Chapter 791

"It's up to you!"

In the open space beside the square, a little boy in overalls held up a Poké Ball, his young face full of seriousness.

The sun shone on his raised face, and beads of sweat slid down his forehead, but it did not affect his concentration at all.

"Go! Flamingo!"

He pressed the button of the Poké Ball hard, and a red light suddenly burst out, sending out a bird Pokémon covered in flames.

When the flamingo spread its wings, they were twice as wide as the little boy's height. Its tail feathers were like burning red silk. Every time it flapped, sparks fell and burned small scorch marks on the grass.

In the grass not far away, a large green snake was spitting out its tongue, and its scales were shining coldly in the sunlight.

It is the native Pokémon of Liuguang Island, "Vine Snake". Although it is non-venomous, it likes to use its vines to entangle passing small animals.

"Flamingo, use sparks!" The little boy pointed at the vine snake, his voice trembling with excitement.

The flamingo cried out, its neck tilted back slightly, and an orange-red light lit up in its throat.

The next second, it dived forward suddenly, and a string of dense sparks spewed out of its mouth, like scattered fire, landing precisely on the grass around the vine snake.

The green grass immediately curled up when it came into contact with fire, making a crackling sound, which scared the vine snake so much that it raised its head and stared at the fiery opponent vigilantly.

The vine snake was obviously enraged. It swung its tail on the ground, and several green vines suddenly sprang out from the surrounding grass and lashed towards the flamingo like whips.

"Get out of the way!" the little boy shouted.

The flamingo flapped its wings and flew lightly backwards to avoid the attack of the vines.

The vines sprouted out in the open space, immediately took root in the soil, and grew small leaves.

This is the vine snake's counterattack, trying to trap the opponent with vines.

"Use the fire vortex!" The little boy clenched his fists and his eyes widened.

The flamingo understood the command and suddenly flapped its wings faster. The flames around it instantly became stronger, forming a rotating circle of fire.

It pushed the circle of fire towards the vine snake, and the flames drew an arc on the ground, like a burning ring, firmly surrounding the vine snake in the middle.

The flames forced the vine snake back, spitting out its tongue but not daring to move forward. Its scales shone slightly in the heat. It tried to break through the circle of fire with its vines, but the vines were immediately burned as soon as they touched the flames, and green smoke rose.

"Now! Use the peck!"

The flamingo seized the opportunity, folded its wings, and swooped down like a red arrow. Its hard beak flashed with a cold light and pecked the vine snake accurately at the vital point.

The vine snake hissed in pain, and the vines on its body instantly wilted and collapsed to the ground, motionless.

It was not defeated, it just lost the strength to fight.

Lin Yu stood at the edge of the square and watched this scene, and suddenly remembered the scene in the game.

"They work so well together." Aglaya said softly.

"The flames on its wings aren't actually very hot; they're just used to intimidate the opponent." The flamingo was controlling its strength and didn't actually injure the vine snake.

Sure enough, not long after, the vine snake recovered and slowly crawled into the grass. Before leaving, it looked back at the flamingo.

The little boy took back the flamingo and proudly held up the Poké Ball to show off to the people around him.

"See? Flamingo and I are the most powerful team in town!"

The residents laughed and applauded. The sister who baked the starberry pie walked over and ruffled his hair. "I know, but next time you can't use the fire to roast the grass, or you'll be punished by the mayor to water the grass."

The little boy stuck out his tongue and ran towards the crowd with the Poké Ball in his arms.

"Would you like to try it?" The sister handed over a spare Poké Ball.

"Are these the only Pokémon here?" he couldn't help but ask, his eyes sweeping over the Pokémon playing in the square.

The rabbits were chasing fish, and the foxes were serving as pillows for the children, as docile as a group of pets.

If this planet were filled with these soft rabbits and foxes, it would be too boring, lacking the wildness of the Pokémon that could fly high and low in his memory.

My sister wiped the flour off her hands, and the smile on her face faded a little. "These are the only Pokémon we can see. We don't know what's further away. No one has ever been to the deep forest."

"Why?" Lin Yu became even more curious, and gently turned the Poké Ball in his palm. "Is there danger inside?"

