"Hoo-hoo~" After digesting the last of its food, Ghostss turned once again to Fang Yuan, indicating it wanted to eat more.
This rate of digestion really made Fang Yuan's eyelids twitch.
You're not the reincarnation of Little Ka Bi, are you?
Meanwhile, How had been observing for quite some time.
It was actually very surprised by the food Fang Yuan had brought out.
And furthermore... it seemed that Glutton really liked it.
Could it be that Fang Yuan is indeed the destined Trainer for Ghostss?
"Glutton, are you willing to go with him and let him be your Trainer?"
How's voice slowly spread out, causing Glutton's body to stiffen as it showed a troubled expression.
It knew very well that by following a human Trainer, it would no longer be able to eat Life Energy, which would be a fatal blow to Glutton.
Glutton looked at the Energy Block Box in Fang Yuan's hands, compared the Energy Blocks with Life Energy, then showed a pained expression.
It couldn't make up its mind!
Mere Energy Blocks weren't enough to sway it.
Desperately, Ghostss looked towards Fang Yuan.
"..." Fang Yuan.
The behavior of Ghostss left Fang Yuan completely speechless. Just a moment ago, while it was eating the Energy Blocks, Ghostss looked like a child crying from craving, yet now it started hesitating again?
By now, Fang Yuan finally understood why it was so hard for other Trainers to take this Ghostss. Even Energy Blocks couldn't make it absolutely loyal; perhaps only top-level Breeders who could gather various Dream-level Ingredients and prepare a specially tailored meal for this unique Ghostss would satisfy it.
"Oh?" At the same time, How chuckled softly.
Having reached this point, How had no intention of further testing Fang Yuan. As long as Ghostss was willing to go with Fang Yuan, How would nod in agreement.
However, Glutton was clearly not entirely charmed yet. What would Fang Yuan do now?
Looking at the frantic Ghostss, Fang Yuan was also conflicted.
The mind of this Ghostss was too easy to read.
Seeing this... Fang Yuan shook his head helplessly and said, "There's nothing I can do then... If you're unwilling, let's just forget it."
Ghostss: "???"
...
Fang Yuan's response left both How and Ninetail Beauty completely baffled, especially Ghostss, which was utterly stunned.
In its heart, Ghostss was really cursing, can't you just persist a little longer... and try to find a win-win solution?
Even though I want to eat Life Energy, I also can't bear to part with the Energy Blocks!
Soon after, Ninetail Beauty wore a teasing smile, her eyes as clear as a spring, offering help, "I really like this Energy Block. May I ask... do you have a recipe book for it?"
Fang Yuan shook his head and apologized:
"This is one of my trade secrets for now, and currently only I know how to make it."
Ghostss: "..."
"Ha-scare~!!" Ghostss once again circled Fang Yuan in heart-wrenching protest, which was just too much.
"By the way, you mentioned earlier that these two kinds of Energy Blocks are just the flavors that your Pokemon likes, right?" Ninetail Beauty asked again softly.
"Yes, it's mainly because I wasn't fully prepared this time. If I have enough ingredients, I can customize special Energy Blocks to suit the taste of any Pokemon, and they'll be even more delicious."
Fang Yuan smiled and added, "But it might take a bit longer to prepare. If you like, once I'm done, I can bring you some as gifts."
Suddenly, the Ghostss stopped spinning abruptly.
Custom-made gourmet food blocks that suited one's taste?
At the mention of that, Ghostss uncontrollably drooled.
The drool of Ghostss resembled flames, which fell to the ground and could not be extinguished for a long time...
Its eyes, filled with anticipation, looked toward Fang Yuan. If it had been anyone else who said those words, Ghostss would have definitely thrown a Ghost Fire their way, but after tasting the Energy Blocks, it had an inexplicable trust in Fang Yuan's cooking skills.
The desire for unknown delicacies made Ghostss give up the struggle.
"Woohoo~~~" Ghostss then threatened, declaring that if the custom-made Energy Blocks weren't tastier than Life Energy, it would definitely run away!
Watching the performance of Fang Yuan, Ghostss, and Nine Tails, How and the Solar Spirit fell silent together.
"You guys..." How, at a loss for words, glanced at Nine Tails and didn't understand why she was meddling unnecessarily, really not afraid of stirring up trouble.
The Solar Spirit was also stupefied. Being Fang Yuan's assistant was something he should have done, right? Why had he been preempted...
...
Surrounded by pitch darkness, Fang Yuan's heart was not at peace.
Did it really work?
Had it actually worked?
The Heterochromatic Gengar, whom many Trainers had failed to take away, was now truly following him.
Looking at the Ghostss hovering around him, Fang Yuan took a deep breath and felt a bit dazed.
Meanwhile, the Solar Spirit continued to snooze, what an awful night. With Ghostss joining the team, the coming days were probably going to be even less peaceful.
And the Heterochromatic Gengar was happily eating the remaining Energy Blocks, while How just watched, still very silent, wondering what was on its mind.
The next second, with a wave of its wooden staff, it was as if a dark hole appeared in front of it, and countless things fell out of the hole with a whoosh.
The loud noises immediately drew the attention of Fang Yuan, the Solar Spirit, and Ghostss.
The Ninetail Beauty saw the items How had thrown out and showed a strange expression.
These items, shouldn't they be the most precious things in the Secret Location?
"You can pick one item to take with you. Glutton has a pretty big appetite; don't let it go hungry," How said indifferently.
Fang Yuan was torn between laughter and tears. Pokemon really had a different way of thinking from humans. What kind of quirky emotion was this?
However, Gengar's ability made Fang Yuan envious once again.
Gengar had the ability to fully hide within the shadow of any object, making it extremely good at invisibility and the most suitable Pokemon to ensure a Trainer's safety. Moreover, Gengar could carry a large number of items within its body. Its body was like a dark hole; items would disappear once stored inside it, yet it could take them out anytime. This ability turned Gengar into something like a "storage equipment," which was incredibly convenient.
As for what Gengar had thrown out...
Fang Yuan looked at the items How had discarded, and his expression froze after a casual glance.
There were several Sun Stones and Moon Stones... Judging by their color and quality, they were definitely top-tier, the core of an Evolution Stone Vein, the treasures among treasures.
Besides that, there were many other items that Fang Yuan couldn't name, but which looked extraordinary, emitting energy fluctuations that dazzled onlookers.
"This is..."
Among them, what attracted Fang Yuan the most, causing his heart to beat wildly, was only one thing, which was a stone with alternating red and black stripes enveloped by a white-gray edge.
"Gulp."
Fang Yuan swallowed.
No way...
Could this be... Gengar's Mega Evolution Stone? Fang Yuan rubbed his eyes vigorously, finding it unbelievable, yet convinced he wasn't mistaken.
