Pokémon: Rise of Evil

Chapter 341 Zhemei

At this moment, a crisp sound was suddenly heard. It was the sound of a dead branch being stepped on and broken.

Although the sound was slight, it did not escape the keen ears of an elite member of the Lightning Team.

He immediately became alert, scanned the surroundings with sharp eyes, and quickly used gestures to send danger signals to several other team members in charge of training.

After receiving the secret signal, the entire team immediately took action like well-trained soldiers. They adjusted their positions silently, formed a tight battle formation, and then rushed towards the direction where the sound came from without hesitation.

Everyone maintains a high level of alertness and quick reaction speed, as if integrated with the surrounding environment, ready to respond to possible threats at any time.

With a few rustling sounds, several members of Team Inazuma surrounded Shota.

Shota had no intention of training them, and without waiting for the leader to ask, he took off his hood.

When Shota took off his hood, the muscles of these elite members of Team Lightning tensed, as if they were ready to attack at any time. The daggers they pulled out from their backs gleamed coldly in the sunlight, and their hands were placed on the Poké Balls at their waists.

But when Shota showed his whole face, they all stood still, made gestures of offering their hearts, and shouted loudly:

"Führer!"

"Okay, don't be so serious. Now I have a task for you to do. Deliver this letter to the person in charge of the village near Shuijing City. Remember, the sooner the better."

As he said that, Shota threw the letter in his hand to the elite member of the Inazuma Team who was leading the team, and left here in an instant.

Looking at Shota disappearing on the spot, several elite members of the Inazuma Team spoke loudly:

"Yes, Führer!"

Shota couldn't hear what they said, but that didn't affect his belief in their loyalty. After all, they were all carefully selected fanatics.

After returning to the Second Legion's temporary tent, Shota immediately ordered the messenger to call over several important figures of the Second Legion.

In less than a moment, a man wearing a monkey mask walked in. Before Shota could ask, the man with the monkey mask spoke:

"The other two have died in the battle. I am the lucky one who survived."

Listening to the speech of the monkey-faced masked man, Shota had a clearer understanding of Zheshui's cunning and scheming.

However, a lean camel is bigger than a horse. The Second Legion should still have enough strength. Otherwise, it would be a waste to give Zheshui to himself. It would be better for him to join the First Legion.

Just when the monkey-faced masked man sat down, the curtain of the tent was opened again, but not very wide. Only a head poked in. It was a girl who looked very young and immature. She looked very delicate, like a porcelain doll.

Looking at this head and that face, Shota thought of Tetsuya.

Just as Shota was looking at her, she was also looking at Shota. Their eyes met. There was no emotion in Shota's eyes, but stars were twinkling in the eyes of this porcelain doll.

"Shota?"

"You recognize me?"

"Of course. My grandfather often mentioned you and said that you would be a great hero."

"So what's up with you?"

"My grandfather told me to learn from you, so I came here."

"So you really listen to your grandfather?"

"Yes, it is!"

Looking at the girl's bright, innocent smile, Shota felt that she probably didn't realize the sarcasm in his previous words.

Just as Shota was wondering whether she was sent by Zheshui to spy on him or to use his beauty trick on him, the girl still just stuck her head into the tent and showed no intention of coming in.

Shota couldn't help but ask:

"Aren't you coming in?"

"May I?"

She is quite polite, Shota thought, and then nodded.

After getting Shota's consent, the girl walked in with two big bombs, which really scared the monkey-faced masked man sitting next to Shota.

Shota didn't take it seriously, after all, he had seen bigger ones than this.

Looking at the girl's immature and shy appearance, Shota didn't know why, but he always felt that she was not sent by Zheshui to monitor him. After all, based on his super powers, the girl in front of him was probably only about 16 years old, similar to his current body.

Although Shota doesn't want to judge people by their age, time is very important to a person. After all, the more experiences one has, the deeper his understanding of how to survive will be.

Looking at her bulging military uniform and the look of surprise and a hint of fear on her eyes, she was probably a new recruit on the battlefield. As for her identity, she was most likely Zheshui's granddaughter.

Just as Shota was thinking this, the girl in front of him began to introduce herself, but she seemed to be too excited and stuttered.

"Hello, Commander Shota. My name is Zhe-Zhemei. My master... Elder Zheshui sent me here to count the casualties. I will definitely do my job well! Please keep me!"

She didn't seem to be pretending. After all, Shota felt that this guy was like an elementary school student, as if he had seen his teacher and was instinctively afraid, but also full of awe.

Looking at the tiny beads of sweat on her forehead, it was obvious that she was not good at dealing with people, or was very awkward.

After thinking for a moment, Shota didn't know what Zheshui was up to, but he decided to agree.

"Okay, you can stay."

Hearing Shota's answer, Tetsumei's tense face relaxed and revealed an extremely happy smile.

The two big thunders kept swinging up and down as she jumped for joy. The amplitude was not very large, and it was obvious that they were two good thunders.

This made the monkey-faced masked man swallow his saliva.

Shota coughed, bringing the monkey-faced masked man back to reality, and then spoke:

"Now report the current military situation. Don't report false information. I hate people who tell lies."

"Yes!"

After a while of reporting, Shota looked at the incandescent light above his head and fell into deep thought.

How should I put it? The elite troops of the Second Legion were almost wiped out, and the rest were just people who were stuffed in for convenience, and it was almost like a hodgepodge.

Zheshui is such a good person, Shota thought to himself, but his eyes were looking at Zhemei who was a little restrained.

Of course, this doesn't mean that Shota has any feelings for her. After all, after this war, everything related to Zheshui will be cleared out. He is just a little curious why Zheshui would send a silly girl to him.
