Chapter 100 The Howling Desert (1)
Chapter 100 The Howling Desert (1)
It's just a desert, what's there to get through?
It's not like we don't have navigation.
Moreover, they had already passed through several cities and countless small towns along the way.
They survived wind and rain, and endured hardships of sleeping outdoors.
"Ignore these people and just leave."
Ultimately, the three chose to continue.
But after running less than 300 meters, I discovered...
All navigation and compass devices were affected by a strange magnetic field, causing them to malfunction or lose network connectivity.
"I go!"
Zhao Qian hurriedly ran back.
Ye Kai was speechless; it seemed he really needed to find a guide.
"Dulan!!"
"beep!!"
Just as the three of them were about to turn back...
Suddenly, a large number of wild elves sprang out of the sand.
"Iron ants have huge mandibles that can crush rocks. To prevent sand snail pythons from stealing their eggs, they will fight side by side with their kind."
Wang Xiaoting looked at the scan results on her phone.
"So, there are still sand snail pythons around here?"
Ye Kai no longer cared about the Sand Snail Python; the stats of these guys in front of him were already making him break out in a cold sweat.
They're all around level 50!
Even the lowest-level Iron Ant has reached level 47!
Indeed, in reality, the distribution and levels of wild Pokémon are completely illogical.
This place is extremely dangerous!
"Nidoking, big words Explosion!"
Strike first to gain the upper hand. These armored ants are four times weaker than fire, and Ye Kai was just lucky.
If we encounter other beings, and their numbers are too great, we'll probably be severely injured even if we don't die!
Everyone ran back as fast as they could.
They finally escaped the pursuit of the iron ant army.
At this moment, the once bustling highway intersection was now deserted except for the young woman whose price tag was 15 yuan.
He was speechless; it seemed he really needed to find a guide.
The cloaked girl looked at the crowd with the same expression I expected.
All the previous guides have been hired by other people.
Now, even with a tough exterior, they had no choice but to hire her.
"Ding!"
Ye Kai readily paid the money.
"Garuda!"
She released the approximately 2.4-meter-tall sprite directly.
"Ughhh!!"
She directly released a quasi-god!
"The Garchomp flies through the sky at speeds comparable to jet fighters. Once it sets its sights on its prey, there is nowhere to escape."
Wang Xiaoting promptly scanned the code with her phone.
It's a level 68 being!
That's definitely worth the price; it's not expensive at all.
Garchomp looked at everyone with a friendly expression.
What is your name?
"Yushu".
Ye Kai had only regarded this person as a passerby, so he hadn't looked at him closely.
After this conversation, it was discovered that Yushu had a baby face, but there were already fine wrinkles on his neck.
She is probably older than we imagine.
However, what Ye Kai cared about more than these things was that she had a Garchomp.
Despite the conversation, everyone had been in the desert for a while now.
"Put away your mount spirit. Desert spirits are ferocious. When they don't attack, they're like stones, but once they do, they're sure to kill you!"
Yushu suggested that it would be best if there were flying spirits.
Hearing her say that, Ye Kai decisively released the Cross Bat.
Wang Xiaoting is a sculptor.
Zhao Qian doesn't have a suitable flying sprite yet; the Buzzbat is still too young.
So he simply rode the Garchomp with Xiaoyu.
"Come out, Desert Dragonfly!"
Another dragon-type Pokémon!
Ye Kai became even more curious: just who was she?
"Sit in it, I don't like being squeezed with other people."
Yushu decisively released the second spirit.
"Be careful, there are 3 secret realms and 1 protected area in this Howling Desert. Do not wander off."
"Magneto!"
Another powerful spirit has been released.
It immediately began scanning everything around it, with the precision of a radar.
Magneton is extremely rare.
Seemingly noticing everyone's interest in Magneton, she gave a brief introduction.
"Under normal circumstances, Magneton is unlikely to evolve further."
"However, because the Howling Desert has a unique magnetic field, the specific reason for this..."
"Wait, you said there are three secret realms in this desert?"
A glimmer of light began to appear in Ye Kai's dark eyes.
He wasn't interested in Magneton's self-destruction; catching Pokémon in the Secret Realm was what truly interested him.
"There are so many wild Pokémon over level 60 inside, like Meowth. Even I don't dare to go in easily, so you can forget about it."
Her casual remark immediately extinguished Ye Kai's desire to take a gamble.
According to Yushu, that means creatures like the Moon Bear are roaming everywhere!
He can't even handle one, let alone a whole bunch!
The group flew for about 10 minutes.
I encountered many flying sprites.
A prime example is the Skarmory!
Undeterred by the sandstorms in the desert, they launched a direct attack on the group.
"Electromagnetic gun!"
Magneton cleared the way ahead and unleashed its ultimate attack.
The electric current condensed into a black and yellow beam of light that swept across the sky.
This move knocked down a whole flock of Skarmory!
They either fell to the brink of death or were paralyzed, while the rest of the armored birds fled in panic.
Zhao Qian reacted quickly and grabbed one.
Xiaoyu didn't say much when she saw this.
Skarmory is quite a useful Pokémon.
The reason why Magneto was able to defeat them so easily.
Ultimately, it's just a matter of level advantage and attribute counterplay.
Seeing that Zhao Qian could catch Pokémon, Ye Kai also wanted to catch one.
"Such a vast desert must have powerful poison-type Poison Pokémon, right?"
"Yes, I have."
"take me!"
"No, I'm only responsible for leading you across the desert; everything else is none of my business."
"..."
This didn't silence Ye Kai.
He was simply considering whether or not to look for poison-type Pokémon here.
"Hippopotamus!"
Yushu released another spirit.
This hippopotamus is nearly 4 meters long, incredibly huge!
It was practically a mountain of flesh blocking everyone's way.
This is an extremely rare, dominant hippopotamus!
"The hippopotamus can spew sand stored inside its body upwards from the holes in its body, creating a huge tornado to attack."
Wang Xiaoting scanned it and couldn't help but admire her professionalism.
All of their main battle Pokémon are designed for desert areas, giving them a significant advantage in terrain.
With Magneton leading the way in the air and the Overlord-level Hippo Beast on the ground, the group made a smooth journey without encountering any obstacles.
Perhaps it was too conservative.
"It doesn't seem that dangerous..."
Wang Xiaoting muttered to herself.
Yushu heard this.
"Okay."
She took a very old Pippi Leigh doll out of her bag and threw it into a slightly raised sandpit in the distance.
The moment the doll hit the ground.
"Oh Wei!!"
The sand dunes sank completely.
A large purple pair of pincers shredded the Pipi doll to pieces!
"It's a Dragon King Scorpion!"
Ye Kai's eyes lit up.
This thing is powerful too.
Excellent resistance to both evil and poison attributes!
