Chapter 122: I, Ibrahimovic, will inherit the gift of the sacred tree!
Xia Chen told Ma Xiu this discovery that made him feel inexplicably uneasy, but the aromatherapy girl felt that he was unfounded.
Ma Xiu cut a piece of fabric and said without raising her head: "Don't worry, this is the normal physiological activity of the sacred tree. I have lived in this city for nearly ten years, and it is like this every year during the sacred tree festival, but this year it may
A little stronger, don’t worry, this aura is only good for the elves, not bad.”
It was okay if Ma Xiu didn't say it. As soon as Xia Chen said the words "no harm", Xia Chen immediately thought of the task entrusted to him by Dr. Bratano——
Investigate the energy that invades the bodies of the elves after the elf aura erupts.
As for the unusually lively aura of the sacred tree in Aromatherapy City, Xia Chen always felt that it was related to Xerneas.
It is very simple to verify this, just catch a few wild elves near the sacred tree and transport them to the Bratano Research Institute, and the doctor will know after a test.
The next day, after saying hello to Ma Xiu, Xia Chen chose the three common elves living on the sacred tree, Pink Butterfly, Rocket Sparrow and Hua Beibei, to be sent to the research institute.
The next step is to wait for the doctor's reply.
…
In the courtyard of the Aromatherapy Gym, Xia Chen looked at the towering sacred tree overhead that blocked the sky and the sun, and was lost in thought.
From the first moment he saw this towering ancient tree, Xia Chen had been thinking about its origin.
Because the growth of this tree really goes against the common sense of biology.
Xia Chen also saw ancient trees nearly 100 meters high when traveling in his previous life. Some ancient fir trees can grow to such a height.
But those trees are basically as thin and tall as bamboo poles, and they are not likely to be so leafy and leafy. The shade of the trees can even cover several square kilometers.
This requires too much nutrients from the ground beneath our feet.
In addition to elves, other people in the elf world respect natural science, so Xia Chen felt that this sacred tree was definitely closely related to a certain legendary elf.
Having concluded this, the name of the legendary elf is ready to be revealed——
The legendary elf who can share eternal life, Xerneas.
Xia Chen, who traveled from another world, has one more piece of information than the natives, that is, Xerneas wakes up regularly.
Legend has it that Xerneas will wake up after sleeping in the form of a tree for a thousand years.
Of course, a thousand years is just an imaginary number. Elves have existed in this world since ancient times. According to the historical records of the Kalos region a thousand years ago, there are no abnormal phenomena.
However, at that time 1,700 years ago, there was a gap in the history of the Kalos region...
The Aromatherapy City, built with the Sacred Tree as its core, began to appear two hundred years after that historical fault.
Xia Chen absolutely didn't believe that there was no connection between them.
Xia Chen had a bold guess that the appearance of this sacred tree was related to Xerneas's awakening or slumber.
And if Xerneas's sleep and awakening activities are cyclical, then this one cannot be the only sacred tree that appears in the Kalos region.
But in fact there is only one.
Hiss...it's scary to think about it.
However, all of this is just wishful thinking. Apart from far-fetched conjectures, there is not even a single key piece of evidence.
But if the doctor can test that the active energy in the elves he sent has the same source as Xerneas... there may be some explanation.
…
Unfortunately, Xia Chen did not wait for Dr. Bratano's exact reply.
"This energy analyzer is a first-generation product developed by the Fradali Research Institute. It is still under testing. The inspection cycle is a bit long. It will take about five days. I will inform you then."
Dr. Buratano said this on the holographic image communicator.
Xia Chen turned off the call quite speechlessly. Five days...the Shenmu Festival has ended long ago.
Although he was not sure what would happen during this period, if it would happen, it would definitely be most likely during the Shenmu Festival.
Since the doctor didn't have a definite reply, Xia Chen could only let go of his suspicions.
Fortunately, the source of this tree is not Yveltal, so even if something goes wrong, it shouldn't be destructive. Otherwise, Xia Chen would definitely run away overnight.
…………
Although it is very close to Miare City, the pace of life in Aroma City is much slower than that of that bustling metropolis.
Even the tallest building here is not half as tall as the sacred tree. It looks like a leisure and retirement city.
As the Shenmu Festival approaches, Xia Chen can clearly see that the floating population in Xiangxuan City is slowly increasing while riding on the road.
They all have one conspicuous common feature, that is, they are usually accompanied by elves who can only evolve.
Undoubtedly, these are trainers who come from various places in Kalos to participate in the "Gift of Evolution", and there are even tourists from other regions like Xia Chen.
