Chapter 302 Descendants of the Heroes, Magical Masked Meowth vs. Lucario

In the blink of an eye, two months have passed since I returned from the Ultramarine Coast survey mission.

With the help of Xiaozhao and others, many villagers have become more accepting of Pokémon. Pokémon and humans often walk together in the celebration village, which makes Xingyue very happy.

Although there are still some villagers who hate Pokémon, at least things are much better than before. Some villagers now have Pokémon living in their homes, and they get along harmoniously without causing conflicts at will.

In addition to these villagers, Hoshino and others in the Galaxy team are also running around all the time. Although they are an investigation team, they do not say that they cannot help other teams in their work. Each team has its own tasks.

Whether it is the security team, the construction team, the construction team, or the medical team and the farming team, they are all involved. In addition to handling the relationship between each member and Pokémon, there is also the relationship between members.

The construction team's project was successfully completed with the help of a few hands and powerful people, adding a lot of new houses to the village, which can accommodate more people.

Team leader Camellia was very grateful for this, and even asked Hoshino, who helped her find a powerful man, to choose a house to live in, but she was declined...

In this way, with their help, the development of Zhuqing Village is getting better and better. Both the villagers and the members of Team Galaxy have a great improvement in their impression of them, although Hoshino is still gossiped about a lot...

After two months of rest, all materials are almost ready. The next investigation mission of the investigation team will arrive soon. Xingyue has already issued a notice and will gather at the Galaxy Team headquarters tomorrow morning.

"The mission is finally here..."

After coming to Xicui for nearly half a year, Hoshino has completely adapted to the life here, but sometimes there are still some inconveniences in life.

Lillie coaxed Manafei to sleep, and then asked: "The investigation of Red Lotus Wetland and Obsidian Field is over, right? The investigation of Ultramarine Coast is temporarily over, so where will we investigate next?"

"Maybe it's at the foothills of Tianguan Mountain. I seem to have heard people from the security team saying something happened there recently, but I'm not too sure."

Hoshino thought for a moment and then responded. When he was handling some commissioned tasks these days, he heard members of the security team who had returned from the foothills of Tianguan Mountain talking about this.

After getting the answer, Lillie nodded lightly. She actually hoped to go to the foothills of Tianguan Mountain. It would be too miserable to go to the pure white frozen soil, it would be freezing to death.

Just as the two were talking in the dormitory, Zhulan and Xiaoguang suddenly walked in. After saying hello, the former sighed softly and said: "I still haven't found any clues about the manifestation mirror..."

Hoshino tried to ask: "Why do we have to find the manifesting mirror? The Xicui area is so large, it is undoubtedly a needle in a haystack. Why not find Dialga who controls time? Maybe we can go back."

"Forget it, I have only seen its statue in Pathé City so far... But I have seen stone slabs and stone walls carved with strange patterns in some ruins in Xicui. There are things like Dialga inside.

The portraits of Palkia and Palkia should be left by the ancient Sinnoh people."

Zhulan waved her hand, and then sat dignifiedly on the tatami. Lillie listened to this and asked curiously: "Ancient Sinnoh people? What are they?"

"They are a group of people who lived in the Xicui area a long time ago. It was only after I came here that I learned about their existence from some investigation of legends. Most of the ruins in the Xicui area today are left by them.

"

"It sounds like it's very powerful..."

"Of course they are powerful. These people believe in the Great Lord of Sinnoh, especially when a hero was born among them. He led the first generation kings to complete the test and challenged the Great Lord of Sinnoh. The specific results are unknown, but it also verified that Sinnoh

The Great Master is real."

Zhulan paused for a moment, then continued: "It's a pity that the hero met the Great Lord of Sinnoh, which also gave these people the idea of ​​​​seeing the gods... Why can you be selected and I can't?"

