Pokémon Devil King

Chapter 321 The Clown

More than an hour later, the fighter spacecraft landed on the landing pad in Liuli City, and the hum of the engine gradually subsided.

Outside the porthole, the unique colored glass dome of Liuli City reflected a dreamy luster in the afternoon sun. The ships anchored in the port swayed gently with the waves, and the sea breeze rushed into the newly opened hatch with a salty but fresh scent.

"Dana~" Venusaur was the first to walk out of the cabin, its huge body stretched out in the sun, its vines swaying gently, keenly sensing the surrounding environment.

Following closely behind are Jiuji and Daidai.

Adam was already waiting at the tarmac.

The leader of the Liuli Gym, a master of the water system, was now wearing a dark blue training suit that was easy for him to move in, and his temperament was still elegant and calm.

"I didn't expect to see you again so soon, Jiuji." Adam stepped forward, his sea-blue eyes showing a gentle smile, and his eyes swept over the two Pokémon, "It seems that you have gained a lot during this period of time."

"Thanks to Mr. Adam for your good words, it's not bad." Jiuji bowed slightly and said concisely, "This time I came here to establish a coordination point."

"Well, the alliance has already synchronized it with me. When it doesn't cost money, their efficiency is still quite good." He stepped aside to lead the way. "The temporary command center is being prepared. For the time being, we'll just stay in the Liuli Gym."

Citizens and tourists along the way are still immersed in a happy and peaceful atmosphere. Promotional banners for the gorgeous competition can be seen everywhere, and vendors are selling special snacks.

"Mr. Adam, don't you want to ask something?" Jiuji asked as they walked. No abnormalities had been detected near Liuli Island, but they were required to enter for pre-disaster prevention.

"There's nothing to ask." Adam waved his hand. "The money came from Yajing, and the people came from the Alliance. If something goes wrong, we took precautions in advance, which is a good thing. If nothing goes wrong, even if it's just a drill, it won't do any harm to Liuli City."

He is not a new guy who has just taken office, so he has to ask everything clearly.

Jiuji was silent. It seemed to be true. Apart from the trouble of transferring personnel and a few more things to do, there was really no difference to Mr. Adam.

……

The interior of the Liuli Dojo is undergoing a temporary renovation.

The battlefield was divided into multiple functional areas. The huge holographic screen was displaying real-time satellite cloud images of the eastern waters of Hoenn, ocean current dynamics, energy fluctuation monitoring data, and the execution status of the Yajing Group's "Ark" plan.

The dark blue uniforms of the Alliance Investigation Bureau, the dark green outfits of the forest rangers, and several technicians wearing the badges of the Yajing Group were debugging the equipment.

Jiuji's arrival caused a small commotion.

"You must be the special coordinator, Ms. Jiuji." A middle-aged woman wearing the uniform of the Union Investigation Bureau stepped forward. Her voice was steady but lacked warmth. "I am the special commissioner of the Investigation Bureau, Lijia. The current monitoring data is summarized here."

She pointed to a sub-screen next to the main screen, on which a complex stream of data was scrolling: "The deep-sea energy pulse is normal and the frequency is stable. No large-scale biological migration or panic signs have been detected. The activity pattern of water Pokémon in some areas has indeed changed slightly, but it is still within the normal range."

She pronounced the words "slightly" and "normal range" particularly clearly.

"In accordance with instructions, we have increased the frequency of patrols along the coastline and offshore islands, and have not yet found any signs of large-scale activities by the water fleet." Another ranger captain interjected, but his hands subconsciously adjusted his cuffs.

He emphasized the word "large-scale".

After the two finished their reports, their eyes met briefly and then quickly separated.

There was a moment of subtle silence in the room. They did not raise any objections, maintaining their impeccable professionalism.

However, the deliberately neutral tone, the precise wording with qualifiers, and the long period of time when his eyes intentionally or unintentionally avoided contact with Jiuji during the report all silently conveyed doubts.

As one of the departments with the heaviest field work in the alliance, Jiuji's request more than doubled their workload.

It would be fine if they could find any abnormalities, but all monitoring results pointed to "nothing happening", which inevitably left a trace of unspeakable dissatisfaction in their hearts.

"How is the 'Ark' plan being implemented by the Yajing Group?" Jiuji turned his gaze to the head of his own group and spoke in a steady tone.

