Pokémon's Lord of Fear

"Dead Silence? This name is quite interesting." Daigo became interested.

He has always known that his younger brother likes to watch horror movies. When he was young, while other kids were playing with dolls, Teng Shu's favorite thing to do was to watch movies, and he especially liked watching horror movies.

Daigo, who felt he needed to be a good brother and take care of his younger brother every day, was forced to watch all the horror movies released in the league during this period, so much so that Daigo himself summarized a set of basic horror movie routines.

For example, when the camera should turn at this place, suddenly something happens. The next second the protagonist turns around and a ghost Pokémon is about to appear. You can even guess which trainer will finally capture the evil ghost Pokémon.

After all, the most popular horror movie routine in the Pokémon world is that ghost-type Pokémon cause trouble, and then the protagonist is a trainer, who defeats the ghost-type Pokémon and finally captures it.

However, looking at the script in his hand, Daigo, who had initially read it with a relaxed attitude, slowly sat up straight.

This script seems interesting.

Then Daigo saw this scene.

[..When the male protagonist was about to search for clues about Mary Shaw, he accidentally saw his wife's back at the stairs of his house. He subconsciously called out to her, but his wife did not turn around]

[The male protagonist thought of his wife's tragic death, and his body began to tremble. Under the dim moonlight, his wife slowly turned her head. Her body was still facing forward, but her head was turned 180 degrees, staring straight at the male protagonist]

[The male protagonist saw his wife's ripped jaw, blood constantly gushing out of his wife's mouth and dripping onto the ground]

"Hiss" Daigo swallowed his saliva. Just reading this script gave him an inexplicable sense of déjà vu, as if the woman whose jaw had been torn off was standing in front of him.

Teng Shu took a look at the script, and Daigo had already seen the new scare scene he had added in the company. In fact, the source of this scene was the movie The Grudge, where the girl whose jaw was torn off stood on the stairs, which was considered a classic scare scene.

The slowly turning figure, and the feeling of knowing that the other person is a dead person but having nowhere to escape, can be said to have increased the horror of this shot.

Although such a shot is not a novelty in the previous life, it is obviously groundbreaking in this world.

"Brother, how do you feel?" By the time Daigo finished reading, more than twenty minutes had passed. Daigo's reading speed was quite fast. After all, this script had some more thrilling plots than the one he had in the morning.

"Your final ending feels a bit depressing." Daigo let out a long sigh and put down the script in his hand. He is now looking forward to the completion of the film.

The script alone is so scary. When the finished film comes out, with the pictures and sound effects, won't countless people be scared to death?

"This is a horror movie after all." Teng Shu smiled and shrugged. He knew what his brother meant.

After all, in horror movies in the Pokémon world, the evil Pokémon that do evil will be imprisoned or captured in the end. Even if they are not captured in this episode, they will be captured in the next episode. So when you see an evil ghost Pokémon running away, it proves that there will be a sequel to this movie.

Even in the most famous Pokémon world, "A Nightmare on Elm Street 13", the super villain, a cursed doll that does all kinds of evil, has been released for various reasons as the sequel was confirmed, and then set off a wave of terror in various places.

This is similar to some well-known movies in the previous life, such as Jason who can't be killed, Freddy who can be resurrected after death, and so on.

"After you finish making this movie, I feel like I may need to go to the relevant departments to say hello." Daigo handed the script of "Dead Silence" to Teng Shu. The scariness of this movie is simply maxed out.

"As long as we follow the alliance's rating system, it shouldn't be a problem to rate this film. I also plan to give a dollar off each movie ticket without changing the ticket price, and donate the money to the Wandering Pokémon Foundation." Teng Shu wasn't too worried.

In Teng Shu's opinion, the greatest advantage of this world is the film rating system. His films may be divided into several versions, including censored and harmonious versions for children and the elderly, and uncensored versions for adults or teenagers, thus providing fans with the best viewing experience to the greatest extent possible.

What's more, he also planned to give one dollar of profit to charity. In this case, Teng Shu didn't think that his debut work would be blocked.

"Give a dollar in profit? That's a good thing." Daigo nodded with satisfaction. He had just become the league champion, but he also knew how many troubles there were in this huge league.