"With this idea in mind, they all became fanatical believers of the Great Lord of Sinnoh, and they would do anything to see the Lord of Sinnoh, which ultimately led to the self-destruction of the ancient Sinnoh people, leaving only some traces of legends.

"

"Then the Pearl Team and the King Kong Team came to the Xicui area and heard these stories, so they took over and became the new believers of the Sinnoh Lord, and began to take care of the king's descendants until now."

This is what Zhulan has inferred these days from some of the clues she has investigated about the ancient ruins of Xicui, as well as from the stories she learned from the Pearl Team and the King Kong Team.

After hearing this, Lillie frowned slightly, pondered for a moment, and muttered: "I feel like this Great Master of Sinnoh... doesn't seem to be a good thing."

"Be careful!"

Zhulan quickly covered her mouth. Some things are not something that can be said casually. It is very taboo, especially in the Xicui area where the myth originated!

Seeing how nervous each of them looked, Hoshino smiled, but didn't take it seriously. He waved his hand and said in a casual tone: "What are you afraid of? Just scold them as you like. If anything happens, it's mine, and..."

Before he finished speaking, there was a sudden bang, and the overhead beam broke and fell down. Before Hoshino could react, he was hit in the head and fell into a baby-like sleep. No one was injured except him.

Seeing Xin Ye Miao pushing his face with her flesh pad, Zhu Lan put her forehead on her head and shook her head. She looked at Lillie who was stunned and said softly: "Let me tell you..."

"..."

After Zhulan and Xiaoguang stayed for a while, they still had some things to do, so they left the dormitory.

Lillie took care of Hoshino who had not yet woken up, looked up at the broken suspension beam, and sighed softly: "It depends on the occasion, don't talk nonsense..."

"..."

On the second day, everyone in the investigation team came to the Galaxy Team headquarters. After such a long rest, everyone was full of energy and were already looking forward to the next investigation mission.

Xingyue sat at the desk and glanced over with a serious expression. After confirming that everyone was present, he nodded, stood up, and said: "Everyone's contribution to the celebration village these days has promoted the development of human beings and Pokémon."

I have seen things like getting along, construction and development, etc., and you have done a very good job. On behalf of the leader, I would like to express my gratitude to you!"

"These are all things that should be done..."

"This is the result of your joint efforts!"

Xingyue corrected herself, and then returned to the topic. She put her hands behind her back and said: "Let's talk about the next actions of our investigation team. Originally, the leader and I planned to go to the foothills of Tianguan Mountain, but now

Something happened, and you should have heard about it in the village recently..."

Seeing that some people were still unclear, she explained: "These days at the foot of Tianguan Mountain, there are often people or Pokémon troubled by nightmares. Not only our people, but also people from the Pearl Team and the King Kong Team. The specific reasons are

It’s not clear yet.”

"It's okay to be troubled by nightmares once or twice. In the long run, it will have a great impact on the mental state and also affect the investigation operations. However, this situation will recover as long as you leave the foothills of Tianguan Mountain for a while, so before we find out the cause in detail,

, Team Galaxy will not launch an investigation into the foothills of Tianguan Mountain for the time being.”

Hearing this result, Lillie really wanted to cry. If she doesn't go to the foothills of Tianguan Mountain, does that mean that this investigation mission is to go to the pure white frozen soil? Don't... you will freeze to death!

"Nightmare... It looks like the Nightmare God Darkrai has appeared in Tianguan Mountain."

Zhulan said in a voice that only a few of them could hear. Xiaoguang seemed to have some bad memories when he heard the name, and whispered: "Darkrai is too tricky..."

"How to say?"

Hoshino looked at it curiously, and Xiaoguang complained: "When I was traveling a few years ago, I helped a child who was troubled by nightmares. Although I didn't meet Darkrai head-on at that time, I was infected by the nightmare.

I haven’t slept well for half a month..."

"Can it still be contagious..."

"Yeah, it's really uncomfortable to have nightmares. I can't describe it to you. If you have experienced it, you will know that it is completely different from the nightmares you usually have, so I hope you don't run into Darkrai.

