……

Absol doesn't often appear before elves and humans; each time it does, it's to warn of impending disaster.

Therefore, Absol hasn't come to this forest for decades, so how could the elves who have lived in the Enchanted Forest all year round believe the words of this strange elf without reservation?

The group of Infernapes took Absol's words as a provocation and started fighting at the drop of a hat.

Absol was already exhausted from the long journey these past two days and couldn't even run anymore.

Fortunately, the wrestling eagle appeared in time; otherwise, she most likely wouldn't have been able to escape alive from those fiery monkeys.

Absol wanted to leave not because she was afraid of or hated Xia Chen and the others, but because she wanted to go to more places to warn others.

Even if no elves believe her, she has no regrets.

Fortunately... the first person who believed her warning finally appeared.

This gave Absol great psychological comfort. So, a second or third such person or elf should appear, right?

With these thoughts in mind, Absol endured the pain and prepared to turn around and leave, heading off to distant lands once more.

"Wait a minute, you can't go very far in this state. You should heal your injuries first before leaving. Besides, the Enchanted Forest is so winding, you have no way to get out like this."

The people behind them tried to persuade them to stay.

Perhaps because of his compelling reasons, or perhaps because of the genuine emotion in his voice, Absol finally stopped.

…………

Absol was so tired that he fell into a deep sleep without realizing it after relaxing his mind.

Xia Chen took out his personal medical kit from the storage ball and skillfully treated the wound.

Karuni watched the focused boy quietly from the side, then suddenly asked, "Do you really believe what Absol says?"

Xia Chen countered, "Does Miss Karuni, like many of the older generation, believe that Absol brought about the disaster?"

Karuni shook her head. "No, but data from the past twenty years shows that Absol's accuracy in predicting disasters is not as good as that of modern scientific instruments. I think we should contact the meteorological bureaus of Snowdrift City and Hundred City first."

Xia Chen nodded and said, "It's a very reasonable plan. In addition, I think we need to temporarily capture two flying-type Pokémon that can carry people. If there is a natural disaster, it will most likely be an earthquake or an avalanche. With this insurance, we will be more confident whether we continue forward or return to Yingxue City."

Xia Chen and Karuni were discussing countermeasures back and forth, but they didn't notice that Ralts quietly moved closer to Absol and placed her hand on her snow-white fur.

Immediately, a look of horror crossed his face.

Chapter 158 The Cocoon of Destruction About to Reawaken!

The sky was overcast.

It wasn't because night had fallen, nor because a downpour was imminent.

Rather, it is because of... His resurrection.

It is composed of red, which represents blood, and black, which represents death.

Its scarlet, blood-red wings and tail were spread out, with five curved, slender, eagle-like talons extending from each of its broad outer edges.

He spread his wings, and with each breath, the trees in the area He covered withered, all things turned to stone, and everything lost its vitality.

This is not a fact that is happening now, but rather a scene that is currently flashing through the minds of Ralts and Sylveon.

The difference is that Ralts saw the future in Absol through [Call of Time].

Xianbu, on the other hand, recalled her memories of her past life.

Beside Xia Chen, Sylveon looked solemn. At this moment, she finally understood the worries she had before the trip.

It is the awakening of Yveltal in her [Cocoon of Destruction] form!

Logically, Senbu shouldn't have forgotten such an important event, but there were just too many major events that followed.

Solidified Battle, Time-Space Twin Dragons, Dark Night Descends, Ultimate Space...

Every legendary, elven-level event has come at a terrible cost to both humans and elves.

This also resulted in her not remembering Yveltal's awakening very clearly.

Because later on, this kind of thing became the norm...

Absol's prompting and warning finally brought back memories of the day Deathwing descended.

Of course, this wasn't something she experienced firsthand, but rather a scene she later witnessed in a video.

As for the person who filmed the video, all we can say is that the deceased was in a very stable state at the grave...

However, the disaster didn't actually end so badly. After a small part of Snowdrift City was affected, Xerneas finally appeared.

After the two legendary elves had a "friendly" exchange, Yveltal gave the Great X God face and left.

Although Xerneas used his primal power afterward to restore some of the life to the areas shrouded in the dark aura, many places still bore the aura of death and could never be restored.

That area includes parts of the Enchanted Forest!

Xianbu didn't know the exact location of that area, but just to be on the safe side... the Enchanted Forest must not be left untouched!

…………

"Buyi!"

