Chapter 40: The Price of Choice

But... Where did you get so much life force here to supply the power wall, and I didn't see anything.....

Wait a minute.... Those stinky mud....

Thinking about it this way, those stinky mud are not sleeping, but because the vitality is passing and they have no energy.... Knowing that the energy supply of the energy wall was the vitality of those stinky muds, Yan Ming also instantly thought of a countermeasure.

Although he didn't have the ability to destroy the ability wall, he only needed to let the candlelight spirit take a step ahead of the energy wall, absorb those life forces, and let the power that formed the energy wall form a short-term stop operation, and that's it.

"Candlelight Spirit, can you feel the strange life energy around you except for me, the Flashing Ghost, and the Cutty Dog?"

Hearing Yan Ming's words, Candlelight Spirit nodded, he just felt the rich life energy here, and he liked the environment here very much.

Seeing Candlelight Ling nodding, Yan Ming hesitated a little.

He knew that with the unrestrained sucking speed of the Candlelight Spirit, those stinky muds that might have been dying might have died here.

Although the stinky sludge itself is not loved by most trainers, their own people are champions of nature.

But when I think about it, even if they don't have the sucking of the candlelight spirit, they are still being drained of their life force, and the essence has not changed.

Yan Ming didn't know if there were any strange restrictions in this space, just the formation of the energy wall in front of him, he didn't know, Yan Ming had no ability to save them.

Not to mention that Yan Ming doesn't think he is a good person, and he won't offend the behemoth of Team Rocket for some strange stinky mud.

Yan Ming likes elves, but he prefers his elves to indiscriminate love.

What's more, it's better to die than to let those stinky mud continue to live like this, and let them end their lives.

Yan Ming is actually unwilling to find a proper reason to cover up his selfishness, because in Yan Ming's opinion, since you have done this, and you are still a beneficiary, you should not cover up your nature for the ridiculous opinions of others.

After all, no matter how you explain it, what you do will not change the original trajectory because of your self-comfort, so why can't you be honest, for example, I want to kill you, that is my purpose, no matter what emotions I have about it, or crazy hatred for you, or self-comforting intolerance, or lamenting the realization of life, this cannot change the fact that I want to kill you.

But now, Yan Ming understands why people have to find a reason for what they do, because you can't completely separate the sensibility from the rational, and do it independently.

No matter how rational a person is, his heart will be more or less mixed with some emotional thinking.

That's why you need the motivation of self-soothing to help you temporarily block out the influence of emotion.

Shi Ming understands this now, too.

"Candlelight Spirit, please, temporarily absorb the life force that is surging to the wall of ability....."

Hearing Yan Ming's words, the candlelight spirit nodded, and slowly floated to the side of the ability wall, and the next moment, he saw that the flame above the candlelight spirit's head seemed to be stimulated by something, gradually expanding, and the faint purple fire light would illuminate the surroundings, and a little starlight could be seen from it, which was the dissolution of life energy, bright and short.

At the same time, the moment the candlelight spirit absorbed the life energy, Yan Ming found that the black and red energy wall in front of him began to become erratic, and slowly, dissipated in front of Yan Ming.

Seeing this, Yan Ming nodded to the candlelight spirit, and then stepped into it quickly, trotting to the nearest stone pillar.

And as if something had been touched, at the moment when the black-red wall of ability disappeared, the stone pillar closest to Yan Ming, the power grid that protected the top-level dark stone, suddenly dissipated.

Seeing this, Yan Ming did not hesitate, and reached out to take the top-grade dark stone in his hand.

Starting with the top-level dark stone, the cold touch made Yan Ming's heart very excited.

But Yan Ming didn't get carried away, and turned his eyes to a stone pillar power grid next to him.

After looking at it, Yan Ming's gaze was on the groove in front of the stone pillar.

Is there enough elf......

"And this shape ....."

Yan Ming compared it and found that this groove could be perfectly embedded into a Poke Ball.

It is supposed to be necessary to place the Poké Ball in this groove in order to trigger any mechanism.

It's just that judging from the black-red energy and the words left by the message just now, this groove needs to be placed with a Poke Ball containing the elves, and the elves in the Poke Balls placed in the grooves are likely to not come back.

Thinking of this, Yan Ming's eyes drooped.

If it is said that the first top-level dark stone can be obtained simply by giving up the heart of mercy, then the current one is to completely abandon one's own elves in order to get the remaining top-level dark stones.

But for most of the trialists in Team Rocket, if you give up the elves, you can get the priceless top-level dark stones, as long as your elves are rare, they will choose to give them up.

However, under normal circumstances, the elves that can come here will not be much weaker than the elves, and there will not be many elves.

