Master Craftsman of the Elven World

Chapter 34 Zifuqi·Dawu
"In our Johto region, the gym leader of Enju City, Matsuba, is a famous psychic 'Shugenja'. He has a unique ability of 'clairvoyance' that allows him to see things that others cannot see. He is also responsible for guarding the Bell Tower and the Scorched Tower, where the legendary Pokémon live."

"If I ask him to conduct the experiment, he will definitely be able to draw an accurate conclusion. Unfortunately, I am not an expert in psychic communication, so I cannot participate in this matter."

Professor Soramu scratched his head and looked apologetic, while Professor Oak waved his hand:
"No, no, artisan items are not the direction of our research. It's the same for you, me, and Dr. Solans. These are the research directions of artisans and technology companies."

The main research directions of the doctors in each region are different. Professor Oak's own research topic is "The relationship between Pokémon and humans", and his subject is related to Pokémon behavior, ecology, ethics, attributes, etc. The other doctors are the same, and they don't have much interest in supernatural things.

Kongmu is the cultivation direction. Although Solans is interested in rocks, his main research directions are meteorites, astronomy, and energetics.

However, at this moment, Professor Oak suddenly changed the subject:
"However, just like the Evolution Stone, there may be materials we have never seen in distant areas. This is not limited to stones, but may also be related to Pokémon."

"For example, the Evolution Stone we just learned about. Although it is a natural rock, it is closely related to the evolution of Pokémon. Maybe this special stone also exists in our area, but no one has discovered it before."

"Why don't we pay attention to this strange shop first? Maybe some rare materials will appear in the future that can help our research."

Professor Oak's proposal was approved, and Dr. Solans also said that one of the Four Heavenly Kings in the Hoenn region might be interested in this talisman.

After the videophone was turned off, Professor Oak in the Pallet Town Research Institute looked at the "unique talisman" in the shop and gradually recalled a familiar person in his mind.

It’s not like there are no experts in ghosts in the Kanto region, it’s just that her relationship with him is not very good.

Should we invite her to the institute?
No, forget it. If I ask her for help with research, I'll definitely get scolded.

By the time Daigo arrived in Akihabara Town, Dr. Solans' "cross-regional discussion" had already ended.

"Oh! Mr. Daigo, you're here! I'm so sorry to have to trouble you to come so far."

"Of course not! After all, it is a rare stone!" Daigo did not have time to exchange pleasantries and asked immediately: "So, Doctor, what is that stone?"

"How come the stone is here with me? The stone is still in the Johto area." Dr. Solans was at a loss whether to laugh or cry, and then told Daigo what they had just discussed. When Daigo learned that the source of the stone was not a common area, he couldn't help but feel excited.

He has not yet discovered all the stones in common areas, and he doesn’t know how many secrets are buried underground. He didn’t expect that the unknown areas are also full of surprises!

The content of their discussion after the meeting was much more detailed than what they had discussed on the phone. Daigo learned that the stone was now in the hands of a gym leader in the Johto area, and he had also heard of the name Abi.

"He is the youngest genius gym leader in the Johto region. I heard that he is very good at studying insect attributes and even discovered the move 'Continuous Slash', distinguishing it from ordinary slashing moves."

"I see. But since the stone was sold to him," Daigo pondered.

If he wanted to force a sale, he certainly had sufficient funds. He only needed to propose a normal price, and Daigo believed that the other party would definitely give up.

However, this will inevitably give people a bad impression of "throwing money when seeing treasures", so the formal way is to find the craftsman.

And if others find it useful and don’t want to give it up, it would be really embarrassing for me.

"If this stone is related to Pokémon, then it is not a common geological rock, but a special mineral produced in a specific environment."

Daigo talked about it: "Those special minerals related to Pokémon that we know of, such as hard stone, mysterious water drop, and King's Certificate, all have a strong relationship with Pokémon, and as we know, in the natural environment, the reasons for their formation are mostly related to rocks, water, and Pokémon with super powers."

As a professional gem collector, Daigo also displays stones from many regions in his home in Green Ridge City, such as amphibole excavated from the Rock Mountain Tunnel in the Kanto region, flint excavated from the Shinsengumi Volcano in the Hoenn region, and diabase tuff excavated from the Tenkoan Mountain in the Sinnoh region.

Therefore, Daigo knows exactly which stones are abnormal and which stones have unique formation environments and conditions.

"Originally, I was going to Deep Gray City in the Kanto region in a few days. I heard that rare fossils were discovered in the science museum there. But now it seems that I may have to go to the Johto region first."

Daigo spread his hands and said, "Time is very tight, so I plan to go to Johto to take a quick look first. After the research in Deep Gray City is completed, I will go to look for the craftsman."

"In that case, why not pay attention to his store?" Dr. Solance called up the previous store interface on the computer:

"It's a popular online store nowadays, and there are some unique things in his store."

