: Major Level Up, Target Locked

Chapter 19: Major Level Up, Target Locked

With an advantage in all aspects of level, even when facing a group, it can be dealt with easily.

Having experienced many such battles, especially this one, Xia Mu has gained a deeper understanding of the suppressive power brought about by the combined effects of level suppression and attribute suppression.

Of course, the reason is also because the effort value is maxed out.

Although Growlithe and Riolu are both physical attackers, they can only attack one target at a time.

However, Growlithe can basically take down a Beedrill in one move, while Riolu, although a bit more difficult, can still easily defeat Beedrill.

There's also Gyarados, which, despite being the lowest level, can still win against Beedrill, which is also around level 20, thanks to its size and base stats advantage.

Moreover, there's Xia Mu's command.

Overall, the bee is just too brittle.

In just three minutes, more than twenty bee bees collapsed and could not get up due to their serious injuries.

Because Growlithe's level is high, it hasn't leveled up even though it has gained a lot of experience points.

Riolu has leveled up by 1, reaching level 30.

Gyarados leveled up by 2, reaching level 25.

This is because most of these twenty-odd Beedrill are around level 20, and the experience points they provide are a lot for Riolu and Gyarados.

Is this the end?

Do not!

Before Xia Mu could take a closer look at the personalities of the twenty-odd Beedrills, he heard a continuous buzzing sound echoing through the forest.

Before long, a considerable number of Beedrills swarmed in from all directions, which meant that the Beedrill family's nest had truly been destroyed.

One wave ends, and another begins.

Fortunately, a lot of preparations were made last night, and in order to better deal with the Beedrill that kept appearing, Natsuki had to give Riolu and Gyarados a significant boost.

Growlithe doesn't need any skill upgrades; its type advantage is already perfect. Even against a level 30+ Beedrill, it can easily win.

It cost 5 League Coins to teach Riolu the Rock-type move Rock Slide.

It cost 10 League Coins to teach the red Gyarados Flamethrower.

Jet flame?!

That's right!

Gyarados can use Fire-type moves.

However, it can only be learned through a skill learner.

The last-minute upgrade shows that the skill learning device is even more powerful than Xia Mu originally thought. He tested it last night, which is why he dared to take it out now.

Simply place a TM (Move Maker) on the head of a Pokémon that can learn moves, and the moves in the TM will become one with that Pokémon.

In fact, it has to be the real Pokémon world, where there's no limit to four moves, and you can't easily forget or be unable to use moves you've already learned.

Otherwise, Xia Mu would indeed be reluctant to buy these skills. After all, if there were skill restrictions, he would definitely decide which four skills he would use at the beginning of the game, and he would not use the skill learning device randomly.

……

Although it's not a type, its moves are just as powerful.

Under the onslaught of Growlithe and Gyarados's Fire-type moves, and with Lilo's Rock-type Rock Slide super effective, Beedrill fell one by one.

The battle lasted for more than fifteen minutes.

By the time most of the Beedrill had been defeated, the three little ones were already struggling.

There were still quite a few bee colonies left, but after hundreds of their companions were defeated, they finally felt fear.

In battles between wild Pokémon, especially in this type of battle, Xia Mu doesn't follow the rules by not using healing items. Instead, he uses a rotation strategy to give Growlithe, Riolu, and Red Gyarados time to eat Energy Cubes and quickly recover their stamina.

The items from the system shop have the same effects as in the game, including healing potions and energy cubes that can replenish stamina extremely quickly after consumption.

The battle is over, and if any outsiders were here at this moment, they would surely be stunned.

The sheer number of bee-like wasps covering the ground created a truly devastating scene.

Thanks to this great battle, the three little ones' levels were greatly improved.

Even if they still can't find a suitable Beedrill this time, Natsuki would still feel it's worth it.

Growlithe leveled up by 2 to reach level 38. Seeing the red Gyarados repeatedly use Flamethrower to defeat Beedrill spurred its competitive spirit. Although its level was not high enough to learn Flamethrower (level 40), it still learned it.

This is the impermanence of the real Pokémon world; anything is possible.

Admittedly, Flamethrower is dispensable for Natsuki's Growlithe, since Flamethrower is a special attack.

But ultimately, a Fire-type Pokémon that can't breathe fire isn't a proper Fire-type Pokémon.

Riolu's level increased by 2 levels, reaching level 32. It didn't learn any skills, but its affinity with Riolu exceeded 200 points, reaching 205 points.

We are only 15 points away from the 220 points required for evolution.

I don't know what he did, or how Riolu's mentality changed, but he improved so quickly.

According to the accurate data analysis provided by the system, once the friendship level reaches 200 points or more, the Pokémon's stats will increase from a 6% boost to a 10% boost.

In a sense, Riolu's strength has been enhanced in all aspects once again.

The same goes for Growlithe; its friendship level is 200, which just meets the minimum requirement.

The red Gyarados has 148 points, which is still far from enough, but its stats have been increased by 6%.

As for the level of the red Gyarados, Xia Mu hadn't expected it to be so powerful, and its level would increase so quickly.

The experience shared from the previous twenty-odd Beedrills raised my level by 2, and this wave has raised it by another 4 levels.

I leveled up directly from level 25 to level 29 and even learned the Rainmaking skill.

They were the lowest-ranked, but fought the fiercest.

One burst of flame after another relentlessly harvested the Beedrills.

Xia Mu's analysis leads to the conclusion that special attacks have a much wider range of coverage than physical attacks.

Physical attacks are all single-target damage, so it's impossible to attack two Pokémon at the same time in one move.

But Flamethrower is different. Although it is also a single-target skill, it can kill one beetle in one hit and can be continuously used to attack other Beedrill.

The affected area is at least not as limited as that of physical attack skills.

This is what spurred Growlithe to learn this trick.

In Growlithe's words, "How could I, a Fire-type, be inferior to a Water-type Gyarados?"

Xia Mu checked the three little ones again, treated their injuries, and fed them enough energy cubes to restore their strength.

Only then did they begin to examine the data of each Beedrill one by one.

They were everywhere, like cabbages; Xia Mu could have whichever one she wanted.

Some of the Beedrill had regained some consciousness, but they were terrified of Natsuki and the three little ones and dared not move or fight back, fearing they would be hit by another Flamethrower.
