The next day.
Natsu stretched refreshed from the ice cave.
Have a good night's sleep.
This is Froslass territory, so don't worry about Pokémon attacking at night.
Froslass and its four little fellows have all been conquered by Natsu, and they have also harvested two thousand-year-old ice, one big and one small.
Accepting Pokémon also depends on the method, even if you force it, but if it is like Anjie, it will inevitably be disgusting.
In Natsu's view, it's understandable to be a Trainer to capture some Pokémon for resources to sell, but there is still a bottom line.
Before taking a break last night, Natsu finally figured out what method and state he would use to enter Snowpoint City to learn more about Hunter's Guild's purpose and their plans.
With the trimmed Pokémon, Natsu set foot on the road to Snowpoint City.
Should be able to reach Snowpoint City by this evening.
...
The other side.
Kanto Region Alliance headquarters.
After delivering the task, Lance hit Yawn.
Several days of manhunt had made his day and night almost completely Topsy-Turvy, and now he just wanted a place to sleep comfortably.
Accompanying him was a burly, shirtless man.
Just by looking at the muscular lines on his body, you can see how strong his body is.
"Lance, the mission is over, do you want to train together?" the man invited.
Lance smiled and shook the head, "Bruno, you go, I want to get a good night's sleep, and the Pokémons also need to rest."
The man is the future Kanto Region Fighting Elite Bruno, a little older than Lance, is very powerful.
At this time, he is preparing to move towards the Prep Elite Four to launch an attack. Once successful, he will enter the ranks of the Prep Elite Four, and will also be a strong contender for the vacant position in the Elite Four after Pryce leaves office.
So even at the end of the mission, Bruno didn't stop training.
But for his invitation, Lance decisively refused.
No way, Bruno's way of training just doesn't suit him.
Lance also did not prepare himself to be a Fighting family.
But for Lance, he still admires him.
The human body can be trained to a level comparable to that of Pokémon, and the hard day and after day training required in this growth process alone is enough to dissuade 99% of people.
A hardworking person is never boring.
"Okay, then you have to do your best, I'll be waiting for you there."
Bruno was not surprised by Lance's refusal, grinned and raised his index finger. Pointing to the above, the meaning is self-evident.
"Then don't let me get ahead of you."
"hahahaha—"
Laughing, Bruno walked quickly out of the Alliance lobby.
Lance shook his head helplessly.
Bruno is not only a powerful Trainer, but also a factionless one.
This looks like a good thing, it won't be hindered by anything, but it actually makes it very difficult for him to continue to ascend.
Just as he was walking out of the Alliance lobby and summoned Aerodactyl to leave, the phone suddenly rang.
Lance took it out and looked at the caller's number, and smiled involuntarily.
"Natsu, why do you have time to call me?"
The caller was Natsu who was in Sinnoh and was going to Snowpoint City.
"Hunter's Guild?"
Upon hearing Natsu's question, Lance frowned slowly.
But after thinking about it, he told Natsu as much as he could.
"Hunter's Guild is a relatively laid-back organization, but that's why they have members all over the Pokémon world."
As he said, he sat on Aerodactyl.
"That's about it, if you're going to be in contact with them, you must be careful about the twenty-six key members of the Hunter's Guild, especially the six A, J, L, N, T, and Z. They is very strong."
After finishing speaking, Lance did not forget to exhort him.
"Also..."
Lance wanted to add something, but the words just came out, but suddenly got stuck.
The complexion becomes a little more complicated.
"Nothing, just be careful."
...
Sinnoh.
Snowpoint City.
After learning some insider information about Hunter's Guild from Lance's mouth, Natsu successfully arrived at Snowpoint City, the northernmost city in the Sinnoh Region, before night fell. Snowpoint City is only one city completely covered in snow and ice.
Entering Snowpoint City, you can clearly feel the desertedness of the city. The roads are covered with snow, and pedestrians are rarely seen.
It's winter, and it's the northernmost city. At this time, the residents of Snowpoint City either go to other regions for vacation or stay at home with the heating on, and not many people will Wander the streets.
After arriving in Snowpoint City, Natsu plunged headlong into the black market.
From the San Annus to Sinnoh, and then all the way to Snowpoint City, Natsu has accumulated a lot of resources and captured Pokémon during this time.
These all need to be sold on the black market.
At the same time, with the addition of Snorlax, with its terrifying appetite, Natsu doesn't have much Pokéblock.
You need to buy some Berry and materials and go back and make it yourself.
Psychic's awakening allows him to try out some more difficult Pokéblocks.
This is likely to be one of his main sources of income for some time to come.
Compared to the deserted streets of Snowpoint City, the black market is much more lively.
The influence of land boundaries is also felt in the black market.
Most of the Pokémon sold in the Pokémon store are ice attribute Pokémon, and the price of ice attribute Pokémon here is generally lower and cheaper.
In Pokémon food stores, there are also a lot of food and berries that belong to the ice attribute Pokémon.
Natsu can clearly feel the most traffic here when he sells his captured Pokémon.
To-and-fro, most people sell Pokémon, and relatively few buy Pokémon.
Hunter's Guild arranges some of its manpower in Snow Summit, and these Pokémon hunters earn "extra money" when they have nothing to do, causing the purchase price of Pokémon in the black market to drop again and again.
Natsu only got two million Alliance Coins after he sold all the Pokémon he was supposed to sell.
Although it's also because these Pokémon are either not strong, or not rare, or Pokémon that originally had Trainer, but the price is really low.
But there is no way, he It shouldn't be to leave Snowpoint City in the short term, these Pokémons are a waste of food, it is better to sell them as soon as possible.
And the money Natsu uses without the slightest hesitation to buy a lot of Pokémon food ingredients, including Berry.
Luckily, as Pokémon prices are falling, so are the prices of these berries and materials.
It's not a loss if you come and go.
Once these chores are done, it's time to get down to business.
According to Natsu's observation, Pokémon store opened by Hunter's Guild in the black market soon locked on,
The most people came in and out, and the Pokémon in the store can be said to be the best quality in the entire black market. Ok, and covers the most Regions and varieties.
His goal is simple.
Join Hunter's Guild!
First get an identity, and then find an opportunity to visit the vicinity of Snowpoint Temple. It is best to contact the people in Snowpoint Temple, so that Miyu and the others can be arranged.
And as a loosely organized Hunter's Guild, the identity of the Outer Member will not be investigated too much.
Otherwise, there are so many Pokémon hunters in the Pokémon world, and even some of them are members of major underground forces, "part-time" Pokémon hunters, which can be investigated.
The most.
It's those hunters who are under the command of twenty six people, and Natsu need to investigate.
