Chapter 58: Suicune! Are Legendary creatures also graded? (Please subscribe)

Can Suicune purify sewage? Good heavens, this ability is truly heaven-defying.

Indeed, pollution has always been a big problem, and water pollution is the most severe among them. If Suicune can really purify sewage, it might directly be revered by people, right?

Yes, after all, environmental issues are major problems.

I wonder if Suicune can go to the island nation and purify some of their nuclear wastewater. Their problem of arbitrarily discharging it is really serious.

It would be best to purify the island nation's people as well, to prevent them from mutating.

Preventing mutation, that’s something else.

I really didn't expect that there would be such a relationship between Legendary creatures.

After all, we have only just learned about the concept of Legendary creatures, and we know too little about them.

Alas, I still can't quite believe that these are real.

Even if you don't believe it, there's nothing you can do. From the current situation, Legendary creatures do exist, and their abilities are evident, which determines that their strength cannot be weak.

Indeed, a Pokémon like Entei, which can control volcanoes, cannot be weak; otherwise, it would not possess such an ability at all.

I just don't know how many Legendary creatures there are. Although from the title Three Legendary Beasts, Entei and the others should be very good Pokémon, other Legendary creatures might not be.

Compared to those, aren't you curious about the mission of the Three Legendary Beasts that Anchor mentioned? I always feel there's a big secret in it.

Even if we are curious, what can we do? We know too little about the Three Legendary Beasts right now to guess anything.

If Entei's surprise to the Water Friends was mainly due to its strength, then the Suicune Zhang Yu mentioned afterwards brought a completely different kind of surprise.

They had never expected before that there could be a Pokémon that could purify sewage.

Such an ability was truly incredible, and it was also precisely the ability that humans currently needed.

If it had been in the past, they might not have been so urgent, but after the island nation's repeated self-destructive actions, they also began to feel urgent.

Some even hoped that when Suicune purified the sewage, it would purify the island nation's people along with it.

After all, who knows how many people would be harmed if the island nation continued to act so recklessly?

“What do you think... are Anchor's descriptions of these Legendary creatures, especially what he said about the Three Legendary Beasts, really real?”

“Can Pokémon really be that powerful?”

“It's hard to say about the others, but that Entei is most likely real, after all, that stone slab is the best evidence. As for whether the other two Pokémon are truly real, I cannot confirm.”

Not just ordinary people, but even the Elf Research Group was fervently discussing the matter of Legendary creatures.

“Speaking of Entei, I just remembered something.”

“Do you still remember that very strange volcano we discovered last week?”

During the discussion, a very young Researcher seemed to have thought of something and suddenly brought up something he had almost forgotten.

“Are you talking about that volcano that, after inspection, was about to erupt, but then when we were preparing to evacuate the surrounding population, it delayed its eruption and eventually even entered a state similar to a dormant volcano?”

“Are you trying to say that that volcano was under Entei's control, which is why it ultimately didn't erupt and entered a dormant state?”

“But do you have any evidence to prove this point?”

Upon hearing him say this, another Researcher quickly recalled what he was talking about regarding that volcano.

Generally speaking, volcanoes can be divided into active volcanoes, dormant volcanoes, and extinct volcanoes.

Among them, active volcanoes are the easiest to understand, meaning volcanoes that are currently erupting or are expected to erupt again.

Dormant volcanoes, on the other hand, are those that have erupted in historical times but have long been in a relatively static state, yet still possess the capacity for volcanic activity.

As for extinct volcanoes, they are those that erupted in prehistoric times but have never been active in human history or have not erupted for a long time, and have already lost their activity.

Normally, their classification like this is not problematic.

But the volcano they mentioned broke this classification rule.

It was about to erupt, then it was as if someone suddenly pressed the pause button, rapidly losing a large amount of vitality and entering a state similar to a dormant volcano.

Before, they never understood why this happened, but from the current situation, they seem to have found the reason, or at least, they have a more reliable explanation.

“From the current situation, it is indeed the case. This is already the best explanation.”

“But if it's about evidence, I certainly can't provide it.”

