I caught a Pokémon

With no other option, in order to avoid causing more panic, he could only continue walking deeper into the alley, trying to avoid the endless stream of pedestrians outside.

But before he could take more than a few steps, he ran into a flamboyant woman who was clearly in the sex industry. The two had barely exchanged glances when the woman, in an even more unbearable state, let out a scream and turned to run away!

Despite wearing high heels, she moved incredibly fast. Xia You was about to reach out and call out to her to let her not panic, but in the blink of an eye, the woman had already disappeared!

Helpless, he looked up at the sky, then released his Gardevoir and had it use Teleport to teleport him above the alley, thus completely avoiding being noticed by passersby.

To be objective, Xia You's outfit was a bit scary and a bit eerie, but that was all; it didn't really cause any panic.

But it is precisely in those alleyways, in the dimly lit environment, with the added atmosphere, that misunderstandings can easily arise.

Of course, the main reason was the two people he encountered. They both seemed rather timid. If it were a normal person... well, even a normal person would want to leave as soon as possible if they encountered a strange person or monster dressed like that in a deserted, dark alley.

Standing on the rooftop, Xia You thought the matter would end there, and he could simply wait for Gengar to return. However, he had clearly underestimated the impact of the incident.

But not long after, he suddenly heard a police siren. The sound was very urgent and grew closer. Just as he was wondering what was going on, he saw several police cars suddenly stop outside the alley, and then several policemen quickly ran into the alley!

Xia You: ...

He lost count of how many times he had been speechless in such a short time.

Who would have thought that those two people actually mistook me for some kind of monster and even called the police?

One can only marvel at how fast these police officers respond to emergencies!

However, it was clear that she had already left, and the police officers had found nothing. But whether these officers were sharp-minded or had sensed something, one of them looked up at this moment and met Xia You's gaze!

"It's there!!"

He exclaimed in surprise, and the other officers all looked up and saw Xia You as well. As if they had spotted their prey, they became excited and rushed into the building next door, heading towards Xia You.

Xia You: ...

Why don't we usually see them being this shrewd and capable?

I'm too lazy to even complain anymore. Luckily, at that moment, Xia You's Gengar returned to his side. Ignoring the police, Gardevoir, guided by Gengar, grabbed Xia You's hand and used Teleport to teleport directly to the Galaxy Hundred Building in the distance!

……

Xia You had no idea that the Galaxy Hundred Building was one of Team Galaxy's two headquarters in the Sinnoh region, nor did she know that Cynthia had not discovered anything, but was simply enjoying the weekend in the city.

In short, through a series of coincidences, Xia You found herself standing in this mysterious building.

As one of the headquarters of Team Galactica, although it has more than ten floors and looks no different from an ordinary building on the outside, it has a lot of secrets inside and the security is quite tight.

Aside from the first floor, which is misleading and looks like an ordinary hall, the second and third floors are equipped with very complex mazes. This design helps to trap police officers or raiders who break into the building, giving the Galactic Team more time to make more appropriate decisions.

Unfortunately, with the combined efforts of Gengar and Gardevoir, this defensive system was bypassed.

This allowed Xia You to use Gardevoir's Teleport to appear directly in a storage room on the fourth floor of the building!

However, this does not mean that Xia You is safe. There are cameras installed everywhere in the building, and armed personnel are constantly patrolling, so he is always at risk of being discovered.

Fortunately, the members of Team Galactic have not yet discovered the intrusion, and everything seems perfectly normal.

“I just took a look,” Gengar whispered to Xia You. “The entire building is Team Galactic’s headquarters, that’s true, and the security is very tight, but there’s nothing particularly noteworthy. They’re not producing or researching anything. A large group of people are sitting in different rooms in front of computers, it’s more like…”

"It's more like an office, right?" Xia You nodded, already understanding, and continued, "In that case, this should be the administrative center of the Galactic Team, not the kind of place where they directly participate in operations. That's understandable, since it's in the city, and any little thing will attract people's attention, so most of the staff are probably just clerical workers."

Hearing this, Gengar couldn't help but feel disappointed.

"So, there aren't any powerful people here at all? What? This is so boring!"

“That’s not necessarily true.” Xia You clearly had a different opinion. He pondered for a moment and said, “In fact, the more important a place is, the more important it is to the Galaxy Team or other organizations. They often control their economy, internal personnel management and welfare, so there will inevitably be high-ranking officials stationed there.”

"Oh?" Gengar's eyes lit up. "So, we can cause a huge ruckus now!?"

Seeing its eager look, Xia You frowned and remained silent for a moment.

The celebration square is so close to here, why hasn't Zhu Lan taken any action yet?

I was hoping to see how she would make her move and then take advantage of the chaos, but so far there hasn't been a single sound.

Does she have to wait until night?

Are they waiting for other backup?

