Chapter 460: Huge Keystone
"Several, hundreds of tons? What? Corn cobs?"
Cao Wei's brain shrank for a moment, unable to imagine how this number was connected to something like a key stone.
Whether it's animation, comics, or other game settings, the characters that can use mega evolution have only one key stone at most.
Of course, Zfuki Daigo doesn’t count. That guy is always trying to give warmth to others, and he is so poor that he only has money left.
But to be honest, even for Daigo Tsuchiya, he usually only has one key stone in his hand. This is simply because this thing is too rare and it is something that you can only come across by chance.
Aside from the high price, the key stone itself is also unique.
Usually, if a trainer can mega evolve, then it can be confirmed that the trainer's strength has reached a superior level.
The first key stone can greatly improve the trainer's strength, so what is the function of the second key stone?
Nothing at all.
In this case, collecting the second keystone is a complete waste of manpower, material resources, and financial resources, and may even cut off other people's way out. It is a perfect way to harm others without benefiting yourself.
And now, Master Guo told Cao Wei that they have several hundred tons...
Great, the keystones are slow to sell, right? You rich people really know how to have fun!
As if sensing Cao Wei's strangeness, Guo Wenxia quickly said, "Brother Cao Wei, please don't misunderstand me. We dare not sell key stones casually."
"It's just that your strength has reached the limit of being able to touch this kind of power, otherwise I would not give you such a dangerous thing."
That’s right, in Donghuang, in order to obtain the Key Stone, in addition to requiring strong funds and special channels, it is also necessary to be a strong trainer.
This further intensified Cao Wei's curiosity about the number of key stones in the Jianglong Gym. He wanted to know what kind of place it was that could have the confidence to say that there were hundreds of tons of key stones.
"Come with me." Guo Wenxia said as he led Cao Wei to the back mountain of Jianglong Dojo.
"In fact... mega evolution is a power without a future, and a burden we cannot get rid of."
"Burden?" Cao Wei repeated in confusion.
Guo Wenxia did not reply, but continued: "If Gigantamax and Z-Moves rely on a strong energy field to form a force, then Mega Evolution is the extreme state that is drawn out by using the trainer and Pokémon as the basis."
"Using the Key Stone in your hand to resonate with your Pokémon's Mega Stone, you can make your Pokémon Mega Evolve. This is the basic fighting method for us mega evolution users."
"I used to think that this power was a powerful force within our bodies. For this reason, Flame Chicken and I were very proud and thought that we had great potential. But the truth is the exact opposite."
"Yin Zhiping has discovered in recent years that except for a few trainers who can perfectly unleash the most perfect power of mega evolution, the rest of the trainers have encountered different situations."
"Oh? Different situations?" Cao Wei said puzzledly.
"That is, mega evolution, to a certain extent, does not guide Pokémon to release their own power, but suppresses the potential of Pokémon in an extremely cruel way."
Although it is the most well-known, popular, and widely discussed fighting method in Pokémon, the limitations of mega evolution are obvious.
It can only provide bonuses to a small number of Pokémon. Not only can it not be as evenly distributed as other fighting methods, some of them even weaken the already powerful Pokémon.
Mega Land Shark: "Tsk~"
There are cases where a Dragonite becomes uncontrollable after undergoing mega evolution, madly destroying everything, even attacking its own trainer.
Or like the giant mantis, after super evolution, due to its own excessive energy, its appearance will be damaged, thus shortening its lifespan.
Even a Pokémon like Lucario, which attaches great importance to loyalty and friendship, will become ruthless after mega evolution, and driven by its fighting instinct, it will not stop until it defeats the enemy.
We can think of these settings as the shameless behavior of the official not to acknowledge the money after receiving it, and then sell the mega evolution. But these factors do exist.
This is also the reason why Master Guo believes that mega evolution has no future.
"Although I'm not sure if it's right to show you this, I think you deserve to know this."
When they arrived at an iron gate, Master Guo took out an ID card and stuck it to the identification system on the iron gate. The iron gate opened and a huge shadow suddenly covered Cao Wei's body.
"This is what I want to show you. It is also what our Jianglong Dojo has guarded for generations."
Following the gaze of Master Guo, a huge pink crystal appeared in front of Cao Wei. There was a circle of holes in the center of the crystal and a circle of golden halo on the outside.
"This is—a sundial!"
The huge pink crystal is said to be a huge crystal that fell from outer space and has a great connection with mega evolution.
It is said that every day in the E-Chu region, when the time reaches 8 pm, the rings on the sundial will start to rotate one by one, and flashes will begin to fall from the sky. The flashes will stop after 10 minutes, and the rotation of the sundial itself will also stop after 9 pm.
Guo Wenxia walked forward and stroked the huge sundial, then shouted loudly, swung his strong arms and forcibly picked out a piece of crystal from it.
"Eh? Is this thing for playing with?" Cao Wei was a little overwhelmed by this action, but then he understood the meaning of Guo Wenxia's action.
The pink crystal that was picked off soon began to fade, and the pink energy along with the rugged surface shrank towards the center, causing the entire pink crystal to finally condense into a spherical translucent crystal the size of a marble.
The only difference from before is that this spherical crystal has a circle of colorful stripes in the center.
This is the Key Stone that is controlled by the trainer during Mega Evolution.
"This... is actually a key stone?!" Cao Wei said in surprise.
At this time, he also understood what Master Guo meant by the hundreds of tons of key stones.
Judging from the fact that the small piece of crystal just now was able to condense into a key stone, this mountain-like crystal is estimated to be able to condense countless key stones.
This is just like how the Taiyuan Steel Plant produced enough ballpoint pens for 14 years with just one furnace. If that was accomplished, the mega evolution would have no value.
"The keystone has been deregistered, help us!"
