Pokémon: Starting as a Farmer Instead of a Trainer

Chapter 386 Escape and Schemes, the Resilient King Tai Le Bagos (Seeking Monthly Tickets)

Zhenxing stood there dumbfounded, staring at the iron poison moth that had been shattered into pieces. It was probably beyond repair even if the aliens sent it back to the factory for repairs; it was completely scrapped.

He still doesn't understand why that Burning Bug could unleash such power after evolving into Ground Wing, but he doesn't have any more Pokémon and can't deal with them anymore.

Mission failed...

"Is that all? In the end, it's just using Torcimog as a tool, unable to give it emotions and turn it into a real Pokémon. It can never unleash its true power!"

Mingyou murmured softly. In her arms, Meilutan had woken up at some point. She jumped to the ground and ran toward the rhomboid wings of the Iron Poison Moth that had lost their energy supply. She dissolved these "floating cannons" with her body and ate them.

"Miroku~"

"Don't get an upset stomach, I don't know the exact principle behind it."

With a reminder, Mingyou withdrew her gaze. Zhenxing had already lost his ability to fight. Next, she just needed to take care of the remaining enemies and then go to the armory. With Ponpo here, there was no need to worry about not finding the location.

He then looked at Ponpo, who was battling the turbulent waters, but it had already reached the final moment and didn't even need his command.

Pongpong raised the azure light sword that shot into the sky, piercing even the ceiling of the spaceship. In the instant the sunlight dissipated, she dealt with Bodangshui with a single strike, without any hesitation.

If it weren't for the need to protect his comrades and prevent him from fighting freely, Bodangshui would have been hit back at the armory and wouldn't have survived until now.

"Mmm!"

The crystalline light dissipated, and Ponpo returned to its usual appearance. It put the ghost mask back on its cloak, took a breath, and realized that although the crystalline energy in the air was very strong, even stronger than that in the Crystal Pool, it was very unstable. This instability was even gradually increasing, causing it to be severely depleted when it crystallized.

It looked at the defeated Bodangshui, whose body was gradually becoming transparent under the wrapping of Taijing energy particles. This was a sign that the energy consumption was too severe and that it was about to be transported back to its original era.

Mingyou noticed this as well, but frowned slightly: "It's all used up so quickly?"

He was quite surprised, after all, he had spent a long time with Milton and the Iron Warriors, and they had never suffered such severe exhaustion in some battles.

Although I really want to understand, this matter isn't over yet...

"Go support Skybreaker!"

Mingyou waved and shouted, but the crawling wing was already on its last legs due to the battle just now. Moreover, it had just evolved, and the energy in its body, which had surged due to the evolution, was not yet stable, so it could no longer continue fighting.

Therefore, Ponpo can only participate in the battle alone.

"Thank you for your help."

"Mmm!"

Ponpo shook his head, picked up the thorny vine club, and was about to join the battle when three figures suddenly flew over from a distance and fell to the ground with a thud. They were the three defeated Iron Arm and his companion.

Snorlax and the others finally arrived. Although it took a little time, as long as they fought with all their might, these guys were no match for them at all, and they were easily dealt with.

Seeing this, Huoxing and Suixing looked at each other and started communicating in the team voice chat, asking what to do next. A single Piercing Flame was still manageable, but now the Mighty Thunder Drum was definitely no match for them!

"Retreat first!"

The two abandoned Zhenxing and chose to flee, letting Mengleigu buy them time. All they needed to do was return to the armory and summon those guys.

"Hmph! Trying to escape!"

Mingyou had been watching them the whole time. Almost the instant the two were about to turn around, Simocha, who had woken up at some point, appeared behind them and sprinkled out tea powder still containing the curse.

Sweet tea powder landed on their faces, and a terrifying abyss instantly enveloped them. Intense hallucinations accompanied by pain tormented them until they completely lost consciousness and collapsed.

"Mmm!"

Get it!

Although there were many unexpected events during the process, the result was ultimately good. The Thunder Drum was blocked by the Winged Strike and was finally defeated by the Sky-Piercing Flame after it was freed from its paralysis state, and then disappeared as crystal particles.

In ancient times, these three Pokémon occupied a large island as their territory. However, because there was a volcano on Flareon's territory, Ripple and Drummer often harassed it, trying to take away this place closest to the sun.

At the time, the three of them were fighting when they were enveloped by a strange light. When they came to their senses, the Sky-Piercing Flame appeared in an unfamiliar Crown Snowfield, and the Burning Insect's egg disappeared from its head.

"It seems that Team Galactic was the one who sent the three of you to this era at the same time. It's possible that the Pokémon egg on your head isn't from your era, which caused a discrepancy in the time and place of your teleportation."

Mingyou guessed that this was because the teleportation of Keldeo and Ironleaf was similar to this situation.

