Chapter 152 Evolution, Gengar Appears!
"Brother Lin, this devil is eloquent and flattering, a traitor who changes masters like a fugitive, truly a three-surname slave. How could you have brought him under your command?"
"Brother Sword, rest assured. I am not without the ability to judge people. However, the method of refining that this ghost mentioned can indeed improve the quality of items. It is truly amazing."
Furthermore, I've also cast a contract spell on him, so he won't be able to hide any ulterior motives from me in the future, so there's no need to worry so much.
"Oh, right~"
Lin Ye continued to ask, "What is the origin of this cursed doll, and why did it suddenly launch an attack on the northern wilderness of Songshen Mountain? Wasn't everything generally peaceful before?"
Hua Yan laughed strangely, "To be honest, Godfather, the stable situation of the Sacred Mountain before was because there was a 'Master-level' overlord in the east and west respectively."
They maintained a basic balance by distrusting each other and using the northern region as a buffer zone for their power.
But after you defeated that Gengar last time, when I was homeless, I thought of seeking refuge with a ruler, and the first one I chose was actually the one in the western region.
For some reason, when I got there, I was told by an old ghost I knew from years ago that their overlord had been missing for some time.
After that, I sold this information to the Cursed Doll, the overlord of the East. After gaining its trust, I told it that I could upgrade the grade of the "Cursed Symbol".
It promised me that if I could help it upgrade its "Cursed Rune" to a high-quality level, it would assist me in crafting my own high-quality "Cursed Rune," which is why we've been launching such a large-scale attack on other regions.
"I see. But speaking of which, how did that overlord of the eastern region suddenly disappear? Could it be that he couldn't stand the lack of ghostly energy in the mountainside area of Songshen Mountain, or was he captured by someone?"
That means I won't be able to absorb its ghostly essence for the time being.
Forget about all that, let's just make the most of this "Gym Leader-level" Pokémon we just got our hands on.
After saying that, Lin Ye finally began to extract the ghost attribute essence from the cursed doll.
This was his first time extracting energy from a "Master-level" mage, and even at his current peak mage level, the extraction was still extremely slow.
It took about half an hour for a pitch-black energy ball to condense in Lin Ye's palm.
This energy ball was completely different from the small balls taken from those "professional" ghosts before. It was at least twice the size, and its color was an extremely deep and intense purplish-black. The energy fluctuations it emitted made the surrounding air a bit thicker.
"Ghost, come here~" Lin Ye pushed the purplish-black energy ball toward Ghost.
Gastly floated over. It usually grinned and snarled, but at this moment, its large face unusually devoid of any playful expression. Its eyes reflected the light of the purplish-black energy ball, and its expression was serious and focused.
At this time, most of the Pokémon under Lin Yemo's command were close to the "professional" level, and many had even reached the true peak level.
However, compared to other Pokémon, Haunter is the most likely to advance to "Gym Leader" through this energy source.
Because it has one more chance to evolve.
Even if this "Master-level" energy source is not enough to help it break through, it still has the blessing of an evolutionary transformation.
Gastly caught the energy ball with its two ghostly claws, looked down at it, then raised its eyes and grinned at Lin Ye with a huge smile that almost split its face in two. It then suddenly tilted its head back and swallowed the energy ball whole.
The next second, a dazzling silver-white beam of light emanated from Gastly, growing brighter and brighter, illuminating the surrounding mist.
Gradually, an energy vortex formed around Gastly, lifting the surrounding rubble off the ground and pulverizing it in mid-air.
The Snow Fairy was curious and stepped forward to take a look, but was startled back by the astonishing energy fluctuations. She then immediately used her cold air to condense a thin ice shield in front of her.
Gastly gradually transformed in the silvery light, and when the light suddenly dissipated, a brand new Pokémon appeared before Lin Ye's eyes.
Its round body is dark purple, with short and thick limbs, several rows of blunt spikes on its back, and a short, thick tail that sways gently. It is one of the most popular ghost Pokémon—Gengar!
It revealed a sunny yet chilling smile, its enormous mouth seemingly splitting from one ear to the other, revealing a set of clean, even teeth.
Its two scarlet eyes narrowed, reflecting a chilling intent. Its aura was several times stronger than before its evolution, reaching the "Gym Leader level" that was completely on par with Aegislash at the moment.
"Heh~"
Gengar looked down at its hands. They were no longer the translucent, detached mist claws of its Gastly days, but real claws, albeit a bit short.
It first opened its palms, stretched out its claws, then clenched its fist, felt the power of a physical fist, and nodded in satisfaction.
Then, it stretched out its finger and gently poked its belly. Its belly was round, soft, and very elastic. It bounced back immediately after being poked, making a soft "gurgling" sound.
"Pfft~" The Snow Fairy chuckled softly.
Zoroark twisted his waist and said mercilessly, "You ate so much before, and now it's all come out at once. You need to lose weight from now on!"
Gengar bared its teeth and swung its fist at it, while Zoroark quickly hid behind Aegislash, sticking out half its face and sticking out its tongue at Gengar.
Aegislash nodded, satisfied with Gengar's strength: "Good, good, good. Brother Lin has gained another powerful general. Great things are in sight."
The most surprised one was the Flower Rock Monster. It had only just joined Lin Yefang's team when it witnessed this miraculous transformation. How could it not be utterly astonished?
You should know that it has been cultivating alone on Mount Songshen for over a hundred years. Sometimes it wanders around on its own, and sometimes it recognizes a godfather or clings to a powerful figure.
But the fact that someone could take a shortcut to help a Pokémon reach the "Gym Leader" level is still somewhat unbelievable to it.
"Perhaps, this time I really didn't take a godfather for nothing. If I work hard in the future, I can become stronger. And this human is probably the last father I'll ever take on."
"Alright, things are settled here. Let's head to the eastern region and take down the remaining Cursed Doll minions there. Don't let them go to waste."
After that, we'll head to the western wilderness region to see what's going on with the overlord there and whether there's still a chance to take advantage of him.
After saying that, he turned to the ghostly underlings he had previously taken in and said, "You guys did a good job. I can share some of the energy I collect later with you. As for you..."
He pointed to the board: "Come with me to Mount Sacred in a bit, and I'll introduce you to a trainer later."
