Master Craftsman of the Elven World

Chapter 251 Reunion in a Dream

[Gain: Research knowledge for your dreams!]

[Description: The Plasma Group's secret research at the Ruins of Dreams is strongly linked to dreams/aspirations. They attempt to use dreams to widen the fissures in people's hearts in order to manipulate them. This contains a wealth of research on dreams and the fissures within dreams!]

[With this knowledge, your understanding of dreams will deepen, which will help you develop corresponding dream-related devices!]

[Bonus Acquisition: Mental Illusion!]

[Description: The ability to project superpowers into the real world to create fantastical objects; a special power possessed by superpowered individuals. These illusions typically lack a physical form.]

However, if specific Mind Crystals/Mind Crystals/Dream Smoke are used, the created illusions will actually possess combat abilities. Combined with knowledge of the Voices of Another World, there is a 10% chance of creating incredible illusionary projections!

[Note: Projecting mental illusions requires a high level of mental strength and can only be used effectively by experienced psychics. Projecting Pokémon or buildings places a significant strain on one's mental state and requires the use of mental support items. Currently, you can only project a maximum of 1. Obtaining special mental crystals can increase this limit.]

The researchers, their hearts shattered, began to weep bitterly. The darkness within them faded, and they began to examine their past actions.

Unfortunately, most of these researchers were studying things related to dreams and human nature, and they were completely unaware of the research and important secrets inside the plasma cluster.

In most cases, it was Asura who led them.

"However, this might also make the Plasma Group more restrained. Their testimonies will be reported to the Alliance, and the United States Alliance will take corresponding measures, probably restricting the Plasma Group's missionary activities and notifying various cities to prohibit the Plasma Group from proselytizing, but whether the various cities will listen is unknown."

In the United States, the mayors of each city also have a great deal of autonomy, which is very much like America.

Their theory, even without using Pokémon like Daewoo to erase people's memories, would still be quite popular among the masses. Discussing the relationship between humans and Pokémon is itself a highly intriguing and philosophically thought-provoking topic. It holds appeal for both trainers and non-trainers alike.

"Your superpowers are really amazing. They were just baring their teeth at us, saying that their failure wasn't their fault, and now they're starting to confess."

The superpowered Future exclaimed in surprise, "I feel this is much better than my half-baked ability to foresee the future."

"Hey, dreams are the driving force for moving forward in life, but they can slip away from your hands in the blink of an eye if you're not careful. These researchers are the best example of the opposite."

After saying goodbye to the three superpowered individuals and Saeko, who planned to continue her research, the group returned to Sanyo City without stopping.

As for the researchers, several superpowered individuals said they would hand them over to law enforcement and let the Sanyo City police department handle the matter. The researchers were quite cooperative and were basically in a state of "atonement" psychologically.

"Ah! With the waveguide and the dreamlike smoke, Device C can work! Although I'd like to say that..."

Makomo was a little embarrassed: "But as I said before, there are still some technical problems with the C device that haven't been solved. Although they are not the most important parts, they are still indispensable, so I need time to develop them."

"For example, how to connect the waveguide, how to make the dream smoke work in the device, these are all important research topics. Ah, but I don't need your Riolu to stay by my side all the time."

"I've got a good idea. If waveguides and the wavelengths of dreams are similar forces, then we should be able to record them with a machine."

"And now that I have the researchers' data, I can develop this device much faster!!!"

“Give me a month, no, about twenty days! I should be able to make a prototype of the C device!”

Hikari knew that it was a bit much to ask Makomo to immediately finish the C-device, since in the original work Makomo was still testing the device during the Black and White protagonists' travels. However, by then, they had reached the final step, which was to obtain the Dream Smoke.

Now, we have also obtained additional dream research data on plasma clusters, which will be of great use in the development of Device C!

"Twenty days is a bit long. Let me help you; this time can be shortened!"

At this moment, the Tree of Connection sent out a quest:

[Celebration Mission: Developer of Device C!]

[Description: Device C, developed by Makomo, is a high-tech electronic product used to collect records from various Trainers. Please help Makomo complete the development of a test version of Device C as quickly as possible. You will need to utilize almost all of your technical skills! The Tree of Connection places all its hopes on you!]

