Chapter Summaries

• Lu Li asked Indeedee to demonstrate its invisibility again.
• Indeedee nodded and vanished from sight.
• Lu Li used his phone camera and saw Indeedee standing there, even though he could not see it with his naked eyes.
• Lu Li wondered whether Indeedee used psychic power to distort human perceptions, then put his phone away.

Lu Li introduced Feebas to Indeedee as part of his family, explaining that Feebas had accidentally fallen into a trash can when the Pokémon arrived. Indeedee greeted Feebas, who curiously studied Indeedee.

• Lu Li picked up Feebas’s fish tank and introduced Feebas to Indeedee as his family.
• Lu Li explained that Feebas had accidentally fallen into a trash can when the Pokémon arrived.
• Indeedee politely greeted Feebas, who had initially felt worried and nervous about Indeedee.

Lu Li calmed down after examining three Poké Balls, then recognized a red Apricorn as a raw material for making Poké Balls. He considered how traditional forging expertise could help him make them.

• Lu Li took several deep breaths and set aside the three Poké Balls.
• Lu Li examined three Berries and noticed that one red Berry had a vivid color and an unusually hard shell.
• Lu Li picked up and sniffed the red Apricorn, recognizing its pungent smell as the one he remembered.
• Lu Li recalled that Master Kurt made Poké Balls by hand and concluded that expertise mattered more than advanced machinery.
• Lu Li reflected that he had chosen to major in traditional forging after transmigrating to this world.

Lu Li fed Feebas the flesh of two Razz Berries that Indeedee had carefully prepared as a gift. He knew the berries alone would not be enough to make Feebas evolve, but used them before they could spoil.

• Lu Li carefully peeled the Razz Berries and removed their seeds.
• Lu Li fed the remaining berry flesh to Feebas, who eagerly ate it.
• Lu Li recalled that Indeedee had given him the berries and three Poké Balls in packaging decorated with Milotic.

Lu Li and Jun Shutong discussed whether rats could survive among magical beasts as they headed to the sixth floor.

• Jun Shutong reacted with surprise when Lu Li said he had seen a rat.
• Lu Li said rats and cockroaches were often believed to be the creatures most likely to survive an apocalypse.
• Jun Shutong explained that magical beasts preyed on other animals as well as humans, including rats.

• Lu Li and Jun Shutong continued toward the sixth floor.

An Kang assured Jun Shutong that the Shopping Mall had been built to standard, while Lu Li tried to determine why the area kept experiencing minor earthquakes. The broken communications equipment left him unable to tell whether the quakes were global or localized.

• An Kang swore that the Shopping Mall's construction met all required standards.
• An Kang said he trusted the safety checks because a relative was a shareholder and he knew the owner.
• Jun Shutong nodded and looked to Lu Li.
• Lu Li considered whether the recurring earthquakes were global or confined to a small area, but the communications equipment had malfunctioned.

After the meeting ended, Lu Li hurried back to train Feebas, suspecting its Poké Ball made it easier to communicate with it. The chapter ended before he could continue, with his thoughts on Feebas’s limited moves and lack of egg moves cut off.

• Lu Li left the meeting as soon as it ended because he wanted to train Feebas.
• Lu Li noticed he had found it easier to communicate with Feebas since catching it in a Poké Ball.
• Lu Li suspected the Poké Ball had useful features he did not know about.
• Lu Li considered Feebas’s usual moves and concluded Xiaomei had no egg moves.

After Lu Li guided Feebas, it unleashed a powerful Tackle that smashed through a concrete wall. Lu Li’s excitement turned to worry as he searched the rubble and found Feebas.

• Lu Li gave Feebas some guidance, and Feebas seemed to understand.
• Feebas dove underwater, kicked off, and charged into the wall like a cannonball.
• Feebas broke through the solid wall, thrilling Lu Li with its power.
• Lu Li realized Feebas might be hurt and searched the rubble for it.
• Lu Li found Feebas among the concrete chunks, but its condition was not revealed.

Jun Shutong warned Lu Li not to risk his life and left him to his research. Lu Li prepared food for Feebas and began analyzing its Tackle, which suggested it was at least level 10.

• Jun Shutong solemnly told Lu Li that she trusted him but hoped he would not gamble with his life.
• Jun Shutong left after repeatedly reminding Lu Li to stay safe.
• Lu Li prepared food for Feebas and analyzed the effects of its recent Tackle.
• Lu Li concluded that Feebas should be at least level 10 if it could use Tackle.

Lu Li considered Bounsweet as a possible Pokémon to raise, but kept it as a secondary target because it evolved too late for his plans. The rest of the chapter contained a brief exchange about training and a reverse machine.

• Lu Li judged Bounsweet to be weak, though somewhat stronger than Pokémon such as Caterpie.
• Lu Li considered raising Bounsweet because it was a Grass-type and might benefit from modern chemical fertilizers.
• Lu Li kept Bounsweet as a secondary target because its evolution took too long.
• Someone said training and finishing skills were still attacking, then denied being alone and said they were using a reverse machine.

• Jun Shutong reluctantly accepted Lu Li's decision to keep her safely in the Camp.

• Jun Shutong led Lu Li to her office and signaled for him to leave.

Lu Li learned that humanoid magical beasts and rat magical beasts were fighting downstairs in the Shopping Mall. Though the battle was dangerous, he decided to watch so he could gauge Machoke’s and the Raticate pack’s strength.

• Fatty Lei told Lu Li that the humanoid magical beasts and rat magical beasts were fighting downstairs.
• Lu Li dressed and considered whether to watch the battle.
• Lu Li decided the fight was a rare chance to judge Machoke’s and the Raticate pack’s strength.
• Lu Li met Fatty Lei at the door.

• Lu Li concluded that Pokémon might be beings made of energy rather than ordinary animals.
• Lu Li noted that Raticate had no apparent area-of-effect attacks and worried about Pokémon whose attacks could cause widespread shock waves.
• Lu Li returned to Camp and recorded confirmed facts and untested conjectures in his notebook.
• Fat Thunder arrived at Lu Li’s door with a fawning smile.

Weedle woke in a strange place and mistook the kind-looking Indeedee for the Pokémon that had taken it. Indeedee examined Weedle and found that, despite its unusually small and skinny body, its life essence was healthy.
