On the other side, in an abandoned warehouse on the edge of the town, it was completely different from the cheerful atmosphere in the center of the town.
The ninja man Laerte was leaning against a wall irritably.
Not far away, Marilyn slumped facelessly on a broken chair with a missing leg.
Her carefully matched and gorgeous clothes were now covered in dust, and her hair was a little messy.
At the same time, both of them looked extremely ugly.
As a long-established figure in the world of thieves, not only was he beaten to the point of running away, but he was also as embarrassed as a rookie who had just come out of Novice Village.
Especially for Mari Ling, Steven's behavior is simply a shame and a huge insult to her!
"Damn it, why is the champion of Hoenn Region here? Didn't he say he likes rocks? Doesn't he need to go back to dig rocks?"
Mari Ling scratched her hair irritably, her voice filled with Grudge that had nowhere to vent.
Anyone who likes rocks is just a damn lolita control, so he will be punished sooner or later.
"Hey~, it's difficult!"
Mari Ling let out a long sigh.
She really couldn't think of any way to take food from that dead lolita.
That guy's Metagross, his fist was bigger than her head, and when he fired Illuminate, she felt like she could stand shoulder to shoulder with the sun.
Mary's heart bleeds when she thinks of Diancie, who is covered in pink diamonds.
Could it be that this priceless business was just blown away?
"In addition to the champion Steven, the one named Xiaoyun is also very powerful. If we go head-to-head, we can hardly take advantage."
Laerte spat, spitting out the grass clippings in his mouth, and added in his mind.
Not only can't you take advantage, it's like an old man eating arsenic because he thinks he will live longer.
"Hey, can you stop talking nonsense? You were running very fast just now."
"Or is it that the way of tolerance of your ninjas is to bully the weak and fear the strong?"
Mari Ling rolled her eyes at him, and the sarcasm in her tone almost solidified into substance.
Yes, it is true that everyone got together temporarily.
But you betray your teammates too quickly, right? You can just shout when you run!
"You..."
Laerte was choked and looked a little embarrassed, but he also knew that he was in the wrong.
Nonsense, in that situation, if you didn't run away, why would you stay and wait for death?
Is the champion Metagross the one he can touch?
But saying this made him even more cowardly, and in the end he just sighed, and together with Greninja fell into Synchronize's 100% silence.
Hoo ho ho!
Just when the two looked at each other unhappy, a low buzzing sound broke the dead silence.
A strange-looking aircraft landed in the open space.
The hatch slid open silently, and two people walked out.
The leader was a tall, middle-aged man with slightly sparse hair.
He was wearing a dark combat uniform, and there was a steady-breathing, shield-shaped sword monster floating next to him.
Following him was a short-haired woman who looked young.
Dressed in casual clothes, she even had a lollipop in her mouth, followed by a slightly lively Honedge, who looked like an ordinary girl out for an outing.
But Laert and Marilyn will never be fooled by this appearance.
Father and daughter Algais, father Algais and daughter Millis.
In the world of thieves, this pair is well-known for their neat methods and careful planning.
"Look who this is? Isn't it the famous ninja Lairt and the female snitch Mariling?"
"It seems like you two have encountered a little trouble?"
Millis pointed the candy stick at the two slightly embarrassed people.
Laerte and Mariling instantly entered a fighting state, their hands already pressed on Poké Ball.
Greninja also turned from static, lowered his body slightly, and made an assault posture.
"Argas, Millis... are you here for Dianxi too?"
Laert said in a deep voice.
The worst-case scenario has arisen. Not only are the competitors strong, but they are also money-making players.
Millis spread her hands. "What else? Is it for the scenery of this shabby place? Or are you here to pick up rags?"
Arghese's voice was rough. "Looking at you, you must have tasted the bitterness."
He spoke concisely and to the point, his eyes scanning the embarrassment of Mari Ling and Laerte, and the meaning was self-evident.
"Cut..."
Mari Ling snorted disdainfully.
This attitude is tantamount to acquiescing to the other party's guess.
Millis took a few steps forward, crossed her arms, and glanced at the two of them:
"People don't tell secrets. The guards around Diancie are now beyond the limit of what we can deal with."
"Hoenn's former champion, tournament champion, and the other two are not fuel-efficient either."
"With such people gathered together and Single Battle fighting alone, none of us would stand a chance."
Millis paused. "So, we need to cooperate. We have the same goal and we each get what we need."
Algais said, "After the matter is completed, Dianxi's value will be enough for us to share it equally among the three parties. How about it?"
