Pokémon's Lord of Fear

Chapter 11: Gengar and the Mansion

Overlord-level Pokémon, this is a type of Pokémon that the League has only recently confirmed.

Compared with ordinary Pokémon of the same kind, Overlord-level Pokémon are stronger and larger in size. They are very powerful wild Pokémon and their status is relatively much higher, but not every Overlord can receive special treatment from the Alliance.

At least as far as Teng Shu himself knew, in the entire Hoenn region, only this Gengar received special treatment from the Alliance.

"Because I plan to make a horror movie, I want to shoot a scene here." It was not the first time that Teng Shu saw Gengar in front of him, but even so, facing this huge Gengar, Teng Shu could feel a kind of vague pressure.

Little Q was trembling in Teng Shu's arms, its excited little eyes fixed on Gengar in front of it, which forced Teng Shu to hold Little Q down to prevent this guy from taking the initiative to attack.

Although every attack was useless, as Gengar was too strong and could immobilize Xiao Q in an instant, Xiao Q still kept fighting despite repeated defeats.

The old butler Shibata at the side wiped his glasses calmly. He was not worried about Teng Shu's safety.

"Horror movie? This is really interesting." Gengar let out a weird laugh.

As it laughed, the surrounding shadows began to tremble, as if their bodies were blown by the wind, but there was no wind in the Orange Forest right now.

Teng Shu was not surprised that Gengar knew about horror movies.

Generally speaking, Pokémon are not very good at communicating with humans. The ones that can communicate with humans are often Pokémon with psychic attributes. These Pokémon can communicate with humans through telepathy, but the Gengar in front of him can speak the official language of the League proficiently and also possesses extremely high intelligence.

This is a very special overlord.

"Mr. Gengar, do you want to perform?" Teng Shu asked tentatively.

But he knew in his heart that this Gengar would not agree.

"I'm not interested. After the movie is shot, someone will definitely come here to find me. It's too much trouble." Gengar shook his head decisively, his eyes standing out in the forest.

Although it is a dominant beast and is so big that it looks difficult to mess with, there are always some trainers who are extremely confident and think they are the destined protagonists. They want to conquer it and then show their status as the protagonist.

Such trainers were severely taught a lesson by Gengar.

"Okay, let's put those useless things aside and we'll talk about it next time." Gengar looked at Teng Shu excitedly. A hand stretched out from its body, and one of its fingers was as thick as Teng Shu's head.

Teng Shu naturally knew what Gengar was going to do. He took a deep breath and his eyes became much more serious.

"Three, two...one!" the old butler Shibata shouted loudly.

"Scissors!" Gengar stretched out his hand, revealing two fingers.

"Stone!" Teng Shu also shouted, and stretched out his fist. Gengar instantly sat down on the ground in dejection.

Teng Shu calmly took out a small notebook from his pocket and drew something on it.

"What's the score now?" Gengar's ear-like protrusions shrunk down. Gengar now looked completely devoid of the domineering power of a dominant Pokémon, and instead looked a little aggrieved. "Hmm, 132:89." Teng Shu looked at the numbers on the notebook.

The corners of Gengar's mouth were almost drooping onto its legs.

One hundred and thirty-two? In other words, it, a dominant Pokémon, actually lost to a little brat like Teng Shu forty-three times? What the hell is this game? Why is it so difficult?

Gengar couldn't understand.

"Brat, I will definitely win next time." Gengar said indignantly, then it crawled into the shadow and disappeared.

Teng Shu was not surprised. Every time he came to the Orange Forest, Gengar would drag him to play rock-paper-scissors. And every time Gengar would do the same thing. If he lost, he would just run away. If he won, he would show off in front of him like crazy, which made Teng Shu laugh and cry.

It is clearly a dominant Pokémon, but Teng Shu doesn't feel much of a dominant aura from it.

"Let's go, Master Teng Shu." The old butler Shibata was no longer surprised, and calmly took Teng Shu all the way to the western-style house.

Teng Shu looked at the western-style house in front of him. After years of wear and tear, the house became even older. Perhaps because no one cleaned it, the walls of the house were covered with plants such as ivy.

The whole place still looks a little eerie under the afternoon sun.

Teng Shu could even see a ghost shadow flashing through the exposed window on the second floor. The entire western-style mansion looked even more terrifying against this backdrop.

"This place is quite interesting." Teng Shu touched his chin. He had seen the design drawings of the western-style house. The first floor of this house was basically empty and there was no furniture. It could be arranged into a theater and then put all kinds of human-shaped puppets and Pokémon puppets on it.

Because according to Teng Shu's adaptation, Mary Shaw not only killed people, but also killed their Pokémon and made them into puppets. Even for this reason, the protagonist's father had to be shown with some puppet details at the end to make the audience realize that the protagonist's father is actually a puppet.

"Master Teng Shu, there are still a lot of ghost Pokémon here. What are you going to do with them?" Old Man Shibata asked with a smile. He had six Poké Balls on his waist.

Shibata is also a trainer, and he is quite powerful, which is why he dares to run around with Teng Shu alone.

"Grandpa Shibata, I want to go in and take a look first." Teng Shu did not intend to let Shibata take action directly. Daigo was right. It was time for him to consider strengthening his strength. Otherwise, he could not let the old butler always stay by his side to protect him. That would not be appropriate.

The old butler didn't say anything after hearing this, but walked in front of Teng Shu and stood slightly in front of Teng Shu, so that he could immediately block any problems if they occurred.

After the door was opened, dust filled the sunlight and floated everywhere.

Teng Shu couldn't help but narrow his eyes.

When the dust cleared, a western-style house covered by time appeared in front of Teng Shu. The water and electricity in this house had been cut off for a long time, but at this moment, there was a strange atmosphere of life here. Teng Shu even saw some rotten wood.
Tables and chairs?

It seemed so, but it looked so poor quality that Teng Shu couldn't be sure whether it was a table or a chair.

On the second floor and stairwell of the mansion, as well as deep in the first floor, countless pairs of densely packed small eyes appeared, looking at Teng Shu quietly.