Abandoned Pokémon is a point that people pay less attention to, but it is also a cause that the Alliance attaches great importance to. If Teng Shu can have this idea, then there will be no problem with the release of this movie, and the Alliance may even take the initiative to help promote this movie.

It seems that my little brother has really grown up a lot.

"Brother, how does it feel to be the league champion?" Teng Shu looked at Daigo curiously.

Although he has climbed to the top of the list in different generations of games, the champion in the game is just a title and a name, and there is actually not much difference.

"Well, it feels great. In the end, I'm still the strongest." Daigo smiled.

Becoming a champion means fame and fortune. This is the title of the strongest trainer in a region. The treatment given by the league alone is enough to make a person reach the top in one step.

Chapter 9: The Mansion in the Orange Forest

Teng Shu was a little amused, but this was indeed something that a brother like him could say.

But if you think about it carefully, if you were able to stand at the top of an industry at the age of 18 in your previous life and look down on everyone else, this would definitely be an exciting thing. If you are not proud of this, you are not a teenager anymore.

"Teng Shu, have you decided who your next Pokémon will be?" Daigo looked at his younger brother and said seriously.

In the Zfuchi family, although every member is not required to become an excellent trainer, they must at least have a certain self-protection ability. After all, they are wealthy people in the Hoenn region, and some villain organizations active in the dark may target them.

Having a group of powerful Pokémon around you can also protect yourself and avoid being kidnapped by others.

Daigo doesn't really care about his own safety, after all, he is very powerful, and as the new champion of the Hoenn region, there are not many people who can kidnap him.

But my younger brother is different.

Teng Shu scratched his head. He knew what Daigo meant. After all, children from wealthy families were always the type that were easy to be kidnapped. His identity was no secret in the eyes of those who were interested in the Hoenn region. After all, Dewen Company was the leader in the Hoenn region, and its every move attracted attention.

If the Magma Team Aqua Fleet or the Kanto region's Rocket Team targeted him and he was kidnapped, it would be very difficult for him to rely on Mimikyu to escape, and it would also cause trouble for his old father and brother.

"I'll seriously consider it, brother." Teng Shu nodded carefully. He didn't want to cause any trouble to Daigo and the others, so he had to have some self-protection ability.

As for the choice of Pokémon, Teng Shu had thought of some other options before, such as Lucario, Charizard, etc., but combined with the golden finger he obtained this time, Teng Shu felt that the ghost-type Pokémon seemed to be his destined choice.

After all, the lowest level reward is a candy-making machine specifically for ghost Pokémon. With that thing, Pokémon can gain awakening value and directly become a super Pokémon that exceeds its own limits.

It’s scary to think about a Pokémon with an attribute value of 200. At that time, an ordinary small skill can be used as a big move.

"If you've made up your mind, just tell me or dad. No matter what Pokémon you want, we can find all the other Pokémon for you, except for the mythical and legendary Pokémon." Daigo smiled and rubbed Teng Shu's head.

But he didn't lie. Whether in terms of economy or status, as long as Teng Shu didn't ask for too strange Pokémon, Daigo and Hibiscus could get them for him.

"Okay." Teng Shu nodded. He hadn't figured out what kind of Pokémon he needed. Ghost-type Pokémon had a special status in the league and were rare. It was not easy to encounter ghost-type Pokémon.

The next morning, when Teng Shu got up for breakfast, he found that Daigo was gone.

The old butler kept chattering while providing breakfast to Teng Shu. Teng Shu then realized that Daigo had left late last night. It seemed that the alliance had something that needed Daigo, the new champion, to deal with. It was said to be related to the water fleet.

"Everyone is busy, it's better to be busy." Teng Shu curled his lips as he looked at the empty dining table, then picked up Xiao Q, put him next to him, and let it sit on the chair to eat with him.

The old housekeeper was used to it. Mu Jin was like this before. Once she was busy, she had no time to eat breakfast.

After finishing breakfast, Teng Shu brought Xiao Q to the company. The company was already full of people who were busy working. Both auditions and location searches were proceeding in an orderly manner and filming would probably start soon.

"Boss." A girl came over in a hurry. She had a good figure and was very pretty.