Some people don’t dare to go to the foothills of Tianguan Mountain.”

"..."

Seeing that Xiaoguang was so frightened, Hoshino became more and more curious about what this nightmare was.

However, Darkrai is at the foot of Tianguan Mountain and will not go there for the time being. I hope that the other party has not left by then. Maybe he can go and experience it...

While several people were discussing in low voices below, Xingyue also explained that this investigation mission was indeed to go to the pure white frozen soil. After going there, he would first stay at the snowfield base and then send people to the Pearl Team.

Because there is now a king ice rock monster in the pure white frozen soil that has fallen into a rage, the Pearl Team hopes that Xiaozhao can calm it down, and if a king is calmed down, it will also be helpful to their investigation.

"That's about it. You go prepare today. The pure white permafrost is very cold, food is hard to find, and the weather is quite bad, so prepare more clothes and food. Fortunately, it's only three days away from Zhuqing Village.

, you don’t have to worry too much about material issues..."

At this point, Hoshino waved his hand and continued: "Let's disband like this. Xiaozhao, you stay here. There are some things that I need to talk to you alone."

"Um."

After Xiaozhao stayed, everyone else left Team Galaxy headquarters and began to prepare.

Zhulan and the others left first, walking faster. Lillie looked a little helpless and lagged behind. Hoshino stroked her hair and said, "Wear more clothes, and with Xinye Miao here, there is no need to wear too much."

If you worry about these things, the worst thing you can do is hold on to it."

"Meow……"

Xinye Miao complained, why does she always let this young lady hug her? If she likes to pet cats, let her catch one by herself, and the cats will not be hugged.

Lillie hugged Mana Fei and said: "I'm afraid it will be frozen, after all, it is covered with water..."

"Afraid of the cold..."

Manafei whispered, and Xinye Miao immediately said that with it here, there is no need to be afraid of the cold. The eldest lady can endure the cold, but the child cannot!

"..."

Hoshino looked at Maomao, and couldn't think of anything to say for a moment, but the pure white frozen soil... that was his birthplace in this era.

And he suddenly thought of the strange-colored Zoroa. He didn't know how the little guy was doing now, or whether he was still hungry.

Seeing that Hoshino seemed to be deep in thought, Lillie asked curiously: "Is there any question?"

"No, I just thought of something."

Hoshino shook his head, and when he was about to go back to pack his luggage, a man wearing a farming uniform and a bamboo hat suddenly walked up to him, with a Lucario beside him. He then stopped and took the

He took off his hat, revealing his flowing hairstyle.

"Hmm? Is there something wrong?"

Lillie asked curiously. Although the other person was wearing the clothes of the farming team, she seemed to have never seen this person before, and he was carrying a Lucario. If she had seen him, he would definitely leave an impression.

The man nodded, then looked at Hoshino and greeted politely: "Hello, I'm sorry to take you some time, because Lucario seems to feel an unusual waveguide from you."

"waveguide?"

Hoshino was stunned for a moment. Although he knew what this thing was, what did it mean to be unusual? There were too many talent buffs on his body, causing the waveguide to mutate?

Seeing his confused expression, the man seemed not to know what waveguide meant, so he explained: "Waveguide is a kind of spiritual energy, which can also be said to be the spirit of every living thing."

"Um...I know what a waveguide is, I'm just confused about what you mean by this unusual thing."

"Sorry, I misunderstood."

The man responded, and then explained: "Owning a waveguide and using it as your own power are two different things. People who can use waveguides are called waveguide messengers. There are very few such people, and I am a waveguide."

Messenger, but you also have the potential to become a waveguide messenger!"

"Oh, that means I can launch wave missiles, right?"

As he said that, Hoshino also made a gesture of rolling balls. Seeing him like this, the other party was stunned for a moment and responded: "Well... that's more or less what it means, but it's very difficult for humans to use wave missiles."

