Pokémon Scenario: Intercepting Gible at the Start

The lifestyle of these fairies in Provence is much like that of human society. If we compare these fairy treasures to houses in the human world, it becomes much easier to understand.

Shang Qiu just gave away four old, dilapidated apartments in the suburbs, and now he's going to give away apartments in the city center!

Even Zhang Muchu looked at Shang Qiu in surprise.

She also knew that ordinary spirit treasures were worthless; what was valuable were secret treasures.

But there's a limit to how worthless something can be. This was the first time she'd ever seen someone treat an elf so well; she was practically envious!

However, after a moment's thought, Zhang Muchu calmed down again.

When they first met this boy, his family had investigated Shang Qiu's attitude toward elves.

They treated a group of low-level Twintail Hands like brothers, bringing them drinks and energy cubes.

It was precisely because of this that Shangqiu was judged by his family to possess the power of Tokiwa.

It was through Aunt Zhang Muchu's arrangement that they had their first few encounters.

Thinking about it this way, Zhang Muchu suddenly stopped feeling sour and instead urged Shang Qiu on.

"Shang Qiu, Ji Li Dan asked you a question. What did he ask you?"

Under everyone's watchful eyes, Shang Qiu withdrew his gaze from the rogue crocodile and nodded, saying:

"It's not for you yet." Hearing Shang Qiu's words, Chansey and the surrounding Pokémon all drooped their heads.

As expected... there's no such thing as a free lunch, and even if there were, it wouldn't be a big one; the likes of the Iron Rhino brothers are the limit.

"But..." Shang Qiu's "but" drew the attention of Chansey and the surrounding Pokémon back to the game.

They all know that in human speech, the most important words often come after "but".

“But if you’re willing to come with me and cooperate with my friend’s research, then this stone is yours.”

"If possible, give us the items first."

With Garchomp and Dragonite present, Shang Qiu wasn't worried about them running away, and generously handed over the treasure in his hand.

"Eggs!"

After a brief internal struggle, Chansey took the Evolution Stone from Shangqiu's hand.

Even if she were dragged away to be studied and sliced ​​up, it would be worth it to get this treasure. Anyway, she recovers quickly, so slicing up a few pieces wouldn't be a problem.

"Roar!" Seeing that Shang Qiu had already chosen three Pokémon, before he could even speak, Krookodile became anxious.

Humans often like the number 3 when choosing things. Could it be that he has already chosen enough?

"Human brother, human brother, I also want to cooperate in the research."

"It's not that I'm after your wealth, it's just that I enjoy the feeling of being sliced ​​up!"

Seeing the rogue crocodile's proactive attitude, Shang Qiu couldn't help but smile.

It's clear that this rogue crocodile is also short of money.

This makes it even more important to take him away. Pokémon that can evolve into Krookodile are all quite strong, at the very least Gym Leader level.

Although Chen Ying has no shortage of food or clothing, she really lacks strength. Researchers also need a Pokémon that they can be proud of.

Otherwise, it would be embarrassing if you couldn't slice it later.

Now, he's just happened to run into a money-grubbing crocodile. If he sees Chen Ying's wealth, he might choose to become her master.

That would be perfect!

Chapter 649 The Real Secret of Provence

After handing the treasure to the same Rogue, Dragonite soared into the sky amidst the envious gazes of the other Pokémon, and soon landed at the hotel where Chen Ying was.

The hotel is shaped like a large tree, and it is indeed a real tree, except that some decorations have been added to the outer layer.

Countless geckos live around this large tree, responsible for maintaining the exterior of the hotel.

They are the best natural gardeners, able to take good care of any kind of tree.

Inside the hotel, the staff consisted entirely of female butlers and blonde human women, who served as butlers and waitresses.

The rare Pokémon are numerous, including Chansey, always ready to make house calls; Exeggutor, which can be used as a bonsai; and Pikachu, which can jump around in the corridor and be petted at will.

In case of an accident, they can instantly transform into bodyguards or generators.

This hotel truly deserves its ten-star rating.

When they arrived, Chen Ying had already booked a room, the presidential suite on the eighth floor.

This presidential suite occupies half of the eighth floor, and it is fully equipped with a small conference room, a research room, a Pokémon training room, and a lounge.

