Chapter 331 Gold Coins, Money-Seeking Spirits, and the Crystallized Sand-Eating Castle Lord

Since Lei He said that some props should be prepared, let him explore the surrounding area first.

Luo Mu came to the tilted watchtower with a flashlight and observed this building that was said to have been built in the ancient Parthenon Empire.

The tower body is made of rough stones. Under the illumination of the flashlight, it can be clearly seen that the stone surface has become smooth and hard after being polished by wind and sand. It is unknown what kind of stone it is. It can be exposed to the wind and sun in this hot desert for such a long time and only tilted slightly and most of the tower body sank into the sand.

The tower body almost merged with the dark night. If it were not for the previous car lights and the current flashlight, Luo Mu might not have noticed that there was a watchtower buried here when he passed by, and under the watchtower was the tomb of the former Parthenon Empire officials.

Just as Luo Mu was observing the tilted watchtower with a flashlight, the thick gravel piled up under his feet slowly flowed at a speed that would not be discovered under the control of some mysterious force.

On the top of the Tilted Watchtower, a little man who was hiding in the dark and was only about ten centimeters tall carefully poked his head out and looked at the sand below with some fear.

It wanted to remind the humans below, but was afraid of the big guy hiding in the sand, and fell into a state of entanglement.

After walking around the Tilted Watchtower for about ten minutes, Luo Mu, who was almost tired of looking at the tower, planned to summon Dragonite to fly to the top of the tower to have a look.

After all, the Padya Alliance did not maintain the Tilted Watchtower in the hot desert. It would not be surprising if this building collapsed at any time. Luo Mu did not dare to climb outside the tower rashly. If he was buried alive by accident, it would not be fatal, but it would be very embarrassing.

Just as he lowered his head and was about to take out the Poké Ball, Luo Mu frowned slightly at the bottom of his feet

If it was not his illusion, the sand seemed to be moving slowly?

Before Luo Mu could think clearly, the next moment, Lei He, who was not far away, suddenly screamed.

"Ah!"

Luo Mu looked over there quickly, and saw Lei He, who was carrying a large box with unknown contents, looking at her feet gradually sinking into the yellow sand, and she subconsciously screamed in surprise.

Then, forcing herself to calm down, Lei He quickly realized that some Pokémon was playing tricks on her, and planned to take out the Poké Ball and let the Pokémon, whose mental power had recovered after a day's rest, help her get rid of the yellow sand that bound her feet.

At this time, an orange-yellow shadow passed through the dark night sky, and Lei He and the large box in her arms were pulled out of the yellow sand by Dragonite and stopped directly in mid-air.

"Thank you"

Dragonite brought Lei He to Luo Mu's side. Lei He, who was standing on the ground again, felt the sand on her shoes. While she was standing uncomfortably, she did not forget to thank Luo Mu and Dragonite.

Although Lei He was fully capable of saving herself, Luo Mu and Dragonite did save her, which was a fact.

Luo Mu nodded slightly, accepting Lei He's thanks, and then asked, "Are you okay?"

"It's okay, but..."

Lei He looked at the yellow sand in the distance, which seemed to have flowed faster because of her escape, swallowed half of the tires of the off-road vehicle, and was about to touch the base, and frowned slightly.

"There is something under the yellow sand, it should be a Pokémon."

Luo Mu nodded slightly: "I know, and it is a ghost Pokémon that is particularly good at hiding its breath, so you and I didn't notice it before."

The Dragonite, which was flapping its wings and stopped in the air beside the two of them, also vaguely sensed some vague breath under the yellow sand, and was moving its sight to find the location of the guy's body.

At this time, Luo Mu also completed the communication with the system and knew the true body of the Pokémon hidden under the yellow sand that was secretly planning to swallow Lei He and himself, as well as its location.

"Dragonite, use water cannon on the left rear tire of the off-road vehicle!"

Under Lei He's surprised eyes, Luo Mu suddenly spoke to command Dragonite.

What surprised Lei He even more was that the next second after Luo Mu's voice fell, Dragonite completed the charging in its mouth, and the azure water flow quickly gathered, turning into a thick water column that pierced through the night and the air, and immediately descended on the location Luo Mu pointed to.

This sense of trust and execution, Lei He believed that even Zoroark, who was with her day and night, might not be able to do this.

Under the flushing of the thick water column, the Pokémon that secretly attacked let out a strange scream and jumped straight out of the yellow sand.

In addition, because of the flushing of Dragonite's water cannon, the yellow sand in the sand near the off-road vehicle was quickly washed away, and the dazzling crystals that had been buried inside for an unknown period of time suddenly burst into brilliant light, turning into a light column that soared into the sky, like a sharp sword piercing the sky.

"Is this. Taijing Crystal!?"

Lei He immediately covered her mouth, her expression full of surprise.

After all, she is a history teacher at Orange Academy, and naturally has a clear understanding of the mysterious phenomena in the Padiya region since ancient times.

