Chapter 201 Powerful talent is also a shackle (two-in-one) (55) (please subscribe)
"Yeah, I'm curious."

Faced with the sudden appearance of the natural bird, Lai seemed very calm and not surprised at all.

"At first, I was curious why the natural bird, like my friends, forcibly suppressed its own evolution. This is not normal for wild Pokémon. I originally thought it was because of your protection, but later I realized , It’s not that I don’t want to, it’s that I can’t.”

"I can't figure out the answer to this question, but not long ago, I may have discovered the reason, which is the shackles you left in the natural bird's mind."

"It's because the natural bird's super power is too strong, right?"

As he spoke, Len paced forward, and soon came to a place a few steps away from the natural bird. Both sides could see their own reflections in the other's eyes.

[Yes, you are very perceptive, and leaving my daughter to you makes me feel more at ease. 】

The natural bird showed some relief, and then started his own story after Lai's words.

······
Ever since birth, Natural Bird has had superpowers far beyond the norm. The riot when he was just born even created a clearing in the current residence of Natural Bird. All trees, flowers and plants were uprooted and swept away.

At that time, as the daughter of the powerful Pokémon with super powers, Natural Bird, Natural Bird's talent was only considered to be extremely powerful. It was a big step forward on the foundation of her mother. Overlords from all over the world came to visit one after another with reverence for Natural Bird. celebrate.

In the following months, apart from being precocious, the natural bird also lost the strong performance it had when it was born, and everything seemed to have returned to normal.

But when it was half a year old, a more powerful rampage came.

In the process of leaving the natural bird's territory and going out to play, the natural bird was preempted by a spoon snake to pick away its favorite tree fruit, and was also attacked by this big man who did not recognize him.The young natural bird had no fighting experience and was quickly defeated.

The demon fire red fox in the distance keenly felt the fluctuation of super power and rushed to the scene quickly. When he saw the rice spoon snake trying to swallow the natural bird in one bite, he broke out in a cold sweat and went up to kill this idiot.

But at this moment, a sudden change came.The natural sparrow, which had already been seriously injured and fell to the ground and lost consciousness, erupted from its body with a power that frightened even the demon fire red fox, who was already the top quasi-king of heaven at that time. The blue superpower light seemed to condense into a solid body, forming a The absolute space of a cube locks the Snake inside.

Soon, this space began to collapse and gradually retracted into the body of the natural bird. The rice spoon snake, along with the piece of land, were completely annihilated in the space, and there was no trace of its existence anymore.

From then on, natural sparrows began to have super powers. All the methods and skills were learned instantly. The reserve of power increased day by day. Huge energy fluctuations spread out of the body. All childhood playmates became I was so scared that I stayed far away from it and didn't dare to get close.

Without its companions, it became lonely, and its powerful strength left it at a loss.At first, he was willing to talk to his mother, but over time he found that it was useless, so he simply closed his heart and stayed alone all day, wandering around the island.

After the rice spoon snake incident, the overlords of various regions quickly found out about it, and invariably forced all Pokémon not to do anything extraordinary to the natural sparrow.

If this is the case, Natural Sparrow will only be a genius Pokémon with a cold personality and a soft heart armed with a hard shell, but the degree of genius is too high.

But the problem is that although the natural bird's superpower talent is seriously off the charts, its body is just an ordinary body that is slightly stronger than the ordinary natural bird.There are specializations in the arts, and superpowers can only be slightly enhanced subtly, but cannot fundamentally reverse the contradiction between the rapid improvement of abilities and the slow development of the body.

Over time, it is like a pond that cannot hold the sea.The powerful superpowers are packed into the small body of the natural bird, and then they are forced to compress and compress again, and they are completely piled up.

In this way, the super power is no longer simply the ability of the natural bird, but more of a burden on it. The energy level of level 41 is already extremely powerful for a Pokémon that is just two years old. The Big-billed Gull is only at this level, but for the Natural Bird, it is already the result of trying to suppress it. Without paying attention, it was raised from level 39 to this level.

