Chapter 260 - Chapter 260: The Pillar of the Earth

"Great job!"

After shaking off the lingering effects of Charm, Lin Feng was the first to praise Alcremie for using Metronome.

Then he looked at her seriously and said gently, "Good girl, do not be afraid. That power belongs to you."

At this point, Lin Feng finally understood.

Alcremie's luck was even more terrifying than he had imagined.

Her Metronome did not seem to be completely random. It was likely influenced by her emotional state.

When she had no clear thoughts, the moves were unpredictable, like the blue flames the first time, or the blinding light the second time.

But once she had a clear intention, everything changed.

When Victini scared her and she wanted to run, she used Shadow Sneak.

Even though it was Giratina's exclusive move and extremely powerful, it was still perfect for escaping.

When she wanted to defeat her opponent, she used Thunder and Precipice Blades.

When she was testing with him, she used Water Gun on Dragonite, Ember on Blaziken, Attract on Gardevoir, and Charm on him.

Lin Feng was shocked, but he did not feel it was unreasonable.

Because in the Pokémon world, there was an Ability called Serene Grace.

That alone proved that something as intangible as "luck" truly existed here.

"This feels almost too ideal…"

Of course, Lin Feng was not foolish enough to conclude everything from a single test.

This was only a rough observation.

Still, it was something he could pay closer attention to in the future.

If he had the chance, he should bring more types of Pokémon to test in front of her.

With that thought, Lin Feng calmed himself.

Then a new problem appeared.

The Precipice Blades pillar had not disappeared.

The stone pillar still stood tall, molten liquid slowly dripping from its surface.

Although each drop only burned a small pit into the ground, it clearly could not be ignored.

"Is it because this is a legendary Pokémon's exclusive move?"

Lin Feng murmured as he stared at the unmoving pillar.

Normally, rock-based moves created by ordinary Pokémon would slowly dissipate over time.

Only extremely powerful Pokémon could create permanent matter, and even that was rare.

It was like Diancie.

She could create two kinds of diamonds, temporary ones and permanent ones.

Lin Feng hesitated.

This was the Earth God's move. Groudon's exclusive technique.

If he kept it, could it help Fire-type or Ground-type Pokémon in the future?

After thinking for a long time, Lin Feng finally decided to keep the pillar.

But he had to make it safe.

"Dragonite, Blaziken, help me dig a trench around this pillar."

With molten sparks constantly falling, it could not be left as it was.

If something went wrong, he would be responsible.

"Blaziken!"

"Dragonite!"

With the combined effort of both Pokémon, a trench about two meters wide was quickly dug around the pillar.

Even so, Lin Feng still did not feel at ease.

He planned to assign several Pidgeot to take turns standing guard.

That would make it much safer.

Speaking of Pidgeot, almost all the Pidgey at home had already evolved.

Only three were left.

The incomplete Silver Wing he had obtained from Lugia should be usable soon.

At that moment, Lin Feng held Alcremie in his arms and looked at Dragonite and Blaziken, who were staring at him with eager eyes.

He smiled and waved his hand.

"Alright, let's go home and eat dinner."

"Blaziken!"

"Dragonite!"

They were clearly very happy.

And at that very moment…

Deep in the ocean.

Inside a pitch-black undersea cavern, a pair of red eyes slowly opened.

In an instant, every Pokémon in the surrounding seabed felt an overwhelming pressure and fled in panic.

Even Sharpedo, the long-time ruler of these waters, stared nervously toward the depths of the cave.

In the darkness, those red eyes alone were almost larger than its entire body.

Sharpedo did not dare hesitate.

It immediately abandoned the territory it had loved for so long and fled.

Kyogre, newly awakened from its slumber, gazed toward the eastern region.

It was confused.

"The power of the land… such weak land energy. Who borrowed his power?"

Kyogre did not dwell on it for long.

After confirming that its old rival was not trying to seize natural energy, it slowly fell back into sleep.

November 8th.

Not long after breakfast.

One of the remaining three Pidgey finally evolved into Pidgeot.

After watching the entire process, Lin Feng looked up at the newly evolved Pidgeot as it flew to perch on a pine tree outside.

He fell into thought.

The pine tree was tall and sturdy.

Of the original twenty Pidgey, eighteen had already evolved. With their leader, that made nineteen Pidgeot in total.

Each was over a meter tall, with wingspans of three to four meters.

The pine tree could not possibly hold all of them.

Even with some Pidgeot flying out during the day to deliver food or accept challenges, it was still crowded.

At lunchtime, they lined up in the garden, forming a row over twenty meters long.

At a glance, it was nothing but imposing giant birds.

Then there was the Sky Challenge.

The difficulty had not changed much, but the feeling was completely different.

Before, they were Pidgey. The challenge was hard, but still manageable.

Now…

Watching Pidgeot fly was honestly intimidating.

Even so, Lin Feng had no intention of changing it.

A challenge was meant to be difficult.

Once all the Pidgey evolved and he fed them the Silver Wing dish, it would be time to start regional delivery services.

Just as he was thinking, Rotom suddenly flew over from the nursery.

"Bzzz! There is a visitor!"

"A visitor?"

Lin Feng was startled. "Who is it?"

"Rotom does not know…"

An awkward expression appeared on Rotom's screen.

"But he says he came to see the Miltank."

"To see the Miltank… That should be Uncle Murray."

Lin Feng murmured to himself. "Is he checking whether the Miltank are eating well?"

Thinking of this, he stood up quickly and followed Rotom toward the nursery.
