Chapter 262 Despicable Humans!!!

After Ya Xuan disappeared from their sight, An Jie also bid farewell to Ms. Ge Jihua. He planned to set off for the End Cave immediately (the previous text was incorrect; it should have been written as Shining Cave, which has been corrected).

Ms. Ge Jihua said, "Go ahead, you're welcome to visit again anytime."

Anjie smiled and said, "I'll definitely come again when I have time."

As she spoke, Anjie took out another box from her backpack and handed it to Ms. Ge Jihua, saying, "This is for you."

The box was exactly the same as the one Anjie had given Yaxuan before, so Ms. Gejihua immediately understood what was inside.

"I won't stand on ceremony!" Ms. Ge Jihua generously accepted the box from An Jie's hands.

Anjie gave Yaxuan red wine, while she gave Ms. Gejihua fruit wine.

After saying goodbye to Ms. Gejihua, Angel rode Latios toward the Cave of the End.

As for the Libra doll, it was left by Anjie to cultivate under Ms. Gejihua's care.

The End Cave is very close to Baike City. At Latios' speed, Ange arrived at his destination in less than half an hour.

After getting off Latios, Angel saw an abandoned mine.

That's right, the End Cave was originally a mine, which was later abandoned due to resource depletion.

Gradually, a large number of Pokémon gathered here, attracting many trainers to come and adventure.

Later, trainers who came to explore frequently reported that monsters were appearing in the area, and gradually, the End Cave became a deserted place.

Anja guessed that the monster the trainers were talking about was Zygarde.

Now that Zigeld has settled here, it naturally doesn't want anyone to keep wandering around and disturbing it.

Angie looked around and found that it was quiet and didn't look like a place where a large number of Pokémon lived.

"Let's go in!" Ange said to Latios.

"Woo~~" Latios nodded and followed Angel into the cave.

All the other Pokémon were put into Poké Balls by Angel before the trip, and only Latios was by his side at this moment.

After entering the cave, Anjie saw that the tracks that were originally built to transport minerals still remained, but most of the tracks had rotted away due to years of disrepair.

As he walked, Anjie suddenly heard the sound of rocks breaking and falling overhead. He looked up and saw several iron ants clinging to the cave ceiling, gnawing on the ore.

Seeing Anjie looking over, the iron ants were surprised. They quickly dropped the half-eaten ore and ran away as fast as they could, disappearing into the darkness in no time.

A stone fell down with a crash. Anjie walked over, picked it up, and was surprised to find that it was a hard stone.

Hard Rock is a held item that increases the power of Rock-type moves used by the holder by 20%.

"These iron ants have a really good diet!" Anjie couldn't help but exclaim. They actually eat hard rocks; no wonder they all look like little lambs and are shiny all over.

These hard rocks must have been formed after the mine was abandoned, otherwise the mine would not have been abandoned.

Several hard stones had been gnawed into pieces by the iron ants and were clearly unusable.

Anjie casually tossed the hard rock fragments onto the ground, then stood up and looked around.

Since the iron ants are feeding here, the hard rocks are most likely found here.

Sure enough, after searching around, Ange discovered something unusual in a corner of the cave, so he pointed it out to Latios and said:

"Latios, Dragon's Breath."

"Waaah~~"

Latios nodded, opened his mouth and spat out a green energy beam. With a roar, the rock in that corner was blasted open, revealing the hard stone hidden inside.

Anjie exclaimed in surprise, "So many?"

The walls were covered with hard stones.

Anjie wasn't greedy; he went over, broke off three or four pieces, and then left.

Since these hard rocks are food for iron ants, it would be very unfair of him to dig them all up.

No sooner had Anjie left than a dozen iron ants crawled out of the shadows again and continued to feast on the hard rock.

The deeper you go into the final cave, the dimmer the surrounding light becomes.

Suddenly, Latios burst forth with a bright light, illuminating the surroundings.

Ange patted its neck and said, "Latios, you've been a huge help!"

"Woo~~" Latios laughed and waved its paw at Angel, indicating that it was nothing.

Soon Anjie and his group reached a bend in the road. Just as they turned the corner, a dark shadow suddenly appeared out of nowhere and launched an attack on them.

"Ah~~~"

"Ah~~~"

……

A series of sharp hisses emanated from the group of dark figures, causing Ange and Latios to experience splitting headaches.

It's ultrasound!