[Rewards: Released Orb x15, C-Gear Skin x5, United Stone x5, Connection Certificate x?, Released Power Registration x3, Intense Emotion x1, Instant Interweaving Power x1.]

[Note 1: Rewards will only be issued when the beta version of Device C functions properly for the first time and successfully enters both the Connected World and the Dream World! Both worlds are required! After obtaining Device C, you should be able to access the black and white underworld!]

[Note 2: Makomo will be registered as one of the users of the released power; this is necessary.]

Guang Moss: ".?"

The device hasn't even been developed yet, but the skin is already prepared!

You bastard, Tree of Connection!

And since you can access the Otherworld, shouldn't you include the Alder Kings Championship in your rewards?
"I will assist you with your development here, but since I have other things to do, I will probably only be able to help you for three days and three nights. You can completely trust my abilities; three days is enough to tackle some key technologies."

"Because there are things that must be done, the test version of Device C must be developed as soon as possible. My target is within ten days!"

With the mechanical knowledge of Team Rocket's trio, the radio signal science of Akatsuki, and the ability to decipher some of Team Plasma's technology, overcoming some problems that Makomo finds difficult should be no problem. After all, I have the power of my thinking.

If all else fails, we can just use Team Rocket's abilities to force one out. At most, we'll have to bear some risks of explosion, malfunction, instability, and loss of control!
This isn't a big problem for us super-powerful people in the capital!
"Don't worry about those Pokémon. I'll take them to Deer Town to settle them in. The Pokémon Professor's backyard is quite large, enough for them to live in."

Professor Yew said that although the back mountain of her research institute is not as big as the back mountain of Professor Oak's research institute, it is perfectly capable of taking care of some Pokémon.

After all, these Pokémon have just been abandoned by humans for the second time. Even if we take them to find their trainers, they probably won't trust those people anymore, so returning them the first time would be meaningless.

Moreover, the addition of these Pokémon will also benefit Dr. Yew's academic research. Investigating the ecology, habitat, habits, and origins of so many Pokémon is a very time-consuming task, but the results will definitely be great!

Dr. Yew: "You said you'd help Makomo with three days of device development. After that, is there anywhere else you want to go?"

She still planned to send Lightmoss to Deer Town, at least for a day, so that she could get some data about Deoxys and other Pokémon.

"Please, come to Deer Town. Although I know you may have a mission!" Dr. Yew clasped her hands together. She rarely made requests, but this time she really couldn't suppress her curiosity.

"I'm going to find Champion Ardek, fulfill my friend's wish, and take care of some other important matters. So, I'll head back to Flying Cloud first, then to Raven, and then..."

Upon arriving in Raven City, one faces a choice: whether to first go to the White Forest to search for Alder's third trail, or to go to Paradise Tower in Blowtree City to search for Alder's second trail.

In short, the final destination was Ssangyong City, where there must be a secret.

During this process, you'll also need to visit the Fantasy Bridge and Mountain Road Town to fulfill Cresselia's request, so Fukiyo City is an unavoidable stop.

"We should also check where we can find composite metals." Lightmoss asked Dr. Yew, who pondered, "Special metals, composite metals? I've never heard of such a thing, but if we're looking, perhaps Tatewake City might have some clues. It's one of Unova's industrial centers."

"There might be some in Ross Hills too, but I'm not entirely sure. Anyway, there are industrial areas there. By the way, how do you know so many strange things?"

Hikari smiled but did not answer, and Dr. Yew did not press for an answer. The two reached a tacit understanding that after the development of the device on Makomo's side was completed, they would go to Shikago Town for a day.

"Oh, that's perfect! Thank you so much!"

Looking at Dr. Yew's fervent demeanor, one might mistake her for being in love with Deoxys. Lightmoy thought to herself, "Dr. Yew is probably around twenty-two years old."

However, it's not very polite to ask a lady's age. In any case, she should be slightly younger than Ms. Zhu Lan.
However, for Chikuran, a descendant of the ancient Shin'o people, there is no need to worry about aging, since she basically looks like she is between eighteen and twenty-two years old.

And so, the development of the device began.

The various technological methods that Hikarimochi displayed amazed Makomo, who often couldn't understand how those instruments and equipment were combined and operated. To this, Hikarimochi could only say—

Mind your own business when it comes to the Rockets.

