Chapter 304 Ying Zheng: I Hate My Family of Origin
Upon hearing Mayana's words, Wei Xin's brain began to uncontrollably integrate the known information.
Being of mixed race, and considering that there aren't many people Maya considers important, in conclusion—
Wei Xin blurted out in surprise, "Ying Zheng is a human-Pokémon hybrid?"
A human-Pokémon hybrid? The sudden revelation left everyone stunned, their expressions filled with excitement.
Is history finally about to become wild?
"No, His Majesty is undoubtedly the legitimate heir of the Great Qin Dynasty," Maya denied.
The excitement on everyone's faces vanished.
"Ah, so the real mixed-race person is Prince Fusu." Wei Xin suddenly realized.
Your Majesty, this is improper of you.
Wei Xin integrated the known information in his mind and realized it made sense.
There is no clear record of Fusu's biological mother in history. In his early years, Ying Zheng cared a lot about his biological mother. However, in the end, his mother chose to betray him for an outsider and for two half-siblings. She even went so far as to rebel and try to kill him.
The more Ying Zheng cared about his mother, the more he cared about the hurt caused by her betrayal.
Most people would shut down their hearts and love after experiencing a minor heartbreak, let alone Ying Zheng, who was lonely all his life and repeatedly betrayed. He probably even had PTSD.
If Ying Zheng were to angrily rebuke his biological mother, no one would criticize him.
However, as an emperor, one must have a suitable successor, and it cannot be one's own brothers, sisters, uncles, or aunts.
Coupled with the psychological trauma from their family of origin, it's understandable that they would choose a Pokémon that is loyal to them and will not betray them.
Moreover, the ancients spent far more money on games than modern people do.
Although people in ancient times could never play with Kobe.
Maya neither confirmed nor denied it.
That was a part of history that belonged to the Qin Dynasty, a period that everyone avoided talking about.
Cynthia's eyes sharpened as she realized what was happening. Putting aside the secret history Magiana had mentioned, why did Wei Xin react so quickly?
Is he just smart, or is he also a Pokémon-human hybrid?
According to her research on history, there are indeed records of people combining with Pokémon in ancient times, which even triggered many incidents. Some people speculate that this is also the origin of many humanoid Pokémon.
However, the principle of combining Pokémon to breed Pokémon eggs remains an unsolved mystery, even in modern times when Pokémon sex, egg breed systems, and breeding theories are nearly perfected.
Cynthia frowned, leaned down and whispered in Wei Xin's ear, "I'm sorry."
The blood test results exceeded her expectations. If it were a mix of people from different regions, that would be fine; with the League established and various regions interacting and integrating extensively, intermarriage has become commonplace. But human-Pokémon hybrids—
According to modern laws and ethics, the act of combining humans with Pokémon and related research are explicitly prohibited by the League.
Human-Pokémon hybrids are likely to face discrimination in modern society.
She simply couldn't imagine what Wei Xin had endured growing up alone with such a heavy identity, keeping it a secret from everyone, and how much harm and pressure this identity had brought him.
And he had never told anyone about it.
If they had known Wei Xin's background earlier, they would never have made such a joke.
"Don't worry about it, I only found out about this more than two months ago."
Wei Xin was not disappointed at all; on the contrary, he comforted Xilona, saying that he never cared about his bloodline.
What's wrong with hybrids? Hybrids have super high intelligence, super strong physical strength, super good looks, and can breathe fire, blow wind, accelerate time, and even grow horns and wings when pushed to the limit.
He's incredibly handsome!
There is also a scholarship of $40,000 per year.
That felt amazing!
Moreover, as a sunny and cheerful young man, he has absolutely nothing to do with Blood Sorrow.
The only thing he had to worry about was that if the people around him found out, they would be tempted to hit him on the head with high-end balls, and he knew that he was still attractive.
Nemo and Piper apologized to Weixin together. Nemo didn't understand Weixin and Cynthia's conversation and only thought that their joke had gone a bit too far.
Although after spending some time together, Wei Xin showed great generosity, tolerance, and emotional stability, never spoiling the fun, even though some of his jokes later felt too cheesy to them.
The problem is that most of the hellish jokes were proposed by Wei Xin himself.
Piper was slow to realize the truth, but he didn't care about Wei Xin's background at all. So what if he was mixed-race? Wei Xin didn't need bloodlines to prove himself. Everything he had achieved was earned through his own hard work.
From the moment Wei Xin cured the Mastiff Godfather, Papa only cared about Wei Xin himself.
Maya sprayed a bouquet of flowers from her hands and congratulated him, "Congratulations, Lord Wei Xin, you have passed the second test."
