On the way back to the island, Luther asked Palkia to stop at White Wind City when they arrived.
Because it was so obvious, everyone near the mountains saw Palkia's appearance.
For a moment, the trainers thought some rare elf had appeared, and rushed to the location where Luther and his team landed.
But when the trainers arrived and planned to take out the Poké Ball to challenge Palkia, Palkia had already turned around and entered another space, leaving only a group of trainers looking around blankly for Palkia's body.
trace.
Baifeng City is famous for its geothermal resources.
When I met Yoshiro, it was not only because of Kikuno’s commission, but also because I wanted to soak in a hot spring in the winter.
Time has passed and Baifeng Town has been upgraded to a city. Because Yang Bai became the Four Heavenly Kings, the quality of the trainers here has improved rapidly.
The recent rookie kings selected by Whitewind Town seem to have a lot of influence in the Sinnoh trainer circle. This also makes many people think that Yangbai left some special training for the trainers of Whitewind City.
method.
Of course Luther didn’t come to Baifeng City to soak in the hot springs.
He came to fulfill his promise and pick up Xi Doran.
In terms of credit for this time traveling journey, Philo Mantis is undoubtedly the greatest.
Without her traveling thousands of miles, Luther, who fell somewhere else due to an inaccurate position, would have been tricked by Dialga into something big.
Dialga also knew this very well. After Arceus left, he looked at Luther sheepishly and found that Luther was also looking at him, so he immediately looked away guiltily.
In the subsequent confrontation with Qixin, Philomeni was even more brilliant because it came from the ultimate world and was not affected by the disappearance of Arceus, marking itself in the legend of Sinnoh.
Sydoran, who is also imprinted on the legendary stone tablet, has significantly different achievements from Philomeni.
If Philomeni gave him the confidence to make a comeback from a desperate situation, then Xi Dolan's final defection doomed Qixing's failure.
At that time, the Philometella had just experienced a night of galloping, and its physical strength was severely exhausted.
The powerful charm ability is basically useless in front of Bronze Bell, who is proficient in mental power and has strong hypnotic ability.
If you fight hard, under the command of Luther, one-on-one combat is not a problem.
One on two, the probability of defeat is just a matter of time. After all, as long as Qixin is not blind, he will see the weakness of Philomena.
The enslaved elves at the scene chose not to help each other, seemingly giving Luther and Chisin a fair chance to fight.
But being enslaved by nature, they will definitely choose to join the side with a greater chance of winning after one side shows signs of decline.
As long as Luther shows a slight decline, Qixin will be able to successfully threaten other elves to besiege Luther.
Luther, who has only one Philometella, is bound to be defeated.
After understanding this level, all the odds of winning or losing rested on Xi Doran.
This is also the reason why Luther chose to fake his death in the end, get Xidulan En in his hands, and then launch a counterattack.
It seemed that everything was under control, but when he was knocked away by the bronze bell, Luther had no idea at all.
In just a few words, Luther was good at teaching and instilled in Xidulan En the idea of returning from the lost path. At the same time, he also used Groudon as a "surprise" to attract Xidulan En to come closer to him.
But these are just words, not visible benefits.
I have said the most, but in the end, what we need to see is Xi Duolan's heart that yearns for freedom, her kindness that does not help others, and her determination to trust human beings again.
When the Poké Ball successfully conquered Sidoran, Luther was very curious as to what idea dominated Sidoran at that time, and he chose to fight side by side with him to win a battle with an unknown future.
However, things happened so fast that he didn't have time to ask, so he could only explain a few words in a hurry and return to the modern world.
If Sydoran can be found this time, Luther must ask him carefully.
As the group of people walked deeper and deeper, Citron suddenly pushed up his glasses and said in confusion: "Have you noticed that after walking for so long, we have moved away from the area with rich geothermal resources?"
This is actually what Xiaogang wants to say.
Because Arceus corrected the history of the error, now the entire Sinnoh has returned to the atmosphere that winter should have.
Snowflakes were falling one after another, and the cold wind was howling in the mountains and forests, making Luther and his group, who were wearing thin clothing because of the abnormal weather, tremble a little.
In this kind of weather, many people go to Shirakaze City to enjoy hot springs and related services.
There are also many people enjoying the wild fun at Muzhu Hot Spring outside Shirakaze City.
When they first entered this stretch of mountains, the group often saw some travelers bathing in the open-air hot springs in the mountains.
You can even see wild elves putting aside their prejudices and enjoying a small hot spring together.
