Chapter 326: The Forest Of Confusion, The Secret Behind It!

"Xiaozhi, this forest looks a bit eerie!"

Not long after entering the Confused Forest, Misty and Serena felt a chill around them, as if something unclean was staring at them.

I couldn't help feeling a little scared, and unconsciously hugged both Xiaozhi's arms.

Get as close to Xiaozhi as possible, as if this way you can feel a sense of security.

"Indeed!"

Xiaozhi nodded. Within the range of his waveguide power, there were dozens of waveguides around them.

The owners of the waveguide are ghosts and Gengar.

With so many Ghost-type Pokémon hiding in the dark and watching, can it not be eerie?

That is to say, Xiaozhi's Qi and blood are strong, and he has a variety of special abilities, so he doesn't feel much.

Normal people will feel uncomfortable as soon as they enter the "One Four Seven" Forest of Puzzle Forest.

Misty and Serena's reactions at this time are the best proof.

After hearing Xiaozhi's words, Misty subconsciously thought about the gods and ghosts.

The hand holding Xiaozhi's arm became stronger, and his whole body couldn't help but tremble.

"Really...really? Xiaozhi, don't scare us!"

The energetic girl Misty, who usually looks carefree and fearless, showed her most vulnerable side at this time.

On the contrary, Serena, who usually seemed easy to bully, behaved slightly better and turned around to comfort Misty.

"Don't be afraid Misty, wherever Xiaozhi is, he will protect us."

But her slightly trembling voice showed that her mood at this time was not as calm as she showed.

Obviously, she was also a little scared, but she suppressed her emotions forcefully.

"There's no need to be afraid, this is nothing else, just a Ghost-type Pokémon."

Xiaozhi smiled and touched Misty and Serena's little heads and said to them.

Then a blue light flashed in his eyes, and Psychic burst out instantly, photographing all the Haunter and Gengar who were hiding in the dark and preparing to play tricks on the three of them.

One by one, they are neatly arranged on the ground in front of them.

The scene looked somewhat spectacular.

It turned out to be them?

The fear came from the unknown, after Xiaozhi captured all the Haunter and Gengar hiding in the dark.

I learned that the objects of fear were these Haunters and Gengar.

The fear in Misty and Serena's hearts disappeared completely.

Isn't it Haunter, Gengar?

Xiaozhi also has a Gengar in his hand, and it looks much bigger and stronger than these.

Nothing to be afraid of!

The two of them were just trying to scare themselves!

But why are there so many Haunters and Gengars living in this forest?

At this time, Misty and Serena had another doubt in their minds.

Xiaozhi also felt that it was unreasonable. Speaking of it, the Puzzled Forest was not an environment that Pokémon like Haunter and Gengar liked.

Like Haunter and Gengar, Normal loves abandoned human buildings, which is where most urban legends come from.

Few Haunter Gengar prefer to live in a forest environment.

Especially the trees in the Forest of Confusion are not very dense. When the sun rises, it is difficult to find a forest where you can enjoy the shade.

And even if there were, they would never appear in groups like in the Confused Forest.

There is a problem with this, and it's not a small one!

Xiaozhi touched his chin and pushed up the non-existent glasses on the bridge of his nose.

[Ding, trigger the mission: Unravel the mystery behind the Forest of Confusion

[Mission completion reward: Heracrossmega evolution stone*1]

At this moment, a message prompt triggered by a system task suddenly appeared in Xiaozhi's mind.

While Xiaozhi's eyes lit up, it also confirmed his suspicion.

There is indeed a problem behind the Forest of Confusion!

I'm afraid these Haunters and Gengar don't appear here naturally, but are man-made.

Now that the task is triggered, the society must be confused by the truth behind the forest.

The rewards of the Heracrossmega Evolution Stone are still very delicious!

Xiaozhi took over the task and explained his guess to Misty and Serena.

Misty and Serena were especially angry when they heard Xiaozhi guessing that there might be someone behind these Haunter and Gengar...

If it hadn't been for Xiaozhi just now, the two of them would have been frightened to death by the Haunter and Gengar who were about to start playing pranks.

Who is so immoral and letting so many Haunters and Gengars here to scare people?

What is his purpose in doing this?

Is it just for fun?

Regarding Misty and Serena's doubts, Xiaozhi had an immature answer in his mind.

If anyone had the motive to keep so many Haunters and Gengars here, it would undoubtedly be someone who lives in the Cloud of Bewilderment.

Ling Nastina makes a living by renting Hoothoots that can see through Haunter and Gengar's illusions.

After all, she is the direct beneficiary of so many Haunters and Gengars in the Forest of Puzzle scaring passers-by.

In terms of motivation, "There is a high probability that the person behind the scenes is Ling Nastina!"

Moreover, in the original plot, the behavior of these Haunter and Gengar does not make sense - they are just using illusions to scare people, and there are no other aggressive behaviors.

After renting Hoothoot from Ling Nastina, you only need to see through their illusions and you can safely pass through the forest of confusion.

Immediately after passing through the Forest of Confusion, there will be a mother-in-law Jin Ling called Sister Ling Nastina waiting outside the Forest of Confusion to take back the rented Hoothoot.

The doubts here are so big that it's a bit scary.

In order to prove his guess, Xiaozhi stepped forward and used Psychic to cast Hypnosis on the Gastly3.5 passers and Gengar who were subdued by him.

Sure enough, I got a positive answer from the hypnotized ones.

They are the Pokémon raised by Ling Nastina. They are responsible for finding travelers passing by in the Forest of Confusion and using illusions to scare them.

So that Nastina starts the business of leasing Hoothoot.

The passer-by who was frightened for half his life did not care that the rent in Shangzhong was ridiculously high.

As long as you have enough money, you will rent it without hesitation.

Even if the money is a little lower, adhering to the principle of not making a bastard if you have money, Ling Nastina will still choose to rent it out.

After all, this is a business without capital!

Moreover, the seemingly loss-making behavior of renting can easily make those travelers have a good impression of her.

After leaving the Forest of Confusion, I spontaneously promoted her.
