In the lighted room, a brown-haired boy pressed one hand on the head of a tall yellow duck, and while gesturing with the other hand, he kept saying something in his mouth.

"I'm sorry, I'm sorry, I took a share of what was supposed to be yours, but I promise, I really only took a small piece!"

Using his thumb and index finger to compare the weight of the crimson agate he used, Takumi also kneaded it slightly on the top of the duck's head, as an apology for the duck.

"Quack~"

"Well, a Pokémon that forgive the trainer is a good Pokémon!"

Taking Da Da Ya's meaningless eyes and inexplicable cry as his understanding, Takumi patted his cheek twice, and then picked up the crimson agate that he set aside.

The efficacy system of [Pure Red Agate] has been clearly stated, and the focus is on spiritual power.

And Takumi counted the Pokémon in his hands, and there are not many Pokémon that have a need to improve mental power, and it seems that Duck and Six-Tails are more suitable for using this thing.

Although it can also be used by other Pokémon, it is a bit tyrannical if its own combat style and growth path are not quite in line with the superpower system.

After hesitating for a while between the Six Tails and the Duck, Takumi finally chose to give the [Pure Red Agate] to the Duck to use.

The reason is very simple, the six tails have the regular combat ability to fight in real time at this time, while Da Da Duck wants to fight, but there are too many restrictions.

But if this agate with miraculous effects can enable Da Ya to better control his mental power, even if he can use superpower skills for a longer period of time, then it will be a great improvement for Takumi's current overall strength.

As a result, Takumi gave up using this agate, which is very likely to allow the six tails to quickly master the use of [Divine Power], and instead chose to use the effect of this agate to shorten the long cultivation time for Da Duck to become a regular combat power!

The [Pure Red Agate] was printed on the center of the eyebrows of the duck, and with the assistance of the system, the fist-sized crimson agate began to undergo the same changes as when Takumi used it half an hour ago.

The bright red, seemingly fragrant agate liquid was strangely not affected by gravity, but floated in front of the duck's forehead to form a puddle of red liquid.

Strands of red silk are drawn from the liquid mass and then drilled into the eyebrows of the duck, where they play their role as a 'strange thing'.

Watching all this intently, Takumi was also a little curious, after all, when he used that small portion of agate before, he couldn't see every bit as clearly as he did now.

Perhaps because of the large amount, it took a full five minutes for all the red liquid turned by the crimson agate to penetrate into the depths of the duck's eyebrows, but Takumi didn't look the slightest bit impatient, but stared at the duck to see what would happen to the duck with such a large piece of agate.

One minute.

Five minutes.

Ten minutes.

When the duck tilted its head and stared at its duck egg eyes, and the mung bean-sized eyeballs moved to the right side of the eye socket for ten minutes, Takumi finally couldn't show a calm and breezy appearance.

Reaching out and waving in front of the duck. No response.

Shouted 'Da Da Duck' twice, but there was no response.

Connecting with the spirit of Da Da Duck through a spiritual link, there is still no reaction.

"Hey, hey, duck, are you alright?"

Some anxiously called out to the duck, and at the same time stretched out his hand to shake the duck who had not reacted for a long time, but Takumi's hand touched the duck's head, and the duck's body began to fall behind him.

Boom!

The forty-pound duck smashed on the floor with a muffled sound.

Walking forward quickly, Takumi, who was squatting next to Da Da Duck, hurriedly checked the Da Da Duck who fell to the ground.

It's just that as the examination progresses, Takumi's originally slightly anxious expression becomes strange.

After a few minutes, Takumi stood up with his hands on his knees, and his face was also crying and laughing.

If some of the basic inspection skills and common sense he mastered were not wrong, then Da Duck's reaction seemed to be ......

Fell asleep?!!

Vaguely a sound came into the room, and Takumi listened carefully for a while, judging that it should be a voice from the front yard, as if the travelers who had gone out for the celebration party had begun to return.

Takumi, who couldn't continue to delay, confirmed the state of the duck again, and after confirming that there was really nothing wrong with it, he put it into the baby ball, and then the whole person re-burrowed into the quilt that had become cold.

……

"Judging by the map, we will be able to arrive in Dead Leaf City tomorrow, and we will finally be able to stay in the comfort of the city for a few more days!"

