Master Craftsman of the Elven World

Chapter 481 The Pseudo-Dragon Treasure Master! It said, "We can go now!" (Seeking monthly votes at the beginning of the month!)

Besides that, there was another thing that caught Guangmo's attention.

Tanjiro's last attack, the Sun Beam, didn't seem to have the right power.

Although the power of a move can be enhanced by various forms of energy, its base power is its base power, its actual combat power is its actual combat power, and it is also affected by various factors that enhance abilities.

However, a special notification appeared after that solar beam attack.

[Tan-chan is radiating intense light.]

[Under the influence of Prism Star.]

[Tanuki has learned "Sunbeam* (Base Power 200)"!]

A solar beam with a base power of 200?!
This version of the Sunbeam only appeared in one game content!
That is, Let's Go! Pikachu / Let's Go! Eevee.

This version of the game adds some special character settings, changes the characters who initially travel in the Kanto region, and adds some rather outrageous partner moves.

Besides that.
The absorption power has been increased from 20 to 40.

The power of Super Drain has been increased from 40 to 75.

The priority of teleportation has been reduced from 0 to -6.

The power of Divine Bird Strike has been increased from 140 to 200!

Finally, that's it.
The power of the solar beam has been increased from 120 to 200!

"The Sun Beam is a move that can be learned during the Crimson Knights era, so it's normal for Tanjiro to learn it ahead of time."

"But the 200-power version of the Sunbeam is not a normal Sunbeam."

"Is it a true, blazing sun-like flame, created by incorporating fire and true energy?"

"A special solar beam emitted by the Prism Star!"

If we had to come up with a name, would "Sunshine Blaze" be the most accurate translation?
However, if it were called the Blazing Light, the Spear of Sunlight, or the Ancient Wonder, etc.
That's not wrong, after all, Solar Beam was always considered a trump card move in the original animated series, and its power of 120 did indeed make it stand out from the crowd.

As a remake of "FireRed and LeafGreen", doesn't "Peel Off the Skin" deserve the title of "the oldest wonder" with its 200-power solar flame?

"Well, if we really have to come up with a translation, the unofficial common names for solar beams, such as [Sunlight Ray] and [Empty Electron], are also options!"

Guangtai glanced at Tan Xiaoshi, who was munching on tree fruit.

The little knight is replenishing his energy!
Samoyed is a Pokémon that likes to eat berries with high oil content, which makes its flames burn even more fiercely!

"Here, this is the medal for defeating the last Calamity Treasure!"

"You are awarded the medal for defeating the Ancient Cauldron Deer!"

Lightmoss bestows the medal upon the hero. At this moment, the tattered armor on Charcoal Servant's body, which has been reforged several times, seems to be faintly glowing.

Intense superpowers, along with merit and emotion, are woven into this unassuming piece of junk armor!

"Your own celebratory armor is about to be born."

Looking at the excited Tanjiro, Hikari murmured to herself with a hint of anticipation:
"What changes will you undergo after evolving? You won't just remain a regular Crimson Armor Knight, will you?"

Leihe's voice came from the side:
"What have you been muttering about since the beginning? Are you reflecting on the previous battle? I think that's quite impressive."

The tomb raider closed her notebook; she had just been recording information about the ancient dinglu (a type of ancient Chinese cooking vessel).

Although the treasure of calamity could not be used by her.

But at least she witnessed all four of them together and recorded their ecological capabilities.

"Hatred, jealousy, resentment, fear—these are the powers possessed by the four cursed treasures!"

"If these treasures were sold from Eastern countries, could four more calamity beasts be born again by reforging them and using the same emotions?"

"How interesting. The mystery of the legend has been solved, but new mysteries have been created. What do you think, legendary craftsman?"

"It should be fine." Guangtai thought for a moment:
"I have understood the principles of forging and carving these treasures. Swords and tripods require superb craftsmanship and materials, jade requires carving, and bamboo slips are the easiest to obtain."

"The wooden board that replaced paper was actually a treasure because it contained valuable teachings."

"Hmm, what if we create another batch of calamity beasts and turn them into different colors?"

"Of course, the treasures that are reforged are auspicious objects. Perhaps they can be created using positive emotions instead of negative ones."

"Isn't Dewdrop a good example? It's a Pokémon born from the passion that seeps into a coin. Although it also represents human greed, it's mostly positive emotions overall."

Leihe's eyes flickered slightly.

"Your idea is quite good."

"Uh, and I'm thinking too."

"Although four treasures turned into Pokémon and caused havoc, becoming treasures of calamity that have been passed down for thousands of years."

"But could there be other similar things that just haven't yet turned into treasures of disaster?"

"The merchant disappeared at the end of the story, the merchant who brought the treasure and then left. Did he leave the same thing in other countries?"

