A spirit descends, Gardevoir is my childhood friend?

Goodness, so the reason there are a thousand display cases is because there are only a thousand display cases, not because there are only a thousand props.

However, it doesn't matter; the more of these materials the better, since no one else knows their uses.

Lin Xiaolin checked each item one by one, and it took her half an hour to finish.

There are three Key Stones and 11 Mega Stones. Wow, so these things aren't that rare after all. Finding Key Stones in Star City is pure luck.

I checked the Mega Stones myself, and there were two Beedrill, one Mawile, Altaria, and some other miscellaneous ones.

I've looked at so many, but I haven't seen Gardevoir. Who can I complain to?

"By the way, do you still have this kind of stone in your warehouse?"

Lin Xiaolin suddenly remembered something and asked the staff member standing at the door.

After all, it seems that Longdu has quite a lot of research materials.

"Okay, I'll ask for you."

The staff immediately took out walkie-talkies and began communicating.

After exchanging words for a few minutes, a response came from the other end.

"I'm sorry, sir, there are no more identical stones left. They're all here."

"Ok."

Lin Xiaolin was a little disappointed. After all, it would be great if she could find Xiao Lan's Mega Evolution Stone here, but she shouldn't be discouraged if she didn't find it. Mega Evolution is something that can't be rushed.

In the end, Lin Xiaolin chose a beautiful scale.

After packing everything up, Lin Xiaolin came out carrying her three research materials.

"Sigh, we've gone back to square one."

Lin Xiaolin couldn't help but sigh, researchers make money quickly but also spend it quickly. The one million association points he had earned from research had dwindled to only two hundred thousand.

Without stopping, Lin Xiaolin hailed a taxi and headed straight to the airport.

Lin Xiaolin sat in the car and began to think. Before the Mega Evolution report came out, he would try to monopolize the Mega Evolution Stones and Key Stones available on the market, and then release the theory of Mega Evolution.

Once you have Mega Evolution, Mega Stones and Key Stones won't be something you can get with just a little money; they'll require favors and huge sums of cash.

However, most of the high-ranking officials in the Dragon Kingdom might owe Lin Xiaolin a favor in order to achieve super evolution, and this favor is no ordinary favor.

At the very least, if Lin Xiaolin ever needs anything in the future, these people will definitely mobilize as a whole.

Chapter 103 Returning Home, Star City

Lin Xiaolin had already begun to fantasize in her mind.

[Lin Xiaolin smiled crookedly, and behind him appeared 100,000 Heavenly Kings who knelt down in unison, chanting "Welcome the Dragon King!"]

"Pah, pah, pah, I've narrowed my path," Lin Xiaolin shook her head, trying to banish the image from her mind.

The car journey took five or six hours, and by the time Lin Xiaolin arrived at the airport, it was already dark.

I randomly picked a noodle shop, ate a bowl of noodles, and then boarded a plane back to Changsha.

To sum up my trip to Longdu in one sentence.

What the hell should you do? Don't take the bus! It's so congested!

Lin Xiaolin vowed that he would never come to these big cities again until he had a Flying-type Pokémon. As for renting a mount?

Wouldn't it be better to just buy myself some spare ribs with that money? I'm not some rich kid like Yan Fan.

Yan Fan, who was at home, suddenly sneezed: "Achoo! Who the hell is talking about me behind my back?"

Lin Xiaolin fell asleep as soon as she boarded the plane home, and when she woke up again, the plane had already landed.

After getting off the plane and collecting my luggage, I walked out of the airport.

It was already six o'clock in the morning, and the sky outside was just beginning to lighten.

Lin Xiaolin spotted her father yawning at the airport arrival gate immediately.

"Dad." Lin Xiaolin walked straight over with her luggage.

"Let's go." Mr. Lin got into his sports car.

Lin Xiaolin put her luggage away and got into the car.

"Hey, your mom almost smashed my car."

Lin's father was driving and sighing.

"What's wrong?" Lin Xiaolin asked curiously.

“She originally wanted to come too, but the car can only fit two people, and she can’t drive, so I had to drive. She kicked me awake at four o’clock this morning.”

Lin's father sighed.

