Mind Master of the Elf World

Chapter 732 Why don't you two live together? (Two chapters combined, please vote!)
The Ultimate Cave.

The turbulent currents of space swirled and converged into a spiral-shaped passage, through which Jinghe and his companions, riding Pokémon, swiftly traversed.

To be fair, the Aether Foundation's research on Ultra Beasts and Ultra Space is quite impressive. Jing He and the others, dressed in specially made suits, were completely unaffected by the spatial turbulence of the "Ultimate Hole".

Moreover, at the moment the "Ultimate Hole" opened, the mysterious aura released by Kosmom, who entered at the same time, also isolated the influence of the "Ultimate Hole" to a certain extent and further stabilized the "Ultimate Hole".

"Hollow muscles!"

The burr mosquito shouted excitedly.

Judging from its expression, you can tell that the "ultimate space" is almost here.

Soon, in Jing He and the others' sight, the vortex in front of them came to an end, and a gray world gradually appeared in their view.

hum-

They continued flying at high speed, and after a spatial fluctuation, Jinghe and the others successfully flew out of the "Ultimate Cave" and arrived in a dark world.

Everything around was gray and dimly lit; there was no sun, moon, or even stars in the sky.

If it weren't for the stones around that emitted a dim light, this would have been a world completely swallowed by darkness.

Visibility is extremely low.

However, with the help of these glowing stones, one can still barely see the surroundings.

All around were floating, irregular islands, haphazardly suspended in the air.

If you didn't know better, you'd think you'd inexplicably stumbled into Giratina's "World of Destruction," except even in the "World of Destruction," the light wouldn't be this dim.

"Where is this?" Lila looked around and couldn't help but ask.

"Hollow muscles?"

In fact, not only Lila, but also the Bulbous Mosquito, the Paper Sword, and the Four-Jagdala all looked blank.

The leader of the Four-Jagnid Dragons explained, "The Ultra Space is extremely vast, so even we are not familiar with every place."

“These islands are made of crystal, not soil or metal.”

Sakaki, who was half-squatting on the ground, gently touched the ground and said in a calm tone.

crystal?

Jing He nodded thoughtfully.

If it were precious minerals or diamonds, Bangiras would have already escaped, and if it were metal, Brigitte would definitely escape as well.

But these two little guys are behaving themselves right now, which means they are definitely just crystals.

Also.

Here, one seems to lose neither physical strength nor the passage of time.
and many more!

Jinghe suddenly realized.

"here it is"

But before he could finish speaking, Sakaki shouted, "Rosamune, what are you doing!"

I saw.

Chairwoman Lusamine was standing in front of a huge, strange crystal, slowly placing her hand on it.

next second.

Gollum-

A sound like flowing water, or like the movement of wriggling slime, was heard as an Ultra Beast resembling a jellyfish "squeezed" out from the crystal pillar in front of Lusamine.

“UB01: Parasite?!” Lila exclaimed in surprise.

The so-called "UB01: Parasite" is actually the first Ultra Beast to be discovered, Nihilego!

Nihilego has a body similar to a bell-shaped jellyfish, with white six-pointed star markings around its semi-transparent upper umbrella surface. The wavy edge of the umbrella is bright blue, and its tentacles hang down like skirts or hands and feet.

"I really want to," Lusamine slowly turned around, a nervous, crumbling, and somewhat excited smile on her face.

Gollum—

The moment the words were spoken, the Nihilego that emerged from the crystal immediately attached itself to Lusamine!
They encountered Nihilego as soon as they arrived at the "Ultimate Space," and unsurprisingly, Lusamine was possessed by Nihilego.

This family really does have a close relationship with Xu Wu Yi De. This thought flashed through Jing He's mind subconsciously.

In the anime, Lusamine was also possessed by Nihilego and taken into the "Ultra Space," which led to Ash and Gladion's rescue.

Lusamine's husband, Moen, also encountered a different colored Nihilego after getting lost in the "Ultimate Space," and lived with it, treating it as his daughter and naming it "Lillie."

In the end, Moen regained his memories, and the heteromorphic Nihilego named "Lillie" was captured by Gladion.

As for Lillie, needless to say, her memories were sealed by Zaobo, which was due to the sudden attack by Nihilego, leading to the subsequent series of events.

so.

The Lusamine family has a rather karmic connection with Nihilego, an ultimate monster.

