Chapter 324 The island known as the source of water and life
The people who came to Asia Island from the Pallet Town tour group were not only Qinglu, Ye Zi, Xiaoxia and others, but also Zhulan, Hanako and Professor Oak Yamanashi.
At the same time, there were also Articuno, Zapdos and Moltres that the Pallet Town trio had captured respectively... Articuno was temporarily handed over to Professor Oak by Professor Yamanashi from Sinnoh.
According to Professor Oak, he hoped to take advantage of this rare opportunity of the gathering of the three sacred birds to try to communicate with the special species of the three legendary birds in Asia Island, understand the differences between different individuals of the legendary elves, and even try to confirm the gender differences and proportions between them.
"I have a question."
After listening to the explanations of Qinglu and Ye Zi, Zhou You's face was even more puzzled: "Ye Zi, how did you defeat Moltres with Bulbasaur and a team of grass-type elves?"
Even the second-level gods were as thick as tanks, with mysterious protection and basically not susceptible to abnormal states such as poison, paralysis and burns. Moltres would even fly back to the volcano to revive with full blood when they were beaten to low blood. No matter how you look at it, it doesn't seem like an opponent that Ye Zi, who specializes in the receiving team, can handle.
"Ah, this..." When Ye Zi mentioned her experience of defeating Moltres, her expression was extremely intriguing. "I found it in the passage leading to the Silver Cave on the Champion Road a few days ago. At that time, Moltres was hiding in a small cave to avoid the once-in-a-century storm, and then I took the opportunity to challenge Xiao Zong..."
The extremely cold environment made Moltres somewhat depressed, and Venusaur flexibly used the vine whip to dodge and move in a small space, dragging rocks with the vine whip to cause effective attacks, and using the "Nature Force" move to use "Rockfall" and "Power Gem" in an endless stream, and finally dragged this battle into a war of attrition that the grass-type Pokémon is best at.
Since Moltres was targeted in advance, the Choco-fruit she prepared, which could increase the resistance to fire energy in a stress-sensitive manner, played a big role, and there was also the Wind Fairy behind to help, and the trainer himself was there to sprinkle medicine to replenish the tree fruit.
If Venusaur's physical strength is really exhausted or the injury is too serious, Ye Zi will decisively let Wind Fairy and Dewball create a lot of fog to run away quickly, and by the way, seal the cave entrance with rocks to prevent Moltres from running out... and set up a lot of traps.
So Moltres was exhausted and didn't want to fight anymore, and reluctantly accepted the invitation to assist in the research temporarily.
Zhou You: Actually, you came from the tough guy next door to fight on the set, right?
"I don't understand." Zhou You made an astonishing voice, "Why did Moltres run to the Champion Road and Silver Mountain for no reason."
For example, Articuno stayed in the ice cave of the Twin Islands to escape the summer heat, and Zapdos occasionally lived in unmanned power stations with abundant electricity. Why didn't Moltres go to the volcano and stay in the snow mountain cave?
Could it be that the extinct volcano of Silver Mountain is about to revive?
※It is worth mentioning that Moltres will only stay at the Lantern Mountain when it is in Fire Leaf, and basically stay in strange places at other times.
Ye Zi took out the illustrated book after hearing this:
【It is said that as long as Moltres appears, spring will come. 】
"Professor Oak believes that it is not Moltres that brings spring, but that Moltres will start to move in spring, and will find a suitable place to spend the winter in autumn."
Even the legendary Pokémon are still living creatures, and it is normal to be in low spirits in seasons they don't like.
Moltres seems to prefer to stay in a dark and narrow cave at this time. The Silver Mountain is cold outside and relatively warm inside, which unexpectedly fits its habits.
"Bring the bad guys." Zhou You, who understood the cause and effect, commented.
Ye Zi was so angry that he ignored him immediately-didn't you rush into the Gemini Island Cave with the other three people and beat up the hibernating Articuno! ?
Although it was Articuno who made the first move...
...
"There is a view in the academic community now that lightning struck the sulfur-rich primitive atmosphere of this planet to form the initial amino acids and proteins, and the warm volcanoes kept them active. Under countless miraculous coincidences, the first life was born and spread to the world with the ocean currents."
When Zhou You was taken to the hotel by the Pallet Town tour group, Ohki, Yamanashi and Takeran happened to be discussing some academic issues on Asia Island, which is known as the "source of water and life" in the world.
"But I personally think that this primordial soup theory is too unrealistic. Its possibility is lower than that of a long-tailed monster using its tail to type a blindly typewriter and write a million-word Pokémon novel that is logical, practical, profound, and philosophical. It is better to believe in creationism than to expect such a miracle."
Zhulan obviously cannot accept this statement: "Professor Oak, ancient people in different times and places are trying to convey the existence of gods. Those ancient myths are meaningful and may not be human fantasies."
In terms of the result theory, Zhulan's point of view is the most reliable one. There may indeed be a creator in this world.
"The so-called 'divine beasts' in people's mouths are nothing more than powerful and ancient elves. People in different regions have different myths. Just like the people in Kanto believe that Lugia is the god of the sea, while the people in Unova believe that it is more of an ocean current and monsoon god. As for the Hoenn region, they believe that Lugia does not even have a water attribute and is clearly the god of atmospheric cold movement. Of course, the god of the sea should be Kyogre."
Rather than "mythical beasts", Pokémon doctors like Dr. Oak prefer to call them "legendary Pokémon". They believe that these creatures have intelligence that is equal to or even surpasses that of humans, and their power is naturally earth-shattering and easy to achieve. It can plunge the entire continent into disaster.
But this and creation are two different things. It seems that many people think that these elves, who are given the title of mythical beasts by humans, have some kind of power, but they are more likely to simply have more power than ordinary elves and an affinity for natural energy.
In Dr. Oki's view, the only creatures in this world that are qualified to be called gods are Dialga, Palkia, Giratina and the Holy Spirits of the three lakes. However, they obviously do not control creation. The ability to live.
The Creator created these six beings who are both gods and elves, but it cannot necessarily be concluded that the Creator created other life forms.
"Elves are too magical creatures, and their existence is completely inconsistent with common sense." Faced with the insistence of his former students, Dr. Yamanashi shook his head helplessly, "Their evolution is not the same as that of other creatures. Perhaps in They should be discussed separately for the time being when discussing the origin of life."
Dr. Yamanashi supports the idea that God created elves, and other life was born in the ocean.
As for humans, they may be either a miracle of evolution or a branch that split off from the elves.
Judging from the fact that humans and elves can intermarry and produce offspring, the latter view is slightly more likely.
But to be honest, this origin that spans hundreds of millions of years is almost impossible to trace. No matter how much research is done, in the end it will become a matter of disagreement among scholars and theologians.
"Why don't you try to find Arceus or Dialga to find out the truth?" Zhou You, who happened to walk into the room at this time, asked a natural question.
