Since the situation of the World Tree has not reached such a serious level, there is no need for Ash and Lucario to risk their lives to save the world. If Lucario had not pushed Ash away in the movie, the World Tree would definitely not mind absorbing one more person's wave. Although after doing this, Xiaozhi and Lucario may be weak for a while, and the wave power in their bodies will become dormant. But as long as you have a good rest for a few days, the power of the wave will be revived, and after being refined by the World Tree, it will become even more refined. Just as Gongsun Yan and others were making preparations enthusiastically, in Dasha Valley, hundreds of miles away, a dark-skinned man appeared at the entrance of the valley. "Is this the Dasha Valley? As long as I capture the Pokémon here, I can definitely defeat that bastard Gongsun Yan and that guy named Xiaozhi. Mew will definitely be mine!" After hearing these words, everyone must have guessed who this person is. It is Xiao Hao who disappeared after leaving Jinhuang City. He is now standing at the entrance of Dasha Valley, his eyes full of greed. "No entry, no one allowed. Children, please leave now." Xiao Hao had not been standing at the entrance of Dasha Valley for long when a staff member appeared in front of him, yelling at him and telling him to leave quickly. "What are you talking about? I'm Dr. Sakuragi's assistant. This is my ID. I'm here to do research!" How could Xiao Hao remain silent when being scolded? He simply gave the other person a cold look, and took out a certificate from his pocket, and shook it in front of the staff member's face, looking like a villain who had succeeded.
"Such a little kid can be an assistant. Never mind. The ID is real. You can go in. Remember one thing. You are only allowed to look, not touch anything. Do you understand me?" The staff member looked through Xiao Hao's ID. He originally thought Xiao Hao was a liar, but it turned out that he was a genuine person. Although he was full of doubts, he had no choice but to let him in. However, before leaving, he still gave Xiao Hao a serious warning. For some reason, as soon as he saw this dark guy, he felt that he was not an easy person to deal with. Facing the staff's reminder, Xiao Hao naturally sneered, not touching anything? If he didn't touch anything, then why did he come here. So Xiao Hao silently called the other person a fool in his heart and then swaggered into the Dasha Valley. He was planning to do something big later, so he had to check out the place first. Oh, there is one thing I forgot to mention. Xiao Hao is not actually Dr. Sakuragi’s assistant. After all, no matter how short of manpower Dr. Sakuragi is, he would not let Xiao Hao be his assistant. Even if you are very hungry, you will have to choose leaves and mud. Not many people will chew on a stone, especially the kind buried in the toilet. Disgusting, disgusting! So the certificate is fake, but it could also be real, because although Professor Sakuragi did not let Xiao Hao be his assistant, Xiao Hao often came to the research institute to play, and he wrote down all the relevant operations and processes. So Xiao Hao secretly "borrowed" a computer from the Sakuragi Research Institute and got himself an assistant's certificate, thereby gaining the right to enter Dasha Valley. You have to know that after that incident happened, the entire Dasha Valley was controlled by the Alliance, not only to protect the fossil Pokémon that survived to this day, but also to study the environment of the underground caves and find out how these fossil Pokémon survived. So, without the endorsement of the doctor, no matter how ambitious Xiao Hao is, he cannot enter Dasha Valley. Chapter 170: Sleeping Fossil Pokémon "It's almost done. Just do this and that, and finally do this. It's perfect. The preparations are almost done." In the cave, Xiao Hao finished the final preparations, stood up and looked at his results of more than an hour's work, with a satisfied smile on his face. "The only thing left is the last step. Hazelnut Ball, the rest is up to you. Use self-destruct in ten minutes." Xiao Hao took out a Poké Ball from his body, released a gray-green Pokémon, placed it in a hole on the rock wall, and whispered instructions to him. I believe everyone is familiar with the Pokémon called Fiddlehead. Xiaogang once captured a Fiddlehead, although it has now evolved into Foretto. Although this Pokémon can in principle learn a large number of moves, most Fizzard Balls will only use one move in their lifetime, which is self-destruction. When Xiaogang captured the Hazelnut Ball, he used a quick ball, so he was able to capture it before he exploded.
