Chapter 325: Baking Desert Victini's Fire Bullet Leihe
Chapter 325: Hot Desert·Victini's Fire Bomb·Lehe
As Dragonite flapped its wings and controlled the airflow to land steadily on a low sand dune, Luo Mu, who had already put on wide-brimmed dust goggles, dust masks, sun hats, sun-proof clothes and a pair of desert boots, turned over and got off.
Except for some rock walls, most of the desert is under direct sunlight. If he hadn't made such preparations, Luo Mu would probably have been sunburned when he returned.
Luo Mu's luck today was pretty good. He didn't encounter a large sandstorm that was very difficult to deal with in the desert. Once he encountered that kind of weather, he would have to stop and wait in place or find shelter to survive the sandstorm.
Not only is visibility extremely low in a sandstorm, but the strong winds also make it extremely difficult to move.
Once he was trapped in place, he would have to face the extreme weather in the desert, where it was hot during the day and the temperature dropped sharply at night.
Fortunately, Luo Mu had already brought the corresponding Pokémon with him to ensure that he would not be harmed by extreme weather due to the temperature and weather, considering that he might stay here for a few days due to the progress of the exploration of the Hot Desert.
After taking back Dragonite, Luo Mu released the Heavy Mud Horse, which was now wearing a saddle that allowed people to ride comfortably. Ground-type Pokémon are always more comfortable in the desert. As the Heavy Mud Horse moved its front hooves and began to walk slowly, Luo Mu took a deep breath through his dust mask.
At this moment, he felt the dry and scorching air in the air, and his eyes fell on the endless golden sand. At this time, the sun was shining obliquely, and the sand in the entire Hot Desert was shining brightly in the sun, as if the entire desert was coated with a layer of golden light.
The breeze gently passed by, easily bringing up a sand mist, and another sand dune in the distance changed its shape under the breeze, as if this piece of sand land was breathing at this time.
Looking at the place a little further away, there was yellow sand all over the sky, and the ground formed by countless sand and dust piles was shaking slightly, as if something was running towards this side.
Then, countless long calls from far to near sounded.
"Moo~~"
Patting the heavy mud draft horse under him to make it stop for a while, Luo Mu took out a portable telescope from his pocket, squinted one eye, and looked in the direction of the call.
A group of Pokémon with a strong figure, full of tendons and black hair.
Kentaro from the Padiya region.
Judging from its three braided tails, the red dots on its mane, and the sharp long horns, this group of Kentaro should be the fire-type Kentaro.
The desert is an area directly exposed to the sun's rays, so it is not surprising that fire-attribute Pokémon live there. Luo Mu remembered that in the game, somewhere in this hot desert, there was also a Pokémon called Burning Bug living here.
The Burning Bug is the pre-evolution form of the Vulcan Moth. This Pokémon is considered to be the most talented and potential among most "weak" insect Pokémon. In addition to its rare number, some people even compare the Burning Bug with the late-blooming Pokémon cubs.
Although Luo Mu is very interested in the cool Vulcan Moth cubs, the most urgent task now is how to deal with this group of Kentaro tribes that are galloping towards him and the Muddy Horse.
He and the Muddy Horse are probably blocking their way.
If ordinary trainers encounter this group of hot-tempered bulls head-on, they will probably choose to avoid them and not conflict with them.
At this time, this group of Kentaro is very close to Luo Mu and the Muddy Horse. According to their full running speed, it is impossible for the Muddy Horse to avoid them in advance with its bulky physique.
However, there are many ways to stop them or force this group of Kentaro to change their direction than to avoid them.
"Victini, please help me."
Luo Mu looked at his right shoulder, which seemed to be empty, and a muffled voice sounded because of the dust mask.
"Bi Mi~"
A crisp cry sounded in Luo Mu's ears, and Victini appeared with a big smile on his face. Under the scorching sun at this time, the V-shaped ears on its head were hot and red as if burned by fire.
After leaving Aindoak with Luo Mu, Victini experienced several battles with Luo Mu and absorbed a lot of high-quality victory fluctuations to enrich himself. His strength is a world apart from before.
Not long ago, it finally mastered its last exclusive move.
"Flame bomb!"
As Victini took off, the sky was covered with scorching flames in an instant. The scorching fireball with a terrifying temperature became larger and larger with the addition of the raging fire centered on Victini, until it turned into an extremely large golden red fireball.
The surface of the fireball rotates continuously, making the surrounding air drier and drier.
If V-Flame is a physical move in which Victini ignites the everlasting fire of victory and strikes the enemy with all his strength.
