Chapter Twenty-Six: Rage
After buying a large number of essential items in the market, the three of them successfully arrived in the next town.
"What kind of place is this?"
Momei crouched down, only to see the slightest crack spread over the ground, and a few withered yellow leaves swaying in the scorching sun.
"It's supposed to be a drought, right?" Xiao Ling muttered,
"I'll ask." Xingchen walked to a nearby house and knocked on the door, "Is anyone there?" ”
After waiting for a long time, just when the three of them thought that there was no one inside, the door slowly opened a small crack,
A woman appeared behind the door, with a scarf wrapped around her head, staring at the three of them with wary eyes.
"What's the matter?" The woman in front of her asked, as if she was ready to close the door at any moment.
"We want to know why there is such a severe drought here." Xingchen looked into the woman's eyes and said slowly,
After staring at the three of them for a long time, and then making sure that there was no malicious intent, the woman spoke,
"The causes of the drought...... I don't know about this, I just know that from a certain day, the water in the river has gradually decreased," the woman's wrinkled skin revealed a trace of sadness, "At first, everyone just thought that it was the influence of the seasons, and besides, everyone could barely survive by living, so no one cared too much, but as time passed, the water in the river did not recover as everyone imagined, but decreased day by day...... Until—completely disappeared ......"
The woman noticed the costumes of the three and looked at the stars,
"You're supposed to be travelers...... If anything, it's the blue house, it's the mayor's house. ”
Pointing in the direction, the woman closed the door.
"What kind of attitude is she~" Xiao Ling pursed her lips and said angrily.
"Ling~ She is only affected by the environment, so she will become like this, we don't need to care too much......" Momei signaled.
"Let's go to the mayor's house first."
The stars walked towards the blue room,
"Anyone?"
"Who are you?" An old man opened the door and looked at the three strangely, "Traveler?" ”
"We're trainers preparing to join the Quartz Alliance, and we're passing through here and want to rest in the town, but ......," Xingchen hesitated,
"Elven trainer?!" As if he had discovered a treasure, the old man looked at the three of them enthusiastically, which made Xiaoling and Mo Mei feel furious, and seeing this, Xingchen couldn't help frowning.
"Don't get me wrong," the old man explained, "Anyway, please come in and sit down, I have something I want to ask you for help with......"
"Let's go, I'm here~" Xingchen comforted the two girls and walked in first.
Xiaoling and Momei glanced at each other and followed.
"Actually, the help I want to ask you for this time has something to do with the river in the village...... "The old man pleaded with the three of them, and pleaded, "Although we went upstream not long ago, all we could see was a large pile of thorn bushes. ”
"It took a lot of effort for us to cut off a small part, and we should have been able to do something, but in the evening, there was a roar similar to that of a beast." The old man shook his head bitterly, "The people in the village felt that it would be dangerous to stay any longer, so they came back immediately. ”
"If you can, could you please look into it, of course we just want to know what the situation is." The old man said sternly, "After all, we don't want any accidents to happen to you who still have a good life." ”
The old man looked at Xingchen pointedly, as if he had misunderstood something, which made Mo Mei and Xiaoling behind Xingchen blush.
"This old man~" Xingchen stood up, "Then let's go and have a look." ”
"Ling, let's go too"
"Good~"
Starting from the riverbank, Xingchen noticed that the ground was drying up more and more strictly, and he already had some calculations in his heart.
"It would have been easy to solve if it was just a thorn bush, but what's the deal with that roar?"
Soon the thorn bush appeared, and endless spikes filled the eyes, and the stars who were about to destroy the thorn bush in front of them were stopped by Momei,
"Occasionally, I have to make a difference." Playfully said, Momei threw out the Poké Ball, "Come out, Flame Horse~"
The white horse of the divine steed appeared, and the hooves burned with bright red flames,
"Flame Vortex~"
With a soft shout, a stream of flames erupted from the flaming horse's mouth, burning a passage through the thorn bushes.
"Sea Thorn Dragon, Water Gun." Beside Xiao Ling, a blue elf quickly spewed out a stream of water, spewing out the remaining sparks.
"Let's go." Xiao Ling said with a smile, and the look of No.1 in the senior class reappeared.
"Understand~" Looking at the two people in front of him, Xingchen smiled and walked forward.
After walking a distance, the three of them noticed the huge footprints not far away, and couldn't help but stop.
"What kind of elf is this?" Momei walked towards the huge footprint under the tree, crouched down,
"Not good~" Xingchen suddenly saw the black shadow that appeared behind Momei, crossed the distance with space, and took Momei in his arms,
A huge palm slapped down, pressing down heavily towards the stars
"Hmm~" The huge power all hit the back of Xingchen, Rao is physique is outstanding, and he can't help but feel a little dizzy at this moment.
"Stars!?" , Mo Mei looked at the young man in front of him with a pale face.
"I'm fine," Xingchen said briefly, opening the spatial passage and returning to Xiao Ling's side before the huge palm attacked again,
"Xiaoling, Momei has been handed over to you to take care of," Xingchen instructed,
A huge palm print appeared on the back, and the flesh and blood in the center were blurred, and at this time, Xiaoling and Mo Mei clearly saw the wound behind Xingchen, and they felt distressed.
