A brief silence fell over the laboratory, and everyone’s gaze was fixed on the Eevee in the glass container.
After a moment, Dr. Bulano sighed, the pride and stubbornness on his face finally turning into a resigned acceptance: “Jiang Mo, I admit you are more capable than I am.”
“I said that as long as you could solve this problem, this Eevee would be yours. Now, I will fulfill my promise.”
Jiang Mo smiled slightly and nodded after hearing this: “Thank you, Doctor, but I hope you understand one thing: Pokémon research is not about proving who is stronger, and Pokémon are not a group of unconscious tools.”
Dr. Bulano was silent for a moment, then finally nodded: “You are right, perhaps I did go astray before…”
Before he finished speaking, the liquid in the glass container suddenly brightened, and Eevee’s body slowly floated up, radiating a seven-colored glow.
Then, it slowly opened its eyes, which held an unprecedented spirituality and vitality.
Lingxi couldn’t help but exclaim softly: “It’s awake! And it looks completely different!”
The liquid in the glass container was quickly drained, and the laboratory’s robotic arm gently placed Eevee on the ground.
In fact, Eevee could sense the outside world slightly while in the glass container, and it was truly the young man before it who gave it a second life.
After Eevee stood firm, it tilted its head and looked at Jiang Mo, then affectionately rubbed against his arm, as if it had long recognized him as its master.
Jiang Mo looked down at it, a trace of a smile in his eyes, and said: “From now on, you will follow me.”
“Bui ~”
Eevee let out a clear cry, as if responding to his words.

Evaluation: After being purified by Mew’s hair, it has become a successful experimental subject, possessing the ability to freely evolve into various Eevee forms.
According to Dr. Bulano’s research findings, his cloned Pokémon at least possessed Gym Leader Class strength.
However, that was achieved at the cost of their lifespan. Now, Eevee’s lifespan problem has been resolved by Mew’s hair, so it no longer needs to sacrifice lifespan for strength.
Therefore, Eevee’s strength has temporarily stabilized at Level 40, but seeing its current energetic state, breaking through to Elite Level is just around the corner.
The laboratory was very quiet at this moment, but Dr. Bulano did not leave; instead, he stared intently at the Eevee before him.
Although Jiang Mo had solved Eevee’s lifespan problem, he still had doubts.
“Jiang Mo, although this Eevee’s lifespan problem has been resolved, I still have one question.”
Dr. Bulano said in a deep voice, “Can it truly achieve autonomous evolution and devolution? After all, that was the original intention of my research on this Eevee.”
Upon hearing this, Jiang Mo raised an eyebrow; he couldn’t guarantee that either. What if Mew’s hair had only turned it into an ordinary Eevee?
However, Jiang Mo was still very confident, as the game panel’s evaluation was still there.
He reached out and gently stroked Eevee’s head, saying softly: “Doctor, since this is your question, let us prove it with facts.”
“Eevee, evolve!”
......
Eevee stood blankly in place, tilted its head, and then looked at Jiang Mo with a puzzled expression. It seemed that it had not fully understood the concept of “evolution and devolution.”
The atmosphere was a bit awkward for a moment, but Jiang Mo was thick-skinned and pretended that nothing had happened.
Lingxi and the others also looked away, pretending they hadn’t seen anything.
Jiang Mo gently closed his eyes and began to activate the Tokiwa Power within his body.
A soft yet powerful green light overflowed from his palm, bathing the entire laboratory in a vibrant glow.
“Bui?”
Eevee looked up at the warm green light, blinked, and approached curiously.
Jiang Mo gently placed his hand on Eevee’s back, slowly injecting the Tokiwa Power into its body.
Eevee was instantly enveloped by this warm power, letting out a comfortable cry. Its limbs unconsciously relaxed, and its eyes showed satisfaction and pleasure.
“Eevee, next I want you to try to evolve.”
Jiang Mo conveyed his intention to Eevee through the Tokiwa Power, while also drawing concepts of several evolved forms in its mind.
Eevee sensed Jiang Mo’s thoughts, hesitated for a moment, but quickly nodded, and a faint light began to emanate from its body.
This light gradually intensified, then turned into a fiery red.
“This is, Flareon…” Lingxi exclaimed.
As the fiery red light dissipated, Eevee had transformed into a flame-like Flareon. Its fur pulsed like scorching flames, emitting waves of intense heat.
It tried moving its limbs, felt the changes in its body, and couldn’t help but let out an excited Growl.
“Very good, now try to devolve back.”
Jiang Mo transmitted the command again, and Flareon’s light gradually dimmed, finally returning to its original Eevee form.
This time, Jiang Mo did not stop, but let Eevee continue to try.
Eevee evolved again, this time transforming into a Jolteon, whose body sparkled with yellow electricity.
After devolving, it became a Vaporeon, followed by Leafeon, Glaceon, Sylveon, Espeon, and Umbreon.
Each evolution and devolution consumed a large amount of Eevee’s stamina, but it consistently completed every command from Jiang Mo until the last round of evolution ended. It finally collapsed on the ground, panting.
Jiang Mo squatted down, gently stroked its head with his hand, and said with a smile: “You worked hard, Eevee, you did very well.”
Eevee felt his comfort, struggled to lift its head, and rubbed against his hand, letting out a low cry, as if acting spoiled.
Dr. Bulano witnessed the entire process, his face filled with shock.
He couldn’t believe that the subject he had researched for twenty years was so easily completed by Jiang Mo.
He slowly opened his mouth, his voice filled with disbelief, saying: “This… this is truly a perfect evolution and devolution mechanism! And, all eight forms can switch so freely…”
Jiang Mo stood up and smiled slightly: “Doctor, do you believe it now? Not only has this Eevee’s lifespan problem been resolved, but its evolutionary potential has also fully met your expected goals.”
Dr. Bulano was stunned for a long time, then finally let out a long sigh, looking at Jiang Mo with a complex expression: “Kid, I’m impressed. From today onwards, this Eevee truly belongs to you. I hope you treat it well and unleash its potential to the fullest.”
