Pokémon Researcher Road

Chapter 63 The Incomplete Altar

In this endless blue world, the three of them drove the Pokémon to their heart's content.None of the three are professional riders, so they can't play the highest speed of the elves, but everyone doesn't care about this.

He didn't know how long he had been swimming, but just when Xuanjian thought that everyone was going to spend the remaining time in this way, Green River suddenly discovered: "There seems to be something over there." As he said that, he controlled the Gyarados to leave the team and swim to that side.

"We also follow." Xuanjian said, although he found nothing, but he believed in Mr. Green River.Then he and Duogui drove Gyarados and Chenglong to chase after them.

As everyone approached, the target gradually grew from a small black dot to bigger and bigger, and finally it could be clearly recognized as a suspended black cylinder.There are other things in this space?Maybe it was another amazing discovery. Thinking of this, the three of them sped up their speed once again.

Finally, the three of them came to the target and saw clearly what it was.

"This is the altar?" Xuanjian said with some uncertainty.The thing in front of me was suspended obliquely in front of everyone, with a diameter of about 50 meters and a height of about three meters. From the appearance, it seemed to be a bit like an altar, but the base was destroyed due to unknown reasons, but the main part still existed due to the strong material.

Regarding these things, Green River undoubtedly has the most right to speak, and he did not hesitate. After observing for a while, he said: "It should be an altar, and it is an altar made of extremely precious materials. Although there are few places where the altar is used now, the shape and the pattern on it both indicate that this is an ancient altar."

"Mr. Green River, you said it is a very precious material, but what kind of material is it? It seems that it is some kind of metal." Duogui asked curiously.

"Do you guys know metal coatings?"

"I know, props that can help elves evolve."

"Well, the metal coating is actually a kind of activated metal. After it is applied to the surface of the elf, it will react with the energy in the elf's body and solidify again, turning the elf into a steel attribute. This kind of metal is very precious, and the whole body of this altar is cast with metal crystals after the metal coating has solidified."

"Ah!" Xuanjian and Duogui were stunned.The price of metal coating is very expensive. It is too wasteful to use such precious materials to cast altars.

"Generally speaking, altars are usually made of soil, but this kind of altar is not strong enough and is only for temporary use. The altars that are really used for a long time are made of very sophisticated materials. For example, the altars of the Whirlpool Islands are made of terrazzo mined in the deep sea, which is rich in water system energy and is strong enough. Terrazzo is a difficult material to mine, and the price is very expensive, but it is not worth mentioning compared to this altar."

"Yes, this one is made of metal crystals. No wonder the base is damaged, but this altar still exists."

"And it's not just that simple. Just think about it. The Whirlpool Islands worship the sea and the god of the sea, but they only use terrazzo to build the altar, but this altar is cast with metal crystals. I don't know what kind of great existence it is worshiping."

Xuanma did not speak, but began to think. Although he did not know whether the sea god worshiped by the Whirlpool Islands was Lugia who appeared here or the legendary Gaioka who created the sea, but there is no doubt that both of them are of the same level. If there is a higher existence than them, then it may be the legendary creation god Arceus.

Although he had some conjectures, Xuanjian didn't say anything, because he couldn't explain how a child in his ordinary family knew these confidential news.So he turned to say: "Mr. Green River, the patterns on the altar seem to be some murals, why don't we take a closer look!"

"Okay, let's look over there, but be careful, we can't judge whether there is any danger here."

"En." Xuanjian and Duogui nodded, and the three of them moved closer to look at the murals.

Due to the age, although these murals were not damaged because of the solid material of the altar, although there was a cultural generation gap, through those simple pictures, everyone still vaguely understood what seemed to be described above.It seems to be talking about a group of people living in one place. Because the climate is dry and the land is barren, they built this altar, hoping to pray to God for rain.In the end, God responded to them and brought them plenty of rain, which made people's lives better, so they cast this altar to express their gratitude to God.

"Some old-fashioned stories." Green River commented.In ancient times when science and technology were underdeveloped, people had no other way but to rely on the power of Pokémon, so they worshiped Pokémon a lot.Some worship still remains even now, "By the way, do you think the space we are in now is formed by the residual energy of that 'God'?"

"Impossible, since you said that they worship Pokémon, then the so-called 'god' should be Pokémon. It's hard to imagine what kind of Pokémon is so powerful and has so much residual energy." Duogui said with some uncertainty.

Regarding the multi-track judgment, Xuanjian shook his head: "This is not necessarily true. Some legendary beasts have the ability to destroy heaven and earth, and it is completely understandable to have so much energy left."

"However, there are two types of energy in this space, water and wind, and they seem to come from the same source. It seems that the divine beast with the water flying attribute has never been found before!"

Xuanjian shook his head, and didn't say anything more, that Arceus can change all attributes, few people in this world should know about it!

"Unfortunately, it is recorded in this mural that the so-called god did not really descend, but sent an envoy to perform it on his behalf." Green River said regretfully.

"An envoy?" The two looked at Luhe in surprise. Limited by their experience and observation ability, they didn't understand as much as Luhe. When they heard what Luhe said, they immediately moved over.

"Well, look, there is still a portrait of that God Envoy here." Green River pointed to the mural and said.The two rushed over and saw the place Green River was pointing at. In the picture, there was a man in a robe standing on the altar, holding a scale in his right hand and a ball in his left hand. In the next picture, the ball turned into rainwater all over the sky.

"Is this a human? Or an elf in human form?" Xuanjian asked curiously.In addition to elves with innate ability to transform, such as Ditto and Zoroya, other powerful elves can also disguise themselves as humans.

"It should be a person." Green River guessed, "The balance in his hand symbolizes balance, justice, and law in ancient culture. These are not owned by elves. And there is a bigger portrait here." After speaking, Green River led the two to the other side.

This portrait is bigger and clearer, and you can even clearly see the facial features of the god.Below the portrait, there is a row of text.

"Mr. Green River, what do these words mean?" Duogui asked.

"I only know the first few. They are ancient characters, which means balance guardians. I guess the latter ones should be the names of the gods. It seems that they are not in the same language as the previous characters."

"Iosis." Xuanjian said suddenly.

"What?" Green River and Duogui turned to Xuanjian at the same time.

"I know those words, and the pronunciation is: Iosis, which means balance and protection." Xuanjian explained calmly, but his heart was turned upside down.These words belong to the writing system that my father gave me since I was a child. They are completely different from the previous ones. They are like the language of the multi-track sung songs, and they all contain powerful words. It seems that the secrets hidden in my village are far from being as simple as I thought.

　Will I tell you that this is a pit related to the following plot?
