My electronic Pokémon came true?

"The mask...is broken?"

Wu Li, who saw this scene after catching his breath, was dumbfounded and unable to speak.

Even though he didn't know how much craftsmanship his grandfather inherited from his ancestors, Wu Li felt that a mask that was broken into pieces like this could not be repaired.

That is to say...

The mask that Eruption was supposed to have is permanently missing.

Thinking of this, Lian Danyu couldn't help but look at the three companions running down the mountain.

"These guys are really capable of doing this!"

After destroying the stove mask, the other two companions still retained the masks they were holding.

Even though Eruption was still wearing the green grass mask, the brother and sister both felt pity for him when they saw the wildly laughing expression on the mask.

...What is the mood of the evil ghost now?

Even Erguiyan himself doesn't know.

As for Nan Xian on the other side, he was facing another dilemma at this moment.

……

[Because the collectible mask is permanently damaged, the Ghost of Ghost Mountain 4 mission can no longer be completed, and the mission has failed! ]

【Ding--】

[An unknown error has occurred. It is confirmed that the level of the Evil Spirit can no longer be upgraded. The process is stuck. ]

[This system will undergo self-inspection maintenance. During this period, the first cultivation slot will be unavailable. Before the maintenance is completed, the system will issue a "cultivation slot"*1 in advance as compensation. ]

Nan Xian felt caught off guard, and his heart suffered an even stronger shock than when he saw the damage to the stove mask.

By the way, the system did mention before that Eruption needs to collect new masks before it can continue to upgrade.

Because one of the masks is broken, Eruption is unable to collect all the masks, so maintenance is needed?

The system did not give the confused Nan Xian any time to think and immediately started the maintenance countdown.

[Attention, there are still ten seconds before maintenance begins...]

【Nine……】

Nan Xian didn't have time to consider whether the time in the simulator would continue to pass during the maintenance. She quickly started the simulator and touched the Eruption with her finger.

Accept it, my mood!

Nan Xian didn’t know how long the system would be maintained, so she could only try her best to convey her feelings.

[Evil Spirit has sensed your hint! 】

Ten seconds passed in a flash. She felt the simulator in her hand vibrate, and the screen that had been lit went out. She clicked it repeatedly, but only new prompts popped up.

[It was detected that the trainer has no Pokémon being raised. 】

[Extraction cooldown check... has been reset to zero, and the next Pokémon extraction can be performed. 】

"Guest, we have arrived at the place you requested."

The driver was urging him in front, so Nan Xian had no choice but to stand up, pay and get off.

The sea breeze blew in the face next to the seaside viewing hotel. Thanks to this biting cold wind, Nan Xian calmed down a little bit again.

Since I knew very early on that the simulator is not limited to a stereotyped development, just like a traditional open world game, anything can happen.

It is only natural that objects will be damaged.

If Nan Xian had noticed this earlier, he could have intentionally avoided the mask when guiding Erguiluo in battle. In that way, Erguiluo, who had stimulated a new fighting posture, could easily retract the mask.

——In that case, the training can continue.

The first attempt to cultivate it ended in failure.

Although she was reluctant to admit it, Nan Xian had no choice but to accept the fact, and she also needed to face up to her own carelessness.

Then.

What to do next?

From a rational point of view, Erguiyan is just electronic data. Since it is the first time to train it, there is insufficient experience, so failure is understandable and not a big deal.

The system prompts also provide room for maneuver. Temporarily locking the first development slot and providing compensation for the second development slot is to encourage Nan Xian to continue the simulation.

But even so, can Nan Xian feel at ease in his second training?

Nan Xian has always thought that she is a very rational person, but now she finds it difficult to make a choice on this issue.

The girl dragged her suitcase and leaned against the railing, continuing to think in the sea breeze.

Nan Xian is very clear about his own thoughts. If he wants to become a trainer but cannot reach the top, there is no point in blindly pursuing his dream.

That's why three years ago Nan Xian became Steel's apprentice and learned how to make handmade Poké Balls.

In the final analysis, it was simply that she was not as rational as she imagined herself to be. The choices she had made were merely the easiest options among a few.

Once his mind is infected by emotions, Nan Xian will also fall into confusion.

How could it be easy to get rid of evil?

Whenever Nan Xian imagined Ergui's lonely life after losing his company, his heart felt like a taut thread. He wished he could exchange his second chance at training for a way to go back in time and return to the time when he was guiding Ergui and his companions to fight.

Even in the Pokémon world, only two Pokémon can travel through time.

Celebi is a mythical Pokémon that is worshipped as the god of the forest and can travel through time.

The creator of time, the legendary Pokémon that controls time, Dialga.

