This trainer has no moral principles

"If you think that only Caesar can activate its special ability when it changes form, you're wrong. Gunfight's special ability activates when it appears in a changed form, destroying a spell card on the field!"

Chapter 55: Fist of Heavenly Might

Sword Fighter Gundou raised his hand and aimed at the spell cards that Yuchi had covered the field with, and the mechanical device on his wrist ejected a small tornado.

Asu became more alert and stared at the card, worried that Youzhi would take the opportunity to launch an attack, just like the previous "withdrawal order".

But what relieved him was that You Zhi did nothing and let the spell card be torn into pieces by the tornado. He thought that he had guessed right. This should be a spell card that needs to meet conditions before it can be activated. It cannot be activated if the timing is wrong.

"The gunfight was done well. Next, we'll create distance and evolve again."

Asu used the same trick again. The tactic of Gun Fighting Beast is to destroy the elves and spell cards on the field through repeated evolution and degeneration.

But just as the Sword Beast Gundou rose into the air and prepared to evolve, the Neon Stone Spirit first released the freezing wind to slow down its speed, then jumped up like a rocket, rushed in front of the Sword Beast Gundou, and knocked it back to the ground with one punch.

With a "bang", the ground cracked and gravel flew everywhere.

"How could this happen!" Asu was horrified and quickly ordered, "Use high-speed movement to dodge the gunfight!"

Sword Fighting Beast Gun Fighting fell to the ground and tried to get up, but electric arcs shot out of his body, his limbs felt slightly paralyzed, and his movements were two beats slower.

The neon stone spirit turned around in the air with a dashing movement, and its two hammer braids also spun. Lightning surged in its hands, and it fell down like a meteor, hitting the sword fighting beast and the gun fighting beast who had no time to dodge.

There was a loud bang, smoke and dust were stirred up, mud waves rose three meters high, and the entire stadium shook a few times.

After a moment, when the smoke and dust dissipated, there was only a neon stone spirit lying on the ground gasping for breath, almost exhausted, and the shadow of Qixi Yihao was floating behind her.

Asu recovered from his shock and looked at Youzhi and asked, "Isn't the condition for your Pokémon to trigger its characteristics only when she is selected as the target of the effect? ​​Shouldn't it be activated when any spell card is selected as the target?"

You Zhi shook his head and said, "This isn't the characteristic of an elf, but the effect of a spell card. What I just covered was a spell card that would be triggered when it was destroyed, but the effect it showed was the same as the characteristic of an elf."

The spell card he just covered was "Unparalleled Heavenly Power Fist". The effect of this spell card is naturally not to summon the ghost of heavenly power to give the opponent a domineering punch, but to interfere or strengthen it according to the situation.

[Spirit Spell Card: Unparalleled Fist of Heavenly Power]

[Effect: When there is a Pokémon without an attribute on your side of the field, you can negate the activation of a Pokémon attribute or spell card. When this covered card is destroyed by your opponent's effect, you can make the Pokémon on the field gain the power of a Pokémon without an attribute.]

The characteristic of the Neon Stone Spirit is to obtain the power of water-attribute elves, and the Fist of Heavenly Power is to obtain the power of elves without any characteristics. However, the only one under Youzhi who meets these two conditions is Qixi Yihao, so the effects displayed are easy to confuse people.

If the battle continues, you will find the difference between the two, because the strengthening properties of the Neon Spirit only last for a period of time, while the strengthening effect of the Fist of Heavenly Power lasts for the entire battle until the elf is defeated or taken back.

After listening to this, Asu praised: "It seems that you already know the characteristics of gun fighting, so you use it to your advantage. I am completely defeated in this duel."

He readily took out a C-shaped badge shaped like a pair of steel wings, handed it to You Zhi, and encouraged him, "Your strength is far more than just two badges. Keep working hard. I hope to see you at the Alliance Conference."

At the same time, warm applause broke out in the audience. Everyone, whether an expert or an amateur, could see the excitement of the battle just now. Some people even clasped their hands and shouted, "Why are there only two games?" and "Asu, are you being lazy?"

Upon hearing this, Asu smiled bitterly and shook his head, then extended his hand and said, "Congratulations, your strength has been recognized by everyone."

"Thank you, but it's a sure thing."

You Zhi accepted the compliment as usual, and took back the Neon Spirit that had been upgraded to level 1 into its Pokémon Card.

