Chapter 1338 Blizzard Ghost
"Regickas!"
The call for the Age of Gods came belatedly.
It wasn't that he was slow to react; he simply hadn't expected Regigigas to bypass him and attack Kashiwagi instead.
Cynthia held the Poké Ball in one hand, looked at Regigigas walking back to the throne, and murmured, "Could the myth be true?"
"What mythology?"
After personally confirming that Kashiwagi was unharmed, Kamishiro showed interest upon hearing this.
As an archaeologist and adventurer, he was interested in all kinds of myths.
Zhu Lan said, "It is said that countless hidden legends are recorded on the back of the Slate of Arceus. One of them reads, 'The power that the Slate was given was the power of the giant that was defeated.'"
"'The power of the defeated giants...'"
Kamishiro couldn't help but glance at the giants around him, and then at Regigigas, who had returned to the throne.
Could the power of the stone tablet originate from Regigigas?
Cypress remained noncommittal, unsure of the situation in the game, but the stone slab in the animation background—the source of life—had no inscriptions behind it. The inscriptions most likely originated from Bamboo Orchid's ancestors, the ancient people of Shenhe.
They coexisted with the Ten Kings of Xicui in ancient times on the land of Xicui, and the stone slab was probably given to the Ten Kings by them.
"That's why Regigigas attacked when he saw the Thousand Cosmic Arm and the stone tablet that Kashiwagi possessed."
Kamishiro paused for a moment, then asked, "Did you stop attacking because you realized your comrades were protecting Kashiwagi?"
He walked up to Regigigas, looking up at the towering giant king. "Is this so, Regigigas? I'm sorry to disturb your slumber!"
Regigigas was still willing to give face to the Age of Gods; the central pore, resembling the Big Dipper, shimmered with light, and a deep hum resounded throughout the entire hall.
"Hey~! Chirp~! Tsk~! Crack~! Hiss~!"
"What does it say?"
Bai Mu turned his head and asked about the phone.
The phone's screen displayed a large question mark, indicating, "I don't understand, they're not speaking human language."
The Divine Pillars have their own unique language, a fact that was already clear when the three Divine Pillars were captured.
Kamishiro didn't understand either, but that didn't stop him from realizing that Regigigas wasn't angry.
"Kashiwagi..."
"That's enough. It's enough to see it from afar."
Kashiwagi didn't make things difficult for the other party.
To be honest, if he were alone, he wouldn't mind trying to "provoke" Regigigas and communicate with him using the Heart of God.
Unfortunately, both Jindai and Zhulan were present, and if they angered Regigigas and caused it to go berserk, it would be bad for them.
"You should be able to get through; Regigigas won't target you."
He said to Zhu Lan beside him.
Zhu Lan would not let such a good opportunity pass by, and leisurely stepped forward to observe the legendary Giant King up close.
Of course, it wasn't just the King of Giants.
She was very interested in the other murals and patterns in the main hall, and even wanted to make rubbings of them.
Kamishiro understood her fervor perfectly. "The Snow Peak Temple has stood atop the snow-capped mountain for ten thousand years. The specific human group that built the temple is unknown, but it must have been people who worshipped Regigigas."
"They shouldn't be our ancestors."
Zhulan shook her head.
The people of the gods were a group of people who devoted themselves to worshiping Arceus, and most of the ruins they left behind are related to Arceus.
While the Snow Peak Temples are similar in style, their details are completely different.
Shinjiro said, "Sinnoh still has many undiscovered ruins. I plan to bring them to light again. If the champion sees any familiar artifacts on the market, please go easy on them."
"The past belongs to every modern person, and no one can possess it all. But I hope you can take good care of it and not let it be destroyed in modern times after being passed down for thousands of years."
Zhu Lan only offered a reminder regarding these words.
In the Pokémon world, anyone has the right to excavate historical sites. For example, in the original series, a bunch of people came to dig up the Great Fool Valley after hearing that fossils were found there.
Even Xiao Mao came over to join in, and then dug up a fossilized poop, which has been ridiculed ever since.
Zhu Lan certainly disagreed with Jin Dai's actions, but there was nothing she could do to stop it.
A few moments.
The three left the main hall.
Before the palace doors closed, Kashiwagi turned to look at Regigigas deep inside, vaguely sensing that the other was also looking at him.
He nodded slightly to show his respect.
After all, he's the father of my five Pokémon, so even though I almost got beaten up, I still had to show him the proper manners.
"Hey~ Chirp~ Chirp..."
Boom!
The temple doors closed, completely cutting off Regigigas's voice.
Kamishiro said, "You two are probably preparing to start investigating the ghosts and monsters on the snowy night, right? If there's anything we can do to help, please don't hesitate to ask."