It's not that evolution can't happen in other places, but the evolution blessed by the sacred tree sounds a little special, and some people like this kind of ritualistic thing.
On January 13th, the Shenmu Festival, a special festival in Xiangxuan City, finally arrived.
In the early morning, tens of thousands of people and elves, under the command of local alliance personnel and Miss Junsha, poured into the area covered by the shade of the sacred tree, waiting for the first divine leaf to fall.
Xia Chen was woken up by the loud noise. He rubbed his head in confusion before he realized that the Shenmu Festival had begun today.
I glanced at my phone subconsciously, "Hey guys, it's only five o'clock in the morning, why don't you wait here to watch the flag raising?"
Unable to fall asleep, Xia Chen muttered and climbed out of bed, looking for traces of Ibrahimovic and Lalulas.
He, who had excellent sleep quality, was woken up, not to mention the two little ones who are sensitive to the environment.
After turning on the light and looking around, Xia Chen finally found their figures on the balcony. Ibrahimovic and Lalulas were lying there, not knowing what they were looking at outside.
Xia Chen walked over curiously and was shocked by the spectacular sight in front of him.
The moon sets and the stars are sparse. At the darkest dawn, the weak starlight shines through the gaps in the leaves and can vaguely illuminate the huge trunk of the sacred tree, which is as thick as a city wall.
This chapter is not finished yet, please click on the next page to continue reading the exciting content! Under the sacred tree, dense crowds of people and elves gathered together to look up, eagerly waiting for the arrival of a certain moment, like some ancient
Devout believers in mysterious rituals.
Of course, there's nothing wrong with saying it's like Dead Rising...
Xia Chen couldn't help but take out his mobile phone and record this shocking scene that is rarely seen in modern society.
…………
Xia Chen was watching the excitement in wonder when there was a knock on the door.
Opening the door, the person who came was indeed Miss Ma Xiu, who was all dressed up.
She is still wearing the gorgeous dress that is said to be worth five thousand gold beads, like the saint of the "Sacred Tree Sect" believed by the believers below.
The Holy Lady warmly invited her, "With such a grand occasion, why don't Mr. Xia Chen go down and experience it for yourself?"
Xia Chen shook his head, "I suddenly feel that the role of observer is more suitable for me. Let's try it again in two days. Anyway, the Shenmu Festival is not just today."
Ma Xiu was a little envious, "Sure enough, I am the future Xianyu Gym Leader who can do whatever he wants. It's a pity that I can't help myself."
As the gym leader and one of Aroma City's business cards, she must attend such important events.
However, Xia Chen was curious about what Ma Xiu was going to do. Was she going to maintain order with Miss Junsha and the others?
Ma Xiu shrugged and replied: "What else can I do? It's just an exhibition match with a certain guest. It happens every year and they don't get tired of it."
Xia Chen's heart moved, and a flash of light flashed through his mind.
Speaking of which, after the beautiful energy cube was developed, in addition to being used for the evolution of Menas, another more important purpose was still idle there.
The girl in front of me combines strength, fame, and love for elves.
What's more, the fairy type is the most suitable attribute for gorgeous battles. Why not fool... No, why not point out a clear path for the lost girl?
He suddenly said: "Miss Ma Xiu, have you ever thought that...in addition to fighting, the charm of elves can also be displayed in another way?"
Ma Xiu raised her eyebrows and asked curiously: "For example?"
Xia Chen smiled mysteriously and invited her into the room.
…………
After sending Ma Xiu away, Xia Chen returned to the balcony.
If you can't sleep, why not wait for the "gift of evolution" to arrive with the people below.
Ma Xiu told Xia Chen a few days ago that the sacred tree has a spirit, and its leaves fall and grow in a very regular pattern. They fall and fall at sunrise and stop at sunset, and they will never be late or leave early.
At the end of the three days, after all the fallen leaves have fallen, new life will grow on the bare branches overnight.
Sitting on the balcony, Xia Chen and the three elves quietly waited for the sun to rise.
I don’t know how long it took, but finally a touch of fish belly white appeared on the horizon.
Some sharp-eyed people in the crowd saw this glimmer of light and exclaimed, "It's dawn."
Then, cheers rang out one after another, and then became a wave of sound.
As if awakened by the noise of these people, the light on the horizon became more and more conspicuous. Although it was still far from the point where the light could shine on the earth, everyone knew what it meant.
It's dawn and the ceremony of evolution has begun.
When the first ray of morning light appears, it is also when the first leaf falls.
The sound of rustling leaves could be heard in the sky. Xia Chen, who was sitting under the balcony, looked up and saw the faint morning light filtering through the gaps between the leaves. The leaves were floating in the air, rushing unhurriedly towards their destined destination.
destination.
