Chapter 623 Newly Discovered Relics in China, Trainers Gather! A Secret Chamber and Mysterious Ancient Script!
After the banquet, Ye Yinchuan declined Professor Ji Miaomiao's kind offer of accommodation and, carrying the unique "Chrysanthemum of Time" badge, returned to Kirby Park overnight.
The night is dark.
The park was quiet, with only the chirping of insects and the sound of a gentle breeze.
Ye Yinchuan did not rest immediately, but instead went to the back of the park, to the simulated rock area that was specially created for Rock-type Pokémon.
The newly joined little guy, "Rockhead," is currently spending time with the Dusk Mane Rock Wolf.
At dusk, the mane-like werewolf closed its eyes to rest, like a solitary sculpture, standing quietly atop the rock under the moonlight.
Meanwhile, Yantou, full of energy, was repeatedly banging his hard little head against a smooth rock, making muffled "bang, bang" sounds.
It is mimicking the training methods of the crested dinosaur.
"Yantou".
Ye Yinchuan called out softly.
"Woof!"
Upon hearing its owner's voice, the Shetland Sheepdog immediately stopped training, wagged its tail, and came running over on its short legs, affectionately rubbing against his trouser leg.
Ye Yinchuan squatted down, stroked its fluffy, rock-like head, and a smile appeared in his eyes.
a few days later.
A message released by the official China Pokémon League has ignited the entire Pokémon trainer community.
[Major Discovery! A brand-new ancient site has been unearthed deep within the Kunlun Mountains in China! Its scale and history far exceed expectations!]
The League has issued its highest-level bounty, calling upon all Trainers with Advanced or higher certifications to explore this area!
Anyone who discovers a new Pokémon species, solves unknown mysteries, or makes a significant contribution within the ruins will receive generous rewards from the League!
This news was like a boulder thrown into a calm lake.
The passion of countless trainers was instantly ignited.
Ye Yinchuan also received a special invitation from the Alliance headquarters on his personal communicator.
-
Clearly, in the eyes of the league's top brass, he, the "Kirby Treasure Hunter," is the best candidate to explore unknown relics. "A new relic?"
Ye Yinchuan looked at the information on the screen, a hint of interest flashing in his eyes.
He looked up and saw Snorlax yawning as it slowly sauntered out of its sleeping spot.
"Snorlax, get ready."
Ye Yinchuan said to it with a smile.
"You're coming with me on a long trip this time."
"Click!"
Upon hearing this, Snorlax's eyes lit up instantly. Although Snorlax Paradise was comfortable, following its master meant there was a chance to eat some rare delicacies.
a few days later.
The live stream has started.
Ye Yinchuan's figure was already in front of the camera.
He had changed into a set of outdoor adventure clothes that allowed him to move around easily, with howling winds and snow-capped mountains behind him.
[Here he is! The streamer is back live!]
[This background—Holy crap! Did you come all the way to the Kunlun Mountains, anchor?!]
[I know! It's because of that newly discovered ancient ruin! You're always on the front lines for Pokémon, aren't you?!]
[The popularity of fossil Pokémon has skyrocketed these past few days, and the streamer has gone viral once again!]
The number of viewers in the live stream exceeded one million in just a few minutes.
Ye Yinchuan gave a brief explanation to the camera.
"Family members, as you might have guessed, the place I've come to today is the ancient ruins in the Kunlun Mountains that the Alliance recently announced."
He adjusted the camera to present the spectacular scene behind him to all the viewers in its entirety.
At the foot of the majestic snow-capped mountains, in a vast chasm that seemed to have been cleaved open by a god with a giant axe, stood the entrance to a magnificent ancient building, a sight so breathtaking it was almost unsettling.
It was a massive archway, hundreds of meters high, made of unidentified black boulders.
The archway is carved with countless intricate and ancient totems, exuding an air of mystery and wildness.
The pitch-black entrance, like the gaping maw of a giant beast, was bottomless, as if it wanted to devour everything.
Hundreds of trainers had already gathered in the huge plaza in front of the entrance.
Each of them has a distinct style, but they are all very professional and capable. The Pokémon they accompany are also diverse in form and extraordinary in strength.
