Chapter 869 A Love Story Between a Human and a Ghost?

Li Shuwen and Cynthia rode leisurely around God and Town for almost an hour, enjoying their last moments of tenderness.

Li Shuwen finally made up his mind and stopped his bicycle in front of Shirona's house.

Li Shuwen braced himself on the ground with his feet, turned around and looked at Cynthia, saying:

"It's getting late, I think you should go back to sleep. Goodnight."

Cynthia got out of the car, opened the door, and suddenly remembered something. She turned around and said:

How did you know my home is...?

She looked in Li Shuwen's direction, but Li Shuwen had already disappeared.

Only bicycles remained, leaning against the food cart.

The streets were deserted.

Cynthia gasped and quickly released the Flower Rock Monster.

The Flower Rock Monster circled around her once, floated to the end of the street and then floated back, shaking its head at her.

There was nothing there.

Did she run into something dirty?

Cynthia blinked. Was she the heroine of a ghost story, encountering the ghost of her lover from a past life who had come back to see her one last time?

Cynthia shouted immediately, "Hey, you singing and dancing Kommo-o, Li Shuwen, are you still there?"

No one answered.

Cynthia added at the end, "If you really dated me in your past life, then you should hurry up and reincarnate, because we probably have no hope in this life."

"Li Shuwen, in the next life, I, Shirona, will still marry you!"

Li Shuwen hid behind a big tree and listened silently to what Cynthia had to say.

With a smile on his lips, Li Shuwen returned to the Misty Forest as quickly as possible.

"Cynthia, that day will come."

Szczessoyak was still waiting at the entrance, and when he saw him return, he followed behind him.

"If you're going to purgatory, I won't try to stop you. I can only wish you a speedy return."

They walked through the misty path and arrived at Wusi's back garden.

Wu Si stood on the open ground outside the pavilion, with a palm-sized round mirror beside him, its surface as smooth as water.

"Have you thought it through?"

Li Shuwen nodded and said, "I've thought it through."

Wu Si raised his hand.

White light surged from her palm, flowing from her fingers to the ground like a torn curtain.

The earth began to tremble, and cracks spread outwards from beneath her feet.

The crack grew larger and larger, and a purplish-black energy emanated from it, like the breath of an abyss.

Wu Si said, "Jumping down is like entering purgatory. Once you're inside, even I won't be able to get you out."

She handed me the mirror, saying, "If you encounter anything you don't understand after you go downstairs, contact me using this. I can only offer advice from here."

I hope my wisdom can be of help to you.

Li Shuwen took the mirror and put it away, then bowed slightly to Wu Si and said:

"I'm already very grateful for Senior Wu Si's help with these things, so I'll be going now."

Wu Si sighed and said, "Go ahead, I hope you succeed."

Li Shuwen walked to the edge of the crack, and purplish-black energy surged up from below, carrying a scorching and dry aura.

He glanced down at the impenetrable darkness, then leaped off.

My body was swallowed by darkness and I fell downwards at a speed that was faster than normal.

He didn't know how much time had passed—it could have been a moment or a long time—before his feet touched the ground.

He opened his eyes. The sky above purgatory was dark red, and a black sun hung in the air.

There was no light or heat, only a very faint dark purple halo floating around its edge.

Li Shuwen raised an eyebrow and saw someone standing not far away.

Wearing a worn-out long overcoat, with messy hair, he looked at Li Shuwen with his hands in his pockets.

"A newcomer?" The man's voice was hoarse, carrying a coldness toward strangers.

Li Shuwen raised an eyebrow. "Dr. Kongmu, I never expected to see you in Purgatory."

A hint of nostalgia flashed in Dr. Kongmu's eyes, and he became more spirited. "It's been a long time since I've heard anyone call me by this name."

Li Shuwen asked curiously, "Dr. Kongmu, as the official doctor of the Johto region, why are you also in Purgatory?"

Dr. Kongmu waved his hand, "I'm not the Dr. Kongmu you know. As for why I'm in Purgatory, it's very simple."

"In order to hatch a Pokémon with the strongest bloodline through Pokémon cooperation, I conducted many experiments that were not permitted by the League."

"But the more I incubated the eggs, the more I realized that there are limits to incubating them!"

"Therefore, I chose gene editing to combine the best genes from various Pokémon with the Mew genes I obtained through my collaboration with Team Rocket."

"He became what everyone called the mad scientist, constantly creating various genetically fused Pokémon in exchange for new experimental materials and funds."

"It took five years, a full five years!"

"I have finally created the most powerful Pokémon in the world, Chimaira!"

"Chimeramon is indeed powerful, but because it fused with too many genes, its brain was completely destroyed."

"Starting from Team Rocket's base, Chimaira caused destruction all the way, resulting in displacement in the Kanto and Johto regions."

"Ho-Oh, Lugia, Entei, Suicune, Raikou, Moltres, Articuno, Zapdos, and Mew all made an appearance."

"At the cost of sinking most of the Kanto region, we finally destroyed Chimeramon, and I also died in Chimeramon's final dance."

"Then I arrived at this godforsaken place."

Li Shuwen narrowed his eyes. "Doctor, how long have you been here?"

Dr. Kongmu chuckled self-deprecatingly, "Time is meaningless here."

"At first, I would keep track of time, but I haven't kept track of time for the past ten, fifty, or even a hundred years."

"Even when I first appeared in Purgatory, I was obsessed with perfecting the gene synthesis technology of the Chimera Beast, but after I completed it, I completely lost interest."

"From then on, I began to wander across the boundless land of purgatory."

"By the way, do you have any Pokémon? How strong are they? In Purgatory, you can't get by without being strong enough."

"In a sense, we are alive even in purgatory. We need to eat, but even if we don't eat, we won't starve to death."

Li Shuwen nodded. "I see. No wonder this place is called purgatory. In such a harsh environment, there probably isn't any food for normal people, right?"

Dr. Kongmu waved his hand, "No, even in a purgatory filled with death and destruction, there will be areas full of life that will eventually emerge from the extremes."

"These areas are occupied by powerful trainers and Pokémon. For a bite to eat, many people are willing to become servants to those trainers and Pokémon."

Professor Elm's eyes lit up with blue light, and he used his psychic powers to wrap a jet-black Poké Ball around himself and fly toward Li Shuwen.

Li Shuwen reached out and caught it. "A dark sphere? I didn't expect you to have superpowers, Doctor."

Dr. Kongmu wasn't proud at all. "Given enough time, as long as a person hasn't gone mad, they can always acquire some special abilities."

Li Shuwen tossed the dark sphere around. "Could this be the new Chimera Beast you successfully researched, Doctor?"

Professor Elm nodded. "That's right, but it's not called NeoChimeramon, it's Millenniumon!"

Li Shuwen curiously opened the Poké Ball and released Millenniumon.

He wanted to see if Dr. Elm's Millennium Beast was good enough.
