Master Craftsman of the Elven World

Chapter 614 Galar and King Arthur, the Holy Grail War and the Dark Soul!
"To get around the vast city of Gongmen, please use Gongmen's dedicated flying taxis or monorail."

"Look, isn't Palace City magnificent? Long ago, it was just a small town, and I transformed it into this. It has become the largest and most prosperous city in all of Galar."

"It's just as good as Miare City!"

President Loz and Guangtai officially began their discussions at the Lundurose Hotel, the largest hotel in Gongmen City.

However, after all, Loz is a very famous person. As the president of the Galar Alliance, his schedule is very full every day. He is constantly working and working, and at the same time, he has to deal with interviews from reporters from all over Galar.

Therefore, at this time, the roles of the secretary and Olive, the vice president of the Marocomón Group, became apparent.

The aloof young lady caused the staff to block the reporters outside, while the conversation between Chairman Loz and the strangers aroused their curiosity, making them believe that this was definitely a new sensational headline.

Guangtai: "The reporters here are really like Carlos's reporters, especially in their behavior."

"You mean they always like to approach celebrities and conduct interviews without their permission?" President Lorz fiddled with his hair. "That's what commercialization is all about. If they can't get juicy news, they'll lose their jobs, won't they?"

"So, occasionally we should let these reporters see the appearance of celebrities, so that they can feel warmth and get some news that can interest the public. That's the kind of warm-hearted and benevolent person I am."

"But rest assured, no one else will hear what is happening here, except for those who are absolutely necessary."

"I believe in the principle that action is justice, and therefore I often make decisions without explanation. So I don't think I've done anything bad so far. What makes you, one of the Four Heavenly Kings from other regions, question me in this way?"

Lightmoss: "You have [crystal] on you."

Loz: "."

The president's nonchalant expression turned slightly serious.

The business cooperation with Angel Company should be unknown to everyone else. Could it be that the alliance in the Padia region also has a business cooperation agreement with Angel Company in energy development or other machinery manufacturing?
But even so, how do you explain the matter of the [crystal]?

A voice faintly echoed in Loz's mind.
Do not answer.

However, the voice was so faint that Loz thought he had just received some kind of psychological suggestion and shook his head slightly.

Is there anything I can't say?

What puzzled him was how the Four Heavenly Kings knew about the "fragments" that had been disassembled from the machine.

Moreover, are those pitch-black "shards" the "crystal" that President Black mentioned?

This, on the contrary, immediately boosted Lorz's spirits and piqued his interest.

“Please elaborate.” Loz smiled, sensing that this thing might be related to energy.

Guangtai also looked at Lorz with the same puzzlement: "Today is the opening ceremony, and tomorrow is the main event. So, let's not waste each other's time. You have a busy schedule, and I also want to see which players will appear in the opening match."

Loz chuckled, "That's true. But we still need to wait for someone here; she should be here soon."

"My work is very busy, but I can squeeze out a lot of time if I want to, since some work can be turned down in the face of higher-level talks."

"Well then, I'll listen attentively until that lady arrives, even though these words are probably unrelated to the Legend of Galar."

Guangtai: "Do you have some kind of deal with [Angel Company], or rather [Anhenu Company]?"

Loz: "This information... how should I put it? I wanted to deny it, but you seem to have read my mind."

His tone gradually softened, and I could see a certainty in the light moss's eyes, coupled with the sudden blue flash that had appeared earlier.

Well.

President Lorz pondered for a moment.

While it's true that it doesn't matter who helps in achieving one's ideals, does Angel Company have some kind of shady dealings?

Lorz couldn't help but joke: "Could it be tax evasion? Our company is a legitimate business!"

“However,” he changed the subject, “although this is our first time working with that company, it is a large corporation with a considerable reputation in the world, operating in the oil and energy sector, and it seems to have a history of 70, or rather 69 years.”

"From a historical perspective alone, the Marocomón Group is still a relatively new company compared to Angel Company."

"Speaking of energy development, our company's energy utilization rate is no lower than that of Devon Corporation and the Space Development Corporation, as well as other companies, such as the Ether Foundation. However, these companies keep their technologies strictly confidential, which is really a pity for me."