"It contains information about talismans. Furong of the Four Heavenly Kings should be interested in it."

Daigo saw the things being sold in the store interface. When he saw the items that could increase the power of moves and lock lives, including unique talismans and magical cloths, he began to think.

"This craftsman seems to sell everything. Is his description true?"

"I'll send him an email to confirm it now, so it appears more formal." Daigo thought about it, began to draft an email in Dr. Solans's research institute, and sent it to Guangtai, and soon received a "reply".

[Sorry, I'm away now because of something. I'll contact you when I get back. -——Automatic reply]

".It's an automatic reply. That's right, this craftsman must be collecting precious materials in the wild."

Daigo thought about it briefly, and since he couldn't get an answer for the time being, he could only pay attention to Guangtai's shop first, and then discussed with Dr. Solans whether the Evolution Stone was a new meteorite. At the same time, he sent a message to Furong that "something good was discovered."

----

6 month 19 day.

After the dream event ended, the light moss was busy planting and watering and did not continue to touch the symbolic stone slab, and the word for the waving water was also broken apart.

During this period, Guangtai picked up two vanilla leaves through the ability of "Leaf Picker Traveler".

All are white "White Vanilla". When the Pokémon carrying it has its power reduced, it can only return to its previous state once.

Guangtai has made some itinerary plans, which is to suspend business for a period of time after August to September and leave the Shendu area. At the same time, the first place to visit is Hezhong.

"The Lianru Forest. I gradually have a feeling that it must be there."

"I need to go to Unova, but not now."

Since the message said that we could meet, then we will definitely meet again!

The evolved dual scabbards were not idle either. In addition to continuing to help clear branches and collect wood, they were also constantly training the two moves of "stand-in" and "reflection wall", and occasionally interspersed with "combo slashes".

It once boasted that weapons did not need defense, but now it has completely changed. What virtues of a knight? In Guang Moss's opinion, this guy is the one who has the desire for victory in his bones.
What knight? It's not a knight!
Don't really learn how to cancel a combo! This is really the awakening of memories from my past life.

However, after evolving into double scabbards, the two consciousnesses both believed that they were the authentic ones and the other side was a pirated one, and they would accuse each other and ask the other side not to imitate their swordsmanship!
To be honest, Guangmoss once thought, wouldn't Pokémon like Dual Blades have symptoms of schizophrenia?

Now it seems that there are some signs!

"If we can find the Dark Stone, we can let the double scabbards evolve directly into a shield sword monster, and the situation of consciousness separation will no longer occur."

Guangtai thought so, but there was no clue about the Dark Stone. It seemed that he could only place his hope on Wangluo who was hunting everywhere?
And during this process, there was a small incident.

Lily Root Doll: The single scabbard has become two, which one is the original one? (.﹏.*)?

The sword on the left: I am the real body, the scabbard of the sword! ゞ（⊙）╯╬!

The sword on the right: I am the real body, he is the split one! ゞ（⊙）╯╬!
Because of a curious remark from the Lily Root Doll, the two swords started fighting each other. Guangtai quickly spoke out to stop them, otherwise the double scabbards would have fought with themselves!

Although the Lily Root Doll was very curious, it knew it couldn't continue asking questions after seeing this scene, so it quickly slipped into the medicinal field, dug a small hole and buried itself.

"Taking care of Pokémon is also a skill. In the Pokémon world, nurturing is also very important. Will there be psychological problems?"

Guangtai thought so and paid special attention to the double scabbards.

And today, before processing the stone, Guangtai once again found another unread email in his inbox?
It's a wild new customer!
But what he asked about was also to buy an evolution stone?
"Did Abi introduce it to him? It seems that he has already used the stone."

Guangtai replied to the email while thinking about it. First of all, of course, he told the other party that the Evolution Stone was a precious stone that could not be easily found, and he did not have a second one for the time being.

And even if there is a second one, Guang Moss has no intention of selling it for the time being, but to put it on the single sword scabbard. Oh, it should be a double sword scabbard, at least for a period of time.

Guang Moss thought for a moment:

"Evolution Stones can be found in various regions. You can look for them in local caves or mountains. If there are a large number of Pokémon gathered, you may find this kind of stone."

There is indeed an evolution stone in the Hoenn region, but in the game, the stone is not in any terrain, but on the body of a Magikarp fisherman who is fishing by the water. It allows the Magikarp to wear the evolution stone.
In the game, there is only one way to find the "Wild Evolution Stone".

It is not purchased from a store nor synthesized through a machine. Instead, in the "X/Y" version, it is found in the trash can of the "Pokémon Village" where wild Pokémon gather. At the same time, there is also one in the city of Sala in the Kalos region. The condition for obtaining it is also to discover more than a certain number of Pokémon to be given away.

After replying to the other party's email, Guangtai looked at the store again and found that it had gained a few followers, and some people had placed orders to buy unique cleansing talismans and some magical cloths.
