Pokémon: The Sims.

Chapter 484 Diamond Mining Nation and the Sacred Diamond

Wu Ge and his two companions stayed in Yaoxiang City for a few more days.

After visiting all the famous attractions nearby, we headed back to Guxiang Town.

No way.

Machima had to go to the ward eighteen times a day to find Monet, asking the princess when she would return and whether it was safe for her to stay for the next few hours.

At first, Monet was able to give a few perfunctory replies.

It became incredibly annoying afterwards.

The only option is to contact Cynthia and ask them to bring Diancie back.

Knowing she had to go back, Tianxi's face seemed to lose all its smile, and she was sullen all day.

Looks like I'll have to go back and let Machima guess.

"There will be other opportunities to come out in the future."

Cynthia offered her a word of comfort.

"But who knows when that will be? And will I be able to hang out with Wu Ge and Cynthia again next time we go out?"

"Well"

Cynthia hesitated.

Who knows when they'll be able to come to the Carlos region again.

"Woo."

When Diancie saw that Cynthia hadn't given her any promises or anything, she was on the verge of a breakdown.

She hates Machima.

"Weren't you going to take us to the diamond-producing country? We've remembered how to get there, and we'll come find you next time we're in Carlos."

Wu Ge reached out and patted her crown on the head.

"Oh, right! After you guys arrive, Makima will definitely agree to let me come out and play with you, after all, Wu Ge is the Wave Messenger!"

Diancie had just started to wail, but before she could even squeeze out a tear, she stopped and smiled again.

next moment.

"However, if Diancie goes back now, she won't be able to watch our match."

In a word.

Cynthia responded with a stern look.

"I don't want to go back! I want to watch the game!"

Tianxi reached out and hugged Wu Ge's big tail.

Wu Ge was immediately rooted to the spot and couldn't move. If he insisted on walking, it would be painful to the root of his tail.

If Tianxi doesn't want to go back.

He really couldn't force her to go back.

You can't beat them in terms of strength.

“Just go back and tell Machima before you come out. If you don’t go back, He might send a whole bunch of little monsters out to look for you again.”

"Really? Wu Ge, you're not going to trick me into going home and then abandon me to elope with Cynthia, are you?"

"will not."

Helpless, Wu Ge reached out and pressed his hand against Diancie's face, who was about to jump up.

"Hehe, you promised me."

Only then did Diancie release his tail, hopping forward and even turning his head to urge him on.

"Hurry up, Wu Ge, Cynthia."

Snapped!
Just that one turn of the head.

Diancie took a tumble and fell flat on her face.

However, for someone as physically resilient as her, the earth might suffer even greater damage.

"Hehe, this child."

Cynthia couldn't help but cover her mouth and laugh, then quickly went over to help her up.

Wu Ge shook his head helplessly.

They moved forward while playing around.

Under the deliberate ink strokes of Diancie.

What should have been a journey in one or two days took five days to complete.

The little diamond has already made the surveillance station its home.

at last.

The little diamonds can finally meet their beloved princess today.

But this time.

Just as Wu Ge and his companions stepped into the forest near the ancient town of Guxiang.

Then, some small diamonds that had been lingering nearby bounced out to greet her, and their excited expressions upon seeing Diancie were as if they had met their idol.

"Mishi mishi!"

"Okay, take me back."

Diancie nodded calmly, displaying a princess-like demeanor.

This time, they weren't going through the underground world, so there was no need to inform Monet beforehand.

Led by small diamonds.

They took a road outside the ancient town that led directly to the diamond mining country.

However, this road is quite narrow and dark, and not particularly friendly to creatures like Wu Ge and Cynthia who are relatively tall.

Fortunately, they eventually managed to squeeze their way to the diamond-producing country.

"Welcome back, Your Highness, welcome to the Diamond Kingdom, Lord Wu Ge, Lady Cynthia."

Machima greeted them at the exit of the passage.

However, Wu Ge and Cynthia had no time to respond to Him, as they were captivated by the scene before them.

Diamond mining country.

It's truly a place filled with beautiful crystals.

"Are those diamonds?"

Wu Ge pointed to the crystals that were sparkling and translucent.

"Yes! It is a pure diamond created from the energy of a sacred diamond."

Machima turned her head and glanced at it, then nodded, and responded with regret.

"It's a pity that we can't let you take some back, because those diamonds need the energy of sacred diamonds to survive. Once they reach a depth of 5000 meters or more underground, these pure diamonds will gradually turn into carbon."

"This thing is similar to energy or food to you, right?"

Wu Ge made a rough guess.

As Tianxi said before.

If the sacred diamond's energy is depleted, the diamond-mining nation will be destroyed.

It has appeared in animation.

After the sacred diamonds reached the end of their lifespan, the crystals of the diamond mining kingdom gradually perished, and the entire diamond mining kingdom became dim and lifeless.