Then the fireball is a long-range, high-mass attack that uses the rich victory wave and Victini's infinite energy as raw materials, and has a high probability of burning the enemy.
Victini's moves are always so exaggerated and full of courage.
Even if it rises to a height far away from Luo Mu, Luo Mu can still feel the drier air around him and the scorching air waves hitting the exposed skin.
The group of Kentaro who are rushing forward have been in turmoil because of the existence of the fire bomb, and even the speed of the rush has slowed down a bit. Some Kentaro have already made the move of wanting to stop.
"Moo!"
But under the leadership of the head bull, this group of Kentaro still follows the will of the group and continues to charge towards this side with courage, without any intention of changing the route.
This is also in line with their habits. Once they start running, they will never stop unless they are exhausted or hit something. In addition, this stubborn head bull has no intention of turning, which has created this group of notorious Kentaro in the hot desert.
Seeing that the group of Kentaro still had no intention of turning, without Luo Mu's reminder, Victini aimed at the sand a few meters in front of them, and manipulated the golden red fireball with a rotating flame, which was like the air waves around the falling comet, to make it fall to the ground with a bang!
In an instant, the flames shot up into the sky, and the extremely "hot" yellow sand heated by the fire bomb flew out and fell on many Kentaro. Even as a fire attribute Pokémon, it was burned and let out a painful roar.
Not to mention the energy fluctuations that made the Kentaro palpitate when the fire bomb exploded. Knowing that he had hit a tough guy, the head bull looked at Victini and Luo Mu in fear through the fire, and turned around without hesitation, rushing to the other side and leaving!
No matter how rough and violent their personalities were, no matter how reckless they acted.
When they meet Luo Mu and Victini who are more arrogant than themselves, these seemingly brainless bulls who only know how to rush forward will suddenly feel itchy in their heads, find their brains that have just been lost halfway, and directly choose to temporarily avoid the edge.
Looking at the dust behind Kentaro and others when they rushed, Luo Mu smiled easily, called Victini in the sky back to his shoulder, and asked with concern: "How do you feel?"
"Tini Tini!"
Victini straightened his chest and looked proud.
Except for a slight loss of some harmless mental power, the loss of energy is nothing to it!
Stroking Victini's head, Luo Mu said: "That's good, but after you go back, you still have to continue to meditate with Zhihuixing and exercise your mental power, so that you can perfectly call on your talents."
"Tini!?"
When Victini heard that he had to meditate, he lowered his head like an eggplant hit by frost, his face full of despair.
How could it stay in one place for hours?
Victini puffed up his cheeks and turned invisible instantly. This time, he chose to lie directly on Luo Mu's head to express his dissatisfaction.
".Alas."
With a slight sigh, Luo Mu, who felt Victini lying on his head, rode the heavy mud horse, who remained calm despite the collapse of the mountain, and continued to move forward into the interior of the hot desert.
In fact, in addition to letting Victini use fire bombs to stop the Kentaro tribe, the heavy mud horse also has the ability to stop them.
However, if the heavy mud horse is allowed to stop it, it may cause some bad changes. In the end, Luo Mu chose to let Victini solve the problem with a slightly more fancy method.
As one of the veteran members of the farm, the heavy mud horse has also received teachings from Tapu Moo. Even though Tapu Moo is not a ground-type Pokémon, as a land god, it is still extremely proficient in ground-type knowledge.
The Heavy Mud Horse is like the nameless monk who has been developing silently. Now he has even mastered the ultimate move of the ground system, Earthquake.
If the Heavy Mud Horse had used Earthquake with the help of Victini, it would have been able to cause a local sinkhole to block the running of Kentaro and the others.
The desert is generally very empty below. Once such a terrain change occurs, it is very likely to set off a big storm after a series of evolutions, which is something Luo Mu does not want to see.
He has no control over the changes caused by the fights between other wild Pokémon, but if he has the ability and it is not a matter of life and death, Luo Mu still wants to avoid causing extreme weather as much as possible.
After all, there are many Pokémon living in this hot desert, and many humans come here to explore.
Shortly after Luo Mu and the Heavy Mud Horse left this area, a dark green off-road vehicle that was as smooth as walking on flat ground in the desert stopped here, and a young woman with long lead-gray hair and brown-red skin walked out of it.
She wore half-frame glasses with gold frames. She was in the desert, but she was still wearing a blue short-sleeved top. Her desert boots stepped on the still scorching yellow sand. Her clothes were filled with many strange elements.
If Luo Mu was here, he would definitely recognize the legendary elves represented by many of these elements.
