Chapter 257: The Possibility Of Aegislash Becoming A Natal Flying Sword
Long Ying looked at Lu Li with a strange gaze.
Is this the value of the Rainbow Hero? He actually directly ignored the side effects of Teleport. You know, even Psychics feel discomfort when using Teleport.
“As far as I know, when Pokémon carry people using Teleport, it brings strong discomfort to people, specifically like being thrown into a cramped pipe and spinning around.” Long Ying explained.
“I really didn’t have that feeling.” Lu Li spread his hands, no longer pretending.
I! Rainbow Hero, having a bit of Psychic Power is very normal, right?
However, Teleport actually has such side effects, which he truly hadn’t noticed before.
“This is also why Flying Pokémon haven’t been eliminated.” Long Ying continued.
Long Ying added: “However, Teleport used by Champion Level Pokémon has no side effects.”
Lu Li nodded. No wonder Qu Suxin always relied on Gardevoir to go out, not Flying Type Pokémon.
Long Ying continued to recommend herself: “Do you want me to take you to the classroom?”
Lu Li shook his head: “Thank you for your kindness, but I plan to go to the library.”
Long Ying’s eyes flashed with a hint of embarrassment upon hearing this.
For the first time taking the initiative, yet getting such a result, Long Ying even began to doubt her own charm.
“No problem, as long as I openly defeat this guy in the Freshman Competition, this guy will definitely submit.” Long Ying comforted herself in her heart.
The girl who didn’t understand love naively thought that as long as she beat someone down, it would be like conquering Pokémon, drawing closer the relationship between the two.
Half a month had already passed, and Long Ying, having learned a new Secret Technique, was fully confident in winning the championship.
As for why she was so confident? Of course, because that dead fatty didn’t come to Kyushu University. No way, a Snorlax that can Gigantamax in the freshman stage is too outrageous; it’s not something one or two Secret Techniques can make up for.
After bidding farewell to Long Ying, Lu Li couldn’t wait and headed straight to the school’s library.
According to the librarian’s introduction, the entire library is divided into three parts.
The basement records various ancient literature and archaeological excavation data, the first floor has all modern books and data, and the second floor has various cutting-edge modern knowledge, such as Pokémon Secret Techniques or nurturing knowledge.
Ordinary students can only borrow and read books on the first floor; the basement and second floor require a teacher’s recommendation letter.
Lu Li already had the principal’s recommendation, so he could freely view all the books here.
Lu Li roughly calculated the books here; a rough estimate was at least 200 million volumes, including books, manuscripts, maps, audiovisual materials, photographs, and other forms of literature.
If counting only books, the number exceeds 70 million volumes.
Lu Li took a deep breath and eagerly began his journey of exploring knowledge.
Lu Li’s main target wasn’t the Secret Techniques in the library, but various knowledge related to nurturing.
“Really strange, as the Rainbow Hero, this little guy actually loves nurturing studies.” Wen Gongmao helplessly watched Lu Li head straight to the nurturing data area and complained.
Long Du also complained: “Indeed quite strange. Previous generations of Rainbow Heroes were all Trainers, how did it mutate in this generation?”
“Let’s not talk about this little guy’s matters for now. Let’s talk about the failure of the Dragon Island quota. I think one quota might be too few; how about three? What if the Rainbow Hero doesn’t get first place?” Wen Gongmao appeared cautious.
Long Du’s mouth twitched slightly upon hearing this.
The Asian Alliance’s Champion not getting first place in Kyushu University’s casual matches? What kind of international joke is that?
Wen Gongmao said: “After all, your sister will also participate, and that little girl’s strength has grown stronger again.”
“Then two.” Long Du had no interest in bickering with Wen Gongmao.
On one hand, because of the other’s status, and on the other, because of the other’s strength, Long Du truly didn’t dare to speak loudly in front of this person.
Wen Gongmao nodded satisfied upon hearing this.
The reason Long Du agreed so readily was simply that he believed his sister could get first or second place. In that calculation, the Dragon Family actually paid nothing.
But the problem is… Long Ying might not necessarily get second place.
