"Huh, we finally got out..." Xiaoxia said indignantly.
Well, just now, in order to get out of the crack, the two of them really hesitated (please note that this is a pun) for a long time.
"You should hold me from behind, don't let Charmander outside." Guan Liyuan said.
"Pull, hold you? Why?" Xiaoxia's reaction was a bit intense.
After seeing Guan Liyuan couldn't help but look at her in surprise, she turned her head away and pretended to be nothing.
"I remember Professor Oak prepared it for me... I found it! It's this... night vision goggles! Plus an infrared flashlight, so that it doesn't emit too much light, and you can see things in the dark." Guan Liyuan said.
Regarding the previous attack by Zubat, Guan Liyuan felt that at least half of it was Charmander's fault!
Although Zubat is not a particularly friendly type in Pokémon, it is different from the naturally frenzied Beedrill...
The reason why they attacked Guan Liyuan and Xiaoxia in groups is not only because the two entered their territory, but also because Pokémon in the wild will naturally resist when they see Pokémon captured by humans.
If it is a gentle Pokémon, it is not a big problem to see Charmander, but Zubat, which has a slightly aggressive personality, immediately became irritable after "favorability decreased"...
So Guan Liyuan thought it would be better to put away Charmander, and if a strong flashlight is used underground, the taunting effect is estimated to be not small, so Guan Liyuan took out the infrared night vision goggles.
"Only one?"
"Of course... I didn't expect to have a companion." Guan Liyuan said helplessly.
Well, Xiaoxia can only choose whether to pull Guan Liyuan herself, or she wears the night vision goggles and is pulled by Guan Liyuan...
In the end, it was as Guan Liyuan said, he walked in front with the night vision goggles, and Xiaoxia pulled the corner of his clothes from behind.
"Do you remember which fork in the road we just came from?"
"Left...right! No...left..." Xiaoxia was confused.
This was the third fork in the road, and there were at least seven or eight more behind it, and some had more than two forks!
"It seems that it will be a bit difficult to get back to where we fell." Guan Liyuan said while rubbing his head.
But he was not too worried. He still had enough compressed biscuits to eat for several days, and Xiaoxia still had a lot of water-type Pokémon...
and although there was no mobile phone signal here, Guan Liyuan could still send a private message to Professor Oak!
After all, the forum's signal can even penetrate the walls of the universe nest, let alone the surface of the earth.
"Then there is only one other way... If you get lost in the 'Mole Hole' and can't return the same way, the best way is to catch a mole or a sandshrew, and then let it lead the way, or dig a temporary path out." Xiaoxia said.
This kind of self-rescue method, in the Pokémon world, is like "covering your mouth and nose with a wet towel in case of fire", which is a common sense issue!
"But how should we find the 'mole'? Damn... I thought there should be a lot of moles in the 'mole hole'! I haven't seen one in such a long time!" Guan Liyuan said depressedly.
"Leave it to me..." Xiaoxia said as she loosened the corner of Guan Liyuan's clothes.
Guan Liyuan felt it and turned around in confusion, only to see Xiaoxia slightly tilting her head and letting her arms slightly spread out...
"Is this... asking for a hug?" Guan Liyuan asked hesitantly.
There were tic-tac-toes on Xiaoxia's head. Although she couldn't see clearly, she still glanced in the direction of the voice and said, "Shut up!"
Then she closed her eyes again, took a few deep breaths, turned her head with a deep look to the right and said, "Go this way!"
"...Is this the oracle you got after praying to the 'God of Directionlessness'?" Guan Liyuan said with a twitch in his mouth.
"Believe me!"
"Actually, I believe you, but this is a wall..."
"..."
Guan Liyuan felt that it was not unfair for this guy to get lost!
"Then go around, anyway, this direction." Xiaoxia said a little embarrassedly, who told her that she couldn't see anything now?
Xiaoxia knew that if she didn't explain, Guan Liyuan would just think she was crazy.
"Actually, I also have the 'Power of Water Control'! It's just... it hasn't fully awakened yet... but I can still sense which side has a more humid breath!" When Xiaoxia first spoke, she seemed very proud, but her tone became weaker later.
The power of water control is one of the rare abilities that only a few trainers in the Pokémon world can possess!
Although water-type Pokémon are not as pretentious as dragon-type Pokémon, trainers without the "Power of Water Control" can also capture water-type Pokémon, but trainers with the "Power of Water Control" are more likely to get the favor of water-type Pokémon, and there is also a certain increase in efficiency during training...
If it is fully awakened, you can even vaguely feel the heart of the water-type Pokémon, which is equivalent to being compatible with a weakened version of "mind communication"!
"Then why go this way?" Guan Liyuan was still a little confused.
"The 'hole digging' of the mole is equivalent to compressing the soil together for a certain period of time. At this time, the water vapor in the soil will be discharged, which means that the air in the newly dug location is more humid!" Xiaoxia said.
"I see..."
Indeed, if it is simply digging, then with the current space of the "mole hole", the soil dug out should have piled up into a small hill!
At the same time, this also made Guan Liyuan more clearly understand why the effects of Pokémon are different when using the "hole digging" skill...
Ordinary Pokémon only use "digging" in battle, and usually dig out very little soil, because the "energy" paid is not much, so not long after drilling out, the tunnel will collapse back to its original state due to compression failure, while moles and sandshrews pay more "energy" when building their nests, so the compression failure time limit is also longer.
Realizing that Xiaoxia was not praying to the "God of Directionlessness", Guan Liyuan began to follow Xiaoxia's instructions, circling in the cave and moving towards the direction with more humid air...
On the way, he also encountered a large Onix and a Rhyno with two small rocks. It seems that there are many Pokémon in the "Diglett Cave" that like this kind of environment, but Guan Liyuan chose to avoid them. These Pokémon, which are not very aggressive, did not intend to attack Guan Liyuan and Xiaoxia even if they discovered them.
Gradually, Guan Liyuan could clearly feel the air getting moister with every breath, and he couldn't help but have more confidence in Xiaoxia's "water control power" that had not yet awakened...
"The water vapor here... feels very lively! Is there an underground river?" Xiaoxia asked doubtfully.
"It shouldn't be? If there is an underground river, we should hear flowing water... huh? This, this is..."
Guan Liyuan suddenly stopped, causing Xiaoxia to not be able to stop and bump into him directly.
"What are you doing?" Xiaoxia complained.
"Water, water, water..."
"Huh? Is there water ahead?"
"Suicune!"
