Pokemon Dawn

The afterglow of dusk dissipated, and endless stars emerged in the night.

There is a small cedar forest by the Bingjing River, which is a relatively safe camping spot that Xiaoye has already chosen. Although the appearance of Snow Boy caused Xiaoye and his party to delay a lot of time, fortunately, the cedar forest is far away from where Snow Boy was found.

It wasn't far away, and the trees covered with snow were faintly visible at the end of the field of vision.

Since Snow Boy was injured, Xiaoye tentatively asked if she should hold it and carry it on the way. She thought that Snow Boy would definitely not trust her, a stranger she met for the first time - but she didn't expect that this little guy would treat Xiaoye, and even Xiaoye herself.

All the Pokémon nearby were unsuspecting and jumped into Xiaoye's arms obediently.

This caused Xiaoye to wonder for a moment whether she was still in the other side.

I remember that it was written in the atlas that the Pokémon living in the polar ice sheets were very wary of outsiders due to their stable and harmonious living environment. However, the reason why this snow boy could approach me so relaxedly was because of

It's still a young kid, probably.

The body temperature of the ice-type Snow Boy is much lower than that of humans, and it is cold and soft to the touch. Xiaoye did not restrain the Snow Boy with force, but the little guy being held did not move or struggle at all. Its little hands were tight

Holding Xiao Ye's sleeves, he raised his head to look at Xiao Ye from time to time, blinking his ice-colored eyes.

The electric mouse on the shoulder finally couldn't help but stretched out its claws and poked Yukidouzi in the face - of course, he only got a confused tilted head and a look back at him. This time, he was frightened a lot by the Pokémon in the other land.

The little Pichu finally felt relieved and happily chatted with Snow Boy.

Riolu, who was walking beside Xiaoye, cast his gaze at Yukidouji from time to time, with a little bit of unobvious surprise on his expression.

Arriving at the cedar forest safely, after dinner, Xiaoye and his party built a simple snow house as a resting place - tents or sleeping bags alone cannot withstand the cold of the snowfield, neither for Xiaoye nor for treasures that are not cold-tolerant such as big birds and forest lizards.

Both Kamu and the igloo are necessary.

Of course, in order to prevent the igloo from melting, the fire-breathing dragon with a flame on its tail was ruthlessly driven out of the igloo and could only sleep pitifully at the door.

——This guy is not afraid of the cold at all anyway.

That night, Snow Boy fell asleep right next to Xiao Ye.

Xiao Ye knew very well what kind of expectations Snow Boy had for her. In its sleep, it subconsciously balled up its body, like a child who was afraid of something. For this little guy who was still too young, it was in unbearable pain.

Xiaoye, who comes to rescue her at the right time, may be the last person she can rely on.

The unknown creature that controls lightning caused the large-scale appearance of crystal lantern fire spirits, and that "creature" may be related to the suspected human figure seen in Shenling Mountain. Since it may be related to humans,

This matter is not only a natural competition between Pokémon groups, but Saya, who is also a human, does not need to deliberately avoid it.

When this simple-minded snow boy fell asleep next to her without any suspicion, Xiaoye decided——

She will not disappoint Snow Boy's expectations.

April 23rd, early morning.

When the howling wind and snow stopped, the polar ice sheet was a very quiet place. However, the early morning belonging to Xiaoye and his party was not quiet at all.

"No, no, it's gone! Qiu is really missing! Ahhh, where did Qiu go?!"

Pichu was as anxious as an ant on a hot pot, circling around the igloo.

"Charizard, did you really not see it? You were obviously at the door Qiu??"

"Ah..." The red fire dragon shook his head, looking a little annoyed.

"Calm down, Pichu." Xiaoye stopped Pichu from running around, picked up the electric mouse, and looked around the igloo carefully again.

The snowstorm last night covered up the footprints, but there was really no trace of a fight around. In other words, Snow Boy could not have been kidnapped by anyone - not to mention, the position where Snow Boy fell asleep was right next to Xiaoye, even if

With the sound of the strong wind covering up, it was impossible for Xiao Ye not to notice the fighting.

Therefore, it could only be that Snow Boy left on his own.

In such a situation - its hometown is occupied by other ethnic groups, and its body is still injured, where will it go alone?

Xiaoye only thought for half a minute before making a decision.

She left the three Pokémon, Tabby, Forest Lizard, and Ghoststone, in the igloo, and told them to stay where they were. If Snow Boy came back, let him stay. She took the remaining three Pokémon with her.

The Pokémon set out to find traces of Snow Boy.

The heavy snow that stopped until early morning covered Snow Boy's footprints, and his scent was not found within the detection range of the waveguide power. There were no clues that could clearly indicate the whereabouts of Snow Boy. Therefore, Xiaoye had no choice but to focus on the cedar forest.

He quickly circled around and inspected the area. Charizard was in the sky, Gyarados was in the river, and Pichu was lying on Xiaoye's shoulder as always, trying not to miss any useful information.

