Chapter 358: Conquering Regiace/The Bud Crown King Falls into a Trap

Things went on just as Mudan said.

Regiace's blizzard spread 360 degrees without dead ends, and the biting cold wind spread with a chill that seemed to freeze the soul. The ground was frozen with a thick layer of ice. If an untrained Pokémon moved on it, it would slip.

But the Azure Blade Ghost, who had activated the barrier, broke the barrier that was frozen like an eggshell with one sword.

Then, the second Regret Sword broke through the air and slashed on Regiace's solid body again.

Clang!

It was still a crisp knocking sound caused by the collision between the blade and the body.

The Azure Blade Ghost was not discouraged by this. According to Luo Mu's instructions, he took turns to restrain Regiace's fire and fighting moves, and occasionally added ghost moves. His steady and agile steps were not affected by the ice at all.

For a moment, the entire ruins was filled with the rhythmic clanging sounds of swords colliding with the ice body that was as strong as steel.

It was as if the forging master, the Blue Flame Blade Ghost, was forging his dual-wielded flame swords with all his strength.

The scene at this moment seemed extremely thrilling, and even the Blue Flame Blade Ghost's attacks seemed unable to cause damage to Regiace's solid body.

It seemed that as long as the Blue Flame Blade Ghost took a wrong step, he would be frozen by Regiace and fall into the abyss.

But what was the most real situation?

The yellow dots on Regiace's face flashed faster and faster. Even the legendary giant who had no emotional fluctuations felt difficult to deal with the Blue Flame Blade Ghost at this time.

Regiace raised his hand, and the invisible energy lock seemed to drag the afterimage. The extremely agile Blue Flame Blade Ghost gathered the electromagnetic cannons in both hands again.

It was such a powerful combination of lock + electromagnetic cannon, but it was directly broken by the Blue Flame Blade Ghost with two consecutive swords.

Moreover, even Regiace's other moves were avoided by the Azure Blade Ghost one by one, and at the same time, his body was forced to play several sounds of sword blades hitting his body.

Because of his agility.

Even though their strengths were similar, Regiace's threat to the Azure Blade Ghost was actually not as great as that of Shimi's Super Blastoise.

The damage caused by the Azure Blade Ghost was also accumulating smoothly. Even though it looked unscathed, it was only because of Regiace's strong physical strength as a legendary elf that the injury had not yet revealed its presence.

"Sword of Regret!"

"Hiss!"

The Azure Blade Ghost let out a low cry, and the Azure Flame on the Flame Great Sword surged again.

This time, its mind was filled with the insights from the previous two swordsmanship competitions with the Iron Warrior. At this moment, the opponent's swordsmanship, which was sometimes as fast as the wind and sometimes as powerful as the wind, was completely mastered by the Azure Blade Ghost.

In the purple pupils of the Blue Blade Ghost, on the side of Regiace's light blue polyhedron crystal column, a crack that was extremely small due to continuous slashing was extremely clear at this moment.

Crouching down to avoid the terrifying destructive light, the Blue Blade Ghost rushed to Regiace's side with both feet, and before its slow movements and senses could react, two flaming swords were swung down heavily!

Clang! Clang!

As the flaming swords slashed at Regiace's body, two loud and clear clanging sounds were played in succession.

"Chichichi!!!"

This time Regiace's reaction was great, and its rotation stopped, as if it was stunned in place.

On its clean light blue body, cracks like spider webs appeared, and Luo Mu did not miss the crisp "click" sound.

So, knowing that the time had come, Luo Mu spoke without hesitation.

"Flash Charge!"

The Blue Flame Blade Ghost stepped on the ice, and his cold eyes were stained with a layer of burning. The blue flames on the flaming sword climbed up his body, and in the blink of an eye, he turned into a blazing fireball and rushed straight towards Regiace!

