Why is my Pokémon acting a little weird?

Yi Ruoyun seemed to want to say something, but at this moment, a loud noise came from a cave not far away, interrupting her words.

"Aa ...

The sound was not like an explosion, nor like a rock collapse, but rather... like the howl of some kind of beast.

"...!"

Yi Ruoyun's expression suddenly became serious.

"What happened again?"

Chapter 24024 [Cave (Please vote!)]

"Come over here too."

Although the situation was extremely urgent, Yi Ruoyun still took Qiao Ran with him for his safety. Alliance reinforcements would take a while to arrive, and if Qiao Ran was left alone outside, it would be disastrous if something unexpected happened.

"it is good."

Qiao Ran nodded, took back his Pokémon, followed her footsteps, and headed into the cave.

Speaking of which, he was also quite interested in the things in this cave.

According to the information he had read, there were no Pokémon in this world hundreds of years ago. So what was in these ruins? Could it be something unrelated to Pokémon?

"Do you know what this cave is? The remains of prehistoric humans?"

Walking behind Yi Ruoyun, Qiao Ran asked his own questions. Although he didn't know how much information this Heavenly King could tell him, Qiao Ran still hoped to get some intelligence.

"This cave?"

Yi Ruoyun blinked, took out a flashlight from somewhere, and answered softly.

"We don't really understand it, actually. We just know that these unique ruins suddenly appear in certain places. Well... according to scientists, the formation of these caves is related to things like quantum mechanics. They're probably objects from another world being transported here... After all, think about it, Pokémon history is only a few hundred years old. How could there be Pokémon-related ruins in our world?"

"The remains of...Pokémon?"

Qiao Ran was stunned. Could there really be Pokémon relics in this world? And they came from another world?

"If you don't believe me, look over there." Yi Ruoyun moved the flashlight in his hand, illuminating the pattern on the wall.

Qiao Ran took a closer look and found that the murals painted on them were actually some very abstract murals. However, unlike ordinary murals, there were some non-human figures on them, following the crowd very closely.

"You mean... these depict the lives of Pokémon and humans?"

"What else could it be? Didn't a Pokémon doctor explain and analyze it on a TV show before?" Yi Ruoyun looked at Qiao Ran strangely.

"I don't watch much TV."

Qiao Ran shrugged. He never had the habit of watching TV, especially after getting a mobile phone and a computer.

The two of them kept walking forward, and Qiao Ran kept observing the pictures on the wall. From some point on, the theme of the painting began to change. A jellyfish-like monster suddenly appeared in the picture, chasing humans and Pokémon.

Finally, Qiao Ran and Yi Ruoyun came to a stone chamber. The appearance of the stone chamber was ordinary, but... looking at the rectangular layout of the room, Qiao Ran felt vaguely that he had seen it somewhere.

"So, those poachers blew this place up just to steal some murals and antiques?"

"That's about right, but what they're really after is probably the prehistoric Pokémon fossils. There aren't many of those around the world, and each one is bound to be astronomically expensive... Shhh."

Suddenly, Yi Ruoyun put his finger to his mouth and lowered his voice.

"Don't move, just stand next to me."

Not only that, she also held Qiao Ran's hand, pulled him to her side, and held him tightly.

Although his posture was a bit unsightly and he even felt like he had touched something chewy, Qiao Ran understood that the current situation did not allow him to care about these things, and... this superstar who looked a bit lazy seemed to be quite reliable at critical moments.

"The Crossbat."

Yi Ruoyun opened another Poké Ball, and a bat-shaped Pokémon with four wings appeared in front of them. Its wings flapped rapidly, spreading sound waves in all directions.

Xbat is a bat Pokémon, and one with exceptional speed.

Yi Ruoyun wanted the Cross Bat to be alert to the surrounding situation, but what happened next was still a little unexpected for Yi Ruoyun and Qiao Ran.

"Boom!!!"

The moment Yi Ruoyun released the cross-bat, the stone chamber they were in was severely damaged.

