Elf: Starts with small diamonds, then mutates into Diancie.

Tianxi was unaware of Li Xiao's thoughts, nor would it care.

Diancie slowly opened her clasped hands, revealing a more skillful and efficient use of the Diamond Storm technique inherited from the Sacred Diamonds. Carbon elements were compressed between Diancie's palms, and with the convergence of Rock-type and some Fairy-type energies, they began to form countless diamonds.

With the infusion of radiant power, Diancie now shone brightly, as if...

The bright, full moon, dazzling in its brilliance, is the focus of attention simply by being there. Its noble and sacred aura is like that of an incomparably holy maiden, inspiring no thought of desecration.

Although everything resembled a glamorous scene from a movie, the Haxorus, regaining its senses, felt an unprecedented sense of crisis from Diancie and the countless diamonds surrounding it.

Even that woman's Fairy-type Pokémon never gave Haxorus a sense of crisis.

"Go."

Diancie gave a gentle push forward, and the pink diamond storm, shimmering with dazzling golden light, intertwined and transformed into a terrifying diamond storm, sweeping towards the Double-Haxe Dragon with overwhelming power.

In an instant, the Double-Haxed Dragon was filled with dread and unleashed its most powerful and effective attack, intending to use all its strength to resist the diamond storm that brought it an unprecedented sense of crisis.

But the two-axeed war dragon soon realized it was wrong, terribly wrong.

In the instant of the clash, the Haxorus's offensive defense collapsed instantly, and the dazzling diamond storm completely engulfed it. Endless light shone from within the diamond storm, and a loud bang shook almost half of the Viridian Forest.

boom! ! ! !

The earth trembled violently, and birds and beasts panicked. This effect spread to most of Viridian Forest, causing many trainers and explorers adventuring within the forest to look up in terror at the sky, wondering what had happened.

A little further away, Liao Xingchen had just exchanged a few blows with the three-headed dragon guarding the territory. Before he could even exert his full strength, he noticed that the three-headed dragon was flying at high speed toward the explosion site, as if it were worried about something.

He looked as anxious as if his wife had run off with another man.

Liao Xingchen smacked her lips, looking quite puzzled.

.....................

"Can you still get up?"

"Ouch, my butt hurts!"

"What happened? I think I've temporarily lost my hearing..."

The incoming freshmen were thrown to the ground like turtles, wincing in pain. They had been overturned by the wind pressure from that instantaneous burst of energy. If Li Xiao hadn't blocked some of the wind pressure in front of them, the aftershocks would have seriously injured them.

A soon-to-be freshman, who had just stood up, stared at the center of the explosion as the smoke gradually dissipated, muttering, "Holy crap..."

The once invincible and domineering Double-Haxorus was now lying in the giant pit, covered in wounds, like a rag doll.

Senior Li Xiao said it's a Champion-level Pokémon, right?

Does that mean Senior Su Hao's Diancie... instantly killed a Champion-level Dragon-type Pokémon?!

This discovery deeply shocked them.

In the giant pit, the Double-Haxorus's gaze was no longer arrogant as before. It looked at Diancie in terror, as if it were looking at a deadly messenger, fearing that Diancie would finish it off with another blow.

The Twin-Axe Dragon couldn't help but beg for mercy from Diancie and Su Hao.

[Hey, is it possible to reconcile?]

Su Hao's face twitched. This pair of axe-wielding dragons...

It's no wonder he's the companion of the three-headed dragon; birds of a feather flock together.

Diancie wasn't that cruel; she just glanced at the Twin Axe Dragon with a sigh, her mind filled with countless thoughts.

It remembered that Haxorus was probably that Hydreigon's... mate, right?

Last year, when it had just transformed into Diancie, it had barely broken through to the professional level and was actually extremely powerless against that Elite Three-Headed Dragon.

It was only by chance that they stumbled upon the Hydreigon in a severely injured state, and they cleverly used Diamond Storm to strike the Hydreigon's wounds to achieve victory.

Now it can easily defeat a Haxorus, whose strength is similar to that of the Hydreigon. What a change...

Li Xiao and the others wanted to go forward to congratulate him, but a dragon's roar once again echoed through the forest. Hearing this roar, which was almost etched into his DNA, Li Xiao panicked again.

Looking up at the sky, a black figure flew rapidly towards them. The figure had three ferocious heads and looked extremely menacing.

No way, this time it's that three-headed dragon that chased him for a whole day?

Li Xiao's p

tSd has made a mistake again.

The others weren't so afraid anymore. After all, Su Hao and Diancie could kill Haxorus in an instant, so what was there to fear about another Hydreigon?

When the three-headed dragon, sensing something was wrong, escaped the troublesome human and arrived, it found its own little darling lying in the pit.

Anger flared instantly, and the three-headed dragon glared fiercely at the instigator of it all.

But when it saw Diancie, radiating a mysterious glow, and Su Hao, who was smiling and greeting it, the three-headed dragon's anger vanished instantly, replaced by extreme fawning.