Fold the map back in his hand, Takumi raised his hands and stretched hard, and then shouted loudly at Radha and the pangolin in front of him.

"Come back and rest, we're going to start preparing lunch!"

For Pokémon, plenty of delicious food definitely has a big part of their hearts.

Even Rada, who trained the hardest in Takumi's team, would show a comfortable expression when enjoying the food, and at this time, when he heard Takumi's shout, he directly stopped the training on the way to the reconnaissance, and returned to Takumi with the pangolin as quickly as possible.

"Withered Leaf City seems to be a port city as well, I don't know who is more prosperous compared to Aoba Port and Lampulqi?"

Squatting in front of the space backpack that Takumi had put down, Ai Ye took out the cooking utensils and various ingredients from it, and said something that I don't know if it was talking to myself or asking Takumi about it.

"In the case of Withered Leaf City and Aoba Port, it should be more prosperous in Withered Leaf City."

"As for Rampurki, wait for two years to see if it can return to its former glory after it is rebuilt......

Takumi, who was in a good mood, naturally responded to Ai Ye's words, and the longer he spent with Ai Ye, the more Takumi said during his travels.

This also made Takumi understand why most trainers always like to be in company with people during their travels, and taking care of each other is one aspect, and the other aspect is that it can effectively relieve the psychological pressure that boring, exhausting, and sometimes dangerous travel brings to trainers.

Speaking of Rampurki, Takumi couldn't help but think back to what happened after the night he used Crimson Agate.

After that night, Takumi and Ai Ye continued to stay in Rampurqi for three days before leaving, but Du, Kona, and Ah Ju seemed to have their own things, and after staying in Rampulqi for another day, they all said hello to Dr. Oki and left Rampurqi.

Tuohai and Ai Ye worked with Zhiye to help the alliance's rescuers transfer, resettle the victims, and also did some work to clean up the roads.

In this way, after showing his 'helpful' side in front of many people, he made it convenient for the alliance disaster relief material distribution personnel, and after replenishing the supplies he needed, Takumi took Ai Ye to say goodbye to Dr. Oki and Ash and his party.

And Takumi's departure also made Xiao Mao, and Xiao Zhi and his party also give up the idea of continuing to stay in Rampurqi, after all, the alliance's disaster relief operation in Rampurqi can be said to have taken into account all aspects, and they are just icing on the cake here, in this case, continuing the unfinished journey is the right way.

As for Lampole, what will the future hold?

Honestly, no one knows.

……

"Withered Leaf City."

Gently reading the words on the sign, Takumi's eyes also showed a hint of joy.

Ten days of wild travel, although there are also town accommodations along the way, but it is certainly not as prosperous as a big city like Withered Leaf City.

Putting the other Pokémon into the Pokéball, leaving only the Six Tails to follow, Takumi and Ai Ye walked along the wide concrete road towards the downtown area of Dead Leaf City, and even their steps seemed to be a little brisker.

"Let's take a day off today, and tomorrow I'll go collect information about the Withered Leaf Gym and then decide whether to challenge the Gym that day."

Talking about his decision in a clear manner, Ai Ye basically just nodded, after all, he had been traveling with Takumi for a while, and Ai Ye also knew that Takumi would basically not make any mistakes in the arrangement of these things.

Just waited for a while, and found that Takumi didn't mention a thing, Ai Ye couldn't help but ask in a low voice.

"Well, Takumi, don't you really need to take Da Da Duck to the Pokémon Center for treatment? It hadn't woken up in more than ten days......"

Hearing Ai Ye mention this, Tuohai waved his hand indifferently.

"Don't worry, I'm pretty sure the duck doesn't need treatment."

Seeing this, Ai Ye had to sigh slightly.

Glancing at Ai Ye, who was still a little worried on his face, Tuohai also showed a trace of helplessness on his face.

If you want Ai Ye, who is in charge of the diet, not to find out about the duck, except for some extreme measures, it is basically impossible.

When preparing food for Pokémon for two days in a row, Da Duck was not released by Takumi, Ai Ye could roughly guess that Da Da Duck seemed to have a problem, just looking at Takumi's attitude, plus because there were other people present at the time of Lampul, Ai Ye just pretended not to know.

When he left Lampurqi, in the face of the tea-haired girl's questioning, Takumi had no choice but to release the duck that was still sleeping from the poodle.

