How can I be a trainer when my girlfriend is so cute?

Snow silently covered the entire valley. Each snowflake was like a carefully crafted work of art, gently and slowly landing on every inch of land until the entire world was dressed up as a pure white wonderland. That night, the snow seemed to have its own rhythm, neither hurried nor slow, but unwavering, covering the cracks in the rocks where Fang Ci and his group were hiding with a thick blanket of snow.

When the snow finally stopped, the whole world seemed to hold its breath. It was so quiet that only the occasional sound of ice crystals breaking and the gurgling of water in the distant mountain stream could be heard. After a long period of grayness and depression, the sky gradually revealed its original clear blue. A few leisurely white clouds floated leisurely, as if it was nature's gentle curtain call for this grand snow feast.

The sun, like a shy girl, slowly peeked out from behind the clouds. The golden light penetrated the mist and sprinkled on the white snow. Every snowflake seemed to be inlaid with a bright edge, flashing a dazzling and soft light. This light not only illuminated the surroundings, but also warmed the hearts of Fang Ci and his group, which were tense due to the cold.

Fang Ci and the elves worked hard to open a path in the deep snow and climbed out of the narrow crevice. Looking up at the bright sunshine in the sky, Fang Ci's heart, which had been suppressed all night, gradually relaxed.

When they finally climbed out of the narrow crack, the scene before them made them stop involuntarily. The sky seemed to be washed clean, and the bright sunshine poured down without reservation, illuminating the earth with a golden glow. Fang Ci took a deep breath of the fresh and pure air, and felt that the depression and repression in his chest were completely released with this breath. His mood became bright and open, just like the sky.

Diancie and the other elves seemed to feel the freedom and joy. After being depressed all night, they were like children who had just finished their last class before summer vacation, playing happily in the snow. They nimbly shuttled between the snow layers, sometimes jumping, sometimes rolling, leaving a series of happy footprints. They used their claws to dig up snow and threw them at each other, having a snowball fight. The laughter and joy echoed in the empty snow, adding a bit of vitality and energy to this silent world.

Fang Ci stood aside, smiling as he watched the elves playing, his heart filled with gratitude and relief. Although he still had to hurry on, Fang Ci did not stop Diancie and the others. After all, they had been holding back for a night and really needed to release some energy. If he had not been afraid of the cold, he would have joined this icy "war" a long time ago.

As Fang Ci was immersed in the innocent playfulness of the elves, an inexplicable premonition quietly crept into his heart, like a breeze blowing across a calm lake, stirring up ripples. He vaguely noticed that the ground beneath his feet seemed to tremble slightly, and this subtle movement quickly attracted the attention of the elves around him. They all stopped playing and raised their heads at the same time, their eyes passing through the flying snowflakes and focusing on the mountains in the distance.

"Haoda~" A long and low call echoed in the silent valley, breaking the original tranquility. Then, a huge whale, like a giant beast from ancient legends, staggered down from the top of the mountain. Every step it took was accompanied by a violent vibration of the ground, as if even the mountains and rivers were trembling.

At this critical moment, the Tomb Dog, which had been silently guarding nearby, suddenly became alert, and a trace of unprecedented tension and anxiety flashed in its eyes. It barked "Woof~", with a voice full of urgency and warning, trying to attract Fang Ci's attention. However, Fang Ci, who was immersed in shock and confusion, did not fully understand the Tomb Dog's intentions for a while.

At this moment, the ground began to tremble violently, as if thousands of troops were galloping underground. Fang Ci finally realized that something was wrong. He looked up suddenly and saw that behind the great whale, a pure white but dangerous snow line was sweeping towards their location at an alarming speed. It was an avalanche, a ruthless killer in nature. Once caught in it, it would be difficult to survive.

"Oh no, it's an avalanche, everyone run!" Fang Ci's face turned pale in an instant, and he shouted loudly, with unquestionable determination and urgency in his voice. He knew very well that every second of delay at this moment could be the difference between life and death. He turned around quickly, and ran in the opposite direction of the avalanche with all his strength, while not forgetting to turn back and call the elves to follow.

