(2240, first order please!)

A peaceful night.

Except that the nights in the mountains are a bit chilly.

Filio, who was unable to light a fire and kept guard for most of the night wearing a thick coat, while listening to Korni's even breathing in the tent behind him, put himself into the identity and position of Team Flare, thinking about the current situation, intelligence and

Countermeasures.

The map brought by Korni was spread out, and with the faint light of the mobile phone, Filio began to draw circles.

Until the east is white.

------------------

The sun shines on the earth.

From the distant mountainside, there was a noise in the distance.

There are no secrets in the empty mountains.

After a night of hard work, Team Flare is ready to go.

Under the cover of the dream monster's illusion, Philio approached for reconnaissance.

Yesterday's tight defense is now gone.

A retreat is about to begin, or a great escape under the eyes of the alliance. From grassroots cadres to small soldiers, they have little motivation to stand guard and are only thinking about getting enough of their own things and how to escape safely.

For Philio, this is naturally a good thing.

From the "VIP seat" on the edge of the woods, he had a panoramic view of Team Flare's situation.

Dozens of specially-made wooden carts suitable for traveling in the mountains carry a large number of instruments that Philio may or may not recognize, as well as countless sealed metal containers and several metal cages containing wild Pokémon.

Just outside the cave, there are about 150 members of Team Flare. Looking at the people coming in and out, the actual number is probably much more. A conservative estimate is that it will be more than 200 people. Although most of them are powerful

They are unremarkable, but when the numbers are piled up, their combat power cannot be underestimated.

A small group of them looked capable, orderly and conspicuous among the panicked crowd.

A dozen canine Pokémon with a keen sense of smell are scattered around, on guard.

However, it was not difficult for Philio, who was well prepared.

Excellent breeders always have countless ways to deal with Pokémon's sense of smell.

After recording clearly, Filio didn't stay for a long time and quickly left.

Based on the map, he had roughly guessed the opponent's next move.

The huge team, the pots and jars that are not willing to be thrown away, the alternative routes can be judged at a glance, and the speed is destined to be slow.

------------------

"Everyone, this is the situation that Hall Master Kerni and I have detected. When can Miss Junsha and the others arrive?"

Holding the communicator, Filio told the whole story about Team Flare's information and his own analysis.

There are only a few people sitting in the huge headquarters conference hall at the moment, and the rest have dispersed to various places to perform tasks.

Most of the reinforcements are still on the way, and the crazy wild Pokémon all over the reserve need to be urgently controlled.

This took up a lot of troops. Therefore, even though a short period of time had passed and all places had taken efficient actions, the alliance still only carried out control on the periphery of the protected area.

Large troops will not arrive until at least tomorrow, and even elite assault forces will not be able to launch an attack until late at night.

If the other party evacuates too quickly and goes deep into the mountains and forests, it is possible that all efforts will be in vain.

After a brief conversation, Fu Ye, the owner of Bizhi Gym, slowly stood up, took the communicator handed over by Jun Sha, and said:

"Young man, and Korni, this is the headquarters, and I am Fu Ye. I hope you can continue to find ways to track and investigate Team Flare's situation, obtain some intelligence, and guide the large forces arriving later to surround them.

.This is very dangerous, so the decision to stay or go is up to you. Tonight at the latest, an elite force will rush over to cooperate with you in attacking the remnants of Team Flare."

"There is no problem with the investigation and guidance, Master Fuye."

"Well, if Philio and I are together, there will be no problem."

After thinking for a moment, Filio agreed in a deep voice, and Kerni also echoed.

Neither of them seemed to notice anything wrong with Philio being the main character.

However, several people in the conference hall, especially Muriel, the principal of Salo Academy who had been unable to sit still for a long time, did not see it that way.

"This brat..."

Muriel's brows relaxed slightly, his worries were relieved, and he began to think about what was to come.

"Both of you, I am the person in charge of the Northwest Police, Kenya Junsha. Although I know this idea is a bit overwhelming, if possible, I hope you can help contain the Flare Team and prevent them from evacuating too quickly. From

Looking at the map, if they are allowed to move more than 100 kilometers south, they will leave the mountainous area with a single road and enter the forest area. In that case, encirclement and suppression will be very difficult."