Wherever the Blue Flame Blade Ghost passed, the water vapor released by the ice layer melted by high temperature condensed into frost at low temperature, but when the frost was further heated and melted by high temperature, it formed water vapor covering the vision.

The next moment.

Pound-bang!

The Blue Flame Blade Ghost hit Regiace with a flash charge with all his strength. The violent fire storm swept away all the water vapor around, and more water vapor rose because of the further melting of the ice layer.

The violent explosion seemed to penetrate the eardrum of the person, and the scorching air distorted the cold air transformed by Regiace.

Mudan and Xia Keya's eyes were wide open, as if they were shocked by the scene before them.

Xia Keya couldn't help but think about what would happen if her stupid father's King Bronze Elephant encountered this attack.

After a while, the movement finally stopped.

"Pooh~"

Dragonite took a step forward, and the dragon wings on its back flapped several times quickly. The whirlwind rolled the steam that blocked the view to the top of the ruins, and the scene inside finally entered Luo Mu's field of vision.

The Blue Blade Ghost half-knelt on the ground, closed his eyes and calmly endured the backlash from the Flash Charge.

Regiace was even more unbearable. His body fell to the ground. His originally extremely solid body had serious defects. The ice cubes scattered on the ground that had melted most of the way were probably originally part of his body.

The yellow dots that should be its eyes even flickered weakly, and a few weak mechanical sounds with unknown meanings rang out.

"Beep, beep, ah."

Seeing that the situation was settled, Luo Mu took Cosmogu, who was sleeping soundly, out from under his clothes without waking up the battle. Under the protection of Mimikyuu, he came to the Blue Blade Ghost, stopped and stretched out his hand to it.

"Can you still stand up?"

"Hiss."

The Blue Blade Ghost nodded gently, did not refuse Luo Mu's help, took a deep breath and slowly stood up.

Just now, it was just a little tired because of the physical strength consumed by dodging and swinging the sword, so it just took a short rest.

For the Blue Blade Ghost, Regiace could not cause any considerable damage to it almost throughout the whole process.

The most serious injury was the counter-injury caused by releasing the Flash Charge when targeting the weakness that he forcibly "created" in Regiace.

"That's good, but after we leave here later, let the Flower Therapy Ring release the Flower Therapy for you."

Luo Mu breathed a sigh of relief and thought that this result was not bad.

None of the trump cards he had prepared were used, and he defeated the legendary giant Regiace with only the power of the Azure Blade Ghost.

The plan to let the Azure Blade Ghost continue to attack the same position, so that attacks that could not break through the defense could also successfully break through the defense, was also successful.

All this is inseparable from what the Azure Blade Ghost learned from the previous battle with the Iron Warrior.

At least the previous Azure Blade Ghost could not easily avoid Regiace's large-scale attacks that were thrown everywhere like they were free of charge, while continuing to accurately aim at one place to cause superimposed attacks.

"Mystery~"

At this time, Luo Mu found that the corner of his clothes was pulled.

Looking down, he found that it was the Mimikyu.

The Mimikyu first pulled the corner of Luo Mu's clothes to attract his attention, and then pointed at Regiace lying on the ground, as if asking Luo Mu whether he wanted to subdue it.

"Subdue it"

After roughly understanding what Mimikyu wanted to express through its eyes and actions, Luo Mu fell into thought.

The three pillars, Regiace, Regischilu and Regirock, often appear as guards of a certain place. Perhaps when Regichikas created them, he wanted them to guard something.

If Regiace is obedient after being captured, he can be used to guard the farm, but he needs to be careful that it will affect the environment.

[Ding! Capture Regiace/Let it fall asleep again to open the door of the ruins]

The system also seemed to be unwilling to be lonely and used jumping text to make its presence felt in his eyes.

Fortunately, Luo Mu already had an idea. Since he had made up his mind, he didn't hesitate.

After all, the opportunity was in front of him. Who cares? He will consider the rest later.

Speaking of which, this was his first attempt to capture a legendary elf only by fighting.

