Chapter 146: Trial of the Dragon (3-in-1)
"Oh, I didn't expect Xia Yan to be really strong."
Sheba grabbed his head and put away the strange force that had fallen to the ground...
After being controlled by Natsuhiko's Pokkis with an "air slash" for the first time, it became very troublesome to break free after that.
It is not only about the willpower of the elves, but also about their luck.
Obviously, Pokkiss is on its side for the most part.
Moreover, as an elf of the flying department, he already has attribute restraint in the fighting department, and after being hit by the strange power of the "Divine Bird Slam", he can't stick to the end of the "cowering" state at all.
"Mr. Hiba is also very strong." Xia Yan said.
This is not a compliment.
It's really strong.
This strange force is probably not his strongest strange force.
Being able to become a reserve of the Four Heavenly Kings at least means that Xiba already has four or more Heavenly King-level elves.
As one of his main elves, the strange power must also be at the level of a heavenly king.
was able to win him, but he didn't think about winning any awards or rankings at all.
"It's yours."
As he spoke, Xiba stuffed a large number of pendants into Natsuhiko's arms.
Then I don't know where to take out an "angry steamed bun" again and stuff it into my mouth.
"I'm going to take the monster to the Elf Center, and I won't be participating in the celebration after that."
He waved his hand.
Walking very dashingly in the direction of the Elf Center.
"What about you?" Biktini blinked twice, a spirit, "Mimi!" ”
That's when it suddenly reacted.
Didn't give Porkis a boost yet, and then won?
Mostly.
It didn't see any signs of weakening in the halo of victory on Natsuhiko's body, nor did it see any change in the sun-like halo of victory on Xiba's body.
A stunned battle is over.
Natsuhiko rubbed its head quietly.
To be recognized by Bictini is a victory.
He didn't really want Bictini to help him out, so it wouldn't be interesting to win.
Holding the pendant that Hibasak had given him.
With so many words, you should be able to determine the top three, right?
"Natsuhiko ......" Wataru walked up and just called out his name when he was interrupted.
"Stop!"
Wataru was stunned.
"Don't you want to go and see what's going on inside the 'Sword of Earth' castle?" Xia Yan asked.
Wataru looked up at the quaint castle that stood not far away, exuding a different charm in the afterglow of falling.
Thinking is thinking.
"I can fight any time, I want to go up and have a look." Xia Yan's sudden expression was serious.
Bicchitini, who was invisible on his shoulder, hugged his cheek.
"If you don't like the prize, you can take it and give it to me."
After saying that, he walked towards the platform in the center of the square.
As long as the registration is completed, it is considered to be final.
"I'm ......," Wataru opened his mouth.
I always felt like something was wrong.
Xia Yan shook his head secretly.
If Wataru can't enter the "Sword of the Earth", who knows if Wataru will be able to gain Raisiram's approval?
It's all for his good...... Xia Yan muttered to himself in his heart.
Bell Bell Bell –
However, as Natsuhiko walked towards the stage, a melodious bell rang in the square, announcing the official end of the "Winter Festival".
More and more people are coming in this direction, and the trainers are registering their results one by one.
As long as there is a pendant in the end of the hand, even if there are only one, two or two, you can still get the gifts given by the town.
From some exquisite specialties to elven evolution stones, and so on.
And as the mayor of the town Mo Mengduo walked to the stage, the top three rankings have been determined.
First, a generic rhetoric.
“...... Next, I would like to announce the top three of this 'Winter Festival', namely 'Master of Tactics' Mr. Xia Yan! 'Dragon's Messenger' Mr. Ryuto! and our 'people of the earth' Drado! ”
This championship is a bit random.
Boom ——!!
As his words fell, fireworks rose outside the town to end the "Winter Celebration".
"Three gentlemen, please come to the castle tomorrow, and I will take you to receive the prize and accept the noblest ceremony of our 'people of the earth'."
on the square.
A bonfire was lit and a dance with the characteristics of the famous people was danced.
Not only the "people of the earth", but also many trainers and elves also participated.
On a chair next to the square.
Natsuhiko couldn't help but smile as he watched Pokkeis and Eevee jumping around in the crowd with a cheerful look.
Biktini is also among them, but it is in a stealth state, and only Pokkis and Ibrahim can play with it.
But it was still smiling.
"Natsuhiko." Following Natsuhiko's example, Wataru leaning on the railing also had a smile on his face.
"Huh?"
"It's really amazing to be able to become a trainer, grow with the elves, and witness each other's progress again and again......
Xia Yan glanced at him with some surprise.
I thought that Wataru was going to ask about the battle again, but I didn't expect him to suddenly say such an emotional sentence.
But in Xia Yan's mind, he couldn't help but flash the whole process of meeting himself, getting along, getting to know each other, and believing in the elves.