According to the standards of the previous life, it was probably pure desire.

"What's wrong?" Teng Shu didn't really care. He was more concerned about filming the movie. The sooner he could shoot the movie, the sooner he could get the reward. Teng Shu couldn't wait any longer.

"Regarding the venue, we found a dilapidated Western-style house in Chenghua Forest. Do you think it's suitable?" The girl handed a document to Teng Shu, who took it. On it was a dilapidated Western-style house in the forest. It looked a bit eerie, but roads could still be seen around it, and there was a lake next to it.

Teng Shu touched his chin. This western-style house was quite interesting. Perhaps it could be used as Mary Shaw's former residence, or as the accommodation for the protagonist's father. Combined with the surrounding environment, it looked very scary.

"That's fine." Teng Shu nodded. This western-style mansion would definitely be a great filming location. It has been dilapidated for so long and it looks like no one lives there. I just don't know what the environment inside is like. If possible, maybe it could be used as the filming location for Mary Shaw's Puppet Theater.

Different from the original silent plot, this time, in order to lay the groundwork and make the existence of Mimikyuu more reasonable, Teng Shu set the character of Mary Shaw as an exquisite puppet-making master.

However, looking at this western-style mansion and its location made Teng Shu think of something.

If he remembered correctly, when he was playing Pokémon Ruby and Sapphire, he once saw a mansion in the Orange Forest. You need to learn the secret technique of chopping trees to get to that place. There are many ghost-type Pokémon in it, and it seems that Hikari in the plot will be controlled by a Pokémon there and fight against the protagonist.

So, could this Western-style mansion be it?

"Boss, but there are some rumors that this mansion is haunted." The girl deliberately nudged Teng Shu, and Teng Shu subconsciously took a step back. The girl's expression instantly became serious, as if she was just working.

"Rumors of being haunted?" Teng Shu became interested. It should be the mansion in the game, unless there are other mansions in the Orange Forest.

"I'll send someone to find out. You guys continue to look for a filming location. How are the audition arrangements going?" Teng Shu decided to let the old butler go and inquire about it later.

There's no need to trouble Daigo with this kind of thing.

"Many outstanding actors have come for auditions." The girl nodded honestly. Seeing this, Teng Shu continued to discuss the script with Xiao Jin and the others.

As for the girl's little thoughts, he didn't care.

Chapter 10: Overlord in the Orange Forest

Most of the script had been discussed yesterday, and the entire script had been revised by this afternoon. As for the ending, Teng Shu still chose the first ending of dead silence.

The second ending is the type that is terrifying when you think about it carefully, but this does not meet Teng Shu's requirements. What he wants this time is extreme fear. He wants to use a new horror film to increase his popularity in the Pokémon world and pave the way for subsequent movies.

After finishing the script work, Teng Shu became free. He now only needed to wait for the auditions and other work to be completed before he could start filming the movie.

But before that, he planned to see what the foreign-style house in the Orange Forest was all about.

"Master Teng Shu, do you want to buy that western-style house?" After receiving Teng Shu's call, the old butler drove over immediately and looked at Teng Shu with a smile.

It's really rare that the young master actually takes the initiative to ask for something.

You know, since the young master was born, he has never taken the initiative to ask for anything. Even the Mimikyu Hill was only asked for after Master Mu Jin asked. Now the young master actually took the initiative to ask for the information of a house.

No matter what, the old housekeeper felt that he needed to get the house.

"No, I just heard that the house seems to be a haunted house and there are rumors that it is haunted." Teng Shu stroked Mimikyu's little head, then got into the car with a smile.

Then he saw a document on the back seat of the vehicle. He picked it up and took a look at it in confusion. It was a property registration with his name on it, and the registered real estate was the mansion in Chenghua Forest.

Teng Shu opened his mouth in confusion. He found that he seemed to have underestimated the financial resources of the Zfuchi family. He just mentioned the house casually, but he didn't expect the old butler to buy it.

"Master Teng Shu, this house is yours now." The old butler smiled gently. Although the young master didn't seem to want it, this dilapidated western-style house was not worth much money. After asking the master for permission, he directly bought it and quickly completed the transfer procedures.

