Pokémon: The Climb

When Yang Yan came back, it was already close to 2 o'clock in the middle of the night.

Although it was late, the camp was brightly lit, and patrols could be seen everywhere, making it look like a scene of war preparation.

After passing through the bounty hunters' area and walking into the central camp, just as Yang Yan was thinking about where he should stay tonight, he heard a familiar voice from the side.

"Mr. Omu, this way!"

Turning around, Yang Yan looked slightly surprised, "Mr. Yicheng, why are you here?"

He had just arrived and had not yet reached the tent area. Except for guards and patrols, there should be no one here.

"Miss knew that Mr. Ohki might not be able to find a place, so she specially arranged for me to wait here for you to come back." Ichiro explained, while stretching his right hand in one direction, "Go this way."

Yang Yan followed and expressed his thanks, "Thank you for your trouble."

At this time, Yicheng noticed that Yang Yan's body was different from when he left. There was a lot of mud on his clothes. If he smelled carefully, he could smell a faint smell of blood.

"Mr. Omu, did you just experience a battle?"

Yang Yan nodded, "Yes, I encountered a small group of wild Pokémon coming here. They were probably the vanguard sent out to investigate, so I took action to deal with them."

Yang Yan said it casually, as if it was a trivial matter, but it was enough to cause waves in Yi Cheng's heart.

Not to mention the strength and number of these wild Pokémon, just at this time of night will make countless trainers wary and afraid to take action.

But when Yang Yan said it, there seemed to be no hesitation at all.

Although Yang Yan looks a little embarrassed now, at least he is not injured, which is already very difficult.

This incident alone gave Yicheng a little more confidence in Yang Yan.

Soon, they came to a tent.

Yang Yan originally thought that Qiuye Yinling and others would have fallen asleep at this time, but he never thought that the tent was still brightly lit.

This is obviously not right, the battle is coming, and the most important thing is to ensure rest.

Ichijo noticed Yang Yan's doubts, so he explained first: "It was originally time to go to bed, but just over 2 hours ago, the Aso Corps suddenly came back from under the ruins, and the huge noise immediately knocked most of the people away. After being awakened, the young lady was later picked up by people from the alliance."

"I see." But Yang Yan soon discovered something was wrong, "Only Aso Corps is back?"

Ichiro also knew the meaning behind this sentence, but he still nodded and said yes.

If only one of the three Heavenly Kings really comes back, the turmoil caused will never be what it is now, but the truth will not be known until Qiuye Yinling comes back.

"Mr. Omu, please rest first. I will inform you when the lady comes back." Ichijo said calmly while standing in front of the tent.

"Thank you!" After saying that, Yang Yan walked into the tent.

After washing up and putting on clean clothes, Yang Yan fell asleep.

In fact, if it weren't for the fact that he wouldn't come back at night, Qiuye Yinling would probably be worried enough to send someone out to look for him, and Yang Yan might just spend the night in the cave where he had just treated the injuries of the Pokémon.

After all, it would take more than half an hour to get back.

So Yang Yan, who was extremely tired, quickly fell asleep.

In a daze, Yang Yan felt movement around him.

With a jolt, Yang Yan immediately opened his eyes.

It turned out to be Heiluga who he left behind to keep watch.

Behind Heiluga, a figure could be seen outside the tent.

"Mr. Omu, are you awake?" Ichiro's voice came out.

"Wake up, I'll come out right away."

Yang Yan hurriedly put on his clothes, followed Yicheng, and soon came to another tent.

As soon as he entered, he saw the tired and sad Qiuye Yinling.

When she saw the two of them coming in, she forced out a smile, but it made people feel more and more heavy in her heart.

After the two of them sat down, Qiuye Yinling slowly spoke.

"Yang Yan, Uncle Ichijo should have told you about the return of Aso Corps."

Yang Yan said yes.

Qiuye Yinling nodded and continued: "According to the Aso Corps, nothing happened to the other two Heavenly Kings. They are just looking for the transmission channel. The reason why the Aso Corps came back is because someone must take charge of the overall situation."

After hearing this, everyone finally breathed a sigh of relief.

"It's good that nothing happened!" While rejoicing, Yang Yan asked again: "Did the Aso Corps say anything about other situations behind the Bronze Gate?"

"No," Qiuye Yinling shook her head, but then said: "But Aso Corps said that the transmission channel should be inside, but it will take time to find it."

"After arranging things, the Aso team will continue to search early tomorrow morning."

Yang Yan roughly understood that Aso wanted to pass news back and forth between the two places.

This was indeed the case. Aso only told Mr. Wu what was going on behind the bronze door.

Only Wu Lao could make suggestions on how to find the transmission channel, so Aso did not discuss this part of the information with everyone.

After all, his time is limited.

Afterwards, Aso made more detailed plans for the day's operations, and Akiba Ginzu listened to the battle plan for more than an hour before returning.

There weren't many parts related to Yang Yan, so he didn't pay much attention to it.

After roughly listening to it, he went back to rest.

It was not until 9 o'clock in the morning that Yang Yan got up again after sleeping well.

Surprisingly, Qiuye Yinling got up earlier than him.

"Just in time, I just brought breakfast, come and eat together." Ichiro raised the bag in his hand.

"Thank you!"

Several people were sitting on stools outside the tent. While they were watching other people busy, they were eating breakfast "leisurely".

"By the way, Yang Yan, did you find anything after you went out yesterday?" Qiuye Yinling suddenly asked.

"It's similar to what the alliance detected. I found that wild Pokémon are indeed gathering here. Some small teams should appear nearby today." Yang Yan said calmly.

"Ah, so fast?!" Qiuye Yinling suddenly stopped. Apparently, these words frightened her a little.

"There is a high probability that these wild Pokémon will be eliminated before they get close to the camp, so don't be nervous. It's still early for the real battle?" Yang Yan said intermittently while eating.

"That's it!" Qiuye Yinling breathed a sigh of relief.

As long as there is buffer time.

Because maybe Aso and the others would be able to find the teleportation channel soon, and everyone could leave safely by then, so she certainly hoped that those wild Pokémon would arrive as late as possible.

At this moment, Yang Yan patted his belly with satisfaction, and immediately stood up and said, "You guys eat slowly, I'll leave first."

"You want to go out again? It's too dangerous!" Qiuye Yinling opened his mouth and wanted to stop Yang Yan.

However, Yang Yan just waved his hand lightly and did not speak.

"Don't worry, Miss. With Mr. Omu's strength, nothing will happen!" After what happened last night, Ichijo's confidence in Yang Yan increased again.

Even Kawano, who saw this scene, had a clear change in his attitude when looking at Haruhiko.
