Pokémon: I picked up a reborn Eevee at the start of the game.

Xerneas is even the first cover god to appear in the human eye in nearly a century.

To be honest, Xia Chen didn't know how much damage Y God's awakening could cause, but Xerneas's fairy aura when he awakened could affect Carlos's entire ecosystem and even create a new attribute.

As for God Y, who is on the same level as Him, he probably can't be too bad even if he's not great.

At the very least, its expressiveness is definitely no worse than that of animation.

"So that's how it is. What are you planning to do?"

Karuni's question brought Xia Chen out of his reverie.

He looked at Xanbu, who was communicating with Absol, and said in a deep voice, "Let's see how Xanbu and Absol communicate. If there is any definite information, I want to use my influence to speak out."

…………

Absol eventually left like the wind.

Although Xia Chen lied to her, saying that the humans had been notified and were preparing to evacuate, she gazed into the depths of the vast, enchanting forest.

Clearly, she still wanted to share this warning with more elves, even though she knew she was also in deep trouble, and even though very few creatures believed in her.

Xia Chen couldn't stop Absol. Forcibly defeating and subduing her would only make her hate him for the rest of her life, so he could only let her leave.

However, before leaving, Absol told Sinbu all the information he knew.

On the snow, Fairy Cloth drew a simple map with silk.

The three dots in the corner represent the three cities surrounding the Enchanted Forest: Baike City, Yingxue City, and Lianli Town.

Between the three points, the rising shape represents Mount Kawa Snow Mountain, while the oval shape represents the Enchanted Forest.

Xianbu drew a circle at the junction of Kawa Snow Mountain and the Enchanted Forest.

"Is this the sleeping place of the Cocoon of Destruction? Is this the only place we can be sure of?" Xia Chen asked, frowning.

Proportionally speaking, such a large circle would cover an area of ​​nearly a thousand square kilometers, yet its exact location still cannot be determined.

Sinbu shook his head, indicating that Absol didn't know the more precise location either.

Then, she used a piece of silk to draw an arrow between the circle and the dot representing Yingxue City.

Chapter 160 Warning? Rumor?

Karuni asked solemnly, "You mean, this is Yveltal's route after he awoke?"

If we can determine the general direction of the impact, things will be much easier to handle.

Xianbu nodded in agreement.

Although this information was not revealed by Absol, it was something she learned based on her memories from her past life.

But at times like this, it doesn't matter if we blame it on Absol, since she's no longer here.

Xia Chen stroked his chin and pressed on, "Then when will Yveltal awaken? Can you confirm that?"

Xianbu drew a line.

Xia Chen guessed, "One day later?"

“Buyi.” Xianbu shook his head and tapped below the line.

Xia Chen's heart tightened. "Within a day?"

Xianbu nodded slowly.

"This is difficult," Xia Chen muttered to himself.

Five minutes later is also within a day, and twenty-three hours later is also within a day. This time and location range is still too vague.

More importantly, this timeframe is too short!

However, Xia Chen also knew that this was all the information available at the moment.

Karini patted Xia Chen on the shoulder, comforting him, "Don't worry too much, I'll talk to Mr. Defu, the gym leader of Yingxue Gym. The most important thing right now is to catch two Flying-type Pokémon that can take us out of the Enchanted Forest!"

Xia Chen nodded. Time was of the essence, and he couldn't afford to think of any more comprehensive ideas.

He continued, "In that case, Miss Karuni, you should send your Pokémon out to search for suitable Flying-type Pokémon, and spread the word to any Pokémon you encounter along the way."

Karuni asked, "And what about you?"

Xia Chen waved his phone: "I'm going to spread this news online."

Karuni hesitated for a moment before saying, "Do you have enough influence? Do you need my help?"

Xia Chen looked at her in surprise.

Although Karuni is not yet the champion of the Carlos region, her influence is already several levels higher than mine just because of her status as a star, not to mention in the Carlos region.

But this kind of news is simply appalling.

"Are you sure you want to spread rumors with me?" Xia Chen asked jokingly.

Karune was amused by his statement. "Didn't you believe in Sylveon and Ralts without reservation? Why do you say it's a rumor?"

