Time goes back to nearly an hour ago.
Qie Feng Temple, in the main hall deep in the underground palace.
A huge seat made entirely of special stone, dozens of meters high at a glance, stood in the center of the hall.
And sitting on this stone chair is a "statue" that is even taller and majestic than the stone chair, like a giant.
This "statue" has no head, only a huge white torso. There is a huge bar-shaped protrusion in the center of the torso, with seven round holes in the shape of the Big Dipper.
Near the hole of the Big Dipper, three pairs of huge eye-like objects are evenly distributed on both sides of the bar-shaped bulge.
It is thick and long, very close to the shape of a human arm, but there are only three finger-like objects hanging on both sides of the torso, quietly placed on the armrest of the stone chair, motionless.
It is sleeping.
He should have continued to sleep.
until……
From somewhere, a black air mass exuding strong negative energy suddenly floated into the underground palace and came to this huge statue.
The moment he saw the statue, the black air mass instantly expanded into a huge circular air mass, then stretched and expanded around, then quickly shrank back, repeating this process, looking extremely excited.
"...
"…………"
After the brief excitement, indistinct murmurs continued to sound in the black air mass, echoing around.
This black air ball kept wandering around the statue, testing it, but it always seemed to be undecided and undecided, and it did not make the next move.
It wasn't until a commanding voice sounded that he approached the statue.
The closer it gets, the faster and faster the black air mass expands and stretches. The excited look seems to have felt the power of this being that has been sleeping for countless years.
And as long as the possession is successful, you can control this body.
The temptation of power made the black air mass move faster and faster, and the distance got closer and closer, until it came to the statue's torso, where the huge bar-shaped bulge began to gradually gather the black air, and then merged directly into it without any hindrance. Part of it goes in.
This unusually smooth integration process made the black air mass begin to tremble.
Not for other reasons, but because the parts that have been integrated feel it. The infinite power truly contained in this statue makes them feel excited from the bottom of their hearts.
The power of just a part of the body far exceeds the sum of all the Pokémon they invaded before. If it can be completely occupied, the power that bursts out will reach an unimaginable level.
But it can only be if.
In the empty and dim underground palace, with only a faint light shining in, three rays of light suddenly lit up.
Red, blue, gray...
The three colors of light flash alternately. The light is obviously not very strong, but it has a tendency to illuminate the entire underground palace.
The black air mass did not notice the sudden movement at all. It was still erupting with the air mass full of rich negative energy, constantly trying to integrate into the statue.
In silence...
The statue began to shake slightly.
Without any reaction time, the three colors of red, blue and gray light suddenly surged, as if a sleeping beast suddenly opened its eyes. The statue shook to its maximum in an instant, and then, even the entire underground palace shook. stand up!
"Lei... Ji... Qi... Ka... Si..."
A heavy and electric whisper echoed in the empty hall.
Along with the whispers came a strong feeling of anger.
Driven by this emotion, the huge statue sitting on the stone chair supported the armrests of the stone chair with both arms and slowly... stood up.
Legend has it that the giant Pokémon that dragged the continent along, the Pillar King Regichkas—awakens!
At this moment, Heiqi finally realized that something was not right about the situation. How could the guy who should have fallen into a deep sleep wake up so quickly.
He quickly pulled out the part that had been integrated into it, stretched it violently, and the air ball immediately flew toward the top of the underground palace at an extremely fast speed.
But it is fast, and there are things faster than it.
A violent wind sound suddenly sounded in the underground palace.
The part that was originally hanging on the armrest of the stone chair and resembled an arm was swung out instantly, without giving the black air mass any time to react, and directly grabbed it across a distance of tens of meters.
No matter how hard he struggled, the three fingers that grabbed the black air mass were like a seal, suppressing it tightly, leaving no possibility of escape.
Then there was a long silence. The frantically struggling black air mass and the constantly shaking underground palace seemed to have no impact on the "statue" standing on the stone chair. Even the hand stayed there as if time had paused. Mid-air.
