Chapter 685: Rayquaza in the Mural
This is a huge mural that is nearly three meters long and two meters wide. The main content is a mysterious elf that looks like a dragon with strange patterns surrounding its body.
"Is this Rayquaza? It's drawn quite handsomely."
He muttered to himself as he looked at the mural forest.
That’s right, the elf painted on the wide mural in front of you is the legendary Pokémon, the God of the Sky - Rayquaza!
In the mural, it has a nimble posture and a fierce look. It is raising its head with its mouth wide open and roaring at a meteorite falling from the sky. The confrontation between the giant beast and the meteorite is so fierce that even though it is just a mural, Lin Shi can feel the unparalleled ferocity in it.
This is the legend that Rayquaza destroyed the meteorite to save the world, but with his previous memories, he knew that this might not be just a legend. Rayquaza itself feeds on meteorites, and as the god of the sky, it also has the responsibility to help the earth block the dangers of space.
Therefore, it is a divine beast that can truly resist meteorites.
After admiring the murals for a while, Lin Shi left the cave. He still had business to do. He couldn't find Rayquaza for the time being, but he could look for Jirachi, because it was a mythical beast that only woke up once every thousand years and could fulfill wishes.
Lin Shi arrived at the target location very quickly and recognized his target at a glance. However, among the murals with bright colors and roughly discernible main contents, the mural numbered [1] seemed out of place.
This turned out to be another abstract line mural like mural No. 7. Its level of confusion and chaos is just as great as No. , and it is impossible to tell what it is trying to express.
It is no wonder that the Alliance did not pay attention to such a mural, and placed it here somewhat casually with other murals.
What made Lin Shi even more concerned was that after walking for such a long time, his detection range had basically covered the entire Feitian Grottoes, but he only found this one target.
This shows one thing, mural number four is not here!
Thinking of this, Lin Shi narrowed his eyes, but still did not stop the work in his hands. He picked up his mobile phone and carefully collected information about the mural, took pictures from various angles, and left only after confirming that everything was correct.
"What? You found it, so quickly?"
Meng Wan and Qin Liuying, who were still diligently browsing the murals and whose eyes were almost dazzled, received news from Lin Shi one after another.
"We were lucky, but the mural on slab No. 1 is very similar to that on slab No. 7. We have limited clues and cannot tell what it is about."
"Then we only have mural number four left. If we keep working hard, we may be able to find it soon."
Meng Wan's confidence increased greatly after successfully finding a stone slab so quickly, and her tone was a little excited.
"No need. If the stone slabs were unearthed from the same place, they should be placed together. But I only have one, so the No. 4 stone slab should not be here. Let's go back first."
Lin Shi made up excuses casually, but he knew in his heart that it would be useless to look for the reason here.
Fortunately, Meng Wan and Qin Liuying still obeyed the arrangements. After hearing what Lin Shi said, they had no objection. They all returned to Yang Wangxing’s old and shabby apartment together again.
……
"But it seems that we still can't see anything, and there is no clue at all in the remaining mural No. 4. What should we do now?"
Inside the apartment, Meng Wan frowned as she looked at several mural photos arranged in order hanging on the blackboard.
Yang Wangxing said that information about Jirachi is hidden in these murals, but now that 7 out of 6 murals have been found, they still have no clue.
Meng Wan's words made the others fall into silence. Even Lin Shi was scratching his nose and thinking. These murals made him feel extremely difficult.
从目前已经得到的6幅壁画中，2号、3号、5号和6号包括最中间的4号，它们一起可能是记述着一个故事，一个有关于古代族群对于基拉祈许愿实现愿望的故事。
So if there really are clues to Jirachi’s location in these murals, they can only be the unknown numbers 1 and 7.
Thinking of this, Lin Shi took out a pen and copied the two murals. He tried changing the angle, or making the lines on the two murals complement each other, but still couldn't make out anything.
"I think the only hope is the Phantom Tower."
Finally, Yang Wangxing broke the silence. Lin Shi and others looked at him and saw that his eyes were particularly determined.
"The only location we can confirm on the murals is this tower that is suspected to be the Phantom Tower. We have no reason to go here. Maybe if we go inside the tower, we will be able to know what murals No. 1 and No. 7 represent."
After listening to his words, Lin Shi hesitated for a moment and did not refute, because what Yang Wangxing said did make sense. The Phantom Tower had not appeared for a long time, and the Alliance's investigation into it was not yet complete enough to cover every detail. Perhaps there were still secrets hidden in it that had not been discovered.
"No matter what you plan to do, I am planning to go to the Phantom Tower. I have just checked the weather forecast. The next sandstorm in the Tianming Desert will arrive the day after tomorrow."
"I plan to head to the desert tomorrow to look for the Phantom Tower."
Hearing this, Lin Shi raised his eyebrows. It seemed that the other party came prepared and was planning to get up after checking the time. Thinking of this, Lin Shi rolled his eyes and a smile appeared on his face.
"Hey, Lao Yang, don't be so serious. Aren't we a team? At your age, you go to the desert alone. What if something unexpected happens before you even encounter the Phantom Tower?"
"Well, give me some time and we can discuss it."
After saying that, Lin Shi gave Meng Wan and Qin Liuying a look, and they left the house and came to the living room.
"Lin Shi, what are your plans? Are you going to that tower?"
As soon as she came out, Meng Wan couldn't wait to ask.
Lin Shi did not hide it and nodded.
"I am indeed somewhat interested in this tower. Besides, it was actually the mission target for me when I first came here. However, something happened and I didn't go there. Now we have come to the same destination by different paths."
"Is that so? Then I want to go too. I finally encountered something interesting. This adventure will definitely be exciting. I know that following you is definitely the right thing to do!"
Meng Wan also raised her hand immediately, her eyes sparkling. As soon as she looked at her, Lin Shi knew that she was fantasizing again...
"Actually, I also want to go to the Phantom Tower."
At this time Qin Liuying also spoke. Unlike Meng Wan's excitement, her expression was much more serious.
"In fact, it has been more than seven days since my father and his team set out. Although this situation has happened before, I still have a bad feeling in my heart and I still want to go and see it in person."
Listening to Qin Liuying's words, Lin Shi nodded, then glanced around and looked at the two of them.
"In that case, let's set off tomorrow!"
