Mind Master of the Elf World

Chapter 655 Teacher Jinghe Has Really a Lot of Face (Seeking Monthly Tickets!)

The Hoenn region, a mining area in Devon.

A hazy mist enveloped the surroundings, making visibility very low, with only faint lights visible in the distance.

This place seems to be located deep in the mountains, shrouded in white mist all year round.

Daigo, carrying a white suitcase, arrived here by helicopter.

Two Cocodora can be seen slowly pushing a rock; this is their dinner.

The two little ones didn't seem afraid at all when they saw people and continued doing their work.

At this moment, what was originally just the central area of ​​the mine has been cordoned off, and tents and staff dressed in researcher uniforms are busy at work.

Daigo walked straight in, and the staff immediately set up a cordon when they saw him.

Upon arriving at the center of the mining area, after some digging and polishing by the staff of the Devon Company, a strange and ancient altar that had been buried in the center of the mining area was revealed to Daigo.

On that altar were two dilapidated pillars and some strange patterns.

"A giant rock... turned into an altar?" Daigo was somewhat surprised to see this.

A staff member standing nearby said helplessly:
"Originally, this boulder was very hard. We didn't touch it because it might affect the structure and stability of the entire mining area. However, after the batch of energy ore you transported arrived at the mining area, the boulder itself cracked open with many fissures."

Finally, the staff carefully handled the altar and managed to remove it.

"Energy ore?"

Did he bring more than just ordinary ore from Shixiang Town?
However, Daigo didn't dwell on this issue too much.

"Where are the things?"

"We stayed up there, we didn't move."

The staff led Daigo to the top of the altar. Stepping on the strange patterns, Daigo felt a little uneasy.

Soon they arrived at the top of the altar, where Daigo saw the "thing" he had mentioned, standing beside two ancient but still very sturdy stone pillars.

A broken and ancient wooden slip.

The wooden tablet fit perfectly inside the suitcase.

"Do you know what's on it?" Daigo asked.

"We're still waiting for the company's archaeological team to interpret the results," the staff member replied truthfully.

"Too slow." Daigo frowned.

The staff were also helpless about this, explaining, "It's an ancient but not widely used script, seemingly used by a certain group during the ancient Hoenn period."

"It's nothing." Daigo waved his hand, his voice gentle, indicating that he did not mean to blame anyone.

He took out his phone and said, "I'll ask a professional to take a look."

As he spoke, he took a picture of the wooden slip and posted it in the "Teacher Jinghe's Classroom" group.

[Daigo digging for rocks]: (Wooden scroll.jpg)

The group chat quickly buzzed with activity.

[Wusong, still working overtime]: Wow! Such ancient and rare characters.

Even Wusong, who had read extensively in the Waterway Library and was considered extremely knowledgeable, was somewhat surprised by the rarity of the ancient characters on the wooden slips.

[My name is Daye]: You, Wusong, weren't you working overtime?! @Wusong who's still working overtime

[Wusong, still working overtime]: Who are you? @My name is Daye
【Daigo Digging for Rocks】: Everyone, does anyone recognize the text above? I'm waiting online, it's urgent.

【Dragon Tamer Adu】: It's very ancient. I don't know much about this kind of thing.

Princess Gadriya: You should ask my Cynthia about this. @BusyCynthia
【I'll stab you to death】: You can also ask Teacher Jinghe. @Teacher Jinghe
【Dragon Tamer A-du】: Who are you? @StabYouToDeath

【I'll Stab You to Death】: Come to the Seven Islands, I'll stab you to death!

【Dragon Tamer Adu】: I'm outta here.

As he watched the text messages flashing by in the group chat, Daigo couldn't help but smile, but his expression also showed helplessness as he covered his forehead.

The staff members standing nearby were very curious about the young master's amused yet melancholic expression.

Could it be the champions, the Four Heavenly Kings?
[Daigo digging for rocks]: @Teacher Jinghe, @Busy Cynthia
However, neither of them replied.

