Regichkas's slightly dull voice sounded in Hu Yang's mind.
The moment he heard this question, Populus euphratica realized that the huge creature with the characteristic of slow start under him had finally discovered him.
"I am... Populus euphratica, a human who returned here from the distant future." He replied.
Hearing these two words, Rejichikas' tone revealed a trace of confusion: "Populus euphratica... human?"
Hu Yang: "Yes, humans, they haven't appeared in this world yet, but you will see them in the future."
"Oh." Regichkas responded. He didn't know what he was thinking. He didn't speak, but he didn't raise his hand to push down the little guys standing above his head.
In the distance on the sea, Groudon, who has returned to his original form, is still fighting against Kyogre, who has returned to his original form.
Life in this era has not yet begun to be born, and the flowers, plants and trees have not yet begun to take shape. The world is filled with extremely rich natural energy.
Groudon, which represents the earth, and Kyogre, which represents the ocean, continue to absorb this energy. The energy pours into their bodies, turning into the power of the earth and the power of the ocean, emerging from their bodies in the form of golden lines.
out.
This battle shook the world.
The entire sky was dyed an apocalyptic black, with torrential rain, thunder and lightning, and strong winds sweeping past.
During the battle, the most primitive land and ocean began to be born.
The magma under Groudon's feet melted with the sea water and turned into solid earth. Heavy rains in the sky continued to fall, and the sea level rose accordingly, submerging the newly born land again.
It goes round and round, endlessly.
I don't know how long this battle between nature will last. Regichkas let go of the land behind him and stood silently watching the terrible scene.
Under the sky shrouded by dark clouds, Populus euphratica could not tell whether it was day or night.
I don't know how long it took, until only one-half of the food brought by Populus euphratica was eaten, and the movements of the two ancient creatures revealed a hint of exhaustion.
Populus euphratica did not let the Ancient Moon Bird stop them. He just took out his camera and recorded the scene.
Because there are no humans in this world yet.
And it was precisely because of the battle between Groudon and Kyogre that this world took shape.
Some time passed, and this unprecedented war finally came to an end.
Because a huge amount of natural energy was consumed in the battle, the two Pokémon lost their original return form and turned into the ordinary form that Populus euphratica is most familiar with.
The dark clouds began to fade away, and a beam of light without a trace of haze shone through the clouds on the newly born earth.
Groudon stood on it, looking at Kyogre in the ocean with scars all over his body.
After a long time, as if they had reached some kind of agreement, the two Pokémon silently turned around and walked in the opposite direction.
Populus euphratica knew that when the battle was over, they would return to their caves to rest.
Groudon walked along the continent formed during the battle to the deepest point, while Kyogre sank into the sea and quickly disappeared.
After these two Pokémon left, Regichkas, who had been motionless for several days, started to move.
I saw it walking to the land created by Groudon's power, possessing it slightly, grabbing the land tightly with its thick and powerful arms, and then slowly raised its feet.
In the violent "rumbling" sound, this most primitive piece of land was forcibly dragged forward for a certain distance.
It started again.
Populus euphratica looked back at the piece of land and didn't know which region in the future this place corresponded to.
Hoenn? Kanto? Johto? Or Sinnoh?
Nobody knows.
Perhaps it will be a long, long time in the future before humans and Pokémon can appear on this land.
But now, not yet.
Hu Yang turned back to the tent and began to count the remaining supplies with Gengar.
He was originally anxious to go back, but after seeing the scene of Groudon and Kyogre creating the earth and ocean, his attention was attracted by it.
But now, their battle is over, and it's time for me to continue to think of ways to return to the future.
"The food left is only enough to last for two months." Populus euphratica thought to herself.
It has been nearly a month since they arrived at this place.
While thinking, Hu Yang came outside and patted Rejichikas on the head hard with his hand.
Rejichikas' reaction was still very slow. It took him a long time to feel Hu Yang's movements, and his walking figure paused.
Populus euphratica knew it had noticed him, so he asked: "Big guy, have you seen other lives in this world?"
Regichkas continued to walk forward while replying: "They."
It refers to the fight between Groudon and Kyogre not long ago.
Because the communication was via telepathy, Rejichikas' thoughts appeared in Hu Yang's mind without any obstacles.
Therefore, without any further explanation from the other party, Populus euphratica could understand its meaning and continued to ask: "Apart from those two?"
Regichkas raised his head and looked at the sky: "I've seen it there."
Hu Yang was stunned for a moment, and then realized that Rejichikas should be referring to Rayquaza.
"Is there any more?" Hu Yang asked again.
Regichicas stopped, thought about it seriously, and then replied: "You."
Hu Yang: "..."
Okay, he knows the answer.
Regichkas has only seen Groudon Kyogre and Rayquaza, but has never seen the twin gods of space and time and Arceus.
