Chapter 439 The Awakening of Wujitana, the Beginning of the "Dark Night"!
A deafening roar, far louder than any ordinary flash of lightning, exploded.
A dazzling golden bolt of lightning, crackling with blinding arcs of electricity, struck down without warning above the battlefield.
A thick bolt of lightning struck the pale blue energy barrier that rose at the edge of the battlefield.
The solid energy barrier began to fluctuate violently, rippling outwards in layers of waves.
The sidelines were completely silent.
Sonia and the researchers stared in disbelief as the energy reading on the monitor spiked to an astonishing value and then slowly dropped back down.
A hint of surprise flashed in Xia Chi's eyes.
Although this bolt of lightning... or rather, in its Dynamax form, which had mutated into Max Lightning, was far less powerful than Victini and the others' full-force Thunderbolt.
However, considering that it comes from a companion Pokémon that has hardly undergone any serious battle training, the increase in power is already terrifying.
That wasn't the end of it. Just as that dazzling, massive bolt of lightning crashed down, the scattered golden arcs of electricity on the battlefield rapidly spread and intertwined.
Within just two or three seconds, the entire standard battlefield was covered by a layer of strange, pale golden light.
Electrical site!
The secrets of Dynamax are indeed far more than just a simple increase in size and amplification of move power.
It can also cause variations in the form of moves, and even bring about special changes in the terrain that directly affect the environment.
"It's...it's a success! Not only has the attack power reached 195% of its normal level, but the attack form has also undergone an unexpected mutation!"
The researcher in charge of energy monitoring was the first to recover from the shock, his voice trembling with excitement.
Sonia also recovered from her initial shock. She looked at the golden light flowing on the battlefield, both surprised and delighted, and subconsciously turned to look at Xia Chi beside her.
"Teacher Xia Chi! This... Electric Field, do you know what this is all about? Can Extreme Energy trigger this kind of chain reaction?"
'
Xia Chi: "
'
No, do you think I'm a Pokémon encyclopedia and ask me everything?
Although he did know the various functions of Dynamax moves, Dynamaxing had only just been discovered in this world, and it would be unreasonable for him to tell everything in detail.
"Perhaps it's a special reaction triggered by Dynamax energy?"
Xia Chi suggested, "Why don't you try letting the dog use skills of other attributes? Maybe it will bring different special effects?"
After speaking, Xia Chi turned around and waved to Millerton, who had been obediently staying behind him.
"Hey, don't hold back, go up and help out. Let's test out some Dynamax moves with Yamper."
Upon hearing this, Millerton's pair of electronic eyes, flashing with pixelated light, widened instantly. His massive metal body visibly shrank back, his head shook like a rattle-drum, and a low, gurgling sound of resistance came from his throat.
The pixels in the electronic eye even pieced together to form a pitiful emoticon: "(;A「)".
Xia Chi was speechless for a moment.
No, buddy!
You're Milton!
A paradoxical legendary Pokémon from the future!
A genuine first-class divine combat power!
That Dynamax Yordle over there, even if you combined the fighting power of its ancestors for eighteen generations, probably couldn't even scratch your skin. What are you afraid of?
If you let a massive lightning bolt strike you all day, it probably wouldn't even be able to polish you!
This isn't just a cowardly lizard, this is a complete coward!
Xia Chi really wanted to pry open its metal skull to see if it was full of cowardly worms.
"Stop talking nonsense and get up there!"
Xia Chi glared at it irritably, then used her trump card, "Hurry up and go upstairs, or you won't get any dinner tonight!"
Milton's massive body visibly stiffened for a moment.
The pitiful expression in the electronic eyes was instantly replaced by a complex struggle.
On one hand, there's the potential for embarrassment; on the other, there's the certainty of a food shortage crisis...
Between being beaten and going hungry, it ultimately chose to be beaten.
"Hiss..."
Millerton let out a resigned cry and reluctantly moved his limbs to leap onto the battlefield, standing on the glittering, electric field.
