The clock hand quietly pointed to around nine o'clock in the morning.

The temperature around me also underwent subtle changes. At first, the refreshing coolness of the early morning lingered around me, but gradually, it receded like the tide, replaced by a gradually rising heat.

This is Guangdong Province, a place famous for its unique climate, where the temperature difference between day and night is often astonishing.

At this moment, Zhang Heng was in the makeshift camp. He gently cradled the Pokémon egg in his arms, sitting cross-legged on the ground. His gaze was gentle and focused as he watched the lively and adorable water fish playing happily nearby.

In this wilderness area full of unknowns and dangers, such a peaceful and tranquil picture seems so out of place, but it gives people an unusually warm and comfortable feeling.

However, Zhang Heng, seemingly calm on the surface, was far from calm on the inside. In fact, his mind had already wandered to the distant past, secretly pondering how to find the Super S-rank Water Scroll mentioned in the system.

Ding ding ding~ Zhang Heng’s satellite communication phone rang.

In the wilderness areas of water systems, because there are no signal base stations, ordinary mobile phone signals are severely restricted. Basically, the use of ordinary mobile phones in wilderness areas is severely restricted, so satellite equipment is used in wilderness areas.

Zhang Heng slowly reached into his trouser pocket and fumbled around until he finally found the small, exquisite device. He pressed it lightly, and the device was connected.

After a burst of electric sound, Yishu's anxious and eager voice came from inside: "Zhang Heng, Zhang Heng, how are things going over there? Are you and the doctor okay? And Swampert, did it give birth successfully? How are those water jumpers doing now? When can you come back? Uncle Luo is not here either, I'm a little nervous."

This series of questions, like a rapid-fire cannon, bombarded Zhang Heng at an extremely fast pace. Perhaps it was because the amount of information was too much, as if his brain's CPU couldn't process so many questions at once.

Zhang Heng used a lighthearted tone to reassure Yishu, saying, "The Doctor and I are safe. Swampert has successfully laid two eggs, and the rest of the group are doing well."

Yishu's nervousness eased, and he breathed a sigh of relief, saying, "I'm glad you're safe. When are you planning to come back?"

Zhang Heng began to play it safe: "The doctor might be planning to return to the Wilderness Research Institute today, but I'm not sure. By the way, Yishu, I have a question for you."

"If you have any questions, just ask."

Zhang Heng asked: "What are the levels of items that Pokémon can carry, and how are they distinguished?!"

Zhang Heng was not very clear about the classification of props and the concept of super S-level. If he had any questions about props, it would be best to ask the heir of the Ou Group, who was responsible for prop production and trading.

Yishu thought for a moment and said, "Normal portable items are divided into four levels: S, A, B, and C. The same item has the same function, but because of the different raw materials, the quality will also vary, and the effect will also have different improvements."

Zhang Heng's mind began to work, verifying some of his conjectures: "Did Sister Chen Xue tell you about the Water Blade bandits we encountered on the mudflats?"

"You told me before, you wanted to know what level of props can be made from the skinned megalodon, right?" Yishu's ideas were still very clear when talking about props.

"Yes."

Yishu had no intention of showing off and spoke directly, "Pokémon with the Rough Skin trait are excellent materials for crafting the Bump Helmet. Currently, only three Pokémon with this trait have been discovered: Megalodon, Quasi-Godland Shark, and Dragonite. Megalodon is slightly smaller, so the items crafted from it are normally only C-rank. However, if the Megalodon has high aptitude, it's possible to craft a B-rank or even A-rank Bump Helmet."

Zhang Heng continued, "So, the differences are based on the item's level and the quality of the raw materials used. Where are the specific values ​​for these differences reflected?"

艺舒回答:“凸凸头盔效果是受到接触类招式攻击时,攻击方损失生命值。而C级道具造成攻击方最大生命值1/10的伤害,B级是1/8,A级是1/6,S级是1/4。”

Yishu then added: "If the props are used in battle for a long time without timely inspection, charging, and maintenance, they may be degraded."

Zhang Heng understood: "I see. By the way, Yishu, are there any categories for Super S-level items?"

Yishu said with slight surprise, "Yes, but this kind of prop has already transcended the ranks of props. It's not manufactured, but the product of the rules of this world, such as Z-pure crystal. Even more terrifying are the tokens bound to certain mythical beasts or regions. For example, the heart-shaped teardrop gem on Qiongdao is also an S-level prop, and its use has not yet been developed."

A heart-shaped teardrop gem? Could it be the Heart Drop? Qiong Island? Never mind, I'll explore it later.

"Thank you, Yishu. I've got the answer I wanted. I forgot to tell you that I've captured my first Pokémon. You better keep working on it. We'll talk when I get back."

Just as Yishu was about to ask him what Pokémon it was, the communication device started to busy. Beep, beep, beep...

"You straight guy, how could that be? He just hung up after asking. I'm so pissed off..."

Zhang Heng learned from Bodangshui that there were other mythical beasts on the lake island. Coupled with the system's notification of the super S-rank item, the Water Hanging Scroll, the true appearance of the mythical beast on the lake island was about to be revealed. He had two evolved mythical beasts, and it was possible that they would become water-type mythical beasts like Bodangshui.

Zhang Heng thought to himself, "This also fits my condition that I can only subdue Water and Dragon attributes. I'll have to go again."

After Zhang Heng made some plans in his mind, he found the doctor who was writing research notes in the camp. Zhang Heng did not disturb the doctor, but just waited quietly for the doctor to finish writing the notes.

Dr. Chen said softly, "Xiao Heng, our mission has failed. I will not restrict you. You can act freely without waiting for my consent."

The older generation has grown up through hard work with their own hands. They know that flowers grown in a greenhouse cannot withstand the test of wind and rain, so it is better to let them do it.

Zhang Heng nodded. "What about you, Doctor?"

The doctor said: "I will guard the temporary camp. The Alliance and the gym leaders of the Bug-type gyms in Goose City will come to support me. I will wait here for the handover and use this place as a transit station."

Zhang Heng muttered to himself: "The owner of the insect department of Goose City?!" Suddenly, like Watson discovering a blind spot, the corner of his mouth twitched, and an annoying child appeared in his mind.
