Bottom-tier trainers in the Pokémon world

Their drilling ability is so strong that it cannot be limited by the narrow space of a tunnel.

Xia Yan can use the tunnel space to deal with a small number of Night Thief Salamanders, but if he tries to use the same method to deal with Dragon Head Groundhogs, then sorry, they will definitely let Xia Yan know that being good at digging means you can do whatever you want.

Therefore, a small space is not suitable for dealing with gophers; in fact, it may trap you inside.

Therefore, the best approach is to introduce a group of attackers and then deal with them one by one, thus depleting their manpower first.

Xia Yan felt as if he had returned to the days when he was conquering difficult levels in games.

Since we're going to use the tactic of luring monsters, how to do it becomes crucial.

Thinking of this, Xia Yan's gaze fell on the Flame Queen Lizard beside him.

Sensing Xia Yan's gaze, the Flame Queen Lizard suddenly trembled slightly, a chill ran down its spine, and it stiffly raised its head, giving Xia Yan an awkward smile.

Finalize the tactics.

It would be difficult and troublesome for Xia Yan to face the huge group of Dragonhead Mole on his own.

Fortunately, he first subdued the Night Thief Salamander clan, and with their help, things became relatively simpler.

After all, the Night Thief Salamander was already evenly matched with the Dragon Head Gopher clan, and with his help, the only cost was that the Night Thief Salamanders, who had just recovered from their injuries yesterday, were injured again.

After a day of fierce fighting, and by combining some "small" strategies and making good use of the "corrosive" properties of the Night Thief Salamanders, Xia Yan finally succeeded in conquering the Dragon Head Mole Clan.

Unlike the Fire Lizards, who were used to the Flame Queen Lizards dominating them and taking down the Flame Queen Lizard meant taking down the entire Fire Lizard clan, the Dragon Head Rat clan was not so "servile." When Xia Yan captured the Dragon Head Rat leader, the Dragon Head Rat clan members who still had the ability to resist either launched a frenzied counterattack or scattered and fled.

They wanted to crawl through the hole and leave, and Xia Yan really couldn't stop them.

The end result was that most of the Dragonhead Mole swarm fled in an instant, and the remaining ones, if not captured, would probably all run away after waking up.

They will move to a different location, elect a new leader, and continue to maintain the development of the entire group.

It didn't matter anyway. Xia Yan had subdued the leader of the Dragon Head Excadrill, as well as several elite Dragon Head Excadrills and the resources accumulated by the entire Dragon Head Excadrill family, including some items of considerable value.

This is the end.

The two major clans in this underground tunnel will either be completely subdued or completely scattered.

Xia Yan also successfully learned how to leave the underground tunnel from the leader of the Dragon Head Rat.

However, after learning the method, Xia Yan was no longer in a hurry to leave.

He was curious about what that elf, which was so feared by both the Flame Queen Lizard and the Dragon Head Grub leader, was.

And what about the area it guards? Could there be anything good inside?

Chapter 42 Another Mega Stone Appears

The third day after entering the alternate dimension.

Xia Yan confirmed that they were indeed deep underground in another dimension, and that they were in an underground world thousands of meters deep.

If it weren't for the fact that Excadrill is really good at digging, and that some Excadrill are single-minded and keep burrowing upwards, they would have finally broken out of the ground and seen the outside world.

However, since the dragon-headed gopher can reach the ground, leaving is not so difficult.

The underground tunnel is undisturbed, and although the resources are not as plentiful as those on the surface, it is no longer a major threat.

If Xia Yan were a law-abiding person, he might have chosen to "lie low" here for the full fourteen days and then leave after the trial ended.

But Xia Yan was destined to be a restless person.

It's not that he doesn't want to be content with his lot, it's that the circumstances don't allow him to be content with his lot.

In the space of Regigigas, a large amount of resources were obtained, enough to sustain consumption for a period of time.

But no matter how much resources you have, they will eventually run out.

As someone with no background or connections, who climbed up from the bottom step by step, he had to fight and strive for every resource and opportunity he had.

Having finally entered a previously unexplored alternate dimension, we naturally couldn't waste it.

So on the third day, Xia Yan ordered the Flame Queen Lizard to lead the Night Thief Salamanders to begin scavenging all the materials they had marked in the tunnel, while he led the elves to the area that the Flame Queen Lizard and the Dragon Head Grub were wary of.

A fiery red world filled with lava!

The moment I stepped into this place, I was hit by a wave of heat.

magma!

Having witnessed the volcanic lava where Regigigas created the three pillars of the gods, coming here is a completely different experience.

