In the confined space of such a mine, one's senses are especially acute.
The Swamp Monster's fins tilted in the opposite direction of the cave's depths, and even its body trembled slightly.
Swamp monsters prefer to live in wet swamps or tidal flats close to the sea.
It was humid and warm there, but the wind blowing from the depths of the cave now carried an extreme chill and a sense of desolation.
Sure enough, Swampert's vigilance was not unfounded.
Soon, Fang Gu and Steve felt a significant drop in the temperature of the surrounding air, and even frost appeared on the nearby rocks.
'Boom! '
"Boom!"
Deep within the cave came muffled footsteps, which sounded like thunder in everyone's ears. Fang Gu swallowed hard.
Isn't this the thirtieth floor of the abandoned cave?
How could there be such an oppressive elf!
"hiss."
Steve felt immense pressure. He only sensed the chill in the latter half of the frozen layer, but based on the Swampert's expression, Steve already had an answer in mind.
The dominant Pokémon on the 70th floor of the abandoned cave! Abomasnow!
Sure enough, Steve spotted the pair of blood-red eyes that shone in the darkness, which appeared to be nearly three meters tall!
Steve gritted his teeth, threw everything in his hands to Fang Gu, and kept only the four Poké Balls at his waist for himself.
"You go first, I'll catch up soon."
Fang Gu remained silent, only nodding solemnly to Steve. He then threw out a Poké Ball, tied his backpack to his riding sheep, and carried Steve's oversized backpack on his back.
Right now, he can only be a burden to Steve.
I have to go outside and find rescue!
Yes! Uncle Link!
As Fang Gu ran, he prayed silently, "Steve, you must hold on until Uncle Link arrives."
…………
The three-meter-tall figure, hidden in the darkness of the cave, was finally revealed to Steve.
His body was covered in long, snow-white fur, making him look like a wild man who would only appear in the deep mountains covered in snow all year round. His hands, feet, and even tail were covered in dark green, and long, white hairs covered his facial features.
As expected, it's Abomasnow, the overlord of the 70th floor!
The "dominant Pokémon" here does not refer to Pokémon with a dominant aura that boosts abilities like those in the Alola region. It simply refers to the Pokémon with the largest and most powerful roster within its species.
These Pokémon are mostly leaders of their species, and their presence can even give the species absolute leadership in a certain level of the mine.
The Snow Kings in front of us are the leaders of the Snow Hat Monsters on the 70th floor. At the same time, the Snow Hat Monster population occupies the most advantageous position on the 70th floor and is the main population occupying the 70th floor.
It is thanks to the powerful Blizzard King in front of him.
However, how did it suddenly arrive at this thirtieth floor? What should its people do? There are quite a few other ice-type spirits on the seventieth floor.
Like Double Ice, Tundra Bear, Geometric Snowflake.
These elves are probably all secretly coveting the location of the Blizzard King's seed.
Last time, when facing Blizzard King, both Steve and Blizzard King stopped short of each other, because Blizzard King was afraid of being seriously injured and being taken advantage of.
"Blizzard King, it's me! We met a month ago!"
Steve took a step toward Blizzard King and called out loudly, hoping that Blizzard King would recognize him.
But Blizzard King's blood-red eyes couldn't tolerate Steve's presence. With a roar, blizzards mixed with sonic waves spewed out from his gaping maw.
Steve could only raise his arm to block.
Steve noticed something amiss.
Normally, the Blizzard King's eyes are deep purple, but now they are completely covered in blood.
It was in a state of frenzy, refusing to listen to reason.
Steve gritted his teeth and then shouted at Blizzard King.
"Although I don't know why you came to this floor, I'll soon send you back to the seventieth floor!"
Steve glanced at the Swamp Monster.
"Swamp Monster, step back and let the other companions handle it!"
Swampert nodded steadily, took a step back, and moved to Steve's side.
This position won't obstruct Steve's view and can protect him at any time.
The reason for not giving it to it is simple: the opposing Abomasnow is a Grass/Ice type, and any Grass-type move would take away most of Swampert's health.
