Chapter 127 Getting Drunk

Looking at the rookie investigator in front of him, who was not much younger than him but had an unusually enthusiastic expression, Lu An was a little confused.

Although he prides himself on his abilities and is somewhat popular among the investigators, Wataru is, in theory, the face of the investigators.

Du stood right in front of Long Ze, and he wasn't excited at all. Why was he so excited to see Lu An?

First Investigator Hirabe was well aware of this.

Although Yulongdu is one of the Four Heavenly Kings of Kanto and also the strongest fighter in the investigation, he is well-known throughout the continent.

However, A-du is, after all, the eldest son of the Dragon-Dragon Clan in the Johto region.

His success stems from his hard work and talent, but also from the Dragon Clan behind him.

Even though he chose to break out of the door due to some accidents back then, the identity of the Dragon Messenger was still firmly attached to him.

His achievements and strength will always bear the mark of his family.

Even if he becomes an investigator, no one will doubt that he will return to the Dragon Clan and become the most powerful patriarch of the generation.

At the same time, Wataru became one of the Four Heavenly Kings before joining the organization as an investigator, and upon joining, he became the highest-ranking Special Investigator in the organization.

For Watari, being an investigator is not his everything, but merely an option.

In people's minds, Wataru's identity is often that of one of the Four Heavenly Kings, Wataru, and only later that of the investigator Wataru.

But Lu An is different.

All the investigators knew that before Lu An joined the investigators' organization, he was just an unknown nobody who couldn't even afford to eat.

However, through his own hard work and perseverance, he gradually became a Special Investigator and one of the organization's most recognized and strongest fighters.

Compared to the renowned Yulongdu, his path to advancement as an ordinary person is clearer and more grounded; in other words, it's more relatable.

The rookie investigators can see in Lu An the possibility of achieving success for themselves.

This sense of immersion led the new investigators to generally have a higher level of favorability towards Lu An.

Although Lu An didn't understand the reason for Long Ze's excitement, it didn't prevent him from having a good impression of Long Ze, so he smiled and nodded:

"Hello Long Ze, we are not much different in age, so there is no need to call me Special Grade. We can just treat each other as equals."

"Yes, Chief Lu An! Understood, Chief Lu An!"

Looking at the slightly fanatical Long Ze, Lu An shook his head helplessly and shifted his gaze back to the two girls on the field who were still seemingly in a "cooldown" period:

"So can someone explain to me what they're doing?"

Although Lu An was a generation younger than Pingbu, he was still a true top-class student.

There are only a handful of Special Class Investigators within the organization, and they rarely stay at the organization's base for long. Opportunities to make a lasting impression on a Special Class Investigator are few and far between.

Therefore, Pingbu coughed lightly twice and took the initiative to speak:

"Bai Ling and Miss Na Zi probably just wanted to spar a bit because they were itching to show their skills."

"Because of a mistake in the previous game, Bai Ling's superior Sable Eye was affected by Alakazam's ability swap, and it is currently hiding in another dimension trying to retrieve its ability."

Lu An nodded to Pingbu, indicating that he understood.

Seeing that Lu An nodded and then fell silent, Long Ze felt a little itchy to chat with his idol, Lu An, since this was his first time meeting him.

So Long Ze squeezed next to Lu An:

"Lu Ante, the most important characteristic of Bai Ling's superior Soul-Snatching Eye has been taken by Alakazam, and Alakazam is about to take advantage of Soul-Snatching Eye's hiding in the alternate dimension to enhance itself. Soul-Snatching Eye should be out of luck now, right?"

On the field, Alakazam, just as Ryuzawa had predicted, was taking advantage of this rare opportunity to use "Meditation".

Lu An glanced at Long Ze, then stopped bothering with the issue of how he addressed him.

"For us investigators, a temporary setback is only temporary. Bai Ling, as a top-level investigator, has considerable strength among quasi-Heavenly Kings. She will definitely make good use of this opportunity to hide in the alternate dimension."

As soon as Lu An finished speaking, a slight disturbance occurred on the field.

Naz, who had been observing everything on the field with her arms crossed and a cool, aloof expression, spoke first:

"Alakazam, Shadow Ball."

"Hu Di!"

A Shadow Ball quietly appeared on Alakazam's spoon.

Unlike Luan's Umbreon's Shadow Ball, which is violent and destructive, Alakazam's Shadow Ball has an eerie elegance, as if it is not a Ghost-type energy attack, but a Psychic power.

The Shadow Orb wobbled as it headed toward the distorted space behind it, where a Hookeye had just appeared.

As soon as he emerged from the alternate dimension, he saw a shadow sphere appear in front of him. Soul Hook was not surprised. He unleashed the power of "Spiritual Strike" on the shadow sphere and smashed it with a single claw.

After destroying the Shadow Ball, Sableye didn't dodge the aftershocks it created, charging straight at Alakazam.

The spoon that had been obediently in Alakazam's hand suddenly became restless and lashed down hard at Alakazam's head.

"Spiritual Dance"!

Use the target Pokémon's possession to launch an attack.

However, for Alakazam, which almost always holds a bent spoon in its hand, it is impossible not to be wary of "Spirit Slash," a move specifically designed to counter it.

Therefore, Alakazam was prepared and threw the bent spoon away.

"Hu Di".

Thanks to its faster reaction speed and mental control far exceeding that of ordinary Pokémon, the Bend Spoon's attack did not cause any significant damage to Alakazam.

However, without the bent spoon, its strength was still significantly weakened, and this was the moment Bai Ling had been waiting for:

"Soul-stealing eyes, phosphorescence!"

"Ya-no!"

Although it suffered some minor setbacks in the early stages, thanks to the sudden attack of "Spirit Spell", Sableye successfully made Alakazam scramble for a while.

Then, streaks of eerie green flames swept towards the land, eventually inflicting a burn.

Bai Ling is unforgiving when she's in the right:

"Soul-stealing eyes, misfortunes never come singly!"

When the target Pokémon is afflicted with a status condition, "Misfortune Comes in Pairs" can be twice as powerful. Moreover, Alakazam is already weak to Ghost-type moves, so if it takes this hit, it can be out of the battle immediately.

Sabrina would certainly not allow the Soul-Stealing Eyes' attacks to succeed repeatedly:

Alakazam, Flash of Magic!

Sabrina's idea is simple: you want to use the type advantage/disadvantage relationship to defeat my Alakazam in one move?

Your idea is wonderful, but I won't let you succeed so easily. If you want to defeat my Hudi, then you'd better be prepared to perish together with him.

Sableye's body is even more fragile than Alakazam's; if it were hit by a Magic Dazzle, it would perish instantly.

Would you dare to trade one for one?

Faced with Naz's silent provocation, Bai Ling gave her answer almost without hesitation:

"Soul-stealing Eye, push it up! Misfortune never comes singly!"

Those watching from the sidelines—Lu An, Yu Longdu, Hirabe, and the assembled investigators—all had drastic changes in expression.

"not good!"