This year’s freshmen could be called the most outrageous class since Kyushu University was founded.
Long Du came to the school this time to discuss the Dragon Island quota, and secondly to send his sister to school.
“Right, many hidden noble families have signed up for Kyushu University this year. Isn’t that a coincidence?” Wen Gongmao suddenly sneered.
Long Du’s facial expression changed upon hearing this.
Unlike the eighteen attribute noble families on the surface, the comprehensive strength of those hidden noble families was the most terrifying.
They parasitize in Secret Realms, surviving one world-ending crisis after another. No one knows what terrifying power those hidden noble families are hiding.
Even the youngest hidden noble family, the Ji Family, is an ancient family that has endured four epochs, let alone those ancient families with inheritance from primordial times.
Long Du dryly laughed: “Looks like the Rainbow Hero is quite popular.”
“So you’re still sure your little girl can get second place?” Wen Gongmao teased.
“Hmph~” Long Du snorted coldly and sarcastically smiled: “What those ancient families fear is their family foundation, not the strength of their Trainers.”
As a family that has remained prosperous from the beginning until now, the Dragon Family can also be considered part of the ancient relics, but the Dragon Family equally despises all ancient relics.
The reason the Imperial Dragon Family is so confident is that their family almost never has a generation break, meaning every generation produces Champion or even Master-level Trainers.
Other families aren’t necessarily like that.
For example, the Ji Family, as an ancient relic, has only produced one Master-level Trainer in the past millennium, and moreover, a lunatic.
Just from this, one can see how much fluff these ancient relics have.
Those ancient relics don’t want to appear in the present world? Of course not! It’s that they don’t have the capital!
Even if there are heavenly geniuses from multiple ancient relics as opponents, Long Du believes his sister won’t be inferior to them.
Wen Gongmao also smiled mildly and didn’t make further comments.
As a Master-level Trainer of commoner origin, Wen Gongmao always maintained reverence toward these ancient relics.
No noble family that withstands the test of time is simple.
Long Du suddenly changed the topic, his voice low: “Right, there’s some intelligence I believe the old mister will be interested in.”
Wen Gongmao curiously looked at Long Du, wondering what this contemporary Dragon Envoy of the Imperial Dragon Family was scheming.
Long Du asked: “The whereabouts of the Earth God, is the old mister interested?”
Wen Gongmao’s facial expression changed as he asked in a low voice: “Are you talking about the Earth God Groudon?”
Long Du nodded.
“Spies from the North American Alliance reported back that the Earth God might be in the Fugaku Secret Realm of the Yamato Region.” After speaking, Long Du quietly observed the old man’s facial expression.
No Ground Type Trainer can resist the temptation of the Earth God.
Long Du believed the old mister before him would definitely be very interested in this.
After taking a deep breath to calm his excited heart, Wen Gongmao hoarsely asked: “You tell this old man this news; what do you want to gain here?”
Seeing the other take the bait, Long Du’s mouth curved slightly: “I heard that you adopted a little girl blessed by the Forest God.”
Wen Gongmao’s pupils contracted as he gazed deeply at Long Du before him.
Wen Gongmao asked with a grim facial expression: “How do you know about this matter? Is it the Alliance… or your Dragon Family?”
“This world has no secrets, especially after three people know, it’s no longer a secret.” Long Du smiled meaningfully.
The Alliance side isn’t certain about this news yet, but now it can be confirmed.
The legendary Forest Messenger has also appeared in the present world. Combined with various demons and gods, the danger level of this epoch will be the highest in history.
The Alliance and Dragon Family might both need to prepare in advance; who knows when this world might inexplicably disappear.
Long Du had already decided in his heart: upon returning to the Dragon Family, he would quickly have the family relocate to the Dragon Island Secret Realm.
That way, even if danger comes, it won’t wipe out the Dragon Family in one wave.
“This cannot be disclosed.” Long Du refused to answer the source of the news.
Wen Gongmao didn’t pursue it but continued watching the other.
“Our request is simple: after the Forest Messenger reaches the top, we need her to agree to act on our behalf twice.” Long Du said.
