Chapter 13: Greedent's Coin! Minor Elder Blake! (2/5, Requesting Data)

Leaving the running Nidoran aside, Luo Ge continued to look at the next thing.

【Greedent's Coin】: After collecting 999 coins, Greedent can evolve into Kingambit; currently, 30 have been collected.

Luo Ge was somewhat surprised, not expecting to obtain this item.

【Greedent's Coin】 appears in the game 【Pokémon Scarlet and Violet】, used to evolve Greedent into Kingambit.

The former has little strength and is merely a decoration, but the evolved Kingambit is different, with very good strength.

If there is a chance to obtain it later, that would be a fine thing.

However, Luo Ge did not hold out much hope for this; first of all, this 【Greedent's Coin】 requires 999 coins.

Just having Greedent itself, he does not yet; even if the coins were collected later, it would be in vain.

It must be said that the quality of the items obtained today is very good.

Except for the most common 【Pecha Berry】, the other two items are very rare, especially the surprise brought by 【Psychic】.

It is equivalent to giving his psychic energy an additional form, allowing it to transform into psychic power for use.

Creak—

Maylene opened the back door of the house and shouted at Luo Ge and Nidoran: "It's about time to eat."

Luo Ge hadn't moved much, but Nidoran, who had been trotting along, suddenly twitched both ears.

Then, taking advantage of the moment, he passed by Maylene's feet, rushed into the house to prepare for the meal, and even ran faster than before.

Like a purple lightning bolt, he dashed into the house with a whoosh.

Luo Ge:...

Seeing that Maylene had no reaction, seemingly already accustomed to Nidoran's behavior, Luo Ge could hardly hide his smile.

His Nidoran is simply too straightforward.

He just likes two things.

First, training; second, eating.

In both aspects, he is more proactive than anyone else.

Maylene blinked her eyes, a hint of confusion appearing in her gaze, and asked:

"Luo Ge, you usually say Nidoran should rest."

"But aren't you also training all day long?"

As she spoke, Maylene pointed at Luo Ge's hands; at that moment, he was holding two large stones, constantly practicing his strength.

From Nidoran ramming the rocks, to him activating his psychic ability, to Nidoran running, he had been training continuously!

Only in the middle, to shake hands with Nidoran, did he put down the stones for a moment.

Nidoran wants to grow up quickly so he can help them.

Mach and Maylene are also training hard, longing to be able to help Luo Ge soon.

But neither of them is as hardworking as Luo Ge.

Luo Ge knows very well that possessing such a psychic ability was not easy to come by; it is no different from having a cheat.

Therefore, he cannot waste it.

He must put in the effort to maximize the use of his psychic ability.

With such a psychic ability, every increase in his strength is equivalent to an increase in multiple strengths!

As the leader, how could he fall behind others in this aspect?

Thud! Thud!

Luo Ge casually threw the stones in his hands onto the ground, producing two dull sounds in succession, indicating they were not light.

He is not much different from Mach and Maylene; he just has slightly higher physical constitution and the assistance of psychic energy.

But his physical constitution is still insufficient; he needs to train his body in these aspects.

Only then can he go further on the path of 【Nen】.

Luo Ge clapped his hands, brushing the lime dust off them, and said with emotion:

"You all work so hard... how could I slack off?"

Inside a relatively luxurious villa in the inner area of the Phantom Troupe's territory,

the villa's exterior is a typical Western-style house, with a fountain in the yard as decoration.

There is also a place specifically designated as a garden, where many clusters of flowers are planted, and some servants are trimming branches there.

The road leading to the house is very clean, swept by personnel every day.

The style here is completely different from the mountain of garbage in the outer area of the Phantom Troupe's territory.

They are both houses in the Phantom Troupe's territory, yet the environments are worlds apart.

It is said that the author of Hunter x Hunter, Yoshihiro Togashi, based the Phantom Troupe's territory on the country of India on Blue Star.

The owner of this place is a Minor Elder of the Phantom Troupe's territory.

Although the Phantom Troupe's territory is a chaotic place, the chaos is limited to the outer area; the inner area has clear hierarchical divisions.

Divided into four directions—East, West, South, and North—the Phantom Troupe's territory has a total of four Elders who manage various affairs concerning the territory.

To better manage their territories, these four Elders appoint trusted aides to manage; generally, one Elder appoints two trusted aides.

These trusted aides are also called "Minor Elders" by the locals.

Although their power is far less than that of the true Elders, they still control a territory, belonging to the level of local tyrants.

Inside the villa,

in a room with slightly dim lighting, a flame mysteriously ignited in a dark corner, followed by a plume of smoke rising.

Blake held a cigar between his fingers, took a light puff, let it pass through his mouth, and then exhaled it.

His fingers tapped rhythmically on the table, as if striking the bald henchman's heart, causing it to skip a beat.

Blake remained silent for only a moment before fine beads of cold sweat began to seep from the henchman's gleaming bald head.

Blake was a middle-aged man with a trim build, a beard framing his chin, and a pair of inverted-triangle eyes that glowed with sinister malice.

Though Blake stood in a dark corner, the bald henchman could only see sparks flickering from the shadows.

Yet he knew those eyes, brimming with murderous intent, were fixed upon him!

After a long pause, Blake spoke slowly, his voice low:

"So... you're saying that child killed Moyes and those two henchmen all by himself."

"And then walked away with quite a few items from the shop, hands empty."

"I must not have heard wrong."
