After handing the radiance stone to the research institute in Metropolis, Xia Chen sorted out what he had gained after coming to the ultimate world.
The two main goals of coming to the Ultimate World were to find his missing parents and to find a paper sword that could cut the Ultimate Hole.
Already one and a half finished——
The paper sword has been found, but I don’t know if it can cut the ultimate hole like the one in the anime.
Because the research on space jump in Metropolis was still being completed and he couldn't leave for a while, Xia Chen decided to take advantage of this time to have a good chat with Zhi Yujian.
This was already the most powerful paper sword he could find. If it couldn't open the ultimate hole, he would have to wait for Metropolis's space jumping technology to mature.
In addition, the discovery of the Brilliant Stone vein is an unexpected surprise. When the earth and the Ultra World establish a stable connection in the future, or help the Ultra World end the Dark Age, the research and development of Z-movement can be started.
To be honest, according to the performance in the game, the strategic significance of Z-move is definitely not as good as any of the other three combat systems.
Although the Gigantamax is not as good as the Z move on its own, it has three moves to use, and during this period, its vitality is also in a greatly enhanced state, which greatly improves the elf's physical strength.
Unless it is some Z-moves exclusive to elves, such as Eevee's [Nine-Colored Ascension Gathering at the Top] and Staff-Tail Scale Armored Dragon's [Blazing Soul Dance Fierce Sonic Explosion], the Z-moves are basically completely destroyed by the Gigantamax.
Comparing Super Evolution and Tai Jinghua, their sustainability is not comparable to that of Z-moves.
But no matter what, Z-move is also a special system that can greatly enhance the power of single-target moves. It is better than nothing.
Furthermore, obtaining the scientific and technological knowledge of the metropolis is also one of the gains from this trip to the ultimate world, whether it is from the perspective of self-interest or contribution to the development process of the earth's world.
If you think about it carefully, although you have only been in the ultimate world for less than ten days, you have gained a lot.
I just always feel like I've forgotten something...
Xia Chen thought for a while and realized what he had overlooked - looking for Dr. Morn who was also missing in the ultimate world.
He rubbed his brows in distress. Lusamine and Lillie had agreed before coming, but they ignored the matter when they came...
In fact, it's not neglect. It's a coincidence that he found his parents. If Amamo hadn't happened to see them, he would probably be running around like a headless fly now.
The most important thing is that the parents were lucky enough to be parasitized by two Xuwuids. If not, they would have died in the desolate ultimate world.
Could Dr. Mohn also have such good luck?
Xia Chen doesn't know.
However, Xia Chen has a clear conscience regarding this matter.
The ultimate world is so big that even if Gullton were to fly with him at full speed, he would not be able to visit it all in a short time, let alone find a person whose life or death is unknown.
Forget it, if you have time, try your luck here and there before leaving.
Xia Chen finally made this decision.
…………
Of course I'm not free now.
For Xia Chen, the most important thing at the moment is to let the paper sword be able to open the ultimate hole.
The metropolis was too densely populated and it was impossible to use any force inside, so Xia Chen ran outside with the paper sword after finishing his meal.
Suddenly returning to darkness from a place shrouded in light, Zhi Yujian was still a little unaccustomed to it.
Xia Chen took this opportunity to pour him some more chicken soup that "brings light back to the entire ultimate world". Although Zhi Yujian didn't say anything, the sword began to shake unconsciously.
But after Zhi Yujian got used to the dark environment, a new problem appeared again——
The sword that can split the ultimate space...Xia Chen doesn't know how to teach it.
To be honest, he only knew that this kind of operation existed, and he also confirmed from Vulcan Moth that some paper swords could do it, but it was a bit difficult for him to realize it...
Although there were some cool moves in the animation where Xiaozhi taught Mumuxiao how to learn the seed machine gun, and taught Hackron how to learn Dragon Dance, but that was Xiaozhi!
Xia Chen, who believed that he did not have the ability to become a true new towner, could only find other ways.
By the way, Vulcan Moth!
Xia Chen suddenly thought of his elf, who seemed to know the ultimate world very well. It was also the one who came up with the idea of finding the paper sword. Maybe it could do something about it?
Throwing out the Vulcan Moth's Poké Ball, the big flaming moth tilted its head in confusion.
Xia Chen asked directly: "Didn't you say that there was a paper sword that could cut the ultimate hole? Can you see if it can be done?"
