This elf world is kind of weird

Chapter 187 Legend of the Sundial: Guidance of the Evolution Stone (7000)

It was getting late, and on the way from the Gymnasium to the sundial, pedestrians and tourists gradually became rarer, and when we encountered them occasionally, they mostly returned from the continental shelf where the sundial was located towards the city, and it was quiet.

Not quite, though.

"It turns out that Brother Philio and Lord Gargihua have known each other for a long time. No wonder she is so happy and kept us all in the dark~!"

The outspoken Carrie patted Filio's shoulder carelessly, she didn't look out at all, and her voice was not low enough that passers-by could hear it from a long distance away, and then she cast a surprised look.

"Carrie, speak lower." Ge Jihua looked helplessly at this disciple who had never let her worry, and reminded softly, "Don't make loud noises in public places, learn from Xue Ruier and the others."

"Oh……"

Carrie lowered her head aggrievedly, not daring to talk back, curled her lips, and stopped speaking.

"Miss Carrie is also outspoken, and there is nothing wrong with that."

Fillio smiled and tried to smooth things over, and Carrie immediately beamed with joy, and kept saying "yes, yes", which made Xue Ruier, who was leading the way, full of black lines.

"Boom"

"You idiot!"

The cylinder of the travel brochure was knocked down hard, and Carrie's face turned redder than her hair.

"You hit me again, Cheryl!"

"If they are half of you, I will be relieved!"

Seeing the two who were gradually falling behind, Ge Jihua sighed helplessly and looked at Philio.

Among the apprentices he valued most, Lionel was too reserved, Carrie was reckless, and the best chief apprentice, Sheryl, looked more stable than Carrie, but in fact they were not much different.

Thinking of Yingxue and Biyi's gym apprentices who have nothing to say about their strength and character, and looking at Philio who can be said to have witnessed the growth by herself, Ge Jihua has a deeper understanding of what it means to be more popular than a deadly person.

Philio shrugged: "Maybe it's because the seniors are too big to take care of everything, so they don't feel any sense of urgency? But I think it's good, at least it won't be boring, right?"

In the middle of speaking, he looked at Lionel, who was following silently not far away, and then at Xue Ruier and Carrie, who had already decided the winner, and suddenly remembered something.

"Speaking of which, senior, I met a superpower who has not fully awakened not long ago. She is very strong and a nice person. Can you let her come to the hundred-time gymnasium to practice?"

"Eh?"

"Ah?"

Sherrill, who was pressing Carrie's head and banging it incessantly, raised her head and looked at Filio in confusion. Carrie underneath her had the same expression.

"Who is it, well... woo woo woo!"

Carrie, whose eyes lit up, was about to speak when she was grabbed tightly by Sherrill and blocked her mouth.

"Aren't there any fully awakened superpowers? That sounds interesting." Ge Jihua slowed down a little, and looked at Philio with interest, "If you can say that the power is very strong, it should be true It's simple, is it your friend? I have to say, I'm already a little interested. Tell me in detail."

"A friend? Hmm... Although it feels a little weird, but it's okay." Philio thought for a while, and replied in a complicated tone. Then he changed the subject, and his playful eyes glanced at the three who were also paying attention to him. , "As for her abilities...it's still very interesting."

"Transfer Pokémon to my side, reduce the sense of presence... Isn't this the poacher configuration? Ouch! Xue Ruier, you hit me again!"

After listening to Filio's introduction, the straight-tempered Carrie clapped her fingers and muttered. As expected, she got slapped again and looked at Sherrill aggrievedly.

Lionel thought for a moment and asked curiously: "It does sound like a very strong ability. I think it hasn't been fully demonstrated yet, right? Blanche... I seem to have heard of this name, but I can't remember it." .”

"What Lionel said makes sense. According to Philio's description, it should be a superpower related to space. Because it was not fully awakened, it showed the way it does now."

Holding her chin thoughtfully, she rummaged through her complicated memory for a long time before Ge Jihua opened her mouth slowly.

Even she wasn't entirely sure.

But such a special form of super power undoubtedly aroused the interest of this super master. His deep purple eyes fixedly looked at Philio until he felt a little hairy, and Ge Jihua smiled and looked away. , whispered:

"Since Phileo is trustworthy, let her come, but whether she can stay or not depends on her, the way of life is created by herself. Well, let's not talk about these, it is the first time you see The night view of the sundial, right? We need to speed up the progress."

