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

Chapter 259: The Rewards and Settlement, and the Suspicious Truth?

Ling Feng continued to think along these lines, and soon he arrived at a perfect answer.

Since I already know that neither the ancient species nor the future species belong to this world, it seems that my exploration of this world will not be affected by these beings from other worlds, but will simply depend on my understanding of everything in this world.

As he was pondering this, a series of messages appeared before him.

[100% World Exploration Reward Awarded:]

[1. Legendary game creation module "Genesis Engine" (fragment) x1!]

[Note: Ultimate module fragments that transcend conventional understanding. Collecting all fragments unlocks ultimate game-making privileges, including the ability to create/modify the underlying rules of a world, materialize legendary scenes/Pokémon, and even interfere with spacetime!]

[(Current status: Fragment 1/?, functionality is severely limited, only allowing for localized data overwriting and rule fine-tuning with extremely high privileges, which consumes a huge amount of resources.)]

[2. Emotional Points: 30000!]

3. Special Item: "Portable Advanced Garden"!

[Description: A foldable ecological module from the system space. When unfolded, it forms a stable small ecosystem with a controllable internal time flow rate (up to 1:10) and significantly increased energy concentration. It is extremely suitable for cultivating rare berries, for Pokémon to rest, and for the survival and evolution of Pokémon with specific environmental needs. It is already bound to a host and can be stored at any time.]

The generous reward invigorated Ling Feng.

Although the legendary module fragment is just a fragment, the effects described sound terrifying.

He just hadn't expected that the system could even break down modules into fragments and give them to him as rewards.
Did you learn this from Pinduoduo?
Thirty thousand is a huge sum of money, and it also adds up to a lot of emotional points.

As for that portable advanced garden, it's practically a mobile Pokémon breeding base, and its value is obviously very high.

Although he had received many rewards at this moment, Ling Feng still hadn't forgotten the question he had just been pondering, nor the information he had gathered.

Since neither the future species nor the ancient species belong to this world, what kind of force propelled them here?
He always felt that this was not simply an accident.
Moreover, if I'm not mistaken, when I rushed to the banquet to save the day, I discovered that the way those people would come to the Grand Banquet Hall in the future was through the Ultimate Cave!

How could the ancient species and the future species be connected to the Ultimate Hole?

Although we solved some problems during our trip to this world, new mysteries are emerging one after another.

These thoughts flashed through Ling Feng's mind, and he shook his head slightly.

He temporarily suppressed his doubts.

Fortunately, there shouldn't be any problems in this world for the foreseeable future.

As for the ancient species and the unspecies, we can continue to explore that topic later.

A thought struck him, and he prepared to examine the details of the legendary module fragment and the portable garden.

The system prompt popped up again.

[The legendary game creation module "Genesis Engine" (fragment) has finished loading.]

The special item "Portable Advanced Garden" has been stored in the system space and can be activated at any time.

[Emotional Points: 30000 points, credited to your account.]

Just as Ling Feng was receiving his reward in the underground world, on the distant surface world, in a desolate wasteland polluted by futuristic metal creations and chaotic energy.

Space distorted without warning.

A circular vortex, its edges flickering with unstable purplish-black arcs of electricity, like ink dripping onto water, quietly opened above a broken overpass.

The vortex was incredibly deep inside, as if it connected to an unknown void.

If Ling Feng were here, he would definitely be able to escape this vortex—it's the ultimate hole he just thought of!

A flash of light appeared at the center of the vortex, and a figure stepped out gracefully, landing on the ground covered with rusted metal and energy crystals.

This is a tall, well-tailored white uniform with unusual patterns and gold trim, which makes him look both noble and technologically advanced.

He was handsome, even somewhat effeminate, with a faint smile playing at the corners of his mouth.

What's most striking is his long green hair, which looks rather strange.

As soon as he stood firm, a sickening metallic scraping sound came from behind several twisted piles of metal around him.