Yes, even I can’t do it.”

"You can't make balls, it's boring."

"..."

The other party was speechless for a moment, but Lillie became curious and asked: "What about me? If he can, can I become a waveguide messenger?"

Although she has heard of waveguides, she also knows that waveguides are available in humans and Pokémon. Some Pokémon can even turn their own waveguides into wave missiles and use them. For example, Lucario can not only use wave missiles,

She can also sense other people's waveguides, but this is the first time she has heard of the existence of waveguide messengers.

But in response to her question, the other party shook his head: "Sorry, your waveguide is too ordinary."

"..."

Lillie instantly felt lost. Hoshino glanced at her, scratched his hair, then looked at the man in front of him and asked: "Since you said I have potential in this area, how can I stimulate it?"

"It's very simple. Let's have a spar with my Lucario. Rather than having various exchanges, let's have a battle first. That's our principle!"

The opponent and Lucario showed fighting intent at the same time. They had already seen the Pokémon beside Hoshino, so they raised this challenge. Of course... there must be other plans.

When someone challenges him, Hoshino raises the corner of his mouth slightly. Isn't this great? He has always accepted everyone who comes, and he will not give in!

"Then come on, go to the training ground!"

"no problem!"

The two made a decision in an instant, and Lillie followed curiously. There was no one at the training ground for the time being, and the venue was freed up, which was very convenient.

When both of them stood in position and prepared, the other party finally introduced himself: "My name is Yabai. I am currently joining the Galaxy Team to practice as a wave guide. I am also fulfilling my dream. Let's have a game.

Fight with all your strength!"

"This is exactly what I want. By the way, my name is Hoshino. Thank you for your advice!"

Hoshino let go of Xinye Miao and let the cat play. Looking at Lucario, who has a heart of justice, the evil-type one is not afraid and puts on a fighting posture.

"Meow!"

"Leo!"

Yabai would not be careless because Xinye Miao is such a small one, so he directly waved his hand and shouted: "Sword Dance!"

"Leo!"

Lucario danced a fierce war dance to increase his momentum, and his attack power was greatly increased. But Maomao had already arrived in front of him. The ability of the Jade of Disaster appeared, and the fire flashed past, instantly igniting the opponent!

But Lucario was not shocked at all, his eyes turned blue, and he endured the flames. He used the power of the waveguide to concentrate, and then swung out a comet fist, driving the wind of the fist, and the comet shined!

Seeing such power, Xinye Miao quickly dodged, but the opponent had already observed its next movements with a waveguide, stretched out his other hand to grab the cat's tail, and then hit it directly with the Comet Punch!

"Meow!"

Maomao was hit in the body and escaped on the spot, flying out of the field. When Yabai saw this, he shook his head with some disappointment and said: "I hope to see your full strength. Let's fight again next time..."

"This person is so strong..."

Lillie looked at Yabai who said this and felt the tacit understanding and strength between him and Lucario. Is this really not a trainer?

"It's really amazing. Being able to cultivate a Lucario to this level would give it a championship-level cultivation ability if it were put into modern times..."

Hoshino frowned slightly, then relaxed it, smiled, and said: "But unfortunately, you are not good at Pokémon battles. If you go all out, then don't hold back!"

"Um?"

Yabai and Lucario looked at the same time and saw a figure suddenly jumping over from where Xinye Miao fell. It was a big cat!

"Meow!"

The new leaf cat transformed into a magical masked cat and jumped back to the field. The whole body was flashing with green, and the lush characteristic was activated. Although there was a possibility that someone could not afford it, but since he wanted to go all out to fight, then naturally

Go on stage as the strongest cat!

"It's Big Cat!"

Mana Fei waved her little hands, wanting to go over and hug the big cat. Lillie looked at it curiously. She had seen New Leaf Meow turn into a Magical Mask Meow several times before, but she still didn't understand how it worked.

