Chapter 309 Darkrai merely invaded Wei Xin's dream, yet the Iron Warrior forcibly broke both his legs.
"Mercury forms the rivers and seas, with mechanisms to circulate it. Above are the heavens, below are the earth. Mermaid oil is used for candles, which will burn for a long time without ceasing." Cynthia released Lucario and Roseradore, keeping watch over their surroundings while gazing at the scene before her.
Just as described in ancient books, white flames flickered in the distant beacon towers, and the dome shimmered with constellations of gemstones, shining brightly and illuminating the entire space. All around were mountains, land, and mercury flowing in the riverbed.
"Buyi~" Xiaoyu jumped out and stood at Papa's feet.
Nemo paused, blinked her clear eyes, and a thought popped into her mind: "Good heavens, what are we doing here?"
"It's inside the Mausoleum of the First Qin Emperor, a map modeled after the territory of the Qin Dynasty," Wei Xin explained, releasing Gardevoir and Brimwyn.
"Wrong, wrong, wrong!" Hoopa's arrogant voice echoed from the sky. Everyone looked up and saw Hoopa floating in the air, arms crossed, waving his fingers. "This is not the Qin Dynasty. The map beneath your feet is a world map commissioned by His Majesty after he returned from circumnavigating the world aboard Rayquaza!"
Besides Hoopa, Flareon and Magearna were also floating in the sky. Everyone raised their chins in surprise, not because they could fly. After all, flying is not a difficult thing for Pokémon. Almost all legendary Pokémon have had the experience of flying—even those that were knocked away count.
Instead, it was Hoopa and his companions who were hundreds of feet tall, like giants standing at the edge of the world, looking down at them.
They are like puppets on a chessboard.
"Hehe, scared, huh?" Huba put his hands on his hips, wiped his nose, and was about to explain.
Cynthia realized what was happening and slammed her fist down: "We were shrunk by Hoopa's portal."
When someone answered before him, Hoopa's lips twitched unhappily. He explained, "That's right. After all, the upcoming battle might cause quite a commotion. If we run outside, it could affect countless people."
"But everyone outside is Han Chinese, so if they die, they die." Hupa turned his face away and said with a resentful expression, but his complaint still reached everyone's ears.
"Why does he resent the Han people so much?" Nemo belatedly released Babu the Groundhog and Tuotuo the Earthworm, and whispered in Wei Xin's ear.
"The dynasty that Liu Bang established after he destroyed the Qin Dynasty was called Han," Wei Xin explained in a low voice.
Imagine that Liu Bang, the founding emperor of an ancient dynasty, came to the modern era. He was walking down the street when he looked down at an ID card and realized that the dynasty he founded had become the largest ethnic group in the land of Donghuang. If he didn't laugh so hard that he was carried to the hospital due to lack of oxygen, he would definitely have either not eaten enough for lunch and was too weak to laugh, or he would have been diagnosed with depression.
Just kidding, even people with depression have been cured.
[Liu Bang: Brother Zheng, look, they're Han Chinese, Han Chinese, they're all Han Chinese! (Tap his ID card)]
[Ying Zheng: I don't know about the Han people, but today Emperor Gaozu of Han is going to die (draws sword)]
"That's certainly something to hate," Nemo agreed. The fact that Hoopa, a veteran minister of the Qin Dynasty, didn't directly huff at them only showed that Hoopa was more cultured.
Hupa coughed, steered the conversation back on track, gave a wicked smile, and reminded him of something very crucial: "By the way, Wei Xin, you can't summon divine beasts here."
Upon hearing this, Wei Xin immediately closed his eyes and tried, but to no avail. He could not sense anything outside this space, nor could he send messages to Lugia and Rayquaza.
His internet connection dropped.
His biggest trump card is gone.
"Why didn't you say so from the beginning?" Wei Xin questioned.
"You didn't ask," Hoopa said smugly, waving his arms in the air and shaking his head arrogantly. "So, this exam can only rely on your own abilities. Use your brains and try to last as long as possible. Don't let this exam end too quickly."
Seeing Wei Xin deep in thought, clearly considering a solution, Hu Pa didn't give him a chance, fearing that Wei Xin might actually come up with one. He snapped his fingers, and a metal ring took off from the corner and landed in front of everyone, bringing with it an ominous and malevolent aura.
The Poké Ball of the Iron Warrior wobbled slightly at Wei Xin's waist.
A Pokémon appeared before them, its long, black legs blending into the shadows beneath its feet. Its body was a swirling mass of darkness, absorbing the surrounding light. A bright red scarf fluttered without wind, and a pale face appeared before them. It opened its eyes, its sinister, arrogant, and malicious gaze scrutinizing the four people before it.
It sends chills down one's spine.
An ordinary trainer, two very strong trainers, who, in human terms, should be called Elite Four members, no, above Elite Four members, are Champions, and the Pokémon around them are also very powerful, especially that Lucario, which should not be underestimated, and that Gardevoir.
There is a peculiar power within the body that requires special attention.
Her trainer is ————
Darkrai's gaze drifted away from Gardevoir and landed on Wei Xin, who was tilting his head in surprise, standing there stunned.
His eyes widened, then closed again. He rubbed them in disbelief, opened them again, and examined them closely. After confirming the sight, his pupils suddenly contracted, and he screamed in terror.
It's you!
What's going on? Hearing Darkrai's inner thoughts, Wei Xin was puzzled. Although he knew all the information about Darkrai, he had never met Darkrai in real life. But judging from the other party's reaction, something was wrong. An absurd idea surfaced in Wei Xin's mind.
Could it be that Darkrai is also spying on me?