It wasn't until the flashing three-color light on the torso no longer lit up alternately, but all lit up, that the stretched out arm slowly retracted and was placed in front of the three pairs of three-color round holes on the chest.
The next moment, as if he had discovered something extremely disgusting, an earth-shaking roar sounded.
"Lei... Ji... Qi... Ka... Si!!!"
Terrifying fluctuations formed by gray general energy erupted from the statue, instantly dispersing all the various things accumulated on its body due to its slumber, revealing its originally huge body that was mainly white.
In addition to these accumulations, the one that bore the brunt and suffered the greatest impact was the captured black air mass.
Almost in a moment, the originally strong air mass was washed away by the powerful energy like a candle in the wind, leaving only a wisp of inconspicuous black gas.
And in this wisp of black gas, a faint black cage loomed.
Rejichikas glanced lightly with three pairs of eyes. The terrifying surge of energy suddenly covered the entire palm, and his fingers exerted force instantly.
Exclusive move - crush!
Buzz…
Bang! ! !
A dull buzzing sound suddenly sounded in the air, followed immediately by an earth-shattering sonic boom, which completely erupted in the underground palace.
Even the stone chair it was sitting on was cracked by the explosion.
The black energy that was attacked from the front and the contents inside the black energy were completely crushed and dissipated into the invisible.
After confirming that the other party had completely disappeared, Rejichikas shook the hand that had just grabbed the black air ball in disgust. After that, he seemed to be dissatisfied with this behavior. He squatted down and rubbed his hand heavily on the ground a few times. After taking it off, he patted the dust on his hands with satisfaction.
After doing all this, Rejichikas stood still like that, as if thinking, as if in a daze, with three pairs of eyes emitting strong light, illuminating the entire underground palace.
"Lei...Ji..."
As if attracted by this light, Rejichikas looked around. The underground palace had experienced the terrifying energy fluctuations just now, but everything remained almost intact.
Regichicas didn't feel any strange about this situation, and after a slight hesitation, his body sank slightly.
Two Optimus Prime-like legs stepped on the ground of the underground palace, jumped up hard, and two thick arms penetrated directly through the underground palace and came to the main hall of the Chifeng Temple.
Then the two arms grabbing the ground exerted force, and the huge body directly crashed through the underground palace and the Chifeng Temple. The nearly 100-meter-tall giant came to the ground.
Ignoring the cries of those around him who were like ants to him, and the demonstrations of those tiny Pokémon, Regichkas slowly raised his hand and waved it out fiercely.
In an instant, with an overwhelming palm, he directly smashed away the long-standing Chifeng Temple that had not been completely destroyed by its jump just now.
…
the other side.
The cold wind whistled in the ears, and the huge body of Super Seadramon quickly shuttled through the snow.
On top of its head, Qingliu frowned slightly.
"That is to say, due to some unknown but angry reason, Regichkas woke up early, broke through the underground palace specially built by the ancient survivors, destroyed the Chifeng Temple but did not attack and hurt anyone, and then Just left and went north?"
"Yes."
Shenzi wrapped the clothes Qingyanagi had just handed her tightly and said, "Because of the special ability inherited from my family, I had already sensed signs of its early awakening. In addition, there were constant vibrations in the underground palace at that time, but it However, we did not break through the temple immediately, so we were given plenty of time to evacuate. Only three police officers in charge of security were slightly injured due to flying rocks."
After listening to Shenzi's comprehensive description, Qingliu fell into deep thought.
Regardless of why he woke up early, it was said that there were constant noises in the underground palace, but he did not break open the underground palace and leave without everyone being prepared after waking up. Instead, he waited for a while before taking action. This point is a bit subtle. .
This made Qingliu think of what Lugia had said last time.
"They" will try not to interfere with the normal development of human beings, nor will they interfere in matters between humans.
If Regichicas's operation was not out of self-indulgence, then there is a high probability that it was on the same side as Lugia.
But, then again, if it is on the same front, then it should continue to sleep, and at most it will wake up when the huge glacier moves in Qifeng City in the future and is about to cause huge damage.
Why did you wake up more than three years early?
