Kashiwagi felt inexplicably ashamed.
"I'm not surprised you think so."
She comforted him instead, "There are people who infinitely magnify the rights of the inheritors and ignore the responsibilities and obligations they need to bear, even among the people of Meteor. However, it is very sad that the treasures left by our ancestors have changed from technologies worth cherishing to classics..."
The People of the Falling Star are forgetting their ancient heritage.
Kashiwagi could understand Shijiana's thoughts. The latter was probably very worried that in a few decades, the Meteor People would be completely integrated into the outside environment and become indistinguishable from others.
How many ancient ethnic groups with long traditions disappeared just like that.
It’s not necessarily true that no one thinks it’s better to integrate, but it can be seen that at least Xijiana is quite resistant to giving up the heritage of the Meteor People. A staunch nationalist?
Fortunately, he was born in the mainstream area of the animation world and his personality is not extreme.
"I really hope that someone can share the responsibility of the successor with me, so that our tribe can continue until the end of history. This is more important than the so-called position of elder."
Xi Jiana said seriously: "If you are willing--"
"My goal is to return to Ourei to build the region and become the world champion. If I am lucky enough to become the successor, it would be a good choice to continue the Meteor Clan in Ourei."
Kashiwagi interrupted her and made no secret of his future plans, "I'll leave the position of elder to you. I think you're more suitable."
Xi Jiana remained silent in response, and after a few seconds she chose to pretend nothing had happened:
"The test of the successor is actually not that difficult. Just walk from the bottom to the top with your own feet and gain the recognition of Rayquaza."
Half a second ago, Kashiwagi's brain, which was immersed in a solemn sense of mission, suddenly froze.
"...Wait, got Rayquaza's approval?"
"Recognized by Rayquaza."
The wheat-skinned girl nodded as she repeated, "I don't think this will be difficult for you."
"I'm glad you have so much faith in me, but to be honest, I have no idea what I'm going to do to gain recognition from a legendary Pokémon."
Kashiwagi inevitably recalled the different-colored Rayquaza he saw on the plane. Just a close look at it almost scared him to death.
If the alien body is like this, what kind of deterrent power should the real third god of Hoenn have?
He always felt that this being called "Sky-Dragon" in Master Bao had a bad temper. Perhaps it was the multiple impressions left on him by the animated movie and the special.
Xijiana looked calm and said softly, "Just stand in front of it and tell it why you are here."
Kashiwagi worriedly asked, "Will it really listen to me?"
"Then how do you think our ancestors relied on to resist the war between super ancient Pokémon?"
"What if it's not here?"
"Of course, as long as you can reach the top."
"I now understand why you are the only one who passed the test and became the successor..."
"Relax, it's inevitable to be nervous. Just adjust yourself and get ready to go!" The heroic Miss Xijiana was already a little impatient.
Kashiwagi had no choice but to take a deep breath and walk towards the gate of the Sky Pillar.
Halfway through the walk, he turned around and said, "By the way, didn't you say there was a seal?"
"The seal is only for outsiders, the people of Meteor can come and go as they please - you'd better hurry, the Sky Pillar is much more dangerous after dark than during the day."
When Xijiana spoke, she looked like she was going to pull you in if you didn't come in.
What’s the hurry?
Kashiwagi sighed.
Chapter 484: Ghost Assassin
Go through the arched gate of the Sky Pillar.
Just as Xijiana said, a layer of turbulent waves suddenly appeared, indicating that the invisible seal did not hinder his progress.
After the scroll containing the "Blessing of the Ancestors", another thing proved his Meteor People ancestry.
Good luck tricks people.
Who would have thought that the wooden sign that was originally used to pretend to absorb new Pokémon would eventually evolve to this point and have an impact on his life.
Kashiwagi could feel the gentle gaze of Shijiana from behind, and suddenly thought that if he couldn't get in and was blocked outside by the seal, the scene would probably be very exciting.
"Ouch!"
As the three-headed evil dragon shouted, the scene in front of him suddenly turned dark, leaving only a few mottled rays of light shining through the cracks in the wall, faintly illuminating the road ahead.
A similar scene had been seen once before in the Phantom Tower, but the visibility of the Sky Pillar was obviously lower—
Because it's relatively not that broken.
However, when Kashiwagi wanted to complain about why Xiaozhi and his friends could see everything around them effortlessly after breaking into the ancient ruins, the wall suddenly emitted a thin light, as if there was luminous stone mixed inside.
Coupled with the eyes' adaptation to light, the Sky Pillar provided him with enough visibility to see most objects within twenty meters of himself.
Kashiwagi held the flashlight: "..."
Younger.
Sure enough, the creativity of the ancient meteor people was not something he could comment on.