Come to think of it, after all, if you don't have enough manpower to deal with the entire building of Team Galactic, even if you defeat them all, how could you possibly capture them all with just one person?

But then I thought, even if Zhu Lan is ready, it would be difficult to make a move against so many enemies. If I could stir up trouble from within and coordinate an attack from the inside, wouldn't it be much easier to break through the situation quickly?

Even if there is no contact between the two, she will definitely rush over as soon as she discovers the change here!

With that thought in mind, he no longer hesitated and nodded to Gengar.

"It's perfectly acceptable to make a huge scene, and I think not only should we make a scene, but the bigger the better!"

Seeing that Gengar was about to make a move, Xia You quickly added, "But we still need to wait. We must find a suitable opportunity. After all, it's just me. So this time, we must directly capture their cadres and paralyze the command system here in one fell swoop. We absolutely cannot let them organize any effective resistance!"

Gengar stared wide-eyed at Xia You, bewildered. "Huh? Why are you telling me this? Haven't I always done things on your orders?"

Well, it seems I'm just wasting my breath...

I was even trying to respect Gengar's ideas, but it turns out this guy is too lazy to even think...

With a helpless sigh, Xia You ignored it and sent it out again to find the most valuable target in the area!

Just as he said before, only by carrying out a decapitation strike, instantly defeating the cadres here, and throwing these ordinary team members into panic, can the benefits of this operation be maximized!

And what if?

What if the leader of Team Galactic happens to be in this base? Wouldn't it be perfect to wipe him out in one fell swoop?

Of course, Xia You knew that the probability was very small, but no matter who was here, it wouldn't affect her next move!

Gengar passed through the wall and left.

After a moment's thought, Xia You took out a Poké Ball and put her Gardevoir back into it. Then she sent out her Metagross and Milotic to protect her.

After all, Gardevoir is his ace Pokémon, which is too eye-catching and makes it easy for people to associate it with him. Therefore, it is best not to use it unless absolutely necessary.

On the contrary, both Metagross and Milotic are very common Pokémon, and even if an enemy battles them, they cannot guess their identity from them.

He also believed that with the strength of his two Pokémon, he was fully capable of protecting himself, and even if he encountered Team Galactic's executives, he would be able to defeat them!

Shortly after Gengar left, Xia You was still patiently waiting, but then something unexpected happened.

Since these are offices for clerical staff, and there are so many things to handle every day, the consumption of materials is naturally very high. So, occasionally someone will come to the storage room to take some consumables such as printer paper and paper cups, or even to slack off or smoke.

Just now, a member with an unusual hairstyle and wearing a Team Galaxy uniform is sneaking towards the storage room.

Before he even got close, his hand had already reached into his pocket, where there was a half-smoked pack of cigarettes. For him, who had been sitting in front of the computer for half a day in a daze, this was a welcome remedy!

In fact, the building has set up many smoking areas to relieve work pressure, but for this team member, smoking in the storage room makes him feel more relaxed and allows him to enjoy a moment of freedom rather than chatting and bragging with others in the smoking area.

However, since it was a key warehouse and smoking was strictly prohibited, he always sneaked around, afraid of being discovered by the supervisor.

This time, he came here to slack off as usual, but before his hand could even touch the doorknob of the storage room, his ears twitched, and he felt that something seemed... off in the room!

Chapter 953 Jupiter

Because he felt guilty, this member of the Galactic Team was naturally particularly sensitive to sounds, which allowed him to faintly hear some subtle noises coming from the storage room.

It felt like there were several people hiding inside!

He was first startled, then deeply puzzled.

Strange, at this time... how come there's someone inside?

He used to come here almost every day as his place of leisure, but he had never encountered anyone else before. Why was it like this today...?

As a member of Team Galaxy, he was still alert enough to quietly reach out and place his hand on the doorknob, then slowed down before suddenly pulling it!

As the door to the storage room opened, a humanoid 'Gengar' instantly came into his view!

The next second, a powerful jet of water suddenly shot out, hitting the Team Galactic member directly and sending him flying backward until he crashed into a solid wall before finally coming to a stop!

Before he could even cry out, he had already lost consciousness due to the immense force.

Even so, this brief change was still captured by the people in the monitoring room. Just as the team member fell to the ground, a piercing alarm sounded throughout the entire building!

At this moment, the water flow had disappeared, and Xia You, protected by Milotic and Metagross, walked out of the room.

In fact, Xia You had already sensed someone outside the storage room when the Galaxy Team member stood there.

He hesitated, wondering whether he should hide for a while or wait for the team member to enter the room and then subdue him to avoid being discovered.

But after thinking it over, he gave up on the idea.

Now that I've already dressed up like this, what is there to worry about?

Just do it!

As for Gengar...

Plans can't keep up with changes. It just left, and we don't know when it will be back. We can't wait for it any longer!

