------------------
At 11:30 AM, Sato was busy attaching a hatching device to the Pokémon egg. He had spent 200 points from the points exchange system to purchase this incubator. According to the item description in the system, this incubator, which resembled a glass jar, was called a Super Incubator, and it had the ability to accelerate the hatching process of Pokémon eggs.
After carefully placing the Pokémon egg inside the incubator and sealing the lid, the mechanical equipment on the incubator automatically detected the presence of the egg and began to operate. In an instant, a soft light shone from under the lid, and some moisture appeared inside. The temperature inside the incubator stabilized at an optimal level for the egg to hatch.
"It seems to be working well. The quality of Team Rocket's products is really impressive," Sato remarked as he observed the small screen on the lid displaying the egg's heart rate. He could clearly see that the egg's life signs were stable, indicating that it was hatching healthily inside the incubator.
Afterward, Sato prepared Zubat's lunch. Since Zubat had only recently recovered from its injuries, its appetite for food was enormous. It devoured the remaining five liters of cow's blood Sato had in storage in one go. Moreover, Zubat seemed to digest the food much faster than usual. Even after consuming five liters, its belly only swelled slightly, and it still looked unsatisfied. To help, Sato gave it two calcium tablets he had bought from Dr. Fiyali earlier that day.
Once he finished with Zubat's lunch, Sato headed to the cafeteria, where he spent 10 points on a hearty meal for himself and purchased 20 liters of fresh blood. After resting for nearly two hours, he then brought Zubat and the Pokémon egg to the training grounds.
During his time resting in the dorm, Sato noticed that the PokeBlocks sold through his commission system had generated another 200 sales. After deducting the expenses for the calcium tablets, Pokémon egg, incubator, and food, he still had 1,255 points remaining.
Since he had a decent amount of points left and didn't want to attract too much attention (due to the secrecy surrounding the PokeBlocks and Pokémon egg), Sato chose to train in the paid training grounds this time.
The paid training grounds were far superior to the public ones. The entire area was larger than the public grounds, but instead of being a vast, empty concrete space, it had numerous interconnected walls, creating individual rooms. It resembled a square tower with crossbeams separating the rooms.
(Note: A standard soccer field is approximately 6,400 square meters, 100 meters long, and 64 meters wide, as mentioned earlier.)
The paid training grounds were divided into six floors. The first three floors were for low-tier training, with each floor containing 50 individual training rooms. Each room was around 120 square meters in size, providing plenty of space and some basic training equipment.
The fourth and fifth floors were mid-tier training grounds, with 20 individual rooms per floor, open only to Rocket Squad Leaders and higher-ranking members. Each of these rooms was about 300 square meters and equipped with much better training devices than the low-tier rooms.
Finally, the sixth floor housed 10 high-tier training rooms, reserved for Rocket's elite members. These rooms featured top-tier training equipment and personal assistants to help with the training.
Since Sato was only a low-ranking grunt, he could only rent the low-tier training rooms. The rental fee wasn't cheap either, costing 5 points per hour. After considering it, Sato decided to spend 15 points to rent one of the low-tier rooms for three hours.
According to his training schedule, the afternoon session focused primarily on endurance training. To be honest, Sato felt that the 15 points he spent were well worth it. Even though it was a low-tier training room, it had nearly all the equipment Zubat needed for endurance training, skill training, evasion training, and flight training.
For example, the powerful electric fan that Sato had considered buying was available here. It could generate strong winds, allowing Zubat to engage in endurance and upwind flight training.
For instance, Sato had envisioned a machine for Zubat to practice evasion training, and here there was an air projectile evasion training room. This training room featured ten launchers that could simultaneously fire high-speed air projectiles from different angles.
Additionally, for Zubat's flying technique training, there were numerous hanging rings suspended from the ceiling of the training ground. These rings were movable and adjustable in height, allowing them to create various flight paths that could accommodate Zubat's different levels of flying training.
"Come out, Zubat, let's start training," Sato said, a satisfied smile appearing on his face as he surveyed the various training equipment in the room. After placing the Pokémon egg on a secure rack, he released Zubat from its PokeBall.
Having had a hearty meal and over two hours of rest, Zubat, with its strong physique, looked revitalized and even more spirited after experiencing a victorious battle.
As soon as Zubat emerged, it let out a few cheerful calls before landing on Sato's shoulder.
"Zubat, this endurance training is different from this morning. This time, you will be facing strong winds," Sato told Zubat as they walked to the glass corridor housing the powerful electric fan.
This powerful fan looked similar to an ordinary standing fan, but its size was at least five or six times larger, with one of its blades measuring two meters in length.
Currently, the powerful fan was positioned at the end of a long glass corridor, and its motor was very powerful, capable of generating wind up to level 8 (previously level 10, but that was deemed too exaggerated and reduced). Level 8 wind is strong enough to blow a person away or uproot a large tree.
To prevent strong winds from causing harm during training, a specially constructed tempered glass corridor had been built, measuring over 30 meters long. This winding corridor stood tall in the training ground. With this glass corridor, not only could the strong winds be contained, but it also helped concentrate the wind's force.
Additionally, a layer of high-quality sponge mats was laid on the floor of the glass corridor, ensuring that even if a Pokémon training inside could not withstand the strong winds, it wouldn't suffer significant injuries.
After giving Zubat a brief overview of the training content, Sato exited the glass corridor and closed the seamless glass door. He then picked up the remote control for the powerful fan placed by the door.
He started with level 1 wind, then progressed to level 2, followed by level 3. As the wind speed increased step by step, once it reached level 6, Zubat, who had initially been managing well, began to struggle significantly. It flapped its wings desperately against the level 6 wind, trying to maintain its flying posture.
(Note: Level 6 wind has a speed of 10.8 to 13.8 meters per second, enough to cause difficulty in holding an umbrella, and shaking large tree branches.)
The powerful wind howled past, and the sound created by the friction of the wind against the air, "whoosh, whoosh," echoed in Sato's ears as he stood at the edge of the glass corridor. At the same time, he used the timer on his Team Rocket watch to time Zubat's flight duration in the strong winds.
Although Zubat was doing its utmost to flap its wings frequently to maintain its flying posture, as time passed and its stamina gradually waned, it was ultimately blown backward by the persistent level 6 winds, unable to move even a step forward.
After 5 minutes and 21 seconds, Zubat could no longer hold out against the level 6 winds and was blown all the way to the sponge pile at the end of the corridor.
