"There's only one card left."
Lu Ye calmed himself down and turned over the last card.
The system roared again, but to Lu Ye's ears, the sound was like nature's music.
[Wow!!]
[Gold is rare!]
Lu Ye: “???”
I thought it was a legend, seeing it screaming and shouting here.
The so-called golden rarity is nothing more than a can of alkaloid, a blue suspicious drink also known as "speed enhancer".
[Speed Enhancer (Enhanced Version): Can increase the speed of the elves to a certain extent. The enhanced version has a more significant effect. It is not recommended for humans to drink.]
(Drink this and you'll be able to run faster than a Hong Kong reporter!)
Lu Ye: "... I always feel like something is going to go wrong with this introduction."
Although it says that it is not recommended for human consumption, the description makes it seem like Lu Ye is eager to drink it all.
Lu Ye pondered for a long time, and finally stuffed the can of suspicious blue drink into the cabinet.
"Wait until we capture the first elf, then let it drink it and try..."
"There shouldn't be any problem with the system's products. Even if I'm not a trainer, it's always right to run faster."
"Speaking of which, we haven't found the Poké Ball yet. Let's go to the Pokémon Shop tomorrow to check."
With the remaining 720 BP points, Lu Ye plans to try ten consecutive draws when he has accumulated 1,000 points.
Before going to bed, Lu Ye drank the can of Moo Moo fresh milk and smacked his lips: "It's a bit sweet."
[Drink "delicious" Moo Moo milk, BP points +40]
[First time drinking, host's constitution +1! ]
Chapter 6: The Mighty Heavenly Dragon! The Buddha Ksitigarbha!
Early on Sunday morning, Lu Ye met the landlord in the corridor who had gotten up early to collect rent.
"Xiao Lu, did you hear any strange noises last night?"
"Ah? I went to bed early yesterday. What exactly is it?"
"I don't know either... Many people in the community said they encountered strange things, and the lights in the corridor couldn't be turned on."
"Our elevator clearly only has one basement floor, but many tenants said they saw the button for the second basement floor..."
"It's okay, Sister Liu. Maybe the light bulb is broken. I'll go check it out later." Lu Ye said with a smile.
Sister Liu breathed a sigh of relief and said softly, "I made fish head soup today. I'll have the suction cup puppet deliver it to you later."
Lu Ye nodded, and only reacted when he was halfway to the corridor, with a strange look on his face.
"Fish head soup... Could it be Magikarp?!"
It’s an old building with six floors, and even the elevator is a freight elevator, so it’s normal for the wires to short-circuit.
Lu Ye went to the first floor, checked the electric valve, and replaced a light bulb.
"Strange, the light bulb is obviously fine."
Lu Ye scratched his head and walked into the elevator for some unknown reason.
The air in the dim freight elevator was humid, and the small advertisements for sublease were covered with mold.
Below "B1", there is an unclear button - "B2".
Lu Ye rubbed his eyes, but only one button "B1" appeared in front of him.
"Did you see a ghost in broad daylight?" Lu Ye swallowed.
"System, how do you usually handle this situation?"
[Recommended skills: Holy Light Lv1 requires BP points: 2000, Punishment Lv1 requires BP points: 3000, Great Dragon Lv1 requires BP points: 5000]
“You even have Punishment and Great Heavenly Dragon!
"Forget it, now is not the time to complain about this - do you dare to show me some skills that I can afford?"
[Recommended skill: Psychic Vision Lv1 BP points required: 500]
[Do you want to spend 500 BP points to unlock the skill "Spiritual Vision Lv1"?]
"Hurry up, hurry up!"
[Remaining BP points: 260]
[Spiritual Vision Lv1: Improves vision, with a small chance of identifying spiritual creatures. (Your vision is different from that of ordinary people, but be careful, too much spiritual vision is sometimes not a good thing...)]
Before Lu Ye could think about it, he looked around cautiously and a drop of cold sweat dripped from his forehead.
"Nothing... nothing?"
In the empty freight elevator, a cold wind blew through the room, bringing with it a musty smell, and a dim incandescent lamp was creaking.
The old man in security uniform yawned outside the elevator.
"Young man, you've been standing in there for quite some time... You're not peeing or defecating anywhere!"
Lu Ye left the elevator with a strange look on his face.
"Uncle, there aren't any urban supernatural legends around here, right?"
"Yes, my granddaughter told me." The old man became interested, "She said there was a girl called Slit-Mouthed Woman, but she was actually a spirit called Big-Mouthed Baby."
"And that old lady with a cat face, guess what she is—Zoroark!"
"Uncle, stop it." Lu Ye looked strange, "Your granddaughter knows enough!"
"That's right, my granddaughter is an elite trainer!" the old man said proudly.
