As for the League preparing to bring this training experience to an early end, those present on the continent had no idea whatsoever.
Of course, at that moment Cain, who was confined within the barrier on the central mountain of the continent, also knew nothing about it.
However, this matter did not actually have too great an impact on Steven and the others. The training on the continent had already been more than sufficient; continuing would only have meant carrying on with routine battles and growth. Although, compared to the Pokémon world, the speed of progress would undoubtedly be somewhat faster, the difference was not that overwhelming either.
Due to Cain’s forced intervention, the Sacred Church completely collapsed, causing the difficulty of Steven’s and the others’ training to decrease even further.
That said, apart from this group of people who managed to successfully gather together, there were still quite a few scattered outside. No one knew their exact situation, nor whether they had managed to survive under the oppression of the Sacred Church.
Meanwhile, Cain, completely unaware of all this, had his attention fully focused on researching Giratina’s reverse scale.
A material of such high quality, placed in the Pokémon world, with only a handful of researchers possessing solid Pokémon knowledge and several Advanced-level breeders, could already, without exaggeration, be considered an object worthy of a lifetime of study.
A Pokémon like Giratina, to the vast majority of people, was nothing more than a legend. Now, if a reverse scale as precious as this existed, it would undoubtedly open a new window for all those who studied Pokémon, allowing them to gain a deeper understanding of the very essence of the entire Pokémon world.
In terms of professional knowledge, Cain might not compare to those scholars, but he possessed something the others did not.
That was the system.
The existence of the system, after being deliberately expanded by Cain, contained an amount of data that could only be described as colossal.
When Cain became the Sandstorm Elite Four of Hoenn and one of Team Rocket’s Executives, he once again deliberately expanded the system’s data. At that point, without exaggeration, the information stored within it was easily equivalent to that of two or three Pokémon researchers at the Pokémon Professor level.
Moreover, the system had another great advantage: its calculation and analysis speed was dozens, even hundreds of times faster than that of humans. For other people, this might be a research project lasting an entire lifetime, but for the system, it was nothing more than a relatively special and complex object.
Especially considering that Cain already had a certain ability to decompose the energy present in Giratina’s reverse scale.
Three days later, after the system’s complex calculations and numerous tests conducted by Cain, a method was finally determined to extract the dense Ghost-type energy contained within the reverse scale. frёewebηovel.cѳm
In this, Darkrai’s presence also played a very important role.
The Ghost-type energy of Giratina inside Darkrai’s body was like a stubborn stain: an obstruction, a foreign element. Moreover, since it was inside his body, there were many limitations, which made removing it much more difficult.
But if it was energy that originally existed within the reverse scale, the concept was completely different.
Cain once again took out Giratina’s reverse scale, which he had left to rest for three days. The dense energy it contained had not dissipated with the passage of time.
On the contrary, as the reverse scale had been separated from Giratina’s body, it increasingly resembled a special form of independent organism. Its energy formed an internal energy-flow circuit, as if a stable and continuous development was naturally maintained within it.
"Three whole days... it really hasn’t been easy to produce this. Fortunately, the materials collected this time were sufficient, so the manufacturing process didn’t encounter too many obstacles," Cain said while holding in his other hand a vial of orange-yellow reagent. That was what he had managed to produce over those three days with the help of the system.
"Darkrai, Gengar, in a moment I’ll need you to act. Get everything ready," Cain said to Darkrai and the eager Gengar.
Among Cain’s Pokémon, the only one that could truly make use of Giratina’s Ghost-type energy was Gengar.
And Darkrai’s role was to help Cain and Gengar block the energy within the reverse scale at the appropriate moment. That task could only be done by Darkrai. freёwebnovel.com
"KEKEKE!", Gengar nodded, gradually suppressing his excitement.
"Darkaaii!" Darkrai maintained his usual cold expression, but from his demeanor it was clear that he took Cain’s request very seriously. After all, he had suffered greatly from Giratina’s energy; even if it was only a reverse scale, he could not afford to be careless.
Seeing that both Pokémon indicated there was no problem, Cain slowly poured the yellow reagent over the black reverse scale.
The veins of the black scale were soon filled with the yellow reagent, which was absorbed by the scale at a speed visible to the naked eye.
In reality, the greatest difficulty in decomposing this reverse scale was not extracting the energy it contained, but doing so without damaging the scale itself.
When the yellow reagent was completely absorbed, Cain immediately tossed the reverse scale from his hand and retreated rapidly.
At that moment, the energy within the scale became extremely unstable. Its own energy cycle was destroyed after the intervention of the yellow reagent, and a massive amount of energy began to disperse.
Seeing a large amount of Ghost-type energy being released, Gengar immediately stepped forward and absorbed all the dense black mist into his body.
Gengar had previously absorbed Giratina’s Ghost-type energy. However, after a long period of adaptation and assimilation, the energy within his body had already become entirely his own, although it inevitably retained many similarities to Giratina’s energy.
"KEKEKKK!" The moment he came into contact with the dispersing black mist, Gengar let out a cry of pain, making it clear that the pressure of this absorption was considerable.
Cain continuously monitored Gengar’s data.
Gengar’s energy absorption had a threshold. If it was exceeded, he would not be able to convert it in time and would end up being assimilated by Giratina’s energy.
That was why Darkrai’s presence was necessary: only he could suppress Giratina’s energy to a certain extent and help Gengar absorb it more safely.
Cain watched closely, and seeing that Gengar was already about to reach his threshold right from the start, he was slightly surprised and immediately shouted, "Darkrai!"
