Chapter 329: Regigigas
Huo La puts down the tea cup in his hand, his tone regaining solemnity, and looks at Shan Kui, saying: "By the way, Shan Kui Field Master, I came this time mainly to resolve the interdimensional energy issue on the Warrior Braviary King. May I ask, does one have to battle when approaching its nest?"
Hearing this, Shan Kui immediately suppresses the cute demeanor she had just shown, the smile fading from her face, replacing it with a serious expression, and solemnly explains: "It's not that approaching the Warrior Braviary King requires a battle; rather, to enter the Snow Peak Temple you must first defeat me."
Huo La is startled, then quickly recovers, instantly understanding the deeper meaning in Shan Kui's words.
Approaching the Warrior Braviary King itself has no obstruction; it soars in the high skies year‑round, and as long as you are willing, you can get close at any time.
But the key is that the Warrior Braviary King's nest lies at the summit of the Snow Peak Temple, and to reach the nest one must pass through the Snow Peak Temple, and Shan Kui is precisely the one who guards the Snow Peak Temple; the only way in is to defeat her.
"Ahem, ahem, Shan Kui Field Master, may I interject!" Xiao Zhao, holding Solgaleo, raises a hand curiously, eyes sparkling, "What is this Snow Peak Temple for? Is it the same as the Sinnoh Temple? Does it also worship the Time‑Space Dual Gods?"
Shan Kui tilts her head, thinks for a moment, then her expression grows even more solemn, and she says gravely: "No, it is not a place that worships the Time and Space Gods; it is a place that worships Hisui's own god."
"Huh? Hisui's own god?" Xiao Zhao instantly covers her mouth, her face full of shock, and even the Solgaleo in her arms is startled by her reaction, lifting its little head to look curiously.
"Regigigas!" Huo La looks at Shan Kui, mutters subconsciously, his eyes showing a hint of understanding.
Shan Kui is startled, her eyes widen, and she looks at Huo La in surprise: "How did you know?! This matter is known only to our tribe; how could you know the name Regigigas?"
Huo La is also taken aback, turns to Shan Kui, his face full of puzzlement: "Shan Kui Field Master… you don't know I come from the future? I thought Captain Gangshi and the others should have told you about me."
"From the future!?" Shan Kui, like a cat whose tail was stepped on, leaps up from her chair, eyes bulging, face full of disbelief.
But the next second, as if she recalled something, she slowly sits back down, scratches her head, and chuckles: "Hehe, I rarely go out; Kuhan Huangdi is cold, and they aren't eager to come chat with me, so I haven't heard of you."
Huo La: "......"
He rubs his forehead, a sigh of helplessness, thinking that even this Shan Kui Field Master, being a 'homebody', doesn't know such an important matter.
Beside him, Xiao Zhao can't help but cover her mouth and giggle, and Solgaleo also lets out a soft, mellow cry, as if echoing.
Shan Kui doesn't mind Huo La's helplessness; instead, a hint of delight flickers in her eyes, and she quickly asks: "But since you know Regigigas, it seems that people of later ages should all know it, right?"
Huo La gently nods, then shakes his head, patiently explaining: "It's not that everyone knows. Regarding the Regigigas Pokemon, researchers, administrators of large Pokemon institutions, and some senior Trainers in later ages know of it, but ordinary people have no idea such a god‑level Pokemon exists."
Shan Kui, thoughtful, nods, her tone flat: "That's normal; after all, it's a god, it can't be known by everyone."
"Huo La, Shan Kui Field Master, you two have said so much, I can't understand any of it!" Xiao Zhao can't help but interject, her face full of grievance and curiosity, "What exactly is Regigigas? What is this god you speak of?"
"Ah, sorry, sorry, I forgot you!" Shan Kui quickly offers an apologetic smile, then clears her throat and begins to explain patiently, her tone bearing a hint of reverence for the god: "Xiao Zhao, listen to me. In this world, besides the Creator God Arceus and the Time‑Space Dual Gods, there exist countless other gods. And the Regigigas worshipped in the Snow Peak Temple is the god that created Hisui."
"Huh? It created Hisui?" Xiao Zhao's eyes widen, her face full of disbelief.
"Exactly." Shan Kui nods, her gaze becoming distant, and slowly recounts the ancient legend, "Legend has it that Regigigas used Hisui's unique ice mountains, hard rocks, and scorching lava to forge Pokemon that resembled itself."
"It is said that after it made those Pokemon from various materials, it used massive ropes to drag the scattered continents together, stitching and shaping them piece by piece, ultimately creating the Hisui Land we now inhabit."
While Shan Kui speaks, her eyes occasionally drift toward Huo La, as if confirming whether what she says is correct.
Huo La lightly nods, his face showing a hint of understanding — the later‑age legends about Sinnoh (Hisui) differ little from what Shan Kui described.
Xiao Zhao's eyes go wide as she listens, clutching Solgaleo, whispering softly: "So that's how Hisui came to be… Regigigas is amazing!"
Huo La adds gently: "According to later research, not only Hisui; the entire world's continents are essentially formed by Regigigas and the Pokemon it created, dragged and gathered piece by piece."
"What?" This time, not only Xiao Zhao covers her mouth in shock, but even the usually composed Shan Kui suddenly widens her eyes, her face full of disbelief.
"Then… doesn't that mean Regigigas created the entire world's continents?"
"That's not quite right." Huo La gently shakes his head, his tone tinged with contemplation, "I tend to think that the land of the Pokemon World first gave birth to Regigigas."
His gaze passes through the camp's window, looking out at the pitch‑black night.
Amid the wind and snow, the towering, hidden‑in‑darkness Snow Peak Temple stands silently in the distance.
Huo La knows clearly — if nothing goes wrong, that giant god that drags continents is now sleeping deep within the temple's core.