……

All the reservations in Kikyo City have been completed. The person who wants to exchange Onix needs to find a psychic in Yuanzhu City to confirm the location, but You Zhi is not in a hurry to leave. He still rested in a hotel in Kikyo City for one night.

Of course, he was not idle either. He bought ritual supplies and prepared to perform the long-awaited spell card summoning.

After winning the gym battle, Youzhi's spiritual power increased again. Although it has not yet broken through to six stars, it is not far away. Moreover, the key to summoning spell cards is the total amount of spiritual power, not the star level. His spiritual power is twice the standard value, so even B-level spell cards can be summoned.

"The principles of all things in heaven and earth, the causes of existence and destruction, the rewards and punishments for good and evil, the stories of magical ghosts and monsters, the laws governing spirits, all respond to my call!"

You Zhi never liked to gamble on luck by randomly summoning, so this time he used Qi Xi Yihao as a connecting medium.

As the spiritual power resonated, a C-level card slowly condensed into shape.

[Trap Card: Forced Escape Device]

[Effect: You can activate this by targeting 1 monster on the field, and that monster returns to its owner's hand.]

You Zhi took a look and said disappointedly, "It's a stronger and worse version of the withdrawal order."

Strengthening and deterioration, seemingly contradictory descriptions, but there is no problem when applying them to this spell card.

The withdraw command can only withdraw your own elves, but the forced escape device allows the opponent to withdraw the elves. In terms of effect, it is undoubtedly an enhanced version. If placed in a card duel, it is not surprising that it is rated as a B-level card.

But generally speaking, no one would use this card in an elf duel. After all, exchanging elves is an opportunity to change the situation of the battle. Giving your opponent an opportunity to exchange for nothing means that you think the battle is not exciting enough and hope that your opponent will send out stronger and more targeted elves?

Of course, it doesn't mean that bouncing the opponent's elves back is useless. If the opponent uses various spell cards to strengthen the elves, then after bouncing them back to the elf card, you can reset the status and eliminate all the strengthening effects. However, compared with giving the opponent an exchange opportunity, it is difficult to distinguish the gains and losses.

As a C-level spell card, the Forced Escape Device consumes more spiritual power than the D-level Withdrawal Command and is refined more slowly, so people are more willing to use the latter.

You Zhi habitually took out the Pokémon Encyclopedia and recorded the information of the spell card in it. He was surprised to find that this was actually a related card of Qi Xi Yihao!

[Spirit Storage Spell: Forced Escape Device]

[Effect: Return 1 Pokémon to the Pokémon Card (When "Qili·Magic Lizard Yihao" is on the field, the returned Pokémon can recover half of its maximum spiritual power)]

For elves, spiritual power is vitality. With the addition of this hidden effect, the value of this spell card goes straight up to B level.

You Zhi took the spell card and looked at it carefully for a while, and then he confirmed that the unlucky guy who was flung out by the huge machine on the card was actually Qi Xi Yihao.

Chapter 56: The Psychic's Commission

After a successful start, You Zhi struck while the iron was hot, but the next two summons failed. The third one was successful, but it was a D-level card.

[Spirit Spell: Ice Rink]

[Effect: Transforms the environment into an ice rink, making it impossible for Pokémon other than Water to maintain balance (When Goblin Assault or Lizard Gigo is on the field, your Pokémon is unaffected. If both Pokémon are on the field at the same time, the opponent's Pokémon other than Water will be frozen)]

It was hard to say whether You Zhi was happy or disappointed. In terms of the effect of the "Ice Rink" itself, it was actually not as widely applicable as the "Earthquake" which was also at the D level. After all, both caused the players to lose their center of gravity, and the earthquake had no restrictions other than "water attributes".

However, the effect of the "earthquake" only lasts for a period of time, and as long as the "ice rink" itself is not destroyed, it can continue to absorb spiritual power to maintain itself. Moreover, it is also connected to the Goblin Assault Force and the Demon Lizard Yihao. It is not an exaggeration to say that it is tailor-made for the elves under Youzhi.

"Wait a minute, regardless of the effect of disrupting the balance, since this card can change the environment, perhaps the most suitable card for this card is not the Demon Lizard Yoshihiro, but the Neon Elemental."

You Zhi suddenly thought of a tactic, but it would take some testing to confirm whether it was really effective.

He estimated the remaining spiritual power, took away the Demon Lizard Yihao, and replaced him with the I I I girl.

