Besides…
Lu Li touched the necklace on his neck.
He was a man who had watched the ninth-generation anime. If that guess could come true, then his value would be much higher than the Ideal Envoy.
After finishing the phone call, Lu Li left the basement.
Just as Yao Yifei and the Wei sisters were there, Lu Li was about to announce good news when he heard Yao Yifei say, "You really found me a good job."
Lu Li: "…"
Judging from Yao Yifei's tone, she was definitely being sarcastic.
Lu Li looked at Yao Yifei in confusion.
"Don't look at me like that. I just came to settle accounts with you now that you're back," Yao Yifei threatened, waving her fist.
"Is that black market very troublesome?" Lu Li asked, frowning.
"Of course it's troublesome. The local tyrants of Qingyun City have been eyeing that black market for a long time. Me going there now is like snatching their cake. You tell me, is it troublesome?" Yao Yifei rolled her eyes at Lu Li.
The local tyrants of Qingyun City?
Lu Li suddenly understood.
As expected, whether it's aristocratic families or wealthy clans, they only care about benefits. As soon as Yu Zhong died, the Jin family set their sights on that big cake of the black market.
"Is it very troublesome?" Lu Li asked worriedly.
Hearing the worry in Lu Li's tone, Yao Yifei nodded in satisfaction, then comforted him, "It's not very troublesome either. The strongest person in the Jin family is just a half-baked Gym Leader-level trainer."
"That's good then," Lu Li breathed a sigh of relief.
"But on a serious note, I didn't expect the black market to be so profitable. Gym Leader Yu truly deserves to be a trainer who worked his way up from the common folk. His methods of making money are simply eye-opening," Yao Yifei sincerely praised.
Don't think that Yu Zhonggang is incompetent just because he made a big mistake.
Yu Zhonggang's mistake can only be considered a mistake in decision-making and a low vision. His strength is definitely top-notch.
"Is the black market's revenue very high?" Wei asked curiously.
"It's not just a matter of being high. The main thing is that the black market is also connected to the dark web. The annual profit is at least in the tens of billions, and the net profit in my hands is at least several hundred million each year," Yao Yifei explained.
Hearing that the black market was connected to the dark web, Wei nodded in understanding.
Among all the dark organizations, the richest is the dark web.
"Then what are you complaining about?" Lu Li retorted speechlessly.
"Of course I like money, but the problem is… I'm not really interested in money anymore," Yao Yifei said, acting like she wasn't interested in money.
At her level, money really didn't mean much.
"Okay."
Lu Li accepted Yao Yifei's humblebrag.
As a Gym Leader, Grand Festival champion, and world superstar, Yao Yifei really wasn't short of money. What she lacked were Pokémon treasures that could enhance her strength.
"Alright, alright, stop complaining. I've prepared something good for you."
"Ta-da…"
Lu Li took out a red ring.
Yao Yifei's expression changed when she saw the ring in Lu Li's hand. Her mind raced as she considered the situation she was about to face.
"Is this a proposal? Should I accept? But he's only 16! If I really accept, will people say I'm an old cow chewing on young grass? What if Ekaterina comes to make trouble for me?
But he's already taken out the ring, so it wouldn't be good to refuse, right? After all, Lu Li doesn't seem to have been in a relationship before. If I agree, would that be his first love?
I heard first love is the most beautiful and the most memorable. Besides, I'm already old, so it's not like I can't…"
Before Yao Yifei could react, Baobao excitedly jumped out.
"Wait! I object!" Baobao said excitedly, looking at Lu Li.
Big brother is mine!!! No one can take him away!
Baobao stared intently at the ring in Lu Li's hand, her terrifying psychic power already showing signs of going out of control.
Seeing Baobao so excited, and thinking she was angry because she didn't receive a gift, Lu Li placed his hand on her little head.
"Don't worry, you'll get one too."
After saying that, Lu Li took out another ring.
Baobao's little face turned red when she saw the ring Lu Li was giving her.
"Ah! This… this…" Baobao looked at the ring in front of her in a panic.
Wei stood up excitedly and loudly stopped her, "No! Baobao is still young."
"Don't worry, you'll get one too."
After putting the ring in Baobao's hand, Lu Li took out another ring and handed it to Wei, who was completely stunned.
In the Kyushu region, can you send out proposal rings in batches?
And all at once to three people, one of whom is her own sister. Wouldn't that be a little bad?