However, for Xiao Hao, a "one-ball superman", he naturally does not need any fast balls. After all, he cannot afford these special Poké Balls. How much money can an "orphan" have? By the way, in order to realize his ambition, Xiao Hao even went to the forest to capture the hazelnut ball, so that it could act as a bomb. After all, in the Pokémon world, bombs are extremely difficult to buy, and Xiaohao's identity makes it impossible for him to meet anyone who can sell such things, so he chose the Fizzy Ball. As for why they didn't look for Thunderball and Thunderbolt, it was simply because they couldn't find them. Electric Pokémon generally only live in special places, like unmanned power plants. Although it is not impossible for Xiao Hao to find it if he spends some time, he has now gone crazy and desperately wants to become stronger, and is willing to do so at any cost. So why did Xiao Hao embed the hazelnut balls in the rock wall? In fact, it is very simple, because behind this rock wall, there are many ancient Pokémon sleeping, and Xiao Hao wants them to "see the light of day." However, this place was clearly discovered by the Alliance, but due to carelessness or something else, it had been neglected, which allowed Xiao Hao to take advantage of the opportunity. Then it is very obvious what Xiao Hao wants to do. There is a song that says it well, "Gently wake up the sleeping soul~". Xiao Hao didn’t know whether the explosion of the hazelnut ball would awaken the sleeping soul, nor did he want to know. Anyway, it was just a way for him to attract the attention of the staff. One thing you must understand is that these ancient Pokémon are not the same as those that were resurrected using the fossil resurrection device. The bloodthirsty genes in their bodies have never been dormant. According to the Alliance's research, there is a huge cave under the entire Dasha Valley. When the ancient Pokémon became extinct, a considerable number of ancient Pokémon actually hid inside and escaped the disaster, at least several hundred or even thousands of them. But what about now? The Alliance once moved some high-tech instruments over and thoroughly examined the cave, but they only collected less than a hundred life reactions. So where did the rest of the ancient Pokémon go? Just look at the bones scattered in the cave, not to mention that there are many creepy tooth marks on those bones. Although Fossil Pokémon can use sleep to reduce their own consumption, reducing consumption does not mean there will be no consumption. To be honest, when these fossil Pokémon first entered the cave, they might have been thinking about huddling together for warmth, even if the other Pokémon were on their menus. Because according to the alliance's investigation, there was no trace of fighting in the cave for a long period of time, which shows that peace was maintained for a long time. However, the world will eventually unite after a long period of division, and divide after a long period of unity. It is obviously a dream to want complete peace. Even humans will cannibalize their own children in extreme situations, not to mention those fossil Pokémon that feed on blood. Although the fossil Pokémon that have been resurrected through fossils still have some bloodthirsty nature, it has been extremely weak due to the passage of time. Combined with a series of guidance operations from the League, there has been no fossil Pokémon that cannot overcome its love for flesh and blood. All of them have switched to eating Pokémon food and energy blocks. But what will these fossil Pokémon in the cave, which were hunting wantonly the day before the disaster, do when they are extremely hungry? We naturally have no idea what happened during that time, but the result is that there are less than a hundred fossil Pokémon left today, which is the limit of what this cave can support. That’s right, this cave is also a small ecosystem that can barely provide some creatures at the top of the food chain. Therefore, after these fossil Pokémon have reached a critical point of killing each other, they immediately turned into pacifists, each staying in their nests and refusing to go out easily. After all, fighting consumes physical energy, and the gain does not outweigh the loss. What Xiao Hao wanted to do was to make this group of old otakus who had been hiding for who knows how many years move. As for whether there would be any casualties afterwards, that had nothing to do with him. As long as his goal was achieved, it was fine. What can we say about this? Some say Xiao Hao is a typical egoist, some say he is a real villain, etc. In fact, these descriptions are all correct, but there is nothing we can do. It is difficult to persuade a dying ghost with kind words. "boom!!!" Ten minutes later, all the staff in Dasha Valley felt a strong vibration under their feet. They quickly grabbed something beside them to stabilize their bodies and did not let go until the vibration disappeared.
