Chapter 392: I Think You're Getting Carried Away!
Chapter 392: I Think You're Getting Carried Away!
Hoenn, Kanto Town.
As soon as they approached Chimney Mountain, they could feel a warm breath of air, instantly dispelling the winter chill.
Kanto Town's hot springs are quite famous throughout the Pokemon world.
After all, most hot springs in other places are dormant volcano hot springs, remnants of extinct volcanoes.
But Kanto Town's hot springs are genuine active volcano hot springs, said to be richer in active elements.
Upon arrival, Teacher Jinghe first bought some local snacks for the little ones.
There was no choice; it had been a long time since they last visited, and the little ones had their eyes on them immediately.
However, from a distance, Teacher Jinghe observed that Chimney Mountain didn't seem to have any issues.
It continued to spew volcanic ash, which looked overwhelming and a bit scary, but in reality, there was no substantial harm.
In fact, not only did it not cause any harm, but these volcanic ashes also "cared" for many plants on the mountain, making the soil more fertile and the forest resources richer.
Akiba Town is the biggest beneficiary of the volcanic ash.
Moreover, many places collect large amounts of volcanic ash to make various tools or glass products, such as the Hoenn Region's Glass Workshop.
They are skilled in using volcanic ash to create various tools, like the "Glass Whistle."
This is similar to the Crown Mountain in Sinnoh.
The only difference is that Crown Mountain is covered in ice and snow, while Chimney Mountain spews volcanic ash.
"That's right. If the problem with Chimney Mountain is visible from the foot of the mountain, then the Hoenn League's higher-ups should be here instead of me," Teacher Jinghe thought.
After all, Chimney Mountain is too important to the entire Hoenn Region, both in terms of geographical location and significance.
If a significant crisis erupts from Chimney Mountain, it will require the attention of the entire region.
"Teacher!"
Before long, Da'ou and Yasha found him.
The three sat down in a dessert shop.
After a brief exchange, Teacher Jinghe learned the general situation from the two.
Yasha, when free, likes to stroll up Chimney Mountain; it's one of her interests.
Da'ou, on the other hand, went to the top of Chimney Mountain to dig for stones in places ordinary people wouldn't go.
Then, the two met unexpectedly, and experienced some events, like the wild Pokemon on Chimney Mountain leaving their habitats.
Don't underestimate wild Pokemon migrating from their habitats; this often indicates abnormality.
Compared to humans, wild Pokemon that inhabit a place for a long time are more aware of environmental changes and won't leave easily unless necessary.
However, if it's just this, it's not too bad.
The two also encountered attacks from wild Pokemon.
The wild Pokemon that attacked them were in a very agitated state.
Although they didn't reach the level of near-total loss of control like Camerupt, they displayed an abnormal or anxious agitated state.
This made the two suspect that there might be another wild Pokemon going berserk inside Chimney Mountain.
After listening to their story, Teacher Jinghe immediately decided, "Are we going now?" Yasha asked excitedly.
No, why are you so excited?
Teacher Jinghe crossed his arms and, after a moment of contemplation, said, "Since it concerns Chimney Mountain, if the situation is not right, we should report it to the League as soon as possible."
"Teacher is right," Da'ou agreed.
"What about the battle plan?" Yasha looked at Teacher Jinghe. "We might encounter wild Pokemon attacks again, and there might be some particularly strong ones."
Teacher Jinghe had already considered this and said, "You should be the best at dealing with Fire-type Pokemon. You take the lead."
"Me?"
Yasha blinked and then nodded, "Alright."
Her Flame Mare has the Flame Body ability and can indeed help deal with sudden Fire-type attacks.
Seeing Yasha's honesty, Teacher Jinghe suddenly had a flash of someone else in his mind.
If that person were here, the outcome might be better.
Oh well.
If all else fails, there's Da'ou's Invincible Super Groudon.
"Let's go."
Hoenn Region, Chimney Mountain.
As the sun set in the west, Chimney Mountain remained a fiery sight.
Occasionally, one could see leaping flames in the volcanic crevices and the spewing gray smoke.
"Was the magma inside the volcano this active before?" Teacher Jinghe asked suddenly.
He remembered that when they arrived, there weren't any flames coming out of the cracks, at least. "The magma in Chimney Mountain is intermittent. Although it's currently in a more active volcanic phase, it does seem a bit too active," Yasha said, frowning.
Even the wild Pokemon inhabiting Chimney Mountain don't all enjoy contact or proximity to magma.
Some prefer the surrounding temperature, while others are only interested in the rich mineral resources on the volcano.
Da'ou frowned.
"So, the problem might be inside the volcano?"