Leihe's guess seems to make some sense?
The Four Calamities of Light?

Lightmoss took out Aegislash's Poké Ball:
"Aegislash, what do you think?"

"Give (do you mean)?"

Aegislash was completely bewildered inside the Poké Ball.

Does that mean I'm not the cheapest, and there are even cheaper ones?

After all, it caused the destruction of a country. As everyone knows, second-hand goods that have been damaged in an accident are usually sold at a discount!
The shimmering waters of Lake Daguo are filled with Pokémon blowing bubbles in their deep blue depths.

Lightmoss, Bud, and even the snail were discussing other treasures.

The leopard and the old deer fought each other.

The other guys were all eating like crazy.

The ancient jade fish floated leisurely and slowly to the edge of the Big Pot Lake. Looking at the vast lake, it imagined that if this place were a volcanic lava sea, it could play to its heart's content.

Even if I create a sea of ​​lava, all I can do is...
Blowing bubbles.

Bubble blinked its big eyes.

Suddenly, I stared at a "fish" that was also red for a while.

The fish's body was arched upwards, looking very arrogant. After staring at Bubble for a while, it suddenly swung its tail at him!

Hey!

Gu Yuyu was a little confused, but he quickly realized what was happening!
Are you going to play a game of tail-wagging?
"Clap clap clap-"

"What's that sound?" Guangtai, Leihe, and Xiaowo, who had joined the discussion, all looked towards the edge of the big pot lake.

The Ancient Jade Fish was slapping another red, fish-like Pokémon as it flicked its tail!
Bubble used a series of slaps (×) – an eye for an eye!
After being hit, the Pokémon on the other side became even angrier, and its arched body began to bend forcefully, turning into an upward-opening C-shape!
"Ah, what's that Pokémon?"

Leihe pushed up her glasses: "I think I vaguely remember it. Is it called Mileron or something? It's similar to sushi."

"Oh dear, the scholars in this area have all gone to study the Taijing, so they're quite vague about ecological matters. Besides, I'm not a biologist!"

Lightmoy: "Milkyr has three forms. It's a very rare Dragon/Water type Pokémon, or perhaps a Water/Dragon?"

The prefix of the attribute indicates the Pokémon's unique characteristics.

"Before us is Mililong Daguo Lake in an arched stance, arched stance."

Lightmoss suddenly realized something, and Reiho stepped forward and waved her hand: "They're actually slapping each other's tails at each other with the Calamity Orb! Hey, how can you compete with a legendary Pokémon? Even if you have a type advantage, from a strength perspective, you're still..."

The Milion heard Leihe's mockery. It glared angrily at Leihe, then glanced at the ancient jade fish that was blowing bubbles!

then--

"puff!"

A weak stream of water splashed directly onto Bubble, leaving the Jade Fish blinking, bewildered.

"That's it!" Guangtai's eyes narrowed, and he strode over!

Then, the water in Daguo Lake suddenly boiled and surged, and huge waves climbed and converged upwards, like a waterfall mountain formed by flowing water!

A gigantic blue fish Pokémon appeared, roaring like a whale in a lake!
Its tongue extended, and like a giant cutting board, it swallowed the sushi-shaped Milion whole!
Leihe: "What's going on? The food chain?!"

"Bubble, Jade of Calamity, come back quickly! It looks like it's going to eat you!" Leihe was startled!
Is there even a giant whale-like Pokémon in this giant cauldron lake?!
There are no similar reports in ecological surveys!

So, what's this guy planning to do? Is he going to fight the Jade of Calamity, or is he going to devour an ancient treasure?
But was that really a food chain?!

After the giant blue whale swallowed Mililong, a powerful aura surged from its body, and towering waves began to rise in the lake, as if it had become the ruler of Daguo Lake!
Lightmoss: "The move I just used was 'Water Soak,' which involves splashing a large amount of water onto the opponent, turning them into a Water-type move. Although the same effect can be achieved through fire pipes."

"In other words, the ancient jade fish now has only one attribute: water!"

"The power of Fire and Dark attribute moves will be converted to non-attribute types!"

"And what about this guy in front of us? Is he lucky or unlucky?"

Guangtai explained to Leihe, "According to the Alliance's investigation, something is lurking somewhere in the vast Daguo Lake."

"Although its appearance and ecology are unknown, it is said to lure and prey on other creatures with its enormous mouth. So you shouldn't go looking for it."

"That thing's name is... [Pseudo-Dragon Treasure Master]! If I'm not mistaken, it also guards the legendary secret seasoning, which should be [Spicy Seasoning]!"

"The enormous, whale-like creature before us, together with that Milion dragon, forms the complete pseudo-dragon treasure. They are not a true food chain, but a pseudo-food chain."

