It all starts with helping Pokémon

Chapter 169 Shuang Moshan Haunted Ruins, Be Careful Of Treasure Chest Monsters...

Frost Mountain, the highest peak of Padia, stands on the top of the mountain overlooking the entire Padia area, and two of the ten scenes of Padia are here.

Although the location of the treasure hunt was on the side of the mountain, it didn't say where the ruins were, and that's where Hoshino and his team came.

"It's numb... My motorcycle lizard broke down."

Some people in the team complained that they usually rode motorcycle lizards on their way. Although mountain climbing didn't affect anything, snow mountain was a big problem.

It has been several hours since we set off from the imprint forest, and some trainers chose to quit halfway, which is really unbearable.

"..."

Hoshino understood it. The organizer is using this method to quickly eliminate some people. He probably didn't expect so many people to sign up for the event. However, the registration fee will be refunded after withdrawal, but only before the first round of treasure hunting begins quit.

There are too many people, and the drone Rotom in charge of shooting doesn't know who to focus on, and the difficulty of subsequent video editing will also increase greatly.

And as an activity that most of them sign up for voluntarily, such an exit can also show from the side that the authenticity of this treasure hunt and its different difficulty can attract more audiences.

Finally, in the evening, led by the officials, they arrived at a ruin. After dinner, the treasure hunt would officially begin.

Hoshino took a look, his team had nearly 50 people when it started, but now there are only a little more than half of them left. Fortunately, there is no one he knows in this team, and Qishu and Leihe are not here.

However, it is true that a few star trainers have been reasonably assigned to come in, but neither the Locust Man nor the Cricket Man are in the team here, what luck...

Everyone starts camping near the ruins and cooks. Trainers who come out of the academy, these are basically necessary skills, except for some guys who have mines at home.

Hoshino naturally began to prepare. Because it is nighttime, the vision will definitely be affected, and this is still on the top of the snow mountain. Although it has not snowed yet, the temperature is about minus 10°C.

"Moli..."

"Take a good rest, you've worked hard today."

Seeing that the motorcycle lizard was frozen badly, Hoshino patted its head, and after the hot soup was cooked, he gave it a drink to warm up.

I remember that the fruit tea from Boss Dai can instantly dispel the cold, but unfortunately the other party has an exclusive secret recipe and refuses to teach him at all, otherwise he can use it now.

After the motorcycle lizard was full, Hoshino took it back into the ball to rest, and had a good sleep, and he didn't need it to deal with the situation in the ruins later.

Geng Gui and Xin Yemiao were in high spirits. They wanted to find the treasure quickly to enter the second round, then the third round, and finally compete with the Locust Man. Thinking of these, they were instantly full of motivation.

The Pope dolphin shook his head. It was disappointing that those two guys were not assigned to this team. It can only be said that they took their lives.

It doesn't care about its business now, and it will be honest after suffering a loss, so it doesn't care how these people pick up treasures, it just wants to teach those two heroes a lesson.

"Jiuuuuuuuuu..."

Suo Cailing stood alone on the ice beside him, looking at the dim ruins in the distance, and the tentacles on his head that looked like treasure detectors also faintly responded.

There are definitely gold coins here, and there are quite a few of them, and there seems to be something that is attracting it, as if it is the same kind of breath!

As the night gradually deepened, some ghosts and dream monsters also began to appear around, but they did not take the initiative to attack others.

At the same time, in the ruins, light began to appear, which were some bronze mirror monsters and bronze bells. This kind of Pokémon likes to appear in the ruins the most.

"Alright, let's go!"

Seeing that the time was up, everyone immediately started to act with the Pokémon. There is only one requirement for the operation in the ruins, don't cause damage casually...

This relic is quite large. It should be some kind of king's castle in the past. Even though it was destroyed by time, it can still feel the splendor of the year, not just how much human and financial resources were wasted.

In the past of Padia, it was almost an era when heroes fought for hegemony. A large number of countries fought back and forth, and were later annexed and ruled by the Padia Empire, which is why so many castle ruins were left behind.

Geng Gui floated ahead with Suo Cailing on his back. In this kind of place, ghost-type Pokémon have a unique advantage. They can quickly detect fluctuations in spiritual power and respond conveniently when other ghosts approach.

Hoshino took them to act alone. The castle ruins are huge, and it may take several hours to explore them all.

But he has a strategy, knowing that 10 treasures are hidden in this ruins, that is to say, in this round of their group, only ten people can pass the level in the end.

But he was not in a hurry to find it, let Geng Gui and them explore and play freely for a while, and more importantly, is there a treasure chest called Cailing here.

They explored on the ground first, and then went underground. The highlight was below. It was completely dark, and some bronze mirror monsters were floating around, which made people feel even more frightened.

