Chapter 78 The Guardians of the Celebration Armor—The Bronze Mirror Monster and the Bronze Bell
Xiaozhi was listening carefully.
"Powerful Drill! Please expand on it."
The old man from Fengtianmen said in a serious tone after discovering that Xiaozhi had successfully taken the bait.
"That's right, haven't you heard the legend about the earth dragon brother who defeated the evil Pokémon and turned into a real dragon after learning the powerful drill?"
"Real dragon!"
Xiaozhi's eyes were filled with golden light, as he was listening to the legend about the earth dragon brother told by the old man Fengtianmen with fascination.
"The story takes place in the early days of the existence of Padea Island. All life and production on the island are in ruins and are growing towards the sun. The people and Pokémon on it all coexist peacefully together until the evil Pokémon comes to grief. Tea and pots of horror have come to disturb the tranquility of this area..."
Suddenly, the old man of Fengtianmen stopped narrating, took out the remaining scroll that Xiao Zhiciao had, and looked at it. The words written on it were the words "Scroll of Curses", and he murmured in a low voice.
"Oh, not this version..."
"What are you talking about? Grandpa Feng Tianmen..."
The other party coughed slightly and continued speaking vaguely.
"Ahem..., that. Where did I say it? Oh...yes, the evil bronze mirror monster and the bronze bell..."
"Wait a minute, I remember you just said it was about coming to the Sad Tea and Horror Teapots..."
"Shut up, shut up... and listen quietly to the story!"
After the old man from Fengtianmen stopped Xiaozhi's question with a guilty conscience, he continued to make up his story.
"...Those evil Pokémon robbed the treasure that people used for harvest sacrifices. It was a piece of heroic armor from ancient times, called the Armor of Celebration. With the blessing of this treasure, the ancient heroes defeated all evil. Bringing peace to the Padian region... and this treasure has been preserved for future generations."
"Until evil strikes again, the celebratory armor that symbolizes peace is taken away by the Bronze Mirror Monsters. The continent that has lost its heroes and the protection of its treasures has also returned to darkness..."
"Finally, a younger brother of the earth dragon stepped forward, but he was unable to defeat the four hands with his two fists. He gradually fell behind in the battle with these evil bronze mirror monsters. At this critical moment, penetration is far stronger than direct attack. Zhen's powerful drill attack defeated them one by one. Only the last boss, Bronze Bell, was left. It was another hard battle, and Brother Tulong was a little helpless."
"At the critical moment of life and death, Brother Tulong, who learned to attack with powerful drills, transformed into a real dragon at this moment, waving his wings and slowly rising into the sky. His long body was winding and domineering. He won the fierce battle with the Bronze Bell. Successfully recapture the treasured armor to celebrate, and inherit the name of a hero.”
No one would believe such a false story full of errors, but Xiaozhi was so sincere that he listened to it intoxicated and his emotions became passionate, as if he also wanted to fight against the evil forces. look.
When the old man from Fengtianmen saw that Xiaozhi had been attracted by his story, he changed his tune and said.
"Since young man you don't want to properly carry out this once-in-a-century trial, then you can only..."
"I'm going! I'm going..."
Before the old man of Fengtianmen could finish his words, Xiaozhi could not wait to agree to this sudden trial.
A day had passed since this incident. Xiaozhi, Pikachu and his brother Tulong got lost in the valley.
"Strange! I was obviously following the route in the scroll, how could I get lost here? I can't even find the way back, I have no clue... I clearly promised to return to Xiaoqing and Pipa."
Just when Xiaozhi gave up on himself, half-leaning against the big rock, the scroll drooped in Xiaozhi's hand that was resting on the stone. Pikachu was looking sideways at the hanging half-scroll, looking carefully... Suddenly, Pikachu seemed to have discovered something, and reminded Xiaozhi loudly.
"Pika pika!"
"What's wrong, Pikachu?"
Pikachu motioned to Xiaozhi to pick up the scroll and look at it again, and Xiaozhi did as he was told. After picking it up and looking at it carefully, he still had no clue. Just when Xiaozhi was about to give up.
Pikachu stood upside down on its hands, signaling to Ash to turn around and take a look.
"What's wrong? Pikachu... do you want me to turn the scroll over? Even if it's the other way around..."
Xiaozhi didn't believe Pikachu's words at first, but when he turned the scroll over and looked at it, the map that he couldn't understand no matter how hard he looked at it, now became extremely clear and suddenly became enlightened.
Xiaozhi slapped himself on the forehead.
