Chapter 66: Life Dew! Water Tera Shard! (1/5, requesting data)

Not far away,

Biscuit was watching Luo Ge, who was struggling to move forward.

To others, Luo Ge looked rather strange right now.

It was clearly just a few simple steps, yet for Luo Ge, they were as difficult to cross as ascending to heaven.

He looked like an old man nearing the end of his life.

Anyone who didn't know better might assume there was something wrong with Luo Ge's body.

But Biscuit knew very clearly that this represented Luo Ge's body approaching its limit.

Biscuit’s face was filled with appreciation as she quietly watched Luo Ge continuously break through his own limits.

She had very high standards for everything, whether it was people or gemstones.

Yet Luo Ge was one of the few people she had ever seen who was almost flawless.

His talent, intellect, and willpower were all top-tier.

She knew very well how difficult every step Luo Ge took right now was; even half a step was a significant improvement.

[This won't do.]

Luo Ge frowned, trying his best to shift his focus so his consciousness wouldn't remain immersed in the pain of the exercise.

Remembering that today's "Daily Draw" hadn't been used yet, Luo Ge moved his thoughts, and several messages immediately flooded his mind.

"Obtained item: [Great Ball] x5."

"Obtained skill: [Life Dew]."

"Obtained item: [Water Tera Shard] x10."

A skill?

The moment he heard "skill," Luo Ge understood that he had received something good again.

Luo Ge was instantly invigorated, his pace even quickened slightly, and he skipped past the first [Great Ball] to look at the second.

[Great Ball] was nothing special; it just had a slightly higher capture rate than a standard Poké Ball.

The second, the skill [Life Dew], was far more important because it was a rare healing skill!

[Life Dew]: Sprays magical water to restore one-quarter of the HP of the user and their allies on the field.

This was an area-of-effect skill; using it once could restore one-quarter of his HP.

This was also Luo Ge's first healing-type skill to date.

If he could moonlight as a Nen Exorcist thanks to Gastly,

then with the skill [Life Dew], he could legitimately become a healing-type Nen user.

Although healing-type Nen users were not as rare as Nen Exorcists, their numbers were still few.

According to what Biscuit had said, healing-type, exorcism-type, and space-type Nen users were all very rare.

They were also very important; in any faction, they would be highly valued and treated as honored guests.

Of course, that was provided the Nen ability’s effect wasn't too poor or the restrictions too harsh.

If it were some Nen ability that allowed someone to teleport one meter once a day, it wouldn't receive much attention.

The last item was the [Water Tera Shard].

This item originated from the Paldea region; it could be said to be an item related to Terastallization from Pokémon Scarlet and Violet.

Terastallization.

Simply put, it could change a Pokémon's type and boost the power of moves matching the Tera type.

The power of corresponding moves would increase by 1.5 times.

And every Pokémon only had one Tera type.

If a Trainer was dissatisfied with their Pokémon's Tera type, they could change it.

This required the use of Tera Shards.

For example, the [Water Tera Shard] in Luo Ge's hand could change a Pokémon's Tera type to Water.

However, for now, this thing was useless to him.

Because Pokémon Terastallization required a [Tera Orb], and since he didn't have that, he naturally couldn't use it.

Overall, the most useful of the three was the skill [Life Dew].

As his focus returned, Luo Ge, having moved forward quite a bit more, finally couldn't hold on any longer.

He chose to rest and let Biscuit use her Nen ability to restore his stamina.

After returning to the camp, the first thing that caught his eye were Machi and Shizuku, who were also sprawled out in their tents, having just been treated by Biscuit.

Accompanied by the familiar sensation of the hot spring, Luo Ge’s tense nerves finally relaxed, and he quietly enjoyed the massage from Miss Cookie.

"Ring ring ring..."

More than half an hour later, Luo Ge was awakened by a sudden ringing sound and the familiar wet sensation on his face.

"Eevee?"

Opening his eyes, he saw the petite Eevee standing beside him, licking Luo Ge's face like a little kitten.

How should he put it? Luo Ge felt it was at least better than the sound of Nidoran hitting rocks back then.

"Good girl, go play with Gastly."

After casually placing Eevee to the side, Luo Ge took out his phone.

It was currently 1986 in the Hunter world, and the latest communication tool was a PHS-type mobile phone.

The model he had now was considered relatively new.

Seeing this, Biscuit and the other two also watched, curious about who was calling Luo Ge.

Especially Biscuit; her curiosity was very strong, and she was quite surprised that someone would call him.

After all, in the month of training, she had never seen Luo Ge's phone ring.

She didn't even know Luo Ge had a phone; not many people in this era had phones, and many used old-fashioned communicators.

Similar to a pager on Blue Star.

Luo Ge didn't even need to look; he already knew in his heart who was calling him, as few people knew his phone number.

Of those not present, only Zhu Di remained.

After pressing the answer button, a crisp female voice came from the phone: "Is that you, Luo Ge?"

Hearing the familiar voice, a smile appeared in Luo Ge's eyes, and he smiled: "It's me."

There weren't many people who could make Luo Ge smile.

Counting Biscuit, his Master, there were only four people in total.