However, increasing the energy level is not a good thing for the natural bird.The increasingly powerful energy had made it completely unbearable as early as half a year ago, and headaches tormented it every day.Forced to have no choice but to take advantage of the fact that his superpowers were stronger than those of his daughter, Ziraniao forcibly set up an energy seal, locking the excessive superpowers in a corner of Ziraniao's spiritual world.

After the blockade, the endless headaches temporarily stopped, and the natural bird's strength was also under control, and it began to be able to perform naturally again. However, at this moment, it became particularly easy to get tired, especially after using a large number of super powers.

For other Pokémon, even if they are out of strength, they will almost never sweat like pulp and get soaked to the point of being soaked, but for Natural Sparrow, this does not happen once or twice.Its weakness has become more and more serious under the torture of superpowers.

But this is also just a temporary measure. The natural bird's superpowers are increasing day by day, as if there is no end or bottleneck. After the rampage, the progress is not fast every day, but it is like this every day.One day, it will surpass the natural bird whose strength has reached its peak and is unable to make any progress, break this seal, and then take away the life of the natural bird after a hearty release.

Originally, evolution would have been a good choice.But the powerful super power has locked up the natural bird's body, and has also raised the threshold of evolution infinitely. Now that it has exceeded level 40, it is not that it doesn't want to, but in fact it cannot. It is not the natural bird's own consciousness that suppresses the impulse to evolve. It is a superpower that is too powerful and takes over the spotlight.

Since all methods failed, the natural bird contacted all the overlord Pokémon and announced its decision: in the days when the natural bird can still survive, do everything possible to make it happy, meet all its requirements, and take all losses. Pay by the natural bird.

In the few months after the seal, Natural Bird became a veritable earth king on the island. Wherever he went, he was followed and protected by powerful Quasi-King Pokémon.But this did not make it happy. After a big quarrel with its mother, it became more withdrawn and taciturn. It was not until it met Lai that it changed in the experience.

"Did Tianzong's talent become a shackle and a talisman because it was too powerful?"

After listening to Ziraniao's explanation, a series of doubts in Lai's mind connected together. Ziraniao's strength, sensitivity, and lack of frankness all had a reason.In this way, there is a reason for Natural Bird to introduce it to him.

After listening to Lai's soliloquy, Natural Bird nodded in agreement.

[Yeah, talent turned into poison.But fortunately for me, your appearance changed everything. That day, I made more than one prophecy. At the expense of my future eyes, I opened two prophecies at the same time. 】

Lai raised his head, and the natural bird's right eye was indeed a bit dim. Although he still had vision, it was no longer as miraculous as before.

[The star track guides me, there will be variables that can change my daughter's fate falling from the sky, and I will stand shoulder to shoulder with the emperor of the jungle. 】

[So, from the moment I felt the Lizard King’s resurgence, I realized that you were the variable. 】

[If my plan makes you feel uncomfortable, I am willing to apologize to you and compensate you, but I also hope you understand a mother’s fear. 】

Hope, guilt, fear and sincerity intertwined in the voice of the natural bird, leaving no room for rejection.

Len himself had no intention of refusing.

No matter what the original intention of the natural bird is, the experience and bond between myself and the natural bird are real. The fate has been forged, and there is no reason to break it off.

"I understand your difficulties, and I don't regret participating in this matter. Natural Bird is already my partner and family. It is my responsibility to save her and make her a strong and happy Pokémon."

"According to you, this variable is the power of my heart, right?" Lai took a step forward and looked directly into the slightly dodgy eyes of the natural bird.

[Yes, but not entirely. 】

Natural Bird's explanation was so vague that Lai couldn't figure it out.

"It's not complete. What's missing?"

[There is no lack of anything else, but more is needed, so much that it may be overwhelming. 】

As soon as he said it, Leiden understood.

The superpowers accumulated over the years and the weak and fragile body are not problems that can be solved in the short term with the power of a steady stream of heart. To truly solve it, only the long-term and the short-term can be used together.