Guangtai nodded: "After all, the president of Angel Company has three generations, while you, Chairman Loz, have only one generation. Moreover, as the president of the group, you and the first president of Angel Company are both self-made people who have devoted yourselves to the development of Galar. This is very admirable."

Loz smiled sincerely: "You flatter me. I have only made a small contribution to the development of Galar."

Being praised by the strong and being flattered by the weak are two completely different feelings!
At this moment, it was as if all the hard work of the past had been recognized, which quickly made Chairman Loz's mood cheerful.

Loz stroked his chin: "However, business cooperation is normal. Do you know our corporate secrets? As far as I know, there is also a giant corporation in the Padia region, and like us, it has ties to the Pokémon League."

"Or are you, as a business representative, trying to get involved after spying on the company's transaction records? Haha, I don't care, but President Black will probably be very unhappy."

Hikari: "That President Black, his name should be Black Hall, right?"

"Angel Corporation in the Almia region is a huge enterprise and oligopoly in the oil and energy sector. In recent years, they seem to have plans to transform and rebuild the Almia region, especially for the port town of Puer, the gateway and center of Almia, which has a plan for urban redevelopment."

"However, because the development plan is somewhat forceful, it seems that some local residents are opposed to it."

They're talking about "urban redevelopment."

It is also a central city in the region.

There is also a tall tower under construction on the side.

It also has a machine for discharging electricity.

The development plan is led by a large company.

If it weren't for the fact that it's called Harbor Town (Puer Town), people who didn't know better would think they were in Miare City!

Come to think of it, this kind of idea appeared in a side work many years ago.

These excellent inspirations and plot motifs are common in previous works and are constantly being reborn in subsequent generations.

Lotz: "Oh dear, how can you force something as big as demolishing a town? I've dealt with that president before, and I can tell he's the kind of person who's a bit tough. Large corporations should appease the community and fulfill their corporate responsibilities."

"Hearing you talk about this part really piques my curiosity and brings back long-forgotten memories of the construction of Gongmen City."

Lightmoy: "The reason that plan was launched was because Angel Corporation found something that could be called 'Infinite Dream Energy'."

Lorz's gaze suddenly sharpened!

As the saying goes, the most important thing in business negotiations is to grasp the hearts of the participants and strike at their weakest and most desired places!
"Interesting! That president did indeed tell me about 'For the bright future of Galar and Almia'! He also mentioned the development of 'Dream Energy'! But to learn such explosive news from here is quite surprising."

The technology of exchange is there to complete the final piece of the puzzle! Perhaps they, like us, have found something that can be used as an energy source.
However, President Loz became confused again.

Angel Company is an oil mining company, so it only sells oil. Unlike the Marocomon Group, which also has mining, gas, wind, and hydropower projects, Angel Company has never been known to have any special minerals or wishing stars in the Almia region.

So, this is a company secret?
Loz: "Oh dear, you've given me this information for nothing! Given your status as one of the Four Heavenly Kings of Padia, you probably wouldn't speak without reason. Hmm, energy is a very important thing. Since we have something as precious as [Infinite Energy], I think we should deepen our cooperation with Angel Company."

"Although I have already begun to cooperate with them in depth."

That's right, some fragments have already been fed to [that guy], and his strength has increased significantly after being fed!
All that he kept for himself were one or two pieces for analysis.

After all, both sides were using each other's ideas to exchange technology and cooperate. Regardless of what Black Hall's intentions were, at least what he provided had a significant effect on the revival of Dark Night!

"So, what kind of reward do you want? You can name any terms. As the president of the Galar Alliance, I won't accept this information for nothing."

Lightmoy shook her head: "No reward is needed. I know that something like unlimited energy is very attractive to you, President Loz, and you're not the kind of person who will listen to advice. However, I'm just leaving you with a warning."

"You mean you've already engaged in in-depth cooperation with them?"

“That’s right.” Chairman Loz shrugged. “The specific details are confidential in business cooperation, so I can only say that I have no comment.”

problem occurs.

Guangtai thought to herself, and judging from Chairman Luo's expression...
Could this CEO have fed the fragments of the Dark Crystal to Mugentana?

