"Hello, are you hiring here?"
A young and beautiful girl in a super short miniskirt trotted to the workbench of Mammon and others and asked expectantly.
"Yes, could you please provide some basic information about yourself?"
Mammon smiled softly.
"That... 160, B89-W54-H80."
The girl in the miniskirt had a slightly red cheek and spoke in a very shy voice.
"?"
Mammon looked at the girl in a miniskirt with a ponytail with a puzzled look on his face.
Not sisters, are you...right?
And your measurements...
Mammon couldn't help but subconsciously look at the miniskirt. Are you sure it's not a false report?
However, Catlin, who was standing behind Mammon, suddenly had a look as cold as a glacier as she stared at the woman quietly.
Instead, it was Zinna who looked at the miniskirt in confusion. She didn't quite understand what the string of numbers the girl had just reported meant.
"Ahem~ Beautiful, that's not what I'm asking about. I'm asking about your trainer's information."
Mammon coughed dryly and expressed his opinion euphemistically.
"Oh, sorry, my name is Ellie." Miniskirt's face turned even redder.
"I'm a sophomore at Blueberry Academy, a member of the Alliance Club, currently ranked 43rd, and I specialize in Grass-type Pokémon."
Miniskirt quickly introduced her basic information.
"I see, then your strength should be quite good." Mammon raised his eyebrows. He was ranked 43rd in the Alliance Club, which made him an elite student in this school.
"Why do you want to join our company?"
That's right, Mammon is recruiting people right now, and he is recruiting people right here in Blueberry Academy, but he has already communicated with the senior management of Blueberry Academy.
After funding a portion of the funds, Mammon, who recruited talents under the name of the company, successfully established connections with the top management of the college.
"My family is not very wealthy. I heard that you pay here." Miniskirt touched her bangs embarrassedly.
"Of course, our company is happy to invest in outstanding trainers and provide them with a monthly salary. However, in return, you, Ellie, will also have to make some sacrifices."
Mammon replied with a smile.
"Since you haven't graduated yet, I can offer you a monthly salary of 5,000. I may occasionally contact you for missions. If you really can't spare the time, you can report in advance."
"Don't worry, the mission content won't be difficult. As long as you can complete the mission, you will get a certain amount of merit. Merit can be exchanged for money or other rare items, and even excellent Pokémon."
"If you agree, you can download our enterprise app and check it out at that time."
"What do you think?"
Mammon patiently introduced Ellie.
"I do!!" The girl in the miniskirt nodded vigorously, her pretty face full of excitement.
Oh my god! She's still a student, and she gets a fixed monthly salary of 5,000 yuan. 5,000 yuan can buy ten high-quality balls!
And she only needs to go on a few missions a month, and she can still go to school during the rest of the year. Isn't that great?
She was told her that she could get 2,000 yuan a month, but she got 5,000 yuan. It seems that it is related to her ranking in the alliance club.
After all, the ranking of the alliance is also related to strength. The higher the ranking, the stronger the strength.
"Here's the contract. Please sign it. Read it carefully. Once you sign, you'll be part of our company."
Mammon took a document and placed it on the table, smiling at Miniskirt.
Miniskirt picked up the contract and looked over it carefully.
"But don't worry, we're a conscientious company. After you graduate, you'll be fully employed, and your benefits will definitely be better."
"Yes! I will definitely work hard!"
After reading it and confirming that it was consistent with what Mammon said, Miniskirt signed the contract directly, full of energy and fighting spirit.
"Then you're welcome to join us, Miss Ellie."
"thank you!"
I also helped the miniskirt girl download the app, and she left happily, jumping all over the place.
Well, safety pants are really the most failed invention in human history!
"Then it will be your turn to take over, Li Zi."
After assigning the task of recruiting people to an elite subordinate who had followed him, Mammon stretched his body.
Kieran hadn't called him yet, but Mammon wasn't in a hurry.
"Huh? Mr. Mammon?!"
A sudden, surprised voice came from not far away.
Mammon turned around and saw the fresh and cheerful senior Lacey, who was looking at him happily.
"Ms. Lacey."
"Really, Mr. Mammon, how come you came to our academy?"
Lacey trotted over and asked in great surprise.
She thought she was seeing things, but it turned out to be Mammon. To be honest, she was really surprised.
