This trainer has no moral principles

Reminded by the receptionist, You Zhi immediately remembered that there was indeed such a setting in the Pokémon game. The natural park would hold a bug catching competition every Tuesday, Thursday, and Saturday. Participants were required to catch a bug-attribute Pokémon with the highest total score.

Before the competition begins, each participant will receive 20 Park Balls. During the competition, only the first Pokémon in the group can be used. Any Pokémon caught in the Bug Catching Competition will be recorded in the Pokédex, but only one can be retained for selection. The Pokémon that participates in the selection will belong to the participant after the competition, and the remaining Pokémon will be automatically released.

Youzhi could no longer remember the specific details, but only recalled two things: he could catch a Scyther in the insect catching competition, and the champion reward was a sunstone.

Scyther is undoubtedly a powerful Pokémon, but Youzhi still has no intention of participating in the insect catching competition. After all, in his impression, there are not many powerful monsters in the insect clan in Yu-Gi-Oh.

And according to his luck since crossing over, even if he met an elf with outstanding talent in the insect catching competition, nine times out of ten it would be a girl.

If it was an insect demon, it would be fine, the appearance would be barely acceptable, but what if you encounter the insect queen?

Rather than worrying about it later, it’s better not to touch it in the first place.

If you think about it carefully, it seems that the Insect Queen can also be used as a mount, which is even more confusing.

Forcibly suppressing the urge to tame a mount, You Zhi took out two metal rods, which were the spiritual power fluctuation detectors that Songye had given him, and then began to explore around the park.

This was not a whim, but he remembered that there was a hidden prop in the nature park, which seemed to be a skill learning machine.

Since there are elves in this world that correspond to the game settings, it seems reasonable to have a hidden prop that corresponds to the game settings.

Since there was no rush to travel, he decided to go to the nature park and try his luck.

Finally, he found it.

"The skill stone 'Digging' is inconspicuously hidden in the soil of the flower bed. If I hadn't known there were hidden items here, I wouldn't have been able to find it."

You Zhi was delighted. The practical value of digging holes had been mentioned before. The key was that this technique was basically difficult for the elves to master through self-cultivation.

Except for ground-type Pokémon, other Pokémon don't like to burrow underground. If they are not careful, they may be buried alive, so they have a natural resistance to it.

You Zhi did not rush to choose a training object, but put the skill stone into his backpack and kept it safe. Then he rode his bicycle out of the nature park and continued to Manjin City.

Manjin City is the largest city in the Chengdu area. In the game, there are special buildings such as bicycle shops, department stores, game cities, radio stations, and high-speed rail stations. In reality, it is even more prosperous. At a glance, there are high-rise buildings everywhere, lined up one after another, showing the style of a metropolis.

You Zhi did not try to find out whether the special buildings in the game really existed. He rode his bike directly to the Manjin Gym and made an appointment for a challenge. He also bought a ticket to watch the game, ready to ask the old audience for information.

"Gym Master Akane is good at using Normal-type Pokémon. If you are a new trainer, I don't recommend you challenge this gym."

"What?"

"Because gym leaders are not very polite to trainers and rarely give them a break, and because Gold Man City is populated by a large population and trainers, gym leader Akane gradually earned the nickname 'Rookie Killer,' and her ace Pokémon even got the prefix 'The Most Evil and Vicious.'"

You Zhi was shocked after hearing this. He couldn't think of which Pokémon met the criteria for the normal type and the most ferocious and evil type for a moment.

"Excuse me, which is Gym Leader Akane's ace Pokémon?"

"Look for yourself, Akane will be summoned soon."

As soon as he finished speaking, an extremely huge figure appeared from the playing field, blocking out the sky and making the empty field extremely crowded.

You Zhi took a closer look and found that it was... a piece of tofu?

Chapter 90: Picking up leaks is the real purpose of plug-ins

After watching the gym duel, You Zhi had to admit that the description of "the most vicious and evil" was appropriate.

It was clearly just a tofu-like elf that looked cute on the outside, but he didn't expect it to be so brutal in battle, which made him shudder.

