He knows Pokémon better than me

A wild mountainous area between Random Town and Curtain City.

On both sides of the mountain are normal flat jungles, which can be passed smoothly...but it takes a long detour.

But if you want to pass this section of road the fastest, the shortest route is naturally to pass through the middle of the mountain.

But unlike other mountain tunnels... here, sandwiched in the middle is an abandoned man-made labyrinthine valley.

Although it is a completely open-air terrain, the intricate forks of the maze, coupled with the ups and downs of the stairs, form a 2.5D maze... Once you enter the valley maze, without a map guide, it will be really difficult to get out completely for a while .

There are even some passages leading to the surrounding cave tunnels.

At this moment, a boy in a blue-purple sportswear is standing at the highest point of this open-air valley maze, overlooking the entire venue.

This is a stepped platform with descending steps leading in all directions on all sides.

Shinji with an indifferent expression is closing his eyes and recuperating, as if he is waiting for something.

And beside him stood an upright dragon Pokémon.

The yellow body is like a burning flame, covered with fiery red patterns, and has a long tail of flames similar to a fire-breathing dragon.

The duckbill head and the skin above the brows are rising like flames.

Duckbill Charmander!

This is Shinji's newly tamed fire-attribute Pokémon after releasing Little Flame Monkey.

The duck-billed fire dragon itself has extremely high flame power, and it doesn't need to be like the little flame monkey at all, and it needs a limit state to burst out all its power.

Now Shinji wants to hold the power of Pokémon in his hands even more.

call...!

While closing his eyes to rest his mind, an unknown gust of wind suddenly blew over the entire stone labyrinth, sweeping away a lot of grass, leaves and gravel.

"coming!"

But this gust of wind also made Shinji shiver, and opened his eyes suddenly.

"Wu~!!" "Wu~!!" "Wu~!!"

But in the sky, more than ten pink-brown scorpions appeared at the same time, spreading the gliding wings beside their shoulders, just riding the wind.

Shinji's target is naturally not these Scorpio...

It's one of the "large" Scorpios.

This is a huge gray-purple scorpion, with strong double pincers and a slender barbed tail.

Bright yellow eyes, pointed and slender red ears, and a row of fangs on the open mouth.

Originally in the Scorpio stage, the gliding wings that were only attached to the arms and waist were completely connected into one piece, covering the entire back of the body.

"Scorpio King, finally came out!"

Shinji's eyes fixed, and his heart was burning hot.

This abandoned stone labyrinth is inhabited by a large number of scorpions, as well as the leader of the scorpion king.

The intricate stone roads, coupled with the obstacles surrounded by mountains... made this group of Scorpios trapped here for a while, making it difficult to leave.

Hoo hoo hoo...!

The strong wind was still blowing, and the group of Scorpios tried to use the natural updraft to leave this place.

Due to the special terrain, this maze will blow strange and strong air currents at a fixed time.

Seeing that the leader of the Scorpio King was concentrating on riding the surrounding wind and waves, not paying attention to himself at all, Shinji immediately attacked in a low voice:

"It's now, duck-billed fire dragon, use big characters to explode..."

After the words fell, Xiaozhi's voice suddenly came from the entrance of the maze.

"Hey, isn't this Shinji? By the way, have you seen Xiaogang and Xiaoguang...?"

Xiaozhi came out of the surrounding tunnels, stood on a low-lying ramp, and couldn't help asking loudly.

In order to take a shortcut and reach Veil City as soon as possible, the three of them deliberately walked through the mountain tunnel in the middle.

As a result, a group of wild rumbling rocks and rumbling rocks suddenly rolled past, and the three of them were completely scattered in every corner of the cave.

This also caused Shinji's attack to be completely interrupted, and he subconsciously turned his head.

"I don't know... don't bother me!"

Shinji replied coldly, and then looked in the direction of Scorpio King again.

"Ge Yong...!!"

It's just that this burst of natural airflow has gradually dissipated. Seeing that this time he couldn't leave here by the wind, the leader Scorpion King waved his tongs and commanded all the Scorpios in the rear to sneak back into the maze below, waiting for the next attempt.

Although the Scorpion King and Scorpio are both Pokémon that can fly.

But this kind of Pokémon usually relies on ultrasonic waves to judge its orientation and flight...

The terrain surrounded by mountains completely destroyed their ultrasonic perception, and they couldn't fly out by themselves.

Wild Pokémon have their own paranoia. They can clearly see the direction of departure with their eyes, but they have to choose to use ultrasound.

Just like Gulardo a few months ago, relying on physical instinct, it is enough to perceive the direction of Fangyuan Continent...but still chooses to follow the sensing direction of the vermilion orb without thinking.

...

"hateful...!"

Seeing that all the targets had fallen and merged with the surrounding terrain, Shinji's expression darkened.

Just about to scold Xiaozhi for disturbing his good business, when he turned his head, he found that Xiaozhi had disappeared.

"This guy...!"

Shinji cursed in a low voice, but quickly restrained his mind, closed his eyes again, stood at the highest point with his chest folded, and quietly waited for the airflow to rise again.

He has been in this stone labyrinth for two days, and he can finally figure out the law of air flow.

He is determined to win this Scorpio King!

As for Xiaozhi's side, seeing that Shinji seemed very angry, he ran away without realizing it.

"Strange, how come the power of waveguide didn't even respond...?"

Separated from his partner, Xiaozhi naturally tried to use the power of waveguide to explore the surroundings immediately.

Buzz buzz...!

But every time his waveguide power has just extended more than a dozen meters, he can hear a high-frequency vibration, directly disrupting the waveguide power he released.

Even more than one, there are dozens of chaotic ultrasonic waves, bouncing back and forth in this rather closed valley area.

"Is this an ultrasound...?"

Xiaozhi muttered secretly.

Ultrasonic waves are inaudible to normal human ears, and can only be felt when he uses the power of the waveguide.

It's just this tunnel mountain, why are there so many messy ultrasound waves?

"Pickup...?"

Pikachu, who was lying on Xiaozhi's shoulder, shook his head.

The ultrasonic waves used by the Scorpios to explore the terrain are naturally different from the ultrasonic waves used in battle. Even as a Pokémon, they will not feel any abnormalities.

At most, I feel my ears are a little itchy.

Walking out of the cave tunnel on the edge, Xiaozhi officially entered the maze of stone paths in this valley.

There are intricate bifurcated roads in front of and behind, and it is completely impossible to judge which side is the exit.

"It's up to you, Mukle!!"

Xiaozhi sent out his own Muke bird backhand.
