Chapter 11 Threats and Responses
Just as Oni was browsing the news in the lounge.
Long Cang and several other top players at the league headquarters have arrived at the champion's office.
The champion of the Eastern Alliance was a composed man who looked to be around forty years old.
He was wearing a pair of silver-rimmed glasses.
There's always a slight smile on his lips.
However, perhaps due to the pressure of being a champion, men at this age begin to have thinning hair.
This incident seems to be causing him to lose even more hair, making his smile somewhat bitter.
Long Cang and the others took their seats.
Upon seeing the champion's expression, everyone frowned.
The Eastern Alliance is quite large, and it has set up eight Heavenly Kings to assist the champion in management.
Besides Dragon-type Elite Four member Long Cang, Poison-type Elite Four member Tan Si, and Grass-type Elite Four member Pu Qin, the others who were able to attend today were also present.
There are also the Fire-type Heavenly King Guan Yan and the Ice-type Heavenly King Shen Wang.
Including the champion, the majority of the Eastern Alliance's strength has been concentrated in this giant mountain tower.
If someone were to attack the Eastern Alliance headquarters at this time, he would face six of the world's top experts.
Even legendary Pokémon will probably be knocked into Poké Balls by then.
Seeing that most of the people had arrived, the champion gently tapped the corner of the table.
"Most of them have arrived. Those who haven't come yet won't be back for now. Let's begin. Tan Sitian, you report."
"Yes, Your Excellency the Champion."
When Tan Si heard the champion ask him to speak, he immediately stood up and glanced at his colleagues present.
His voice was somewhat low: "Gentlemen, I have just interrogated Bagu, the Elite Four level trainer of the Revival Society. From him, I learned the purpose of the Revival Society's comeback this time."
According to Bagu, Luan Xiao, the president of the Revival Society, found a sleeping divine beast in a certain place.
And they found some records.
That mythical beast seems to harbor great hostility towards humans, and once awakened, it will treat all humans as enemies.
They are launching various terrorist attacks now in order to accumulate negative energy.
They also searched for items that could stimulate the awakening of the divine beast, hoping to use this to rouse it and then control it to destroy the alliance.
Everyone should be aware of the dangers posed by some mythical beasts; the Alliance will likely be in peril then.
Long Cang frowned, adding a touch of melancholy to his otherwise rugged face: "Do you know what kind of divine beast it is? Where is it sleeping?"
Tans shook his head: "Bagu didn't say any of this. Maybe he knows, maybe he doesn't. I haven't been able to get any information out of him yet."
"What about the Restoration Society's base? What about information on the other Elite Four level trainers?" asked Shen Wang, the Ice-type Elite Four member.
Tan Si took out a stack of white paper: "He did mention some of these, but there was no information about the president, Luan Xiao."
He said he hadn't seen their president in a long time.
The other party's whereabouts are very mysterious; even they, the Elite Four level trainers, don't know anything about them.
Fire-type Heavenly King Guan Yan snorted coldly: "These are enough. Next, I will destroy the strongholds of the Revival Society."
Long Cang remained silent and looked at the champion sitting in the first seat.
The champion noticed Long Cang's gaze and asked, "What are you thinking, Heavenly King Long?"
Long Cang considered his words carefully before speaking:
"The core of the enemy's plan is the sleeping divine beast and the opposing guild leader."
If these two hidden dangers are not eliminated, the threat will persist and may even become more covert due to our actions.
We must find the mythical beast and the chairman that the Revival Society is hiding as soon as possible.
Only by eliminating them can our crisis be considered resolved.
Ice-type King Shen Wang nodded:
"But all we have right now is Bagu. If he really doesn't know the whereabouts of the guild leader Luan Xiao and the divine beast, how are we supposed to find them?"
Poison-type Champion Tans chimed in, "If only a Psychic-type Champion could help us, hypnosis might be more effective than my methods."
The Eastern League has many Elite Four members and many trainers.
However, this alliance currently does not have a powerful Psychic-type Elite Four member.
"Can't a regular Psychic-type trainer do it?" asked Guan Yan, the Fire-type Elite Four member.
Tan Si shook his head:
"Bagu is, after all, an Elite Four member. The natural power he controls won't completely disappear just because he loses his Pokémon."
Ordinary Psychic-type trainers would find it difficult to break through this kind of primal power that hypnotizes their opponent.
"Then what do we do? We can't just do nothing, can we?" Fire-type Heavenly King Guan Yan was getting anxious.
Long Cang pondered for a moment and looked at the champion: "Champion, we can approach this matter from three directions."
All eyes turned to Long Cang.
Long Cang looked at everyone and said:
"First, we will continue to look for a breakthrough with Bagu and seek help from other alliances."
They requested the assistance of their Psychic-type Elite Four member, explaining that the threat posed by the Restoration Society and the legendary Pokémon was directed at the entire League, and they would not refuse.
"Second, we should start with the strongholds that Bagu revealed."
We'll eliminate some, and leave others to secretly monitor them; we'll eventually find more of their people. Maybe even the Heavenly King and the Chairman."
"Finally, didn't Bagu say that the Revival Society was looking for items that could stimulate the awakening of divine beasts?"
We can start from this angle; perhaps we can pinpoint the mythical beasts the Revival Society will find, and their whereabouts.
After listening to Long Cang's three suggestions, the others pondered for a moment and nodded in agreement, confirming that they were indeed feasible directions.
However, Puqin, the Grass-type Elite Four member who had remained silent until now, said:
"The first and third points are easy to discuss; we can investigate them quickly. However, the second point, which involves eliminating some terrorist organizations but leaving some behind, could potentially pose a hidden danger."
We need to develop a more detailed plan to ensure they don't suffer irreparable losses due to our negligence.
The champion nodded in agreement after listening to the discussion among the other superstars, and a solution was agreed upon.
"Let's proceed according to the Dragon King's plan."
However, we also need to launch a surprise attack on those Restoration Society strongholds as soon as possible, lest they learn that Bagu has been captured and then relocate.
Upon hearing this, the Fire King immediately stood up: "Leave this to me. I guarantee I'll wipe those guys out in one fell swoop."
The Ice-type Elite Four member also stood up: "Let me help you, and while we're at it, let's search the enemy Elite Four member and that guild master."
The champion nodded: "Thank you both."
Without delay, the two superstars took the documents handed to them by Tan Si, opened the window, and jumped out.
A Charizard and a Pidgeot soared into the sky, heading towards the Restoration Society's stronghold.
The league champions and the stars watched the two walk away and continued to discuss other details.
Which alliance should we seek help from?
The champion thought for a moment and said, "I'll discuss this with the champions from the other leagues. Let's first set out to find items that will stimulate the awakening of the legendary beasts."
The meeting did not last long.
Because time was of the essence, the meeting ended in about an hour.
Tan Si and Pu Qin left together to continue interrogating Bagu.
Just as Long Cang was about to leave, the champion called him back.
"Dragon King, wait a moment, there are some things I need to tell you."
Long Cang had just stood up, but upon hearing this, he could only sit down again: "Please speak."
The champion seemed to have recovered somewhat since things were looking up, and asked with a smile:
"Grandma Gu just spoke to me on the phone, saying she hopes we can help her with something..."