"Oh, it turns out that I misidentified the scroll. I said that I couldn't understand it no matter how I looked at it, and I couldn't understand it. ...At the fork in the road before, don't go down, do you want to go up? I knew……"
With that said, Xiaozhi rolled up the scroll and said to Pikachu and the others.
"I'm sorry, Pikachu, and Brother Tulong, it's my problem that made us stay here for a day and a night... Then let's work together to complete this trial!"
After a while, Xiaozhi and the others came to a fork in the valley halfway down the slope, muttering to themselves.
"Here, instead of going down, we have to go up..."
With that said, he led Pikachu and the others onto the right path, heading up the mountain road. From time to time, in front of them, the cave recorded in the scroll appeared.
Xiaozhi and the others were overjoyed, as if they had discovered a treasure, with golden light shining in their eyes, and they ran towards the cave excitedly.
Entering the cave, I found that there is a cave inside. Compared with the barren environment outside the cave, the environment in the cave is inside the mountain. The top of the cave is hollow and the sun shines down. It is bright even in the cave, and the semi-encircled mountain structure retains as much water as possible. There are plants growing quietly in the cave, full of green, and it looks like a paradise.
While Xiaozhi and the others were admiring it, his sharp eyes found that in the center of the cave, where the sunlight was shining unbiasedly, there was a rusty piece of armor. Under the reflection of the sunlight, it actually shone. Brilliant light.
Xiaozhi said excitedly.
"Is it possible that the remnant armor is the Celebration Armor recorded in the scroll? ... Great, I didn't expect to find it so easily, although I guess I just asked for it when I got lost before."
Suddenly, Xiaozhi also noticed something strange nearby. There were actually two or three bronze Pokémon, Bronze Mirror Monsters, appearing around there. They were waiting in full formation, obviously guarding the broken armor.
Xiaozhi didn't alert the snake at first. When the wild bronze mirror monsters didn't notice him, he squatted down and whispered.
"Why are there a group of wild bronze mirror monsters? Isn't this the same development as the legend of the earth dragon brother becoming a real dragon as told by Grandpa Feng Tianmen?"
Xiaozhi was dubious, but he had to go and retrieve the mission entrusted by the old man of Fengtianmen.
I saw Xiaozhi and Pikachu slowly getting up and walking out slowly, trying not to attract the attention of the surrounding Bronze Mirror Monsters as much as possible... After a while, they were under the gaze of the Bronze Mirror Monsters, Arriving in the middle of them, he gently took off the remaining armor on the stone pillar in the middle.
"I didn't expect it to go so smoothly..."
Just when Xiaozhi thought these wild bronze mirror monsters were ignoring them, after taking off the broken piece of armor, the originally unresponsive group of bronze mirror monsters suddenly became furious and made harsh sounds.
"Beep beep, beep beep..."
Xiaozhi and the others covered their ears in pain.
"What! This is... the metallic sound of the wild Bronze Mirror Monster. This sound is really harsh!"
Just when Xiaozhi and the others couldn't stand it anymore, they ordered Pikachu to fight back.
"Pikachu, use one hundred thousand volts!"
Pikachu's 100,000-volt attack came from its body, fell high, and landed on the wild Bronze Mirror Monsters, successfully beating them away.
Xiaozhi said happily.
"It seems that they are just ordinary wild bronze mirror monsters, not the legendary evil Pokémon..."
Suddenly, a small-scale earthquake shook around Xiaozhi and the others, causing Xiaozhi, who was holding his broken armor, to stagger and almost fall to the ground...
"This, what's going on..."
Suddenly, the messy gravel scattered around Xiaozhi and the others were surrounded by a burst of purple-red light, and then floated into the air... At the same time, floating in the air was a large bell lying quietly behind Xiaozhi.
I saw half of the big clock's body submerged in the ground, lying on the ground, with rust all over its body. The upward-climbing vines also covered the upper half of the big clock's body. At first glance, it was just an ordinary quilt. Abandoned rusty clock.
Only when it floated slowly did Xiaozhi and the others notice that this was no ordinary bell. They saw that it was also surrounded by the burst of purple light. During the process of rising, the vines and rust stains on its body were peeled off one by one. Down, revealing his true face, he pulled out from the half-covered ground, making a rumbling sound, and saw clearly that it was the Bronze Bell Pokémon - Bronze Bell.
"How could it be..., such a coincidence! Isn't this the same as the legend about Brother Tulong told by Grandpa Feng Tianmen?"
The sleeping Bronze Bell seemed to be awakened by the sound of Pikachu fighting just now. After waking up, he showed his true form. He saw that the other party was angry, and his whole body was flushed with anger...