According to Dr. Futu's speculation, Keldeo was saved by a dying Talebagos in that destroyed future, and it's unlikely that the Talebagos would also send Ironleaf away.

Based on the current situation, it can be inferred that two teleportation accidents occurred at the same time. The future Three Musketeers should have been teleported away by Team Galactic, but due to the line collision accident, Keldeo and the most recent Ironleaf were connected to his line and sent to Dr. Futo's era.

Then, the three ancient legendary beasts were teleported during their battle. They accidentally bumped into a Pokémon egg whose energy had run out and was about to be teleported away. This caused the closest Pokémon, Flareon, to also collide with the line and go to another dimension. It should also be connected to his line, because the time when Flareon appeared in the Crown Tundra was very close to the time when he appeared on the Valiant Asagi.

Mingyou muttered these words, but none of the Pokémon around him could understand them, which made him sigh. If Kirlia were here, she would definitely understand.

"By the way, where's Kirlia?"

"Hmm..."

Ponpo shook its head, it wasn't quite sure either, and then recounted what the others had encountered at the armory.

"A whole bunch of Pokémon from ancient times and the future are frozen inside? Do you see any Pokémon that look like Terrakion and Cobalion?"

"Hmm..."

The light was too dim for it to see clearly; at the time, it was just splashing around in the water.

Mingyou nodded slightly. Compared to these two cruel weapons of slaughter, what concerned him more was the Pokémon that ambushed Ponpo.

"A white dog... with attack speed, and such strength..."

He pondered for a moment, and some guesses had formed in his mind. If it really was Zygarde, it would make perfect sense. After all, he had already seen three shiny legendary Pokémon in the Crown Snowfield, so it wouldn't be surprising if the Zygarde in this timeline was shiny.

What he was curious about was how Crimson Sun controlled the power of Zygarde. He had never heard of such a thing before, but on that day at the Crystal Pool, the other party did indeed use Zygarde to capture Talebagos and also attacked Reshiram.

"I can't figure it out... Anyway, let's go check out the armory first, and also find Riko and the others who are imprisoned, although I'm not worried about that..."

Meanwhile, inside a warehouse on the Galaxy spaceship used to store food, Riko and the others who had been captured were all imprisoned, but the door that had been locking them had now been opened.

"Pikachu!"

"Well done!"

Fried gave Captain Pikachu a thumbs up as he opened the door from the outside. Earlier at the dock, he had seen Naruto's eyes remind him, and he guessed that Team Galactic would definitely capture them and use them to threaten Naruto or something.

So he was prepared, letting Captain Pikachu into the Poké Ball. But his Poké Ball couldn't hold Pikachu. As long as Mingyou made a commotion on the spaceship and the guards left, Captain Pikachu would immediately take action and rescue everyone.

"That's right. I knew I could leave after the announcement was made over the loudspeaker. I'm so sorry to have worried you all for so long."

Fried explained to everyone that he had kept this a secret because he was afraid the warehouse was being monitored and listened to.

After hearing the story, no one complained. Although they were indeed a little frightened, they were ultimately safe and sound. However, they were quite impressed that Fried trusted Mingyou, whom he had only known for a few days.

"Because he is indeed very reliable."

Rico smiled as she held Newleaf Meow and Mibrim, comforting them not to be afraid. But when she opened her backpack, she discovered that Talebagos was nowhere to be found, along with the Tai Crystal that Mingyou had given her. Her expression changed drastically.

Upon realizing this, Fried immediately signaled to her not to panic and to return to the spaceship first. The fighting noise coming from up there was too great, and if it collapsed, their position would be extremely dangerous.

"Um……"

Although she was in a hurry, Riko could only do this for now; she couldn't let herself hold everyone back...

As they headed to the dock, in another warehouse on the same floor, the broadcasts and constant sounds of battle kept Xiaoqing and the others, who were trapped, from knowing what was happening outside.

"It must be Mingyou!"

"what?"

Seeing how excited Peony was, everyone turned their attention to her, so she had no choice but to tell them everything. She had kept it a secret from everyone to avoid being suspected by the big milk tank.

"So that's it, it really is him."

"!!!"

A familiar female voice suddenly came from the warehouse entrance, startling the group. They looked over and, upon seeing who it was, Mudan almost jumped up.

"Big...big milk tank!"

"You bastard!"

Without a word, Pipa stepped forward, intending to teach the other a lesson, while Bai Leya simply handed him the unconscious Kirlia: "Hurry up and heal it. This Kirlia is Mingyou's Pokémon."

"Huh!?"

The four of them looked completely bewildered, not yet understanding what was going on. Then, Bai Leiya handed them a bag full of Poké Balls, saying, "I told you to trust me... These are your Pokémon. I'll tell you the details on the way!"