For example, Moltres was first a weapon and then a gift. A stick and a sweet date plus a little concern made it fall into the trap.

Luo Mu immediately took out a few high-level balls with very good comprehensive performance and threw them one by one at Regiace lying on the ground.

Should we say that it is worthy of being a legendary elf? Obviously, Regiace had been hit by the weakness of the Azure Blade Ghost and lost his ability to fight, but the first four high-level balls exploded one by one and broke into several petals.

Just when Luo Mu was about to throw the fifth high-level ball, the unconscious Regiace seemed to wake up.

"Chijiji--!"

Regiace made a few mechanical sounds with a distorted tone, and wanted to support his body with his arms to stand up, but because a large piece of ice was missing from his body, it was particularly difficult to get up.

Luo Mu, who knew something, immediately threw the fifth high-level ball. The moment Regiace was hit, his whole body turned into red light and merged into the high-level ball.

The high-level ball fell on the ice layer and shook three times in a row.

Mudan and Xia Keya, who were rushing in from a distance, did not dare to breathe, their hearts pounding, for fear that their voices would affect the result of the capture.

Fortunately, Luo Mu was very lucky. Obviously, Regiace's consciousness had recovered this time, and he even wanted to continue to act.

But the capture was directly successful.

Stare!

Three bright yellow stars twinkled on the high-level ball.

Luo Mu was slightly startled and blinked. He didn't expect that he only spent five high-level balls to successfully capture it.

He thought that if something went wrong, he would have to fight again.

After all, Regiace, Regischilu and Regirock can repair their bodies by "preying" on ice, metal and rocks. The ice melted by the Blue Blade Ghost is only in a small circle around. Regiace's "fuel" is everywhere.

Luo Mu picked up the high-level ball containing the Ice God Pillar Regiace, and Mimikyu climbed onto Luo Mu's shoulder and made a happy cry.

The Blue Blade Ghost also nodded with satisfaction.

Anyway, there are many more companions, and Regiace is not a big deal. What's more, in its eyes, being captured by Luo Mu is still a step up for Regiace!

At this time, with the help of Dragonite and Swampert, Mudan and Xiakoya walked carefully on the ice and came to Luo Mu, with a happy face: "Congratulations, teacher/Luo Mu, you have captured Regiace!"

"Thank you."

Luo Mu smiled gently, asked them one by one about their physical condition and whether they could still hold on, then shrunk the advanced ball and looked at the closed door.

Regiace has been captured, so the door should be opened soon, right?

Just when Mudan and Xiakoya wanted to ask what they had to do next to leave the iceberg ruins, a low and long roar sounded from the door.

Then, the door panel began to move slowly and firmly. The open gap brought a strong cold airflow, blowing away the dust deposited in the door gap, and filling the air with an ancient atmosphere.

The real sunlight shone into the ruins as the ancient door opened. Through these rays of light, the scenery of the snowy valley can be clearly seen.

Outside the gate, a figure with its back to the light floated into the ruins at high speed as if it had been waiting for a long time!

Looking at the strange Pokémon, Mudan and Xia Keya were stunned.

And Luo Mu hugged Cosmog in his arms a little tighter, with a look of surprise in his eyes.

But it was just an accident, and the Bud Crown King directly fell into the trap?

The moment the door opened, this was also the first time that the Bud Crown King rushed into the ruins without thinking, and came to Luo Mu and his Pokémon like a gust of wind.

At this time, the Bud Crown King's brain, which had forgotten to work because of worry, started to work again.

Looking at the stunned Luo Mu who was holding Cosmogu who was sleeping soundly in his arms, the few Pokémon around him who were considered strong in the eyes of the Bud Crown King, and the two bewildered girls.

Then he used telekinesis to look at the interior of the iceberg ruins, the breath of heat and cold intertwined, the ice layer full of traces of battle, and the missing guardian stone statue.