He certainly had better options when facing Blizzard King.
"Go, Coal Tortoise!"
Steve throws out a Poké Ball.
As soon as Coal Turtle landed, it used the Smoke Screen skill.
Thick black smoke billowed from the cracks in the tortoise shell, making the already poorly visible cave even darker.
From the darkness came Steve's shout: "Use fire breath, Coalossal!"
Amidst the thick black smoke, a dazzling, blazing fireball burst forth, like a scorching sun leaping out of the darkness and chaos!
…………
"Brother, if we fail to find the fossils as the boss instructed, and also fail to find the artifact the team requested, is it really okay to just capture these few snow-hat monsters?"
As Fang Gu was running and retreating, he suddenly heard a voice coming from not far away.
Fang Gu frowned, raised his hand to turn off the light on his miner's helmet, and quietly approached.
"Are you stupid! So what if we don't find it?!"
Do you still remember what our team's ideal was?
Fang Gu hid behind a rock and saw a man in a red suit scolding another man in a red suit.
Several dejected snow-hat monsters stood before them.
It's Team Flare!
Fang Gu looked at their signature sunglasses and instantly recalled their identities from his memory.
The evil organization hidden in the Carlos region is cunning and treacherous, with an extremely strong ability to infiltrate; there are even many of their people in the League.
Their leader was Vladali, a descendant of Carlos's royal family and a great philanthropist.
A dragon-slaying hero who becomes a dragon.
The Flame Team member who had been beaten hesitated and said, "Eliminate all the greedy humans in the world and lead the Flame Team into the New World!"
The next moment, a pair of large hands landed on the head of the Strike Flame team member who had been beaten.
"Fool! That's Lord Vladari's ideal! Our Flare Team is composed of the noblest humans in the world, and we can do whatever we want."
"What's wrong with catching a few snow-hatted monsters and taking them back?"
Chapter 62 Injury! Hypnotic Powder
"And these snow-hat monsters are willing to follow us."
"They want to follow us into the new world!"
"They benefited from our success."
"We took them in so that they wouldn't perish along with this filthy world."
The Flame Team member adjusted his sunglasses and let out a cold laugh.
The remaining Team Flare member was dumbfounded, but was then persuaded by his senior to look at the Snowcap Monster they had imprisoned as a matter of course.
The Snowcap Monsters seemed to have discovered Team Flare's true colors, and they huddled together, trembling.
One of the smaller snow-hat monsters was already acting strangely, its eyes becoming glazed over; it had been away from the cold environment for far too long.
They are not like the Blizzard King, capable of regulating their body temperature on their own.
Upon hearing the words of his Team Flash subordinates, Fang Gu's hands clenched involuntarily, his fingernails digging into his palms, as he muttered under his breath, "These bastards!"
These snow-hatted monsters are most likely related to the tall, chilling figure that Fang Gu and Steve just encountered.
Maybe it's the child of that figure.
It's no wonder that Fang Gu could see anger in those blood-red eyes.
As for Team Flare's claim that the snow-hatted monsters followed them voluntarily, that's probably true too.
Snow Hat Monsters typically live in remote, deep mountains where they are covered in snow year-round.
Snow Hat Monsters are very curious about human tracks and often gather around human footprints on their way to Beijing.
They also feel a strong curiosity and goodwill towards passersby.
News reports often feature stories of adventurers who have been missing in the deep mountains and forests for more than half a year returning alive to human society.
Behind this, we owe a great deal to the kind help of people like Snow Hat Monster and Snow King.
These kind-hearted Pokémon will squeeze out the scarce food available in winter to share with humans in distress.
Fruit often grows on the snow-hat monster's body.
When humans taste its popsicle-like fruit and exclaim in admiration, the wild snow cap monster will show a very happy expression.
Such a kind elf.
Their kind hearts were exploited by these guys from Team Flare!
Fang Gu will never forgive these guys!
"That little guy looks like he's about to die."
