Pokémon: My Magical Dream

Chapter 157 Black Energy

The entrance of the cave was sealed and it became dark inside. Ying Sheng could only see everything around him with the help of the flash of Sol Eevee.

After walking about twenty meters downwards, Ying Sheng was stopped by Boskodora, who reminded him that there was a giant hole below. Ying Sheng held Eevee and used his superpowers to follow Boskodora down into the hole.

The moment he looked up, he was shocked. It was not like the darkness he saw above the cave. Instead, there were some dots of purple light flowing in the cave, and in the distance, there was still darkness with no end in sight.

At the top of the cave, Ying Sheng could only see the holes made by Boskodora and Scorpio King. As for whether there were holes on the top of the caves in other locations, he could not see.

After checking that there was no danger in the surrounding caves, Ying Sheng looked at what was inside the cave. Apart from a glowing black ore, a black soil, and black stone pillars supporting the cave, there was nothing else.

Ying Sheng carefully examined the minerals in the cave that were emitting the same color as the light spots in the air. They were also flashing along with the light spots, flashing like breathing.

"The purple-black ore is so beautiful. It must be the energy absorbed by the giant Pokémon!" The black shell, coupled with the flickering purple light, renders the ore a beautiful purple-black color, shining like a deep amethyst.

When Ying Sheng saw these minerals, he had no desire to protect them. He just took out an energy-absorbing instrument and aimed it at the minerals to detect whether it was the energy generated by the minerals that caused the wild Pokémon to grow so huge.

"Drip, drip, drip..."

"Huh? There is no required energy? How is that possible?" After some inspection, Ying Sheng thought that he could absorb the full energy of the instrument at one time, but it was not displayed in the instrument.

Ying Sheng was puzzled. Did it have to be absorbed and transformed by the Pokémon before it could be absorbed by the instrument? Wouldn't it take a long time to collect it?

"If it's not ore, could it be the black energy produced by the black soil on the ground? Let's try it!" After thinking for a moment, Ying Sheng squatted on the ground and pointed the instrument at the ground.

"Drip, drip, drip..."

"That's not it? That damn old man must have some conspiracy to drag me here."

After testing the ore and soil and finding no energy fluctuations, Ying Sheng inevitably became a little irritable, and the way he vented his irritability was to curse the president of the Sifang Association.

Ying Sheng calmed down. After all, there was still one thing that had not been tested. He quickly walked to the stone pillar, pointed the instrument at the pillar, and started testing!

"drop!!!"

"This is that kind of energy. This world is really fun. Who would have thought that the supporting pillars are the source of energy?" Seeing the instrument that detected energy fluctuations on the stone pillars, Ying Sheng was speechless.

He then took the instrument away and prepared to lay the stone pillar down for the instrument to absorb it. He saw a small hole appear at the place where the instrument had touched before, and the size was exactly the right size for the pointed tip of the instrument.

"Pure energy body, without any residue at all!"

Ying Sheng put on gloves and touched the small hole. He was shocked to see that there was nothing left after the energy was absorbed.

Suddenly, Ying Sheng thought of something and hurriedly picked up the instrument to check the reserve value of the energy collection bottle. He found that in just a short period of time, the reserve value had increased from 20% to 21%. This was much easier than defeating a Pokémon.

At this rate, it would take less than half a day to fill the collection bottle.

"Boskodora, go around these stone pillars and cut them down. Don't let them collapse."

After all, it is a supporting pillar, and Ying Sheng had no idea of ​​cutting it in half. He just asked Boskodola to shave off a thin layer. There are more than a dozen pillars visible to the naked eye, which is enough for the instruments to absorb, and there should be a lot of energy left to take back.

He placed the stone pillar skin that Boskodora had shaved off on the ground, then put the instrument on it, and let Boskodora protect the instrument while automatically absorbing energy. Then he took Sun Eevee, Scorpio and Eevee to explore deeper into the cave.

