The necromancer of the Pokémon world

Chapter 51 Evolution, Dual Sheaths Arrive

Lin Ye originally expected that these otherworldly gems without special energy could sell for a few million at best, but he didn't expect Daigo to give him a "metal mold" directly, and it was even of medium quality.

Don't be fooled by the fact that the "Cursed Symbol" that Zoroya is currently wearing is only of medium quality; they obtained it by sheer luck and by sheer chance.

It's important to know that a mid-quality item can cost at least tens of millions on the market, and sometimes you might not be able to buy it even if you pay a higher price.

In addition, he also gifted himself three "Steel Gems" simply because he liked the scabbard. This young master's "money power" is truly frightening.

After the transaction was completed, Lin Ye proposed to exchange contact information with Daigo, saying that this way he could contact Daigo immediately if he found anything good next time.

Lin Ye hadn't held out much hope, because the connections between top-tier families and powerful individuals like Daigo were invaluable.

Unexpectedly, Daigo, perhaps thinking that Lin Ye could still bring him surprises, or perhaps recognizing Lin Ye's potential, readily exchanged contact information.

However, just as the two were saying goodbye, Daigo suddenly received a telepathic message. His gaze then swept back and forth between Metagross and Lin Ye, finally settling entirely on the latter, looking quite interested.

Lin Ye's heart tightened when he saw this, thinking, "Oh no, could Daigo's hometown really be from the Chengdu area?"

However, Daigo's next words dispelled his doubts, but also brought a deeper shock.

"Mr. Lin, are you a superhuman?"

"What?"

"Don't worry, I didn't mean anything by it. Metagross just used its psychic powers to send me a message saying that it sensed a very strong spiritual energy from you, so I asked out of curiosity."

"I see. Psychic Pokémon can indeed communicate telepathically once they reach a certain level of power, let alone Steven's Metagross."

Facing a top-tier fighter like Steven in the Pokémon world, Lin Ye had no need to lie:

"To be honest, I once practiced a meditation method by chance. I practiced it a little bit on my own, which is why I have some spiritual power."

Unfortunately, I only possess the method of cultivating mental power, but lack actual offensive capabilities. Otherwise, when facing Skarmory, I wouldn't have had to distract several Pokémon to protect me.

Daigo stroked his chin: "Actually, I know quite a few trainers with special abilities, like the power of dragons and the power of Viridian. Some of them are even proficient in psychic abilities. If I could give you a hint, maybe..."

Lin Ye was overjoyed upon hearing this. He already possessed a certain level of mental strength due to his cultivation of necromancy, but unfortunately, he did not understand how to use superpowers in this world.

If he could learn it, with his level as a formal mage, he would be almost equivalent to the combat power of a "professional" psychic Pokémon.

Although it's not exactly a remarkable fighting force, it's nowhere near comparable to the legendary super-powered queen, Sabrina.

But if this situation were to occur again, they would have some ability to protect themselves, and wouldn't have to rely entirely on the Snow Fairy and the others for protection, thus wasting their mobility!

Daigo took a badge out of his pocket, handed it to Lin Ye, and said:

"This badge is my token, and there's no major power in the Hoenn region that doesn't recognize it."

If you have time, go to Green Ridge City. You can use this badge token to meet the two gym leaders, Konan and Maple.

They are the most famous psychics in the Hoenn region. I suppose they could teach you some techniques for using psychic powers, just for my sake.

"Thank you so much, Mr. Daigo!"

"It's alright. People like us, who are born different from ordinary people, are rare to begin with. Since we've encountered someone like that, we should naturally support them."

"We... people like us... could it be that you, Mr. Daigo, also possess special abilities?!"

Lin Ye was taken aback. The original work did not mention that Daigo had special abilities at all. Indeed, it is better to have no book than to believe everything in it!

"May I ask, Mr. Daigo, what special ability do you possess? Is it the power of dragon control, the power of Tokiwa, or perhaps the power of Aura...?"

Daigo smiled calmly upon hearing this and slowly spoke:

"Rich~~"

"Alright, alright~ So that's what you were waiting for. I can't compare to you at Versailles, I can only avoid your sharp edge for now."

…………

As Lin Ye watched Daigo ride away on Metagross, his heart was filled with excitement.

"What a powerful Metagross! But from now on, I'll make you all reach that level."

"Gurgle~~"

"Eee~~"

"Hehehe~~"

The three little ones immediately echoed Lin Ye, expressing their belief that their trainer could definitely do it. Only Sword Sheath remained silent, its eyes wide like copper bells, staring intently at the intermediate "Metal Mold" and the three "Steel Gems" in Lin Ye's hand.

"Brother Lin, let's put aside our grand pronouncements for now. Let's use these treasures first, or something might go wrong."

"No rush~, these treasures are all steel-attribute, only suitable for Brother Sword, no ghosts will compete with you for them."

After speaking, Lin Ye first handed the mid-grade "metal mold" to the sword sheath. The sheath, sensing the priceless treasure worth tens of millions, couldn't wait to roll it up with a ribbon and suck it in forcefully.

Instantly, a metallic sheen appeared on the "metal mold," and then the energy began to flow along the ribbon towards the sword.

Most "excellent" Pokémon don't even have the conditions to wear a basic item, and the energy contained in a mid-level item of the same type is like a wake-up call for the current Saber Sheath.

"Buzz~~"

The sword sheath shone with a brilliant metallic sheen, its aura surged, and it directly attacked that crucial bottleneck.

"Huh? Is this a breakthrough? I was planning to proceed gradually, but it seems I'll have to use it now."

Without hesitation, Lin Ye threw a mid-grade "Steel Gem" into the mouth of the single-edged sword sheath, which it swallowed whole without thinking.

After consuming another mid-level gem of its own type, the light on the scabbard that originally symbolized advancement suddenly increased tenfold, transforming into a dazzling light representing evolution.

Lin Ye was thrilled. This was the first time he had ever seen a Pokémon evolve, not to mention that this transformation was the most miraculous miracle in the world.

But at that moment, Lin Ye suddenly had a strange idea: if he could incorporate the other two "Steel Gems" into the sword sheath during its evolution, could he further expand its potential after evolution?

So, before the transformation was complete, he put the second and third gems into its mouth one after the other.

Sure enough, after the two gems were swallowed, the evolutionary light surrounding the scabbard actually became a little more intense.

He felt that investing in these two gems would be far more cost-effective and provide a greater boost than using them on the single sword sheath as usual!

The next instant, the shape of the single sword sheath changed in the light, transforming from a single sword into twins, splitting into two swords crossed in an X-shape, which were fixed together by a shield behind it.

This is the evolved form of the single-sword sheath—the double-sword sheath, which has completely stabilized its strength at the "professional level" through evolution.