"What's going on? Is this another earthquake?" The staff were wondering where they were when suddenly the alarm in the camp sounded. A broadcast nearby announced that a group of fossil Pokémon had gone berserk, and the team urgently called for capable staff to come and help. Upon hearing that there was a fossil Pokémon causing trouble, some strong staff members rushed over quickly, and the rest of them evacuated in an orderly manner. Everything seemed so orderly. There is no way. After all, this situation has happened more than once or twice. Japan is an island country after all, and earthquakes are frequent. The staff has encountered it more than once, and there have been cases where fossil Pokémon have been awakened due to earthquakes. Originally, it was no big deal for these fossil Pokémon to be woken up, as they were used to earthquakes and could just go back to sleep. However, because there are many Alliance personnel stationed here, the smell of a large amount of fresh blood and food obviously stimulated these fossil Pokémon that have been hungry for a long time, so a riot is inevitable. Chapter 171: Killing Fossil Pokémon "Damn it, we have to hold on. The people behind us haven't finished evacuating yet. We can't let them get through." A staff member who was obviously a leader (let's call him the captain) looked at the situation in front of him anxiously. Many fossil Pokémon were attacking their defense line. If we only compare the combat power of the two sides, the Alliance has an absolute advantage. Compared to the hungry Fossil Pokémon, the Pokémon on the Alliance side can be said to have no worries about food and clothing. However, the battle between Pokémon has never been a simple matter of comparing combat power. Even the Gwent card game is not that simple and requires consideration of many aspects. Just looking at the class, the fossil Pokémon are barely at the elite level because they have not had enough food for years, and they are not considered strong even in the wild. On the Alliance side, although there are no Elite-level Pokémon, there are still two Quasi-Elite-level Pokémon. According to calculations by a senior member of the Alliance, these combat forces can even deal with the counterattack of all fossil Pokémon, and at the very least can hold out until reinforcements arrive. The staff here also thought so, that's why they came here so actively just now, in order to make some contribution and maybe get some rewards from the alliance. As a result, they ran over excitedly, but were immediately trapped in this quagmire and could not get out at all. They could only feel distressed and pray, praying that this chaos would end quickly. The previous earthquake only attracted a few fossil Pokémon, which were easily suppressed by their dozens of times greater numbers. This was one of the reasons for their miscalculation. However, there were more than twenty Pokémon that appeared this time, while the Alliance had less than sixty Pokémon, and the numerical advantage instantly became less obvious. After all, apart from the many others, each of these fossil Pokémon that have escaped the fate of extinction has the power to kill five at once, and this is in a group battle. Please note that what we are talking about here is one killing five, not one against five. If you can kill five by yourself, then you can hold back two fives, or even three fives. There is a Chinese idiom that goes, "When a weasel gives birth to mice, each nest is worse than the last." This proverb can barely be applied to the world of Pokémon. Compared to the ancient world where the strong preyed on the weak, modern Pokémon are undoubtedly superior in level. But if a fight really breaks out, 99% of modern Pokémon will be killed on the spot by fossil Pokémon before they can even last three moves, even if they have an advantage in strength. Because they underestimated the enemy, many staff members' Pokémon used their ultimate moves right away, trying to defeat these rioting fossil Pokémon in one go and get the greatest credit. As a result, due to the lack of basic defenses, several fossil helmets launched an attack from underground, and almost immediately eliminated opponents of the same number as their own, and successfully disrupted the formation of the alliance. Don't underestimate these fossil helmets. You have to know that during the turmoil, many evolved fossil Pokémon were lost. It would be even more difficult for these unevolved fossil Pokémon to survive. Those who have learned about ancient wars know that when two armies faced each other in ancient times, the side with a chaotic formation would be defeated by the side with a strict formation, even if its number was ten times that of the other side. What's more, these fossil Pokémon were like hungry wolves, with unprecedented ferocity and morale, and they broke through the alliance's defenses in an instant. And in this kind of large-scale melee, the role of the trainer is compressed to the extreme. After all, no matter how powerful the trainer is, it is impossible to command everything in this situation. It depends more on the combat qualities of the Pokémon itself. It just so happens that this is the absolute strength of these fossil Pokémon. If the support had not arrived in time, these Pokémon, without exception, would have been killed by these fossil Pokémon. Even those eager-for-success staff could not escape the bad luck.
