Shi Yi didn't hesitate.
He directly chose to view the purple opportunity.
【Name: Zhang Yan】
【Recent Opportunity: Purple Opportunity】
【Details: As a member of the Elf Hunter Guild, Zhang Yan took on an A-rank mission.
Go to the Desert Sanctuary and capture a special-colored Great Jaw Ant.
Once successfully captured and the mission is submitted, a generous reward can be obtained.
After entering the Desert Sanctuary, Zhang Yan began searching for the Great Jaw Ant colony.
After finding the Great Jaw Ant colony, Zhang Yan launched a fierce attack on the group, solely to find the special-colored Great Jaw Ant.
After a battle, Zhang Yan found the Great Jaw Ant, captured it, completed the mission, and received a generous reward.
Upon seeing the purple opportunity of this "Elf Hunter" in front of him.
Shi Yi's thoughts stirred slightly, pondering for a moment.
Suddenly, he grasped two pieces of information.
One, in the Desert Sanctuary, among the Great Jaw Ant colony in front of him, there was a differently colored Great Jaw Ant... also known as the Shiny Pokémon.
Two, Zhang Yan in front of him was a member of the Elf Hunter Guild. Shi Yi had only heard about the Elf Hunter Guild but hadn't delved into its details.
"I never thought that members of the Elf Hunter Guild would dare to appear so blatantly in the Desert Sanctuary, and even attack the Great Jaw Ant colony in such a grand way."
"Could it be that the Alliance doesn't intervene in the Elf Hunter Guild?"
Thinking about this.
A novel idea suddenly arose in Shi Yi's mind.
Since... the members of the Elf Hunter Guild all go to execute bounty missions.
Then, are these bounty missions all different colored opportunities?
After all.
Once a mission is completed, a generous reward can be obtained.
Like this mission in front of him, it's to find a differently colored... or Shiny Great Jaw Ant.
This itself is a kind of adventure, a kind of opportunity.
"Whoa! If I can join the Elf Hunter Guild, wouldn't I be able to snatch up all sorts of opportunities every day?"
Thinking about this.
Shi Yi's eyes lit up, this seemed like a clear path.
Shi Yi once again picked up his binoculars and looked towards the distant battle.
Zhang Yan's Pokémon was a Super Armor Rhino, which looked very fierce.
Dealing with this group of Great Jaw Ants was a piece of cake.
Shi Yi used his Appraisal Eyes to examine the information about this Super Armor Rhino.
【Pokémon: Super Armor Rhino (♂)】
【Level: 50 (Senior Peak)】
【Type: Ground, Rock】
【Ability: Lightning Rod (Attracts electric-type moves to oneself, taking no damage, but instead increasing special attack.)】

【Skills: Arm Hammer, Aerial Ace, Stomp, Horn Attack, Rock Blast, Scary Face, Rock Tomb, Drill Run, Take Down, Earthquake, Dig, Rock Slide...】
【Held Item: Hard Stone (Common Quality)】
【Potential: Gym Level】
……
"Damn, what a strong Super Armor Rhino…"
Shi Yi removed his binoculars, his mouth twitching slightly.
No wonder this guy could recklessly attack this group of Great Jaw Ants.
Even if this group of Great Jaw Ants attacked together, they wouldn't be able to defeat this Super Armor Rhino.
Shi Yi scratched his head, feeling a strange sense of unease.
If this guy's strength wasn't very good, he could have ambushed him... or defeated him and then snatched his opportunity.
That is, capture that Shiny Great Jaw Ant.
But this guy's strength is so strong...
And he probably doesn't just have this one Super Armor Rhino.
A trainer who can cultivate a Super Armor Rhino can't possibly only have one Pokémon, right?
Even if he has a whole team (6 Pokémon), it's quite likely.
Then.
Shi Yi has no chance of winning against this bounty hunter named Zhang Yan.
He'll only have the Mind Power Clay Doll use Instantaneous Movement to escape.
"What should I do?"
Shi Yi's brain raced, he had to get this purple opportunity!
Suddenly.
Shi Yi looked down at the Sand Worm Python at his feet.
Suddenly, a flash of inspiration, as if he had thought of a way.
Great Jaw Ants are a kind of Pokémon that like to burrow underground... they travel by digging tunnels.
It can be said that the underground is their hiding place.
Right now, Zhang Yan is having the Super Armor Rhino continuously attack the Great Jaw Ants on the ground, but he's only attacking some ordinary Great Jaw Ants.
The Shiny Great Jaw Ant hasn't appeared.
In addition, the prompt I saw on the data panel.
It was after a battle that he found the Shiny Great Jaw Ant.
This means... the Shiny Great Jaw Ant is still underground and hasn't emerged yet.
If.
Shi Yi uses the Sand Worm Python's digging ability to capture the Shiny Great Jaw Ant underground beforehand.
Wouldn't he be able to avoid a battle and snatch it ahead of time?
"Sand Worm Python, I need to ask you to do something."
Shi Yi bent down and told the Sand Worm Python his plan.
The Sand Worm Python understood immediately.
As a veteran of the desert, the Sand Worm Python's burrowing skills were top-notch.
"Sishā!"
The Sand Worm Python reminded Shi Yi to hold its sand sac tightly, it was going to charge... no, it was going to start digging!
"Let's go!"
Shi Yi gave the order.
The Sand Worm Python charged into the sand.
Under the Sand Worm Python's digging, a hole the size of the Sand Worm Python's sand sac was created.
Shi Yi held onto the Sand Worm Python's sand sac and followed it forward.
Just like that, they traveled through the underground.
"Wait!"
"Sishā?"
The Sand Worm Python, which had been digging smoothly, suddenly stopped at Shi Yi's call... its whole body even trembled.
"Sand Worm Python, this direction... you're a... directionally challenged!"
Shi Yi frowned and couldn't help but complain.
Fortunately, there was a data panel to navigate.
Otherwise, the Sand Worm Python would have dug in a different direction again.
"Sishā..."
The Sand Worm Python flicked its tongue in apology.
Then.
Under Shi Yi's command.
The Sand Worm Python dug straight towards the direction of the Super Armor Rhino and the Great Jaw Ant colony's battle.
From time to time, Shi Yi could feel the shaking of the ground.
"This guy... the noise he's making is really loud."
"Looks like he's going to use Earthquake to shake all the Great Jaw Ants underground out?"
Shi Yi said seriously.
This is indeed a good method.
But... I won't let you succeed!
Shi Yi patted the Sand Worm Python, urging it to speed up.
Under the Sand Worm Python's digging and charging.
Finally, they entered the Great Jaw Ant's underground nest.
Here, there were Great Jaw Ant tunnels everywhere, in a chaotic mess.
Every tunnel seemed to connect to a different place.
And when the Sand Worm Python dug into these winding underground tunnels.
Following the tunnel.
Shi Yi and the Sand Worm Python slid directly to the bottom.
At the same time.
In front of them... there were several Great Jaw Ants.
Among them, the differently colored Great Jaw Ant was right there!