The last ray of sunlight disappeared on the horizon, and a cold night enveloped the city.

Pink sundial crystals appear at the end of the field of view.

It's just that in the haze, compared with the daytime, it has some unusual changes at this moment.
-
Unlike the bustle of people during the day, there were almost no people in Sundial Square at this time.

There is no other reason. Starting from 7 o'clock in the evening, this square composed of a continental frame will be closed for management. Tourists from all over the country must leave in advance. Only those with special approval can be exempted.

Although this magical natural creation has become the symbol of the Hundred Years and the largest tourist attraction, the Carlos Alliance, who is well aware of its mystery, is still prepared for in-depth research and security.

However, such restrictions obviously do not exist for Gejihua.

After a few words of communication, the conscientious security guards of the square chose to let a few people pass, even if they saw a strange face like Philio, they didn't ask much.

On the giant pink crystal, the golden rings rotated one after another, but surprisingly there was no sound. It was like a flawless and precise machine running spontaneously without any loss or friction.

In mid-air, countless light spots fell from the sky, landed in the huge lake and the flat square ground, and disappeared, neither like matter nor energy, even superpowers could not capture the existence of these light spots.

The calm lake surface is slightly rippled, and circles of water patterns spread outward. From time to time, one or two wild Pokémon will poke their heads out to take a look at the super-large sundial that has been with them for countless years, but there are also Get close, just take a look, then shrink back to the bottom of the water.

Walking in the empty and quiet square, looking at everything that happened in front of me, the mental power that had been honest for a full month after seeing Chaomeng seemed to be slightly active again.

It was obvious that most of it had been transformed at that time, but looking at it now, it seems to be different.

If the spiritual power before was like a broad lake, clear and calm, then now it seems to have become a deep pool, deep and mysterious, just like after removing the waste and retaining the essence, what remains is small in quantity but poor in quality. An essence that cannot be compared with the previous one.

The internal and external changes were superimposed, and an inexplicable restlessness rose in Philio's heart, making him feel as if there was a fire burning in his chest.

"Compared to the day when you first came here, it's quite different, right?"

Having seen such scenes in countless studies, Gejihua was already used to it, but she could still empathize with Philio's surprise and curiosity at this moment.

The first night she took over as the gym leader, she also wore this expression and accepted the teachings of the previous gym leader. The shock at that time is still fresh in her memory.

Thinking of this, her heart moved, she retreated the three people behind her without showing a trace, and walked forward side by side with Filio, towards the magical and mysterious sundial crystal.

Standing under the crystal, stroking the cool little branch, Philio was silent for a long time before slowly opening his mouth: "It is indeed very different, full of unknowables, as if there are many secrets that are completely beyond our understanding, not only Not able to understand, not even sure that our perception is correct."

"Unknowable? Indeed." Ge Jihua nodded slightly, stretched out her palm, and caught a light spot that fell from the sky, but there was no response. "Its history may even be longer than ours. Mysterious, mysterious, but just beautiful. I remember you told me that your superpowers come from the knowledge of these novel things, would you like to listen to me tell you about the sundial? Maybe it will help."

"Then please seniors."

Drowsy and meeting the pillow, Ge Jihua's proposal fit Philio's mind, and he hurriedly nodded in response.

This was exactly the opportunity he had been dreaming of.

"Heh, you are the one who doesn't see the rabbit and doesn't scatter the eagle." Seeing that Filio agreed happily and put on a good student, Ge Jihua covered his mouth and chuckled, "Alright, then I will tell you about it." Well, the secret of the hundred quarters is also the secret of Carlos."

Based on the expedition team's repeated in-depth explorations, combined with the true "living fossil" of Carlos today, the story of the wise king AZ from 3000 years ago, the alliance deduced that the appearance of this crystal was between 8000 and [-] years ago at the latest. , as for the longer past, it has become a foggy era that no one knows.

However, unlike the well-known legends in the streets and alleys, this huge pink crystal that has been regarded by the Kalos as the most accurate time-telling tool is not a meteorite that fell from the sky.Below it, above the earth and rock formations, there was no sign of impact or compression.It's like appearing in this giant lake out of thin air.

