"Heavenly King Li Hua!" Aoki and Daigo simultaneously nodded at Li Hua.
Li Hua was a good-looking girl who preferred a non-mainstream style. Aoki and Daigo had known each other since the Divine Mystery Tournament.
Although they didn't interact much, they did speak a few times. Meeting again wasn't that strange and awkward.
"It's really a surprise to meet you guys here. At first, I thought it was a battle between some powerful wild elves." Li Hua patted her chest and made a relieved expression.
Aoki and Daigo looked at each other.
With their tacit understanding, they only needed a glance to understand each other's meaning.
Daigo's meaning was simple. He was the leader of their team. No matter if it was him or the Hibiscus Chinensis, they didn't have any objections. Even without Adams' instructions, Aoki was still the leader by default. When the four of them were together, Aoki was usually the one who made the decisions.
Of course, this was also because Aoki would consider Daigo and the other two's opinions when making decisions.
From the time they met until now, Aoki had never disappointed them. Moreover, every decision he made was beneficial to them.
"How is it? Did you gain anything during this period of time? "Aoki asked with a smile.
Hearing Aoki's words, Li Hua's white cheeks blushed slightly. She scratched her head shyly and said, "You guys should know what my strength is like. Being able to become one of the Four Heavenly Kings is completely beyond my ability. The wild elves here are too high level. I don't dare to run around. Haven't I just stayed at the place where I was stationed for two weeks?
I only dared to come out and take a look after becoming more familiar with this place. Previously, when I heard the sounds of battle, I ran over. I didn't expect it to be the two of you. "
There was a saying, 'meeting an old friend in a foreign land'. To be able to meet Aoki and Daigo in such a dangerous environment was an unexpected surprise for her.
Aoki nodded. Li Hua's strength was probably the weakest among the Four Heavenly Kings of the city. However, she had a clear understanding of her own position. She knew that in this dangerous environment, without a champion level sprite, it would be very dangerous to run around randomly.
"Don't belittle yourself. Your potential is obvious to all. In our generation, your talent is definitely one of the top. It's just that you haven't met the right opportunity." Aoki comforted her.
Who could become one of the Four Heavenly Kings was simple?
Although Li Hua was temporarily at the bottom of the Four Heavenly Kings, that was because the strength of the newly appeared Bai Ling was unknown. Yishu, who was originally about the same as Li Hua, had encountered some special opportunity and overtaken her at a bend, leaving Li Hua behind. Even if Li Hua had the evil element's natural restraint against superpowers, she was still not Yishu's opponent.
In addition, there was Ah Ju, who was a member of the Rocket Team and had been plotting for the position of the Four Heavenly Kings for a long time.
It could only be said that the Alliance of the Metropolis had really chosen a group of outstanding talents. In this place, there were all sorts of people.
Hearing Aoki's comforting words, Li Hua only smiled politely.
She knew her own capabilities. If it was during the Divine Mystery Tournament, she still had some confidence that she could exchange a few blows with Aoki. Now, she was really helpless.
Even the strongest of the Four Heavenly Kings, Ah Ju, had to go easy on Aoki in order to not lose so badly. Moreover, this was under the condition that Aoki did not summon his ace sprite.
Li Hua really had no idea what level Aoki's strength had reached.
"Oh right, what's the identity of Bai Ling in the Metropolis? Why haven't I heard of her before?" Aoki asked.
Aoki was really afraid of Bai Ling. Sometimes, the more unknown the enemy was, the more uneasy he felt.
Aoki had always hoped that everything would be under his control. Even if he couldn't control everything completely, he would at least understand it to a certain extent, whether it was forces like the Rocket Team, the Lava Team, or the Ocean Team. But now, a Divine Sect had appeared, and so many powerful messengers had appeared. On top of that, there was the BaiLing. It was hard for him not to think in this direction.
Actually, Aoki was not the only one who was curious about Bai Ling's identity. At least, at this moment, Daigo, who was standing beside Aoki, was also very interested in Bai Ling's identity.
