There were already many people in the Gray Dungeon who knew Karp, and Karp had greeted Ash before he came to the dungeon, so no one came out to stop him from the time he entered the dungeon until he saw Ash.

And when Karp saw Ash, he found that he was still the same, and had been sitting in his seat with his eyes closed and pretending to sleep, until Karp stepped into the interior of the main hall and he did not open his eyes.

"Do you have anything to do with me?"

Karp looked at Ash and opened his eyes and asked directly, but Ash did not answer Karp's question directly, but pushed the question back.

"Things on my side are very simple, but you, you won't come to me for no reason."

Listening to Ash's voice, Karp scratched his head and didn't mean to hide it, and directly told him that he had gone to the Soluo Gym to help Geng Ghost complete the mega evolution.

“… After that, although the Great Steel Snake couldn't test the degree of bonding, I originally wanted to try it with a Great Steel Snake's evolution stone, but the owner of the Sola Gym told me that the Evolution Stone of the Great Steel Snake in their Gym was taken away and is now out of stock, so I plan to ask you to see if you have any information or channels outside the Sola Gym. ”

Ash gave Karp a strange look at him when he heard his voice, took a box directly from the side, and threw it at Karp.

He could feel that Karp's superpowers were getting stronger again, so he wasn't afraid that Karp, who could use telekinesis, would make things fall to the ground - and Karp didn't even use his superpowers, and just caught the box that Ash threw over.

"Let's open it and take a look."

After getting Ash's permission, Karp opened the box, and then he saw the evolution stone inside the box.

He was stunned for a moment when he first saw this evolution stone, but when he thought that he seemed to be talking about the big steel snake evolution stone just now, he also cast a surprised look at Ash.

"Do you still have extra ...... in your hand" Karp remembered the strange gaze of Ash before and reacted halfway through his words: "Could it be that the big steel snake evolution stone of the Soluo Daoist Pavilion was helped by you?" ”

Seeing that Karp reacted, Ash nodded directly.

"Yes, that's what I told you before, after all, according to the time, you will have to participate in the championship battle at the end of the year at the most, so completing the mega evolution of the Great Steel Serpent before that will also help you compete for the championship.

Although I didn't expect you to find the Solo Gym and help your Geng Ghost complete the mega evolution first, but there is still half a year to go, and it is enough for you to complete the mega evolution of the Great Steel Snake. ”

Listening to Ash's words, Karp nodded.

"It's really enough, and in addition to asking you about the Evolution Stone when I came to the dungeon this time, I also have the idea of wanting to train in the dungeon for a while, do you think it's okay?"

Ash listened to Karp's words, and nodded directly.

"The training ground you used when you practiced before has not been used by anyone except you, so after a little cleaning, you will still use the previous training ground to train, of course, the room you lived in before is also empty now, but you also need to clean it."

Hearing Ash say that, Karp nodded at him, and then said goodbye and left.

Ash watched Karp's back slowly raise the corners of his mouth, and closed his eyes again.

"Anyway, I hope you don't let us down - the Speaker has been holding out for too long, and it looks like he can't hold on anymore, and by that time the matter of Arceus will be handed over to you, Karp."

……

Karp is unclear about what Ash expects from him, and at this stage he is more concerned than those things are the upcoming championship fight.

With about half a year to go before the championship match, Karp also needs to prepare. With this in mind, he left the ashes for his training ground and room, and then gave the elf a simple training and handed it the giant evolution stone of the Great Steel Serpent.

Similar to the method of storing evolution stones in Geng Ghost, the method of storing evolution stones in the big steel snake is also to eat them directly, and then control the purple flame in his body to store the evolution stones in his body.

Seeing that the Great Steel Snake had come up with a way to store the Evolution Stone, Karp also revealed the Keystone.

Although he has a certain amount of confidence in the bond between himself and the big steel snake, he can't say whether he has met the requirements of mega evolution or not, so Karp plans to try to let the big steel snake complete mega evolution here.

The Great Steel Serpent opened its mouth after receiving the command from Karp, and under the impetus of the purple flame in its body, its evolution stone appeared directly in its mouth, and then a trace of light appeared along its mouth like a hot breath and echoed with the keystone in Karp's hand.

"Big Steel Snake, Mega Evolution."

With Karp's voice, the bond between him and the big steel snake resonated, and the big steel snake's body also directly resonated with the light that was not dazzling.

Basically, the mega evolution of the big steel snake is the same type as the Geng ghost, and it is the kind of type that feels like the overall change is not particularly big when it comes to light, but after the light dissipates, you can feel the shape of the strange type, so with the spread of light, the big steel snake doesn't look much different under the cover of light, but after the light dissipates, the big steel snake also reveals a new appearance.

After the evolution of Mega, the overall color of the big steel snake has not changed, and the main color is still the same black as before. Compared to these, the main surprise between the mega steel snake and the big steel snake is reflected in the changes in the body.

The Mega Steel Serpent is two circles larger than the Mega Steel Serpent, with an additional circle of floating metal fragments around its neck, which are divided into six groups and rotate in a clockwise direction. The color of the pupils changed from red to blue, six fang-like protrusions appeared on both sides of the mouth, in addition to the three pairs of stick-like protrusions on its original body and the sharp part of the tail became crystalline materials similar to diamonds, and the four body segments without stick-like protrusions were flanked by an additional blue hexagonal pattern.

After the evolution of the big steel snake, the characteristics of the big steel snake have directly changed to the sand power that can increase the power of some special moves in sandstorm weather, and the physical attributes have been further improved in terms of defense and attack ability.

After completing the mega evolution, the big steel snake adapted to its current body a little, and then stayed in front of Karp as honestly as it usually did, showing no signs of rampage.

Karp looked at it like this, touched its head with one hand, and after making sure it was okay, he let it back out of its mega form and put it back in the Poké Ball.

Now that the Great Steel Serpent has also completed its mega evolution, Karp doesn't plan to go out from here for the time being. After tidying up the room and putting away all his daily necessities, Karp lay directly on Kirbymon's belly, looking at his group of elves and muttering softly

"In the next six months, let's do a good pre-game preparation."