Articuno, Machado, Tapu Nami, Lunala, Gu Jianwo.
The woman's name was Leihe. Her eyes hidden behind the lenses flashed with a wise halo. She looked around with one hand on her chin, as if she was thinking about something.
Looking at the heavy footprints on the ground, Lei He smiled thoughtfully. He used a heavy mud horse to move forward in the desert. It seemed that the other party should also be an experienced desert explorer.
After a moment, Lei He adjusted her glasses and made up her mind.
"Let's go find the trainer who made such a big noise!"
"Maybe he can help me enter successfully."
Moving forward in the desert is a rather boring thing, just like being on a vast ocean, surrounded by the same scenery, without any intention.
In a sense, the desert is also an ocean, an ocean composed of sand and dust.
The only thing that makes the desert less boring is the huge rocky mountains that appear from time to time, inexplicably protruding, and the various Pokémon living in this hot desert.
The afterglow of the sunset fell on this hot desert. Luo Mu did not encounter any major events that were worthy of praise during the whole day's progress, but it was quite interesting to observe the "all kinds of creatures" in this hot desert.
A group of tall boulder dinosaurs gathered together, forming a circle at the same intervals and heading west, looking at the setting sun with Luo Mu.
A group of sand hippopotamuses and black-eyed crocodiles were fighting for a sand dune. The quality and quantity of the sand here were just right, enough for them to dig a hole big enough to accommodate themselves and their companions, so as to avoid the sudden drop in temperature at night in the desert.
Because the black-eyed crocodiles needed this sand dune more than the sand hippopotamuses, as Pokémon based on crocodiles, they had difficulty adapting to the sudden drop in temperature, so the black-eyed crocodiles were always more afraid of restraining their ice-attribute moves.
The black-eyed crocodiles fought hard and fought hard, but soon they drove away the sand hippopotamuses, who were dispensable to them.
The victorious black-eyed crocodiles roared with joy, then crawled on the sand dune, working together to dig a hole with their short forelimbs and hind limbs until they were completely buried, and Meimei fell asleep early.
A group of motionless thorn ball cacti (Desert Naia) and Dream Song cacti disguised as cacti gradually began to move, changing from motionless during the day to active, waiting for the temperature to drop at night and start looking for prey exhausted by the heat of the desert during the day.
Humans in the desert are the favorite prey of Dream Song cacti. Dream Song cacti will follow those exhausted young men and their Pokémon from the heat of the day, following them from a distance until they are exhausted and rush to grab their luggage and food.
As the night fell, the desert wind blew over the desolate desert, and a group of Nasher grass rolled with the wind, not knowing where they were going and not caring where they would go.
Riding on a heavy mud draft horse that had steady steps and never stepped into a sand pit, Luo Mu's body swayed slightly as it walked.
At this time, Luo Mu looked into the eyes of a Dream Song cactus with one eye rolling around.
At the moment of eye contact, Luo Mu knew everything from the slightly greedy eyes of the Mengge cactus.
He was targeted by this Mengge cactus.
Sure enough, soon after Luo Mu and Chongni Pulling Horse slowly passed by it, this Mengge cactus was far behind them.
There were even many Mengge cacti who chose to follow suit and followed closely behind Luo Mu and Chongni Pulling Horse in groups.
"Are you treating us as soft persimmons?"
Luo Mu raised his eyebrows slightly, wondering where these Mengge cacti got the courage from.
He had ridden Chongni Pulling Horse for a day, and he was indeed a little tired both mentally and physically.
However, Chongni Pulling Horse now almost maintained the same physical strength as when it set out.
Characteristics of Chongni Pulling Horse: "Endurance".
The effect in the game is that the defense will be increased by one level every round. In reality, in addition to this effect, it is more reflected in the endurance blessing of Pokémon.
Just like the camel, the companion of the desert traveler, the heavy mud draft horse with the characteristic of "endurance" is like a perpetual motion machine in the desert. As long as it is provided with sufficient food and water, it can walk for a week.
"The reason why I can target the heavy mud draft horses with sufficient physical strength is that they are in groups and their confidence is really increased?"
After thinking for a while, Luo Mu decided to ignore this group of dream song cacti for the time being.
Anyway, when they realize that they have the combat power to easily crush them, these guys will naturally retreat.
After all, evil attribute Pokémon are famous for their cunning.
The most urgent task now is to find a suitable camp to set up camp and prepare to rest.
First of all, the place to camp should not be in a place with many exposed rocks and sparse vegetation, so as to avoid a rolling stone suddenly falling on your head while you are sleeping well, which can easily cause you to die.