At the same time, after seeing Nihilego Ido appear, Jing He's suspicions were completely confirmed.

This is the "Ultimate Deep Sea" within the "Ultimate Space," the habitat of Ultra Beasts like Nihilego, their territory!
"Oh no! Chairperson Lusamine has been parasitized!" Lila shouted. "UB01: Parasite, Nihilego, is said to be able to possess humans and Pokémon, making them go berserk, but the specific reasons and conditions for possession are currently unknown."

The UB Countermeasures Department has some knowledge of Ultra Beasts, but not in great depth.

Especially for Ultra Beasts like Nihilego, which they had never encountered before, all the information came from the Aether Foundation.

“It’s tension and fear,” Jing He added to the “conditions” Lila mentioned.

“Nervousness and fear?” Lila was taken aback.

Jinghe turned to look at her. "So Lila, don't be nervous or afraid. No matter what happens, I'm here."

As he spoke, he gestured for Lila to look around.

When Lila looked over instinctively, her face paled instantly.

do not know when.

The surrounding gray world was filled with countless Nihilegos floating around, their numbers incalculable.

So many Nihilistic Idos.
"Gengar!" Gengar grinned and gave Lila a thumbs up.

Don't be afraid, we're here for you.

Lila is indeed capable of becoming the Superintendent General of the International Police in a short period of time, and is in charge of the "UB Countermeasures Department" and also serves as the Grand Commander of the Battle Frontier. Her mental fortitude is quite strong.

After a few deep breaths, her expression gradually calmed down. As she threw out a Poké Ball to summon Alakazam, she nodded slightly to Jing He.

While strong mental fortitude is one aspect, the presence of Teacher Jinghe certainly gave Lila the confidence to face anything without fear.

Her change in mindset caused the few Nihilegos that had been surrounding her to gradually loosen their stance.

Lila is temporarily safe, but Lusamine has been possessed by Nihilego.

After possessing Lusamine, the color and form of the Nihilego immediately underwent a huge change.

Its upper umbrella covered Lusamine's head, and its transparent body allowed Jing He and the others to still see Lusamine's expression. However, its original white body had turned into a deep black, adding a touch of eeriness.

Those tentacles even opened eerie eyes, sending chills down one's spine.

"Teacher Jinghe, Mr. Sakaki, Miss Lila!"

Lusamine looked at Jing He and the other two with excitement, and she was even able to speak.

She shouted almost frantically, "Go explore the 'Ultimate Space'! I've found what I've been looking for! This is the Ultimate Beast I've been searching for!"

"President Lusamine! Calm down, don't let it control you!" Lila shouted.

“Strictly speaking, this isn’t control, is it?” Sakaki said with interest as he watched the scene unfold.

"indeed."

Jing He nodded.

"Novice releases a neurotoxin that transforms feelings of unease and tension into happiness and excitement. Furthermore, Nicholas does not control its host but amplifies some of the host's deepest thoughts and provides them with adequate protection."

Lila didn't dwell on why Teacher Jinghe knew so much about Xu Wu Yide; she simply said:

"Then what should we do?"

Sakaki said:

"If that's the case, then the more we attack this Nihilego, the more it will drain the energy of its host until the host dies. On the contrary, if we don't attack, the host can still live well?"

Jinghe genuinely admired Sakaki.

With just this little bit of information, they made such an accurate judgment.

“That’s right, and Nihilego only reveals its true strength after it has been parasitized.”

"The stronger the desire of the parasitized one, the stronger Nihilego Ido will become?" Sakaki asked, but his tone was quite certain.

He laughed and said, "An ultimate beast with an 'idealistic' nature, such abilities are truly rare."

Lila was speechless.

Teacher Jinghe and Mr. Sakaki each offered their own perspectives, thoroughly analyzing Kyōgo Ito.

But both of them were too calm.
Even though there are so many Nihilegos around, staying calm and composed is the best option. But can we just watch as Lusamine is taken away by the Nihilegos?
Judging from their conversation, it seems that the more they attack, the more they will hurt Chairwoman Lusamine. By not taking any extreme actions, they can better protect Chairwoman Lusamine.
Why is it so contradictory?

Seemingly noticing Lila's expression, Sakaki said in a calm tone:

"Don't be nervous. Normally, that's true, but as long as it's a living thing, whether it's an Ultra Beast or a Pokémon, it has a limit to what it can bear. Even 'idealism' has its limits."

