"Ding! The host has selected a modification!"
Following the system's notification, only the final line remained on the panel.
Modification Content:
Grant Slakoth the Ability Huge Power
Modification Requirement:
Slakoth reaches Level 10
(Current Progress: Lv.9 / 10)
"That's perfect."
Julian smiled slightly.
Once Slakoth gained Huge Power, its strength would undergo a massive transformation.
The only thing he needed to figure out now was how to raise Slakoth one level to meet the requirement.
Just as Julian was thinking, the system notification appeared again.
Ding! Daily Mission "Strive for Progress" has been completed.
Reward obtained:
• 1× Basic Modification Opportunity
Ding! Main mission updated!
Main Mission 2 — Show Your Talent (Difficulty: C)
Mission Description:
As a transmigrator, if you can't even get a good score, this system would be embarrassed for you.
Mission Requirement:
In the upcoming Pokémon College Entrance Exam, achieve the best score possible.
The better the score, the greater the reward.
Julian read the panel and quickly understood the situation.
Because he had used a modification ability earlier, he completed a Daily Mission and received another Basic Modification opportunity.
The new Main Mission required him to perform well in tomorrow's Pokémon College Entrance Exam.
And judging from the system's style so far…
The rewards would definitely be excellent.
Naturally, Julian planned to aim for the highest possible reward tier.
After making up his mind, Julian began thinking about the Pokémon College Entrance Exam.
The exam was divided into two parts:
1. Theoretical Exam
2. Practical Battle Exam
The theory test posed no problem at all.
Based on the mock exams stored in his memory, he could probably even score full marks.
After all…
When it came to Pokémon knowledge, even the people writing the exam questions in this world couldn't match him.
But the practical battle exam was another story.
During this section, students had to command their Pokémon in battle, and they would be graded based on their performance.
Which meant—
If Julian wanted a high score, he had to change Slakoth's Ability today.
And once again, the problem returned to the beginning.
How could he raise Slakoth's level?
Generally speaking, there were two ways to increase a Pokémon's level.
1. Training
Pokémon could slowly gain experience through training over time.
But this method was far too slow.
Even a full day might not be enough for Slakoth to level up.
And besides…
Slakoth still had the Ability Truant.
Getting it to train seriously would be harder than climbing to the heavens.
So that option was immediately ruled out.
2. Battle
Battling other Pokémon was much more efficient.
Whether they won or lost, Pokémon would still gain experience points.
In that sense, it worked somewhat like the games.
But there was another problem.
Julian didn't currently have a suitable opponent.
And even if he did…
Whether Slakoth could actually win was questionable.
Julian frowned.
There was technically a third method.
Pokémon could consume energy-rich items such as:
Secret treasures
Energy Cubes
Other enhancement items
These could directly boost a Pokémon's level.
But the issue was obvious.
Even the lowest-grade secret treasure cost tens of thousands of yuan.
A single can of Energy Cubes cost over 1,000 yuan.
And Julian was currently flat broke.
For a moment, the situation seemed like a dead end.
"Hm?"
Suddenly, a spark of inspiration flashed in Julian's mind.
He had just obtained a Basic Modification opportunity, hadn't he?
According to the system description, Basic Modification produced random rewards.
If he drew money, secret treasures, or Energy Cubes, he could immediately use them to raise Slakoth's level.
And if he got something like a Rare Candy…
Things would become even easier.
Julian didn't hesitate.
He opened the modification panel and selected Basic Modification.
The host has consumed 1 Basic Modification attempt. Drawing reward…
A spinning roulette wheel appeared in front of Julian.
It began spinning rapidly.
He could vaguely see four sections on the wheel.
Items — more than half the wheel
Money — about a quarter
Clues — about a quarter
??? — a tiny sliver
The final section was only about one-twentieth of the wheel.
According to the system's explanation, that was the Special Reward area.
With such a tiny probability, Julian didn't really expect to hit it.
What he needed most right now was simply Items or Money.
The roulette spun faster and faster.
Then gradually slowed down.
The pointer passed the Items section.
Then slowly moved past Money.
Finally…
It stopped on Clues.
Julian sighed.
"Well… looks like I'll have to find another way to level up Slakoth."
But just as he frowned.
The wheel suddenly twitched.
The pointer moved one tiny step further, barely leaving the Clues section and landing on the next area.
Ding! Congratulations, Host! Your luck has exploded!
You have obtained a mysterious reward!
Julian's eyes widened.
"…That's possible?!"