In this environment.

The diamond-mining nation will soon face destruction, and the tiny diamonds will lose their home.

"Yes."

Machima nodded.

"No wonder Diancie was in such a hurry." Cynthia surveyed the beautiful world around her.

It would be such a shame if it were destroyed like this.

"I have a question. Is there something wrong with the environment and pressure here?"

Wu Ge raised his hand and waved it in the surrounding space.

Both temperature and pressure are too high.

But it's still within an acceptable range.

Wu Ge had already noticed it when he came down earlier.

At some point after reaching a depth of several thousand meters underground, the gravity they experienced, as well as the temperature and oxygen levels of the surrounding environment, suddenly became much more comfortable.

This is obviously abnormal.

because.

This is 10,000 meters underground.

Release the blue star.

This location is an absolute no-go zone for life.

The furnace-like high temperature, the pressure of thousands of Eiffel Towers, and the near-zero oxygen content.
Any one of them could be enough to make a human life end here.

but.

These things don't exist in diamond-producing countries.

Wu Ge had no doubt that he and Cynthia could come to the diamond mining country.

After all, Diancie had said before:

In the past, the Diamond Kingdom has had Aura Masters and foreign Pokémon serving as elders.

This means that Diamond Country is definitely a place that humans and other Pokémon can set foot in.

In the movie, Ash and his friends did not show any discomfort when they arrived here.

just.

How did this peculiar environment come about?

The underground world of Pokémon is naturally like this.

Or is it that only diamond-producing countries do this?

"That's because of the power of the Sacred Diamond!"

Machima turned around as she spoke.

It seems they plan to take Wu Ge and Cynthia to see what the Sacred Diamond looks like in person.

"I'll lead the way! I'll lead the way!"

Tianxi pulled Machima back.

Then he took Wu Ge and Cynthia's hands and walked forward.

After being led by Wu Ge and Cynthia for so long, it's finally her turn.

“Alright, then Your Highness, you shall be the vanguard.”

"."x2
Wu Ge and Cynthia looked somewhat tense.

"The power of sacred diamonds is the source that allows diamond-mining nations to exist; they can absorb and transform geothermal energy, creating an endless supply of pure crystals."

Machima continued her explanation of science behind the three of them.

There were small diamond fragments passing by.

They would all greet Diancie and Machima, their bouncy bunny heads looking quite adorable.

In Machima's explanation.

They learned of the existence of the entire diamond-mining country.

The pure diamonds created by the sacred diamonds are not what they see before them.

The entire diamond-mining country is covered by a network of diamond domes and pillars composed of pure diamonds, forming a powerful structural force field that evenly disperses, guides, and even partially offsets the trillions of tons of pressure from the surrounding rock layers, creating a low-pressure space suitable for life inside.

Not only that.

These pristine diamonds can also absorb minerals from the soil, undergoing a process similar to photosynthesis but more efficient, continuously releasing oxygen and purifying the air.

and this.

This constitutes a near-perfect closed life cycle system.

That's why I say that.

The destruction of the sacred diamond would lead to the destruction of diamond-mining nations.

Diamond Country is a great wonder of the Pokémon world.

"Coming."

At this moment, Tianxi spoke up.

"Yeah, I can see that."

Wu Ge nodded.

The dazzling pink light at the end of the road was almost blinding.

And the natural energy so powerful that Wu Ge could sense it even without using waveguide power.

These two things.

This was enough to indicate that they were about to arrive at the location of the sacred diamond.

"It's right ahead!"

Tianxi finished speaking.

A giant pink diamond, suspended in mid-air, appeared in front of Wu Ge and Cynthia.

"Wow~"

Cynthia was completely stunned.

"Hmm, it's even more amazing than I expected."

Wu Ge couldn't help but widen his eyes.

He originally thought he wouldn't be too surprised, since he already knew roughly what it looked like from the animation.

But when you actually see that sacred diamond, so clear that your gaze can penetrate to the other side, you can't help but feel amazed.

"Of course, after all, this sacred diamond carries immense hope and weight."

Machima nodded heavily.

Looking at the sacred diamond in front of her, tears welled up in her two small, swollen eyes.

"really."

Wu Ge nodded.

It can be said.

This sacred diamond is the lifeblood of the entire diamond-mining nation.

Once it's destroyed.

What will become of those tiny diamonds?
How long will it take for these tiny diamonds, which have lived underground for tens of thousands of years, to find a suitable way to survive on the surface?

Human greed.

The hunting of Pokémon.

An environment that is difficult to adapt to.

Even if they don't go extinct in the future, their numbers may decrease dramatically.

"I must create new sacred diamonds before the diamond-mining nation is destroyed."

Diancie released their hands, stepped forward, and looked up at the enormous diamond, her eyes filled with complex emotions.
"at all costs."
