Pokémon: The Journey of Bonds

Chapter 144 Desert Ancient City

After resting for a night, everyone was planning to set off again. However, just as everyone was about to pack up, the sandstorm appeared again. Everyone had to hide behind Snorlax again. The sandstorm blew for a full hour and showed no sign of weakening.

"This is not a solution. Keep dodging will only slow down our progress."

"If only there was something to stop the sandstorm, we could continue on our way."

"I've got it!" Wu Yao took out the gas mask he had taken out before. Han Ye said that her family didn't need this thing so she gave it to Wu Yao directly. At that time, everyone else said that they didn't need this mask anymore, so they also gave their masks to Wu Yao for safekeeping.

"You...the items you carry with you are really strange." Song Yu couldn't help but complain.

"Don't worry about whether it's strange or not, just put on your gas mask and hurry on."

Everyone also put on masks. Hu Bufan took back Snorlax and started on their journey. After walking for a while, everyone discovered a problem.

"Are we...really heading north?"

"I don't know. The sandstorm is covering the sky and blocking the sun. I can't tell the direction..."

"Rotom, is there still a signal?"

"Still nothing, even the compass on the machine is broken, Loto!"

"The compass on the machine is also broken? Is there a special magnetic field interference nearby?"

"Magnetic field interference? I have a solution! Come out, Kokodora! You have the Steel Element and can sense the nearest source of interference. Once we eliminate the source of interference, we can determine the direction."

Kokodora sniffed in the sandstorm, then immediately ran in one direction, completely unaffected by the sandstorm.

Soon he found a city wall. It seemed that it had been abandoned for a long time. The wall was damaged, the gate was broken, and the doorplate had long been carbonized and fell to the ground. It was impossible to tell where this city was.

After everyone kicked the door open, they found countless small houses inside. In the distance, there were more huge stone buildings that looked like they were where ancient dignitaries lived. There was also a huge building on the highest mountain. It looked very luxurious and should be the royal city.

Kokodora pointed to the royal city over there.

"You mean the place where the magnetic field that affects the cell phone and compass is located is the Royal City?"

Kokodora nodded.

"Let's take a rest and wait until the sandstorm stops before we go. Let's just find a house to stay for the night."

When everyone found a room and prepared to rest, Hu Bufan suddenly shouted.

"What's wrong? What happened?" Everyone hurried to Hu Bufan.

"There are...there are...there are corpses..." Hu Bufan pointed at the human-shaped things lying on the beds with trembling hands.

Song Yu went forward to take a look, and after moving around a bit, he said, "This is a very rare mummy. The moisture of a human corpse evaporated quickly under dry conditions, and a dried mummy was formed under hot and ventilated conditions. This is really an eye-opener for me!"

Ai Li also went up to touch it and said: "The skin has no elasticity, the muscles have been dried by the wind, and the clothes on the body have been carbonized. This naturally formed mummy is really rare in a century. You can also touch it."

Wu Yao and Sun Qing didn't touch it because they thought it was dirty.

"Aren't you afraid that this mummy will curse...curse you?"

"I'm not afraid of the mummy's curse, such unscientific things."

"I'm not afraid either."

"According to analysis, the so-called mummy's curse is an ancient virus caused by the lack of ventilation in the pyramid at the time. It was rumored to be a curse. Now various Pokémon that can heal can easily solve this ancient virus, Loto."

"Anyway, I don't want to sleep with this corpse!"

"Okay, okay, go to another room and sleep there. If you see the mummy again, don't bother us."

When Hu Bufan was packing up, suddenly, the mummy's head moved, which scared him again.

"Mu, mu, the mummy is alive!"

His shout scared everyone who had just walked out.

"You must have seen it wrong. The mummy was originally sitting in that position!"

"It, it, it really moved!"

"Don't be so startled. Hurry up and pack your things and go to another room. If you don't want to see the mummy, don't shout. You're disturbing our rest."

Hu Bufan had no choice but to pack up his things and leave quickly under the gaze of the mummy.

Then a transparent guy came out of the mummy's body and ran into another house where Hu Bufan lived. However, he didn't find anyone when he passed through the wall, so he ran out to find his teammates first. At this time, Hu Bufan ran out of the closet. He was forced to lie with a skull. Especially since he was very fat, he squeezed into the closet and crushed the skull.

"I was so scared, luckily the ghost of the mummy has run away..."

"Snorlax, come out and help me keep watch!"

Snorlax directly blocked the door with its huge body. Then Hu Bufan put a bunch of general energy blocks for Snorlax, and Snorlax happily ate them. At this moment, Hu Bufan received a message on his mobile phone. After seeing the message, Hu Bufan spread a mat on the ground and pretended to sleep. After Wu Yao sent a signal, he went out again.

In the middle of the night, Gastly came out with his two brothers, Haunter and Gengar.

"Hehehe, those humans would never have thought that we were lying in ambush in this dead city. Our boss is preparing for a ghostly carnival, so we came here to grab some human souls to eat!"

"I sense many powerful auras here. Don't stay too long. Leave quickly after harvesting the souls of these humans. Don't alarm the lord here!"

"It's fine!"

Gastly and Haunter began to sneak into Hu Bufan's room. When Gengar was stretching his muscles to prepare to kill someone, suddenly, the wailing sounds of Gastly and Haunter were heard from the room.

Gengar was furious: "What's going on? Why did he go crazy after eating two humans?"

After Gengar went in, he saw Wu Yao and the others were all gathered together. They were tied up and captured by Sylveon's ribbon. As soon as the two ghosts came in, Frog used a shadow attack to knock them down. They were tied up before they even had time to react. Wu Yao released evil energy to control Gengar, who was still in a daze and hadn't reacted.

"Tell me! What are you Pokémon doing here? I spotted you guys during the day, but I haven't moved in order to lure all of you out!"

Hu Bufan also took out his cell phone and showed it to Geng Gui and the others, letting them know that the previous quarrel was to lure the snake out of its hole and apologize.
