Chapter 224 Tunnel
Wei Xin led the group deeper into the mine. Since leaving the man-made tunnel, the road had become narrow, but with the help of the wave guide, the four of them made their way very smoothly. They were not attacked by any Pokémon along the way. They didn't know if the previous wave had exhausted the small fry or if the other side had decided to launch a big attack.
The only problem was the thin air underground, so all four of them carried portable oxygen cylinders.
Throughout the journey, Korni's gaze never left Wei Xin. After a while, she mustered her courage, found an opportunity, and whispered shyly in Wanlong's ear, "Miss Wanlong, does Wei Xin have a girlfriend?"
Wanlong glanced sideways and blinked. Had this little girl taken a liking to Wei Xin? Was it love at first sight or lust at first sight?
Never mind, it makes no difference.
It's no wonder the young girl had such thoughts. When faced with extreme danger and on the verge of death, it's a fantasy for many girls to have a young, handsome, and eligible man suddenly appear with his men, quickly dispatch the thugs, and rescue them with great ease, offering words of comfort and care.
Just kidding, guys actually fantasize about it too.
Let alone someone as good-looking as Wei Xin, even a goblin might have their heart pounding.
But should we mention that Wei Xin already has a girlfriend?
If I tell her, it's a small matter if it hurts the girl's feelings, but it will ruin Wei Xin's chances of finding a lover. What if he kills me to silence me?
Wei Xin's progress is frighteningly fast; it's likely that he'll soon be able to beat himself to his knees.
That day, the peach blossoms you cut down in the cave, today I demand you repay tenfold to help me cultivate.
too frightening.
But lying—looking at Ke'erni's expectant, innocent eyes, Wanlong knew she couldn't bring herself to deceive a woman.
After a moment's thought, Wanlong had a flash of inspiration and said, "He can have it."
She simply chose ambiguity, not because she wanted to see bloodshed.
"It could be, or it could not be," Ke'erni slammed her fist down, understanding Wanlong's meaning. This was an implication, no, an explicit statement: Wei Xin not only didn't have a girlfriend, but Wanlong also intended to match her up with Wei Xin.
This is a great favor; I must find a chance to repay it.
But before that, she had to repay Wei Xin for saving her life.
But what to do? They were just strangers who met by chance and had no emotional connection—that's it!
Korini suddenly had an idea. They were both trainers, so they could have a fight first, a Pokémon battle. Or they could add a condition, such as—if she won, Wei Xin would have to date her.
Moreover, Wei Xin is also a waveguide user, capable of using waveguides to explore roads. Clearly, her waveguide skills surpass hers. If Grandpa knew this, he would surely be very happy.
But what about Wei Xin's parents? Would they like the Carlos girl?
Reading Korni's thoughts, Wei Xin secretly chuckled to himself. What level are you at? You haven't even mastered Mega Evolution, yet you want to beat me?
Lost in thought, Kerni didn't notice the path beneath her feet, nor that the other three had stopped. Suddenly, a hole appeared under her feet, and she cried out in pain, nearly falling as she lost her balance. Just then, Wei Xin reached out and grabbed her arm.
"The mine is dangerous. You haven't fully recovered yet. Be careful. Did you sprain your ankle?"
"Ah, oh, um, no, I'm sorry." Korni blushed and obediently walked behind Wei Xin.
Moreover, he is steady and considerate, even though he is about the same age as him.
Wei Xin crouched down, placing his palm on the pit where Korni had almost stepped in. Waveguide sensed the lingering aura: "That's right, this is the pit where Little Diamond slept. Piper, give me the flashlight."
"it is good."
Wei Xin shone his flashlight at the wall and the ceiling, and everyone gasped in amazement.
"Are all of these diamonds?"
Under the sweeping light, the black walls resembled a night sky, with countless diamond fragments appearing and disappearing like stars.
"Yes," Wei Xin said. Although diamonds are not valuable to trainers, and are less valuable than energy-carrying minerals, "it means that a large number of small diamonds were sleeping here before, and then something happened that caused them to wake up and leave."
"A race of tiny diamonds?" Korne exclaimed in surprise. "Doesn't that mean that Diancie might even exist in this mine?"
"Tianxi?" Piper asked, puzzled.
"That's right. There's a legend in the Kalos region that a Diancie is born in every Diamond Shard population. She has the ability to create super rare pink diamonds and is the princess of the entire population. She's a super rare Mythical Pokémon," Korrina said.
No girl could resist Diancie's pink diamond. If someone could propose to a girl she liked with a pink diamond, as a young woman, Korni couldn't help but be captivated by the thought.
"I knew it! Why did you suddenly decide to bring people down the mine? Turns out it was for the pink diamonds." Wanlong snorted. "What about Spinner? Did you set the trap?"
"No, Spinner is my target," Wei Xin said, but not for the hook of Spinner. "Tianshi and the Crystal Mine are just side projects; the most important thing is the plan behind the exploration team."
Unfortunately, judging from the remaining aura, Spinell must have reached this place and wanted to return to find supplies, but Gengar interfered and she lost her way. In the end, Spinell's remaining aura and Bisharp's aura became mixed up—and a battle ensued, which was the final result.
Spiner was beaten to his knees by the cleaving commanders and should now be in the lair.
