"Awooo!" Da Kong growled in a low voice, alerting them to a natural rock archway in the distance. Su Yi and Lu Cao immediately lowered their heads.

Then, Da Kong narrowed his eyes, accelerated his wingbeats, pressed his wings close to his body, and spun through the archway.

Buzzing...!

Su Yi then noticed that several ultrasonic larvae were clinging to the shade under the archway, and they were startled by the approaching Da Kong and flew away in panic.

"I'm sorry!" Su Yi could only turn around and shout loudly.

At first glance, this desert appears as desolate and barren as the Anthill Wasteland, but upon closer inspection, one discovers countless lives hidden within, tenaciously surviving.

At the rock archway, the ultrasonic larvae flew into a cave on the rocky mountain. A moment later, two desert dragonflies flew out aggressively.

"Meow? A Pokémon is chasing us, meow!" Dewgrass heard the noise, turned her head to look, and immediately warned.

"Uh? The little guy told his parents?" Su Yi said guiltily.

"Ray!"

The desert dragonfly chased after them angrily, seemingly regarding Su Yi and his group as invaders.

"Dakong, stop on that rocky mountain!" Su Yi said, patting Dakong on the back.

The sky gradually slowed down and came to a stop on the flat rock platform.

"Lai!" Two desert dragonflies caught up, their faces full of anger.

Su Yi raised his hands to indicate that he meant no harm: "Sorry, sorry! We didn't mean it!"

"Meow!" Dewgrass explained from the side.

Seeing that the two desert dragonflies were still somewhat angry, Su Yi quickly opened his backpack and threw out two things: "Catch!"

"Lai?!" Two desert dragonflies caught the flying object in surprise, but upon closer inspection, they realized it was a rare tree fruit found in the desert.

Chapter 324 The Mystery of the Phantom Tower

Seeing the Desert Dragonfly's hesitant expression, Su Yi took out another tree fruit, took a bite, and said, "Don't worry, it's pesticide-free and very fresh. This is an apology."

"Lai." Two desert dragonflies looked at the rare tree fruit in the desert, carefully took a small bite, and after tasting the fresh and sweet flesh, they couldn't wait to finish it in a few bites.

"Bring some more for the little ones, as an apology," Su Yi said with a smile, taking out a handful of tree fruits.

"Lai~" The desert dragonfly happily accepted the tree fruit, feeling Su Yi's kindness, and its gaze towards him softened even more.

Just then, Rotom's phone rang: "Ring ring~ It's Daigo calling from Rotom!"

Su Yi answered immediately: "Hello?"

"Su Yi, where are you? Have you found anything?" Daigo's voice came through the phone.

"Uh..." Su Yi immediately looked around, then took out his tablet to compare the positions and found that he seemed to have flown out of range. He had been having too much fun and almost forgot about the main task.

"Not for now," Su Yi said somewhat guiltily.

However, upon seeing the two desert dragonflies, a sudden inspiration struck him, and he said, "Let me ask the natives!"

Su Yi immediately stepped forward and inquired about information regarding the Phantom Tower.

Because of Su Yi's kindness, the two desert dragonflies were happy to help. After recalling for a while, they told Su Yi that a tower that "disappears and then reappears" often appeared in a certain direction.

"Thank you!" Su Yi smiled and thanked the two desert dragonflies, then mounted the Sky Pierce and flew in the direction they pointed.

Shortly after, Daigo received the location information shared by Su Yi.

When Metagross carried Steven to the designated location, Su Yi smiled and pointed to the tall brick tower behind him, saying, "Finding the right method makes all the difference!"

Daigo's eyes gleamed with excitement: "Alright! Let's go in and take a look!"

The two recalled their Pokémon and entered the not-so-large stone tower.

The tower's interior had no decorations or murals; it was simply built of bricks and stones. They quickly found the stone steps leading up.

The Phantom Tower has four floors. When Su Yi and Daigo carefully avoided the collapsing ground and arrived at the fourth floor, they found two fossils on the central platform.

"We've finally found them!" Daigo eagerly stepped forward, wanting to examine the two fossils closely.

Su Yi immediately grabbed Daigo: "Wait! That platform is very unstable. If we take away even one fossil, the entire tower might collapse!"

Daigo asked in surprise, "How did you figure that out?"

Su Yi immediately made up a reason: "Look, so many floors have collapsed, this tower must be very dilapidated. We need to be prepared to take everything and run away!"

Daigo was somewhat puzzled by Su Yi's sudden caution, but he also acknowledged his caution.

"Let's take the fossils together, and then prepare to release the Pokémon to deal with any emergencies!" Su Yi suggested.

Daigo nodded, and he and Su Yi simultaneously reached out and each took a fossil.

