Chapter 178 The Great Sage in Action
After Fangzhou returned to the manor, he solemnly handed the glass box containing the Flame Orb to Dasheng.
"Great Sage, you should thank the Flying Dragon properly; this is the prize it won after working so hard to win the competition."
"Awoo~" The Great Sage solemnly bowed to the Flying Dragon to express his gratitude.
The Salamence smiled sheepishly, revealing a goofy expression.
Oh dear, it's nothing.
Fangzhou originally thought that after Infernape obtained the Flame Orb, it would absorb the flames immediately and officially enter the Elite Four level.
After all, it had been plagued by bad luck for a long time.
Unexpectedly, the Great Sage looked at the Flaming Pearl in his hand, pondered for a moment, and then carefully put it away.
It needs to find a suitable time to absorb and break through.
Seeing that the Great Sage had his own ideas, Fangzhou assumed that it wanted to try to break through to the Heavenly King level one last time on its own, so he stopped worrying about it. "Alright, then you should control the timing yourself."
The Great Sage nodded, waved his fire stick, and walked away.
It's going to do something big tonight, but after thinking about it, it's best not to let Ark know.
It didn't tell the tropical dragon either.
Tropical dragons are not strong fighters and don't fly very fast.
Tonight, it's going to launch a blitzkrieg; it must be a quick victory.
The other party has lost their laptop and is probably searching frantically, so they will definitely be on high alert.
If I fail this time, I probably won't find such a good opportunity again.
……
As night deepened, the hustle and bustle of the celebration completely subsided.
As the celestial phenomena returned to stability, the night sky appeared exceptionally clear and bright.
The stars, which had been obscured by clouds and chaotic air currents for a long time, began to appear one by one, dotting the deep blue sky and shimmering with a cool, clear light.
Fangzhou lay listlessly on the bed, watching the second hand of the Starhawk alarm clock on the wall move little by little, silently counting down in his mind.
Finally, the clock hands pointed to twelve!
[Settlement of Sacrificial Rites for Heavenly Signs]
[Summer has ended on day 16; settlement begins]
[Income: 53276 Alliance Coins]
[Expenditure: 432 Alliance Coins]
[Ranking of the Celestial Chosen Sacrifice Event: Champion, receiving the highest level of blessing]
The stability of celestial phenomena is crucial to the survival of many Pokémon. When these phenomena become tools in the power struggles between certain deities, the entire world may weep. Even ordinary Pokémon must exert all their strength to alter the celestial phenomena and confront forces that seem insurmountable. You commanded Salamence, with your pseudo-legendary power, to stop the torrential rains, extinguish the hurricanes, and dispel the thunderstorms, bringing peace and stability to the residents of Littleroot Town. Rayquaza greatly admires you and may visit the manor in the future.
[Received reward - Rayquaza's ultimate blessing, lasting indefinitely]
Rayquaza's Supreme Blessing: Rayquaza is a Sky Pokémon, said to have never landed on the ground. It appears to feed on water and particles in the atmosphere. Its Tri-Organ combines the meteorites it swallows with its original energy, creating a power that replaces the Mega Stone. The manor is blessed, and the energy released from Pokémon's daily training is collected by the land, forming the manor's mining area, where Mega Stones and regular evolution stones may appear.
[You have gained the power to greatly enhance the strength of one Pokémon for ten seconds. Cooldown time: 12 hours.]
Fangzhou's eyes lit up as he looked at the system notification boxes that kept popping up in front of him.
As expected, the rewards for each holiday are really generous!
The manor's strength is UPUPUP!
First, Rayquaza blessed the manor. Before, Ark felt it was a pity that the mine was about to disappear, because a major source of income for the manor would be gone.
Unexpectedly, Rayquaza's blessing gave the manor the ability to produce ore on its own. Almost as soon as the notification disappeared, he felt a strange, steady energy fluctuation coming from the ground next to the chicken coop.
When I went outside, although I couldn't see clearly in the darkness and couldn't make out any changes with the naked eye, I could inexplicably sense that the nature of this land was undergoing a slow but fundamental change, becoming more profound and spiritual, as if it were nurturing something.
This must be the place where the ore is produced.
There's also the chance of getting a Mega Stone, which is an essential item for Pokémon to achieve another leap in their life level through Mega Evolution.
Currently, only Gardevoir and Salamence have the ability to Mega Evolve in the manor. Hopefully, we can find suitable evolution stones for them.
As for the abilities one acquires...
Fangzhou fell silent. Was this what "ten seconds of true manhood" meant?
It's pretty good that it's been cooling down for half a day. I feel like it could come in handy at a crucial moment. I'll test the specific effects again tomorrow.
Before I knew it, it was late at night.
The Great Sage opened his eyes and tiptoed outside.
As the night deepened and the dew grew heavy, all was silent.
Even the crickets, which love to be active at night, seem to have found a place to rest, leaving only the rustling of the breeze through the treetops and the ceaseless, gentle murmur of the river in the distance.
The moonlight, filtered through thin clouds, cast a soft, watery glow.
Feeling that it was about time, the Great Sage came to the Wyvern, patted it, and woke it up.
The Salamence was fast asleep, having just won the competition today and successfully dispelled the thunderstorm that even its mother couldn't ward off.
Hey!
I'm so awesome!
It was dreaming of a large group of Salamence looking at it with admiration, and even many small female Salamence coming over, wanting to have an in-depth discussion with it.
It was happily preparing to nod in agreement when suddenly a fiery monkey's head popped out from the dragon herd.
The Salamence was startled, then was slapped awake.
It rubbed its eyes and saw that the Fire Monkey was really standing in front of it; this was not a dream.
Salamence is so wronged, what are you doing?
This is the crucial moment!
It was about to roar loudly to vent its dissatisfaction when it was stopped by the quick-witted Great Sage.
The Great Sage let out a low cry.
Come on, I'll take you to do something big.
Are they trying to stir up trouble?
The Salamence instantly snapped out of its drowsiness, and with a serious expression, nodded vigorously.
Let's go, get in the car.
The night wind was biting, and the temperature was even lower at high altitudes.
With a powerful flap of its wings, Salamence carried Infernape like a deep blue arrow, silently piercing the night.
Below, the vast Orange Blossom Forest stretches into a bottomless, dark green ocean in the darkness, its canopies undulating like waves in the wind.
Occasionally, a few cooing birds would fly by, their exposed eyes flashing like scattered, faint stars in the depths of the forest.
Feeling that they had almost arrived at their destination, the Great Sage flipped off the Wyvern, waved at it, and gestured for it to find a place to hide.
It then began to search carefully, discerning the direction and texture of the nearby rocks.
Soon, it found an extremely well-hidden, seemingly naturally formed depression on the side of a rock that was half-submerged in water.
The Great Sage stretched out his claws and pressed several points in the indentation in a specific order and with a certain force.
"Click."
A soft sound rang out clearly on the quiet lakeside.
The two massive rock walls beside them trembled slightly, and a crack quietly slid open between them, revealing a metallic portal behind them.
