Pokemon: How Are You Cultivating Immortality in the Pokemon World?
#83 - A gathering place for stinky muds and people with super powers.
"The time is now. Assemble at 9 AM. Hurry!"
Looking at the message in his Fei Xin app, Lu Li's lips twitched slightly. Below the message was an unknown shared location.
He gathered his prepared tools, mainly energy blocks that Poison-type Pokémon liked to eat, some antidote potions, and finally, a specially made biochemical gas mask.
Riding his beloved Tropius, Lu Li quickly arrived in the suburbs of Qingyun City.
His 'style' wasn't as high as Yu Lili's, and he didn't dare drive without a license, so he didn't dare enter the city center. Fortunately, Ike's location was right in the suburbs.
After landing, Lu Li sent a message to Lian Sheyi.
"Are you at Ike's yet?"
Lian Sheyi quickly replied, "No, still on the way."
"Remember to prepare a mask or gas mask," Lu Li instructed.
Lian Sheyi replied, "Don't worry, my family has been playing with poison for four generations. I've already prepared a special mask."
Walking while messaging Lian Sheyi, Lu Li quickly arrived at the shared location that Ike had sent.
Lu Li looked around and muttered with a frown, "No one's here?"
Just as Lu Li was about to use his mental power to scan the surroundings, the gray earth slope in the distance suddenly moved, and a small, gray-faced figure poked its head out.
The little one with blue hair asked, "Hey! Are you the new trainer Ike was talking about?"
At that moment, another girl with goggles on her head and short pink hair pressed down on the blue-haired child and scolded, "Powder! We should observe him first."
After pressing down the blue-haired girl, the short-haired girl crawled out from behind the earth slope.
"I'm Vi, considered Ike's older sister. He asked me to pick you up here," Vi introduced herself.
"Powder… Vi…"
Lu Li was stunned.
He really wanted to ask this sister if they knew a man named Silco.
Suppressing his inner curiosity, Lu Li nodded with a smile, "Okay, thank you for your trouble."
Vi nodded and said, "You have to wait a little longer, there's one more person who hasn't arrived yet."
Lu Li knew that the other person Vi was talking about was Lian Sheyi, so he nodded understandingly.
"No problem," Lu Li once again revealed his signature amiable smile.
A smile is the best expression to bridge the distance between people. There's nothing wrong with showing goodwill to others.
Vi asked casually, "What's your current rank in the Ordinary level?"
"Late stage, I guess," Lu Li said, glancing at the small earth slope behind Vi.
After answering, Lu Li asked curiously, "If I came from behind the small earth slope, where would you hide?"
"Hide behind the reeds over there," a crisp voice came from behind the small earth slope. The little girl named Powder walked to Vi's side, holding a very dirty doll.
Vi introduced, "This is my sister, Powder."
"Powder? Nice to meet you," Lu Li greeted the little one with a smile.
"But speaking of which, are you biological sisters? It feels like your hair colors are different," Lu Li asked curiously.
Vi rolled her eyes at Lu Li and retorted, "The hair is dyed."
"Is that so?" Lu Li smiled meaningfully and didn't ask further.
Vi's camouflage was useless. Lu Li was very certain that Vi and Powder were likely mixed-race from two different regions, maybe even mixed-race from two different alliances.
But how did these mixed-race children end up with Ike and his "wild children"?
Lu Li was quite curious about this, but considering that they weren't very familiar with each other, Lu Li didn't investigate further.
"You're a trainer too, right? You should be going to the Grimer gathering place with us?" Lu Li continued to probe.
"Yeah, Ordinary late-stage trainer," Vi nodded.
"Ordinary late-stage?"
Lu Li looked at Vi with some surprise.
Knowing that Lu Li had misunderstood, Vi explained unhappily, "Don't be surprised, I'm already 17 years old. I can't compare to a genius like you."
"17 years old…"
Lu Li suddenly understood.
Being able to train a Pokémon to the Ordinary late-stage in one year, Vi's talent was indeed considered excellent, at least on the same level as Lian Sheyi.
But how could such a genius end up in this state?
Trainers at the Ordinary late-stage shouldn't be lacking in job opportunities, right?
Powder, who was holding a worn-out doll next to her, explained, "I'm Powder, I'm 12 years old this year."
17 and 12, the age gap between these two is a bit large.
Lu Li continued to make small talk, "Are you a Fighting-type trainer?"
"Yeah," Vi nodded expressionlessly.
Just as the two were talking, Lian Sheyi, carrying a backpack, also arrived at the destination.
"Hello, I hope I'm not late," Lian Sheyi's gloomy tone carried a hint of apology.
Vi couldn't help but glance at Lian Sheyi before nodding expressionlessly.
Once everyone had arrived, Vi led the way, "Follow me."
The group carefully descended a very steep cliff and went around a large circle before arriving at a sewage river.
Vi and Powder had already put on masks. The closer they got to the sewage river at the bottom of the valley, the stronger the stench became.
Having prepared in advance, Lu Li also put on his gas mask.