Of course she knew that people in the alliance had objections, but as Mr. Adam said, it was Yajing's money that was being spent, and the noise would not affect the core plan.

Security Chief Fujiwara immediately stepped forward, stood tall, and looked at Jiuji with a scorching gaze: "Miss!"

"The 'Ark' plan is being implemented at full speed. All 'Pokémon-friendly eco-resort' projects on the eastern coast have been suspended as per your instructions. Personnel and equipment are being evacuated to the orange buffer zone and green safety zone. Evacuation is expected to be completed in 5 hours." She spoke clearly and fluently, and every word was powerful.

Fujiwara tapped his finger, and the main screen instantly switched, accurately locking onto the target area: "Red high-risk evacuation zone, 60% of the personnel in our facilities have been evacuated."

"The remaining 40% are a skeleton team that is implementing the 'fortress' reinforcement protocol to ensure completion and safe evacuation within 8 hours."

On the screen, green spots of light representing Yajing's power gathered efficiently to form a clear security network, and the logistics routes flashed dark blue, representing "absolutely smooth".

"The transformation of the three large underground storage and shelters has been completed by 30%. Non-essential materials have been cleared out and fully loaded survival kits and high-energy Pokémon cubes are being prepared. Once completed, the maximum capacity and coordinates will be synchronized to the Alliance Coordination Center to ensure seamless connection."

She glanced at the material transportation route map and her tone became more excited.

"In terms of material support, the group's three core factories in Fengyuan have entered a 24-hour wartime production state. The first batch of key materials have been sent out via the optimal route to ensure accurate delivery to the six green safety zones and all designated resettlement points of the alliance within 12 hours."

"Subsequent batches will be supplied in a rolling manner to ensure the supply chain will not be interrupted!"

Listening to Fujiwara's clear and even proud report, and looking at the emergency plan network on the screen that operated efficiently and far exceeded the official response speed, Specialist Lijia and the captain of the forest rangers felt a little uncomfortable. Why did they suddenly feel like clowns?

He did so much and didn't say anything, even though there might be a large bonus...

Emmm, when I think about it this way, it makes me look more like a clown?_?.

"Well done, Fujiwara." Kyuki nodded, a hint of approval in his voice.

Then he turned to Adam and Lijia, his calm gaze carrying an unquestionable driving force: "On the Alliance side, what is the progress of the specific connection and resource coordination between the 'Gaola' plan and the 'Ark'?"

"I need to ensure that the channels and supplies we provide can effectively support the alliance's evacuation operations."

Lijia quickly came back to her senses: "The command center has authorized you to have Class B temporary dispatch authority. The Junsha police force, forest ranger team, and some engineering rescue teams in Liuli City and the three surrounding towns will give priority to responding to your coordination instructions."

"Some of the disaster relief supplies in the alliance's reserve have also been shipped and are expected to arrive at the Liuli City warehouse within 24 hours."

"In addition, we have requested assistance from the Joy family, who will set up at least five additional temporary medical stations in the Green Safety Zone."

Adam added: "The Liuli Gym itself has a certain disaster-resistant structure and underground space, which can be used as a temporary front-line command and personnel shelter."

"Thank you." Jiuji walked to the main console, let Qizi take over, and called up the holographic map. "This is 'Emerald Cliff', a resort affiliated facility of Yajing Group that has been completed but not yet opened. It has a solid structure, a complete underground space and independent energy. It has a wide field of view and is easy to defend but difficult to attack. It is recommended to be used as a core front-line observation station and command backup node."

"Commissioner Lijia, please arrange for personnel to connect with our technical team as soon as possible to complete the installation of communication and monitoring equipment."

"Understood!" Lijia responded and immediately turned around to make arrangements.

Orders were issued in an orderly manner, and personnel from all parties worked efficiently. The gym was filled with the sound of communications, keyboard typing, and hurried footsteps.

Jiuji stood in front of the huge screen, staring at the deep blue area marked as the "Eye of the Abyss". The data was still stable, and the blue area was vast, like a sleeping, harmless deep blue gem.

"Dai?" Daidai felt her gaze and made a puzzled sound.

"It's nothing." She whispered, as if she was talking to Dai Dai, or as if she was talking to herself, "We will do what we can, and the result will not be worse than before."

Ok?