Facing the man's inquiry, the young Researcher immediately shrugged helplessly.

He did want to provide evidence to verify his conjecture, but he truly couldn't do it.

The abilities of Pokémon are too peculiar. To this day, they still haven't been able to detect that kind of energy, let alone go into the volcano to look for evidence.

“Alright, let's put this topic aside for now.”

“What we need to do most right now is to find a way to send professional personnel to search that ruin. We must find it before anyone else. That is the key to understanding Pokémon and the very likely existence of unknown humans.”

“If we're lucky, we might even have other gains.”

Seeing that the Researchers were about to continue arguing, Academician Qin directly pointed out another key aspect of this matter—the ruins.

And prepared to send people to take action.

At this time, Zhang Yu naturally did not know about the actions of the Elf Research Group.

After putting the stone slab back in its original place, he continued to advance deeper into the cave. He really wanted to see what was hidden deeper in this cave.

“Hmm?”

“Did you notice that the cave seems to have become much wider?”

“And the traces of human excavation around here seem to have disappeared.”

After advancing for a certain distance, Zhang Yu gradually noticed something was amiss.

Firstly, regarding the width, the original cave passage, while not narrow, was not particularly wide either. At the very least, when he, along with his two Pokémon, walked side by side, there wasn't much space left on either side.

But now it was different; the passage here gave him a feeling that even several cars could drive in side by side.

And most importantly, even though it had become much wider inside, the traces of excavation around could no longer be seen, which seemed very strange.

Was this because the situation here was originally like this, or was it that after the people who lived here left, other creatures came to live here and covered up the traces they left behind?

Zhang Yu was initially unsure about this question.

But when he turned a corner and saw a gray, spherical stone with two arms in front, he immediately had a certain guess.

“It's Geodude?”

Upon seeing that Pokémon, Zhang Yu was somewhat surprised. Originally, because he hadn't seen any Pokémon since entering the cave, he had almost thought there were no Pokémon living inside.

But from the current situation, perhaps it was just because these Pokémon lived too deep inside.

“Hmm, why did Anchor stop?”

“Wait! What the heck is that stone with two arms? It couldn't be a stone that came to life, could it?”

“If I'm not mistaken, this should be a Pokémon, right?”

“Theoretically, that's true, but this Pokémon looks really strange. But does this really count as a Pokémon?”

“Yes, the entire Pokémon is just a rock, and it looks like a round rock with arms.”

“If I hadn't seen it move just now, I would have definitely thought it was just an ordinary rock and wouldn't have considered it a Pokémon!”

“One can only say that Pokémon are free; they can look however they want.”

“Indeed, some Pokémon really do look quite arbitrary.”

“Compared to appearance issues, what I'm more concerned about is, what is this Pokémon's personality like? Will it get angry easily or something?”

“You're right, this is the question we should really be concerned about.”

The Water Friends, who had originally thought that Zhang Yu's cave trip would yield no results, immediately became excited when they saw Geodude appear.

This was the first time they had seen a Pokémon with such a unique life form.

Compared to Geodude, Oddish and the like were truly insignificant.

“Ahem, you didn't see wrong, that little fellow not far away is indeed a Pokémon.”

“His name is Geodude, and he is a Rock Type and Ground-type Pokémon.”

“As for you thinking his appearance is a bit strange... how should I put it, many Rock Type Pokémon are actually like Geodude, with bodies made of rock, so Geodude like this isn't really that strange.”

Chapter 59: Geodude and Graveler! (Please subscribe)

After noticing the bullet comments in the live broadcast room from the corner of his eye, Zhang Yu immediately began to explain to the Water Friends in the live broadcast room.

“Geodude is a Pokémon that feeds on rocks and soil, usually inhabiting grasslands or mountains, especially in large mountains. He is actually a very common Pokémon; you might even encounter a few while walking on the road.”

“Geodude himself is a relatively gentle Pokémon. As long as you don't provoke them, they won't attack you.”

Zhang Yu naturally knew what the Water Friends cared about most, so he immediately stated this basic information first.

As if to verify his words, at that very moment, Geodude also looked over towards them.
