Chapter 25: Another Battle Against Team Rocket's Trio!
"Trouble? What trouble?"
Upon hearing Qingyuan's words, Li Ke asked, looking completely bewildered.
"Doesn't this thing look like an electrical wire?"
Qingyuan pointed to the black rope-like object that had tripped Li Ke earlier.
Upon hearing this, Li Ke took the thing in his hand and examined it carefully, and then discovered that it did indeed appear to be an electrical wire.
Why would you put electrical wires in a tunnel?
Li Ke looked at the power lines under his feet and asked with some confusion.
"Who knows? Maybe someone thought the tunnel was too dark and wanted to install a light inside!"
Qingyuan guessed, holding Pipi in his arms.
If he remembered correctly, these wires and such were probably lights installed by Team Rocket to make mining easier.
Upon hearing Qingyuan's words, Li Ke immediately shouted.
"What did you say? Press the lights? How can you press the lights here? It will disrupt the ecosystem in those tunnels and cause the elves to riot!"
"Who would care about that kind of thing!"
"As long as we can dig up precious moonstones to exchange for money, what does it matter to us whether the elves riot or not!"
"Yeah, meow!"
Just then, several voices came from the direction of the sound, and Li Ke quickly looked in that direction.
The Rockets trio were seen carrying a large bundle of wires, looking completely unconcerned.
"A talking meow?"
Who are you people?
Looking at the two people and the cat in front of him, Li Ke was clearly a little confused, but he still asked the question.
"It's starting again!"
Upon hearing this, Qingyuan covered his face with one hand, thinking to himself.
"Since you've asked so sincerely!"
"Then I will mercifully tell you!"
"for……"
"Scorpion, use your Cross Poison Blade on them!"
"Clatter!"
Before they could finish their opening remarks, Qingyuan directly commanded Scorpion to launch an attack on them.
"The gas bomb was deflected by impact!"
Seeing the scorpion charging towards him with its pincers glowing purple, Kojiro quickly directed the gas bombs to the front.
"boom!"
With a muffled thud, the gas bomb, its body radiating white light, was sent flying by Scorpion.
Although the gas bombs were only used to temporarily block the attack, the ultimate goal was achieved.
Scorpio was successfully slowed down by the gas bomb. After failing to land a hit, Scorpio quickly rolled away.
Having experienced so many battles, Scorpios have learned their lesson: they fight and run, never lingering in combat.
The last time I fought Onix, I was trapped and couldn't escape, which is why I lost the battle.
"You brat, don't you know any manners? The other person hasn't even finished reciting their lines yet!"
Seeing that the gas bomb had blocked Scorpion's attack, Musashi angrily berated Aohara.
"Heh, there's absolutely no need to be polite to Team Rocket members like you who steal other people's Pokémon!"
"Besides, you only need to say your opening remarks once; it gets boring if you keep repeating them!"
Upon hearing Musashi's words, Qingyuan spoke with a cold expression.
"You brat, how dare you say our opening remarks are boring!"
"Abobo Snake will use its venomous stinger to teach this brat a lesson!"
Upon hearing Qingyuan's words, Musashi, who was already furious, became even more enraged and immediately commanded Abobo to launch an attack on Qingyuan.
"You throw the gas bomb too, teach this brat a lesson!"
Seeing this, Kojiro quickly directed the gas bomb attack.
"Scorpion performs acrobatics against the Abominable!"
"Scyther uses its combo attack on the gas bomb!"
Seeing this, Qingyuan did not hesitate at all, and commanded Scorpion to launch an attack.
At the same time, he quickly launched the Scyther and commanded it to attack!
"Bang!" X2
Two loud collisions rang out. Because of Scorpion's fighting style of retreating after each attack, Qingyuan immediately saw Scorpion backflipping out.
"Scorpion, keep using your combo attack!"
Seeing this, Qingyuan did not hesitate at all and immediately commanded Scorpion to attack again.
"Clatter!"
Upon hearing Qingyuan's words, Scorpion's pincers glowed white as it plunged back into the smoke and dust.