The Forest Messenger is different from the Ideal Messenger. Although the Forest God Celebi’s combat power is only Tier 3 God, Celebi is a god who masters the authorities of forest and traversal.
If someone foolishly tries to trouble the Forest Messenger, they might get a Celebi legion called in retaliation.
What makes Celebi most terrifying is its ability to traverse parallel worlds, and it’s currently the only Divine Beast among all with a legion.
How headstrong does one have to be to choose to oppose a god that can traverse time?
For such Divine Envoys that cannot be killed, the Alliance and various powers all hold a favorable attitude, of course, lunatics excepted.
“If the intelligence is true, this request isn’t excessive.” Wen Gongmao didn’t agree directly.
First, because he’s not the one who makes decisions on this matter, and second, because he’s not sure if the news is true.
Wen Gongmao coldly warned: “My granddaughter is still in junior high; I don’t like anyone disturbing her.”
The Master-level Trainer’s aura overwhelmingly pressed down on Long Du.
Enduring the immense oppressive force, Long Du gritted his teeth and nodded: “Please rest assured, Master. We absolutely have no malice, and we won’t treat your granddaughter like we do the Rainbow Hero.”
Honey traps can be used against the Rainbow Hero, and handsome traps against the Forest Messenger, but Wen Gongmao isn’t an unworldly deity; how could he allow such a thing?
Only then did Wen Gongmao retract his aura.
“Is this the strength of an old-brand Master? Even if not at peak, just the sense of oppression makes one shudder.” Long Du sincerely praised in his heart.
His strongest Pokémon now is only Champion mid-stage; to step into Master level, even in the best luck scenario, it would take five years.
Long Du left.
Confirmed his goal was achieved, but his departing figure was somewhat disheveled.
Wen Gongmao narrowed his eyes, watching the Dragonite gradually turn into a black dot.
“The Alliance is becoming more and more unfamiliar. Those idealists from back then ultimately couldn’t escape the corrosion of reality.” Wen Gongmao sighed in his heart.
Lu Li didn’t know what happened in the principal’s office. At this moment, he was immersed in the ocean of knowledge.
Although the knowledge in this library wasn’t profound, it covered a sufficiently wide range.
Lu Li stayed in the library for a whole day.
By the time Espeon came to pick him up, the sky had already darkened.
His harvest in the library today was great; Lu Li gained a new understanding of this world.
Before today, Lu Li always thought this world had no undiscovered Pokémon, only some ninth-generation Pokémon.
But through checking, Lu Li learned there are still some undiscovered Pokémon, including some from the Kitakami Region, like Slither Wing.
No, it’s not exactly undiscovered; it should be said they are already extinct.
In terms of region division, the Kitakami Region should correspond to some ancient era on Blue Star.
Strangely, there is currently no Secret Realm on Blue Star related to that era. He saw records of Kitakami form Pokémon in some ancient literature.
But it didn’t state whether these Pokémon still exist. Lu Li even checked the modern Pokémon encyclopedia again, concluding that Kitakami form Pokémon do not exist in this era.
Besides that, there was some chilling intelligence.
Kyushu University has a laboratory researching artificial Pokémon, and more terrifyingly, such laboratories are not prohibited in this world.
Lu Li found that this world’s moral standards seemed lower than he imagined.
Back at the villa, Lu Li shut himself in the basement.
Deeply shocked, Lu Li had a crazy idea in his heart.
Lu Li also wanted to try creating life, accurately speaking, creating Pokémon.
As everyone knows, the Cultivation World has ghost immortals.
Some evil path cultivators create powerful ghosts through special cruel methods, like gathering malign energy or resentment.
Among the Cultivation Hundred Arts, there are also sub-professions belonging to the demonic path, like Corpse Raisers and ghost raisers.
In the Cultivation World, whether zombies or ghosts, they are actually a kind of resource.
Spirit Plants can assist cultivation to improve cultivation level, so the Spirit Farmer profession was born.
Zombies and ghosts can similarly assist cultivation to improve strength, naturally giving rise to related professions.