But as the group of people walked deeper and deeper, there were fewer and fewer people on the road, and fewer and fewer elves could be seen.
Occasionally, I saw a few lone elves passing by. After Darkrai inquired, they also wanted to go to the hot springs to warm themselves.
From an area where vegetation is in full bloom and hot springs are spread all over, to a place where everything is withered and the mountains are covered in silver, the scene changes very obviously.
Xiaozhi, who traveled with Luther, clearly remembers when Luther asked Damos to take Xidulan En to an area with geothermal heat.
But moving forward...it doesn't look like there is floor heating.
Luther was also puzzled, but Damos personally told Arceus about this location.
Damos is a very smart man, and he knows very well that it is inappropriate to convey the location of Sidorane through words or pictures.
Over time, along with geological changes and changes in the natural environment, words and pictures will lose their accuracy.
Even if Luther obtained the words and pictures he passed down to later generations, he would not be able to deduce the location of Dolan.
Therefore, after having people send Sydoran away, he recorded the information along the way and informed Arceus, who then conveyed it to Luther.
At this time, the coordinates that came to Luther's mind were those given to him by Arceus before he left.
But after the long journey, everyone was dumbfounded.
The location of Sidorane marked by Damos is a cliff, with a vertical distance of 70 to 80 meters from the ground.
The place is covered with snow, and as far as the eye can see, it is desolate, and there is no feeling suitable for Xiduolan's habitat.
Luther looked at the scenery under the cliff in front of him, his expression constantly changing.
He felt guilty towards Xi Doran.
Among the promises Luther made to Sidroane at that time was to take him back to the island and live with Groudon.
Moreover, when he conquered it, he already had a premonition in his heart that he could not take away Xiduo Lan'en.
Because Dialga told him when he came that this trip was already overloaded.
Finally, and the most important point.
Although Luther told Sidorane that it didn't matter, the choice was his, but Sidorane finally found Damos and asked someone to accompany him.
Xi Doran chose to wait.
Damos must have told Xiduolan clearly how long the wait might take, but Xiduolan set off anyway.
If Sidorane chooses to give up because he can't wait for Luther, that's okay.
But if Xiduo Lan'en is stubborn and won't give up until Luther...
The more he thought about it, the more guilty he became. Luther looked at the sky melancholy, his expression gloomy.
Darkrai and Gardevoir have already started searching with their mental power on and under the cliff.
Bankiras and Xiaozhi's Sharptooth Land Shark are digging holes and are responsible for expanding the range of other elves' mental perception.
However, this practice was stopped by Citron after it continued for a while.
According to his inquiry into the geological survey report of Baifeng City, he found that the geothermal resources in this area had been exhausted a long time ago.
Even if Sidorane is sleeping in a geothermal environment, it will begin to move due to the depletion of geothermal resources.
After confirming that no one was around, Palkia appeared again.
"Do you need me to cut this place open?"
This proposal was outrageous. Luther watched Palkia who was eager to try and stopped him repeatedly.
But Luther, who rejected this proposal, was also very confused. What else could he do now?
"Sidoran is still here."
In the air not far away from Palkia, Dialga's head suddenly stretched out from the space passage.
After snorting disdainfully at Palkia, he flew to Luther.
"If I don't come, you will be led astray by Palkia."
The group looked at Dialga in surprise.
For a moment, they didn't know whether they should ask Dialga why he was here, or whether they should ask Dialga what Palkia had led astray?
Or...how did he know that Sidoran was still here?
As if he knew the doubts in everyone's minds, Dialga explained: "I feel that you are gathered here in my own world, so I stopped by to take a look."
No one believed it, but no one questioned it either.
Dialga, if you say yes, then so be it.
Luther asked urgently: "Sidoran is still here?"
"Yes, right under this cliff, deep underground!"
Being scolded by Dialga in person, Palkia became angry.
He made a harsh cry, and there was a strong tendency to start a fight if they disagreed.
Palkia used telepathy to yell at Dialga: "My judgment is correct. There is no environment for Xidulan to live here unless he is dead!"
Dialga also knew that Palkia's telepathy was about saving face. Otherwise, if he had an argument in front of so many people, and with Darkrai translating, would he still have the majesty of a god in the eyes of humans?
Taking care of Palkia's face, Dialga explained to Luther: "Actually, there is nothing wrong with Palkia's words. This place is indeed no longer suitable for Xidulan to live. Even if he sleeps, he will change due to the harsh environment.
Very weak."