[Wusong, who is still working overtime]: The boss just came back from Carlos a couple of days ago. She's probably already up Tianguan Mountain by now, where the signal isn't very good.

Carlos?
Did Cynthia go to the Carlos region to see Teacher Jinghe?
Daigo knew that Jinghe had traveled to Carlos during the summer.

[Daigo, digging for stones]: Where's the teacher? @Teacher Jinghe
[My name is Daye]: Generally speaking, there are two reasons why Teacher Jinghe doesn't appear.

Ok?
Two reasons?

【My name is Daye】: The first possibility is that he didn't see the message, or like the boss, he had a bad signal.

[My name is Daye]: If it's the second option, then that's troublesome.
【Daigo Digging Rocks】: Accept the challenge once.

Holding his phone, Da Ye grinned and started typing.

【My name is Daye】: The second possibility is that this matter involves too many things, and Teacher Jinghe needs to digest it.

Is this too big of a deal?

Daigo frowned, looking at the wooden slips in the suitcase, feeling a little heavy-hearted.

【My name is Da Ye】: However, with Teacher Jing He's personality, no matter how big the problem is, it's not a big deal. Da Wu, just do your best, and leave the rest to Teacher Jing He.

[Wusong, who is still working overtime]: Da Ye, how could you say something so reasonable?

【My name is Da Ye】: That's right! (Infernape proudly.jpg) Wait! Don't you not know me?

Seeing the group chat erupt in noise again, Daigo smiled and put away his phone.

He had to admit that what Da Ye said made a lot of sense.

Suddenly, his psychological pressure was greatly reduced.

It feels so good to have a tall person to hold up the sky even if it falls, and to have a reliable teacher behind you.

Once he relaxed, he actually gained something.

in the group.

[Ruri Mikori]: I might know a little.

"If the sky falls, there are tall people to hold it up, don't be nervous."

The storm lasted for two days, and today the rain was especially heavy. The sea wind was strong and the waves were huge. Even with the large draft of the ship, it was still a bit rocky.

This caused Snivy to become a little nervous.

Jinghe was also curious as to why the Shuiliu chose to sail at such a time, with its journey accompanied by storms, rain, and lightning, making it seem particularly impressive.

But the Flow was indeed stable; even with waves crashing against it one after another, the Flow only swayed slightly.

The signal was very poor, constantly intermittent, making it impossible to go up to the deck to sunbathe or fish.

But it doesn’t hurt.

That's the best we can do. Let Kyogre run rampant for a few more days. If it can withstand a torrential downpour along the entire sea route from Kalos back to Hoenn, then Kyogre will be truly awesome.

"Hiss, hiss!"

I'm not nervous at all!

The snail stubbornly insisted.

“Look at Young Kylas.”

"Yo~ hiccup~ yo-ji?"

Young Kiras, who was sitting in the room leisurely munching on diamonds and even swaying happily with the ship, raised his head, his mouth still covered with glistening particles, and let out a soft burp, looking completely bewildered.

Jinghe laughed and said, "The little guy who should be most afraid of water is so carefree."

"Hisni! (#｀Van)"

Snivy called out to Young Gilas.

It's okay, keep eating!

"Yo-yo~"

Oh ~
Young Kiras buried his head and continued eating.

He is not active in doing things and has problems with his thinking.

Full?

Burping doesn't necessarily mean you're full.

"Hisni! (▼Dan▼)"

The vine snake climbed directly onto Jing He's head and began stomping on it.

I told you to stop talking! I'm not afraid! Not at all! I'm not nervous either!

Although she was making noises, her movements were not heavy at all; it even felt like she was being massaged.

Jing He smiled.

This little guy has a sharp tongue but a soft heart; he's tougher on the outside than anyone else, but in reality...
Jinghe leaned back on the sofa, letting the vine snake "vent" as it pleased, feeling so comfortable that she wanted to close her eyes.

Unlike Gengar, if Gengar wants you to squint, you really can't expect to open your eyes completely again.

