Divine Plan? But I'm a Pokémon trainer.

Chapter 268 The seal is lifted!

The deep sea, like the deep space, carries the dreams of mankind. To this day, there are still countless mysteries that have not been solved, and no one has ever reached the deepest part of this planet.

It is said that the "Kaiyuan No. 1" manufactured by the Kusunoki Shipyard was built with the standard of heading to the 10,000-meter-deep trench in the Hoenn region, but unfortunately it has been snatched away by the Ocean Fleet.

The Plasma, the ship the group was riding on, was also the crystallization of human technology. It carried everyone to the bottom of the sea, and they finally saw the notice stone chamber recorded in ancient documents.

What is surprising is that although it is deep under the sea, there is still a hole with oxygen preserved here due to mysterious power.

According to Fire Fox, this is the power of the "Seal" move, which can block the sea water out.

Mary and others who walked out of the submarine couldn't help but be surprised by this unreasonable scene.

“It seems that there is no need to wear protective clothing.” Mary said in Dai’s camera, “It feels almost the same as on land.”

The latter gestured to indicate that the camera was functioning normally.

"Are you planning to release the video here?" Xiaoyou subconsciously avoided the camera's range.

"Yes, this is a big step forward for mankind's exploration of the deep sea, but maybe we need to show it to the station manager first."

Link didn't care about such trivial matters, and he and Shendai had already arrived in front of the stone tablet erected in the notice stone chamber.

The text on it was a dot matrix similar to Braille, which was enough for the two to understand.

"This is the 'Hall of Words', where all the texts are listed."

Xiaoyao noticed that the words on these stone tablets corresponded to the number of unknown totems in the Hoenn region, and suspected that she could translate them into an understandable language.

But she soon realized that it would be meaningless even if she translated it, because the grammar and vocabulary of the ancient language translated from the dot matrix language were different from those of the modern language, and there was no way to easily match them one by one.

"It's okay, I understand it all."

After confirming all the stone tablets, Link walked straight to the end of the room.

"So fast!?" Kamishiro said in surprise. He was still comparing!
"It's very simple. The human writing in various regions of this world is derived from the local unknown totems, while the syllables and words are derived from the elves and their calls. This phenomenon is even more obvious in ancient writing."

For this world, whether in ancient times or modern times, the word that represents the meaning of "seed" is "Dane", which is taken from the call of Bulbasaur.

In other words, as long as one has a deep enough understanding of elves and has identified the calls of various elves in the illustrations, one will be able to interpret the meaning of this dot matrix text without going through the grammar and meaning of the corresponding text.

Of course, this is just a theory that Kamishiro also knows, and the fact that Link is so fast is actually due to the translation function provided by the simulator.

"Is it that young people have more flexible minds? Or do I not know enough about elves?" Shen Dai, who also knew the principle, couldn't help scratching his head. Why couldn't he understand it immediately?

Xiaoyou at the side suddenly had an idea and said thoughtfully: "If it is because he can communicate with the elves, so he learned the ancient characters from the elves who lived in ancient times, this makes much more sense."

Fire Fox can communicate with people through superpowers, while Uruk-O comes from ancient times, so Link can definitely learn the ancient language.

In fact, there is no need for modern people to worry about these ancient texts, right?
"It does make sense, but I was obviously already proficient in translation before I went to Kitakami Township, and Erguiro is also an elf from a foreign country."

Xiaoyou's idea reminded Link that he should go to the elves in the Treasure Hall at night to ask who among them knows ancient characters, and take some time to summarize them and read a dictionary.

After a while, people came to the depths of the Hall of Speech.

Some dotted text came into view.

"Dig a hole here." Kamiya translated unexpectedly quickly this time.

"That being said, do we really have to dig it?"

Link thought for a moment and sent out Dragonite, who was slacking off in the Poké Ball. The latter fired a "Destruction Beam" that pierced through the wall at the end, and then used "Clear Fog" to disperse the smoke.

When the smoke and dust cleared, a deep cave was revealed where the wall had been, and no one knew where it led to.

"Don't bomb directly!" This stunned Kamishiro who was about to send Gengar to investigate through the wall. "Who did you learn this from?"

Link thought for a moment and mentioned a familiar name: "Alliance Investigator, A'du."

Hearing this, the handsome guy's face suddenly turned pale: "Don't learn from him!"

Dodo's style also seems to be well-known among international police.

Then everyone went deeper into the cave and came to the "Key Hall" at the back.

There are six stone walls in the cave. The front side records the reasons and consequences of the ancient Hoenn people living here, while the back side depicts scenes of their daily life and maps of six locations.

There is a huge stone carving emitting a faint light on the wall at the end, which seems to be the true form of the "seal" in the stone chamber.

Link browsed through all the stone walls one by one and roughly understood the past of the ancient Hoenn people who lived here.

"In the past, the ancient people of Hoenn, who were displaced by the conflict between land and sea, survived for a long time in this cave with the help of the power of the spirits, but in the end they sealed them away because they were afraid of the power of those spirits."

At this point, Xiaoyou suddenly felt puzzled: "Is the translation correct? They sealed away the powerful spirits because they were afraid of them. How did the ancient people of Hoenn do it?"

Xiaoyao also has similar questions.

It sounds like... the ancient people of Hoenn are... even more powerful than those elves with terrifying powers.

"Maybe there are trainers as outstanding as you among them?" Mary thought that it was not necessary for humans to seal Pokémons, Pokémons could do it too.

"Who knows." Link spread his hands and said, "Perhaps ancient humans were much stronger than modern humans."

Ignoring everyone's doubts, he quickly translated the last part -

Brave people, people who are hopeful about the future.

Open the door, the Eternal Pokémon is inside.

It started with the ancient coelacanth and ended with the king whale.

Everything will finally open up.

The correct method to remove the seal is known to everyone.

It turns out that the ancient coelacanth is not only a living map to get here, but also the key to lifting the seal.

So Xiaoyou and Xiaoyao released the king whale and ancient coelacanth respectively.

At the moment when the two elves appeared in the correct position in the notice stone chamber, the seal at the end emitted an even more dazzling light.

At the same time, all the seals set by ancient humans in various places in the Hoenn region were lifted.

The shaking, like an underwater volcanic eruption, caused everyone in the stone chamber to stagger, and strange cries began to echo in the cave.

An ominous premonition suddenly came to everyone's mind.

Dai, who had been holding the camera and remained silent throughout the entire process, suddenly realized the seriousness of the problem: "If all the seals are lifted, what will happen to this notice stone chamber?"