The Bud Crown King instantly knew that he was impulsive.

This human Luo Mu passed the test of the iceberg ruins with his own strength. I am afraid that the ice giant was also collected by him with that magical ball.

In fact, there is no need to worry about it.

The Bud Crown King was stunned for a second, and finally looked at Cosmogu who was sleeping soundly in Luo Mu's arms. His figure gradually faded and was about to start teleportation.

"Wait a minute, Bud Crown King."

At this time, Luo Mu suddenly spoke up and wanted to call the Bud Crown King.

Mudan and Xia Keya's eyes flashed with surprise. This big green Pokémon is the legendary King of Plenty, the legendary king who once ruled the Galar region - Bud Crown?

Dragonite and the others also stared at Bud Crown curiously, observing this king who was forgotten by later generations.

It seemed that he had changed his mind. Bud Crown's gradually fading figure reappeared. Luo Mu was a little surprised: "You are willing to communicate with me!"

Bud Crown, who did not change his mind, had an embarrassed look on his face.

Just now, he only wanted to leave here, so as not to feel the pain of tearing his heart when he saw Cosmog again, and he was more and more reluctant to leave.

But Bud Crown forgot that even if the gate of the ruins was opened, it still couldn't use teleportation inside.

"Ahem. At this point, what else do you want to say to me?" It's not good to leave without saying a word at this point, so the Bud Crown suggested: "Go outside the ruins. If you stay too long, the gate here will close again."

"Ah!?"

Bodan and Shakoa, who were experiencing the telepathy from Pokémon for the first time and felt that their horizons were broadened, exclaimed.

Bodan said so, and Luo Mu didn't hesitate and nodded: "Okay, let's leave here immediately."

Let Dragonite pick up Bodan and Shakoa, and put the Blade of the Blade back into the Poké Ball to let it rest first. After Luo Mu left the ice area with Cosmog in his arms with the help of Swampert, he quickly walked out of the ruins and returned to the snow valley.

When he came to the outside world, Luo Mu felt that it was warmer outside. It is conceivable how extreme the temperature was just affected by Regiace. If you stay in the iceberg ruins for a long time, you may really be frozen to death.

Shortly after the few people left the iceberg ruins, the ancient door seemed to know that the people inside had left, and the door panel began to move slowly and firmly.

After a low and long humming sound, the door of the ruins was completely closed.

The Bud Crown King retracted his gaze on the door and looked sideways at Luo Mu, his telepathic tone was slightly cold.

"Now you can make your opinion."

Mudan and Xia Keya stood behind Luo Mu nervously, not daring to breathe.

After all, the king in front of him was a real king in history!

Every move was really full of majesty

Nodding gently, Luo Mu put Cosmogu in his arms, not because he wanted to monopolize Cosmogu, but simply because he was afraid that it would freeze.

After doing all this, Luo Mu said to the slightly warmer eyes of the King of the Flower Crown: "We have investigated your past achievements and history in the Frozen Village."

"Oh?"

The King of the Flower Crown paused with a very low floating movement and stopped in mid-air. From this point, it can be seen that its emotions are not as calm as it seems on the surface.

This point was also accurately captured by Luo Mu. His eyes darkened and he sighed in his heart and said in a deep voice: "The villagers of Frozen Village also regard you as a fictional existence in the compiled story."

Luo Mu briefly told the King of the Flower Crown the views of the villagers that Nimo and the others had collected.

After listening to all of it, the King of the Flower Crown slowly turned around and looked at the environment of the snow valley. I don't know what he was thinking.

After a while, after Luo Mu heard the King of the Flower Crown let out a barely perceptible sigh, it turned around. Whether it was temperament or words, it was still full of the elegance and majesty of the past.

Luo Mu knew that this was because the Bud Crown King did not want to show his vulnerable side to him and to Peony and Xia Keya, the descendants of his former subjects.

