I, the Pokémon Master, now resign

"Catch me, or you will be in trouble if you get lost in such a place."

"Um......"

After Bai Chen reminded her, Ma Li didn't hesitate at all, she moved a little closer to Bai Chen's position, then cautiously stretched out her right hand, and gently grabbed the corner of Bai Chen's clothes.

"Mor..."

As if he also felt Bai Chen's call, even Morubek, who is a Pokémon, walked towards Bai Chen's feet. Under such circumstances, Bai Chen's strength seemed to be its greatest guarantee .

I say...

Sensing Molu Beike's actions, Bai Chen couldn't help laughing and crying, so let's forget about Ma Li, shouldn't you protect Ma Li?Why did you start to become so scared?

Bai Chen complained in his heart, but he still didn't say it. The three of them just walked cautiously towards the depths of the second floor.

......

Tick ​​tock ~ tick tock...

The sound of dripping water coming from nowhere echoed in this space with very little visibility. Ma Li and Bai Chen were relatively close, and they could even hear each other's heartbeat clearly.

In such a silent environment, it was Bai Chen who broke the silence first.

"I haven't been to such a place for a long time..."

"A place like this? A cemetery?"

"Ah."

Bai Chen replied silently, but without turning around, he just said as if talking to himself:

"People can't escape life, old age, sickness and death, and most Pokémon are the same... They are normal in the world, and the tombstones erected here all bear the same story in mind."

"..."

Ma Li didn't take Bai Chen's words, but kept silent alone.

To be honest, after stepping into the second floor, her heart remained heavy because of the tombstones hidden under the mist.

Just as Bai Chen said, these tombstones depict stories with the same ending one after another——

Death and burial.

Before coming here, Ma Li had never thought about death at all. The plain and warm daily life and ambitious goals left her no time to calm down and think about the story that must be experienced in this life.

Different Pokémon have different lifespans, and humans, or simply referred to as trainers here, have different lifespans than Pokmon.

But at least, the Pokmon that can be buried by the trainer, their lifespan is at least exhausted before the trainer, so there will be buildings like the Lost Tower, specially built for Pokmon .

Teacher Bai Chen, has any Pokémon passed away?

Seeing Bai Chen's expression full of nostalgia, Ma Li couldn't help but have such a guess in her heart, but generally speaking, such a situation is impossible to happen, although most Pokémon's lifespan is shorter than that of Pokémon. Human beings are shorter, but at Bai Chen's age, under normal circumstances, he wouldn't have such an experience, would he?

unless......

Perhaps because she felt that it was impolite to continue thinking like this, Ma Li shook her head and gave up such unreasonable speculations, but up to now, Bai Chen's past has become more and more attractive to Ma Li.

In the mist, the two of them walked forward bit by bit in the middle of the cemetery with their own thoughts in mind.

In a dim environment, an erratic ghost quietly drifted past after Ma Li and Bai Chen left. This is the incarnation of the Ecstasy Eye, which can help it detect the situation in the Lost Tower. Just now, the performance of Bai Chen and the three of them was also fascinated. The sight is in the eyes, but it is their performance that makes the soul-hunting eye feel very strange.

At first, in its judgment, the stronger one between the two should be the girl walking behind, after all, the existence hidden in her shadow even felt the heart palpitations for a while.

But......

why?Why does she still act fearful with such backing?Is it really an instinctive human reaction?

Such doubts are constantly expanding in Hookhunyan's mind, but it still doesn't intend to change its goal.

After walking through the cemetery on this floor and coming to the continuous spiral staircase leading to the third floor on the second floor, it is not far from the top of the tower, and at that time, it can finally start to move.

......

183 The Lost Tower, the Lost Two

The first floor in the Lost Tower is the hall, which can be regarded as a transition and buffer area, which is not uncommon in various tower cemeteries built for Pokémon.

And starting from the cemetery on the second floor, the structure of the entire Lost Tower has been almost analyzed by Bai Chen.

The stairs from the first floor to the second floor are completely separated from the rest of the stairs, and except for the buffer area of ​​the first floor, the decoration of the remaining floors of the Lost Tower is completely the same.

Each floor is divided into several areas, and the tombstones of Pokémon are placed in different areas one after another. The order is roughly sorted according to the fifty syllables of the trainer's name. After all, it is named after a special title. There are not many people in the baby.

