Let you make a game, what the hell is Pokemon?.

Chapter 142 A Crazy Harvest Moment: Mission Rewards!

Time passed quietly, and at dusk, in a villa in Cerulean City, Kanto region.

Ling Feng pushed open the kitchen door, and a fragrant aroma wafted out, accompanied by thick smoke. He had already prepared dinner for the day.

As soon as he opened the door, he saw the figure standing before him, with a soft, flickering light – it was the Crystal Lamp Spirit.

Since advancing to the Quasi-Heavenly King level, the aura emanating from the opponent has grown stronger day by day, as if the power of the magical candy is still exerting its lingering effects.

However, thinking about this, he even had a premonition that if things continued like this, with the knowledge and supplements he provided to the energy cube every day, the Crystal Lamp's spiritual energy might one day automatically advance to the Heavenly King level.

Ling Feng suddenly came to his senses. Since he was so rich and the Crystal Lamp Spirit seemed to have no resistance to becoming stronger, it would naturally be good to reach the Heavenly King level or even the Champion level.

As the saying goes, if you want to become stronger, you either have to work hard or spend money. And now that I've sold so many copies of the game, the last thing I lack is money.

We might as well see if we can afford to spend more money to buy more Ghost-type resources for the Lidgment to use.

Well, if possible, I'll also buy some for Gengar. After all, it's practically my employee now, so giving it some employee benefits is reasonable, right?

With this thought in mind, Ling Feng smiled and nodded to the Crystal Lamp Spirit.

"Going out to play again?"

"Mo—"

The crystal chandelier spirit swayed its body, the lamp stand clanging together with a crisp sound, and nodded, confirming Ling Feng's question.

"I haven't seen you lately, I guess you've probably gone out to play. By the way, remember not to scare anyone."

Ling Feng couldn't help but offer a word of advice and reminder.

Chandelure is now a near-Elite Four level Pokémon. If such a creature were to appear in the city and be discovered by others, it would probably cause an immediate sensation and commotion.

Although the Chandelier Spirit is unlikely to attack humans, it will probably still cause it a lot of trouble.

Strictly speaking, when a Pokémon reaches this level of strength, it must be officially registered with the League according to the official regulations of this world.

However, his current identity is quite special; he can be considered an unregistered member of the alliance. According to the system, no one in the world can find his identity information, so there is no possibility of registration.

Therefore, Chandelure and Gengar are now also considered unregistered.

But since I usually live in a villa, I guess I'll just be an unregistered resident.

After reminding the chandelier spirit, Ling Feng set the dinner he had prepared on the table, while also pondering the progress of his game development that day.

After handing over those tedious and trivial matters to Gengar, my production efficiency has improved by leaps and bounds. Today, I successfully created all the geographical content of the island where the Psychic-type gym is located, as well as the terrain of the small wave hole above it, all in one day.

In addition, he created the prototype of the epic battle between Rayquaza, Groudon, and Kyogre, according to his own ideas.

Although there are still many areas that need polishing and modification, the finished product should be ready in the next two days.

He stretched and headed towards the study, intending to check on Gengar's creations from today.

After all, today was Gengar's first day making a game. He learned it yesterday and started working on it today. Ling Feng was prepared to clean up the mess. However, the actual situation was completely beyond his expectations. Gengar created the basic content of Team Magma's base and Team Aqua's base exactly as he had imagined.

While the system played a part, there is no doubt that Gengar has demonstrated its talent in this area.

"Not bad, keep it up. If you can do this on the first day, I'll start to wonder if I can stop going to work."

Ling Feng chuckled and patted Gengar on the shoulder, praising him, which earned him a smug snort from Gengar.

—How could I possibly not understand something so simple?
"Come on, here's your reward, as promised."

Ling Feng pointed to the table and quickly walked out. Gengar followed behind him and immediately saw the huge pot of braised pork ribs on the table.

His eyes lit up immediately, and he plunged headfirst into the basin.

Ling Feng then took out a double-strength energy cube from the cabinet and poured it into the bowl in front of Gengar, as agreed beforehand—this guy is clearly not as strong as Chandelure, but he eats far more food every day than Chandelure.

This thing has extremely low energy efficiency; in terms of power consumption, it should be at least a level 5 energy efficiency.

Amidst Gengar's wolfing down of food, Lingfeng also sat down at the table and began to eat his dinner.

At the same time, he began to think about something else. During the process of making a game today, he tried to open the game system to create "Phantom of the Darkness", but the system told him that he needed to complete at least the first playthrough of Pokémon Emerald before he could create other games.

The first playthrough of Pokémon Emerald refers to the part where the protagonist defeats the last gym after the battle of the three legendary Pokémon, and then successfully challenges the League to become the champion through the Champion Road. The level requirements for players are not high. From the perspective of the overall process of the first playthrough, there is now less than one-third of the content left.

So Ling Feng wasn't in a hurry. Since there were such restrictions, he decided to finish the game he was currently working on first.

Anyway, as long as it's done well, we can develop new games; it's not like players have to complete the game first.

He's already eager to use virtual reality technology to create "The Darkest Horizon".

He picked up a piece of pork rib and put it in his mouth, glancing at the time on his phone. The New Game Festival was about to end in a week, and he was undoubtedly at the top of the leaderboard.

What puzzled him was that there was still no news about DreamWorks' new work, which was much later than he had expected.

But judging by the timeline, it should be within the next day or two.

Just as Ling Feng was pondering this, a line of deep red notification suddenly popped up in front of him.

[Ding! Attention, host! The settlement of Shock Points for this period has begun!]

