Chapter 383 The Alliance is afraid you'll sell Crescent Feathers by the pound
Bilan stared at the photo of Acerola on her phone screen, then looked at the innocent-looking man beside her, and the more she thought about it, the more uneasy she felt.
She never imagined that Li Luochen would like this type of younger sister.
How come I didn't notice it before?
Yes, it's my own fault.
She began to mentally review the girls who had come and gone from Li Luochen's life: Lucia, Lillie, Shi Xintong...
Which one of them isn't petite and cute?
Moreover, if Li Luochen weren't a lolicon, he would have already taken Mingyi as his concubine.
But he didn't!
He always maintained that distance, neither too close nor too distant, showing consideration when needed and joking around when appropriate, but never crossing the line!
Now it seems that Li Luochen is just a lolicon!
Not the kind that little girls don't like!
Azure slapped her thigh, suddenly realizing the solution.
"You," she pointed at Li Luochen's nose, "so this is your taste."
Li Luochen wanted to explain something, but looking at Bi Lan's confident expression, he suddenly felt...
It seems like nothing I say will make a difference!
Since I can't convince Azure, I'll have to find a way to convince her myself.
"Hehehe..."
"What are you going to do?!"
Li Luochen remained silent and nodded slightly.
......
......
By the time Li Luochen finished his business, it was already night.
The dojo fell silent, with only the sound of two footsteps echoing in the corridor.
Bilan was helped by Li Luochen to walk towards the room—her back was really sore at this moment, she didn't expect that taking care of a leader-level pseudo-legendary Pokémon would take so much effort.
She turned her head and stared at Li Luochen with a resentful expression.
Li Luochen chuckled awkwardly, feeling a little guilty under Bi Lan's gaze.
He helped Bilan to a stop at the doorway and took a step back.
"Um... I'll go check on how things are going with Darkrai. You rest first."
After saying that, without waiting for Bilan's response, she turned and left, walking much faster than usual.
Azure stood at the door, watching his figure disappear around the corner of the corridor, and couldn't help but roll her eyes.
"She ran pretty fast," she muttered, pushing open the door to the room.
Just as Li Luochen stepped out of the room, his phone vibrated.
He looked down and saw that it was a message from Ye Tian.
[Ye Tian: I've applied to the League headquarters for you. There's a secret realm above the sea in Rongcheng that's perfect for injured Pokémon to recuperate. I've sent the address to your email; you can just go there.]
Li Luochen paused, surprised that the phone call he made during the day had been completed that very night.
He leaned against the wall in the corridor, his fingers tapping rapidly on the screen.
[Yan Yanyan: Understood, thank you, Committee Member Ye.]
The message was sent and received a reply almost instantly.
Ye Tian: Ugh, what are you talking about? It was just a small thing.
Li Luochen looked at the message and a slight smile appeared on his lips.
Only Ye Tian would talk about the placement of a mythical Pokémon so casually.
However, he also knew that although Committee Member Ye spoke lightly, he must have put in a lot of effort behind the scenes.
The secret realm above the sea is a place specifically for recuperating from injuries; such places are hard to find.
He put away his phone, already having made up his mind.
Once Darkrai is settled, I'll have to treat Ye Tian to a meal.
Yes, I'll personally treat them to a meal in the capital.
Following the navigation, Li Luochen arrived at the outer perimeter of the secret realm above the sea near Rongcheng.
Night had fallen, the sea shimmered, and the moonlight shattered into a silvery white on the crests of the waves.
The base was built on a high ground by the sea, with several searchlights illuminating the surroundings. Several temporary buildings were neatly arranged, and a vortex-shaped entrance floating above the sea could be vaguely seen in the distance.
That is the entrance to the secret realm.
Several staff members wearing Fujian Provincial Union uniforms were stationed here.
They were chatting idly when they heard footsteps and all turned around.
Upon seeing that the person who had arrived was Li Luochen, the middle-aged man at the head of the group immediately put on a smile and strode forward to greet him.
"Mr. Li Luochen!" He extended his hand warmly. "It's an honor to meet you! Committee Member Ye has already informed us that you're bringing an injured Darkrai to recuperate."
Li Luochen reached out and shook hands with him: "Thank you for your hard work, it's so late."
"No trouble at all!"
The middle-aged man waved his hand, his tone carrying a hint of congratulations, "Congratulations, Mr. Li, on subduing Darkrai in the Carlos region. This is a major event for our Eastern Alliance! When Committee Member Ye mentioned this on the phone, all of our colleagues at the base were shocked."
Several young employees behind him nodded in agreement, their eyes filled with envy and admiration as they looked at Li Luochen.
Li Luochen smiled and said, "Just lucky."
The middle-aged man clearly didn't believe him, but he didn't press the matter; he simply smiled and gestured for him to proceed.
"The entrance to the secret realm is ready for you; you may enter at any time. We have already set up energy monitoring devices and basic medical facilities inside. Please feel free to ask if you need anything."
Li Luochen nodded, took out the deluxe ball containing Darkrai from his waist, and gently rubbed it in his hand.
"Come on, let me show you your new home."
Inside the secret realm, the starry sky stretches for thousands of miles, with the dazzling Milky Way stretching across the sky, more magnificent than anywhere else in the outside world.
Floating islands of all sizes dot the surrounding area, with lush vegetation and babbling streams. Several Pokémon stroll leisurely on the grass in the distance, occasionally letting out a few cheerful chirps.
The environment is indeed very good, and the resources are plentiful, so it's certain that Committee Member Ye didn't just give him a perfunctory answer.
But Li Luochen frowned slightly as he looked at the leisurely Pokémon.
There were quite a few Pokémon around, about twenty or thirty at a quick glance.
This made him a little nervous, after all, Darkrai was seriously injured and unable to control his Nightmare Aura.
If we accidentally let these Pokémon fall into a nightmare, wouldn't that hurt them?
"There's something I need to explain first." Li Luochen stopped and turned to the middle-aged man who was leading the way, expressing his concerns, "Darkrai can't control its abilities right now. I'm afraid something might happen if it's left in such a densely populated area with Pokémon."
Upon hearing this, the middle-aged man gave a knowing look and waved his hand with a smile.
"That's no problem. Rest assured, we have Cresselia living here, which can stand against Darkrai."
"Creselia?" Li Luochen paused, his face showing obvious surprise. "How come I didn't know? There's Cresselia in this secret realm of Rongcheng?"
The middle-aged man chuckled: "When Committee Member Ye was still a branch minister, he ordered that you not to know."
"Why?" Li Luochen was even more confused.
The middle-aged man scratched his head, his expression somewhat subtle, as if he was carefully choosing his words. Finally, he confessed honestly:
"I'm afraid you'll pluck Cresselia's crescent feather and then sell it by the pound."
Li Luochen: "..."