"It seems that they do not believe in my existence. Humans have long forgotten the bond they have established with me."

"It doesn't matter. How can I lament for this? I am the King of Plenty! I am not so shallow as to rely on humans!"

The majestic eyes of the Bud Crown King were firm, although Luo Mu's words completely shattered its fantasy.

The answers that it subconsciously ignored or dared not believe were the truth.

Even if the truth was a sharp knife, the Bud Crown King would not be negative or degenerate because of it.

On the contrary, it was because of this that it could make up its mind completely!

Since it was determined not to rely on humans anymore and wanted to restore its strength, there was only one choice.

The Bud Crown King closed his eyes, as if he was having some psychological struggle.

Only at this time, Mudan and Xia Keya could cast a look of pity and heartache on it for a moment.

But it was only for a moment.

Because they both knew very well that a king would not like others to look at him with such eyes.

Luo Mu opened his mouth, but he didn't say anything to comfort the Bud Crown King. Such comfort might be an insult to the Bud Crown King.

After a while, the Bud Crown King opened his eyes and said in a deep voice: "If my beloved horse can return to me, the situation will be better."

It thought a lot. Although it just said that it would not be superficial to rely on humans, Luo Mu, who was entrusted to Cosmogu by itself, was different after all, otherwise it would not have said this.

Looking at Luo Mu, the Bud Crown King continued: "That was the mount I once rode freely, a four-legged Pokémon. The statue in the village was also ridden by me."

"A long time ago, they were my companions in the mountains, but since my power weakened and we parted ways, I don't even know where they are."

"Moreover, you should also know that even if I can really find my beloved horse now, this temporary recovery of meager power is probably not enough, and there is no possibility of riding them."

After the words fell, the Bud Crown King looked up at Luo Mu, as if waiting for his answer.

Being watched by the Bud Crown King, Luo Mu knew that it was now in a desperate situation.

It was a surprise to Luo Mu that the Bud Crown King could not care about its own attitude and honestly express its needs.

The persuasive words he prepared were meaningless. It can be said that the Bud Crown King has truly "fallen into the trap" now!

"Snowstorm Horse and Spirit Horse, right? I will help you regain your strength, and then you agree to leave the Crown Snowfield with me and raise Cosmogu yourself, how about that?"

Luo Mu did not use a coercive tone to force the King of the Crown to agree to his request if he wanted to regain his strength.

Let alone whether the pride of the King of the Crown would allow it to lower its attitude to that point, Luo Mu definitely did not want to do such a thing.

So, his tone was to ask the King of the Crown for his opinion.

"You even know the names of my beloved horses."

A hint of surprise flashed in the eyes of the King of the Crown, and his eyes could not help but look at Cosmogu, who only half of his head was missing in Luo Mu's arms.

Then, it fell into hesitation.

As the king of Galar, even if it was the forgotten king of the past, it had never considered leaving the Crown Snowfield, leaving the Galar region, leaving its own land, and leaving this land full of its past memories.

But Luo Mu's inquiry put the problem on the table--

Even if it regained its power, would it have to reign over this land as a king again?

Not to mention the impact on the existing system and the impact on the Galar region and the descendants of his people if he reigned as king again.

Even if he really regained his power, the Bud Crown felt that his answer would definitely be no.

It no longer wanted to experience such a thing again. This was not cowardice, but the Bud Crown had completely enlightened.

Perhaps, rather than becoming a king again, his heart now actually wanted to be a caregiver, to care for Cosmogu during the confused period after his awakening, filling his empty heart.

After a long silence, the Bud Crown responded: "If you can fulfill your promise, I can consider it."

The answer of the Bud Crown was exactly what Luo Mu wanted.

Now that he said that he would help the Bud Crown find his beloved horses even if he disagreed, since it did not directly refuse, it means that the Bud Crown has been shaken in his heart and began to think about this possibility.

That's enough!

Luo Mu smiled and said, "Then it's a deal!"