Oh my, isn't this the old man who helped him repair the orchard?

Well done!

Who told the Haxorus to be so blind and attack people so casually? It deserved it!

......................................

The vast orchard is filled with the rich aroma of ripe fruit. Looking around, you can see not only common oranges and pomelos, but also many rare fruits such as sand berries and dragon fruit.

The small, grass-type Pokémon that shouldn't be in the depths of Viridian Forest were working diligently under the fruit trees, their faces beaming with the joy of a bountiful harvest.

"Uh... are you sure it's okay?"

By the lake, Li Xiao withdrew his gaze from the soon-to-be freshmen who were looking around like curious children, and turned his attention to the three-headed dragon that was obediently floating beside Su Hao without any fierceness. The shock that had not yet dissipated was still between his brows.

The three-headed dragon that had chased them all day was showing such a different side when it was with Su Hao; it was simply outrageous.

Su Hao nodded: "It's alright, it's just collecting some sand scale fruits, the three-headed dragon won't care, right?"

The Hydreigon, which was mentioned, nodded quickly like a chicken pecking at rice. Putting aside the fact that the orchard was revived by Su Hao, just looking at Diancie, who could overpower its young hound in less than a year, and Articuno, which, although it didn't appear, was definitely in the Poké Ball that Su Hao always carried, how could the Hydreigon dare to say a word against it?

It doesn't want to be frozen into an ice sculpture.

A little while later, Lin Ke, laden with fruit, brought Xu Sheng and the others over, excitedly saying, "We've got enough Sand Scale Fruit! Our mission is complete!"

As soon as he finished speaking, the incoming freshmen who were helping him raised their hands and cheered.

Completing this task will earn them a valuable number of academic credits when school starts, putting them several steps ahead of other students!

And... all of this is thanks to Su Hao. So this is what it feels like to win without lifting a finger?

It’s so cool!

The incoming freshmen looked at Su Hao as if he were their god, showering him with compliments until he was almost embarrassed.

"It's nothing, we're all alumni of the same school, just a small favor." Su Hao, who was quite pleased with the compliment, smiled and then looked at Li Xiao, who was clearly the decision-maker: "School should be starting soon, right? How do you plan to leave here?"

This question is now being asked of Li Xiao: Where are they now?

Deep within Viridian Forest, while professional-level and gym-level wild Pokémon may not be everywhere, the probability of encountering them is definitely very high.

Not to mention the possibility of encountering Elite Four level Pokémon, their team couldn't possibly make it out on their own.

The three-headed dragon was very clever. It seemed to have seen Li Xiao's predicament and very cleverly summoned its young master with a dragon's roar.

The three-headed dragon said that it still had to take care of the orchard and the unborn dragon egg, so it was impossible for Su Hao to make another trip. Therefore, it would be better to send the two-axe dragon to deliver the group of people.

The two-axe dragon, now a father, is completely obedient to the three-headed dragon, patting its solid chest to declare that this job is perfect for it.

Before leaving, Li Xiao stopped and looked at Su Hao, exclaiming, "You've become so much stronger, to a point where I can't even begin to compare. It seems I'll be able to see you at the Heavenly King Challenge soon."

Li Xiao was well aware of just how terrifying Diancie's combat power had been. Even some of his father's Elite Four-level Pokémon couldn't guarantee a one-hit kill against a Elite Four-level Haxorus. After all, this Haxorus was one of the dominant species in the depths of Viridian Forest.

Their combat power is not much worse than Pokémon with trainers.

Even considering type advantages, Diancie's strength is probably no less than that of a veteran Elite Four level trainer.

Although he was very unwilling, Li Xiao knew that the gap between Su Hao and himself was widening.

Su Hao smiled and did not deny it: "I will."

As if he had made peace with himself, Li Xiao smiled with relief: "In short, thanks to you, we were able to successfully harvest high-quality sand fin fruits recently, given that crops on the outskirts of the Evergreen Forest have been dying for no apparent reason. Thank you!"

After saying that, Li Xiao waved to Su Hao and sped up to catch up with the classmates who were walking towards the edge of the forest accompanied by the Double-Axe Dragon.

Su Hao's pupils constricted slightly at Li Xiao's final words.

What did he hear?

Crops on the outskirts of the forest often wither and die for unknown reasons?

Su Hao didn't stop Li Xiao, because Li Xiao probably didn't know the reason.

But the information Li Xiao inadvertently revealed gave Su Hao a completely new direction.

Yes, if it's just a very small area, or even just the death of individual crops and plants, it's really nothing compared to the vast consciousness of Viridian Forest.

Chapter 748 Absol

Something strange must have happened in Viridian Forest.

Such a conjecture came to Su Hao's mind.

Rahiram, who had been keeping a close eye on the outside world, said, "We still don't have enough clues. We have to go and see for ourselves where the plants are withered. Otherwise, we'll just be wandering around like headless flies."
