Chapter 418: Gothitelle, Lucario
If his donation winnings were included... for S-rank secret treasures alone, he could probably choose several hundred...
Fortunately, this room was large enough, seemingly boundless. Never mind a few hundred items; even tens of thousands could be brought out. The Spiritual Medicine Bureau was established over a hundred years ago, and since then, it had been continuously collecting secret treasures.
Moreover, the Spiritual Medicine Bureau was a state-owned enterprise!
Its branches covered the entire country. While selling, it was also collecting secret treasures from secret realms all over the nation.
Regarding S-rank secret treasures, Hikaru quickly selected seven or eight that suited Sakura (Xiao Ye).
Then he used his own quota to choose a dozen more, keeping them for his own Pokémon.
He also selected seven or eight secret treasures suitable for Senior Sister Xue Nai.
Then, after searching around, Hikaru couldn't find a single SS-rank secret treasure and couldn't help asking, "Is there anything better here?"
"There is."
Shen Chu naturally knew about the ranks of secret treasures. She glanced at the ceremonial lady beside her, who understood and immediately excused herself.
"Please follow me, you two."
She led Hikaru and Sakura (Xiao Ye) deeper inside, pushed open another door. This time, the number of secret treasures displayed on the shelves was noticeably smaller, but compared to the previous room, the quality of the secret treasures here was indeed much better.
SS-rank secret treasures were considered rare items even for Hikaru.
And in here,
He even saw many items covered in the aura of Legendary Pokémon.
Such as the Origin Feather dropped by the Articuno Hikaru had encountered on the snow mountain before.
[Articuno's Origin Feather]: SS-rank secret treasure. After an Ice-type Pokémon inherits and absorbs it, its aptitude can be greatly enhanced! After a Water-type Pokémon absorbs it, it can learn Ice-type moves!
Not just Articuno's...
There were also Entei's fangs, Suicune's purifying water, Zapdos's and Moltres's origin feathers....
Moreover, Hikaru wasn't the only one selecting here. Beside him, he also saw a few acquaintances.
For example, Pan Shanyu, and Chen Chen.
The group exchanged greetings.
Shen Chu introduced to Hikaru and Sakura (Xiao Ye), "SS-rank secret treasures generally cost between three hundred million and five billion. Generally speaking, only when the prize money amount reaches over one billion will the Spiritual Medicine Bureau open this section."
"Most of the secret treasures here are related to Legendary Pokémon, usually precious items left behind by Champion-level or higher Pokémon."
This was actually information she only learned after her rank in the Spiritual Medicine Bureau had risen.
"Mhm." Hikaru nodded. Secret treasures like these indeed had excellent effects and great utility.
But for him, he still wanted to see if there was anything better.
So, he cast his gaze towards a door leading to the innermost room, "Are the secret treasures in there of even better quality?"
Shen Chu looked troubled, "I don't know about that. My clearance level only allows me to take you to this room."
Judging by the trend that the quality of secret treasures improved the further inside one went, the innermost room definitely had the best quality secret treasures, but she didn't have the authority to open that room.
"Mhm..."
Although it was a bit regrettable, Hikaru didn't dwell on it. He planned to look around here and see if there were any suitable secret treasures for his, Sakura's (Xiao Ye), and his senior sister's Pokémon.
Just then, a somewhat aged voice suddenly came from the shelves over there, "Come here, children."
The group looked towards the sound.
It was an old man with a goatee and a full head of white hair, looking at them kindly.
Beside him were a Lucario and a Gothitelle.
Both Pokémon had restrained auras; from their appearance, one couldn't discern any particular strength.
The first to greet him was Pan Shanyu, his attitude clearly respectful, "Elder Gong!"
Then the others reacted, "Good day, Chairman Gong."
Regarding the Chairman of the Pokémon League Headquarters, although his presence was very low-key, it didn't mean those present didn't know his identity.
"Come here, children."
Gong Hui stroked his beard and beckoned to the group.
They exchanged glances and all walked over.
Hikaru even used [Eye of Scrutiny] to look at the data of the two Pokémon.
[Pokémon: Lucario]
[Ability: Justified]
[Gender: Male]
[Talent: Third-Tier Deity]
[Level: 98]
[Moves: Aura Sphere, Mach Punch, Detect, Extreme Speed, Swords Dance, Calm Mind, Metal Sound...]
Holy crap!
Hikaru cursed inwardly. A level 98 Lucario, wasn't this even stronger than Liang Yue's Lucario?
It was even stronger than that Articuno from before.
No wonder his Aura had faintly warned him not to release his Aura power when he first came in.
In front of such an existence, releasing Aura power, wouldn't that make him a clown?
A question that had long troubled Hikaru gained some clarity.
Since the Great Pokémon Era,
Although not all Legendary Pokémon had made appearances, some were still relatively active.
For example, Moltres, Articuno, and Zapdos often appeared within Huaxia's domain.
Entei liked to slumber in various volcanic craters, while Suicune purified polluted waters around the world.
There were also Latias and Latios of Alto Mare, and the God of Ocean Currents that often appeared in Wind City.
Kyogre, Groudon.
M Country's Nightmare God—Darkrai.
The God of Space (Palkia) and God of Time (Dialga) who once wreaked havoc in M Country's capital.
And the Tao Trio that appeared in N Country.
Also, the God of the Sky (Rayquaza) who stops battles.
Each of Them had strength above level 100. If such beings went berserk in human territory, wouldn't humans be completely helpless to deal with them?
Could they only wait for Them to calm down on Their own?
Now it seemed Hikaru had underestimated the human side.
Take the Ye family, for instance; they had a Dragonite that had successfully reached level 100.
Now, Hikaru saw a level 98 Lucario.
Although these still couldn't defeat those Legendary Pokémon, they at least had the power to protect themselves in front of them.
Secretly, humans definitely possessed even greater power.
He then turned his gaze to Gothitelle.
[Pokémon: Gothitelle]
[Ability: Shadow Tag]
[Gender: Female]
[Talent: Third-Tier Deity]
[Level: 95]
[Moves: Charm, Psybeam, Psyshock, Hypnosis, Psych Up, Psychic, Future Sight, Magic Room, Dark Pulse, Metronome....]
Similarly, this Gothitelle was also a level 95 Pokémon.
Such formidable Aura plus psychic power, unless it was a top-tier Legendary Pokémon, and a Psychic-type at that, it would be absolutely impossible to sneak in here undetected.
However, such a Pokémon, Hikaru seemed to recall having one in his impression?
"Good children..."
Looking at these young trainers before him, Gong Hui couldn't stop nodding.
Especially towards Hikaru, he couldn't be more satisfied.
This child, by the time he reached his age, his achievements would definitely not be inferior to his own!
