A water-type trainer who specializes in dragon-type water.

Zhang Heng's eyes narrowed, and he reached into his backpack.

He originally intended to retrieve the Dragon Stone Slab, which contained boundless dragon might, but his fingertips touched a different stone slab that was both warm and cool—the Water Drop Stone Slab!

The moment his fingers touched the water-dripped stone slab, something unexpected happened!

The Water Drop Slab seemed to be moved by his will and the water-type energy from Milotic and Mega Swampert, and suddenly flickered with a faint blue light!

A gentle yet vast energy flowed through my arm, a completely different feeling from the domineering Dragon Slab I had encountered before, which required trials to control!

"Hmm? This water-drip stone slab seems to be more naturally compatible with me?"

Zhang Heng didn't have time to think; Mega Aggron's earthquake was about to erupt! He swiftly pulled the Water Drop Slab from his backpack!

"Om-!!"

The moment the stone slab left the backpack, it seemed to break free from some kind of restraint. A bright blue light shone, and a violent and surging water energy erupted like a flood bursting its banks!

"Forehead…"

Zhang Heng groaned, feeling a heaviness in his head and a significant depletion of his mental energy.

Then, his right hand sank, and the stone slab was about to fly out of his hand. He gritted his teeth and gripped the edge of the stone slab tightly with his five fingers, suppressing it with all his might!

At that very moment, Mega Aggron gathered enough energy in its feet and stomped down hard!

However, the expected scene of the sky collapsing and the shockwave raging did not occur.

Its stomp, imbued with terrifying ground-based energy, felt as if it were stepping not on solid ground, but into an invisible and deep swamp!

All the vibrations and destructive forces were silently absorbed and eliminated by the vast, ocean-like water energy that spread out in an instant.

The ground only rippled gently, without damaging the equipment or even raising a speck of dust.

Mega Boscour's massive body, due to its excessive force, caused it to slowly sink slightly in a state of weightlessness.

Then, an even stronger buoyancy came, which made its incredibly heavy steel body slowly float up!

"Wha...what?!"

The sneer on Lao Liu's face froze instantly, turning into extreme horror!

He watched as the space around Mega Boscodora seemed to be distorted, forming a huge, shimmering "water field" out of thin air in the core area of ​​the entire laboratory!

This scene was somewhat similar to the water columns in the Water Lord Trial that Zhang Heng had experienced before!

"Gurgle...gurgle...gurgle..."

Mega Bossadora, like a drowning person who can't swim, flails its limbs in vain in this strange "water," trying to find a foothold.

It could only float and spin helplessly, as if all its strength had hit nothing but emptiness. The intense feeling of weightlessness and suffocation made it let out a terrified cry.

Rat Six was completely dumbfounded. He couldn't understand what the blue-glowing stone slab in Zhang Heng's hand was, that it could create such an illogical environment out of thin air!

"good chance!"

Zhang Heng's eyes flashed with a sharp light. On his left wrist, a uniquely shaped bracelet—the Z bracelet—had appeared at some point!

Inlaid on it is a reddish-brown Fighting Z-Crystal! He's preparing to unleash Mega Swampert's ultimate attack!

However, Zhang Heng was already panting. He had undergone a double Mega Evolution, activated the Water Drop Slab, and was about to use a Fighting Z-Move.

However, there was someone on the scene who was even faster than him!

"Gurgle—!!!"

A roar filled with fighting spirit rang out from behind! The red figure with flames around its neck, which had been observing from the sidelines all along—the Flame King—moved!

Its massive body suddenly unleashed a terrifying speed completely disproportionate to its size, and the violent Fighting-type energy around it burned like a tangible flame!

It wasn't even significantly affected by the "Water Field" setting. It slammed its legs into the ground and shot into the water prison like a cannonball, directly charging towards the floating and struggling Mega Aggron!

What happened next was the ultimate display of violent aesthetics!

Yanwu King has no fancy skills or dazzling effects; all he has is the most primitive, pure, and honed close combat!

Its fists, elbows, knees, legs... every part of its body has been transformed into the most deadly weapon!

"Bang! Bang! Bang! Bang!"

A series of heavy, muffled thuds, like the beating of drums, rang out incessantly!

Every punch and kick from the Flame King landed squarely on Mega Aggron's proud steel armor!