"yes."
Grinning.
No matter how hard the training is, how difficult the battle is, how sad it is to grow.
As long as I can bear the bitterness and joy with the elves, I always feel that everything is not as difficult as I imagined.
"You say ......"
"What?"
"When will I be able to fight you again?"
Natsuhiko: "..."
He pursed his lips.
"Come on."
It won't be long before the Alola region will be developed, and Dr. Oki has already received the news.
At that time, I am afraid that it will be even more difficult than the "Lily of the Valley Youth Competition......
...
...
"Did you hear that? Last night, the entire town of Kagome was frozen in ice, and even the houses were frozen. ”
"I know that not only Kagome Town, but even Ssangyong City has been affected, and the whole city is about to be paralyzed."
"The most serious thing is the 'village bridge' between roads 11 and 12, not to mention the ice on the entire river, and even the bridge has become an ice sculpture."
"It's still Eindooak, it's like spring all year round, and the cold outside has nothing to do with us."
"It's just pity for the people of Kagome Town and those wild elves."
“....”
Early the next morning.
Natsuhiko, who was traveling to the "Sword of the Earth" with Wataru, heard the words of the residents.
The two looked at each other.
"Xia Yan, do you say it's .....?"
"It should be."
Xia Yan's expression was a little solemn.
If nothing else, it should be that the plasma team has already fought with Kyurem, and they may have already finished fighting.
The results are not yet known.
The Coalition shouldn't be able to make all of these things public.
It's hard to say what the specific situation will be.
Anyway, Xia Yan has already told the police officer Lila what he guessed, what he knew, and what he should say, and also reminded Xia Ka.
No matter how much he had, he couldn't do anything with a small gym owner.
Because of the content of the residents' chat, the mood of the two, which was originally good, became a little heavy.
When they arrived at the castle of the Sword of Earth, Mayor Momondo and Dredor were already waiting for them at the door.
"Come with me, two."
The fat mayor smiled kindly and led the three of them into the castle.
The castle is not without people, and there are still many staff members who maintain the hygiene of the castle.
It's just that they can only be active at the bottom of the castle, the top of the real "Sword of the Earth", and only a few people can go up.
Drado didn't say much along the way.
But looking at the expression, I was still a little excited.
For the "people of the earth", it is an honor to be able to climb to the top of the "sword of the earth", a place that once only the royal family could go to.
However, Mo Mengdo still led them to the middle level of the "Earth Sword" first.
A quaint bronze table with a variety of objects.
"Three, this is your prize this time, each person can only choose one, and the champion Mr. Xia Yan will choose first." Mo Mengduo said with a smile.
Natsuhiko walked over to the table.
He found that there were still a lot of things on it that he didn't recognize.
Among them, the most eye-catching thing was undoubtedly the two palm-sized scales, one black and one white, placed in the center.
No doubt.
This is the dragon scales that Rasilam and Zekrom once faded.
Although it is not a reverse scale, it is the same as the dragon scale left by Liekong to Xia Yan, and it is definitely not something that can be measured by ordinary "dragon scales".
The only pity is that I don't know how long these scales have fallen off, so the energy on them is more or less dim.
But even so, their value is unquestionable.
Mo Mengduo was also very enthusiastic about introducing these things to Xia Yan.
Some have a practical purpose, while others simply have a name, as well as a legacy left behind.
"This is the treasure left by the last king of our 'Philosopher's Stone', and it is said that the old king deliberately left it before mobilizing the 'Sword of the Earth', but no one knows what the specific purpose is." Mo Mengduo introduced with a smile.
Xia Yan's gaze fell on this dark purple crystal.
There seems to be a special force inside the surface of the streamer's crystal.
And this crystal shell seems to have been specially treated, and there is no sign of half of the energy inside.
If it's someone else.
Maybe I can only think that it is a good stone with a high collection value, such as Daigo.
But for Natsuhiko.
He felt the energy within.
It's a superpower!
Very pure superpowers.
But what the specific role is, I'm afraid you can only know if you think about it.
Two dragon scales, and this "Sage Stone".
Natsuhiko rubbed his chin.
At last.
He grabbed the dark purple hedron on the table anyway.
It doesn't take much thought and hesitation.
Not to mention that the scale energy of the double dragon had passed, and he still had a piece of dragon scale sitting in the air in his hand, which was a bit of a duplicate value to him.
On the contrary, it was something that the old king deliberately left behind, which made Xia Yan feel that its role was not ordinary.
The old king's superpowers and his understanding and use of superpowers made Xia Yan stunned, and when it came to using them, I am afraid that Nazi could not compare with him.
And it was deliberately left before he died, and he must have wanted to leave something or tell future generations.
At least.
