The heat of the flames vaporized the clear lake water, and Charizard's figure was drowned in a hazy vapor and a blinding golden-red glow.

After a few seconds, the light dissipated. The red dragon fluttered its wings and soared into the air with a wind full of moisture, holding a little guy of the same skin color as himself in its arms.

Its body is smaller than Charizard's palm, with an orange-red flame burning on the tip of its tiny tail, and its skin is soft as a newborn. A pair of sky-blue eyes are clear and bright, reflecting the colors of the blue sky and white clouds.

"Ahh Looking up, the pure azure eyes met a pair of eyes of the same color and much sharper.

I didn't expect the egg to hatch at such a time. Xiao Ye shook her head helplessly, but since the little fire dragon was safe and sound, there was nothing to worry about.

Nodding to Xiaotian, the two of them stepped forward at the same time. It's easy to lose your balance and fall when running on the shaking stone steps, but both Saya and Tenten run steadily. And the blazing flames became an impregnable wall to protect the two of them—no matter which direction the arrows flew from, they instantly turned to dust under the flames of Charizard.

With Charizard's protection, this treacherous road has become a smooth avenue.

The little fire dragon sat in Charizard's wide palm, and raised its head a little apprehensively. The crimson dots of the flame stained the azure eyes, and they appeared to shine.

When Xiao Ye and Xiao Tian stepped on the platform together, the tremors had gradually subsided.

Charizard circled a few times, slowly landed, and handed the soft dragon in his arms to Xiao Ye.

The little orange fire dragon blinked ignorantly. When he saw Xiao Ye, his eyes immediately lit up.

"Ahhh

That's right, that's the breath. The little guy narrowed his eyes in satisfaction. It was this man who was by his side when he was not born, gently wiping the dust off the eggshell, and it was this man who sat on the windswept roof under the blue sky and played the flute. Although it was the first time they had met officially, the little fire dragon immediately recognized the human who gave him the most warmth.

Xiao Ye hugged the warm little fire dragon. Although it is not the first time to touch Pokémon, it is the first time to touch your own Pokémon. Just holding it gently, Xiao Ye could feel the closeness and dependence of this little fire dragon on him.

"Hello, little fire dragon. Xiao Ye smiled and raised the little fire dragon, and his voice was soft, "Please give me a lot of advice from now on." ”

"Ahh

Yan, who had been ignored for a long time, looked at the warm and harmonious Xiao Ye and the little fire dragon, and then looked at his own facial paralysis master, and couldn't help but sigh deeply.

I remember that when I was just born, I was almost scared by the little master with a black face, and my heart stopped. What a gap between people...... Yan shook his head and sighed, ushered in a red light.

And then...... It was withdrawn into the Pokéball.

After communicating with the little fire dragon, Xiao Ye also took the little fire dragon back into the ball. After all, this is a dangerous ruin, and a newborn baby Pokémon can easily get hurt.

After doing all this, Xiao Ye got up and saw Xiao Tian observing the old stone table in the center of the platform. In the shaking just now, it was this heavy stone table that rose from under the platform.

Xiao Ye approached and carefully observed the antique-grade stone table in front of him. Strange symbols were vaguely carved on the table, presumably the same script as the writing on the surrounding stone tablets. Unfortunately, the traces have become too blurred over time for them to be discerned.

In the center of the stone table, a stone tool resembling a compass is placed. The compass is no bigger than a palm, and the surface is carved with intricate patterns.

"What is this?" Xiao Ye looked sideways at Xiao Tian. Everything set up by the ruin builder seems to be to screen the really powerful people to get here, so this compass should be the most critical item closely related to the reason for the ruin's construction.

"It's not clear. Xiao Tian frowned slightly, and reached out to pick up the compass.

The moment Xiao Tian's fingertips touched the compass, Xiao Ye inexplicably felt a strong sense of crisis. Unlike the feeling of being targeted by an arrow, it is a more dense and deadly sensation that makes the scalp tingle.

It's like when you stepped on the stone steps just now and faced countless flying steel needles.

Could it be said?

didn't have time to think too much, and at the same moment when the sense of crisis rose, Xiao Ye did not hesitate to reverse his pace and crashed into the boy next to him as fast as he could.

Caught off guard, the silver-haired boy stumbled to the side, and Xiao Ye took Xiao Tian's original position. A dense and sharp silver light came silently but extremely quickly, and Xiao Ye, who had just crashed into Xiao Tian, had no time to dodge.

In the pupils, the sharp and piercing cold light dilated rapidly.

At this moment, Xiao Ye felt that time seemed to slow down. It's not a psychological phenomenon caused by fear or consternation, but really, time slows down.

Faintly, there seemed to be a solemn and hazy voice ringing in my ears. Although the jerky and strange pronunciation doesn't sound like a modern language, Sayo understands what the voice conveys.

[Your enlightenment, I have indeed received it. 】

The blue light bloomed in front of the night. It was a beautiful, bright, and stable light, like a knight who guarded the king, blocking all damage to the figure behind it.

With the crisp sound of the steel needles falling to the ground, Guanghua also converged, leaving Xiao Ye slightly stunned to look at the dozens of sharp steel needles scattered at his feet.

Despite having just escaped from the death line, Xiao Ye has completely ignored the deadly steel needle at her feet. That voice just now, could it be ...... Is it?

Although it was the first time she heard the voice, Xiao Ye unconsciously thought of the last picture she had seen before she died in her previous life.

The dream in that light.

When the blue light was extinguished, the flow of time returned to normal. When the silver-haired boy stabilized his footing, he turned back in surprise, only to see steel needles all over the place and Xiao Ye who seemed to be a little surprised.

This is...... Seeing the cold gleaming needles of the steel needles on the ground, Xiao Tian's pupils shrank. In other words, there is such a deadly trap attached to that stone compass?

Underneath the compass is an extremely delicate mechanism that activates when you touch the compass to change its weight, and dozens of steel needles hidden in the cracks of the stone table eject out in an instant. Unlike arrows, the steel needles are small, have little wind noise when flying, and are faster, making it impossible to dodge at such close distances.

If Xiaotian hadn't been knocked away by Xiaoye, the consequences could have been imagined.

In mid-air, Charizard, who was in a cold sweat, also let out a sigh of relief. At that moment, although Charizard sensed the danger, it was too late to rescue it, which was far away from Xiaotian. Fortunately, there was a little night, and nothing happened.