It even subconsciously raised one of its front paws to protect its head, looking like a coward saying, "Go easy on me."
Seeing this, Sonia couldn't help but chuckle, then quickly suppressed her laughter and looked up at the Dynamaxed Yggdrasil, issuing a new command: "Yggdrasil! Use Swift!"
This companion-type electric dog's skill pool is indeed quite shallow; besides lightning, it only has high-speed star and affection.
"Woof!"
Dynamaxed Electivire obediently gathers its energy.
Instead of flashes of lightning, countless specks of ordinary energy light gathered around its enormous body.
These points of light did not scatter like typical high-speed stars, but instead quickly converged into a thick, solid torrent of energy, rushing towards Millerton, who was in a defensive posture opposite them.
Max Attack!
When Millerton saw the massive torrent surging towards him, he instinctively curled up his entire body.
However, its excessive defense is entirely unnecessary.
The surge of energy struck it, causing only a slight sway in its massive body, without causing any substantial damage.
The gap in strength is like an insurmountable chasm.
However, after the energy torrent completely dissipated, Miltona's metal body surface seemed to be covered with an extremely faint dark purple halo, as if it were gently covered by some kind of invisible dust.
Sonia immediately moved closer to the observation instrument, looking at the fluctuating data on the screen, and muttered to herself, "The direct damage from the energy impact is negligible... but Millerton's energy readings show a slight decrease of about 1% in its velocity-related parameters? Is this a side effect of the high-speed star? Reducing the opponent's speed?"
Xia Chi nodded. "It seems so. Normal-type Dynamax moves might have the added effect of lowering the opponent's speed. Based on this, perhaps Dynamax moves of different types, in addition to potentially causing different changes in the terrain, might also have different stat-lowering effects? This requires testing with more type moves to verify."
Sonia nodded vigorously, her eyes shining even brighter with research, eager to explore more possibilities: "Electric woof, next try being cute!"
She wanted to see what kind of amazing effects a Fairy-type Max Move would bring.
As the Dynamaxed Wang Yiyan appeared, its enormous body slightly twisted, and pink Fairy-type energy began to gather.
However, just as the fairy energy began to condense, a sudden change occurred.
The strange energy aura surrounding LaiDianWang, which maintained its enormous size, suddenly fluctuated violently. Its massive body seemed to lose its support and began to shrink rapidly at a visible speed.
In just a breath or two, the enormous figure, comparable to a building, vanished.
In the center of the battlefield, only the ordinary dog that had returned to its normal size remained, seemingly still somewhat bewildered.
The Dynamax state has been deactivated.
Sonia's excited expression was replaced by a hint of regret. She sighed, "Is the duration over already? It's shorter than I expected... only enough for two Dynamax moves."
Xia Chi stepped forward, bent down and patted the little head of the running dog, comforting it, "It's already very good. Compared to last time when it could only last five seconds, it can now stably support two complete Dynamax moves and the corresponding field effects. This is a huge improvement. The energy transfer efficiency and technology optimization still need time."
He offered words of comfort, but a hint of doubt flickered in his mind.
According to the game's mechanics, one Dynamax should be able to support three Dynamax moves.
Is it that energy consumption is greater in reality?
Or is it because the extremely high energy concentration and purity provided by the meteorite sample are still insufficient to support longer-term consumption?
Or perhaps the Giant Gauntlets aren't perfect yet?
Before Xia Chi could think it over, Sonia had already composed herself and regained her enthusiasm.
She looked at Xia Chi, her eyes shining with eager anticipation: "Teacher Xia Chi, why don't you let your Pokémon try out Dynamaxing too?"
As she spoke, she unhesitatingly took off the prototype of the giant wristband from her wrist and handed it to Xia Chi.
She was very curious about what kind of earth-shattering power Xia Chi's powerful legendary Pokémon or champion-level main force would unleash after Dynamaxing.
Xia Chi nodded readily in agreement.
He was equally curious about this issue.
I reached out and took the wristband, which was still warm to the touch; it felt cool and smooth.