Several ferocious, futuristic creatures exuding a cold and chaotic aura—Iron Neck and Iron Arm—like startled predators, locked their crimson electronic eyes onto the suddenly appearing life form.

Their metal limbs began to shake and emit a low hum, clearly indicating that an attack was imminent.

However, faced with this threat that could wipe out the world's elite squad, the green-haired man's smile remained unchanged, even carrying a hint of contempt.

He didn't even glance at the future species poised to unleash their power. Instead, he elegantly raised a hand wearing a black glove and gently placed it on a half-person-high black stone covered with strange blue patterns.

hum!
The blue veins on the stone suddenly lit up, emitting an invisible yet powerful wave that swept across the surroundings in an instant!

The next moment, an even stranger scene unfolded.

The iron necks and arms that had already assumed an attack stance suddenly blinked a few times, as if a pause button had been pressed, and the humming sound of energy storage abruptly stopped.

They froze in place, the red light in their eyes still lingering, but the ferocious desire to attack had vanished.

Instead, it was in a state of... standby, as if waiting for something.

They lowered their heads, as if to submit to the stone, or rather, to the man pressing down on it.

The green-haired man slowly withdrew his hand, and the blue light on the stone dimmed.

He looked around at the ruins covered in metal and deathly energy, his brow furrowed slightly, and the smile faded a little.

"The progress of the destruction of the world barrier..." he muttered to himself, his voice tinged with dissatisfaction.

"Strange, why is it so slow? The efficiency of these scrap metal is truly disappointing."

His gaze drifted into the distance, where he could vaguely see the faint light reflected from the dome of the underground city, like a conspicuous scar on the earth.

"It seems we need to put more pressure on those lingering insects underground."

The green-haired man shrugged, and with a flick of his wrist, several devices shimmering with dark purple energy and shaped like twisted keys appeared in his palm.

He casually tossed them, and these key-shaped devices, as if they were alive, shot precisely at the few future species that were in standby mode.

The device melted into their metal shells the instant it came into contact with them, like mercury.

Roar--!
Several roars, several times more ferocious than before, suddenly rang out!

Although the size of those iron-necked and iron-armed creatures did not change significantly, the chaotic energy surrounding them surged instantly, and strange dark purple patterns appeared on their metal shells, while their scarlet electronic eyes emitted a fierce light.

The oppressive aura they exuded was many times stronger than before!
Then, the green-haired man looked at the several future species he had "enhanced" with satisfaction, and spoke with a hint of appreciation:

"This is right..."

“Go, go and give those guys underground a little ‘surprise.’ Let them know that hiding in their shells won’t change their fate.”

The enhanced Future Species roared even more violently, transforming into several dark purple streaks of light, carrying an aura of destruction, and charged fiercely towards a certain direction in the distance!

The green-haired man stopped looking at them and turned to face the still-open ultimate hole.

He adjusted his cuffs, as if reporting to some unseen entity, "Number Three reporting: The erosion of the Seventh World has stalled. We have managed to accelerate the destruction of the world barrier; expandable cracks are expected to appear after the next attack. Please await further progress."

After saying that, he stepped into the purplish-black vortex and disappeared.

The ultimate hole rapidly shrank and disappeared behind him.

All that remains is this desolate ruin covered in metal, and the faint roar that can be heard in the distance.

Ling Feng had no idea what had happened in the world above. After receiving his reward, he stretched.

Now that the progress has reached 100% and the game has been distributed, the affairs of this world can be temporarily put to rest.

As for now, let's go back first.

He glanced at the dimensional communicator that was already ready and selected to activate it.

hum-

Accompanied by a familiar, slight spatial tremor, the light from the dimensional communicator flickered on and off in the bedroom of his villa in Cerulean City.

Ling Feng landed steadily on the floor, with the Crystal Chandelier Spirit floating behind him like a shadow, its eerie blue flames flickering, seemingly quite pleased to be home.

"Finally home"

Ling Feng let out a soft breath. He really didn't like the oily, rusty air of the underground world; the air in this world was much fresher.

