I became the strongest trainer in the Pokémon world

What the black pendant said was true, and deep down in Xia Zhihai's heart he really wanted to become the first legendary Pokémon trainer in history.

Not by relying on coercion or force, but by defeating those legendary elves who actively do evil or even get out of control.

"Can you tell me in detail what this contract is all about?"

Despite being tempted, Xia Zhihai remained cautious and was not easily tempted.

Then, the black pendant was silent for a few seconds, and suddenly it burst into a soft glow! The surface of the pendant instantly transformed into a dazzling starry sky, which was magnificent and more dreamy and magnificent than any gem that Xia Zhihai had ever seen!

"I declare that I will become Trainer Natsumi's Pokémon!"

"Always by your side, never leave, never betray!"

"I swear in the name of Wukrosius!"

A grand and sacred will unfolded in Xia Zhihai's mind, forming a picture of the contract.

Xia Zhihai can choose to accept or reject.

If you refuse, the pendant may leave, become radical, or even turn completely evil... The result is unpredictable.

If accepted, Summer Sea would have to treat the black pendant, that is, Closius, equally with other spirits. In essence, Summer Sea was required to make an effort to provide the necessary nutrients for the pendant to help it take shape and eventually hatch.

This is by no means an easy task. After all, the pendant has spent countless years in the secret realm and has not yet completely transformed into an elf egg, only forming a vague consciousness.

This awareness will only become clear at the most critical moment or when you make up your mind.

"I agree!"

After repeatedly reviewing the extremely simple contract content of Closius and confirming that it was correct, Xia Zhihai nodded in agreement.

As long as there are no hidden dangers, there is no reason to refuse such an opportunity. After all, as a trainer, it is his duty to capture and train Pokémon.

When Xia Zhihai agreed, the pendant disappeared. At the same time, a pair of exquisite and gorgeous black wing patterns appeared on the back of his hand, mainly used to maintain strength and establish a synchronized state with Closius, and cultivate...some kind of bond?

Gazing at the pair of delicate and gorgeous black wings on the back of his hand, Xia Zhihai suddenly seemed to realize something.

This is not an inherently evil thing. There is no absolute distinction between light and darkness, right and wrong in the world.

The same is true for humans. At this moment, in Xia Zhihai's hands, what this pair of wings represents depends entirely on Xia Zhihai's decision.

Because from the moment the contract was signed, Xia Zhihai became the trainer of Crossius!

It can be said that this is a relationship that is much stronger than blood ties and marriage.

Miraculously, this scene in the ward did not attract anyone's attention.

It was not until three minutes later when Ye Ranran came in with a fragrant breakfast that she realized Xia Zhihai had woken up.

"Miss Ye, I didn't expect to see you bringing me breakfast right after I woke up. What a pleasant surprise."

Xia Zhihai looked at Ye Ranran and asked with a smile, "By the way, how are my parents and Xixi doing now?"

But in fact, Xia Zhihai was not at all surprised by Ye Ranran's arrival.

The mere mention of the benefits brought by bond evolution and energy blocks is enough to make any powerful capital force bow down to them, no matter how amazing their influence in this world is.

However, Ye Ranran still maintained a calm expression, with a gentle smile on her lips. She said to Xia Zhihai, "Don't worry, I have made proper arrangements for both Li Qianqian and your parents."

"I called the studio earlier to let them know that you are safe and sound."

"Now, you just have to enjoy your breakfast and go to the game with all your strength."

Listening to Ye Ranran's words, Xia Zhihai truly felt a sense of relief.

Obviously, the Ye Group has shielded him from almost all troubles from the outside world.

Although he did not know what price the Ye family paid for this, it was certain that without the protection of the Ye family's power, his life would be thrown into chaos, at least in the short term.

There is no doubt that reporters and paparazzi may have already swarmed the hospital.

Xia Zhihai thought to himself that he should be more confident and get rid of the uncertain "maybe" and "estimate".

He took the breakfast handed over by Ye Ranran and thanked her solemnly: "Thank you very much this time. I, Xia Zhihai, am not someone who doesn't know how to be grateful. I will definitely repay you generously in the future."

Although Ye Ranran did not make any requests to Xia Zhihai, he knew very well that one should not forget the favor done by others.

However, when Ye Ranran heard this, her expression changed slightly, then returned to normal and did not answer.

Gradually, the only sound left in the ward was the sound of Xia Zhihai eating. The food was light and ordinary... a bowl of porridge with a few inconspicuous side dishes.

Despite its ordinary appearance, Xia Zhihai ate with gusto, because the food was indeed delicious and definitely not comparable to takeout. It was obviously prepared by a great chef.

When Xia Zhihai finished all the food and leaned back on the bed contentedly, Ye Ranran couldn't help but ask, "Xia Zhihai, was Jeraora's evolution in the arena yesterday... true?"

"And it's another breakthrough based on the final evolutionary form?"

"But why did Jeraora return to her original form after evolving? Of course, it's okay if you don't want to talk about it. As long as the time is right, we can help you hold a press conference to announce it all at the appropriate time."

If this series of questions were asked by someone else, Xia Zhihai might have been wary.

But for a simple and curious girl like Ye Ranran, one can tell from her eyes that she has no other intentions.

After the bond evolution with Jeraora, the double exhaustion of physical strength and energy, the restoration of Krosius's power, and the signing of a contract with him...

Although Xia Zhihai is still a human at this moment, the strength of Changpan's power and supernatural powers in his body has been greatly enhanced, and the two seem to be quietly merging.

Under this trend of change, although Xia Zhihai's body did not change significantly, his eyes became unusually clear, as if he had directly obtained the power of Changpan that could distinguish between good and evil.

Thinking back to the bond evolution with Jeraora and the first time I came into contact with the pendant, my eyes had changed significantly...

Thinking of this, Xia Zhihai couldn't help but rub his eyes gently.

It was not until Ye Ranran tilted her little head and her action, which almost made the whole audience fall in love, that he came back to his senses and responded: "Yes, that is a new form of evolution that surpasses the final evolution."

"I will call it mega evolution for now. It can also be called super evolution, mega evolution, or bond evolution."

“There is not only one way to break the limit, and I am still in the exploration stage.”

Having said this, Xia Zhihai raised a finger to emphasize.

Ye Ranran was full of anticipation, and asked like a little fangirl, "So, what are the basic conditions for this kind of evolution?"