The Flying-type Warrior Eagle soared in the air, while on the ground, the burly Mighty and the Golem stood side by side.
Clearly, they are all top-tier players attracted by the league's bounty.
"This is quite a large-scale operation."
Ye Yinchuan looked around and sighed softly.
"The league's rewards are indeed very tempting. The prize money alone is not a small amount, not to mention the resources that money can't buy."
Ye Yinchuan's appearance immediately caused a considerable commotion in the square.
"Look! It's Kirby's Eyeball Collection!"
"Holy crap! He's even more handsome in person than on the livestream!"
"The big shot is here too! This site is definitely not simple!"
Many trainers recognized Ye Yinchuan and gathered around to greet him warmly.
After all, Ye Yinchuan's reputation among Chinese trainers is already at its zenith.
Those mind-blowing live streams are making him a living legend among trainers.
Ye Yinchuan smiled and nodded to everyone, calmly responding to the various greetings.
After a brief exchange, Ye Yinchuan did not linger in the square.
He told his viewers in the live stream, "Family members, according to the preliminary information released by the alliance, this site is a semi-open underground labyrinth."
"The spaces inside are intricate and complex; it's said that without prior preparation of ropes," it's easy to lose your way once you venture deep inside.
As he spoke, he took out a roll of special rope that shimmered with a faint light from his backpack and waved it in front of the camera.
[I've learned something new! This is an essential tool for wilderness exploration!]
[The streamer is so professional! Unlike me, who just brings a backpack full of snacks.]
With so many people going in together, won't a fight break out?
Ye Yinchuan looked at the comments and smiled: "Don't worry, it's actually safer with more people. They're all professional Chinese trainers, all on our side."
"Alright, without further ado, let's go inside."
After saying that, he started walking towards the deep entrance.
Instead of choosing the main road with the most pedestrian traffic, he observed for a moment and then headed towards a relatively secluded side road.
Why didn't the streamer take the main road? It's safer there because there are more people, right?
[What do you know, upstairs? This is called a treasure-hunting intuition! The truly good stuff is always hidden in the most obscure corners!]
Ye Yinchuan offered no explanation.
He just wanted to avoid the crowds and enjoy the adventure in peace and quiet.
As he ventured deeper, the surrounding light grew dimmer and dimmer.
The voices of the other trainers gradually faded away behind them.
The only sounds in the air were his own footsteps and the tense breathing of the viewers in the live broadcast room.
I don't know how much time passed.
Ye Yinchuan stopped in front of a relatively spacious stone chamber.
He switched on his tactical flashlight, the beam sweeping across the walls of the stone chamber.
Soon, he found something embedded in the rock wall in the corner.
Those were some crescent-shaped fossils with spiral patterns.
What is this? A seashell?
[This looks familiar; I feel like I've seen it somewhere before.]
Ye Yinchuan stepped forward, reached out, and gently brushed away the dust from the surface of the fossil.
When that familiar form was fully revealed, a knowing smile appeared on his lips.
"Family, it seems we've found the right place."
His voice sounded exceptionally clear in the empty stone chamber.
"You should know about fossil helmets, right? Such a precious fossil, I never expected it to be in such an obvious place."
"It seems that this site is much older than we thought."
Fossil helmet!
Upon hearing this name, the viewers in the live stream instantly recalled the gill ichthyosaur that Ye Yinchuan created using a "Frankenstein's monster" approach.
[Kabutops! Isn't that a Pokémon from the same era as Omanyte?]
[So this is the home of ancient Pokémon! Could there be any still alive among them?]
[Hey streamer, check around for any other fossils, let's piece together another one!]
Ye Yinchuan looked at these mischievous comments and was both amused and exasperated.
His gaze continued to sweep across the stone chamber.
Sudden.
His gaze settled on a wall directly opposite the entrance.
That wall looked no different from the other rock walls.
However, according to the feedback from the [Insightful Eye], there was a very faint, discordant sense of emptiness in the internal structure of this wall.
"interesting."
Ye Yinchuan's heart stirred, and he slowly walked over.
He reached out and gently tapped on the wall.
"Thump, thump, thump."
The voice was muffled, and there was nothing unusual about it.
What's the streamer doing? Paying respects to a local leader?
[Is there treasure hidden inside the wall? A classic trope from a martial arts novel!]
