Chapter 152

The scene where Yae Miko delivers the Vision caused a great shock to the characters on-site and in the live group chat room. General Raiden Shogun, also known as Ei, even cast an encouraging glance when she saw that the deal was actually completed. General Raiden showed a satisfied look, and all the characters suddenly came to their senses from a trance.

"Hey, General Raiden has a Meltan, plus the paper sword from Yae Miko. Wouldn't the future of Inazuma add two mythical members of the legendary beast class?"

Jean: "I represent Mondstadt, just like lemon (sour.jpg)."

Ningguang: "I represent Liyue, just like lemon (sour.jpg)."

The Wind Archon of Mondstadt is fishing. Liyue's Geo Archon has retired. Look at Inazuma—the Electro Archon is on the throne, her strength is superior, and now she has thrown in another Heart of God. She traded back an Ultra Beast Kartana that could conquer a nation.

Jean and Ningguang: "We Mondstadt and Liyue also need mythical beasts to rule the nation!"

Don't worry about scarcity; worry about inequality. The sweeping momentum of the Age of Pokémon is unstoppable. In such a big world, at the level of Pokémon, there are mythical beasts that rule the country. It's equivalent to being in charge of a nuclear-level strategic weapon!

Jean: "All members of Mondstadt, everyone must actively use the number of draws every week. Anyone who draws a divine beast, don't be afraid that you can't bear the cost. Contact me directly, Mondstadt will be your backing!"

Ningguang: "All members of Liyue, same as above. I suggest everyone use the opportunity as soon as the number of draws refreshes each week. Whoever draws the divine beast will directly enjoy the status of Zhuguo and the Qixing!"

Jean, Ningguang: "I'll pay for your mythical beast!"

Takumi took a look at the activities in the group chat. Ah, this... Inazuma got two mythical beasts in one day. One is a juvenile, and one is a fully evolved beast capable of fighting a demon.

It seems that two powerful leaders, Jean and Ningguang, cannot sit still. It makes sense—at regional and national levels, controlling a mythical beast would greatly help maintain peace and order. These two think fast.

The characters in the group realize that mythical beasts are very valuable, comparable to the Heart of God. The rich woman Ningguang is probably worried. However, if it's raised to the level of a nation and financed by the treasury, the characters who draw the mythical beasts will probably be very willing to sign a contract to serve their country.

Yae Miko also drew an Ultra Beast comparable to a divine beast. Additionally, Takumi used real combat to vividly demonstrate a divine battle.

After the store reopened, the atmosphere didn't cool down but became even more heated. Draw a mythical beast? Can't afford it? Didn't you see Jean and Ningguang speak from the bottom of their pockets? If Inazuma gets another mythical beast, Raiden Shogun and Yae Miko would be willing to empty Inazuma's treasury for it.

However, the two mythical beasts of Raiden Ei and Yae Miko seem to have exhausted Inazuma's overall luck. Apart from that, Miss Ayaka Kamisato from the Yashiro Commission also appeared.

The other characters did not draw Pokémon above the level of the starter trio. With no good results, everyone, including the cameras in the group chat room, focused on Ayaka Kamisato. The reason why Ayaka was the slowest was either because she was so lucky that she kept getting starters, or because she was trying to match her Ice Vision with a compatible Pokémon.

After gritting her teeth and consulting Takumi, Ayaka clicked "skip" several times. If she could match her Ice Vision, her partner could react with the elements of water and fire.

Ayaka Kamisato skipped over several grass-type starters, and she felt a little numb. "The fifth draw! Mother, look at me and protect me—" Ayaka was so focused that she didn't notice the people around her rushing up. She clicked directly on the extraction option on the Pokédex. Who am I? Florges!

An elegant and beautiful Pokémon immediately made Ayaka Kamisato's eyes shine. "Store manager, store manager~ Is there anything you can say about this Pokémon?"

Takumi realized that in every region, there is always a character with extraordinary luck. First, Ayaka got Phione, a commoner of the sea, from a magical egg. Now, it's another beautiful Pokémon with 552 base stats in its final form, which could likely compete with Traveler Lumine for luck!

Takumi said, "Florges looks like an anthropomorphic flower. The lower part of its body has a stem-like structure, and its head resembles a flower. Depending on the color, Florges can have five forms: red, orange, blue, white, and yellow."

When Takumi led Florges out, a group of people had fiery eyes. Florges in reality was far more beautiful and elegant than in the Pokédex. She was only over one meter tall, with a very slender body. She walked elegantly, smiled gently at Ayaka, and said.