Seeing Fang Ci turn around and run down the mountain, Mu Yang Dog turned his head to look at the crevice they had just walked out of, but seeing that Fang Ci and the others were running farther and farther away, hesitant for a moment and finally chose to follow.

The huge whale struggled hard on the hillside. Every time it fell and got up, the mountain shook more violently, as if nature was brewing a devastating explosion. Behind it, the originally pure white snow line turned into a messenger of death, roaring and roaring towards Fang Ci and the elves with overwhelming force.

The sound of an avalanche is the most soul-stirring symphony in nature. It surpasses the sound of thunder and wind, as if the whole world is torn apart at this moment. The rumbling sound is mixed with the crackling sound of snow blocks hitting each other and the roar of snow waves. These sounds converge into an irresistible force that makes people's hearts almost jump out of their chests.

At the decisive moment, Fang Ci showed his calmness and decisiveness as a trainer. He knew that in the face of an avalanche of this scale, the power of any individual was insignificant. In order to protect the safety of the elves, he quickly took the elf ball from his waist and took Diancie and other elves back to the safe haven one by one. Every time he pressed the button, a light flashed, which was a symbol of hope and peace of mind, temporarily pulling his companions away from the disaster.

Then, Fang Ci jumped up and sat steadily on the back of the Fiery Horse. This loyal mount, sensing the urgency and determination of its master, immediately raised its four hooves, like a red lightning, drawing a gorgeous track in the snow. The Tomb Dog followed closely beside it, always keeping up with the pace of the Fiery Horse.

The avalanche, this ruthless demon, is approaching at an alarming speed. Wherever it passes, all life is devoured mercilessly, leaving behind only devastation and despair. Trees are uprooted, rocks are thrown into the air by huge force, and then fall heavily. Everything seems so fragile and vulnerable.

However, in this despair, a glimmer of hope also emerged. More and more elves, feeling the threat of the avalanche, joined Fang Ci's escape team. They were running or flying, each using their own strengths, just to find a glimmer of hope in this life-and-death situation. Although they had long adapted to the harsh environment of the snow-capped mountains, they still maintained awe of the ultimate force of nature, the avalanche, and dared not be careless.

The entire escape team, led by Fang Ci, rushed down the mountain like an unstoppable torrent. Although there was no verbal communication between them, the tacit understanding and trust were like a bond that tightly connected every life.

Just as Fang Ci and his companions were trying their best to escape the clutches of the avalanche, a sudden cliff appeared right in front of their escape route, like a cruel test set by fate, making people feel despair.

Although the speed of the Fiery Horse was amazing, it was almost impossible to change direction immediately in such an emergency. Fang Ci's heart sank suddenly, but he quickly forced himself to calm down, and his eyes quickly scanned the surroundings, looking for any possible chance of survival.

"Flame Horse, stop!" Fang Ci's voice was firm and powerful. He knew that any hesitation at this moment could lead to irreversible consequences. The Flame Horse seemed to be able to read the master's mind. Although its body leaned forward due to inertia, it still relied on its amazing balance ability and absolute trust in its master to stop at the edge of the cliff, and its raised front hooves almost touched the cold air.

At the same time, the Tomb Dog also stopped suddenly, looking around nervously, whimpering, obviously feeling uneasy about the sudden change. The other elves also stopped, looking at the insurmountable gap ahead in fear or confusion, and the air was filled with an extremely depressing atmosphere.

Just when Fang Ci and the elves were about to fall into despair, a majestic voice suddenly sounded from the sky: "Salt Stone Giant, use wide-area defense!"

At this critical moment, when despair was about to swallow everyone, an incredible turn of events occurred. A huge salt stone giant, like a guardian descending from the sky, suddenly appeared in front of everyone. Its huge body made of salt crystals was particularly dazzling against the backdrop of the snow, and every breath seemed to cause a slight vibration in the surrounding air.