"Okay, we won't be polite."
Kashiwagi agreed, even though he felt that Kamishiro probably wouldn't be of much help.
They returned to the hotel together.
The video of the Titans civil war was also uploaded online, and Rin started watching it without hesitation.
"A very interesting battle. Will I have the chance to witness them?"
"Yes, we do now. But it's uncertain when the time comes."
Kashiwagi had already decided who to choose, but the cunning and treacherous man was unwilling to reveal it so early.
Zhu Lan smiled and said, "I'll be looking forward to it."
Not long after the video was uploaded, Minoru Yama called again, asking him why he hadn't told him about such a big project.
"It was a decision made purely by chance. Besides, if we were to do any publicity, we would definitely have to inform Mr. Kamishiro in advance, right?"
The reasons for cypress wood are quite compelling.
Minoru Yama: "...Never mind, just one more thing: the Seishui Ecological Research Institute has decided to build a branch near your house. And that travel photographer, Shali, she's here too."
Inviting Sally to Platinum Silver Mountain was Bai Mu's decision.
He specifically informed Alola Meowth, asking them to help entertain the visitors if they came.
"Okay, I see."
"Get out! I'm not your subordinate!"
"You're my older brother, okay? You're my good older brother, alright?"
Being your older brother is really tough; you have to be more diligent than a babysitter or a servant.
The phone hangs up.
Yamamoto has been increasingly resentful lately, which shows that his actions have indeed kept him extremely busy.
However, Kashiwagi believed that Yamaminori would definitely be able to find a second person to back him up.
He looked out the window; the sky had turned completely white, and the temperature was gradually dropping.
I hope the snowy night will come soon, and I hope this trip goes smoothly.
Bai Mu clasped his hands together and bowed devoutly.
During dinner.
Regice found a time when Cynthia wasn't around and, together with Registeel, escorted Regirock away.
About ten minutes later, the three Divine Pillars returned.
The intact ice pillars and steel pillars will bring back the rock pillars that have been broken into pieces.
Kashiwagi felt a chill run down his spine. Sure enough, the most ruthless people in the world are still brothers. Fortunately, the Stone Pillar has extremely strong self-healing ability, so even if he is shattered into pieces, he can still recover.
Of course, he couldn't help but complain to the icicle and the steel pillar, "How could you hit them so hard!"
"Chirp chirp chirp—hey! Chirp! Cluck!"
"Beep beep beep—hey! Chirp! Hiss!"
"They said they couldn't help themselves; Regirock kept laughing while he was being beaten, brazenly provoking them."
"..."
Kashiwagi looked at the shattered Regirock on the ground, and the pity in his eyes vanished.
You can't blame anyone else for that.
-
It was as if I could hear his wish.
That night.
A continuous heavy snowfall blanketed Xuefeng City, turning the already snow-covered city into a vast expanse of white.
Suddenly there was a knock on the door of the cypress room.
"How do you plan to investigate?" Zhu Lan appeared outside the door.
Kashiwagi smiled and said, "Weren't you already prepared?"
Zhu Lan, who usually wears a trench coat, was now wearing a down jacket, wrapped up like a dumpling, clearly ready to go out.
She said, "Shall we set off then?"
The two parties quickly reached an agreement and moved from the hotel to the Pokémon Center.
Since it has been determined that Darkrai was responsible, we need to find out its location.
However, Xuefeng City covers a vast area.
With the blizzard providing cover, searching Darkrai by two people alone would be like looking for a needle in a haystack.
Kashiwagi said, "We can use the power of Pokémon."
He sent multiple mobile phones to infiltrate the network and sent Regice to high places in Snowpeak City to look for unusual temperature changes outside of indoor environments.
Zhu Lan pondered how she could help, but realized that she didn't really have any good solutions for the blizzard.
The only option is to do a manhunt with Garchomp.
Kashiwagi himself certainly wouldn't be idle either, releasing Gengar, Dragapult, and other Pokémon that could move in the current weather conditions.
Their trip to the Pokémon Center wasn't for nothing.
Cynthia, as the Sinnoh Champion, received a list of young children from Snowpeak City from Nurse Joy.
Multi-faceted mobile phones, using the network, focused on cameras near these homes.
however.
As dawn approached and the snow began to fall, the two still hadn't found anything.
Let alone Darkrai, I've barely seen any Ghost-type Pokémon.
The all-powerful Dralongaru secretly went to the Spirit Realm of Snowpeak City again, but unfortunately, he still couldn't find any clues about Darkrai.
Could it be that they've misunderstood, and Darkrai doesn't exist, but ghosts do?
"It's okay, it's only the first day."
