Chapter 63 I want a Master Ball!
Faced with Ye Tian's "Is that really so?" look, Li Luochen scratched his head and whistled:
"It's nothing. After all, a challenge with such generous rewards must have an entry fee. My entry fee wasn't expensive either; I only needed to create one admiral to qualify."
"It's really not expensive. But with such a low price, what if a lot of people sign up?"
Ye Tian became worried about Li Luochen.
A 1998 admiral is still a respectable rank for college students majoring in elves-related fields.
"It's a lottery. I was only planning to draw three. Besides, even if I don't win, I still have a gift from the Admiral. And I'm not forcing anyone to pay; it's not like you can't participate in normal gym battles."
It is officially permitted for dojo owners to stream live.
It's not just dojo masters in China who are doing live streams; dojo masters in other regions are doing it too.
Among them, the two gym leaders whose names start with "Qi" have a large number of fans. The former is already a blogger with tens of millions of fans, and the latter has a million fans.
They all started out by fighting in dojos and pulling off stunts.
"That's alright then, it's good that you have some basic knowledge."
Ye Tian breathed a sigh of relief when he saw that Li Luochen had made such thorough preparations.
But he quickly changed the subject.
"Ahem, let's not talk about that. The Alliance is going to issue a quest soon, see if you want to take it."
Ye Tian changed his expression, his face becoming serious as he said in a low voice, "The reward is quite generous; I think you should try to compete for it."
Upon hearing this, Li Luochen raised an eyebrow and said, "Explain in detail."
"During that period, some Team Rocket members who were too weak to be noticed actually managed to escape and fled to the waters near the Sea Altar. There's a secret place in the deep sea there, and I think they might be hiding there."
"At that time, there should be a mission to wipe out Team Rocket at sea or in secret realms."
"Our researchers have used special instruments to explore the area. Although there is no land inside, there is a special section where people and Pokémon can stand on it without sinking into the water."
Ye Tian glanced at the five Poké Balls on Li Luochen's waist and continued:
"However, to prevent accidents, it's still necessary to have a Pokémon that knows Waterfall, Surf, and Dive on hand, just in case."
"I remember, Luo Chen, your Pokémon doesn't know the move 'Dive,' right? If you need it, I can lend you Kingdra. It's at peak Elite level, just the limit for entering the Secret Realm."
Ye Tian was very concerned about Li Luochen's affairs.
Moreover, this secret realm is indeed fraught with danger.
If you're not careful, you can easily get into trouble.
This is mainly because the Eastern Alliance has a low level of development of the secret realm located in the deep sea; it is left there for anyone who wants to explore.
Of course, this benefit is only available to trainers in the Eastern Region.
Trainers from other regions want to come and explore?
No way!
"It's okay, I'll just have Gyarados carry me in."
Li Luochen shook his head and declined, as he planned to go in after Gyarados returned.
I just didn't expect that the secret realm there would have restrictions on entry.
Otherwise, he really wanted to bring out the group of gym-level Pokémon that were retired in the gym, or borrow a Dragonite from his uncle Lance and take it for a stroll in the secret realm.
What a pity, this secret realm has limitations based on strength.
Once you have a Pokémon that exceeds this level of strength, you won't be able to enter.
That makes sense.
If all the Pokémon in a secret realm are only elite-level, then a gym-level trainer can just rampage through and kill everything in sight.
Not only could it easily trigger a riot among local Pokémon, it could also cause spatial tremors, leading to the collapse of the secret realm.
This kind of restriction on secret realms can be considered a way of protecting trainers.
"Now that the foreplay's over, since there are so many restrictions, the rewards from the alliance must be quite generous, right?"
Li Luochen rubbed his hands together back and forth.
Ye Tian has said so much, and even specifically mentioned the generous rewards, so there must be something good inside.
"I remember there are two types of rewards. One type is that the Alliance Headquarters will assign this task and reward to various universities in Fujian Province. Judging from your school's reward, it will definitely be mainly academic credits."
"Wow, wouldn't that mean the university presidents could easily steal this reward?!"
"???"
However, what Li Luochen said was not unfounded.
Previously, the Donghuang Alliance had indeed arrested a group of high-ranking university officials.
The reasons are obvious to those who know.
"Ahem, in that case, you'll be going down the path of being directly assigned to missions by the Alliance."
Ye Tian could tell that Li Luochen wasn't interested in credits, so he waved his hand and said, "As for the mission rewards, based on your strength and the contributions you made in the secret realm last time, I think you'll at least get a high-quality, late-blooming elf egg."
Upon hearing that it was a Pokémon egg that would eventually become a late bloomer, Li Luochen's bright eyes dimmed again.
"this one?"
"..."
Ye Tian fell silent after hearing the two words Li Luochen uttered.
Upon closer reflection...
It doesn't seem to hold much appeal for Li Luochen.
If he really wanted one, he would have had his uncle get it for him long ago.
Why go through all that trouble to complete tasks just to get an egg to slowly hatch?
Isn't that just creating trouble for yourself?
Ye Tian raised an eyebrow and asked, "So, what do you want?"
Li Luochen held up one index finger: "A Master Ball."
"?"
Just as Ye Tian was about to speak, Li Luochen shook his finger, interrupting him:
"President Ye, please don't be so quick to refuse. Whether it was discovering new Pokémon or arresting so many Team Rocket members during the Secret Realm exploration, I never asked for the reward."
"According to the Eastern Alliance's reward system, unclaimed rewards can be combined to exchange for higher-level resources. Considering my contributions, exchanging them for a Master Ball isn't unreasonable."
"Of course, not needing a Master Ball is fine too. Three sets of training resources for Dragon-type Pokémon that can be used at the Elite Four level are also acceptable."
Li Luochen weighed the value and then extended his middle and ring fingers.
Give me either a Master Ball or three Resources.
Li Luochen did not push his luck; instead, he stopped at the limit and maximized his benefits.
Ye Tian hesitated for a moment, then declined to agree to the offer.
Both the Master Ball and the three sets of training materials that can support the Elite level have to be transported from the league headquarters.
Just like a bank vault, branches don't have many things equipped with them; everything is centrally protected.
The same applies to resources.
It wasn't that Ye Tian didn't want to give it to Li Luochen.
Rather, it's because I don't have it at all.
Otherwise, he would have given the Master Ball to Li Luochen long ago.
"I'll report this to headquarters. The result will be sent to you via private message through the alliance app, and it shouldn't take more than a week. If it's approved, it's like you've already used up your reward in advance."
Ye Tian thought for a moment and then explained, "Master Balls are considered strategic resources. If the league doesn't approve them, they should be sent to you."
"No matter what answer headquarters gives at that time, I will personally send you another set of King-level supplies."
