Pokémon: The Sims.

Chapter 186 The Gate to the Spirit Realm?!
Looking at the open door, Masked Cat narrowed its eyes warily.

"Meow?"

"Grab my tail and stay close to me."

Wu Ge raised his hand and patted Masked Cat's arm.

He then turned sideways, picked up some pebbles from the ground, and threw them into the doorway.

Bang.

The stone fell to the ground with a crisp sound.

There were no traps, and the other side wasn't the spirit world.

He turned his head and looked around.

The coffin has been lost.

Wu Ge led the way into the gate.

It's just an ordinary bedroom.

The bed, table, chairs, bookshelves, and all the luxurious furnishings were in good condition and quite clean.

But such a room is not a normal room in this city of Sempile.

Every room they had inspected along their way was broken and empty; everything of value had been moved or destroyed.

This is the only exception.

What does this mean?

Wu Ge tilted his head, somewhat puzzled.

Why did the lost coffin lead them here?
Snapped.

Swish swish.

Suddenly, a sound came from the desk in the room.

My gaze shifted, and I saw a book being turned over continuously.

The scene suddenly became eerie.

Click.

The sound of Hai Liang pressing the shutter button reduced the eeriness of the scene.

"Meow."

Masked Cat, holding New Leaf Cat, was frozen in place, not daring to move an inch.

Every now and then, I have to turn my head and glance outside the door.

They were constantly worried that some demons or monsters might jump out from the shadows and attack them.

'It seems things are actually not looking good.'

Wu Ge also began to feel a little scared.

Ghost-type Pokémon can't flip pages in mid-air, and there's no wind in this room.

How did this book keep turning its pages by itself?

Moreover, the way the pages are turned makes it seem as if a pair of hands are constantly twisting the paper.

But even so.

Wu Ge still moved closer to the desk.

The book on the table, which had been flipping through pages, had stopped and was now stuck on a particular page.

Wu Ge frowned and looked at it for two seconds.

can't read.

"Come and see."

He waved to Hailiang, who was still taking pictures around with his camera.

"What's wrong? Have you made any amazing discoveries?"

Hai Liang walked over with his eyes wide open.

His eyes were slightly bloodshot, and he was in a state of extreme excitement.

He naturally saw and photographed the scene of the book being turned.

So I'm also very curious about what's going on with this book.

"this."

Wu Ge pointed to the two pages in the book where the book was located.

"Hmm? Let me see, this happened twenty years ago. However, the details recorded here are much more specific. Interesting."

Hai Liang casually glanced at the contents of the book, took a couple of photos with his camera, and continued:
"The man who died here more than twenty years ago was a young master from a noble family in the Unova region."

"At that time, the United States was in the late stages of war, and the entire United States economy was in a slump. The noble family to which this young master belonged was also in an economic crisis and was on the verge of decline."

"In order to salvage this situation, the young master of the aristocratic family left the United States alone and smuggled himself to the Carlos region, intending to find another way for his family to survive here."

"But on the way here, he contracted a virus that was incurable at the time, and died not long after arriving in Sempil."

"Hmm, this content is slightly different from what I heard."

Hai Liang nodded, rubbing his chin.

He took out a notebook and jotted down a few keywords so he could recall them later.

then.

Hailiang flipped through the pages again.

As a result, a letter fell out of the book.

"what is this?"

Hai Liang was stunned. He picked up the letter, glanced at it, and then his face turned pale.
"Last Will and Testament"

Without saying a word, he quickly put the suicide note back in the book and kept bowing and apologizing.

boom! !

Suddenly, a huge roar came from upstairs.

And this time it wasn't just a single sound, but a continuous stream of all sorts of random noises.

Unlike the voices that seemed to be deliberately trying to attract them before.

These sounds sound like
"A fight has broken out upstairs!"

Hai Liang's eyes lit up, and he rushed out with a flashlight and camera in hand.

At times like this, there's no time to worry about fear.

Even if there really is a ghost today, he will still use his camera to take a perfect funeral portrait for the other person.

"Indeed, such a powerful aura."

Wu Ge looked up and glanced at it.

Even here, he could clearly feel the powerful energy fluctuations.

He glanced at Hailiang, who had already rushed out, shook his head helplessly, and followed closely behind.

They made their way up to the fourth floor.

The sounds of fighting seemed to be coming from the rooftop above.

"How do we get up there?"

Hailiang stood there anxiously.

"I come."

Wu Ge kicked off the wall next to him, and then kicked a hole in the ceiling directly above him.

however.

What happened on the rooftop at that moment shocked him.

Die Shi Guan is fighting a Night Demon.

Not far behind the Night Demon, on an open ground, there was a purple vortex emitting a gray glow and a faint suction force.

"The Gate to the Spirit Realm?!"

Wu Ge recognized it at a glance. It was truly a traumatic experience from his childhood.

The shocking things for Wu Ge didn't end there.