"Speak of it."

Jinghe put her hands behind her head.

"With Larvitar and Snivy, it feels like we have another excuse to roam the Baby Cup?"

The proof of becoming a "Master Trainer" is quite difficult to obtain.

"Genga~"

Gengar floated in through the glass of the balcony, its body dripping wet. It then floated to the side of Azure Blade Ghost, stretched out its hands as if warming itself by a fire, and soon its body dried.

on the balcony.

The martial arts bear master also climbed up, and with a sudden shake, he shook off all the water droplets on his body, but his fur became droopy.

This may explain the difference in fur patterns between tardigrades and mongooses.

However, Martial Arts Master Xiong was still holding something in his hand.

Several lively sea fish.

He pushed open the door and came in, handing the fish in his hand to Rotom, and then, just like Gengar, ran to the side of Azure Blade Demon to warm himself by the fire.

Azure Flame Blade Demon was already used to this.

These past few days, Gengar, Urshifu, and Dragonite have been going out together all the time, messing around with the Pokémon in the ocean—cough, no, I mean having friendly exchanges with the Pokémon in the ocean.

"Oven form, Loto!"

Rotom transforms into a heated Rotom, tossing the already prepared fish into the oven to bake directly.

It's inevitable to have different flavors of food every day.

They also change their flavors.

We've had grilled fish, grilled octopus, grilled conch, grilled lobster, and more.

Jinghe was suspicious. If they were allowed to eat freely, it might disrupt the ecosystem of a marine area. Therefore, he stipulated that they could only eat a little each day, no more.

It added a bit of novelty to the boring and tedious voyage under the torrential rain at sea.

Watching the little ones crowd around the Rotom oven, looking so eager, Jinghe stretched and then sank deep into the sofa.

Although these days are a bit boring.

But he also had to admit that compared to all sorts of dramatic events, he preferred his current lazy and leisurely life.

"really."

Jinghe yawned.

"Deep down, I'm still a homebody."

It's good that the world is at peace.
so
Cynthia is about to become the champion, so Daigo will probably be soon too.

Similar to Cynthia, Steven's strength may not yet be at its peak, but considering the shortage of staff in the Hoenn League—no, it should be said that the shortage of people who can work—it's probably coming soon.

By the time.

He was the champion's boyfriend and the champion's teacher.
It's both classy and comfortable!
Hoenn region.

"The script of the Meteor Dwellers?"

Daigo looked at Michael sitting opposite him, somewhat enlightened yet also puzzled.

Mikuri is a descendant of the ancient Glass People, who are on par with the Meteor People. In ancient times, the Meteor People and the Glass People had some connection.

Therefore, Mikkelsen barely knew the origin of this wooden slip. Thus...
Michael was then taken in by Daigo.

"Can you decipher these characters?" Daigo couldn't help but ask.

Mikoli rubbed his temples.

"It's a little difficult."

He was, after all, a citizen of the Glass People, and a remnant of their ancestors; to know these things already showed his extensive knowledge.

Mikoli leaned down, staring at the wooden slip, and said haltingly:

"I can only decipher part of it: the megalith, the path, the door, the key's glow? No, the glowing stone?"

"No, no, no."

Michael shook his head and sat back down in his chair.

"It's too ancient, and this wooden slip seems to have been incomplete to begin with. I can only try to decipher it based on the ancient script of the Glass People."

Ultimately, Mikkelsen wasn't an archaeologist.

"A door? A path? Glowing stones?"

Daigo frowned.

This content is incoherent, consisting of only a few nouns; who knows what any of it means?

"and many more."

Daigo suddenly seemed to remember something and ran out of the tent.

Mikoli didn't understand what was wrong with him, but she followed him anyway.

soon.

The two returned to the altar. Daigo stood before the two massive, broken stone pillars and said:

“Michael, look, this stone pillar and altar... doesn’t it look like a door?”

