Pokémon: From Magikarp

"Help... help..."

"God, please save me..."

……

“Is grandma always like this?”

Hearing the old man's mumbling in his sleep coming from another room, Qiu Ning looked at Bai Shouli and his wife and asked.

"Ugh."

Bai Shouli sighed, his face looking somewhat bitter.

"Since my mother heard the strange bell, her condition seems to have worsened all of a sudden. She has nightmares almost every night."

"Did the old lady tell you about her dream? It sounds like it's related to the village god."

Lin Shi intertwined his hands, rubbed his fingers alternately and asked.

The couple looked at each other.

Bai Shouli scratched his head and said thoughtfully:

"She didn't tell me the content of the dream, but I remember she told me a story."

"It seems that when she was very young, something happened in the village and my mother was in danger of her life, but fortunately she was saved by the legendary god in the village."

"We all thought she just made it up to scare the kids..."

As he said this, he glanced at the room opposite. The old man was still in a nightmare at the moment, and no one knew what he was going through.

He sighed and continued:

"Alas, but now it seems that it may be true."

Lin Shi rubbed the rim of the cup with his hand, then raised the cup and took a sip.

"The sound of bells, gods, ghosts..."

Then he looked at Bai Shouli and asked:

"Village leader, I am somewhat interested in what the old man said about the village god. In addition to the old lady, does anyone else in the village know about it?"

Bai Shouli was stunned and thought carefully about what Lin Shi said.

Then he shook his head.

"There are too few people left in the village now, and the people who might know about this are all elderly people. Those who are still alive have gone to live elsewhere with their children."

"The remaining people in the village probably don't know about these things now."

"but……"

Speaking of this, Bai Shouli seemed to suddenly think of something.

"I've heard from the elders in the village that there seems to be a small temple in the back mountain not far from the village, which is used to worship the gods who once protected the village."

"Small temple?" Lin Shi asked.

"Correct."

Bai Shouli nodded more affirmatively.

"It seems to be in a cave in the back mountain, but many years ago, due to a landslide, the entrance of the cave has been filled with rocks and soil. Since I was born, I have never seen anyone enter it."

"So, there should be information about this god in that small temple." Lin Shi nodded and said.

"Hey, so does this have anything to do with that ghost we're looking for?"

Meng Wan couldn't help but ask.

"Maybe. You all should have felt it last night. When we were about to fall into hallucination, it was because of the sound of the bell that we woke up. This at least shows that the owner of the bell is our friend, not our enemy."

"And every time the ghost appears, the bell will ring, which means there may be some connection between them."

Lin Shi explained to everyone.

"but……"

Lin Shi changed the subject.

"We can't find any more clues about it now."

"Let's prepare for the battle with that ghost thing tonight. As long as we can successfully subdue it, you can bring back the elf, we will complete the mission, and everyone will be happy."

"Then we won't have to worry about the gods or the bells, and the village will be able to return to its former peace."

Lin Shi said to everyone as he looked at the village where the thick fog was gradually dissipating.

……

At night, the cold wind blew gently and thick fog once again filled the village. Lin Shi and others could feel that the fog was even heavier tonight.

"Whoosh."

A ghostly shadow was floating quickly in the village, its white eyes no longer had the liveliness they once had, floating like a puppet.

"Shh."

Two thick vines suddenly emerged from the fog, bound the Haunter in the air with lightning speed, and then increased their strength to pull it down.

"Quick, Mengge, use the Poké Ball to take it back."

Lin Shi's voice came from the thick fog.

Meng Ge didn't waste any time, he took out the Poké Ball and was about to take Haunter back.

"Whizzing……"

Several balls of blue flames suddenly rose from the air and shot quickly towards the vines that bound Haunter.

"Waiting for you."

"Bluse Turtle, Water Wave."

"Click."

Blastoise was summoned, and the cannon barrel gathered strength, firing water bombs towards the phosphorus fire.

The water bomb and the fireball collided in the air, canceling out each other's explosions. Meng Ge also took the opportunity to successfully put Haunter back into the ball.

"Woooo..."

A sound like the howling of ghosts and wolves rang out from the air. It was obvious that the behavior of Lin Shi and others had angered it.

A black shadow emerged in the air, and two black shadows like arms waved in the air. Then, black energy balls like small black holes gathered in the air and scattered towards the people.

"It's a Shadow Ball, everyone be careful."

Qiu Ning shouted to the people around him.

"Blazoo Cannon, Cool Panther's Evil Wave, Nine-Tails' Flame Jet!"

Qiu Ning shouted and commanded three elves at once. The three of them attacked at the same time to resist the shadow ball in the air.

"Boom bang..."

The explosions caused by the attacks intertwined in the air, making bursts of noise.

"Electric dragon, one hundred thousand volts!"

"Bulbasaur, Leaf Storm."

"Drillhorn Rhyno, rock blast."

At this time, Aunt Song was also commanding the elves to attack. Three elves stood in front of her, bursting out with powerful momentum. Lin Shi used the identification system to look and found that they were all above level 55.

As expected of a gym-level trainer.

Lin Shi sighed in his heart.

Yellow electric currents danced in the air, gathering into a yellow electric dragon, which, carried by the storm of flying leaves, violently attacked the black shadow in the air.

"call."

A chill suddenly came from the air with the black shadow as the center, and then the fog in the air began to condense into frost. Snowflakes were flying in the huge storm, whistling towards the attack.

"It seems like a blizzard."

Lin Shi recognized this skill. A white storm came in an instant, and cold currents continued to attack everyone.

"Ugh."

A sinister and shrill cry was heard, and everyone saw a round ball emitting red light appear in the dark shadow in mid-air, like a blood-red moon.

Then, the power of the blizzard increased again, and the bone-chilling cold current swept towards everyone.

"Go together!"

At once everyone ordered the elves to fight back. Lightning leaves, flaming rays, rock and frost, and skills of various attributes appeared at the same time, confronting the ice storm in the air.

"Baby Bear uses Rockslide."

"Igu."

The baby bear punched the ground with his fists, and powerful rock energy gathered in the air, whistling and smashing towards the black shadow in the air.

The red moon's eyes flashed in the sky, and two fireballs appeared instantly, colliding with the rocks and stirring up clouds of smoke and dust.

"Baby Bear rushes forward and uses Shadow Claw."

"Mongoose Slash, you should also attack the vital points with a sneak attack."

The moment Lin Shi launched the attack, Aunt Song released another mongoose to attack together with Lin Shi.

I saw Baby Bear and Mongoose Zhan using the stones created by the rockfall as stepping stones and rushing towards the black shadow at a rapid speed.

The baby bear crossed his hands, and the ghost power outlined black claws on its palms. A red light flashed in the bloodshot eyes of the meerkat, and the fluctuations of the evil element emanated from its body. Its palms were clenched, and a sharp blade of evil emitting black light appeared in its hands.

"let's go."

The two elves burst out with all their strength and slashed at the black shadow in the air. The thick fog was split into two by this sharp attack.

"Show me your true face!"

Everyone stared at the sky intently.