If they were in the Elf World, with Aoki and Daigo's current identities, they would only need to spend some time to find out Bai Ling's identity and origin. However, they did not have that much time. It would not be easy for them to obtain any useful information after entering the Metropolis.
Li Hua revealed a thoughtful expression. "Actually, I don't know much about her identity. However, I heard that before the Metropolis Alliance was established, they had already found her. I heard that she is a singer in the dance club in Yuanzhu City. Or perhaps she used to be a singer. Now, she might be in charge of the singers. Who knows?"
Yuanzhu City? Singer?
Aoki's heart skipped a beat. It seemed that Li Hua did not know much about Bai Ling. However, how could a singer become one of the Metropolis Four Heavenly Kings?
To be honest, he did not really understand the Metropolis Alliance's thoughts and brain circuits.
However, the higher-ups of the Metropolis Alliance were once the higher-ups of the entire Guandu Alliance. They were definitely not stupid. If they could let go of Bai Ling's identity and allow her to become one of the Metropolis Four Heavenly Kings, there must be something special about her.
Aoki felt that the most likely reason was that Bai Ling was so powerful that they could ignore her background.
The more he thought about it, the more he felt that it was possible. Otherwise, the other three people chosen by the Metropolis Alliance had reached the standard of the Four Heavenly Kings. However, none of them were able to become the number one Heavenly King with overwhelming strength like Ju Zi and Genji.
Perhaps they had chosen one, and Bai Ling was their trump card. However, she did not make a move during the exhibition match that day. Therefore, everyone knew very little about her.
However, the more this was the case, the more Aoki was suspicious of Bai Ling.
How could a singer have such strength?
Not everyone was like him and had such a powerful cheat like the A.I. Chip. A singer's income was indeed much higher than an ordinary person's, but that was all there was to it. Unless the other party was a child of destiny like Xiaozhi, it was hard not to be suspicious of someone who could become one of the Four Heavenly Kings.
The credibility of the Metropolis Alliance's investigation of a person's identity was pitifully low. For example, Aoki's information was protected by the Rocket Team. Unless the Metropolis Alliance's internal information was turned upside down, no one would be able to find any clues about Aoki's identity.
It was the same for the commander of the Metropolis Alliance's second legion and the Black Emissary of the Church of God.
Those who understood the Metropolis Alliance better, or rather, those who had walked out of the Metropolis Alliance, could avoid the Alliance's investigation of a person to a certain extent. Of course, the price for doing so was higher, and the requirements for oneself were also higher.
Currently, Aoki knew that the deepest infiltration of the Metropolis Alliance was by the commander of the second legion, Black Emissary, and one of the Metropolis Four Heavenly Kings, Poison Sky Orange.
"Alright, thank you for telling us this information. Take these things as repayment, I believe you will be able to use them.
However, we still have things to do, so we won't delay your training. " After saying that, Aoki took out some special healing potions and some special energy cubes that could speed up one's recovery from his storage space.
Seeing the things that Aoki took out, Li Hua revealed a pleasantly surprised expression. Just a piece of information that was of no importance to her could be exchanged for so many things. This made her feel as if she had been smashed on the head by a huge biscuit.
"Thank you!" Li Hua thanked him profusely without any intention of declining.
Anyone who used Aoki's things would know. Moreover, in this place, these things were indeed more precious than many other resources.
After saying that, Aoki and Daigo once again moved forward, while Li Hua prepared to move in another direction. That was the direction that they had agreed to meet in the Metropolis.
"Oh right, Li Hua, if you encounter any trouble in the future, you can wait for us here. We should be back here sooner or later. However, don't tell anyone about this place for now." Before the Berserk Dragon flapped its wings again, Aoki said to Li Hua.
After saying that, Li Hua was left behind a confused Li Hua as she stared blankly at Aoki and Daigo disappearing into the distance.
"Since you chose to tell her where you wanted to meet, why didn't you directly ask her to join us?" After the two really left, Daigo asked suspiciously.
