Chapter 225: Bumper Harvest And Special Eevee
Qu Gang opened his mouth, wanting to speak but stopping himself.
He wasn’t worried about Yu Lili and Lu Li, but rather that Yu Lili would get entangled with the Rainbow Hero.
Through his observations these past few days, Qu Gang knew that Li Zhi currently had no romantic feelings for anyone, but one had to guard against the unexpected.
It couldn’t be helped; it was mainly because Yu Lili had too good a track record.
“You’d better pray that the Trade Convention goes smoothly, or I’ll definitely hold you responsible,” Qu Suxin said before hanging up the phone.
Afterward, Qu Suxin called her secretary, “Pay close attention to the Deep Blue Black Market. If anything unexpected happens, immediately send people to maintain order.”
The female secretary nodded, then looked at Qu Suxin with some confusion.
Shouldn’t the most important thing right now be to go to war with the Yao Family?
“No rush, let’s talk about it after the Trade Convention,” Qu Suxin said with some helplessness.
If nothing unexpected happens at this Trade Convention, then the Qu Family can indeed contend with the Yao Family, but if something does happen, then they’ll have to abandon that plan.
…………
The next morning.
Lu Li, who was in a state of cultivation, was interrupted by a knock on the door.
After opening the door, Yao Yifei stood elegantly at the doorway.
Yao Yifei said, “We’re going to the second basement level next, where there are merchants from various regions of the Asian Alliance.”
Lu Li nodded.
The hotel had an elevator that directly reached the second floor of the Deep Blue Black Market. The layout of the Deep Blue Black Market was similar to the first floor, with the addition of people wearing various strange clothes.
“Should we go to the Pokémon Egg area first, and then the grocery area?” Yao Yifei asked.
Lu Li nodded.
The haul today was much less than yesterday. In the Pokémon Egg area, Lu Li only found a Master Level qualification Masana Pokémon Egg.
Masana is a Pokémon unique to the A-San Region. The Holy Dragon also has them in the Jiuzhou Region, but those were introduced, and they are very rare.
For high-quality Masana, one still has to look to the A-San Region.
Yao Yifei commented, “Masana isn’t a very outstanding Psychic Type Pokémon, but it can Mega Evolve, making it relatively good among Psychic Type Pokémon.”
Medicham’s base stat total is a mere 410. A base stat total over 400 places it in the T3 tier in the Pokédex.
“Let’s see if Bao Bao likes it, after all, this Masana’s qualification is quite good,” Lu Li said.
“What qualification?” Yao Yifei asked curiously.
For Lu Li to call it a good qualification, this Pokémon Egg’s qualification should be quite considerable.
Lu Li said, “Heavenly King Level.”
“Then that’s indeed quite considerable,” Yao Yifei said, looking at the Pokémon Egg with some envy.
With Heavenly King Level qualification, plus a Pokémon Secret Treasure and evolution, the final destination for this Pokémon Egg could be Champion Level.
Yao Yifei asked, “Is this the only Pokémon Egg here?”
Lu Li nodded. There were still some with Gym Level qualification, but Lu Li had no intention of buying them.
It wasn’t that he looked down on those Gym Level qualification Pokémon Eggs, but rather that those Gym Level Pokémon Eggs were almost all from other regions.
The biggest problem with cross-region nurturing is the lack of reference objects, and there might even be issues with adapting to the local environment.
Furthermore, he wasn’t lacking Gym Level qualification Pokémon Eggs at the moment, so Lu Li didn’t buy those Pokémon Eggs that could only be considered minor finds.
Although he had money, it wasn’t an infinite amount.
Having lived through difficult times, Lu Li didn’t want his life to be tight again.
Upon reaching the grocery area, Lu Li bought more metal. As for herbs and the like, Lu Li didn’t find any this time.
“Did my luck run out?” Lu Li wondered to himself.
With time still remaining, Lu Li went up to the third floor.
This was the floor representing the European Alliance region.
“Actually, I don’t really recommend you nurture Pokémon from other regions. Firstly, cultivation manuals for Pokémon from other regions are difficult to obtain, and secondly, high-qualification Pokémon from other Alliances rarely appear in the Asian Alliance…”
Lu Li felt that what Yao Yifei said made a lot of sense, and he couldn’t help but glance at the Pokémon Egg in his arms again.
It was a Heavenly King Level qualification Hatenna, and this Pokémon Egg was also about a size larger than a normal Hatenna Pokémon Egg.
If not for his Spiritual Vision Eye, Lu Li would have suspected that there was something wrong with this Pokémon Egg. But under the gaze of his Spiritual Vision Eye, this Pokémon Egg was indeed very healthy, even healthily so to an unbelievable degree.
