The necromancer of the Pokémon world

Chapter 130 Xiao Guang Asks for Help

"Hahaha~ Brother Lin, look, aren't I now one step closer to my goal of rebuilding the empire?"

"Hmph~, you're just a petty person who's gotten ahead of me. You've only broken through the bottleneck before me. With your current strength, you're still not as good as my old earthen tortoise."

The Snow Fairy said sarcastically, "Oh my, you've only just broken through the 'Master Level' threshold and you're already acting all arrogant."

"Have you forgotten that handsome guy named Steven's Metagross? Do you think you could withstand a few of its attacks with your current strength?"

"That's right~, it's just that he broke through the 'Gym Leader' level bottleneck by completing the final evolution."

"Don't forget, I also have a final evolution form that I haven't evolved yet. Once I find the opportunity, I'll surpass you in no time!" Gastly retorted.

"Forget it, forget it. I won't stoop to your level. You're just jealous, but that can't hide the fact that you are now the strongest under Brother Lin's command."

But don't worry, we've all had a tough journey. I'll lead you to capture some powerful old ghosts, and then use Brother Lin's secret techniques to help you improve, so you can also experience that level of power.

"Haha~, although I can't understand what they're saying, it seems really lively when your Pokémon gather together, Lin Ye." Nachi covered her mouth and laughed.

"Alright, alright~, all of you, shut up. Brother Sword, let me see what other techniques you've mastered besides 'Iron Wall' and 'Holy Sword'."

"Alright, Brother Lin, just you wait and see!"

The Aegislash leaped upwards, transforming into a sword-wielding form with a shield, and then unleashed a series of attacks including "Shadow Claw," "Revenge," "Shadow Ball," "Combo Slash," "Psychic Blade," and "Cannon."

Finally, it sheathed its sword and switched back to the "King's Shield" form, a skill that every Aegislash can master after evolution, and the most core move of its kind.

When the sword form uses "King's Shield", it enters an untargetable state similar to "Guard", and then transforms back into the shield form with super strong defense.

If the "King's Shield" is hit by an opponent's contact attack while its protection is active, the opponent's attack power will be reduced by one level.

If you can use this skill effectively, you might even be able to defeat a powerful enemy with a higher energy level than yourself!

"As expected of a high-grade 'Dark Stone,' it provides a significant boost, and I suspect it even increased the potential of the Aegislash itself."

Lin Ye nodded in satisfaction, but then became serious, his eyes filled with anticipation and plans for the future.

Becoming a "master" is certainly something to be proud of, but Lin Ye has now witnessed the power possessed by those aristocratic and wealthy families.

Just like that arrogant Miranda I met before, if I plan to establish a gym in Lilycove City, I will definitely be suppressed by him.

However, Lin Ye believed that with his abilities, he could quickly raise all the Pokémon to the "Gym Leader" level. At that time, even if the Ruri family put pressure on him, he would be able to resist to some extent.

Moreover, there are other powerful clubs in Fengyuan, so there must be a principle of mutual checks and balances.

How could they just stand by and watch the Ruri family devour such a huge pie as Shuijing City? Wouldn't that break the original balance of power?

Therefore, even if Miranda from the Liuli family really wanted to compete with him for the position of Water Pavilion Master, her family would certainly not be able to openly stand up and fully support her.

"Alright, now that we have everything, let's hurry back. I can't wait to get a Togekiss."

...............

When Lin Ye and Naqi returned to the territory of Shuijing City, it was already dark.

Lin Ye was about to call Qiao Yijing to let her know he was safe when he took out his phone and saw that there were several missed calls, all pointing to one person—Prantina.

Because the two had been in the cave and Forest 121 the whole time, they only received the signal now.

"Huh? Why did Hikaru make so many calls? Did something happen?"

Lin Ye dialed the number for her, and Xiao Guang's somewhat anxious voice came from the other end of the phone:

"Lin Ye, you finally got through on the phone. I don't have time to come and help out in this emergency."

"What? Could it be that Garchomp from the mine has come back again?!"

"No, it's not that, but it's a hundred times more disgusting!" Xiao Guang's voice was filled with gritted teeth, each word seeming to be squeezed out from between his teeth:

"Do you remember when I told you last time that our company planned to jointly develop and operate the diamonds produced from those small diamonds with the city of Suijing?

"The development application was already in the final stage, and everything was going smoothly, but today the city hall suddenly stopped it. They said a third party has raised objections to the mining rights and it needs to be reviewed again!"

"Do you know who the third party is? It's the Hoenn powerhouse—the Ruri family!" Hikari spoke so fast it was like she was launching an "air slash"!

"The Liuli family! It's the Liuli family again. They're always so busy. They seem to be involved everywhere."

"But what about the Bellritz family behind you? They're a top-tier family in Sinnoh, surely they can't be powerless to resist?"

"Hey~, no matter how strong our Bellric family is, we are still a family from Sinnoh. How can our connections in Hoenn compare to those of the Ryukyu family?"

They have been rooted in Hoenn for hundreds of years, and their operations in Lilycove City are ubiquitous, penetrating from the municipal level to the grassroots departments.

However, after some negotiations, the Liuli family finally relented and agreed to let us develop the project together with them.

But that's not all. When finalizing the details of the cooperation today, they imposed additional terms, wanting to establish their dominance in the future cooperation through Pokémon battles.

Did you know that they actually proposed to have a doubles battle today, with each side sending two trainers, and the field must be a water-based field that they are good at?

What's even more outrageous is that participants can't be over twenty-five years old, and the matches must be completed today. This is clearly not giving us time to send top experts from Unova headquarters!

"Hehe, the Liuli family is really domineering. They've already treated Shuijing City as their own."

If they're like this in Waterfall City, then imagine what Liuli City, which their family has run for hundreds of years, is like—it's probably already been turned into their own independent kingdom.

Thinking about this, Lin Ye finally understood the purpose of Xiao Guang's call and said:

"I understand, you want me to compete in your place, right?"

"Hmm~, I don't know anyone here, and I can't find anyone else but you."

"I promise you, as for the Liuli family, Evolution will probably be my future rival. It's good to have a match beforehand. Send me the location."

"That's great! I knew you were the most reliable, Lin Ye. Regardless of the outcome of this battle, I will definitely present a great gift on behalf of the Bellritz family."

"Don't be so polite with me. By the way, where's Kengo? Shouldn't he be the one rushing to do this kind of thing?"

"Don't mention that guy. This morning he suddenly came to the company looking for me, panting. I don't know what got into him."

At first, I thought he had heard about the Liuli family blocking our approval process and came to volunteer.

As a result, she blocked my face and started crying and wailing, saying a bunch of vulgar things, such as slutty parties and group sex, it was disgusting!

"Wait a minute, isn't he your devoted admirer? What triggered this?!"
