After deciding to buy the Pokémon Egg containing the Applin, Jacob set his sights on another Pokémon Egg.

The other egg was even rarer. It was a pure Dragon-type Pokémon, Axew, with Champion level potential. However, due to its damaged vitality, its potential had dropped to ordinary level, and its life was in danger at any time.

[Pokémon Egg]

Axew

Gender: Male

Type: Dragon

Potential: Ordinary level (vitality damaged, originally Champion level)

Ability: Mold Breaker

Moves: ???

Note: Axew’s vitality is extremely weak. To revive Axew and hatch it successfully requires a large amount of Dragon energy, and it must be incubated in a Dragon-type Secret Realm for at least one year.

Hatching requirements: Provide an S-level Dragon item (0/1) or a large amount of Dragon nutrient solution (0/53), and hatch in a location rich in Dragon energy.

Jacob examined the system’s information and calculated mentally that 53 bottles of Dragon energy nutrient solution at 1.5 million Pokédollars per bottle would cost about 79.5 million, or approximately 80 million Pokédollars. Even with bulk purchase discounts, it would still cost an enormous sum. This price made Jacob frown as he remained silent.

First of all, he had to buy it anyway. After all, this was a Champion level Axew. He would make a substantial profit if he purchased it. He could find a way to get the money for the Dragon energy nutrient solution. At worst, Jacob could sell a few of the Quasi-King level Pokémon eggs he had recently acquired to raise funds.

However, Jacob couldn’t accept the fact that the incubation time was as long as one year. He felt extremely uncomfortable. He had finally found a satisfactory Dragon-type Pokémon, but he’d have to wait for a year, by which time opportunity might have passed.

Jacob didn’t hesitate and bought the Axew egg for now, planning to figure out the rest later.

“How much are these two Pokémon eggs?” Jacob asked.

“Two million.” The waiter quoted a price that made Jacob whistle. A Dragon-type Pokémon egg that couldn’t be hatched was actually so expensive. “No bargaining.”

“These Pokémon eggs aren’t easy to obtain. Ask around if you want. We’re the only establishment in the entire country that can get these items,” the waiter said arrogantly. “And they’re very nutritious. They nourish yin and yang, strengthen the body. Dragon Pokémon eggs can make you younger. They’re also good for that aspect. The more men eat, the more virile they become, and the more women eat, the more beautiful they become.”

Jacob didn’t listen to the waiter’s sales pitch. He only cared about the price. He didn’t have that much money on him—only a few hundred thousand. He quickly turned to Nina beside him: “Professor Nina, I’ll borrow two million from you and pay you back when we return.”

“You want to eat Pokémon eggs?” Nina didn’t care about the money. What concerned her was that Jacob actually wanted to eat Pokémon eggs. On one hand, Pokémon were friends of humans, so eating Pokémon eggs was somewhat unacceptable to her. On the other hand, she suspected that Jacob was so determined to buy Dragon-type Pokémon eggs after hearing about their effects. Could it be because he had some hidden issue?

Thinking this, Nina blushed slightly and secretly assessed Jacob’s physique. He was tall and strong, and didn’t look like he had any hidden problems. However, her best friend had once said that a man’s capabilities in that regard had no direct relationship with his height or build.

Jacob didn’t realize that Nina was overthinking things. When he heard her tone, he thought she had misunderstood that he wanted to eat the Pokémon eggs, so he quickly explained: “No, I plan to buy them to save these two Pokémon eggs. They still have a chance of survival.”

Hearing Jacob’s words, Nina’s face turned even redder. She realized she had been overthinking. She nodded quickly and said, “Two million, please wrap them up for us.”

“Are you taking them with you?”

“Yes, of course,” Jacob replied.

“Sure, just pay.” The waiter glanced at the tall Jacob and muttered to himself, “What’s so special about him? He’s just relying on the rich woman next to him. I don’t know what she sees in this guy. He looks big and strong, but he’s just for show, and he needs to rely on this kind of food to compensate.”

…

With their great acquisition, Jacob returned directly to the Secret Realm with five or six Pokémon eggs.

As a true Dragon-type Pokémon enthusiast, Nina was different from Jacob, who was a casual Dragon-type fan. She genuinely wanted to save these two Dragon-type Pokémon.

After returning to the Secret Realm, Nina immediately took out an instrument to test the Dragon energy of the two Pokémon eggs. The results made her look solemn.

The condition of these two eggs was very poor. No wonder they were sold as dead eggs. Their vitality was extremely weak. It would cost at least tens of millions in Dragon energy nutrient solution to save them.

Although she also loved Dragon-type Pokémon, she had to be realistic about the high cost.

“Jacob, do you know how much it will cost to save these two Pokémon eggs?” Nina reminded him with a serious expression.

“I know.” Jacob certainly understood that although the cost was extremely high, the gains would be great. If word spread that one could buy a Champion level Pokémon for 80 million Pokédollars, there would definitely be interested buyers.

“Don’t worry, I’ll lend you the money for the Dragon Energy Nutrient Solution. I’ll owe it to you first. I’ll call my brother.”

“That’s not what I meant.” Nina certainly didn’t care about money. With Jacob’s current status as a research leader, many people would be willing to lend money to him. “Are you sure you want to spend so much money to save them?”

“Of course, why else would I buy them? To eat them? Money can be earned again, but some opportunities may not come back once you miss them.”

Of course Jacob knew how much it would cost. He picked up his phone, walked to a secluded corner, and called his brother.

“Hello, Jacob, what brings you to call me?” Asher on the other end of the phone was in good spirits and started teasing Jacob as soon as the call connected.

“Brother, I have something important to tell you.” Jacob briefly explained what had happened that day, including the Quasi King level Pokémon eggs he had found for them, as well as the eggs of Applin and Axew.

“How much will it cost? About 100 million. Damn, are you crazy? Are you sure they have good potential?” Asher was also shocked. He couldn’t provide such a large sum of money, so he could only discuss it with their father.

“Absolutely,” Jacob responded seriously.

“I’ll advance you some money, so you don’t owe anyone else. I’ll discuss the rest with Dad.” Asher thought for a moment before responding.

“Well, come over as soon as possible and take all these Pokémon eggs. I picked them especially for you.”

“Okay. I’ll make time to visit tomorrow or the day after.”

…

Seeing Jacob on the phone, Nina took advantage of the empty room and quietly used her Dragon ability on the two Pokémon eggs. This power could not only sense the potential of Dragon-type Pokémon but also enhance their strength, which was extremely beneficial for Dragon-types.

With blue light rising from Nina’s palm, the Dragon Tamer power enveloped the two Pokémon eggs.

“An Applin with Quasi-King level potential.”

“What?”

“The Axew has Champion level potential!”

Nina almost cried out in surprise, but fortunately calmed herself in time and quickly withdrew her Dragon power. The Pokémon egg that Jacob had chosen turned out to be of Champion level.

Nina looked at the two Pokémon eggs in astonishment and fell into deep thought. After using the Dragon power to examine the two eggs, she had a clearer understanding of the damage to their vitality. According to her estimation, it would take more than six months to heal the Applin with Dragon energy nutrient solution alone, and more than a year to heal Axew!

However, Jacob still had five months left before participating in the College Cup Competition. If she used her power in conjunction with treatment, this time could be greatly shortened!

One year could be reduced to about half a month, which would be enough to heal Axew’s injuries and allow it to hatch quickly, but it would cause certain damage to her body, and it would take at least half a year to recover.

Should she help Jacob?

Nina looked at Jacob, who was still on the phone outside, then at Axew’s egg, and made her decision.