But in the blink of an eye, the two girls noticed that Xingchen's wound was beginning to heal on its own.
"How can it hurt?" The voice belonging to Arceus remembered in the bottom of my heart,
"It's nothing, it's just an accident~" Xingchen smiled bitterly,
"Really?" Arceus's voice fell silent, "Be careful yourself in the future, although this injury is not in the way, you should also be vigilant......"
"I see." It was only at this time that Xingchen had time to see the giant beast in front of him, which was a giant Kirbymon, about twice the size of the average Kirbymon.
"What's the situation?" Xingchen caught a glimpse of some of the remaining needles on Kirbymon's body, as well as the instrument inscribed with the 'R' mark.
"Team Rocket?!"
With another punch, Kirbymon seemed to have lost its mind and frantically attacked towards the stars.
Just as Xiaoling and Momei wanted to rush over to help, a purple figure appeared in front of Xingchen's eyes.
"You don't have to limit your strength," Star turned, "Stun it with all your might, prolonging it will only make it more painful......"
"Many~" King Nido nodded, signaling that he understood, and the upper limbs that resisted the heavy punch of the Kirby Beast began to exert force, suppressing the Kirby Beast.
"Kirby~" Kirbymon is obviously not so easy to get along with, and the free other arm throws out a million-ton punch.
"Kirby~" Just when Kirbymon thought that it could knock down King Nido in front of him with one punch, he suddenly found that the scene was reversed, and it turned out that he had been hoisted.
"This is~" Xiao Ling looked at the violent King Nido suspiciously,
"Brute force~" Mo Mei replied to Xiao Ling briefly, while looking at Xingchen's exposed back, she lost her mind for a while. "If it weren't for me~"
Kirbymon never thought that King Nido's power would be so great again, and was about to fight back, when the sight of his pupils was enveloped by a huge fist,
"This is ~megaton boxing~" A miserable cry sent Kirbymon to a faint.
"That's it, solved?" Xiao Ling said incredulously.
"It should be~" Momi said uncertainly.
A Poké Ball was thrown, and Xingchen looked at the Poké Ball shaking on the ground,
"If you want to save it, it's too reckless to use Diaruga and Arceus......" Xingchen thought for a moment and picked up the Poke Ball, "Let's contact the Elf Alliance first"
"Now that the matter is settled, let's go back." Xiao Ling said softly,
"No, this thorn bush hasn't been solved yet." Momei reminded,
"Yin~" The stars released the ice spirit,
"Hail~" Xingchen said slowly, the sky darkened, and a grain of hail fell,
Just as Momi was thinking about what to use to shield the ice particles, a purple film suddenly appeared outside the range of the three of them, bouncing off all the hailstones.
"This is the spatial ability of the stars, right?" Xiao Ling said uncertainly.
"En" Momei replied softly,
"The temperature and snow have accumulated a little, then, use the blizzard~" Xingchen said as he looked at the vast thorn bushes in front of him,
The raging snowflakes directly froze some plants as far as the eye could see in an instant, creating an ice road.
However, the ice elves who had finished using the large skills also began to gasp, and it seemed that they had consumed a lot of body.
"Let's have a good rest for a while~" Xingchen retracted the ice elf, "Six-tails, Pikachu"
"Wow~"
"Pickup?!"
"It's not time to eat yet" Looking at the six tails who kept rubbing at his feet, Xingchen said helplessly.
"Pikachu ~ kawaii." Xiao Ling looked at the two elves beside Xingchen and said, if there is something serious to do, he will definitely rush up and hug him.
"Destroy the thorn bushes that have frozen to death in front of you." Xingchen pointed ahead and said,
"Wow~" A thick flame erupted from the mouth of the six tails, and most of the thorn bushes, which were originally fragile after being frozen by the flames, disappeared under the scorching flames.
"100,000 volts~"
"Pika~Qiu" kept spitting electric sparks from his cheeks, and Pikachu started 100,000 volts with all his might.
Xingchen looked at the continuous flow of water in front of him, although it was far from the turbulent Cheng dù, it was already very impressive.
An hour later, after several efforts, the thorn bushes were finally completely destroyed.
"That should be fine," Xingchen said with a light breath as he looked down at the rushing river.
"Seems to be late?" Xiao Ling looked at the increasingly dark sky and said.
"Let's go back and see how the village is doing," Mometti said.
"Good~"
Dozens of minutes later, the three of them returned to the village, which was different from the silence of the morning, when the village had regained its former vitality.
"There's water!"
"The river is back!"
"The drought is over!"
"Hey~ That's, benefactor" The old man in the crowd noticed the three people who returned, "Everyone go and thank you!" ”
"Thank you very much for your help, please stay today, we will treat you well." The old man excitedly took Xingchen's hand, embarrassing the latter.
"It's hard to be gracious." Noticing the enthusiastic eyes of the large group of villagers, Xingchen twitched the corners of his mouth and said,
"It seems that I can't leave tonight......" Xiaoling said with a helpless six-tail,
Unlike Xiaoling, Momei was looking at Xingchen's bare back at this time, not knowing what she was thinking.
