Pokémon: Legendary Pokémon Simulator, Starting with Arceus

Chapter 172 A Hero's Dream

Inside the World Tree, the pink-haired fox, Dream, is resting peacefully. As an entity bound to the World Tree, it cannot leave it for too long.

Furthermore, leaving the World Tree would reduce the home advantage and lead to a decline in strength, so Mew rarely goes out, and when it does, it returns quickly.

Of course, the dreams of different worlds are different, and some people like to run around everywhere.

"Wow~" The cute pink fox stretched its body and woke up from its dream.

Today is another lovely and happy day for Mew. Oh, look, Mew is freely traveling through the World Tree, tasting the native fruits.

He greeted everyone living here, and soon he was carrying a lot of tree fruits in his arms. What should he do now?

Dream tilted its head in thought, then suddenly had an idea and plunged into the World Tree, passing through a passage to reach the top.

I found a tree branch, lay down on it, and felt the warm sun on my face.

"Wonderful~"

Dream was happily eating when the berry suddenly slipped from its hand. Before it could react, it looked at its little paws and tried to fly down to pick it up.

"Thump. :::"

The surrounding crystals first turned red, then gradually turned grayish-black...

Starting from the top, an ominous color began to spread: [The World Tree is dying; the world is about to collapse. Host, please leave as soon as possible!]

A system alarm suddenly sounded in Xiong Meng's ear, and he jumped up, staring intently at the World Tree.

The top of the World Tree in my field of vision is no longer emerald green, but has become an incongruous color, like spots, and is slowly spreading.

You can sense an unpleasant atmosphere here, and your heart is constantly sounding alarms.

"System, what exactly is going on? Explain yourself!"

It's normal for the world to perish. The World Tree is the foundation of the world at its beginning. After the World Tree disappears, the world will enter its countdown.

Speak like a human being!

The change in the timeline has caused a distortion in spacetime. To resolve the current situation, simply guide Aaron back to his original path.

"That shouldn't be the case. Why were there no problems in the previous simulations, but here they are?"

[The previous simulations were within acceptable limits, but the World Tree before us is the foundation of the world, and directly affects changes to the world, so it's easy for problems to arise, which is quite normal.]

Furthermore, no growth is ever smooth sailing. The World Tree, already at its limits, was further weakened by the host's alteration; it's normal that it couldn't withstand it.

Xiong Meng understood. It wasn't just a matter of change; the world itself had problems. Letting Yalang in might solve the problems, but it might not be able to completely solve them.

It only treats the symptoms, not the root cause; what's the point of this?

"Lord Xiongmeng!" Lucario suddenly pushed open the door and breathed a sigh of relief when he saw Xiongmeng there.

"Lord Xiong Meng, something terrible has happened! Ya Lang has fainted! He sent me to find you before he lost consciousness!"

"I understand, let's go."

The two ran quickly along the way. Lucario asked in a low voice, "Lord Xiongmeng, has something happened? I have a bad feeling."

"It's hard to say right now, let's see Aaron first."

Lucario didn't say anything, but silently sped up to catch up. "Lord Xiongmeng, you run really fast!"

In the palace room, Aaron lay on the bed with a pained expression, while Lynn held his hand tightly beside him.

"Lord Xiong Meng, please take a look! Ya Lang suddenly collapsed and has been like this ever since."

"Hmm, let me try to connect."

He walked to the bedside and unfolded his Super Spell. As he passed Lynn, he glanced at her stomach unexpectedly, shook his head, and focused his attention on Aaron.

The super-powered Pokémon easily connected, the Yggdrasil collapsed, the world was destroyed, and the future lost its Pokémon. A voice seemed to keep echoing in his ears, and the culprit was Aaron, who was lying trembling.

Xiong Meng saw everything from a distance, but instead of going up, he exited the state.

"It's nothing, just a nightmare. It seems to be something that comes with the Messenger of Waveguides, and it's not harmful to the body."

Lynn and the dog looked relaxed, as if nothing was wrong.

"I have some medicine here, just take it and that will do. Lucario, get some water."

"This is quite common in my hometown. Just take the medicine and rest well. I thought it had already passed, but it's only just arrived."

"Huh, is there such a saying?" Lynn wondered, as the nth generation of king, how come she had never seen it in ancient books.

"Because this is very common, it's just that having nightmares is very uncomfortable, and it doesn't last long."

"Everything is something a normal person has done. Who would record this and associate it with the Waveguide Messenger?"

Lucario quickly brought some water, and after Aaron took it, his expression indeed relaxed a lot. Xiong Meng then took out two small pills for Lucario.