No wonder everyone says we need to protect the natural environment.
Upon returning, his gaze immediately fell upon the specially made insulated tub in the corner of the room.

Inside the tank, clear water circulates slowly.

The ammonite floated quietly in the middle of the water. Its soft head tentacles swayed slightly, and its two large, dark eyes curiously observed the suddenly appearing Ling Feng and the crystal lantern spirit.

Compared to its state when it was first revived, the Omanyte looks much more energetic now, and its shell is shinier and seems to be much stronger.

"Hey, you're in good shape."

Ling Feng walked to the heated tank and gently tapped the glass tank wall with his finger.

"Ummy?"

With a puzzled cry, the ammonite clumsily spun around in the water, seemingly trying to see who was outside.

It recognized Ling Feng's presence, and several tentacles danced merrily, gently patting the tank walls as if to greet him.

Although he was still quite confused, he had already realized who had brought him back into this world.

Seeing that the Omanyte was adapting well, Ling Feng felt much more relaxed.

He stretched out his finger and pointed at the ammonite through the glass:

"Get used to it. I'll take you to see the ocean later. It'll probably be a little different from what you remember, but it's still the same ocean, haha."

After comforting the newborn, Ling Feng walked to the computer desk next to him and sat down.

Now you can take a good look at the rewards you received in the underworld.

The first thing he checked was the [Portable Advanced Garden].

I only glanced at it just now, but I'll go in and take a closer look.

As his thoughts passed through, he selected a palm-sized hexagonal metal module emitting a soft green light from his system inventory and then took it out directly.

“Concretization”.

hum!
With a slight vibration, the metal module appeared on his outstretched palm, its surface warm to the touch and carrying a strange sense of vitality.

With his thought, the module's surface glowed faintly, and a soft light screen was projected onto the open ground in front of him.

The light screen unfolded, forming a huge virtual space projection.

The corresponding space of this projection is clearly divided into several areas, which appear to cover thousands of acres, making it extremely large.

One area is a sun-drenched, lush plain; another is a damp rainforest teeming with exotic plants; yet another is a dry, scorching desert; and a small patch is covered in a thin layer of frost, radiating a chill.

At the edge of each area, there are some control panel-like things with a lot of corresponding data.

The portable advanced garden is now open.

Status: Stable (Sufficient Energy)

【时间流速控制：当前为1:1（标准流速）。可调整为最高1:10（内部10天，外界1天）。】

[Ecological Regions: Four basic environments are pre-set: plains, rainforest, desert, and frigid zones. The host can consume emotion points to expand or customize new environments.]

[Current culture: None]

Currently, there are no Pokémon available.

Ling Feng's eyes lit up immediately.

Ten times the time flow rate? This means that if you plant a tree or fruit inside, it will take one day outside to grow inside!

This would be perfect for cultivating rare berries, or for letting Pokémon that need a special environment to improve or evolve stay inside; the results would be excellent.

Tired Chandelure or Gengar can also go inside to rest, since their time flows are different.

correct
He suddenly thought of the Seed of the World that was still lying in the system space.

Since this thing is said to be able to grow into a world tree, I wonder if it can be planted here.

With a thought, the seed, exuding an ancient aura and covered with mysterious patterns, appeared in his hand.

The moment the seed appeared, the surrounding space seemed to freeze for a moment.

Ling Feng, however, was already used to it. He walked to the plain area in the virtual projection and tried to put the seeds into the soil.

"Buzz!"

The seed did indeed go directly inside, but—

With a soft thud, it seemed to hit an invisible barrier and bounced directly out of the soil, landing back in Ling Feng's hand without getting a speck of dirt on it.

The patterns on the seed's surface shimmered slightly, as if it were showing disdain.

"Tsk."

Ling Feng pursed his lips, not too surprised.

It's not that simple after all. It seems that the conditions for growing this thing are much more demanding; it's not just about having a good piece of land.

He took the Seed of the World back.

However, even if you can't plant the World Tree, you can always plant something else, right?
