Chapter 285: Acting Heavenly King? (3-in-1)
"Arceus calling me?"
Looking at the gods of the lake in front of him and hearing their words, Xia Yan subconsciously shrank his neck.
The first reaction was that the matter he discussed with Giratina was known to Arceus, so he wanted to "talk" with him.
After the group of people in Poplar Town's Galactic team was destroyed, the three little guys of the gods of the lake recovered.
Xia Yan didn't ask how they were caught, so as not to cause them a bad reaction and disgust.
With the exception of Yaknom, Yukishi and Emrido are not in great form.
It is estimated that they will stay more carefully in their respective lake spaces in the future, and will not reappear except for some people who are really worthy of recognition.
And the three little guys, who are also the three gods created by Arceus, are endowed with will, wisdom, and affection, and their tempers are much better than those of the three anti-bone boys of Giratina.
Therefore, to a certain extent, they can also serve as Arceus's spokesperson in Sinnoh.
"ε~~"
Yaknom surrounded Natsuhiko.
It is also the best relationship with Xia Yan among the three little guys.
Follow its gaze.
Xia Yan looked at the towering Tianguan Mountain to the east.
"The top of Tianguan Mountain?"
Arknom nodded repeatedly.
"I see, I'll go see it when this is over."
Xia Yan decided to use the procrastination trick.
Delay it for a while, wait for the limelight of the matter to pass, and then go to see Arceus, by then the shrine may have been completely built, and he will at least have the results to be able to get his hands on.
"ε~~"
It is confirmed that Natsuhiko has received the message.
The three little ones did not stay any longer, and when they noticed someone approaching, they waged their tails and slowly disappeared.
Natsuhiko could feel that they were gone.
"Xia Yan, who are you talking to?"
Wataru and Shirona walked over.
They had simply finished explaining the matter to the alliance troops who had arrived, and they found Xia Yan as soon as possible.
Xia Yan gently stroked the Ice Six Tails who had fallen asleep in his arms.
"No, what's going on?"
Sirona's coat was already tattered, wearing a black bodysuit, and her long golden hair hung down on her chest, but instead of covering it, she showed her capital against the background of the almost contrasting colors of gold and black.
Don't look at the usual Sirona in her coat and doesn't seem to have too many curves, but now it seems that the capital is still very good.
"Fortunately, the damage was not large, and Dialuka and Palkia finally repaired the town of Poplar, and apart from some frightening residents, there were basically no injuries."
Sirona tightened her arms.
Xia Yan lowered his eyes.
Still took off his coat and draped the little black suit over her shoulders.
Look at the busy alliance people.
"Fortunately, it was saved."
Said with a little emotion.
Feeling the residual temperature on her clothes, Sirona's pretty face blushed slightly.
Nodding his head, he said:
"King Kikuno said that when she has arranged the tasks here, she will take us away first, and the president wants to talk to us."
"President?" Xia Yan raised his eyebrows.
The president of the Sinnoh Alliance, Xia Yan has only heard some rumors about him, and has never seen a real person.
The one he came into contact with the most was Kikuno, the Four Heavenly Kings who managed the gym.
"I guess I wanted to ask about Giratina, and about them. Let's talk about Ryuichi Hoshino. β
Ryuichi Hoshino?
Xia Yan pressed his hat, "I see." β
Scratch your head and look at Wataru.
Wataru's gaze kept sweeping over Natsuhiko and Sirona.
Suddenly made eye contact with Xia Yan, and was slightly stunned.
He shrugged his shoulders and said, "I'm going back to Guandu." β
"Don't check it out?"
The main purpose of crossing Sinnoh is to investigate Natsuhiko, the hunter.
"How can you. However, what happened this time also involves us in Guandu, and I will go back and report it. β
Although he didn't make it clear, they all knew that he was talking about Liu Bo.
Liubo single-handedly stopped Dialuka and Palkia, and to the residents of Poplar Town, he was definitely a savior.
But his relationship with Chiri is likely to become the target of attack by people with intentions.
Wataru wants to go back through his own relationships to minimize this possibility.
Xia Yan didn't speak, just patted him on the shoulder.
Wataru understood what he meant.
I saw him say solemnly: "Don't worry, there are some things that everyone can see." β
Then he smiled and said: "Of course, I will solve this matter quickly, and then come back to continue my investigation, I must arrest this hunter!" β
The corners of Xia Yan's eyes twitched.
