Mind Master of the Elf World

Chapter 492 The Stone Slab Appears! (Seeking Monthly Tickets!)

"Well"

Jinghe's eyelids trembled slightly, and after letting out a soft groan, she slowly sat up.

"Ouch~~"

Ice Nine-Tail thoughtfully placed its tail behind it, creating a simple backrest support.

"Gah!"

Lugia seemed to have woken up before him, but considering that Jing He was still asleep, she didn't move.

It's clear that Lugia has fully regained her composure and, with Jing He's help, has minimized the short-term negative effects of the Dark Sphere and the Red Chains.

Jinghe had come into contact with both the Dark Sphere and the Red Chain, so she was most familiar with their characteristics.

However, Lugia's feathers did not turn back to silver; only the black had been largely dissipated. This shows that Lugia's psychological problems cannot be completely resolved with just one counseling session.

Meanwhile, through her conversation with Lugia, Jinghe gained a general understanding of the whole situation.

While Lugia and Little Lugia were playing in the sea, they were targeted. The perpetrators stirred up underwater turmoil and chaos, and kidnapped Little Lugia while Lugia was trying to calm things down.

Then, using Lugia as a starting point, they caused Lugia to encounter the red chains.

The red chains seemed to possess a special emotional power, amplifying Lugia's negative emotions and causing immediate and significant turmoil.

Unable to reach Lugia in a short time, the enemy had no choice but to temporarily disperse and retreat. Lugia, meanwhile, hid inside the Temple of the Sea, attempting to suppress the power of the red chains.

It was during that time that the handsome man took advantage of the chaos to kidnap little Lugia in order to enter the Temple of the Sea and find Manaphy.

Lugia knew the approximate location of Manaphy's egg, so she tried to use the power of ocean currents to move the egg away, but it was still found by the ghost.

After that, it was what Jinghe and the others went through.

The red chains amplified Lugia's negative emotions, while the dark orb created even stronger negative emotions within him. Combined, these two forces caused Lugia to lose control of himself.

Although he has regained his senses, the negative emotions he felt are still suppressed. If he cannot release them, Lugia may very well turn into a monster like Yveltal who only knows how to destroy.

Fortunately.

Jinghe, a Pokémon psychologist, helped Lugia process some of its emotions; the rest could only be resolved slowly through repeated guidance.

However, Jinghe believed that even in Dark Lugia's berserk state, hearing Little Lugia's voice would make it stop.

If Lugia and Lugia can live a stable and peaceful life for a period of time, and with his guidance, recovery will not be difficult.

Jing He reached out and gently stroked Lugia's smooth head.

to be frank.

In fact, Lugia did nothing wrong, yet he suffered the greatest pain; this is a problem on the human side.

"Thank you for your hard work," Jing He said softly.

"Gahhh~~"

Lugia lowered her eyes.

Lugia wasn't surprised by this, because it had already seen some problems during the Burning Tower incident hundreds of years ago.

That's why I left Enju City.

But this incident also made Lugia realize something.

Among humans, there are both evil and good. For example, Jing He, as well as Shirona, Gadriya, Genji, and the handsome guy in this operation, cannot be generalized.

Just like in Pokémon, there are kind and innocent Pokémon, as well as evil and despicable Pokémon.

"If possible, I'd like to wait until my child is a little older so you can help them better understand the world."

Lugia's voice echoed in Jing He's mind.

In this incident, Lugia also experienced danger, capture, and rescue, and witnessed her mother being captured and exploited by humans.

Fortunately, because Lugia was rescued by Jinghe, it spent most of its time happily with him and his Pokémon, and did not suffer too much psychological trauma.

Therefore, Lugia hopes that when Lugia is a little older, Jinghe can take it to see the human world and the world of trainers, and to learn about and experience more things.

In any case, compared to the long lifespan of mythical beasts, human lifespan is short. This period of learning will surely allow Lugia to grow stronger.

Upon hearing Lugia's words, Jing He was startled.

What he subconsciously thought of was
If even the pseudo-legendary Larvitar can eat this much, how terrifying must Lugia's appetite be, as a legendary Pokémon cub?

Fortunately, it's in the future.

Little Lugia is still very young and has almost no fighting ability.

Jinghe estimates that he will be able to earn even more in the future, right?

