Chapter 955 The Paradoxical Species Gift Pack
Chapter 955 The Paradoxical Species Gift Pack
In the Padia Crater, in Zone 0, Ash chases Roy, who is being pursued by Ironhide, at a steady, slow pace.
While the Sand Ironhide is quite ferocious, the problem is, Roy, is it really right for you to run away riding a Bone-Tattooed Giant Crocodile?
While Ironhide has no weakness to Fire-type attacks, Ground-type attacks deal significant damage to it.
You've already forgotten what I just learned about earthquakes?
Ash won't save him; he'll wait for him to figure it out himself...
"Hey, ghost! Long time no see..." Before Roy could stop, Ash turned the corner and saw Corsola.
This guy is having a great time playing with a howling tail...
It wasn't exactly happy, anyway, Roaring Tail wasn't happy; it was roaring loudly at Coral. But the roaring sounded a little... coquettish?
"Ugh, this guy is so noisy!" Coral couldn't help but cover her ears.
Ash, intrigued, crouched behind Milton and warned, "Hey! Corsola, right? That Roaring Tail is being affectionate with you. It's got its eye on you."
"Huh?!" Upon hearing this, Coral and the Ice Demon Guardian beside her were both stunned.
Is this guy's style of expressing his preferences really that wild?
"According to the Book of Zhu, Roaring Tail hasn't evolved delicate vocal cords to sing yet, so she expresses her emotions by roaring," Ash explained.
"Is that so? Oh my god~" Coral readily complied and threw a Poké Ball at it.
Bang! Sure enough, the warning lights didn't even flash; it was subdued instantly.
"Huh?" Coral and Ice Ghost tilted their heads, showing the same bewildered expression.
"Thanks, ghost!" Coral put away the Poké Ball and immediately ran happily towards Ash.
*Snap!* Before the girl could rush forward, Master Duo stopped her in a princess carry around her waist.
"Hey kid, don't be too enthusiastic towards the teacher." Xiao Zhi blinked: "The teacher has a home now~"
"Hi~" Coral lay in Master Dorothy's arms, looked up, and couldn't help but exclaim, "What a cool Pokémon..."
*Thud!* Master Duo instantly teleported away, causing Coral to fall flat on her backside...
"Well... it has a home now," Ash said speechlessly.
"What? So boring~" Coral pouted in dissatisfaction. The Ice Demon Guardian beside her was speechless. Wait, have I fallen out of favor so quickly?
"Speaking of which, since you're here, then... that bastard Onikis is probably nearby, right?" Ash asked with interest.
"Ahem~ Well... hello teacher." Onikis, accompanied by the Salt Stone Giant, emerged from the side with a sheepish look on his face, and gave Coral a fierce glare.
It's all your fault!
Coral nonchalantly covered her head with her hands: "It's okay, we're not mortal enemies with Ash."
"Sorry, we were asked by Spinner to follow you. We'll leave now." Onikis sighed and put his hands on his head.
"No need to be so polite." Ash waved his hand. "You and Amegion have already formed an alliance, right? That makes you good kids. I won't hit you."
“See… I told you so.” Coral immediately winked at Onikis.
“But…we are, after all, an exploration team.” Onikis frowned.
"The creator of the exploration team is Riko's ancestor Lucius. Strictly speaking, the exploration team should be on our side," Ash blurted out.
"Now, the head of the exploration team is Ji Bing, and Amegio is Ji Bing's grandson, so he has the right to inherit the position."
Legally and morally, you two should be on our side. Spinner is the outsider you should be wary of.
The novel theory captivated Coral and her companion: "It seems... to be true..."
"Sector Zero is full of dangers and opportunities. Spinner sent you here without telling you anything."
You've been treated like expendable pawns. You should figure out what to do next.
I only have one piece of advice: there are many powerful Paradox Pokémon here, so since you're already here, don't waste the opportunity.
"In the future, Amegio will need stronger teammates," Ash said seriously.
Although Onikis was a bit dim-witted, he was at least capable of thinking. After a moment's thought, he immediately nodded: "I understand. Thank you for your honesty. Coral and I will seriously consider it."
"Alright, I have to go catch up with Roy. You two take care of yourselves." Ash left a medkit behind and strode away.
"What did Ash leave us, you little devil?" Coral asked, leaning closer with interest.
Onikis picked up the medkit, his eyes filled with complex emotions. "It's a medkit. This gentleman... is a truly respectable elder. Let's go, I'll go see what interesting Pokémon are here."
"Hehe, it's hunting time, I love ghosts!" Coral cheered and followed Onikis away.
……
On the other side, Roy and Sand Ironhide finally got into a fight, and under the full power of the Bone-Patterned Giant Crocodile, Sand Ironhide quickly collapsed and couldn't get up.
However, this guy knocked the other party unconscious but didn't subdue it. Instead, he and the Bone-Patterned Giant Crocodile forced the other party to sing a song.
When Ash arrived, he saw Tinker, an Ancient Paradox, swaying its body and running away happily like a child...
"Teacher, how was it? I moved him with my singing!" Roy proudly puffed out his chest and raised his head.
Xiao Zhi was speechless: Guess what would have happened if you hadn't been able to beat it?
"Well, never mind, since you don't like this one, let's hurry up and catch up with Riko and the others." Shaking his head helplessly, Ash led Roy on a wild run.
Finally, as dusk fell, they caught up with the main group.
“Oh, you’re back, that’s great.” Fried pointed to the cave ahead: “There’s a natural cave here, we can stay here tonight.”
Xiao Zhi nodded in satisfaction: "Then let's rest here. Everyone, tidy up your sleeping areas, and I'll take the night watch."
Surrounded by a clear stream, Fried built a campfire and prepared instant rice and pre-made curry in his travel lunchbox, which would make a delicious dinner after a quick heat.
After a long day, the three children quickly fell asleep. Fried and their teacher, Ms. Belle, nestled around the fire in the cave, where the three children slept fully clothed.
Only Ash sat at the cave entrance counting stars.
"Looking up from here, it's like looking at the sky from the bottom of a well," Xiao Zhi remarked, looking up.
Xuanwu Tailebagosto, with Pikachu, lingered at the cave entrance as if patrolling its territory, occasionally taking a disdainful bite of the nearby Taijing...
This energy is far too fragmented for Xuanwu...
"The night is long and I can't sleep. I'll just need a Paradox to cheer me up..." Ash murmured softly.
"Eek!!!" A sharp, mournful cry pierced the night sky. Ash suddenly stood up, and Pikachu alertly pricked up its ears.
*Thud* A Pokémon several times larger than a Dreamweaver was cleaved out of the void by a single slash from the Azure Flame Blade Ghost.
The shadowy light sword extending from the shadow claw pinned the opponent to the ground, while Azure Flame Blade Ghost gripped the greatsword on his back tightly.
As long as Ash gives the order, Azure Blade Demon will chop this guy up.
"This is..." Xiao Zhi took out the Book of Vermilion and flipped through it: "Winged Wing, a high-speed mage, it's a pity it ran into Azure Blade Demon, a physical assassin-type warrior..."
"Little guy, since you're already here, come with me?" Ash asked, crouching down.
Zhenyi looked Xiaozhi up and down, feeling a gentle, comforting force, and immediately nodded.
Unlike the future species, the ancient species are mostly driven by their bloodline and savagery, but the law of the jungle is their basic rule of survival.
Therefore, it is easier for the victors to subdue the losers.
Ash gently tossed the Poké Ball and added Winged Beast to his roster. He returned to the cave entrance and sat down again: "Hey~ let's see if any more silly little devils will walk right into my trap~"
