People in the Elf: God rewards hard work and I become stronger at the speed of light Chapter 109

Meanwhile.

“Caw~!”

Amidst the shrill, chaotic cries of birds, the Zapdos, shooting lightning bolts in all directions from above, coincidentally linked up large streaks of lightning, forming a web-like electric net that descended towards where Little Lan was falling.

“Arcanine!”

Bai Ze’s expression hardened. He tucked the Zorua “in his arms” further “into his collar,” then yelled as he flipped over and semi-crouched on Arcanine’s back.

The next second.

Whoosh!

Creak—

Arcanine, understanding his intent, flashed upwards. Halfway there, it twisted its body like a drift, heading straight for the electric net in mid-air!

Boom!

A layer of fiery aura immediately blazed forth, engulfing Arcanine’s body.

It transformed into a blazing sun.

Rushing skyward!

Thud!

Almost simultaneously, Bai Ze, who had leaped up with the momentum of Arcanine’s twisting body, managed to intercept the falling Little Lan in mid-air.

The moment she was in his arms, Bai Ze realized Little Lan hadn’t actually fainted.

Because her body was constantly trembling violently and at a high frequency.

It seemed that some unknown fear rendered her unable to support her body’s movements, making her soft as if boneless… This wasn’t a metaphor, but rather Little Lan’s entire body was in a state of flaccid paralysis, as if her bones were disconnected, like a puppet without its joints.

But now was not the time to think about this.

The sensation of freefall.

And the whistling wind in his ears proved that even though he had caught Little Lan, they were still rapidly descending.

“Bai Ze…”

The embrace was warm; this was Little Lan’s first sensation as she barely managed to gather a bit of consciousness.

From the corner of her eye.

Although the sunny young man she saw was different from her perception, the physical contact and the inexplicably familiar aura allowed her to instantly confirm Bai Ze’s true identity.

Whoosh—

At this moment, the strong wind whistling down made it difficult for Bai Ze to open his eyes, but in his half-closed eyes, although there was tension, not a hint of panic was revealed.

After all.

Not to mention his life-saving trump card, Marshadow, could completely guarantee his safety.

Just speaking for himself.

He wasn’t entirely unprepared for such a situation.

Click—

Amidst the sound of machinery operating, Bai Ze wrapped one arm around Little Lan’s slender waist. On the back of his right hand, raised in a fist, mechanical wings extended rapidly from both sides of his gauntlet.

Bai Ze’s downward momentum immediately stopped.

And then…

Boom!

Amidst the sudden burst of fire behind him, a surging impact instantly propelled Bai Ze forward.

Bai Ze adjusted the suspended wings with the momentum, flying parallel. Finally, he slightly bent his knees, ran a few steps forward, and stopped on the street several hundred meters away from the skyscraper.

His landing pose was very cool.

However.

In such a chaotic central area, besides the battling “Team Rocket” members, Officer Jenny, and a few scattered Alliance Trainers, there were no spectators to cheer for Bai Ze’s heroic rescue.

In fact, the moment he landed, he was attacked…

“Golbat, Leech Life!”

“Moo~!”

Under the command of a “Team Rocket” member, a Golbat with flapping purple membrane wings swooped down, its wide mouth charging directly towards Bai Ze.

Its hunting expression seemed to regard Bai Ze as a mobile blood bag.

“Watch out!”

Beside them, Officer Jenny, who was entangled with several Team Rocket members, was shocked.

Her Growlithe was caught up with three Arbok from the other side.

Having no other Pokémon, and even being at a disadvantage, she could only turn her gun and fire towards Bai Ze.

Zap! Zap! Zap!

Three consecutive shots, not lethal, at most paralyzing, electric currents shot out, forming a triangular blockade of Golbat’s movement path.

It must be said that Officer Jenny’s marksmanship was excellent.

But as a bat Pokémon capable of locating with ultrasonic waves, Golbat was a natural master of flight.

It didn’t even turn its head.

It folded, contracted, and spun in mid-air, avoiding the three electric currents with a perfectly executed flight arc.