Facing the bronze bell that might attack, Pikachu immediately rushed forward and stood in front of Xiaozhi and his brother Tulong. He opened his posture and was ready for battle at any time.
Xiaozhi thought about it and called Pikachu back.
"Pikachu, come back!"
"Pickup?"
Pikachu turned his head and looked at Ash with some confusion.
"Since the current situation is just like the story told by Grandpa Feng Tianmen, then I should also respond to the situation and let Brother Tulong come out to challenge!...Brother Tulong, can you do it?"
With that said, he turned to ask his brother Tulong who was standing aside.
"Brother, brother!"
I saw that younger brother Tulong was also full of fighting spirit and rushed out without hesitation, coming to the opposite side of the confrontation with Bronze Bell.
Suddenly, the Bronze Bell took the lead in launching an attack. The stone that was levitated by its telekinesis turned at the same time, aimed in the direction of Tu Long's younger brother, and was quickly thrown out, landing on Tu Long's younger brother.
There was a "bang" sound, stirring up layers of smoke and dust. Just after the bronze bell thought that its attack hit the opponent,...when the smoke and dust dispersed to reveal its true appearance, the stone after the impact shattered into pieces, and only rubble was seen on the ground. The only figure is the younger brother Tulong.
Just when Bronze Zhong was wondering, he saw a large cave in the middle of the gravel. It turned out that Brother Tulong successfully escaped with his digging skills just a second after he was hit by the stone.
When the Bronze Bell understood and came back, the missing Tulong brother broke out of the ground behind it...
"Come on, brother Tulong!"
Brother Tulong hit Bronze Zhong on the back without Bronze Bell noticing...
"Beep buzz..."
The bronze bell that was successfully hit groaned in pain, staggered, and fell to the ground.
Xiaozhi planned to pursue the victory and gave the order.
"Brother Tulong, continue to use burrowing attacks and pursue!"
Brother Tulong immediately jumped up and dug into the ground to sneak. As it dug out the soil, Brother Tulong's figure had disappeared into the earth... Suddenly, the movement of Brother Tulong's digging stopped. Behind him, Before the drill-shaped tail could hide in, it was exposed above the ground...
"What's wrong, brother Tulong?"
Under Xiaozhi's question, the Tulong brother still twisted his body vigorously, stopped moving forward, and retreated if he did not advance. Instead, his body gradually emerged from the ground.
Watching the Tulong brother soar into the sky, his whole body emitted a purple-red light. At the same time, floating into the air was the bronze bell that fell to the ground. It turned out that after the opponent fell to the ground, he immediately regained consciousness and responded, and then counterattacked, using telekinesis to control Tulong's younger brother and move him out of the ground.
Slowly, he floated Brother Tulong to the front of Bronze Bell. Bronze Zhong stared at Brother Tulong angrily. Brother Tulong looked embarrassed, with cold sweat dripping from his forehead.
Immediately afterwards, Bronze Zhong lowered his thick arm and moved it to his chest. For a moment, under the action of rubbing his arms, a dark sphere appeared out of thin air. It was the shadow ball attack launched by Bronze Zhong.
Xiaozhi immediately said worriedly.
"Brother Tulong, run away!"
Facing the dangerous approach, controlled by telekinesis, Tulong brother took to the air, twisting his body hard in the air, struggling to break free, but the opponent's telekinesis attack had tightly restricted Tulong brother's ability to move. , can't escape for a while.
Facing the shadow ball attack that was about to be launched so close, Xiaozhi was also anxious and his mind was spinning rapidly.
"Brother Tulong!... It's not good, what should I do? What should I do..."
Suddenly, Xiaozhi had an idea and immediately ordered.
"Use Harsh!"
At the critical moment, after hearing Xiaozhi's order, Tulong brother immediately reacted with his body to save himself. He opened his mouth and shouted, and a harsh sound came out of his mouth. For a moment, a sonic boom-like attack hit the bronze bell. It exploded in front of me.
Harsh and loud, with strong penetrating power, the bronze bell was facing the sudden resistance and attack, and its body was resisting uncomfortably. Its arms shook in the air, and the formed shadow ball made waves that did not exist in the established program.
Suddenly, under the influence of the harsh sound, Bronze Bell could no longer withstand the harsh sound attack launched by the younger brother Tulong. The shadow ball in his hand also exploded in the hands of Bronze Zhong under the waves.
The smoke filled the air, and Brother Tulong and the bronze bell were both blown away and retreated...