Ye Yinchuan ignored the teasing comments in the live chat.
He closed his eyes and pressed his palms completely against the cold rock wall.
After a while.
He suddenly opened his eyes and gently pressed his palm against a certain spot on the wall!
Click—
A soft cracking sound rang out.
Where his palm pressed, the hard rock wall dented like a crisp cookie, leaving a shallow pit, with spiderweb-like cracks spreading outwards.
"!!!"
This scene stunned everyone in the live stream!
Holy crap! Breaking a boulder with bare hands?!
[Stop pretending, streamer! You're practically a human Pokémon! This power is outrageous!]
There really is something behind the wall!
Ye Yinchuan withdrew his hand and looked at the hole.
The entrance was small, but you could clearly see that inside was a bottomless, pitch-black passage.
An ancient and profound aura slowly emanated from the cave entrance.
"It seems we've discovered a secret passage."
Ye Yinchuan's face broke into a smile like that of an explorer discovering a new continent.
He secured one end of the "through-the-hole rope" firmly to a large rock in the stone chamber, and then threw the other end into the passage.
After doing all this, he did not go in immediately.
Instead, he took off a Poké Ball from his waist.
"Go forth, Dusk Rock Wolf!"
A flash of red light.
The agile and aloof Twilight Mane Werewolf appeared in the stone chamber.
"Awoo."
As soon as it appeared, it warily looked around, its sharp green eyes finally settling on the dark cave entrance.
"Scouting ahead."
Ye Yinchuan issued the order.
He didn't choose Bosscodora because that guy was too big and wouldn't be able to maneuver properly in such a confined space.
The Dusk Rock Wolf is undoubtedly the best choice.
"Aww!"
The Dusk Rock Werewolf let out a low growl and, without hesitation, plunged into the unknown passage.
A moment later.
In Ye Yinchuan's mind, he heard the Dusk Mane Werewolf's voice confirming that he was safe.
He then addressed the camera, saying, "Family, hold on tight, we're about to set off."
After saying that, he grabbed the rope through the hole, leaped into the mysterious passage.
The inside of the tunnel was much smoother than I had imagined.
Rather than a passageway, it's more like a natural slide spiraling downwards.
Ye Yinchuan glided smoothly down the slope.
A few seconds later, the ground beneath my feet gave way to emptiness.
He landed steadily on the solid ground.
This is a secret chamber that is several times larger, older, and more magnificent than the stone chamber above!
The secret chamber had an extremely high dome, and the surrounding walls were also made of those unknown black boulders.
But in the instant the beam of the flashlight illuminates the wall.
Ye Yinchuan and all the viewers in the live broadcast room were stunned.
On the smooth, mirror-like black wall, countless, densely packed, strange black characters were clearly engraved!
The characters were extremely strange in shape.
Yes, it looks like a closed eye.
Yes, it looks like a curved question mark.
Some resemble a twisted tree branch.
Each of them, like an independent living entity, is combined in a strange yet harmonious way, covering the walls of the entire secret room.
They don't look like they were carved on; rather, they seem to have "grown" out of the stone itself, possessing an indescribable, relief-like three-dimensional quality.
【What is this? Is it alien writing?】
My trypophobia is acting up, it's so depressing!
[Could this be some kind of ancient curse? Run, streamer!]
[Wait a minute, look closely at these symbols, they seem to have an eye, but it's closed?]
The audience was abuzz with discussion, marveling at the sight, their hearts filled with shock and a strange chill.
Ye Yinchuan's pupils suddenly contracted the moment he saw the words.
He stared intently at the black symbols on the wall, which were of various shapes and resembled writing, and his breathing became somewhat rapid.
these things.
Others may not recognize you.
But how could he not recognize him!
This is not written language!
This is a very special and mysterious Pokémon!
Ye Yinchuan slowly raised his hand, his fingertips almost touching the cold reliefs.
His lips moved slightly.
"Family members, these might all be Pokémon!"
[What? Pokémon? You mean, all these densely packed black things are...?]
[No way, I've never seen a Pokémon like this before. The streamer encountered 99% rare creatures right from the start?]
[Haha, another escape room, another unknown Pokémon, so mysterious, I love it!]