He suddenly felt a little like those who were being targeted.
"Well, go back quickly."
Sinnoh Alliance Headquarters Building.
Chairs in the promenade.
Natsuhiko, who was wearing a black shirt, and Sirona, who was wearing a coat that didn't fit well, sat here.
Waiting for the meeting of the president of the alliance to end.
Xia Yan hugged the little six tails.
Didn't do it there and waited.
You can see that the mouth of the little six-tailed lying on his lap is slightly open, and a cloud of light blue ice crystals hovers in front of it.
As Little Sixtail's tail floated back and forth, it carefully controlled its ice energy.
Every puff of white mist is absorbed by the blue ice crystals in front of you.
At the same time, it can be seen.
With each puff of white mist, the color of the ice crystals fades a little.
The round ice crystals look very rounded, but if you look closely, you can see that they are actually full of edges and corners.
The little six-tails looked serious.
With each bit of ice energy it injected, it became more and more difficult to control.
Neither Natsuhiko nor Sirona spoke, and both looked at the hard-working little guy silently.
Sirona's eyes were even more surprised.
She knew very well that Little Six-Tails should only be trying for the first time.
But is it possible to do it this way?
Although this ice hockey is small, it actually contains a rich ice energy, which is the product of combining the skill of "Frozen Beam" with the skill of "Absolute Zero".
She didn't know whether to praise Xiao Liuwei's talent or Xia Yan's good training.
Of course, in addition to them, there is also a pair of eyes watching.
That was the burning insect lying on Xia Yan's shoulder.
More than a month has passed, but the incendiary insects still have not finished their juvenile stage.
The title of the most difficult elf in the insect system is vividly displayed.
However, Natsuhiko could feel the temperature change of the burning insects.
It is over the juvenile period, and it should be only a few days.
Xia Yan was also a little curious about what kind of strength the burning worm that had inherited the power of the Vulcan Moth would have after it ended its juvenile stage.
"Woo~~"
The burning insect looked at the gradually pale ice crystals in front of Little Six-tails, and sniffed closer with some curiosity.
It has long been familiar with the little six-tails.
But this is the first time I have seen such ice crystals.
Obviously, a large amount of ice energy was injected into it, and it looked very powerful, why didn't it feel the slightest drop in temperature?
Even when it got closer, it didn't feel the change in the temperature around it.
It's not cold at all.
Out of curiosity.
The incendiary insect lifted one of its legs, wanting to touch it.
But it didn't notice the little six-tails' gaze to keep it away.
Fortunately.
Before it could boldly touch it, it was stopped by Natsuhiko.
"The little guy is not small, but he doesn't want his hands?"
"Huh?"
The incendiary bug tilted its head curiously.
I didn't understand what Natsuhiko meant.
Natsuhiko flicked it lightly on its mischievous head.
"Natsuhiko, Sirona, the meeting is over, come in."
Then.
Kikuno, with a tired face on his face, opened the door to the conference room and said to the two people outside the door.
As the door to the conference room opens.
Some of the league's staff members came out one after another.
I also saw the two people sitting in the doorway.
They are no strangers to Natsuhiko and Shirona.
But there are still relatively few close encounters.
These people have different eyes.
Some people are filled with admiration, relief, and curiosity, while others are of course filled with scrutiny, jealousy, and even subtle hatred.
As many people like it, as many people hate it.
Natsuhiko and Shirona had long been accustomed to this kind of gaze.
"Whew~~"
But gradually noisy sounds.
made Little Six-Tails a little unable to concentrate on condensing ice crystals.
The round ice crystals in front of its eyes began to shake.
Xia Yan's face tightened, and Sirona's face also changed slightly.
"Don't be affected by the outside environment, calm down, and stabilize the control of energy."
His reaction was a bit loud, making people passing by even more curious.
Quite a few people stopped.
"Pretending to be a ghost?"
Someone said disdainfully.
It's just a Xiaoice ball, so why are you nervous?
Are you talking about the Six Tails, or are you saying that they are too noisy?
Meanwhile.
Kikuno, who was tired, noticed that Natsuhiko and the two did not come in, and walked to the door to see what was going on.
She saw a crowd of people watching from far and near.
And Natsuhiko and Shirona were still sitting in their chairs.
When his gaze swept to the hockey ball shaking in front of Xiao Liuwei's eyes, his complexion changed slightly.
"Natsuhiko, are you trying this thing in the building?!"
Kikuno squeezed his temples with a headache.