"Okay, let's give it a try."
He even had a plan for who would try Dynamax for the first time – it would definitely be Magic Mask Meowth!
Imagine a giant cat, over ten meters tall and with an elegant posture, looking at you with disdain through its crimson eyes hidden behind a mask, while gently stepping on you with its black-stockinged paw...
Wait, stop!
I'm not Fu Rui, so when did I start having such strange associations?
Xia Chi quickly shook his head to dispel the overwhelming shock of the scene.
Let's stick with Martial Arts Master Xiong.
In the original world, Urshifu is one of the very few Pokémon that possesses the special form of "Gigantamax".
He was eager to see if, in the real world, when Ursaring Gigantamaxed, it would retain its ability to switch freely between "one-hit" and "combo" attacks.
With his mind made up, Xia Chi held the Maxim Bracelet in one hand and reached for his waist with the other, preparing to take out Urshifu's Poké Ball.
Just as his fingertips were about to touch that familiar high-end ball.
"Xia Chi, hurry back to Quan Guan City."
Rashiram's cool and composed mature female voice suddenly rang in his heart.
"That guy's energy aura... is starting to surge."
Xia Chi's heart skipped a beat.
Is Loz's plan finally about to begin?
Rahiram would never joke about something like this.
Rahiram would never joke about this, and judging from her tone, the situation was rather critical.
Xia Chi immediately shouted at Milton, who was still pretending to be dead in the center of the arena, "Milton, come here, take me back to Quan Guan City!"
Millerton, who had just breathed a sigh of relief because the test was over, was startled by Xia Chi's urgent command and felt a jolt of electricity run through his body.
"Gaho—"
—"
Millerton sensed Xia Chi's emotions, instantly switched to a serious expression, and the blue light in his electronic eyes surged.
Its massive body swept across the battlefield like lightning, creating a violent shockwave. In the blink of an eye, it was already lying prostrate in front of Xia Chi, the riding saddle on its back automatically popping out, the engine humming, ready to go.
Xia Chi didn't even have time to properly explain to Sonia before he shoved the still-warm giant wristband into his coat pocket and leaped onto Millerton's back.
He turned to Sonia, who looked completely bewildered, and quickly threw out a few words.
"There's an emergency in Hammerlocke City, I have to get there immediately!"
Sonia opened her mouth, "Wait, Teacher Xia Chi..."
Xia Chi interrupted her, adding urgently, "We'll discuss the specifics after this is over. Remember, Sonia, leave Waterboat Town immediately, as far away from Quan Guan City as possible. Notify Dr. Mulan and the others!"
After saying that, he raised his hand and patted Milton on the head.
The latter immediately understood, pressed down with its limbs, and the thrusters suddenly erupted with an extremely dazzling blue-purple plasma torrent, the powerful recoil blasting a shockwave across the ground.
In the next instant, its figure transformed into a bolt of lightning that tore through the sky, launching off with a terrifying initial speed that was almost like teleportation, and hurtling toward the direction of Kensei City.
All that remained in the testing grounds was Sonia, her clothes disheveled by the strong wind, and a group of dumbfounded researchers.
Sonia, standing behind him, watched the streak of lightning in the sky quickly shrink into a small black dot before she had time to finish the rest of her sentence.
"What I meant was... I still haven't received my Max Gauntlets..."
But at this moment, she also sensed the seriousness of the situation from Xia Chi's serious and urgent tone.
Without hesitation, she turned around and shouted to the researchers, "Quickly, gather the critical data and samples, and notify Lulina and the Alliance officials in town to prepare for a temporary evacuation!"
The tranquility of Shuizhou Town was completely shattered.
Milton's full speed is a concept that most Flying-type Pokémon can only dream of.
It pushed the power of the paradoxical engine from the future to its limit, so fast that it even left a clear vacuum trail in the clouds along its path.
Xia Chi kept his body low to the ground. The oncoming gale was like a solid wall. If Millerton hadn't used his energy field to offset most of the impact, he probably wouldn't have been able to open his eyes.