Junsha, who had just handed over the communicator, suddenly stepped forward and looked embarrassed.

She also knew that it was unrealistic for two people fighting alone to stop the numerous remnants of Team Flare, especially when they did not know the specific information about the opponent and they would undoubtedly put themselves at risk if they attacked rashly.
p>

"Bang"

Sure enough, before he finished speaking, Muriel, who had just been thinking about something, started to take action.

"Do you know what you are talking about? Let two young people stop a group of vicious criminals?! My students and the curator of Salo had an accident. Can you take responsibility? It's yours to contain the Flare Team.

Responsibility and extra costs are also the consequences that you people should bear for your negligence!"

He is completely different from the usual smiling image. At this moment, Muriel is so eager to protect his disciples, like a angry-eyed Vajra, pressing down on Junsha with force, even a bit stronger than Fu Ye.

The round Gengar exuded a formidable aura, and the air in the entire conference hall seemed to solidify.

"Okay Muriel, even though you are already this age, you are still as relaxed as you were when you were young." When Junsha looked gloomy and uncertain, Mr. Fu spoke calmly again, his smile not weakening at all, "Don't let it go

The young people are laughing at the joke. Korni, and Filio, just do what you said before. No matter how much manpower and material resources are invested in destroying the Flare Team, it will not be a waste."

"This still looks good. Remember to protect yourselves. We will go to support you tonight."

Muriel was still angry, but he also calmed down his temper and returned to his seat, but he did not conceal his care for Philio.

"Yes, principal. We..."

On the other end of the communicator, Filio responded in a deep voice.

However, before he finished speaking, Kerni tugged at the corner of his clothes, shook his head, and took the communicator.

"Master Fu, Principal Muriel, Miss Junsha, I am Korni. I heard what you said. Miss Junsha is right, we cannot let them retreat calmly. I will find a way to contain them, but I

If you say it first, the effect may not be very good."

Under Filio's slightly helpless gaze, Korni still chose the more difficult task completion mode.

"Master Kerni? You don't need..."

Muriel wanted to say something more, but before she finished speaking, Korni spoke again.

"The protected area and the alliance also need to come for reinforcements as soon as possible. Is this okay?"

"Yes, at twelve o'clock tonight at the latest, I will definitely be able to gather a team and arrive, and I will lead the team myself."

Junsha was overjoyed and replied immediately.

"Then please, let's go now."

As soon as she finished speaking, Kerni hung up the communication.

Seeing that it was a done deal, Muriel had nothing to say. He glared at Junsha with a frosty face and walked away.

Looking at his friend walking away and Junsha looking embarrassed, Master Fu sighed: "Oh, Kenya, you were sure that Kerni's kid wouldn't refuse, so you deliberately provoked her, right?

”

"I..."

Junsha was so embarrassed when her true feelings were revealed, she hesitated for a long time and was speechless.

"You have a grudge against Team Flare and want to kill them all. I can understand your feelings. But this time you are too aggressive. I will report it to the Kalos Alliance headquarters. I went to Area A. You can think about what happened.

Let’s do it.”

After finishing speaking, Mr. Fu stood up and walked out of the conference room with his hands behind his back, leaving only Junsha and the person in charge of the protected area who had been silent.

"Area A will send a team to cooperate with you, so leave as soon as possible."

After closing the notebook, the person in charge of the reserve, a strong middle-aged man, said in a deep voice.

------------------

"As soon as they set off, I will stop them. Philio, you will cover me from a distance. If the situation is not good, then..."

"Stop."

In the hidden dense forest, Korni's tactics were simple and direct. After speaking, she wanted to set off, but was grabbed by Filio and dragged back to the original place.

"There is a serious lack of information. We cannot act rashly. Please calm down."

"Filio, I know you are doing it for my own good, and I also know that you are smarter than me. But I am the gym leader, and I must stop these villains. Miss Junsha is right, only by annihilating them in the mountains can we

It is the optimal solution. Letting them escape would be very risky, and we cannot allow such things to appear elsewhere."

Korni gently broke away from Filio's hand, her tone was firm, and her eyes were clear.

She is not impulsive, but makes decisions based on her own identity and responsibility.

At this moment, she was no longer the cute little cucumber she usually was, but the dashing and heroic Sara Gym Leader, a powerful fighting trainer.