……

"Report, Captain, I have something important to report!" Wang Lei reported loudly at the door of Xuan Luo's office where he was working hard.

The loud voice quickly brought Xuan Luo, who was immersed in the documents, back to his senses. He looked at him and said, "Come in. Didn't you go to investigate the anomaly in the secret realm? How come you're back so soon? You found the anomaly in the secret realm right away."

"Report, Captain, it's not a problem with the secret realm, it's a problem with the Quartet you mentioned before!"

Wang Lei's words made Xuan Luo frown. Ever since a member of the Four Party Association escaped from him and Xiao Sheng, he had asked people to pay attention to possible unusual movements of the Four Party Association. Is it about to explode now?

"Since the day before yesterday, countless members of the Quartet who were on missions outside have entered through the main island entrance that we control, and according to the surveillance personnel, these people have not come out since they entered."

"What did the members we infiltrated the Four-Party Society say? Did they get any specific information?" Xuan Luo was concentrating on thinking about the current movements of the Four-Party Society. His fingers on the table tapped unconsciously, which made Wang Lei tremble with fear.

Wang Lei quickly responded to Xuan Luo's question, fearing that he would be punished by Xuan Luo if he wasn't careful. He didn't want to copy the Pokémon encyclopedia, as it would confuse his mind. "No news has come yet, but they said they will find out about this matter as soon as possible!"

"Remind them, tell them to be more careful. They can't reveal their identities because of this incident. If possible, try to keep some of the people inside and keep them at bay!"

Hearing Wang Lei's words to find out as soon as possible, Xuan Luo also emphasized his tone and asked Wang Lei to warn them more and not to expose their identities because of the momentary rush for quick success.

"I understand, Captain. I have already reminded them before coming here. The first priority is to protect their own safety and identity!" Wang Lei was also clear and straightforward in expressing his approach.

Xuan Luo nodded in satisfaction, "I am still confident in your work. If you find anything new, please inform me in time."

"Yes, Captain!"

"Go!"

After Wang Lei saluted, he turned and walked out of Xuan Luo's office.

After Wang Lei walked away, Xuan Luo signaled Lucario to help close the door. He pinched the bridge of his nose and thought about something with a headache.

"Luo, is this thing difficult?" Seeing that Xuan Luo looked a little annoyed, Lucario used the ability of wave guidance to ask Xuan Luo in his heart.

"Perhaps. After all, we are not sure whether this is an action targeting Xiao Sheng alone or the entire alliance. But no matter which one it is, it means that the people from the Quartet will not take small actions in the future."

"Lucario, help me keep an eye on the entrance to the main island. I'm worried that the members of the Quartet hidden in the alliance may not want us to get any information."

Xuan Luo looked at the documents that Wang Lei put down before he left, and guessed that there was something strange in them. If he wanted to know the real situation, he had to go and see it in person.

"Luca! Luca!"

＜Understood, Luo! I'll be right there!＞

……

Ying Sheng, who was carrying out a mission in the secret cave, was unaware of the information found by Xuan Luo, but he had a hunch. He was just trying to "play" in order to prevent the president of the Sifang Association from finding any mistakes.

The instrument automatically absorbs energy and there is no need for him to stay there all the time. Naturally, he should use the limited time to explore more places.

"Black, black,...and still black!" The Sun Eevee has been using its flash skill to follow Ying Sheng, but there has been no change in the cave.

Ying Sheng tried hard to distinguish the different shades of black. "The only thing that is abundant here is the energy that the old man needs to collect. There is nothing else."

After estimating the time, Ying Sheng felt that the energy collection bottle should be almost full. "Solverine, Scorpio, let's go back! It's almost time."

When he returned to the cave entrance, before he reached Boskodora, he saw the green light on the instrument. Ying Sheng picked up the instrument, took back Scorpio and Boskodora, and let Sol Eevee take him and Eevee back to the ground.

"Ibrahimovic?"