In the long term, it is naturally the transformation and strengthening of the body by the power of the heart.Among the various wonderful uses of the power of the heart, the most miraculous is the body transformation. Pokémon as weak as a newborn baby, as strong as the king-level Lizard King, and the steel and iron bog monsters such as Swampert and Owl. In front of us, we can all achieve steady improvement bit by bit. At least so far, we haven't seen the end of it.

In the short term, the previous method of combining the power of the heart with superpowers is to release most of the excess superpowers for Tianque.But this time's use is not the "little fight" like before.The sealed superpowers are ten times the size of the natural bird's existing superpowers, and they are becoming more and more solid every day. Not only does the amount that needs to be neutralized increase, but the solidified superpowers also increase. the difficulty of processing.

"Can this seal be released for a short time and then closed again? Can your super power do this?"

Len proposed a solution, but it was clearly the idea of ​​a superpower layman.

Natural Bird shook his head without thinking: [This seal can only be strengthened and filled. Once broken, there is no room for recovery. 】

"In other words, I can either accompany the natural bird for the rest of my life for who knows how long, or I can tie its life and death, and maybe my life and death, together to meet what you call the 'variables of fate'?"

Lai's face was as calm as water, making it impossible for the nearby natural birds to see through, so he could only reply anxiously: 【That's what it means. 】

Before Len could speak, the Lizard King behind him, who had been quietly listening to the entire conversation, stepped out of his shock and strode forward.

"The reason!"

This is simply nonsense!

"Natural bird, what are the chances of success?"

Holding down the lizard king who rarely fell into irrationality and rushed forward, in its unbelievable eyes, Lai asked his question.

【I have no idea. 】

Natural Bird's answer is also very frank. Faced with such an unprecedented problem, no one knows the solution or the probability of success.

"That is to say, as a mother, you are willing to take the risk of losing your daughter early and try to save her again, right? If I read it correctly at the time, the superpowers in the natural bird are not in you. That means he was sacrificed forever, right?"

[Yes, I know my own abilities very well. As the price for obtaining and using the true Eye of the Future and the Eye of the Past, in terms of strength, I can no longer take a step forward, so for the sake of my daughter, there is nothing I cannot do. What you give up includes your own spirit and soul.If I can save her, even if there is only the slightest chance, I will not hesitate. 】

Ziraniao's words were decisive, with a hint of determination in his tone.

But when it looked at Lai, it looked a bit weak and pleading.

"You really gave me a big problem, Natural Bird." Closing his eyes, silently digesting the huge amount of information in the conversation, Lai gently pressed his temple with his thumb, "It's extremely difficult and risky, The cost may be unbearable, and the corresponding hope of success is very slim.”

After hearing this, most of the fire of hope in the natural bird's eyes was extinguished. It also knew that such a risk would make even a blood relative hesitate, let alone a new partner who has only known it for more than a week.

But immediately after, Lai's words made it overjoyed.

"So, what are we waiting for?"

"The reason!"

Are you crazy? !
"I'm not crazy, Lizard King." After lightly patting the Lizard King's shoulder, Len began to pace left and right, and slowly spoke, not only to the two Pokémon in front of him, but also to the people who had been studying the power of heart for several months. Still not making much progress, he said.

"What is the power of the heart? A friend who has left me once taught me a lot. The most important point is that you must practice your beliefs at any time. When your heart is no longer firm, The power of the heart will wither and dry up, as if it never existed."

"Our will is the source of all existence."

"It turns out that the power of my heart is not infinite. It will be exhausted, and it will also enter self-protection due to excessive pressure. Because I am also an ordinary person, and I have my own limits."

"But this is my limit, not the limit of the power of the heart. I always believe that it is a great power with no limit and no ultimate, because the whole world is in our hearts and in the hearts of all things."

"I trust the natural bird just as she trusts me. I have no reason to give up the possibility of saving her, because it would go against my heart and my will."

"So, let us work together to completely solve this problem."

"It's just that the premise of everything is that the natural bird makes a consent decision through its own will."

Lai took a deep look at Tianniao. He already knew what the other person was thinking, but he didn't reveal it.

He also has no power to prevent a mother from making sacrifices for her daughter.
