Elves: Goal, help Pokémon fulfill their wishes

Snowflakes as big as goose feathers danced in the howling cold wind, and the frozen ground mixed with ice was covered with a thick layer of white snow.

"Sister Sirona, have we gotten rid of the enemy?" A black-haired girl, whose lips were frozen purple by the low temperature and whose face was red by the cold wind, huddled up and stretched out her small hand to hold the hem of the black-clad blonde woman beside her. She asked with a slightly trembling voice, "Are we close to the safe gathering place you mentioned? Oh, sorry, I didn't mean to rush you... I just feel my legs are a little heavy."

This is not a good sign.

Shirona touched the child's head with some distress: "Don't worry, no matter how many times those bad guys chase me, I can beat them away."

As for when they could reach the gathering place...since the device for identifying directions was damaged in the previous battle with the pursuers from the Galaxy Team, and the snow-covered ground was everywhere, it was difficult for her to make any guarantees at the moment.

"..."

Shirona partially unbuttoned her black coat and hugged the black-haired girl into her arms. Although this could keep the little girl warmer, the cold air inevitably poured in through the gaps in Shirona's coat, rushing around and even seeping through her not-so-thin lining.

"I have to ask you for help again, Milotic." Sirona took out a Poké Ball and pressed the switch in the middle with her stiff fingers. As the Poké Ball expanded and a blue light flashed, a beige sea snake Pokémon appeared on the ice and snow. "Use the Hot Water move."

With worry revealed in its red eyes, Milotic let out a soft cry, and the pink and blue scales on its tail stood up slightly - as if it was actively absorbing the cold wind mixed with snowflakes around it into its body.

"Milo Milo." It lowered its head gracefully, and the still hot clear water flowed out gurglingly, gently falling on Shirona's hands, which were already clenched into a bowl shape.

Under the precise control of Milotic, the Hot Water move that could normally even burn the opponent was not that hot; but in such a low temperature environment, it is not easy to heat the water to such a temperature. Not only will it consume more of the user's physical strength, but it will also inevitably cause some burden on the Pokémon's body when inhaling cold air.

"Come and drink some hot water." Shirona held the water in her hand to the little girl's mouth. After the little girl took a few sips, she drank the barely warm water and then wiped the moisture on her palms with her sleeves to prevent them from forming ice crystals.

Holding the Poké Ball in front of Milotic, Sirona said apologetically, "Thank you for your hard work, Milotic. Go back to your Poké Ball and rest now."

However, Milotic shook its head, pushed away the Poké Ball, and moved its body closer to its trainer, pressing its soft neck tightly against the other's neck. It used the principle of the Hot Water Technique to continuously consume its physical strength to raise its body temperature in order to keep the person in front of it warm.

"I appreciate your kindness. Don't worry, I'll be fine. Besides, if we meet the enemy again in the future, you will have to fight it!" Shirona smiled and patted Milotic's head twice, then put it back into the Poké Ball.

Then the two of them continued to move forward in the wind and snow, and the large and small shoe prints left behind them were quickly wiped out by the snowflakes falling from the sky.

……

A gathering place at this moment.

During the conversation with the two doctors, Liang Yin initially learned about the importance of the suspicious patch. First, it was not an ordinary suspicious patch, but a device that carried some very important data that could not be copied or replicated; second, it was closely related to the boss of the Galaxy Team, or the former boss, Chiri.

That’s why there are Porygons, relentless pursuers with extremely high amplification power in the virtual world.

"That item has very high permissions. We may be able to use it to hack into the backend database of the virtual world," Dr. Akihabara pushed up his thick glasses, his face filled with excitement, and his tone was full of excitement. "Those guys on the Galaxy team thought that placing it in the real world would be safe, but they certainly didn't expect you to bring it into the virtual world."

Dr. Yamanashi's stern face also showed a little smile: "The simplified human transmission system we have built here only lacks the permission to start. Although I have been trying to find a loophole to bypass this permission request step, I have not succeeded so far."

As he spoke, he pointed to the integrated circuit wall that Liang Yin had been concerned about from the very beginning - it turned out that not only was the style similar, but it was clearly a simplified version of the integrated circuits on the top floor of the Galaxy Curtain Building!

Machiel was confused, but the handsome guy's eyes were already lit up with hope. When he tried his best to rescue Liang Yin, the Interpol had a premonition that the other party might be able to change the current dire situation.

Now it seems that this inexplicable premonition seems to have come true!

"Where is the suspicious patch now? Is it in your hand?" Dr. Akihabara stared at Liang Yin with expectant eyes, waiting for his next words.

Liang Yin scratched his head: "I said at the beginning that the suspicious patch was taken off by my Pokémon, so it is still in the hands of my Pokémon...but my Pokémon and I were separated when we entered the virtual world."

"Lost?" Dr. Akihabara was silent for a few seconds. "If nothing unexpected happens, your Pokémon should be under attack by Porygon, Team Galactic's strongest and most persistent pursuer in the virtual world, just like you."

Although he didn't say it explicitly, the implication of his words was not difficult to understand, which was that Liang Yin's Pokémon were most likely defeated by Porygon. As for the suspicious patch that carried the hope of counterattack, it was most likely returned to the hands of Team Galactic or even sent back to the real world.

"My Pokémon are all very reliable. They can definitely handle enemies like Porygon." Even though he had just escaped death from a Porygon's destructive ray not long ago, Liang Yin still waved his hand nonchalantly.

Maybe he would be a little humble sometimes, but he has never been vague about trusting the strength of his own Pokémon - not to mention that the Pokémon now holding the suspicious patch is Mewtwo!

Dr. Yamanashi frowned and said doubtfully, "Even Tyranitar, the ace Pokémon of our Sinnoh champion trainer Sirona, suffered serious injuries when fighting against a virtual world-enhanced Porygon not long ago. It only managed to protect a group of survivors from entering the transmission channel... It is still in the recuperation period!"

As soon as he finished speaking, the pager on his waist suddenly rang, and brought a very dramatic bad news about Sirona: their Sinnoh champion trainer, Miss Sirona, has not returned within the limited rescue time in the teleportation channel!

The timing of this news is indeed a bit subtle.
