Pokémon, you're not allowed to expel me from human form!

The top floors of his company building have always been reserved for him.

The top floor is the office, and the floors below are the laboratories. Doctors spend most of their lives living here.

Luo Ke was downstairs at that moment!

“This is it…”

He leaned against the shadows, his eyes gleaming with a ghostly blue light.

Although the doctor's building is equipped with many mental interference devices, these are all designed to counter external mental forces. Once Rocco enters the building, Victini's mental power can help him find everything he wants.

So all he needed to do was confirm that the doctor was there.

With this thought in mind, Luo Ke strode toward the building.

He held the single sword sheath in his hand, its blade wrapped around Rocco's entire right arm, and Ghost Z had been equipped with it by Rocco long ago.

Victini perched on Rocco's shoulder, maintaining its connection with Rocco while concealing its form, making it undetectable.

"Well..."

Ditto appeared in front of Rocco at that moment. It was surprised to see that not only Victini, but even Monocle could fight alongside Rocco. Although it could understand this, it was still a little downcast.

In the past, Luo Ke was unaware that it had such thoughts, but now that it knows and has seen them, Luo Ke will not leave it unattended.

So he slowly squatted down in front of Ditto, extended his hand without the sword, let Ditto climb onto his hand, and then lifted it up.

As he locked eyes with Ditto through his deep blue eyes, Rocco's thoughts were transmitted to Ditto's mind via his mental powers.

'Well!'

Ditto paused for a moment, then quickly became excited and completed the transformation in Rocco's hands.

It turned into a strange mask!

It is entirely black, lacks facial features, and its material is not solid, yet it has distinct edges and corners.

Rocco pressed the mask to his face, and under Ditto's control, the mask came to life and attached itself, extending down Rocco's neck.

In an instant, the same darkness began to spread from beneath Luo Ke's wrists, covering his exposed hands completely.

The black substance even spread to the scabbard, engulfing its original scabbard and staining its guard completely black, leaving only its blood-red single eye and the equally blood-red blade!

Under these circumstances, two beams of red light ignited in the area where Luo Ke's eyes were.

His appearance, combined with his black trench coat, made him look like a demon from hell.

Thus, with steady steps, Luo Ke approached the building where the doctor was located, his voice becoming incredibly rough and heavy under the influence of the mask.

"lets go."

...

The doctor's confidence in the building he was in was not without reason.

He has lived here for decades, and naturally, he has been decorating here for decades as well.

He personally designed all the internal security checkpoints and measures.

Even directly below his floor, several floors were completely renovated by him.

During the day, nothing will happen, but before the Doctor goes to sleep, all the tens of thousands of mechanisms on these floors will be activated, and everyone except Kelly and himself will have to break through them if they want to.

And after the first mechanism is triggered, an alarm will sound on the doctor's side, informing him of everything.

The windows on the outside of his floor were all made of special materials, and the interior was equally extraordinary.

If I had to put it in words, this no longer resembles a human dwelling; it's more like a prison that holds demons captive!

The bottom levels are useless to Roco.

For those requiring fingerprint unlocking, once Victini's mental energy locates the corresponding fingerprint, Rocco simply places his finger on it. Ditto will then transform itself accordingly after Victini shares the fingerprint through her mental energy.

The other unlocking methods are the same as those for Catherine and Ditto, and are completely easy to use.

Even if some parts use the sturdiest doors and the oldest locks, Rocco can extend a part of Ditto from his fingertips, and with the penetration of his mental power, make Ditto extend into the corresponding shape, directly opening the lock!

If machines and mechanisms are all useless, then living people are even less of a threat.

If Ditto is the master key to unlocking these physical objects, then Victini's psychic powers are the master key to unlocking these living people.

During the time it followed Luo Ke, its improvement in other aspects was only average, but its improvement in mental strength was exceptionally significant.

When humans are swept by its mental power, they will fall into a coma under the mental impact. As for the elves who will not lose their fighting ability, before they can do anything after discovering it, a dark shadow will appear behind them and knock them unconscious with one blow.

These doctors' confident precautions amounted to nothing more than that for Rocco's companions.

They carried Rocco and easily arrived at the first floor, which had been completely renovated and prepared by the doctor.

'Tini...'

Victini's mental energy detected countless complex mechanisms, causing its voice to become somewhat serious for a moment.

'alone.'

The spiritual power within the single sword sheath also came into play, confirming the complexity of these mechanisms.

At that moment, Luo Ke's voice finally rang out.

"Alright, that's enough. Thank you for your help earlier. Leave the rest to me."

As he said this, Luo Ke raised the scabbard of his single sword, and then—swung the sword!

'Ding--'

On the floor where the professor was, the alarm sounded immediately. The professor then opened his eyes, picked up the Poké Ball he had placed under his pillow, and pressed the switch on the bedside table.