When this guy first appeared, it was all very ceremonial; anyone who didn't know better would have thought Kyogre had appeared in a magical form.

"Milkyr is an extremely cunning and treacherous Pokémon. It will feign weakness to lure its prey closer, then have its own Pokémon attack. It usually feeds on certain bird Pokémon. Even among dragon Pokémon, its intelligence is among the highest. It can inflate its throat pouch to mimic the appearance of sushi."

"This whale-like Pokémon is scientifically known as Garuda. Strictly speaking, it is a catfish-like creature. Although it has a huge appetite, it is not very good at hunting. It will team up with Mille-o'-L to catch its prey."

Reiho looked surprised: "Catfish? You must be kidding me. I've never seen such a big catfish Pokémon before!"

The biology of Pokémon is still too advanced.

After all, Reho was just a history teacher who raided tombs, lacking the wisdom and knowledge of biology teacher Ginja.

Leihe: "Are they treating the bubbles as prey?"

"Sigh~" Bubble felt wet. Although the flame dried the moisture, he still felt weak all over.

The [Pseudo-Dragon Master] in front of them had already opened its blood-red maw, seemingly about to swallow Bubble whole!
Move: Crunch!

"Oh!"

Bubble was bitten by the Roaring Boss's big mouth, but it still moved very slowly.

Haha, how did you manage to turn a simple tail flick into this mess?

"Gu Yu (anxious)."

Leihe: "Hey, you're going to get eaten!"

Bubble: "Gu Yu~"

Leihe: "What did it say?"

Light Moss: "Bubble said it's not in a hurry."

Lightmoss: "Even if you eat it, you can't digest it. Bubble's true form is the Jade of Calamity. Its goldfish-like body is just a mimicry!"

[Legendary artifact: Jade of Calamity [Jade Disc]]

[Description: This legendary jade was once a ritual object in an ancient region of the East. Having absorbed too much malice and greed, and subjected to the jealousy of those who believe "a common man is innocent, but possessing a treasure is a crime," it has become an evil jade that brings misfortune.]

[Effect: Pokémon that stay near the Ancient Jade will have their Special Defense reduced. The Ancient Jade is the original form of the Ancient Jade Fish and cannot be used on other Pokémon.]

[The hooked jade is something that carries the power and soul of the gods, and the jade fish is a symbol of divinity. In a certain ancient Eastern region, it was regarded as a treasure to be buried with the dead, representing something precious. And this is precisely the root cause of the disasters caused by ancient jade fish.]

Hmm, goldfish vs. catfish?
"Although changing to water attribute means losing the power boost from fire attribute, but—"

Anyway, Milion and Roaring Tyrant have four times the fire resistance and two times the fire resistance, respectively. We can let go of the fire attribute for now!

The pseudo-Dragon starter is at a very high level. Among the five starter Pokémon, it is the strongest Pokémon, with a level of 56/57!

Moreover, the Roaring Beast has 150 HP and 115 physical defense, making it a super tanky water-type creature. When you see this thing in battle, you know it's going to use Earth Shatter as its starting move!
As for Milliton, although it claims to be a weak Pokémon, its Special Attack is 120!
The distribution of Pokémon in the later generations is getting better and better, and their power is expanding to an insane level. Even a roadside sushi stall in a big pot of water has 120 Special Attack.
It's amazing that Parthians can be ambushed with sushi when they go out!

"Bubble, aren't you ready yet? Use the smoke!"

The Ancient Jade Fish Bubble is a slow-moving type; even in battle, it takes quite a while to warm up, at which point the magatama on its eyes will glow.

So, now is the time!

"Oh!"

No rush, no rush, let the ancient jade fish be in a hurry!
Whoosh! Intense flames and smoke erupted from the bubble's body!

"Cough cough!"

It spews smoke, attacking all Pokémon around it with raging flames and intense, hot smoke. There's a 30% chance it will inflict a burn!
A rainbow rises!
Battle Rainbow: Doubles the additional effects!
"Ba!"

While Groudon does provide fire resistance, smoke is a physiological attack. Any living creature will feel pain and discomfort. Unless it's a Mega Beast, any Pokémon would lose its appetite if smoke was exhaled into its mouth!
"Shut up!"

Bubble successfully escaped from the mouth of the Roaring King, but along with it jumped out Mililong, who couldn't stand the stench!

It was originally meant to combine with the Roaring Beast to achieve a fighting style similar to "piloting a Titan mech," which is the same ecological niche as a mech pilot. However, now that the cockpit is smoked out, it can no longer stay there!

"Perfect opportunity! Use [Great Catastrophe] on the Roaring Boss!"

It triggers a devastating calamity, halving the opponent's HP. Ignores other elemental advantages and disadvantages, and elemental matchups!
Faced with such a massive tank, a single cataclysmic attack can halve its stamina!