Her vision is not comparable to that of the group of "clericals" who are watching.
Xia Yan also looked helpless.
"I didn't expect the little guy to be able to do this on his first attempt."
"For the first time?" Kikuno was stunned.
Immediately, he looked at Xiao Liuwei and Xia Yan with deep eyes.
sighed.
"Don't look at it, it's scattered."
Kikuno waved his hand helplessly.
There's an extra PokΓ© Ball in your hand.
And Kikuno's reaction made all the onlookers stunned.
Notice the appearance of these people who "do not believe in evil".
Kikuno's wrist smacked.
"Forget it."
Let's talk about it.
Bang ββ!
She closed the door to the conference room.
And after she closed the door, Little Six Tails finally failed to persist and stabilize.
See you.
The color of the ice crystals in the shape of the small round ball in front of it instantly turned pale, and a huge crack appeared, followed by more and more fine cracks.
All of a sudden, the temperature in the entire corridor plummeted.
At this time, someone finally realized that the situation was wrong, and they came to open the distance.
The next second.
Bangββ!!
The puck exploded.
The temperature throughout the corridor is as if it has gone straight from summer to winter.
The walls, the ground, and the ceiling were instantly covered with ice crystals, and the faces, hair, and clothes of those onlookers were also stained with thick ice crystals.
Time.
It's like entering a world of ice.
However, the "culprits" Natsuhiko and Little Six Tails, as well as Shirona, where they were, were not affected much because of the protection of superpowers.
This.
The expressions of the onlookers suddenly lost their ability to manage.
It's really lost the ability to manage, because it's frozen.
"I'm sorry."
Xia Yan said lightly.
Holding the six tails, he picked up Sirona and strode to the conference room.
Hurry up!
Sirona covered her mouth lightly, bent her eyes, and saw the appearance of those people, it was like going to the freezer to take a shower, it was so funny.
Boom.
The door to the conference room was closed again.
The talent in the hallway reacted.
Click, click, click
With the sound of ice crystals colliding with every movement, these people didn't care about scolding Xia Yan, and if they didn't leave, they would freeze to death.
After entering the conference room, Natsuhiko and Shirona looked at each other and smiled.
Natsuhiko was originally capable of controlling the impact of the loss of control of the last hockey puck.
But some people looked at him with bad intentions, and he gave up such a plan.
Anyway, the really smart people have already run away under Kikuno's reminder, and those who don't believe in evil standing there have more or less no kindness to him and Sirona.
Since no one is afraid, he doesn't care.
Just cool them down.
"Ahem."
Kikuno's cough sounded.
She stared at Xia Yan who came in, and said solemnly: "In the future, don't try Liu Bo's hand in a crowded place." β
Xia Yan nodded.
"Okay."
Little Six's first attempt to achieve this level also surprised him.
No wonder Liubo takes it so seriously.
"Sit down."
A warm voice came.
Xia Yan looked for prestige.
I saw a middle-aged man in a wide robe, sitting in the first seat of the empty conference room, with a gentle smile on his face.
It's just that his face is very pale, and it gives people a very weak feeling at first glance.
Even.
He was not sitting in a position either, but in a wheelchair with a brown towel covering his legs.
If it weren't for his position, Xia Yan would even suspect that he was a patient who had not yet been discharged from the hospital.
The man in front of him.
It is the current president of the Sinnoh Alliance, Igor Alexander.
One. People who are not very healthy.
The technology of the elven world is very advanced, and the general life expectancy of human beings is relatively high, and many diseases can be cured.
Igor, who is the president of the alliance, has such a sick posture, which shows that his illness is not simple.
And being able to sit firmly as the president of the alliance with a serious illness, his ability and skill are beyond doubt.
"President."
After Natsuhiko and Sirona shouted, they sat down on the right side of Igor at his signal.
Kikuno sat on his left side.
"The rest of us are going to deal with the remnants of Team Galaxy and the Hoshino family."
As if he saw Natsuhiko's doubts, Igor explained with a smile.
The Alliance's response speed is still very fast.
It is estimated that after knowing what happened in Poplar Town, he acted as soon as possible.
It should be that he wants to use the momentum of thunder to minimize the impact before the remnants of the Galaxy team and the Hoshino family react.
The meeting just now was all civilian, and it is estimated that this is not the first meeting.
Thus.
This President Igor was sick.
But the wrist is still very tough.
"This incident involved a total of four Daoist Hall owners and two Four Heavenly Kings."