Finally, under the guidance of the system, Luo Mu chose a place under a smooth rock wall. This place can not only block the desert wind at night, but also has no exposed rocks that are easy to fall.
What's more, leaning against a wall can always give people a sense of security.
Luo Mu had done the work of setting up tents many times before. In the past, when he was training hard in the wild, he often didn't even bother to go back to the city, unless he ran out of medicine and food, he would go back to the city for supplies.
In this case, Luo Mu has mastered the art of setting up tents by himself. He can set up a large tent that is windproof, sandproof, and even sun-proof and rainproof in a few minutes.
It has to be said that although the black technology in the Pokémon world is a bit crooked, the birth of space props is really very useful for travelers.
If he had been carrying heavy luggage today, not only Luo Mu, but also the physical strength of the heavy mud horse would be consumed faster than now.
Although the improvement for Luo Mu and the heavy mud horse is not much, at most it saves a little effort.
But for ordinary trainers and explorers, the birth of the space backpack is equivalent to the appearance of a divine artifact, which greatly increases their exploration speed and exploration time.
After the tent was set up and the moisture-proof mat and sleeping bag were laid, Luo Mu took out some dry firewood from the backpack and stacked it.
"Victini, lend me a fire."
Luo Mu looked sideways at his right shoulder, which was empty but must have something lying on it. He stopped talking halfway, as if he remembered something. This made Victini, who was about to show up, confused and at a loss.
After a moment of suspicious silence, Luo Mu, remembering Victini's poor control of the output of his moves, silently gave up the idea of letting Victini light a fire.
Luo Mu was afraid that if he asked Victini to light a bonfire with a spark, Victini would not be able to control the output of infinite energy and directly create a big fireball for himself to set the camp on fire. That would be a lot of fun.
"Dragonite, lend me a fire."
In the end, Luo Mu still called out Dragonite.
Just like Pikachu's 100,000 volts can be turned into 0.0001 volts, Dragonite's jet of flame can also be turned into a jet of flame.
Pokémon can control the output power of their moves, instead of just using moves with fixed power rigidly.
A perfect spark spewed out of Dragonite's mouth, and the bonfire was immediately lit. Under the endless night sky, the fire representing the beginning of human civilization was ignited, bringing warmth and dispelling darkness, cold and wild beasts.
Lying on Dragonite's soft belly, Luo Mu gnawed the sandwich that he had prepared and put in his space backpack before departure, and looked into the distance.
"Huh?"
After swallowing the last bite of the sandwich, Luo Mu stood up under Dragonite's puzzled and cute eyes and looked in the direction he came from.
At some point, the figures of the group of Dream Song Cacti had completely disappeared.
Did they give up?
Luo Mu thought about it. The field of vision was wide here, and those guys couldn't dig holes to attack him like ground-type Pokémon.
They should have given up, but. The fact that they gave up before he released Dragonite still puzzled Luo Mu.
Since they are gone, forget it. Even if they are waiting for an opportunity in the distance, Luo Mu will let the Pokémon take turns to guard the night, and the Dream Song Cacti will not have any chance to attack.
Thinking of this, Luo Mu took a sip of water to moisten his lips, took out a hard-bristled brush from his backpack again, came to the side of the heavy mud horse, and began to brush its fur after running all day.
Compared with the soft brush, the heavy mud horse obviously prefers the hard-bristled brush. While Luo Mu was brushing its fur, it slightly squinted its eyes and made a humming sound that represented comfort. Its ears, which were almost as long as a rabbit, trembled slightly, and it looked very comfortable.
In this hot desert full of dangers, such a leisurely combination is really weird.
People who don’t know would think that Luo Mu was out for a picnic.
At this moment of peace and quiet, the heavy rumble of the engine broke the tranquility. Luo Mu, who was already a little sleepy, raised his head and looked at the place where the sound came from, with a surprised expression.
Is it another trainer or explorer?
Luo Mu forced himself to be alert and stared at the huge dark green off-road vehicle. Seeing its driving trajectory, it was obviously heading for his camp.
Is it in need of food and supplies, or looking for companions?
Or
Many possibilities emerged in Luo Mu's mind, but after the four huge tires of the off-road vehicle braked, the driver and a gray-furred upright Pokémon with a crimson mane on its head got off the driver's seat and the co-pilot seat of the off-road vehicle, the answer was clear.
"Teacher Leihe?"
"Hey, isn't this the hero who saved the Orange Islands, Director Luo Mu?"
".Don't call me Director!"
