Chapter 1336: X-bat and Killua
Chapter 1336: X-bat and Killua
"So how do you plan to deal with the Naughty Thunder King? Not to mention the Naughty Thunder King, even the ordinary Naughty Thunders and Thunderbolts around it will release terrifying electric shocks once they get close. If you get close easily, you will be blown to charcoal."
Su Bai touched his chin and said, "Perhaps we can use the elves to explore the way first. Do you have a ground-attributed elf?"
"No, I specialize in supernatural ghosts and have never cultivated elves with other attributes. So do you have any?"
"Good question... I don't have any either."
Then why are you bringing this up?
Xing Moli rolled her eyes speechlessly.
Although the two were sitting in the same carriage, most of the time they turned their heads away to look at the scenery, and played with the elves in silence.
They soon arrived at the foot of Tiangong Mountain, which is a continuous mountain range. Originally, the two wanted to fly directly to their destination, the ancestral temple of Fenghuang City, but they encountered an obstacle before they got halfway.
"Is this... a thundercloud?"
Su Bai and Xing Moli looked at the rumbling dark clouds in the sky, both with solemn expressions.
For most trainers, the biggest and most unpredictable enemy in the wild is not the various powerful Pokémon Kings, but the various extreme weather conditions.
Just like the thunderclouds in front of them, even the endless foothills of Tiangong Mountain seemed to be covered by a black curtain.
There were streaks of lightning as thick as tree trunks shuttling back and forth in it, and each flash was accompanied by deafening thunder, as if to suppress all living beings in this world.
"Gah-"
The Steelix, which was originally flying steadily, gradually fell from side to side. As a flying Pokémon, it was most afraid of this kind of thunderous weather.
The same is true for ordinary trainers. If they are hit in the air, unless they are real newbies, the end result will be fireworks in the air.
After discussing it, the two decided to go downstairs and talk first.
Found a cave to stay in.
Looking at the thunderclouds outside, Su Bai asked casually, "Has the weather always been so bad in the foothills of Tiangong Mountain?"
Xing Moli shook her head and said, "No, although the foothills of Tiangong Mountain are surrounded by mountains and the temperature difference is large, I have never seen such a large area of thunderclouds as this time."
"Is it because of the Naughty Thunder King?" Su Bai speculated.
Xing Moli said it was possible, but she should first find the local manager to find out the details.
The manager of the field at the foot of Tiangong Mountain is called Shaoyao. She is a trainer directly under the Phoenix City. She brings a group of trainers and stays here for a long time to worship the Elf King Great Nura.
Just like Song Jizhi who looks after the Elf King near Qingzhu Village.
The Great Ora she looked after was one of the few Elf Kings who was not implicated after the Elf King's riot.
Su Bai: "..."
If I'm not mistaken, then Daxiula should be carrying a poisonous stone tablet, but the poisonous stone tablet was taken away by the dust mountain, so Daxiula certainly won't go berserk.
"Let's go. I remember the route in this cave."
It must be said that it makes sense for Fenghuang City to send Xing Moli to lead the way. In this cave that is as dark as the belly of a giant beast, Xing Moli's spirit can provide a light source - the will-o'-the-wisp of the dream demon.
Moreover, her sense of direction is also not bad. In this rugged cave, she can always find the correct route by relying on tiny traces.
For example, traces on the cave walls, or marks left by some elves on the walkways.
"Remember this and follow this path in a straight line. You should be able to reach the exit. It's just strange..."
Xing Moli reached out and touched the cave wall, frowning and whispering, "Normally, this route is regularly maintained, with torches set up at regular intervals. But now there are no burning torches or even residues on the wall. It's very likely that something happened to the team stationed here..."
Before she could finish her words, Xing Moli saw Su Bai suddenly pounce on her.
Xing Moli didn't have time to react as the strong masculine scent filled her nostrils.
Xing Moli was panicked and thought to herself, could it be that this guy has finally revealed his true nature because there is no one around?
"Su Bai! You bastard..."
Just as he was about to start cursing, two extremely sharp air blades slashed towards him from where Xing Moli was standing.
"Crack!"
Stone chips flew everywhere, and two deep air blades instantly appeared on the cave wall.
The curse that was about to hit Xing Moli's lips suddenly stopped, and was replaced by a feeling of fear.
"Is this... a crossbat?"
"Baduo!"
A four-winged bat that looked several sizes larger than an ordinary cross-bat was not far away, and it was shouting at Su Bai and the others with red eyes.
The sound of the bat flapping its wings in the dark is very small, almost inaudible to ordinary people. Even if it flies past them, they may not be able to notice it. Many elves will be bitten on the back of the neck by it without any reaction, and their blood will be sucked dry in an instant.
"Still just a small boss."
Su Bai quickly propped up half of his body, his eyes fixed on the fork-bat leader not far away. His tone was solemn, but more of it was the calmness before a battle. In a flash, Meow Meow and the Magic Masked Meow hidden in the dark were like two flashes of lightning, with agile postures and extremely tacit movements. When their bodies crossed, they simultaneously emitted a sharp chop, with a sound of breaking wind, and landed heavily on the fork-bat leader. The fork-bat leader suffered tons of damage in an instant, his body trembled violently, and fell heavily to the ground with a hissing sound.
However, before completely losing its combat capability, the X-bat emitted an ultrasonic wave.
In an instant, a burst of intensive "patter patter" flapping sounds came from deep in the cave. A large group of Zubats were attracted by the ultrasound waves like a tide and rushed towards this direction rapidly.
"run!"
Su Bai pulled Xing Moli up and ran towards the exit that Xing Moli had pointed to without hesitation.
Xing Moli was suddenly pulled up by Su Bai and couldn't help but run after him. She looked at Su Bai's determined back, then lowered her head to look at his hand holding hers. She had an inexplicable expression on her face, and her heart seemed to be gently touched by something. In this extremely tense moment of escape, she actually felt several different emotions.
……
"call……"
The two men leaned on their knees and gasped for breath.
At this time, they had already escaped from the cave entrance. Outside the cave, thunder was still rumbling, as if it would fall on their heads at any time. But thanks to the thunder, those flying Zubats were very scared and did not dare to leave the cave at will.
"Ok?"
Suddenly Su Bai's expression changed slightly. He raised his head and looked in one direction, just in time to see a fleeing figure.
Su Bai felt familiar with this figure. Wasn't he the profiteer Killua?
Ever since the incident with the Wandering Chamber of Commerce, this guy has gone into hiding and cannot be contacted no matter what. Although Su Bai thinks that he may not be in the same group with the Wandering Chamber of Commerce, the fact that he appeared here and ran away as soon as he saw them is very telling.
Without saying a word, Su Bai immediately chased after him.
