Pokémon: Thunder Shatters the Darkness

Walking around, feeling the temperature getting higher and higher, Yang Xiao instinctively sweated a lot.

If the red sand outside had a temperature like that of a scorching summer sun.

Then this place is even better.

at this moment.

He finally chose to reconcile with his underwear and accepted its existence from the bottom of his heart.

It’s also rare.

"Crack."

After walking for what seemed like two or three minutes, my second uncle stopped in front of a cave.

He turned his head to glance at Yang Xiao who was soaked all over, silently took a half step back and spread out his hands.

Yang Xiao took to heart his second uncle's attitude which seemed to show some disgust towards him.

But he didn't say anything, just smiled, nodded and strode forward.

It is normal to worry about your children and nephews and to exclude yourself.

There's nothing worth saying.

As soon as he stepped into the cave, Yang Xiao turned around and saw the Red Lotus tribe leader who had made great military achievements and was covered with "badges".

And beside it, there stood the charcoal servant, who seemed to be in deep thought.

Hear movement.

Tan Xiaoshi raised his eyes, and the next second he saw Yang Xiao, he jumped down decisively and ran straight towards his trainer.

She threw herself into his arms.

Before Yang Xiao had time to speak, he felt the temperature around him dropping rapidly.

Looking down, he saw Tan Shi trying hard to absorb the fire elements around him.

If high-level Pokémon are not restrained, they will emit a certain amount of attribute energy even in daily life.

In the secret realm, Pokémon basically will not suppress this.

Because the Pokémon that coexist with them are all of the same attributes.

This is completely different from the outside world.

When forming a partnership with a trainer in the outside world, one needs to restrain one's attributes, otherwise the human body may find it difficult to withstand this situation for a long time.

Even though the trainer's face was all smiles, Tan Xiaoshi could see that Yang Xiao's entire body was red because of his father's inability to control his energy.

Even breathing was a bit difficult.

Looking at this scene, the stern eyes of the Red Lotus clan leader softened slightly.

Yang Xiao quickly glanced at the patriarch and kept his expression in his mind.

The clan leader didn't seem too surprised, or perhaps he was as indignant as his second uncle.

It seems to understand the relationship between itself and Tan-sama very well, and is not like its second uncle, who has some resistance to the trainer.

Speaking of which...

Yang Xiao suddenly remembered something.

If I remember correctly, it seemed that this clan leader was the first to agree to release some charcoal servants to the outside world.

It was so smooth that even the advance expedition teams that were ready for battle were caught off guard.

Not right.

Yang Xiao naturally held Tan Xiaoshi in his arms, his face expressionless.

I just patted its head and whispered, "Thank you, I'm much better now."

Done.

He looked up at the Red Lotus Clan leader who had remained silent.

"Hello."

When their eyes met, Yang Xiao greeted first.

He said politely, as if he was seeing his predecessor:

"I'm Tanshi's trainer. My name is Yang Xiao and I'm 18 years old."

Chief Honglian looked at him silently and nodded slightly.

Sudden.

Its brows wrinkled slightly, and its eyes became sharp again, observing the boy's body closely.

Finally, his eyes fixed on the mountaineering bag behind the boy.

This vague feeling of danger is not an illusion, is it coming from here?

Feeling the other person's gaze, Yang Xiao had some guesses in his mind and glanced down at his trainer belt.

Then he bowed slightly, drawing the other person's attention to his movements, then clasped his fists and said again:

"I assure you that Tan Xiaoshi will not be buried with me."

“I trust it and it trusts me.”

Yang Xiao said in a resounding and powerful voice: "No matter what problems we encounter, we will advance and retreat together. Please believe me."

The boy's words involved his own child, which made the Red Lotus tribe leader temporarily suppress his inner doubts and just look at the boy quietly.

Count your breaths.

It lowered its head again and looked at the charcoal servant in the boy's arms.

Tan Xiaoshi did not hide anything, and his eyes revealed his full trust in the young man.

See this.

Chief Honglian nodded slightly and leaned quietly against the wall.

Yang Xiao breathed a sigh of relief.

Taking advantage of this gap, he quickly went through several plans and wordings in his mind, and finally his thoughts became a straight line in an instant.

A rare opportunity.

"Clan leader."

Having made up his mind, Yang Xiao no longer hesitated, but immediately took off his backpack and unzipped it:

"I would like to ask you a question..."

"Crack."

Sudden.

A column of fire brushed past the boy's body and shot towards the wall behind him.

The scorching heat hit his face, making the boy's movements slightly stiff.

Wow!

The Red Lotus leader lowered his arm and extinguished the flame on the tip of his fist.

[I accept my child to be a partner with you, but this does not mean that I can accept everything]

It has become serious, and it points to the half-zipped backpack, and its stern gaze appears again.

[The armor stays here.]

