Chapter 1736 - 1730: The Threat from the Universe!

Chapter 1736: Chapter 1730: The Threat from the Universe!

Cain already knew all of this with absolute clarity thanks to Team Heaven and the intelligence organization left behind by the Sacred Church.

However, he did not interfere by force.

If he had not appeared, Steven would originally have been the Champion of the Hoenn region. Now, it could be considered that Cain was returning it to him.

Moreover, with that time, Cain preferred to invest more energy into improving his strength.

On the other hand, even if Steven truly became Champion, could his policies and orders be carried out without reservation?

During the year Cain held the position of Champion, it was not as if he had done nothing.

While he opened a convenient door of promotion for ordinary civilians, he also seized that opportunity to place his own people in various positions of the Hoenn League.

It could be said that, if Cain wanted it now, almost half of the Hoenn League could switch over to his hands.

This was a point that no one in the Hoenn League had imagined, and it was also Cain’s last hidden card.

...

The Pokémon League and many underground forces changed skies without anyone noticing.

But all of this did not cause too much agitation.

Time passed quickly under this abnormal calm.

Another year passed.

During this year, the position of Champion of the Hoenn region quietly passed from Champion Cain to the Steel-type Champion, Steven Stone.

As for why Champion Cain became Champion Steven, for many civilians, all of this was an unsolved mystery.

However, during this year, Steven, as Champion, greatly increased his fame and also did quite a few important things.

That caused Cain, the previous Champion, to gradually disappear from everyone’s sight.

Although currently there were still many people on the internet paying attention to Cain’s movements, compared with a year ago, there was no longer such a large scale.

This was precisely what the League hoped for: to reduce Cain’s presence and influence. They believed that, in at most one or two more years, they could obtain good results. By then, perhaps it would be the moment when the League would resolve this great hidden danger.

During this year, Cain basically almost never appeared.

Most of the time, he stayed on his Breeding Island, together with his Pokémon, improving their strength together and becoming stronger little by little.

A small part of the time, he appeared in the Heaven Castle, controlling the movements of the entire Team Rainbow Rocket, as well as the movements of the League.

After this year, Lusamine of the Aether Foundation had already accepted her fate. Moreover, during this year, Cain also found an opportunity to accept the challenge of N from Team Plasma, and successfully pulled him onto his own war chariot.

The underground forces of the Pokémon world, unexpectedly, united.

However, during this year, those underground forces were quite obedient under Cain’s orders and did not cause disturbances everywhere. That made the entire Pokémon world especially peaceful during this period.

...

Just today, another matter of enormous impact occurred.

A matter that could cause the destruction of the entire Pokémon world.

This morning.

The scientific team of Team Heaven in the Heaven Castle, headed by Alva, discovered an extremely enormous meteorite coming straight from the universe toward the planet where the Pokémon world was located.

The appearance of this meteorite was extremely sudden, giving the feeling of having caught everyone off guard.

Moreover, the speed of this meteorite was extremely high. According to Alva’s calculations, in less than two days, it would impact the Earth.

In Alva’s calculations, this meteorite not only had very high speed, but also an enormous size. Once it impacted the Earth, the consequences would be unimaginable.

The best scenario would be that it impacted a large region, causing that area to sink directly underground. All the people who were in that region would disappear together with that continental mass and be buried with it.

Due to the sinking of a large region, the sea level would rise, causing all low-altitude cities in the other regions to be swallowed. More than fifty percent of the humans and Pokémon in the world would lose their lives because of this catastrophe.

And that was already the best scenario.

But the probability of something like that was very low. The most likely thing was that, when the meteorite impacted the Earth, an enormous explosion would directly occur. The Earth would break apart, and the humans and Pokémon capable of surviving would not reach even one percent, and perhaps not even one in a thousand.

This was definitely an enormous catastrophe that could bring an impact to the entire Earth.

Because of the special location of the Heaven Castle, added to Cain’s special attention, the discovery could be considered relatively early.

But it was evident that the League had not noticed this point.

There were less than two days left before the meteorite fell. A method had to be thought of within those two days. Only in that way would there be a possibility of resolving this crisis.

Because of that, Cain had Alva use Team Heaven’s channels to immediately spread this news. At the same time, he sent it to the League’s responsible parties, so that they could also have knowledge of it and quickly think of a solution.

This was a moment that affected the entire Pokémon world, related to the survival of the entire world. It was not the time to focus on personal grudges. What was important was how to overcome this difficulty together.

After the League received the information from Team Heaven, it did not dare underestimate it at all and immediately organized scientific personnel to urgently confirm it.

The League had never paid too much attention to the universe, nor had it thought that danger could come from space. If not for Team Heaven’s warning, they probably would only have reacted when the meteorite could be seen with the naked eye. But by then, it would already be too late.

Even if they managed to destroy the meteorite, a large number of fragments would fall to the ground and cause large-scale natural disasters. That was a loss the League could not endure.

After spending half a day on urgent investigation and confirming the existence of the meteorite, the entire League entered a slight panic.

It was a disaster they had never faced before.

If the disaster appeared on land, even in the sea or in the sky, they would still have ways to come into contact with it. But this time, the crisis came from outer space, from the universe.

That was a field the entire Pokémon League had never touched.

If they could not even touch that meteorite, how could they resolve it?