And if Lugia is "fostering" the little guy, shouldn't she give him some "milk money"?
This was a gesture of friendship belonging to Lugia, so after a brief moment of surprise, Jinghe accepted it with a smile.

"If it doesn't object, I have no problem."

It's a mythical beast, after all!

Moreover, it's a genuine legendary Pokémon. Although the authority over legendary Pokémon may still be in Lugia's hands, it's still quite prestigious, isn't it?
Of course.

What will happen to Lugia if it grows up a bit and stays with me, and is raised by Gengar and the others?
cough cough.

"It should be very happy."

Lugia's eyes softened as she glanced in the direction of little Lugia.

As a mother, it could naturally sense Lugia's affection for Jinghe and Jinghe's Pokémon.

That's why I asked Jinghe for help.

"Waaaaah~~"

Seemingly sensing Lugia and Jinghe's gaze, the little Lugia, who was playing with Gengar and the others, waved at them with a grin.

Seeing this, Jinghe and Lugia both smiled.

"Let's get back to you," Jing He changed the subject.

He sat up straight and looked at Lugia lying on the ground. "Your condition has stabilized, but it's best not to run around for the time being. Let yourself calm down completely."

Lugia already has some post-traumatic stress disorder. Although he intervened in time and minimized the aftereffects, it won't get better immediately.

So, after a brief pause, Jinghe continued:

"In that case, I'll come one day a week for a short-term treatment course of one month, and then..."

"Actually, it doesn't have to be that complicated. You can communicate with me using feathers."

hum-

As Lugia spoke, the silver feathers on Jing He's body glowed faintly once more.

The silver feather previously lacked a lot of "liveliness" compared to the rainbow feather, but after Lugia infused it with power again, this feather became a bridge for Jinghe to communicate with Lugia.

"That makes things convenient."

For Jinghe, not having to make a trip to the sea every week is naturally the best thing.

"However, considering your condition, I will still need to come once a month for the first three months to communicate face-to-face in order to better understand your situation."

As a Pokémon psychologist, Jinghe has always been quite serious and responsible towards her "patients".

"Thank you for your help."

Lugia nodded.

"Oh, by the way, consider this a thank-you gift."

At this moment, a faint glimmer of superpowers appeared in Lugia's eyes. Then, a hole suddenly appeared in the center of the island, and a stone about the size of a fist, surrounded by an earthy yellow aura, slowly floated to Jing He's side.

"Yo-yo?"

Upon seeing the rock, Young Gilas, who was playing nearby, had his eyes light up and drool dripping from his mouth, as if it held a great attraction for him.

Ok?
When Jinghe saw the stone, her heart skipped a beat.

"This is."

He reached out and gently grasped the stone, and even as a human, he felt the surging energy of the terrestrial system.

"Earth Slabs?!"

Jing He's pupils contracted, and her voice involuntarily rose a few decibels.

He looked at the object in his hand with disbelief, astonished that Lugia would actually produce such a thing.

The stone tablets weren't all in Arceus's hands.
Not right either.

Earth, water, grass, lightning, and dragons were separated by Arceus and combined to form the "Stone of Life," which he then gave to humankind. This is the source of Arceus's anger in the theatrical film "Arceus Overpowers Time."

This is also one of the fundamental reasons why Arceus is now awakening, as Jing He speculated.

Even so, the five stone tablets should have been combined to form the "Life Gem," and it's impossible for them to have remained untouched.
Just as he was wondering, Lugia smiled slightly and spoke.

"The stone tablets are fragments formed from the birth of the universe."

As soon as it said that, Jinghe understood what it meant.

Since they were formed from fragments of the universe, they naturally varied in size. The larger ones were taken by Arceus, while the smaller, less noticeable ones were scattered around the world.
Then he thought of more things.

For example.

Since Arceus later possessed all the tablets, where did the remnants of the Galactic Team find a "Fireball Tablet" from, attempting to use it to open a "time portal" and rescue the Galactic Team's leader, Sun?

For example
The Pokémon Silvally, known as "True Arceus" and created by the Aether Foundation in the Alola region, uses a storage disk that changes its type, which essentially utilizes the principle of stone slab fragments.

For true attribute transformation, you have to look to my Silvally; Arceus is nothing more than a "little Silvally."

So where did they get those stone slab fragments from?

so.

The existence of stone slabs and stone fragments is not contradictory.

