleting.

Xu Li felt that although Roz's description of the Galar disaster was exaggerated, there was indeed such a trend.

However, Roz is also a person who will do anything to achieve his goals.

Working with him... you could be backstabbed at any moment.

But Xu Li is not afraid.

When facing the Eternal, even if Ross wants to control everything, he will not be able to do so.

He thought about it, smiled and said, "Then let's discuss it?"

Roz also smiled: "Okay."

……

In the evening, Xu Li left the Rhodes Building with Olivia's reluctant farewell.

Xinye Cat was already fast asleep on Xu Li's shoulder.

Xu Li held the exquisite afternoon tea packed from the Rhodes Building in one hand.

In the other hand, he held a blueprint showing the traces of two Pokémon - Sora and Zangmarant.

Sword Dog and Shield Dog.

As the legendary hero who stopped the "Dark Night", the information was provided by Luo Zi.

Roz had prepared quite enough, but now it was all in Xu Li's hands.

There are also traces of the Three Sacred Birds of Galar, and even traces of the Kanto Ho-Oh Guards in Galar.

Although Roz didn't say it, it was not difficult for Xu Li to guess that Roz must have been behind the capture of Suicune.

Hiring Pokémon hunters is indeed unscrupulous...

Xu Li shook his head helplessly. While thinking, he saw a pink and purple figure waving at him from the corner of his eye.

He turned his head slightly, a little surprised: "Purple yu?"

Zi Yu came to Xu Li's side, head tilted slightly, hands behind his back, and said with a smile: "I just finished the battle in Gongmen City. Seeing Xu Li, I wanted to invite you to dinner, but it seems that you have already filled your stomach... How was it? Mr. Xu Li, how was the result of today's battle?"

Xu Li showed the trainer card in his hand to Zi Yu, "You're in the middle of your training, right?"

"So fast! So amazing!" said Zi Yu.

"Here you go." Xu Li handed over the afternoon tea he had packed from the Rhodes Building.

"Hey!" Zi Yu quickly stretched out her hands to catch it. "What an exquisite dessert, thank you... My Frost Milk Fairy will definitely love it when she sees it!"

.........

On the outskirts of Gongmen City's southern road.

Xu Li looked at Zi Yu beside him and asked doubtfully, "No need to send it off, right?"

"Huh?" Zi Yu said with a smile, "I didn't give it to you."

"You've given me such a precious dessert, so I have to fulfill my duty and help lead the way for you."

"I'm going to the southernmost part of the Galar region...it's a bit far." Xu Li said helplessly.

"Then you need me even more, don't you? Getting lost is troublesome." Zi Yu smiled. "Besides, it's boring to stay in Gongmen City all the time. My father has already left here. Xu Li, you are my only acquaintance in Galar."

Xu Li: “…”

Didn't you say you weren't familiar with the Galar region?

"Okay," he said.

He took out the Poké Ball, and with a flash of white light, Haxorus rubbed Xu Li affectionately with its pink cheek.

"So cute!" exclaimed Zi Yu.

"Woo..." Haxoron raised his head.

of course!

But just as he circled in the air for a few times, although the weather was clear, a bolt of lightning suddenly sounded!

It brushed past Haxorus and hit the ground, almost hitting Haxorus directly.

"Woo, woo?!" Haxorus was frightened.

Xu Li frowned: "What's going on?"

He looked toward the grass on the side of the road and saw movement there.

rustling...

There was a sound of grass being scratched.

A yellow saber-toothed tiger emerged from it.

Two big fangs, golden hair, strong limbs, and a pair of bright eyes staring straight at Xu Li under a helmet that looked like a steel throne. Everything seemed so majestic.

Thunder God!

Xu Li tilted his head and looked into Lei Gong's eyes.

"..."

The air gradually became silent.

Lei Gong opened his mouth slightly and was about to roar.

Sudden.

A red ray of light suddenly shot towards Lei Gong, and immediately, it turned into white mist and entered the Poké Ball.

——The Poké Ball in Xu Li’s hand.

Xu Li: “…”