Vulcan Moth looked in the direction pointed by Xia Chen, and saw a paper sword as sharp as a famous sword floating proudly in the air.
Just by sensing the aura, the Vulcan Moth found that it was stronger than him.
After thinking for a while, the big-headed moth replied: "Kona - (Hmm...wait a moment, let me ask...let me take a look.)"
The Vulcan Moth, who almost spilled the beans, had a sinister thought, and then crazily thought about his teacher, [Light] in his heart.
"Teacher, save me!"
After a while, the response came, "I heard it, why are you anxious? Come closer and let me feel it."
The Vulcan Moth obediently complied, but as soon as he got closer, Zhi Yujian subconsciously adjusted his body posture to the sword-drawing position, and the metal sword made a buzzing sound.
Wild elves generally have a safe distance. If they enter without permission, they will be alert at best, or directly attacked at worst.
Zhi Yujian is considered to be a more vigilant type. If it hadn't cooperated with Xia Chen, it would have attacked the Vulcan Moth right now.
The Vulcan Moth did not accept this threat. It narrowed its eyes and said, "Kona? (You want to fight?)"
Zhi Yujian also has a bad temper. Although he is now not affected by the erosion of the black fog and no longer has that manic depression, he still pursues the mentality of "fight if you want".
In its view, the Vulcan Moth was provocative first. If it took a step back in this situation, it would not be able to hold its head high in front of Xia Chen, its "partner".
Although Zhi Yujian didn't understand the principle of killing a chicken to scare the monkeys, he still had the idea that "this battle must be fought".
This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading!…………
The atmosphere in the air became increasingly tense, but Xia Chen, who was watching from the sidelines, never spoke.
He didn't want to stop what seemed like an inexplicable fight that had begun.
Blocking is worse than opening up. Even if Zhi Yujian may not necessarily join the team in the future, the time spent with himself and the elves will definitely not be short. It is better to resolve the conflicts that have arisen through fighting now than to keep the emotions piled up in his heart.
It doesn't matter even if Vulcan Moth loses, so pulling out Luton, Deoxys, and Zeraora is enough to suppress the Paper Mitsurugi.
He could also see the strength of Zhi Yujian through this battle.
Although Vulcan Moth was in a stalemate with Zhi Yujian, he was also secretly observing Xia Chen's reaction.
When it saw that its trainer did not make a statement, it understood his attitude.
Then fight!
Although he knew that Zhi Yujian was stronger than him, Vulcan Moth was not timid at all.
Since entering the ultimate world and absorbing the energy of the original projection, the strength of the Vulcan Moth has skyrocketed.
It's just that except for that wave of alien beasts, there was no chance to take action. Zhi Yujian wanted to use it as a whetstone, so why didn't it want to test the sword against an opponent of sufficient weight?
What’s wrong with the legendary level? I don’t think it’s challenging because of its low strength!
With this idea in mind, the Vulcan Moth took the lead in attacking.
The six-petaled insect wings, which are as dazzling as the sun, quiver slightly, but are actually flapping rapidly at a very high frequency that is invisible to the naked eye.
The surrounding air heated up rapidly in an instant, and the paper sword facing the Vulcan Moth felt a scorching hot air blowing towards his face that seemed to burn everything.
Hot air!
Out of respect for the paper sword, Vulcan Moth started with the most reliable hot wind.
Wherever the hot wind passed, the dark sky was instantly dyed into a large red color of burning clouds.
The wings of the Vulcan moth flapped again, and the irregular fire cloud seemed to be alive, sweeping towards the paper sword.
Xia Chen, who was being hugged by Gu Ledun and retreated further away, nodded repeatedly. Judging from this hot wind, the Vulcan Moth's control of the fire attribute energy was getting better and better.
So, how will a paper sword that has hardly fought against it deal with it?
Xia Chen curiously looked at the paper sword that was tightly wrapped in the hot wind and had no room to escape.
…………
The dark night sky of the Ultimate World, which had remained the same for decades, was illuminated red by the hot wind, and a ball of hot wind gathered into a fireball and rushed straight towards the paper sword.
Amidst the fierce fire, a silver light flashed away.
Then, this dazzling and hot fireball like a small sun was split into two in an instant, collapsing towards both sides!
boom--
Amidst the loud explosion of flames, the silver light that emerged from the fire suddenly stabbed forward, slashing in the direction of the Vulcan Moth.
Holy sword!
Amidst the humming sound of the sword, which was so slight that it was almost imperceptible, Zhi Yujian struck out the best moves it had practiced year after year.