This is something left behind by nature.

However, no matter what, this fragment of the earth's stone slab is definitely a valuable item!

"Thank you."

After a brief moment's thought, Jing He decided to accept it. After all, ground-type stone slab fragments weren't of much use to Lugia.

Lugia seemed very pleased to see that he accepted it.

The two continued chatting for a while, and seeing that Lugia's condition had indeed stabilized, Jinghe prepared to leave.

There's still a huge mess at sea.

The rented sailboat was cracked by Larvitar's kick, Pokémon Hunter J and the Ghost Captain, the Ghost Pirates' huge submarine, and the Ghost's identity and origin.
"No, the Alliance will definitely have to wreck the ship. That huge submarine is worth a lot of money. We can't just let it all be 'swallowed', can we?" Thinking of this, Jinghe immediately called for Dragonite.

"Then I won't see you off."

It would be best for Lugia not to leave the island for now.

"Buwoowooo."

Little Lugia, on the other hand, immediately showed great reluctance when she learned that Jing He and the others were leaving.

It thought Lugia had brought Jinghe and the others to live with them for a while; little Lugia had almost finished arranging accommodations for Gengar and the others.

Looking at the little Lugia lying on her, Jing He smiled, lifted one of its paws, and said:
"It's not like we're not coming back. We'll be back and see if you've grown then."

"Buwoowoo, oh?"

Little Lugia, held upside down, showed no displeasure, only blinking her eyes and looking at Jing He and the others with surprise.

Are you coming again?

Jinghe put it down, rubbed its little head, and said softly, "Luggia needs you more now."

Upon hearing this, Lugia was taken aback, then nodded emphatically.

Although reluctant, Jinghe was right; it needed to spend time with its mother now.

"Next time I come, I'll bring you some fun things," Jinghe said with a smile.

When it comes to passing the time, there are obviously more human-related things.

Jinghe left behind a large number of energy cubes and some medicine to help Lugia recover.

Then, he took the little guys, who were also somewhat reluctant to leave, especially Young Giras, and flew into the swirling clouds under the watchful eyes of Lugia and Little Lugia, before departing.

As long as he doesn't reveal the island, it's highly unlikely to be found.

"Slow down, slow down, we're not in a hurry, Dragonite!"

On the vast sea.

Unlike Dan-Di, Jinghe and Kuailong didn't get lost and quickly returned to the center of the previous turmoil.

After a brief period of recovery, the Temple of the Sea has once again sunk to the bottom of the sea.

The Temple of the Sea has a unique mechanism; it drifts around in the ocean, making it difficult for those without precise location information to find.

Even if it is found, Manaphy's egg is inside the Temple of the Sea, so it cannot be entered. It is estimated that the only chance to see the Temple of the Sea will be after Manaphy hatches and escapes.

Besides Jinghe's sailboat and the Ghost Pirates' giant submarine, there were dozens of Alliance ships on the sea, including the largest one, Yuanzhi's ship.

The Alliance members were forcing the Ghost Pirates out of the submarine, while Cynthia, Cattleya, Genji, and the handsome guy were on the deck of Genji's vehicle.

They spotted Jinghe returning immediately.

As they slowly landed on the deck, everyone visibly breathed a sigh of relief.

“You’re back.” Cynthia stood up and took the weak, helpless, and pitiful Rotom back.

"Mm." Jing He nodded gently. "Thank you for your hard work."

“We should go back.” Seeing that Gadriya had also stood up, Cynthia said with a smile.

Now that Team Galactic has been brought up, there's a whole host of things to deal with in the Sinnoh region.

Kikuno Tenno did not come this time.

On one hand, it's inconvenient for the Ground-type Elite Four member Kikuno to move around on the open sea; on the other hand, it also serves as a backup in Sinnoh.

Now, following the clues, Sinnoh is bound to make another big move.

"Don't you want to rest a bit more?" Jing He opened her mouth, and finally uttered a sentence.

Cynthia smiled and said, "I've had enough rest."

"All right."

"Remember to come to Sinnoh next time."

"must!"

Gardeja hugged Cynthia's arm, wrinkled her nose at Jing He, snorted softly, and then her superpowers enveloped her and Cynthia before they disappeared from the deck.

"Jinghe."

At that moment, Genji, who was sitting on the deck with a bandage wrapped around his chest, suddenly spoke.