"You should eat too. It's Aaron's first time here, so you probably haven't arrived yet. The feeling of discomfort you had earlier probably means it's coming soon. The timing of the Aura Messenger's companions is always around the same. If you eat and get a good night's sleep, this situation won't occur."

Lucario looked at the medicine with disgust, his face scrunched up, but in the end, out of trust, he swallowed it with a bitter expression.

Xiong Meng nodded as he watched the dog take the medicine, then looked at the only person who hadn't taken it.

"You don't need to eat anything. We don't have any other special needs for pregnant women. Just drink some water. Wait for me a moment."

Lynn quickly finished the water that was handed to her, and it was actually quite sweet.

"Alright, everyone go back to bed now. These are all sleep aids, so don't blame me if you get sleepy later."

"By the way, this might also temporarily impair your vision, because you might feel blurry."

After Xiong Meng finished speaking, he left the room. Just as the other party had said, drowsiness quickly overcame him, and Lynn and Lucario returned to their usual spots to rest.

Whether it was her imagination or not, Lynn seemed to see something incredible when her optic nerve passed through the window, as if she saw the World Tree starting to change color.

My vision is really starting to blur, I should go to sleep, it'll be fine once I fall asleep.

Walking down the street, no one knew about the changes to the World Tree yet, and the scene was still peaceful.

"System, is there any way to solve this? I'm right here, so don't say things like only Aaron can solve it. Tell me a solution that will solve the problem once and for all."

[All super counters, super counters personally bestowed by the gods, can solve the problem.]

"What would happen if I just left?"

There was no loss, just no points.

Will this world really disappear?

Yes, this is the world's catastrophe.

"Sigh, isn't this intentional? They deliberately presented this kind of multiple-choice question."

"System, tell me exactly how to solve this."

2

[Reach the center of the World Tree and channel the power of super-counterattacks into it.]

[Additionally, the host is not recognized by the World Tree, and will encounter attacks from guardians upon entering the territory.]

"So, I still have to get there." Xiong Meng looked at the bald World Tree, ignoring the system's reminder.

These three little divine pillars, watch me handle them!

"Polygon 2 has deployed all its drones; the target, World Tree, is now conducting full-scale reconnaissance!"

"w!!"

After a long period of time, the drones of Polygon 2 finally went into full operation, with a dense swarm of colorful drones heading towards the World Tree.

Xiong Meng sat cross-legged, letting the drone handle the journey; he could simply travel directly through the network later.

Hopefully, the drone could have internet access inside, otherwise it would be difficult to climb. While waiting, we asked Aaron to check if we could find a World Tree map at his home, but that failed.

A dozen minutes later, a drone flew over. According to the map, we had reached the outermost edge of the World Tree. Mini Porygon2 appeared to report the situation.

I can't go inside the World Tree; there are too many strange things there, and most importantly, the magnetic field inside is problematic, so I can't connect to the internet.

"Let's go here then. I'll take a drone and walk in from the inside, while the Polygon 2 will control it to fly upwards from the outside."

Xiong Meng began to deploy his plan, but someone arrived faster than him.

A sound suddenly came from the ground, and a figure emerged from the ground, immediately unleashing a Hyper Beam upon landing.

"Boom!"

Xiong Meng nimbly jumped aside, "Proceed according to plan!"

The Supercrystal was activated in an attempt to communicate, but it failed the first time.

It was unexpected, but if communication failed, then just take action!

Throw the Poké Ball, and Mudkip enters the battle! "Water Pulse!"

"Sell fruit!" The massive wall of water slammed Regirock against the wall.

"Full Power Freezing Fist - Freeze!"

"Bang!" Mudkip appeared behind the last water wall via a drone, slamming its fist down with a chilling aura.

Regirock was unable to dodge in time and was frozen inside the water wall. Xiongmeng recalled Mudkip and immediately ran inside.

After passing through the outermost area, we finally arrived at the foot of the World Tree. There should have been all kinds of Pokémon living here, but there was no trace of them at the moment.

In the theatrical version, the beautiful scenery is now replaced by gray and black, with black liquid swaying in the azure crystal, and an unsettling atmosphere spreading in the air.

"Are we at the foot of the mountain yet? We need to speed up."

As soon as he finished speaking, golden waves swept outwards, revealing his location but allowing him to quickly ascertain the surrounding situation.

Especially in places you've never been before, at least you'll know the way up and won't wander off aimlessly.

The destination is in the middle and above; just keep walking inwards.

