Pokémon: Master System.

Not long after, on a deserted island in the vast sea, Xia Yu's figure appeared.

His gaze fell on the unconscious Andrew, who was now on the verge of death, his brows furrowed, his face pale, his expression tense, and his forehead covered in sweat, clearly suffering from nightmares.

Darkrai's Nightmare ability will constantly damage sleeping enemies.

Xia Yu sneered. He hated being threatened the most.

Andrew's actions just now really angered him.

“Wake him up,” Xia Yu said to Darkrai beside him.

Darkrai nodded, and with a wave of his hand, an invisible dark energy pierced into Andrew's body, causing Andrew to let out a scream and abruptly wake up from his nightmare.

"No!"

Andrew, who had just woken up, realized that it was all a dream. He gasped for breath, looked at Xia Yu, and said, "Don't...don't kill me."

Meeting Xia Yu's gaze, Andrew was genuinely panicked, especially since he was on a deserted island. If Xia Yu killed him and disposed of the body, no one would know.

"I...I'm very rich, please don't kill me."

Xia Yu looked at Andrew in silence, without saying a word.

Seeing that Xia Yu remained silent, Andrew grew increasingly anxious. He had barely escaped the pursuit of the Divine Coffin-3, only to find himself in the jaws of another tiger.

"No...please don't kill me." Andrew's voice revealed a hint of fear: "Please don't kill me. My father is the champion of the British Empire. As long as you let me go, I will agree to any condition you set."

"Hand over all your Money-Gathering Spirit coins, and all the treasures you exchanged in the casino." Xia Yu completely ignored Andrew's words, his voice cold: "Hand over everything of value you have now, and you can live. You can also refuse, and I'll kill you and take it myself. The choice is yours."

"I'll give...I'll give...please don't kill me." Upon hearing that he could live, Andrew immediately took out all his belongings: "I'll give you everything."

…………

Soon after, Xia Yu looked at the large pile of Money-Seeking Spirit coins, the most precious Golden Ghost Coin, and a whole bunch of treasures he had exchanged, and a smile appeared on his face hidden behind his mask.

"Hypnotize him. Darkrai."

"No, you said you'd let me live..."

Andrew had only spoken halfway when he fell into a coma again.

…………

imperial capital.

Inside the study of Zishan Villa.

The lights were slightly dim, and the television was broadcasting news of the sinking of the King's Fleet yesterday.

Xia Yu and Xiao Wanyu sat on the same sofa, while Sylvia sat alone on the opposite sofa, her gaze fixed on Xia Yu, still lost in thought.

She had always believed that Xia Yu's true identity was "Xu Xiu," and she even said many bad things about "Xia Yu" in front of him, which still made her feel a little embarrassed now.

"This is all the information we know about the Divine Coffin." After Xia Yu finished speaking, he looked at Sylvia.

Sylvia is only eighteen years old this year, but in terms of both appearance and figure, she looks like a mature woman in her mid-twenties.

“We don’t know the specifics of Coffin-4 either, but there’s one thing I’m sure of.” Xia Yu paused slightly, “With just your Porygon-B and Rotom, it’s absolutely impossible for you to get revenge on Coffin-4. The difference in strength between you and Coffin-4 is too great.”

Having witnessed the power of the other members of the Divine Coffin today, Sylvia knew that it was absolutely impossible for her to take revenge on her own, especially since she also had to evade the pursuit of the Divine Coffin and complete her father's experiment.

Each of these three things, taken individually, would be very difficult for her to accomplish on her own without support. Therefore, she needed to find someone to help her.

Thinking of this, Sylvia's gaze fell on Xia Yu and Xiao Wanyu.

Xia Yu and Xiao Wanyu are undoubtedly the most suitable people to ask for help.

Both of them possessed immense power, powerful connections, and wealth, and could also provide assistance with her experiments. Sylvia couldn't think of anyone more suitable to ask for help.

"Xia Yu." Thinking of this, Sylvia made a decision, looked at Xia Yu and Xiao Wanyu beside her, and took a deep breath: "I want to ask you for help to avenge me. I am willing to use my father's experimental data as payment. Please help me."

Xia Yu, as expected, was not surprised by Sylvia's request. He had already guessed that Sylvia would ask him for help, but he did not rush to express his opinion. Instead, he showed a thoughtful expression, thought for a moment, and then shook his head: "You should keep your father's experimental data yourself. After all, it is your father's legacy, and I think your father would also like you to complete his experiments by yourself."

Upon hearing Xia Yu's words, not only was Sylvia surprised, but even Xiao Wanyu looked astonished.

How could Xia Yu refuse such a benefit that was offered to him so readily?

Chapter 389 Artificial Pokémon Experiment

Xia Yu had his own reasons for refusing to accept Sylvia's experimental data.

First of all, the experimental data that Sylvia had was actually of no use to Xia Yu.

Although Xia Yu is now famous and hailed as a leading figure in Chinese scientific research, he knows better than anyone that his academic level is at best that of a folk scientist.

It was completely haphazard and relied entirely on luck.

Even if he accepted these experimental data, he could only hand them over to Chi Hanqing to help him with the research. It would be better to let Sylvia continue the research directly.

All Xia Yu needs are the experimental results; the experimental process and reputation are no longer important to him.

Seeing that Xia Yu refused the reward she offered, Sylvia felt a little anxious. She thought that Xia Yu was unwilling to help and unwilling to oppose the Divine Coffin.

This made her even more anxious: "Xia Yu..."

