"Ahem, let's get back to the topic."

He coughed twice and said seriously, "Since we have already figured out the rules, there is no need for us to confront those Pokémon statues head-on. We can use Porygon's teleportation to take away the luggage first, then we can go back to the first floor through the trap, and finally run out through the door opened by the sandstorm. Isn't it simple?"

"Ooh!"

Alice understood and nodded quickly with the two Pokémon.

Due to various reasons, Porygon's instant movement cannot cover distances that are too far or too far to be seen in time, otherwise Kashiwagi and Alice could have waited for it directly at the exit.

But even if this is not possible, the content of the plan can be considered child's play.

But the question is whether there will be some annoying changes in the middle, and whether it can be carried out smoothly...

Kashiwagi looked at Alice and Axetooth Dragon carefully. The latter two looked confused, as if there were question marks on their heads.

"what happened?"

"fine."

He decided to take some extra precautions, "Let's be prepared."

"Is there anything else you need to prepare?"

"Of course, route maps, mobile phone signals, the timing of opening doors and everything else that can be prepared should be done in advance to avoid mistakes in the actual operation."

The string of nouns made Alice dizzy.

Although she is not as reckless as Xiaozhi, she seldom makes such detailed plans. She usually just sets a goal and then rushes towards it.

For example, after seeing Rayquaza, he wanted to chase its back, so he came to the Hoenn region.

I want to become stronger, so I challenge powerful dragon tamers and trainers everywhere.

Therefore, this was her first time to experience such an operation that was planned from beginning to end——

Feeling not bad?

It's just too troublesome. She definitely won't be able to do it herself.

the other side.

Kashiwagi wrote down the detailed plan in his sketchbook.

He had previously agreed with Steelix to call to remind it, and to ensure that it could open the door in time, he planned to make the call as soon as Porygon took action.

This way they can drop all the way down to the first floor and then go around to the front where the door opens, and the timing should be just right.

"This is the route, do you understand?"

Kashiwagi drew a route map in his sketchbook and said to Alice in front of him.

The latter glanced down at the sketchbook and nodded seriously, "I understand!"

"...Can you really understand it if you watch it backwards? And you only took a quick look. You were just looking at Porygon the whole time."

"I-I'm not stupid! One glance is enough! I have a good sense of direction!"

"So you were walking in the opposite direction outside before?"

"It's just a small mistake! Why are you always nitpicking about it? You're an adult after all!"

"Okay, I was wrong."

He didn't continue to argue with a twelve-year-old kid, and said, "Let's practice it. This way it will be safer and avoid mistakes."

Alice responded angrily.

Really, why do you assume that she will definitely get lost?

Although... she really forgot the route at this moment, but that was because of the quarrel, she had already memorized it!

The two returned to the stairs on the fourth floor and began the exercise without stopping.

then.

Then Alice ran blatantly in the wrong direction and almost triggered a Pokémon statue. Fortunately, Axetooth reacted quickly enough to notice that Kashiwagi was standing there and grabbed her in time.

"ah!"

Alice fell on her butt due to inertia and turned her head quickly. She immediately found that Kashiwagi was looking down at her with a condescending look.

"If you go another thirty centimeters, you will be able to trigger the mechanism. Congratulations."

The latter clapped softly.

"...Uuuuuuuuuuuuuuuu."

Alice said frustratedly: "I'm sorry~"

Seeing this, Kashiwagi stopped arguing and said, "Since you don't know the route, just follow me closely and don't run alone."

She nodded quickly.

-

Formal action.

Kashiwagi held the phone with the call interface on it, and stood at the stairs waiting with Alice and Axe-Tooth Dragon.

Porygon looked at the luggage in front of him, then glanced at the surrounding situation, and finally his eyes met with the trainer.

"start!"

He gave the order and pressed his finger on the call button.

beep!

Porygon leaned over and grabbed the luggage. Its block-like body shook violently, and it suddenly disappeared from the spot and appeared next to Alice in an instant.

The latter quickly took the luggage, and the ground on the fourth floor began to shake. Ancient armor and cradle lily stone statues emerged from the surrounding walls, and in an instant there were dozens of them!

But at this time, Kashiwagi and Alice had already turned their heads and slipped away, running towards the established falling trap.

"Angled!"

He shouted, and Porygon immediately turned into a hammer and flew over, smashing the cracked ground with a bang, allowing the two to jump down smoothly.

A height of only four or five meters is really nothing to people in the Pokémon world.

Repeat on the second floor.

In less than two minutes, the two of them had arrived in front of the "gate".

The door has not been opened yet, but the sound of wind and sand raging outside can be faintly heard. It is not as terrifyingly quiet as before.

"Huh~ They seem to still be on the fourth floor."

Alice exhaled and looked up at the ceiling.

The feeling wasn’t so obvious when she was making the plan, but the actual action was a real shock to her soul.

If she had come back alone to pick up her luggage, she would probably still be chased and attacked by a large number of Pokémon statues, and would have to be lucky to reach the bottom in time.

At this time, not only was he distancing himself from the Pokémon statues, he was also about to get out.

This was incredible to Alice, who was always busy.

Amazing!

She looked at Kashiwagi with eyes full of admiration.

And if the latter knew what she was thinking at the moment, he would probably just wonder how many unreliable people she had met to make her think that such a cautious little plan was so amazing.

"The door is open!"

Kashiwagi shouted, causing Alice to quickly come back to her senses.

I saw the originally solid earth wall suddenly collapse into sand and transform into a portal emitting dazzling white light.

The door is open.

The Pokémon statue...is nowhere to be seen.

The two took one last look at this magical phantom tower and walked out.

A flash of white light appeared in front of my eyes, and a sky full of yellow sand came into view. A little further away on the high slope was the sandstorm-making machine Steelix. When it saw the trainer coming out, it immediately stopped its lateral rotation of the steel skeleton and swam towards this side twisting and turning.

Alice waved to it happily, "Big——"

Suddenly.

With her strong sixth sense, she subconsciously turned her head and saw the huge phantom tower collapsing and shattering from above, with gravel falling down like a wall.

Boom!

"Danger!"

She, who always acted faster than she thought, took a step forward and even wanted to grab Kashiwagi's hand, but there was no doubt that she could not avoid him with the speed of her legs.

"Hold on tight! Move at high speed! Gyro ball!"

With an urgent cry, she felt her arm being suddenly pulled and placed on something smooth, and then her body was suddenly pulled away by a huge force. A silver light flashed in front of her eyes, and the horrible roar sounded in her ears again.

Ouch!

Alice looked up and suddenly saw the giant Steelix rotating its horizontal steel skeleton to smash the sand and gravel that fell on them. She looked down and found that her hand had grabbed Porygon's tail without her knowing.

Kashiwagi held Porygon's foot with one hand and Axetooth's dart-like tooth with the other.

next moment.

They successfully arrived outside the collapsed range of the Phantom Tower. Porygon swung its tail suddenly as if drifting and stopped on the high slope, allowing the two people and one Pokémon dragging it to the ground.

Thick smoke and dust rose straight into the sky, but a huge silver shadow could be seen moving in it.

Both Kashiwagi and Alice breathed a sigh of relief after surviving the disaster.

"Are you okay?"

"It's okay, thank you!"

The two checked each other's condition, such as whether they were injured or not.

The Phantom Tower collapsed too suddenly. To be honest, Kashiwagi originally thought that after the fossils left, it would disappear again like in the game, but he didn't expect it to collapse directly.

Fortunately, Steelix and Porygon are here.

"Your driving skills are getting better and better?"
