Elf: Make the Rockets Great Again

Among them, the baby bear is okay. Although it has developed well, it can be seen that it is still some distance away from the "senior level".

But the Earth King is already close to the peak of the "excellent level". If he suddenly advances one day, then Lu Ming will have three "senior-level" elves.

With such strength, not only does he stand out among the younger generations, he is also no worse than some of the strong ones in the upper echelons.

What's more, Lu Ming is so young, which makes the contrast even more glaring.

Mayor Ace was also interested in promotion, and immediately said to the senior officials with a smile:

"Captain Lu Ming has made a great contribution this time, not only capturing a Team Rocket cadre who possesses two "senior-level" Pokémons.

Moreover, we also protected the direct descendants of the Yuhong lineage who came here at our invitation.

With such strength and achievements, using his lack of experience as an excuse to become an ordinary patrol captain is simply unacceptable, don't you think? "

The senior executives present had different thoughts and immediately started discussing among themselves. Then someone stepped forward and said:

"Although Lu Ming is very capable, he has no administrative experience after all. Plus, there are no vacancies in Nibi City right now. I'm afraid..."

Mayor Ace looked at everyone's attitude, then nodded and continued:

"Didn't we discuss selecting some outstanding members from the patrol team and having them form a special group specifically responsible for connecting with the representatives of the Yuhong Dojo?

And now, Lu Ming has both the ability and has won the favor of the owner Lijia, which makes him the perfect fit.

In my opinion, the position of leader of this responsible group can be decided today."

Upon hearing this, all the senior executives looked at each other, especially Inspector Yue Feng and Commissioner Hansen, who all had wry smiles on their faces.

Back then, it was these two who took the lead in proposing the idea of ​​establishing a team to connect with the Yuhong Gym.

The goal is to let my children perform more, and more importantly, to make friends with the people in Yuhong Dojo.

In their opinion, even if they cannot make friends with Gym Leader Lijia, as long as they can become friends with other direct members, they can be considered to have integrated into a higher circle.

However, who would be in charge of this liaison team was the focus of their dispute.

To this end, they each mobilized countless connections and money.

This is also a preparation for the possible public election of gym leaders in the future.

Previously, all the senior officials in Nibi City also believed that the team leader would be decided between Yueyin and Flora.

However, they did not expect that in the face of Lu Ming's rise, all their efforts seemed insignificant.

At this moment, although they all wanted to oppose Lu Ming, they could not find any reason.

Although they were both part of the alliance, Mayor Ace, perhaps for some reason, clearly did not want the two to continue to grow in power, and immediately made the decision:

"Okay, it's settled. Team Lu Ming will be promoted to the special liaison team to assist the Yuhong Gym's representative in their investigation.

The team leader is Lu Ming, and all the elite members selected later will also be under his command."

Lu Ming was also very surprised to receive the order. He had previously wondered if it would be suspicious if he directly inquired about the progress of the Yuhong Gym's investigation.

But now, he was directly appointed as an investigator, which was really a coincidence.

After the meeting, Lu Ming went home and sacrificed the "senior-level" Sandshrew in exchange for a high-level "ground gem".

However, after hearing that ordinary people had the possibility of running for the position of gym leader, Lu Ming was also hesitant whether to temporarily concentrate resources on one elf and raise a "gym leader-level" elf first.

With his current lineup, plus the magic of the desert space, if all the harvest is concentrated on one elf, it is possible to cultivate a "gym master level" elf in a short time.

After all, high-level gems are hard to find, but there are quite a few "senior-level" ground-attribute elves.

It can be said that even the most outstanding direct members of top wealthy families like Ami and Lijia cannot use high-quality gems as frequently as he does.

But then, Lu Ming was troubled by the question of which elf to cultivate first.

Logically speaking, his first Pokémon is Crocodile, and it even has a high-level item of its own system.

And I am afraid that I will not be able to get a second piece of high-quality equipment for other elves in a short period of time.

In addition, due to the fusion of the top-level "metal membrane" with a trace of Dialga's original divine power, Steelix is ​​now also very powerful.

If the two really fight, the latter may not be inferior to the rogue crocodile with high-quality "black glasses".

"Ah~, my palms and backs are all made of flesh. I'd better think it through before absorbing this high-level gemstone!"

Lu Ming muttered to himself and put the high-level gems that Sandshrew had just transformed into into his backpack, ready to use them after making a decision.

Then, he called Yana and other team members as well as Apollo.

When the former heard that they had joined the special team and that Lu Ming was the captain, they were all extremely excited.

As for Apollo, after hearing that Lu Ming not only successfully made friends with Lijia this time, but was also selected by Nibi City as the person to connect with the Yuhong Gym investigation project, he was speechless and felt that things were going too smoothly.

In particular, after hearing that Lijia was planning to invest in Lu Ming to become a gym, he fell into a strange silence.

"Is he really a genius?"

…………

Chapter 142 The initial formation of the group

The next day,

Lu Ming received an official notice early in the morning saying that the special team had completed its selection and asked him to integrate it today.

When Lu Ming received the list, he couldn't help but feel funny.

