Chapter 503 A Battle of Beauty and Brilliance
Although the battle hadn't caused any damage to the Golden Gyarados, Li Shuwen still examined its body and applied some wound medicine.
Li Shuwen fed the Golden Gyarados a bottle of high-energy supplement and then sent it off to train.
Golden Gyarados's favorite training opponent right now is Milton.
Not only because battling Milton allows the Golden Gyarados to fully demonstrate its flying abilities.
Furthermore, Milton's electricity can make the Golden Gyarados stronger!
When the Rising Dragon ability is not triggered, Golden Gyarados is a Water/Flying type and is very weak to Electric.
Just like before, the golden Gyarados easily used Thunder to bring the red Gyarados back to its senses.
The massive golden body of the Golden Gyarados coiled in the air, gleaming with a luxurious luster in the sunlight.
The golden Gyarados raised its head and let out a deep roar, indicating that it was ready.
The conductive tubes on both sides of Millerton's head lit up slightly and emitted a low hum.
The azure electronic eye flashed rapidly, precisely calculating the required current output.
Milerton was instantly enveloped in a burst of brilliant blue-silver electricity, which, like living tentacles, precisely wrapped around the massive body of the Golden Gyarados.
The golden Gyarados let out a roar that was a mixture of pain and pleasure the moment the electric current hit its body.
The blue-silver currents did not merely flow across the surface of the body, but rather, like countless tiny needles, pierced through the gaps in the scales and reached deeper tissues!
A strong numbing and tingling sensation spread throughout the body, causing every inch of the Golden Gyarados's muscles and every bone to be evenly hammered and forged by countless tiny electric hammers.
In Li Shuwen's waveguide vision, countless tiny golden spots seemed to light up inside the Golden Gyarados.
Activated by the blue-silver current, they quickly linked together and flowed with unprecedented efficiency, permeating every part of the body.
In particular, the dragon scales covering its entire body gradually transformed from their original magnificent gold color to a deeper, more profound texture, resembling liquid gold.
The edges of the dragon scales faintly reflected blue-silver afterimages of lightning, giving them a mysterious and noble appearance.
The Kommo-o-Tai was so envious!
The Staff-tailed Armored Dragon has been polishing its scales using various methods.
Which of these Pokémon in the yard hasn't been asked for help by Kommo-o?
But the scales of the Staff-tailed Armored Dragon are so simple and unadorned, with a faint metallic luster.
Sometimes, the color of dragon scales is indeed very important.
Kommo-o-Tai shook its head violently. Kommo-o-Tai, how could you be so obsessed with the mere color of your scales!
For the sake of beauty, are you even giving up the pursuit of strength?
The Staff-tailed Armored Dragon asked itself a question, and its eyes regained their resolve.
The Golden Gyarados does indeed have beautiful scales, and it can even fly.
However, it doesn't significantly improve the Golden Gyarados's combat power.
Moreover, the scales of the Staff-tailed Armored Dragon are actually quite beautiful.
It only paled in comparison to the golden scales of the Golden Gyarados.
Li Shuwen walked up to the Staff-tailed Armored Dragon, smiled and patted it, "I found a recipe, I'll make it for you tonight."
"It is said that rubbing this ointment on dragon scales can make them even more beautiful."
As night fell and the stars twinkled, Li Shuwen took out a jar of specially prepared green ointment that exuded a refreshing herbal scent.
This is a maintenance ointment carefully formulated by Li Shuwen based on information provided by Dr. Yamanashi and combined with several local tree fruits in Veil City that have polishing and energy affinity properties.
Li Shuwen gestured for the Staff-Tailed Armored Dragon to lie down, then dipped his finger in the paste and began to carefully apply it to the silver scales covering its entire body.
The ointment had a cool feel, and as Li Shuwen rubbed and wiped it with even pressure, it slowly seeped into the fine texture of the scales.
Kommo-o'-the-Tails comfortably squinted its eyes, letting out a low growl, enjoying the trainer's care.
Before long, the already lustrous silver dragon scales were infused with new vitality.
The special ingredients in the ointment resonate with the energy of the dragon scales themselves, causing the scales to shimmer with a purer and brighter silver sheen.
It swirls under the moonlight, as if it has been cleansed by the frost descended from the moon palace.
The increased brightness makes it look cleaner and more refined, without any impurities.
Li Shuwen stopped what he was doing, looked at his transformed partner, and a gentle smile appeared on his face.
He gently patted the sturdy scales of the Staff-tailed Armored Dragon, his tone filled with affirmation and encouragement.
"Look, with careful maintenance, your silver dragon scales are just as beautiful, shining with a unique luster."
The Staff-tailed Armored Dragon looked down at its gleaming scales, then looked up at Li Shuwen, a hint of pride and fighting spirit flashing in its eyes.
He nodded vigorously, letting out a short, powerful growl in response to Li Shuwen's praise.
Seeing that Li Shuwen had finished his work, Millerton quickly landed beside Li Shuwen, its streamlined metal tail swaying gently.
With a slightly obsequious smile, Milton's intentions couldn't be clearer.
Looking at Milton's posture, which seemed somewhat inconsistent with its legendary Pokémon identity, Li Shuwen couldn't help but chuckle.
Millerton also wanted his own personalized care.
Li Shuwen smiled and shook his head, reaching out to pat the cool, smooth shell of the Millerton, soothingly saying:
"Alright, alright, I know you want it too. Don't worry, I'll get you a suitable ointment tomorrow."
Li Shuwen kept his word and immediately contacted Dr. Yamanashi upon returning home.
Based on his analysis of the Millerton energy conduction model in the database, Dr. Yamanashi offered several key suggestions for adjusting the formula.
The main focus is on enhancing energy conductivity and maintaining surface metal activity.
Early the next morning, Li Shuwen went into the kitchen and, based on Dr. Yamanashi's advice, adjusted the original ointment formula, replacing several tree fruits and materials suitable for Millerton.
After careful preparation, a new type of ointment with a faint purple sheen and a clearer texture was created.
Millerton, who had been waiting for a long time, obediently lay down in the backyard and let Li Shuwen apply the ointment to him.
The ointment touched Millerton's futuristic armored shell, triggering a subtle blue-purple electrical current.
The ointment was then quickly absorbed, leaving only a very faint halo.
Li Shuwen carefully applied the ointment evenly to each of Millerton's "scales," especially key areas such as joints and energy conduits.
After maintenance, the metallic sheen of Millerton became even deeper and more understated.
The sleek lines of the armor have been refined to a higher level, making the overall futuristic and technological feel even more prominent.
At the same time, the electric arcs that occasionally jumped around Millerton seemed to become more agile, and the flow of energy was slightly smoother.
Millerton let out a pleasant low growl and happily nuzzled Li Shuwen with its head, clearly very satisfied with the tailor-made treatment.
Milerton was Li Shuwen's beloved little motorcycle, so naturally it needed to be carefully maintained.