The moment the fossil was taken, the platform on which it was placed collapsed, the Phantom Tower made a rumbling sound, and the entire tower began to crumble!

"You were right!"

Because of Su Yi's reminder, Daigo, who was already prepared, immediately released Metagross to catch him.

Su Yi then unleashed the Great Void, which blasted a hole in the tower's wall, and then rode it away with Daigo.

When the two looked back, the more than 30-meter-high stone tower collapsed with a roar, raising a cloud of dust, and finally sank into the yellow sand without leaving a trace.

"Phew! That was a close call!" Daigo breathed a sigh of relief.

"By the way, how did you know? Including those parts of the tower where the ground might collapse?" Daigo asked curiously.

Su Yi could only say, "Don't ask, just go with your gut feeling!"

"Is it an adventurer's intuition? I knew it was the right decision to go on this adventure with you," Daigo laughed.

Su Yi: Actually, it's a gamer's intuition.

Even though he had never played Emerald, Su Yi, who had suffered greatly from Souls-like games, could still have a keen intuition for potential traps in the scene.

However, just as Su Yi and Daigo were flying in one direction, intending to return to Qiuye Town, a scene that shocked them appeared before their eyes.

"This is a ghost!" Su Yi said solemnly.

Daigo broke out in a cold sweat and said in a low voice, "We shouldn't have seen wrong not long ago, right? We saw with our own eyes that the tower had collapsed and sunk."

"so."

"And what's with this Phantom Tower before us?!"

In the desert before them stood the Phantom Tower, which they had just explored and witnessed collapsing!

"Seeing is not necessarily believing!" Su Yi frowned slightly, let the large airship land in front of the tower, and then reached out to touch the wall.

Some grains of sand rubbed against the rough tower wall, and the real touch reminded him that this was not the mirage he had previously guessed.

Besides, mirages are always based on real objects, and that Tower of Illusion has indeed collapsed!

Su Yi turned his head and exchanged a glance with Daigo; both of them looked at each other with some surprise and doubt.

"How about we go in and take a look?" Su Yi hesitated for a moment, then said, driven by curiosity.

Daigo was equally curious: "Shall we go take a look?"

Having reached an agreement, the two entered the Tower of Illusions.

The tower interior was exactly the same, the floor collapse was exactly the same, but when I got to the top floor, the two fossils were gone.

"So, is this the tower we explored before?" Su Yi asked, scratching his head.

“It’s possible,” Daigo said, stroking his chin thoughtfully.

"Anyway, there's nothing left to take, let's go. This thing is too weird!" Su Yi suggested.

“Let’s go then,” Daigo agreed.

Boom!

"What was that sound?!" Daigo was startled by the loud noise coming from outside the tower.

"It sounded like thunder?" Su Yi asked uncertainly.

"Let's go out and take a look!"

The two quickly ran towards the entrance.

Ta-ta-ta.

When Su Yi and Daigo ran out of the Phantom Tower, the scenery before them was no longer a barren desert, but a lush rainforest.

However, this rainforest was somewhat eerie, with an extremely dark and sinister environment, and lightning crackling and flashing all around.

A roar could be heard from afar, followed by a tremor of the earth and a series of rumbling sounds.

The two looked around at the scenery in a daze, unable to speak for a moment.

"Where are we?" Daigo asked, his brow furrowed.

"Let's fly up into the sky and take a look!" Su Yi released the Great Sky and rode on it, with Daigo releasing Metagross to follow closely behind.

Once they had flown high enough, it seemed they had escaped some kind of force field. The scenery changed dramatically. In the sky, on one side there was lightning and thunder, and torrential rain, while on the other side the sun shone brightly and heat waves swept across the land.

Below them was the rainforest of an island, but it was shrouded by some kind of chaotic hemispherical force field.

"That's... a Pokémon?!" Daigo stared in disbelief at the distance.

On the horizon, a colossal beast standing on the lava-covered land roared as it crashed into the sea monster amidst the towering waves.

With the center of their battle as the dividing line, on one side is the surging sea, and on the other side is the boiling lava land. The sky also uses this as a dividing line, showing vastly different weather.

"Groudan and Kyogre!" Su Yi's eyes widened in disbelief!

Chapter 325 Crisis! Challenging the Legend!

"Groudon, Kyogre, the legendary Pokémon that expanded the land and sea..." Steven's expression was extremely solemn.

Su Yi put down the binoculars and said in a deep voice, "And it's in its original, reverted form..."

Daigo asked in confusion, "Primitive Regression?"

Su Yi explained, "That is, the strongest form, the full-fledged form that truly possesses the power to move mountains and fill seas, and swallow up land!"

"So what exactly is going on?" Daigo rubbed his temples, his thoughts in turmoil.
