Chapter 314: If you don’t answer, you are a human?
"Hahaha!" Tiexuan suddenly burst into a hearty laugh and patted Jiuji's shoulder vigorously, "Good! What a little girl who cares about Pokémon! I, the old man, agree!"
Jiuji's eyes flashed with a smile: "Thank you so much, Mr. Tiexuan!"
The strategy was correct. Judging from the fact that Mr. Tiexuan had to place the "Thunder God" he made in an abandoned power plant, there was indeed a problem with the funds of the Zijin Gym.
"Don't thank me so quickly!" Tiexuan waved his hand. "The equipment can reproduce a few sets of cores for you, but the blueprints and core debugging technology cannot be given to you."
"I'll have Walter prepare a detailed list for you, clearly listing what materials are needed, how much space is needed, and the energy interface specifications. In addition, you have to send the equipment data back every three months so that I can see the progress of the little guys and do remote calibration! How do you think?"
"No problem!" Jiuji responded without hesitation, "Happy cooperation, Mr. Tiexuan!" She extended her hand.
"Happy cooperation!" Tie Xuan also smiled and held her hand. An impromptu "business negotiation" was concluded in a relaxed and pleasant atmosphere.
Walter quickly recorded the key points with a smile on his face. It would be beneficial to the development of the laboratory and the teacher if the teacher could find a collaborator like Miss Jiuji who has both strength and resources and respects technology.
A few days later, at the port of Zijin City.
Jiuji's combat spacecraft was quietly parked in a dedicated berth.
Inside the cabin, on the side close to the training area, renovation is underway in full swing.
Several technicians wearing Yajing Group uniforms, under the guidance of Walter, the assistant sent by Tiexuan, carefully installed several brand-new equipment - an electrostatic guidance maze, an energy field generator that simulates different electromagnetic environments, and a reaction target system for testing and enhancing the instantaneous explosive power of electrical skills.
The spacecraft's own powerful energy system provides them with stable power.
After the installation was completed, Pichu curiously peeked around the new equipment, the small white helmet on its head gleaming with metallic luster under the light.
Leiqiu put his hands on his hips and looked at these new "toys" with satisfaction, feeling that the dignity he had gained by abandoning Lei Lei and staying on the spaceship was worth it.
Pokkigu regained his former liveliness, flying around the cabin and looking at the new changes curiously.
Jiuji sat in front of the console, sliding her finger across the light screen to call up the alliance task list. Currently, the progress of badges was higher than that of ribbons. Shuijing City was going to hold a gorgeous competition in a few days, so she planned to find a suitable task to enrich her life during this period.
Soon, a task caught her attention:
[Emergency Rescue]: Abnormal vibration in the Chimney Mountain area!
[Location]: The northern foot of Chimney Mountain, near Route 118.
【Content】: It has been monitored that small-scale geological activities have been unusually frequent in Chimney Mountain recently. A small local landslide occurred last night, blocking part of Route 118 and trapping several trainers and wild Pokémon. It is necessary to assist Miss Junsha and the rangers in clearing the road, rescuing people, and calming/evacuating wild Pokémon.
[Level]: B
[Points]: 800 (basic) + additional points depending on the situation (up to 200)
【Timeliness】: Urgent, needs to arrive as soon as possible.
[Note]: This section of road is one of the important channels leading to Shuijing City, and the blockage has caused traffic disruption.
"The northern foot of Chimney Mountain, Route 118..." Jiuji's fingertips slid across the star map navigation. Zijin City, Chimney Mountain, and Shuijing City were almost in a straight line on the map.
This was a task that almost hit her in the face. Would she be a human being if she didn't accept it? She barely hesitated, and with a tap of her fingertips, she accepted the task. The task details and coordinates were instantly synchronized to the spacecraft navigation system.
"Qizi, updated target: the northern foot of Chimney Mountain, the blocked point of Route 118. Go at full speed."
"Command confirmed, route corrected, estimated arrival time: 1 hour and 15 minutes."
The spaceship's engine emitted a low hum, and it accelerated steadily, leaving Zijin Harbor and flying towards the outline of a volcano in the distance.
……
The scene at the northern foot of Chimney Mountain was more confusing than the mission description indicated.
The spacecraft hovered at a safe altitude, and Jiuji looked down through the porthole.
The originally flat Road 118 is now covered with a large amount of gray-black volcanic rocks, broken trees and soil, forming a "scar" nearly meters long.
Several smashed station wagons were parked crookedly on the side of the road. Fortunately, they seemed to have been only affected by the falling rocks and were not completely buried.
On both sides of the road, Miss Junsha's motorcycle and the forest ranger's jeep were flashing warning lights.
Several forest rangers were directing a few strong and powerful creatures to carefully carry relatively small stones to clear a narrow passage that was only wide enough for one person to pass through.
A few frightened Sandshrews and Geodudes were running around in panic at the edge of the ruins, and a few Gulps were circling in the low sky, making uneasy calls. The air was filled with dust and a faint smell of sulfur.
"Investigator Jiuji, thank you for arriving on time!" A tall and capable Miss Junsha connected to the spacecraft through the communicator. "I am Junshalin, who is in charge of this area. The situation is more complicated than expected."
"The landslide is huge, and it is too inefficient to clear it with manpower. In addition, we have detected unstable areas on the mountain, so we dare not use heavy machinery or high-powered skills rashly for fear of causing secondary disasters."
"It has been confirmed that three trainers are trapped in the buried area on the other side of the landslide. Their lives are not in danger, but they are unable to pass through."
"In addition, the populations of Fist Rocks and Rumble Rocks living in this area have been severely frightened. Some individuals are trapped in the cracks of the rocks. They are very agitated and may explode at any time. It is very dangerous."
"I understand." Jiuji's voice was calm, "I can be responsible for clearing the main passage and rescuing, pacifying and evacuating the Pokémon group. I need the cooperation of the ranger to provide information about the group leader or Pokémon with high trust."
"Okay! Ranger Captain Kenci is right next to me. He will assist you in dealing with the Pokémon issue!" Jun Shalin spoke quickly.
"Okay, Daidai, Huahua, Baobao, Luna, and Gengar, let's go." Jiuji stood up, and the buckle of his tactical belt jingled softly. "The rest of you stay on standby on the spaceship. I'll let Daidai come to pick you up if needed."
Pichu nodded repeatedly while wearing a brand new white helmet. After no longer being seasick, he felt much more energetic. However, he also knew that now was the time to do serious work, and it would be better for his small body to stay in a safe place.
"Poko!" Pokkigu's gender changed a lot after evolution, or in other words, its positioning was adjusted. It felt that it should stay with Jiuji at this time.
"Okay, but you have to stay by my side and be responsible for observing the surroundings. You are not allowed to approach the dangerous area without permission." Jiuji did not refuse.
During the gym competition, she realized that Pokémon was no longer the little child who needed care, and began to take on responsibilities in some areas.
"Po~" Pokkigu rubbed his head against Jiuji, indicating that he would definitely not do anything rash.