"So what are the rumors about this house?" Teng Shu pinched his brows. Looking at the old housekeeper's expression, he knew that the price of this house was probably very cheap, so cheap that his old father was too lazy to call him to tease him.

"Yes, this is the rumor I collected." The old butler handed a document to Teng Shu, who took it, opened it and took a look.

[It is said that Chenghua Mansion was originally owned by a poor noble family. Later, the noble family died out, and the mansion became uninhabited and gradually abandoned.]

[It is rumored that a traveler once heard a woman's sad sobbing in the Orange Forest. Following the sound, he came to the mansion, and then saw a ghost in the empty mansion. He was frightened and had a heart attack.]

[There are also rumors that some scary ghost Pokémon live in the Orange Mansion and often play tricks on people who enter the mansion.]

[According to the Alliance's investigation, there are no ghosts inside the Orange Mansion, but it has become an amusement park for ghost-type Pokémon]

Teng Shu scratched his head. After reading the official report, he felt that the mysterious veil surrounding this mansion seemed to be torn apart in an instant, and the original haunted rumors turned into an ordinary ghost Pokémon residence.

"The one from the Orange Forest is not in the mansion, right?" Teng Shu thought of something and asked quickly.

What he was asking about was a secret that only a few people in the alliance knew. In fact, it was not really a secret, but that person did not like to be disturbed, so it became a secret.

Teng Shu was able to know this because his father was the president of Dewen Company.

"No, that person doesn't live in the mansion." The old butler shook his head. He also knew who Teng Shu was talking about.

Teng Shu nodded after hearing this. He just didn't want to get involved with that person. Although his brother was already the champion, it wasn't worth it to offend a dominant Pokémon for no reason, not to mention that the other party was not an ordinary dominant Pokémon.

"Take me to that mansion to have a look." Since he knew it had nothing to do with the overlord, Teng Shu planned to go to the mansion to have a look, and by the way, look for the Pokémon he liked.

Teng Shu doesn't have too many requirements for the type of ghost-type Pokémon. After all, there is now such a buggy thing as awakening value, and Teng Shu only cares about the appearance.

And he didn't plan to become a champion, as long as he had the power to protect himself, that was enough.

"Okay, young master." The old butler got into the car with a smile, and then the black car left Kanaz City and arrived at the entrance of the Orange Forest.

You have to get off the car at the entrance, as vehicles are not allowed to enter the forest.

Teng Shu didn't care, but followed Shibata into the orange forest full of the breath of nature.

Unlike the Orange Forest in the game that can be walked out of in one or two minutes, the Orange Forest in reality is larger and more vast, with a large number of Pokémon and many trainers gathered here.

Some novice trainers will come here to hone themselves, and this is also a paradise for insect catching enthusiasts.

"Little Q, do you want to fight against wild Pokémon?" Teng Shu smiled and rubbed Little Q's head. Little Q immediately shook his head and then shrank into Teng Shu's arms.

Teng Shu didn't say anything. With Xiao Q's personality, it was indeed troublesome to fight against ordinary Pokémon.

Ever since he commanded Little Q in battle, Teng Shu gave up the idea of ​​letting Little Q fight against ordinary Pokémon. Little Q's opponents now are Daigo's Metagross or Gym Leader Candice, because only these strong ones can suppress Little Q.

"Master Teng Shu, try not to let Xiao Q fight in the wild." Old butler Shibata also reminded Teng Shu.

The League strictly prohibits causing too much damage to wild Pokémon, so you can stop when you've beaten them enough.

"Yeah, I know." Teng Shu nodded, and Little Q shrank into his arms again, looking at the world around him with a hint of curiosity and fear in his little eyes.

Just as Teng Shu was following the old housekeeper to the real estate under his name, the surroundings suddenly became quiet, and the chirping of birds and insects that were there before seemed to disappear in an instant.

Teng Shu narrowed his eyes.

"Hehehe~ Little kid from the Zfuchi family, I heard that you bought that western-style mansion?" A huge figure squeezed out from the woods. When it came out, all the surrounding shadows were stepped on by it.

Teng Shu took a deep breath.

The purple-black giant in front of you, which is as tall as a two-story building, is the overlord of the Orange Forest.

Overlord Gengar!