Although Lu Li had no grasp of creating other attribute Pokémon, he had some confidence in creating Ghost Type Pokémon.
The Cultivation World has sword spirits, the Pokémon World has Aegislash; in some ways, these two worlds have common points.
Speaking of Aegislash, Lu Li also recalled the origin and introduction of Aegislash he saw in the library.
Aegislash seems to be reborn from the souls of the dead inhabiting ancient swords, attaching to humans to absorb life.
Aegislash consists of two parts: the ancient sword it inhabits and the dead soul. The quality of these two directly affects Aegislash’s qualification.
Aegislash belongs to the Mineral Group. The origins of this world’s Aegislash are basically two kinds. The first is naturally born, generally from ancient kings or generals’ burial tombs.
The other is offspring of Aegislash and other Mineral Group Pokémon.
Yes, Aegislash also has gender distinctions, can have children, and even offspring with Perrserker, because Perrserker is Mineral Group and Land Group.
Lu Li’s idea was to refine a Magic Tool himself, convert it into a Destined Magic Tool, then use a ghost raiser’s method to catalyze a special unconscious ghost soul.
After combining the two, Lu Li was almost 90% sure of successfully catalyzing an Aegislash, giving him a Destined Magic Tool that could continuously evolve.
Both a Magic Tool and a Pokémon—Lu Li couldn’t imagine how refreshing it would be to cultivate with it then.
Being carried by the Destined Magic Tool would be great, because when the Destined Magic Tool improves, it also brings its master along, somewhat similar to a Beast Tamer’s Blood Pact.
He didn’t lack special metals now; what he lacked was artifact refining techniques.
“So currently first priority is artifact refining Pokémonfication, so must focus on cramming Pokémon Item studies.” Lu Li quickly made a decision in his heart.
Becoming a Master-level Trainer is tempting, but transcending with one’s body also has allure.
“No, also need to research Ghost Type knowledge.” Lu Li continued pondering the flaws in this plan.
But if Aegislash is converted to a Natal Flying Sword, by Cultivation World’s flying sword laws, Aegislash should count as a demonic tool.
Bad! Would have to switch to demonic cultivator.
Lu Li was startled in his heart.
But in the Pokémon World, Ghost attribute isn’t rejected by world laws, so Aegislash won’t have the treatment of a demonic sword.
This counts as good news.
Then there’s the Spine Dragon Pokémon Egg matter. The previous idea of using formations to supplement the Spine Dragon’s Life Origin can basically be abandoned.
Because he now has a simpler method.
Using Revival Grass as the main ingredient to refine Vitality Creation Liquid specifically to supplement Life Origin, soaking with Vitality Creation Liquid might solve the Spine Dragon Pokémon Egg’s Life Origin deficiency.
Previously, the Leng Family people had eyed that egg, and even Ekaterina did. Leaving it there isn’t safe; now that a solution is found, better to retrieve the Pokémon Egg first.
Thinking of this, Lu Li began calculating the other auxiliary ingredients for Vitality Creation Liquid.
Two hours later.
Lu Li edited a new list and sent it to Qu Tongtong.
Lu Li didn’t think he was freeloading; the money for these materials could completely be considered rent for Xerneas’s Horn Fragment.
…………
Qingmu City.
Ji Family Second Elder narrowed his eyes, looking at the Gym before him, and muttered to himself: “This woman’s daughter has pretty good talent, but pity that woman is too stupid, actually wasting her daughter’s talent for nothing.”
Unlike others in the family, he had always paid attention to An Feng, so he knew her situation clearly.
The Yao Family is just a newborn family; in terms of family foundation, the Ji Family can outstrip the Yao Family by miles, let alone that An Feng found only a Yao Family collateral branch.
But An Feng’s daughter was unexpectedly excellent. Even without the family’s professional nurturing, she became a Gym Level Trainer before 26.
The Second Elder often sighed over this. If he had known Yao Yifei had such talent, he would have secretly taken her back to nurture.
What concept is a 26-year-old Gym Level Trainer? In the Ji Family, that’s solidly Master Qualification!
Such a genius, the Ji Family has only produced one in nearly a thousand years.