Xia Chen suddenly felt that this observation angle was a bit poor. It would be great if he could fly in the air and have a bird's eye view...
It's a pity that none of my elves can fly.
Speaking of which, how about cultivating an elf that can take you flying in the sky?
It's a pity no matter how you think about it when you come to the elf world but can't fly in the blue sky.
Or it would be a good idea to catch one to use as a means of transportation during your trip to the Kalos region.
I'll ask Ma Xiu in a few days if there are any suitable wild elves near here.
Although Xia Chen looked at the falling leaves in the sky, his thoughts had drifted to an unknown place.
When Ibrahimovic looked at the scene in front of him, he was unconsciously in a daze.
…
From the past few days, Ibrahimovic felt that she had some impression of this city, but she was very sure that she had never been here in the ten years of her previous life.
So, most likely, in what news did you hear about this city?
Ibrahimovic thinks this should be the case. After all, this sacred tree is also a relatively well-known attraction in the Carlos area.
And if it was, it probably wouldn't be a vicious incident, otherwise I wouldn't have even the slightest sense of vigilance in my heart.
But now, looking at the dancing leaves in the sky, the memory sleeping in Ibrahimovic's mind seems to be slowly awakening.
She remembered what news she had read about Aromatherapy City and this sacred tree.
The title of that news article is——
[Elegy to the Aromatherapy Sacred Tree, Review of the Last Sacred Tree Festival!]
In other words, this sacred tree is coming to an end!
Ibrahimovic forgot whether the date of this news was this year.
Anyway, it was either this year or next year, because she clearly remembered that she had not yet evolved at that time.
This is why Ibrahimovic didn't recall this important message until he saw the scene of the Gift of Evolution.
Once the dusty memory box was opened, more and more information poured into Ibrahimovic's mind.
…
After all the leaves fell for the last time, no new leaves grew on the branches of the sacred tree, and the sacred tree no longer exuded that lively atmosphere.
The specific cause of this phenomenon was not given an exact explanation in the news.
But Ibrahimovic remembered that it was mentioned in the news that on the last day of the Sacred Tree Festival, someone saw a strange branch emitting colorful light at the root of the tree, but the Aromatherapy citizen did not take a closer look out of reverence for the sacred tree.
.
When everyone discovered the next morning that the sacred tree had never sprouted new buds, the strange branch had long since disappeared.
The reason why Ibrahimovic had an influence on this detail is because Xia Chen sighed when reading the news at the time, "Why does it sound a bit like Xerneas's horn?"
No one knows what color Xerneas's horn is. The legend of the God of Life has been circulating in the Kalos region since ancient times, but few people have seen it.
Even when he woke up recently, witnesses only said they saw a huge, inviolable figure with long antlers like a deer, and then he was knocked unconscious by the burst of aura.
Ibrahimovic knew that his trainer had a unique source of information and would always know something that no one else knew.
So when she recalled the incident of the sacred tree withering, this detail naturally appeared in her mind.
So, maybe this is an opportunity?
Ibrahimovic's heart gradually became active.
This is something related to the legendary elves... Even if it is possible, Ibrahimovic doesn't want to miss it.
…
You should know that the only such item that has ever appeared at auction is an unmelting piece of ice that is about the size of a piece of chocolate and comes from Regice.
This item was bought by Kona, the Ice King of the Kanto region, for a sky-high price of 150 million.
In addition to sighing that Kona is really rich, what everyone is talking about is the rarity of legendary elf items.
According to the color classification method in the game, ordinary evolution stones, attribute gems and the like are pure blue sky and white clouds.
Further up, mysterious water droplets, dragon's teeth and the like can be rated as high-level rare purple cards.
Props related to legendary elves, such as the unmelting ice from Regice, are undoubtedly legendary-quality orange cards.
But if there are golden legends, then this strange branch that may be related to Xerneas can definitely be counted as one of them.
Of course, if it is.
What's Regice's status?
It's just a creation of Regichicas.
And what kind of status is Xerneas?
The god of life who controls the nature of the Kalos region!
More importantly, Xerneas is also the legendary elf who caused the elf aura to burst out.
Both myself and little La Lulas will benefit greatly from this.
Ibrahimovic gradually came back to his senses and narrowed his eyes slightly as he looked at the people below who were cheering for the evolution of the elves.
She didn't plan to tell anyone the news, even if Ma Xiu could understand her.
Whether it is himself, Xia Chen, or Ma Xiu, with human capabilities, the withering of the sacred tree is irreversible.
When a whale falls, all things come into being.
Since there is always someone who wants to inherit the final gift of the sacred tree, why can't it be me?
