Pokémon: The Sims.

Chapter 470 The Underground Primitive World
"Boss Monet, something's happened!"

Upon entering the monitoring station, Carbon Stone immediately spotted a woman with green hair.

"What kind of behavior is this, making such a racket?"

A woman who had been sitting cross-legged in the corner got up.

Although she was called "Big Sister," a title that sounded like that of a delinquent girl.

But in reality, Monet gave people the impression of being very virtuous and quiet.

"A lot of Kabutops and Kabutops have come out of the forest mine. I've never seen those Pokémon there before!"

"Just because you haven't seen it doesn't mean it doesn't exist. The forest mine has already been explored to a depth of over 1,700 meters, and that's not even the core area yet. Those Kabutops must have come from the core area, which is the territory of the ancient Pokémon."

Monet shrugged and pointed to the many maps hanging on the wall.

Those maps are detailed maps of all the natural environments around the ancient town, so detailed that even the location of the ore in each mine and the Pokémon territory are clearly marked.

Wu Ge and Cynthia walked to the wall.

A map of the forest mine has been found.

The area within 300 meters underground is considered the outer perimeter, and no Pokémon occupy this area.

Or.

Monet's Garchomp is the king of this 300-meter range.

The area from 300 meters down to 1300 meters is the middle perimeter zone.

Four of the seven paths are dead ends, each occupied by one of the four Pokémon species.

The other three paths are in free areas, where no Pokémon species reside. Miners use these three paths to travel to deeper areas.

The path leading further down is still under exploration and has been temporarily marked as the inner perimeter.

Start here.

Occasionally, some ancient Pokémon will appear.

"Based on our speculation, there is a subterranean world at the deepest part of the forest mine, where the environment is very similar to that of tens of millions of years ago, allowing some ancient Pokémon to live there."

Monet pinched his chin, his eyes sparkling.

Her eyes were full of interest as she looked at the map, suggesting she was a person with a strong desire to explore.

This job really suited her interests.

"They've survived for tens of millions of years without human intervention?!"

Cynthia was deeply shocked.

"Yes, actually there are more Pokémon that have lived for tens of millions of years than most people imagine. They are mostly distributed underground, in the deep sea, in tundra, and in volcanoes."

Monet smiled and nodded, then his brow furrowed slightly.
"The surface climate is too hot for them; they wouldn't have come out from underground unless something major happened."

As soon as she finished speaking...

Many people in the monitoring station stood up.

"You should go back first. The area will be sealed off for the next few days as we conduct an investigation."

Monet waved to Carbonite and the others.

"Oh."

Carbonstone nodded and prepared to leave with the Shielded Dragon.

However, he saw that Cynthia and Wu Ge had stayed behind.

"you?"

"We want to go together too."

Cynthia spoke up.

If everyone goes together, and someone familiar with the route leads the way, there will be no danger.

We should not explore now.

When will you stay?

"No, it's too dangerous there."

Monet refused without even thinking about it.

“We were invited by Dr. Blatano to investigate the energy source. Even without you, we would have gone in anyway. Now that we're together, we'll be safer.”

Wu Ge took the detector out of Cynthia's backpack.

“You can confirm this with Dr. Blatano.”

"No need, I remember now, you are Cynthia."

Monet stared at Cynthia and suddenly shook his head.

It was only then that she remembered.

This blonde girl is a star trainer who has won many regional tournaments at a young age.

"Yes! I am Cynthia from the Sinnoh region. I have come to the Kalos region to participate in the Pokémon League's Star Trainer Tournament."

"In that case, I am confident in your capabilities. You can work together. If you need any help, please let me know."

Monet agreed to take them along this time.

"Uh"

Carbonstone and Shieldon were both dumbfounded.

They don't usually watch regional competitions.

So I don't know Cynthia or Wu Ge at all.

"You are not allowed to go."

Monet glanced at them.

Everyone got ready and set off again.

The monitoring station dispatched five patrolmen.

With their guidance, we moved through the mine with ease, and within an hour we reached a depth of 1700 meters, which was the end of the previous monitoring station's exploration.

This place should be pitch black, so dark you can't see your hand in front of your face.

The amazing thing is that there is light here.

Although very faint.

But from deeper inside, light did indeed come through.

This is also why the surveillance system believes there is an underground world inside.

"Be careful from here, there might be some..."

Rumble!
Monet had barely finished speaking.

The tunnel was shaking as if an earthquake was occurring.

Countless pebbles fell from above.

Before anyone could react, a group of Aggrons appeared from the front.

"Get out of the way!"

Monet called out softly.

The group of people all squatted down on both sides of the road, pressing themselves against the wall.

