Milotic's eye twitched, and she curled up her tail in pain. Clearly, even a tail as hard as steel gained no advantage against the anchor's attack.
Fortunately, the anchor had not come out unscathed either. Its chain rapidly retracted along the seabed, disappearing in the blink of an eye.
Over on the other side, Uncle Hu's Primarina had also repelled the anchor. He hurried over to Ye Qing to thank him for helping. Otherwise, if anything had happened to the young lady, he really would have been unable to escape blame.
Su Yiqin was badly shaken as well. Although she knew everything would be fine with Ye Qing there, she had still been scared out of her wits when that anchor shot toward her.
After a brief rest, Uncle Hu looked troubled. "Miss, the waters around here have changed. I'm afraid there may be stronger wild Pokémon guarding the shipwreck. I suggest we go back and discuss this again. Otherwise, it'll be difficult for just the three of us to ensure our safety."
"Dhelmise, the Pokémon said to be able to kill a Wailord single-handedly and easily punch through a ship?"
Ye Qing took an interest in this Pokémon. Dhelmise was one of seafarers' favorite Pokémon, and every captain used Dhelmise to show off their strength.
If someone managed to catch an overlord or shiny Dhelmise, they could practically be hailed as the king of these waters.
After hearing this, Su Yiqin did not reply. Instead, she looked at Ye Qing, wanting to know what he intended to do.
Uncle Hu gave Ye Qing a suspicious look. Who exactly is this kid? Why does our young lady seem to do everything he says?
"Let's continue."
Ye Qing noticed Su Yiqin's gaze. After a moment's thought, he decided to keep exploring.