"I founded a company and I need some trainers to help me, so I came to Blueberry Academy to see if I could recruit some people."
Mammon said to Lacey with a smile.
"Huh? What company still needs a trainer?" Lacey was stunned and a little surprised when he heard that.
Although this is a world themed around Pokémon, the trainer side and the life side are actually completely unrelated to each other, and can even be said to be clearly separated.
Silver, the company that pioneered the basic technology of the Poké Ball, is one of the world's leading companies in terms of both output and size. Is it rich? But that's just money.
Didn't Team Rocket easily take over the game? Even President Silver was captured.
Therefore, the life side and the trainer side can be said to be two different worlds. As for the order and balance in the middle, it is maintained by the Pokémon League.
Many employees in the company may have been trainers before, but after they started working, they basically said goodbye to their past career as trainers.
Just like the third generation of anime, what Mammon remembers more clearly is that May participated in a gorgeous competition in Kanto, and her final opponent was a corporate husband who had already started working.
Therefore, many people who did not make any achievements in their trainer career during their teenage years ended up going to work peacefully.
But this is completely different from going to work when you are a trainer.
The main reason is that not many companies will recruit trainers. After all, trainers have dreams or just like traveling.
What's the point of hiring such people? They are willing to be listed in the company, but they don't want to be paid after all!
"It's my personal vision, Miss Lacey. Do you know Team Plasma and the Hunter Organization?" Mammon thought for a moment and asked Lacey.
"Hmm..." Lacey tilted her head. Obviously, she only had a vague understanding of this. After all, she had always been well protected by Boss Clay.
"Team Plasma is a cult that advocates separating people from Pokémon, while the Hunters treat Pokémon as commodities to be sold, using machines to capture them and then selling them to collectors who are eager to collect them."
"Ah?" Lacey widened his eyes.
"So I founded this company, hoping to recruit like-minded people. If we find any signs of these evil organizations, we will eliminate them. Evil...will not be tolerated!"
Mammon's voice was deeper.
"Mr. Mammon!" Senior Lacey was very excited when she heard this. She didn't expect that such a young Mr. Mammon was already carrying out such a great cause.
"Please let me join! I want to help too!"
Lacey's tone was firm.
"Well...if there are missions sometimes, it might affect your studies, right?" Mammon pretended to be hesitant.
"It's okay! I joined Blueberry Academy to learn knowledge and become stronger, but if I can participate in the battle against the evil organization, I think I can also grow better!"
Senior Lacey spoke very seriously.
"Okay then, but Ms. Lacey should still focus on her studies."
Mammon hesitated for a while but finally agreed.
"Please rest assured, Mr. Mammon!" Senior Lacey was very motivated, even a little excited.
For a girl like her who has correct values, fighting against evil organizations is really a great thing!
"Then sign this contract. These matters are confidential. You cannot tell anyone else about the company's mission."
Mammon took out a contract and spoke to Lacey.
This is a complete surprise!
A talented girl like Lacey can be a very useful thug, although Lacey must not be allowed to know the true identity of the organization at the moment.
However, it is also very suitable to use her to fight against Team Plasma and Hunter Organization.
When the time comes, I will use both soft and hard tactics, and I won't be afraid that she won't join Team Rocket.
"Okay, eh? There's still a monthly salary to be collected?"
Lacey took the contract, looked at it, and spoke with some surprise.
"Of course, we are a formal company. However, Miss Lacey, you are still in school and cannot be considered a formal employee, so your monthly salary is not high."
"Mr. Mammon, I think this salary is already very high." Lacey looked at the 20,000 written on his contract and was adorably amazed.
Her family is relatively wealthy. After all, Boss Clay is a man with a lot of money to his name, but that doesn't mean Lacey doesn't know the normal salary.
Her salary is already very high. Many normal workers don't even have her monthly salary.
"For a trainer as cute and capable as Miss Lacey, I don't think this monthly salary is too much." Mammon replied with a smile.
"Hmm…"
Upon hearing this, Lacey's fair face turned slightly red. Mr. Mammon actually called her cute! !
"Mr. Mammon, are you hiring anyone else? I know a few outstanding students, and I think they would be happy to join!"
Lacey quickly came to his senses and spoke to Mammon.
"Of course you can." Mammon naturally wanted it very much.