For countless years, it has stood in the center of the lake like this forever, without any changes during the day, but after nightfall, such changes will appear in just one or two hours.

In recent years, Dr. Bratano has come here many times for investigation and research. Although there is still no progress, at least he has confirmed and confirmed a statement from AZ: the fluctuations emitted by this huge spar every night , is directly related to the mega evolution of Pokémon, and the life form corresponding to such fluctuations is very different from modern Pokémon, but closer to many fossil Pokémon or ancient Pokémon specimens.

In a sense, this may confirm an academic speculation that has long been debated, that is, the result of mega evolution is that some qualified Pokémon, with the help of trainers and special props, temporarily return to their ancestors and possess some The power of ancient Pokémon.

Such power has naturally attracted the attention of all parties.The Kalos Alliance, major research institutes, and even the Fradali Research Institute, which was at its peak in the early years, and the Flare Team behind it, have invested a lot of energy in the hope of thoroughly studying the crystal without fully utilizing its mysterious interior. As long as something can be gained from the power of it, it will definitely be a breakthrough change.

It's just a pity that even AZ, which surpassed human intelligence 3000 years ago, could not read anything from it. It only drew some inspiration from the energy that escaped every night, adding a key element to the "ultimate weapon".

Even if AZ's extraordinary wisdom is like this, contemporary people are even more like tigers eating the sky, with nowhere to eat, and looking at the eternal crystal, they are helpless.Countless attempts were made in vain.

Not only the analysis of the internal energy of crystals, but also research on other aspects has made little progress.

The reason for such changes in the sundial crystal is still a complete academic blank. No one can explain the composition of the spontaneously rotating golden metal rings and light spots in the sky. Their existence is even more mysterious than the crystal itself.

After a long period of research, there were very few answers, and the few that were there only caused more confusion.

Over time, the research enthusiasm around this magical crystal has gradually declined.

The Carlos Union has reduced the allocation and only put a blockade on the crystal.

Seeing that they were unable to produce results, major research institutes quickly changed their directions and turned a blind eye to this.

The Flame team, which was originally full of enthusiasm, had no energy left after the Fradari Institute was shut down.

Now, there is only Baike's local research institute left, and Bratano, who has been tireless about it, will often come here to monitor, trying to find some new clues, but almost every time he returns without success.

A huge treasure mountain visible to the naked eye is right in front of you, but people are always unable to get in, which has to be said to be a great pity.

Speaking of this, Ge Jihua also seemed much lowered. As the leader of the Baike Gym who has witnessed the rise and fall of sundial research, her feelings about these things are far beyond what any outsider or ordinary participant can understand.

Including Filio, who knew a little bit about this series of events in advance.

Compared with Gu Jihua's emotion, Philio, who listened to her narration of legends and research, thought a lot.

The memory of this mysterious sundial in the past life and the results of many researches in this life have been combined. The two blended together and brought a lot of inspiration, but they eventually turned into chaos and turned into a complicated sigh.

"Why, do you feel sorry for this too?" Hearing Philio sigh, Gejihua thought he was feeling sad for his own weight. She warmed up in her heart and comforted her with a smile, "There's nothing we can do about it. We should neither be impatient nor depressed about our problems, we will always find a way in the future, after all, nothing can block our way."

As if that wasn't enough, she patted the irregular crystal bulge and said in a slightly raised tone: "Besides, we didn't get nothing. Don't you want to know what other magical places there are here? Pass over your bracelet. "

As she spoke, she stretched out her hand, palm up, and looked at Filio encouragingly.

"wristband?"

Philio thought of something, frowned slightly, but still rolled up his sleeves obediently, revealing the keystone bracelet on his left wrist that he had been wearing since the day he set off.

"You must be wondering, why can't it be done during the day? It can only be done now, right?"

Seeing through Filio's careful thinking at a glance, Ge Jihua raised his eyebrows with a half-smile, and with a light tug, he pulled Filio over.

"Everyone only has one chance, so let's experience the supernatural magic. Big mouth kid, come out too!"

With a gentle press of the big hand transformed from super power, the elf ball on Filio's waist quickly bounced away, pulling the confused big-mouthed kid to Filio's side.

"Qido...?"

The face of Big Mouth Baby, who had been dozing off since the battle, was full of confusion and confusion. He still didn't know what happened.