After that, Qingyuan had no idea what was going on inside, only hearing a few sounds of fighting.
"Is it reasonable for a tunnel to have this much smoke and dust?!"
Qingyuan covered his mouth and nose while looking at the smoke and dust in front of him, and muttered to himself.
"what!"
Just as Qingyuan was carefully observing the smoke and dust in front of him, a scream suddenly rang out.
Qingyuan looked in the direction of the sound and saw Miaomiao jump up and bend Li Ke's leg.
"Li Ke, you're really useless!"
"Charmander uses Metal Claw on Meowth!"
Seeing this, Qingyuan made a comment and quickly commanded the little fire dragon to attack the meow meow.
Although he complained that Li Ke was useless, he wasn't sure he could beat Miao Miao if they actually faced off.
"Don't underestimate me, you brat! Watch me scratch wildly! Meow!"
Seeing the little dragon charging towards her with its hands flashing silver-white light, Meow Meow shouted loudly, its claws flashing with a bright white light and lengthening more than ten times as it charged towards the little dragon.
"Groo-wa!"
Seeing the fierce-looking Meowth charging towards it, Charmander roared with fighting spirit and then swung its claws.
Then, just like the battlefield of Scorpion and the others, this battlefield fell into a stalemate.
Unable to fight, Qingyuan could only hold Pipi and try to hide in a corner.
After all, he wasn't Ash from Pallet Town. Qingyuan was certain that he would be captured in less than a single encounter with Jessie and Kojiro.
Li Ke shakily got up from the ground.
Meow Meow's two powerful punches still caused considerable damage to this untrained researcher.
The stalemate did not last long, and good news came first from Scorpio's main battlefield.
Scorpion first blinded Arbok with a sand-pouring attack from above, then followed up with a spectacular acrobatic maneuver from above, successfully rendering the Gas Bomb, which was dodging the attack from the Scyther, unable to fight.
Seeing this, Scyther immediately seized the opportunity and used a combo of Quick Attack to take down Arbok.
Seeing that the battle on the main battlefield had been resolved, Qingyuan devoted himself to commanding the little fire dragon in battle.
Compared to its two predecessors, Charmander still has a serious lack of combat experience.
Of course, we can't ignore Meowth's strength. After all, in the anime, Meowth successfully defeated its evolved form, Palico.
Although we haven't experienced as many hardships yet, our strength isn't that great.
However, compared to Charmander, Meowth's level is much higher. Charmander has done a great job of fighting for so long without being defeated.
"Charmander, use Smoke Screen!"
Seeing the little dragon being relentlessly attacked and forced to retreat by Meowth's frantic clawing, Qingyuan quickly gave instructions.
Upon hearing Qingyuan's words, the little fire dragon, which had been somewhat flustered by Meow Meow's fierce attack, immediately regained its footing.
Seeing Meowth charging towards it, Charmander took a deep breath and exhaled a cloud of smoke directly at Meowth.
"What is that?! Meow!"
"I can't see! Meow!"
Meow Meow, who was hit in the face by the smoke, immediately became flustered.
"Now's the time, Charmander, use fire... use your metal claws!"
Qingyuan originally wanted the little dragon to use Ember, but now it was a closed space with a lot of smoke and dust flying around.
If this were to be used with sparks and an explosion were to occur, probably no one here would be able to escape.
So, for his own safety, Qingyuan had no choice but to ask the little fire dragon to wave its arms a few more times.
"Meow!"
Meow let out a miserable cry as it was blasted away by Charmander's metal claws, landing on the ground and losing its ability to fight.
Upon seeing this, Musashi and Kojiro did not hesitate at all. They put away their Pokémon, picked up Meowth, and ran away.
Seeing this, Li Ke wanted to chase after her, but Qingyuan stopped him.
"Stop chasing them! It's too dark in this tunnel. They can just find a place to hide and you won't be able to catch them!"
"Let's put these wires away first, in case that elf gets its neck tangled in them!"
Hearing Qingyuan's words, Li Ke thought it made sense, so he and Qingyuan started collecting the wires on the ground.
