Chapter 556

The Coalossal clan, who lived in peace, were driven out of their habitat by humans, and it is very likely that they will vent their anger on other humans and launch attacks, just like just now.

In terms of reason and emotion, Su Hao felt that he should go and see.

Coalossal's gaze was hesitant, and the temperature of the coal on its back also rose with its entanglement.

After a while, it looked at Su Hao, and then at the particularly beautiful mineral Pokémon behind.

"Coal~"

In the end, trust prevailed, and Coalossal finally decided to trust humans one more time.

Signaling Su Hao to follow, Coalossal's dark and bulky body walked toward the familiar tunnel.

Su Hao and several Pokémon looked at each other, and a red light flashed.

Riolu and Eevee were taken back into the Luxury Ball by him, leaving only Diancie and Dragapult in the outside world.

The situation ahead is unknown, so it's better to let them both stay in the safe Poké Ball.

Under Coalossal's leadership, Su Hao was no longer a headless fly running around, and successfully headed toward the depths of the mine.

Diancie closed its eyes slightly to feel the energy in the air and reminded in the Aura: "The concentration of Fire-type energy is rising, and it is now almost equal to Rock-type energy."

Hearing this, Su Hao frowned slightly.

Sure enough, there is something tricky in this mine.

Fire-type, Rock-type, or Ground-type energy coexist harmoniously; only a few places can achieve this balance.

Environments like volcanoes and underground magma.

The parts of this mine that have already been excavated do not have these things; although coal can generate heat under the influence of external forces, it is definitely not the reason for the increase in the concentration of Fire-type energy.

As time passed, under Coalossal's leadership, Su Hao clearly felt the changes in the environment.

First, a smaller amount of coal began to appear gradually in the surroundings; Coalossal introduced that this was where their clan first found coal.

After the Coalossal clan settled down, as time passed, they consumed the surface coal, and the tunnels here continued to extend downward.

Su Hao couldn't understand; coal as an energy source already belongs to eliminated resources for humans today, so why are there still people occupying this place?

"Coal..."

The leading Coalossal stopped, its expression looking at the distance with some fear.

Su Hao made a pause gesture, and Diancie instantly understood his meaning; the pink light that was illuminating the tunnel dissipated.

The mine fell into darkness again, leaving only the coal on Coalossal's back emitting a faint red light.

Su Hao asked in a low voice: "Is it just ahead?"

Coalossal nodded; the culprit who drove their clan away was still inside.

The other party's Water-type Pokémon were too lethal to them.

Su Hao looked in the direction of Coalossal's gaze; it was a huge space that was less of a mine tunnel and more of a cave.

Coal that was colorless and odorless in an unburned state was everywhere; no wonder the Coalossal clan chose to settle here.

The interior of the cave, which should have been dim and without light, clearly had light coming from it, and shadows swayed from time to time.

Su Hao thought for a while and let Coalossal retreat to the very back.

The smell of coal burning on its body and the light were easy to startle the snake and expose their position.

"Dragapult, use Ghost-type energy to slightly cover and lower our sense of presence."

Hearing this, Dragapult gathered Ghost-type energy, and a cold breath surrounded the one human and three pets.

Under the effect of one of the characteristics of Ghost-type energy—lowering the sense of presence and reducing movement—they carefully sneaked forward.

A moment later, the scene inside the cave came into view.

A burly man with short water-blue hair and a

slender woman with water-blue long hair were surrounding a pile of screens, not knowing what they were doing.

Su Hao opened his eyes in surprise; with these hair color characteristics, plus the Water-type Pokémon mentioned by Coalossal, it could basically be confirmed that these two people were Sea People.

What are they doing grabbing the Coalossal clan's cave?

"Coal—!"

Coalossal's anxious and flustered voice sounded in the Aura channel; Su Hao looked in the direction of its gaze, his pupils shrinking.

Those were several Rolycoly and Carkol; they were all locked in a huge iron cage, looking in a bad state, a bit weak.

Seeing its companions captured, Coalossal's mood instantly became excited, and the coal burning on its back faintly had a tendency to erupt with flames.

A slightly honest voice sounded in the Aura channel: "The minerals and gems I treasure can all be given to you."

"They haven't eaten coal for a long time; please, save them."

It was Coalossal's voice; it was looking at Su Hao pleadingly, asking for Su Hao's help.

Su Hao thought for a while and directly accepted Coalossal's commission.

But now was not the time to strike; he prepared to observe these two Sea People first.

Messy clues kept intertwining and colliding in his mind; his intuition told him that these two people had problems.

Before he could figure it out, the woman suddenly slapped the table, startling the burly man next to her.

The man complained: "Chi Bi, what are you doing! You scared me to death!"

Chi Bi said hatefully: "Tsk, the plan failed."

"Chi Xu, prepare to withdraw from the Shenzhou Alliance!"

Su Hao's star-like eyes were slightly heavy; sure enough, these two people were from the Sea People.

Which faction?

The surnames are the same, and this is some distance away from Magic City; could they be the Lugia faction like Gym Leader Chi Ze of the Flying Wing Gym who is far away in the Imperial Capital?

However, the woman named Chi Bi also mentioned a "plan"; could they be followers of the Sea King when he betrayed the Sea People?

A big event that almost submerged Magic City happened not long ago; could they have participated in it?

Su Hao decided to eavesdrop on the two's conversation again.

The burly man Chi Bi called Chi Xu scratched his head, obviously very surprised: "How could it fail?"

"That was the surface energy accumulated by the Blue Orb for countless years."

"Except for the core energy that only the Creator of the Sea, Kyogre, can use, the tsunami triggered by the Blue Orb cannot be blocked by anyone other than Masters or Legends!"

Chi Bi was also speechless; she didn't expect that they had finally seized an opportunity in the Shenzhou Alliance's tight protective net, but it was destroyed by a stray bird passing by.

She said angrily: "The tsunami triggered by Lord Chi Lang has already been frozen and stopped by the Ice God, and the three Legendary Beasts that arrived subsequently have already disintegrated it."

"The plan failed, and the Shenzhou Alliance's revenge will probably arrive soon; according to Lord Chi Lang's meaning, we should avoid the limelight first."

"But it's not a loss; the subordinates of other God-chosen ones in the organization and the R Research Institute will share the firepower for us, and then Lord Chi Lang can take the opportunity to improve his status."