Only now, at such close range, did he suddenly realize that both the Lost Coffin and the Night Demon were terrifyingly powerful.

Both Pokémon possess Champion-level combat power.

Furthermore, they are all around four meters tall, which is comparable to the Warcraft era.

"Tsk."

Wu Ge smacked his lips.

He then immediately turned around and jumped back to the fourth floor.

"What's going on?! Why is there light coming from up there?!"

Hailiang rushed over immediately and asked curiously.

"Stop talking nonsense! Let's go!"

Wu Ge didn't have time to explain to him, and turned to look at Masked Cat.
"Follow me!"

He grabbed Hailiang with one arm and then jumped from the fourth floor.

"Ahhhhh!!"

Hai Liang's scream rang out.

Bang!
As Wu Ge landed, the immense impact caused Hai Liang to faint.

But Wu Ge doesn't have time to worry about Hai Liang's situation right now.

Turn your head and look up.

Masked Cat, carrying New Leaf Cat, followed closely behind him and leaped down.

Wu Ge stretched out his tail to catch it.

Snapped.

The masked cat landed on Wu Ge's thick tail and barely felt any tremor.

"Meow?"

“That Diedi Coffin is very strong and is currently fighting another Pokémon. Regardless of its purpose in leading us upstairs, we must run now and leave Sumpler City.”

Wu Ge led the masked cat horse and rushed outside without stopping, explaining as he ran.

They rushed out of the castle.

They slid down the hillside, not even bothering with the loose rocks on the slope.

Turning my head, I looked at the rooftop at the very top of the city of Sunbill.

The gray light is gradually fading away.

Somewhat disheveled, Die Shi Guan appeared at the edge of the rooftop, standing silently watching Wu Ge and the others leave.

Simultaneously.

Beside the coffin, a young man appeared, also staring at them.

However, the figure was semi-transparent and had a light blue appearance.

“There really are spirits.”

A thin sheen of cold sweat trickled down Wu Ge's forehead.

It's hard to imagine what kind of haunted house they just entered.

Click.

The sound of a camera rang in my ears.

Wu Ge turned his head and was immediately dumbfounded.

Hai Liang looked pained, but still took a picture of the rooftop of Sunbill City with his camera.

After taking a picture, he squinted at his camera screen.

The camera can only capture images of the coffins, but not of people that are actually visible to the naked eye.

"Uh."

With a painful murmur, Hailiang's eyes rolled back and he fainted again.

"Dedicated".

Wu Ge silently gave Hai Liang a thumbs up.

Slide down the hill.

Wu Ge rushed back to the hotel with Masked Cat.

Along the way, not a single light could be seen in the entire city of Zombil.

Previously, you could still see the lights from the houses of some travelers from other places, but now even they have turned off the lights in their own houses.

The entire town was like a ghost town.

Although Wu Ge could neither see the lights nor hear the sounds, he could still catch glimpses of people peeking out from some windows.

"This ancient wood town is actually haunted, and by a very powerful ghost at that."

Wu Ge pursed her lips and shook her head.

Thinking about the power of that lost coffin now, it's simply terrifying.

No wonder that spirit has been in the human world for more than twenty years. It turns out that there was a Heavenly King-level lost coffin that had lived for at least several hundred years guarding it.

but
"You even managed to defeat a Heavenly King-level Night Demon. Next time, it might be a Champion-level Night Demon or the Lord of the Spirit Realm. What do you plan to do then?"

Wu Ge turned his head to look in the direction of Xunbil City.

The coffin and the spirit's figure had completely disappeared from sight.

Return to the hotel.

Wu Ge threw Hai Liang back onto his big bed in his room.

Then he took the masked cat back to his room.

"Meow?"

Masked Cat glanced at Wu Ge.

She had absolutely no idea what Wu Ge saw on the rooftop.

Also, what's with the figure next to that Pokémon?

"Go to sleep early. Tomorrow we'll leave this city and continue north. I'll also try to persuade Hailiang."

Wu Ge shook his head and didn't say anything more.

Too much information.

He himself hasn't even sorted it out yet.

How do you explain this to Masked Cat?

In the original work, the concepts of the spirit world and spirits were not explored much; there was basically only a vague understanding.

So even though Wu Ge was a time traveler, he was still somewhat confused after witnessing such a thing.

For example, that spirit
If nothing unexpected happens, it should be the noble young master who died in the city of Sempile more than 20 years ago.

But why couldn't I see him before?
I recalled the chilly feeling I had behind me while I was in the castle.

He had no doubt that the spirit was lying on his back at that moment.

But why couldn't I see it back then?

You'll be able to see it later?
perhaps
That's related to the opening of the gate to the spirit world.

"Meow~"

Compared to the complicated adults, Shin-Ye-Nyan yawned and snuggled into Masked-Nyan's arms, assuming a sleeping posture.

"Go to sleep and we'll talk tomorrow."

Wu Ge reached out and stroked the masked cat's head, then lay down.

He also needs to tidy up tonight.
