Pokémon: The Sims

"Uh."

With a painful murmur, Hailiang's eyes rolled back and he fainted again.

"Dedicated".

Wu Ge silently gave Hai Liang a thumbs up.

Slide down the hill.

Wu Ge rushed back to the hotel with Masked Cat.

Along the way, not a single light could be seen in the entire city of Zombil.

Previously, you could still see the lights from the houses of some travelers from other places, but now even they have turned off the lights in their own houses.

The entire town was like a ghost town.

Although Wu Ge could neither see the lights nor hear the sounds, he could still catch glimpses of people peeking out from some windows.

"This ancient wood town is actually haunted, and by a very powerful ghost at that."

Wu Ge pursed her lips and shook her head.

Thinking about the power of that lost coffin now, it's simply terrifying.

No wonder that spirit has been in the human world for more than twenty years. It turns out that there was a Heavenly King-level lost coffin that had lived for at least several hundred years guarding it.

but

"You even managed to defeat a Heavenly King-level Night Demon. Next time, it might be a Champion-level Night Demon or the Lord of the Spirit Realm. What do you plan to do then?"

Wu Ge turned his head to look in the direction of Xunbil City.

The coffin and the spirit's figure had completely disappeared from sight.

Return to the hotel.

Wu Ge threw Hai Liang back onto his big bed in his room.

Then he took the masked cat back to his room.

"Meow?"

Masked Cat glanced at Wu Ge.

She had absolutely no idea what Wu Ge saw on the rooftop.

Also, what's with the figure next to that Pokémon?

"Go to sleep early. Tomorrow we'll leave this city and continue north. I'll also try to persuade Hailiang."

Wu Ge shook his head and didn't say anything more.

Too much information.

He himself hasn't even sorted it out yet.

How do you explain this to Masked Cat?

In the original work, the concepts of the spirit world and spirits were not explored much; there was basically only a vague understanding.

So even though Wu Ge was a time traveler, he was still somewhat confused after witnessing such a thing.

For example, that spirit

If nothing unexpected happens, it should be the noble young master who died in the city of Sempile more than 20 years ago.

But why couldn't I see him before?

I recalled the chilly feeling I had behind me while I was in the castle.

He had no doubt that the spirit was lying on his back at that moment.

But why couldn't I see it back then?

You'll be able to see it later?

perhaps

That's related to the opening of the gate to the spirit world.

"Meow~"

Compared to the complicated adults, Shin-Ye-Nyan yawned and snuggled into Masked-Nyan's arms, assuming a sleeping posture.

"Go to sleep and we'll talk tomorrow."

Wu Ge reached out and stroked the masked cat's head, then lay down.

He also needs to tidy up tonight.

Chapter 187 The Lost Coffin Comes Knocking

The next morning.

Wu Ge sat up, still half asleep.

After what happened last night, he really couldn't sleep.

I forced myself to stay awake until dawn before finally managing to fall asleep.

My main concern is...

They were worried that the spirit and the lost coffin might come looking for them in the middle of the night, to kill them and silence them.

Although Wu Ge is not afraid.

He's dead. At worst, he can become stronger in his next life and come back to take revenge. He could even destroy the entire city of Sumpil.

The problem is, Masked Cat and Hailiang can't die.

Regarding yesterday's events.

Wu Ge also had about two ideas.

One.

It was the spirit that was looking for a scapegoat.

This claim lacks any theoretical basis; it merely reflects events that appear to be similar in anime.

In the Sinnoh anime.

An excavator once accidentally destroyed a historical site.

And it was because of this that a certain spirit realm seal was broken, opening the gate to the spirit realm.

A spirit resembling a little girl emerged from this spirit world.

She did two dangerous things.

One is to lure a character named Kohei from the animation, intending to make him fall off a cliff.

The other thing was to beckon to Ash, trying to bring him into the spirit world.

In short, they did things that could kill people.

The animation doesn't give a reason why the little girl's spirit did this, but it's undoubtedly for its own benefit.

Wu Ge's guess was correct; the spirit was looking for a scapegoat.

The soul of Hailiang was led into the gate to the spirit world, and then the spirit was allowed to take over Hailiang's body and live on.

Wu Ge would make this conjecture for two reasons:

First, this noble boy was an illegal immigrant.

They are unlikely to face severe punishment.

However, there are no minor violations of the law, and smuggling can constitute a crime, so their moral standards need to be assessed.

Whether they will actually commit murder for money is hard to say.

Secondly, the high grade of these lost coffins is abnormal.

The level of that lost coffin is at least Lv.75 or higher.

Judging from how quickly it sent the Night Demon back to the Spirit Realm, its combat power is absolutely top-notch.

I reckon that's the ceiling among the Heavenly King level.

and.

In the ancient town of Xunbil, besides fighting those attacking Night Demons, who else can we fight?

In the past twenty years, this coffin has hardly experienced any battles, and its level has hardly improved.

Judging from the boy's spirit form, he looked to be only seventeen or eighteen years old.

Could it be that this young man, at the age of seventeen or eighteen, has already cultivated the Die Shi Coffin to the Heavenly King level?

It means leaving it for two hundred years.

How many people can raise a Ghost-type Pokémon to the Elite Four level at the age of seventeen or eighteen?

Or perhaps it was seven or eight hundred years ago.

The Three Kingdoms period was an era of endless warfare and countless deaths.

A Pokémon starts battling from birth and fights on the battlefield until it dies. How many of them can eventually reach the Elite Four level?

Especially in times like these?

Although it's not impossible.

However, in this era, such a possibility is extremely low.

Wu Ge preferred to believe that there was something fishy about this.

This led him to the idea of ​​'using a substitute to prolong life'.

The boy's spirit changed bodies to live on, and then continued to nurture the lost coffin.

If this idea is proven true.

The spirit they saw last night.

It is highly likely that he was one of the ancient kings of the Unova region.

In ancient times, only kings could afford to use gold to cultivate coffins.

of course.

This is just one possible approach.

This is just my personal guess about Wu Ge.

Another approach.

It is these lost coffins and spirits that have their request.

I would have thought of that.

It was because when they first entered the city of Sunbill, they did not launch an attack.

Logically speaking.

With Die Shi Guan's strength, he could easily launch an attack directly.

Even with all three Pokémon—small, medium, and large—combined, they couldn't fight back.

This line of thinking is also possible.

However, it cannot be ruled out that Coffin is a Pokémon with a cautious personality.

"Anyway, getting involved with them doesn't feel right to me, so we're leaving today."

Wu Ge turned his head to look at the masked cat who had already sat up next to him.

The masked cat's fur was messy.

Clearly, he didn't sleep well last night either.

Where's Shin-Ye-Nyan?

Wu Ge looked around but couldn't find Xin Ye Miao.
