Chapter 495 I have an agreement with the Queen...
"Phew, we got home safely."
After several busy days, Lin Shi finally returned to Taoxian City. Su Qimeng naturally had not returned yet. In fact, since they entered the secret realm, even their communications had been almost cut off.
He summoned the elves and let them move freely, and Lin Shi himself lay down on the sofa.
宣！
"Oh yeah, it's a good time to sort out the newly acquired Mega Evolution Stones."
As he spoke, Lin Shi stretched out his hand, the super magic ring grew bigger, and a box instantly appeared in his hand.
Of the five newly obtained Mega Evolution Stones, except for the Kairos Evolution Stone that has already been obtained, the other four correspond to new Pokémon, namely Heracross, Crawler, Tanabata, Lizard King and Beedrill.
Including these, Lin Shi already has a total of eleven Mega Evolution Stones, including two Kairos Mega Evolution Stones, and he also has Mega Evolution Stones for the Pokémons he currently owns, namely, Dragonite and Gyarados.
As for whether or not to capture a few other elves that can super evolve, Lin Shi is still considering it. He already has a lot of elves, and their qualifications are excellent. He thinks he should focus on cultivating them.
And even if he wants to tame them, he will probably only choose those elves that can be improved significantly. After all, from a certain perspective, not all elves are suitable for super evolution.
"Huh, not bad, put it away."
Lin Shixi put the box back to its sealed place with a smile on his face. With these gains, he felt more confident.
"Hehe...Lin Shi, what are you so happy about?"
Just when he was happy, a familiar voice sounded in Lin Shi's heart. He was stunned at first, then reacted quickly.
"Your Majesty? Are you back?"
As soon as Lin Shi finished speaking, a dark mist filled the air in the villa. Black mist condensed in the air, and the figure of Neftina gradually emerged.
"Hehe... How have you been lately, Xiaolinzi?"
Neftina is in good condition. Although she still hasn't broken through lv90 to reach the champion level, the ghost aura on her body has become stronger, and it seems that her strength has improved.
"Not bad." Lin Shi nodded with a smile.
"I wonder what the Queen is doing back this time? Do you need my help?"
Lin Shi had long known that Neftina must have been doing something for such a long time.
Moreover, it has mentioned more than once that it may need Lin Shi's help. This time it came back suddenly and silently, it is very likely that it has encountered his bottleneck and needs his help.
"Smart, worthy of being my first counselor."
Neftina said this in a teachable and proud tone.
"So what exactly is going on? Don't keep us in suspense. Your Majesty, you can tell us now."
Lin Shi spread his hands and asked. He had been curious about Neftina for a long time.
"Of course. Actually, I have been doing one thing since the seal was broken."
"That is... to seek an opportunity to break through to the champion level!"
Neftina responded frankly, and Lin Shi took a breath. Although he had expected it, he still felt very excited.
As we all know, it is increasingly difficult for elves to upgrade to higher levels. Many elves will even be stuck at their current level for a long time and unable to upgrade even in an environment with sufficient resources due to insufficient qualifications.
Similarly, the gap between elves at each level becomes larger as time goes by, and this situation becomes more obvious after the King level.
The extremely high level champion level is a completely different realm from the past. For every elf, no matter how talented they are, it is extremely difficult to break through the level 90 barrier.
Therefore, champion-level elves are exceptionally powerful. Although level 89 and level 90 elves are only one level apart, the difference in strength is like heaven and earth and cannot be compared at all.
The same is true for levels after level 90. Each level is extremely difficult, and the improvement in strength is also extremely obvious. This is a level that Lin Shi has not yet encountered.
"Is Her Majesty the Queen about to break through to the champion level?"
Lin Shi asked in surprise. This was certainly a good thing. Once Neftina successfully advanced, his safety would be more guaranteed.
"Hey, well... this..."
Neftina smiled embarrassedly, then suddenly stopped laughing and her tone became helpless.
"It's not that easy!"
"This is harder than I thought it would be. It's not easy at all."
"However, it's not like I haven't gained anything in the past. During this time, I've basically been wandering in the spirit world, looking for opportunities that will allow me to advance."
Neftina's figure slowly floated down and landed on the sofa.
"Have you found the opportunity now?" Lin Shi understood.
"Bingo, correct answer!" Neftina continued.
"I found a strange building in the spirit world. Deep inside it, I sensed a pure and rich ghost energy. I have a feeling that as long as I absorb it, I will be able to break through to the champion level."
"Buildings? The spirit world?"
Can these two words be combined?
Shouldn't the spirit world be a place of complete desolation? Apart from ghost-type elves, nothing else should be able to survive there.
"Yes, you heard it right. It is a building. It is an ancient castle. But I have detected it and it doesn't feel like it was built by you humans. Hmm... It's very strange."
Neftina glanced at Lin Shi and spoke slowly.
"If it's not a human, could it be a ghost?" Lin Shi was a little confused.
"Speaking of which, Queen, you have been in the spirit world for so long. Have you ever seen a ghost there?"
Lin Shi asked curiously. There has always been a legend about the spirit world, saying that it is the place where humans and elves go after death.
"Ghost? No, except for ghost-type elves, I have never seen other creatures...well, dead things...well, anything that can move on its own."
"I'm not talking about something built by humans, and it's certainly not something you're talking about."
"I just feel that its style is very different from what I remember, whether it's the desert kingdom I live in or your modern architectural style. Maybe it's an elf building."
Neftina continued to explain.
"Elves?"
Lin Shi raised his eyebrows. This was indeed possible. After all, the elves were very powerful. He had even seen elves in anime that could rub rockets with their bare hands...
"Okay, don't dwell on this. I don't care where it came from. I just know that it contains what I need."
"That's right." Lin Shi touched his chin and nodded.
"Then what does the Queen want me to do for you?"
"This one……"
Neftina's tone was a little hesitant, and then she approached Lin cautiously and asked tentatively in a low voice:
"Um, Lin Shi... do you want to go to the spirit world?"
"what?"