After this player gained experience through the Challenge Tower, his level reached 11, but it was still far from the normal combat level, so it was reasonable for him to summon some related cards to enhance his strength.

He then performed three consecutive summons, failing once and succeeding twice, summoning "I I I Electric Shock" and "I I I Shield" respectively.

[Instant Spell: I I I Electric Shock]

[Effect: Activate this effect when you have a "Me Me Me" elf on the field. Select 1 card on the field and destroy it.]

[Spirit Spell: My Shield]

[Effect: Summons a legendary magic shield. Only magician elves can equip it. It can block elf attacks and effect damage, and can self-repair before being completely destroyed.]

Neither of these two spell cards is associated with the "I I I" girl, but they are both related to her. Among them, "I I I Shield" does not specify the "I I I" elf. As long as it is equipped by the magician, it can be equipped, which means that the Silent Magician can also use it. The effect of this spell card is a bit vague when looking at the description in the elf book alone, but it can be thoroughly understood with the help of plug-in identification.

[Normal Trap: I I I Shield]

[Effect: After activation, this card becomes an Equip Card, equipping it to 1 face-up Spellcaster-Type monster on your field. The equipped monster cannot be destroyed by battle or card effects up to 1 times per turn.]

There are two chances to avoid being destroyed in one round, which is reflected in reality as having a self-repair function. As long as it is not attacked continuously, it can be used continuously.

Seven consecutive C-level summons had almost drained all of You Zhi's spiritual power, so he could only stop there. As for the summoning of B-level spell cards, he decided to leave it until tomorrow or the day after tomorrow, depending on the recovery of his spiritual power.

"The summoning success rate is much higher than average. I feel like my luck has improved a lot since I traveled through time."

Judging from the miserable treatment of the original owner, whose body was abandoned by others, he was obviously not a lucky person. You Zhi felt that it must be his own credit, as the saying goes, "after misfortune comes good fortune."

……

The next day, You Zhi set off for Yuanzhu City. When passing the intersection of three cities, he deliberately searched nearby for the whole afternoon, but failed to find a Pokémon to replace the "Nonsense Tree". Instead, the "I, I, I Girl" was upgraded by 2 levels by clearing out a large number of wild Pokémon. In the end, he could only regretfully conclude that either the isotope did not exist, or it had been captured by someone else.

Of course, he was not that disappointed. After all, he had already had similar speculations before coming here. The impact on his mood was not as great as the failure of the B-level spell summoning that night.

With You Zhi's current total spiritual power, he can only perform one B-level summon at most. Considering the efficiency, he thinks it is better to wait until the spiritual power level is further improved in the future before trying again.

Without wasting any more time looking for elves, You Zhi quickly arrived in Yuanzhu City, contacted the psychic through the elf encyclopedia, and agreed to meet with the other party in a cafe.

"This way."

As soon as You Zhi entered the cafe, he saw a man wearing a purple sports headband on his forehead and a scarf around his neck waving at him.

"You must be 'Big Brutal', haha. From your nickname I thought you were a burly, strong bodybuilder."

"You don't look like a psychic medium. In comparison, you look more like a sunny young man who loves outdoor sports."

You Zhi pulled out a chair as he spoke, but as soon as he sat down, he felt a chill. It wasn't just a drop in temperature, but more like the chill of a graveyard late at night.

"Okay, I take it back. You are indeed a psychic."

The other party smiled and didn't mind.

You Zhi called the waiter over, casually ordered a double latte, and then asked, "I wonder what Master Songye wants to talk to me about?"

Matsuba didn't feel surprised that his identity was recognized. Rather, it was incredible that a trainer in Johto District didn't recognize the gym leader in Johto District.

"I've read the report you submitted. You cleared a singularity in Juniper Town."

The specific content of the report can only be seen by administrators, but related brief information is public, such as location and size.

You Zhi said, "Just a few days ago, I got caught up in an accident. I hadn't planned to come into contact with the singularity so early."

"As expected, he's a newcomer recommended by Bekas. He's really extraordinary."

"Does Master Songye know Mr. Bekas?"

"Just call me Songye. Strictly speaking, it wasn't me, but my uncle who had ties to the Croft family. When I was a kid, I met Beccas and his wife at a banquet. Well, she was just my girlfriend at the time. Then my elf reminded me that Beccas's girlfriend had death energy, so out of curiosity, I did a divination... I won't go into the details of the process, but in the end, I gave him a suggestion through my uncle, hoping that he would take his girlfriend to the hospital for a checkup. After that, the two families started to interact more frequently."