He exchanged glances with Teacher Jinghe, and both thought of the same existence.
The legendary Pokemon residing in Chimney Mountain, Sido Lane!
"I know a path that leads inside the volcano!" Yasha led the way with her Flame Mare.
The True Pioneer.
If Groudon was truly slumbering within Chimney Mountain, Sido Lane shouldn't be residing there. Despite being a mass-produced legendary Pokemon, it's still a legendary.
Aside from Moltres, who would willingly live next to Groudon?
Is it because, as a crater Pokemon, it doesn't spew fire?
"Be careful," Jinghe warned.
But being cautious is never wrong.
"Rotom, initiate data monitoring," Jinghe instructed.
"Understood, Rotom!"
Inside Chimney Mountain.
A wave of heat rushed towards them.
The trio navigated through a path surrounded by scorching lava, their vision almost entirely engulfed in fiery redness.
The surrounding magma continuously surged, bubbling with thick froth that burst, instantly forming a scorching white smoke that emitted a searing heat.
Jinghe kept Gramps obediently within his shadow, and with Rotom floating around, the temperature became more bearable.
Yasha and Da'ou, however, were already drenched in sweat.
Ghost-type Pokemon are indeed adorable.
"Teacher!" Yasha took a deep breath, wiped the sweat from her forehead, and said, "Your assessment is correct. The magma inside the volcano is overly active, and this path wasn't this narrow before."
The surging magma around them had already submerged most of the rocks, making the path even more rugged and winding.
This was crucial information.
"Moreover, there's hardly any sign of Magcargo or Magmar here," Da'ou said solemnly.
Jinghe understood the implication of his words, and his expression shifted slightly as he slowly closed his eyes.
Wave Guide, the power within the heart!
Buzz—
Like activating a radar, as the Wave Guide power expanded, images appeared in Jinghe's mind.
Gurgle—
The surging magma became increasingly active, and pebbles crumbled from the walls, falling into the magma and quickly disappearing.
Rumble!
A tremor from deep within the magma echoed faintly, and Jinghe's eyes snapped open, uttering a single word.
"Run!"
Yasha and Da'ou exchanged a glance, not daring to hesitate for a moment, and the trio sprinted towards the path's entrance.
Behind them, the magma surged, rising like a wave, instantly engulfing the path.
It was foreseeable that if the trio had moved any slower, escaping from under this magma wave would have required even more effort.
The entire cave shook violently, and rocks of various sizes rained down from above.
"Groudon!"
"Bear Pupil!"
Da'ou and Jinghe spoke almost simultaneously.
Buzz—Buzz—
Two red lights shot out.
Shining Groudon swung its heavy metal hammer at the falling rocks above, shattering them, and its eyes glowed with the power of psychics, tossing the scattered debris aside.
The Bear Pupil that appeared before Jinghe punched with a serious expression, shattering the obstructing rocks and forcefully clearing a path for their retreat.
"Roar—!!!"
A terrifying roar echoed from behind.
The terrifying body, bathed in magma, had already climbed to the crest of the magma wave, like a surfer riding the crest of a wave.
Under its command, the magma surged towards them.
Indeed, it was Sido Lane!
Although they had some suspicions, seeing this guy still surprised them.
No.
The last time Sido Lane seemed quite friendly, but why had it become so irritable this time, even launching an attack without hesitation?
Jinghe's Wave Guide clearly sensed Sido Lane's anger.
"What's that?!"
Da'ou and Jinghe knew about Sido Lane, but this was Yasha's first encounter.
The terrifying aura and scorching waves made her keenly aware of how unapproachable this guy was.
"Roar!!!"
With Sido Lane's roar, more rocks tumbled down.
"You guys lead the way, I'll try to communicate with it," Jinghe said gravely, summoning his Wave Guide power once more.
"Huff!"
Bear Pupil's expression turned solemn as he shattered the massive falling rock before him.
But after breaking the rock, he realized that the magma within the entire cave, influenced by Sido Lane, not only surged in the center but also formed smaller waves around the edges.
Even the passage they had entered was now half-submerged in magma.
Bear Pupil tightened the headband on his forehead, clenched his fists tightly, and his eyes flashed with determination.
The magma wave was still a wave, and no wave could stop him! He took a deep breath, and the scorching breath entered his lungs, tensing his muscles instantly. He swung his fist with determination.
Wave Break!
Open!
Boom!!
A path was carved through the magma.
At the same time, Jinghe's Wave Guide power connected with the enraged giant.
"Sido Lane!"
The voice resonated within its mind.
The response, however, was...
Sido Lane: Rejected!
Jinghe: "."
I think you're itching for a fight!