The volcanic lava was initially contained by Regigigas's Rhythmic Furnace, so although it was hot, it wasn't as hot as what he sees now.

Boiling and surging magma, with constantly rising magma bubbles bursting, wisps of scalding white steam rising from them.

The surrounding rock walls were all fiery red. Rocks that could withstand such scorching heat must be made of exceptionally strong material.

Lava worms and lava snails climb on these rock walls.

This place is simply their paradise.

Lava snails thrive in the abundant minerals and food they consume, and they have no natural predators to worry about, resulting in a very large population.

Fortunately, the lava snails were relatively peaceful and did not show any hostility towards Xia Yan's sudden arrival; they simply glanced at him intentionally or unintentionally.

Otherwise, another fierce battle may be inevitable.

Above the gushing lava, there is a path made up of exposed red rocks, and at the end of the path is another dark cave.

Clearly, the spirits lurking behind that cave are the very beings that the Flame Queen Lizards fear.

Xia Yan activated his superpowers to shield himself from the scorching heat as much as possible, barely managing to catch his breath.

I calmed myself down.

After hesitating for a moment, he said, "Go."

Since we're already here, I'm a little reluctant to go and take a look.

If the Pokémon's strength is exceptionally terrifying, retreat immediately and do not linger.

Yunjira used Teleportation to precisely transport them to the other side of the lava, to the platform outside the cave.

Upon closer inspection, it was discovered that the cave was not entirely dark; a faint red light filled the space, allowing one to make out some details of what was inside.

Xia Yan took a deep breath. "Be careful, everyone."

Only when the elves were on high alert did they enter the cave, under the watchful eyes of the lava snails and lava worms.

Even after leaving the magma, the scorching heat showed no sign of dissipating.

Occasionally, fiery red lava flows out from the cave walls and floor, and the temperature of the lava here is even higher than outside.

His entire body was enveloped in superpowers, and he moved without making a sound.

A faint blue light continued to shine in Yundira's eyes.

It's trying to use the "foresight" trick to see if it can sense something.

The cave wasn't long, and soon his view opened up again.

The cave inside is much smaller than the caves where the lava snails live outside, but unlike the outside, lava here flows down the rock walls like a waterfall, except it's a lava waterfall.

The fiery red light illuminated the entire cave.

Lava cave!

This is the name Xia Yan gave to this place.

Because lava was flowing everywhere, on the ground and on the rock walls, and even the inner layer of this lava was golden in color!

This indicates that the magma temperature here is much higher than outside.

There is only one platform for standing, extending from the cave entrance to the center of the lava.

"Hiss!"

The Beedrill's scarlet eyes gleamed, its long stinger pointing towards the platform in the center of the magma.

There was a stone platform there, on which sat a stone that was entirely red but had a golden vein running through it, and it seemed to be drawing something from the surrounding magma.

However, the bee was not pointing to the rock.

Instead, embedded in the crack of the stone platform was a gleaming, seven-colored stone, with a strange flow of energy seemingly circulating within it.

"A Mega Stone!" Xia Yan's eyes lit up instantly.

As one of the few people in the world who enjoys the benefits of Mega Evolution, he is well aware of the value of this stone.

Surprisingly, I found a Mega Stone here.

He now has a Beedrill Mega Stone on him, and another Mega Stone whose corresponding Pokémon is currently unknown. This is the third one he has seen!

In addition to the Mega Stone, the two palm-sized stones placed on the platform also attracted some of his attention.

Instead of taking any immediate action, he looked around and slowly furrowed his brow.

They had been here for some time, but they had not seen the terrifying elf that the Flame Queen Lizard had described, nor had they seen a single elf.

Xia Yan didn't believe that the Flame Queen Lizards had made a mistake, or that the elves who originally lived here had disappeared, or even died of old age.

Otherwise, why don't the lava worms and lava snails outside come in?

Logically, the magma here should be what they prefer.

I stood silently in place for a while.

Still no sign of the elf, Xia Yan hesitated, "Could it really have died of old age? Like, just died? Or did it leave for some reason?"

Although it sounds far-fetched, it's not impossible.

Hesitating.

"Yongji!"

Suddenly, Yongjira let out a low shout, raised his spoon, unleashed his superpowers, and stood in front of Xia Yan.

Suddenly, a ball of scorching magma shot out from the churning lava pool, its target Xia Yan, who was standing at the entrance of the cave.

whoosh-

Yunjira's teleportation successfully helped them dodge the attack.

Its "foresight" ability allowed it to successfully sense the approaching danger and react in time.