Natsuhiko remembered that Dredor, who was soon approved by Rasilam or Zekrom, used the power of Biktini again to control the "Sword of the Earth".
Maybe it has something to do with this "philosopher's stone".
After Xia Yan finished choosing, he was crossed.
He was very crisp and took the scales of Laceram directly.
And Drydo took the "Earth Stone", which has a special meaning for the "People of the Earth", and what the specific effect is, I don't know for the time being.
Afterwards.
The three of them, led by Mo Mengduo again, walked to the top of the "Sword of the Earth".
"I can't go up after that, it's up to you."
After opening the staircase to the upper floor, Momondo stood where he was.
The three did not hesitate.
Climb the ladder.
Walk up a spiral staircase through the hollow area in the center of the castle to the top of the "Sword of Earth".
Over here.
It is the place where the old king once overlooked the whole country, and it also represents the highest glory of the "people of the earth".
Drydo's body trembled slightly with excitement.
Wataru stepped out onto the balcony and looked into the distance for a panoramic view of the whole of Eindooc.
Xia Yan's attention was attracted by the altar-like building in the middle of the top floor.
Four stone pillars with a pattern similar to the seal of Biktini but much smaller are erected around the altar.
Eyes flashed.
Superpower coverage.
Xia Yan felt the fluctuation of energy.
"This is it......"
"..... Mimi"
Bicchitini's mood is somewhat depressed, and it recalls the images and scenes of the old king's death.
Xia Yan said in a low voice of relief: "Let the past pass, the people of the past put him in the bottom of their hearts, but this captivity that lasted for thousands of years should be over." ”
"What a mi!"
Bicchitini nodded emphatically.
Then I saw that Xia Yan strode towards the steps of the altar.
"Wait! That's ......"
He wants to destroy the altar?
Drado, who came back to his senses, saw Natsuhiko walking up the steps, and hurriedly spoke out to try to stop him.
Natsuhiko didn't squint, staring at the center of the altar.
In response to Deredo's obstruction, I heard him say without any emotion: "Is it the so-called glory of your 'people of the earth' to imprison a little guy who has helped your entire clan to survive in this square inch of land all the time?" ”
Drado's tone choked.
He didn't know why Natsuhiko knew about Biktini being imprisoned here.
After all, even the current "people of the earth" only a small number of people know about this matter.
It was also while looking through the collection of the town's mayor Momondo that he came across a story about Bicchitini.
Most of the "people of the earth" only knew that the old king had used the power of Bictines, and they thanked Bictines for his help, but they did not know what Bictines had paid for it.
And the few who know, they dare not disturb the barrier left by the old king, for fear that the whole of Eindooak will become as desolate as the "land of the earth" once again.
Looking at Natsuhiko, who was getting closer and closer to the altar, Drado's eyes kept changing.
He had read ancient books.
When I was traveling, I also saw the tribes of the "people of the earth" who were still not far away from their homeland and lived in the barren "land of the earth", so I had a very bold idea.
He wanted to replicate what the old king had done, move the "Sword of the Earth" again, and bring the dragon vein back to the "Land of the Earth".
It also gives the "people of the earth" a new homeland.
Therefore.
He had to rely on the arrangements left by the old king, with the help of the power of Bicchitines.
So he couldn't allow Natsuhiko to destroy the altar.
"I'm sorry, but for the sake of my people......" Dredor whispered in a voice that only he could hear.
Immediately, his eyes became determined.
Reshaping the homeland is my truth!
Two Poké Balls appear in his hand and are thrown together.
Appearing are the elven artificial cell eggs of the Drydo and the symbolic bird.
"Stop him!" Drydo said in a deep voice.
The artificial cell egg and the symbolic bird agitated their superpowers and pounced towards Natsuhiko.
"What a mi!"
Bicchitini exclaimed.
Natsuhiko, who felt the fluctuations in superpowers and heard Biktini's voice, frowned.
Two red lights flashed around his waist.
"Hiss!"
"Whoa!"
Needle bee and Hudi appear.
The sharp needle is like a spear that breaks the sky, and it sweeps horizontally to disperse all the two superpowers.
Hudi spoons crossed, and the same superpowers surged towards the two elves.
"Natsuhiko!"
Noticing the movement here, he turned around in some astonishment.
I saw Xia Yan staring coldly at Dredore.
"Even if you know that doing this is hurting a little guy who is willing to be lonely for you for a thousand years and selflessly dedicated, but you still choose to do this?"
Drydo's face was filled with guilt and tangle, but it was quickly replaced by determination.
"I'm sorry for Biktini like this, but wait for me, when I've completed the self-redemption of our 'people of the earth', I'm willing to give everything I have back to Bictines!"
Hearing this, Xia Yan couldn't help but laugh.
