Elf: I, the Lord of Ghosts, lead the Night Parade of Hundred Ghosts

"Dear passengers, please note that this flight is expected to arrive at its final destination, Shangtian City, in ten minutes. Please prepare for landing in advance!"

"Attention, passengers..."

"..."

Just as Xia Chan was using the mobile phone navigation software in the luxury suite to check how to get to her destination and the coordinates of the extra-dimensional space gate, announcements reminding her of the imminent arrival of the port rang out one after another in Jintian No. 3, echoing in every corner of the ferry.

Upon hearing the voice, Xia Chan put down his phone, first put the elves back into the Poké Balls and put them away properly, then began to pack up all the items he had taken out, put on a regular travel backpack to conceal the existence of the mustard seed space, and walked out of the luxury suite.

By coincidence, Korla and Situ Lan just walked out of the room.

After the three of them talked for a few words, they went to the deck together, waiting for the ferry to connect with the port and get off the ship safely.

Since Jintian No. 3 is a direct flight from Jincheng to Shangtian City, all passengers disembark here, so there are many people gathered on the deck at this moment.

However, Jintian 3 is very large, so even if the deck can accommodate thousands of people, it will not be particularly crowded.

Ten minutes later, Jintian No. 3 arrived on time at a large port in the bay on the east side of Shangtian City.

After the long ladder on the ship was firmly connected to the port ground, the passengers who had been waiting on the deck in advance took their belongings and disembarked in an orderly manner.

After getting off the boat, Xia Chan walked to the port center with Korla and Situ Lan, and took the special car that came to pick them up to leave the port and enter the urban area of ​​Shangtian City.

Korla and Situ Lan, a couple from Changqing Province next to Beitian Province, originally came to Jincheng for sightseeing. They made a sudden decision to come to Shangtian City after receiving an invitation from an important business partner. This special car was brought to pick them up by that important business partner.

When the special car entered the urban area of ​​Shangtian City, Xia Chan, who was going in a different direction from the couple, got off halfway, and then followed the navigation and took a vehicle alone to a border town called Zisong Town in the north of Shangtian City.

It is called a border town, but this is only relative to the prosperity of Shangtian City. When Xia Chan arrived in Zisong Town, he found that the prosperity here was no less than that of a large district in Jincheng.

“It’s a big city indeed!”

With emotion, Xia Chan entered Zisong Town.

As the name suggests, there are a large number of rare purple pine trees growing in Zisong Town. The destination of his trip, the elite ghost space, is located in a purple pine forest in the southern suburbs of Zisong Town.

According to the information Xia Chan found on the Internet, this purple pine forest was originally an ecological park and a completely open area. It did not become a closed area until the arrival of a dimensional space gate three years ago.

Currently, the gate to the other-dimensional space in the Purple Pine Forest is in a trial-opening state, and only certain qualified trainers are allowed to enter. Moreover, within the specified time period, no more than five trainers are allowed to enter at the same time. Including accompanying and guarding military personnel, there are only ten humans in the other-dimensional space at the same time.

Xia Chan guessed that the reason for such a regulation was probably to avoid encounters and conflicts among explorers inside.

As for whether his guess was correct, Xia Chan didn't know.

When Xia Chan entered Zisong Town, it was already getting dark. He did not rush to the Zisong Forest where the alien space was located. Instead, he chose to stay overnight in the hotel nearest to the Zisong Forest to recuperate and set off to the alien space the next morning.

......

The night passed peacefully.

The next morning, Xia Chan got up early and walked to the purple pine forest where the alien space was located.

There are many purple pine forests near the Zisong Town area, but the most famous one is the purple pine forest that Xia Chan is going to this trip. The main reason for its fame is that there is an elite ghost space in it.

Every day, some trainers come here, wanting to enter to explore, look for opportunities, or capture a ghost-type Pokémon, but wishes may not come true. Most of the trainers who have this idea return empty-handed.

When Xia Chan entered the purple pine forest where the gate to the other-dimensional space was located, there were already quite a few people wandering around.

Judging from their attire and the Poké Balls and Summer Cicadas on their waists, these people should all be trainers.

"Handsome boy, you are not allowed to enter here casually. If you want to capture a ghost-type Pokémon, you'd better try your luck around here. Maybe you can encounter a ghost-type Pokémon that has been released from another dimension." Xia Chan was just about to enter the outer checkpoint of the dimensional gate when a beautiful older sister in a long skirt kindly reminded him.

"Thanks for the reminder." Xia Chan smiled and thanked him, but he did not stop moving forward.

"Alas, he is very handsome, but his brain is not very good and he can't understand what people say. What a pity..." Seeing that Xia Chan ignored the advice and insisted on moving forward, the beautiful elder sister sighed inwardly.

There were some "civilian" trainers nearby who wanted to try their luck and capture a ghost-type Pokémon. They also noticed Xia Chan's movements, but they did not dissuade him like the beautiful big sister did. They just looked at him coldly, waiting to see him hit a wall.

"This is an area to be opened, please leave immediately."

As Xia Chan approached the checkpoint, a young man in military uniform walked quickly up to him from the checkpoint and told him with a stern face.

"I'm Xia Chan from Jincheng Town Gate College, and this is my qualification certificate."

Xia Chan had anticipated this, and before the young man in military uniform was about to expel him, he swiftly took out a palm-sized handwritten certificate from his jacket pocket and handed it to the other party.

The young man in military uniform was slightly startled when he heard this, then he took the certificate, stared at it for a while, looked at Xia Chan a few times, and then said with a stern expression: "Go in, someone will lead you inside."

After saying that, he returned the certificate to Xia Chan.

"Thank you." Xia Chan took the voucher and put it in his pocket. After thanking him, he walked past the young man in military uniform and entered the checkpoint.

There are many checkpoints near the door to the other-dimensional space. Xia Chan has only entered the outermost checkpoint. He still needs to pass many checkpoints before he can reach the door.

"So it's my brain that's failing..." The pretty elder sister who had been secretly criticizing Xia Chan widened her eyes and murmured softly when she saw this.

"Haha! He must be another young master from some family!" Someone showed indignation, as if he was ashamed of him.

"......"

"Being young and extraordinary is how I want to be..." Some people recalled their youthful years and couldn't help but sigh.

"..."

While people were talking about this, Xia Chan, relying on his qualification certificate, had passed many levels and arrived at the area near the gate to the other-dimensional space.
