Page 2 Forest of Worms
Ahem, the following may be slightly high-energy, slightly darker, and slightly supernatural, so please watch it at your discretion......
Then, thank you Brother Situ for the two evaluation votes~~ and the evaluation votes of Brother Xiaodao and Brother Erkong~~ I just reacted now......
━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━
Since Kuknus has been babbling about words of unknown meaning such as "It's time" and "It's time", Merlin has been nervous since this guy evolved, for fear that something terrible would suddenly pop out and beat him...... As a result, until Merlin decided to break through the dense foggy forest, there were still no accidents.
Merlin, who had been worried for days, had to unilaterally assume that Kuknus merely thought it was time to evolve, and ignored his chatter.
With one more coconut egg tree beside him, there will always be three tones of crazy self-talk in his ears, three fruits, three faces, and three consciousnesses are always muttering their own thoughts, and they are doing it in a language that no one can understand. Merlin tried to communicate with Kuknas, but now it was harder to communicate and understand. But fortunately, it is still relatively obedient.
Wearing a respirator and carrying a full suitcase, Merlin, accompanied by his friends, began to try to break through this strange forest.
He was followed by Reiko, who was responsible for maintaining the surrounding dry climate, and Kuknas, who was in charge of the sun, in front of him were Legion and Monardo opening the way at the same time, and later on were Dalles and Sandel who were in charge of guarding and rearing the palace. One person, six Pokémon once again went deep into the lifeless Forest of Mist.
The fog around Youlingzi was also very thin, not only did the visibility suddenly expand to ten meters away, but even the body would not be so wet and sticky uncomfortable, although the air was still not small.
Chlorophyll-bearing Pokémon with chlorophyll are very fond of sunlight, and Pokémon with chlorophyll in good weather can gain a boost and advantage in terms of degree, as well as a small increase in their energy recovery. Therefore, Kuknas has now become Lingzi's follower, but because of his natural fear of the fire system, he doesn't dare to get too close to Lingzi, and always maintains a relatively safe and moderate distance.
At first, the path was smooth, as the paths had been figured out by the previous companions, either on their own or with Merlin, but after a few days of walking, the team's progress began to slow down significantly, and the "path" ahead had to be rediscovered.
Monardo and Legion walked side by side not far from each other, Monardo crouched low on the ground, turning a pair of big ears deftly to collect sound signals, and Legion carefully distinguishing every scent with his nose close to the ground.
After a moment's search, Legion raised his head and yelled behind him. Receiving the signal from Legion that it was safe, Merlin and his party, who were lagging behind, also began to follow.
In line with the principle of caution, in this completely unfamiliar environment that makes Merlin deeply uneasy, Merlin must be more careful and cautious in every action. Losing the way to escape means that you must face the danger head-on, so Merlin can only choose to escape the danger as much as possible and avoid the risk in advance, rather than relying on the convenience of teleportation to satisfy his curiosity and adventurous spirit as in the past.
It doesn't matter if he has some accidents, he just doesn't want to bother his friends.
Because the fog has faded, the original face of this forest is much clearer, and everywhere you can see are towering giant trees that can only be carried by a few people, their spreading roots dominate the ground, and the leafless branches that stretch out are strangely twisted, and only some tenacious weeds and ferns can survive under the trees. Because the fog blocks the sunlight and prevents them from photosynthesizing, the plants have a distinctly gray color that contrasts with the greenery overhead.
The ground is covered with sticky moss, and the trunks and roots of the trees are covered with all kinds of mushrooms and fungi, some of which are rare and delicious, and some of which are absolutely incurable poisons. Merlin religiously picked some edible delicious mushrooms as reserves, and also picked some poisons for later use. Perhaps because of the effectiveness of the poison feeding, both Monardo and Dracula are now starting to like the poisons, especially since Dracula has also begun to drink various poison mixtures to enhance her toxicity. However, Merlin still didn't dare to let the two of them eat these poisons casually, and they had to test the toxicity and understand the toxicity before trying to let them eat it.
Just as Merlin was bending down to pick large chunks of matsutake from a small patch of black fertile soil, Monardo, who was scouting his way ahead, suddenly let out a warning call, followed by Legion's warning roar.
Abandoning the matsutake mushroom that was about to arrive, Merlin stood up and squinted his eyes to look ahead.
I saw a large group of large mushrooms with flowers floating in the thin mist in the distance, and the sound of clattering and rubbing scissors came out.