"The psychic's reminder was correct. Manjin City is indeed not suitable for newcomers to challenge."

Fortunately, You Zhi is no longer a newcomer, and the opponent's performance only makes him feel a little tricky, not difficult to deal with.

The gym challenge is scheduled for four days later. If it were in other cities, Youzhi would probably use the three days in between to clear out wild Pokémon and increase the Pokémon level as much as possible. However, Manjin City, as the largest city in the Johto area, has many plot points in the game and is worth spending time exploring.

Among them, there are three places to obtain light elves.

"The first one was at the department store, where someone wanted to exchange arm wrestles."

Youzhi could no longer remember which floor of the department store it was, and even if he did, it would be useless. Living people are not NPCs. They will not stay in one place for a long time, doing nothing, and just waiting for players to talk to them.

If the location is a residence, it would be fine. As long as you visit after get off work, you would have a chance to meet him. But if the location is changed to a public place, even if the other party is an employee of a department store, it is impossible for him to stay there all the time.

Youzhi had already prepared himself to return empty-handed, and just considered this trip as a visit to the department store, after all, there were also a lot of elf-related props sold there.

However, when he actually visited the department store, he found that the fifth floor was a place dedicated to providing trainers with a place to exchange Pokémons, which was an enhanced version of the "park blind date corner". Trainers only needed to pay a certain fee to entrust the Pokémon cards they wanted to exchange to the mall, and the mall would act as an intermediary to help find trainers willing to exchange. Of course, direct sales were also possible.

You Zhi picked for a while and quickly found the Pokémon corresponding to "Arm Strength", because this was the only one with strong talent in the Fighting-type Pokémon, while the others either had mediocre talent or did not belong to the Fighting-type.

[Monk Warrior (3 Star) Land]

[Pedigree: Fighting]

【Level: 15】

【Talent: Strong】

[Attack power: 1300 (1300)]

【Defense Strength: 1000 (1000)】

[Rock-type, Effect: When this card battles, the controller receives 0 battle damage.]

To be honest, You Zhi himself really wanted to balance the male-female ratio in the team, especially to break the fate of only being able to subdue female elves since he traveled through time, but he really couldn't think of a reason to obtain this elf.

There was no shortage of fighting elves in his team, but the monk warrior could not be used as a mount and its talent was not high enough to attract him, so he had no choice but to give up.

You Zhi took a look at the other elves, but most of them had weak and moderate talents, including the monk warrior. There were only three with strong talents, and the other two were the "Skilled Black Magician" of the psychic system and the "Sea Dragon God" of the water system.

Not to mention that his team also has psychic and water-type Pokémon, these two just don't meet the standards in terms of appearance. It's not that Youzhi only likes handsome and cool types, but these two really don't have any personality at all.

All I can say is that if he really met an elf with excellent talents or outstanding looks, he would have been replaced by someone else long ago, and it would not be his turn to take advantage of the situation.

"The second one is Zhenghui's Eevee, let's skip this one for now."

Eevee is undoubtedly a famous and powerful Pokémon in Pokémon, but just like the case of Onix, Youzhi has no idea where Zhenghui lives. There are only a few rooms on a town map in the game, and you can find him by searching one by one. But in reality, it is extremely difficult to accurately find a household in a bustling city.

What's more, Youzhi couldn't remember the specific plot, but he at least remembered that Zhenghui was not going to exchange Pokémon with others, but gave Eevee to the player. So in reality, why would others give him a precious Pokémon?

"Let's ask Songye for divination later. The next step is the third one."

You Zhi looked up and saw a colorful and shining plaque hanging on the door of the spacious shop with the words "Game City" written on it. Just by standing at the door of the shop, he could hear the noisy sound of keystrokes and shouting coming from inside.

The so-called game city is actually an entertainment casino with slot machines, billiards and other entertainment facilities. People can spend money to buy game tokens and then use the tokens to redeem prizes, including gold, skill stones and elves.

Youzhi had no interest in playing gambling games, so he went straight to the prize counter and asked which elves he could redeem.

