Chapter 161 Unknown Electric and Dragon-type Pokémon
October 10.10th, sunny.
Three days later.
There are four days left until the final of the Truth Dragon Phoenix Cup.
Li Luochen, responding to the request of the real bird, arrived at Rainbow Plaza and took on the role of referee for the battle following the opening ceremony.
In addition to him, Lance, the general manager of Rainbow Security Group, and Apollo, the general manager of Yuhong Amusement Group, will also serve as referees.
"Mr. Li Luochen, I have long admired you."
A young man with short, cyan hair and wearing a black hat stood smiling in front of Li Luochen, shaking hands and talking to him.
"You must be General Manager Lance that Uncle Sakaki mentioned, right? I didn't expect someone my age to be able to hold such a position. It seems Mr. Lance is quite capable."
Li Luochen made a joke.
And in his heart, he also asked the system to open Lance's account.
Name: Lance
Gender: Male
Place of origin: Chengdu
【Items to bring: None】
[With Nidoran as a Pokémon...]
[Note: The four generals of Team Rocket are high-ranking officers, possessing mid-level Elite Four level skills.]
Are they relatives? No
[Relationship with host: Strangers]
As expected, it's top-tier level.
Team Rocket's regular officers are only at the Gym Leader level, while senior officers generally need to have Elite Four level strength.
"Not at all, it was just luck. I started training Pokémon from a young age and only reached the Elite Four level at this age. Mr. Li Luochen, you only spent less than two years to be able to secure a place in the Gym level. Such talent is truly beyond my reach."
Lance and Li Luochen exchanged pleasantries.
Apollo, who had been listening for a while, also joined in the mutual praise.
It wasn't until the opening ceremony was approaching that the three reluctantly stopped their praise.
"Brother Luo Chen, if anyone is foolish enough to cause you trouble, just tell me."
Apollo, Lance, and Li Luochen stood arm in arm, with the former two displaying an air of righteousness.
The real bird watching from a short distance was speechless.
When the time came, the opening ceremony began immediately.
There were quite a lot of people here today.
The powerful and influential people of Fuzhou were all present.
Of course, most of them were to establish connections with the Rainbow Group.
Others heard that if they performed well in the battles after the opening ceremony, they might have a chance to be invited by Li Luochen to become apprentices at the Minrong Martial Arts Academy.
This is an apprentice, after all!
When the time comes, if you tell others that he studied at the Minrong Martial Arts Academy, they'll know that he did so.
That would at least give Minrong Martial Arts Academy some face.
In Fuzhou, Li Luochen's reputation spread far and wide.
No one knew whether Li Luochen was protective of his own.
If you happen to meet someone from the Minrong Martial Arts Academy, you'll definitely treat them with the utmost respect.
The opening ceremony was brief.
After the ribbons were cut, Masato, as the representative, gave a speech.
Then came the battle phase.
All the contestants were senior high school students.
There are still more than six months until the college entrance examination.
Li Luochen observed these battles with complete concentration.
In the end, all he could manage was a sigh.
There were no trainers who met his standards.
But after all, he's a senior in high school and has only had Pokémon for less than three months, so it's understandable.
Being a referee at Rainbow Square this time was secondary.
After the match, Zhenniao brought Li Luochen to the office.
Inside the office stood a young man with sharp eyes and bright eyebrows, who looked to be a year older than Li Luochen.
The young man had bangs on his forehead, wore a pure white shirt, capri black trousers, and glasses on his nose, and looked very refined.
"Mr. Li Luochen, this is Chen Wenxuan from the Chen family in Shanghai."
Zhenniao introduced this person to Li Luochen.
The Chen family of Shanghai?
Li Luochen had heard about it.
That was a large family that specialized in flight.
They are on the opposite side of the Ao family, another major family in Shanghai.
"Mr. Chen Wenxuan, this is Li Luochen, the owner of our Rainbow Plaza."
"Please, have a seat."
Zhenniao moved the ergonomic chair over and let the two of them sit down. Then, he left them in the office to chat, saying that "Rainbow Plaza just opened today and I have to take care of some things."
No one spoke up in the office.
Li Luochen propped his face up with one hand, looking Chen Wenxuan up and down.
Of course, you can't see anything from looking.
While observing, Li Luochen would use his wave-guiding power to determine what kind of person was standing in front of him.
As mentioned before, you can judge a person by their color.
The person in front of me is white.
Pure white!
If Lance and Apollo hadn't both been black, I would have almost thought there was something wrong with my Aura.
Let's just say that.
Chen Wenxuan is the third trainer I've seen to have "Pure White," and one of only two left.
The first and second place are Cattleya and Lucia, respectively.
However, due to various reasons.
Cattleya has been tainted with yellow.
Some might ask, why isn't the innocent and naive Shi Xintong pure and innocent?
Li Luochen commented that all that girl thinks about all day is how to comfortably be a pendant.
They've been living like royalty for ages!
Keke, get back to business.
Clearly, what this young man is about to say is 99.9% credible!
"Sir, is there something on my face?"
Chen Wenxuan noticed that Li Luochen had been staring at him for a while. He reached out and touched his face, then took out his phone to take a selfie to check if there was anything on his face.
No, you are very clean.
Li Luochen waved his hand and sat down in the chair without any restraint.
In contrast, Chen Wenxuan sat upright, looking as if he had been specially educated.
The two are worlds apart.
There was another moment of silence.
Li Luochen took the initiative to start the conversation, asking, "What exactly is this secret realm you mentioned, and the 'secret seasoning: sourness'?"
That's right.
When it came to business, Chen Wenxuan methodically took out various documents and handed them to Li Luochen one by one:
"My father, Chen Moxuan, is the current head of the Chen family in Shanghai. He was recently transferred by the Alliance to the Rongcheng branch of the Alliance as the deputy minister."
Five days ago, a new secret realm was discovered on an island near Langqi.
"My father has sent people into the secret realm to investigate and confirmed that there is an unknown Pokémon with the strength of a mid-level Gym Leader and the type Electric/Dragon residing inside."
"At the same time, an ingredient was also found inside. After expert identification, it was confirmed to be 'Secret Seasoning: Sour,' so we would like to invite you to enter the secret realm together."
After Chen Wenxuan finished speaking, Li Luochen had also finished reviewing the materials.
An unknown Electric/Dragon-type Pokémon, exuding an aura of ancient wilderness...
Aside from the Galarian region's fossil Pokémon Rathalos, only the Paradoxical Pokémon Damperk meets this condition.
Even if it isn't, there's still a guaranteed "secret seasoning: sourness".
Now, it's time to take Chef Papa down into the secret realm again!
"But I have a question: why did you contact me in the first place?"
Li Luochen felt that he was not familiar with Chen Wenxuan, so why would the other party want to call him?
He even checked the system to see if there was any connection, but it turned out they were not related at all, so he really couldn't figure out why he would consider him.
But Chen Wenxuan's face was full of sincerity: "My father told me to find an opportunity to get to know you, to try to handle the relationship well, and not to be your enemy."
Li Luochen: ……
This child.
Perhaps he's missing a screw?