After determining the path, Xiong Meng began to run wildly. After passing through layers of roads, he stopped and looked at the Steel God Pillar and Ice God Pillar blocking his way.

Communication with Super failed again. He took out the Key Stone Bracelet from the system inventory and opened the Poké Ball.

"Heracross! Mega Evolution!"

"A megaton-sized horn blast to clear the way!"

The light appeared in the passage and disappeared as Super Heracross arrived in front, its massive horns emitting an astonishing white light and imposing aura.

"Boom!"

Two figures were thrown backwards, the powerful impact smashing through the wall. Xiong Meng quickly recalled Heracross, which had deactivated its super evolution.

Under the perception of Chao Ke, he ran wildly inside. After running for a few more minutes, Xiong Meng couldn't remember. In the movie, there were many strange passages, but he didn't see any along the way.

As for the more special gem centers, they showed no reaction whatsoever in the super-grade, which is a difficult situation to handle.

There are two possibilities for the lack of perception: either the center is outside the super-crystal's perception range, which would mean the World Tree is incredibly large.

Without a map, you can only search blindly.

But with the crystal already disappearing, time is running out.

There's also the worst-case scenario: the World Tree Center has been damaged, which would truly be the end of it.

My mind raced, but my feet didn't stop. The fact that the system hadn't issued a final warning meant there was still hope. I just had to run upwards and inwards!

Along the way, Xiong Meng also observed other situations, such as the fact that the drone network was unusable in the passageway, but could be used with difficulty in the open air.

Furthermore, the original orange-level epidemic prevention mechanism was also missing; I didn't see a single one at the entrance.

Xiong Meng kept running upwards, when suddenly he sensed something different at the very top, as if something was lying on the ground.

I can breathe, and it feels the same as, yet different from, the World Tree. I'm currently at the top of the tree, and my expression and condition are not good. The identity of the other person pops into my mind.

dream!

"You've come at the perfect time."

"boom!"

Before he could finish speaking, a destructive beam struck him—it was the three Divine Pillars!

Heracross and Mudkip emerged from their Poké Balls. Heracross immediately Mega Evolved, while Mudkip prepared to assist.

"Chihera~"

Trainer, get to work. Sometimes you don't need to worry about us too much. Pokémon aren't that fragile, and we don't want to live under your protection all the time.

The two little ones raised their thumbs up and blocked their way, their thoughts being transmitted through Super.

Although it's so cool, this isn't my hometown, and I don't have the chance to be resurrected!

But looking at the back of the child in front of you, acknowledging the child's efforts and decisions is also something parents should do.

"Cooperate well, shift the battlefield outside, and be prepared to leave at any time via drones... Also, don't be reckless."

"Chihera!"

"Fruit for sale!"

After Xiongmeng left, Mega Heracross looked at the three legendary pillars, grabbed Mudkip, and headed outside. Mudkip used its water guns to attract attention.

The three divine pillars, who had already lost their minds, were successfully attracted and chased after the passage.

In an open area, the two Pokémon didn't hold back. Mudkip launched a high-intensity water cannon attack, while Mega Heracross charged forward with red eyes.

"Boom!"

Hearing the loud noise behind him, Xiong Meng increased his speed and moved closer to the dreamlike vision he had sensed.

Relying on his skills, he reached the top floor and immediately saw a pink figure lying on the ground. "Wake up! Dream!"

dream."

"Wow~" Dream opened her eyes slightly, her face looking terribly pale.

"Take me to the World Tree Center quickly, I'll deal with this situation."

1

"Wow~" Dreamy floated up and wobbled, and Xiong Meng caught it in his arms.

"Just point out the direction, and leave the rest to me."

The dream was already unconscious; it couldn't even open its eyes and could only point to the location from memory.

They didn't even know who this person was, or if this aura was sent by a powerful being.

But who is this person...?

Guided by the dream, Xiongmeng quickly followed the path and successfully found the center of the World Tree, carefully placing the dream aside.

Seeing that the center was still red, I thought, "It seems you don't want to disappear either, so I'll lend you a hand."

[Host, a reminder: given the size of the World Tree, it requires all super-counters, and you have a habit of strengthening yourself.]

Upon receiving the sudden notification yesterday, Xiong Meng lowered his head in thought, then took out his drone, turned on recording mode, and placed it in a suitable spot nearby.

After preparing everything, he returned to his original position, his expression serious and dignified, but his eyes filled with excitement and anticipation.

Three scenes that often appear in fantasy—protecting a good friend, sacrificing oneself to save the world, and contributing one's most important things in a magnificent way—are happening right before our eyes today!
