Descending from the sky, Will, holding a sky-blue energy bone, accurately struck a person's calf.
Smack!
"Ah ah!"
This person only felt the pain with hindsight when falling to the ground, rolling around in the water.
Milotic followed closely behind Will, stretched out her tail, rolled him up, and threw him out of the deep pit.
When she looked back down.
She only saw a black and blue figure flowing on the lake surface.
If it weren't for the subtle ripples occasionally rising on the water surface, Milotic would probably have thought Will had mastered the ability to fly.
He brushed past the remaining seven people.
Every ti he passed a person, a crisp slapping sound would sound simultaneously.
In just two or three seconds.
The people of Team Flare hadn't even reacted, not even having ti to take out their Pokémon, and had already fallen into the water one after another.
This is the drawback of not keeping Pokémon by your side at all tis.
Like Cynthia.
Never needs to worry about being suddenly attacked by soone.
Of course.
It could also be that this group of people were confident enough, not expecting anyone would dare to attack the eight of them, and the speed was so fast they couldn't even react.
"Take them away."
Will casually waved his hand; the bone club in his hand dissipated like blue dust.
Without a word, Milotic rolled everyone up, shrank her body, launched herself, and flew out of the deep pit taking them along.
"Lucario?"
Above the deep pit, Cynthia saw Will hadn't co up yet, and hurriedly called him.
Will waved his hand to her, signaling not to worry.
Then he headed towards the center of the lake.
"Strange."
Professor Sycamore lay next to Cynthia, staring intently at Will, afraid of missing any scene.
He noticed that the water around Will's legs stepping in the lake didn't emit a bloody light!
Is it because he used Aura Power?
Or has Yveltal already woken up?
Neither.
Will didn't use Aura Power.
He also didn't feel his life force draining away at all.
But he could feel Yveltal's sowhat angry emotion beneath the lake surface.
Probably...
Getting up on the wrong side of the bed.
Because he was disturbed from a sweet dream before getting enough sleep, so he was a bit angry.
Right now, Yveltal's state was in a hazy stage, half asleep and half awake.
Will walked to the center of the lake.
Looked down.
A pair of deep blue eyes underwater were quietly looking at him.
If it were anyone else, they would have been scared to death long ago.
But Will knew these eyes weren't focusing on him. The gaze was unfocused, clearly still in a confused state; it was just looking at whoever appeared in front of him.
"Sorry to disturb your sleep."
Will reached his hand pressing downwards into the water.
He felt as if he had touched a rough and scalding rock.
Azure blue light erged underwater.
The deep blue pupils were covered by the light of Aura, gradually closing, and the anger in his heart also gradually subsided:
"Giving you face."
A rough, hoarse voice echoed in Will's ears.
He froze for a mont.
Turned his head to look at Cynthia and Sycamore; the two had no reaction.
Looks like it was telepathy directed at him.
"Thank you."
Will said a word of thanks.
Seeing Yveltal's consciousness gradually settling down, he tapped his foot and quietly left.
Returning to the edge of the pit.
Will took a look.
Those eight Team Flare mbers had already been strangled unconscious by Milotic.
"Lucario, were you using Aura Power to comfort Yveltal just now?"
"Mm, I even heard her (Wait, earlier he said 'rough, hoarse uncle voice') talk to ."
Will nodded, turning his head to look at the bottom of the lake.
That shouldn't have been his auditory hallucination just now.
It seems Yveltal's temper is not as bad as Volcanion said.
The face of their Pokémon world's Face-Face Fruit users (One Piece reference: Shanks) still has so weight with the God of Destruction.
"What?! He woke up? But didn't go berserk?"
Sycamore walked over in disbelief.
"Mm."
"...Is that so, this is a major discovery. It seems Yveltal is not as dangerous as the legends say; under certain circumstances, communication can still be attempted."
Sycamore lowered his head falling into his own deep thought.
He was thinking.
Could he change his plan of asking Xerneas to asking Yveltal.
But in just two seconds, he gave up.
The risk is too great.
Yveltal's fierce reputation is right there.
Sycamore still didn't dare to bet.
Will didn't interrupt him either.
Yveltal's temper...
Using moody to describe it should be the most appropriate.
Volcanion, perhaps because of so past encounters, spoke with so bias and personal emotions mixed in, but it wasn't entirely wrong.
Yveltal's temper is on the sa level as Giratina's.
If he really got angry, there's no need to doubt he'd dare to attack Arceus, let alone re Zygarde and Aura Guardians.
But the level of getting up on the wrong side of the bed like just now is relatively easy to comfort.
Anyway, in the movie, when Yveltal was woken up, he was cald down by Xerneas.
The two didn't even really fight.
Just clashed beams a couple of tis.
"What does Yveltal's voice sound like?"
Cynthia was obviously more interested in Yveltal himself.
