Chapter 189: Successfully Tricked
Appearing suddenly before Bai Feng were a Togekiss and a Natu. Just as Bai Feng was stunned upon seeing them, they were also startled by Bai Feng's unexpected intrusion.
Why was there a Human in their Home?
Bai Feng snapped back to reality and was about to use Teleport to escape, but the next second he couldn't move. It was the Natu opposite him that had frozen him.
Very strong, very strong, impossibly strong!
The moment Natu's Psychic Power acted on Bai Feng, Bai Feng realized this.
"Uh, hello there!" Bai Feng braced himself and greeted the two Pokémon before him.
At this moment, he finally knew where the Togepi Egg that Xiao Zhi would pick up in the future came from.
It should be the child of these two Pokémon!
Natu said something to Togekiss, and Togekiss nodded at it. Then, it flapped its Wings and flew away, heading towards the Depths of the Cave.
Bai Feng thought to himself, 'This is bad.' Could that Fruit Tree, Pond Water, and Dragonite Skeleton all belong to these two Pokémon?
"Human, where did you come from?" A Voice echoed in Bai Feng's mind.
It was the Telepathy of a Psychic-type Pokemon.
Natu had already sensed the presence of Psychic Power from Bai Feng, so it guessed that Bai Feng could also use Teleport like it.
"I just stumbled in here by mistake. I didn't do anything. Can you let me leave?"
However, as soon as Bai Feng finished speaking, Togekiss flew back in a panic. It chattered wildly to Natu, and Natu's Expression instantly changed.
Bai Feng, of course, also understood what Togekiss said. It had indeed gone to check the Situation in the Depths of the Cave.
"Human! Where did you put the Dragonite Skeleton and the Yue Bamboo Fruit Tree!"
Natu's Tone was no longer gentle; the look in its eyes seemed to want to devour him alive.
"I don't know anything about a Dragonite Skeleton, and I don't know anything about a Fruit Tree!" Bai Feng pretended to be foolish. "Did you get it wrong? It has nothing to do with me. I really just stumbled in here."
"Human, don't try to lie in front of me. I am a Psychic-type Pokémon and can sense the Variation in Human Emotion. Unless you are confident you can completely conceal your emotional fluctuations, don't Challenge my patience," Natu said angrily.
Tsk~ Psychic-type Pokémon are troublesome!
Bai Feng put on a flexible Smile. "Oh dear, you two, I didn't know those Stuff belonged to you before. Now the Stuff has already been sent away by me. What do you say we do?"
"Wuuu~ Wuuu~" Stop talking nonsense, hand over the Stuff quickly, or we won't be polite to you!
Togekiss threatened Bai Feng.
"It's really not with me. If you don't believe me, you can search me," Bai Feng continued to play dumb.
In fact, Natu had already scanned Bai Feng's entire body with its Mental Power and indeed found nothing suspicious.
"Where did you put the Stuff? We'll go with you to get it," Natu said, suppressing its anger.
Bai Feng: ...
It seems these two Pokémon are not easy to trick. If he doesn't hand over the Stuff today, he probably won't be able to leave.
"Sigh~" Bai Feng sighed deeply. "Fine, fine. Let go of me first, and I'll take you to see the Stuff."
Natu hesitated for a moment before slowly withdrawing the Mental Power suppressing Bai Feng. However, it did not relax its guard. As long as Bai Feng dared to make the slightest rash move, it would immediately restrain him with Psychic Power.
In the astonished gaze of the two Pokémon, Bai Feng opened the Entrance to the Distortion World.
"Look, your Stuff is inside," Bai Feng said, pointing at the Blue Vortex before him to Natu and Togekiss.
"What is this? You're not trying to trick us, are you?" Togekiss looked at Bai Feng with a suspicious Expression.
"What do you think?" Bai Feng felt this Togekiss was a bit simple-minded. 'Can't your husband tell if I'm lying?'
Natu took a deep look at Bai Feng, then said to Togekiss, "Let's go in." After speaking, it plunged into the Vortex.
Togekiss followed its husband's footsteps into the Vortex.
Bai Feng followed behind them.
The moment they entered the Distortion World, Togekiss was stunned by the scene before its eyes, especially the incredibly large Pecha Berry Tree.
"What in the World is this Place?"
Natu also looked at Bai Feng with a puzzled gaze.