But even so, in the end several Pokémon could not be rescued, and most of them suffered injuries of varying degrees. However, the most serious damage was probably mental, after all, they were facing a group of lunatics. But these fossil Pokémon that are full of irritability are not just crazy. Although they are crazy, they actually understand tactics and know how to cooperate with each other, making the Alliance, which is used to fighting alone, suffer a lot. During this period, some trainers thought of using Poké Balls to retrieve Pokémon, but although the group of fossil Pokémon didn't know what Poké Balls were, that didn't stop them from using their bodies to block the recycling light. "Damn it, if this goes on, our defense line won't hold. Hasn't the backup arrived yet?" The captain's face became increasingly uglier as he watched injured Pokémon being dragged down one after another. The reason why they are able to barely stabilize the battle situation is because of their numerical advantage. As a result, their side keeps suffering casualties in the battle, but the opponent has no awareness of protecting the wounded at all. Even if they are seriously injured, they will not keep fighting. The degree of danger is increasing instead of decreasing. There is a saying passed down from generation to generation by old hunters: "Never approach a dying beast, as this is the most dangerous moment in their life." To make matters worse, due to the impact of the earthquake and the large-scale battle, the remaining fossil Pokémon in the cave also ran out one after another and joined this "feast". However, the quasi-king-level Pokémon that the captain originally regarded as his trump card were stopped by a Scythehelm, and seemed to be at a disadvantage and could only hold on with difficulty. I saw that the mouth and sickle of the sickle helmet were stained with dark green blood, and there was even a piece of gray-green body tissue hanging on his body. That's right, the hazelnut ball that Xiao Hao left behind as a bomb is gone. When he blew himself up and fell unconscious, he happened to encounter the strongest sickle helmet in Dasha Valley, which provided him with a lot of energy. Originally, this Scythehelm was almost unable to compete with these quasi-king-level Pokémon due to the restrictions of numerous debuffs, but the energy brought by the Filbert Ball was like a timely help, allowing the engine that had run out of ammunition to start again. Fortunately, the alliance has many Flying-type Pokémon that can restrain opponents in the air, and there is even a quasi-king-level Flying-type Pokémon, otherwise this Scythehelm would be able to kill indiscriminately. However, this barely supported situation completely collapsed with the appearance of a certain Pokémon. If support did not arrive, everyone here would be doomed. This Pokémon is the king of the ancient sky, the Fossilized Pterosaur! Chapter 172: Fossilized Pterosaurs, Attack The moment the captain saw the fossil pterosaur appear, he instantly felt that his life was over. Given their current situation, they could not withstand a dive from the fossil pterosaur. It sounds helpless, but the disadvantage of the army against the air force is even more than ten times that of the infantry against the cavalry, and as long as the pterosaurs want to run, the alliance can't even stop them. "Is this earthquake so severe? Even a fossil pterosaur appeared. When will the reinforcements arrive? Is the Pokémon teleportation device so difficult to repair?" The captain's expression was extremely bitter. Now he didn't even want to comfort the other team members. No one was a fool. They all understood the moment they saw the fossil pterosaur. As mentioned before, Pterosaur was the king of the ancient sky, and its strength was naturally the strongest among ancient Pokémon. After all, the advantage of flying was too great. However, as a price to pay for its powerful strength, the appetite of the Pterosaur is the largest among ancient Pokémon. The daily food intake of one Pterosaur is enough to feed two Scythehelmets, which is too much of a burden for the caves under the Dasha Valley. In addition, the flying ability of Pterosaur was greatly restricted in the cave, so when the turmoil began, it was targeted by other Fossil Pokémon. Even if Pterosaur was strong, it could not withstand such concentrated fire. This resulted in the number of fossil pterosaurs surviving being only a handful, but although the number of these fossil pterosaurs was small, their strength was extremely strong. Currently, the king in the cave is a fossil pterosaur. But at this time, there were two fossil pterosaurs appearing in front of the captain. This was not the last straw that broke the camel's back. Their combined weight was heavier than all the previous straws. And don’t think that just because these two fossil pterosaurs have been sleeping in the cave for so many years, they have become unfamiliar with the sky. The instinct to fly is engraved in their DNA. The fossil pterosaurs that had just emerged from the pit were still a little confused, but when they looked up at the vast sky above their heads, they instantly became excited, roaring and flying towards the vast sky. They slept for too long, and they had left the cave at times during this period, but all they saw was a gray sky and the air was filled with dead silence. That huge meteorite directly destroyed the entire environment in which the ancient Pokémon lived, and this time there was no Arceus' clone to take the blame. The fossil Pokémon that were originally spread all over the world were basically all gone, and there were probably less than a thousand that survived by chance.
It is normal for Arceus not to take action. After all, this meteorite will only destroy the Pokémon living on this planet and will not have much impact on the planet itself. There is no need for him to take action. After enjoying the vast sky to their heart's content, the two fossil pterosaurs finally felt hungry. Their originally gray-green pupils were covered with scarlet. Looking at the chaotic situation on the ground, they began to dive directly. "Has the teleportation device been repaired? If not, we'll die together!" The captain shouted behind him, and the team members around him began to tremble in their hands and feet. This was pure blood suppression, and it was humans' natural fear of the world's top predator.