"Emmm, fierce uncle voice."
Will recalled for a mont, feeling it was similar to Kyurem's voice.
"Wonder what Xerneas's voice will be like."
"Probably an auntie voice full of maternal nature."
Will spread his hands.
"Looks like the energy source we found before was Yveltal. Fortunately we ca, otherwise, if Team Flare had woken Yveltal up, the Great Destruction event would probably be staged in this Allearth Forest again."
Sycamore walked over, turning his head looking at those people in red lying on the ground.
The cloaks on their bodies had already been stripped off.
Confird to be Team Flare mbers undoubtedly.
Will glanced towards the east.
Just now when Yveltal was about to wake up, he felt a hazy yet vigorous Aura being born over there too.
Not far.
Over two hundred ters.
Presumably Xerneas.
But Will didn't say this out loud.
She was sleeping soundly, no need to disturb her.
A good temper isn't sothing to be ssed with like this.
Not to ntion any regional League has spies planted by evil forces.
Team Flare is currently a cooperative enterprise of the Kalos League.
Telling Sycamore that Xerneas is here, he would have to report this major intelligence to the Kalos League.
And this is equivalent to telling Team Flare this intelligence.
Moreover.
This is a beautiful misunderstanding.
Two powerful energy sources intertwined and overlapping, making it look like there is only one.
Since Yveltal has already been exposed, might as well let him act as a shield, covering up Xerneas's existence, lest Team Flare catches them all in one net in the future.
"Wonder what these guys' purpose is, could they have found this place by accident?"
"We'll know after going back and interrogating them; Psychic-type Pokémon's hypnosis is very useful."
Sycamore wasn't worried about this.
They just need to keep an eye on this group of people now.
In about ten minutes.
Officer Jenny rushed over with two assistants.
After understanding the situation from Sycamore, she imdiately realized the seriousness of the matter.
Promptly reported to the Kalos League, called for backup, and controlled the eight Team Flare mbers.
Will acted as "lookout" during this ti.
Within five hundred ters.
Any suspicious humans approaching would be discovered by him imdiately.
This was also to prevent other Team Flare mbers from suddenly appearing and causing trouble.
Busy for a whole day.
At past nine o'clock at night.
The starving Will and Cynthia finally returned to the Pokémon Center in Snowbelle City.
Will was extrely tired.
He quickly scarfed down a few bites of food and went back to his room to shower and sleep first.
Cynthia, however, was quite energetic.
She insisted on following Sycamore to the police station to discuss counterasures for today's events.
As soone who experienced it personally.
Blonde-kun was qualified to participate in this discussion, and if Will hadn't already gone to sleep, Sycamore even hoped Will could participate in the eting together.
After the eting ended.
Sycamore borrowed the laboratory of the scientific researchers stationed at the police station in Snowbelle City.
Today on those Team Flare mbers.
They collected so more beautiful rainbow-colored stones.
Sycamore wanted to research to see how these stones were different from the batch in his laboratory.
"Professor, are you still going to look for Xerneas next?"
Cynthia watched quietly from the side.
She really wasn't unfamiliar with these scientific research experints, and could even help Sycamore with so small tasks.
After all, Blonde-kun also served as an assistant to Professor Rowan for a while in the past.
She had more or less co into contact with various experints.
"No, that genetic theory Lucario ntioned gave quite a bit of inspiration; for a long ti to co I might research in that direction."
Sycamore shook his head, taking all the things out of his backpack.
"Xerneas can be encountered but not sought after; I don't plan to keep chasing energy sources everywhere."
He rummaged through the pile of items.
Grabbed two tools and continued researching the stones.
"Professor, could you research an instrunt that can detect energy sources? Like the one those Team Flare mbers had. Then we can go check the energy sources for you."
Cynthia's eyes lit up as she spoke.
"Hm?"
Sycamore's movents paused.
"Right, I can ask others to help check these energy sources. Cynthia, you've given a good idea."
"Right? Coincidentally, the machine in Team Flare's hands today can be used for research, making it easier for you to develop a similar machine."
"Makes sense."
Sycamore nodded.
That way, the efficiency of finding Xerneas would be greatly improved.
Unfortunately.
Their idea was destined to fail.
Only if Yveltal, this energy source, disappears, can they discover there is another energy source in this Allearth Forest.
Otherwise, Xerneas's energy source will never be discovered, and they won't be able to find her.
This is not only directed at the Kalos League.
It's also directed at Team Flare.
If Team Flare sees the hiding place of the Cocoon of Destruction heavily guarded and protected by the Kalos League, they might temporarily shift their target and aim at "finding Xerneas".
Then they will find.
No matter how they search, they can't find Xerneas.
In that case.
It could at least delay Team Flare for several years.
Will's purpose of deliberately concealing Xerneas's existence would be over-fulfilled.