"So, do you think I will stop you by force?"

He skillfully grabbed the ponytail and asked, while applying a little force.

Philio is already a little annoyed.

He understood Korni's mood, but he knew even more that this fool must not have thought about what he was going to do or how to do it.

"Ah, wow, wow, don't pull!" The handsome image disappeared in a second. Korni held her head in grievance and looked at Filio, "Isn't it? You and grandpa are the same, you have to complain about me!"<

/p>

"If you were the only one here, I would scold you and tell you not to go anywhere. But now I am here."

Philio nodded, his tone strong and unquestionable.

"I understand your identity and position, but I won't let you put yourself in danger. Just do as I say, and we can still stop them. Do you understand?"

Speaking of the latter part, Philio emphasized his tone.

"Oh...how to do it?"

In front of Philio, who showed a rare strong side, Korni became weak for no reason, walked to her side timidly, gently grabbed his hand, and asked.

She was very puzzled.

Team Flare is obviously going to leave soon, so many of the mechanisms are useless. Besides confronting the enemy head-on and running away with just one shot, what other options are there?

I asked as soon as I thought of it, and the outspoken Kerni confessed her confusion.

"Pa"

"You hit me on the head again!"

Cucumber, who was hit by the map roll, squatted down with his head in his arms, feeling extremely aggrieved.

"If you don't look at the map and don't make plans, if I'm not around, you'll just crash into it and become a prisoner of Team Flare, right? When I get back, I'll have to let Grandpa Cocobul teach you a lesson."

Looking at Korni who looked confused, Filio was still angry, but he couldn't bear to hit her hard, so he could only tap her on the head gently, and then he tried to take a deep breath to calm down.

Sitting down next to Korni and pulling her over, Filio unfolded the map again, pointed at several points marked with many contents, and explained patiently.

First of all, this is a mountainous area, and there are not many roads that can accommodate these wooden carts carrying a lot of supplies. From the perspective of concealment, the Flare Team has not purchased expensive and fast large aircraft, so they can only evacuate slowly by land.
p>

Secondly, before Korni's arrival, he had already briefly explored Team Flare's evacuation route by taking advantage of the opportunity to clean up the agency. Occasionally there would be detours, so he was prepared in advance, especially since Team Flare would consider themselves safe.

Area.

Finally, and most importantly, even if there are a few elite trainers, the opponent has a lot of possessions and not many flying Pokémon that can guide people. The overall mobility is still not as good as the two people with roller skating devices for outdoor use.
p>

Even if there are a few who can catch up, they probably won't be able to defeat the two who have a tacit understanding.

Therefore, there is no need for them to fight head-on. Instead, they must use their strengths and avoid weaknesses, and use various mechanisms to block attacks at all levels. They do not seek to annihilate the enemy, but to block the enemy so that the other party will have concerns and dare not move forward at full speed.

"Oh, I understand when you say that!"

Philio's words were reasonable and well-founded, causing Korni to nod subconsciously.

"Then do as I said, prepare the combat cubes, and let Lucario and the others take them with them, just in case. Come with me now, the first shot must be fired. We have to...

."

The special roller skates were as smooth as walking in the mountains and forests, and Philio's whispers were blown away in the morning wind.

------------------

"Let's go now! Go at full speed! The road openers change every half an hour, and those who are exploring the road and on guard should cheer up! No one can hold us back!"

Outside the stronghold, Akbi was riding on a sturdy goat. He waved his hand and shouted orders.

Nearly 300 people, including combatants and scientific researchers, and their families and families were dragged along, and the team of 30 large vehicles set off slowly.

In addition to the large escort force of the team, scouts and sentries spread out like beans, serving as peripheral security according to the previous arrangement.

From an important intelligence source within the alliance, these remnants of the Flames knew that the alliance was moving at an unprecedented speed, and the location of the base had most likely been exposed.

Although there is no evidence, Akbi and the others are vaguely aware that there is a very expert "tail" hidden near the stronghold.

This was the first time she regretted choosing a base in a barren mountain that was completely inaccessible to vehicles.

Hidden, it actually became a hindrance during evacuation.

But now there is no choice. All she and her companions can do is to evacuate at full speed and find a way to find out the "tail" that does not exist.