He thought about it and gave up turning on the flashlight for the time being. The situation in the Sky Pillar was unknown, and if he could see clearly, why would he need to use a large light source to attract those lurking things?
Maybe there are some special guards here like in the Phantom Tower.
Speaking of this, his curiosity gradually arose, and he looked around and found that the interior of the Sky Pillar was not the building with clear layers and traps everywhere in the GBA Gem version, but was more like the Gem replica, a strange tower composed of countless fragmented floor slabs and thick triangular load-bearing columns.
A huge mural covering the entire wall, even beyond the reach of sight, came into view.
"Super Rayquaza..."
Kashiwagi murmured in a low voice. There was no doubt that the carving on it was the history of the ancestors of the Meteor People standing on the legendary boulder thousands of years ago and praying to Mega Rayquaza to stop Primal Kyogre and Primal Groudon from fighting each other.
The pattern is as abstract as ever, for example, Super Rayquaza's head is drawn as a straight triangle, its cheeks are covered with twisted fireworks that tear the sky apart, and its slender body is like high-altitude turbulence, but the overall charm is not lacking.
A solemn symphony seemed to ring in his ears, highlighting the sacredness of this place.
"How high does this have to be?"
He walked up to the mural and looked up, but the meager light was not enough for him to see the top of the tower. It was pitch black, like a bottomless black hole, swallowing up all light.
Just as he was curious, he suddenly lowered his head and pressed down the dragon's head that was trying to stick out from under his crotch, "What are you doing? I said you had to walk up with your feet, didn't you understand?"
"Ouch!"
The three-headed dragon confidently stated that he had not listened at all, and continued to work hard to carry the trainer on his back.
"Idiot, I said no!"
Kashiwagi was so angry that he grabbed its trumpet-like hair, covered its eyes and shook it left and right, but because the posture was too awkward, he gave up after trying twice.
He knew very well what the three-headed dragon meant - since Xijiana was outside and couldn't be seen, he might as well just rush up and be done with it.
But there is no point in this kind of deceiving yourself and others. It is better to just turn around and walk away and give up.
The three-headed evil dragon retracted its head and snorted angrily, making a nasal sound like the mooing of a cow. He was quite indignant that his bold and somewhat immature suggestion was banned.
In between conversations.
The two of them suddenly looked towards a corner at the same time.
In the shadow blocked by the pillar, a dark object stopped twisting, like an assassin caught in the act.
So the assassin went crazy.
"Bah!!"
The strong and dazzling flash brought a huge ghost shadow that spread to the feet of Cypress and the three-headed evil dragon. The ghost energy boiled and turned into ferocious ghost claws to grab the two!
[Flash] magnifies the shadow, and then uses the magnified shadow to perform [Shadow Attack].
What’s more, he can even combine tactics!
However, they were not standing there as sitting ducks for each other to shoot at. The moment they discovered the peeping man, the three-headed dragon flapped its wings and flew into the sky, while he grabbed the guy's "feet" and used it to get into the air.
The rising speed was very fast, so it successfully avoided the opponent's sudden attack.
"Ghost Face! Suppress it!"
When a Trainer and Pokémon are hit by a blinding attack, they cannot determine the type and specific range of the opponent. It is irrational to attack randomly, and they must buy time for the eyes to recover.
[Ghost Face] can do just that.
Sure enough, when the three-headed evil dragon showed an extremely ferocious and hideous expression, under the dual influence of emotion and energy, the other party further let out a panic cry.
"Dumb!" "Dumb, dumb!"
Two seductive eyes?
Kashiwagi quickly ordered, "Follow the sound - the wave of evil!"
"Ouch!"
The three-headed evil dragon raised its left and right heads, pointed its three mouths at the place where the sound was made, and transformed the evil energy gathered in its ears into light beams and shot them out!
rumble--! !
The entire Sky Pillar was reverberating with the sound of the light beam hitting the ground and exploding, and the screams of the two Haunted Eyes seemed to be drowned out.
The noise was quite loud.
Kashiwagi was helpless. Most Pokémon moves made quite a lot of noise, so it was impossible to be quiet.
He could only pray that he wouldn't attract more attackers.
As his vision gradually returned, he could clearly see behind the intact triangular pillar, two enchanting eyes that were twitching and emitting smoke, with only a little smoke and dust flying around.
"What?"
The cries of the three evil dragons, filled with surprise, reached his ears.
Obviously this guy also knows that his destructive power should not be so great that he can't even smash the floor and pillars, but it turns out that this thing is very hard and its moves can't hurt it at all.
The material is unusual.
Kashiwagi loosened his hands and landed lightly on the ground. He took out the Poké Ball and searched around for a place to hide. He felt that with his current physical condition, he would not get hurt even if he jumped from a height of ten meters as long as he could roll forward properly to relieve the force.