The waiter had seen many tourists coming for the elves, so he immediately introduced them enthusiastically. You Zhi pretended to listen while using the plug-in to identify them.

I have to say that the average quality of the elves here is two levels higher than that of the elves in the department store. At a glance, they basically all have strong talents. Of course, the prices are also very touching.

"This is our store's most valuable treasure, the Dark Knight King Gaia. As a seven-star elf, his racial attack power of 2300 isn't high, but he possesses the trait of becoming stronger when facing stronger opponents. When battling an elf with higher attack power, his attack power increases by 700 points. Besides that, he also has a large number of accompanying spell cards, allowing him to unleash his power beyond its limits. Champion Crimson even has a elf from the same series."

You Zhi took a look at the other person's appearance. Wow, it completely hit his liking. Handsome and powerful, and he was also a dragoon. He could solve the problem of the mount by squeezing in.

Taking another look at the talent, it is at the fierce level, which is enough. In addition, its own level is only 25, so it is possible to continue to improve after future evolution.

Finally, he took a look at the price, and then said goodbye and left!

This elf requires 150 million tokens to redeem, and 1 token is equal to 10 yuan. In other words, without considering gambling to earn game coins, it will cost a full 1500 million yuan to buy it directly.

No wonder the Dragonite trainer said that ordinary rich people would only be willing to buy one Pokémon for their children. After all, even most of the wealthy people with a net worth of hundreds of millions cannot come up with 1500 million in cash.

You Zhi thought for a moment and asked, "If I buy it directly, can I get a discount?"

The waiter, clearly not having encountered this kind of question before, smiled and said, "Sorry, we're a company focused on gaming and entertainment, not a Pokémon mall. These Pokémon are prizes to be redeemed and cannot be sold to the public, let alone discounted. Otherwise, we'll receive complaints from tourists."

Then, she lowered her voice and said, "I personally don't recommend buying them directly. In fact, the prices of all the prizes are higher than the market average, so it's not worth it. Please don't tell anyone about this."

He acted mysterious, as if he had revealed something very important, but in fact it was something everyone knew.

The purpose of setting up prize redemption in the game city is to attract customers rather than to sell them for profit. If they are sold at market prices, it is equivalent to stealing the business of the elf mall. The final result will inevitably be that the rare elves will be bought by others, and the remaining ones will be less popular elves. At that time, they will have to find ways to find rare elves again, which is not worth the loss for the boss.

In short, the prizes in the game city are like carrots dangling in front of the donkey's eyes. Their purpose is to lure the donkey to run forward, rather than actually feeding it.

You Zhi thought about the numbers on his bank card and decisively started from the end of the prize list. Then he pointed at the second-to-last Pokémon and asked, "This two-star Pokémon has a high stat, so why is the exchange price so low, only 5 tokens?"

The waiter took a look and explained, "On the one hand, her trait is that she randomly creates three spell cards and puts them on cooldown. It's hard to say whether it's good or bad, and it's a bit unclear. On the other hand, her talent isn't very high. Of course, the Pokémon we use as prizes are above average at best. And don't be fooled by her appearance; she's actually a genuine dragon-type Pokémon with a promising future."

She had to give reasonable reasons and say nice things at the same time, just like a salesperson trying to sell an unpopular product to customers.

"That's right..."

You Zhi nodded slightly, seemingly accepting the other party's explanation, but in fact his attention was entirely on the instructions for plug-in identification.

[Half-Dragon Maid·Washing Dragon Lady (2 Stars) Water]

[Pedigree: Dragon]

【Level: 10】

【Talent: Fierce】

[Attack power: 500 (500)]

【Defense Strength: 1600 (1600)】

Dragon, Effect: ①: This card can only be activated if it is successfully Normal Summoned or Special Summoned. Send 3 cards from the top of your deck to the Graveyard. ②: You can only activate at the start of your or your opponent's Battle Phase. Return this card to the owner's hand, and Special Summon 1 Level 7 "Half-Dragon Maid" monster from your hand or Graveyard.