"It's still too early for mega evolution for crustaceans, but Big Mouth Baby is just right. Philio, Big Mouth Baby, concentrate and don't let go!"

Without waiting for it to react, Ge Jihua grabbed it and Filio's wrists one by one, and gently leaned the two together.

Soft fingertips lightly touch the keystone containing unknown power.

"Qi... Qiduo?!"

With an exclamation, colorful phantom light shot out from the keystone, reflected on the huge corona, flickering endlessly.

"Swish"

The huge crystal lights up instantly, like a lighthouse in the dark.

All the light spots in the sky disappeared, and the rotating ring quietly stopped.

Everything fell into a stillness, only the beam of light that soared into the sky exuded a mysterious aura that pointed directly at the origin of life.

The invisible repulsive force centered on the keystone on Filio's wrist and spread instantly.

In the blink of an eye, Gejihua was pushed back and forth until it was more than ten meters away before it came to a steady stop with the help of two super-powerful cats and a particularly muscular Slow King.

Obviously, this is not the first time for the three powerful Heavenly King Pokémon to experience such a scene. They quietly looked at the source of the repulsion without changing their expression or heartbeat.

There, Philio and Big Mouth Baby closed their eyes tightly, wrapped in colorful rays of light, and remained motionless.

The sparkling keystone exudes scorching heat.

"...Why is it so hot?"

The roiling heat wave rushed to the surroundings, making Ge Jihua frown slightly, and murmured.

Having guided dozens of trainers through this special ritual, she had never seen such a battle before.

According to past experience, the repulsion will only last for a moment, as long as you hold the opponent tightly and don't let go, it will be over.

Under the baptism of the light spot temporarily named "evolution particle", the partner who passes the test can perceive the corresponding mega stone with the help of the key stone.

This is a long-mature path, but suddenly there are moderate changes.

The dazzling colorful light, the long-lasting repulsion, and the raging heat wave.

Everything exceeded expectations.

"Shin"

"Smooth"

While Ge Jihua was meditating, the ring that was supposed to remain still turned again, and there was an unprecedented sound of metal friction.

Spots of light also descended from the sky again, but they were no longer brilliant golden, but mixed lights of seven colors.

"Lord Gejihua, what...is going on?"

The three people who were sent far away rushed over. Before they got close, Xue Ruier asked loudly.

Ge Jihua shook her head lightly, her tone was vague: "I don't know, but it shouldn't be a bad thing."

The starlight of superpowers has already diffused, and the star trail of destiny spreads out again, but nothing can be seen clearly.
-
warmth.

Very warm.

It's like lying on a kotatsu on a cold winter's day.

It's like just escaping from a dangerous situation and being held in the arms of your beloved.

In the colorful world, Filio lazily and reluctantly opened his eyes.

There is only light all around, no sky or earth, just light.

"Qi Duo!"

The big-mouthed baby seemed to wake up before Philio and was looking at him with concern.

A pair of small hands hugged Filio's arm tightly, his eyes slightly nervous.

"Don't worry, it's probably not bad..."

"Swish"

Just as he was about to comfort the big-mouthed boy who was stubborn on the outside but not so strong on the inside, the dazzling light shone into Filio's eyes, causing a stinging pain that blocked the rest of his words.

Maybe it's a few seconds, maybe it's a few minutes. In this strange world without any reference, time is meaningless.

After finally adapting to the sudden bright light, Philio managed to open his eyes and immediately caught the "culprit" - a huge evolution symbol.

"This……"

"Qiduo..."

Vaguely and hesitantly, one person and one Pokémon looked at each other, reading the same message in each other's eyes.

But in this empty world, they have no choice.

"Take my hand, let's go together, don't be afraid."

Hearing the sound comforting the scared Big Mouth Baby, Philio tried to step forward.

The big-mouthed baby's soft, boneless little hand was gently held in the palm of his hand.

With a light step on the foot, it is obvious that there is no point of support, but it still floats forward with ease.

The closer you get, the stronger the sense of calling and attraction the huge evolution symbol brings.

The impulse originating from the depths of their souls and life instinct made Filio and Dazuiwa involuntarily reach out and touch it at the same time.

"boom"

At the moment of contact, invisible explosions exploded deep in the minds of one person and one Pokémon.