The Galar landscape below swept past rapidly, towns, roads, wilderness, rivers... everything in sight turned into blurry blocks of color.
In less than half a minute, the distance spanning tens of kilometers was swallowed up by this terrifying speed.
The iconic modern industrial style of Hammerlocke City is already clearly visible.
What's even more striking is the sky northeast of Motogakushi City, over what should be a suburban wilderness area.
At this moment, the area was shrouded in a thick, impenetrable cloud of purple energy.
The clouds were not formed naturally; they seeped up from the depths of the earth, rising, churning, and surging, with the central area being a deep, almost inky black color.
Even though they were still some distance apart, Xia Chi could feel the familiar yet strange energy fluctuations in the air, which were countless times more violent and intense than ever before.
It belongs to the energy of the infinite!
"We've arrived! We've landed in the open area outside the factory!"
Xia Chi pointed out.
Millerton made a sudden stop and turn, the lightning around him slightly subsided, and he swooped down toward a relatively flat open space at the edge of the area shrouded in crimson sky.
The four legs landed steadily, kicking up a cloud of dust.
Xia Chi quickly jumped off Millerton's back, his feet landing firmly on the ground.
He looked up at the massive underground energy factory in the distance. At that moment, the factory complex itself seemed to be trembling slightly, countless lights were flickering, and the piercing alarm could be faintly heard.
Meanwhile, the crimson clouds in the sky were spreading outwards at a visible speed, like a giant mouth slowly opening.
Without the slightest hesitation, Xia Chi reached down to his waist and threw out all the Poké Balls he carried with him.
A series of dazzling white lights flashed continuously across the open space.
Magical Masked Cat, Kumashiro, Latias, Urgot, Victini, Dragonite...
Xia Chi's core lineup, except for the three sacred birds he just brought who are still at the hotel being looked after by Uniqlo, is almost entirely here.
Without Xia Chi issuing any specific instructions, the elves, upon appearing, immediately understood the gravity of the situation from the suffocatingly dense crimson-purple energy in the air and began to strengthen themselves.
Magic Masked Meow's gear shift, Dragonite's Dragon Dance, Latias's Quiver Dance... even Victini started meditating in a seemingly serious manner.
Brilliant lights, representing various enhanced abilities, suddenly lit up one after another on this open space shrouded in an ominous crimson hue.
All the spirits are adjusting themselves to their peak condition as quickly as possible.
Taking advantage of the precious break while his teammates were intensively preparing for the battle, Xia Chi quickly pulled out his Rotom phone from his pocket.
Although distant water cannot quench immediate thirst, such a significant change must be reported to Galar's champion, Dante, immediately.
"Rotom, call Dante immediately!"
"Understood, Loto is calling for Champion Dan!"
The Rotom phone responded immediately, and the dial pad appeared on the screen.
"beep..."
The brief wait sounded incredibly long to Xia Chi.
After two rings, the call didn't connect. Instead, a cold, mechanical female voice said, "Hello, the number you dialed is not in service..."
99
Summer Pond:
'
'
No, are the infrastructure things of you Galatians really that bad?
A cell phone can have no signal!
But he also knew that now was not the time to complain.
Dante and Master Masde ventured deep into the Misty Forest in search of Zacian and Zamazent, a place shrouded in ancient mists and legendary power, where signal blockage was not entirely impossible.
Xia Chi said helplessly, "Forget it, Rotom will leave a message for me to tell Senior Brother Dandi that Loz has started to take action. We'll handle the rest ourselves."
"
"Understood Loto! Emergency message encapsulation in progress... Sending procedure initiated!"
The phone's Rotom screen flashes as it executes a command.
Xia Chi ignored Dan Di and looked up, his gaze sweeping over his companions who had all completed their enhancements and whose auras had reached their peak.
All the elves' eyes eventually focused on Xia Chi.
Xia Chi looked toward the factory, which was shrouded in a surge of crimson energy.
