The necromancer of the Pokémon world

Chapter 169 Blade Demon's Advancement and Little Tricks

As early as when Lin Ye grasped the "rough bone club," he tried to use necromancy to examine this strange object.

But to his surprise, the moment his mental energy came into contact with the "rough bone club," a fragment of memory flooded into his mind.

He saw a young man wearing a training uniform in the style of the Fuyan family from a hundred years ago, greeting Korakora in front of him.

The scene flashed by quickly; the Cubone brought back from Alola had long since evolved into Marowak, and the young trainer was no longer young.

Although that trainer was a direct descendant of the Flamebringer family, his skill level as a trainer was not particularly outstanding. In his entire life, he only managed to raise one "Gym Leader" Pokémon, Marowak.

And this was the result of him pouring almost all his resources into Marowak, even purchasing a high-quality "charcoal" item that was priceless and unavailable in order to help it successfully break through its bottleneck.

But the most suitable tool for Marowak is not "charcoal", but "bone stick".

This Marowak is special; it is an Alolan species but grew up in Hoenn and never found a suitable "Roughbone Club" in its entire life.

Finally, before his death, the trainer came up with an idea: to use a special method to refine himself, and then peacefully passed away in this cave.

The "Rough Bone Club" that fits the Alola Marowak in front of us was born from his own bones, and Marowak has been guarding this burial place for a hundred years after his death.

In other words, the green soul fire on this "thick bone stick" was actually born from the consciousness of that Cauldron Gym Leader from a hundred years ago, which is why Lin Ye could perceive it.

What this consciousness carries is not resentment or curse, but a pure bond that has spanned a century.

"I see, what a deeply moving bond!"

Feeling something was amiss, Lin Ye decided against harming the cackling ...

The Pokémon asked curiously, and Lin Ye told them that he had seen the memories of Marowak's trainer and learned that he had once gotten Marowak a high-quality "charcoal" that seemed to be hidden here.

So all the Pokémon joined in the search, and eventually Blademaster found it using its keen fire-type senses.

High-level items are extremely rare and hard to come by; they are priceless and unavailable on the market. Although they are theoretically worth around 100 million, no one is naive enough to think that they can easily buy them with 100 million or even 200 million.

This was Lin Ye's first time getting up close to a high-quality item, and he was deeply impressed by the pure energy contained within it.

With such an item by your side, the elemental affinity of Pokémon of the corresponding type will definitely improve by leaps and bounds.

"Hey~, now that you have the 'Rough Bone Club,' this is the most suitable tool for you."

But this "charcoal" won't be of much use to you anymore, so I'll accept it as compensation for letting you off the hook.

After saying that, Lin Ye put the "Rough Bone Club" back next to Gara Gara, and then replaced the Azure Flame Blade Demon's original intermediate item with high-grade "Charcoal".

Instantly, a strong heat surged up onto the Azure Flame Blade Demon, turning the dark blue flames on its body orange-red, and causing its energy fluctuations to surge violently.

"Are you getting a promotion?"

Lin Ye was worried that the Azure Flame Blade Demon's accumulation was not enough, so he immediately threw the high-grade "Fire Gem" that Mura had just given it to the former, adding fuel to the fire.

But Blaze is still too young, not even that long since it was born, yet it has to challenge the "Gym Leader level," a bottleneck that has blocked countless exceptionally talented Pokémon for their entire lives.

Seeing that it was unable to do so, Lin Ye could only turn his attention back to Gara Gara.

This time, however, Lin Ye did not extract most of the defeated warrior's essence in one go as before. Instead, he took a small portion of the energy with extreme restraint and gave it to the Azure Flame Blade Demon.

He estimated the parts that the Azure Flame Blade Demon lacked and deliberately preserved most of its original energy for Gala Gala.

This prevents it from becoming as weak as those previously drained Pokémon, which would take years or even decades to recover.

Given the abundant fire-elemental energy in Chimney Mountain, it should be able to recover most of its strength in less than six months.

Since this Marowak is already at the peak of "Gym Leader" level, even a small part of it is quite impressive.

"You've already absorbed a 'Master-level' source essence before, and you're only half a step away from breaking through. This should be enough."

After obtaining a small portion of the original essence of the Cragora, the flames on the Azure Flame Blade Demon intensified, beginning to display a scene of blue, green, and orange-red colors intertwined and intertwined.

The surrounding temperature soared rapidly, and Lin Ye and the Pokémon hurriedly retreated. Even the rocks beneath Azure Blade Ghost's feet and the surrounding walls began to melt in the high temperature.

Soon, the three colors of flame on the Azure Flame Blade Demon suddenly surged and then merged back into a dark blue color. The energy fluctuations it emitted also began to rise rapidly, eventually settling at the "Master Level".

Lin Ye nodded in satisfaction. Considering the Azure Flame Blade Demon, he now had three "Master-level" demons, and the latter was also wearing an extremely precious high-level item.

Considering Lin Ye's own level of necromancy as a great mage, there really aren't many people he can't afford to offend in the future. And when he sends Shenshan to capture other "Gym Leader-level" Ghost Pokémon next time, it will be even safer.

at the same time,--

In the night sky outside the city of Kanaz, a fire-breathing dragon was slowly descending, flapping its wings.

Aysa jumped off the dragon's back, found the Kanaz Gym, and then found the acting Gym Leader, Cuckoo, with practiced ease.

"Ha~~, Aya, why are you here so late at night instead of sleeping!" Dujuan said, yawning as she wore her pajamas.

"It's important!" The two were clearly very close, and Asha sat down on Dujuan's bed without any hesitation, slammed a whole bag of Fuma Senbei on the low table, and started chatting for a long time.

Du Juan's expression became subtle after hearing this: "So you were bullied by him and want me to help you get revenge?"

But we're about the same strength. You're no match for him, so why should I be able to defeat him?

"Oh dear, you've been dealing with rock Pokémon all the time, and it seems like you've inherited that trait."

The alliance said that dojos can decide their own assessment content, so why give them such an incredibly tedious task?

I don't need to defeat him, I just want him to fail the test and not become the gym leader!

"This... isn't that a bit inappropriate? I'm currently the acting gym leader, and our Rustboro Gym is known for its strict rules. Wouldn't this be...?"

"Oh my god, my best friend of over ten years, are you going to help me or not?"

"Okay, okay, I got it. I'll try to delay it as much as possible~~~"