Aoki squinted his eyes, "Because I still can't guarantee her identity. If we bring her along, it's the same as telling the other party our location. It's too dangerous."
After pausing for a moment, he continued, "But if there's no problem with her identity, then there's a high possibility that she will be attacked. If we can successfully escape, then we can bring her along. Moreover, this place that I mentioned, by the time we return, at least it will be after everything is clear.
This way, the initiative will be in our hands. At least, we won't be suddenly attacked. "
Hearing Aoki's explanation, Daigo nodded thoughtfully. It seemed like Aoki was right. Other than those people that he knew, the rest were all on his list of suspects.
It must be said that in this kind of situation, it was indeed necessary to be careful.
At the same time, Daigo felt that Aoki was right to be the team leader.
After encountering Li Hua, Aoki and Daigo consciously sped up. In the afternoon, they finally arrived not far from the third marked point, a special sand dune standing in the desert.
In the desert environment, the wind and sand were rampant, and visibility was very low. Moreover, because of the flexibility of the sand, it was difficult for Aoki and Daigo to leave a mark here. Even if Hibiscus Chinensis and Miceli were here, it would be difficult for them to leave a mark.
Originally, this place was not within the range that Aoki and Li Hua had marked.
After all, this kind of place was really not very friendly to others, especially water elemental sprite trainers like Miceli.
However, the range of this desert was too large. If they skipped it, it would cause the selected location to be uneven, increasing the difficulty of Aoki and Li Hua's meeting.
Hence, they chose this place in the end.
"Even I, who likes to use steel elemental sprites, don't like this wind and sand very much." Daigo's little suit at this time was special. The collar was particularly high and upright. The outer layer of this collar was wrapped in special metal, which could withstand the impact of the wind and sand very well.
The Giant Pincer Mantis beside him kept making "ding ding ding" sounds under the impact of the wind and sand.
Compared to Daigo's nouveau riche way of resisting the wind and sand, Aoki's method was much simpler. He directly wrapped himself with his superpower.
Of course, Aoki did not wrap Daigo together.
In his words, it was to train Daigo's resistance to the harsh environment.
Therefore, after entering the desert area, Daigo looked at Aoki with a very resentful gaze, the kind that was full of hidden bitterness.
However, in fact, Daigo also comforted himself in his heart. Aoki did not want to waste too much superpower and had to remain vigilant of the surroundings.
Sure enough, when Daigo thought so and comforted himself, Aoki's face suddenly changed!
Aoki stared at the yellow sand in front of him with a serious expression. Although he could not see what it was, his superpower could indeed perceive many things that the naked eye could not see.
"What's wrong?" Daigo asked when he saw Aoki's expression change.
Aoki's expression remained unchanged and even became more and more solemn. "What a strong spatial energy fluctuation. I don't know what it is that can mobilize such powerful spatial energy in this space-locked continent."
Although Dawu didn't know what was going on, he also felt a little pressured by the fact that Aoki, who had always been known for his calmness, had such a serious attitude.
However, immediately after, Aoki's expression changed again. Originally, it was only solemn, but now, it was filled with shock as his eyes widened.
"The space has split open! Quick! Daigo! " Aoki did not have time to explain anything. He jumped onto the back of the Berserk Wyvern and rushed in the direction his superpower sensed.
Daigo's expression also changed abruptly. He put away the Elfin, jumped onto the Fossilized Pterosaur and rushed quickly. At this time, he could no longer care about the wind and sand.
The superpower in Aoki's eyes surged. The scene he sensed with his superpower seemed to be presented in front of his eyes.
In the middle of the vast yellow sand, a black crack suddenly appeared. Around this crack, small black energy ripples jumped like lightning. This crack was also rapidly expanding with the help of these energy ripples.
Under this spatial crack, there were two people. One was standing, while the other was sitting on the ground with his legs crossed. He was fiddling with his fingers as if everything had nothing to do with him.