Seeing that everything was fine with Da Duck, and he could even eat the food delivered to his mouth in his sleep, Ai Ye also let go of some of his worries.

But when she asked the reason for the duck's sleep, she was only perfunctory by Takuha.

Now Ai Ye talked about Da Duck again, and Takumi was also a little speechless.

If something really went wrong with Da Duck, then there is no need for Ai Ye to say, whether it is to go to the Pokémon Center to find Joey, or to ask Dr. Oki for help from Rampurki, Takumi will definitely take action.

However, there is really no problem with Da Da Duck, and even Takumi connects with Da Da Duck's spirit through a spiritual link, and he can also feel that Da Da Ya's spirit is more active than before.

And in the end, what put Tuohai at ease was because of himself, to be precise, because of a small phenomenon he found when he looked at the exchange ability in the system.

It happened ten days ago.

After the end of the realistic mission here in Lampel, Takumi's points are 1800 points, and he used 500 points to perfectly cut the [Pure Red Agate] that should have been used by the entire Pokémon, and he swallowed a small piece to strengthen himself, and the remaining points in Takumi's hand were only 1300 points.

And because of the savings of 1300 points, which is neither high nor low, the upgrade of some skills is definitely not enough, so Tuohai is not busy exchanging points for any items or abilities.

When you leave Lampulqi, you will be a little bored before going to bed at night, as if you are idle and have nothing to do to shop on Taobao, even if you don't buy it for the time being, you can write down the items and abilities you value first.

However, people who shop on Taobao always like to look at their shopping cart to see what products are inside, even if it's just a second glance.

Although there is no shopping cart in the [exchange] option of the system, after seeing the upgraded version of the ability he already has, he can't help but glance at it.

"Spiritual Link (Advanced): Link to the target's spirit, which can communicate with the target without barriers, and can also briefly share the vision and hearing of the link target. Link range, 200 meters. Maximum link target, 5 people. ”

"Redeem points: 2260,. Mastery of Psychic Links (Intermediate) is required. ”

As one of the abilities that he can be said to use the most, Takumi can't count how many times he has checked the skills of the Spirit Link system in the [Exchange] option, not only its skill effect, but even the exchange price Takumi can be said to know it well.

However, now, the exchange price of the Spiritual Link (Advanced) that is extremely impressive in my impression is only 2260 points?

Tuohai can be sure that the exchange score he has seen many times before is definitely 2500 points.

The system is naturally impossible to discount for no reason, thinking like this, Tuohai opened his [information] and directly opened the detailed introduction of the spiritual link (intermediate), and sure enough, the introduction of the spiritual link (intermediate) has undergone a small change.

"Spiritual Link (Intermediate): Link the spirit of the target, which can deliver a complete sentence to the target, and can also perceive the target's short response. Link range, 110 meters. Largest link target, 2 people. ”

"Note: Upgrading to Spirit Link (Advanced) requires 2260 points."

The link range that was originally only 100 meters has now become 110 meters, and it is impossible for a sudden ascension to go without a reason, and the only reason that Takumi can think of is the crimson agate that night used.

Over the next few days, Takumi observed the slight changes in the introduction of the Spiritual Link (Intermediate) skill every day, and found that the exchange score was gradually decreasing at the rate of 10 points per day.

And after careful analysis, Takumi had a guess.

"Due to the use of [Pure Red Agate], my spiritual power ushered in a large increase when I used it, and then because of the effect of crimson agate to nourish my brain and enhance my body's potential, my spiritual power is still rising little by little."

"And the increase in spiritual power, reflected in the skill introduction of the spirit link, is the reduction of upgrade points."

It's not just the skill of spiritual link, Takumi also noticed in the [Exchange] option that the exchange price of other 'abilities' related to spiritual power has been reduced accordingly, which also verifies Takumi's inference from the side.

"The large amount of spiritual power increase at the time of using the Crimson Agate is probably the reason why Da Duck fell into a deep sleep, because its body was still unable to accept such a huge amount of spiritual power, and it was under instinctive protection, and it fell into a deep sleep directly."

"And with the subsequent effects on its brain and body, the duck will gradually adapt and master its powerful abilities."

Taking out the duck's Po Ball from his pocket, Takumi muttered quietly.

"When you wake up, maybe, you'll surprise me......"