Seeing the Magical Mask Cat appearing licking its paws, Yabai and Lucario were stunned at the same time. They could see that the cat's waveguide seemed to be instantly strengthened, and the connection with Hoshino also became stronger.

"Big cats fight big dogs~"

Mana Fei continued to shout happily, but Lucario, who was a little more cautious, did not act immediately. The ever-changing flowers appeared beside it and detonated, and the pollen instantly enveloped the surroundings, blocking the sight.

The Jade of Disaster continued to activate, Lucario's special defense was lowered, Maomao rubbed the energy ball with his hand and smashed it directly. Lucario closed his eyes, held his breath, and used waveguides to sense the surroundings and look for traces of the opponent.

After discovering Maomao, it was too late to use other moves at this distance, so he rolled the wave missile with his hand, collided with the energy ball in the middle, the energy of the two balls intertwined, and finally exploded!

Lucario was knocked back by the impact, but the surrounding pollen was finally blown away. It opened its eyes, but a cat paw with pink flesh pads suddenly appeared in front of it, and it immediately swung its comet fist.

But at this moment, the cat suddenly retracted its claws and patted it as if it was a prank, with a little joy on its face. Lucario noticed something was wrong, but he didn't have time to stop, and punched a pollen bomb that suddenly appeared in front of him.

Above, it exploded instantly!

How could this be tolerated? Even if the effect was minimal, the ever-changing flowers combined with this lush idealistic nature caused Lucario to lie directly on the ground.

The Magic Mask Cat stood in front of it, folding its arms on its chest, looking down with a happy expression, then stretched out its pink tongue and licked the tip of its claws.

Seeing this scene, Manafei spread her hands, shook her head and said: "The poor dog is being played with by the cat..."

"You talk a lot!"

Lillie complained, and the Magical Mask Cat looked at Lucario who was trying to get up. When it rubbed the energy ball again and was about to throw it down, Yabai shook his head and said, "We lost.

, practice is still not enough, you have to keep working hard.”

"Leo..."

Lucario had no choice. He was still not proficient in controlling the waveguide. He could detect the bomb many times, but he was still fooled by the other party's feints and failed to predict its direction.

"Meow~"

Maomao stopped and did not mock the opponent for admitting defeat. Instead, he turned around and rushed towards Hoshino, hugging him, completely ignoring Lillie who was right next to him, but he seemed to be more restrained in his movements.

"Okay, okay, let me treat you first."

Hoshino touched the cat's head. The big cat was very comfortable to hold. It was probably more comfortable to sleep with, and it smelled very good. Unfortunately, Lillie's resentful eyes had already glanced over, so he had to change the cat back.

"Meow……"

Lillie walked forward with Manaphy in her arms, smiled and joked: "I met my opponent, I almost lost. I didn't expect that in this era, besides Xiaozhao, there are people who can train Pokémon to this extent.

"

"It's really a bit careless."

The two of them were talking, and Yabai came forward with Lucario and said: "Wonderful battle, the wave guide is not omnipotent. I hope that after we continue to practice, we will have a chance to fight in the future!"

"Maybe... there will be a chance!"

Although it is almost impossible for Hoshino to shake hands with him. When the other party finishes his training, he may have returned to modern times, but he cannot deny it.

Yabai nodded and asked curiously: "I don't think I have seen you before..."

"We have been here less than half a year."

"I see, Lucario and I went out to practice three years ago, and we just came back here today, ready to investigate the next place."

"investigation?"

Hoshino and Lillie were both curious. Yabai nodded and responded with a smile: "That's my dream. Have you heard of the original tree of the world?"

"The original tree of the world?"

"Yes, it is said that there is the place where Pokémon originated. The first Pokémon on this planet was born from there. I am looking for it."

Yabai told his dream that his ancestors went to the original tree of the world a thousand years ago and sacrificed themselves there to prevent a cruel war between humans and Pokémon, and that

The ancestors were therefore known as the brave men of Waveguide.

