the Poison Sting, coated in venom, entered through the ear and directly scrambled Black’s brain.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Black immediately bled from his seven orifices, his eyes rolled back, and the Nen on his body dissipated before he could even use it.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>This also meant his life force had vanished.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Seeing this, Luo Ge, who had been tense, finally showed a look of relief.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It was worth the two hours he had spent waiting here just for the moment the opponent came out to ambush him.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It looked like it had been solved easily, but in reality, it was the result of Luo Ge’s meticulous planning.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It also involved a certain element of luck.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>First was the stiffness from [Fake Out].\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Without it, a bitter struggle would have been inevitable, and if it hadn't hit, Luo Ge would have chosen to abandon the fight.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Second was Nidoran’s move [Poison Sting]; the reason it could hit the ear, which was a weak point,\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>was not just luck, but also because Nidoran had used the move [Focus Energy] before the battle.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>[Focus Energy]: Concentrate one's spirit, making one's attacks more likely to land a critical hit.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Therefore, one of Nidoran’s three Poison Stings successfully hit the weak point.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>All in all, it was thanks to the sneak attack and the move effects; otherwise, Black wouldn't have been so easy to deal with.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Luo Ge didn't need to confirm if Black was dead, because the experience points Nidoran gained were enough to tell the story.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Immediately after, Nidoran underwent a sudden mutation.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Its purple body suddenly emitted a dense white light, a gentle white radiance.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>At the same time, Nidoran inside was changing its form, its body gradually growing larger.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Luo Ge’s pupils constricted as he stared at the glowing Nidoran, hesitating:\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"This is...\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Evolution?!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>At this very moment, Nidoran was undergoing evolution, developing toward its next form.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Pokémon were magical creatures; most of them could evolve and become more powerful.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Generally, starter Pokémon could undergo one or two evolutions.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Until they could no longer evolve, which was called the final form.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Luo Ge remembered that Nidoran should evolve around level 16, so it seemed it was around that level.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>While he was thinking, Nidoran had completed its evolution, the white light gradually dissipating to reveal its brand-new appearance.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Nidoran’s body had grown to about double its previous size, as if scaled up proportionally.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>At the same time, its face lost some of its cuteness and gained more bravery; its limbs were thicker and more powerful, and the horns on its head and back were larger.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Luo Ge could clearly feel that its aura was now much thicker than before, and its strength had increased significantly!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Looking at the changed Nidoran, Luo Ge couldn't help but feel a sense of emotion, as if the child he had raised had grown up in an instant.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Nidoran... no, I should call you Nidorino now.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Luo Ge stroked Nidorino’s head, and Nidorino rubbed against Luo Ge’s hand happily, still calling out:\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Woo-woo~\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Compared to its Nidoran phase, Nidorino’s cry was deeper; it was growing in every aspect.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Although Nidorino wasn't as cute as before, Luo Ge accepted it gladly; after all, it would only become more handsome.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>In fact, many Pokémon were cute in their initial forms and became more rugged as they evolved, which was why many people didn't want their Pokémon to evolve.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Nidoran was still okay; its future final form, Nidoking, was also very handsome.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Looking at the grown-up Nidorino, a flash of joy crossed Luo Ge’s eyes; the harvest today was quite good.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The experience points from these two Nen users alone made the trip worthwhile, directly shortening Nidorino’s growth process.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>And next was the real highlight of his harvest.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Luo Ge turned his gaze toward the hidden door on the other side; inside was Black’s collection room.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>If he used his Nen ability in there, what would he get?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Because this Nen ability could only be used once a day, Luo Ge was accustomed to saving it, in case he went somewhere else later.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Originally, he had planned to use today’s Nen ability after leaving Meteor City, but now it seemed using it in Black’s collection room was also fine.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After walking to the collection room with Nidorino, Luo Ge’s first reaction was that it was quite old, exuding a gloomy feeling everywhere.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Perhaps because only Black came in, it was usually in a state of disuse, giving Luo Ge a feeling of lifelessness.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>At the same time, there were many antiques inside; some were better, like bottles and jars.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But some were antiques resembling biological remains, making the place even gloomier; if a child came in, they would likely be scared.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>So, what would he get in here?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Luo Ge held a sense of anticipation, held Nidorino’s paw as usual to add a bit of luck, and then prepared to start \"drawing cards.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Just as Luo Ge activated his Nen ability, a pair of pale eyes in the dark of the collection room were staring at him.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But then they disappeared, as if they had never appeared at all.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Nidorino seemed to sense something, its large ears flapping like wings, receiving finer sounds.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Nidorino’s ears were magical, or rather, this family of Pokémon was like that.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Their ears were large to facilitate hearing finer sounds for early warning, and they could even flap like wings.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But after sensing carefully, Nidorino didn't find anything wrong, so it had to give up. ===== CHAPTER 24 =====\u003C\u002Fp>",954,"2026-06-17T08:28:42.186Z",1,"Gemini 3.1 Flash Lite","25679f83fc17c3498759a448ac58df4f94e5cbe1ca58f73aebb863388cbba77d","anime-multiverse-starting-from-hunter-x-hunter-chapter-23","anime-multiverse-starting-from-hunter-x-hunter-chapter-21",371,"https:\u002F\u002Fnovelzhen.com\u002Fimages\u002Fcovers\u002Fanime-multiverse-starting-from-hunter-x-hunter-cover.jpg"]
