That evening.
Champion Mountain, Huaguang Area, within the Trainer Association.
Fang Yuan summarized the gains from Self-detonating Magnetic Monster's evolution.
In addition to a comprehensive boost in strength, in terms of moves, the Self-detonating Magnetic Monster had autonomously learned the move "Barrier" due to its evolution.
Fang Yuan's fervent hopes of learning Teleport and Swap Field still lacked any clues.
"Just Barrier, huh? Even Electric Terrain would have been nice," Fang Yuan felt disappointed.
Now, the strength of the Self-detonating Magnetic Monster should be able to crush the main Pokemon of most members of the Demon Capital University Team.
However, compared to Eevee, which had learned Future Sight and mastered Solar Energy, it still lacked some depth.
But, the gap in strength between the Self-detonating Magnetic Monster and Eevee was steadily closing, which was something to acknowledge.
Because of this, Eevee felt somewhat nervous but also not, because it was about to learn the ability to create illusions.
By then, its combat ability would be even stronger!
Ever since Ninetales came, Eevee had been learning from it, and now, it had already made some progress.
Especially today, it seemed to have reaped a rich harvest and immediately came to show off to Fang Yuan, and even wanted to use Fang Yuan as a test subject.
"No way!!"
"Absolutely not!!"
In the room, Fang Yuan threw a pillow over to warn Sun Eevee.
In Fang Yuan's eyes, Eevee was nothing more than an Illusion Technique beginner. Using the Self-detonating Magnetic Monster, Fierce Fire Monkey, Ghostss, and the others as subjects for Illusion Technique experiments was fine, completely OK.
Even if there were some mistakes, given the physique of a Pokemon, they could totally withstand it.
But it was different for Fang Yuan. He, a delicate human, could accept being deceived visually by an Illusion Master like Ninetales.
After all, Ninetales's Illusion Technique was already superb, and it wouldn't cause too much of an impact on Fang Yuan.
But what if Eevee, who had just learned the ability to create illusions, didn't control it well and affected his mental power? What if he turned into a teenage idiot?
Though it might not be that severe... but even if he just got mentally disordered and had a nightmare that scared him into incontinence at night, that was something Fang Yuan did not want to face.
"Don't worry, there won't be any problems~" Ninetales, peeling an orange on the sofa beside, said cheerily.
Since Eevee had already passed her test, that meant Eevee's Illusion Technique was already basic level and could be well controlled.
Meanwhile.
Sun Eevee was also nodding vigorously, Ninetales was right.
Most importantly, it was no fun hypnotizing the Self-detonating Magnetic Monster and the others, but if it could hypnotize Fang Yuan... just thinking about it was exciting.
"Err..."
Fang Yuan pondered... well, he couldn't be a wimp.
"Alright then, but you can't create any weird illusions, and definitely no extremely terrifying images, or else..."
Fang Yuan was now very worried that Eevee would show him some horror movie scenes, with blood oozing ghosts appearing in front of his eyes – who could endure that?
Sun Eevee nodded rapidly, its tail moving subtly with joy, its mysterious purple pupils looking at Fang Yuan.
Its creation of illusions mainly relied on the newly learned move "Illusionary Light," using this move to disrupt the mental power of other life forms.
For now, it had only learned the technique to disrupt mental power.
Creating an illusion that could deceive instruments or mirrors with twisted light was something it had not started learning yet.
Hum~
Perhaps because Sun Eevee's Illusion Technique was not yet mature, Fang Yuan distinctly felt a change in his spirit before falling into the Dreamland.
"Not skilled yet," Fang Yuan muttered to himself, looking around.
Is this... a vegetable market?
Although still immature, Eevee's illusions are quite realistic.
But what is the intention behind this illusion?
Soon, Fang Yuan heard the overwhelming cries of hawkers.
"Wotou here—one yuan for four—hee hee!!"
"Wotou here—one yuan for four—hee hee!!"
???
In a moment, the devilish voices invaded Fang Yuan's conscience, nearly brainwashing him and making him unable to help himself from joining in the hawking.
Damn! What on earth has Eevee been watching all this time?
Boom!
A few seconds later, the illusion collapsed, and Fang Yuan's vision was still somewhat fuzzy, his ears ringing as if the hawking cries had not yet dissipated.
...
Huff huff huff!!
After giving Eevee a good beating, Fang Yuan felt refreshed and clear-headed.
Though calling it a beating, he actually just fiercely rubbed Sun Eevee as if he were petting a cat, which made him feel much better.
However, Eevee obviously hadn't had enough fun yet.
But this time, Fang Yuan refused to be Eevee's test subject anymore.
Unless it's really good.
One minute later...
Fang Yuan once again saw an illusion created by Eevee, a scene Eevee seemed determined to show him, which instantly captivated him.
The scene showed a lake, the very lake they had paused to rest by during the day.
But the lake showcased by Eevee's illusion was somewhat different from the one Fang Yuan had seen...
"This Pokémon is..." Fang Yuan was visibly shaken when he saw the Pokémon that Eevee had crafted using illusions.
In the lake, the legendary Pokémon, Emuritto!
Emuritto, revered as the "god of emotions," is a special Pokémon created by Arceus after Dialga, Palkia, and Giratina were created.
Uxie, Emuritto, and Azelf, representing knowledge, emotion, and will, reside in lakes and are thus known as the Lake Gods.
Eevee... saw a legendary Pokémon??
"Why didn't you tell me sooner..." Fang Yuan looked at Eevee with tears in his eyes, thinking it had made a serious mistake. This leg was thicker than that of Gengar and Ninetales Rock.
"??" Eevee looked innocent. It was you who rushed me to leave in haste, and besides, I don't know the other party...
...
The next day.
At the Champion Mountain, in the office of the President of the Hua Nation Trainer Association.
Vice President Xiang Enkun of the Association, with a worried expression, had just received urgent news.
Different spies from the Hua Nation Trainer Association had sent back important secrets from the Trainer Associations of two other nations.
Within the last two days, trainers in different lakes within Champion Mountain had seen a suspected phantom of the legendary Pokémon Emuritto.
Moreover, Emuritto seemed to have communicated unilaterally with these trainers.
The information about Emuritto, the legendary Pokémon in the lake, is recorded on a tablet in the southern part of Champion Mountain. Judging by the clues on the tablet, this Pokémon is undoubtedly very rare and thought to only exist in legends...
A Pokémon of such legends, appearing before humans?
"A trainer chosen by a legendary Pokémon, huh... But why haven't Hua Nation's trainers seen it?" Xiang Enkun was annoyed by this, because according to the information received, there were already at least two nations' trainers who had seen Emuritto, and their respective Trainer Associations had discreetly sent people into Champion Mountain to cooperate with them in searching for Emuritto.
But so far, no trainers from Hua Nation had seen Emuritto, nor had any news emerged, leaving them without any leads, even if the Hua Nation Trainer Association wanted to join the search. Unless, that is, their spies could gather more intelligence from the outside world soon.