The food and training required for elves to grow are very time-consuming and resource-intensive, and the caution for the third trial, and the scarcity of points, will not cultivate too many elves.

So the design in front of me, which seems to be obtained by only discarding the elves, has a big hole buried in it.

As long as you dare to give up your elves, then your combat strength will drop instantly, and don't forget, although the top-level dark stone is very rare, it is still an object after all.

If you abandon your spirits, you will most likely die in the third trial.

But suddenly, Yan Ming suddenly thought of the carp kings and stinky mud he had encountered before, and a dark light flashed in his eyes.

Yan Ming took out a small Poké Ball from his trouser belt, which was the one with the horn buds.

Looking at the Poké Ball in his hand, Yan Ming's index finger unnaturally rubbed the lines on the Poké Ball.

He was hesitating.

Giving up his elves, Yan Ming couldn't do this, whether it was a catty dog, or a flashing ghost and a candlelight spirit, they were all regarded by him as a partner or even a family member.

But the trumpet bud in his hand was unexpected.....

She is not a rare elf, nor is she voluntarily accepted by Yan Ming, and Yan Ming will not feel so uncomfortable if she is abandoned.

It's just that...... In the previous stinky mud incident, Yan Ming can say that no matter whether he wants to do it or not, it will not change the status quo of stinky mud, so Yan Ming's heart will not fluctuate much.

But for Yan Ming, what he is facing is not just as simple as giving up the horn bud, but what kind of attitude Yan Ming is ready to face this elf world.

Yan Ming was silent, his gaze moving back and forth between the Poké Ball and the top-grade Dark Stone.

His current situation on Team Rocket's Trials Island made him have to learn to fight, and he had to let go of that extra sympathy.

But is this really the life he craves?

For elves, Yan Ming's heart is kind, except for the two times of Bibi Bird and Abel Snake, the other party's release of the killing accident, Yan Ming has never killed an elf again, even if he fights with the catty dog in the wild, Yan Ming is only because of the limited medicine and did not treat, but he will not end the other party's life.

The emotions of elves are very straightforward and simple, they will give and get close to those they like, and they will not bend to those they don't like.

treats the elves themselves, Yan Ming himself has a good feeling, and the kind of emotional bond he experienced in the anime game is what Yan Ming has always longed for.

If he could, Yan Ming didn't want to be a person who would do anything for the sake of profit...

But when he crossed over to the beginning of the Rockets, he didn't have a choice.

He can treat the elves with kindness for his own heart, and feel their joys, sorrows, and sorrows, but this premise is that he must live.

Being alive is more important than anything else to the current Yanming.

Thinking of this, Yan Ming paused for a moment, and finally put the Poké Ball containing the trumpet buds back into his pocket, and turned around and walked out of the enveloping range of the ability wall.

The top-level Dark Stone, Yan Ming has already obtained one, and it can be left for the Candlelight Spirit to use for evolution.

As for the one that took the line, Yan Ming thought about it again and again, but still gave up.

It's just a top-notch dark stone, so you can't go against your heart for it.

Even if he took the top-level Dark Stone in his hands and then handed it over to Lin Yi's informant in exchange for the future in the future, it was only a possibility, who could guarantee that they would not turn their faces and deny people after receiving the Dark Stone?

Who guarantees the reliability of the transaction? Not to mention, will the other party care about Lin Yi's death, and when the time comes, he will be angry with himself, then doing so by himself is equivalent to sticking his neck to their knife.

Don't forget, this is Team Rocket, although not everyone is a big villain, but compared to the league, they don't care about superficial work, they want to be more profitable.

With a slight sigh, Yan Ming gestured to the Candlelight Spirit, and the flame above the Candlelight Spirit returned to its original state, and the black-red ability wall resurfaced in front of him.

However, to Yan Ming's surprise, after this vitality recuperation, the level of the candlelight spirit has been raised by one level, and it is now level 23.

Candlelight Spirit seemed to be well fed, and when he came back, he sat motionless on Yan Ming's shoulder.

"You too, eat a little more modestly, hold on now, you can't fly."

Yan Ming shook his head helplessly, took out the Poké Ball and put the Candlelight Spirit in.

At this time, the Flash Ghost and the Cutty Dog also dug up some unknown Dark Stones and handed them to Yan Ming.

Putting all the items into the bracelet, Yan Ming rubbed the hair of the catty dog and took the catty dog back into the poke ball.

"Glitter Ghost, can you feel any exits around you?"

The glitter nodded when he heard this.

"Yan Ming, just now I and Katy Dog found a cliff over there, Yan Ming, you can jump over, and there is an upward cave on the opposite side of the cliff, I went over to check it, there is an air current, you can get out."

"Okay, let's go."

Yan Ming followed behind the glitter ghost and walked towards the cliff.