It turned out that this time, the Nibi City Hall finally selected five teams from the patrol team to become special teams.

In addition to his original team, there were also Yueyin and Flora who had been expected for a long time, as well as the yellow-haired man from Unova who had used the double-axe battle dragon before - Kavin.

He only knew and fought against the first three groups, but the last group was the team led by his cousin Lu Hui.

"Wow, they're all acquaintances!"

But Lu Ming quickly figured it out. The league is now interested in training and developing young trainers.

Among the youngest patrol team members in Nibi City, only these five have reached the "senior level".

Lu Ming made some preparations and asked the rogue crocodile to stay at home to guard the "Tongtong Fruit" tree that might mature at any time before he went to the gathering with peace of mind.

The rogue crocodile cannot be used easily now, so it is most appropriate to let it guard the "Tongtong Fruit" tree at home.

…………

The group's gathering place is the Pokémon Battle Arena in the City Hall, which is usually used for everyone to train for battles.

When Lu Ming came over, he found that all the members of his previous team and his cousin Lu Hui's team were present.

Needless to say, Yana and the others all looked at Lu Ming with admiration.

My cousin Lu Hui and his girlfriend Xiaoyu seemed very proud of it.

As for his other two former teammates, they now looked at Lu Ming with great respect.

After waiting for less than a moment, Kevin came with his team to assemble and congratulated Lu Ming sincerely.

But then, the two teams of Yueyin and Flora were slow to arrive, and they did not appear at the same time until a long time after the assembly time.

Lu Ming frowned and said, "I think everyone received the notice at the same time. Why are your two teams so late?"

"Sorry, we encountered a public security incident on the road. Since we are patrol members, how can we ignore it? That's why we were delayed!" Yue Yin explained casually.

"Since we're now a team, we must follow unified orders. From now on, even if there are any unexpected incidents, you must report them to me first."

Flora picked at her nails and said frivolously, "Wow, such a powerful official! It really scared me to death.

I grew up in Nibi City, and even some high-ranking government officials have never spoken to me like this!"

Hearing this, Lu Hui looked annoyed and clenched his fists, intending to step forward to support his cousin.

Seeing this, Lu Ming waved his hand to stop them, then chuckled and said, "I know that your elders are all high-ranking officials in Nibi City, and they are probably very dissatisfied with me, an outsider.

How about we make a bet? You two each take out an elf and play doubles with me.

If you win, I will let you do whatever you want from now on, but if you lose, you will have to obey my orders from now on."

Both of them were proud people, and they were ashamed and angry when they heard that Lu Ming was going to fight two people alone.

But thinking of what their father said, that Lu Ming already had a second "senior-level" elf, they had no choice but to huddle together for warmth. They looked at each other and released their own elves.

The two of them naturally used Arcanine and Blastoise, both of which are the Pokémon that ordinary trainers dream of.

However, compared to the state they had just evolved before the competition, the energy fluctuations emitted by these two elves are now more condensed.

Obviously, both of them have had sufficient replenishment and exercise during this period.

But when Lu Ming released his Pokémon, Windy, Blastoise and their trainers were stunned on the spot.

They had all fought desert dragonflies before, when their energy levels were similar.

But after just a few days, why is the energy level of the desert dragonfly obviously much higher than theirs!

Not to mention, the energy fluctuations emitted by the telekinetic clay doll next to it are not inferior to those of the desert dragonfly.

You know, in terms of financial resources and abilities of trainers, how could Lu Ming compare with the families behind the two? Could it be that he is a second-generation trainer hiding his true identity?

Lu Ming naturally would not reveal the secret of the desert space. He just smiled faintly and said:

"I'm sorry, but I had some adventures recently. Not only did my Desert Dragonfly's strength increase significantly, but I also managed to subdue a telekinetic clay doll. I'd appreciate your guidance."

After Lu Ming finished speaking, the desert dragonfly and the telekinetic clay doll launched an attack at the same time.

The former condensed "dragon claws" and rushed forward directly, while the latter condensed countless rocks around his body.

Seeing the Desert Dragonfly approaching at a rapid speed, Blastoise immediately condensed icy energy and shot out an ice-blue "freezing ray" towards it.

But before it could touch the desert dragonfly, it was blocked by a falling rock.

The rock was quickly completely frozen by the "freezing ray" until it shattered into ice chips.

But it was not a single one, but fell like a meteor. Blastoise had no choice but to use all the remaining "freeze rays" to block the "rockslide".

The Desert Dragonfly took the opportunity to get close and was about to chop down Blastoise with a powerful "Dragon Claw".

But the latter also had helpers. Seeing this, Arcanine disappeared from the spot in an instant and arrived before the "dragon claws" of the Desert Dragonfly fell on Blastoise.

The silver light wrapped around its body suddenly collided with the green "dragon claw". After a violent vibration of the surrounding air, the tall wind speed dog fell into a disadvantage and its body was chopped away.

Although the desert dragonfly also moved back slightly under the reaction force, its condition was obviously much better.

"How is this possible? It's only been a short time, why has the energy level of this desert dragonfly increased so much?" Yue Yin exclaimed in disbelief.
