Chapter 300 Wei Xin: Hu Pa, what are you doing here?
The five pillars, the Claydol army and other Pokémon, twelve Mega Metagross, Hoopa, Ancient Shiny Magearna and Eternal Flower Fluttershy.
Wei Xin marveled inwardly at the immense wealth and resources his ancestors possessed.
Zygard said, "This lad is the one I chose. I brought him and the Imperial Seal of the State here to meet you."
Magiana accepted Zygarde's explanation and turned her gaze to Cynthia and her group beside Wei Xin: "Then what about the people around him? Why did he bring people from other regions into this tomb?"
Cynthia immediately realized that this was the tomb of the Eastern Emperor, and outsiders like them were not qualified to enter, not even for a visit. She explained, "We are attendants."
No sooner had Cynthia finished speaking than Hoopa impatiently interjected, labeling the group: "Kill them! They are intruders, tomb raiders! They trespassed on His Majesty's tomb, offending the majesty of Qin! Kill them now, immediately!"
As soon as Hoopa finished speaking, the clay giants behind him raised their legs and stomped their feet in unison.
boom!
The immense weight caused the tomb to shake.
Countless gazes came from all directions, locking onto the four like infrared beams on a sniper rifle, ready to strike, telling them there was nowhere to escape in the tomb. The overwhelming force made Nemo and Pipa, who were already on edge, weak in the knees, and Wei Xin and Shirona quickly helped them up.
Hoopa removed the metal ring from his horn and threw it into the air. The metal ring hovered above the four people's heads, continuously expanding, with a powerful force stirring within it, aiming at the four of them.
"Stop! Do you intend to demolish this tomb?!" Magiyana shouted sternly, stopping Hoopa's actions. "It is true that they trespassed on the tomb, but according to the laws of Qin, they have the right to defend themselves."
She turned her gaze to Wei Xin.
"They have passed through the mechanism and proven their abilities. At the very least, they are entitled to return to the ground before doing anything truly offensive. Moreover, a distinguished guest who holds the Imperial Seal and has been certified by Zygarde, Lugia, Rayquaza, and Ho-Oh is more than qualified to receive our highest level of hospitality."
Although his tone was gentle and his words were fair, his eyes held a hint of hostility and displeasure towards the uninvited guest.
Wei Xin didn't care about this. They had indeed trespassed into the tomb, and the tomb belonged to the First Emperor. These Pokémon and treasures also belonged to him. As veteran officials of the Qin Dynasty, the deeper their love and loyalty to the Qin Dynasty, the deeper their hatred and disgust for them.
They haven't taken any action yet because they need to abide by the rules left by Qin Shi Huang.
Wei Xin was puzzled as to how Magiana could tell that he hadn't even activated the aura of a divine beast.
"By bypassing the traps?" Hoopa protested. "What kind of skill is it to teleport around all the traps? They should at least have one person die inside as a blood sacrifice, that's the rule."
“There has never been such a rule,” Magiana corrected, her tone leaving no room for argument. “Regardless of the means, any descendant who successfully reaches the tomb is entitled to an audience. This is a rule established by His Majesty during his lifetime.”
When Magiana mentioned His Majesty, Huba choked up, her mouth opening and closing as if she wanted to say something but couldn't. Her expression instantly turned aggrieved: "Anyway, His Majesty is gone, so you're the one who calls the shots in the tomb. You only know how to bully me with the rules. If His Majesty were still here—"
"If His Majesty were still here—" Huba lowered his gaze, sniffed, and murmured dejectedly.
If the Qin Dynasty were still standing...
Hua Yedi floated to Hoopa's side and reached out to pat Hoopa's head.
Wei Xin understood; Hoopa was a Pokémon that His Majesty had kept, or rather, abandoned.
And that emperor may already be in eternal sleep in his tomb.
Magiana let out a heavy, metallic sigh: "Enough, this is not the place to talk. Please move to the inner city first."
Hupa protested, "No way! Every brick, every tile, every blade of grass here belongs to the Great Qin. What if they damage something? I won't allow them to step on the tomb's floor tiles! Anyway, it's just a conversation, it doesn't matter where we talk. Wait a minute! We'll find another place!"
With a wave of his hand, the ring above their heads fell down, covering the four people.
