Chapter 595(1/2)
Xia Chen felt that the saying "it's easy to go up the mountain but hard to go down the mountain" was simply not true for Zeraora.
Under the acceleration of gravity and inertia, this guy jumped hundreds of meters each time. In just three or two minutes, Xia Chen and Zeraora, who were still on the top of the mountain one moment, appeared on the top of the mountain in the next second.
The wind comes to the edge of the city.
In terms of speed, Zeraora really didn't brag. It was definitely faster than all the elves in Xia Chen except Guluton and Deoxys in speed form.
The location of the fire this time was relatively deep. After going down the mountain and advancing for more than ten kilometers, they arrived at the "crime scene".
The mountain wind was strong tonight, and the fire spread at an alarming speed. In just a short time, half of the orchard was already on fire.
"Meenas, come out and put out the fire!"
Xia Chen jumped down from Zeraora's arms and touched his waist to summon Menas, but was shocked to find an empty Poké Ball in the familiar position.
"It's broken, Menas and the others are still on the mountain!"
He looked at Zeraora anxiously, "What should I do? Do you know water-based moves?"
Xia Chen had the impression that it didn't have water-type moves, but out of luck, he still asked.
The answer she got was naturally that Zeraora shook her head in denial.
Xia Chen asked hurriedly: "Then how do you usually put out fires?"
At this moment, he couldn't care less about his original plan. The fire was in critical condition, so it was better to put out the fire first.
Zeraora remained silent and answered Xia Chen's question with practical actions.
But when he saw a burst of pure white light suddenly burst out from its fists, Xia Chen was a little confused. This seemed to be... fighting-type energy?
Can fighting-type moves also be used to put out fires?
At the moment of doubt, Zeraora's enhanced fist suddenly hit the ground. For a moment, the ground trembled, and several deep cracks appeared on the ground close to the source of the earthquake!
A simple strengthening punch actually caused an earthquake in Zeraora's hands. It was truly terrifying.
However, this still has nothing to do with putting out fires...
Just as Xia Chen had this thought, the next moment, there was a commotion in the house in the distance.
"earthquake?"
"No, it's on fire. Come on, get up and put out the fire!"
Xia Chen glanced sideways at Zeraora and twitched the corner of his mouth. It turns out that this is such a fire-extinguishing method. It is very hard-core...
…………
Because the distance was close enough, the residents' elves quickly rushed over.
There are many water elves in Alola, and because they run orchards, almost every house in Fenglai City will have one or two water elves.
This one is an armored warrior, not a very strong armored warrior.
The reason why I want to emphasize this point is that the fire at this time is no longer something it can handle.
Even if it tries its best to fire water cannons to extinguish the fire, it can only contain it.
Xia Chen and Zeraora could only watch from the sidelines and could not help at all.
In fact, in addition to water-type moves, if Zeraora knew a move like [Quicksand Hell], it would also be able to help put out fires, but unfortunately not.
If you use your best electric moves, it will add fuel to the fire, which will in turn cause the fire to further intensify.
But it's not a big problem. As long as you hold on for a while, Menas and the others will probably arrive soon.
…………
"It's you again!"
While Xia Chen was waiting for reinforcements, a sharp shout suddenly came from the distance.
Zeraora's body trembled, and she subconsciously wanted to run away. Fortunately, Xia Chen reacted in time and caught it.
"Why are you running away? It's not you who did it. Why do you feel guilty?"
He was very puzzled by Zeraora's confusing behavior.
Zeraora worriedly said: "Ono——(We didn't catch the naughty Thunderbolt, they will definitely regard me as an arsonist again later.)"
Xia Chen smiled slightly and said comfortingly: "Don't worry, I'm here."
Zeraora didn't believe it and said: "Ono-(They will only regard you as an accomplice.)"
"Okay, can you trust me just once?"
Xia Chen smiled and said: "Anyway, your image is at the bottom, and it will definitely improve next."