"I know you, the tenant on the sixth floor. You haven't been out for more than half a month."
"Look at your young age, why don't you become a trainer and make achievements instead of staying here as a small anchor!"
"Thank you for your good words." Lu Ye retreated hastily.
…
Walking on the way to the elf shop, Lu Ye recalled the scene just now.
"It shouldn't be a supernatural event, it's just a ghost-type elf... This makes sense."
Lu Ye is a staunch materialist.
As the saying goes, a gentleman does not speak of strange and supernatural powers - a fighting-type's supernatural powers are indeed enough to defeat a ghost-type.
"Then let the boss lady find a few elite trainers to exorcise the spirits, and there should be no problem."
After letting out a breath and calming himself down, Lu Ye opened Meituan and searched for nearby businesses.
"For lunch, there's a kaiseki restaurant here... Daidaibi sashimi, 3,888 yuan a portion? Excuse me!"
"Let's go buy some Poké Balls first." Lu Ye muttered, "There are a few breeding houses nearby, we can go check them out later."
In the system store, a red and white ball costs 200BP, which is a bit expensive.
In comparison, a Poke Ball that costs 500 yuan in reality seems much more cost-effective.
When he arrived at the Pokémon Shop, Lu Ye spent 2,500 yuan to buy five Poké Balls, and had a balance of 17,000 yuan left.
But in the breeding house, Lu Ye did not see the initial elf he liked.
"Eevee and Grunt are very popular Pokémons," the clerk said regretfully, "even if you want to pre-order, you have to do it six months in advance."
"It's okay, I'm just asking."
Similar to the valuable pets in the previous life, the price of Eevee is 30,000 and the price of Grunt is close to 50,000.
Lu Ye was really short of money.
Elf eggs like those of unicorn beetles and stingtail beetles are very cheap, you can pick one for two or three hundred yuan, and your aptitude will be left to fate.
Bird elves, such as Bobo and Owl's elf eggs, are also for sale, costing around 2,000 yuan.
But Lu Ye thought that instead of buying this common Pokémon, it would be more cost-effective to catch one in the wild himself.
"If you want to capture a Pokémon yourself, please be sure to pay attention to your safety," the clerk said embarrassedly, "In recent years, there have been many news reports of accidental injuries."
The plan to rub Ibrahimovic failed, and Lu Ye had no choice but to return to his residence.
The sun sets in the west, a dim dusk fills the air, and a flock of firebirds fly across the sky, making hoarse calls.
“Gah!”
Lu Ye was playing with the pocket-sized Poké Ball in his hand. With a snap, he held the enlarged Poké Ball in his palm and was having a lot of fun.
He walked into the elevator with ease, and a drop of cold sweat suddenly ran across Lu Ye's forehead.
"broken."
The vision in front of my eyes suddenly became blurred and the style of painting suddenly changed, as if someone had suddenly turned the color of the world upside down.
If I have to describe it, it's like JOJO's magical color change -
The row of elevator buttons was covered with creepy green bloody handprints.
The incandescent lamp above my head shook wildly, making a screaming "crackling" sound, the wick flickered violently, and finally went out with a "hiss".
In the dead silence, the smell of decay and mildew filled his nose, and the damp and cold wind licked Lu Ye's neck like a long scarlet tongue.
Lu Ye shuddered all over.
The elevator door closed automatically and then slowly opened after falling to the second underground floor.
[“Vision Lv1” judgment—great success! ]
A fluorescent green appeared in front of Lu Ye's eyes, and he could see everything at a glance like an "eagle's eye".
At this point, Lu Ye calmed down and raised his head expressionlessly.
A pair of eyes with big bulging whites, a smile that stretches from ear to ear, scarlet tongue coating, and a long tongue.
Gastly approached and looked at Lu Ye, staring at each other for a full minute.
“Click—”
A white light suddenly lit up.
Lu Ye lowered his head, his hands trembling, and sent a message to the fan group in the live broadcast room.
"[picture]"
"What should I do if I see a ghost late at night? Waiting online, it's urgent!"
Chapter 7 'Green' has joined the chat group
"Teacher Lu, you have come to this day!"
"Ah, this..."
"Cute, I want to fuck you."
"??? The person upstairs, please behave yourself!"
All those who usually lurked were awakened, and the group was suddenly filled with a happy atmosphere.
[Fighting Man: ...How about trying to throw a Poké Ball?]
[Teacher Lu: Are you sure it won't get angry after I throw the ball?]
[Fighting Man: ...]
Chihong dived again. Lu Ye put down his phone, became ferocious, and glared back at Gastly.
"What are you looking at!"
"Kou Jie?"
At this moment, the phone started buzzing again, and a somewhat familiar ID made a suggestion.