——Why not just take a gamble, if you draw these two Pokémon, maybe you’ll have a chance?

Nan Xian felt that the more he thought about it, the hotter his head became. If he continued like this, he might really do something impulsive.

In order to cool herself down, the girl took out her mobile phone, opened the website aimlessly and typed in something.

She suddenly remembered the three precious companions she had just seen in the simulator.

Good dog, wish to increase the monkey, Jizhiji...

When Nan Xian searched for information about Uruk-O, he didn't find any information. What about these three Pokémon?

The girl didn't have high expectations and typed their names into the search bar.

After a moment, large pieces of news appeared. Looking at these pages, Nan Xian couldn't help but widen his eyes.

"Six Selections in Beishang - Beautiful Natural Sceneries You Must Visit in Beishang Township!"

"The Mask Festival is about to begin. Before that, you must know the legend of Kitakami Township!"

"The hero who protects the village, the evil ghosts wandering in the ghost mountain, the horror legends you must know before traveling to Kitakami Township!"

The Hellraiser does not actually exist in any news on the Internet.

However, the legendary history that has been promoted as Beishang Township’s trademark for many years is everywhere.

When she saw the familiar words, the girl's mind froze for a moment.

Chapter 28: Evil and strange, running away from home!

Beishang Township, Kongdong.

Erguiyan was packing up things in the house.

Green grass mask, blanket, leather ball, and a few shriveled cherry berries.

After carefully putting all these things into his arms, Erguiyan breathed a sigh of relief and walked out of the horror cave.

The outside of the Terror Cave was still a mess. The noise from yesterday's battle had not yet been cleaned up. If it were in the past, Erguiyan would definitely have cleaned it up before going to bed.

But now, it's ready to leave.

That's right.

——Leave Beishang Township.

Now Erguiyan has no confusion in his heart. He knows clearly what he really desires and how insignificant the things that he originally valued are.

From far away at the foot of the mountain, the sound of a bustling festival could be heard, with occasional shouts.

“… Enough.”

"...I wish to squeak."

“…Hehehe.”

Erguiyan curled his lips, unwilling to pay attention to them, and walked to the other side of the mountain with the things in his arms.

In the past, the evil spirit would stay alone in the horror cave and hear the lively sounds of the festival. In the middle of the night, it would put on a mask and blend into the crowd of people wearing masks, watching from the edge of the festival square.

It is indeed afraid of loneliness, so it desperately wants to grasp any bit of comfort that can warm its heart.

But now Erguiyan no longer needs that false warmth.

Eruption reached deep into his arms and took out his most treasured item.

——The doll that looks exactly like her.

No matter when or where, as long as he looks at the doll, Eruption can feel that she is still by his side.

Even though she hasn't come back for a day and a night.

Erguiyan still remembers that before she said goodbye, she expressed her reluctance to leave.

Something must have happened on her end, so I had to rush to her side.

Erguiyan rubbed the doll with his cheek again, and then reluctantly let go.

The white-haired girl doll glowed with a faint golden light, floating in the air, vaguely guiding the direction of Erguiyan.

"Boni Boni."

Erguiyan nodded repeatedly, put the doll back into his arms, and looked in that direction again.

Should we go there next?

Erguiyan trusted the guidance of the puppet and ran in small steps on the mountain path without hesitation.

Behind Erguiyan, Danyu and Wuli were secretly following it, observing the direction of the evil ghost.

"...That direction doesn't look like the north center."

Danyu estimated for a moment and looked surprised.

In the battle yesterday, Erguiyan easily defeated his companions. Although the Fire Stove Mask was broken, his companions fled the scene.

The escaped companions returned to the North Center. When Danyu and Wuli came back with them, they were seen showing off as if they had won the victory, and were congratulating themselves by the adults.

Damn companion!

Thinking of that disgusting scene, Danyu gritted his teeth in hatred and clenched his fists.

Wu Li didn't think so much, he just considered it and made a guess.

"That's the port over there."

What is Eruption doing at the port?

The brother and sister looked at each other in confusion and could only continue to follow Erguiyan.

Not long after, the two saw Ergui standing in the distance, looking at the ships in the harbor.

This……

The intention of that action was so obvious that Danyu and Wuli immediately realized that Eguiyan might want to take a boat and leave Beishang Township.

Leaving Beishang Township?

When they thought of this possibility, complex emotions welled up in the siblings' hearts.

No matter what, the evil spirit is part of the ancient legend of Beishang Township, but now it wants to leave. This is undoubtedly the result of years of persecution by the villagers of Beishang Township.

Just yesterday, Eruption even broke its own mask because of the active attack from its companions.