Regarding this answer, Populus euphratica could not help but feel a little regretful.
Looking at Rejichikas walking back and forth alone in the empty sea, Hu Yang sighed and asked casually: "You are alone, don't you feel lonely?"
Regichicas was silent for a long time, with a trace of incomprehension in his tone: "Loneliness...what is it?"
Hu Yang: "..."
"It's a very bad thing," he replied.
Regichicas became more and more confused: "I don't understand."
After saying that, it continued to drag the land behind it.
In the blink of an eye, more than ten days have passed, and compared to before, the world still has not changed at all.
After a brief exchange with Regichicas that day, Populus euphratica began to ride the fire-breathing dragon and continued his journey of search in this empty world.
He would set out in the early morning and return to Regiccas in the evening. Occasionally he would chat with Regiccas during lunch.
But Regiccas is very simple and knows nothing, so in the end it often turns into Populus euphratica and Gengar talking, while Regiccas is listening.
Maybe in Regiskas' view, they are so small like a chirping bird?
Oh no, Regichicas probably doesn't know what the bird means either.
Just like that, a few more days passed.
Hu Yang, who still couldn't find a way to go back, couldn't help but feel anxious.
Counting the time, it has been more than two months since he came to this place.
Perhaps feeling the anxiety in its heart, Ancient Moon Bird's mood began to become agitated.
It tried to fly out and help its trainer find a way back, but it returned in vain every time.
Under this situation, Gu Yueniao's stupid eyes also showed a hint of dejection.
"Gah."
Ancient Moon Bird is not omnipotent.
Populus euphratica knew about this very early.
It is a Pokémon with modifiers.
Although the Ancient Moon Bird is very powerful, it is still essentially an Ancient Moon Bird, just like those Ancient Moon Birds in the Galar region that spend all day catching barracuda in the river. They are silly and happy.
According to the research of Pokémon scholars and doctors, the IQ of Pokémon such as Moonbird is not as high as that of Gardevoir. It can be said that their IQ is very similar to their appearance.
Under such circumstances, Gu Yuenniao was able to use his limited IQ to try to do those things for him and protect him from harm, which was already great.
In Populus euphratica's view, it is an excellent, outstanding, and the best ancient moon bird in the world.
The Ancient Moon Bird went to retrieve Rayquaza in its beak, probably because it could feel Rayquaza's aura.
When Populus euphratica was asked to find stones, what it brought back was not the target Populus euphratica wanted, but "stones" in a general scope.
This is because the Ancient Moon Bird does not know the specific type of stone.
It only knows "stones". In its view, whether it is an evolution stone, a meteorite, or a prop mega stone, they are all stones, so it took back all the stones it could see.
But Populus euphratica will not dislike the Ancient Moon Bird just because it "can't do it".
Because he was very happy that the Ancient Moon Bird could always accompany him and protect it.
As for Dialga whom Hu Yang wants to find this time...
Its location is not in the real world, but in a special dimension.
Perhaps it is for this reason that the Ancient Moon Bird cannot feel its breath and cannot find its location.
It was rare to see the Ancient Moon Bird like this, so Hu Yang smiled and comforted him: "Don't be sad, let me think of a solution."
The ancient moon bird cried out stupidly: "Gah."
Holding the Ancient Moon Bird in his arms, Populus euphratica stood on top of Lejichikas' head, looking at the sky in the distance.
The weather in ancient times was much worse than in modern times.
This can be seen from the lightning that is so exaggerated that it almost tears the sky apart.
"Perhaps the Lugia Phoenix King and the Three Divine Birds, who are in charge of air currents and ocean currents, were born for this purpose." Hu Yang thought to himself.
The Phoenix King flaps its wings to bring down warm currents to the world, the Three Divine Birds maintain weather changes, and Lugia controls the flow of ocean currents and winds.
Without them, the world in the future is likely to become what it is now.
etc!
Looking at the scene of lightning piercing the sky and tearing the sky apart, Hu Yang suddenly thought, if the power is strong enough, can it tear a hole from the real world and enter the gap of time and space?
It doesn’t matter that Gengar and the others are not strong enough. He is also accompanied by the Ancient Moon Bird who can use Time Roar and Arcon Split!
If he can tear apart space...then he can re-enter the space-time rift!
And even if Dialga is not found in the gap in time and space, he can jump to another point in time through there.
As long as he finds traces of the existence of human civilization, whether it is the ancient Sinnoh region or the ancient Chengdu region.
Then he can follow the clues to find the Alfu ruins, Tianguan Mountain and the Spear Pillar!
Then summon Dialga there and return to the era of his life!
Looking at the sad-looking Pokémon such as Gengar and Gardevoir around him, Hu Yang said happily: "I have a way to go back!"