Zeraora: "..."
Although I was very angry inside, there seemed to be nothing to refute.
Soon, the orchard owner trotted over, followed by a heavy mud draft horse that was quite common in the Alola region.
"The heavy mud pulls the horse, don't let the elf escape, use rocks to block it!"
Xia Chen was speechless for a while, thinking that with the speed of pulling a horse through heavy mud, it would be a bit difficult to undertake the task of pursuit.
This heavy mud draft horse is of mediocre strength and is a common amateur-level elf in the farm.
Xia Chen waved his hand towards Zeraora, who was about to take action, and joked: "Leave it to me, I'm afraid you will hurt it."
As he spoke, he used the power of the waveguide to form a barrier to block the rocks coming from the heavy mud horse.
Zeraora was stunned, this guy actually has the power of waveguide?
The fighting type is Zeraora's most proficient attribute besides the electric type. It naturally also has the power of waveguide, but it is a bit rare in humans.
Over there, the heavy mud horse and the orchard owner were shocked to the point of being stunned——
Is this human-looking guy an elf or a human?
While they were in a daze, Xia Chen quickly shouted: "Hey, don't get excited, there may be some misunderstanding between us."
The orchardist breathed a sigh of relief. He could talk and was a human being.
Since we are human beings, there is nothing to be afraid of.
The tall, bearded man said angrily: "I saw you setting fire with my own eyes, do you still want to deny it? Just wait, I have called the police, and Miss Junsha will be here soon!"
Xia Chen was helpless, "I understand, we won't leave, but please give us a little trust and respect, okay?"
As the saying goes, good people can be bullied. When the orchard owner saw this man whose face could not be seen clearly in the night, he took the initiative to give in and screamed more and more arrogantly.
"Who do you think you are? Why does an arson suspect deserve my respect?"
Xia Chen sighed and whispered to himself: "I originally wanted to get along with you as an ordinary person, but I got this result. Okay, stop pretending, I will show my cards!"
This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading! Zeraora looked aside and cursed, what is this?
Xia Chen coughed lightly, raised his head and said loudly: "I don't know if you have heard of it, but I am Xia Chen, can you give me some face?"
There was silence.
Xia Chen's toes dug into the ground in embarrassment.
Damn it, you finally found an opportunity to show off in front of Zeraora, so you won't fall over, right?
Damn it, Alola is some kind of rural place. If we were in Donghuang Fengyuan...even Carlos Galar wouldn't know about it!
…………
Fortunately, things were a little different from what Xia Chen thought.
The bearded man was indeed stunned for a moment, but it was not because he didn't know Xia Chen, but because he didn't believe that he was.
He laughed loudly and said: "Haha, just you? You are Xia Chen and I am the Alchemy Emperor!"
Although he is not a professional trainer, he is an avid spectator of elf battles, and Dandi is his favorite player.
Of course he knew about Xia Chen, the newly rising star, and had even watched many of his games.
For example, the Dynamax exhibition match with my idol Dan Emperor was really exciting.
Wait, apart from the elves like Xianbu and Guluton, Xia Chen's signature characteristics seem to be superpowers and the power of waveguides. Could it be...
The bearded man's heart skipped a beat and he took a few steps forward to see the young man's face clearly.
Damn, he’s so handsome!
Against the background of the rising firelight, the young man's tall and straight figure became more and more handsome.
The orchard owner, who was so handsome, compared Xia Chen's appearance in his memory, and then discovered...
Damn it, it’s really him!
His original arrogance was gone. He scratched his head in embarrassment and said apologetically: "I'm sorry, Master Xia Chen, I admit that I did speak a little too loudly just now."
The gym leader has a prominent status in society, even if he is not a local gym, he will be respected as the gym leader.
Xia Chen smiled and originally wanted to say "I still like the way you acted unruly just now", but considering that Zeraora was beside him, in order to maintain his glorious image, he changed his words to "It doesn't matter."