It is not difficult to see from the effect description that the first characteristic of this elf is graveyard. It may be of some use in a card duel, but it is definitely a negative characteristic in an elf duel.

As for why the waiter did not introduce the second characteristic, it is not difficult to understand. Judging from the effect description, Youzhi speculated that it should be a characteristic similar to that of Gladiator Beast, which requires the elf to obtain an evolved form before it can take effect.

Others who have neither plug-ins nor elf encyclopedias will inevitably mistakenly believe that "Washer Dragon Lady" only has one characteristic.

As for the waiter's description of the Washing Dragon Girl's low talent, You Zhi thought about it and felt that there was only one reason - this elf itself was not very smart.

Using the intelligence of an elf to measure talent is actually an inaccurate method of judgment.

When You Zhi first traveled to this world, he read a statement in a book that the elves in the present world are actually projections of the original bodies in the elf world, and the more talented the elves are, the higher the degree of overlap with the original elves.

According to this theory, most elves are indeed more talented and intelligent because they have acquired the wisdom of their original body. However, if the elves themselves are not very smart, then this method will fail.

"I want to buy 50,000 tokens to redeem this elf. Should I do it directly, or go through an extra step?"

"Hey, are you sure, sir?"

"Of course, I can swipe the card now."

Although the waiter was a little surprised, he didn't ask any more questions and nodded. "Okay, I'll help you with it. According to regulations, we can't sell the elves to you directly. You must exchange them for tokens first. But we will complete this step for you, so you can just swipe your card."

If the seller is an informal small vendor, Youzhi may use some tricks, such as pretending to buy another more expensive item, while finding fault with it, in the name of making up the price difference, so that the merchant will give him the item he really wants as a gift.

But the game city is a formal large-scale entertainment enterprise, so there is no need to do this. If the store temporarily raises the price because someone shows unusual interest in its products, who will be willing to come here to play in the future? The loss of reputation is far more than that little money can make up for.

Sure enough, the subsequent development was just as Youzhi had expected. After listening to the waiter's report, the lobby manager of the game city simply confirmed it with him again and did not intervene again. He did not delay time while ordering people to speed up the testing of the elves' talents.

After all, even if this elf is a rare gem with extraordinary abilities, the loss is suffered by the boss. What does it have to do with them, the employees?

As long as every step is carried out according to the regulations, any problems that arise in the end cannot be blamed on them.

"Please take care of your Spirit Card and brand it promptly to prevent it from being stolen."

In less than two minutes, You Zhi got the elf card, input the spiritual power casually, left the mark, and left the game city with the waiter's farewell.

He glanced back at the still bustling shop and said with emotion, "This should be considered a lucky find. It doesn't seem to have anything to do with the game settings... Perhaps this is the correct way to use my cheat."

If you think about it carefully, there is no instrument in the world that can accurately detect the talent of a Pokémon. Only his plug-in can "see Ding Zhen at a glance". The most suitable career for him is not a trainer, but a treasure appraiser.

By utilizing this ability, he could easily pick up bargains everywhere, search for talented wild elves in the wild, and then open a boutique shop. Within a year, he could become a world-renowned elf merchant.

Every elf that passes through his hands will be sought after by the whole society, those who are rich and powerful will try their best to please him, and even the elf master has to look at his face and dare not offend him easily.

This is a path that is bound to lead to success, and it is a smooth road with almost no obstacles. No one else can compete with him at all.

only……

"It's so boring. This kind of dull life is not what I want."

You Zhi immediately put this thought behind his mind without any lingering feelings.

He was about to return to his hotel room to have his first conversation with the new elf when suddenly, a giant green dragon flapped its wings and descended from the sky, blocking his way with scattered air currents.

"No way, the owner of the game city is so rude? At least wait until I'm far away before taking action."

Feeling that the other party had ill intentions, You Zhi subconsciously thought that he had made a wrong judgment and had encountered an unruly rogue businessman.

As expected, a yellow-haired young man jumped off the green dragon's back, landed on his knees with a thud, and said arrogantly, "Finally I found you, the emotional liar who deceived my sister!"