The trio's green-skinned technology, combined with the expertise of Red Sun and Plasma Group, actually looks quite impressive. Ignoring the minor risks of explosions and loss of control, it's safe to say that it offers excellent value for money!
By evening, Makomo was overjoyed. Some of the problems facing Device C had been resolved within half a day, whereas she had originally planned to spend a week solving them!

Sure enough, the time was greatly reduced!
After helping Makomo finish her work that night, Hikari took out the Dream Smoke.

This time I'm going to truly enter the dream, so it's best not to be disturbed.

Having obtained the smoke of dreams, one can enter the dream world anytime, anywhere—at least for oneself, but not for others!
Therefore, the Pokémon chosen to enter the dream this time is
Riolu!
Let the new friends meet the old ones!
A familiar pink dream enveloped me. This time, there were no nightmares or special messages from anyone. As I closed my eyes, the dream turned pink, and when I woke up again, I was in the Dream Workshop.

Riolu's surprised cry rang out from the side, and the blue-haired puppy looked incredulously at the house it was in.

Is this a dream?

Riolu blinked.

"Awoo! (Behind!)"

The moss turned around in confusion, and then...
Deoxys!
The Warrior of Light also appeared in the dream. It looked around strangely, and only when it saw the Light Moss and the blue-haired puppy appear did it come back to its senses.

Is this a dream?

"I never expected you to be here too! That's right, this is the dream world."

“I entered here through your dreams, through the mist of dreams. Before, I could only come here randomly through the symbolic stone tablets. But it will soon be stable.”

Guangtai was quite pleased that her two new companions had arrived in her dream home, so she pushed open the workshop door first.

Then a fertile field appeared before the blue-haired puppy and the Warrior of Light. Following them, they saw Calyrex with a hoe tilling the land, as well as many other Pokémon!

"Ouch!"

"Mera!"

The familiar shouts rang out, and when the workshop doors were opened, the ripples and burning insects that were resting nearby immediately noticed and rushed over—the burning insects had come from their pupae!

"It's been a long time, everyone!" Guangtai put her arm around Bodangshui's head, then put on fireproof gloves and stroked the burning insect.

However, the burning insect seemed a little unhappy as it stared at its fingertips.

It strained to tilt its head back, and then, to the astonishment of the moss, displayed its properties.

Hmm, is the current characteristic entirely due to sunlight?!
"Mera," the Burning Bug said awkwardly. Because its fiery body could easily burn its companions, and it couldn't quite master this trait, it often went to the training dungeon to wash it away.

Ah! There's one more thing!

"Aww~" Ripple licked the Glossy Moss, then made a gurgling sound, interrupting the sound of the Burning Bug, while looking down at the two Pokémon next to the Glossy Moss!

Hmm! New companions, huh!

[This is a Dragon-type Pokémon. It's so beautiful, with that crystal crown.]

"Aww!" Bo Dang Shui's eyes were very sharp, and he spotted Deoxys's core at a glance!
Hey, you're a blue crystal too!

me too!

We are dear friends and family who haven't seen each other for many years!
Oh, and that little dog is blue too!
Long live blue!

"Mera meera!" The burning worm was somewhat displeased. It protested to the rippling water, indicating that it had something important to say.

But just as it was preparing to give its speech, the Crested King floated over.

"My friend! You have finally returned to this dream world! It seems something major has happened in the Unova region recently; the Three Sword Saints and their disciples have not been seen here often! The Light Stone and Dark Stone are also frequently reacting strongly."

"The Burning Bug is well cared for by its parent, the Volcarona. That Volcarona seems to have come from the Ancient City and is related to one of the Dragon Stones. It even mentioned something about giants, which surprised me."

"By the way, the residents of Ruins Town occasionally appear here, but I've never seen Regirock and the others come in. Probably because they're Eternal Pokémon and don't need to sleep."

"Ah! That's right! We all witnessed your battle with the Creator God at the Divine Capital Ruins! We witnessed it all through the special room in the workshop. Amazing, truly remarkable!"

"Also, a strange fellow has come here, insisting on seeing you."

"Miracle!!!" She rolled around on the ground, burning with insect energy!
I also want to say something!

The disruptive ripples on the water! Annoying!
That damned Rachel Queen! I hate her!

He then pounced on the Brilliant King and began breathing fire wildly onto its large head!

"Whoa! Stop it! My crown, my big head!"
