Chapter 732 The Coming Disaster
"That's right, Lin. This matter is extremely important to the alliance, to Shenzhou, and even to the world. If you know, you must explain it in detail."
Liu Longbo also chimed in. Looking at the expressions of the two, Lin Shi was a little confused. He didn't understand why they valued Rayquaza so much. Are the two idiots Fengyuan going to fight again?
"Coach Liu, President Gu, don't worry, we did see Rayquaza."
After a moment's silence, Lin Shi spoke the truth.
"While training at the Phantom Tower, we accidentally entered an unexplored place called the Star Temple, where we were attacked by a strange elf."
"That elf was very powerful and we were no match for it. At this critical moment, we chose to use the legendary wish-granting crystal we got in the tower."
"After making a wish, Rayquaza descended from the sky and fought with the elf. In the end, it defeated it and took the strange elf away. We were also safe, but unfortunately we don't know where it went."
Lin Shi narrated calmly. After all, what he said was completely true. The part about Sadhu and Jirachi had little to do with Rayquaza, so he chose to conceal these insignificant "little details".
"You can verify these things with Captain Wu. She is also one of the witnesses. She also made a great effort in the successful construction of Jianjing."
Lin Shi went on to say that even if these people had doubts about him, they would never doubt the members of the Long Qing team whom he had trained for so long.
"That's right, Lin Shi is telling the truth. If it weren't for Lin Shi and his friends' help, it would have been difficult for our team to escape from the Phantom Tower. In any case, we owe him a big favor."
Wu Chuyue also nodded, full of gratitude towards Lin Shi. The deputy captain, who had once been full of hostility towards Lin Shi, now fully recognized Lin Shi's abilities.
"Is that so? It was so close..."
After hearing Lin Shi's words, Gu Pu sighed quietly, his face full of regret. Liu Longbo, who always looked heartless, also shook his head in regret. If he had known this would happen, he should have let the elves go up and entangle Rayquaza.
Looking at the two of them, Lin Shi narrowed his eyes.
"From the looks of Coach Liu and President Gu, the search for Rayquaza is not just as simple as it being a legendary Pokémon. Can you tell me the purpose of the Alliance's search for it?"
"This……"
The two looked at each other, and finally Liu Longbo nodded.
"That's right. You are all the backbone of Shenzhou's future. I should tell you about this so that you can be mentally prepared."
"The reason we are looking for Tracer is because we realize that our planet is about to face a huge disaster. Only by finding it can we resolve it."
Hearing Liu Longbo's words, Lin Shi was startled.
disaster!
Lin Shi, who had just heard this word from Jirachi, suddenly became alert. As he expected, the Alliance had indeed realized the coming disaster, but he didn't know what this had to do with Rayquaza.
"Disaster, what disaster? Coach Liu, why have I never heard you talk about this?"
Wu Chuyue asked with a frown. She only understood now that it seemed that their mission to find Rayquaza was not just an ordinary trial. The Alliance really hoped that they could find it.
"This is not your coach's fault. So far, only some of the league's top people know about this matter. It is completely confidential to the public."
Gu Pu took over the conversation and looked up at the sky.
"Half a year ago, the International Space Observation Agency issued a warning to all regions of the world that in the next three years, a meteorite codenamed Apophis with a diameter of nearly eight kilometers will have a 70% chance of falling to Earth."
"You should know what this means. An asteroid of this magnitude will cause great harm to all living things on this planet. The energy generated by the impact will destroy all buildings, elves, and humans. This is a natural disaster that no country can escape!"
Every word of Gu Pu echoed in the ears of Lin Shi and Wu Chuyue like thunder.
A meteorite with a diameter of eight kilometers?
Lin Shi certainly knew what this meant. The Chicsuboru meteorite that was rumored to have wiped out the dinosaurs 3.5 million years ago was only ten kilometers in diameter. A meteorite with a diameter of 8 kilometers was enough to destroy half of the earth.
His head was buzzing. Was this the disaster Jirachi had mentioned? It was truly a disaster...
Now it goes without saying that Lin Shi also knows the purpose of the alliance's search for Rayquaza. After all, as the city in the sky, Rayquaza is responsible for protecting the earth from destruction by extraterrestrial objects, and it itself has the habit of eating meteorites.
As long as it takes action, it will definitely be able to destroy the meteorite and resolve this crisis for the Earth.
but……
Lin Shi gritted his teeth, but he really didn't know where Liekongzu had gone. He left in a hurry and didn't leave any contact information. Even the bead formed by the fusion of three fragments was taken away by him when he used the finishing touch.
Seeing that the atmosphere was silent for a moment, Liu Longbo suddenly smiled and patted Lin Shi on the shoulder.
"Okay, you two, stop looking like that. It's just a meteorite, isn't it? We're not those stupid dinosaurs. Even if we can't find Rayquaza, the Alliance still has ways to protect the Earth."
Liu Longbo said this with full confidence, but Lin Shi also believed it. After all, the planet now has the magical creatures of elves. What's more, not to mention Rayquaza, so many legendary elves are still living on this planet. They can't just stand by and watch them die, right?
Thinking of this, Lin Shi felt a little relieved. In this way, this huge meteorite was not that scary.
In addition, he suddenly remembered that when Rayquaza left, he gave some energy to Dragonite. Perhaps as Dragonite digests this energy for its own use, he can use it to sense and find the trace of Rayquaza.
"Alright, let's talk about the Phantom Tower in Feitian City. This time you, especially Lin Shi, have made great contributions by destroying the internationally notorious Polaris B9 stronghold. The Alliance will definitely reward you."
The atmosphere eased a little, and Liu Longbo went on to say that the surroundings had been almost cleaned up at this time, and the injured and captured people had been sent to the city.
"Also, cheer up. You don't need to worry about the meteorite, but you must win the championship for me in next year's World Youth Trainer Competition. This is your mission."
"have you understood!"
Liu Longbo regained his momentum. Lin Shi and Wu Chuyue looked at each other and shouted at the same time.
"understand!"