Anjie looked closely and realized that the attackers were a swarm of buzzing bats.

Noibat, a sound wave Pokémon of the Flying and Dragon types, can control sound waves of all frequencies, and the ultrasonic waves it releases can cause dizziness.

Clearly, the buzzing bats were frightened by the intense light emitted by Latios.

Seeing the Buzzbats' agitation, Angel had no choice but to say to Latios, "Latios, use Psychic!"

As Ange finished speaking, a blue light flashed in Latios's eyes, and in an instant, the buzzing bats that had been flapping their wings and flying around were frozen in mid-air.

With a slight exertion, Latios sent the buzzing bats crashing to the ground like dumplings being dropped into a pot, and the noisy ultrasonic waves vanished instantly.

Finally, it's quiet! Anjie rubbed his still throbbing temples and breathed a sigh of relief.

Latios didn't hit hard, so the buzzers were just knocked unconscious and were not seriously injured.

After Anjie fed them some fruit juice and milk, they quickly woke up.

Anja apologized for startling the buzzing bats, and the buzzing bats also apologized for their panicked attack.

The reason they were making such a fuss was because a group of people had come here recently. They were doing something in the End Cave, making a lot of noise and occasionally creating bright lights.

The buzzing bats dislike bright light, and were thus greatly disturbed by it.

Upon hearing the Buzzbats' words, Ange's heart skipped a beat. Could those people all be from Team Flare?

So he asked, "Do you know where those people are now?"

The buzzing bats shook their heads; they hadn't heard any strange noises coming from the cave for some time, so perhaps they had already left.

The final cave is very large, with tunnels that lead in all directions. In addition to the tunnels left by the mine, there are also passages that the Pokémon dug out later.

The buzzing bats live only in fixed areas and therefore are unaware of the situation in other places.

"I see..." Angie was somewhat disappointed at not getting any useful information. "Then do you know anything about Zygarde's situation?"

The buzzing bats looked at each other in bewilderment upon hearing this.

Kirgerd? They don't know him.

It turns out that Zygarde used to live in the deepest part of the Cave of the End and rarely appeared in front of other Pokémon, so most of the Pokémon in the Cave of the End were unaware of Zygarde's existence.

"Alright, thank you!" Seeing that he couldn't get any more information, Anjie stopped wasting time. He took out some food and distributed it to the buzzing bats. "Here, this is for you!"

The buzzing bats happily accepted the food, then flapped their wings and disappeared into the darkness.

After bidding farewell to the buzzing bats, Ange continued his journey deeper into the final cavern.

Just as Anjie continued to advance deeper into the End Cave, a great battle was breaking out at the deepest part of the End Cave.

The two sides in the battle were a Salamence and several people wearing red uniforms.

If Ange were here now, he would definitely recognize that this Salamence is the same one that carried Z2 around back then.

"Roar~~"

Salamence was furious. It roared angrily at the people and Pokémon attacking it below, and then a surging pillar of fire burst from its mouth, turning the area below into a sea of ​​fire.

"Houndoom!"

At this moment, the leader shouted, and a Black Rhino jumped out. It opened its mouth and inhaled, swallowing all the flames.

After absorbing the flames, Houndoom was not only unharmed, but also emitted a bright red light.

Clearly, this Houndoom's ability is Flash Fire, so Fire-type moves can't damage it.

After the sea of ​​fire disappeared, two more Pokémon suddenly appeared out of nowhere, lunging at Salamence from the left and right.

Both of these are Fairy-type Pokémon that are super effective against Salamence.

A water-fairy Marill, and a normal-fairy Jigglypuff.

Marill uses the skill Playful, while Jigglypuff uses Magic Dazzle.

Of course, Salamence is not so easy to deal with.

It opened its blood-red maw and bit down hard with its lightning-fast teeth on the charging Mariluri.

Then, with a powerful flap of its blood wings, countless air blades shot out, instantly engulfing Jigglypuff.

Marill lost its ability to fight instantly after landing, while Wigglytuff, being of a higher level, managed to stand up unsteadily.

Just as the two Fairy-type Pokémon were defeated, two Ice-type Pokémon jumped out from the shadows.

One is a pure Ice-type Glalie, and the other is a Dark/Ice-type Weavile.

Clearly, these people came prepared, and the Pokémon they brought were all aimed at Salamence.

As soon as the two Ice-type Pokémon appeared, a blizzard suddenly appeared out of nowhere, clearly indicating that one of them had used the snow scene.

