Elf Trader: My trump card is the Light/Dark Mantis.

He's an expert!

After thinking for a moment, he checked his account balance of 40 points and decisively chose to purchase the item.

PP booster from the world of elves!

In reality, Pokémon need to consume energy hidden within their bodies to use their moves, and when that energy is depleted, they can only rely on physical strength to attack.

There is no such thing as a move's PP value.

PP boosters don't restore a fixed number of skill points; instead, they restore a fixed amount of energy to the Pokémon...

After all, can a water gun consume the same amount of energy as a water cannon?

A single dose of the PP supplement produced by the system would be enough to fully replenish the energy in the bodies of Dar and Sadero at this stage.

"Don't worry, we'll definitely win this time."

Jiang Gu said confidently

The two Pokémon, Dahl and Sadero, naturally trusted their trainer implicitly.

Seeing Jiang Gu speak, he immediately nodded firmly as well.

At this moment, the mushroom monster was clearly unaware of the seriousness of the situation.

It was still approaching Jianggu in a smug and leisurely manner.

In the mushroom monster's view, those two elves posed no threat to it at all!

But then it realized how terribly wrong it had been...

The mushroom monster triumphantly unleashed its attack: Poison Gas Impact!

It spewed out extremely terrifying poisonous smoke!

It's not that its power is terrifying!

Rather, it was simply because the mushroom monster's enormous size meant that an area spanning several dozen square meters was being washed over by the poisonous gas!

Unfortunately, all that fanfare was formidable but ultimately useless...

The Mushroom Monster's Speed ​​stat is only 60!

Even if it is extremely tall, it is still...

Unable to touch the petite and agile Dahl and Sadero!

Thus, the two little mantises easily avoided the attack of the poisonous gas.

As for Jiang Gu, he didn't dodge at all.

This person wasn't in the core area where the attack's power was unleashed; they were simply enveloped by some spreading poisonous gas.

The nanosuit can withstand various extreme environments, so this bit of toxic gas has no effect whatsoever.

Then, Jiang Gu shouted.

"Use the Crescent Slash to stall for time!"

"Sadero, keep using your power until you reach your limit!"

Although Jiang Gu's tactic was to use gentle, piecemeal methods, he knew that such methods were not advisable. He decided to use a Transmutation-type move to maximize his strength first.

Of course, in reality, pushing a Pokémon to its limit is a very dangerous thing.

Because this means that Pokémon will have to endure a surge of violent power that may be dozens of times stronger than the energy in their own bodies!

For a spirit with insufficient natural talent, it's already quite good if it can withstand a level or two of attribute boost!

Only those Pokémon with exceptionally strong individual abilities or extremely high base stats can maximize their power-ups and fight for extended periods!

And coincidentally, both Dahl and Sadero, as larvae of the Light and Dark Mantis, are beings that could even undergo Mega Evolution into Legendary Pokémon in the future...

Its potential should not be underestimated.

It can absolutely withstand the state of extreme enhancement!

After Jiang Gu finished making tactical arrangements, he breathed a sigh of relief.

Because the mushroom monster in front of them was completely unaware of the problem.

After all, it only reigns supreme on Kross Star; it has little experience and doesn't understand tactics.

There was absolutely no attempt to preemptively deal with Sadero, thus preventing him from strengthening his command.

Instead, Dahl easily captured all her attention.

The crescent slash of the mantis larva was almost unable to penetrate the defenses of the dominant species in the forests of Kross Star...

This only infuriated the mushroom monster!

However, Dahl nimbly dodged the mushroom monster's counterattack...

This made the dominant spirit angrier the more it was attacked, and its actions became increasingly ferocious!

In just a few rounds, under the mushroom monster's unrestrained rage, countless giant trees in the forests of Kross were destroyed!

Countless terrain features were completely torn apart!

Meanwhile, Dahl is also in grave danger as the mushroom monster attacks him!

But this delay is enough!

"Curved Moon Double Flash!"

Jiang Gu's words are concise and to the point.

At the same time, he threw the PP supplement in his hand into the air!

With multiple enhancements, the energy required for each move and attack of the spirit will increase significantly.

Therefore, Jiang Gu needs to replenish Sadero in advance!

The larvae of the dark mantis also share a deep connection with their owner.

Sadero sliced ​​through the air with a single cut, shattering the PP supplement's outer shell and swallowing the liquid inside.

Then, with undiminished momentum, it used the power of the Crescent Moon Double Flash, its entire body enveloped in a strong, sharp aura, to charge towards the mushroom monster.

A knife!

A crack has been torn open on the thick surface of this giant, dominant elf!

Next, the second strike!

The mushroom monster's wound has deepened again!

Countless plant saps shot out!

Despite the mushroom monster's enormous size...

This injury is nothing, but it means that Sadero's attack has broken through his defenses!

Instantly, the mushroom monster's frenzied attack stopped.

It felt a sharp pain, and then it turned its gaze away from Dahl and stared fiercely at Sadero!

Just ...

This little bug! It hurt itself!

Jiang Gu immediately realized that the dominant elf in front of him had already changed its target, so he shouted loudly.

"Dahl, use Blade Aura!"

That's right, now that Sadero has finished his enhancement, it's time for Dahl to push his power to its limit.

Chapter 20: The Little Mushroom's Essence

Like Dahl, Sadero is a V-class speed individual!

In addition, its excellent speed stat makes it incredibly agile and maneuverable...

The mushroom monster's attack was easily dodged by the larva of the dark mantis!

As a result, the dominant elf in the forests of Kross became increasingly enraged, unleashing a series of attacks that shattered the ground and trees!

But the mushroom monster's resistance was completely useless!

It was just that Sadero kept slashing its body with wound after wound!

This battle continued for a while.

Dahl has also joined the battle!

Its blade energy is fully charged!

At this moment, the output of this mantis larva is enough to break through the mushroom monster's defense!

Dahl and Sadero joined forces, with the two little mantises leaping and scrambling, occasionally delivering a slash to the mushroom monster!

It's draining the health of this dominant spirit.

But the mushroom monster's methods were no match for an opponent whose speed overwhelmed it!

Jiang Gu's accusation was that he was frantically running around to avoid being affected by the mushroom monster's attacks.

At the same time, he threw PP boosters at his Pokémon.