Wei hesitated as she looked at the ring Lu Li handed her. If Lu Li had given it to her alone, she would have accepted it without hesitation.
But now…
Yao Yifei chuckled. At this moment, Yao Yifei also came back to her senses and realized that she had misunderstood Lu Li.
After all, giving a ring doesn't necessarily mean a proposal, although it's easy to be misunderstood.
"Then I'll accept it," Yao Yifei said with a charming smile, then reached out and snatched the ring from Lu Li's hand and put it on her ring finger.
Seeing this, Wei panicked and quickly took the other ring from Lu Li's hand and put it on her hand in the same way.
Seeing her sister and Aunt Yao do this, Baobao didn't dare to hesitate and hurriedly put the ring on her hand in a panic.
Baobao discovered that the ring Lu Li gave was very special and seemed to automatically adapt to everyone's finger size.
"This thing is called a Storage Ring. The effect is similar to a Space Backpack. The difference is that the space inside this ring is 100 cubic meters," Lu Li introduced the special and magical features of the Storage Ring.
"100 cubic meters?" Yao Yifei looked at the ring on her hand in disbelief.
Such a small thing has 100 cubic meters of space inside? What kind of black technology is this?
Even in the Pokémon world, which is full of magic and miracles, this Storage Ring is still quite explosive.
"The main thing is the concealment of this ring. If you use it for smuggling…"
Wei, who came from a black market background, immediately thought of the illegal uses of this Storage Ring.
"Indeed, this ring is extremely concealed. If you don't expose it, you can catch the enemy off guard," Yao Yifei nodded in agreement.
As a woman, and especially a woman who likes to bring a lot of things when she goes out, the Storage Ring that Lu Li made is simply too perfect.
Yao Yifei looked at the ring on her hand with joy.
"With this thing, I can even bring my cosmetics and before when I go out for a wild adventure," Yao Yifei, who had suffered from the hardships of exploring secret realms, didn't think as extreme as Wei.
Baobao's impression of the Storage Ring was just that it was very convenient. After all, a small Space Backpack was enough for her when she went out. Of course, the main reason was because she was still relatively young.
"Just the fact that you know about this thing is enough. Don't expose it, or it will cause unnecessary coveting," Lu Li warned.
Yao Yifei nodded seriously. If the Storage Ring was exposed, the chaebols that produce Space Backpacks would definitely go crazy.
"Did you prepare this thing for Ekaterina?" Yao Yifei asked worriedly.
Lu Li nodded. He did prepare a ring for Ekaterina.
"Then I advise you to think twice. Although the main pillar industry of the Ekaterina family is not Space Backpacks, it also involves space-related businesses," Yao Yifei reminded.
Lu Li said confidently, "Don't worry, Ekaterina won't do that."
When it comes to trust, Ekaterina is definitely at the top tier in his heart.
"Whatever," Yao Yifei gave Lu Li a deep look.
Lu Li is indeed very special. In any aspect, he is completely unlike a normal person.
In terms of breeding, Lu Li can even breed Gracidea flowers, and his orchard is comparable to those of master-level breeders.
The latest novels are available on the 69shu website!
Not to mention the trainer aspect. An Elite-level trainer for two months who can kill opposing trainers when fighting old Gym Leader-level trainers is simply outrageous. It's like outrageousness opening the door for outrageousness, outrageous to the extreme.
Not to mention the Pokémon item aspect. Just relying on the Storage Ring alone, Lu Li can leave his name in the history of Pokémon items.
The most outrageous thing is that Lu Li can also cook well…
In Yao Yifei's opinion, Lu Li is an almost omnipotent man, a monster among monsters.
Compared to Lu Li's own value, Ekaterina is indeed unlikely to give up Lu Li for a pet ring.
In a very good mood, Yao Yifei thanked him, "I'll accept the gift. Thank you."
"Baobao also thanks big brother for the gift. Baobao likes it very, very much," Baobao also echoed.
Thinking of her awkward misunderstanding, Wei lightly punched her arm and said, "I won't say thank you. We're brothers, it's in our hearts."
Lu Li: "…"
"It's good that you like it. By the way, there's also a surprise in your ring," Lu Li said with a smile.
"Surprise?"
Seeing that Lu Li had prepared a surprise for her sister but not for her, Baobao, who was feeling a little unbalanced, stared intently at Wei.
The joy on Yao Yifei's face instantly faded, then she looked at Wei with a fake smile and urged, "Take it out and see. I'm also very curious about what Lu Li said the surprise is."
