Manor Lord in the Pokémon World

Chapter 136 Lugia's Feathers

In the center of the box lay a silver feather, gleaming softly in the sunlight, with faint vortexes of air swirling around it.

With just one glance, the wind sprite knew that this was no ordinary prop.

I could faintly sense the aura of a deity!

This is a feather left behind by a deity with divine authority!

"These are Lugia's feathers," the Kecleon explained, a hint of nostalgia in his eyes.

"When I was young, I traveled around the world and found it by chance on the beach after a storm. It is said that taking it out to sea can calm the waves."

Just then, the noisy bird flew over in a hurry, its face full of smiles.

"Wind Fairy! Come with me quickly! The guild leader says he wants to reward you for solving a huge problem for the guild! Your expedition team has done a great service this time!"

After unloading their cargo, the hunting swallowtail butterflies flew back to the manor to deliver today's nutritious breakfast.

Whimsicott followed Chatot into the guild and met Pikachu, who was equally excited, and Breloom, who was hiding at the very back for some reason.

A large group of Pokémon followed Chatot into the conference room on the second floor. Jigglypuff was already standing at the top of the conference room, holding a medal in its hand.

Upon seeing the gleaming medal in the president's hand, the wind sprite suddenly remembered something.

The chattering bird promised them that if they found the perfect apple, it would upgrade their expedition team to two stars, but it hasn't delivered yet!

The meeting room was right next to Chairman Jigglypuff's office. As a group of Pokémon entered the meeting room, led by Chatot, it immediately became lively.

The cloaked dragon also came over, having specially changed into a purple outfit.

This is its favorite dress, which it only wears on important occasions.

With so many Pokémon watching them, Breloom and Whimsicott stood nervously in a row, even unconsciously lowering their breathing.

Pikachu, on the other hand, was completely unfazed, curiously looking around and even tugging at the hem of the cloaked dragon's dress before being quickly pulled back by Whimsicott.

"Ahem." President Fatdog cleared his throat.

"Originally, by helping you retrieve the perfect apple, you had, according to the agreement, possessed the basic qualities of a qualified expedition team and could have been promoted to a two-star expedition team. But..."

President Fatdog suddenly broke into a bright smile:

"However! Whimsicott has done a great job this time! The supplies it brought helped us break the Electabuzz Guild's monopoly and relieved the guild's urgent crisis! Therefore, I have decided to directly promote you to a three-star expedition team!"

Samsung Expedition Team!!!

A gasp of surprise erupted in the conference room.

He jumped two levels in one go, directly becoming a three-star!

Many expeditions that have stayed here for several years are still stuck at the two-star level!

Although they were envious, after Kecleon led the applause, the other Pokémon also gave sincere applause.

Everyone knows that the Wind Fairy really helped a lot this time.

With this food, the cloaked dragon can re-enter the dungeon, making it safer for everyone to explore.

"Ahem, now let me introduce the benefits of the Samsung Expedition Team."

Chairman Fat Ding's words brought the meeting room back to silence.

Even the veteran members perked up their ears; they only knew that three stars was the highest level in the guild, but they weren't really aware of the full benefits.

"Firstly, in terms of accommodation, the Samsung expedition team can have a separate cave."

"Great!" Breloom clenched its fist excitedly. "Finally, I don't have to squeeze into a dormitory with other Pokémon anymore!"

This cave will later become the command and control room for the nameless expedition team.

"Secondly, there is no longer a mandatory requirement to complete a task every three days. You can accept tasks according to your own needs and are able to accept the highest level of tasks."

Guild operations require funding. To ensure sufficient operating funds, almost all guilds have rules that low-level expedition teams must complete tasks regularly and hand over most of the commission fees; otherwise, they can only leave the guild.

"At the same time, the Adventure Medal's permissions will be upgraded to the highest level, allowing users to query various intelligence through the medal, and the Adventure Backpack's capacity will also be expanded to the maximum."

The chatterbox was in a particularly good mood today, adding, "The highest level the Wigglypuff Guild can currently award is three stars. If you want to advance further, you need to take the assessment at the Expeditionary Guild."

"We will continue to work hard and strive to become a four-star expedition team as soon as possible!" the Breloom declared with high spirits.

The noisy bird just smiled awkwardly: "Well... having dreams is a good thing, but some things can't be forced."

It explained, "There's a crucial threshold between three and four stars: you must successfully explore a god-level relic!"

"A divine-level legacy?!"

Legendary relics are relics related to legendary Pokémon; they are rare and hard to come by!

Let alone passing through, just encountering it is extremely difficult; many expeditions never encounter one in their entire lives.

Not to mention the risks involved, which are far greater than those of ordinary mazes.

Today, three-star expedition teams constitute the largest group in the Pokémon exploration world, with many teams stuck at three stars their entire lives.

The noisy bird shook its head; there were still various opportunities hidden within the divine ruins.

Those top-tier expedition teams often undergo the baptism of multiple god-level ruins, quickly gaining immense power, which is how they become powerful figures in their respective regions.

Only by emerging from divine ruins can one transcend the scope of ordinary expeditions.

The mushroom's eyes gleamed with excitement; the Five-Star Expedition Team was its goal.

I am certain that I will clear the God-level Ruins; this is just the first step.

……

After the promotion ceremony, Whimsicott, Breloom, and Pikachu arrived at their newly assigned residence.

This is a spacious natural cave with a luminous crystal hanging from the ceiling, illuminating the interior.

Three comfortable beds covered with hay were placed against the wall, and there was a storage shelf in the corner for storing props.

A wooden door was installed at the entrance of the cave, with a string of wind chimes hanging on it, making a crisp sound in the wind.

Although the accommodation was simple, it was exceptionally cozy.

In any case, with this place of residence, the expedition team finally had its own little piece of land.

The straw mushroom stood excitedly on the stool, full of fighting spirit:

"This will be the starting point for our expedition team to make a name for ourselves; we will definitely become a legendary expedition team!"

The Whimsicott and Pikachu below cheered.

After playing around for a while, everyone lay down on the hay beds and talked about the expedition's next goal.

The expedition team has become a three-star expedition team, and the next step is to become a four-star expedition team.

The Wind Fairy looked worried. "The Noisy Bird Butler said that to advance to a four-star expedition team, we need to clear a god-level ruin."

Finding divine relics is not that easy.

Just then, the mushroom with the straw hat spoke up: "I do know the location of a god-level ruin."

Upon hearing Breloom's words, Whimsicott and Pikachu immediately perked up.

The mushroom looked nostalgic. "The ruins are located on a mountain in Little White Town. They only appear briefly when a rainbow hangs in the sky after the rain."

It is actually located on the western mountain.

The wind sprite exclaimed excitedly, "Then what are we waiting for? Let's go explore the divine ruins!"

But the mushroom with the straw hat shook its head. "You need a key to open the ruins."

It searched everywhere, asked many Pokémon, and finally found only half of them.

It was later lost and left in that human's manor.

Pikachu, standing nearby, looked at its two dejected friends, but a glint of light flashed in its eyes.