"Flo, Florges~" (Greetings, Trainer).

She couldn't speak human words but bowed gracefully like a noble lady. Her voice was mature and distinctly feminine.

Takumi continued, "Florges is a Garden Pokémon, the final evolution of Floette. In the elven world, in ancient times, city lords would recruit Florges specifically to build gardens. The garden is Florges' territory, and during its long life, she continues to protect it!"

This Florges was level 40, and her potential was at the Champion level. Takumi glanced at the system's quote. "That'll be 30 million Mora," he said. The final evolution was of high value, so naturally, the price was a lot higher than that of a baby.

Ayaka Kamisato was delighted with Florges and happily handed over the deposit slip.

On opening day, within just an hour, almost all of Inazuma's famous characters had exhausted their number of draws. There were Raiden Ei and Yae Miko drawing mythical beasts, and Ayaka Kamisato getting a powerful Pokémon. Of course, there were also those who ended up with less impressive results, such as Arataki Itto. His fifth draw was still a "pig"—Grumpig.

In direct contrast to Arataki's enthusiasm, he originally rejected Grumpig, but Takumi's comments made him reconsider. "A pig with psychic powers? Fine," Itto said, pinching his nose. It was the Year of the Pig, after all. Anyway, he already had a bull named Ushi, so raising another pig didn't seem too bad!

Takumi attended to the characters one after another, keeping track of the day's events: "Almost all of Inazuma's famous figures have participated, except for those from Watatsumi Island, like Gorou and Sangonomiya Kokomi... Does Teppei count?"

Takumi winced at the thought of Teppei. That knife hurt deeply—such a passionate young man from the resistance army, similar to Tomo, whose life ended due to the corrupting power of the Delusion. Teppei's death was one of the few named character deaths in the main storyline of Genshin Impact.

"I saved Rosalyne; how could I not save Teppei?" Takumi mused. Moreover, the main plotline of Inazuma had already taken a different course for Lumine, the Traveler. The Vision Hunt Decree and the Sakoku Decree had ended, and yet Lumine's adventures would continue.

With Inazuma's ecological zone coming online soon, the quest to become a Pokémon Champion would mean that Lumine would bring Paimon along, exploring Inazuma once more.

On Watatsumi Island, in the ancient times of Inazuma, Watatsumi and Narukami held considerable status. Under the protection of the great serpent god Orobashi, Watatsumi Island established an independent political entity. However, after Orobashi's heroic death for the people of Enkanomiya, Watatsumi had no choice but to acknowledge the Shogunate's rule and became a highly autonomous jurisdiction.

After the Raiden Shogunate promulgated the Vision Hunt Decree and the National Isolation Decree, under the leadership of the young Divine Priestess Sangonomiya Kokomi, Watatsumi Island once again rose up in resistance.

In the plaza of Sangonomiya Shrine, Kokomi and Gorou looked at each other in shock as they saw the massive tidal surge in the direction of Narukami Island being eliminated.

"What's happening over there?" Kokomi wondered. Since Inazuma's Adventurer Guild hadn't yet started selling Pokémon mobile phones, there was no way for them to contact the Teyvat Pokémon Network, nor get footage of the divine beast battles now going viral online.

Outside Sangonomiya Shrine, a giant screen delivered by Yae Miko stood, apparently designed to receive the official signal of the Liyue Pokémon Trainer Competition.

Gorou, the general of Watatsumi Island, and Miss Hina, a gender-swapped persona, were dedicated to answering people's questions and delivering correspondence through Yae Publishing House. Yae Miko had mischievously edited Gorou's character, creating the persona of Miss Hina—the "strongest confidante sister" in Teyvat, who had an unexpected fan following.

Gorou said, "I plan to go to Inazuma City to check the situation and find out the truth!"

Kokomi nodded. "Do it! The purpose behind Yae Miko's gift of the giant screen to Sangonomiya Shrine is unclear. I suspect there may be a major change in Narukami Island or Inazuma City!"

Meanwhile, in a tent within the resistance camp, a young soldier named Teppei lay asleep. Suddenly, a figure appeared silently in the tent—Takumi. He looked at Teppei intently, confirming he had the right person, and placed a magical egg and an incubation device by the bed.

Teppei turned over in his sleep, muttering, "Pokémon... Even without a Vision, I can still become strong... I want to make a name for myself... I want to embrace the Pokémon era... I want to be a Pokémon master!"