Hatenna had two stages of evolution. At the Pokémon Egg stage, it was Heavenly King Level qualification, meaning this Hatenna had Master Qualification!
Coupled with its final evolution, Brimm would have a base stat total of 510. Hatenna could be considered an excellent Pokémon.
Lu Li muttered in his heart, “If this qualification had been given to yesterday’s Ralts Pokémon Egg, it would have been perfect.”
Seeing that Lu Li had taken her words to heart, Yao Yifei was satisfied and couldn’t help but ask, “What qualification does this Pokémon Egg have?”
Lu Li: “Heavenly King Level.”
Yao Yifei: “???”
“This is just a coincidence. I mean, what kind of Pokémon Egg is this?” Yao Yifei’s confidence slightly wavered.
Lu Li: “Hatenna.”
Yao Yifei: “???”
When my mind is full of question marks, it’s not me who has a problem, it’s you.
“What happened over in the European Alliance? How did they allow a Pokémon Egg with Master Qualification to fall into the wrong hands?”
Yao Yifei was completely flabbergasted.
Pokémon with Master Level qualification are considered “nuclear weapons” in any Alliance. How could a Pokémon Egg with such qualification appear in the Jiuzhou Region?
After all, Brimm is the most famous signature Psychic Type Pokémon of the European Alliance.
“I don’t know either, it’s probably a coincidence,” Lu Li said with a slight smile.
“Are you planning to nurture it yourself?” Yao Yifei asked.
Lu Li nodded.
Yao Yifei breathed a sigh of relief. If Lu Li were to give this Pokémon Egg to Bao Bao, she would be jealous of that little girl.
This was Master Qualification.
After Lu Li placed the Pokémon Egg into his Space Ring, Yao Yifei reluctantly withdrew her gaze.
Yao Yifei said, unwilling to give up, “Don’t forget what you promised me.”
The appearance of high-quality Pokémon Eggs one after another made Yao Yifei unable to help but look forward to what was next.
What if the next one they encountered was a high-quality Eevee Pokémon Egg? If not, then a Flying Type wouldn’t be bad either…
After leaving the Pokémon Egg area, the two went to the grocery area again.
The European Alliance had rich mineral resources, and Lu Li collected many strange metals here.
Metal resources in the Pokémon World are actually quite abundant. Some are extracted from various metal ores, some come from various Pokémon, some are from beyond the heavens, and of course, more is artificially synthesized.
Next was the third floor for the North American Alliance.
Yao Yifei had high expectations for this floor.
It wasn’t that the North American Alliance had many good things, but rather that they had many Flying Type Pokémon, and most of them were very excellent Flying Type Pokémon.
He could no longer count on Eevee, so Yao Yifei could only place her hopes on Flying Type Pokémon.
At a few identified targets, Lu Li stopped and turned to ask, “What do you think of Rufflet?”
“Rufflet…”
A hint of hesitation crossed Yao Yifei’s face. She liked cute or pretty Pokémon; Rufflet’s appearance was certainly not endearing.
While she didn’t dislike Rufflet, she certainly wasn’t fond of it either.
When choosing a Pokémon, the most important factor is affection.
Mentally conflicted, Yao Yifei asked, “What qualification does it have?”
“Heavenly King,” Lu Li said softly.
Lu Li discovered that the Deep Blue Black Market was truly terrifyingly strong. Almost every floor had a Champion Level qualification Pokémon. This probability could be described as outrageous.
“This means that with a Pokémon Secret Treasure, it’s at least Champion Level,” Yao Yifei was greatly tempted.
However, considering Rufflet’s appearance, Yao Yifei retreated.
Finding a Pokémon was like finding a partner; if you don’t like them, it can only lead to mutual dislike.
Yao Yifei didn’t want to neglect the emotional bond between humans and Pokémon for the sake of pursuing power.
“Let’s buy it first,” Yao Yifei decided with difficulty in her tone.
Lu Li nodded. Even if Yao Yifei didn’t like it, Lu Li wouldn’t let go of a Pokémon Egg with this qualification.
After leaving the stall area, the two went to the shop area.
Similar to the European Alliance shop area before, the shop owners here were from other Alliances, and they were all beautiful women, almost all with blonde hair, blue eyes, and long legs.
“What about Vullaby? Vullaby, you should like it, right?” Lu Li asked.
The three signature Flying Type Pokémon of the North American Alliance were Rufflet, Hawlucha, and Staraptor, with Hawlucha being the most aesthetically pleasing.
If even this couldn’t catch Yao Yifei’s eye, they would have to go to the next floor.
“Hawlucha?”