"Ralu..."

Xia Chen was healing Absol when Sylveon and Ralts suddenly spoke in unison.

"Sylveon, Ralts, what's wrong?"

After treating Absol's external injuries, Xia Chen looked up at the two serious-looking Pokémon.

Sylveon and Ralts looked at each other in surprise, both seeing the worry and fear in each other's eyes.

At the same time, the same thought arose in their minds...

Did she also know about what was about to happen?

But how did she know?

"What's wrong? What were you trying to say?"

Xia Chen looked at the two elves who seemed to want to say something but didn't, feeling somewhat puzzled.

Sylveon turned to Ralts and said, "Sylveon? (You go first?)"

Ralts hesitated for a moment, then pointed to the way they were going back and said, "Ralts—(We must leave here immediately!)"

Sylveon's expression tightened. Ralts really knew about His arrival. Was it with the help of that mysterious ability?

It should be.

Xianbu nodded in agreement.

Xia Chen guessed, "You mean we need to leave immediately?"

The two elves nodded in unison.

Xia Chen hesitated for a moment before looking at Karuni. She shrugged and said, "I just asked a friend to inquire with the relevant agencies in both cities, and they all said that all disaster monitoring in Carlos has been normal recently. Here's the information, you can decide whether I stay or leave."

Having received this crucial information, Xia Chen hesitated before looking at the two elves.

Although their expressions were very confident, Xia Chen still asked somewhat unwillingly, "Can't you even catch two Flying-type Pokémon to help us avoid the disaster?"

Sylveon and Ralts shook their heads in unison.

Xia Chen suddenly realized something, and asked with a solemn expression, "So... the disaster predicted by Absol wasn't a natural disaster?"

After hesitating for a moment, Xianbu nodded solemnly in affirmation of Xia Chen's statement.

Xia Chen was startled and felt a chill run down his spine.

…………

Karuni frowned as she looked at Xia Chen and the two elves, who were speaking in cryptic language, her mind filled with confusion.

With just a few words and a few gestures, Xia Chen seemed to understand everything, yet Xia Chen himself remained completely bewildered...

She was never one to beat around the bush, so she asked directly, "Did you and Ralts guess something?"

Xia Chen said solemnly, "Have you heard of the [Cocoon of Destruction]?"

How could Karuni not have heard of the legend that has been circulating in the Carlos region for thousands of years?

Legend has it that when Yveltal reaches the end of its lifespan, it will absorb the life force of all living beings and return to its cocoon form.

This cocoon is called... the Cocoon of Destruction!

When Yveltal awakens, he will destroy everything in his path.

Simply put, it's being grumpy when you wake up.

But the legends of elves' morning grumpiness are not so simple, let alone the Great God Y who controls death.

If that giant really does awaken, not only myself, but even if Carlos, the current champion Senares, came, he wouldn't be able to stop it.

Karuni took a deep breath and calmly asked, "But how did you know that Yveltal... was about to awaken?"

Xia Chen was speechless. He knew his own elf was special and could completely trust it, but Karuni did not.

He could only say helplessly, "I don't have direct evidence, but Absol's warning and the information my two Pokémon obtained through special means should be enough to raise our awareness."

After a pause, Xia Chen continued, presenting possible evidence, "Furthermore, if Dr. Blatano's deduction is correct, the appearance of Yveltal is also reasonable. Those three legendary elves exist for the ecological balance of Kalos, and now the overactive life energy has awakened the sleeping god of death..."

Karuni rubbed her temples. "I'm willing to believe you, and I can help you contact the mayors of Baike City and Yingxue City, but I really can't guarantee how they will respond."

"Will Yveltal awaken? When will he awaken? Where will he awaken? Without knowing any of these things, getting millions of people to migrate with their elves and belongings... that's no easy task. The manpower, resources, and finances required are immense. What if it turns out to be a false alarm..."

Xia Chen understood what she meant. It was almost a pipe dream to make those people believe that Yveltal was about to awaken based on just one Absol, two senior-level Pokémon, and a weak and immature deduction that was barely related.

He sighed and said slowly, "Do your best and leave the rest to fate..."

Chapter 159 Absol's Choice

“Ab…”

Absol, who was lying on the ground, finally woke up slowly, and the first thing she did upon waking up was to stand up and prepare to leave.

The kindness that is almost ingrained in her genes made her want to warn more living beings, even when she was in such poor physical condition.
