Why would you need a girlfriend when you have Pokémon?

Chi Yansong did not show any particular disappointment about the failure of the two cadres, because it was indeed within his expectations.

Not long after, a burst of brisk footsteps came closer and closer. He, who had been staring at the crater, realized that it was the most critical moment.

"Then..." He turned around and looked at the figure that appeared from the other side of the mountain road, revealing a smile, "Thank you for your hard work, everyone..."

"…it's you guys who did this."

As soon as Yasha saw the scene, she immediately understood about 80% of what was going on. Sure enough, the abnormality of Chimney Mountain was caused by the Lava Team. But this was also a good thing.

Over there, the stolen meteorite was placed in that strange device. If nothing unexpected happened, as long as we destroyed the device and took back the meteorite, everything so far would be explained.

In this case, there was no need for any more nonsense. Yasha took a deep breath and quickly got ready...

Chapter 162: Eat lemon and get excited!

Noticing the strange huge machine behind Chiyansong and the meteorite placed inside the machine, Yasha immediately understood.

As long as the machine is destroyed and the meteorite is taken back, all previous failures can be made up for.

Yasha was sure of this, so she immediately perked up and quickly got ready.

However, just as she was about to rush forward and start fighting, Chi Yansong's voice came.

"… Isn't this Chimney Mountain beautiful?"

"what?"

Perhaps she didn't expect the other party to say this at this time, so Yasha was stunned for a moment. She even doubted whether she had heard it wrong. Why would this man chat with her at this time?

But her reaction was not slow. The fire-breathing camel and the coal turtle, one on the left and one on the right, each fired a big fire-breathing shot at them at the same time!

Unlike the previous fire goose, which erupted in the form of a fireball, on Yasha's side, the fire camel and the coal turtle simultaneously spewed out blazing red-gold flames from their mouths. The two flames merged into one, turning into a raging wave of fire...

Whether it was in the Meteor Falls Cave before, or when facing the elite members of Fire Village and Lava Team just now, he was unable to give his full strength due to various reasons.

She couldn't use all her skills in the big cave due to environmental problems, and she had to reserve her strength to deal with the red flame pine, so at this moment, she finally had the chance to use all her skills.

This was her real ability. After being completely freed from her restraints, the terrifying firepower that could instantly melt rocks into magma now mercilessly blasted towards the direction of the red flame pine.

Honestly speaking, with that huge fire that could melt rocks in an instant, if it really sprayed on a person, the person would probably be burnt to a crisp on the spot like a crematorium. However, Yasha didn't think that the culprit in front of her would be unable to withstand a blow of this magnitude.

Her main target of attack was the machine that was constantly operating behind Chi Yansong.

"...This Chimney Mountain is very beautiful. Of course I know about that. I grew up in this mountain, so how could I not understand that? What are you guys doing in someone else's important memory place!!!"

There was obvious anger in Asha's voice, which was understandable. Fire-type Pokémon have very bad tempers, so trainers who are good at controlling Fire-type Pokémon usually have two extreme personalities.

Either he is calm and composed enough to cooperate with his Pokémon in a complementary way, and use calm thinking to control the violent flames...

Or you can just burn with passion together with Pokémon, anyway, it's just like "Eat lemon, it's on fire!"... Just burn it out thoroughly together.

Asha's character is obviously the latter, and the more crucial point is, as Asha said, Chimney Hill is an important place of memories for her.

She had been training in the mountains with her grandfather since she was a child. She had walked up and down this mountain so many times that she had no idea how many times she had done so. She had become as familiar with the mountain as her own backyard. She had shed so much sweat and tears on this land.

But no matter whether it was sweat or tears, they were all irreplaceable and precious memories. And now, these people from the Lava Team have made such a big fuss in Chimney Mountain and are even planning to completely destroy the environment of Chimney Mountain.

After all, according to Lowe's previous analysis and speculation, the God of Earth is sealed under Chimney Mountain, which is also the origin of the special terrain of Chimney Mountain. So if the sleeping God of Earth is really awakened, what will happen to this originally dormant active volcano? It is a no-brainer.

The murals in the caves of the Wudou Town ruins have clearly explained all of this with extremely simple strokes. Of course, in fact, there is no need for these murals, because this itself is a legend known to everyone in this land!