You Zhi suddenly realized that the turning point of Bekas's fate happened here. He really had to thank Songye, after all, it was she who prevented him from becoming a villain boss.

"Since you are Mr. Beckas's friend, you are also my friend. Just call me Youzhi. I wonder if there is anything I can do to help you."

"Then I'll get straight to the point. Not long ago, I discovered a place that looks like a singularity, and I hope you can help investigate it."

Chapter 57: Burnt Tower

"I want to ask, why me?"

You Zhi didn't agree carelessly, but instead asked cautiously, "Although there are precedents of success, it's important to know your own limitations. That time, I teamed up with others, not just one person. Furthermore, the Pokémon world we entered was only considered mid-to-low-level. If it were a more dangerous place, you might not be able to come back. Even if you can't go yourself, you can always seek help from other experienced trainers on the forum."

"I'm actually relieved by your being so careful," Matsuba explained. "The area we need to investigate is very strange. Trainers above six stars can't detect any abnormalities after entering. Only trainers below seven stars can trigger it. The specific reason is unknown, so I can't go there myself, and I can't ask other people on the forum for help. I can only ask you, the newcomer."

"What place are you talking about?"

"The Burnt Tower, formerly known as the Bell Tower, was destroyed by a fire over a hundred years ago. Today, only the first floor and the basement remain."

You Zhi asked curiously, "How come the ruins of a tower that burned down over a hundred years ago are still preserved today?"

Songye recalled, "Initially, because it was the place where the gods lived, people were afraid to make any changes without permission. Later... Actually, recently, someone in the city proposed to rebuild the bell tower and put out a bid for the construction team, and then the construction workers mysteriously disappeared.

"At first, I suspected a singularity, but even after searching every inch of the two-story tower, I couldn't find it. Even the elf atlas didn't show any clues. And yet, the disappearances kept happening. Finally, I sought help from the witch, and after a series of complex investigations, I came to this conclusion.

"The singularity does exist, but it senses the fluctuations of spiritual energy from the outside world. If a high-star trainer appears, it will automatically hide, otherwise it will appear. To be honest, this is the first time I've encountered such a situation."

As the other party narrated, Youzhi gradually recalled that this burnt tower was the plot point of encountering the three sacred beasts in the Pokémon game.

According to the game setting, there are two towers in Yuanzhu City, a bell tower and a bell tower, standing on the east and west sides respectively. They were built to commemorate the friendship between humans and Pokémon. The tower on the east side is used to wake up the elves, while the tower on the west side makes the elves sleep. The Ho-Oh lives on the top of the bell tower on the east side.

150 years ago, a lightning struck the tower on the west side, and the tower instantly turned into a sea of ​​fire. The fire burned for three days and three nights. Finally, a heavy rain put out the flames, but three unknown elves were burned to death in the fire. At this time, the King of Phoenix happened to pass by and used his divine power to resurrect them. These three elves were Raigong, Entei and Suicune, and they are called the Three Holy Beasts, also known as the Three Messengers of the King of Phoenix.

In the game, when the player first arrives at the underground level, he will encounter the three sacred beasts. They will fly out of the tower and begin to wander around the city. From then on, the player will have a chance to meet them in the wild grass.

By the way, when entering the Burnt Tower, the protagonist controlled by the player will be forced to fight a battle with a strong enemy.

"You said that tower is where a god lives. Which god is it?"

Songye was stunned for a moment. He had expected Youzhi to ask about information on the singularity, but he hadn't expected him to veer off into such an insignificant topic. But then he realized he might have his own reasons, so he replied, "It's none other than the Winged Dragon, one of the Three Mythical Gods."

You Zhi nodded, this answer was in line with his prediction.

From a genealogical perspective, Ho-Oh is a flying and fire type, while Shenron can both fly and spit fire, so it's most likely a flying and fire type as well. Ho-Oh's prototype is the phoenix, the king of birds, and although Shenron has the word "dragon" in its name, its true form is actually a phoenix, which makes them very similar.

The remaining question is which three elves will be the counterparts of the Three Holy Beasts.

According to the game settings, no one has ever seen the Three Sacred Beasts. Even if someone occasionally encounters them in the wild, they will only regard them as new elves that have never been seen before and will not associate them with Pteranodon.
