Next, Hu Tao and Xiangling continued their exploration in a more cautious way.
"This time I met a group of Ghosts we could run away from. But next time I go into another Overlord's lair... there will definitely be a fierce and bloody fight!"
So, they obediently searched for some common and weak wild Pokémon in the wilderness, like Pidgey and Rattata, and directed their baby Pokémon to fight and gain experience.
Under the scorching sun, the two found a shadow between some large rocks to rest. They chatted happily while munching on snacks, but still gave some instructions from time to time so that the baby Pokémon could not slack off in finding the next target.
"You just recorded the Overlord's Pokédex data, right?"
"Nonsense! Of course I did."
"What about those Gastly and Haunter?"
"I scanned everything. But it's a pity that I didn't see any glowing ones (Shiny), otherwise I would have gone back and fought my way out to catch one!"
You are not blind; you can identify a Shiny Pokémon at a glance now.
The two of them exchanged information and looked through the Pokédex entries of the Ghost Pokémon in the cave one by one, discussing which one might have the best qualifications.
"It seems that Overlord Gengar is the most powerful, with a densely packed skill bar..."
"Fear! I can't even finish reading them!"
Hiroshi had previously revealed a secret on how to identify the potential of wild Pokémon: Whether they are strong or not depends on their Move Pool.
Because wild Pokémon do not have TMs (Technical Machines) and usually cannot find a master who can teach them skills, the skills shown in the Pokédex are basically all dependent on their own understanding and self-study!
"Shadow Ball, Shadow Claw, Dark Pulse..."
Xiangling and Hu Tao stared at the Overlord Gengar's data, especially the high-level skills that sounded awesome when they heard their names. They looked like they were drooling over them.
If I had a Gengar of this level and template... who would be enough for me to fight?
Xiangling thought to herself.
No, no, no... do you really think that this Overlord Gengar plus this Director can't challenge a half-human Adeptus?
Hu Tao was ready to make a move, which gave rise to some kind of ambition.
In addition, after reading the character introduction about Gengar, Hu Tao suddenly fell in love with it.
It always has a naughty smile on its lips, loves to play pranks, and is quirky.
Huh!
It is also a Ghost type, which is taboo for others, but she is not afraid as the Master of the Wangsheng Funeral Parlor.
Isn't this a Pokémon tailor-made for me, Hu Tao?
Well, if there is a Gengar... Dragon-type King or something, it's okay to wait!
Gengar... I declare you as my next target!
During the rest of the day, the Gible, Larvesta, and Scyther fought many battles with wild Pokémon and came back with scars all over.
Hu Tao and Xiangling took out Potion sprays and treated the baby Pokémon while still discussing the haunted cave with great interest.
"Hu Tao, have you marked and recorded this secret scene?"
"Nonsense! This kind of mark and coordinates can be sold for money! Anyway, I am not stupid enough to disclose it in the Group Chat!"
There was something that Hu Tao didn't say to Xiangling explicitly.
She wanted to subdue the Overlord Gengar herself.
However, let alone Gible, her own martial arts skills couldn't defeat Gengar now.
So she can only cover up the coordinates of this cave as much as possible to prevent others from stealing her prize!
Xiangling ate her home-made baked biscuits, occasionally breaking off a piece and feeding it to her Larvesta.
During the break, they habitually checked the Pokédex and looked at the Group Chat.
There was all kinds of chaotic news. Hongyi, who works as a Deputy Police Chief, took a picture of a scene in Liyue Harbor. Someone was caught high in the air by a Pidgeotto.
The scream was so brutal that it could be heard in half of Liyue Harbor.
Pidgeotto?
Isn't this Pidgey's first evolution form? Why was this guy brought back to Liyue Harbor and arrested so angrily by the bird?
Suddenly something came to mind. Hu Tao and Xiangling discussed it for a while.
They edited the video of the cave exploration just now, cutting out the shots that might reveal the coordinates, and then sent it to the Group Chat.
Xiangling: [Video Attachment: Cave Exploration.avi]
Hu Tao: Guess what we two sisters met? Please watch this video and be amazed!
Klee: ...It's haunted!! Scary!
Zhongli: In terms of universal rationality, it is not surprising that there are "filthy things" in the Ecological Zone, given the Yin energy concentrations.
Chongyun: Well, a family of professional exorcists came forward to say that the old evil spirit in the opening chapter is weird. In professional terms, it is generally called an Illusion created by resentment or spirits.