Upon hearing this, several Pokémon stood up immediately.
Hu Yang looked around, his eyes resting on the piece of land being dragged behind Regichkas, and said: "We have to get out of here first."
It would be bad if the full power of the Ancient Moon Bird affected Regichkas.
When they heard that they could go back, several Pokémon were very excited. Hu Yang packed up their things with them, and then rode Charizard and landed on the land behind Regichkas.
At this time, Regichicas seemed to feel something.
It stopped, made a huge and dull sound, slowly turned around, lowered its head and searched for the figures of those little guys on the land.
As soon as Populus euphratica landed, he saw Regichicas walking towards the land.
With every step it takes, its size will shrink by one point, until its entire body is standing on land, and its size has become the size of an adult human being with a height of two meters.
Hu Yang was not surprised. Looking at Regichicas's actions, he remembered that he hadn't said goodbye to this big guy yet, so he said seriously: "We are leaving."
The dots in front of Regichkas flickered slowly: "Where...are you going?"
Hu Yang: “Back to the time I lived in.”
Regichkas asked in confusion: "The era when humans...lived?"
Hu Yang was a little surprised: "Yes."
"There, where?"
"In the far, far future."
Regichicas looked at the little life in front of him that he had never seen before, calling itself a "human being".
At this moment, the emotion called curiosity arose in its heart for the first time.
This big guy asked very simply and straightforwardly:
"Can I... go and have a look?"
Hearing this, Hu Yang was stunned for a moment.
Is Regichicas going to... go with him?
What about this world? Its work of dragging the earth has not yet been completed, nor has it created the three pillars of Regice, Regischiru, and Regirock.
If you take it away, won't this move cause a series of butterfly effects in the future?
At that time, will areas like Johto, Kanto, and Sinnoh still exist?
Moreover, in his future, the Three Holy Pillars exist.
If Regichicas is taken away this time, then the future he returns to...
Realizing the seriousness of the matter, Hu Yang couldn't help frowning. Looking at the big guy in front of him, he could only shake his head and said: "You will see it, but I can't take you away this time."
"oh."
Regichkas responded dully, looking a little depressed.
Seeing this scene, Hu Yang thought of Regichkas sleeping in the Snow Peak Temple in the future, and said to him: "Get some sleep. When you wake up, you will be able to see humans. They... are a kind of
A very magical life.”
Sleep. These two words appeared in Regichkas's mind.
Seeing this, Hu Yang didn't say much, but turned around and said to Gu Yuenniao: "Try it, use all your strength to use the Yakon Splitting Slash!"
Compared with Time Roar, Space Splitting Slash seems to be more capable of tearing open a rift in time and space.
Hearing this, the Ancient Moon Bird made a "quacking" sound, flapped its wings and flew into the air, and started to accumulate power facing directly ahead.
An extremely large and terrifying energy condensed on its wings, and then transformed into a huge purple light wing.
As the energy condenses, the light wing changes at a speed visible to the naked eye until it reaches a certain size.
At this moment, the surrounding space could not help but become distorted.
Seeing this scene, Hu Yang couldn't help but said: "It works!"
The next second, the dark purple light wings turned into two huge cross-shaped light blades, speeding forward.
The speed of this Aerial Splitting Slash was extremely fast, and soon a crack appeared in the originally stable space.
"Kacha!"
Immediately afterwards, as if something was broken, a violent explosion occurred in the sub-space split.
The shock wave of the explosion tore apart the space in mid-air, causing a familiar crack in time and space to appear there.
Populus euphratica did not stay here longer, and rode the fire-breathing dragon to the sky.
Looking at the rift in time and space below, he turned around and looked at Regichkas, who was standing on the empty land and looking up.
"Can I see you again?" asked Regichkas.
"Of course!" Hu Yang looked at Regichicas and still answered the same: "After moving the ground under your feet, take a nap. When you wake up, you can see me."
"oh."
"goodbye!"
Hu Yang waved to Regichkas, then took a deep breath and jumped straight into the space-time gap below.
After a while, the crack disappeared and the space returned to its original appearance.
Regichkas looked at that place and did not move for a long time.
After a long time, it started to move, restored its huge body and walked into the sea, dragging the earth behind it and walking forward slowly.
Every time you take a step, there will be a huge and dull sound.
This voice echoed in this empty world. For Regichkas, nothing seemed to have changed now compared to before.
It just lacks a few little lives chattering above its head.
－－－－－－Digression－－－－－
A long time later, Regichkas woke up from his deep sleep and saw human beings on the earth.
Because the human being whom I met many years ago holds great goodwill towards the new life that appears in this world.
In order to help them, it created many giant companions out of stone, ice, steel, lightning, and dragons.