Qingliu turned around and looked at Shenzi next to him who was obviously feeling uncomfortable due to the cold wind.
While hiding the specific timeline, citing his close relationship with Sirona, a person who is very knowledgeable about mythology, Aoyagi asked Shenzi if he had noticed anything wrong.
"I didn't expect Mr. Aoyagi and Miss Sirona to pay attention to its sleeping time."
Shenzi first sighed and then said: "Just like what I said to Miss Xiaosong on the phone, I only know that it was very angry when it just woke up. For others, I have a weak bloodline and can't feel any difference, but...
"After the call was cut off, the police officer who came from Lake Wisdom to call for help mentioned a piece of information that concerned me very much before leaving with Mr. Sheppard."
At this point, the expression of the Son of God became solemn: "He said, 'Sleeping deep in the Lake of Wisdom, one of the gods of the lake appeared in the form of a pitch-black soul body, and actively launched an attack on them. Emergency support.'
"Since Mr. Aoyagi has done some research on mythology, he should know the meaning of this, right?"
"Um."
Qingliu nodded.
The Gods of the Lake, also known as the Three Holy Mushrooms, even if they appear in the form of a soul body, can only be seen by people it thinks are suitable for its abilities. It is a legendary Pokémon that can only appear in front of specific people. .
But now it appears in front of everyone, and the soul body that should be crystal clear is actually black...
Qingliu couldn't help but breathe heavily for a moment.
The thing that can cause this kind of change and affect the Pokémon, causing it to violently attack people, is one of the things he has come into contact with recently, and that thing makes him very afraid.
Suspected to be a fusion of dark Pokémon and dark matter...
If it is this thing, then it can be explained that Regichkas woke up early.
Once possessed, in a sense, one becomes a puppet in a void world.
However, judging from the series of actions in which Regichicas did not attack anyone, and Miss Shenzi did not find anything wrong and left directly, it should not have been infected.
The three holy mushrooms in Lake Wisdom should not be so lucky.
Even though they are direct creations of Arceus, their abilities are not of the combat type. What Regichkas can deal with, it may not necessarily be able to deal with.
However, this does not mean that the second level gods are weak.
After what Kikuno said last time, the legendary Pokémon in recent years have become stronger inexplicably. She has never tried whether she can stably win a level 2 god.
Even the Four Heavenly Kings need to deal with legendary Pokémon with caution. As an above-average gym trainer, Xiao Siong's father has no ability to compete head-on.
But even so, after hearing that the situation in Wisdom Lake was very dangerous, he still took a few people without hesitation to support Miss Junsha who was stationed in Wisdom Lake.
and……
Looking at the current situation, if he were not in Qifeng City, there would most likely not be any reinforcements.
Facing the second-level god who was infected by that weird energy, one can imagine what the outcome would be like for Xuebei, Junsha, and all the personnel stationed there.
It can only be said that based on the situation last time when we were growing winter melons and vegetables, it would be very miserable.
"How long have Mr. Sheppard and the others been there?"
Qingliu asked.
Shenzi was silent for a moment and said: "Mr. Qingliu left about half an hour before you came. According to their speed, it should have been more than ten minutes."
"Ten minutes..."
Qingliu's eyes drooped slightly.
A second-level god who is at least one of the strongest among the Four Heavenly Kings. Against someone who has not even reached the level of the strongest gym trainer, once a battle breaks out, it will almost be a one-shot kill.
Even if it takes ten seconds to kill one, there are six in total in one system, and ten minutes is enough to clear the corpse nine more times.
Qingliu couldn't help but think of the despair on Xiao Song's face after learning the news of her father's death, and how she had to comfort herself with this despair that she was fine even if she was not saved.
And with Xuebei, a person like him who can definitely be regarded as a role model among all the gym trainers in the Sinnoh region, gone, the gyms in Sinnoh will once again return to the ranks of parallel imports.
We must hurry up!
"Originally, I wanted to find a suitable opportunity for you to evolve, but now it seems... we have to advance it."
While talking, Qingliu took out a Poké Ball.
