Chapter 53: The Settlement of the First Battle Round!

They arrived at the medical room amidst cheers and applause.

Xia Chi handed Tiremy's Poké Ball to the nurse, who said with great admiration, "What a wonderful match! Congratulations, Xia Chi, champion!"

So this is what it feels like to be called a champion.

Xia Chi tried her best to suppress her smile and replied with a thank you.

What if someone asks you what championship you won in the future?
I can now answer with a simple "Shanghai Bao Cup champion" instead of "void champion".

What? Baby Cup champion?
So what? Let me ask you if you're the champion!

After settling down in the waiting area of ​​the medical room, Xia Chi finally had time to check the system's rewards.

He silently prayed in his mind, "Brother Tongzi, please settle my battle rounds."

[Battle Round 2-1 of the Shanghai Cup has ended]

[Assessing host performance.]

[System Rating: 100/100, Congratulations on obtaining 2 Gold-Tier Orbs!]

They won every game without losing a single point.

Their opponent in the finals is still the formidable Green Vine Snake.

Both the process and the result naturally deserve a perfect score.

But a mere Baby Cup reward could actually include two Golden Orbs?

This result was a pleasant surprise for Xia Chi.

"Open both orbs for me."

[The Golden Orb has been activated. Congratulations, host, you have received the following rewards: Basic Equipment Forging Tool*2, Lucky Lantern*1, Giant Golden Egg*1, Golden Shovel*1]

Wow, so many new things!
Aside from the basic equipment forging tool I had already obtained, the other three rewards were somewhat unfamiliar.

Open the [Items] tab, and three new items will appear.

[Golden Spatula: Can be combined with basic equipment to create corresponding synergy emblems.]

[Giant Golden Egg: A high-quality Pokémon egg with unlimited potential. Its potential will increase with each victory in a battle, up to a maximum of three battles. Current potential (1/3). Currently hatchable Pokémon: 4V Charmander (Shiny)]

[Lucky Lantern (2-1): Opening it will grant you a large number of high-quality items from this world (the intelligent prize pool will be unlocked based on your current situation)]

These are all good things!

Xia Chi was very satisfied with the rewards from the two golden orbs.

Although it may not be as good as the Prismatic Ball at the beginning, it is almost all of the ones that Xia Chi can use at this stage.

First is the Golden Spatula, which can be used to craft Bond Emblems.

Undoubtedly, this is a crucial source for completing the six-bond system.

If you synthesize a Dark attribute bond emblem, then considering the "Dark attribute bond +1" Chosen Emblem that Tirai Meow already has.

You only need to capture three more Dark-type Pokémon to complete the Six Dark Bond!

This will greatly increase the development speed of Xiachi Elf.

The reward for the giant golden egg is equally enticing.

4V Different Color Charmander!
Xia Chi, who is very greedy, wants to hatch it right now.

And this is only one-third of the way through the progress bar!

If we complete one or even two more rounds, what will hatch?
6v Quasi-God?

To be even bolder, could it be a 6v Mythical Pokémon?
Tongzi's delayed gratification technique made Xia Chi's heart itch.

My anticipation for the next two rounds of battle has suddenly soared to new heights.

As for the last lucky lantern, we're still clueless.

But since Brother Tongzi has labeled it as "high-quality," it must be something that is difficult to obtain through ordinary means in reality.

There's no time like the present, so Xia Chi decided to open the rewards right now.

First, use the [Basic Equipment Forging Tool] as a stepping stone.

------

"Brother Tongzi, activate the basic equipment forging device."

[Forging successful. Please select the first basic equipment!]

[Useless Stick: +10% Special Attack]

Chainmail: +10% Physical Defense

[Giant's Belt: +10% Health/Stamina] There's not much to think about with this.

I had already decided that the next piece of equipment would be for Dream Demon, so naturally I chose the one that suited it best.

"Useless stick, let's move on to the next one."

[Useless Staff successfully forged. Please select the second basic equipment!]

Recurve Bow: +10% Skill Casting Speed

[Critical Strike Gloves: +10% chance to hit a critical hit]

[Storm Greatsword: +10% Physical Attack]

Sheepstick, Rabadon's Deathcap, Hextech Gunblade!
Xia Chi achieved a time of 0.3 seconds in the Golden Shovel equipment synthesis test.

It's time for the classic three-choice challenge again.

Without a doubt, the first thing to rule out is the Sheepstick.

The Sheepstick is a strange item. Xia Chi doesn't know how the basic attacks of elves are calculated in this world.

But no matter what, it's definitely not a good match for Misdreavus.

You do have options for magic explosives and tech guns.

One tends to burst damage, the other tends to sustain spellcasting.

Both are good choices.

However, upon further reflection, the Dream Demon's unique bond [Lord of Fear] is the kind of being that gets stronger the more you fight.

Tech guns should be prioritized.

"Choose the Storm Sword!"

[The Storm Sword has been successfully forged. Should it be combined with the Needlessly Large Rod to create a Hextech Gunblade?]

"Wait a minute, let me see what kind of synergy emblems these two items can be combined with the Golden Spatula!"

The crafting path for the Golden Spatula and the B.F. Sword is: Fire/Grass Attribute Bond Emblem.

The crafting path for the Golden Spatula and the Needlessly Large Rod is: Water/Electric Synergy Emblem.

Electricity, grass, water, fire.

Xia Chi pondered for a moment.

Apart from grass, nothing else is currently usable.

There's no rush to build up the Grass synergy; there's no need to waste your Golden Spatula.

Let's save the Golden Spatula for the Dark attribute synergy emblem that can boost development speed.

"That's fine then, let's synthesize the Tech Gun."

[Hextech Gunblade successfully forged!]

Xia Chi asked curiously, "By the way, Brother Tongzi, could you tell me the crafting routes for basic equipment and the Golden Spatula?"

【no. 】

Xia Chi pursed his lips and said, "Alright, let's see how the technology gun works."

[Hextech Gunblade: +10% Adaptive Force (Physical/Special) Attack, +10% Omnivamp, Unique Passive: Damage dealt with special abilities will heal the user for 10% of the damage dealt. Excess healing will form a life shield (up to 10% of total health)]

Damn, why are you so much stronger than Bloodthirster?

Xia Chi felt indignant on behalf of the Blood-Drinking Sword, which was the first to be activated.

Stacked together, it grants 20% special attack lifesteal, and the excess lifesteal also provides a small shield!
The added basic attributes are still adaptive!
It's fair to say that none of these entries are wasted.

After clicking his tongue for a while, Xia Chi said, "Equip it on the Dream Demon."

[Equipment successful!]

The first piece of equipment is done, next up is the lucky lantern.

"Activate the lucky lantern!"

The Lucky Lantern has been activated, granting the following rewards: Miracle Seed*6 (from Viridian Forest, Kanto), Rock Gem*6 (from Svengey's Mine, Lavender Town, Hoenn), Curse Charm*6 (from the Spirit Realm), Training Booster*4 (doubles the experience gained by Pokémon from training and battles), Healing Capsule*1 (can cure any disease in a living Pokémon), TM/Shift (can be used on any Pokémon, but will be destroyed after one use)

Xia Chi: "!!!"

Bush, Gomen.