In addition to each floor, the difference between the first ladder and the ladder in the cemetery seems to be to remind the trainers who come here that they and the Pokmon buried here are in two different worlds.

"If you look at it from here, it's really a little scary."

Standing on the spiral staircase leading to the highest floor, Bai Chen looked down. After seeing the scene surrounded by mist, even Bai Chen couldn't help expressing such emotion.

There are obviously tombstones all over the ground below, but under the cover of the fog, they can't see anything clearly. The thicker and thicker fog makes Bai Chen and Ma Li blind except for the scene a few meters in front of them.

"And from just now, I feel that even my hearing is a bit problematic... Is it the wind or the whimper that comes from time to time? Mary, you... eh? Mary?"

Originally, he wanted to appease Ma Li before stepping into the top floor, but when Bai Chen just turned his head, he found that Ma Li, who was supposed to be following him, disappeared at some point?

Not so much...

There were bursts of cold sweat on Bai Chen's forehead, and he didn't even feel a little bit when Ma Li disappeared.

You must know that she should have been holding on to the hem of her clothes all the way, but I didn't even notice when she let go of the hem of her clothes, and if I had to say it...

While thinking this way, Bai Chen turned around and looked back at the stairs.

The stairs are spiral, there is only one right path, and the stairs themselves are very narrow, and the same position can only pass an adult and a child. If Mary wants to pass by her side, it is even more impossible for him to pass by. It is what you perceive.

But no matter what Bai Chen thinks, the fact that Mary is missing is obvious, and he has already lost in the secret fight with that Pokémon.

"Really, at this point, I really admire that guy. When did he cast the illusion... Could it be that he passed through these fogs?"

With a wry smile, Bai Chen stretched out his hand to grab the gray mist in front of him, and after seeing it come out of his palm, Bai Chen unconsciously gave a wry smile again.

"Forget it, anyway, I'm well prepared. Although Mary may not be able to break through this level of illusion, it shouldn't be a problem to defeat it."

Bai Chen sighed, thinking so in his heart.

But the question is what should I do?Do you want to go back and find out where Mary disappeared?

But how many floors does this Lost Tower have?On which floor did Mary get lost...?

It seems that my work is far from over...

......

Drag the timeline forward.

On a certain floor of the Lost Tower, Ma Li curled up, clutching the corner of "Bai Chen" tightly, and moved forward slowly as before.

At some point, the gray mist that has been lingering in the Lost Tower has gradually turned into pure black, and there are even a few red lights in the distance.

There should be no place for extra life to inhabit, but at this time there were bursts of hoarse sobs suddenly, as if the whisper from hell was always lingering in Mali's ears, even Molu who had been walking at her feet At this time, Bei Ke also had to jump on Mary's shoulder because of fear, shrinking into a ball.

If it wasn't for the fact that Bai Chen, who was walking ahead, didn't even have any fear or unexpected reaction at this moment, Ma Li would have been afraid to move forward.

In such a terrifying environment, apart from Bai Chen who was walking ahead with a constant pace, only the shadow that accompanied Ma Li swayed gently with a certain regularity.

The further you go, the heavier your breathing becomes.

The further you go, the clearer the whimpering becomes.

The further you walk, the more trembling your legs become.

What is causing the fear in my heart?environment?Or is it your own inner instinct?

Just like what Bai Chen said before, in order to maximize their illusions, ghost-type Pokémon will definitely interfere with people's five senses in a specific environment, especially when people feel scared, their illusions will become stronger. easy to succeed.

However, the so-called illusion of ghost-type Pokmon is not the same as the illusion of super-type Pokmon. The former's illusion is to intimidate people with physical entities, while the latter's illusion is to directly hypnotize people and let them see Something that shouldn't exist or can't be seen.

In terms of harm to people after success, the super-type Pokmon is better, but the illusion of the ghost-type Pokmon is a real thing after all. Once it falls into it, it may not be possible to eliminate such effects for a while. .

This is definitely the work of that ghost-type Pokémon, right?

Ma Li, who had tried her best to follow Bai Chen's pace, knew in her heart that although this is a cemetery, it is still a cemetery after all. How could there be so many strange sounds and phenomena?