This is a story passed down by his family. His family has been waveguides for generations, and everyone will have a Lucario to accompany them. This is also because this ancestor had a Lucario, and he and his ancestors were together at the beginning of the world.

Tree sacrifice.

Although it was just a story passed down, no one knew whether it was true or false, but he wanted to find out and find out, so he joined the Galaxy Team to practice while looking for clues on this green land, because this is where all myths and legends come from.

origin.

"It sounds so great, the brave man of Waveguide..."

Lillie murmured softly. This was the first time she had heard of this story. Whether it was the hero of Wave Guide or the original tree of the world, but whether this legend was true or not, she expressed her gratitude to those who dare to explore the truth and make it their dream.

, show respect!

Hoshino silently wrote down this story, and then asked curiously: "Then did you find anything?"

"Well... I heard that the one who protects the original tree of the world is the legendary giant, but I don't know exactly what it is. However, in the ruins left by the ancient Sinnoh people in the Xicui area, some legendary giants were found.

Clues to the giant..."

Yabai began to talk about his three years of investigation in the Xicui area. He first discovered a rocky mountain ruins on the Ultramarine Coast. Unfortunately, there was only a statue of a giant in it and nothing else.

Later, he went to the foothills of Tianguan Mountain, entered the interior halfway up the mountain, and found an iceberg ruins, but unfortunately they were in the same condition as the Yanshan ruins.

So two years ago, he went out to sea to search and found an island where many ore and steel Pokémon lived. He settled there because the environment was very helpful for Lucario's training.

Not long ago, he ended his exploration of the island. Unexpectedly, he found a black gold ruins. Although there was also a giant statue, maybe the island was some distance from the land and the damage was not serious, allowing him to find some clues.

.

According to the traces left inside, he knew that thousands of years ago, the legendary giant was sealed in the Xuefeng Temple by the angry ancient Sinnoh people because he refused to hand over the stone tablet of the Great Master of Sinnoh.

Let it lose its freedom forever...

"So I returned to Zhuqing Village this time to rest for a while, then go to the Snow Peak Temple on the pure white frozen soil to look for this legendary giant. He should not be the guardian of the original tree of the world, but he is also the legendary giant.

The giant, there may be clues!"

Yabai told his purpose. If no clues were found this time, he was ready to leave the Xicui area, but he didn't know where to go yet.

After hearing this, Lillie was moved by his spirit of never giving up for his dreams and encouraged him: "You will definitely succeed!"

"Haha, thank you Ji Yan."

"By the way, tomorrow the investigation team will go to the pure white frozen soil to investigate the Pokémon there. It will be more convenient for you to go with them."

"No, I just came back. Lucario and I need to rest for a few more days."

Yabai shook his head, glanced at Lucario beside him, and then said: "Sorry, I have to leave for dinner first. See you later."

"Well, bye."

Hoshino and Lillie responded and watched Yabai leave. It wasn't until the other party disappeared that the former suddenly remembered: "He hasn't told me how to become a waveguide messenger yet!"

"Okay, okay, let's ask him again when we meet him. Anyway, he will go to the pure white frozen soil next time. It's not too late to ask him when we meet him."

Lillie tried to persuade her, then asked curiously: "The legendary giant... should refer to the three pillars of Regirock, Regice and Regis Chiru, right? I heard Miss Lila say that Feng

There was a trainer named Pyramid Pharaoh in the Yuan Battle Development Zone, and he conquered these three legendary Pokémon."

"Pyramid Pharaoh, he does have these three. There are quite a lot of sightings of the three pillars. After all, they are fabricated demons to protect the ruins. Compared to other legendary Pokémon, they are much more in number.

Quite a few.”

Hoshino explained, then paused for a moment, and then continued in a deep voice: "But the ones sealed in Xuefeng Temple are not the three divine pillars, but the existence that fabricated them..."