The Berserk Wyvern and the Fossilized Pterosaur flapped their wings with all their might, carrying Aoki and Daigo across the yellow sand.
Aoki's expression was not as shocked as before, but the solemn expression on his face did not weaken at all.
Daigo's Fossilized Pterosaur flew beside Aoki's Berserk Wyvern. He wanted to ask something, but he could not open his mouth. He knew that if he opened his mouth, at this speed, his mouth would definitely be filled with sand as soon as he opened his mouth.
Aoki glanced at Daigo and knew that he was uncomfortable. His heart moved slightly, and he connected with him telepathically.
"Two minutes. Two people. Their strength is unknown. They are creating spatial cracks. They might want to send something in. When the time comes, each of us will deal with one of them as soon as possible. Then, destroy the device!" Aoki said to Daigo.
Daigo nodded. Although he knew that what Aoki said might be serious, he was slightly excited and looked forward to fighting with a powerful trainer.
"Whoosh —"
Without any intention of hiding, the Berserk Wyvern and the Fossilized Pterosaur arrived at their destination.
The two people who were originally there did not seem to be surprised that someone would appear. Even the middle-aged man who was sitting on the ground and looked bored showed an interested smile on his face.
The person who was originally standing gave up on controlling the device and slowly turned around, revealing her expressionless face. It was as if she was wearing a mask.
If this face did not look so delicate and there was a hint of redness under the fair skin, it would probably be mistaken as a mask.
This woman was wearing a white dress.
"It's really you! The new Four Heavenly Kings of the city, the Steel Heavenly King! BaiLing! " Aoki jumped down from the Berserk Wyvern's back. Without any hesitation, he threw out two pokeballs. The two signature tonnage sprites, Bosco Dora and Banjira, appeared in front of Aoki.
Daigo did not hesitate either. He also threw out two pokeballs. Shiny Giant Gold Monster! Bosco Dora! It was also his representative sprite.
BaiLing's expression did not change when Aoki called out her name. However, the middle-aged man who was slowly standing up looked more and more excited. His black eyes scanned Aoki and Daigo's sprites as if he was looking at which of the four sprites was more in line with his aesthetic.
"Sandstorm Heavenly King, Aoki.
Devon Company's Young Master, Zivoqi, Daigo. It's really you guys. I also guessed that you guys would be able to find this place. " BaiLing said calmly. Her tone was as if she was having afternoon tea with Aoki and Daigo.
"Hehehehehe — So the people who came are all so famous? It seems that many talented young people have appeared in the Alliance while I was away. "The middle-aged man on the side laughed strangely as if he had seen his prey.
He even stuck out his tongue and licked his dry lips. He was very tempted.
Hearing this middle-aged man's words, Aoki guessed his identity. He had entered this place a long time ago and chose to stay. He was a member of the Church of God!
"Do you have your eyes on anyone? These two are both handsome! "The middle-aged man looked at BaiLing with a teasing expression.
However, BaiLing seemed to turn a blind eye to his words and said calmly, "You choose."
Hearing this, the middle-aged man pouted but did not say anything. He knew that BaiLing was the real person in charge of the Church of God. She was the most popular person in front of the Bishop. The legendary White Messenger was her.
"If that's the case! Then it's you! Pretty boy! Remember, my name is Jockley. If you've heard of it before … "Jockley looked at Aoki and said arrogantly. He had his eyes on Aoki's Banjira and Bosco Dora.
"Never heard of it!" Aoki said calmly. Although his voice was not loud, they could hear it clearly.
Jockley? Chocolate? What kind of name was that?
In an instant, such a disrespectful way of speaking made Jockley's face, which was full of smiles, stiffen.
However, since he had made his choice, BaiLing did not waste any more words. She looked at Daigo and threw out two Pokeballs.
Gigantic Gold Monster! Bosco Dora!
They were the same sprites and stood in the same way. The only difference was that BaiLing's Gigantic Gold Monster was not a special Flash Sprite.