Merlin shuddered for no reason, "Pyrast? He broke the other party's identity, and at the same time, goosebumps began to erupt involuntarily on his body.
He wasn't afraid of insects, and even when he went back and forth twice in the Tokiwa forest, where insects were running all over the ground, he didn't have any fear of insects, but he just had a headache with the swarms of giant needle bees. However, since he recognized the identity of his ability, Merlin sadly began to fear insects, in fact, more accurately, began to feel disgusted and disgusted with insects. Unless there are special circumstances, he has begun to avoid looking directly at swarms of caterpillars and other insects. Originally, I didn't think there was anything, but now I feel that these creatures with simple brains and simple bodies have an indescribable feeling of nausea.
Vizier said that this is a natural attribute aversion, and the ability is restrained by the three attributes of insects, ghosts, and evil, so Merlin, who is an ability, will inevitably resist and accept the Pokémon of these three attributes. This also gave Merlin an excuse to shirk his weakness of fear of ghosts.
When you are in the Tokiwa Forest, you will be very excited to see Pyrast Merin, because the mushrooms grown by Pyrast are natural and excellent medicinal herbs, and the spores they release are rare and powerful. So seeing them means a lot of gain. But this time, the sudden sight of a large group of Pyrast clicking his scissors in the distance only made Merlin's throat itch.
This kind of Pokémon is actually very inconsistent.
Somewhat similar to the Frog series, the Pyra series is also a Pokémon with plants on their backs. However, compared with the relationship between the plants of the Miao Frog series that are part of the body, the relationship between the Pyra series and the mushrooms behind it is a little unpleasant.
They were normal at the time of the Pyras, and the mushrooms behind them were just absorbing or rather plundering the body's nutrients for growth. They like to suck the sap and essence from the roots of the tree to help the mushrooms on their backs grow faster, while they grow more slowly. This mushroom is called "Cordyceps sinensis" by oriental guys, and although it is a completely incomprehensible name, it has extremely high and strong medicinal properties, and is said to prolong life.
And when the mushroom behind it becomes big enough, Pyras will evolve into Pyrast. At that time, something more disagreeable will appear. After evolving into Pyrast, the will of the insect part becomes weak and insignificant, and the will of the mushroom behind it, which is larger than the main body, begins to drive the insect's body to move, and the mushroom behind it begins to think in place of the insect part.
Pyrast prefers a dark, damp environment to Pyras, which is not the will of insects but of mushrooms. Pyrast will begin to release poisonous spores, which are not the will of the insects but the orders of the mushrooms. Hordes of Pyrasts will be driven by mushrooms to gather together to suck nutrients from the roots of large trees, and will not divert their targets until they turn the trees into dry firewood, and they will continue to do this to make the mushrooms behind them bigger......
As the mushroom grows larger, the insect body that carries the mushroom will gradually dry up and eventually be squeezed out of every trace of nutrients and value and become a dry corpse, and then the mushroom will grow on the ground, but they are used to having slaves and rarely survive after landing. This mushroom, which has escaped from Pyrast's body and successfully continues to grow, is called King Mushroom by humans, and is extremely toxic and parasitic, and will parasitize the spores that are sprayed out on any living organism, and these spores will absorb the host's nutrients from the inside and manipulate the host's behavior...... until it is fully grown and sucks the host into a dried corpse. Repeat Pyra's fate.
In ancient times, there was no antidote to this spor, but in modern times, humans are no longer parasitized and controlled by this spores.
And the Pyra family is permanently burdened with this fate, driven by the mushroom behind it.
It's no wonder that in modern times, some scholars call Pyrast "dead Pokémon" and "mushroom zombies", just because they are already servants of mushrooms, and looking at their godless pupils, they can more or less appreciate the horror under that blank space.
However, the above are all symptoms that will only be shown by Pyras in the wild, and this will not happen to Pyrast in captivity, perhaps because of the relatively rich nutritional intake or because of human care, Pyras and Pyrast raised by humans can achieve the peaceful coexistence of mushrooms and insects.
A large group of Pyrast, carrying colorful giant mushrooms, clicked in the thin mist in the distance, clattering their scissors to intimidate Merlin and his party, while Monador, who was facing them in front of them, took a fighting stance, gesturing back and forth with a sharp unihorn and daring to approach Pyrast, while roaring lowly, and Legion also grinned at them and roared lowly.