"I'm your sister!" Wei rolled her eyes at Baobao, the little ingrate, then, under Yao Yifei's terrifying smile, slowly took out the incubator from the ring.
Seeing the incubator in Wei's hand, that bright smile reappeared on Yao Yifei's face.
So it's just a Pokémon egg. Yao Yifei breathed a heavy sigh of relief in her heart.
"This is a Torchic egg. It's quite suitable for you," Lu Li said with a smile.
"What's the aptitude of this egg…" Yao Yifei also looked curiously at the Pokémon egg in Wei's hand.
"Champion-tier."
Lu Li calmly said with a humblebrag.
Hearing this, Yao Yifei's pupils shrank, and then she looked at Lu Li with a face full of disbelief.
"Are you sure you didn't say it wrong?" Yao Yifei asked in surprise.
What is the concept of a Champion-tier Torchic egg? Torchic can evolve twice. If the operation is ideal, Torchic may be able to improve its aptitude by one level each time it evolves.
That is to say, Torchic may have Master aptitude! Even if it's worse, Torchic can at least reach the Champion level.
Two evolutions, it's impossible for Torchic to not have a single aptitude improvement.
Wei also understood this, so she was even more excited than Yao Yifei. Although she already had a Mythical Beast cub, she didn't even know how Kubfu evolved, but Torchic was different.
Wei clearly knew how heaven-defying the elixirs that Lu Li refined were. It's no exaggeration to say that as long as Lu Li continues to supply her with elixirs, Torchic is guaranteed to be at least at the Champion level, and even the probability of entering the realm of the gods is quite high.
Wei didn't know what language to use to express her gratitude at this moment.
Even Yao Yifei didn't know what language to use to describe Lu Li's generosity.
"This guy is really outrageously good to his own people," Yao Yifei thought in her heart.
I wonder if I count as one of his own people now? Hmm! Let's strive to become one of Lu Li's own people. Yao Yifei is also particularly, particularly moved by this level of Pokémon egg.
"Where did you get this egg? The aptitude is too outrageous, right?" Yao Yifei asked in confusion.
It's no exaggeration to say that there aren't many Pokémon eggs with this aptitude in the entire Kyushu region, even fewer than those of Pseudo-Legendary Pokémon.
"I took advantage of the chaos when the Pokémon Center was invaded," Lu Li honestly confessed.
After Lu Li finished speaking, he had been using his divine sense to observe Yao Yifei. It was only after discovering that Yao Yifei didn't show any resistance or disgust that Lu Li breathed a sigh of relief.
After all, what he needed was Yao Yifei, who was of one mind with him, not Gym Leader Yao, who was loyal to the alliance.
Everyone sat back on the sofa, and Lu Li took the opportunity to ask, "Sister Yao, is there any progress on the news about the volcano that I asked you to inquire about?"
"There is a volcano in the small secret realm of Pewter City, and the location there meets your requirements. If it's the real world, then the distance is a bit far," Yao Yifei replied.
Lu Li quickly asked, "What type is the secret realm in Pewter City?"
Yao Yifei said, "It's a small one. The overlord Pokémon of the secret realm is a Champion-level Mawile."
"Is that volcano safe?"
"It's quite safe. The entire secret realm is currently under the jurisdiction of the alliance. There aren't any powerful Pokémon in the volcanic area inside."
"Then it's there!"
Lu Li directly decided.
Lu Li said, "I might have to trouble Sister Yao to accompany me there then."
Thinking that Lu Li was going to the volcano for Charmander, Yao Yifei advised, "What are you going to the volcano for? Charmander doesn't need a volcanic environment to accelerate its growth."
Charizard's secondary attribute is Flying. Yao Yifei has a certain amount of research on how to train Charizard. At least she is stronger than Lu Li in this aspect.
"No, no, no…"
Lu Li quickly shook his head.
"I have more important things to do at that volcano. Remember those few nuts we picked up?"
Yao Yifei raised her eyebrows and also remembered Lu Li's previous far-fetched remarks.
"You really think those few nuts are the dormant forms of Mythical Beast cubs?" Yao Yifei retorted speechlessly.
Hearing the words Mythical Beast cub, Wei also looked at Lu Li curiously. He was too familiar with Mythical Beast cubs, and Wei quite believed Lu Li's remarks.
Wei Ke didn't think Lu Li was talking nonsense.
