Chapter 151 A Servile Traitor, Flower Rock Monster
"Why don't you just leave your ghostly energy source behind?"
As soon as the words were spoken, the cursed doll's eyes twitched, and it let out a vicious, eerie laugh, saying, "Fine, fine~ I didn't expect that my voluntary concession would be taken as weakness and vulnerability. Fine, fine, you forced me to do this, you human."
As soon as he finished speaking, the cursed doll extended a pair of "shadow claws" and slashed down at the Aegislash monster's head.
The latter let out a cold laugh, then flicked his dark gold ribbon and used the "Shadow Claw" to meet the attack.
However, although the two Pokémon have similar energy levels, their base attack stats are quite different.
The two "Shadow Claws" were locked in a stalemate for a while, until finally the "Shadow Claw" belonging to the Aegislash monster tore through the black giant claw opposite it. Although its own size was also reduced considerably, it still advanced towards the Cursed Doll.
The latter quickly conjured a "Shadow Ball" and threw it, completely destroying the remaining power of the "Shadow Claw" that was attacking.
But the next moment, it felt the air behind it being cut by a sharp gust of wind. Before it could react, the sword beam of the Shield Sword Monster, wrapped in dark energy, struck it straight down.
"Gah~~"
The cursed doll let out a miserable howl, fell to the ground, and immediately transformed into a shadow, fleeing for its life.
However, it wasn't much faster, and Aegislash, being a Ghost-type with unpredictable movements, immediately used Shadow to catch up and get entangled with it.
The two shadowy figures rubbed against the ground fiercely, scraping off a layer of the earth, before revealing their true forms.
The cursed doll seized an opening and unleashed a "Piercing Strike" from below, piercing straight at the Shielded Sword Monster.
The latter, however, neither dodged nor evaded, but directly switched to the "King's Shield". The pitch-black energy spike struck its body but passed right through it as if it were a phantom, without causing any damage.
Immediately afterwards, without switching forms, the Aegislash charged forward in its super-defensive Shield Form.
The cursed doll was shocked and threw out a "Shadow Ball", which hit the Shielded Sword Monster but did not cause fatal damage. Instead, the monster switched to sword form after getting close and cleaved the doll away with a single blade.
The cursed doll howled incessantly after landing and was unable to get up for a while, appearing to be severely injured.
This astonishing combat power terrified the ghostly minions behind the cursed doll, who scattered and fled in all directions.
Lin Ye wouldn't let these mobile energy sources escape for nothing. With a command, the Pokémon split up and set off.
They didn't make things difficult for the "excellent" or lower-level followers, but only targeted the "professional" deserters to intercept them, since there wasn't much to be gained from the former.
Soon, they defeated most of the "professional" henchmen brought by the cursed doll, capturing a total of about ten, including the "Flower Rock Monster" that had escaped last time!
Finally, after the Pokémon cleared out the Cursed Doll's minions, they joined forces to defeat the latter, which was already at a disadvantage, thus ending the battle completely.
Seeing that all the Ghost Pokémon had lost their ability to battle, Lin Ye immediately took action, walked to the side of a Dusknoir, squatted down, and easily extracted its source energy.
When the spirit of the wandering spirit became transparent and dim, it was difficult to extract energy. Lin Ye then threw the extracted energy source to Zoroark for it to absorb, and then walked to a Haunter and repeated the same action.
After he extracted the ghostly energy from each of them and then distributed it equally among the Pokémon except for Aegislash, Lin Ye and his companions' levels almost all rose to the peak of "professional" level.
Lin Ye left the Rock Golem for last. Its true form, a stone, was firmly held down by the "Shadow Claw" extending from Mimikyu's hide. It watched helplessly as the ghosts had their decades-long, even centuries-old, energy drained from them, leaving them all with dim, weakened souls. One of them pleaded in a terrified voice, "B-boss, we're old acquaintances! I even gave you a 'Curse Charm' when we first met. Please spare me this time!"
Lin Ye's lips curled into a smile as he took down the "Curse Symbol" that he had previously used to refine and upgrade the Spirit Stone by extracting the soul power of other Ghost Pokémon. He said, "Was that one you willingly given away? Well, I'm not saying I can't give you a chance, but it depends on whether you can provide me with something that interests you!"
The reason he left the flower rock monster until last was to scare it and intimidate it, so that he could get some information out of it that interested him.
As Lin Ye expected, after witnessing its cruel methods against Ghost Pokémon, the Rockruff immediately cowered. Before Lin Ye could even ask, it blurted out, "You're asking about this 'Cursed Symbol,' right? To be honest, I accidentally discovered a method in an ancient ruin to absorb the soul power of Ghost Pokémon to upgrade the 'Cursed Symbol'."
That's why we had that first meeting.
However, if you're interested, I'm willing to follow you from now on and help you completely upgrade this "Cursed Talisman" to high quality.
"Oh, so you're following me? I suppose you used the same excuse you gave to Cursed Doll, or even Gengar, who was defeated by me long ago."
"No, they're not the same! How can those demons and monsters compare to you, boss? Not only are you highly skilled, but you also have many powerful generals under your command. I truly admire you."
Actually, I, Hua, have also suffered a lot. I've drifted through half my life without ever meeting a wise ruler. If you, sir, do not abandon me today, I, Hua, am willing to become your godfather.
"Bah! The saying goes that a loyal minister does not serve two masters. You, a Japanese devil, have successively recognized Gengar, Cursed Doll, and Brother Lin as your adoptive fathers. You are simply shameless and a traitor to three masters."
"This Sword and Shield master may not know that the Gengar was violent and would often take his anger out on me; the Cursed Doll even treated me like a laborer, forcing me to refine the 'Cursed Symbol'."
In fact, Hua had long wanted to escape their clutches, but he couldn't find an opportunity and was forced to recognize his enemies as his father.
Having witnessed your divine power today, I, Hua, am utterly convinced and sincerely acknowledge you as my godfather. From this day forward, I will serve you faithfully, even unto death!
"Your flattery skills are better than your fighting skills."
"Father, you flatter me. I was merely expressing my true feelings."
Lin Ye continued to play with the "Curse Talisman," remained silent for two seconds, and then suddenly formed a strange hand seal with his right hand. He then pointed a finger, and a beam of black light shot out, landing on the stone where the Flower Rock Monster resided.
Instantly, countless eerie runes spread out. The Flower Rock Monster instinctively resisted, but Lin Ye stopped it, saying, "If you want to live, don't make any rash moves."
Although it didn't know what kind of method this was, judging from the human's behavior just now, it knew that from this moment on, its life was truly in the human's hands.