Igor rested his hands on his laps.
His expression grew serious.
"Two?"
Natsuhiko and Shirona were stunned.
"The matter of Hoshino Ryuichi has been revealed, and the matter of the other water king Blaise has also been pulled out by Shunto, and the flying king Kirwin has already tried to hunt down, and we have also declared the general alliance, and they will help." Kikuno explained.
No wonder she looks so tired.
Time of day.
There are actually two Four Heavenly Kings in the Sinnoh Alliance who have problems!
According to Xia Yan's knowledge, the water system Heavenly King Blaise is also a veteran Heavenly King.
And Kirwin, the king of the flying system, is relatively young, just like Kikuno.
Has the Sinnoh Alliance been decayed like this?
Then it is estimated that within the rest of the regional alliances, it will not be very good, right?
Xia Yan didn't expect this situation to appear.
"Man's desires are limitless. It is the source of motivation, but it is also the source of evil. President Igor sighed.
His composure surprised Natsuhiko.
Kikuno's face was tired.
And he was already in poor physical condition, so he actually looked a little more relaxed than Kikuno.
Listening to his words, Xia Yan nodded.
Perhaps, these two Heavenly Kings had enough contributions to the alliance at the beginning of joining the alliance.
But as time passed, so did people's hearts.
Ryu Hoshino pursued longevity at first.
Another Blaise may have started to pursue something else.
Gradually, it went against the idea of the Alliance.
This phenomenon is actually very similar to some of the history of Xia Yan's original world.
The founding fathers were often very honorable, but most of the founding fathers, after the emperor took the throne, often took away their rights and even their lives little by little.
Because they know that the human heart is uncontrollable.
Seems impersonal.
In fact, it is for the better continuation of the kingdom.
It's just that it's different from the historical phenomenon that Xia Yan understands.
Neither of the two veteran kings was deprived of their rights.
Sitting in the position of the Four Heavenly Kings for too long.
And it is not surprising that the current alliance is developing so rapidly, focusing on external development and ignoring the obsolescence of internal systems.
Maybe everyone is okay in normal times.
But as long as there is a situation, it is very likely that many people will be involved.
A glimpse of the whole picture.
The entire alliance is developing so fast, and the internal cannot keep up with the changes of the times, and it has decayed.
It's no wonder that so many veteran kings who really think about the alliance, like Kikuko, Liu Bo, and Genji, are all relieved to see the growth of Xia Yan and their group.
As long as they can replace those corrupt Heavenly Kings, it is possible for the Alliance to be reborn.
But now.
The change of the two Four Heavenly Kings of the Sinnoh Alliance is also a big blow to the prestige of the Sinnoh Alliance.
"The president doesn't seem to be very difficult to accept?" Xia Yan asked rhetorically.
Igor chuckled.
"The wound on a person's body has festered, and only by cutting this piece of rotten flesh can he live more healthily."
"Besides, as the president, if even I am in chaos, how can the people below calm down?"
His calmness made Xia Yan more or less admired.
It is precisely because of such people that Sinnoh can continue to develop.
Perhaps when this matter is over and the "carrion" is removed, Sinnoh's development speed will become even faster.
So that's not necessarily a bad thing.
"Calling the two of you here this time is actually mainly for a few things."
Igor brings the topic back.
Natsuhiko and Sirona sat up straight.
"First of all, the time and location of the Alliance Masters Tournament have been confirmed, and it will be played in Silver Mountain in three months."
Masters!
Xia Yan was in good spirits.
"I hope you will be able to represent Sinnoh then."
on this.
Neither Natsuhiko nor Shirona refused.
They were already waiting for the start of the Masters, and they had been preparing for it for a long time.
The Masters, to some extent, is the highest event in the elven world, and it is also the best way for most people to chase the position of the Four Heavenly Kings.
The reaction of the two made Igor very satisfied.
Natsuhiko and Shirona are the representatives of Sinnoh's current younger generation.
It doesn't matter what position you get.
The important thing is to give them a taste of the strength of the truly top-level trainers in this world.
"Second thing."
Igor's expression became more serious.
It's even a little more serious than facing the Masters.
"I hope you two can take on some of the burden."
"Huh?"
Xia Yan had a faint feeling
"I want you to temporarily take the position of the Four Heavenly Kings."
Temporary Four Heavenly Kings?!
Xia Yan and Shirona were completely stunned this time.