Wei Xin sighed. Why were the cleaver commander and the dagger soldier who captured Spinner, instead of the goblins?
"Hey! Come and take a look." Piper kicked aside a mound of earth during the investigation, and everyone crowded around. They saw a faint light coming from the bottom.
"This should be the location of the underground mine. What should we do? Enlarge the entrance and go straight down?" Pipa asked.
"No, this isn't a one-way journey; we also need to figure out how to get up here," Wei Xin said. "None of us brought any Pokémon that can actually fly."
"Then what should we do?" Wanlong asked.
"Have you forgotten what we encountered when we first entered the cave?" Wei Xin laughed, shaking the dark sphere in his hand.
Wanlong and Paipa suddenly realized: "It's Banjilas! Since Banjilas climbed up from the Crystal Cave—"
"This means there is a tunnel leading to the Taijing Cave."
Wei Xin used the waveguide to probe for a while and found the waveguide left behind by Bangiras.
He led the group to a wall that had clearly been dug up and was covered with rubble. He patted it twice, and the wall sank in, causing the rubble to fall.
"My god, we found this! Is the waveguide really that convenient?" Wanlong exclaimed. Regardless of how many unexpected events the waveguide had helped them avoid, the fact that they hadn't gotten lost from the beginning to the end of the mine and had gone straight to the heart of the matter was already the envy of others.
The enormous Taijing Cave has remained undiscovered to this day, demonstrating its remarkable secrecy.
Unfortunately, it encountered someone who knew waveguides, and was even more cunning than it.
"Actually, it's not a problem with the waveguide," Korne explained. "Through combat and training in superpowers, many people can master the waveguide, but most people just become more sensitive. People like Wei Xin, who can use the waveguide for precise detection over a large area, are said to be extremely rare, and those who have seen it are probably fewer than one person."
"Wei Xin, who did you learn waveguide from? Could it be that you're an apprentice at Wudang Mountain—no, you should be a master?" Ke Erni asked.
"Ah, isn't this something I can just practice casually?" Wei Xin replied without hesitation, his face full of innocence.
He only has 24 hours in a day, and he practices for 18 hours a day using double efficiency cards. In terms of hardship, it's not even as difficult as the college entrance examination or the postgraduate entrance examination.
Wanlong pouted: "It's just a casual practice session, can't you be a little more modest?"
What if that young girl's Dao heart is broken?
"Wow, you achieved so much without a mentor? That's amazing!" Korni exclaimed.
With such extraordinary talent, if we could bring him back to Carlos, wouldn't Grandpa be overjoyed?
This trip to Donghuang was definitely the right decision.
Wanlong rubbed his forehead and sighed. They say that wise people don't fall in love, but this little girl is clearly completely smitten and beyond saving.
"Alright, let's clear the road first," Wei Xin said, releasing all the Pokémon.
"Millardon, Sylveon, Dig, Kirlia, Psychic, the rest of you lend a hand, Togekiss stand a little further away from you so you don't get hit by rocks—never mind, I'll carry you."
"Gengar, Cofagrigus, let's go too. Chandelure, you don't need to, you don't have any hands."
"Lucario, let's help too! Use Rock Smash!"
Sylveon, Milton, and Lucario were responsible for breaking the rocks and digging them out; the three were about the same speed.
"Mmm!" The skilled blacksmith joined in, swinging his hammer and pounding the wall repeatedly.
With a deafening roar, like an earthquake, Sylveon, Milton, and Lucario were stunned as they watched the blacksmith swing his hammer with incredible speed. The work efficiency of just one Pokémon was equivalent to the combined efficiency of all three of them.
The blacksmith smiled smugly. She's a Pokémon who lives in a mine. Don't try to challenge my life with your whims.
Then, the blacksmith stopped laughing, because of Gengar.
He opened his mouth, aimed at the rubble in the tunnel, and I ate and ate and ate and ate, then ran out of the tunnel and vomited and vomited.
What is life? Life is all about eating.
The bizarre cleaning method left everyone stunned.
The Ghost-type Pokémon's physical ability can be used like this? Gengar, you're something else!
Immediately afterwards, the excavated road began to shake, and due to the unstable structure, more gravel fell.
But it doesn't matter, because Kirlia has made her move.
Her eyes flashed, and she unleashed her telekinetic power. Large shards of gravel rolled to both sides and embedded themselves in the wall. Behind her, countless pieces of wood and iron flew out, clearing a path while reinforcing the wall to ensure a smooth passage for escape.
"Is your Kirlia's Psychic power really that strong?" Wanlong asked. Based on her observation alone, Kirlia's Psychic power, in terms of both power and accuracy, is no less than that of Cattleya's Psychic-type Pokémon.
Is your Kirlia really legal? This trainer and Pokémon are both incredibly overpowered.
"It's truly a case of the new generation pushing the old one forward, leaving the old one stunned on the beach," Wanlong remarked.
"Don't you dare spout off those Donghuang proverbs," Wei Xin scolded. "What if they corrupt the children?"
While chatting, the group cleared a path, and after some effort, a wide road that could accommodate three people leaving at the same time appeared before them.
When they finally entered the hidden underground mine, they were shocked by what they saw and exclaimed in surprise.