"But...he is indeed here, but..."
Dialga suddenly laughed, and there seemed to be appreciation in his tone.
Since it was Dialga who said it, Luther didn't care. Bankilas and the Fang Shark went all out and dug straight down in the direction Dialga pointed.
Soon, everyone knew what Dialga meant.
Bankelas emerged from the ground, clutching a scarred and corroded Pokémon ball in his hand.
"I had nothing to do, so I went back and took a look. I can only say that he was stupid."
Dialga did not look at the Poké Ball, but sighed.
Over a long period of time, the geology outside Baifeng City has undergone tremendous changes.
Sidorane, who was sent here to wait for Luther, was surprised to find that the surrounding area was no longer suitable for him to live in during the long wait.
In the beginning, the area that could absorb geothermal heat was relatively close to him. Even if there was a slight change, Xiduolan could still go back and forth to replenish energy.
However, as time continues to pass, the geothermal energy outside Baifu City is basically squeezed into Baifu City and several places on the outskirts of the city due to various reasons.
If Sidoran wants to obtain geothermal energy, he can only enter areas with frequent human activities.
But once he enters an area with frequent human activities, he will face the possibility of being captured by humans and turning against them.
In desperation, Xi Dolan made a decision.
He dug a strong cave in the ground that was not prone to collapse, and then spent a long time consolidating the cave.
When Luther left Midina, he only left one thing with him, and that was the Poké Ball.
He knew what it felt like to stay in a Poke Ball, and he also listened to Gardevoir briefly talk about the functions of the Poke Ball before leaving.
After being mentally prepared, he put himself into the elf ball and began a long sleep.
He didn't know when Luther would run over to pick him up.
He never thought about whether he could come out of the elf ball if Luther forgot him.
He had waited too hard, had nowhere to spend the long hours, and had too many challenges to face.
He didn't want to give up, but he couldn't solve one problem after another.
In desperation, he, who was not very smart, chose the smartest way in his eyes and the stupidest way in Dialga's eyes to solve these problems.
Don't think about anything, just lock yourself up.
Then, I believe that Luther will really come to find me.
Maybe the stupid boy is blessed with stupidity. This trick allowed Xi Dolan to escape the natural disasters, military disasters, and man-made disasters that broke out in this land, and he managed to survive until today.
Seeing this elf ball, Luther's inner guilt suddenly burst out. He ran forward and quickly wanted to release Duo Lan'en.
From Luther's perspective, this was just half a day, but to Xi Dolanen, it was hundreds of thousands of sunrises and moonsets.
The wait this time was really too long for him.
The Poké Ball was completely damaged and the switch was completely useless.
"Darkrai!"
Darkrai immediately understood, wrapped the elf ball in mental power, and carefully destroyed the outer shell.
The Poké Ball, which had long been unable to support the structure, was shattered.
Along with a ray of white light, Xiduolan appeared in Luther's field of vision in a posture lying on the ground.
He was motionless, as if he couldn't feel any information from the outside world.
Luther was anxious, and just as he was about to take action, he noticed that Xi Doran's eyes were shaking slightly.
As if she had been in a dark room for a long time, Xiduolan wanted to open her eyes, but was frightened by the dazzling light and closed her eyes again.
After not obtaining energy for too long, Xiduolan was very weak at this time. He could no longer generate heat in his body and could not even assume a defensive posture. He just subconsciously stepped back, trying to escape from here.
He did not fully understand the situation, but remembered in a hazy state that he was waiting for Luther.
Now that the Poké Ball is broken and you have reached the ground, you need to run quickly to avoid being caught.
"Sidoran!"
Xi Doran, who was trying hard to dig a hole to escape, was stunned.
The long time made him forget a lot of things, and staying in the Poké Ball for a long time made his brain a little numb.
The familiar voice awakened his distant memory.
He thought again of the solar eclipse that occurred in an unknown year, and of the young man who suddenly appeared, promised him, and led him to resist Qixin and regain his freedom.
He also thought of Luther's appearance and what he said to himself when he was leaving.
Luther ran up and hugged Xi Doran, who was unable to dig a hole. He shed tears and said guiltily: "No need to run, it's me. I'm here to take you home."
"I will take you to play with Groudon when you get home. I will wake him up and let him replenish your body and bring you back to your peak state!"
Xiduo Lanen was stunned for a while, breathed a deep sigh of relief, and lay directly on the ground, motionless.
Now he is no different from the wind speed dog in Luther's family who always wants to knock Luther down.
