Chapter 190 The Whereabouts of the Ancient Slipper Snail
Chapter 190 The Whereabouts of the Ancient Slipper Snail
“Kou Jie”.
Gengar faithfully fulfilled its duty of translation.
But the translated content made Oni's eyes light up slightly.
"You said that a great disaster once occurred in the north of the forest, in which many Pokémon died and the forest was extensively destroyed?"
Sarud nodded: "Sarud".
"The forest was completely dead, as if something had sucked away all its life force, and the Pokémon died from the same cause."
"You're looking for that Pokémon, but it's disappeared, leaving only a strange ruin in that destroyed forest?"
Gui Hai processed this information and exchanged a glance with Yao Ran, who was not far away.
Yao Ran immediately replied, "I did find a ruin there, but the trees have grown back and it's not desolate."
This is normal; although the forests have been severely damaged, nature is always evolving.
It's not difficult to make trees grow back on barren land.
Some ordinary Pokémon can do that.
"Zarud, have you noticed anything unusual in this forest lately? Have you sensed any very strong Pokémon?"
Zarude did not answer, her gaze wandering over the Pokémon in the Ghost Sea.
Gui Hai immediately added a condition: "Not including us."
Sarud immediately looked away, thought for a moment, and then pointed in the direction from which Ghost Sea and the others had come.
“Saru”.
"You sensed a familiar and powerful aura at the edge of the forest? When you went over, you encountered humans capturing Zoroa? You thought they were causing trouble, so you attacked them?"
Guihai thought of the battle scars and felt there was nothing wrong with it.
Luan Lie is a Dark-type Elite Four member, and Zarud is also Dark-type, so it's normal that they feel familiar.
However, Guihai felt that there were still some problems with the matter.
He lowered his head and thought for a moment, then suddenly thought of a possibility and asked Zarud in a fast-paced voice.
"When you say 'familiar,' do you mean you're simply familiar with the power in that human, or do you feel a sense of familiarity with it, as if it were your own power?"
Sarud slowly uttered two syllables.
Tell Guihai, it seems to be the latter!
Gui Hai immediately perked up.
It seems to be the latter.
Zarude is a legendary Pokémon of the Dark and Grass types. Although this one is relatively peaceful, a group of Zarude is still a dark force in the forest.
It is the representative of Dark-type Pokémon.
The Ancient Snails that Guihai and Yaoran are looking for are also Dark/Grass-type Pokémon.
It's still a typical Calamity Pokémon.
This is very similar to Zarud.
Sarud just said that it sensed a presence that resembled its own over there. Does that mean that the Ancient Snail has moved to the south of the forest?
Gui Hai shared his thoughts with Yao Ran.
She thought about it for a moment and agreed that it was very likely.
The two immediately decided not to head north to find the remains of the ancient snail, but instead to head south to check out the forest there first.
The ancient snail is now injured, and without human healing medicine, it needs some tree fruits and herbs to recover quickly.
They could definitely start their search for this legendary Calamity Pokémon from these angles.
Leave some medicine and fruit for Sarud.
Gengar delivered some Power Cubes, and Ghostsea, Yaoran, and Zoroark, who naturally followed, headed south.
......
By the time they got back on the road, Zoroark had almost fully recovered.
Emerging from the shadowy world of the ghost sea, I walked alongside him.
"Thank you very much this time, human trainer."
Guihai glanced at the arrogant fellow, assuming he had been brewing this thought in the shadows for a long time before finally uttering the words that he didn't know.
However, Guihai simply doesn't like interacting with people; it doesn't mean he lacks emotional intelligence or didn't expose the fox demon's shortcomings.
Instead, they looked at the map in the Alliance Encyclopedia, searching for areas marked by the Alliance that were rich in herbs and fruits.
He replied casually, "I promised you, so of course I'll keep my word."
Zoroark opened its mouth, trying to find a topic to talk about, but suddenly it realized it couldn't think of anything suitable.
And so, an awkward silence fell over them.
Guihai pretended not to see it and pointed to a location on the encyclopedia map.
"There used to be a grove of fruit trees here. Could you go and check it out for me? Be careful."
Zoroark looked down at his position and nodded: "Okay."
It then naturally transformed into a fierce bird, flapped its wings, and flew away.
Guihai nodded slightly as he looked at Zoroark's transformation ability.
"This is a top-tier assassin. We can speed it up and teach it some of Gengar's skills. It will definitely be able to outmaneuver others."
With that in mind, Guihai quickly turned his attention to which resources would be most suitable for Zoroark at this moment.
Zoroark doesn't yet possess the strength of an Elite Four member, but its powerful ability makes it more formidable than most Gym Leaders.
Moreover, it has more than enough practical experience; what it lacks is scientific training and a special mastery of a certain force.
Gui Hai was confident and gave him a month.
He could then rapidly grow this regional Zoroark to the Elite Four level.
At that time, Zoroark won't need to deal with Luan Lie anymore, and he won't need to guide himself and Yao Ran over.
I can solve it myself.
As for Zoroark's child, Zoroark.
The shimmering Zoroa, Ghost Sea glanced slightly at the ground.
Through the shadows, he could see that Doronmesia seemed to really like the child.
Following the example of Gengar's older brother, he took Zoroar to play wildly in the Shadow World.
He also shared his snacks and toys with little Zoroya.
Little Zoroah seemed to find it amusing and actually transformed into the appearance of Doromecia.
"Let Gengar take good care of it, but Dragapult seems to be about to evolve."
Muttering something to himself, Guihai continued to look down at the map.
Yao Ran hung up the communication with the champion and walked to within two meters of Gui Hai.
"The champion said he has already notified the Alliance town near this forest to help organize the data. They know more about this place and will provide us with some intelligence later."
However, they weren't strong enough to come and guide me themselves.
"Yes, it's right that they didn't come."
This forest is inhabited by Sarud and the Ancient Snail, and there might be other dangers as well. It's best not to enter if you're not strong enough.
The two chatted casually.
Suddenly, a whooshing sound rang out, and a Pidgey transformed back into Zoroark above Ghost Sea and the others, then rolled forward and landed on the ground.
"Ghost Sea, I've found some clues."
As Guihai watched Zoroark's movements, he suddenly felt they looked familiar and wanted to confiscate something.
In the Shadow World, Rotom sees Doronmesia bringing Zoroya to return a comic book and is delighted to have found a friend with the same hobby.