"Yayayaya — Two people using Steel Sprites. How boring is that, isn't it? The bad-tempered … Sandstorm Heavenly King, Aoki? "Jockley's words were always sarcastic.
Perhaps it was because he had been here for a long time, which was about twenty-five years, so this person's mentality was a little twisted and perverted.
However, while he was talking, his hands did not stop moving. Two sprites were summoned.
After two flashes of red light, a Gemenaya and an Earthen Tortoise were summoned.
As soon as these two sprites appeared, Aoki felt that even the yellow sand in the surrounding desert became much smaller. It was as if the sand did not dare to come close because of these two sprites.
Aoki narrowed his eyes. Grass Sprites.
This was very disadvantageous for a trainer like him who used Banjira as his core!
Moreover, sprites like Gemenaya were cacti. They were sprites that lived in the desert. This was equivalent to their home ground. Of course, they would not be afraid of sand.
Little Sprite: Gemenaya (Light Blue)
Gender: Male
Level: 84
Attributes: Grass + Evil
Special Characteristics: Sand Invisibility
Portable Items: None
Inherited Skills: Dissolving Liquid, Magic Leaf, Seed Bomb, Burp

It was a Gomenaya with the Sand Invisibility attribute. This Gomenaya was simply made for this place, and it was enough to put Greenwood in a very passive position.
Sand Invisibility Trait: When in a sandstorm, the sprite's evasion rate will increase and its body will become more agile. At the same time, the continuous damage of the sandstorm will have no effect on sprites with this trait.
The other sprite, Terra Tortoise!
Little Sprite: Terra Tortoise! (Light Blue)
Gender: Male
Level: 84
Attributes: Grass + Earth
Trait: Lush
Portable Items: None
Inherited Skills: Grow, Mount Tai Crush, Sacrificial Tackle, Earth's Strength

The Terra Tortoise with the Grass and Earth attributes would also not be damaged in the sandstorm. However, it did not have the Gemenaya's evasion bonus.
However, just being immune to the sandstorm's attack directly reduced Aoki's advantage to the minimum.
Therefore, this Jockley only looked sloppy and did not take anyone seriously. He looked as if he was the only one who could do it.
However, this person was actually a person who looked rough on the surface but was actually a meticulous person. After hearing the title of Aoki's Four Heavenly Kings from BaiLing and seeing Aoki's Banjira, he made this choice.
The Grass Sprite was very effective against the Rock Sprite.
Moreover, these were two Level 84 Grass Elves. They were only one step away from the first checkpoint of the champion level.
The important thing was that Takeshi Aoki did not know if these two sprites were the ace sprites.
As for the fact that Banjira's sandstorm was restrained, Aoki was actually not very worried.
Since the other party had chosen to open a spatial rift here, he must have made preparations.
BaiLing's Steel Sprite did not have to worry about the sandstorm, and Jockley's special Grass Sprite did not have to worry about the sandstorm's impact on them either.
Aoki did not dare to summon his sprites for the time being because he did not know if his summoning of his sprites would cause the other party to react and summon more sprites.
This Jockley was different from Brad. He had a large number of Pokeballs tied to his belt. The two Pokeballs that he had thrown out were only two of his many sprites.
As someone who had lived here for 25 years, he was like a proud son of heaven in the Alliance. Moreover, he was different from Brad. He should be able to use much more resources than Brad.
Therefore, Aoki felt that he definitely had an ace sprite.
However, Aoki was not worried that he would be too powerful. What kind of person would have so many sprites on him?
One was that he was rich in resources and had extra resources to nurture extra sprites. Moreover, the combination of the sprites required him to bring so many sprites, just like Aoki.
The other was that it was difficult for a single sprite to break through the upper limit. If he wanted to increase his strength, he could only rely on increasing the number of sprites.
Aoki guessed that it should be the latter.
It was true that this place was rich in resources. Not only were there rich in materials, but there were also rich in sprites.