Pyrast, who has the dual attributes of insects and grass and has dry skin, may have taken into account the fiery energy of the Lingzi and the grinning Legion who was grinning at them, but he did not dare to approach Merlin and his party.
"It doesn't matter if you're carrying a mushroom bug or being controlled by a mushroom!" Merlin forced his instinctive discomfort and shouted, "If you dare to make trouble, prepare me to be injured!" He stretched out his hand and pointed, "Legion, sparks, roar!" Then he gave orders to Legion.
Legion's mouth, which had been on standby for a long time, erupted a large small spark, and these warning sparks immediately caused great fear in Pyrast, and a few who were too close began to scramble back, and the large crowd in the distance also dodged uneasily. Seeing that his attack had a significant effect, Legion was also very proud, and after spewing sparks for a while, he scareled the group of Pyrasts before squeezing out a low trace of anger from his throat and began to brew a roaring trick.
"Roar~! ~! With a roar, Legion emitted a loud noise and powerful sound waves from his small body, and several Pyrasts, who were just shrouded in sound waves, scrambled back and forth as if they had been electrified, an act that immediately drew their kind to follow suit, and in a short time the large, brightly colored mushrooms disappeared into the thin mist in the distance.
"Hmph~~" Seeing that his attack was so effective, Legion raised his head slightly and snorted from his nose. As a result, he was glared at by Monador next to him, and immediately regained his modest appearance.
"I kept arguing that I couldn't see a living thing, but it was this 'living thing' that I saw for the first time." Merlin also sighed in the back, "But the fog in front seems to have faded a lot, it seems that we are on the right path, let's move on." ”
Following Merlin's command, the team moved on again.
The fog in front of him is getting lighter and lighter, and the area of influence of the drought characteristics of the Lingzi has gradually begun to increase, and the area covered by the characteristics has completely dispelled the fog, and Merlin, who is beside the Lingzi, has long been unable to feel the original damp moisture, and even began to feel a little hot.
Not only did the fog become thinner, but the forest ahead was far less dense and tall than the trees of the forest that came by, and through the sparse foliage, Merlin could even see the sun for the first time in a long time. The vegetation here is not as gray and low as before, and it is not a single mushroom, fungus and moss full of swaying mushrooms, but green shrubs, ferns and young grasses - this place is truly full of life.
And with fresh vegetation, there are naturally traces of plant-feeding insects, and wriggling caterpillars can be seen everywhere in the grass and treetops, these fat creatures are constantly eating, constantly fattening themselves to accumulate the energy needed for evolution. Hanging beneath the thick branches are all kinds of stout pupae, which hide in the shadows cast by the trees and wait for the moment to break out of their cocoons. Merlin even saw a few hazelnut balls swaying in the wind under a pine tree, also hanging under the branches.
A few poisonous moths and butterflies are dancing in the thin mist. One of the butterflies that accidentally flew between the two trees crashed into the cobwebs laid by the ball of thread and Alidos, struggling to break free from the webs, but awakening the hunter who was waiting for the prey, and the hunter who moved quickly along the silk thread tied the prey with a thin sticky silk thread, and then paralyzed its last resistance with venom. However, it doesn't seem to be hungry now, so instead of eating it directly, it is taken back to its nest, and it is unknown whether it was used as a reserve food or to feed its offspring.
"This ......" Looking at the insects in his eyes, Merlin felt his scalp numb and his body tremble for the first time, and even his voice trembled a little.
Suddenly, a large armor covered in damp soil sprang out of the bushes, and it roamed the land like a lord proudly, swaggering out of the bushes.
As soon as he saw his former enemy, Monardo immediately prepared for battle silently.
But before the lord of the big armor could see Monador, two swift green figures jumped out of the grass in the distance, and these high-moving emerald green figures left behind afterimages, and they didn't flap their wings and just ran with their legs and rushed straight towards the big armor that had already appeared wrong.
Four dazzling sharp white lights swept by, and the large armor that had been prepared was still cut into five equal pieces, and the shattered body with sticky blood was scattered all over the ground......
Merlin's pupils tightened.
Because those two green figures actually turned the target to their own side after completing the cutting of the armor.
━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━
The answer to the previous question: The energy + grass dual attributes of the egg and coconut egg trees have a total of seven weaknesses, which are twice the restraint of flight, poison, ghost, fire, ice, evil, and four times the restraint of insects...... It's a big flaw~~
Question in this issue: Which Pokémon is the green figure that appears in the article? ? It shouldn't be difficult~~
