The audience in the livestream also saw the true form of the Pokémon thanks to the camera on Yang.
It was a bird-type Pokémon covered in red feathers.
Its beak was straight and sharp, with a brownish skin tone.
It had a long, streamlined crest and a Tail that billowed like flames, both made of fire; its wings were also covered in flame-shaped feathers.
Its split-toed feet were brown.
...
"This is..."
Meng Xi's palms were sweating, but she still took out her pokédex to search quickly.
She always felt that this Pokémon seemed unusual.
"Ding!"
"Moltres, the legendary bird Pokémon that controls fire, has been famous since long ago for the legend of the Fire Bird.
It is said that after its body is injured, it will enter the lava of a volcano, burning its entire body to heal its wounds.
It dominates everything it sees with its orange, burning-like wings, and sparks shine the moment it flaps them.
Whenever it flaps its wings, the feathers of Moltres will burn brightly, and the red flames that flash out have a beauty that stirs the hearts of those who see them.
When it waves its violently burning wings, even the night sky will be illuminated.
Legend has it that it uses its beautiful burning wings to light up mountain paths, rescuing people in distress there.
It is said that snow countries where Moltres has appeared can enter spring a step earlier, and it is known as the legendary bird Pokémon that flies from the south along with the spring days."
"Le... Legendary... Pokémon!?!"
Not only the two of them, but the audience in the livestream was also stunned by this description.
Except for the Pokémon beside Sister Fei Xiao, this is the second time a legendary Pokémon has appeared in the outside world!
"If that's the case..."
"Yeah! According to the pokédex description, I'm afraid Moltres is the source of this volcanic eruption.
That's why we couldn't detect the volcanic anomaly before! The reason for this disaster turned out to be this one Pokémon!"
At this moment, everything became clear!
The thing that Absol wanted to warn us about was probably the awakening of this Pokémon.
...
"Ah! You... you..."
Yang was so scared at this moment that he fell to the ground on his butt.
Although he knew that lava was approaching from behind, facing the creature in front of him...
Even the pressure it exerted made his legs go weak.
"No... don't hurt me! I... I'm just passing through...
You Pokémon... aren't... aren't you quite friendly! You can't hurt me..."
He stammered, his face covered in snot and tears, completely lacking the demeanor he had during the livestream.
While opening his mouth, he didn't forget to keep kicking his feet, trying hard to slowly move backward.
Moltres looked at the human in front of it indifferently.
However, the next moment.
"Skreeeee!!!"
Moltres raised its slender beak, and flames flowed into it quickly.
"What do you want to do! No... don't... you can't hurt me, aren't you Pokémon gentle in nature!
If you attack me, humans won't let you off!"
Yang saw the other party's movement and guessed its intention.
At this moment, his desire to survive was maxed out, and he used both his hands and feet to desperately try to get away from it.
But...
"Skreeeee!!!"
Moltres didn't care what he said, and the next second, Flamethrower was fired directly at him.
"No... I don't want to die!"
As the flames in his pupils kept growing larger, his life would also pay the price for his actions.
Boom!!!
The screen in the livestream suddenly turned pitch black—the broadcast was interrupted.
But some attentive people noticed one thing.
The moment the livestream went black, a cyan light seemed to flash across the screen and disappear.
But it all happened too fast, and most people probably thought this person had already turned to dust.
Lin Siyu and Meng Xi looked at each other with a tacit understanding, and at this moment, both understood in their hearts.
Then they exited the livestream as if nothing had happened, and continued to head towards the direction of Grovyle.
On the other side, Jiao Wuyan and Ye Jinnian, who were watching the livestream, also saw the surprise in each other's eyes.
They understood that in that instant... they hadn't seen wrong.
"Is it her?" x 2
...
...
"Hoo~"
A heavy exhale came.
A flash of surprise appeared in Moltres's eyes, then it turned around in astonishment to look at the cyan figure behind it.
"I didn't expect there to be someone here?
Hmm? You are that Streamer? Although I don't know why you didn't leave, you're lucky!"
The woman was holding that Yang's collar with one hand, her cyan eyes slowly sizing up the Moltres in front of her.
This person was Fei Xiao.
At the critical moment, when Fei Xiao noticed that there was someone here, she quickly rescued him.
It's just that when he saw the Flamethrower at close range, his eyes rolled back, and he had already fainted from fear.
Fortunately, he didn't lose control of his bladder or bowels, otherwise Fei Xiao might not have really saved him.
But now Fei Xiao had no time to worry about his problems.
"Um... wait a second, I ran so far, let me rest for two seconds, okay?"
Fei Xiao was panting heavily, and she had sweated quite a bit.
However, while adjusting her breathing, she didn't forget to vigilantly stare at the figure of Moltres.
The one she was facing this time was a true god among Pokémon.
Fei Xiao dared not let her guard down easily.
"Skree."
Moltres looked at Fei Xiao with curious eyes.
It hadn't noticed at all just now when this... woman, who could be considered a "human", had rescued that human. (Her ears were revealed at this moment.)
"Haha... I'll take that as a yes!
By the way, if you don't mind, how about we leave now and not disturb each other?"
Fei Xiao maintained a normal appearance on the surface; after all, she wasn't some gangster, so it would be best if they didn't have to fight.
The two sides stared at each other for a few seconds, and the air seemed to have a bit of an awkward taste.
"If you don't answer, I'll take it as you agreeing."
After speaking, Fei Xiao lifted her foot, preparing to take this person and leave this place.
"Skreeeee!!!"
Alarm bells rang in Fei Xiao's heart, she grabbed the person tightly and then performed a Splash.
She landed steadily in a gorgeous arc.
As for the position where she had just been standing, it had already been scorched black by the hot flames, emitting thick black smoke.
The power of this Flamethrower was completely incomparable to the moves of Fletchinder or Hydreigon before!
The expression on Fei Xiao's face suddenly turned as cold as if she had fallen into an ice cave.
"Moltres, there's no grudge between us, do you really have to start a fight!"
"Skreeeee!!!"
Although she couldn't understand what the other party was saying.
But the tense atmosphere between the two sides at this moment seemed to have already given the answer.
Moltres was originally only curious about the other party's skills and didn't pursue immediately, so now...
"Skreeeee!!!"
The flames in its beak attacked Fei Xiao again.
Seeing this scene, Fei Xiao sneered.
Bang!!!
The explosion sounded again.
Fei Xiao, of course, had already dodged away.
Then, with one hand, she threw the thing in her hand towards the distant rock wall.
"Since that's the case, let me experience the power of a legendary Pokémon!"