In an instant, the world spun, and they lost consciousness at the same time, leaving only the twisted and collapsed unknown world.
-
When one person and one Pokémon woke up again, the first thing they saw was Gujihua's concerned eyes.

The soft touch under his body told him that this should be on a comfortable big bed.

"March!"

"Buy!"

The anxious Dream Demon and Sun Eevee rushed forward, asking and sizing anxiously.

"Are you awake? You've been sleeping for a long time. It's been two days."

Ge Jihua, with a tired face, heaved a sigh of relief, pretending to be relaxed and teasing.

"Has it been so long? I seem to have stayed in a very bright world with Big Mouth Baby for a short while, and then touched the pattern that is the same as the pattern on the keystone."

Gently pressing his temples, which were a little swollen and painful, Filio sorted out the chaotic and fragmented memories caused by drowsiness.

"Qi...Duo..."

While talking, the big-mouthed kid also woke up and was equally confused.

"Evolution pattern..."

Contemplating, Ge Jihua recalled the last scene of that day.

The ring that keeps clicking "clicks, clicks" seems like a machine that has been running for countless years and is about to be scrapped.

After shining for a long time, the huge crystal seemed to be a little weak, becoming flickering.

The colorful light surrounding Filio and Big Mouth Baby gradually converged, and finally turned into an extremely clear evolutionary pattern, which was integrated into the keystone on Filio's wrist.

Immediately afterwards, two gleams of light shot out from it, merged into the body of one person and one Pokémon, and disappeared.

After finishing all this, they immediately fell to the ground after losing consciousness, and were rescued by the super-powerful Miaomiao and Daidaiwang who had been prepared in a hurry, and hurried to the hospital.

This sleep is two days.

"So... Do you feel any different? I've been on the phone with Nazi and Korni for the past two days. If something happens, the two of them will hate me to death."

Ge Jihua sighed helplessly, feeling that she was aging a little too quickly, and her tone was particularly vicissitudes of life.

It was obviously just a small and logical ritual, but it became so complicated.

"A different feeling? No, right..."

Feeling the situation inside his body carefully, Filio frowned and shook his head.

"Except for a vague feeling, it seems to be... to the west! Very far, very vague..."

"Qi Duo!"

The same goes for Big Mouth Baby.

Not only did he not feel any special feeling, but he also appeared to be in excellent condition due to adequate rest.

The only special thing is that weak call.

"Huh...then it's okay." Ge Jihua's brows stretched, he showed a relaxed smile, he patted Filio's shoulder gently, and said softly, "This means that the ceremony is still a success. Congratulations to you, Filio, Mr. Mouth Baby. The call you feel is a mega stone belonging to Big Mouth Baby that has not been used by anyone yet."

"?"

"Qi Duo?!"

Philio's eyes widened. Although he had vague expectations, he still couldn't believe it when the good news actually came out.

Whether it is the memory of the past life or the knowledge system of this life, there is no such record at all.

"It's really rare to see you like this." With a gratified expression, she squeezed Filio's cheek gently, and Ge Jihua said with satisfaction, "I thought you always looked like you were confident, and you still look like this." Be real."

As she spoke, she stood up, walked to the other side of the hospital bed, picked up a pomelo fruit, and said while peeling: "This sundial has countless secrets, and we can only let it be for the time being through superficial cognition. We use it. Of course, this will inevitably lead to unexpected situations. Fortunately, you are safe in the end. Here, eat some fruit."

"Oh, thanks. I feel pretty good."

Philio took it casually and took a bite. It was sweet and sour and juicy.

Although there was a lot of commotion and there were many things that could not be explained, at least for the time being, it was considered safe and sound. It could even be said that there was some unexpected joy that I had never thought of before.

This sundial, which carries countless legends and holds countless secrets, has become his help at least at this moment.

The mega evolution that has been planned for a long time now seems to finally have a chance to be put on the agenda.

Thinking of this, Filio couldn't sit still or lie down. He just wanted to get to the place where the evolution stone was buried that was calling him and Big Mouth Baby as quickly as possible.

However, the experienced Ge Jihua had already seen clearly his little thoughts.

With a wave of his hand, the superpower pressed Filio onto the hospital bed.

"Observe for one more day and make a few phone calls~ Otherwise I won't let you go!"

Joking and playful, the eldest sister who knew everything showed an inscrutable smile.
