The strange cry was filled with anger.
In the light of the burning insects, Xia Chan saw huge iron-clawed lobsters wearing bright red armor rushing out of the darkness angrily and rushing towards him.
In addition to its huge claws, the five-pointed star on its head and the blue pattern on its chest are also its symbols.
These guys are naturally irritable, like to fight, and will provoke fights at any time. They are considered to be elves that are difficult to cultivate.
Xia Chan frowned as he watched the lobsters that kept appearing.
Are you a bully who only bullies the weak and fears the strong?
To be honest, Xia Chan didn't believe that this group of lobsters would dare to be so arrogant when the explosive mosquitoes were around.
But just after the explosive mosquito was subdued by himself, this group of lobsters came out.
The Ultimate Beast appears with the Ultimate Aura.
My cell phone lost signal just now because of the ultimate aura.
I think the appearance of this group of Crawlters is because the Ultimate Aura disappeared after the Blastinger entered the Poké Ball.
Of course, although the lobsters are reckless and aggressive, they are by no means fools.
When they were still some distance away from the summer cicadas, they opened their iron claws, and countless bubbles flew out of their claws and densely hit the summer cicadas.
It was still the Knight Snail and the Agile Bug who took action.
The Knight Snail casts [Acid Bomb], continuously spitting out purple energy balls from its mouth, and the Agile Bug fires [High-Speed Star].
All of a sudden, the three energies collided with each other in their different forms, causing a violent explosion, and a large amount of smoke and water vapor filled the pit.
Xia Chan didn't want to waste time. At the moment of the explosion, Beedrill and Scyther broke through the smoke and rushed into the group of lobsters.
The two sides soon fought together.
But to be more precise, it should be a one-sided crushing. The Beedrill, which is at the peak of the quasi-king level, is simply not something that the group of lobsters in front of them can resist.
"He actually knows how to hide his strength."
Xia Chan soon discovered a lobster that was also at the peak of the Quasi-King level. It came out from the depths of the pit and immediately confronted the giant bee that was killing everyone.
This lobster is very large, twice as big as other lobsters.
I think he should be the leader of this group of lobsters.
The Beedrill and the leader of the iron clawed lobster collided with each other, and the violent impact caused them to retreat a long way.
Just as the leader of the iron-clawed lobsters had stabilized its body, balls of dark purple mud spurted out of its iron claws. This was the poison skill [Mud Bomb].
Such a distance and such dense sludge are difficult for ordinary Pokémon to avoid, but for Beedrill, it is not difficult.
Xia Chan's training of Beedrill mainly focuses on speed and attack power. Although Beedrill's speed is not as fast as Genesect, it is definitely far ahead of other Pokémon.
Just as the lobster leader was about to enjoy the miserable sight of his enemy being defeated by him, a sharp pain came from the back of his neck.
The leader of the lobsters felt dizzy and almost fell down.
poisoned!
The [Poison Attack] of the Beedrill directly triggered the additional effect, and the lobster leader who loved playing in the mud knew that he was poisoned.
In fact, as a combination of insect and poison attributes, Beedrill will not suffer any damage even if it withstands the [Sludge Bomb] of the Ironclaw Leader. However, Xia Chan's Beedrill is definitely a cool-headed Pokémon, and it will never get carried away easily if there are better options.
This is the difference in personality between elves.
Seeking benefits and avoiding harm is something a tribe leader must master.
At this time, the leader of the iron claw lobsters had begun to have the idea of retreating. It commanded the other iron claw lobsters to surround the giant hornet, while it retreated step by step into the darkness.
The giant hornet wanted to chase after it, but there were too many lobsters surrounding it, so the lobster leader retreated for a while. When the giant hornet broke through the lobster group, the leader was nowhere to be found.
When the lobsters saw that their leader had retreated, they stopped fighting and quickly evacuated.
At Xia Chan's signal, the insect elves stopped attacking and waited for the lobsters to leave. When the last lobster was about to leave, Xia Chan led the insect elves to follow.
These guys completely forgot what it meant to “the monk can escape, but the temple cannot” and they were so busy retreating that they didn’t even think about the enemy catching up with them.
In fact, this is also the habitual thinking of the lobster clan.
As one of the groups of mosquitoes kept in the pits, they would only catch a few and enjoy them before ignoring them. They would never cause trouble in the lobster's nest.
The goal of the summer cicada is to find the nest of this group of lobsters directly.
Although the evolutionary conditions of the iron-clawed lobster family are relatively simple, their strength must at least reach the elite level to complete the evolution.
With such a large number of lobsters and a quasi-king-level lobster leader, it can be seen that the overall qualifications of this group should be not bad.
Although he didn't have a scanner with him, Xia Chan was very sure of his judgment.
So, the summer cicadas and insect elves quietly followed the group of fleeing lobsters, trying to find their habitat with their help.
The summer cicadas and the insect elves followed the lobsters around a fork in the road, and finally saw them come to a puddle, then they jumped into the puddle one by one and disappeared.
"Under the puddle?"
Xia Chan found that he seemed to have miscalculated. He did not expect that there would be a waterway on the lobster's retreat route.
The puddle in front of us is the only way forward because there is no road ahead.
So, the helpless summer cicada could only lead the insect elves back the same way, return to the fork in the road just now, and prepare to change direction and continue moving forward.
However, before Xia Chan left, he asked Chongjiasheng to mark the puddle where the iron claw lobster disappeared, and planned to find time to block the iron claw lobster clan...
Chapter 445: Summer Cicada's Lament
Dark and humid caves are always the favorite environment of bat-like elves.
As expected, Xia Chan encountered some Zubats and Golbats as he moved forward.