"Don't eat everything, or you'll get a stomach upset."

The moss could only sigh:

"The infinite energy that Angel Corporation is developing is the original fragment of the stone you're carrying. Moreover, the infinite energy is actually fake."

“That’s a very dangerous thing, President Loz. You’d better not think about doing anything with it. If it’s convenient, my only condition is that I want to know how you got this fragment, but I don’t think you’ll tell me.”

Loz nodded: "In that respect, I regret to inform you."

"From this perspective, you don't seem to be the kind of corporate spy who knows everything. It seems our confidential call wasn't leaked."

Guangtai: "Of course, no one has eavesdropped on your communications with President Blake. As the head of a large company, you should have some confidence in your confidential projects."

"I know this for other reasons."

“If I don’t tell you, you won’t understand how terrible this thing is. If I do tell you, you’ll go crazy and crave it. But either way, I think it’s better to say it than not to say it.”

"Let me repeat the warning. The Dark Crystal can cloud people's minds, making them crazy and irrational. It is an extremely dangerous thing. If you are exposed to it for too long, you will fall into a nightmare from which you cannot wake up."

"That thing resonates with the user's inner thoughts; if you make a wish to it, the wish will be fulfilled in a distorted form."

"Over the past 3000 years, that crystal absorbed the endless darkness and negative emotions in the hearts of people around the world, becoming what it is now and polluting the earth."

"It's very similar to the [Dark Night] you're pursuing, isn't it? You can't hold onto this thing."

Although it is the source of power for the side story region, its status and the setting of summoning darkness are very similar to Mugentana. Furthermore, the setting of gathering darkness in people's hearts corresponds to the dark matter, the ultimate boss of the dungeon world.

It's hard to imagine that the King of Almia could have come up with something like this, because as a spin-off, the Ranger series is almost impossible to replicate. Therefore, it remains inexplicable why the King of Almia obtained the Dark Lord Soul and became like that.

President Loz's expression immediately turned serious, but he quickly shrugged.

"The Dark Night is just an interesting legend. I, Loz, am just interested in the legends of Galar, just like the legend of the Wishing Star. It was based on this legend that we developed the Max Bracers and used the Power Point Detector created by Dr. Magnolia to find the various places with Power Points."

"Galar, therefore, is reborn!"

"The Wishing Star is just like the Peace Star!"

"So, perhaps we can find some new energy sources and technologies in the legends of the Dark Night. We have always been committed to improving the living standards of the people of Galar and striving to become number one in the world. Is there anything wrong with that?"

"It should be said that it was a very peaceful prayer and action."

Lightmoss: "You now reign like a king over the land of Galar." "And the Dark Crystal once belonged to a king as well."

Dragon Quest Galar has all the elements of a king, a hero, and a dragon.

But is President Rose a king or a demon king?

For a king, this was somewhat too willful.

As a demon king, he wasn't thorough enough in causing trouble.

President Loz hesitated for a moment, then answered with a serious expression:

"My king, there is no king in Galar. Please do not use past titles to describe me. Compared to the greedy [royal family], as the leader of the alliance, I can say this without any shame."

"I dedicate myself wholeheartedly to Galar."

Lightmoy: "So, you've already received sponsorship from the [Royal Family], the so-called [Reclusive Celebrities], the people who claim to be descendants of the Sword and Shield Heroes. The Hisoka Duo?"

Loz: "I accidentally revealed some strange information. But it's all irrelevant. The so-called royal family of Galar has not yet been confirmed. In my opinion, they are just some weird people who have been driven mad by legends."

"You actually know about that kind of person?"

“When I was young, there were still many people like that in Galar, which can be described as a remnant of ancient society.”

Of course, I was not misled by the legend. It was through practical investigation and verification that I arrived at the current answer!

"But through dialogue."

“I can sense it.”

"You're just like some of the people I've met before."

President Lorze closed his eyes and let out a regretful sigh:
“You don’t understand at all. You don’t understand my worries and urgency, and why I’m so kind and compassionate. If you were willing to join the Marocmont Group, I might share this with you in detail, but not now.”

Although Chairman Loz has not yet told Dante about the energy depletion.