I can ask you how you heard about it, but that's all.

You don’t need to ask me about the rest.]

Yang Xiao was silent for a moment.

The charcoal servant in his arms raised his arms and shouted, "Crack!"

I disagree.

[Useless]

Chief Honglian turned around again, his attitude very firm.

[This is absolutely impossible, just give up on this idea]

Seeing his father's attitude, Tan Xiaoshi immediately struggled in Yang Xiao's arms, causing the latter to hold him tightly.

Looking at its posture, it looks like it is about to land and punch its father.

Count your breaths.

Yang Xiao took a deep breath, patted the tan servant's head gently, and smiled at it.

I'll try.

After settling it, Yang Xiao looked ahead and said calmly:

“Chief, I will tell you what’s next, whether you want to hear it or not.”

The Red Lotus clan leader just turned his back and said nothing.

"From what you've said, this armor should have some secrets, but you and I both know that it was not stolen, but was picked up by Master Yan near the tribe."

"Such a mysterious treasure would not be blown away by the wind outside the tribe. If we exclude the premise that there is a thief in the tribe, then this...is not difficult to guess."

Hear the words.

The back of the Red Lotus tribe leader trembled slightly, and so did the Tan servant.

It stared blankly at its trainer, then turned its gaze to its father.

Yang Xiao paused for a moment and continued, "In our world, there is an old saying..."

The words have not yet fallen.

Yang Xiao's eyes suddenly drooped slightly, and he said softly: "Parents who love their children will plan for them in the long run."

"Perhaps there are some circumstances that I am not aware of, and you did not make up your mind to let Tan Shi come into contact with this armor."

"But to be honest..."

Yang Xiao raised his eyes, quickly gathered in his mind the strange things he had seen in the tribe, and slowly said:

"Even in the outside world, I can't think of a way to make it evolve..."

Swish!

Tan Xiaoshi trembled violently for a moment.

next second.

It slowly raised its eyes and looked at Yang Xiao.

You...you knew it a long time ago?

Yang Xiao didn't say anything, but rubbed its head again, and then continued, his tone sincere and earnest:

"If you have no other options, perhaps this is its only chance."

In his sight, the Red Lotus tribe leader, who had his hands behind his back, slowly loosened his hands.

The whole burly body stood there, looking a little lonely.

half an hour.

"Crack."

Is there no safe way to evolve in the outside world?

"No."

boom!

The Red Lotus clan leader leaned forward with one hand on the wall, and the sparks that burst out were dim.

Perhaps it was because this news shattered its thoughts that it suddenly spoke slowly after a period of silence:

[…It cannot pass the test of promotion because it cannot inherit the attributes of superpowers, and even rejects them to a certain extent]

The charcoal servant lowered his head, his eyes blank.

"Then this armor..."

【I have no idea】

The patriarch could hardly maintain his tone.

[According to the records on the stone tablet, our tribe has never had a precedent of condensing purple armor during the trial. Even if we condense all of them, we will only condense yellow armor.

This set of armor is an ancient artifact passed down among the tribe.

According to the records on the stone tablet, we may have another completely different type of evolution, but the specific method is not recorded on the stone tablet.

We don't just have one route of evolution through condensed armor, we can also evolve through inheritance, which is even safer.

But to this day, all the Red Lotus Armored Knights who died in battle have their armor and bodies reduced to ashes without exception.

But the purple armor is still incomplete...】

The patriarch took a deep breath and almost couldn't support his body.

[To repair it, a huge amount of ghost energy is required.

[There is not enough energy in the tribe to reshape the armor. The defect is far beyond our imagination. Even I don’t know how to reshape it.

[Trying to evolve with an incomplete set of armor was only slightly less difficult than the trial, but the chances of dying were still high, so I gave up in the end.]

The patriarch turned his body and shook it gently.

[As a charcoal servant, I may not be able to evolve and my life force may decline... but at least I can survive, right?

Just let it follow you and go see the outside world.]

The flame of the clan leader's voice became dimmer and dimmer, and the charcoal servant in Yang Xiao's arms was even more listless.

There was only silence in the cave.

"Wait a minute."

At this moment, the boy suddenly spoke, attracting everyone's attention.

He put Tan-sama on the ground, and the latter just sat there in a daze, instinctively looking at his trainer—

Yang Xiao was rummaging through his backpack.

“Maybe it’s not that bad.”

The words fell.

He took out a flameless oil lamp and looked at the patriarch whose eyes were dead at first, then gradually regained their brightness:

"To be honest, I feel like I'm being controlled by fate... but let's not talk about this for now."

...

In the sphere.

Wudao Master Xiong frowned slightly, feeling the changes in his body.

Just now, it sensed that the diamond bead in its body seemed to be slightly fluctuating, as if someone was secretly spying on something.

And now, the fluctuations have stopped again.

It's like someone else has left.