It's a pity that Charizard hasn't learned to fly with people yet, otherwise the search would be much faster.

The power of the waveguide expands outward to the extreme range, capturing every move of every living thing.

There are not many Pokémon in the polar ice fields, and even fewer Pokémon appear within the detection range. However, when a familiar yet unfamiliar aura emerged, Xiaoye's first reaction was to immediately withdraw the Charizard hovering in the sky.

, made a "diving standby" gesture to Gyarados, and ducked behind a nearby pine tree.

"Hey, eh? What's wrong, Qiu?" Little Piqiu also covered his mouth tightly and asked quietly - he was obviously using telepathy to communicate, so why did he cover his mouth?

The strange aura quickly disappeared from the detection range, but Xiaoye's eyes still stayed in that direction and she lowered her voice.

"It's the man from Shenling Mountain."

Compared with the blurry figures seen in Shenling Mountain before, this sighting was much clearer, and the information returned by the waveguide detection was also clearer.

That was indeed the breath of human beings, and the twisted and depressing feeling it carried was the same as that of Shenling Mountain. After just a moment of detection, Xiaoye was sure that she should not approach this dangerous creature.

However, if this figure is the person who released the purple thunder in Shenling Mountain - he is undoubtedly the culprit who ran down the mountain and brought countless crystal lanterns. The disappearance of Snow Boy may have something to do with him.

indefinite.

Therefore, Xiaoye followed quietly.

In order to prevent being noticed, she did not let Charizard fly into the sky, but let it stay quietly in the Poké Ball for the time being. Gyarados traveled underwater, closely following Saya's pace by the river.

If Xiaoye's waveguide detection is only released in one direction, the short-term limit distance can reach five to six hundred meters, so that he can stay far enough away from the mysterious man without losing him.

The mysterious man moves very fast. Without making too much noise, even Xiaoye needs to do her best to keep up with him. And——

His speed is still increasing.

While trying to ensure that she would not be thrown away, Xiaoye glanced at the atlas.

Sure enough, this direction is towards the Ice Crystal Lake at the foot of the polar snow mountain. The Snow Boy's habitat is at the foot of the mountain, so it shouldn't be far from the Ice Crystal Lake.

When this conclusion was reached, the mysterious man was completely out of Xiaoye's detection range - if he wanted to catch up with him, he would have to use moves such as thunder and lightning, but the explosion of thunder and lightning was too loud and was not suitable for quietly attacking him.

track.

However, even without the guidance of the mysterious person, Xiaoye was sure that she needed to go to the Ice Crystal Lake to find out.

At noon, after climbing over a low snow hill, Xiaoye arrived at her destination.

The wind and snow during the day were not as violent as at night, and the chill caused by the low temperature was dissipated by the heat generated by running for a long time.

Xiaoye saw a lake called Ice Crystal Lake - this was supposed to be the end of her journey.

The lake is directly connected to the Bingjing River, which stores melted ice and snow water from the mountains. The crystal clear lake surface is very quiet, and occasionally small water ripples are rippled by the cold wind.

"There's nothing there..." Pichu muttered quietly.

Xiaoye's waveguide power swept along the lakeside with her sight. She no longer captured the mysterious man's aura, nor did she find any trace of Snow Boy, nor did she see its tribe or the crystal lantern spirits that Snow Boy had mentioned.

Maybe we should take a closer look around the area?

As soon as this thought arose, he was overwhelmed by the sudden feeling of trembling that followed.

When the little Pichu exploded, Xiaoye turned around quickly.

She saw a scene she didn't want to see——

On the top of the snow hill she just passed, stood a figure wrapped in bursts of purple lightning.

They were violent thunders from purgatory. They were dense and violent, and so bright that they were almost blinding. Despite this, it could still be seen through the beating lightning that their operators had a unique human figure.

The next second, Pichu suddenly felt that the world was spinning. He was shocked to find that he was thrown out by Xiao Ye, spinning around in the air and then plunged into the snow.

"Boom——"

For Xiao Ye, who had witnessed the sudden change in Shenling Mountain, the sound of thunder was too familiar. She tried her best to use the lightning flash at the highest speed, narrowly avoiding the bombardment range of the purple sky thunder.

That was thunder that could make a huge giant rock monster a hundred meters high fall down. Even if it was only scratched a little, it was not something the human body could withstand.

When the lightning failed, the figure rushed over.

The bright purple enveloped its bullet-like figure, and the crackle and explosion of electric light in the air turned into unimaginable propulsion. Even the speed that Xiaoye was proud of became worthless - the full-force thunder flash

But it was just a successful dodge for one round.

The thick palms wrapped around Tianlei and clasped Xiaoye's neck fiercely. Then, water splashed and the two figures were submerged into the cold lake water.

"Master...?"

When Pichu climbed out of the snow with difficulty, there was no one around the ice crystal lake.