"Don't understand now, do you?" Bai Feng's eyes darted around. "Have you heard of Giratina?"
"Giratina?"
Natu and Togekiss simultaneously asked in confusion. Just hearing the Name, they felt a sense of majestic presence pressing down on their hearts.
"That's right, Giratina. It's the Legendary master of the Distortion World. Do you know the Distortion World? This Dimension is a corner of the Distortion World, and Giratina gave it to me!"
Bai Feng said, mixing truth and falsehood.
"Really?" Togekiss's eyes were full of suspicion.
Natu's eyes, however, were full of doubt, because it sensed that this Human... didn't seem to be lying. Did he really have such a great background? He even knew the Legendary master of the Distortion World?
It had heard of the Distortion World's Name but didn't know that its master was called Giratina, yet this Human knew.
"Quickly take us to see the Dragonite Skeleton and the Yue Bamboo Fruit Tree!" Natu urged.
"Alright, alright," Bai Feng readily agreed.
When they arrived at the Place where Bai Feng had placed the Dragonite Skeleton and the Yue Bamboo Fruit Tree, Natu and Togekiss happened to see Dragonair swimming freely in the Pond. It even secretly licked the Dragon Orb.
Bai Feng instantly felt awkward.
Dragonair, do you have to be so embarrassing? Even if you want to lick it, do it secretly. You don't need to do it in front of everyone.
(//Д//) Dragonair: You didn't say you were bringing other Pokémon!
"Ha... haha..." Bai Feng laughed awkwardly. "My Dragonair is just playing."
The Water and the Dragon Orb contained rich Dragon-type Energy, which was very beneficial for Dragonair's growth. It was no wonder it would act like this.
"Look, this Tree has already been planted. Moving it back and forth will definitely cause irreversible damage to it. Are you Sure you want to take it away?" Bai Feng said with a troubled Expression.
Hearing Bai Feng's words, Natu and Togekiss couldn't help but fall silent. Although Bai Feng's words were annoying, the Reason was indeed valid.
"And this Dragonite Skeleton, if it's moved frequently, it will definitely suffer significant damage, right?" Bai Feng continued.
Togekiss was about to explode with anger. "It's all your fault, Human! If you hadn't stolen the Dragonite Skeleton and the Fruit Tree..."
Saying this, Togekiss was about to attack Bai Feng, but fortunately, Natu stopped it, which scared Bai Feng into a cold sweat.
He couldn't withstand a single blow from Togekiss.
It's no wonder Togekiss was angry. This Dragonite was its Ancestor. Their clan had guarded the Dragonite Ancestor's Skeleton for generations, and now such a thing had happened in its hands. How could it not be angry!
Don't question how a Dragonite could be the Ancestor of a Togekiss. You can't explain Pokémon Matters.
Dragonite's Egg Group includes Water 1 and Dragon. Togekiss's Egg Group includes Flying and Fairy.
So, as long as Dragonite's partner's Egg Group includes any of these four combinations: Water 1 - Flying, Water 1 - Fairy, Dragon - Flying, or Dragon - Fairy, it is possible to produce offspring like Togekiss, even if Togekiss's Type is effective against Dragonite.
Of course, Pokémon that simultaneously possess the Dragon and Fairy Egg Groups have not yet been discovered.
The actual Situation might be even more complex, because you don't know how many generations separate Dragonite and Togekiss.
Since the Underground Cave contains Ancient Fossil Pokémon like Kabuto, Omanyte, Kabutops, Omastar, and Aerodactyl, it indicates that the era when Dragonite lived is already very distant.
"Human, tell us how to Solve this Matter now."
Natu's Emotion had always been relatively stable. Even knowing that the Matter was irreversible, its first thought was how to Solve it, not throwing a Temper like its wife.
"How about... this? You two follow me from now on," Bai Feng said shamelessly.
He had already decided to start the Pokémon Storage Service. It was foreseeable that many excellent Pokémon would be added to his Home in the future. At this time, he would need one or two powerful Pokémon to hold down the fort.
The Natu and Togekiss before him were just suitable.
He failed to trick the Thousand-Year Gastly before, but now Natu and Togekiss had a handle on him. He had to seize the Opportunity and climb up the pole.
There wouldn't be another chance like this.
"You're dreaming!" Hearing Bai Feng's words, Togekiss was furious.