As he spoke, he looked at Jing He.

Jing He nodded slightly, "Rock type and Poison type."

"really."

A smile appeared on Sakaki's face. "No wonder there's crystal all around and no soil."

Four times weaker than ground-based systems.

next moment.

Then Giovanni threw a Poké Ball at Nihilego in mid-air.

The Poké Ball traced a straight line through the air at incredible speed, and suddenly opened as it approached Nihilego, shooting out a beam of red light.

"Nido, 100,000 horsepower!"

Amidst the red light, a powerful Nidoran charged out without the slightest hesitation, carrying an extremely strong ground-type energy. Before Nihilego could react at all, it crashed into Nihilego without any hesitation.

boom! !

A cloud of dust billowed up.

Jing He's expression was strange.

Is there a hidden trick inside the ball?

Could it be that Boss Sakaki has already encountered the Crimson?

That "hidden move inside the ball" is frighteningly skillful.

Moreover, as an old-school trainer, Giovanni, despite being the leader of Team Rocket, is probably no less skilled at throwing Poké Balls than Gold.

In old-school trainers, throwing Poké Balls is a very important skill, often playing a crucial role in unexpected battles in the wild.

This is not.

It was clearly a ground-type move, but Giovanni managed to make it look like an aerial combat move.

Lila watched this scene in astonishment.

Amidst the rising dust, Lusamine fell from the sky.

Thanks to Jinghe's help, the Jawless Needle Dragon had already reached the bottom of the impact point and accurately caught the falling Lusamine.

boom! ! !
The light blue Nido landed heavily, spread its arms, and roared domineeringly at the surrounding Hollowfieds.

The Nidorans around them, intimidated by Nido's imposing presence, retreated a short distance once more. Although they didn't completely retreat, they dared not approach easily again.

"There's really no need to worry," Lila murmured, seemingly understanding why Teacher Jinghe had called out to Mr. Sakagi.

and.

Their previous exchanges, coupled with their tacit understanding and cooperation, made them seem like longtime partners.

Why don't you two live together?
Lila felt that she and Chairwoman Lusamine were somewhat superfluous.

"Genga?"

Just when all the Nidorans dared not approach Nidoqueen, Gengar did the opposite, arriving at Nidoqueen's side in an instant, looking her up and down, its eyes filled with increasing surprise.

"Genga?!"

Is it really you?!
"Roar--"

Nidoran, who was so domineering just a second ago, revealed a kind and friendly smile after realizing that Gengar had recognized him.

It turned out to be the Nidoqueen that had "visited" Jinghe's house back then!
We didn't see each other for almost a year after we parted ways.

Unexpectedly, in less than a year, this Nidoqueen has grown to champion level!
"Ow~"

"Cha~"

Ninetales and Giant Blacksmith also emerged from the Poké Balls around Jing He's waist and surrounded Nidoqueen, looking it up and down.

We're all old friends!
"Roar"

Nido scratched his head somewhat embarrassedly.

It's been almost a year since we last met. Although it has grown rapidly, it seems that the growth rate of its friends is even more astonishing.

Gengar and Ninetales have reached a level that even Nidoqueen feels is dangerous. Even with Greatsmith, Nidoqueen feels that she might not be a match for them.

Back then, these three little ones were no match for it. Now, not only has it overtaken it, but it has overtaken all of them and gained a significant lead.
But anyway.

The promise to "meet at the summit" has been fulfilled.

Everyone has become a "better" version of themselves!

"Gang ga!"

After Gengar first grabbed Nidoran, it asked him with a mischievous grin.

Hehe! Tell me, tell me! What happened to that Nidoking back then? How are you doing now?
"Roar!"

Upon hearing this, Nido immediately raised his head.

The Nidoking was beaten up by it and became obedient, but every time it saw it afterward, it would beat it up again. It's been more than three months since they last met!
"Ouch~!"

Even the usually shy and taciturn Nine-Tails felt "satisfied" after hearing this and took Nidoqueen's hand.

"Roar!"

Nido became even more "proud," raising his hand and holding up three fingers.

These three fingers indicate the current number of Nidokings!

"Genga?!"

"Ouch?!"

"just?!"

Three?!
The three little ones exclaimed in unison.

Good guy!
Nidoqueen, who was "dumped" by Nidoking back then, now has three "boyfriends"?
One should look at a person with new eyes after three days of separation!

wrong.

The dragon-slaying hero has become the dragon himself!