"Huh? Don't be the Riddler!"

"It's the Holy Pillar King. Its abstract portrait can be found in some ancient Sinnoh people's ruins. I have seen it before when I went to the Yunwu ruins for business, but there seems to be no illustrated record of it in modern times, or there is no

Preserved, or there is no record of its appearance in modern times."

Hoshino confessed directly and honestly. After listening to this, Lillie became more and more curious. The Pokémon she didn't know was indeed becoming more and more interesting. There are so many secrets hidden in the Xicui area!

"Let's go, go back and pack your luggage first."

"Um."

The two left the training ground, but after a while, Wangluo's figure suddenly appeared from behind a room, smiling with interest: "Whether it's Xiaozhao, Zhulan, or this little trainer, it feels like

It’s all so interesting…”

"Everyone can be the target of my plan, so who should I keep an eye on? Oh no, I want to keep an eye on them all...why can't I create a shadow clone?"

He suddenly grabbed his hair and was troubled, but the voice of his boss Yinren suddenly came from behind him: "Are you still hiding here and lazing around? I sold 10 orange fruits last month. I really have yours."

"Well...at least it's sold, right?"

Wang Luo smiled awkwardly but politely, turned around, looked at Yinren's lazy expression, and then ran away...

Soon the next day came, and everyone was ready to set off with the guard team, heading towards the pure white frozen soil in the northeast.

The three-day journey was quickly completed and we arrived at the snowfield base in front of Xuetao Valley. This is the starting point of pure white frozen soil. Passing through Xuetao Valley is the freezing wasteland. From there, you can feel

This area is scary.

Everyone camped here to rest and lit bonfires in a circle around the entire base. If you didn't rely on bonfires in this kind of place, you would freeze to death sleeping in a tent at night.

"It's so cold..."

Lillie was shivering, even though she was holding Mana Fei and Xin Ye Miao, she still felt cold.

Hoshino helped her set up the tent and said, "Sit here and rest first. It will stop being cold after a while."

"Mo Lizard~"

Milton was also saying that it was not afraid of the cold at all now. The electric current in its body was always providing heat. Even though its body was like metal, it would not feel cold to the touch.

The other Pokémon are similar. Saifu and Ironclad like this kind of place the most. They can ski freely and go out to play later.

At this time, Xiaozhao came over, looked at Lillie who was huddled up, and asked with some worry: "If you are afraid of the cold, you should go back. If you catch a cold or get frostbite, it will be difficult to recover."

"It's okay, there's a cat here..."

"Meow……"

Hoshino looked at them, shook his head, and then opened the map and looked at it, curiously looking for the area where he fell.

He found it quickly, because there are not many places with forests here, so he can find them just by looking for areas with a large number of ice rock monsters.

The forest was near the ice rock block and the glacier slope, and the ice rock block was where he was trapped by Amei. The valley was formed from the remains of a certain snowfield king that had been dead for thousands of years, so it became

The place where ice monsters live.

Such a huge ice rock monster can turn into a valley thousands of years after its death. It is definitely many times bigger than the Pseudo Dragon Treasure Master. It's a pity that I can't see it with my own eyes.

"The distance is not too far. Just ride there for an hour. You can go there for a walk tomorrow and take a look at those ice rock monsters."

He was making calculations like this, when Lillie suddenly smiled sheepishly and said: "Well... let me hold the cat to sleep at night."

"Well... you can see if you agree or not."

"Meow!"

Xinye Miao is determined not to do it, so I want to sleep with you? I don’t want to lose face, only Hoshino can sleep with me!

"All right……"

Lillie was a little regretful. It seemed that she could only wrap herself in a few more quilts when resting at night. She hoped it wouldn't be too cold and there wouldn't be a blizzard.

Hoshino looked at her expression, thought for a moment, scratched his hair and said, "If you are really afraid of the cold and can't sleep... I can sleep with you in my arms."

"???"