The Bossdoras saw them.

However, unlike the Scythe-Helmet tribe, they didn't have the inclination to hunt; instead, they rushed outwards without hesitation.

"what happened?"

Monet was completely dumbfounded as she watched the Bosscodoras quickly depart.

The Bosscodora are a race with fierce temperaments.

To put it more bluntly.

He's a stubborn kid.

Even if their land becomes barren, they don't think about migrating; instead, they think about transporting soil, planting trees, and rebuilding their homes. This is what would make them leave their own land.

Something extraordinary must have happened underground.

"You'll know once you go down and see for yourself."

Wu Ge raised his eyes and twitched his ears.

A breeze came from deeper within.

The sounds carried by the wind were somewhat noisy.

"Walk."

The group quickened their pace.

We didn't even have time to explore the distribution of stones in the passage along the way.

After all, there are priorities and urgency in everything.

The top priority right now is, of course, to find out the reason for the large-scale migration of Pokémon underground.

But this time.

Before they had run a few hundred meters, they suddenly stopped about two thousand meters underground.

What stood before them now was...

It is an underground river that leads to an unknown destination.

The lake water reflects light from who-knows-where, illuminating the area so brightly that it's impossible to tell where the light is coming from.

"Left, or right?"

Cynthia looked at the river.

I'm starting to hesitate again.

"Wait a minute, let's check the machine."

Wu Ge raised an eyebrow and took out the detector that Blatano had given them.

"Left."

The river flows from the right side of the river channel.

The left side is the lower river channel, the direction the river flows.

Go to the left.

This means they will continue downwards.

"The footprints came from the left, so the underworld should also be on the left."

Monet and the others reached into the riverbed and felt around.

They traced the direction of the Bosscodora's footprints.

"Go to the left."

Monet nodded.

Once you've determined your direction, keep moving forward.

As they travel downstream along the river, they can also spot some leisurely ancient coelacanths.

Although Relicanth is also a Pokémon that existed 100 million years ago, it is not a fossil resurrected Pokémon, but rather a Pokémon that has survived generation after generation.

and.

Even without actively trying to become stronger, Relicanthus can live as long as turtle-type, dragon-type, and psychic-type Pokémon, making them the only species in the category of "long-lived Pokémon".

“Coelacanths generally live in the deep sea, so their presence here indicates that this underground water vein is connected to the deep sea.”

Monet took out his camera and started taking pictures of the ancient coelacanth.

New Pokémon species have appeared in the forest caves.

This is quite a discovery.

Once this message is brought back, some scholars or PhDs from the alliance will surely come to study and explore it.

"The ancient coelacanth looks like an old man taking a walk."

Cynthia glanced at it twice, then reached out and touched an ancient coelacanth at her feet.

"Their scales are like rocks."

These creatures didn't react at all when touched by humans.

"They're completely unaffected, aren't they? Do they even have any fighting ability left?"

Wu Ge bent down and picked one up.

It felt like I was lifting a huge rock.

The Relicanus, held in the arms, remained motionless and blew bubbles, showing no affection whatsoever towards Wu Ge, unlike typical Water-type Pokémon.

What amazing creatures.

They tossed aside the ancient coelacanth in their hands and continued on their way.

Follow the river downstream.

The altitude dropped by more than 300 meters.

At this moment.

They are already more than two thousand meters underground.

However, there was no difficulty breathing or discomfort.

Call ~
The sound of a gentle breeze blowing in could be heard.

"We're almost at the exit."

Wu Ge's ears twitched, and he looked up ahead.

They saw the sunlight at the end of the river!
"How is this possible?! There's sunlight underground like this!"

Cynthia's eyes widened in surprise.

Even Wu Ge is the same.

Having lived for over a hundred years, this was also the first time he had ever seen such a scene.

Cynthia eagerly pulled Wu Ge towards the light, and Monet and the others followed.

The exit at the end of the river channel.

It seems to be on the summit of a high mountain.

The river water cascades down the high mountain slopes like a silver river, forming a slender waterfall.

Walk out of the river.

Standing atop a high mountain, gazing into the distance.

The scene that appeared before their eyes shocked everyone!
They unexpectedly arrived at a primeval forest that looked like a fairyland.

If I hadn't come here in person...

Who would have thought that there is such a small world more than two thousand meters underground?

Looking up, all I saw was gray and white.

Presumably, the rock layer served as the 'sky'.

After much searching.

However, the object emitting the light could not be found.

"What is that? It's glowing?"

Wu Ge raised his hand and pointed.

In the very center of this underground world, there is a green root that pierces through the 'sky' and plunges straight into the 'earth'.

It's the root that's glowing.