Once a Pokémon comes into contact with the energy emitted by a Taicrystal, it will undergo a transformation called Taicrystalization, and its body will shine with a crystalline coating like a cut gem.

It is said that the Padiya Alliance is planning to popularize the controllable crystallization technology jointly developed by Orin and Dr. Fortu.

"That's right. And this is the crystallized Pokémon."

Luo Mu nodded slightly, confirming Lei He's statement, and looked at the Pokémon that jumped out of the yellow sand.

Sand Eater, a Pokémon with ghost + ground attributes.

Crystal attribute. Grass!

Sand Eater is just as its name suggests. The whole Pokémon looks like a castle made of yellow sand. This "castle" consists of three parts, namely the main body in the middle and the hands on both sides.

The arched structure of the main body in the middle, which looks like a city gate, is actually a mouth with pink and blue stones on it, including the top of its head.

The mouth of Sand Eater leads directly to the back, and there is a red shovel inserted upside down on the top of its head. It is said to have the function of a radar. When Sand Eater hides in the yellow sand, it probably relies on the shovel to locate the position of Luo Mu and Lei He.

Originally, the water cannon should be the natural enemy of the Sand Eater, because if it is hit by excessive water, it will not be able to maintain the shape of the castle.

But it seems that because it is too crystallized, the Sand Eater still did not show any sign of being scattered into a piece of yellow sand under the water cannon of Dragonite just now.

After leaving the yellow sand, the Sand Eater made an angry and sharp cry, as if it was angry that Dragonite dared to use its most hated water-attribute move.

On the Tilted Watchtower, because of the sharp cry of the Sand Eater, the little man-like Pokémon put down the gold coins that he had been carefully keeping, and held his head with both hands, looking scared.

After all, it was because of the Sand Eater that it was trapped on the tower here.

The Sand Eater has been rampant near the Tilted Watchtower for a long time.

Especially when the strange crystal suddenly condensed.

After coming into contact with the crystal, the Sand Eater, whose body was also coated with a layer of crystal, was hit by a water-attribute move in a fight with other Pokémon. Knowing his weakness of being afraid of water, the Sand Eater, who thought he was doomed, found that his body did not disintegrate, and the damage of the water-attribute move was much lower than he expected.

From that moment on, the Sand Eater understood how powerful the effect of this crystal was.

As a ghost-type Pokémon, the Sand Eater has an extremely excellent energy perception ability. It found that the crystal would continuously dissipate energy when exposed to the air, so it chose to control the yellow sand to bury the crystal and slow down the dissipation rate of the crystal energy.

Since then, the Sand Eater has regarded the crystal and this area as its own territory.

And Reho, Romu and Dragonite are equivalent to invading the territory of the Sand Eater. Not only did they not stand at attention and take the beating, but they also took out the Taijing crystal that it had concealed with great difficulty.

I am afraid that after a while, other Pokémon who noticed the light column will come to invade.

This made the Sand Devourer, who regarded the Taijing crystal as his own property, extremely angry.

A brilliant light suddenly burst out of the angry Sand Devourer's mouth. With the power of Taijing, a brilliant green light beam gushed out at Dragonite, almost illuminating half of the night sky.

A move that released a large amount of Taijing energy in the body in one breath, Taijing Explosion!

Because the Sand Devourer was of the Taijing Grass attribute at this time, this move of Taijing Explosion belonged to the grass attribute attack.

Facing the Taijing Explosion, Dragonite was too lazy to dodge and let the Taijing Explosion explode on his body.

Luo Mu looked even more strange. Dragonite had four times the resistance to grass attribute attacks, and there were multiple scales to weaken damage. This Sand Devourer didn't seem to have a high level of education.

After the brilliant Taijing explosion ended, the almost unscathed Dragonite not only made the Sand Devourer fall into an unbelievable state of astonishment, but also the face of the little man on the top of the tower who had closed his eyes was full of shock.

A few days ago, it saw Sand Devourer kill a crocodile that looked very strong with this move!

"Pooh~"

Originally, Sand Devourer's strength was far inferior to its own, not to mention this abstract grass-attributed Taijing burst.

At this time, Dragonite felt like it had been rubbed in a bath, and it felt comfortable all over.

Dragonite, who felt comfortable all over, decided to fight back. It flapped its dragon wings wrapped with airflow, and high-speed airflows swept towards Sand Devourer. Accompanied by the whistling of wind that was even more piercing than Sand Devourer's weird scream, the quicksand around Sand Devourer exploded instantly, and it itself was directly deprived of most of its physical strength under the attack of several storms.

"Kacha——"

A clear kacha sounded, and the next moment, not only was Sand Devourer directly beaten out of the Taijing state by Dragonite, but even the Taijing crystal that was buried under the yellow sand, with only a sharp corner exposed, turned into light debris all over the sky and was completely shattered.

"Ding"

The little man on top of the tilted watchtower cried out in surprise, his eyes darting around Dragonite and Luo Mu.

Did such a powerful Sand Eater lose to them just like that?