Facing the full-powered Asha, Chi Yansong remained calm. He gently adjusted his glasses with one hand and threw out the Poké Ball with the other...

With just such a simple action, Lowe noticed that there was something embedded in the frame of his glasses. As that thing glowed with seven colors of neon light, the seven colors of neon light continued to gather in the Poké Ball he threw casually...

...The next second, a Pokémon with a volcano on its back appeared. Its appearance was at least 70% similar to Asha's Charizard, but its body was more than two times larger, and the two humps on its back merged into a huge volcano.

"Mega evolution!"

Not long ago, the miraculous power that was once displayed by Xijiana, the Citizen of Meteor, was unexpectedly displayed here by Chiyansong.

The Charizard that had completed its mega evolution snorted, and two streams of flames gushed out of its nose. Immediately, the volcano behind it began to churn, and the raging flames mixed with magma turned into a fountain that erupted!

The boiling magma was gushing into the sky, and then quickly fell down under the action of gravity. The flames gushing from the fire-breathing camel's nose collided with Asha's double-bristled fire-breathing camel, and for a moment they were evenly matched!

The meteors that were flying down from there were all heading towards Lowe...

"...Okay, no wonder you are so relaxed."

There is no doubt that Red Flame Pine's trump card is his mega fire-breathing camel. In terms of strength, the power he displayed at this moment is even greater than that of Xijiana.

Xijiana is a true member of the Meteor Clan and the legitimate inheritor of the power of mega evolution. Chiyansong is naturally not a member of the Meteor Clan, he has merely mastered the ability of mega evolution.

However, at this moment, it seems that the power of mega evolution is not exclusive to the Meteor People. Even in the hands of Chi Yansong, it seems to be a bit stronger than that of Xijiana.

"You don't think we are unprepared and dare to act recklessly, do you? I don't know how Shui Wutong tricked the Meteor People into cooperating with him, but I also have my own channels to obtain this power..."

"Haha, this really shocked me. The Alliance hasn't even figured out the power of mega evolution yet. So where did you get this power from? Let me guess..."

While Lowe raised his hand to command Gardevoir and Sylveon to fight back with his mental strength, he held the Z Pure Crystal in his hand...

There is indeed no need to hold back now, and he can fight with all his strength.

But before that, there is still a question that people are concerned about. How did Chi Yansong get the information about mega evolution...

At that moment, Lowe smiled and said a possibility...

"... Let me guess. Your partner is the president of the Aether Foundation, Mrs. Lusamine, right?"

"!"

Chapter 163: The Villain’s Reason for Causing Trouble

Although in the game, with the reveal of the secret of mega evolution by Shijiana, the Citizen of the Meteor, and the cooperation with the League, this power has been mastered by more trainers, so that in the later period, any passerby can mega evolve.

But at this moment, mega evolution is still a relatively rare ability. The Alliance has not yet mastered its essence. Only Shijiana, a member of the Meteor Clan, is the legitimate successor.

Then how did Chi Yansong obtain the power that even the Alliance could not fully grasp?

In fact, if we do a simple process of elimination, the answer will be very clear. After all, there are really not many options to choose from.

In this world, the only organizations that can compete with the Alliance in terms of intelligence gathering and technology, apart from Team Rocket, which should have survived by now, are Silver Corporation, which developed a series of items such as Poké Balls, Ghost Lenses, and Learning Devices, Devon Corporation, which developed Pokémon Navigator, and...

…The Ether Foundation!

Then, with a simple association based on the context, the answer is obvious.

"Your partner is Madam Lusamine of the Aether Foundation, right?"

"Ha ha……"

Chi Yansong did not admit it, but he did not deny it either. His attitude basically meant that he agreed with Lowe's guess.

"?!"

As soon as these words came out, the expression on Lillie's face became even more subtle. She knew, of course, that her mother had been doing things in secret, but she had never expected that even the Magma Team was in collusion with her.

"...Let's not discuss this aspect for now."

Lowe clenched the Z Pure Crystal in his hand, and unleashed the ultimate power with all his strength, pouring it all into Gardevoir. She immediately spread out the spiritual field, and an incredible aura spread out under everyone's feet. For a moment, the entire space seemed to be shrouded in a layer of faint purple light.