The snow scene will change the weather to snow and increase the defense of Ice-type Pokémon, which is extremely disadvantageous to Salamence, a Dragon/Flying-type Pokémon.

Along with the snowy scenery appeared incredibly thick ice pillars, which hovered directly above the dragon's head before falling and crashing down upon it.

It was an icicle falling!

"Roar~~"

With a roar, the Salamence spewed forth a torrent of flames, instantly melting all the ice pillars into vapor and vanishing.

While Salamence was dealing with the ice pillar, Weavile and Glalie charged towards it together.

Weavile brandished its claws, which emanated a chilling aura – it was Frozen Fist; Ice Ghost extended huge fangs from its mouth, also radiating a chilling aura – it was Frozen Fang.

But they clearly underestimated the strength of Salamence.

The Salamence raised its long tail and lashed out at Glalie, sending Glalie crashing into a rock wall and suffering the same fate as Amarillion.

Then it raised its dragon claw and slammed it hard onto the body of the mammoth.

Weavile screamed and flew backward. Although it was slightly higher level than Wigglytek, it was fragile and immediately lost its ability to fight.

At this moment, wisps of pink mist appeared on Fatdog's body, instantly filling the entire cave.

It was a misty area.

Under the Misty Field, Dragon-type moves deal half damage!

Furthermore, the Fairy-type energy scattered throughout the area will make Dragon-type Pokémon very uncomfortable.

Snowflakes were falling from the sky, and a thin mist hung over the ground below, causing the Salamence immense pain and making it even more irritable and enraged.

At this moment, the leader made another move. He rolled up his sleeves, revealing a bracelet on his wrist with a keystone embedded in it.

He said coldly, "Houndoom, Mega Evolve!"

"Awoo~"

Houndoom roared to the sky, and the next second, the Mega Stone hidden on its body and the Key Stone on the leader's wrist resonated, and a strong light burst forth.

In the intense light, Houndoom's size underwent a huge change, its original height of less than 1.5 meters suddenly increasing to nearly 2 meters.

After Mega Evolution, Houndoom leaped into the air and unleashed a Dark Pulse at Salamence.

However, Salamence didn't take Houndoom seriously at all. With a flap of its wings, it easily dodged Houndoom's attack and arrived next to Houndoom in the blink of an eye, raising its claws to strike Houndoom.

At this moment, a protective shield appeared around Houndoom, blocking Salamence's attack, and it landed easily.

Salamence attacked again, unleashing a Dragon Pulse, but Houndoom was incredibly fast, dodging the attack with leaps and bounds, and letting out a series of roars.

This is the Dark-type move, Roar.

Although this skill is not very powerful, it is difficult to defend against and can also reduce the opponent's special attack.

Besides, Houndoom's purpose wasn't to attack Salamence.

The Salamence was getting increasingly agitated by Houndoom's incessant roars, and the lingering snow and mist made it even more miserable.

Just as the Flying Dragon's attention was diverted, the two people hiding in the shadows made their move, each holding a gun.

They aimed their guns at the Salamence, and with two whooshing sounds, two syringes were inserted into the weak points of the Salamence's wings, and the unknown liquid in the syringes was immediately injected into the Salamence's body.

Salamence is covered in thick scales that ordinary syringes cannot penetrate. Only the inner side of its wings is soft and is its weak point.

Therefore, the attacks launched by Amarrul, Wigglypuff, Weavile, and Glalie were not aimed at defeating Salamence.

Although they are type-advantageous against Salamence, the huge difference in strength makes it impossible for them to defeat Salamence.

Therefore, their real purpose is simply to interfere with Salamence.

The same applies to Houndoom.

The drug took effect quickly, and the Salamence suddenly felt dizzy, and then it felt its body was out of control.

"Roar~~Roar~~" It let out a series of roars, but its voice was weak.

Thud~~~

With a loud bang, Salamence crashed heavily to the ground, then its head lolled to the side and it passed out.

"Despicable humans!" the Salamence thought angrily before losing consciousness.

Seeing this, those wearing red uniforms breathed a sigh of relief.

Just as they were about to grab the Salamence, a beam of blue and white light shot out, instantly freezing the ground beneath their feet.

Everyone was startled and instinctively backed away. Then they saw a Pokémon emerge from the shadows and stand in front of the unconscious Salamence.
