Pokémon, but cultural invasion.

Giratina couldn't help but stomp his foot. Who on earth put His image into the computer?

How dare he?

Is it reasonable for a legendary Pokémon that has never appeared in a thousand years and has never done anything bad, but is treated as some heinous being just because of its bad reputation?

He was awakened from his nap by a buzzing whisper, and when he woke up, he was met with a scene that infuriated the dragon.

Giratina was breathing heavily through its nose, and it even felt a little aggrieved.

When He was banished by Arceus, He was only angry, never resentful!

We need to find out who the real culprit is.

By constantly adjusting the mirror, Giratina embarked on a crash course in computer knowledge.

Internet, forums, navigators, games...

After gaining a thorough understanding of the computer and its contents, Giratina easily identified the culprit.

A young man was holding Soroya in his arms, warming himself by the fire in a wooden cabin on the island, with a thick blanket covering his knees.

Enemies meeting are bound to be extremely hostile.

Giratina stretched out its claws, the dark golden claws poking at the "glass," trying to reach the front of the world.

But the "glass" was so narrow and its claws so huge that it was impossible for it to squeeze in.

"Roar!"

Giradina paced back and forth angrily, yet there was nothing he could do.

The scarlet, ferocious eyes circled around and finally returned to the human woman holding the platinum jewel.

......

"The operation was executed brilliantly. You made an outstanding contribution to our Galactic Team's grand plan."

After handing over the three precious pearls, Lord Chi Ri's encouraging words often echoed in Huo Xing's mind.

She was genuinely thrilled.

But on the very night he brought back the three precious pearls, Huo Xing began to dream.

The dream was in a dark and vast space, where a huge shadow, as large as a mountain, stared at her with its scarlet eyes wide open.

As if bearing immense pressure, Huo Xing dared not move an inch in his dream.

She didn't take it seriously at first, but the bizarre dream lasted for several days, with no change in content. It was always the other person watching, and she standing like a statue.

Meanwhile, a female subordinate at the same secret base reported to her that she had recently started sleepwalking frequently.

Huo Xing reviewed the base's footage from the past period. The first time she sleepwalked, she simply stood by the window and watched the night view all night.

The second time was walking around the base, and the third time was sitting in front of the high-performance computer provided to her by the organization...

After that, his sleepwalking mostly involved sitting in front of the computer, clicking the mouse, and occasionally typing on the keyboard.

In order to find out what he did while sleepwalking, Huo Xing pulled up the computer's usage details.

The organization is equipped with special computers that record everything that is run.

The initial use of it was to look up information about "Plants vs. Ghosts" in a browser.

Later, I got smarter and went to video websites, and even clicked "dislike" under every game-related video.

On the third day, "she" downloaded Plants vs. Ghosts and spent five nights playing it to the final level.

Strangely, there are no logs of the Giratina boss fight.

Huo Xing doesn't understand games, but she knows that the ultimate goal of playing games is usually to complete the game.

Afterwards, "she" registered an account called "Arceus Kneel Down!" on Navigator and carried out indiscriminate slander and attacks under a certain Navigator account.

The unfortunate victim of the attack is Izumi, who appears to be the author of "Plants vs. Ghosts".

Actually, he wasn't unlucky, because all the offensive comments about "Arceus kneeling down!" have been deleted and he's been banned.

They were probably treated as paid trolls.

After reviewing all the recordings, Huo Xing was still completely unaware of what was happening to him.

Her only guess was that she had become tainted by something unclean while stealing the three ancient pearls.

That was an ancient treasure, perhaps containing an ancient ghost-type spirit that somehow possessed her.

This is not an isolated case; it has happened frequently to tomb raiders in the past.

After much deliberation, Huo Xing decided to ask a malevolent exorcist for help.

Possessed ghosts are most afraid of Dark-type Pokémon. The Dark-type Pokémon in the base have been tested but it didn't work, so let's ask a proper professional to take a look.

The most renowned exorcist admitted that he could not see any signs of ghostly possession on her, and even suspected that she was there to cause trouble.

Huo Xing suppressed her anger and left dejectedly. She dared not cause trouble, as news of the stolen pearl had already spread, and she could not reveal any clues.

"Lord Huoxing, you may not really be possessed by a ghost, but rather you've been under too much work pressure lately."

"Stress can trigger and worsen sleepwalking symptoms. When you sleepwalk and play games, you say it's like an ancient ghost wanting to try modern entertainment. In my opinion, it's actually your inner distress signal that you want to relax."

Her subordinate's words made Huo Xing doubt herself. Could it be that there really was no ghost, and that everything was caused by her being under too much pressure?

Huo Xing, who hadn't slept well for a long time, could feel that his judgment and thinking abilities had declined significantly. If this continued, it would definitely affect the work assigned by Lord Chi Ri.

She compromised: "Then tell me, what are some good ways to quickly relieve stress?"

The members of the villainous organization also have their own lives; work and leisure complement each other and are indispensable.

In other words, the reason he joined Team Galactic was partly because he believed in the promises made by Lord Akatsuki, and partly because he wanted to get ahead and enjoy life.

So his subordinates recommended several popular movies that were about to be released to Huo Xing.

"The quickest way to relieve stress is, of course, to go to the cinema and watch a full movie."

"Whether it makes you laugh out loud or bring you to tears, it can quickly relieve stress."

"It's true. I cried for a few minutes when I watched 'Robot Dad' last time. When I left the movie theater, all my stress was gone and I felt relaxed."