Bubble's eyes gleamed with intense heat, and a fierce jealousy surged through her body! She gracefully flicked her tail in the air!
What are you jealous of?

I'm just jealous that you have high HP, high attack, and eat a lot!
Don't underestimate me just because I'm small! I can take a lot of damage during major disasters!
The giant catfish let out a mournful cry. The disaster caused it to lose health at a fixed rate, ignoring the difference in strength, and it crashed back into the cauldron lake with a thud, creating a huge wave!
Mi Lilong, choked by the thick smoke, snot and tears streaming down his face, bounced around on the shore, while Bubble seized the opportunity—

Heave-ho! Little Goldfish Flying Kick!

Move: Jump, the only flying-type move that Ancient Jade Fish can learn. Like Whale, it leaps high into the air and then slaps the opponent, with a 30% chance of paralyzing the opponent. In Rainbow State, the probability doubles to 60%!

Bang!

Bubble's tail slammed into Mildred's head, causing the latter to spin around and become dizzy, falling into a state of paralysis!
At this moment, the Roaring Tyrant, which had been reduced to half health, seemed unwilling to give up and once again dived out of the lake!
However, something was wrong with its appearance; it was emitting thick white smoke, as if it had been steamed or roasted!
I'm under the burning status, and my physical attack has been halved!
Lightmoss sensed the energy of the item on her chest:
"Hmm, the Prism Star is twinkling. Could Bubble learn new moves after being changed to the Water attribute by [Soaking]?"

Give it a try, at the cost of 1% attack chance! Light, converge!

"Prism Star is saying—it's saying, it's time to go!"

Since it's a fish, why does it only know Fire and Dark-type moves? It should at least learn one Water move!

Now the opportunity has arrived!
[The ancient jade fish bubble has learned how to use "hot water"!]

[The ancient jade fish bubble has learned the field condition – "Sea of ​​Fire"!]

The fire attribute of the ancient jade fish has been restored!

"The number of illegal moves has increased, so let's begin immediately—use hot water on Milion!"

Attack your opponent by spraying boiling water. There is a 30% chance to inflict a burn!
Just as Mi Lilong was feeling dizzy, he suddenly saw the little fire fish gather water energy and spew out a stream of scorching water, which made Mi Lilong cry out in pain!
It's so hot! So hot! So hot!
It's going to turn into boiled fish sushi!
"Next step! Summon pillars of fire to melt the surrounding life energy and unleash a [Sea of ​​Fire]!"

The magatama, which had once sparked countless battles, gathered jealousy, which entwined with flames and transformed into an ancient jade fish.

It can manipulate 3000-degree flames to melt rocks and gravel to create a lava sea, where it swims leisurely.

Lightmoss: "I've learned to unleash the Sea of ​​Fire on my own. That's more in line with Bubble's character design. Although, theoretically, the Sea of ​​Fire isn't an independent status move, but rather a combined additional status that requires both the [Oath of Fire] and the [Oath of Grass] to activate."

"For 4 turns, the opponent's field becomes a sea of ​​fire, and Pokémon other than Fire-type Pokémon lose one-eighth of their maximum HP each turn!"

However, the restrictions on Pledge moves are still too great. Only certain Pokémon can use them, namely the "starter Pokémon," and they must be used in pairs.

There are three possible states that can be achieved with Oath moves.

That's wetlands, a sea of ​​fire, and rainbows!
"Then, based on that..."

"Fire Vortex!"

Deals damage to the target. Inflicts a binding effect on the target caused by a vortex of fire!
The bound state lasts for 4-5 rounds, and the Pokémon loses a fixed one-eighth of its HP. While bound, the Pokémon will continuously take damage and cannot escape!

A raging sea of ​​fire covered the surface of Lake Daguo, and Bubbles' jade eyes emitted a strong, scorching golden light, blowing the sea of ​​fire toward Mililong and Chihouba!

Trapped in a raging inferno! No rush, let the fire roast you for a while!
"Sashimi sushi? No, it's too cold. It would give me an upset stomach."

Guangtai looked at the enthusiastic Leihe: "The grilled rice balls are cooked to perfection. Sprinkle some chili sauce on top, and pair them with grilled fish. How about that?"

Leihe twitched the corners of her mouth and looked towards the vicinity of Daguo Lake.

A strong fishy aroma was already wafting out, but that didn't mean the sea of ​​fire had actually burned a bunch of fish Pokémon to death; that was impossible.

This is because the battle here terrified the nearby light-bodied cod, who all used "Flesh Throw" to throw off their excess fat in an attempt to escape the Roaring Tyrant's attack, but they didn't expect...
This giant catfish was easily and ultimately insulted, so the lake was littered with leftover food!