Upon hearing this, Mikoli paused for a moment, then shrugged and said somewhat helplessly:
"If you're going to make this up, then there are a lot of possibilities."

Daigo rubbed his nose, realizing that his words were a bit far-fetched.

"Door, Road"

These two terms are too broad.

Only the word "stone" has "glowing" in its description, making it relatively easier to find.

"A glowing stone," Daigo murmured.

Mikoli looked around and couldn't help but reach out and gently stroke the stone pillar.

The rough texture is a sign of antiquity.

The patterns on it.
Mikoli's gaze followed the patterns until it swept over the stone embedded in the bracelet on his wrist, which emitted a faint seven-colored light.
!!!

Mikoto suddenly turned around and looked at Daigo.

At the same time, Daigo also looked at him with some excitement.

The two said almost in unison:

"Mega Stone!"

There are many glowing stones, but the Mega Stone was the first thing that both of them thought of at the same time.

“So, there’s a slight sign of a groove here,” Daigo said.

“Mine is too.” Mikoli touched another stone pillar, feeling the marks on it.

The two looked at each other again.

Try?

Try it!

Anyway, they were just guessing, and there's a high probability they were wrong.

Ever since.

Steven and Wallace each took out their respective Mega Stones and placed them into the slots.

hum-

Almost the next instant.

The two's Mega Stones emitted a dazzling seven-colored light, which quickly spread along the patterns on the stone pillars and altar, eventually condensing into a passage leading to the distant mountain peak shrouded in clouds.

The employees of the Devon company below saw this and all ran out, looking astonished.

Actually, Daigo and Michael weren't much better off.

They stared in astonishment at the staircase that had appeared before them.

“The door?” Mikoli said softly.

"The road?" Daigo asked as well.

It seems like everything suddenly makes perfect sense?
The two climbed the steps.

Soon they arrived at another altar located on a mountaintop, which was larger and relatively more complete. The seven-colored light emanating from the altar below converged at the center of this larger altar.

click -

With the sound of a mechanism, a crack opened in the middle of the altar.

Followed by.

A giant rock, also radiating seven-colored light—no, it should be said to radiate an incomparably dazzling seven-colored light, overflowing with iridescent brilliance—slowly rose from the center.

"This is."

Upon seeing this stone he had never seen before, Daigo was suddenly jolted.

"A Mega Stone?" Mikuri murmured, his eyes wide with disbelief.

Such a large Mega Stone?

This was something neither of them had expected.

however.

Before the two could recover from their shock...

Boom! !
A muffled, thunderous boom suddenly erupted in the sky, and a massive, azure-blue dragon shadow appeared amidst the thick, dense clouds.

Daigo and Wallace sensed an extremely strong danger almost simultaneously. They both took a few steps back and grabbed their respective Poké Balls.

As the green figure in the clouds rapidly approached until it came into full view of the two, their pupils shrank to the size of pinholes!
A giant green dragon soared through the sky, its powerful and terrifying presence and its scarlet eyes filled with contempt awe-inspiring disdain.
The legendary Sky Dragon, Rayquaza!!
"Roar!!"

The roar, tinged with barely concealed anger, was like a thunderclap in their ears, causing the two to tense up abruptly. The strong airflow made their clothes flutter and their hair fly wildly.

"Rayquaza," Daigo said in a slightly hoarse voice.

Mikoli swallowed hard.

Who is he? Where is he? What is he doing here?

correct.

He was just there to help Daigo decipher a wooden slip, so how did he end up seeing the legendary Rayquaza?
Although this wasn't the first time they had seen Rayquaza, they had also seen it from afar when Rayquaza fought the alien visitor Deoxys in Moorland City.

However, the feeling of viewing it from a distance is completely different from the feeling of being so close at hand.

But soon.

Daigo and Michael quickly calmed down.

Even the likes of Liekongzuo.
"Roar!!"

Rayquaza roared again, its body spinning rapidly in the air before hurtling straight toward the massive, seven-colored boulder at the center of the altar.

then.