Let the two of them become the acting Four Heavenly Kings?
"You are. Earnest? Xia Yan hesitated to speak.
Igor bowed his head without hesitation.
Sirona opened her mouth to say something, but was interrupted by Igor.
"I know this is going too fast for you, and it might be better to wait until the Masters is over and then put the burden on you, which is what I originally planned."
After a slight pause, he continued:
"But the plan can't keep up with the changes, and this time things have too much impact. In order to eliminate the influence as much as possible and stabilize people's hearts, the two of you may not be the strongest, but they are the best option. β
Igor was calm.
He wanted to use the influence of Natsuhiko and Shirona.
to survive the impact of this event as much as possible.
There is a problem with the two Four Heavenly Kings, if this matter is announced together, the residents of the Sinnoh region must not be bombed?
It's best to use something sensational enough to hedge against the impact.
"Besides, I also know what you did about your battle with Ryuichi Hoshino in Poplar Town, and you are qualified, although you may also be criticized for it."
The corners of Xia Yan's mouth twitched.
It's not just criticism.
He felt that when this matter was announced, he and Sirona would take turns facing challenges.
If he really enters the Heavenly King level, he won't be worried.
The most important thing is that its own strength is not up to standard.
"Not now, of course."
Igor says:
"Although things can't be suppressed, I think if you really want to control it, it can be stable for at least a month before it is completely exposed."
A month?
Xia Yan fell into deep thought.
Calculate the situation of the elves.
He is not worried about the big needle bee and Hu Di.
They have all entered the Heavenly King level.
Pokkiss has also received a lot of gifts because of the awakening of Zernias, and he is the closest spirit to the Heavenly King level now.
On the side of the shield sword monster, there was a "course" that Giratina had promised, and he felt that there should be hope for a surprise attack.
It's just that Ladios, the Flame Monkey, and the Fairy Eevee are still a little worse after all.
But when Xia Yan has four elves to enter the Heavenly King level, he will try to completely subdue Dolong Barutto.
Once Dorong Baruto really joins the team, the strength will usher in a visible improvement.
With a little luck, maybe Ladios and Flame Monkey will also have a chance to sprint.
If there were five Heavenly King-level elves in his hands, coupled with his three-core array, an ordinary Heavenly King-level trainer would definitely not be his opponent.
Although there is still a little gap from the position of the Four Heavenly Kings.
But the word "agent" gave him a lot of buffer room.
Originally, he was still thinking.
Hoshino Ryuichi hung up how he could sprint to the position of the Four Heavenly Kings.
Will someone be the first to make a wedding dress for others?
But now it seems that his long-term development of influence has finally come into play.
Igor also valued his influence.
Once he occupies this position first, it is not so easy to think that someone will squeeze him out.
After all, he and Sirona are now in danger, and they have made a lot of contributions to the alliance, and the alliance will still look at this contribution and give it some convenience.
The talent and potential of the two of them, sitting in the position of the Four Heavenly Kings is also a sure thing.
All they lack is time.
The two did not speak, and Igor did not speak, just waiting for their consideration.
After a while.
Natsuhiko's eyes narrowed and he looked at Igor again.
Igor looked at him.
If you have something to say, you can say it directly.
Xia Yan did not hesitate this time.
"We want the tilt of resources," he said bluntly. β
Since the alliance wants to take them out to block the gun, then at least they have to come up with something practical first, and they can't just give them an empty title, right?
This time, Xia Yan felt sorry for his complicated mental activities.
Hear the words.
Igor smiled.
He had been prepared for this for a long time.
"Rest assured, from the moment you walk out of this conference room, all the resources of the entire Sinnoh Alliance will be completely tilted towards you in a month's time."
The resources of the entire Sinnoh Alliance are tilted?
That's not a simple condition.
Other words.
As long as he wants, he can let the alliance arrange two ordinary Heavenly King-level trainers to be sparring partners, he can go to the other space under the jurisdiction of the Sinnoh Alliance to practice, and he can eat one top energy cube and lose one.
None of this strength can be measured with money.
It's only a month, but there's so much that can happen in the space of a month.
Natsuhiko bowed slightly towards Sirona.
Sirona's brow furrowed, and she pursed her lips and nodded.
Igor smiled even more.
Reach out.
"Then, let's welcome the two acting kings to join the Sinnoh Alliance, and congratulate King Xia Yan and King Sirona."
Xia Yan Heavenly King?
Ah, comfortable.
