Chapter 462 The Connector: Li Luochen is about to unleash his power.
"Is this Master's dojo? It's magnificent!"
While there was still some time, Li Luochen pulled his three young apprentices, You Teng Shengdai, Xiao An, and Li Ke, over from the academy.
The three of them walked out of Hupa's golden ring, looked up at the enormous ancient Donghuang-style architectural complex in front of them, and were dumbfounded.
With its blue bricks and gray tiles, upturned eaves, and vermilion gate, Regigigas and Latios crouched on either side.
Above the entrance hangs a plaque with the four large characters "Minrong Taoist Temple" written in vigorous strokes and a profound and majestic style.
Yuto Seida's mouth gaped open, and it took her a long time to finally manage to utter a single sentence.
It seems I've really found a good backer!
Yuto Seida silently crossed out the goal of "training diligently with Master" in her mind and replaced it with "staying close to Master".
She glanced at Xiao An and Li Ke again.
Xiao An was also shocked, taking pictures from various angles with her phone while muttering to herself; Li Ke stood quietly at the bottom of the steps, looking up at the plaque, her fingers unconsciously touching the hexagonal pendant on her chest.
hum~
Two country bumpkins.
Yuto Seida subconsciously raised her chin, a sense of superiority creeping up from the corner of her mouth.
boom!
Just as Yu Teng Shengdai was feeling a sense of superiority, Li Luochen raised his hand and gently tapped her forehead with just the right amount of force, interrupting her growing little thoughts.
"The three of you should get along well, okay?"
Li Luochen's gaze swept from You Teng Shengdai's face to Xiao An, and then fell on Li Ke. He slowly said, "These three are all my good disciples. They should get along like good sisters and not quarrel every day."
Yuto Seida covered her forehead, pursed her lips, and remained silent.
Xiao An put down her phone and stuck her tongue out at her.
Only Riko obediently hummed in agreement.
Seeing that only Riko was behaving so well, Li Luochen reached out and ruffled her hair: "Yuto Seidai, Xiao An, you two should learn from Riko."
Li Ke lowered her head slightly as he rubbed her.
Yuto Seida pouted and reluctantly said "Oh".
"good!"
Xiao An responded quickly.
It's hard to tell how sincere they are, but at least they've shown their attitude.
"The lolicon has brought his little sister back again."
At the gate, Coral leaned against the door frame, her gaze sweeping over Yuto Seidai, Xiao An, and Riko one by one.
Coral strongly condemns Li Luochen's behavior.
Seeing this, Li Luochen dismissed the three and told them to go play by themselves. Then, he picked up Coral with one hand and strode into the dojo.
"Hmm!"
Coral was lifted by the back of her collar, her feet off the ground, swaying wildly in mid-air, her arms flailing erratically.
"What are you doing to the coral? Even though coral is cute, you can't bully it!"
"I'm a maid, not your wife. You can't lay a hand on me!"
She shouted louder and louder, and kicked harder and harder.
As I passed the corner of the corridor, Shi Lan was carrying a stack of neatly organized documents. Upon seeing me, she slightly stepped aside to let me pass, her gaze behind her glasses completely unwavering, as if she were used to this scene.
Li Luochen carried Coral through the corridor, his steps unhurried: "If you hadn't mentioned it, I would have forgotten. You're a maid, but you're not wearing your uniform, so five thousand will be deducted."
"This is malicious deduction of wages; I'm going to sue you!"
Coral kicked her legs and said fiercely.
"Oh, you mean you're going to sue me on my turf?"
Li Luochen stopped and looked down at her, a half-smile on his face.
Coral froze in her struggle and couldn't utter a single word for a long time.
"Alright, go change into your work clothes." Li Luochen patted Shanhu's shoulder and gently placed her back on the ground.
Coral pursed her lips, wanting to say something but swallowing it back.
She realized that reasoning with this man was pointless.
So, I had no choice but to obediently change into my work clothes.
Coral's uniform was a black and white maid outfit, with a skirt that reached her knees and an apron tied into a neat bow at the back of her waist. White stockings covered her calves, and she instantly transformed from a flustered kitten into a dignified maid.
Acerola, who was passing by in the corridor, happened to witness this scene and her gaze lingered on Coral for a moment.
A moment later, she silently returned to her room, and when she came out again, she had changed into the same black and white maid outfit.
"Hey~ Brother Luo Chen, how does Acerola look in this outfit?"
Acerola twirled in front of Li Luochen, her skirt fluttering slightly, revealing a small section of her leg above her knee, covered by white stockings.
"If there's anything I didn't do well, could Brother Luo Chen teach Acerola-chan?"
Li Luochen is someone who is bad at saying no.
His ability to refuse drops exponentially, especially when the other person speaks to him in this tone, with this expression, and at this distance.
Since Acerola has a problem, I have to help her solve it.
After all, I'm a kind-hearted person!
"There's a slight flaw, but it's not a big deal. Come to my room, I'll teach you."
"Okay~"
......
......
Kanto region, Pallet Town, Oki Research Lab.
"Haa..."
Qinglu came down from the second floor rubbing her eyes, her hair sticking up in a mess, and she was still wearing her pajamas, looking like she had been dragged out of bed.
He yawned, barely lifting his eyelids, and asked, "Grandpa, what's the matter that you suddenly called me for?"
Professor Oak peeked out from behind his desk, waving an opened envelope in his hand.
"This is an invitation from the Battle City in the Carlos region. I'm an old man and don't want to go through all that trouble. You and Shigeru can go together."
"An invitation to battle against the fortress?"
Qinglu took the letter and glanced at it.
He had studied in the Carlos region before, so he naturally knew what a battle fortress was.
That's the battle mecca of the Kalos region, where countless trainers from all over the world flock every year just to have a match in that castle.
However, the Battle Fortress never actively invites people.
Trainers always scramble to apply for challenge slots; the fortress never proactively extends invitations.
Why is this an exception?
Professor Oak smiled at this.
He guessed that young talents from all over the country had probably received similar invitations.
This time, the four sisters of the Battle City Fortress seem to be serious – they want both money and manpower.
Donghuang region, Team Rocket's temporary base.
"Hey! Kojiro, what's that?"
Musashi, with his sharp eyes, immediately noticed the antique envelope in Kojiro's hand, with a shield-shaped emblem faintly visible on the wax seal.
Before Kojiro could answer, she snatched it away, pried open the seal with her fingernails, and quickly scanned a few lines of the letter.
After reading it, she raised an eyebrow and slammed the letter on the table.
"A battle against a fortress? You want to go fight? Kojiro, you're not thinking of sneaking off to eat something delicious, are you?"
Kojiro shrugged, looking completely innocent. "I just received it too, I haven't had a chance to look at it yet."
Such incidents have occurred in various regions.
"A battle against a fortress? Heh, let's go check it out. Maybe my distant cousin is there too."
"Since I'm going to help Luo Chen, I'll see it through to the end. Mikoli, can you temporarily manage the alliance for me? I'm going to the Carlos region."
"Higana, go and broaden your horizons."
"N, plan suspended, proceed to the Carlos region."
Things seem to be getting interesting...

Hmm, there will be more illustrations when we're fighting fortresses. Let's see if we can make a four-panel comic strip to improve everyone's viewing experience.
A few clicks to urge for more updates, a few free gifts, and a five-star review would be greatly appreciated!
