Chapter 381: The Value of the Thesis
Hikaru was eventually brought to the center of the Pokémon League.
The Pokémon League in Kyoto was undoubtedly the headquarters for Huaxia.
Not to mention the magnificent exterior of the building, the quality of trainers who came here was also much higher than at Pokémon Leagues in other places.
The Pokémon accompanying them were mostly in their third stage, or at Lord level or above.
Hikaru followed the group into a bright office deep inside the building.
The moment he walked into the room, Hikaru felt several pairs of eyes fixed intently on him.
Among them.
Luo Qingfeng spoke first, "Aren't you going to explain?"
None of them were fools.
After hearing Hikaru repeatedly ask her to find that type of secret treasure that shimmered with iridescent colors, Luo Qingfeng knew this stone was definitely not ordinary.
And as an expert in the field of evolution,
She couldn't discover the mysteries hidden within it...
So, she consulted her teacher, who was the middle-aged man with thick eyebrows and big eyes following behind.
Mu Xiucheng.
Huaxia's most famous expert in Pokémon evolution.
Discoveries such as Eevee's five evolutions were all made by him.
Also, some Pokémon's trade evolutions and certain Pokémon requiring specific secret treasures to evolve!
In certain special magnetic field energies, some Pokémon could evolve if their own energy level was met!
Among the most famous were the evolution of the Ghost-type Pokémon Gengar and "Metal Coat can promote the evolution of certain Pokémon."
In Eevee's evolution research, after Hikaru provided the emotion-flow evolution method.
The research bottleneck was broken, and Eevee's evolution experiments were quickly completed.
Later, add to that Magikarp evolving into the Gyarados species.
Mu Xiucheng had also heard Hikaru's name from Luo Qingfeng.
It was precisely these things,
That made him develop a strong interest in this young man under eighteen.
Looking at the scrutinizing gazes around him, Hikaru knew very well that if he couldn't say something today, he definitely wouldn't be leaving easily~
So, he recounted the explanation he had prepared long ago.
"The temporary evolution after Lucario's evolution, which I call Mega Evolution, I discovered it on an island at sea."
"It was also when I formed a pact with Larvitar. A group of pirates stole the food-type secret treasure of the Tyranitar in that secret realm. I drove off the pirates and then found this kind of stone inside the secret treasure..."
Hikaru lied without batting an eye or his heart skipping a beat.
He said he used his Aura power to sense a strange energy in this stone.
Then he carried it with him.
Afterward, he fought with the Tyranitar in the secret realm. At that time, Charizard's strength was only around peak Gym level, so it couldn't defeat Tyranitar at all.
At the critical moment,
The stone glowed, and then Charizard "Mega Evolved."
Then he became curious and went to search for and research similar secret treasures.
The whole explanation was logical and well-founded.
The big shots around listened, stunned.
After a long while, Ye Xuan's thick brows furrowed slightly, "Why does it feel like you're telling a story, kid?"
This whole elaborate tale.
He roughly knew a bit about what happened to Hikaru at sea through Ye Yangyang.
Encountering pirates, capturing Larvitar, then boarding a cruise ship, encountering Team Rocket Executive Athena and the sea bandit Shui Rouhua.
Finally, having the Prince of the Seas summon Kyogre!
It did seem like a story...
Luo Qingfeng became slightly excited, "So you figured it out?"
Hikaru smiled modestly, "Some small achievements, some small achievements..."
"Later, in my discoveries, it wasn't just Charizard that could undergo such Mega Evolution; some other Pokémon can also Mega Evolve."
"For example, Lucario, Tyranitar, Latias, Gardevoir..."
"These Pokémon can actually all Mega Evolve."
"I have recorded the corresponding data and the required Mega Stones, and have also written a first draft. I originally planned to publish it after the Youth League...."
Facing these big shots.
Hikaru spoke with eloquent confidence.
Mainly because among these people, they were all acquaintances.
There were two others, whom he wasn't familiar with, but considering they were with Lance (Ye Du) and Ye Xuan, they likely weren't simple figures either.
"Among these, the most important factor involved is still emotion! It's remarkably similar to the process of Eevee evolving into Sylveon or Umbreon!"
"That is, bonds!"
"The only difference is that between the trainer and Pokémon, the assistance of a Key Stone and a Mega Stone is needed!"
His voice slowly faded.
Complete silence fell around them.
Everyone looked at Hikaru in astonishment. He had spoken so casually about these things.
But the impact of this Mega Evolution was enough to change Huaxia's influence on the international stage...
Mu Xiucheng, who had been silent all along, asked, "Young friend, may I see your first draft and data?"
The old man over there also chuckled and said, "It sounds very impressive, Mega Evolution."
Hikaru glanced at the two of them.
Luo Qingfeng and Lance (Ye Du) introduced them one after another.
"This is Professor Mu Xiucheng, who has made enormous contributions to Huaxia in the field of Pokémon evolution. He was also my supervisor during my postgraduate studies." (Implicitly, the "Professor Oak" figure of Huaxia).
"This is the Chairman of the Huaxia Pokémon League—Gong Hui."
Hearing this, Hikaru's heart skipped a beat.
Well, now.
They were indeed all big shots.
He quickly greeted them.
Then he took out his phone, "As for the data and such, I used Aura power to sense emotions and plotted them into a wave chart. It might be a bit different from laboratory data."
"I've already sent it to the Professor..."
Although he knew this thesis was very important, when Huaxia needed it, Hikaru still released it without hesitation.
The waters of Mega Evolution ran too deep.
He himself had now collected so many Key Stones and Mega Stones.
Keeping them served no purpose.
It was better to hand them over to the country and let them worry about it.
The two researchers, after sharing it, immediately began to read it as if they had found a priceless treasure.
Halfway through, Luo Qingfeng's brow furrowed.
Just as Hikaru had said,
Much of the data above was written out by Hikaru alone in vernacular Chinese and needed to be re-measured in a laboratory.
However, with this data, their experiments would also gain considerable convenience.
Mainly, this first draft could help them clarify their direction.
Putting down her phone, Luo Qingfeng raised an eyebrow, "So, you saw the value of this thesis, and that's why you collected so many evolution stones?"
It was obvious.
After this thesis was published, the price of both types of evolution stones would experience a terrifying surge.
A set of evolution stones.
Their acquisition price was around fifty thousand.
And now...
The price would increase by at least a hundredfold...
"Heh heh..."