The Salt Stone Giant said nothing, but instinctively opened its huge, indestructible barrier. The barrier was like a wall made of pure salt crystals, shining with a cold and firm light, firmly blocking the avalanche.

As the huge waves of the avalanche crashed into the barrier, there was a deafening roar and snowflakes flying all over the sky. However, the seemingly fragile barrier was as solid as a rock, blocking the violent force of the avalanche without any sway.

Fang Ci and the elves looked at each other, their eyes filled with disbelief and deep gratitude. This sudden rescue seemed unreal like a dream, yet it happened so vividly before their eyes. They seemed to be in a time and space shrouded in miracles, and all the fear and despair were replaced by warmth and hope at this moment.

The silhouette of the Salt Stone Giant looked even more majestic against the snow, and its body made of salt crystals shone softly and mysteriously under the sunlight. Every movement of it seemed so calm, as if the laws of nature had lost their effect in front of it. The elves gathered around, some looked up, some whispered, their eyes flashing with endless respect and gratitude for this heroic being.

Fang Ci couldn't help but be shocked by this spectacular sight. He took a deep breath and tried to calm his excitement. He knew how lucky and rare it was to be able to witness such a scene with his own eyes. The power displayed by the Salt Stone Giant Spirit had far exceeded his understanding of ordinary elves. It seemed to be the incarnation of nature itself, possessing awe-inspiring power.

As a trainer, Fang Ci could tell at a glance that this Salt Giant was extraordinary. Its true strength was probably comparable to Shimi's Blastoise, and it could even hold its own against the legendary Rock Giant Regirock.

After taking his eyes off the majestic back of the Salt Stone Giant, Fang Ci's gaze began to explore upwards. Now he was very curious about what kind of trainer could cultivate such a powerful Salt Stone Giant.

In the sky, a large bird with a snake-like head was circling there, flapping its wings continuously. On the back of the bird, an old woman with white hair and dark skin seemed to have noticed Fang Ci's gaze and nodded at it with a smile.

Fang Ci recognized at a glance that the big bird was indeed the Great First Bird, which is known as the ancestor of all bird Pokémon. Although he had never seen the trainer on the back of the bird before, Fang Ci always felt familiar with him.

While the avalanche was blocked by the salt stone giant, the old woman drove the Ancestral Bird to slowly land in front of Fang Ci.

"Are you okay, young man?" The old woman's voice was full of kindness, which made people feel closer to her unconsciously.

"I'm fine, thank you very much for your help, ma'am!" Fang Ci bowed deeply to the old woman. If it weren't for the rescue of the Salt and Stone Giant, he would have been swept off the cliff by the avalanche and smashed to pieces today.

"It's just a small favor." The old woman smiled and waved her hand, then her face became a little serious: "Young man, it's very dangerous in the snowy mountains. How dare you come here alone?"

"I'm sorry, I was indeed too careless this time." Upon hearing this, Fang Ci lowered his head guiltily. The Tomb Dog had clearly warned him long ago, but he still didn't realize the approaching danger. He even forgot to hide in the nearby crevice due to his lack of experience, causing the Tomb Dog to walk through the gates of hell with him.

Thinking of this, Fang Ci almost didn't dare to look away from the tomb dog's eyes.

"Wang~"

As if sensing Fang Ci's guilt, the Mu Yang Dog raised its head and gently licked Fang Ci's fingertips. They had just met for the first time yesterday, but the Mu Yang Dog could do this for him, which touched Fang Ci's heart.

"Once a GraveHound identifies a person, it is willing to give its life for that person. It is one of the most loyal Pokémon in the world. It's really enviable that you have such a partner!" Seeing this, the old woman couldn't help but smile.

Hearing this, Fang Ci was about to explain that the Tomb Dog was not his elf, but thinking of what had just happened, he ended up not saying it and just nodded woodenly.