"Oh, is this your trump card? It can actually coexist with the realm of God, interesting~"

Pokémon battles... "Battle field" is also an important influencing factor. Since the introduction of the concept of "weather", various weather teams have always been popular in battles.

After that, the concept of attribute field was introduced, making the combat environment more complicated.

Because of the power of the God of Earth, the entire Chimney Mountain and even a large area of ​​the nearby town have been shrouded in the effect of a sunny day.

Moreover, this is different from the weather effects of ordinary Pokémon, because it is the embodiment of "God" or concept, and the weather changes caused by it cannot be changed by the power of ordinary Pokémon.

Even if you put a hundred rain-praying Pokémon here, they cannot cover the sunny day that the God of Earth calls for. And this is just the leakage of part of the God of Earth's power, not His true strength at all.

Under such circumstances, it is impossible to snatch the weather, unless the God of the Sea or the God of the Sky can come. Otherwise, with the abilities that Lowe possesses, he can only arrange the attribute venue to allow the two forces to coexist.

“However, even if I can coexist with the realm of God, I can never match God’s brilliance, let alone defeat me who is about to harness the power of God!”

It was not wrong for Chiyansong to call this sunny day "God's Realm", but to be honest, Lowe had an urge to laugh.

Compared to the scenes painted on the murals in the caves of the Wudou Town ruins, the scene before us could only be described as a minor incident, because in fact the power of the God of Earth had not awakened at all, and this was not the true realm of God at all...

"The realm of God is only this level... It's not even a fraction of the real realm of God. You really don't know what's good for you..."

This is not a mockery, but a statement of the self-evident fact that the other party is trying to awaken the gods and harness the power of the gods for their own use.

but……

"...The wild Pokémon in this Chimney Mountain have already taken the initiative to retreat to a safe place before that."

Chiyansong raised his head and spoke calmly. His words also solved the doubts of Lowe and Yasha. Why are there no wild Pokémon that should have been lurking here now? But...

"Then what do you want to explain?"

"It is the instinct of living things to seek benefits and avoid harm. These Pokémon sensed the power of the God who is about to awaken, so they instinctively felt threatened..."

"..."

For a moment, Lowe actually understood what he was going to say next...

"...But we humans are different. Compared to Pokémon, we humans are so weak. If Pokémon evolve according to normal nature, there will be no place for us humans in this world."

This statement is true, just like it is rare to have ordinary animals in the Pokémon world. Logically, with the existence of Pokémon, ordinary creatures simply have no ecological niche to survive.

To put it more extremely, let alone ordinary creatures, even humans should not have a chance to survive in the world of Pokémon.

Humans are weaker than Pokémon in all aspects, even in their most proud aspect, intelligence, they are inferior to Pokémon. Most Pokémon have intelligence that is not inferior to that of humans, and many are even ridiculously smart.

For example, Alakazam is set to have a computing power stronger than a supercomputer, and his IQ is as high as an absurd 5000...

Although the numbers in this illustration are the same as many settings and it is best not to take them seriously, even if they are not as outrageous as 5000, it is definitely enough to crush most ordinary people.

So under this premise, why can humans still have a place in this land?

This is the unique power that the God of Creation bestowed upon humans when he created this world...

"…This is curiosity and creativity! The instinct of living things is to seek benefits and avoid harm. When they see a force that threatens them, they will inevitably choose to escape. But we humans are different. We are curious, we will try to master it, and we will try to turn the force that threatens us into a part that we can control!"

Just as Lowe said before, the world of Pokémon is too "gentle". It is a world with excessive productivity, so that ordinary people can live a peaceful and smooth life without doing anything.

It is precisely because things are too smooth that if there are villains who really want to cause trouble, in most cases they are not involved in any bitter economic disputes. Most of the driving forces behind the villains' troubles do not exist in this world.

Therefore, if these villains want to cause trouble...they must be pursuing something at a higher level.

When people are no longer satisfied with an ordinary affluent life, they will want to reverse all the shortcomings that make them dissatisfied with themselves, even the underlying laws of the world itself.