Xiangling: Hee hee! Chongyun, it's a pity you weren't there today. If you were here, with your Congenital Positivity (Pure Yang Body), just sitting there would make the whole cave quiet!
Xingqiu: Xiangling, stop it! Which pot is not being opened? Chongyun is practicing mantras and swordsmanship to overcome his condition. Being able to scare away the filthiness with his Pure Yang Body is not a worry, but what if it cannot be scared away? That would be embarrassing.
Rosaria: I have executed many evil spirits in the shadows of Mondstadt, and these are indeed all illusions... wait, that purple thing is real.
Beidou: Hey, Director Hu is indeed very brave. She passed through the filth without a single leaf touching her body. Are we now looking at a certain cave? Ah... It's actually the lair of an Overlord-level Pokémon?!
Ningguang: Ghost-type Pokémon... Are there other types of this kind? I might need some for... interrogation purposes.
Lisa: Inexplicably, I feel like... this Ghost-type Overlord is evil and handsome!
Keqing: Hu Tao, this is not within your business scope, is it? Why not capture it?
In the rocky area, Hu Tao rested on a picnic cloth, staring at the group chat interface with a frown.
Hu Tao: Keqing, our Yuheng is big-talking. If you are brave, go ahead! Anyway, this Director can't do it right now!
Beidou: I have organized an exploration and training team. The team members are Kazuha and Yoimiya. If there are still others who want to join, we will meet at the main entrance of the Ecological Zone in an hour.
Xingqiu: After watching the video of Hu Tao and Xiangling, my heart suddenly feels unsure, and I'm afraid of meeting huge things alone! Chongyun and I are on the road, so we will join Sister Beidou's team. Forming a team like this, more people are more powerful!
Klee: Woohoo... Today we are still studying Jumpy Dumptys in the Confinement Room! It's a sad day! Little Klee also wanted to go on an adventure with Brother Albedo, but was banned by Acting Grand Master Jean!
...
"Klee is still miserable."
After Hiroshi packaged the game file, he took time out to watch the Group Chat, wondering what they were talking about.
"However, Jean really shouldn't lock up little Klee right now."
"Klee's own fighting ability is not bad. As long as she doesn't touch anyone above the Overlord level in the Ecological Zone, her life will not be in danger."
For this matter, he privately chatted with Jean. Since Albedo has already led a team to take risks, it seems that he (Hiroshi) can only take care of Klee for a while to let her experience the new world.
With him as a "supervisor," Jean will be more relaxed.
"Anyway."
"Jean and Ningguang were also miserable."
With the arrival of the Ecological Zone, Teyvat has an unexplored mysterious area. What is more interesting than cultivating Pokémon while taking risks?
However, they are all entangled in official affairs and paperwork.
Clicking on the video uploaded by Hu Tao, Hiroshi was stunned.
This secret cave...
Was it found so quickly?
Yes, the deepest part of this cave is the place where the "Orb" was conceived, and there are also Aerodactyl sleeping in amber.
But this underground cave system is long, narrow, and deep. In that area, the underground tunnels stretch for more than ten kilometers.
It has many twists and turns.
The Ghost groups of Gastly, Haunter, and Gengar are just the Pokémon inhabiting the outermost layer of the cave.
"Okay, it's quite a struggle. If you can bypass the Overlord Gengar, you can continue walking two or three kilometers further..."
"There is a space like a small underground kingdom, and there is a group of Dragons living there!"
Hiroshi decided to pay attention to Hu Tao and find an opportunity to "unintentionally" leak this information to her.
Let's see how Director Hu commits suicide and fights wits and courage with the Overlord Gengar to get to the dragons.
Ha, weird spirits versus naughty ghosts.
Interesting and interesting!
Hiroshi watched the words "Packaging Complete" displayed on the computer screen. He transferred the test game package to his Pokédex, successfully installed the Pokémon Auto Chess game, and played it for a while to test stability.
He thought about it and found a few idle people in the Customer Group Chat. He decided to pass the game package over and let them be free beta testers.
...
Ding dong!
The Ecological Zone - Seaside Camp.
It's still the same beach.
The two tents stood in a deserted area for two full days.
Venti sat on the reef and looked at his Lapras, who was looking for various low-level Water-type Pokémon to train offshore. He had an "auntie smile" on his face.
Suddenly, a message from Hiroshi came from the Pokédex in his hand, as well as a game installation package.
"This is the game Hiroshi was talking about? What is it called... [Pokémon Auto Chess]?"