[You have received a total of 3100 Shock Points from viewers in various live streams and ordinary gamers!] [You have received 700 Shock Points from a special character: Crimson!]

Looking at the prompt in front of him, Ling Feng was stunned for a moment.

Crimson? This big shot is playing Emerald now?

As Ling Feng was filled with surprise, system notifications kept refreshing in front of him.

Besides the Crimson King, a series of names of the Kings and Champions followed, providing him with emotional points. Some of them were Kings he was familiar with, such as Kona and Lancelot, while others were Kings from other regions whom he did not recognize.

There were no champions, and most of them seemed to be top stars, but their numbers were quite large, numbering more than a dozen.

Seeing this, Ling Feng finally understood. His game had finally spread among the upper echelons of the trainer circle, which was a good omen.

However, he knew perfectly well that there was probably only one reason for this: Cynthia and Wataru had revealed the fact that the game was distributing rewards.

According to Ling Feng's understanding, the current situation in this world is not particularly good; the Spirit Realm alone is already causing the Alliance a great deal of trouble.

Although the power of those top trainers should eventually be able to resolve the problem of the Spirit World riots, in addition to the Spirit World, several other dark forces are also quite powerful and are eyeing the situation covetously.

If something major goes wrong at this critical juncture, the whole world might explode like a spark igniting a fuel can.

Cynthia probably shared the game because she was eager to improve the skills of these top-tier champions.

Otherwise, it's impossible to explain why so many superstars played Emerald together. The game's appeal alone probably wouldn't mean much to these superstars and champions.

However, judging from the shock points they have obtained so far, after being drawn into the game by Cynthia's words, they are still amazed by Pokémon Emerald itself and have unconsciously begun to delve deeper into the game.

Ling Feng's gaze lingered on the last golden prompt in front of him.

[Ding! Congratulations, host! You have gained a total of 8700 emotion points from a special character this period!]

[Including the points earned from sharing your gameplay videos online, your total Mood Points earnings for this period amount to 14300!]

14300 points! Looking at this number, Ling Feng couldn't help but put down the bowl in his hand and take a deep breath.

It has to be said that receiving such a large, one-time income is really satisfying. However, the majority of this income comes from the veterans who are just starting out in the game. As newcomers to the game, they will receive a large number of emotional points the first time they play, which will gradually decrease over time.

However, as long as their emotional threshold can be successfully unlocked, the efficiency of their emotional point production can be restored to its current state.

However, on the other hand, when the topic of emotional threshold came up, Ling Feng suddenly realized a problem.

After I gave Cynthia the Mega Evolution Gift Box and the Rare Candy as rewards, she should have already received the Mega Stone.

Even so, her emotional threshold still hasn't been broken? Could it be that she didn't dare eat the magic candy, or that her Mega Evolution didn't succeed?

That shouldn't be the case, right? If that were the case, how could she possibly invite these top champions to come and play games?

Ling Feng thought about it more and more and felt that his speculation was correct. So the only explanation for why Cynthia could not complete the threshold breakthrough should be, as the system said, that the right solution must be found, and even the shock brought to her by Mega Evolution would not work.

As for Cynthia, after witnessing the battle between the three legendary beasts, she should be able to successfully break through the threshold, right?
After all, for Cynthia herself, the Pokémon in myths and legends are what truly amaze her. The reason for her first and second breakthroughs in thresholds was related to legendary Pokémon.

Ling Feng couldn't help but feel a sense of anticipation. Judging from Cynthia's current game progress, the battle between the three legendary Pokémon that he would witness firsthand was probably not far off.

He hadn't forgotten that as long as the other party's emotional threshold exceeded his own, he could gain a special ability, and it was related to Cynthia.

To be honest, Ling Feng was really curious about what kind of abilities Cynthia would have.
It can't possibly be related to legendary Pokémon, right?
Just as Ling Feng was pondering, the prompt in front of him disappeared instantly, and a brand new prompt suddenly appeared, this time accompanied by a celebratory loudspeaker sound effect, signifying the completion of a certain task.

[Ding! Your game sales have reached 30 copies!]

[Congratulations! You have completed the S-rank side quest – Sales King!]

[Task Requirement: Achieve sales of 30 copies for any game you create within 15 days!]

[Mission Rewards: 1 Grade A Special Item Box, 1 Invitation Card, 2000 Shock Points]

Seeing the notification that refreshed in front of him, Ling Feng subconsciously opened his phone and switched to the game's sales backend. Sure enough, the game's sales had just reached exactly 30, and in the blink of an eye, sales had increased by more than 2000.

Keep in mind that this isn't the weekend, so this sales speed is clearly quite explosive.

It seems that whether it's his own live streams, the paid promotional campaigns, or the recent surge in popularity of Emerald itself, all of these factors have significantly increased the game's sales.

However, Ling Feng was already somewhat numb to the figure of 30, as it was certainly far from his ultimate goal.

Although the population of this world is not as large as that of the world he came from before, there are still definitely 1 million people, so sales of 30 are really not much.

Putting everything else aside, let's claim the reward for this task first.

The next moment, with a thought from Ling Feng, three familiar golden orbs of light appeared directly in front of him again.

The first orb of light naturally represents a reward of 2000 Shock Points.

But to be honest, after receiving such a small reward just now, Ling Feng was already a little dissatisfied.

As for the A-grade special item box, Ling Feng ignored it completely, his gaze falling directly on the last ball of light.

The system's special item—the invitation card! This is the key to the reward for this mission!
He took a deep breath, reached out a hand, and touched the golden ball of light.

Amidst countless shimmering lights, a small card instantly appeared in Ling Feng's hand!
