Chapter 612 Salamence, I Want to Tame You
Chapter 612 Salamence, I Want to Tame You
Dark Lugia spread its wings angrily, and several jet-black vortexes suddenly formed around its body.
The cyclone was initially only a few feet square, but it expanded rapidly in an instant, frantically tearing apart every inch of air inside the cave.
The surrounding light seemed to be swallowed up by an invisible giant mouth, and the glowing moss growing on the rock wall went out one layer after another, from far to near, like dominoes being pushed over.
The entire cave sank into a suffocating darkness at a visible speed.
The Salamence was on high alert. Its forelimbs glowed with a bright blue light as it swung them forward, attempting to tear a gap in the approaching darkness with its claws.
Ran and egg.
The dark vortex swallowed the blue light of the dragon's claws, the piercing shriek, and even the sound of the wind as the flying dragon swung its claws.
The next instant, the condensed darkness slammed into the Salamence, sending it flying along with its unleashed, raging power.
The Salamence immediately crashed into the rock wall behind it.
With a deafening roar, the entire rock wall caved inward, creating a huge crater. Cracks spread outward like a spider web in all directions, and large chunks of rock fell from the dome.
The shockwave, carrying stone chips, swept outwards, creating a murky dust storm within the cave.
The aftershocks of the dark vortex gradually dissipated, and the swallowed light surged back into the cave like a receding tide, dispelling the suffocating darkness inch by inch.
Xijiana, standing behind Li Luochen, stared wide-eyed.
She grew up in Meteor Falls and had heard of the formidable reputation of this Salamence from her elders since childhood.
In the stories passed down through generations of the Meteor Dwellers, it is Rayquaza's personally chosen bodyguard and the most loyal guardian of the Sky Pillars.
For centuries, countless challengers have attempted to set foot on that sacred land, only to be defeated by its sharp claws and raging flames.
When the elders in the clan talk about it, they always lower their voices, as if just mentioning its name requires a great deal of reverence.
In Higanbana's memory, this Salamence was practically the embodiment of the word "invincible".
That's why, when she got her baby dragon, she hoped to become as powerful as that Salamence.
However, at this moment—
The dragon, revered as a god by its people, was embedded deep within the shattered rock wall, the crater beneath it a shocking sight.
As the light filled the cave again, Higana stood there, unable to come to her senses for a long time.
There's a reason why Lugia is called a "legendary Pokémon."
This is not empty praise, nor is it an embellishment of ancient myths over generations; rather, it is a real, overwhelming force that can overturn common sense with every move.
She had grown up listening to the elders of her clan tell stories of various legendary Pokémon, and she thought those stories were somewhat exaggerated.
But seeing it with my own eyes today, I realize that those descriptions were not exaggerated at all; in fact, they were downplayed.
Although I don't know why Li Luochen's Lugia is black.
But color aside, the unfathomable power surging within that dark Lugia, like the deepest abyss, is exactly the same as the silver-white sea god depicted in the mural.
The legendary Pokémon are indeed incredibly powerful!
Xijiana breathed a sigh of relief, her gaze involuntarily falling on Li Luochen's retreating figure.
Looking at the back of the figure with arms crossed and a composed expression, Xijiana felt a strange emotion welling up inside her, like the brightest star in a summer night meteor shower, crashing into her chest.
She grew up among the Meteor Dwellers and had seen countless trainers, some arrogant, some composed, some self-important, and some with hidden talents.
But no one could stand in front of the Flying Dragon without changing their expression and tease it until it bristled, and then smash this dragon veteran who had guarded the Sky Pillar for a hundred years into the rock wall with just two moves, like Li Luochen.
That's a Salamence!
The guardian of Rayquaza, the overlord of Meteor Falls, a figure whose existence even the elders of the clan dare not mention loudly.
But against her cousin, she couldn't even last a single round of combat.
"My cousin is really amazing!"
Higana sighed.
Right now.
A rustling sound came from deep within the shattered rock wall.
The Salamence shakily propped itself up from the deep, sunken pit.
Pebbles tumbled off its dark green scales, and its wings drooped limply at its sides.
"Whoosh whoosh whoosh..."
It struggled to stand on its forelimbs twice before finally managing to steady itself, its chest heaving violently, each breath accompanied by a heavy panting sound that echoed through the cave.
Dark Lugia hovered in mid-air, its crimson eyes, glowing with an eerie light, watching it.
Li Luochen turned around and looked at the shiny new Salamence with his companion: "Now, do I deserve your approval?"
"Roar." (Human, I acknowledge you. Tell me, what do you want?)
Li Luochen pondered for a moment, then took out a high-grade ball from his waist and held it up in front of the Flying Dragon.
The small sphere gleamed with a cold, metallic light in the cave's dim glow, reflected in the Salamence's vertical pupils.
"Salamander, I'm going to catch you."
"Roar?" (To subdue me?)
The Flying Dragon paused slightly, its massive head tilting unconsciously, a hint of hesitation flashing in its eyes.
Subdue it?
Does this human really know what he or she is saying?
Indeed, its strength is beyond doubt, and it is in the prime of its life as a dragon, with its scales still hard and its dragon breath not yet waning.
Looking across the Hoenn region, there are very few rivals who can match it.
However, only it knows that beneath this seemingly invincible body lies a long-standing hidden wound.
That was left behind when I followed Liekongzuo in my early years.
The specific details of that battle have long since faded with time, but the scars left by the wounds have never disappeared.
It damaged the very foundation.
Since then, no matter how hard it has tried to improve or how fiercely it has fought, its strength has not improved even slightly.
For a Dragon-type Pokémon whose mission is to become stronger, this is nothing short of a prison with no way out.
not to mention--
It has been countless years since it left the Pillar of the Sky to come and rest at Meteor Falls.
It's quiet here, with the familiar magnetic field of meteorites, warm rock formations, and a sky you don't have to look up at.
There was no majestic gaze from Rayquaza during his patrols, no duty or mission to be upheld to the death.
As the days went by, its once yearning to tear the sky apart had long since been worn down by the long silence, leaving it with little warmth left.
It's no longer the ferocious dragon that used to soar into the heavens with a single glance...