The cold light of the sharp blade was hidden under the white fighting energy, and it struck at the Vulcan Moth's fat body.
All this happened in a split second. The stunned Vulcan Moth couldn't react in time and swallowed the powerful holy sword.
If it were before entering the ultimate world, the Vulcan Moth, who had only the strength of a heavenly king, would definitely not be able to withstand the attack of the Zhiyujian, whose attack power was absolutely legendary.
But as time passed, the Vulcan Moth, which had absorbed the projection energy of the ultimate world, did not fall. The severe pain caused it to explode with powerful power.
The Vulcan Moth's mouthparts opened wide, and scorching flames spurted out. Without the need to aim, they rolled over and engulfed the paper sword that had no time to evacuate.
The four times restraint of fire energy on grass-steel properties is no joke. Even if it is as strong as a paper sword, it still feels a burning sensation in the sea of fire that completely submerges its thin body.
It adjusted its posture and made a sword-drawing gesture, trying to repeat the same trick and break out of the sea of fire again, but this time the flames were very different from the previous hot wind.
Every time a crack was opened, tongues of fire would rush out to fill the gap. This happened even after the Zhiyu Sword cut more than a dozen swords in a row.
The result was that, after spending several precious seconds, Zhi Yujian not only failed to break through the encirclement, but instead sank deeper and deeper into the sea of fire, as if the defense was trapped in a whirlpool that was constantly sinking and falling.
This move is Vulcan Moth's best move, Flame Vortex.
To be precise, it is a flame vortex that has been improved countless times. Different from the one used for defense before, this flame vortex borrowed the inspiration of worm thread, and its main purpose is torture.
Although the scale is far less than the hot wind just now, the continuous flames in it wrap up the enemies trapped in it like silk threads. This is the reason why the paper sword has never been able to escape.
As the Vulcan Moth continued to exert its power, the temperature continued to rise. For the paper sword with ridiculously low special defense, this sea of fire could already be called hell.
And the karmic fire of hell is eating away at its vitality and energy little by little.
I must do something.
Zhi Yujian thought so.
The predicament did not make him feel frustrated, but made Zhi Yujian more determined.
If one sword cannot break the situation, then use ten swords.
If you can't do it with ten swords, then use a hundred swords, a thousand swords, until you fall!
…………
Zhi Yujian looked at the blazing fire in front of him again, and a power that he didn't know where to come from but was full of vitality suddenly emerged in his heart.
The power surged through the body, wishing it could burst out of the body in the next moment.
The paper sword does not suppress this power, but guides it to the position of the sword's blade on the body.
All it needs to do is let it flow naturally.
then.
Buzz——
boom--
Two sounds, one soft and one loud, came out one after another.
The former is the buzzing of the sword like the fluttering wings of a butterfly, and the latter is the loud explosion of the flame vortex being broken by a sword.
In an instant, the explosion of flames flew all over the sky, like grand fireworks blooming in the dark night sky, and at the same time, there was a crack.
A crack that stunned Xia Chen who was watching the battle - the ultimate cave!
Although the size is far behind the huge crack that suddenly appeared in the sky of Alola, the mysterious and profound aura is undoubtedly the ultimate cave that Xia Chen has been looking for!
Is this... a mistake?
Or it was Vulcan Moth’s careful planning.
Xia Chen looked thoughtfully at Vulcan Moth, who also had an incredible look on his face, thought for a while, and gave up thinking about this issue.
Each of our own elves is better than the other, who knows what this Vulcan Moth is thinking.
Besides, it doesn’t matter where it comes from, as long as the result is good.
And Vulcan Moth was also confused at this time. He just wanted to have a fight with this paper sword, so he made the ultimate hole?
It suddenly thought of something and asked in its heart: "Teacher, is this also part of your plan?"
Guang replied in an understatement: "A small trick is nothing."
Vulcan Moth suddenly realized that it seemed that the teacher had already planned everything that would happen next when he let him get close to Zhi Yujian. He really had a plan!
Thinking this way, the status of this down-and-out teacher in its heart became more and more respected.
What the Vulcan Moth didn't know was that [Light] was also feeling emotional inside at this moment.
Fortunately, he reacted quickly, otherwise it would have almost affected his tall image in the minds of cheap disciples.
But then again, this paper sword actually understood this sword without any guidance. He is really a genius...
At this moment, the three people who were thinking about the same thing had completely different thoughts in their minds.