Going upstream along the sewage river, Lu Li finally saw Ike waiting for them at the sewage outlet.
Beside Ike was a slightly stocky teenager, but because he was wearing a mask, Lu Li couldn't clearly see his face.
"You're finally here."
Because he was wearing a mask, Ike's voice sounded a bit deep.
Lian Sheyi apologized again, "Sorry to keep you waiting."
Ike waved his hand dismissively, "It's my problem, we came here so early on purpose."
Lu Li asked directly, "Tell me about the situation inside."
With Elite-level strength, Lu Li was full of confidence at this moment.
"After entering from here, it takes about half an hour to reach the Grimer gathering place. If we calculate the time, we can just avoid the time when the Grimers gather."
Lu Li and Lian Sheyi both nodded.
Ike continued, "Then there's the distribution issue. You two and Vi can have priority in choosing Grimer."
Hearing this, Lu Li also looked at Vi.
Vi added, "The priority of the three of us can be divided according to strength. The Grimer egg king can be transferred to you at a low price."
Lu Li nodded to show that he had no objections. After all, this distribution method was advantageous to him.
Lian Sheyi glanced at Lu Li, then nodded to show that he had no objections either.
"Since that's the case, let's go," Ike said, leading the way after the three had finished discussing.
The environment in the sewer was extremely harsh: cold, humid, rotten, and stinky.
Lu Li was quite curious how Ike and the others had discovered this place. After all, no normal person would go into the sewer for no reason.
Lu Li asked curiously, "How did you discover the Grimer gathering place in the first place?"
"I guessed that there were Grimers in the sewer. Originally, we just wanted to track the Grimers to see if we could steal a Pokémon egg, and then we had an unexpected harvest," Ike explained.
Lu Li suddenly understood that Ike and the others wanted Grimer, which was how they discovered the Grimer gathering place.
Once the order was clarified, many things were understood.
Ike added, "We're mainly here to steal this time. We'll only rob if we really have to, and we have to make it quick."
Everyone nodded.
After another half an hour, the group finally arrived at their destination.
"The Grimer's gathering place is just around the corner ahead," Ike explained.
Some people carefully came to the corner and curiously poked their heads out to check.
The Grimer gathering place was in a corner of the sewer, which was filled with black sludge that looked very viscous.
Lu Li felt a chill in his heart when he thought about stepping on it to get the Pokémon eggs on top.
Several Grimers were slowly crawling on the black sludge. Lu Li observed through the Spirit Eye Technique and found that the strength of this group of Grimers was probably only at the Beginner level.
If they could get the eggs and run before the adult Grimers reacted, then the action should be very smooth, after all, they had overwhelming strength.
Ike explained from the side, "Those sludge are very soft and particularly deep. If you step on them, you'll sink in, so going straight over to get them is the most stupid thing to do."
Hearing this, Lu Li finally knew why Ike had called them all over.
"Powder is a psychic, she can use her mental power to take out the eggs from the sludge, but it takes time," Vi said from the side.
Hearing this, Lian Sheyi stared in disbelief at the blue-haired little one. Even Lu Li looked at Powder with some surprise. No wonder this 12-year-old little one was brought over. So this was what they were waiting for.
Moreover, a psychic…
Lu Li became even more curious about the identities of these sisters.
Qingyun City is considered a first-tier city in the Kyushu region, but the vast Qingyun City doesn't even have a single psychic on the surface. This alone shows how rare psychics are.
Translated to the cultivation world, Powder is a proper Heavenly Spiritual Root, belonging to the kind of cultivation genius that is one in ten million.
Thinking of this, Lu Li couldn't help but look at Powder.
For a moment, Lu Li had the urge to abduct a loli.
A psychic, and a 12-year-old psychic at that, this is definitely a Gym Leader seedling, or even a Heavenly King seedling.
Strangers can't be trusted, but can't he trust someone he's nurtured since childhood?
"Unfortunately, she's a bit old," Lu Li sighed in his heart.
Lian Sheyi asked in a calm tone, "So what should we do?"
Lian Sheyi was determined to get the Grimer Pokémon egg. After all, Grimer was really suitable for him as a Poison-type trainer.
"Powder uses telekinesis to retrieve the eggs. We're not sure how many Pokémon eggs are there, but try not to take more than 12, after all, we only have two hands.
And if all the Pokémon eggs are taken away, the Grimers here might riot," Ike arranged.
Hearing this, the corners of Lu Li's mouth twitched.
Twelve…
The naturally evil Ike is really ruthless.
Judging from the number of Grimers, it would be a blessing to have eight Pokémon eggs there.
Considering that there was a psychic next to him, Lu Li carefully scanned the area with his mental power.
1, 2, 3, 4…
A total of nine Pokémon eggs. It's definitely impossible to take them all.
Just as Lu Li was trying to carefully scan with his mental power, Powder, who sensed the aura of the same kind, looked at Lu Li with her light blue eyes, her little face full of excitement.
Powder's little face was flushed with excitement, and she whispered in her heart, "Cool ~ this handsome big brother is also a psychic!"
