Chapter 340

The only pity was that in the past half month, Dreepy had eaten the two types of gems he had spent all his savings to buy, which would have lasted a month at the previous rate.

With resources running low and the basic goals mostly achieved, Su Hao decided to leave the Electric Canyon.

It was now May 28th, and Su Hao planned to set off tomorrow for the border of the United States Alliance, then have Articuno, who should know the way, take him back to the Shenzhou Alliance.

Articuno said that although He wasn't very good at traveling, according to His estimation, arriving within the Shenzhou Alliance within a day shouldn't be a problem.

After arriving on his own turf, Su Hao planned to first take Milotic to visit relatives, see Latios and Latias, whom he hadn't seen for a long time, and by the way...

The biggest gain during this period was Incineroar. The big tiger, having promoted to the Professional level, once again became the second-in-command of the team. The physical bonus brought by the first current body-tempering allowed him to promote to a full-fledged Professional level by himself without using any tricky specialization techniques.

Subsequent training plans for Incineroar would need new considerations and arrangements. Originally, he wanted to harvest more Thunder Stones in the Electric Canyon to take away so that Incineroar could continue training after returning, but time and manpower were limited.

Every Thunder Stone, even if bagged, had to pass through his hands before it could be stored in the system backpack. According to his observation, it would take at least enough Thunder Stones to cover an entire room to form a minimal magnetic field, and the current intensity produced by this magnetic field was not as good as Incineroar's Thunder Punch.

After defeating Electivire, Su Hao used the very effective carrot-and-stick method to instruct the Electabuzz tribe to help him collect Thunder Stones, and it took him a whole day to collect enough to barely submerge half of a normal-sized room.

He estimated that this amount of Thunder Stones would only support Incineroar's cultivation once or twice before being drained...

Moreover, since the effect of Thunder Stones was so powerful, why hadn't he seen anyone else since arriving in the vicinity of the Electric Canyon, except for Ophelia and her companion?

It couldn't be that Ophelia's family had used their money power to temporarily clear the Electric Canyon for their heir...

Milotic's strength improvement during this trip didn't have much change. If he had to say, it was that she had a good relationship with Braviary.

Diancie was multitasking while babysitting, and her energy control had improved significantly. Now, she could make the diamonds more angular and sharp when creating Diamond Storm according to her own ideas.

Watching Diancie use those small diamonds with sharp edges to form a small storm and then shred hard rocks, a bold idea emerged in Su Hao's mind.

This thing, it seems very suitable for cutting berries?

As for Braviary, because Articuno usually just flapped His wings to pretend to be lazy while actually squandering free flight energy to lift Him, there was no major progress in flight skills...

Su Hao thought he would have to find a professional to take Braviary to learn later.

And then

there was Diancie who hadn't been made public yet, and now another Braviary. Sometimes being too special was also a trouble~

"Rumble—rumble!"

Su Hao: "????"

In the middle of the night, Su Hao, who was sleeping soundly, was woken up by a deafening vibration and the screams of Pokémon.

Articuno, who was keeping watch, was not surprised at all, and even felt it came late.

"Old Kun, what's the situation?"

Articuno opened His eyes, which were closed for rest, and said calmly: "Nothing, it's just that the ruins hidden deep in this canyon have appeared temporarily."

Su Hao: "???"

"Ruins?" Su Hao's voice trembled.

Could it be that he had encountered something again?

"Eh, didn't I say?" Articuno opened His eyes and mouth wide, His expression even more surprised than Su Hao's.

Oh no, this bird seemed to have amnesia from living too long...

Su Hao said speechlessly: "You didn't mention it at all."

Articuno turned His head with a guilty conscience and said: "These ruins basically only appear for a short while at specific times, and basically you can't get in, so I didn't mention it."

"Can't get in? Why?" Su Hao tilted his head and asked in confusion.

Articuno coughed a few times and recounted: "Actually, I didn't even know we were here before entering this canyon. It was only after coming inside that I was sure."

"I have only heard of these ruins."

"I once heard from Zapdos that there was a sealed ruin under a large canyon in a certain secret realm. Inside the ruin, there seemed to be some kind of very powerful power that made all Electric-type Pokémon, and even Zapdos, covet it."

"Zapdos tried to enter. The ruins, which were self-sealed, could even swallow all the lightning released by Him, who is of the same status as me. Except for the surrounding environment, that door didn't suffer a single scratch."

"Is it that awesome?" Su Hao opened his mouth wide and said in surprise.

What kind of ruins were so awesome that the full attack of the God of Thunder, who was of the same status as Articuno, wouldn't cause any damage?

Articuno nodded and continued: "Yeah, so it's the same whether I mention these ruins or not."

"Since Zapdos's power couldn't get in, it would be about the same if it were me."

After speaking, Articuno seemed to recall a detail and added: "Zapdos said at the time that when His Thunder touched the stone gate of the ruins, it felt 'weird,' as if the attack hadn't touched the stone gate at all."

"At the time, He even joked that maybe this was done by Palkia, the God of Space."