Before Sylvia could speak, Xia Yu waved his hand to interrupt her: "I only need the experimental results. You can carry out the experiment; I won't participate in the attribution. Your father is the father of artificial Pokémon; this is his honor."

Sylvia was slightly taken aback; she hadn't expected Xia Yu to give up such valuable information.

This left Sylvia with mixed feelings. On one hand, she was happy to be able to preserve her father's precious experimental data, but on the other hand, she felt a little sad.

What his father treasured so dearly that it led to his death was, in Xia Yu's eyes, nothing important at all.

Yes, with his current reputation and status, and with his achievements in the scientific research field, any one of his accomplishments surpasses his father's research.

Just then, Xia Yu's voice continued: "I can agree to help you get revenge, but it's better to rely on yourself than others. In the end, this matter can only be handled by you. At most, I can only assist you and ensure your safety. As long as you don't leave the capital, no matter how powerful the Divine Coffin-4 is, it won't dare to cause trouble in the capital."

"Thank you!" Upon hearing Xia Yu's words, Sylvia looked at him with gratitude.

During her three years of wandering, she met many people, many of whom promised to help her take revenge, but those people either wanted the experimental data she had or she herself.

She wasn't stupid; those people were weaker than her, so how could they possibly avenge her?

"Thank you, thank you. Thank you, Xia Yu." Sylvia said thank you three times before stopping.

“Alright, no need to thank me. Settle down for now. Put revenge aside for the time being, go to university to study, learn your professional knowledge, and complete your father's experiment. You can also investigate the true identity of the Divine Coffin-4. You can also ask Wanyu about the lab.” Xia Yu said, “Wanyu, I'll leave these things to you.”

Xiao Wanyu rolled her eyes at Xia Yu after hearing his words: "Don't you have enough trouble already?"

Hearing Xiao Wanyu's words, Xia Yu felt a little embarrassed. He realized that he had really become addicted to ordering Xiao Wanyu around lately.

He used to be somewhat restrained, but as their relationship grew closer, he became increasingly arrogant and inflated.

Just as Xia Yu was about to speak, Xiao Wanyu smiled and said, "Okay, leave these things to me."

"Thank you. Thank you all." Sylvia expressed her gratitude once again.

Xia Yu waved his hand: "What was the content of your father's experiment? I'm just asking out of curiosity. You don't have to tell me anything that involves secrets."

Hearing Xia Yu's question, Sylvia answered without hesitation, "It's still an artificial Pokémon. Porygon is quite strong, but it still doesn't meet Father's requirements." Upon hearing Xia Yu's question, Sylvia revealed the details of the experiment without reservation: "He wants to create a Pokémon comparable to a legendary Pokémon."

"Polygons were not created for combat, but to solve problems in cyberspace and find patches and vulnerabilities. It's already quite impressive that they have such capabilities."

Xia Yu nodded, then a thought struck him, and he said, "Creating a Pokémon that rivals a legendary Pokémon is no easy task. If it's for battle, I actually have some ideas that you can listen to. Of course, whether you adopt them or not is up to you."

“Please go ahead.” Upon hearing Xia Yu’s words, Sylvia took out her laptop from her bag, preparing to write down what Xia Yu had said.

“No need to be so formal.” Xia Yu waved his hand: “If the goal is to create a Pokémon that can rival a legendary Pokémon, then you definitely need the genetic material of a legendary Pokémon. Among all the legendary Pokémon, I suggest you use two legendary Pokémon as models for your experiments.”

"The first one is Arceus. You can imitate Arceus, and different type plates give Arceus different types. You can create a Pokémon similar to Arceus and switch types at any time in battle using items similar to plates. As long as you can find the plates, you can find Arceus's genetic material."

"The second one is Mew. As the progenitor of all Pokémon, Mew is said to possess the genes of all Pokémon. Pokémon created by recombining the genes of Mew would definitely be powerful."

Xia Yu's suggestion was not unfounded, because in the world of Pokémon, there are indeed people who created these two Pokémon based on these two ideas.

The first type of Pokémon is called Type: Null. It can evolve into Silvally, which has the same abilities as Arceus. It can insert different memory discs into the drive on its head and activate the AR system to change its type.

The second type of Pokémon is the well-known Mewtwo. Mewtwo is a Pokémon created by recombining the genes of Mew, and its personality is more brutal.

"Does Arceus still have dreams?" Sylvia nodded, keeping Xia Yu's words in mind.

“If we have the opportunity to obtain the genetic material of Mew or Arceus, we can give it to you for experiments,” Xia Yu said with a smile. “I have high hopes for your father’s experiments; your father is a genius.”

"Thank you, thank you." This was the umpteenth time Sylvia had said thank you.

"Take a good rest these few days. Once the formalities are completed, you can go to university to study," Xia Yu said. "Now there's something I need you to do for me."

"What is it? Just tell me." Having just received Xia Yu's assurance, Sylvia also wanted to do something for Xia Yu to repay his kindness.

"Encrypt my satellite phone. I need to make a call. Anyway, you guys come with me. Remember to wear masks so Andrew doesn't recognize you."

The encrypted call was naturally made to Andrew's father.

Andrew must be released, but before that, every last bit of value must be extracted from him, and he must be extorted for a hefty sum.

This could be a rare opportunity for Xia Yu, an excellent chance to acquire the Aluminum Steel Dragon.

For the champion of the British Empire, obtaining an Aluminum Steel Dragon is a piece of cake, isn't it?
