Chapter 912: Breakthrough

Chapter 912: Breakthrough Torterra's awakening relieved Yuga's earlier tension, and he decided to share this good news with Professor Birch and Mr. Kuni'o, who had been of great help.

Professor Birch was naturally curious about how Torterra had recovered, but Yuga didn't want to reveal the involvement of the three Malamar, so he came up with a vague explanation.

As for Mr. Kuni'o, Yuga was completely honest with him. He believed that if he couldn't trust Mr. Kuni'o, there would be no one in this world he could be trusted.

His master has always treated him sincerely, and Yuga feels that except for the existence of the system and the Ecopark, Yuga felt there was no need to hide anything from him.

With Torterra safe, Yuga remembered the Flying Attribute Stone he had obtained earlier and decided to give it to Archeops, so he headed to the Shallow Seashore Sub-Ecopark.

The No. 3 island at the center of Shallow Seashore Sub-Ecopark had become a lively place. After a long period of domestication, the Mandibuzz had lost their aggressiveness and now lived peacefully under the management of Archeops.

They had realized that their current life, with plenty of food and no need to fight other Pokémon, was much more wonderful than their previous savage living.

Moreover, they also took good care of the young Rufflet, considering them both their children and future mates for the sake of their species. This was probably what they called "fostering."

When Yuga arrived at the No. 3 island, many Mandibuzz were leisurely soaring through the sky, and some were teaching the young Rufflet and juvenile Vullaby various moves. It was a scene of harmony.

As raptors, Mandibuzz had excellent eyesight. They spotted Yuga as soon as he set foot on the No. 3 Island but paid him no attention.

Yuga had visited the No. 3 Island less frequently than the Miltank who took care of the Mandibuzz. Compared to Yuga, they seemed to have a closer bond with the Miltank.

Yuga quickly found Archeops in the center of the No. 3 Island. After not seeing it for a while, he noticed that it had aged considerably. If it couldn't break through soon, Yuga wasn't sure how much longer it would live.

Upon learning that Yuga had brought a method to help it break through to the Champion level, Archeops was overjoyed. It was truly grateful to Yuga.

Seeing its excitement, Yuga didn't keep it waiting and handed the Flying Attribute Stone to Archeops. As soon as it received the stone, it lay down and began absorbing the power within it.

The Flying Attribute Stone, smaller than a palm, was absorbed by the colossal Archeops in a matter of minutes. Blue and white light shimmered around Archeops, and soon its feathers became soft and vibrant once more, while its scales regained their smoothness and strength.

"Archeops!"

With a resounding Archeops from Archeops, a surge of energy radiated from it, reaching its peak.

Hearing this roar, Yuga knew that Archeops had successfully broken through. The Flying Attribute Stone had indeed lived up to its legendary reputation.

At the moment of Archeops's breakthrough, the Champion level aura spread across the No. 3 Island.

The Mandibuzz, including the young ones Vullaby and Rufflet, briefly felt uneasy. Even the Clawitzer in the sea raised their heads, nervously looking towards the direction of No. 3 Island.

However, this surge of power came and went quickly, and the Pokémon soon returned to normal.

In Yuga's Insight ability, Archeops's level had finally broken through the Champion level threshold, becoming Yuga's second Champion level Pokémon in the Ecopark, right after Dragonite's mother.

However, for Archeops to go any further was almost impossible. It was merely a Pokémon with a green potential, and its previous breakthrough to the Elite level in the Landorus's underground world had already been a miracle.

Most green potential Pokémon, under the careful nurturing of trainers, are fortunate enough to reach the pseudo-Elite level. Breaking through to the Elite level without extraordinary circumstances is almost impossible.

Pokémon like Archeops, with green potential, achieved their breakthrough due to unique environments and intense battles. Achieving the Elite level was something that would have been entirely impossible in the outside world.

Even though it had broken through to the Champion level using the Flying Attribute Stone, Archeops was still the weakest among Champion level Pokémon. It might not even be able to defeat Yuga's Lapras.

"Congratulations, Archeops!" Yuga patted Archeops's neck and congratulated it with a smile.

Archeops expressed its gratitude once again and then spread its wings, soaring into the sky, venting its joy after the breakthrough.

Yuga felt that Archeops was likely too preoccupied with its newfound power, so he quietly left the Shallow Seashore Sub-Ecopark and headed to the Haunted Mansion Sub-Ecopark.

Torterra's recovery was greatly indebted to the three Malamar and the Meowstic. While Yuga hadn't planned to reward the Malamar trio, he still wanted to check on them.

When Yuga arrived at the No. 3 Stone Fortress in the Haunted Mansion Sub-Ecopark, the three Malamar were busy working under the supervision of the Meowstic. They seemed overwhelmed and disoriented.

The three Malamar had never imagined they would lead such an extraordinarily tough life. They worked for eighteen hours a day, with only two to three hours for rest, including meals and bathroom breaks.

They also received ideological education and occasionally faced punishment. If they dared to slack off during work, they had to endure the Chandelure's Will-O-Wisp, which was a miserable experience.

The worst part was that they couldn't even defeat the Meowstic now and had to follow its orders. This humiliation was unbearable.

When they heard footsteps approaching from outside, all three Malamar shivered involuntarily. They wondered if they had made another mistake today and if they were about to face someone's wrath.

As soon as Yuga entered and saw the three Malamar trembling, diligently working, he realized they had misunderstood the situation. They breathed a collective sigh of relief, realizing that Yuga had not come to punish them.

Yuga, on the other hand, was slightly puzzled by their reactions. He touched his face and thought, "Did I become handsome again? Why are these Malamar, who used to despise me, looking at me with such delight?"

Only two Meowstic rolled their eyes, clearly understanding the Malamar's psychological state.
