Chapter 67: Life Dew! Water Tera Shard! (1/5, Seeking Data)
Not far away,
Biscuit was watching Luo Ge struggle forward with all his might.
To onlookers, Luo Ge currently appeared somewhat strange.
Though it was merely a few simple steps, crossing them felt as difficult as ascending to heaven for Luo Ge.
He resembled an elderly man on the verge of death.
Anyone unaware of the truth might assume there was something wrong with Luo Ge's body.
Biscuit, however, knew clearly that this signified Luo Ge's physique was approaching its limit.
Biscuit's face was filled with appreciation as she quietly watched Luo Ge continuously break through his own limits.
She held high standards for everything, whether people or gemstones.
Yet Luo Ge was one of the rare individuals she had ever encountered who was nearly flawless.
His talent, mental fortitude, and willpower were all superior.
She understood clearly just how difficult every step Luo Ge took now was; even half a step represented a significant improvement.
【This won't work.】
Luo Ge frowned, striving to shift his attention and prevent his consciousness from remaining immersed in the pain of exertion.
Recalling that he hadn't yet used today's "Daily Draw," Luo Ge focused his thoughts, and instantly several messages flooded into his mind.
"Obtained item 【Super Ball】 x5."
"Obtained skill 【Life Dew】."
"Obtained item 【Water Tera Shard】 x10."
A skill?
The moment he heard "skill," Luo Ge realized he had obtained something good again.
Luo Ge immediately perked up, his footspeed increasing slightly as he skipped past the first 【Super Ball】 to look at the second.
The 【Super Ball】 was nothing special; it simply offered a slightly higher capture probability than ordinary red-and-white balls.
The second item, the skill 【Life Dew】, was far more important, as it was a rare healing skill!
【Life Dew】: Sprays miraculous water, restoring one-quarter of the HP for oneself and allies on the field.
This was an area-of-effect skill; a single use could restore one-quarter of one's health.
This was also the first healing-type skill Luo Ge had acquired so far.
If relying on Gastly allowed him to moonlight as a Nen Exorcist,
then possessing the skill 【Life Dew】 meant he could rightfully serve as a healing-type Nen user.
Although healing-type Nen users were not as rare as Nen Exorcists, their numbers were still not large.
According to Biscuit, healing-type, exorcism-type, and spatial-type Nen users were all extremely scarce.
At the same time, they were highly important; any faction would value them and treat them as honored guests.
Of course, this presupposed that the Nen ability's effect wasn't too poor or its conditions too restrictive.
If an ability merely allowed someone to teleport one meter within a day, it would hardly garner any attention.
The final item was the prop 【Water Tera Shard】.
This item originated from the Paldea region, or rather, from Pokémon Scarlet and Violet, and was related to Terastallization.
Terastallization.
Simply put, it was a mechanic that could change a Pokémon's type and amplify the power of moves matching its Terastal type.
The power of corresponding moves would increase by 1.5 times.
Furthermore, each Pokémon possessed only one Terastal type.
If a Trainer was dissatisfied with their Pokémon's Terastal type, it could be changed.
This required the use of Tera Shards.
For instance, the 【Water Tera Shard】 in Luo Ge's hand could change a Pokémon's Terastal type to Water.
However, based on current circumstances, this item was useless to him.
Since Terastallizing a Pokémon required a 【Tera Orb】, and he did not possess such a thing, he naturally had no use for it.
Overall, among these three, the most useful was the skill 【Life Dew】.
As his attention returned, Luo Ge, having advanced considerably further, finally could not endure any longer.
He chose to rest, allowing Biscuit to use her Nen ability to restore his stamina.
Upon returning to camp, the first sight to greet his eyes was Machi and the other person, who were similarly collapsed inside the tent and had just been treated by Biscuit.
Accompanied by the familiar sensation of a hot spring, Luo Ge's tense nerves finally relaxed as he quietly enjoyed Young Lady Cookie's massage.
"Ring-ring-ring-ring..."
Over half an hour later, Luo Ge was awakened by a sudden ringing sound and a 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 kitten.
How should he put it? Luo Ge felt this was at least better than the sound of Nidoran crashing into rocks back then.
"Good girl, go play with Gastly."
After casually placing Eevee aside, Luo Ge took out his mobile phone.
It was currently 1986 in the Hunter World, and the latest communication device available was a PHS-style mobile phone.
The model he currently owned was relatively new.
Seeing this, Biscuit and the other two also turned their gazes toward him, curious about who was calling Luo Ge.
Especially Biscuit; her curiosity was strong, and she was quite surprised that anyone would be calling him.
After all, in this month of training, she had never seen Luo Ge's phone ring.
She didn't even know Luo Ge had a phone; in this era, few people had phones, and many still used old communicators.
Similar to pagers on Blue Star.
Luo Ge didn't even need to look; he already knew in his heart who was calling, after all, only a handful knew his phone number.
Of those not present, there was only Zhu Di.
After pressing the answer button, a crisp female voice came from the phone: "Is this Luo Ge?"
Hearing the familiar voice, a smile appeared in Luo Ge's eyes, and he said with a smile: "It is me."
Few people could make Luo Ge smile.
Counting Master Bisiji, there were only barely four people.