The sluggish team continued to speed up in the mountains.

The wooden vehicle, which has been specially modified to adapt to mountain operations, has strong carrying capacity and light weight. With the drag of the strength Pokémon, the speed is actually not very slow. It can not only carry goods, but also a small number of members who take turns to rest.

.

But compared to the high-speed maneuvering Philio and Korni, they are completely on a different level.

No matter how hard they try, the remnants of the Flare Team, who have a great family and a great business, will never be able to drive easily. There is always a limit to speed.

------------------

Protected area, area A station.

The vast majority of the students in the advanced class of Salo Academy have returned to the city under the escort of the alliance branch, leaving only a few powerful students to participate in the follow-up actions under the protection of the teachers.

But this small camp did not become empty and deserted, but became more lively.

Hundreds of trainers gather here.

There are trainers recruited from Salo, Biyi and surrounding cities.

There are police forces and direct trainers from various alliance branches.

There are Sala Gym, Biyi Gym and several unofficial gym apprentices and gym full-time trainers.

There are also powerful rangers reinforced from various areas of the reserve.

And, a group of fighting teachers from Salo Academy.

Under the arrangements of temporary commander-in-chief Fu Ye, everyone is doing their job nervously and effectively.

Most of the people joined Fu Ye and divided their forces into multiple groups to suppress the rampaging wild Pokémon.

Since the life safety of wild Pokémon must be protected to the greatest extent and cannot be killed at will, even if these trainers are all very powerful, the progress cannot be made quickly.

Fortunately, some crazy Pokémon have gradually returned to normal over time, but their physical deficits are very serious, but their lives are not in danger.

This gave trainers a shot in the arm, making them more motivated to fight, capture and rescue.

At this moment, in the center of the camp, sixty or seventy trainers, old and young, wearing alliance standard combat uniforms, lined up.

At the front of the team were Muriel, who still had a cold face, and Kenya Junsa, who kept whispering next to him.

Seeing everyone arriving, Muriel waved his hand.

"Let's go!"

Dozens of large flying Pokémon took off at the same time and flew toward the southeast.

They will make a large circle to intercept the remnants of Team Flare fleeing south.

Flying in the front is a sturdy fire-breathing dragon, with a tower-like tough guy standing on its back.

------------------

It is 40 kilometers south of the boundary of Area A of the protected area, not far from the secret stronghold of Team Flare.

Although it hadn't been long since they set off, several members of the Flare Team who had been cutting down obstructing trees to clear the way for the truck were already a little tired.

In addition, this place is a security area that is usually strictly fortified, so a few people feel a little relaxed.

"Fran, you have the defense plan, go ahead and lead the way."

A man dressed as a squad leader instructs a young man wearing glasses holding a defense map.

Although the soldier named Fran was not relaxed, under the order, he could only reluctantly step forward and stride forward according to the instructions of the defense map.

"Captain, why do we have to go through so much trouble to open a road and conduct reconnaissance? There is clearly security here..."

Fran complained as he split open a particularly lush weed, obviously dissatisfied with his hard work.

"Whoosh"

"Tu tu tu tu"

Before he finished speaking, his entire sight was filled with tiny needles like locusts.

"Safety..."

With full confusion, Fran lost consciousness and lay down on the ground breathlessly, his face covered with poisonous purple.

In the same situation as him, there are a whole team of four other people.

The specially prepared toxin from his immediate boss, Team Flare scientist Akobi, has extremely vicious effects.

------------------

At the same moment when Fran and others triggered the mechanism and everyone's lives were hanging by a thread, the two wings of the team.

Sixty-seven eagles and eagles soar high in the sky.

Above the ground, every few hundred meters, there is a team of five people moving forward in formation, accompanied by canine Pokémon with a keen sense of smell.

"Di"

A subtle reminder sounded in Filio's palm.

"The mechanism is triggered, take action!"

With a loud shout, Philio rushed out from behind the tree first, followed closely by the terrifying black shadow.

"Leave it to me!"

With her brilliant blond hair floating in the sun, Korni looked at the remnants of Team Flare in front of her as if they were nothing and rushed straight into the enemy formation.

A faint purple mist slowly rises from beneath the ground.
Chapter completed!