Then.

Without slowing down, it drew a crescent moon in mid-air, fiercely biting towards Bai Ze’s “exposed” shoulder from behind.

But…

In Golbat’s bloodthirsty eyes and Officer Jenny’s pained gaze.

A scorching white whip shadow slashed down head-on!

Bang—

The fierce whip kick directly caved in Golbat’s face. Its body bounced off the ground like a rubber ball several times before it finally plunged headfirst into the roadside greenery.

[You used Psychic Whip Kick to instantly defeat and dismantle Golbat’s combat ability, gaining a slight advantage. Kick skill experience + 20, Psychic experience + 8]

Bai Ze retracted his leg.

A Golbat that had barely reached Elite level, and was caught off guard, with his current strength combined with Master-level kicking techniques and Psychic amplification.

With one blow,

It wouldn’t be able to get up easily.

Then.

He took a step forward, his toes like a sweeping stick, and kicked the Golbat’s trainer unconscious as well.

Many Team Rocket members, seeing this, surrounded him in twos and threes.

And at this moment.

Thud—

Arcanine, having successfully intercepted Zapdos’s discharge attack, leaped down from mid-air and came to Bai Ze’s side.

Its fiery eyes lightly glanced.

Instantly.

An invisible pressure caused the Team Rocket members and their Pokémon to freeze.

‘Take off your hat.’

Whispering a reminder to Zorua, Bai Ze reached out and took off his cowboy hat, covering it in front of his chest, and bowed slightly to Officer Jenny.

Then.

“Extreme Speed!” he commanded coldly.

Whoosh—

Like a stream of orange-red light, in the blink of an eye, by the time Arcanine returned to Bai Ze’s side, all the Team Rocket members and their Pokémon on the street had been completely defeated and rendered unconscious.

[You commanded Arcanine to defeat 22 Elite-level Pokémon, gaining a slight advantage. Combat experience + 1, Arcanine’s experience slightly increased, Extreme Speed proficiency + 1]

“Hmph~”

Just then, Little Lan, who had been buried in his arms, also recovered her spirits and some strength.

With a slight blush, she struggled free and stood firm, saying, “Thank you, Bai Ze, I’m much better now. Go do your own thing…”

“…”

Bai Ze raised an eyebrow, surprised that Little Lan could guess his identity.

However, thinking of Little Lan’s mischievous nature, it wasn’t entirely unacceptable… After all, with close contact, it was easy to spot some flaws.

“Alright, don’t go near the central area. Find a place to hide, or go outside the city… lest you run into something flapping its wings and get too scared to move again.”

Bai Ze said meaningfully.

Based on Little Lan’s reaction and his memories from the Pokémon Adventures manga.

Bai Ze knew that,

At this time, Little Lan had not yet overcome her ornithophobia, which she developed after being kidnapped by Ho-Oh in her childhood… When near large birds, she would involuntarily become weak all over.

“You really know…” Little Lan’s expression turned serious.

Bai Ze shrugged, and Little Lan didn’t press the matter this time. Instead, she suddenly smiled brightly, raised her arm, and shook something at Bai Ze.

“This is the gauntlet with flying wings ordered by Silph Co., right? I’ve always been reluctant to buy it, so thank you for the sponsorship this time!”

“Bye-bye!”

As soon as her words fell, Little Lan stuck out her tongue and made a face at Bai Ze.

Then she simply turned around and slipped into the nearby alley, disappearing from Bai Ze’s sight in the blink of an eye.

“…”

Bai Ze was stunned, raising his hand, and indeed found that the flying wing gauntlet he was wearing was gone. He couldn’t help but feel a little amused and exasperated.

Such superb, undetectable thieving skills.

What kind of “Evolutionary Human”?

You might as well call yourself “Empty-Handed Wonder”!

He grumbled inwardly.

Bai Ze didn’t care too much. Instead, he turned and looked at the Legendary Birds that had been attracted by Arcanine.

And,

The robust old man standing behind Articuno!