Wei Xin shrugged and sighed inwardly, "My damn charm."
While Wei Xin was indulging in his narcissism, Darkrai's heart was in his throat. He recalled a long time ago when he was severely injured and, just before he was about to dissipate, he sensed a shift in spacetime. He seized the opportunity and, with the help of his shadow, escaped from the Reverse World to the real world, landing in Donghuang.
Sensing the presence of a strange aura in Donghuang, he saw through the window a student who had finished his exam and was resting with his eyes closed. The student was the only one sleeping in the entire exam hall, so he chose to temporarily enter his dream to recuperate.
In order to regain his strength, he appeared before the student, attempting to draw energy from his dreams by exploiting the unknown and fear.
To everyone's surprise, the student showed no fear whatsoever. Instead, without any clues whatsoever, after a moment's thought, he called out his name.
Darkrai was stunned.
In all his years of life, this was the first time he had ever seen someone call his name in a nightmare. In the end, he could only rush out and try to force the other person to feel fear.
Then he was dumbfounded again.
Not only was the opponent unafraid, but when forced to the brink of death, he actually chose to fight him to the death. After confirming that it was a dream, he summoned a Flower Healing Ring and a Kadabra and began to fight him.
No, even though I'm half-dead right now, I'm not someone two weak Pokémon can fool.
Then he won, although his strength was reduced to one-tenth, it was still more than enough to deal with a Flower Healing Ring and a Kadabra (well, it was still difficult, what should have been a sure thing turned into a near defeat, and he only won by a narrow margin in the end). Later, the man summoned a flying yellow mushroom head.
He was somewhat difficult to deal with, but after a tough battle, he ultimately won by virtue of his attribute advantage.
The man then tried to summon other Pokémon, but failed each time for unknown reasons, perhaps due to insufficient brain processing.
Darkrai thought that the man, having exhausted all his options, would choose to give up and obediently offer up his fear.
He didn't intend to harm anyone; he just wanted to eat.
Then the man did something that left everyone speechless: he pulled out a human weapon, tried to use death to escape the dream, shoved it into his mouth without a word, and pulled the trigger without hesitation.
Darkrai was speechless. Seriously, dude, is it really necessary? You're not afraid of death, so why are you afraid of me absorbing fear?
Right, he's not afraid of death, so where does fear come from?
After numerous battles of wits and courage, and repeatedly preventing the opponent's death, Darkrai ultimately used the opponent as a medium to absorb the students' fear of exams, regaining some of his strength, and planned to find a new place to heal his injuries.
Humans are terrifying.
Just as the exam ended, he used the shadowy figure to escape, fleeing all the way to the far outskirts. He thought he had finally escaped, but as soon as he showed his face, he was attacked by a strange metallic Pokémon.
The other side only beeped and didn't say anything else, carrying two watermelon knives. He tried to beat them but found he couldn't. The other side was a robot that didn't need to sleep, and the Dark Hole was ineffective against her.
Darkrai wanted to reconcile with the other party, explaining, "We're complete strangers, why bother?"
The other party ignored him and only focused on attacking. He didn't even flinch when he was hit. He had the air of a husband who came home to find his wife humiliated and, in a fit of rage, declared that if he died today, it would be either her or me, a life for a life.
Darkrai is numb, no, sister, I have no grudge against you, why do this?!
He could only drag his crippled body and flee without stopping, not daring to look back for fear of being caught. Finally, he seized the moment when the Qin Emperor's Mausoleum fluctuated, slipped into the mausoleum, and only felt relieved after confirming that it was safe. He then discussed with the mausoleum's manager and received permission to recuperate in the mausoleum.
As a result, after being persuaded by Hoopa to take action, he happened to run into this unlucky human again.
"Grass!"
Enraged, Darkrai uttered a swear word, mimicking a human.
Why are you everywhere!
"Everyone be careful." Darkrai, who had been standing still for a long time, suddenly spoke up, enraged, and a terrifying aura swept through the entire space. Cynthia led everyone to take a step back.
Darkrai glared angrily and raised his hand toward the crowd.
Dark Hole!
"Buyi!" Xiaoyu sensed danger and rushed out of the attack range in a flash. She turned around and saw that although Weixin and Xilona had reacted, they were still unable to escape in time and were enveloped by the shadow.
Darkrai's lips curled into a barely perceptible sneer. Dark Hole was an indiscriminate mass sleep skill; once it hit, it could drag the opponent into a dark world, forcing them to sleep.
He clenched his fist and slowly floated toward the group enveloped by the dark hole.
"Is that all?" Hoopa sneered in the sky, took out champagne from the ring, and gleefully handed it to Magiana, Flower Leaf, and Darkrai.
Wuhu, let's pop the champagne! Today is another day to protect the wealth of the Qin Dynasty.
Clutching the champagne under his armpits, Darkrai clasped his hands together and unleashed his Dream Eater attack. Countless black tentacles reached out to the people trapped in the dark cave, just when they thought they were about to feast.
drip.
Hearing the familiar voice, he stood frozen in terror, looking around as a blazing sword light flashed, cleaving Dark Hole, the champagne in his hand, and his body in two.
Darkrai screamed in agony. In the midst of unbearable pain, his gaze fell on the end of the sword's flash, where he caught a glimpse of the man named Wei Xin, who was gently laying his unconscious companion to safety.
Standing beside me was a familiar, cold body. Although the eyes were no longer the alluring pink, but a dazzling golden yellow like the sun, the emotions in them were exactly the same as before.
It was filled with anger.
Darkrai felt a sharp, explosive sound in his mind.
The Iron Warrior is still chasing me, damn it!