"Isn't Director Quan's 'How to Train Your Dragon' about to be released? Why don't you go see that, Mr. Star?"

"Is this your first time watching a movie, Lord Huoxing? Let us accompany you."

Several subordinates chimed in, all highly praising watching movies as a relaxing way to unwind.

Seeing their concerned looks and the fact that they wanted to accompany him to the movie theater, Huo Xing felt a sense of relief. The Galaxy Team really is a warm family.

She asked her subordinates for more information and learned that the film's director was Izumi Kizuki, the producer of "Plants vs. Ghosts".

Perhaps it's all preordained. Since I play his games when I'm sleepwalking, watching his movies when I'm awake is a way of fighting fire with fire.

"Okay, go book a few movie tickets."

After she turned around, her subordinates exchanged glances, the unspoken message clear: "Plan works!"

With the Galaxy's capabilities, getting a few tickets to popular movies wouldn't be difficult.

On the day the movie was released, his subordinates happily pushed their boss, Mr. Star, to the cinema.

Huo Xing paused for a few seconds as he walked towards the screening room after having his ticket checked.

"What's wrong, Lord Huoxing?"

A subordinate was about to ask a question, but when he looked up and met Huo Xing's blood-red eyes, he instantly fell silent.

what's the situation?

"roar~"

With a low, inhuman roar, Huoxing continued forward, and his other subordinates quickly followed.

The subordinate who noticed the anomaly froze on the spot.

"No, Arceus, is there really a ghost?"

Chapter 157 Youthful Spirit

Yanmo City.

Located in the northeastern corner of the Johto region, this place is known as the "Land of Dragons" because of the presence of a dragon's lair. Most of the trainers here are skilled in using Dragon-type Pokémon.

The future Unova Champion, Alice, will emerge from Dragon Village and embark on a magnificent and wondrous journey.

The residents and trainers of Blacksmith City have an extraordinary love and passion for Dragon-type Pokémon, so dragon-related culture is prevalent here.

Speaking of the most popular dragon-themed series recently, it is naturally "How to Train Your Dragon" starring the pride of the dragon's hometown - Dragon Crossing.

The film's subject matter and title were already incredibly appealing to the residents of Dragon Village, especially with the lead role played by A-du from the Dragon Clan, a well-known champion of the Dragon lineage.

They couldn't help but applaud director Quanshu's casting choice, how could they be so suitable?

In essence, Yanmo City is actually a large community of dragon enthusiasts.

Even before the film was officially released, the streets and alleys of this ancient city were already covered with promotional posters and slogans.

As the date drew near, the entire city was gripped by a subtle frenzy.

"The elders and fellow villagers of the Dragon Clan of Dragon's Land have all come."

Although Adu had mentioned his movie-making to the people in his hometown, he didn't think much of it at the time. But now that his fellow villagers were sitting in the audience, he felt a long-lost sense of shyness.

The last time this happened was when he participated in the Quartz Conference and challenged the previous champion.

After successfully defending his title each time, the villagers stopped coming.

Adu is already desensitized to his status as a champion, but this is the first time he's acted on screen, pretending to be young, especially in front of the villagers who watched him grow up...

The scene was quite noisy, with middle-aged people talking loudly in the back, while the front row was mostly filled with children and young people who had not yet traveled.

One of the energetic girls with tanned skin was jumping around among her companions, displaying exceptional vitality.

"The movie is about to start, bro, you should get off the stage."

Xiao Chun, the owner of the Yanmo Museum, pulled up the curtain, allowing several particularly lively and active audience members to return to their seats.

"Thank you for your help."

A-Du nodded, walked off the stage, and sat down in his seat.

He had read the script and participated in part of the filming, so he knew the story outline and plot in advance, but even so, he was still full of anticipation.

The stories of humans and dragons, or rather, humans and Pokémon, as told by Izumi-sensei are ingenious and extremely moving.

I wanted to share this with my fellow townsmen in Yanmo City, not because he acted in the movie, but because the movie itself is a good story, nothing more.

The curtain rose, and the lights in the screening room went out one by one.

Realizing something, the previously noisy chatter abruptly stopped, and even the rustling sounds of people taking things and adjusting their postures completely disappeared.

The screen gradually lit up, reflecting in pairs of wide-eyed eyes.

...

The film was released simultaneously across the entire region. In the cinemas of Veil City, the members of Team Galactic eagerly awaited the premiere, following the rhythm of their leader, Star Lord.

Only one member remained timid and hesitant, occasionally glancing furtively at Lord Huoxing's expression, while also seeming to want to say something to his companions but holding back.

'By Arceus, how terrifying must a ghost be to go undetected even by exorcists!'

Having existed for thousands of years, it wouldn't be an exaggeration to say that this Ghost-type Pokémon has become a spirit.

He was on the verge of tears, and now he was sitting in the same row of seats in the screening room as this freak, ready to watch a movie.

His blood-red eyes stared angrily at the big screen.

Is this thing watching a movie while it's angry?

When the lights in the screening room went out and the big screen came on, he dared not speak even more.

'Maybe this idiot will leave after the movie? Besides, we're already here, let's watch it first...'

Forcing himself to comfort himself, he looked up and saw the sea shrouded in white mist and the vast night sky.

The sound of waves and the cries of long-winged gulls echoed in my ears.

A soothing orchestral ensemble, dominated by cello, with a distinctive style, drifts from the distant sea.

A steady and powerful voice-over began.