Bai Feng said, "What's so bad about following me? Look, I have so many high-grade Berries. You can eat as much as you want. Following me, you can also come out and play whenever you want. Isn't that more comfortable and Free than staying in that dark Underground Cave all the Time?
Every Time you enter there, you have to sneak around, right? Are you often worried about being discovered, and thus the Underground Cave being discovered?
If you follow me, you won't have to worry about any of this! The Dragonite Skeleton and the Fruit Tree are hidden in this Dimension of mine, who can find them?
Besides... what if you have children in the future? Do you want your children to live in that dark Place without sunlight like you? Living a life of sneaking around without Freedom like you?
..."
Bai Feng continuously listed the Benefits of following him to the two Pokémon, successfully causing them to fall silent.
Although Bai Feng's words had the suspicion of tricking them, it must be said that what he said was very realistic.
Putting everything else aside, Natu absolutely did not want its children to live the same life as itself.
Natu was different from Togekiss. It didn't guard the Dragonite Skeleton from the beginning; the Dragonite Skeleton originally had nothing to do with it.
It was only after being with Togekiss that it accompanied Togekiss in guarding the Underground Cave.
It deeply loved Togekiss, so it was willing to sacrifice its Freedom and light for Togekiss, but what about its children?
After a long silence, Natu was the first to reply to Bai Feng.
"Okay, I am willing to follow you!"
Togekiss looked at Natu in disbelief.
Seeing this, Natu pulled Togekiss aside and said something to it. Although Togekiss still looked unwilling when it returned, it eventually reluctantly agreed to follow Bai Feng.
Receiving the two Pokémon's reply, Bai Feng was overjoyed. 'I truly am a little Genius!'
Taking out two Poké Balls and handing them to Natu and Togekiss, Bai Feng said, "Natu, Togekiss, please take good care of me from now on!"
Natu readily entered the Poké Ball, while Togekiss hesitated for a moment before angrily hitting the Button on the Poké Ball with its Wing.
Then Bai Feng released the two Pokémon again. "You two will live in the Distortion World from now on. If you want to go out, you can tell me anytime. I come in here often."
Natu nodded, while Togekiss just kept a straight face and didn't speak.
Bai Feng then asked the two Pokémon about the handling of the Underground Cave and the Fossil Pokémon inside. They told Bai Feng that he could do as he pleased.
Since they had already left the Underground Cave, whatever happened to the Underground Cave in the future had nothing to do with them.
As for those Fossil Pokémon, Natu and Togekiss cared even less.
Those Pokémon usually slept in the Underground Cave. If Bai Feng hadn't suddenly intruded and awakened them, Natu and Togekiss would not have had any interaction with them at all.
Getting the reply from the two Pokémon, Bai Feng was completely relieved. This way, he could proceed with his original Plan and tell Professor Oak about the News here.
Using Teleport to exit the Underground Cave, Bai Feng immediately called Professor Oak on the Phone.
"What?! What you said is true? There really are those kinds of Fossil Pokémon you mentioned?" Professor Oak's shouting Voice came from the other end of the Phone.
"Of course it's true. It's in Fool's Valley," Bai Feng replied.
"Okay, wait there. I'll be right over!" Professor Oak hung up the Phone in a hurry.
Professor Oak arrived at Fool's Valley riding his Dragonite. Bai Feng only waited for a little over an Hour, showing how anxious he was.
"Quick, quickly take me to see the Fossil Pokémon!" Getting off Dragonite's back, Professor Oak impatiently grabbed Bai Feng and said. At this moment, his Hair was messy, and his clothes were disheveled, completely lacking his usual demeanor.
"Those Pokémon aren't going anywhere. Take a breath first," Bai Feng said helplessly.
"Take a breath? I could die right now!" Professor Oak said grumpily.
"Alright, alright, I'll take you there now." Bai Feng shook his head helplessly.
Their figures flashed, and along with the Dragonite beside them, they disappeared from the spot. When they reappeared, they were already inside the Underground Cave.
At this Time, the Pokémon that had been put to sleep by Primarina's Singing Voice had all woken up, but in front of Professor Oak's Dragonite, they had no room to be unruly. With one Thunderbolt from Dragonite, they would all be foaming at the mouth.
"They really are Fossil Pokémon, Kabutops, Omanyte, Omastar..." Professor Oak held a Flashlight, shining it around and speaking incoherently.
