Pokémon: World of Wonder

Chapter 303 Soul Resurrection Tower

Holding the guide map he had pulled out from the door, Jiang Ye walked in the smoke-filled corridor and sniffed the smell in the smoke.

A strong spice smell stimulated Jiang Ye's nostrils. It should be the smoke from some kind of candles and incense, which is slightly toxic overall.

But if you want to poison a person, they would have to stay in this environment 24 hours a day for a year before symptoms of poisoning would appear.

However, Jiang Ye discovered that after entering the corridor, his visibility was only about 1.5 meters. Anything further away was filled with smoke and he couldn't see clearly.

Ok?

Jiang Ye subconsciously looked to the side and saw an ordinary-looking Pokémon tombstone standing quietly on the wall of the corridor.

The design of the Pokémon tombstone is very simple. It is just a small tombstone. The Pokémon's ashes are placed in the square space below the tombstone. There are also photos and names of the Pokémon when they were alive on the tombstone.

Looking at the smiling little boar in the photo, Jiang Ye subconsciously called out his name, "Xiao You?"

"Woof woof! (I'm here!)"

Hearing the sound of a bark in his ear, Jiang Ye looked around. Was he hallucinating? No matter what, the most important thing was to go to the third floor to get the shopping voucher.

Thinking of this, Jiang Ye took a step and disappeared into the misty corridor.

Suddenly, in the silent corridor, a furry dog ​​head jumped out from the tombstone of a Pokémon named Xiaoyou, and lifted up Xiaoyou's tombstone and put it on its head.

Its limbs appear to be furry and covered in thick hair, but the tombstone on its head and the limbs that are nothing but white bones prove that this is not a normal Pokémon.

The newly born creature looked around and was about to run towards Jiang Ye when a staff member in a Taoist robe stopped it and said, "Xiaoyou, he is not your master. Follow me."

As he spoke, the Taoist priest rummaged through his wide sleeves, took out a piece of talisman paper emitting a faint purple light, and gently handed it out. The talisman paper floated gently and finally stuck to the tombstone that he cherished most.

A little panicked, it was about to shake its head to get rid of the talisman paper, but it found a soft and warm force surging out of it and finally merged into the tombstone. It was so comfortable!

The Tomb Dog lay on the ground in comfort, feeling the warmth that made the dog comfortable. Until the warmth slowly dissipated, the Tomb Dog got up and walked to the Taoist priest, following him into the smoke.

Relying on the guidance map given at the entrance of the tower, Jiang Ye still took some effort to find the entrance to the second floor. The second floor was similar to what Jiang Ye had seen at the entrance of the tower before.

There was only a middle-aged Taoist priest sitting cross-legged next to the staircase entrance, but the difference was that there was a longbow placed on a table next to the old Taoist priest.

Jiang Ye walked to the dim bow platform and took a look. Sure enough, he saw a board above the bow platform. It read: Those with full bows can go up to the second floor alone without the accompaniment of staff.

Jiang Ye looked at the price list of the staff next to him again. First floor: free, second floor: 500 Alliance Coins/hour, third floor: 800 Alliance Coins/hour, fourth floor: 1000 Alliance Coins/hour, fifth floor: 1200 Alliance Coins/hour,

Jiang Ye's cheek twitched. Oh my god, I was wondering how such a big tower could make a profit without any charging items. It turns out they are waiting here.

But Jiang Ye didn't need that. He stepped forward and bowed. Jiang Ye asked, "Master, as long as I draw my bow to its full length, you will let me pass, right?"

The middle-aged Taoist priest nodded slowly. "Yes, young man, I don't mean to stop you. It's just that the higher you go, the more vicious those guys will be, relying on the smoke that keeps rising. If you don't have a certain level of strength, we will stop them here."

The middle-aged Taoist pointed to a place not far away and said, "You should be able to vaguely see that the group of people over there are also young trainers like you. They all came here to buy shopping vouchers."

"However, their personal strength is too weak, and they are reluctant to spend money, so they can only ask the people who come here to do the shopping for them."

"Hehe, the Taoist priest is right. We are really short of money, so we had to come up with this idea. Little brother, do you want to come with us? We will pool our money and let one of us go up to buy it for us."

Jiang Ye glanced at the middle-aged uncle who had run over from the side and was waiting silently when the middle-aged Taoist priest started to explain, "No need."

He grabbed the bow on the bow stand and before he could draw the bow, the middle-aged man reminded him, "Little brother, don't act on impulse. It takes 450 kilograms to draw the bow fully."

Under the shocked gaze of the middle-aged man, Jiang Ye lightly hooked the bowstring with his index finger, and easily pulled the bow into a full moon shape as if he was just pulling it casually.

Putting the longbow back, Jiang Ye bowed to the Taoist priest and said, "Master, I will go up first."

The Taoist priest looked at Jiang Ye in surprise and nodded slightly, "Young man, be careful on your journey."

Watching Jiang Ye disappear in the smoke staircase, the middle-aged uncle sighed, "Master, is this what they call a hero born young? Trainer, if you can't even manage yourself, do you have the nerve to call yourself a trainer?"

"People like me have been traveling for more than ten years, and only now have I realized that I only ask my Pokémon to become stronger. I have not made any progress except in commanding, and I am getting fatter and fatter."

"It's fine for participating in competitions, but once we're fighting in the wild, we're simply a burden."

The middle-aged Taoist priest still sat cross-legged without moving. He glanced at his peers who were full of emotion and said a few words to comfort them. "The road ahead is known, but life is not over yet. Whether you will achieve great success late or die in depression, everything is still unknown."

On the second floor, Jiang Ye came out of the stairs leading to the second floor, but he stepped on empty air and staggered.

"Hehehe~"

Jiang Ye frowned. Is it an illusion?

The visual range became lower and lower, and only about 30 centimeters in front of the eyes could still see things clearly. Looking outside, there was almost only thick smoke. Jiang Ye held onto the wall and noticed the warning sign posted on it.

This is not a combat location! Releasing Pokémon for combat will be severely punished! Those who damage structures such as tombstones and towers will be compensated with amounts ranging from 10 to 100 million!

…………

It goes without saying that some people were probably fed up with the pranks played by those ghost-type Pokémon and released their Pokémon to cause a ruckus.

Damn, this is a bit of a headache. Jiang Ye opened the guide map and took a look. In order to maximize the use of the space inside the tower, the routes inside the tower were designed to be winding, like a maze.

After taking two steps forward, a rumbling sound was heard, as if something was sliding in the air. Jiang Ye glanced and saw a huge pendulum coming fiercely from his right side.

Jiang Ye didn't even blink as he watched the pendulum fly towards him.