"Haha, who told you to buy a two-seater sports car?" Lin Xiaolin said gloatingly from the side.

"Hmph! By the way, you're pretty good, kid. You secretly published a B-level research report."

"No big deal, just a piece of cake. I might even surpass your research level soon."

Lin Xiaolin immediately became smug, thinking that his research on the three materials he had might actually catch up with his father's research level.

"Heh, you're just a newborn calf that's not afraid of tigers. Your dad used to think the same way. There's no such thing as a free lunch. Besides, your dad might be able to get an A-rank Poké Ball once he finishes his research."

When the topic of research came up, Lin's father immediately perked up.

"How many kinds of balls do you have over there?" Lin Xiaolin asked casually, leaning back in his car seat.

"There are now six types: one is a Poké Ball for catching large Pokémon, which is relatively heavy; another is a Poké Ball for catching Water, Flying, and Bug types; another is a Poké Ball that can slowly heal Pokémon injuries; and a Poké Ball that is more durable than a regular Poké Ball and has a higher catch rate. We are currently working on an even more durable Poké Ball."

Wow, Mr. Lin is really fast! He's made so many different types of balls in less than a year.

"By the way, this is the suggestion you gave me. Why don't you give these balls a name?" Lin's father glanced at Lin Xiaolin.

Lin Xiaolin pondered for a moment and said, "Let's call the ball that catches large Pokémon a Heavy Ball, the Flying type a Feather Ball, the Water type a Dive Ball, the Bug type a Net Ball, the one with a high catch rate a Great Ball, the one that can heal Pokémon a Heal Ball, and the one with the higher catch rate that you're making now a Super Ball."

Lin Xiaolin simply used the names of these balls from his previous life.

Lin's father considered these names and thought they were good; you could tell what purpose they served just by hearing them—simple and clear.

"When is the Researcher Competition? I'm planning to participate too," Lin Xiaolin suddenly asked.

"Only C-level researchers can participate, and you, with only D-level qualifications, can't even participate?"

"Don't worry about that. I have two more reports to release soon, which should get me to [C] level."

Lin Xiaolin waved his hand. Participating in the researcher competition was something he had only just thought of; he hadn't considered it before. Now that he had these three materials, there shouldn't be any problems.

"Is your family's research just about growing Chinese cabbage? Is it that simple?" Mr. Lin asked with some skepticism.

"Isn't that it?"

Lin Xiaolin thought about it and it really made a lot of sense; he could make it as long as he had the materials.

Lin's father: "..."

"On December 1st, this year it is in the Craftsman City."

Upon hearing this, Lin Xiaolin's eyes lit up. Good heavens, the home of the Azure Flame Blade Ghost, which he had been dreaming of!

It seems I have no choice but to participate in this researcher competition.

The father and son chatted intermittently in the car and soon returned to the dojo.

As soon as I went upstairs, I saw Lin's mother sitting at the table, having already prepared breakfast.

"Wow, Xiao Lin is finally back."

When Lin's mother saw Lin Xiaolin, she immediately went up and hugged her, and then held Lin Xiaolin's face and looked at it for a long time.

"Why are you so thin?"

The more Lin's mother looked, the deeper her brows furrowed.

Lin Xiaolin: "......"

How could I not lose weight if I ate fruit every day? Even though I thought that, I still comforted myself with those words.

"No, Mom, I've gained a lot of weight, look."

As she spoke, Lin Xiaolin stood directly on the scale next to her, and her weight of 98 pounds was immediately displayed.

"You've gained so much weight, that shouldn't be happening."

Lin's mother was looking at the scale with a puzzled expression when suddenly Lin Xiaolin pulled her right trouser leg forward, revealing her complete leg.

"Ah!" Lin's mother was startled, and even Lin's father came over.

"Xiao Lin, how did your leg get better? Am I dreaming?"

Lin's mother placed her hand on Lin Xiaolin's leg and stroked it twice to confirm its authenticity.

"Haha, let's eat first, and talk while we eat."

As she spoke, Lin Xiaolin sat down at the dining table.

Lin Xiaolin only mentioned that Lingxin healed his leg, without mentioning Xerneas, since no one would believe him anyway, so he simply attributed it all to Lingxin.