It was as if something heavy suddenly hit them, and the entire wall next to them collapsed!

The breaking of the stone made a deafening sound, and Qiao Ran couldn't help but cover his ears, but even so, he still felt a headache.

“Ahhhhhhhhhhh!!”

A roar sounded in the stone chamber.

"what?"

Qiao Ran looked closely and saw that it was actually a super-armored rhino with black air wrapped around its body. Endless black matter was wrapped around its gray-black muscular body. It crawled out from the ruins with a dangerous red light in its eyes, destroying everything around it like a rotten tree.

"What's going on? Was that the one that made the noise earlier?!"

Not only was Qiao Ran confused, even Yi Ruoyun, the king of heaven, didn't understand what was going on. What was going on with that Pokémon? Why... did it look like it had gone crazy?

"Crossbat! Sucking blood!"

Yi Ruoyun wanted to subdue the opponent first. No matter where the opponent's Pokémon came from, no matter why the opponent went crazy, it would definitely be right to knock it out first.

Yi Ruoyun is quite confident in her Pokémon. Although she has not been a king for long and is a relatively inexperienced newcomer in the league, she is still at the king level no matter what.

However, all the actions of the mad super-armored rhino were beyond Yi Ruoyun's imagination. Facing the crazy attack of the cross-bat, it stomped its feet frantically in the stone chamber, and broken stones kept falling down, causing the entire cave to shake violently.

Qiao Ran felt the ground beneath his feet trembling and even whimpering.

"If one doesn't work, then try another!"

Yi Ruoyun knew that he couldn't delay any longer, so he threw another Poké Ball. A big black crow that looked like it was wearing a gentleman's hat appeared in the cave and joined the battle to subdue the crazy Pokémon.

"The crow leader, the wave of evil!"

"Crossbat, keep sucking blood!"

The King's Pokémon is worthy of being the King's Pokémon. The battle started quickly and ended quickly. Under the siege of two flying Pokémon, Rhydon soon lost its strength and fell down with a bang.

Its huge body hit the ground, stirring up a lot of gravel.

"Huh—it's finally over...wait."

Yi Ruoyun was just about to breathe a sigh of relief and check the condition of this crazy Pokémon, but she was surprised to find that the body of this Rhydon lying on the ground was disappearing rapidly.

Its body began to become transparent, and gradually, its entire body disappeared above the ground!

"No...no more?"

Yi Ruoyun was completely stunned. Where was such a huge Pokémon? Where was the Pokémon that was just here?

Just like that... it’s gone???

"Is it really gone??"

She turned to look at Qiao Ran, as if wanting confirmation, and Qiao Ran nodded seriously.

"It's really gone, it's really gone."

"Oh my god...what on earth is going on..."

Yi Ruoyun took a deep breath. She could swear that this was the first time she had seen such a strange thing in her life.

What's going on? Is this... a commotion...

Yi Ruoyun shuddered all over and quickly stopped her fantasy. To be honest, she was quite afraid of these weird things.

However, she did not notice that there seemed to be a mysterious light flashing in Qiao Ran's eyes.

Qiao Ran knew in his heart that the super-armored rhino did not disappear out of thin air, because a shining key actually fell at the place where it disappeared. However... for some reason, Yi Ruoyun did not seem to notice these things.

——Yes, it seems that only he can see this key.

"Let's go out first and investigate these things in detail after the rest of the alliance arrives."

Yi Ruoyun rubbed her forehead. She felt that she might be a little tired, so tired that she had hallucinations.

"Are you looking at something?"

"Hmm? No? I'm just taking a look."

Qiao Ran replied nonchalantly, but his body quietly walked to the place where the Super Armored Rhino disappeared, and calmly picked up the shining key that fell on the ground.

The moment his hand touched the key, nothing special happened. However, a line of text quietly appeared on Rotom's phone.

"Pokémon Singularity, No. 037—Key Obtained!"