The four Pokémon immediately started playing around, their joyful atmosphere making them seem to forget their surroundings.

Jinghe was also surprised when she recognized the Nido.

What surprised him was not that Giovanni could train a Nidoqueen to champion level in less than a year.

To be honest, this would be considered fast for others, but for Giovanni, it was rather slow.

To know.

Having obtained the "Secrets of the Earth" from Giovanni, Blue Green trained a whole team of champion-level Pokémon in less than a year, the kind that could go toe-to-toe with Red!
As the master of "The Secrets of the Earth," it's not surprising that Giovanni possesses a vast amount of resources.

He was surprised.

Is this Nidoqueen part of Giovanni's second or third team, or is it a Pokémon that didn't even make the third team?

This is already at the champion level.

Is Giovanni's real team really six Legendary Pokémon?

It's probably not that exaggerated.
"Its potential and ability are both good, and its mentality is even better. There is still room for improvement," Sakaki said.

Jinghe clicked his tongue and shook his head.

Look at the tone of his voice.

It seems that as long as Sakaki is willing to put in the effort to train him, he's guaranteed to be a champion.

And this still seems to be reality.

So angry.

With no injuries and a slowly improving relationship with his son, Sakaki seems to be on the verge of "evolving" into his complete form.

"Chairwoman Lusamine is alright," Lila said, looking up after checking on Lusamine's condition.

Jinghe nodded, and the topic with Sakaki was brought back.

He looked around and said, "If nothing unexpected happens, this should be the 'Ultimate Deep Sea'."

Jing He had already made his judgment, but the appearance of Nihilego Ido and his possession of Lusamine interrupted him.

The ultimate deep sea?

There's clearly not a single drop of water in it.
Lila looked puzzled.

But I quickly came to terms with it.

It's normal for the "Ultra Space" to differ from the understanding and judgment of the Pokémon world.

"So this is it." The leader of the four-jawed needle dragons suddenly realized, "It is said that a group of strange Ultra Beasts live in the 'Ultra Deep Sea,' which is very dangerous, so we have never come here before."

With Jinghe's "location" information, the leader of the Four-jawed Needleosaurus was able to determine their location and the direction they should go.

"Lila," Jing He suddenly spoke again.

"Ok?"

"Didn't you and Dr. Barnett say before that there seemed to be a 'two-way reaction' between 'Ultimate Space' and 'Ultimate Hole'?"

Jing He looked at the Xu Wu Yi De around him, and said thoughtfully:

"If a group of Nihilegos sensed the thoughts and feelings of the people in the Pokémon world, amplified them, and brought them to life, could that explain this phenomenon?"

"I see!"

Lila realized it immediately.

Considering the characteristics of the Nihilistics, their "idealistic" abilities seem to make sense.

The more intense their desire to investigate the "Ultimate Space," the more likely they are to trigger Nihilego's characteristics and resonate across a spatial dimension.
"No wonder we came here first, to the 'Ultimate Deep Sea' rather than somewhere else."

Jing He nodded. "Of course, Chairperson Lusamine's 'desire' is perhaps one of the important reasons that brought us here."

After a brief discussion, Jinghe said:
"Let's leave first. Our main purpose in coming here is not to explore the connection between 'Ultimate Space' and our world."

"it is good!"

Lila did not object at all.

Interrupting Gengar and the others from their reminiscing with Nidoran, Jinghe flipped over and climbed onto Dragonite's back.

"Let's go, let's find the main target or reach the target's location first."

With their location pinpointed, the Najacacleon leader, carrying Giovanni and the others, flew towards the edge of the "Ultra Deep."

As long as they are not afraid of the Nihilegos, no matter how many Nihilegos are around them, they will not pose any threat to Jinghe and the others.

Rampage all the way.

The Nihilegos and their ilk quickly moved aside.

“Philo.”

In the corner, Pheromosa looked at Nidoran, who had been recalled by Giovanni, with hostility in its eyes.

Why is this guy so close to Gengar, even chatting and laughing with him?

Jinghe's Pokémon Ice Ninetales and Greatsmith are one thing, but it...
"Philo!"

Pheromone bit her lip and labeled Nidoqueen as a "love rival"!
The ultimate deep sea is vast.

Fortunately, Dragonite and the others were very fast, and they did not seem to have landed in the central area of ​​the Deep Sea, so after flying for a while, they saw land.