The current black mist, whimpering and blood light must have come from the hands of ghost-type Pokémon, but, but...

Mary's body began to tremble more and more, cold sweat drenched her whole body, her breathing became weaker, and her brain's thinking speed also dropped significantly.

Teacher Bai Chen, why hasn't he responded?

The drowsy brain began to function again, and Mary began to observe Bai Chen by supporting her almost exhausted body.

Ever since Bai Chen finished speaking those heavy words, in order to prevent Bai Chen's mood from getting worse, Ma Li has not taken the initiative to talk to her. She just walked all the way, but now that she has reached the top of the tower, Bai Chen still has no intention of speaking. .

At this moment, a chill went straight from her back to her brain, making it impossible for Mary to continue walking.

Here, where is it?

Now, Mary finally noticed something.

Although she couldn't remember exactly how much time it took, the time spent walking on the top floor has far exceeded the time spent walking on the second floor, at least this is what she can be sure of.

but--

Lost Tower is a spire design? !

With the design of the spire, why is the area of ​​the top floor larger than that of the bottom? !

"Bai Chen...teacher...?"

An inexplicable sense of fear made Ma Li involuntarily let go of her right hand that was holding on to the corner of Bai Chen's clothes. Ma Li's body had already started to retreat quietly.

Her tone seemed so unfamiliar, even though she called Bai Chen's name, Ma Li seemed to have guessed it...

The "person" walking in front of him is definitely not Bai Chen.

184 The Quest's Vision

"Bai Chen, teacher...?"

Mary felt that her breathing was about to stop, her pale lips were trembling uncontrollably, and she was slowly moving backward step by step.

It was as if Bai Chen didn't hear Ma Li's call, his body didn't move at all, and even the movement of walking forward like a walking corpse stopped with Ma Li's release.

"..."

The atmosphere at the scene fell into a deathly silence.

Mo Lubei could clearly feel Bai Chen's abnormality and Ma Li's caution and fear.

The weird scene made the hairs on Molu Beike's body stand on end. Although he was afraid in his heart, Molu Beike still suppressed the fear in his heart at such a critical moment, standing between Ma Li and Bai Chen, his body surface burst out There were bursts of electric sparks, as if he was cheering for himself.

"Crack...knock..."

Ma Li's actions seemed to break some kind of customary rules, and Bai Chen in front of her finally stopped at this moment, but what followed were bursts of sounds like broken bones.

Accompanied by this strange breaking sound, the surrounding black mist also became more intense.

The blood-red light that bloomed from a distance also became clear at this time. Although it was still only a faint feeling when farsighted, Mali and Moru Beike always felt that the light was getting closer and closer to them. , as if treating them as prey.

"Crack...click..."

The surrounding air was so deadly and dull, and Bai Chen, who was walking in front, finally turned his head.

Only the head turned back.

The body just kept moving forward, Bai Chen's head and body were like two parts of a puppet, they could be dismantled at will, but the next thing was to break Mary's fantasy, bursts of thick blood began It sprayed out from Baichen's neck, staining the ground surrounded by pitch-black thick fog red.

Turning his head, Bai Chen's eyes were so empty, he looked like a person who had been dead for a long time, and Ma Li could not hear the murmur in his mouth clearly, all she could hear was that it seemed to be clogged with blood, Like a cry for help from a dying person.

"Cough...cough..."

Although she knew that Bai Chen in front of her was fake, Ma Li still couldn't restrain her nausea from this scene. Ma Li coughed continuously. If she hadn't been trying her best to suppress this feeling, she might not be able to hold back her feelings by now. Some of her reactions were not coughing, but retching or even vomiting.

"electric shock!"

Mary shook her head, took a few deep breaths to allow herself to speak normally, and then directed Mo Rubeike to prepare to attack.

What is the current environment, and how did the ghost-type Pokmon hiding here get her hooked? It doesn't matter now. The only thing she wants to do now is to quickly break this disgusting illusion in front of her and get out of this world. sea ​​of ​​bitterness.

"Mor!"

Morubek's body leaped high, and a flash of golden light involuntarily attacked the phantom in front of him.

"ku~ku~"

The electric current passed through its body, without any effect, it just dropped waves of ripples on the surface of the phantom, just like a stone falling into the sea, apart from being able to splash a little water, it has no other effect.

"This......."