Section 25025【No. 037】

After coming out of the cave, Qiao Ran and Yi Ruoyun sat on the rocks to rest for a while because they had experienced a lot of things.

It didn't take too long before the Alliance operators arrived one after another and took all the poachers who were knocked unconscious by Yi Ruoyun onto the helicopter.

"Oh my, well done. You're able to discover something like this while just traveling. Fighting crime is everyone's responsibility. The Alliance will give you a certificate of merit when the time comes."

The leader of the operators patted Qiao Ran on the shoulder with a happy smile on his face. They had been displeased with these poachers for a long time, but due to the lack of intelligence, they didn't know where these relics would appear. It was precisely for this reason that they were often preempted by these poachers.

The excavation of these Pokémon ruins is of extraordinary significance. If any amazing discoveries are made, it will enhance the strength of the entire Huaxia Alliance and give the Huaxia Alliance more say in the world.

In fact, in recent decades, the Huaxia Alliance has been on a downward trend.

"A certificate... Yeah, I'll accept it."

Although Qiao Ran said it happily, he was secretly thinking in his heart that it would be better to give me some money.

Ever since he bought Vulpix a few skirts, he'd been broke. Honestly, the skirts were really expensive.

"It's almost time to leave. Do you really not want my autograph?"

After bringing all the poachers onto the helicopter, it was time for Yi Ruoyun to leave. She glanced at Qiao Ran and brought up the matter of signatures again.

"How much do you like autographs? Okay...just give me one then."

Qiao Ran rolled his eyes, but this time he didn't outright reject her. Previously, he hadn't known Yi Ruoyun and had no idea what kind of person she was, so he had simply rejected her. But this time was different. After spending some time together, he felt like he was receiving a lot of care from this older sister.

Especially that key... He will definitely study it carefully later.

"Good boy, good boy, that's what you do."

Yi Ruoyun took out a pen and paper with a smile and quickly wrote it down.

One picture shows her skillful technique. God knows how long she has practiced.

"Okay, keep it well. This is the first autograph I ever gave out."

"The first one?" Qiao Ran was a little surprised.

Looking at the words "Flying King Yi Ruoyun" written on the paper, Qiao Ran never thought that this would be her first signature.

"This is your first photo after becoming a superstar. Are you surprised? Otherwise, do you think such a young superstar just fell from the sky?"

Yi Ruoyun blinked and jumped onto his armored bird. The armored bird flapped its wings and gradually left the cliff.

Her voice gradually faded away.

"So keep it well. If we have a chance to see each other again next time, I will definitely check your homework - Qiao Ran."

"You are the kid."

Qiao Ran held the signature and couldn't help but retort that not only were his functions completely normal, his performance was also much better than that of ordinary people!

You are the kid!

——————————————————————————————————————

At night, Qiao Ran set up camp by a nearby river, ending the day's journey.

Sitting in the tent, he picked up the strange key and examined it carefully over and over again.

The key looked ordinary, with nothing else conspicuous besides the number "37" engraved on the top. However, it shone with a strange glow, as if announcing its existence. It was precisely because of this special glow that Qiao Ran did not miss it in the dark cave.

"Master, this seems to be a key that opens the door to another world. Just like the Pokémon Path, this key can also open the 'door' to a certain world... However, the system indicates that the world beyond is somewhat dangerous. Master, please think carefully before opening it."

"It's dangerous..." Qiao Ran nodded after hearing Rotom's answer.

"Is that why it's called a 'singularity'? And it's numbered 037, which means there must be more than one key like this."

"Master, shall we open it now? The unknown world may hold unknown rewards. Danger and adventure go hand in hand."

"No, let's try it after we finish challenging the next gym. Since it's dangerous, it's better to train first."

Qiao Ran lay down in the tent, but couldn't help but think of the Rhydon that was making a big fuss in the cave. If Yi Ruoyun was not there at that time, would he be able to deal with the crazy Pokémon with his own strength?