Undeterred, Bai Mu said to Zhu Lan, "You've worked hard. Please go back and get some rest."
"Ah."
Zhu Lan nodded.
Although her physique was also very strong, it was not as special as Kashiwagi's. After searching with Garchomp all night, she was extremely tired.
A little embarrassed, Bai Mu sent Lucky Egg to give Zhu Lan a massage.
I imagine she'll take a bath before going to sleep.
With his abundant mental energy, he stayed at the Pokémon Center, waiting for someone to come during the day to inquire if any ghosts or monsters had kidnapped people on snowy nights.
turn out--
No.
The reason why the urban legend of ghosts and monsters on snowy nights remains a legend is that it does not happen often and is harmless.
So when it snowed again that night, Kashiwagi and Takenari searched all night long.
Still, nothing was gained.
Undeterred, the two waited another night.
"Something's not right," Kashiwagi muttered to himself. According to the plot, something should have happened the night they arrived.
Zhu Lan said, "Could it be that our actions have caused Darkrai to be unwilling to show himself?"
Although the two didn't exactly make a big fuss, they did search for three nights.
If Darkrai were to discover this, it certainly wouldn't appear so easily.
Kashiwagi said, "In that case... we won't go out tonight, we'll just let Polygon II monitor it."
"Ok!"
Zhu Lan expressed her agreement.
She hasn't been idle these past few days, gathering more information about the ghosts and monsters in the snowy night to confirm exactly when they will appear.
The timing is indeed locked in these few months of winter.
why?
Why does Darkrai insist on being active in winter? Is it to use blizzards to conceal its form?
If it wasn't Darkrai, then what Pokémon could have caused all of this?
The bamboo orchid search yielded no answer.
All she could do was wait, wait for Bai Mu to find a solution.
The two enjoyed a rare warm evening, and unsurprisingly, nothing happened that day.
"Waiting like this feels like a complete waste of time."
Multi-faceted Phone said, "Why don't we just go to Crescent Island instead? It would save us from waiting in vain for some snowy night ghost that we don't even know if it's real or not."
Looking at the heavy snowfall outside the window, Bai Mu said, "Let's wait two more days. If they don't show up after the snow stops, we'll leave."
The heavy snow is expected to last for two more days, during which time Xuefeng City will experience another short period of outdoor activities.
Time flies by like flowing water.
One night, the snow suddenly stopped before eight o'clock, and by ten o'clock the clouds in the sky had dispersed, revealing the bright moon.
Kashiwagi let out a breath. "Is it over?"
The week-long wait brought an ending he did not want to see.
I thought it would go smoothly like the trip to Steel Island, but I didn't expect to come up empty-handed.
He lay down on the bed helplessly, staring at the ceiling and lost in thought.
Thinking about it.
Cypress gradually fell asleep.
Outside the window, the moonlight illuminated the large bed, soft and gentle like flowing water, dappling the floor with a mottled pattern.
The cypress tree's face was covered in silver light, as if it had cleansed his appearance, revealing a holy demeanor.
The city was shrouded in white fog, as if invisible life was moving through it.
The clock by the bedside suddenly stopped.
Kashiwagi opened his eyes.
"……Um?"
He sat up, looked out the window, then at the Pokémon surrounding him, and keenly sensed that something was wrong.
"Hyperion? Porygon II? Lucky Egg?"
No response.
Every Pokémon on the bed was sleeping soundly.
He took out a Poké Ball to check on Steelix and Aggron, and found that they were also asleep.
The same attitude of being unable to be woken up no matter how much you call them.
Only the three Divine Pillars remained awake.
"Dududu-"
"Buzzing—"
"Chi chi chi——"
"Alright, I can't understand without Polygon II." Kashiwagi placed his hand on the chest of the rock pillar and communicated with it using his Divine Heart.
But nothing was found, and the three Divine Pillars had no idea what had happened.
Kashiwagi put all his Pokémon back into their Poké Balls, looked at his Porygon phone which was still usable but no longer had Porygon II, and went outside to knock on Cynthia's door next door.
Soon.
Zhu Lan opened the door, her face also showing a hint of seriousness.
"Your Pokémon?"
"Yes, everyone except Regice and the others is asleep."
Kashiwagi nodded, "The kind that can't be woken up."
Zhu Lan said, "It shouldn't be just us experiencing this. Have you contacted anyone outside?"
"not yet."
"The internet is down. Someone must have sabotaged the signal base station."
Zhu Lan shook her phone, which had no signal.
Kashiwagi looked at his phone, and sure enough, the signal was blank. He frowned.
The two got dressed and went downstairs, only to find that there were quite a few people in the hotel lobby as well.
Upon inquiring, I discovered the situation was exactly the same as theirs!
