Pinnacle of the Stars

Chapter 24 24. Fall, Then Get Up, Like a Hero

N focused on where Lu Qiu was.

Upon request, he also released the Snow Fairy from before.

Elegant and dignified.

He was watching Xiangwei Nyan with great interest.

From time to time, he would look up at Lu Qiu.

In addition to the rather annoying sense of intimacy, there seems to be something extra attractive about the two.

A little unpleasant, but not disgusting.

'Like stinky tofu. '

He folded his hands in front of him expressionlessly.

'I want to eat. '

'Call N to buy it for me next time. '

Turning her head to look at the guy who had never paid attention to her except for saying hello when she came out, the snow demon girl shook her head and denied the decision for a moment.

'Sure enough, let him make it for me. '

On the side, behind Zoroark, the pickpocket cat habitually stretched its paws towards Xie Mi, its eyes pretending to look at the stage set up in a temporary circle in the distance, and at the same time trying to pick off the eye-catching green grass on the latter's back.

To no avail, he was kicked in the face by the angry latter.

Zoroark glanced at it writhing in pain, shook his head and ignored it.

In the distance, under the watchful eyes of N and the Pokémon, Lu Qiu let out a deep breath.

He lowered his head and glanced at Xiangwei, and then both nodded at the same time.

"It's coming!"

"Meow!"

Without using the power of the Heart of Winter, N told him that for the sake of his body's recovery, it's best not to activate it for a short time.

Therefore, all the things to do now depend on Xiang Weimao himself.

Its own strength!

"Jump up and use Blizzard."

Following the direction that Lu Qiu pointed, facing the audience looking at him, Xiangwei Mao began to accelerate, and then accelerated again, until reaching his own acceleration limit, his body leaped high into the night sky.

At the same time, cold air overflowed from both sides of the mouth in the direction of the wind.

Immediately afterwards, it slowed down its tense body and took the initiative to unload all subsequent forces.

While everyone looked up and watched, Xiangwei Meow blew the blizzard in his mouth towards the ground, and with a momentary burst of strength, he helped his body fly higher.

There was a look of approval in Snow Demon Girl's eyes.

It can see the subsequent changes that this move will produce.

In terms of the ability it feels from the opponent, it is very rare to achieve such a level.

Soon, when the body crossed the canopy, the position that the power of the blizzard could reach reached the limit, and the moment before the body began to fall, Xiangwei still kept the movement of its mouth and continued to blow.

I saw that the speed of Blizzard suddenly changed from sharp to slow, and as Xiang Weimao's body turned, it drew a light white graceful arc in mid-air.

There was no confusion in his eyes, even though he had already started to fall to the ground at this moment.

"Meow to the end, freeze the light."

Lu Qiu on the ground measured the distance for Xiangweimaow, and gave the next order in advance.

There is no pause in the connection of moves.

The ice blue light beam replaces the snowflakes and pours down. Different from the continuous release method of the blizzard, the freezing light is at a continuous and short speed, making the previous snowflakes fly like a whirlwind, centered on the position where the light beam shoots out. Circling and descending.

The killing intent between the skills is still the same, even if it is a little lighter than before, it can still make the witnesses feel the bone-chilling cold. This is true of the two skills taught by the Heart of Winter.

No changes were made.

Knowing that there is no way to eliminate such subjective feelings in a short period of time, Lu Qiu thought of a solution from the side. Since the judges are flowers, let them feel the new life from the severe winter!

I saw snowflakes slowly congealing around the beams of light, like falling meteors, hitting the ground at the same time as Xiangweimaow.

"Iron tail!"

Following Lu Qiu's instructions, Xiangwei Cat borrowed the reverse force generated when the last freezing light shot out, flipped lightly in mid-air, and slammed its metallic tail to the ground heavily.

That is the only central position formed after counting together the many rays of light shot down on the ground.

The snow has settled.

At the same moment, the last move was smashed down.

This is the inspiration from the combination of Tianlong Meteor.

The fallen stars shook the piled up snow, and the Xiangwei cat that fell on the ground kept moving, chasing its tail and running under the rising snowflakes.

Fast, faster.

The tail flaps left and right, making bells while blowing the breeze.

Anticipation, nervousness, and a moment's absence.

With Xiangwei Miao's persistent efforts, Lu Qiu's nails were tightly clasped in the palm of his hand, and he hung down on his side unwillingly, trembling uncontrollably.

In his line of sight, on the flower that was adjusted and arranged by the freezing light, a rudiment had just risen with the rotation of the tail cat, but was blown away by a ray of night wind that happened to pass by here.

There was no resistance.

Just like a flower of hope that has just bloomed, it is fleeting.

'Failed. '

Looking at Xiangwei who was still chasing its tail and turning around, Lu Qiu couldn't help hugging his shoulders.

He spit out a mouthful of cold mist, and some complicated emotions welled up in his heart.

Although it has long been foreseen that there is a high probability of failure.

But what he didn't expect was that without the blessing of the power of the Heart of Winter, the accident was not caused by the most critical ice move, but the last blow on the iron tail.

The power is not enough, and the speed of the snowflakes rising is too slow.

A skill that was accidentally realized by exercising a series of slaps, this move has not been used too many times in the past.

Lu Qiu knew this, so he tried many times in practice.

Originally, I wanted to use it to shake the snowflakes after they were distributed.

But he forgot that this is not a closed training room.

The expected flower did not bloom as expected.

Gradually, Xiangwei Miao seemed to understand something.

It didn't wait for Lai Luqiu's final instruction.