"Because the mayor said we can't leave the town and go into the forest." My sister glanced in the direction of the forest and lowered her voice. "I heard that Tianxing City is on the other side of the forest. There are many trainers there."

Seeing Lin Yu's puzzled expression, she explained, "Trainers are people who train Pokémon. They capture Pokémon to fight for them, unlike us, who just make friends with Pokémon."

"I heard that the trainers in Tianxing City are very powerful. They can even command mice that can spit lightning as flexibly as their arms."

"I don't know anything else, because the mayor didn't tell us." She shook her head, a hint of fear in her tone. "Anyway, it's best not to go to the forest or Tianxing City. Whether it's those dangerous Pokémon or Trainers, they are not beings you can mess with."

Lin Yu frowned, "Why do you say that?"

My sister's eyes fell on a stone tablet in the corner of the square, where a few lines of blurry words were engraved, as if commemorating someone.

"Because there are many outsiders like you who don't believe what we say. They think there are rare Pokémon hidden in the forest and insist on going in with Poké Balls."

She paused and sighed, "A few days later, our Pokémon discovered their bodies. Some were tightly entangled in vines, and some had marks of being burned by lightning..."

Lin Yu's heart sank. It seemed that this seemingly gentle planet was hiding unknown dangers.

Those trainers and Pokémon in the deep forest are obviously not as easy to get along with as the rabbits in the small town.

"Then have you never thought about leaving?" March 7 couldn't help asking. She was playing with bubbles with the fish just now, but the smile on her face had faded a lot at this moment.

"Leaving?" My sister smiled, but her eyes were a little confused. "We have lived with these Pokémon for generations. This town is our home."

"Besides..." She touched the fluffy creature lying at her feet, "It's enough to have them here."

At this moment, a sharp howl suddenly came from the edge of the forest, like some large creature was angry.

The Pokémon in the square instantly became alert.

"It's the armored rhinoceros!" one resident said, his face pale. "It's ramming the forest fence again!"

Lin Yu followed the gaze of the crowd and saw a huge gray-black figure swaying in the depths of the forest. Every time it bumped into something, the ground shook slightly.

"It's a Pokémon that lives on the edge of the forest. It has a very bad temper and always feels like we're encroaching on its territory."

The elder sister hugged the Poké Ball tightly in her arms. "There was a trainer who wanted to capture it before, but it used the sharp horns on its head to knock the Poké Ball away, and even the trainer was knocked into the river."

"Can I kill him?" Lin Yu asked.

"What...what do you mean?" The sister was stunned, and the Poké Ball in her hand almost slipped. She looked at Lin Yu's calm profile, as if she was meeting him for the first time.

Why did the warmth suddenly disappear in the eyes of this young man who had just accepted the starberry pie with a smile?

"Can we kill it?" Lin Yu repeated, staring at the black shadow. "Since it threatens the town, it will be a disaster if it is kept."

"Kill...it? But...it's very dangerous..." The sister's voice trembled a little. She grew up with Pokémon and had never heard the word "kill". In her eyes, no matter how fierce a Pokémon was, it was just a companion who needed to be comforted.

"Maybe there are other ways... For example..."

Before she could finish her words, Lin Yu suddenly disappeared from the spot, leaving only a shadow cutting through the air.

The wind blew his last words into everyone's ears, with an unquestionable determination.

"As long as I can kill you."

Aglaya's fingertips tightened suddenly, "Lin Yu!" she shouted subconsciously.

She could sense Lin Yu's breath rushing towards the armored rhinoceros, like a burning arrow, with the ruthless force of burning everything to ashes.

"What's wrong with him?" Sanyueqi was puzzled. "Isn't he just a rhino? There's no need."

"He's not targeting Pokémon," Aglaya said.

Lin Yu had already landed in front of the armored rhinoceros, and the huge creature raised its head, its sharp horn flashing with a cold light, obviously angered by the sudden appearance of this human.

"He's afraid."

What are you afraid of?

He was afraid that the armored rhinoceros would break through the fence and hurt the people in the town. He was afraid that, as he had seen, the gentle appearance hid deadly fangs. He was afraid that he would lose something again because of hesitation.