But Hoshino was not afraid of ghosts, so he went down without hesitation, but right after he got down, he frowned slightly, feeling something was wrong.

"Ok?"

He looked back at the stairs when he came down, there was nothing unusual, but he just felt that there was something strange, there were so many Pokémon, and there were still people hunting for treasures, but it seemed very quiet here.

"Strange, I remember that someone has already come down? Did you go further down?"

Hoshino didn't understand, but he still kept his mind on it. Seeing Geng Gui and Xin Yemiao earnestly looking for treasure, he didn't care that much, but the Pope dolphin bumped into him tremblingly.

"What are you doing?"

"Ugh..."

"Afraid of ghosts?"

"Translate!"

The Pope dolphin shook his head in displeasure. How could it be afraid of ghosts? It's just that staying here made it feel a little uncomfortable, so it wanted to return to the ball.

"..."

Seeing that it was stubborn, Hoshino had no choice but to take it back, and then continued to follow Geng Gui and the others to hunt for treasure, but at this moment, a man's screams suddenly came from the front!
"what!!!"

"Ok?"

Hearing the scream, Hoshino instantly became vigilant, and Geng Gui and the others immediately assumed an attacking posture, but apart from a scream, there was no movement from the front.

But the bronze mirror monsters were scared away by the sound, and the already dark basement was shrouded in another layer of darkness.

The surrounding temperature is still so cold, and I don't know if it's due to climate problems or other reasons. In short, it really makes people shiver.

"Let's go over and have a look, maybe it's some work done by the program crew..."

After all, the program team refused to talk about such an important thing as the treasure hunt at night. Maybe there were really some things like treasure guardians arranged in the ruins?

He glanced at Rotom, the drone responsible for filming above. Every contestant has at least one of them, which is responsible for filming the treasure hunt process, so the program team is completely clear about what happened here.

"Gengar!"

Geng Gui nodded, and then floated forward, while Xinye Miao jumped back on Hoshino's shoulder. It was really not afraid, but for protection.

But soon, Geng Gui in front seemed to have suddenly discovered something, and hurriedly shouted towards the rear.

"Gengar!"

"what happened?"

Hoshino ran over immediately, but after lighting it with a flashlight, he was stunned. On the ground in front of him, a trainer who had come with them before seemed to have lost all energy at this moment, his eyes lost their brightness and paralyzed on the ground.

Next to this, a soldier in the formation lost its ability to fight and fell apart, while the trainer was still holding a Poké Ball. It should be that the soldier in the formation was suddenly knocked down and was attacked when he was about to send out the second one.

"..."

Hoshino squatted down to check, Geng Gui floated aside, while observing the surroundings carefully, and then saw a damaged drone Rotom, apparently the attackers took all of them away.

"Is this also the effect of the show?"

He murmured silently, then shook his head, obviously it didn't look like this, the trainer was deprived of life energy, if the program team did this on purpose, then he could report it directly to the alliance.

In the past, ghost-type Pokémon in the wild would steal the life energy of humans and other Pokémon when they lacked food, and feed on it. It is said that the life energy of humans is more delicious than that of Pokémon.

However, with the development of human society later, to protect the environment and take care of wild Pokémon, a lot of fruit trees were planted in the wild for protection, so that many ghost-type Pokémon no longer lack food, so this kind of thing is much less, but still. still exists.

People can only say to try their best to curb the occurrence of this situation, but it is impossible to completely prevent it, but if the trainer directs the Pokémon to snatch life energy, once the alliance finds out, the end will be very miserable!

Hoshino died once, and then had a deep relationship with the ghost-type Pokémon. Not only did he raise two, but the Lunala he carried with him was also a ghost-type, and he even had the talent of the spirit world pass.

"Interesting, it seems that there should be a very powerful ghost-type Pokémon living here."

He couldn't help becoming interested, and then patted the trainer's face, but part of his life was taken away, and he was weak for a period of time at most, and those with poor physical fitness would suffer a serious illness, so they wouldn't die.

"Hey, just squeak if you're still alive."

"..."

"I don't know what your name is, unlucky bastard, wake up quickly, I'm Sha Fulin..."

Hearing these words, as if possessing some kind of magical power, the man came back to his senses suddenly, coughed twice, and waved his hands in a panic: "Ghost... There are ghosts..."

"What?"

"Ghost... There is... in the treasure chest..."

After leaving these words intermittently, the man finally couldn't hold on, his body was too weak, he felt a sense of powerlessness, and passed out directly.

Seeing the other party fall to the ground again, Hoshino thought carefully about what the other party said just now, forget about ghosts, there are ghosts everywhere here, mainly because of that treasure chest!
So this person found the treasure chest and thought it contained treasures, but was attacked by the treasure box monster?So what is a treasure chest monster...

"Cao Cailing in the form of a treasure chest!"
