In the early morning, Alex suddenly heard an explosion from the recruit dormitory. He woke up immediately, put on his Team Rocket member uniform, took Zubat Pokéball, and left his room.

Thick smoke began to emerge from the recruits’ dormitory where the explosion occurred, and the flames spread quickly to the surrounding dormitories. The dormitory where Alex is located was also affected. ​​

After hearing the explosion in the dormitory building, Alex also stopped in his place immediately, lifted the head, and looked at the floor where the smoke was rising. He discovered that the dormitory where the explosion had occurred was his dormitory building. Alex immediately thought of the Pokémon Koffing and felt a bit sad and sympathetic for such an unnecessary death.

Alex couldn’t help but pray, “Rest in peace.”

When a Pokémon uses the move Explosion, it becomes unconscious and suffers serious injuries. If not treated in time, it can never wake up again.

That’s why Pokémon rarely use Explosion, but Koffing has a bad personality. Don’t look at his stupid expression, Koffing can easily be provoked. Of course, even when Koffing is provoked, Koffing rarely uses a move like Explosion.

From the explosion, the flames and smoke spread quickly to the surrounding dormitories.

In a short time, many rookies still in the dormitory rushed down from the dormitory, trying to run faster than ever. Each and everyone had an expression of anxiety on their faces. At the same time, some Team Rocket soldiers also rushed to the fire scene to put out the fire with Water-type Pokémon.

The fire was quickly brought under control with the help of many Water-type Pokémon and then quickly extinguished. The fire was easily suppressed, and then these Team Rocket soldiers left the fire scene one after another.

Team Rocket soldiers went into the room with the explosion and came out with several black plastic bags. The rookies who saw them all had a shocked expression on their faces.

Lisa shouted furiously, “Hey, you idiots! Why do you want to conquer Pokémon in your room? It is much safer to do it on public training grounds. When an emergency occurs, others can help save your life.”

Lisa was frustrated. She thought, “Great! My group ‘had’ such an idiot. This is gonna look bad in my report. And the lucky idiot didn’t survive, so I have nowhere to use my frustration. Now I can only hope that one of these rookies wins the boss tournament, although the odds are minimal.”

At the same time, behind this sadness and sympathy, Alex’s desire for strength had strengthened even more. The fact that life is so fragile was right in front of him. If you want to live, you can only make yourself stronger.

When the fire ended, the recruit dormitory was not affected at all. Except, one-room was unusable now.

Alex shook off this experience and headed for the public dining hall.

A public dining hall is where all Team Rocket members can get free meals 3 times a day.

But if you want better food you have to spend TR Points. Of course, no rookie was willing to spend his TR points on such luxury. You have to consider that the rookies have to conquer their Pokémon in 7 days and then even train it for the tournament. Who has money to waste?

Alex went to the counter where food costs money and got himself a delicious menu for 5 TR points. Although Alex needs money too, he has already captured his Pokémon and bought all the training items. That’s why Alex has no problem spending a little money on a luxury.

When Alex wanted to find a free table, Lars called Alex over to his table. He went to Lars’s table and talked to Lars about various things. Lars told him that he was the 3rd fastest rookie to conquer Pokémon. He received 500 TR points as a reward and bought good training items with it. Alex asked him if he knows trainers who have a Zubat and enough money. He also says that for every customer he introduces, he will give Lars 100 TR points. Lars had thought about doing business without Alex but decided against it. Although Lars is arrogant, he knows what gratitude is.

Also, how would Alex react if he knew that he had stolen his idea?

After dinner, Lars and Alex went to the rookies’ rooms with their Zubat. Although most rookies had not yet conquered their Pokémon, many had run out of money. These rookies begged Alex to help them anyway. Alex always replied, “I sympathize with what happened to you, but I am very sorry. I am just a recruit that was just promoted to a member. If you want to get help, you must pay a price. Don’t you already know it very well, why did you beg me to help you?”

Alex and Lars only found 3 rookies who had enough money and had a Zubat. One of them wanted to try it alone, the other two paid 300 TR points for the help. In the end, Alex had earned 400 TR points within an hour. Lars was also happy to get 200 TR points for little work. Alex said goodbye to Lars and headed for the public training grounds.
