The necromancer of the Pokémon world

Chapter 57 The Revolutionary Mentor of the Feathered Owl

Lin Ye couldn't understand what Touyuxiao mumbled, so he had to call his personal translator, Xue Yaonu, for help to communicate smoothly.

"Hey, you're from outside! You should know what the situation is like outside, right? Are there really a lot of poor people and Pokémon being harmed?"

"What? You have no idea what's going on outside, and you were just yelling about overthrowing the alliance!"

"Hehe~, it's because my parents are very strict. They say my personality is a bit extreme, and they won't let me go on long trips until I reach my final evolutionary form."

Although I can fly, I've only ever encountered Pokémon living in protected areas outside the valley, or seen tourists and trainers entering the protected areas from afar!

"So what was your previous assessment of the league?"

"I heard it all from the Pokémon in the protected area!" Touhou said with an embarrassed smile.

"Fine, fine~ So you haven't even understood the current situation of the alliance before you started criticizing, and you still want to overthrow the alliance!"

While I don't think the current league is particularly good, it's truly a bit unfair in this matter!

"There's really no way around it. The main problem is that the Earth Platform Turtle and the others keep saying that I'll cause trouble if I go out, so they're keeping an eye on me and won't let me leave."

"Of course! You've been clamoring to overthrow the alliance. If you actually go out and do something, you'll become a rebel."

"No, no! Failure is called a rebellion, success is called a revolution!!!"

Moreover, while I admit I lack practical experience and observation, my passion for revolution and my yearning for justice are genuine.

"My child, you still lack understanding; you're too naive and young!"

Is the revolution you speak of truly a path forged through repeated reflection, and not merely a fleeting, impulsive fantasy?

"What's the difference?"

The owl tilted its head, its narrowed eyes revealing a hint of thought and doubt.

"Of course! Revolution is not about romance or a dinner party!"

That would require enduring hardship and bloodshed; without the support of comrades who shared a common hatred of the enemy and the vast majority of the people, success would have been absolutely impossible.

"Then... how can I gain their support?"

"Good question~ The reason why Zoroark and its trainers were able to overthrow the dynasty was because feudal rule hindered the development of productivity and went against the wishes of most people at the time."

It was precisely because Zoroark and his colleagues astutely recognized this, and then put in the effort, that they were able to advance the course of history.

And you, knowing nothing of people's current pain points and completely clueless about future development, how can you possibly unite people's hearts, let alone drive historical progress?

After hearing what Lin Ye said, Tou Yuxiao's naturally narrow eyes opened slightly, which was unprecedented, showing how much it had affected his mind.

"Oh my gosh~, after hearing what you said, I felt like I'd been struck by lightning, my mind had suddenly cleared up, my brain was pounding, and my sphincter was tightening up~~"

"If you don't know idioms, you can actually use fewer of them..."

"No! That's not important! What's important is that I've made my decision. From today onwards, you, Mr. Lin Ye, will be my revolutionary mentor and guide in Touyuxiao!"

From now on, I'll simply follow you and let you lead me in the revolution! Mentor Lin Ye!

"What?! You want to come with me?! Do you think I already have Gastly and Saber, these two 'hidden dragons and phoenixes', and now I'm going to add another 'fierce general' to my arsenal?!"

This is bad! Why do I suddenly have this feeling that we're bound to become the Alliance's target sooner or later?!

After making this important life-altering decision, the Winged Owl couldn't wait to run over to the Earth Tortoise and start chattering away.

But after hearing this, the Earth-Turtle's friendly smile vanished, and it shook its head very seriously, rejecting the Feathered Owl's idea.

After being translated by the Snow Fairy, Lin Ye learned that the Earth Platform Turtle had raised the Feathered Owl on its back since it was a cub, treating it as its own.

The bird is still too immature and has extreme ideas, so it's really worried about it.

Seeing this, Lin Ye was not in a hurry. Although Decidueye, the evolved form of Togepi, was a Pokémon he really wanted, he wasn't in a rush.

He comforted the owl, saying that he would often bring Zorua to learn in the future, and that following him could be discussed in the long run, gradually gaining the consent of the tortoise.

Two hours later, Zorua's learning finally ended, and it immediately showed its results to Lin Ye, discovering that its ability to change had indeed become much stronger.

Although it cannot yet achieve the complete realism of Zoroark, it has begun to capture its essence.

For example, it can fly quite well after transforming into a Winged Owl, or its power can be slightly increased when using the Dark-attribute "Knock Down" after transforming into the Dark-attribute Zoroa form.

Seeing this, Lin Ye had a flash of inspiration and said, "Hey~, since you can transform into a Winged Owl to fly, why not transform into a Skarmory and see if you can take me directly back?"

"Gurgle~~"

This concerns Lin Ye's safety, so the little fox couldn't help but worry and hesitated a bit!

"Gah~~"

Zoroark immediately stepped forward to encourage it, saying that with its current development of "illusion," it could not fly as well as a real armored bird, but it was enough to carry one!

Encouraged by his senior, the little fox mustered up some courage and transformed into the steel-armored raptor he had seen before—the armored bird!

Lin Ye sat down and found that although the texture was not quite the same as real steel feathers, it was hard enough, and he estimated that it was about 70% similar.

The "Armored Bird" began to spread its wings and take off. Because it was carrying Lin Ye, it flew very carefully and hardly dared to leave the ground more than three meters away.

As it gradually got used to the feeling, Lin Ye kept encouraging it, and the "Armored Bird" eventually flew over a hundred meters high, and its speed became faster and faster, and its flight became more and more stable.

By the time it landed outside the gate of Qiao Yijing's villa, this imposter "armored bird" was almost indistinguishable from a real one.

Lin Ye stretched and planned to go back and take a good shower before resting, but his mental energy detected a sneaky figure.

The figure was hiding in the flower bushes by the door, exuding a faint ghostly aura, peeking and looking this way. It was Night Patrol Spirit, one of the three silly ghost brothers.

Upon seeing that it was Lin Ye returning, the Night Patrol Spirit no longer hid and floated eagerly to Lin Ye's side:

"Boss! Boss! Our detective has brought back the latest news: the batch of Pokémon that Lilycove City was preparing for the new recruits has been approved ahead of schedule!"

The Poison Blade Society has also received the news and plans to act ahead of schedule, starting tomorrow morning on the only road they can pass through on the western suburbs highway.

"The Poison Blade Society members have already gone to scout the location, and we also have our men keeping an eye on things there!"