The view changed from dim to bright. The room was furnished with sofas, tables and chairs, an LCD TV screen, and an Iron Warrior sitting in the room whose eyes lit up after sensing Wei Xin's presence.
I'm puzzled. Wasn't the trainer away on a business trip? Why is he suddenly back home?
Wei Xin took off his helmet, breathed in the familiar air of the room, confirmed that what he was seeing was not a hallucination, stared wide-eyed, and exclaimed in surprise: "Where have I been put here—?"
"Your home! Where else could it be?" Hoopa's voice came from inside the metal ring.
The sudden turn of events caught everyone off guard, shattering their thoughts. Who could have imagined that just a moment ago they were in the magnificent outer city of the Qin Dynasty imperial mausoleum, and the next moment they were back in Wei Xin's villa? The excitement and tension vanished, replaced only by bewilderment and astonishment.
Is this reasonable?
Before anyone could react, Maya's voice came from inside the metal ring.
"Excuse me, could you please move aside?"
Everyone stepped aside, and Magiyana and Huayedi passed through the metal ring and appeared in Wei Xin's villa. They also arrived at Wei Xin's house. Huayedi was holding a mobile phone and making a video call. On the other end of the line was Hupa, who was unable to pass through the ring.
The phone is the latest model.
"The Qin tombs do not welcome Han people, and the air inside does not belong to you. If you have something to say, talk about it in your home," Huba said irritably in the video.
Everyone finally realized what had happened, raised their hands, and slapped their foreheads hard. Because Huba didn't want anyone to enter the tomb, they had been thrown back to Wei Xin's house by Huba.
Wei Xin quickly accepted the fact that at least Hupa hadn't closed the portal directly and had even sent Huayedi and Magiyana over, so there was still room for negotiation. Moreover, being in his own home, he didn't feel nervous at all.
After connecting to the signal, Rotom emitted a beeping sound, indicating that the messages sent to Wei Xin were being delayed. Wei Xin confirmed that the messages were from the Alliance, likely questioning why he had barged into the tomb.
Wei Xin thought for a moment, then chose to silence his phone, leaving the incompetent alliance aside until things were resolved.
"Alright, everyone come out." Wei Xin released his Pokémon and, as the host, began to entertain the guests. "Flavoury, Magearna, Hoopa, what would you like to eat?"
To avoid accidentally making a commotion and causing trouble, Charcoal Sprite, Brimwyn, and Soothing wisely left the room and went to the courtyard, where Gardevoir and Diancie began to help Wei Xin entertain the guests.
Nemo and Pipa were a beat slow on the uptake and still couldn't quite accept the reality. Then they saw Huayedi holding her phone, swiping open a food delivery app. A new user benefit popped up on the app, and she excitedly pointed to the milk tea and snacks in her shopping cart, which she had been looking forward to buying for a long time but couldn't because she didn't have identification or a bank account.
"Okay, I'll have them send it over as soon as possible," Wei Xin agreed to Hua Yedi's request.
Huayeti smiled sweetly.
"I don't need to eat." Magiana refused the energy cube Wei Xin offered, glanced around the room, observed her surroundings, and explained to everyone.
"Although the tomb is isolated from the world, we occasionally use Hoopa's power to observe the outside environment. We even occasionally go out and use some of the antiques in the tomb to buy things."
Maya's words reminded Wei Xin of the antiques that had appeared on the market before. If the Qin Shi Huang Mausoleum was sealed with stone slabs, even if tomb raiders found the location of the mausoleum, they would return empty-handed. He confirmed, "Didn't you come out once not long ago and buy some antiques?"
"Yes," Magiana admitted. "There were some problems with the mechanisms in the tomb before, and materials were needed to repair them, so I came out and exchanged some things. I also bought Huayeti's phone at that time. However, it seems to have caused some problems."
"So, the Hoenn incident—"
Magearna nodded and said frankly, "Yes, we witnessed the entire Hoenn incident and saw your performance, which was excellent. In fact, since the Hoenn incident, we have been keeping a close eye on your and Zygarde's movements."
Wei Xin gasped. What kind of world was this? He had been being watched by a group of Pokémon the whole time, and it was being broadcast live.
At the same time, he wondered if there were any other Pokémon watching him besides Magearna and the others.