Stepping over the unconscious team member, Xia You knew that she didn't have much time left. Without hesitation, she took off running down the spacious corridor.

To be honest, the building is quite nicely decorated. Sunlight streams in through the large windows, so even though it's a secret base, it's not too dark. The floor is carpeted, so even if you run quickly, you won't make a sound.

Along the way, all the civilian staff of the Galaxy Team who peeked out when they heard the alarm, whether men or women, were terrified when they saw him. They didn't even dare to breathe loudly, and they all leaned against the wall, watching Xia You pass by.

In such an atmosphere, facing a humanoid Gengar and two menacing Pokémon, everyone knew they were up to no good, so no one dared to ask a single question!

However, Xia You had no interest in these clerical staff and was not worried at all that they would make a move. She completely ignored them and went to the stairwell.

The piercing alarm continued to sound.

Even without using the walkie-talkie, Xia You knew that a large number of Galaxy Team members were rushing here. However, he was not afraid at all. Instead, he pushed open the door of the stairs and ran up to the upper level of the base.

Although he had never been here before, he knew that the higher the rank of the cadre, the higher up the hierarchy, so moving up... was definitely the right thing to do!

Just then, amidst a flurry of footsteps and shouts, a large number of Team Galactic agents appeared.

These people appeared from all directions, blocking Xia You's path in front and behind.

However, upon seeing this strangely dressed person, they didn't immediately attack. Instead, they cautiously asked, "Who are you!? Why are you entering our Team Galactic base!?"

No wonder they were so cautious.

After all, no matter how you look at Xia You now, he doesn't seem like a policeman or one of the Pokémon League members. Instead, he seems more like an unidentified villain, just like them. If he really is also walking in the dark world, it's best to find out some things first. Even if they really fight, they should at least know why Team Galactic has a grudge against the other side!

But Xia You was too lazy to waste words with them.

Just like those civilian staff members, he had no interest in the ordinary members of this action team, nor did he need to expose his voice. Therefore, he had no intention or need to communicate with them. Instead, with a wave of his hand, the two Pokémon beside him attacked at the same time.

A beam of energy shot forward, and a surge of water swept backward, unleashing a massive energy beam and a wave-like torrent that instantly engulfed the Galactic Team members who were blocking their way from the front and back!

The members of Team Galactic were surprised that, despite their overwhelming numerical advantage, this strange man dared to make the first move!

Caught off guard, those above were blown to pieces in an instant, while those below were swept away and collapsed to the ground.

It's clear that Xia You had no intention of holding back.

To him, everyone here is an enemy, including this building, which is enemy property. Therefore, he can use many powerful moves when launching an attack without much hesitation.

Anyway, we don't need to pay for the damage, and most importantly, we need to let people outside know what happened inside!

Just like now, the cannon beam pierced through the building's structure, broke through the exterior wall, and dissipated outside, while the water flowed down and into the floors below.

In the blink of an eye, quite a commotion was caused, and the entire building even shook slightly under the power of the cannon beam.

Taking advantage of this opportunity, Xia You, along with her two Pokémon, continued running upwards for a while longer.

However, he was soon blocked by a large group of Team Galactic members again.

This time, these people realized that the guy dressed as Gengar was there specifically to cause trouble, so they stopped saying anything and directed their Pokémon to attack Xia You.

Speaking of which, the standard Pokémon used by Team Galactic, just like Team Rocket, are mainly Poison-type, with some Dark, Normal, and Steel-type Pokémon mixed in.

Their attire is also quite interesting. Apart from the officers, the ordinary team members, whether male or female, all have similar light green mushroom or lotus leaf-shaped haircuts and wear tight-fitting combat suits with a futuristic and sci-fi feel. A huge gold 'G' is printed on their chest, which is both their team logo and the first letter of the Galaxy Team. Overall, they give the impression of being at the forefront of the times, but not quite understanding it, making them look rather incongruous.

At this moment, Xia You was surrounded by such team members, along with a large number of Dong Shi Miao, Zubat, Bronze Mirror Monster, Poison Skull Frog, and Tank Skunk.

In normal circumstances, no matter how powerful Milotic and Metagross are, they could not possibly fight against all these Pokémon at the same time.

However, this is a narrow corridor, and the number of enemies that can fight them directly is already small. In addition, the members of Team Galactic are also mixed in. In order to avoid hurting their companions, they dare not use wide-range moves, let alone powerful moves. It can be said that they are timid and hesitant in the face of Xia You's full-force attack, and they fight very frustratingly!

The enemy was already stronger than us, and with this restriction, the balance of power shifted even further.

It's clear that sometimes having a numerical advantage isn't a good thing.

But there's nothing we can do; they're fighting on their own turf.

The only thing that Xia You found troublesome was that although these people and Pokémon were not very strong, they kept coming one after another, as if they could never finish fighting. No matter how many times they defeated the people in front, there would always be someone to fill their place.