"Someone actually attacked directly?"

At first, the doctor was surprised, but that surprise quickly turned into a smile.

A genuinely happy smile!

"Haha, although I don't know if it was done by the Lorraine family or the Alliance, you did a great job!"

"Yes, that's exactly how it should be! That's wisdom! That's rationality!"

As he spoke, he got up and casually put on the white robe that represented his identity as a researcher.

"Since you've given me such a surprise, then let me take over the control room and see who you really are, while also having some serious fun with you~"

At that moment, he felt like a player who had been playing single-player games for decades was encountering other players for the first time!

He felt that his skills, honed over so many years, had finally found a place to be put to use.

but...

That was all he had time to do.

Before he could even leave his bedroom, his specially made bedroom door, which normally even an ivory pig couldn't break down, was kicked open.

In such a short time, the several floors he had completely renovated had all been reduced to ruins.

And now, a demon with glowing red eyes appeared right in front of him!

......

69. What others consider inhumane, he finds highly efficient.

What elf is this?

This was the Doctor's first thought upon seeing Rocco.

As for your statement that Rocco is not an elf, but a human...

Impossible, absolutely impossible!

He is confident in his knowledge!

His knowledge doesn't support him calling such things human!

But the elves don't mind, since they are intelligent too, so they can communicate!

The professor gripped the Poké Ball tightly behind his back, his mind racing.

Where is your master?

“Since someone wants to deal with me, they couldn’t have sent just one elf—I bet your master and the other companions are still in the floor I modified. They created the opportunity for you, which is why you got up here so quickly, right?”

"So you're a Ghost-type? You should also be Dark-type...or Poison-type? Fighting-type?"

"It's really interesting to see elves I've never seen before."

As Rocco walked toward him, the doctor slowly retreated, while constantly speaking, attempting to achieve some goal through rhetoric and to obtain some information through observation.

But Ditto's black shell doesn't display any expressions, so his observations were destined to be in vain.

As for what he said...

"Oh, I see—calling a Pokémon trainer 'Master'—if I remember correctly, this term was abolished back when the League was founded. Wasn't this the most common term during the ancient kingdoms?"

"As expected, you gave yourself away as soon as you opened your mouth."

As he spoke, Luo Ke shook his head slightly, and without stopping, he simply raised his sword upright.

"Wait, you can talk? Are you a talking elf or... are you human!?"

The doctor's eyes widened in utter astonishment.

However, he was already leaning against the wall with nowhere to retreat, and Luo Ke had no interest in wasting words with him. As he stepped forward, his sword stabbed directly at the doctor!

"Wait, you can't kill me!"

"I have other plans, yes, I have a backup plan. If you kill me..."

puff!

The doctor wanted to continue struggling, but once Roc drew his sword, there was no turning back.

The single sword sheath pierced through the Doctor's chest in an instant. With this blow, blood flowed from the Doctor's mouth. Before losing consciousness, he still had a wide-eyed expression, as if he could not believe the outcome at all.

At that moment, the eye on the hilt of the monopod sword turned blood red.

Immediately afterwards, its immense spiritual power began to spread from the doctor's heart, and in an instant, it covered his entire body!

The doctor is not dead yet; spiritual energy is keeping him alive, he has just fainted.

'Tini'

Bictini materialized from Rocco's shoulder, and Rocco released the monoscabbard, allowing the monoscabbard, now restored to its original form, to float to the side.

Bathed in moonlight, he casually picked up the Poké Ball that had fallen to the ground due to the professor's unconsciousness and peered inside through the red part.

Then he saw this Pokémon that hadn't come to the rescue when its trainer was almost killed.

Its condition is definitely not good right now.

Although the cat's eyes were open, they were completely devoid of any spirit, and it had more than a dozen collar-like devices on its body.

Seeing this, Luo Ke had essentially sentenced the doctor to death.

but...

"I also have a compassionate heart. Before I decide to get rid of you, let me make one last confirmation."

As he said this, Roco gave Bictini and the single-edged sword a look.

Thus—powerful mental energy pierced the doctor's brain, and powerful spiritual energy took control of his body.

This is why Rocco was unwilling to waste time talking to the doctor.

Because whatever he wants to know and the doctor knows, the doctor will tell him personally.

People in this world might think that Luo Ke's actions at this moment are radical, extreme, and inhumane.

but...

He calls this efficient!

...

What exactly did the Doctor do...? Roco felt that if Alice and the Alliance were to investigate, even if the Doctor abandoned his underhanded tactics and simply refused to cooperate with the investigation, given Alice and the others' methods, it might take several years before they could find out everything.

Luo Ke felt that there was a meme that people used from time to time on the internet in his past life, and it was just right to describe the doctor.

That's the evaluation Tobirama Senju gave to the Uchiha clan in Naruto.