And if Lacey could describe them like this, they must be Drayton's Elite Four of Blueberry Academy. They are indeed very good.
Mammon's mouth curled up slightly. This trip to Blueberry Academy was quite rewarding.
Next, have Proton Gladion send people to search Team Plasma's base and send all these students there to test their combat effectiveness first.
…
Evergrande City in the Hoenn region.
"Hello, Champion Alder."
"Champion Steven? I've heard a lot about you."
In Steven's office, Steven and Wallace sat side by side, and the person Steven contacted was Alder.
"Champion Alder, it's like this. I just heard our president mention it to me. Mammon went to Unova, right?"
Steven said to Alder.
"Yes, I'm ashamed to say that we don't have the strength to resist Team Rocket, so I'd like to ask for your help."
Alder's powerful voice sounded somewhat helpless and embarrassed.
After all, he is a trainer from the previous era, and among the current champions in various places, he is the oldest.
"Champion Alder, you're welcome. To be honest, if the opponent is Mammon, it really doesn't make much difference whether we're there or not."
Steven also sounded helpless.
The president of the Hoenn Alliance had just come to him and asked for his opinion when he learned about the situation.
It is no exaggeration to say that Steven did not want to go.
It's not that he's unwilling to help, nor that he has a psychological trauma against Mammon, but...
He's using his head to fight Mammon with Primal Kyogre?
What's more, the most important thing is, Mammon, who is holding Primal Kyogre, can't fight Mammon with the Sea of Origin as long as he can't restrain Primal Kyogre?
How much awareness and price does that require?
If he were in Steven's position, he wouldn't be able to make such a decision, because that's the entire regional continent!
"Champion Steven, what do you mean?" Alder was stunned when he heard this. He didn't quite understand.
"Champion Alder, as you know, I also invited several champions including Cynthia Leon to help fight Team Rocket a while ago, but the final result was not satisfactory. I'm not afraid of you laughing at me, but in fact, all of us combined are no match for Mammon."
"Is...that Mammon so strong??"
Alder was shocked.
"Yes, he captured Primal Kyogre. Primal Kyogre's combat power is very strong, but it's not just that. Champion of Alder, Primal Kyogre's characteristic, the Sea of Origin, is the most crucial."
Steven explained to Alder in a deep voice.
Steven then gave a detailed introduction to the situation they were facing in Hoenn at the time and the power of the Sea of Origin.
"Heavy rain that will flood the continent..."
Alder in the Vertress City Alliance Building felt a sudden pang of anxiety in his heart, and his face looked extremely heavy.
this...
In this case, there is no way to deal with Mammon, right? Because Mammon has the bargaining chip of "mutual destruction"!
How can we fight Team Rocket? If we don't sacrifice the entire region, won't we just let Mammon run amok?
"Is there no other way?"
Alder's voice was a little hoarse.
"That's not necessarily true. Mammon doesn't seem like such a cruel person. He has ambitions, but unless he's pushed into a desperate situation, I don't think he'll allow Primal Kyogre to expand the Sea of Origin without restraint and retaliate against society."
Steven pondered for a moment, then expressed his thoughts to Alder.
This was indeed his true thought. He carefully recalled his many encounters with Mammon. Although Mammon did act very arrogantly, he did not seem like a villain who would commit a massacre.
"Is that really the case?" Alder was still a little worried.
"Of course, Champion Alder, we can guarantee that no one knows Mammon better than we do!"
Master Wallace responded with such confidence.
Steven's mouth twitched and he glanced at Wallace. How dare this guy say such a thing?
"Anyway, I'm just going to tell you, Champion Alder, the information I already know. As for how to deal with Team Rocket, the decision is still up to you."
"If you need help, Wallace and I would be happy to help."
Steven spoke to Alder sincerely. After all, he had received assistance from Cynthia and others not long ago.
"Then please ask Champion Steven and the others to come to Unova. The situation here... is actually much more complicated than you think."
"Okay, we'll be in Vertress City tomorrow." Steven agreed.
"I will pick you up myself."
Alder calmed down and said that after learning more detailed information about Mammon, he was actually under greater pressure at the moment.
Team Plasma, Team Rocket, Zekrom, Primal Kyogre...
Alder rubbed his brows weakly, feeling a deep sense of fatigue from the bottom of his heart.
Why?
Why should they all suffer this kind of punishment?
