The game comes to reality! Start by tyrannizing Professor Oak

"That Gastly... is it dead?"

"So you turned into a ghost and disappeared?"

Each word was a word, but when put together and spoken aloud, Shen Qingqing was momentarily speechless, unsure of what she was saying.

Gastly is a Ghost-type Pokémon.

In a sense, its very existence is a manifestation of the ghost.

If it's already a ghost, how can it disappear again as a ghost?

Moreover, elves have very strong vitality; they are not so fragile that they would die immediately after a defeat.

But what happened earlier was just too bizarre.

It had a significant impact on her.

It feels unreal.

You should know that even in trials, when you defeat an elf, this has never happened before.

But at this very moment, they are still in the real world. Is this scientifically possible?!

"What exactly is going on?"

Shen Qingqing looked bewildered and could only turn to Chen Qi for help.

After all, he was the one who created this scene.

"I do not know either."

Chen Qi shook his head, his eyes even clearer than Shen Qingqing's. He said innocently, "This is my first day getting my training license and becoming a trainer."

"Miss Shen knows more than a newcomer like me, right?"

Shen Qingqing: ? ? ?

Each character is a Chinese character.

But when they're put together, she can't understand a thing.

Chapter 33 The Mysterious Black Card That Fell From Gastly?!

What newcomer?

What Trainer License... Day 1?

This really must be a dream...

She was so eager to find a top-quality ice stone so that her six-tailed fox could evolve into a nine-tailed fox.

That's why I had such an absurd dream.

It must be.

Otherwise, how could someone obtain a top-quality Ice Stone on their very first day of getting their Trainer License?

Take ten thousand steps back.

Even if he really is a chosen one, with incredible luck, and unexpectedly obtained a high-quality ice stone during his first trainer trial, how do you explain Momini's truly formidable strength?

No new player can get such a high-level Pokémon when they first choose their starter Pokémon.

Everyone starts as a level 5 baby.

Think about it, from the moment she obtained the Six-Tails to raising it to its current level 25, she has put in a lot of time and effort, and even risked participating in several trials for it.

I just recently managed to get my intermediate trainer license.

just now.

Some people say he's a newbie, having just received his trainer license on his first day.

However, she easily and almost overwhelmingly defeated a powerful Gastly (at least stronger than her own Vulpix).

Moreover, given his familiarity with berries and elves, he doesn't seem like a novice at all.

It is definitely at the level of a professional breeder (at least in theory).

If he's considered a newcomer, then what about her and Vulpix, who were defeated by Gastly?

New guy?

"You really just got your trainer license?"

"Is this your first day as a trainer?"

Unable to contain her curiosity, Shen Qingqing asked again to confirm.

"Ok!"

Chen Qi nodded. "It's genuine, it's definitely the first day. But to be precise, it's only been a little over four hours."

"Then, Miss Shen, may I ask you?"

"What exactly happened just now? Have you heard similar news before?"

"After an elf is defeated, it suddenly disappears... and leaves behind... spoils?"

Chen Qi handed the ice stone that had fallen from Gastly to Shen Qingqing.

Waiting for her reply.

Chen Qi was honest with Shen Qingqing about how long he had been a trainer because he wanted to earn her sincerity in return.

After all, the other party was born into an elven family, and their research on elves and understanding of trials were definitely much greater than his and most people's.

Even if you don't know now, you can go back and ask, and you might get a lot of useful information.

This is information that is extremely difficult for ordinary people to obtain.

Is this really not a fantasy?

Shen Qingqing wasn't unwilling to believe what Chen Qi said, but what he said was just too unbelievable. How could his starter Pokémon have such strong combat power after just one initial training session?

What did he experience during the trials?

We can't be fighting 24/7 without sleep.

Shen Qingqing took a deep breath, temporarily putting aside the shocking information brought about by Chen Qi's self-disclosure, and then focused her attention on another unbelievable matter.

"Although I haven't been a trainer for very long, only three months..." Shen Qingqing paused here, realizing that compared to some experienced trainers, she had only had her trainer license for a short time.

