Chapter 279 The Moment Of Acting

"After listening to your description, I seem to understand. It should be the Ghost Pokémon that often teases travelers in the Forest of Confusion!"

"These Ghost Pokémon are extremely unfriendly to humans.

They just tease people at the beginning, but they are likely to attack travelers later.

There was a Trainer who was sent to the Pokémon Center after coming out of the Forest of Confusion.

As a result, the rescue was ineffective and the young life came to an end!"

After hearing the "experience" of Ash and others, Ling Nastina laughed secretly in her heart, calculating how much money she should extort from the three people, while pretending to help them analyze.

She also deliberately exaggerated the aggressiveness and danger of Haunter and Gengar in order to make Ash and the other two more afraid, so as to increase the probability of her Hoothoot being rented out.

How dare she let Haunter and Gengar hurt people!

If it was just a prank and intimidation, the Pokémon Alliance might just regard it as the trick of naughty Ghost Pokémon.

But once a vicious incident occurs in the Forest of Confusion, Officer Jenny and the Alliance will definitely send someone to investigate, regardless of whether anyone calls the police or not.

Her relationship with the Haunters and Gengars cannot withstand scrutiny.

Every day, she only dares to find time to go out secretly to feed the Gengars. As long as you observe her closely for a period of time, you can find out what she does.

So in order to avoid unnecessary trouble, she has repeatedly told the Haunters and Gengars that they can only scare people and must not actively attack passing travelers.

If Officer Jenny spots them, it will be a big problem for her to feed the Haunters and Gengars.

There is no problem in the short term, but if it takes a long time, there is no guarantee that the Haunters and Gengars who are not fed will not do what she expected.

Anyway, she can make money, so why should she choose a more dangerous path?

The gain does not outweigh the loss, and there is no need to do it at all.

It is nothing more than a little performance when the "unlucky guy" finds her here.

As expected, after she said the slightly threatening words, Ash and the other two had "fear" and "worry" on their faces.

"Then Ling Nastina, what should we do?"

"We have urgent matters to attend to. We must pass through the Forest of Confusion as soon as possible and go to Violet City to challenge the gym!"

Ash's acting skills are also very good, pretending to be panicked.

Ling Nastina thought to herself that the fish had taken the bait, and her smile became even bigger.

"Don't worry about this. You can rent a Hoothoot from me to pass through the Forest of Confusion [The special ability of Hoothoot can just break the illusion of Ghost Pokémon!"

"But these Hoothoots are cultivated by me with a lot of effort, and now all the other Hoothoots here have been rented out, leaving only the last one. The rental fee may be a bit expensive. You should consider whether to rent it!"

Ling Nastina finally showed her true colors.

This set has been successful for her over the years.

"Yes, of course. I'm just asking, how much is the rental fee?"

"Ten thousand Pokémon coins, this is the lowest price I can offer!"

Ling Nastina grinned.

She was very shrewd and gave a price that she thought was high enough after looking at the clothes of Ash and the other two.

Ash and the other two cursed him in their hearts as a profiteer. This was already a month's travel expenses for an ordinary Trainer.

And it was the travel expenses level that only Trainers who could get Earl Dervish Pokémon from Alliance could have.

It's good to have 5,000 Pokémon coins in a normal month. Many bug-catching boys and karate boys pay for their own profits and losses!

Ling Nastina is really black-hearted.

After hearing Ling Nastina's offer, Ash and the other two's faces changed and they all looked a little embarrassed.

"Well, please wait a moment, we need to discuss it internally!"

Ash said to Ling Nastina in a slightly "embarrassed" manner.

"It's okay, you guys try to discuss it!"

Ling Nastina tried to make her smile amiable, but her old and gloomy face made her look not amiable at all, instead, she looked like an old witch.

For a single person, it would be very painful to take out 10,000 Pokémon coins at once, but Ash and his group were three people. .....

If they put together, according to her experience, they would definitely be able to take out 10,000 Pokémon coins.

Sure enough, from Ling Nastina's perspective, Ash and the other two gathered together to discuss with Hoothoot for a long time, and finally put together the coins and handed them to her.

Ling Nastina, who received the money, immediately smiled and pointed to the last Hoothoot standing on one leg not far away.

Ash and the other two looked at the Hoothoot in the corner in the direction of her finger.

There was a bit of "hesitation" in their eyes. "But grandma, that Hoothoot doesn't look very reliable, and it doesn't seem to like to listen to people!"

"Why don't you go out with us? After all, you are the owner of this aunt, right?"

When Ling Nastina heard Ash's doubts and the obvious "worry" on his face, she was secretly happy.

It seems that this boy is really scared by my Haunter Gengars, which makes it easier for me to control them.

"In principle, I will definitely not act with the guests who rent Hoothoot!"

Ash can also understand the meaning behind Ling Nastina's words.

In principle, it is not absolutely impossible!

It's just that you have to pay more.

"Well... if Ling Nastina is willing to go and take us out of the Forest of Confusion, we can add another 5,000 Pokémon coins to the original amount!"

Ash said hesitantly, with a look of pain on his face.

It's only 5,000! It's really too little.

Ling Nastina complained in her heart after hearing what Ash said.

But thinking that Ash and the other two had to discuss for a long time before they could even take out 10,000 Pokémon coins. 5,000 Pokémon coins must be the last value they can squeeze out.

Anyway, she has no more Hoothoots to rent out, so it's not bad to accompany her on a trip and earn 5,000.

As the saying goes, it's a b*****d who doesn't take advantage of a bargain.

As for danger, all the Haunters and Gengar in the Forest of Confusion are raised here by her personally, so what danger can there be. .
