Pokémon: The system says it is a modifier

Chapter 49 A First Exploration into the Gopher Hole



"Now I have 11500 points and two badges. I am one step closer to the requirements for the next system upgrade."

In the restaurant of the Pokémon Center, Yue Chengfeng was enjoying breakfast with several of his Pokémon while mentally calculating what he had gained since his trip.

During the last system upgrade, the system steward once said that the requirements for the next system upgrade are to obtain at least [-] points and at least three badges.After the last system upgrade, the upgrade reward allowed Yue Chengfeng to obtain Meow Meow, a special Pokémon that understands human language.

Now that the goal of the second system upgrade is getting closer, Yue Chengfeng has begun to look forward to the second upgrade reward.

"By the way, I remember when I played "Fire Red/Leaf Green" before, there was an entrance to a gopher hole at the border between Evergreen Forest and Dark Gray City. So in this real world, would it also be..."

After the conjecture about the gopher hole appeared in his mind, Yue Chengfeng couldn't sit still. After thinking briefly, he made a bold decision:

Anyway, there is still plenty of time now, and there is no rush to go to the gym in the next city to challenge. Yue Chengfeng simply plans to take the Pokémon with him to look for the so-called gopher hole after breakfast today.

So, after eating and drinking, Yue Chengfeng packed up his things and set off.

First, ride the new energy motorcycle you obtained from the system to the exit of the Evergreen Forest near Dark Gray City, and then release the five Pokémon except King Magikarp to search around with you.

The hard work paid off. After nearly an hour and a half, Ghost Stone flew back to Yue Chengfeng and tugged on Yue Chengfeng's sleeve.

Yue Chengfeng ran in one direction with Ghost Stone, and sure enough, he found an extremely hidden cave behind a hill.

"This hole...could it be a gopher hole?"

Yue Chengfeng was a little excited and recalled her Pokémon, leaving only Meowth and Ghost. Then she bravely walked into the dark and dim cave with the two Pokémon.

Ghoststone is a ghost-type Pokémon, and the dark environment in the cave has no negative impact on it at all.

As for Miaomiao, Yue Chengfeng wanted to chat with it and divert her attention when she was scared.

The space inside the cave is quite spacious, but the road is very winding and complicated, and the light is very dim, making it almost impossible to see.

Fortunately, Yue Chengfeng bought a few flashlights from a store in the Dark Gray City in advance. He and Miaomiao took one each, and they could barely identify the surrounding environment with the light.

After walking forward for more than ten minutes, the environment ahead became darker and darker. Because I was using only a cheap ordinary flashlight, the surrounding visibility was pitifully low.

While Yue Chengfeng was careful, he couldn't help but marvel at the magical abilities of Pokémon.Who would have thought that a gopher with such a small body could actually dig such a wide, huge and intricate underground cave!

"Ma... Master, how long do we have to go, cats? You don't plan to go through this hole... Ouch!"

Miao Miao looked around at the dim scene, feeling a little nervous. Just as he was about to ask Yue Chengfeng, something seemed to be kicked under his feet, and he immediately tripped and fell to the ground, with his whole face slapped on the ground.

"Meow! What's wrong with you? Are you okay?"

Yue Chengfeng quickly stopped, turned around and squatted down to check on Meow Meow.

Fortunately, Miaomiao just accidentally fell down and didn't suffer any injuries. At most, he only felt pain.

"It hurts so much, Meow...what did you trip over Meow?"

Meow Meow raised one front paw to cover his face, rubbed his forehead a few times, and looked back at the place where he just kicked something.

A semi-elliptical black shadow was visible on the ground, and the shadow was still trembling slightly. It seemed that it was not a dead thing, but a living creature.

Yue Chengfeng and Meow Meow simultaneously shined the light of their flashlights on the black figure, and the black figure shrouded in light immediately revealed its true appearance—it turned out to be the head of a Pokémon!With brown hair, a red nose and black eyes, he looks a bit cute.

"This is...a gopher!"

Yue Chengfeng exclaimed. One of his purposes for coming to the Gopher Cave this time was to recover a ground-type Pokémon to prepare for the future electric-type gym in Dead Leaf City.Unexpectedly, I met a gopher right now!

When Meow Meow tripped just now, he probably accidentally kicked the gopher in the head. At this time, there was obviously a small scratch on the gopher's forehead.

However, the gopher itself is not a bad-tempered Pokémon. Although it was hurt by Meowth's kick, the gopher still did not show any intention of attacking. It just looked at Meowth displeasedly and then committed suicide. He dug a hole underground and wanted to get out of here.

"No, Ghoststone, hurry up and follow the gopher, don't let it run away!"

"Ghos~t!"

Ghost Stone's reaction was already fast, but the gopher's movements of digging holes and shrinking his head were even faster.So when the ghost walked to the place where the gopher was originally, there was only a dark hole left.

Ghost Stone looked at the hole in the ground, scratched his chin, then shrank his body, turned into a black shadow, and got into the hole dug by the gopher, chasing after the gopher.

"Ah? Ghost Stone, please wait a moment...forget it, Meow Meow, let's follow too!"

Because the gophers will create raised mounds of soil when they dig holes and move around, Yue Chengfeng doesn't have to worry about losing the gophers and Ghost Stone.

Seeing that Ghost Stone was already chasing the gopher, Yue Chengfeng hurriedly called Meow Meow and followed along the mounds of dirt.

I don’t know how long they ran, but when Yue Chengfeng and Miaomiao stopped panting, the scene in front of them suddenly became clear.

If the area they walked through before can be regarded as a tunnel or a maze, then what is now displayed in front of them is a vast underground world!

In a large excavated underground space, countless gophers live. Among them, you can occasionally see the evolved three gophers, as well as other Pokémon living underground such as pangolins, pangolins, and even rock snakes. ,

"This... is completely an underground Pokémon kingdom! It's so spectacular!"

"ghos~t~"

Ghost Stone has returned to Yue Cheng Maple at some point. It is not stupid. It knows that if it rashly finds the gopher and attacks it, it will definitely become the target of public criticism and be attacked by many wild underground Pokémon. fire.

【Gulu~】

Miaomiao and Yue Chengfeng swallowed at the same time.Yue Chengfeng quietly took out his mobile phone, turned off the flash, and took a few photos of the spectacular scene in front of him, preparing to share it with Ite if he had the opportunity in the future.

Meowth shrank his head and asked worriedly: "Master, there are so many Pokémon here, what should we do? Do we still need to subdue the gophers?"

Miaomiao's worries were reasonable, but Yue Chengfeng didn't want to give up. Even after seeing so many Pokémon, the targets he wanted to conquer were no longer limited to gophers.

After tilting his head and thinking for a while, Yue Chengfeng made a fist with his right hand and lightly hammered the palm of his left hand.

"Okay, I have an idea!"
