The necromancer of the Pokémon world

Chapter 124 The Difference in the Grade of Evolution Stones

The attack began, and the Misdreavus gained the upper hand by using the stealth ability unique to Ghost Pokémon.

But this is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity, and their location was revealed the moment they made their move.

In fact, this surprise attack was brilliant, catching the crow leaders completely off guard.

Just as the weakest crow leaders were about to take flight, they were struck by several attacks simultaneously, screaming as they fell from the branches, their bodies emitting blue smoke. The remaining "professional" crow leaders were also thrown into panic.

However, the chaos lasted for less than two minutes, as the largest crow leader regained his composure and issued a hoarse command.

All the crow leaders simultaneously flapped their wings and took to the air, quickly forming a formation and circling in the air, their heads facing the dream monsters on the outer edge.

Then, they opened their beaks, which glowed with a dark light as dark energy rapidly gathered, and their sharp eyes aimed at the despicable attackers around them.

"Bang!"

Ten jet-black beams of light shot out separately, then swept across the rock walls and forest floor like batons, creating scars from the corrosive effects of malevolent energy.

The effectiveness of Dark-type energy against Ghost-type attacks was fully demonstrated at this moment. The few Misdreavus at the forefront were hit squarely and sent flying backwards, crashing into the cliff face.

They only had time to let out a momentary scream before falling silent. The remaining Dream Demons also suffered heavy casualties under the continuous onslaught of the Crow Leader's "Dark Pulse" attacks.

Just as the crow leaders were enjoying the thrill of whack-a-mole, a Dream Demon silently appeared in the hole above their heads.

This dream demon has the highest energy level among its kind, with an exceptionally deep "professional-grade" energy fluctuation. Lin Ye even suspected that it was probably an old ghost that had been cultivating for hundreds of years.

A dream demon, seemingly an ancient ghost, emerged from the shadows, and the orb on its body began to shimmer with a strange light.

Soon, a dazzling pink light shone down indiscriminately in all directions.

"Magic Flash!" is a fairy-attribute area-of-effect attack that can illuminate all opponents around it, and its power is quite considerable.

The ten crow leaders were hit at the same time, their evil-attribute bodies howling in agony under the life-energy-filled fairy-type light.

In the end, it was the "professional" peak-level crow leader who was the first to pull through.

It roared, and its black wings suddenly glowed bright red, emitting a scorching heat that distorted and blurred the surrounding air.

"Hot air!"

Unexpectedly, this Murkrow also knows this powerful fire-type move that deals damage over a wide area!

Instantly, the scorching fire winds, containing intense heat, spread in all directions, dispelling "Magic Flash" and affecting all the remaining Dream Demons, including the strongest one.

That was all that was left; the enraged leader of the crows began to settle scores with these despicable and weak intruders.

Even though the surviving dream demons hid in the shadows, they were all dragged out and brutally punished by the vengeful crow leaders, a truly pitiful sight.

Just as the crow leaders were enjoying the hunt after their victory, several ghostly figures took the opportunity to approach the battlefield, manifesting Pokémon such as Twin Blade Scabbard and Froslass.

Then, they acted simultaneously.

Azure Flame Blade Demon and Twin Sword Sheaths slashed into the center of the battlefield from the left and right, respectively. The dark blue blade light and the pitch-black sword light intertwined to form a net, and they all felled the Crow Leaders who were engrossed in crushing the weak.

Gastly grinned, and a ball of dark purple, highly toxic energy condensed in front of it, ready to be thrown at the nearest crow leader at any moment.

The leader of the crows reacted immediately, spreading its wings and taking off to take up a favorable position, but was forced back by an arrow fired by the early-shooting tree owl.

When they saw the Crow Leader suffer an unexpected disaster, the remaining Dream Demons quickly took the opportunity to escape.

But as soon as they moved, they were stopped by the Snow Fairy, who used "Frozen Wind" to freeze their retreat, leaving the group of Dream Demons rooted to the spot, afraid to move.

"What's wrong, beautiful? Aren't our opponents all Crow Leaders? Why won't you let us leave?"

"You'll all be useful to my trainers soon enough!"

Immediately afterwards, Mimikyu and Zoroark took turns attacking, leaving the Raven Leaders, who had already been through a great battle, completely unable to withstand the onslaught and easily securing victory.

"Phew~, I really didn't expect that. I thought I would have to help, but these dream monsters interfered, which saved me the trouble of taking action." Nagi slowly walked over after the battle ended.

After all, dealing with a group of exhausted crow leaders didn't really require her, as a "Gym Leader" level trainer, to take action.

"Brother Jian, go and sense it; you should have a special connection to the 'Dark Stone.'"

"Just you wait and see, Brother Lin!"

With his twin sword sheaths, he leaped into the air, circling the ancient tree where the crow's head lived, carefully sensing the subtle energy fluctuations within it.

After circling around for a while, my eyes finally lit up and I stopped at a tree trunk.

"It seems it has been found."

Sure enough, as the twin sword sheaths swung their swords fiercely, the bark of the tree cracked open, and a rich and pure dark energy surged out of the tree hole, as if opening a cellar that had been sealed for thousands of years.

In an instant, all the dream demons present were attracted, and even those who were seriously injured could not resist the desire deep in their blood.

If it weren't for Froslass and other Pokémon still forcefully suppressing them, these Misdreavus would probably have immediately fled in a desperate attempt to escape.

In fact, it wasn't just them; the moment the twin sword sheaths broke through the tree hole, they themselves were strongly attracted, and a voice within their bodies urged them to immediately enter and touch the source of that mysterious energy.

But just as the dual sword sheaths were drawn to the energy of the "Dark Stone," Lin Ye intervened in time with the Undead Pact, restoring their rationality and preventing them from rushing in immediately.

The reason was simple: Lin Ye didn't know the grade of this batch of "Dark Stones" yet, and he was afraid that the grade of the "Dark Stones" that would cause the dual sword sheaths to evolve was not high enough, thus affecting their potential.

Evolution stones are divided into three grades: beginner, intermediate, and advanced. Their prices are similar to those of items like "Curse Symbols," with approximate reference prices of one million, ten million, and one hundred million respectively.

Unlike items that can be replaced, evolution stones can only be used once, with no chance to turn back.

Therefore, in Lin Ye's plan, at least the dual sword sheaths should be evolved using the intermediate "Dark Stone".

Of course, having money isn't enough to get a mid-level evolution stone, let alone a high-level one, which is basically only available among top-tier families.

Moreover, only the most core members have the opportunity to use it, and the so-called price is only for reference.