Such a fast flight speed is somewhat challenging for Jinghe.

In order to resolve the potential or impending "trouble" as quickly as possible, he could only try to distract himself using his own methods.

For example.
"You're still no good, Gengar. You can't even hypnotize me. What kind of 'hypnotist' are you?"

"Gang ga!"

Gui Gui was immediately furious and gave Jing He a "loving lick".

"It's numb, it feels good." Jing He had an expression of "enjoyment".

Lila: "."

She gripped the four-jawed needle dragon tightly, her eyes fixed straight ahead.

It was as if they had "seen" some "ultimate secret" that they shouldn't have seen.

Teacher Jinghe has such a "quirk"? Won't she be "silenced"?

Lusamine slowly woke up during the flight.

She remembered everything that had happened before, but the changes in events were completely unexpected.

On the one hand, I was taken aback by my own true thoughts, and on the other hand, I was surprised that I had developed a feeling of "regret".

She seems to.
I really like Ultra Beasts way too much.

The thought of catching a group of Ultra Beasts as a "collection" involuntarily popped into my mind.

Fortunately, reason helped her suppress this thought.

"Jing He".

suddenly.

Sakaki's serious voice rang out, and the leader of the Four-Jakobdon fell downwards.

Ok?
Jinghe and Lila exchanged a glance and then both descended.

"This is."

When they landed on the ground and looked at what was in front of them, they all showed expressions of surprise.

"road?"

A well-constructed and sturdy road surface!
However, it seems to have been unused for a long time, so it appears somewhat abandoned.

“It seems there are indeed people in the ‘Ultimate Space,’ or at least beings whose intelligence is no less than that of humans,” Lila said.

"This road was built a long time ago, and judging from its state of disrepair, it's hard to say what its current condition is."

Jing He remained relatively calm.

It's just "Ultimate Metropolis".

As long as Necrozma isn't imprisoned in the Ultimate Metropolis Tower, there shouldn't be a big problem.

Sakaki curled the corners of his mouth into a smile.

He wasn't actually worried about the existence of humans in the "ultimate space"; on the contrary, he hoped for their presence because only through communication and interaction could cooperation be possible.

As for the possibility of cooperation, there's a very high chance they'll fight a battle first.
Sakaki was not afraid of war.

If they could cooperate with the humans in "Ultimate Space," the "Rainbow Rocket Group" could easily become a "middleman," or rather, a "courier."

While other companies profit from cross-regional trade, Rainbow Rocket Group can earn huge profits from cross-space trade!
"Let's continue, let's go."

Jing He waved his hand.

Hoenn region, center of the Green Mist universe.

Daigo received a message from Marin at the Hilky Way Observatory in the distant Alola region.

"eclipse?"

“That’s right.” Marin’s voice carried a strange tone. “According to the information and records we have in the Alora region, there has never been a solar eclipse.”

“Never happened?”

Daigo was somewhat surprised and was about to continue speaking when he heard Ma Ruiyin say:

"I know that, let alone a solar eclipse, even a total solar eclipse will inevitably occur once every two years at most in the Pokémon world. It's just that the area that can be observed will vary, ranging from several decades to over a hundred years, but..."

“I understand what you mean.” Daigo was clearly surprised that a solar eclipse had never occurred in the Alola region.

But... how is that possible?

Unless it wasn't recorded, but that's unlikely.
"So I want to contact the Green Ridge Space Center to confirm whether my observations are correct?"

Daigo immediately contacted the staff at the Green Desire Space Center and received an affirmative answer.

"The observation is correct."

After a pause, he added:

"And this is very likely to be a total solar eclipse of a very large scale, which will cover the entire Alora region. Such a large scale is rare in the world."

Ma Rui nodded.

"I have a feeling that this is not a good sign."

Upon hearing this, Daigo suddenly had a thought and asked, "Is Professor Jinghe in the Alola region?"

"Is this Teacher Jinghe?" Ma Ruiyin was taken aback. He called his cousin Mamane and received an affirmative answer.

"It really is"

The two looked at each other through the video and understood each other's thoughts.

With Teacher Jinghe here, something big is bound to happen.

But accordingly.

With Teacher Jinghe around, this major incident will likely end without any real danger, or even any real danger at all.

Ultimate Space.

A young man with a satellite haircut and wearing a white lab coat fiddled with a small laptop in his hand, raising his eyebrows slightly.

"It's finally here."