Yao Yifei’s eyes lit up.
Hawlucha wasn’t exactly beautiful, but it wasn’t ugly, and it looked quite handsome and cool.
Yao Yifei said excitedly, “I quite like Hawlucha.”
“What qualification does it have?” Yao Yifei asked with great anticipation.
Lu Li: “Heavenly King Level.”
Yao Yifei eagerly pressed, “Is this qualification within the egg or the final qualification?”
“Of course, it’s within the egg. If it were the final qualification, I wouldn’t have told you,” Lu Li said, giving Yao Yifei a sideways glance.
“Meaning…”
Yao Yifei didn’t realize her tone was already trembling slightly.
Lu Li: “That’s right, the final qualification is Master Level.”
“Don’t get too excited, let’s buy it first,” Lu Li quickly said to calm the excited Yao Yifei.
*Smooch~*
Yao Yifei’s red lips pressed firmly against Lu Li’s cheek.
“Lu Li, you’re amazing,” Yao Yifei exclaimed, overcome with excitement.
Lu Li could only counter with a Calming Technique.
The Calming Technique was a minor spell specifically designed to assist Alchemists in alchemy, its main effect being to bring about a state of utter calm, unfazed by any disaster.
“What kind of ability is this? It actually made my mood instantly calm,” Yao Yifei looked at Lu Li curiously.
“We’ll talk about that later.”
After saying that, Lu Li went into the shop and bought the Master Qualification Pokémon Egg.
“Here,” Lu Li handed the Pokémon Egg to Yao Yifei.
After carefully placing the Pokémon Egg into her Storage Ring, Yao Yifei nervously glanced around. Seeing that no one was observing them, she finally breathed a sigh of relief.
Next, the two visited the South American Alliance area and the African Alliance area. However, their luck this time was not as good as before.
They found nothing on either floor.
Yao Yifei comforted him, “The African Alliance is very special. There are many secret realms there. If there are good things, they’re usually consumed there and never make it over here.”
“Besides, our haul this time is already quite good. Cheer up!” Yao Yifei said, patting Lu Li heavily on the shoulder to encourage him.
“Indeed, the haul this time is quite good,” Lu Li said with a relieved smile.
Two Master Level qualification Pokémon Eggs, and one Champion Level qualification.
This harvest was greater than robbing an Alliance Treasure Vault. What else could he be unsatisfied with?
“However…”
Back at the hotel, Lu Li stared at the ceiling, lost in thought.
Would the entity that interfered with his Divination reveal itself?
…………
Nandu.
“Are there any changes to this Trade Convention, or anything else?” Qu Suxin asked while flipping through documents.
The female secretary beside her, holding files, reported, “It’s the same as usual. If there’s any difference, it’s that the Divine Cult has sent a Holy Son to participate in the auction this time.”
“A Holy Son?”
Qu Suxin stopped what she was doing and frowned, saying, “This is not good news. Whenever those people appear, it’s always accompanied by trouble.”
“Do you know their purpose for attending the auction?” Qu Suxin continued to inquire.
“They are here to auction the Divine Cult’s latest results.”
Hearing this, Qu Suxin’s interest was immediately piqued, “Oh? What kind of results?”
The female secretary gritted her teeth and said, “Dual-attribute Eevee.”
“Dual-attribute Eevee? Can you elaborate?” Qu Suxin adjusted her posture and asked seriously.
“The Divine Cult brought two Eevee this time: a special Psychic and Fairy Type Eevee, and a special Fire and Water Type Eevee.”
Qu Suxin still couldn’t believe that the Divine Cult had already researched such technology, so she asked persistently, “Have they been checked? Are you sure these Eevee’s gene states are stable?”
“We’ve specifically checked them. Neither of those two Eevee are at risk of gene collapse. Especially the Water Fire Eevee, its qualification even reached Master Level.”
Upon hearing this, Qu Suxin shot up from her chair.
“Why didn’t you tell me about something so important earlier?” Qu Suxin rebuked.
After all, these were Master Level qualification Pokémon, and they were so special.
The female secretary quickly explained, “In fact, the Divine Cult only brought the Pokémon over for auction today.”
Qu Suxin asked, “Can we intercept those two Eevee?”
The female secretary shook her head, “The Divine Cult’s goal seems to be to gain fame, so they require us to auction them.”
“They want to show off their Divine Cult’s technology? They truly are a group of people who can’t stand to see the world in peace,” Qu Suxin said with a cold laugh.
The female secretary cautiously asked, “Should we participate in the auction?”
Qu Suxin asked cautiously, “Has this news spread?”
“It has already spread, and many Family Representatives are rushing this way.”