But for Chen Qi right now, three months might be a very long time.

Shen Qingqing didn't dwell on the timeline, but continued, "I can tell you with certainty that I have never encountered this situation before."

"To my knowledge, no one has ever encountered such a situation before."

"There are no wild elves in this world."

Trainers occasionally challenge each other to battles, but even if a Pokémon is seriously injured, it will not disappear.

“Those we brought out of the trials and into this world are real, existing life forms, not just a bunch of abstract data.”

Shen Qingqing clearly had her own thoughts about the trial and had some guesses at the moment. However, this only made her more confused and puzzled, and she found it difficult to understand what was happening in front of her.

Because of Gastly's disappearance, it seemed like a bunch of data that had wandered into the real world and was eventually corrected and cleared away.

Chen Qi nodded.

He gleaned a lot of information from Shen Qingqing's words.

At least we now know that what happened earlier was unbelievable even to people from long-established families of trainers.

Clearly, this is not the norm, nor is it something that can be seen everywhere.

This is likely a recent anomaly, and it may be related to the sudden, widespread eruption of trial light pillars.

Reality and trials are beginning to blur together; is time and space starting to intersect?

Just like the trials given by Ho-Oh, they were no longer confined to the trial space, but were brought into the real world.

Isn't this also a kind of confusion?

The appearance of Ho-Oh's shadow in reality may itself be a sign that chaos is beginning to emerge.

Regardless...

The world seems to be starting to become more interesting!

A broad, irrepressible smile unconsciously appeared on Chen Qi's face, filling him with anticipation for the future.

Shen Qingqing stood by, silently watching Chen Qi.

Watching his ever-changing expressions, sometimes frowning in deep thought, sometimes with an irrepressible smile, one couldn't help but become even more intrigued by him.

Who exactly is this person?

"what--"

Shen Qingqing suddenly remembered something and couldn't help but let out a soft cry. Seeing Chen Qi's gaze fall upon her, she blushed and said somewhat shyly, "Um..."

"I don't even know your name yet. How should I address you?"

Hear the words.

Chen Qi then realized that his attention had been focused on the tree fruit and he had forgotten to introduce himself. "My name is Chen Qi, just like I am saying now."

"I am a rookie trainer."

"It only took about four hours to get the trainer's license."

"I'll probably need your guidance in the future, Miss Qingqing."

Shen Qingqing: ...

good good!

Rookie Trainer!

Having received his trainer license for just over four hours, he's practically a brand-new rookie trainer.

For a moment, Shen Qingqing couldn't find the words to refute the other party.

When she recalled introducing herself, she proudly said that she was an intermediate trainer.

Shen Qingqing felt her face getting hot.

Waaaaah, she really got a harsh lesson from the newbie.

"Mr. Chen Qi, you're too kind."

"I should be the one asking you for advice."

Shen Qingqing quickly composed herself and replied politely, but her gaze couldn't help but fall on something else in Chen Qi's hand, intentionally or unintentionally.

That was another item that fell from Gastly.

A black card!

Chapter 34 The Ghost Thieves' Invitation Card

Chen Qi noticed Shen Qingqing's intentional or unintentional gaze.

He picked up the black card in his hand and said with a smile, "This is the spoils I got from defeating Gastly. Miss Qingqing, you won't try to take it from me, will you?"

"How could that be!" Shen Qingqing shook her head excitedly in denial, then added weakly, "I'd have to be able to snatch it from them first..."

I witnessed the scene of Momonene beating up Gastly.

She was certain that her Six-Tails was no match for Monini, unless it evolved into Nine-Tails using that ice stone, perhaps...

The thought of the significant boost to her strength after the Six-Tails evolved reignited the light in Shen Qingqing's eyes, and she felt ready to do it again.

You really want to steal it?

Chen Qi shook his head and chuckled, naturally not taking the murmured joke to heart.

However, it's clear that the other party is also very interested in the mysterious black card that fell from Gastly.

"If you just want to take a look, that's fine."

Chen Qi offered the black card to Shen Qingqing so she could take a look at it.