Xia Chen shrugged and said, "Rationally speaking, without conclusive evidence, what I'm about to do is no different from spreading rumors. I'm willing to believe in my spirit, but I won't ask others to believe it too."

He suddenly sighed, "If this hadn't happened, I would definitely be disgraced."

"So, Miss Karuni, are you sure you want to take this risk with me?"

Meeting Xia Chen's gaze, Karuni smiled and nodded, "Anyway, I had already decided to retire from acting, so spreading a rumor of this magnitude is just a good excuse for me to take responsibility."

Xia Chen smiled and shook his head. "Then thank you for trusting my elf's judgment. I'll post it first, and you can just forward it and be a rumor-monger."

The two looked at each other and smiled.

…………

April 18, 2023, is a day that future generations will remember.

Because that day was the day Yveltal awoke.

From this point on, humanity will begin to frequently encounter various legendary spirit events.

This day also marks the origin of Xia Chen's many titles, including "The Great Prophet".

That morning, Xia Chen posted a warning message on various social media platforms.

[This is no joke! According to Absol and other sources, the "Cocoon of Destruction" will awaken in the Enchanted Forest of the Carlos region within a day. All those exploring the Enchanted Forest and Mount Kawa, as well as the citizens of Snowdrift City, are urged to flee!]

…………

It takes immense courage to say something like "I am the only one who is sober while everyone else is drunk," especially to utter such a shocking statement in public.

Xia Chen could already imagine the storm of public opinion that his post would cause online.

So he wisely chose to stop paying attention to everything outside after posting the update.

It's not just about burying your head in the sand; it's because there are more important things to do now.

As Xia Chen had predicted, his post immediately caused a huge uproar.

As a content creator with six million followers on Pixiv, Xia Chen has considerable influence.

Not to mention that he has risen to fame in recent months with two extremely important academic discoveries, and his recent statements are almost all those of a serious and brilliant researcher.

Even so, Xia Chen's warning post at 9 a.m. was initially taken as a joke by many people.

"Today isn't April 18th, nor is it April Fool's Day."

"Is Pigeon Master trying to switch to being a comedy content creator? But please don't make jokes like this."

"My assessment is that if there's nothing else to do, you can bite a lighter."

"Is Master Pigeon ignorant of the law? Delete it quickly, this kind of joke can be called spreading rumors."

Similar comments kept appearing under Xia Chen's post, and few people took this shocking news seriously.

When Xia Chen neither deleted the post nor responded an hour later, onlookers gradually realized that something was wrong.

Xia Chen didn't seem to be joking.

Once this was realized, the topic of "[Xia Chen's warning]" was instantly pushed to the forefront.

Because whether this prediction is right or wrong, it will not be a trivial matter.

If the prediction is true and Yveltal has indeed awakened, the consequences are self-evident.

The prediction turned out to be false, and the fact that a well-known public figure spread such a malicious rumor is just as entertaining for bored onlookers.

However, judging from the current public opinion, almost 90% of people believe it is the latter.

Not only because the authorities have not issued a warning yet, but also because Xia Chen's reasons are not very convincing.

What kind of reason is Absol's early warning and other special related channels?

The former is understandable, but what does the latter refer to? Did Yveltal tell you this in a dream?

It can't be that if Xerneas awakens, its nemesis must also awaken, right?

Not to mention that Xerneas has been awake for almost two years, while Yveltal has only just awakened?

Why can it sleep more?

…………

The skeptics' logic is sound and their reasons are detailed.

Of the remaining 10%, 90% are neutral observers who are waiting for more evidence.

The only reason these neutrals remained neutral was because they knew Xia Chen well and were aware of his reliable character, which he had never fabricated.

As for that final one percent who choose to believe...

Either they're not in the Carlos region, or they have a mild antisocial personality with a mindset of "I'm bored, I want to see bloodshed!"

Or they are pessimists with the legendary "worrying about the sky falling" personality, who are overly cautious.

Or perhaps he's one of Xia Chen's few die-hard fans who believes everything he says.

To sum it up, there isn't a single normal person among them.

With such a stark disparity in numbers, the supporters are utterly powerless against the skeptics.

Immediately, the internet was filled with condemnation of Xia Chen's irresponsible remarks, with some even calling him a clown trying to attract attention.