Laerte and Marilyn glanced at each other subconsciously, and both saw the heartbeat in the other's eyes.
What this little girl said in the movie is right. Facing such a powerful guard force, cooperation seems to be the only option.
They have also heard about the strength and equipment of the Algais father and his daughter, especially those weapons that are beyond the ordinary, which may really be able to tear open the champion's defense.
Of course, their goals are not simple either.
Laerte's inner OS: "Cooperate? Share equally? Humph, that's a great idea! Once we get Dianxi, with the speed of me and Greninja, it won't be easy to find an opportunity to escape."
This is called the mantis stalking the cicada, with the oriole behind!
Mari Ling: "Both the father and daughter and that scumbag are not good people. If they cooperate, they will be seeking the skin of a tiger!"
"But when they both lose, and I try to fish in troubled waters, Diancie is destined to be mine!"
This is called the snipe and the clam fighting, and the fisherman wins!"
The drama in their minds could make a movie, but their faces quickly switched to sincere expressions.
"Tell me, how can we cooperate?"
Mari Ling has a hint of compromise and her acting skills are comparable to those of movie queens.
A genuine smile appeared on Millis's face, as if she had already Detect everything:
"It's very simple. First of all, do you know why Princess Diamond appears in this town? Is it really a coincidence?"
How the hell do I know that?
Mari Ling rolled her eyes, but still cooperated with Millis and said, "Maybe... it sneaked out on its own?"
"Nonono,"
Millis stretched out her index finger and shook it, with an expression like you are still too young:
"This is the most superficial idea. According to our investigation, with the current ability of this diamond princess, she is still unable to produce high-quality diamonds stably."
"What do you mean?"
Laerte frowned.
The Diamond Princess can't make diamonds? What's the difference between that and a mythical beast that can't fly? It's impossible!
"Don't worry, Brother Ninja."
Millis smiled and said, "I estimate that Diamond Princess's trip is to go to the forbidden land of the Eternal Forest to find the help of the legendary Xerneas and Xerneas to make up for its lack of ability."
"The Eternal Forest? That place where birds don't poop will have Xerneas?"
The two expressed deep doubts about this.
Although the Eternal Forest is mysterious, it is more synonymous with dangerous areas, which obviously does not match the temperament of the God of Life.
"I can't guarantee 100% whether Xerneas is here or not."
Millis changed the topic. "But I dare to swear on my father's hair that God Y will definitely be there!"
"Daughter, don't you dare say such nonsense."
Algais subconsciously touched his loose hair.
Fortunately, there is nothing less. Do you know how important hair is to a middle-aged man?
"God Y? God of destruction, Yveltal!"
Laert and Marilyn took a deep breath at the same time.
Compared to Xerneas's relatively positive reputation, God Y is a terrifying presence in Kalos that can make children stop crying.
According to rumors, wherever this old man wakes up, he basically bids farewell to the good times and walks away from natural disasters.
"How dare you two come into contact with God Y? Don't you want to live anymore?!"
Laerte's voice changed its tone.
Compared with the father and daughter, he felt like a new recruit.
"Hey, what are you talking about? We are just investigating and never touch them, okay?"
Millis waved her hand immediately.
Algais also added, "The God of Destruction, who cares to touch it? Is it too long to live?"
Not to mention that no employer would dare to accept that thing, even if it was given away for free, no one would want it.
This is a life-threatening charm, and whoever touches it will be unlucky.
"Oh, do you understand how to drive away wolves and devour tigers?"
Milis clasped her hands together. "According to the current combat strength Analytic, even if the four of us join forces, the chance of winning head-on is extremely low, so..."
"So you want to use God Y?!"
The two finally came to their senses and felt their hearts trembling. This plan was so crazy!
Algais said in a deep voice, "You don't need to worry about this, we have our own way."
"You only need to carry out Sucker Punch, bring Dianxi to the predetermined location, and leave the subsequent plans to us."
Laerte and Marilyn fell into silence again. Using the God of Destruction?
This is simply dancing on the edge of a knife, no, it is riding on the back of Kyogre Surf!
But when I think of Dianci's alluring, sparkling Illuminate pink diamond body...
Hiss... give it a try, Caterpie becomes Rayquaza!
Winning the Diamond Coast, losing going to the sea to film!
Done!
Captivate of interests finally defeated the fear of unknown dangers.
In the shadows, this fragile temporary thief Pokémon League, who has his own agenda, is formed.