After Lillie was stunned for a moment, her expression suddenly became alert, and then she said: "This is a one-person tent, what do you want to do, bad guy..."

"It's okay, just pretend I didn't say anything..."

Hoshino didn't have any bad intentions, he just thought that if Xinye Miao didn't agree, then everyone would be together, that would be fine, but he felt that there was something wrong with his own idea.

"It's broken. My brain is also frozen..."

He scratched his hair and walked aside to warm himself by the fire. Lillie looked at him sitting there. Although her expression was still a little wary and resentful, her heart was filled with confusion. She didn't know what she was thinking just now.

At this time, Dr. Laben walked to the bonfire in the middle of the base and waved his hands to signal everyone to stop what they were doing and gather here because they had something to say.

So Hoshino, Lillie and the others all walked over, there must be something important.

After everyone arrived, Dr. Laben said: "According to the information sent back from the Pearl Village, there will be snowstorms from time to time in the southwest of the cold wasteland. I don't know what the situation is. It may be Pokémon, so avoid it."

If an accident occurs, our investigation direction will start from the east and then circle around to the north!"

"On the way, you can rest at the Pearl Village, and there is also an iceberg base. This time we are similar to the Red Lotus Wetland. There are three places where we can rest. As for Xiaozhao..."

Dr. Laben looked at Xiaozhao and continued: "You will go to the Pearl Village tomorrow. You will not participate in the investigation mission for the time being. You will help them solve the problem of the Snowfield King's rage."

"no problem!"

"Well, and Hoshino..."

"What about me?"

"Yes, you take the guards to the iceberg base tomorrow. Although it feels weird... but you can escort them there. I heard that there are signs of avalanches there recently, so to be on the safe side, we plan to first

Move the base to a nearby location, you may still need to fight Pokémon."

"no problem."

Hoshino nodded. This place of pure white frozen soil is different from other places. Pokémon are too densely distributed. Instead, there is snow everywhere. It is difficult to walk without taking a detour.

If you want to take a shortcut, you need to face those Pokémon. Although everyone in the guard team can fight, it will be much easier if there is a trainer.

In this way, Dr. Laben continued to assign tasks to everyone. Anyway, Zhulan and Xiaoguang continued to act separately from the team, and they planned to start directly from the southwest of the cold wasteland.

After the arrangement was over, everyone continued to busy themselves with what they were doing, and the sky gradually dimmed. The pure white frozen soil at night was even colder than during the day, the cold wind blew from the Snow Valley, and the bonfire kept swaying...

Lillie was in the tent, wrapping herself tightly. Manafee never left her, staying with her no matter how cold it was, instead of going with Cat.

And in the middle of the night, her tent was suddenly opened. Hoshino sat aside and looked at Lillie who had wrapped herself up without even showing her head.

So she took out some handmade heaters and put them in her tent. The whole tent became much warmer instantly. These heaters were powered by electricity, and Millton had already fully charged them.

"It shouldn't be too cold this way. It's a bit crude. There really aren't any good materials, so just make do with it... Also, what I said this afternoon seems to have made you angry. I hope you don't think too much about it."

Hoshino continued to watch, and finally reached out and touched the quilt lightly.

"Good night~"

The tent was closed and Hoshino went to rest, but the quilt suddenly started to shake.

Lillie, who was not asleep at all, poked her head out and looked at the simple heaters. She didn't know what to say, and then sighed softly.

"Fool, who is angry with you..."

As she spoke, feeling the temperature inside the tent, she glanced at Manafei who was sleeping soundly. It was finally not cold anymore and she could sleep peacefully.

There was silence at the snowfield base, the bonfire continued to sway in the cold wind, and everyone was waiting for the arrival of the next day in a sweet dream.

And somewhere in this pure white frozen soil, a still injured little fox was running in panic on the snow. Behind it, there were clouds of will-o'-the-wisps following. There were many others who didn't rest at night...