But considering the shift from their initial enthusiastic collaboration to their later indifference, it's possible that Chairman Loz might have hinted at something similar to Dr. Mulan.

President Loz:

"Therefore, let's leave it at that regarding Armia."

“I already know enough information. This is amazing content. Thank you so much for the information; I will make good use of it.”

"However, there is nothing to be afraid of in the ancient world. Even if the Dark Soul from 3000 years ago were to be resurrected, we would have nothing to fear."

"Moreover, this kind of thing is no different from a fairy tale. If you want me to believe it, I have to investigate and verify it carefully. Words are not enough."

"I will not be swayed by a tiny crystal."

"Just like my creed."

"My heart and my actions are as clear as a mirror."

"Everything we do is for justice!"

This interesting statement, especially the latter part, seems to echo the content of a certain character, and it was actually written on Loz's League Card.

[His motto is "action equals justice," leading him to make decisions without explanation. Despite mixed reviews, the Marocomón Group's current size and influence are a direct result of his autocratic rule. — Text drafted by his secretary.]

[To solve Galar's energy problem, he once launched a solo investigation into the Dark Night, which is said to have caused a cataclysmic change in the ancient world.] Even this part is included, but players who never read Alliance Cards might think that Guild Master Loz is like the Riddler throughout the entire process.

Guangtai thought that although Chairman Luoz knew that companies like Devon Corporation, which develop energy, had unique skills, he did not know what kind of energy those companies used.

Of course, if President Loz were to obtain such a useful thing as life energy, he would definitely make great use of it.

Moreover, when it comes to sending out industrial spies, the Marocomón Group is a master.

After all, they infiltrated the Aether Foundation, stole the data on the Void, and even created a new Void.

President Loz's goal was to have the Attribute Void provide endless energy, and he actually managed to investigate this part of the information.

Is this the Pokémon League?
Isn't this Assassin's Creed Galar?

I really don't know whether to say that Devon Corporation's security technology is good or that the Ethereum Foundation's security technology is too bad!
Furthermore, would they rather travel all the way to Alola to gather intelligence than go to neighboring Carlos to steal the blueprints for the ultimate weapon? Perhaps they're worried about causing a diplomatic incident.

Although three thousand years later, some people still harbor hatred towards each other, in formal occasions and under normal circumstances, the people of both sides do not care about the legends of their homeland. In the Pokémon world, forgetting and historical gaps seem to be commonplace.

After all, it's to fill the blank 3000 years with more historical events.

A story must contain mythology and history to be considered complete and substantial, even if it is only mentioned in a few words.

Lightmoy: "I had already anticipated your answer."

We can't exactly beat up President Rose here, that would turn into—

[Shocking! The Patia Elite Four member and the newly crowned Unova Champion attacked the Galar League Chairman! His true identity is revealed to be a terrorist! International police have announced a separation! Professor Juniper and Professor Yamanashi are deeply saddened by this incident. We will be interviewing the Champions of Unova, Patia, Hoenn, and Sinnoh to get their perspectives on this matter—]

Given the style of the Galatian media, they'll definitely embellish it, writing a lengthy piece like that, making it impossible to clear their name even if they jumped into the Rhine. It will directly become the front page headline in various regions.

They can't just suddenly roar and turn the magnetic field ninety-nine times, defeating the whole world all by themselves.

Lightmoy: "Therefore, let's do some preparation. If you feel unwell later, just silently recite this... consider it a spell."

“Awaken the light buried in darkness, Vatona Bart and Nage Nagi, this is the [Surge of Wind], also known as [Fusion].

Guild Master Loz was unimpressed, but rather intrigued by the spell's structure: "It sounds like something a witch like Popura would say! In short, it fits the traditional atmosphere of the Galar region perfectly."

Guangtai: "Besides that, I have another question, which is unrelated to business. Can you answer it?"

Lorz: "Of course! As long as it's not classified, I'll tell you everything I know!"

Lightmoy: "Did you know about the Leonid meteor shower in November, and the return of the millennial comet?"

Loz: "I know very well, because the number of wishing stars in Galar is constantly increasing, as if they are falling all over the sky to fulfill people's wishes!"

