Fang Yuan Institute's backyard.
Near the mountain, Self-detonating Magnetic Monster and two Gear children were conducting their usual armed training.
At present, the Self-detonating Magnetic Monster's strength was at a nearly-top level. Its proficiency in Electric Series was the strongest, normally at almost-top level, and upon using blue lightning, it could even reach pseudo-top level. As for Steel Series, it was slightly inferior, with Psychic Type trailing behind.
The strength of the two Gear children was at the elite level.
When fused as an Armed Magnetic Monster, its strength could reach the peak of the top tier's first stage, becoming top tier in both Electric and Steel Series!
To further strengthen the Armed Magnetic Monster, Fang Yuan applied for another Magnet.
This top-tier Magnet, sourced from the Spirit World, could effectively enhance mental power.
The Self-detonating Magnetic Monster had already begun to absorb the power from the Magnet and convert it into its own strength.
For both the Self-detonating Magnetic Monster and the Positive and Negative Gear children, who had awakened Superpower, the strength of their mental power was very important as well.
Under the amplification of the Magnet, the Superpower level of the Self-detonating Magnetic Monster gradually approached that of its two main attributes.
With various top-tier resources invested by Fang Yuan, the strength of the Armed Magnetic Monster had nearly undergone a transformation, achieving top-tier domain in Electric, Steel, and Psychic Types. Its Railgun move had become a top-notch combination one-hit kill technique.
With such strength, it wouldn't be wrong to say the Armed Magnetic Monster was in the second stage of the top-tier domain. However, Fang Yuan felt something was still lacking. After some thought, he realized the issue lay with the Gear children.
"Evolution Miracle Stone, ah, Evolution Miracle Stone."
Watching the Armed Magnetic Monster manipulating rocks with Electromagnetic Force and Gravity to exercise its Coordination Ability on the mountain, Fang Yuan murmured to himself.
The Evolution Miracle Stone was not a top-tier resource, but it was very rare. Since Hua Nation did not produce it natively, Fang Yuan intended to apply for it through the Association, but it was currently out of stock.
Once carried, the Evolution Miracle Stone could enhance the Defense and Special Defense of Pokemon that still had the potential to evolve, somewhat converting the latent potential of evolution into physical strength.
An enhancement in physical strength meant that the Gear children could withstand higher intensities of shifting.
Under high-intensity shifting, the Armed Magnetic Monster could unleash greater strength, and its enhanced Charge ability could also allow it to firmly hold its ground in the second stage of the top-tier domain.
This was the initial method Fang Yuan thought of to strengthen the Gear children.
"Forget it, I'll just pick it up from that ore tycoon in a couple of days."
That stone magnate definitely has it…
After observing for a while, Fang Yuan walked over, holding a box in his hand that contained another type of top-tier resource that had just been delivered today.
"Self-detonating Magnetic Monster, you guys take a short break."
The cold exterior, the cool silver-gray body, the crackling blue sparks… Although not as handsome as Huge Gold Monster, Self-detonating Magnetic Monster now also had a strong presence.
As many gazes fell upon him, Fang Yuan picked up the box and said, "Another piece of top-tier resource."
"Bwoo~~~" "Magnemite~" "Magnemite~"
Another resource, and top-tier at that?!
The Self-detonating Magnetic Monster and the Positive and Negative Gear children were immediately moved to tears of gratitude.
Fang Yuan was too good to them; with this, weren't they hopeful for victory in the Fourth Fang Yuan Tournament?
To become the only partner combination to win twice!
However, when Fang Yuan opened the box, inside was a Tree Fruit.
A Star Fruit, the same one that helped Eevee enhance its "Soul" as well as the powers of its various attributes, allowing the partner Eevee to achieve nearly-top level proficiency in nine types—the Dream Tree Fruit.
This kind of Tree Fruit, the Hua Nation Association only had a few, very cherished, and now Fang Yuan had gotten another one.
"Here, the Star Fruit, Eevee is waiting to eat it, turn it into Energy Blocks for me," Fang Yuan said to the Exploding Magnet Monster.
The Exploding Magnet Monster, the Positive Charge Gear Child, and the Negative Charge Gear Child: "..."
"Magnemite..." "Mmm..." "Mmm..."
.....................
After the Exploding Magnet Monster turned the Star Fruit into Energy Blocks, Fang Yuan brought them to Eevee.
This time the Star Fruit was quite small and only produced two Energy Blocks.
On the sofa, four Eevees were lined up in a row, with Rotom on the far right, clearly these two guys were teaming up for a five-player game.
Seeing their focused expressions, Fang Yuan didn't have the heart to interrupt them...
Ten minutes later...
"Did you win or lose?" Fang Yuan asked.
"Bwoo." The Eevee on the far left paused for a moment and then glared angrily at the third Eevee from the left.
"Bwoo!!" That Eevee started to speak, but then stopped, vehemently defending itself by pointing at the next Eevee.
The fourth Eevee looked bewildered for a moment and then shifted the blame onto Rotom.
Phone Rotom: ~~(﹁﹁)~~~
In the end, after a series of blaming each other, the four Eevees sighed together. Although they were arguing, it was all Eevee itself acting the parts. Losing the game was ultimately due to a lack of coordination ability.
Being a noob is the original sin.
Fang Yuan rubbed his head and set down the Energy Blocks, saying, "Eat them up quickly..."
"Don't give any to your Substitute, consume them one by one yourself."
Eevee was very obedient, after all this concerned its own strengthening. While Eevee ate the Energy Blocks, Fang Yuan also turned to Rotom and said:
"Right, it's time to arrange the new research plan."
Inferno Shock Turbo Guards, Beauty God Perfume, Beauty Value Detection Device, Fossil Resuscitation Device... Rotom had researched a lot of important results these days.
Compared to other resources, Fang Yuan had applied to the relevant departments, hoping Rotom could also receive related awards, gain honors, and publish papers highlighting the indispensable nature of Phone Rotom, attributing more than half of the research achievements to Rotom.
The award money that Fang Yuan received was also given to Rotom for its discretionary use. Generally, whatever savings Rotom had, it would eventually use to buy resources for whichever Pokemon it favored at the moment.
The last time Monferno got many resources from Rotom for free.
A new research project...
Upon hearing Fang Yuan mention this, Rotom immediately perked up with excitement.
It was unclear whether Eevee had become rusty with technology from not touching a phone for a month or if playing four games simultaneously was too challenging, but Rotom felt that Eevee had become much worse at gaming. Indeed, continuing research seemed more interesting than being let down.
The new research project was similar to the Inferno Shock Turbo Guards initiated earlier; it intended to study a type of exclusive item.
Rather than an amplification item, it appeared more like a tactical item.
"Hehehe~~~" Mention of this made the Glutton lurking in Fang Yuan's shadow show its face, looking forward to it very much.
For the Glutton, Fang Yuan had applied for seventeen types of high-quality attribute materials containing energy from various types, mostly special ores. Fang Yuan planned to have Rotom create an "Attribute Wheel" exclusive item to further help Glutton perfect its Attribute Wheel Tactics.
Fang Yuan hoped that with this item, Glutton could freely switch and combine among the 18 types of attributes. In this way, the title of Tactical Master for Gengar would indeed be well-deserved.
