Pokémon: The Climb

About three months later, in a tavern in a small town.

"You want to submit the mission items?"

A fat guy wearing a gray cowboy hat was staring sharply at the person sitting opposite him.

A young man with an inexplicable and strange temperament.

"Are you from Ninth Brother?" The young man tapped his right hand on the table with a strange and unrestrained expression.

"Your name is You, right? That's right, Brother Ninth asked me to come. You said you wanted to hand in a task, so bring me the things to see!" The fat man stretched out his hand with a smile.

Yang Yan took out the prepared space ring from his arms, "The thing is inside, check it out!"

"That's not okay. I have to take the things back and show them to Brother Ninth. After all, Brother Ninth didn't tell me what the mission items were!"

The fat man picked up the space ring, turned around and prepared to leave, without giving Yang Yan a chance to refuse or change his words.

Seeing Yang Yan still sitting on the chair, a look of success flashed in the fat man's eyes, and a disdainful smile appeared at the corner of his mouth.

"You are too young. A newcomer is a newcomer. You are in bad luck this time. Fatty will teach you a lesson!"

He planned to buy some of the mission items when he went back. Although there were no good things in the low-level hunter's missions, no matter how small the mosquitoes were, they were still meat. When the number increased, they made a lot of money.

"It's good to have Brother Jiu's signature by my side. Just taking kickbacks from other people is enough for me to live a life of freedom. I no longer have to live a precarious and dangerous life. It's so cool!"

The fat man left the tavern happily, planning to contact the other people instructed by Brother Nine. On the way, he could check out any good things he liked among the mission items.

Little did he know that as soon as he stood up from Yang Yan, a Gengar sneaked into his shadow...

During this period, Yang Yan successfully got in touch with a clerk named "Brother Nine" through the captured contact information, and at the same time registered his hunter identity: "You"!

Yes, that's the identity he used when he used the ghosts!

Although Yang Yan was already accustomed to weaving various false identities, when he joined the bounty hunter, he thought about it and thought it would be better to get some snacks.

In the future, I am afraid that he will have to deal with the Hunter Alliance for a long time, so for the sake of safety, it is best not to use "Yangyan"'s Pokémon, and the Pokémon he prepared for other identities will all be lost because of their improved qualifications. He filed a record with the alliance and returned to the name "Yang Yan", so he could only use "You" as his identity as a bounty hunter.

In this way, at least Yangyan doesn't need to worry about preparing new Pokémon for his new identity.

After becoming a bounty hunter, Yang Yan began to accept tasks from "Brother Nine".

The assessment level of the tasks that can be received from the Hunter Alliance will not exceed the hunter's level + 2, which means that the highest level 1 Yang Yan can receive is level 3 tasks.

After some exploration, Yang Yan found that every two levels roughly corresponded to a level of strength according to the levels set by the Hunter Alliance.

To put it bluntly, tasks at levels 1 and 2 correspond to novice trainers, tasks at levels 3 and 4 correspond to junior trainers, and so on.

Therefore, the level 5 required to form a team means that the trainer must have intermediate strength.

This is actually lower than the advanced level recognized by the league as a team leader.

And what the person said during the previous interrogation was that only hunters above level 8 would be reviewed. Talents representing senior level or above will be reviewed.

Those who are advanced and above are elites. People who can reach this level definitely account for a small proportion of trainers. The arrangement of the Hunter Alliance is reasonable.

"It's really troublesome to improve the hunter level!"

Not long after the fat man left, Yang Yan also got up and left. He still wasn't used to being in a tavern.

It took nearly 3 months to gather the mission items to upgrade to level 3, which is indeed worth complaining about.

Although Yang Yan has long passed the novice stage, he can't find what he needs in the "advanced field". What can he do?

Being able to collect the mission items is already considered lucky.

"The things I submitted are enough to be promoted to a level 3 hunter. If that fat man dares to do anything..."

There was murderous intent in Yang Yan's eyes.

Long-term field experience made Yang Yan tainted by the smell of blood. Fortunately, he learned the meditation method, and the improvement of his mental power gave him a method to stabilize his mind. Don't be afraid that one day you will lose yourself because of too many kills.

Taking a deep breath, Yang Yan returned to his original state after a while.

"Looks like I have to stay here for a few more days..."

Mastering the meditation method does not mean that Yang Yan can completely ignore the impact of killing. It must be adjusted in time, otherwise the impact will become increasingly difficult to eliminate over time.

The reason why his temperament becomes strange and inexplicable is also the result of the alternating influence of murderous aura, blood energy, and spiritual power.

However, this state also completely distinguishes "You" from "Yang Yan".

No one would have thought that Yang Yan, who is eager for knowledge and has an easy-going and humble attitude, would have a connection with You, who exudes a strange, cold, and vicious temperament.

"Let's deal with the trophies first!"

After glancing around, Yang Yan walked all the way to the trading area.

Pay the money, set up a stall, and start selling the proceeds from these three months.

Various raw materials, herbs, ores, and elf eggs were placed on shelves at different levels by Yang Yan.

If it weren't for the fact that this town is officially managed by the alliance and cannot directly trade Pokémon, the thing that takes up the most space in Yang Yan's stall must be the Poké Balls he made.

Setting up a stall is relatively slow, but since Yang Yan plans to stay in town for a few more days, setting up a stall is a good choice to spend time.

There are no middlemen and his gains will not be compromised.

Because most of the things Yang Yan sells need to be collected in the wild and are relatively rare, the sales are pretty good.

Within a day, most items were sold out.

There are many merchants in the town who are struggling to buy and resell, so no matter how plentiful or rare the goods are, they can be digested quickly.

Only the elf egg business is not ideal.

Because a considerable part of the elf eggs Yang Yan sells are marked by him as "good qualifications", merchants who don't want to be cheated are naturally reluctant to take action easily without knowing the authenticity.

Let’s talk about it again. Isn’t it too fake to take out several good-level ones? Isn't this trick of taking advantage of someone a little too low-level?

Many people thought they had seen through Yang Yan's "trick", so for three days in a row, Yang Yan didn't sell any of his high-quality elf eggs.

Not all of the elf eggs he sells are of good aptitude. Some relatively rare Pokémon, if they are not about to hatch, even those with average aptitude will be taken away by Yang Yan.

this day.

When the last elf egg with average qualifications was bought, Yang Yan decisively chose to close the stall.

"Forget it, I wanted to make a guest appearance as the legendary 'Grandpa who delivers treasures'. Since no one wants to be the lucky one, there's no need for me to force it."

"The opportunity is here, but no one knows what it is, so you are not lucky."

After packing his things, Yang Yan was about to leave.

As a result, a sweet and clear silver bell sounded:

"Wait!"