Straight punch! Hook! Uppercut! Side kick! Roundhouse kick! Elbow strike!

A dazzling and incredibly powerful close-range combo!

Mega Aggron became a giant punching bag, spinning like a top in the water under the attack of Enmusubi, completely powerless to fight back!

Its indestructible steel armor began to groan under the bombardment of the Flame King, with large pieces of metal and shell fragments falling and flying like raindrops!

The ordeal lasted less than ten seconds.

"Om..."

A flash of white light, and Mega Aggron could no longer maintain its evolved form, forced to regress back to its normal form.

Its eyes rolled back, and it completely lost its ability to fight. Zhang Heng also deactivated the Water Drop Slab.

Aggron crashed to the ground like a piece of scrap metal, making a loud noise and creating a shallow crater.

Old Rat Six stared in disbelief, his face almost overflowing with astonishment and fear.

His trump card, the near-championship Mega Aggron, was... was so easily defeated?!

He had no doubt that even without that strange water prison, his Aggron would be no match for this Flame King!

Fear instantly overwhelmed his mind. Without a word, he turned and tried to run away!

But as soon as he turned around, a purplish-black, fat figure appeared silently in front of him like a ghost—it was Shiny Gengar!

It wore that signature, chilling, eerie smile.

"Get out of the way!" In his shock, Rat Six instinctively reached out to push Gengar away.

However, just as his hand touched Gengar's seemingly solid yet ethereal body, another change occurred!

"Uhhhhhh-!!!"

Old Rat Six let out an extremely shrill wail, as if he had been instantly attacked by all kinds of pain and misfortune!

His face instantly turned ashen, his eyes filled with indescribable fear and despair.

His body convulsed violently a few times, then he fell straight backward, landing with a thud, unconscious, his breath quickly fading away.

Zhang Heng shook his head helplessly. The bodies of Ghost-type Pokémon, especially those like Gengar that possess strange spatial power, are not something ordinary humans can easily touch.

Without the Pokémon's permission, you may suffer bad luck and misfortune at best, and at worst your life energy may be drained, or you may even die on the spot!

Rat Lao Liu clearly suffered a severe backlash.

"Hehehe..." Gengar let out a smug laugh, as if it had only done something insignificant.

It drifted to the side of the incapacitated Aggron, and with a few quick gropes with its short claws, it pulled out a round crystal from the gap in the armor on Aggron's neck.

Inside the crystal, there was a beautiful pattern of white and gray feather-like energy intertwined and intertwined—it was Aggron's Mega Stone!

Gengar, as if presenting a treasure, held the precious evolution stone and floated back to Zhang Heng's side, handing it over.

It patted its round chest triumphantly, then pointed to its companions (Swamp Monster, Milotic, Charizard) who were all more or less injured, and finally pointed to Zhang Heng.

His expression seemed to say, "Look! Everyone else is injured, but I'm completely unharmed, and I even captured your most important trophy! Aren't I amazing?"

Zhang Heng was amused by its playful antics, which eased the tension and tension in his heart considerably.

He took the still-warm Super Evolution Stone, and was about to turn around and hand it over to Elder Mo for disposal, since it was a trophy obtained in the research institute.

Old Master Mo seemed to see through his thoughts, waved his hand, and had a complex expression on his face, which included both satisfaction and appreciation.

"No need, Zhang Heng. Since you defeated the powerful enemy with your own strength and seized the spoils, you should accept them."

"This Aggron Stone is quite valuable. If you don't need it yourself, you can check out the Shanghai Alliance Exchange. You should be able to exchange it for some resources or Pokémon items of equal value that you need."

Upon hearing this, Zhang Heng no longer declined and solemnly put away the evolution stone containing great power.

He looked around at the messy laboratory, nodded to King Yanwu, and said, "Thank you for getting me out of this predicament, King Yanwu."

King Yanwu had already sensed Zhang Heng's declining morale, which is why he forced his way in.

After all, it was Zhang Heng's first time using the Water Drop Stone Slab, and he wasn't very skilled at it. His mental energy was still greatly depleted when he was caught off guard.

"Ding……"

The long-awaited system notification sound suddenly rang out, and Zhang Heng's breath hitched.

"Host, the system has sensed the power of the Creator God. To ensure your safety, the system will begin an upgrade..."
