Passing through Route 113, which was covered with volcanic ash all year round, Xiaozhi and the others soon came to a small town.
Autumn Leaf Town.
This is a farming town, and the surfaces of the houses and streets are also covered with a thick layer of volcanic ash.
But these volcanic ash are natural high-grade fertilizers. The soil is rich in nitrogen, phosphorus and potassium, and has also opened up vast arable land around Qiuye Town.
Even though the temperature is not too high, crops still grow very luxuriantly.
The grass-type Pokémon here can even get higher health recovery by using the rooting technique.
Xiaozhi and the three of them walked and stopped all the way, and finally officially entered this small town at night.
"The Autumn Leaves Gorgeous Contest will be held the day after tomorrow!"
The huge billboard at the entrance of the Pokémon Center instantly attracted the attention of the three people.
Xiaozhi touched his head. After the last disastrous defeat, he didn't have much desire to avenge his shame in the gorgeous competition.
If there wasn't that score bar, just defeating the opponent wouldn't be considered a victory. He would choose to continue participating, but now... he has little interest.
"The gorgeous contest is good, you can take a look!"
Xiaogang's eyes gradually became more intense. This kind of competition is indispensable without a good-looking big sister.
"Gorgeous contest..."
Xiao Lan was holding the billboard with one hand, thoughtfully.
Unlike Xiaogang or Xiaozhi, she had goals and directions from the beginning... Now she is still living a life of taking things as they come.
Subconsciously, Xiaolan doesn't even think about this idea. What's the problem?
In life, happiness is enough.
However, the last time he successfully won an ordinary-level ribbon, it proved that Xiao Lan had good talent as a coordination trainer.
"Well, you can take part and have a look..."
Xiaolan nodded and made up her mind.
Of course, it's not that she has the dream of becoming a coordination trainer, it's just a simple idea of "since you have won one game, you should continue to win."
"In that case, let's stay here for two days."
Xiaozhi nodded, but didn't urge anything.
Now that he has collected half of the badges, he has more than enough time and is in no rush.
It was just that a few people had just given their Pokémon to Miss Joy for magic repair, and were leisurely chatting and eating in the lounge.
"Beep! Interrupt an urgent message now!"
At this time, the public television next to him suddenly switched to the news channel.
The person in the picture is also very familiar to Xiaozhi and the others. It is the reporter Mary who they had met once before.
The background is Chimney Mountain where they landed just a few days ago.
It seems that reporter Mary should be at the summit square of Chimney Mountain now.
"The Lava Team made a high-profile announcement today that their leader recently received a dream from the God of the Earth Groudon... A terrible volcanic eruption will occur in Chimney Mountain in three days. We hope that the people can evacuate safely under the guidance of Groudon." ."
Miss Mary introduced with a serious face, it seemed to be live broadcast.
When they received the news, even their officials were shocked.
However, geological experts have also conducted research. It is unlikely that Chimney Mountain will undergo a large-scale volcanic eruption for at least a hundred years...at most, it will spew fertile volcanic ash near Akiye Town and Route 113 once a year.
It's just that Team Lava used the honor of their group as a guarantee and vowed to do so, which made their officials have no idea for a while.
But in the end, it was three Miss Junsha stationed at Chimney Mountain who brought the news and informed them of the bomb incident.
Without evidence, they naturally can't do anything against Team Lava.
"However, after overnight investigation by our experts, it is certain that there will be no volcanic eruption in Chimney Mountain within ten years. I hope everyone can believe in science and there is no need to cause any riots."
In the end, the TV station defined this matter as a battle between science and metaphysics...
Team Lava, who has Groudon's dream, is obviously even more untenable in the face of science.
This is a good opportunity for their Pokémon League to take a good hit on Team Lava's reputation!
"So it's really the guy from Team Lava who planted the bomb. These guys...!"
Xiaozhi frowned, it would be okay if Team Lava didn't say anything, but once they did, it would basically be a default that they installed the bomb.
Seeing that the two friends next to him looked confused, he informed them about the bomb incident inside Chimney Mountain.
If he and Yandi hadn't happened to participate in the dog fighting competition this time, maybe Team Lava would have become the "savior" in the eyes of the people.
Next, the volcano will not erupt, and Team Lava, who has vowed to do so, will not only be criticized by the public for spreading rumors, but also be branded as "witchcraft and pseudoscience"...Team Ocean will probably also stare at them like wolves.
"So, Groudon is probably going to get sprayed too."
Xiaogang couldn't help but speak.
After all, idols have to pay for the behavior of fans.
Team Lava has always believed in the God of the Earth... Even in the media, Groudon's forum is managed by Team Lava.
Although Groudon has never recognized it, in the eyes of the public, Team Lava is Groudon's messenger in the human world.
Just like in the Kanto region, if the Three Holy Beasts burned, killed, looted, and trampled on the dealers, the Phoenix King would be the one who got sprayed in the end.
"So, is the Marine Team going to take off next?"
Xiaozhi frowned, these two organizations were like dog eating dog, and he didn't like either one.
Sure enough, the Fangyuan area was too chaotic, so it would be more comfortable to have only one Team Rocket in my hometown.
Although he covers the sky with only one hand, at least his life is relatively stable.
...
...
Due to the strong official guarantee, Team Lava's dream incident did not cause any major disturbances.
This also made Team Lava furious for a while.
Not even paying attention to the time, senior cadre Flame directly detonated the bomb!
They want people all over the world to understand the consequences of underestimating their Lava team!
"..."
But then, nothing happened.
Standing on the outskirts of Zijin City, overlooking the entire Chimney Mountain, Flame, the senior leader of the Lava Team, was about to press the buttons in his hand.
Still nothing happened.
But next to the flames, the leader of the lava team, Chi Yansong, had a gloomy face, like a volcano about to erupt.
"Well, boss, there must be something wrong...!!"
Big Fatty Flame suddenly became panicked.
But Chi Yansong doesn't care about this, because he is the one who talks and shows his face in the media!
This guy came to me with all his heart to propose a plan, but now the bomb cannot be detonated, and Team Lava will lose face because of this!
Could it be an undercover agent sent by the Ocean Team...?
"Hmph, listen to the flames. Now that the words have been spoken, I don't care what method you use, you must detonate Chimney Mountain within 5 days... Otherwise, I will completely stuff you into the magma of Chimney Mountain!!"
Chi Yansong snorted coldly, undoubtedly arousing the real fire.
Immediately, regardless of the expression on the flames, he left angrily, leaving only the flames looking at each other with the bomb detonator...