The movement stopped slowly, and under the reminder of the snowflake that fell on its forehead, it helplessly turned its gaze to the trainer.

'What's wrong.'

"Failed."

Lu Qiu pulled out a smile, "Sorry."

The Snow Demon Girl turned her head, stretched out her hand and pressed the button of the elf ball on N's waist, and went back inside without even saying hello.

For it, what it wants to see has already been seen.

The rest is not important at all.

To it, Xiangwei is very weak, just like its master.

Not much to expect from such a combination, is it?
Staring at the silent stage, Zoroark pressed down the pickpocket cat beside him who was trying to get closer with his paw. During the latter's struggle, he yawned and propped up his jaw.

'Nothing to see. '

it thinks.

'You might as well fight me. '

I'm not interested in acting, it's been like this from the beginning to the end.

However, Zoroark was not bored.

In order to become stronger and stronger, at the moment when the 'red hair dumpling' flew up, a voice sounded in its mind:
'Look, I did it. '

hiss.
Who did I say this to?

In the silence, Xie Mi looked left and right, and then ran towards the direction of the tail cat.

On the green grass, a pale white flower grew out of thin air.

As he passed it, Shaymi opened his mouth and bit it off.

Its strength only stops here, and it cannot walk in the sea of ​​flowers like its companions, but it also knows that even if it is itself, there are things that it wants and must do at this moment.

——Without the help of others, relying on one's own strength alone.

Xiangweimaow watched Xie Mi leaning towards him, lowering his head to send flowers to himself, shrugging his ears, turning around and gently pushing him away with his tail.

This made Xie Mi anxious, but kept yelling and refused to give up.

It also does not use telepathy to communicate with people.

'Swish'

Lu Qiu came step by step, and opened his shoulders.

Miao Xiangwei looked at him, hesitated for a long time, and finally rushed over.

And buried his face very deep.

"Not bad performance." N looked at Lu Qiu who was approaching and said, "It's wonderful, but the photos are a bit worse than mine."

As he spoke, he made a movement of closing his index finger and thumb at the same time.

Lu Qiu couldn't help laughing: "Is there a universe between your fingers?"

N nodded and said, "If you are interested, I can explain it to you in detail."

"Forget it, I have to calm down for a while." Lu Qiu shook his head and rejected the kindness.

N looked at him, not trying to comfort him.

Because when he is in the same situation, he doesn't need others to treat him like this.

"I'm leaving." N said.

Hearing this, Lu Qiu just nodded, "Go back to Jihua Market?"

"No, I have no reason to stay here." N put his hands in his pockets. Seeing this, Zoroark also held the pickpocket cat by the back of the neck and slowly got up, "Besides, I have to send those Pokémon Go back, time is running out."

While comforting Xiangwei Miao, Lu Qiu raised his head and said, "I will find a way to explain it for you at Jihua City."

N looked at him and shook his head, "Let's just pretend that Cat Eight is dead, don't worry about it."

"Shamy—"

During the conversation, Xie Mi, who had been following Lu Qiu all this time, suddenly bumped into the former's calf.

The cry attracted the attention of both of them.

Seeing Xie Mi looking towards him, N nodded, turned his head and conveyed to Lu Qiu for it: "It wants to go with you."

At this moment, Xiangwei Miao kept burying her face in Lu Qiu's chest without responding.

Feeling the moisture on his chest, Lu Qiu shook his head and said, "It's too small."

N looked at him, waiting for an explanation.

"I can't teach it telepathy, and as a fantasy Pokémon, Xie Mi is too precious in people's eyes." Lu Qiu saw Xie Mi looking at him with expectant eyes, and sighed: "If you do it again When I meet someone like Team Rocket, I can't protect it."

Hearing this, N suddenly flicked his fingers hard to his forehead.

"What are you doing?!" Lu Qiu held his forehead with one hand and gasped.

"It's nothing, I see you are too serious." N had a vague smile on the corner of his mouth, "It's just right, anyway, I don't like to see Pokémon caught by humans."

After finishing speaking, he bowed his head to Xie Mi and said, "He said, he doesn't want you."

Like a bolt from the blue, Xie Mi took a few steps back in disbelief, followed, and threw himself on Lu Qiu's lap without hesitation and hugged him tightly.

On the side, its partners also gathered around at the moment, and looked up at Lu Qiu together with their small eyes open.

N took a few steps back, then turned around and waved to Lu Qiu at the same time, "Then I'll go first."

"So-"

'goodbye. '

Zoroark also bid farewell to Xiangwei, but the latter did not respond.

Watching N's figure getting smaller and smaller, he kept watching until finally he disappeared together with the shadow.

Holding Xiangwei in his arms tightly, Lu Qiu lowered his body and took out the small cloth bag from his pocket.

"This is for you."

Under the gaze of Xie Mi, Lu Qiu put the amulet bought at [-] union coins around its neck, "I will come and take you away when we meet next time."

Until then, please give me time to grow strong enough to protect you.

Shamy shook his head.

Constantly shaking his head.

Facing the pair of eyes that gave him hope in the sea of ​​fire, it was unwilling to give up.

Gently, the companions bit its tail.

He looked up and said goodbye with his eyes. Under Lu Qiu's nod, Xie Mi and his companions grabbed their companions together, and followed, white and green light surrounded them.

"Farewell, friend of mankind."

The petals fluttered in the wind, and among the countless fragrances of flowers, this group of natural relatives embarked on a journey again with the dissipated light.

Gently sniffing the last gift Xie Mi gave him, under the empty grassland, Lu Qiu stepped on his feet and said to himself:
"It's cold, let's go back."
