"Could it be that my backup phone has been idle for too long and is malfunctioning?"

Shen Qingqing asked the question with a surprised look.

"It's not a problem with your phone."

Chen Qi shook his head, but didn't say anything more. Instead, he looked at Grandma Mu Xiu.

"What are you looking at me for?"

"Let the kids go do what they're supposed to do!"

Grandma Mu Xiu glared at Chen Qi with annoyance, then put the unconscious Gengar back into its Poké Ball and left without looking back.

Chen Qi: ...

How can an old person turn on you so easily!

You still owe me a question!

How could you just leave like that!

Chen Qi called out in his heart for a long time, but in the end he still didn't open his mouth.

He witnessed Gengar being brutally beaten by Giratina firsthand; it was already a miracle he wasn't silenced. Going in at a time like this would only make things difficult for himself.

He's not a fool like Mu Xiu.

He went straight into the fire.

Mu Xiu deliberately made an exaggerated expression, grimacing and clutching his buttocks. Although his grandmother had hit him hard, she had only hit the fleshy parts, so the pain was only temporary.

Seeing his grandmother leave, he immediately let go of her hand and jumped up, calling out to Chen Qi and the others, "The haunted house is ready! Let's start our adventure now!"

"Great!"

After confirming that Chen Qi was not injured, Chen Duo's tense heart immediately relaxed.

At this moment, they were already eager to experience the haunted house.

See this.

Chen Qi also temporarily put aside all those thoughts.

When it's time to play, you should play hard.

In particular, his newly acquired Forced Love Badge should make this haunted house even more interesting.

……

……

Just after Chen Qi and the others entered the enclosed haunted house.

An undercover police officer appeared outside the haunted house, and Grandma Mu Xiu seemed to have anticipated this, as she was already waiting at the door early in the morning.

"What a rare visitor!"

"Officer Dong, would you like to come and explore my haunted house today?"

"You should know why I'm here, right?"

"How is he? Is he alright?"

"You mean that kid? He's doing great!"

"The people from Oak's Laboratory are truly chosen ones; their arrival has already caused a stir in Giratina."

"Luckily, the kid ran into a Giratina who was relatively easy to talk to."

"Time to switch to Berserk mode, ha..."

Dong Lingfan glanced at Grandma Mu Xiu, and then spoke.

"We don't have much time left."

"It's about time to start the project left behind by the first generation!"

The two exchanged a glance, both feeling immense pressure from each other's gaze.

……

midnight.

It wasn't until after midnight that Chen Qi and Chen Duo ended their day of playing and returned home.

"Today was so much fun!"

"I met so many people, so many elves."

"The haunted house at Mu Xiu's house is really scary, but it's also really fun. Especially Mu Xiu, that coward. Even though it's his own house, he screams more miserably than anyone else. He's almost crying."

"The fighting arena and the Pokémon bookstore are also really interesting."

"I never imagined I'd get to wrestle with so many Fighting-type Pokémon."

"..."

Seeing Chen Duo looking energetic and not tired at all, Chen Qi couldn't help but shake his head and chuckle, giving her a loving slap on the head.

Then I rubbed it vigorously.

"Go wash up and go to bed."

"Don't forget, we made an appointment with Miss Qingqing to go to her family's manor tomorrow morning."

"If you sleep in late and can't get up, I won't take responsibility for you."

"Good good!"

"Can't I go wash up now!" Chen Duo was very happy at the thought of seeing the beautiful and elegant Nine-Tailed Fox again tomorrow. She hummed a little tune as she went to wash up.

And taking advantage of this rare moment of quiet.

Chen Qi also took out the badges he had collected that day.

The Lighthouse Badge, the Nirvana Badge, the Stove Badge, the Fighting Badge, and the Nether Badge (Giratina's Forced Love Badge).

I originally thought collecting badges would be a difficult task.

But to his surprise, he had already accumulated five badges in just one day.

He was now much closer to starting his special trial.

The "Warm Stove Badge" is currently the most useful badge for Chen Qi.

After all, there was still an eagerly awaiting sprite egg lying inside his Nirvana Badge. With the effect of the Heater Badge, the sprite egg could hatch much faster.

Chen Qi held the Nirvana Badge and the Stove Badge together in his hands.

I'll put the other badges away first.

However, an unexpected change occurred.