Furthermore, to avoid sharing with regular guests, there is a separate elevator here.

Moreover, this elevator is enormous; even if a rogue crocodile and two armored rhinos squeezed in, it wouldn't feel crowded at all.

After boarding the elevator, Shang Qiu was somewhat puzzled.

Although this city is filled with equality, it is also filled with the insurmountable reality of the gap between the rich and the poor.

Whether it's the hotel room or the thugs outside the city bowing down for a pittance, everything is a reminder to Shang Qiu.

The equality here seems to be an illusion.

Compared to equality, this city seems to have forcibly dragged these elves into society.

These elves, who were originally free from work, suddenly all went to do chores.

The elevator was moving very fast, and before Shang Qiu could figure out why, it had already reached the 8th floor.

Shang Qiu shook his head and stopped worrying about it.

Chen Ying has already said she has a breakthrough point, so there's no need to exhaust yourself with brain cells.

"Let's go see the researcher first."

Shang Qiu held the elevator door shut with his hand, signaling Rogue Crocodile and Chansey to go first.

Chen Ying received a call from the front desk early on and was already waiting for Shang Qiu and Zhang Muchu at the door.

It was clear that Chen Ying's complexion was not good, and the situation was probably not optimistic.

Shang Qiu sent the thugs inside and walked over to Chen Ying.

"What have you figured out? Why are you in such a hurry?"

Chen Ying took a deep breath, her expression calming down.

"Didn't I take some fragments of the Wood Demon today?"

"I studied the composition of these fragments, and they contain not only ghost and grass-type energy, but also psychic power!"

"Superpowers?" Shang Qiu didn't react for a moment, and asked, "So what if you have superpowers?"

Chen Ying glanced at the ceiling, said nothing, and instead pulled Shang Qiu and Zhang Muchu into a room equipped with a high-powered jammer.

"What I'm about to say might be chilling."

Do you know anything about the basic attributes of Pokémon?

Shang Qiu and Zhang Muchu shook their heads; if it were an elf to fight, they would be excellent.

But to say that I have no understanding of the structure of elves, that's really not true.

Chen Ying organized her thoughts and tried to explain in the simplest way possible.

"Elves have different attributes, right? And there are even dual-attribute elves, and some can even obtain more attributes through crystals."

Shang Qiu seemed to understand, yet also seemed not to.

"But what does the attribute have to do with today's events?"

Chen Ying's pupils constricted, clearly indicating that she had been shocked.

"Of course it's related. I wouldn't say I'm the best in the world when it comes to research on Pokémon types, but I'm definitely in the top ten."

"I'm pretty sure that although Pokémon can mimic moves that aren't of their own type."

However, if an elf's physical body is separated from its body, it will absolutely lose the ability to mimic attributes.

After speaking, Chen Ying paused for a moment.

"Only some Scorbunny and Greninja, and your Tyranitar are exceptions."

This time, Shang Qiu understood completely.

As Chen Ying just mentioned, supernatural power was discovered in the fragments of the Wood Demon's body.

Wood Sprite is a Grass/Ghost type Pokémon, and it does not have the Psychic type.

Moreover, once his body fragments are separated from the whole body, it is impossible to simulate superpowers anymore.

The strange thing should be here.

So, Chen Ying asked him to find some other local Pokémon in order to study whether those Pokémon had any superpowers?

Oh no, the black glasses have turned white. Dark-type Pokémon are immune to psychic attacks, so it's impossible for psychic energy to remain in their bodies.

We have to trick this rogue crocodile into handing it over, or we'll lose big time!

"Let's go in first."

"By the way, can we come into your lab?"

Chen Ying walked into the room filled with experimental equipment without looking back. "It's fine, there's no secret."

Shang Qiu and Zhang Muchu: "???"

Having spent so much time with Chen Ying, they all knew what kind of things she was researching.

The move learning device and the crystal bead all originated from these experimental devices.

Such a top-secret item was not considered a secret by Chen Ying.

True one of us.

Shang Qiu didn't dwell on it too much and followed Chen Ying into the laboratory.

The laboratory was entirely silver-white, radiating a metallic sheen.