Didn't say anything more.
It's everyone's nature to think about things from their own perspective.
In Natsuhiko's opinion, Deredo may be foolish.
But in his own eyes, and to some of the "people of the earth", he may be a hero.
Since they are all standing from their own perspectives and positions, there is no right or wrong.
In the end, it depends on their respective strengths.
"What a mi!"
Biktini appeared, his expression a little flustered and overwhelmed.
One side is Xia Yan, who it recognizes, and in order to help it get out of trouble.
On the other side is the representative of the "people of the earth", a people who were willing to give everything it saved a thousand years ago, even if this thousand years of waiting made Biktini almost forget the good memories that this people gave it back then, but after all, it was the one it once guarded.
"Biktini!?"
Drado was surprised when he saw Bicchitini who appeared beside Natsuhiko.
Smack-
Xia Yan slapped his palm on the little guy's head and rubbed it vigorously.
"Leave it to me."
"What about you?"
Biktini looked at Xia Yan's eyes, and after a short period of distraction, he still nodded and chose to believe Xia Yan.
Natsuhiko looked at Dredor again.
If it is said.
Drado's choices, and what he will do in the future, can really save the "Land of the Earth".
Then right and wrong cannot be discussed.
But the prophetic Xia Yan knew.
Drydo just thinks that he is doing the right thing, but in fact, as soon as the "Sword of the Earth" moves, the dragon vein will run wild.
Not only will the "Land of the Earth" not be restored, but the entire Eindook will be completely destroyed, and all the surrounding mountains and forests will be swallowed up by the runaway dragon veins.
"Today."
Natsuhiko pressed Biktini's head and said something like the truth, "Biktini will break free!" ”
After a short period of stunned, Drydo also came back to his senses, listened to Xia Yan's words, and put on a posture.
Rumble!!
Suddenly.
A milky white pillar of light rose from the depths of the castle at the bottom.
The pure beam of light is not mixed with any impurities, and even ignores all the barriers of rocks and walls, and soars into the sky.
Shrouded Natsuhiko and Drado.
Du, who was standing next to him, saw this scene and couldn't help but shout: "Xia Yan!! ”
However, as soon as he got closer, he felt the barrier, and a blazing heat.
This scene.
Not only Wataru saw it, but all the residents of the entire Eindooak town also saw it.
Xiba, who was waiting for the boss to make steamed buns in his old position, silently swallowed the steamed buns in his mouth.
smashed his mouth, "Du and Xia Yan, what are the two guys?" ”
"What's that?"
"It's bright, but it's also warm."
"I've been to the 'Winter Festival' in Eindooak several times, but I've never seen a show like this?"
Many foreign tourists are talking about it.
Only a small number of older "people of the earth", or those who are more familiar with the history of the "people of the earth", watched this scene in amazement.
"Mom's ......"
Carita, who was helping Ginger Ta tidy up her stall, saw the pillar of light and muttered.
The three evil dragons beside her also stared blankly at this pillar of light, with a little yearning and respect in their eyes.
Gingerta's expression wasn't much better than Calita's, but she came back to her senses much faster than Calita.
The tone was rather heavy, and he said a noun in a complex manner.
"Dragon's ...... Trials. ”
"Trial of the Dragon?" Calita said she had never heard of anything like this.
Jiang Ta sighed silently, "It can also be called a 'true trial'. ”
"Mom, you mean ......" Calita's eyes widened.
Ginger Tower nodded.
"Legend has it that when the old king died of exhaustion, the two princes woke up to the fact that Ssangyong had also become a 'Light Stone' and a 'Dark Stone' because of the exhaustion of their strength, and it is said that they each chose a place to bury them deeply, and no one knew where Ssangyong was hidden.
Some say that Ssangyong is under the castle, while others say ...... Ssangyong does not want to see the 'people of the earth' again, so he will no longer appear with Eindook.
Didn't expect ......"
"The 'Stone of Light' is underneath the castle?" Calita added Gingerta's words.
Jiang Ta looked at the pillar of light again, "This phenomenon has only happened once in the history of the kingdom.
But at that time, it was not only the white pillar of light that rose, but also the black pillar of light......"
"Brother..... He's on top of it too. Carita suddenly thought of her brother Drydo.
"And Mr. Natsuhiko and Mr. Wataru."
"Mom, they won't ...... Something, right? Calita asked.
Jiang Ta shook his head, "I, I don't know. ”
Meanwhile.
Mayor Momondo, who had just walked out of the castle, also saw this scene under the castle.
Mouth wide open.
"Trial of the Dragon!"
Those who are recognized are crowned heroes, while those who are not recognized are considered blasphemous and will be burned by the Endless Blue Flame.
As the mayor of the town, he can see much more literature than ordinary "people of the earth".