These guys without any meat on their bodies are not on the Explosive Mosquito's menu at all. At least Xia Chan didn't see any corpses of Zubat or Golbat in the pond.
The flames of the burning insects and fire centipedes disturbed these guys living in the dark. Frightened, they woke up from their peaceful hibernation, and the harsh ultrasonic waves pierced the eardrums of the summer cicadas like silent spikes.
This was a counterattack from Zubat and Golbat as a response to Xia Chan and his group for disturbing their sleep.
At the same time, the Burning Worm took action with the Knight Snail and the Agile Worm.
The melodious sound of insects chirping rang out in the pit, spreading like ripples in circles into the depths of the pit.
The chirping of insects offset the sonic attack of the ultrasound, and Xia Chan's ears finally felt a little better.
Soon, the supersonic bats and big-mouthed bats with fluttering wings appeared in front of Xia Chan and his party, and the knight snail and agile worm immediately stepped forward to fight.
The Knight Snail brandished two knight lances that flashed with cold light, blocking the enemies in front of him one by one, with a momentum of one man blocking the pass and ten thousand men unable to pass.
Agile insects are like assassins, adhering to the concept of killing with one strike and escaping thousands of miles away, constantly causing damage to the enemy with extremely agile movements.
"If you two are interested, you can go up and have some fun."
Seeing that the Knight Snail and the Agile Bug were gradually taking control of the situation, Xia Chan looked at the two little transparent ones huddled in the corner.
The Iron Ninja and the Shelled Ninja had been in the team for a short time, but it was definitely not a short time. Although they were elite-level, their presence was always low.
It’s not that Xia Chan intentionally ignored them, but the two Pokémon, Iron-faced Ninja and Shelled Ninja, are a little different from other insect-type Pokémon.
Although the Shedding Ninja has insect attributes, the ghost attribute is more dominant in its body.
Unlike other insect-type Pokémons, it does not take the initiative to get close to the summer cicada. Instead, it is more like a lonely ghost that is isolated from the entire insect swarm.
The situations of the Iron-masked Ninja and the Shelled Ninja are different.
The Iron-Faced Ninja is a real bug-type Pokémon. Like other bug-type Pokémon, it has an attachment and intimacy with the summer cicada, which has the power to control insects.
However, as an elf born from the same body as the Shedding Ninja, it has a strong brotherly affection for the Shedding Ninja.
The younger brother is dull and unsociable, so as an older brother, the Iron-faced Ninja naturally wants to take care of his younger brother.
Therefore, over time, the Iron-masked Ninja, like the Shell-Shelling Ninja, also became somewhat unsociable.
It’s not that it doesn’t want to be sociable, but that it wants to take care of its younger brother’s emotions.
For the Shell-Shelling Ninja, Xia Chan's words were like an order to himself. He rushed through the Knight Snail's defense at an extremely fast speed and followed the Agile Bug to learn its attack methods.
Seeing this, the Iron-faced Ninja immediately followed.
In fact, the Iron Ninja is more compatible with the attack style of the Agile Bug than the Shelled Ninja. With the [Acceleration] feature, it quickly increased its speed to the maximum, and carried out its attacks with ease among the Zubat and Golbat groups.
The attack of Knight Snail was powerful and coupled with the flexible attacks of three Pokémon including Nimblebug, it soon defeated the Zubat and Golbat groups and made them flee in all directions.
However, Xia Chan did not take the opportunity to subdue those Zubat and Golbat that had lost their combat effectiveness. Firstly, this clan had already been included in the Chinese version of the atlas, and secondly, without a scanner, he could not distinguish the qualifications of the elves.
Of course, if there is a final evolved form of this species of cross-bat on the ground, Xia Chan will capture it without hesitation.
This was the first time that the Iron-faced Ninja and the Shelled Ninja participated in a field battle, and they performed very well, at least Xia Chan himself was very satisfied.
After the battle, Xia Chan stroked the two little guys who had returned from the battle and gave them full affirmation.
The Shelled Ninja, whose heart was calm, was still as calm as ever, and the Iron-faced Ninja, whose heart was filled with surging emotions, was still as surging as ever.
The author of the dog who is always watery is still as watery as ever.
In short, everything is so harmonious.
Xia Chan felt some emotion in his heart as he felt the responses from the Iron-faced Ninja and the Shelled Ninja.
Now he could fully understand why the United League issued regulations regarding the six-Pokemon configuration for trainers, because even if he possessed the power of Insect Control, facing so many Pokémon, he would sometimes find it difficult to cope and resist.
This is still my own bug in the right direction.
Xia Chan currently has a total of twelve main combat elves, divided into three echelons.
The first echelon is led by Beedrill, and includes five quasi-king-level Pokémon, including Scyther, Claw, Spinner, and Incinerator.
The second echelon is led by the Insect Armor Saint, including three gym-level Pokémon including Knight Snail and Agile Bug.
The third echelon is composed of elite elves including the Iron-faced Ninja, the Shell-shedding Ninja and the Fire Centipede.
Of course, Genesect is a special existence and is not among the three echelons.
Xia Chan glanced at the fire centipede hanging on the axe mantis.
Speaking of which, the Fire Centipede should be able to evolve soon.
In fact, the Fire Centipede had already met the conditions for evolution when it was at the peak of the ordinary level, but Xia Chan deliberately delayed the evolution time of the Fire Centipede based on Qu Bu Tong's suggestion.
The Fire Centipede is a Pokémon with both insect and fire attributes. After joining Xia Chan's team, it has been focusing on the cultivation of insect attributes, and most of the energy it replenishes is insect attribute energy.