Daigo and Michael witnessed the most shocking thing they had ever seen in their lives.

hum-

I saw.

Rayquaza emitted a familiar light, the light of Mega Evolution, with a rainbow of colors enveloping the light of evolution. The massive seven-colored boulder vanished into thin air, and the symbol of Mega Evolution appeared above Rayquaza's head before quickly dissipating.

"Mega evolution?" Mikuri opened his mouth, not knowing what to say for a moment.

The legendary Pokémon, Rayquaza, the Sky Dragon, has actually Mega Evolved?
"Roar--!!"

The rainbow light faded, and the Sky-Sided Serpent reappeared in their sight, its appearance drastically changed.

"Super, Rayquaza."

You are not the inheritors!

Mega Rayquaza's aggressive gaze swept over Daigo and Wallace.

Successor?
Daigo and Michael exchanged a glance.

Mikoli, a descendant of the Glass People, seemed to understand something.
"The Legend of the Meteor Dwellers?"

"legend?"

Mikoli's lips drooped slightly, and he spoke quickly:

"Legend has it that a thousand years ago, a giant meteorite was about to hit the Hoenn continent. The Meteor People prayed to a seven-colored meteorite for Rayquaza's help, and Rayquaza answered their prayer, and the crisis was eventually averted."

"Meteorite? A prayer?"

"The legend has a second half. It is said that a thousand years later, a huge meteorite will appear again. At that time, the inheritor will find Rayquaza again and try to gain Rayquaza's approval, and finally, together they will resolve the crisis."

As a descendant of the Glass People, Mikkuri is not only the Gym Leader of the Glass Gym, but also the Guardian of the Sky Pillar.

The Sky Pillar is said to be the place where the inheritors attempt to undergo the trials of Rayquaza.

However, over the years, omissions are inevitable in the transmission of knowledge, and Mikuri had not previously connected this matter with Daigo's wooden tablet.

Now he understands.

This giant rock that enabled Rayquaza to Mega Evolve was the very rock that the Meteor People worshipped a thousand years ago, and it was their only way to contact Rayquaza!

Daigo, on the other hand, was more focused on the content of Michael's words.

There was also a huge meteorite?

Now that Rayquaza has appeared, wouldn't that mean...
Considering your relationship with him, I won't make things difficult for you.

Rayquaza glanced at them coldly, said nothing more, flicked its tail and soared into the sky. The Mega Evolution features on its body quickly faded away, and it returned to its original form.

but.

Along with Lie Kong, the enormous, seven-colored boulder that had appeared earlier also disappeared.

Watching Rayquaza leave, both Daigo and Michael breathed a slight sigh of relief.

Although they are not afraid of challenges, it is better to avoid such challenges if possible.

As for who the "he" that Liekong is talking about is...
"Professor Jinghe has a lot of influence," Mikeli exclaimed, clicking his tongue.

Daigo nodded in deep agreement, a hint of pride in his eyes.

My teacher has a lot of face to save.

But very quickly.

Both of them realized the seriousness of the matter.

The key point is not Rayquaza's appearance, nor Rayquaza's Mega Evolution, but the prophecy of the Meteor Dwellers.

The phrase "a thousand years later" is too vague; who knows which year it will be?

But the appearance of Rayquaza and their discovery of this enormous, seven-colored boulder seemed to confirm something.

And
"I feel that the appearance of this seven-colored boulder is not just 'simple'."

The Giant Rock that allows Rayquaza to Mega Evolve must bring something to the table.

This left Daigo and Michael feeling quite heavy-hearted.

If they hadn't been curious enough to try and open this path, this door, and release this seven-colored boulder, probably nothing would have happened.

If things go as they think, it will be accompanied by a series of troubles and even disasters.
“I’ll go inquire about the situation at the Green Ridge Space Center,” Daigo said.

“I’ll go back to Liuli City and review the ancient books of the Liuli people to see if I can get any more information,” Mikoli said.

And this moment.

Jinghe was still slowly making her way back.