Wei Xin did not question the exam results. After all, the Donghuang people were a nation that inscribed auspiciousness and supernatural elements into their history: King Zhou and Daji, Xu Xian and Bai Suzhen, Ning Caichen and Nie Xiaoqian—
The Pokémon of the Eastern Empire are the orthodox ones, and also the legitimate ones.
Magiana said, "Although the Cursed Armor and Celebration Armor you requested are not in the tomb, I have preserved the crafting techniques. The necessary materials can be obtained from the Bronze Mirror Monster, so you can forge a set directly. As for the Laurel Gold Coins, there will definitely be enough for you in the tomb. Next is my final test, which is also my personal request."
"Go ahead and say it."
Maya gazed into Wei Xin's eyes, her tone sincere: "I hope that after you inherit the tomb, you will grant us our freedom."
"free?"
"Yes, legally speaking, you inherited the tomb, and naturally you also inherited us. However, our era has passed, and we do not wish to leave Your Majesty. Whether in life or after death, betrayal and departure are the things Your Majesty hates the most."
The Qin Dynasty ended long ago; their hearts were reduced to ashes along with the fire in Xianyang.
Wei Xin was silent for a moment. Through telepathy, he understood that this was not the third test. Maya would not tell him afterward that this was just a test, and that they truly longed for freedom.
Saying you don't want Magearna, Hoopa, or Flareon is definitely a lie. Ancient Shiny Magearna and Flareon are Pokémon that cannot be obtained through normal means.
but----
"Alright," Wei Xin finally chose to let go. As the successor, he respected the Qin Dynasty and also respected the Pokémon's own will. "I will give you your freedom."
This time, Maya didn't offer flowers to congratulate Wei Xin on passing the test. Instead, she and Huayedi bowed to Wei Xin and whispered, "Thank you."
"But you don't need to worry. Although we don't belong to you, there is still an unactivated Magiana in the tomb, crafted by the same artisan as me. I will awaken her for you, and I will also pass on to you the method for cultivating the Flower of Eternity, if you wish."
"Of course!" Wei Xin's expression changed from sorrow to joy.
You should have said so earlier! You really made me feel so disappointed.
My previously dejected and silent heart has now been stirred up into a tremendous upheaval.
One Eternal Flower petal stem, one Ancient Variegated Magiana Nine Clans Ultimate Edition. If there weren't so many people in the room, he would have excitedly run outside, spread his arms, slid around on the grass in the garden, and then run back into the room, excitedly punching the air while stepping on a chair.
"Alright, my exam is over. Your next examiner is Huayedi," Magiyana said. Huayedi floated to Magiyana's ear and whispered something. Magiyana nodded. "I understand."
She told Wei Xin, "Hua Yedi has three tests in total. They're called tests, but they're actually a commission she's given to you."
"Tell me, and I'll do my best." Wei Xin took out his notebook and wrote down the task.
"Firstly, it's about accomplishing a great feat that ordinary people would find difficult to achieve. Considering that you saved Hoenn, this matter can be considered accomplished. Secondly, it's about retrieving the six Ancient Poké Balls."
"Ancient Poké Ball?" Cynthia murmured.
"Wait a moment," Wei Xin returned to the room and found the Rathalos Drum Poké Ball in the cabinet. "Is this the Poké Ball?"
Magearna nodded: "Yes, there are five more Poké Balls like these. His Majesty instructed us before he passed away to ask the next generation to collect them. As for the reason, His Majesty did not explain."
Seeing the uniquely shaped Poké Ball in Wei Xin's hand, Cynthia immediately became interested.
"May I take a look at this Poké Ball?"
"Can!"
Wei Xin handed the Poké Ball to Cynthia. After examining it carefully, she frowned. As an ancient Poké Ball, the one excavated and restored from the Xicui Ruins used a steam principle, was made of wood and metal, and was extremely heavy.
Throwing it at full power could even knock out a wild Pokémon.
But this Ancient Eastern Poké Ball is completely different. Not only is it finely crafted and lightweight, but it also uses an unknown material that is extremely sturdy. Most importantly, there are no mechanisms or buttons on its surface.
"Can I try to open it?" Cynthia asked after confirming that the Poké Ball was very sturdy.
"Okay," Wei Xin said.
"A slightly rougher approach will also work," Mayaya added confidently.
After receiving permission, Cynthia exerted force with her arm, but the Poké Ball showed no sign of opening. She frowned, puzzled.
Magearna explained, "This Poké Ball is made from fragments of the Judgment Pot, which possesses a certain spatial power and cannot be opened by brute force or mechanisms."
"A fragment of the Jar of Punishment?" Wei Xin exclaimed in surprise. The Jar of Punishment contained the shadow of Hoopa, which held terrifying power. Without the Jar of Punishment, it meant—
Is Hoopa in its complete form now?