"Ok?"

Genji's face showed a hint of mockery and teasing as he laughed:

"We in Hoenn warmly welcome Sinnoh."

After saying that, he raised an eyebrow at Jing He.

The meaning is self-evident.

We, Hoenn, are a magnanimous and inclusive people, and we wouldn't mind having another Shinonome wife.

Imagine if we could get Cynthia to Hoenn.
Jinghe, Daigo, Cynthia, and Mikuri Genji felt like they could laugh in their dreams.

Jing He's expression faltered for a moment, then she gave him a disgruntled look and couldn't help but say:

"Disrespectful to elders."

Then he plopped down next to Genji.

"Ha ha ha ha--"

Yuan Zhi wasn't angry at all. He laughed heartily, then put his arm around Jing He's shoulder and asked directly:
"Well, have you thought it through?"

He asked about Jinghe's succession.

The fact that he asked Jinghe to attend the meeting in his place last time was actually a way of showing his attitude.

For the sake of the young people, Genji had absolutely no desire for power; he was willing to give way.

"What are you thinking about?"

Jinghe pursed her lips, pretending to be ignorant even though she knew the truth.

It's not that he didn't want to be one of the Four Heavenly Kings.

Honestly, which trainer wouldn't want to be one of the Elite Four?
It's a symbol of a region, representing strength and authority; its name alone is impressive.

But.
How to be one of the Four Heavenly Kings is also a question.

With the current Hoenn Alliance, Jinghe can guarantee that once he takes over Genji's position, an overwhelming amount of work will follow.

Otherwise, Bonnie would have wanted to pull him up too.

But if that happens, it would be putting the cart before the horse for Jinghe.

He wanted to be like Cynthia in the future, a member of the Elite Four who could slack off whenever he wanted and take a vacation whenever he wanted, unlike Gosho, who was either at work or on his way to work every day.

Cynthia can slack off, but Wusong can't!

so.

The best way is
Let Daigo and Michael take over first, and once they've finished their work, I'll take on a "non-essential" position like Daigo.

Of course, this doesn't mean you shouldn't take responsibility, but at least don't end up like Wusong.

As for saying.

Daigo, Michael, and the others have taken care of all the work and positions, so there's no room for Jinghe, but he doesn't mind.

Anyway, the champion is my student. Isn't that more prestigious than simply being the champion?
At that time, the Johto Champion, the Kanto Elite Four member, the Sinnoh Champion, and the Elite Four members will all be our friends, and the Hoenn Champion will all be our students. What does that mean?
Champion Mentor!

Besides, given his current reputation, it doesn't really make much difference whether he's one of the Four Heavenly Kings or not.

As for the future crises in the Hoenn region, such as the chaos caused by Groudon and Kyogre, he had a clear understanding of them.

Can't hide.

Since we can't avoid it, we might as well "enjoy" it.

Genji was unaware of Jinghe's "mental journey," but he suddenly seemed to understand and said:
"That's right, you still have to participate in the competition."

Junior Masters World Championship!
Once you become one of the Four Heavenly Kings, you can no longer participate in competitions.

"what?"

How did you connect this to the competition?

However, Jing He was indeed thinking of participating in the competition and giving it a try.

Although it is very difficult, the champion will receive a cash prize of 50 million Alliance Coins, as well as various materials, items and other rewards.

Even if you don't win the championship, the runner-up, third place, top eight, etc., all come with substantial rewards.

This was extremely tempting for Jing He, who often teetered on the edge of poverty!
However, there will definitely be a lot of participants in this competition, and they will all be extremely strong, like A-Du, Daigo, and Cynthia. Jinghe estimates that they will all participate as well.

That was a difficult competition.
"I need to intensify my training," Jing He thought to herself, then changed the subject:
"Old man, we need to thoroughly investigate the identity and background of that guy called Ghost."

"What leads do you have?" Genji asked in return.

Jing He pursed her lips and gently adjusted her monocle. "I think it's highly likely related to the Galar region."

Galar region?
Genji looked surprised.

This is quite a distance from Hoenn.

"I'll keep an eye on it." Genji then agreed.

"By the way," Jing He suddenly said, seemingly referring to something, "Grandpa, this submarine is quite valuable."

The big fox and the little fox looked at each other and smiled.

Hey.