Suddenly, a fiery halo appeared on the Nirvana Badge, followed by a powerful suction force that caused the Hearth Badge to vanish instantly.

Chen Qi: ? ? ?

Where is my big badge?

Why is it gone?!

Can a badge eat another badge?

Chen Qi was quite certain that what he just witnessed was that the [Nirvana Badge] had swallowed the [Warm Stove Badge], and he wasn't exaggerating at all; it was exactly as the name suggests—swallowed.

Chen Qi quickly picked up the [Nirvana Badge] and began to examine it.

[Ho-Oh's Rebirth Emblem: Contains within it a wisp of dying flame of rebirth, capable of accommodating special Pokémon eggs, igniting their life force, and infusing them with nutrients to accelerate hatching.]

[Secondary Effect - Furnace Fire: Absorbs flames to fuel the flames of rebirth; melts fruits to extract nutrients, accelerating the hatching of spirit eggs.]

Looking at the Nirvana Badge and its newly added secondary effect, Furnace Fire, Chen Qi's expression improved considerably.

It seems that the Nirvana Badge did not simply absorb the Stove Badge, but rather combined its effects with its own, essentially giving itself an upgrade and gaining additional benefits.

This additional effect is something the original fireplace badge did not have.

And it produced two effects at once!

First, it absorbs the flames to fuel the flames of rebirth.

Secondly, the fruit is melted down to extract nutrients, which accelerates the hatching of the Pokémon egg.

Unfortunately, Chen Qi didn't have a Fire-type Pokémon, otherwise he would definitely have tried out this first new secondary effect right now.

Although there was no flame.

However, Chen Qi still had some tree fruit in his possession.

Before parting, Shen Qingqing took out a lot of tree fruits from her handbag that she had originally prepared as snacks for the Nine-Tailed Fox.

Although it is a berry that is more suitable for the tastes of ice-type and fairy-type elves.

However, since it's been melted and extracted, the taste is probably not that important.

With that in mind, Chen Qi immediately took action.

He took out all the tree fruits he had on him.

Chapter 78 Upgrade! The Additional Effects of the Nirvana Badge!

In case.

Chen Qi first chose the relatively safe orange fruit for his experiment.

Orange berries are the main ingredient used to make healing potions, which can help Pokémon recover some of their stamina and are unlikely to cause any adverse effects.

He placed the selected orange fruit on the Nirvana Badge.

Then, an invisible flame ignited on the orange fruit, quickly melting it and absorbing all its nutrients into the badge.

As for impurities and excess waste, they were burned directly into ashes in the flames, leaving no residue.

Chen Qi kept a close eye on the state of the elf egg inside the Nirvana Badge.

At this moment, with the injection of nutrient solution from the orange fruit, although it remained motionless, the patterns on the eggshell brightened slightly, as if one could feel its breathing.

it works!

Chen Qi's eyes lit up, and he became excited.

Then, he took out several different tree fruits and threw them into the Nirvana Badge one by one.

To be precise, it was in the furnace that came with the Nirvana Badge.

After some attempts.

Chen Qi discovered that although almost all tree fruits can provide nutrients to help the Pokémon eggs hatch, there seemed to be some slight differences in the reactions.

Just like the little creature inside the fairy egg, which has its own preferences, when it touches its favorite berry, the patterns on the eggshell shimmer even brighter.

Fruits like wild apple, fragrant pomelo, and succulent will make the reaction more obvious.

Of all the tree fruits, chocolate is its favorite.

Choco is a hard and spicy fruit, but heating it will enhance its sweetness and make its taste richer.

Secondly, there's the spice fruit, which looks just like a chili pepper.

Its flavor is also known for being spicy, extremely spicy, and very few people can finish a whole one.

Let alone humans, even fire-type Pokémon can easily be made to breathe fire by the spiciness of the Spicy Fruit.

"This little guy has some rather unique tastes!"

Of course, this is a nutrient solution extracted after being smelted in a furnace, so its taste will definitely be different from that of a solution used directly.

Perhaps it is this spiciness that makes the flames burn even more intensely.

"Brother, what are you doing!"

Chen Duo, who had just finished washing up, came out and saw Chen Qi fiddling with something in the living room. She couldn't help but curiously come over.

"Is this the Nirvana Badge?"

Are you feeding the Pokémon egg inside with berries?