"Twelve years ago, the same constellation, the same meteor shower, and the same rare astronomical phenomenon led to Galar's rapid rise and its current prosperity. Therefore, I am still collecting wishing stars in large quantities, as I need their energy to convert into electricity."

"And twelve years later, once again, meteors unexpectedly arrived. It turned out that this was brought by the millennial comet! So, it also means that no new stars will fall to the ground until the next millennium."

"The cycle of a great comet is one thousand years, my friend!"

"A person's life is only a hundred years long. How lucky it is to be able to see two meteor showers brought back by a comet that occurs every thousand years! How many generations must go through life and death in a thousand years to bring seven nights of light!"

"Time flies, and opportunities vanish just like that. Must we do nothing and simply let this millennium pass by? I've waited my whole life, the last twelve years, and now this twelve years! But there will never be another twelve years!"

"I want to seize this opportunity."

"I think this is the answer you wanted, right?"

Lightmoss nodded.

A star is born.

The stars went out.

It has been exactly one millennium.

The Dark Night's recovery progress bar has increased dramatically, but this was expected. I had already anticipated it while we were in space.

After all, the Millennium Comet brought back far too much, affecting not just the Hoenn region, but the entire world. This applies to old regions, new regions, and even those areas where the fog of war has not yet been lifted.

Moreover, even Liushi has come; the power of the Star Voice is irresistible.

Light Moss: "The wind that shines upon the world will blow here."

"Hopefully, that strong wind won't come."

Because the systems cannot coexist, Mega Evolution, Z-Moves, Crystallize, and Dynamax—the four major systems—all originated from StarCraft.

Therefore, only one change can exist at any given time, and that is the case at present.

A Mega Evolution Rayquaza carrying a Crystal Stone, versus a Gigantamax Eternatus?

Even if you consume the entire Dark Crystal and expand its influence to Carlos, it's nothing to fear!
The influence of the Dark Crystal, under the influence of the Angel Tower created by the Angel Company, can extend to an area of ​​more than 800 kilometers in radius. When its power is raised to the hidden fourth level, it can cover the entire territory of Almia!

It's an extremely powerful thing; it's the manifestation of the king's dark soul!

If combined with the Dark Night, it would truly be a re-enactment of a lost activity from 3000 years ago.

Moreover, just as I know.

The Dark Crystal's "Twisted Wish" function erodes people's hearts, prompting them to act towards the consequences of their distorted desires.

This thing is practically the Holy Grail!

Lightmoss thought to herself:

"Galar, England, King Uther, King Arthur, Sword and Shield Hero, the Great Red Dragon, Lucifer, the Crystal, the Dark Grail, and the Dark Soul that corrupts humanity."

A glimpse of dark crystal.

The assessment concluded that he was inhuman.

"Is this a Lostbelt that has merged with the Dark Souls world?"

"Could it be that seven heroes, led by King Arthur, will appear here at the same time to seize the Dark Crystal, which is the Holy Grail?"

"Then, without a doubt, the one who has a long-standing feud with the Black Grail and represents the role of the [King], aside from Loth, is the Rachelon King!"

"Class: [Rider] (Cavalry)!"

Heroic Spirits with legends linking them to certain mounts (not limited to living beings) are eligible for this class. Although their stats tend to be lower than the Three Knights, this is compensated for by the performance of the legendary mounts they are said to ride!

Snow spear shatters, Noble Phantasm unleashed!
Grade: A++
Type: Anti-Army Noble Phantasm!
Noble Phantasm attack range: 1~99 (all enemy Pokémon that can be attacked)!
Maximum Capture: 1000 people! (Creates countless will-o'-the-wisps/ice pillars, which then rain down on the opponent like a meteor shower/ice pillar spear!)
A fully recovered Big Head King should at least be a Grand Servant!

As for himself, his best partner is Aegislash. Furthermore, Aegislash's design prototype also has...
"Could it be that I am Saber? No, Merlin?"

This truly happens only once every few decades or even a thousand years. The energy in the ley lines of Gongmen City will accumulate to a level sufficient to support the descent of the Dark Vortex, and thus, the Dark Night (+Dark Crystal), with the power to grant any wish instantly, will appear in Gongmen City!