However, the resources were not as rich as one would imagine. This was because sprites with high aptitude were really rare among wild sprites. Moreover, not everyone was like Aoki, who had a special cultivation method that could improve the aptitude of a sprite during the cultivation process.
It was also very common for some people to not understand a type of sprite well enough, resulting in the lowered aptitude of the sprite that was cultivated.
Therefore, before anyone wanted to become a trainer, they had to undergo special training. At the very least, they had to have a preliminary understanding of a few common sprites. However, this was only a preliminary understanding.
To cultivate any type of sprite, one had to have a sufficient understanding of this type of sprite.
This was why it was difficult for civilian trainers to become powerful trainers.
With Jockley's light blue aptitude sprites, without a special training method, reaching this stage was already the limit.
Therefore, Aoki guessed that the second possibility was more likely.
The other party did not give him too much time to think. Just like how Aoki was preparing to test him, the other party was also preparing to test Aoki's bottom line. He did not summon any more sprites.
"Gomenaya, Take Root! Earthen Tortoise, Flying Leaf Blade! "Jokley ordered the two sprites. He immediately commanded the two sprites to attack.
Aoki's eyes flashed with superpower. Telepathy also commanded the two sprites to move.
Banjira had just broken through to champion level not long ago. Bosco Dora had not even broken through to champion level.
Therefore, Aoki was at an absolute disadvantage. He could not take the other party's skills head-on.
Originally, because of the appearance of these two grass-type sprites, the sandstorm in the desert had become much smaller. However, under Banjira's intentional control, the sandstorm flew up again. It was much stronger than before.
However, the device that could be destroyed by Banjira's sandstorm had been improved this time. There were no changes.
The whistling giant Flying Leaf Blade was thrown out from the Earthen Tortoise's back. Before it could attack Banjira and Bosco Dora, it was successfully blocked by Banjira's sand shield and the shield formed by Bosco Dora's sharp stone attack.
This trial attack did not have any effect. However, Banjira's sandstorm became stronger and stronger.
On the other side, the battle between BaiLing and Daigo had also begun.
As if on purpose, BaiLing and Jokley intentionally wanted to separate Aoki and Daigo. They wanted to attack them separately.
However, after a simple test, what followed was a fierce attack.
Banjira was the main force and Bosco Dora was the support!
Under Banjira's control, the sandstorm enveloped Aoki and Jokley. It was as if an airtight sand cover had covered the already low visibility of the sandstorm.
Slowly, the color of the sand changed. However, the speed of the change was relatively slow. It was difficult for Banjira to use the red sand in his normal state.
The opponent was still attacking Banjira and Bosco Dora with energy balls. This forced the red sand, which was not easy to create, to be used for defense before it could form.
However, although the crimson sand had yet to take shape, the sand barrier had taken shape. There was nothing for Greenwood to hide.
In a situation where the opponent had an advantage in attributes, levels, and even characteristics, if Aoki did not take any measures, he would really die a slow death.
"Super evolution! Banjira! Bosco Dora! "Aoki shouted in a low voice.
He directly used a double super evolution!
Although this could not bring about a qualitative change for Banjira and allow him to break through the first checkpoint of the champion level, it could allow Bosco Dora's strength to temporarily break through to the champion level. This way, Bosco Dora would no longer be a burden and Banjira's red sand could finally truly appear at this time.
Super Banjira!
Super Bosco Dora!
"Ban-"
"Kua-"
"Oh? This special evolution is very similar to the Church's divine power infusion that Bai Ling mentioned. However, it looks a little different. Is this your trump card? Not bad! "Jokley's eyes lit up when he saw Super Banjira and Super Bosco Dora.
Following Super Banjira's long roar, red sand crazily drilled out from the ground and merged into the yellow sand that filled the sky.
The red sand seemed to be contagious as the yellow sand was quickly devoured by the red sand.
In just a few breaths, all the sand had turned red.
This was not only a change in color but also a change in temperature.
Aoki Banjira's special ability, Sandstorm Domain's Red Sand Domain, reappeared!
