Chapter 545 What Regigigas told me
Looking at the soft soil of the cemetery, Li Bufan suddenly had an inappropriate thought.
This soil looks quite fertile; it seems like we could grow something here.
He crouched down and poked the ground with his finger. The dark brown soil was moist and soft, carrying a faint smell of humus.
Planting something in a place like this might actually allow it to survive.
Thinking this, Li Luochen casually took something out of his pocket.
It's a blue radish—an ice radish.
This is a radish I obtained earlier in the secret realm of Rongcheng University. It is ice blue all over and emits wisps of cold air. It was used to attract the Snowstorm Horse.
Unfortunately, it was just a radish, not a seed.
Otherwise, if you plant it in this soil, it might grow into a patch after a while...
We rested for about fifteen minutes.
Jinshiro was the first to stand up, brushed the dirt off his trousers, and slung his trekking pole over his shoulder: "Let's go."
Pioni took the last swig of water, tightened the lid, stuffed it back into his backpack, and strode after him.
Li Luochen and Katishia also stood up.
The four of them set off on their journey again.
After leaving the snowfield, the journey became much easier.
After passing through the Haiming Cave, a bright and open space suddenly appeared before us.
We've arrived at the frozen sea; the surface is covered by a thick layer of ice.
The ice surface is crisscrossed with cracks, stretching to the horizon like a giant spider web.
The wind blew in from the sea, much colder than inland, and stung my face with tiny ice shards.
Kamishiro walked at the front, his steps steady and firm, his military green overcoat fluttering in the wind.
The operation at sea lasted approximately two hours.
The frozen sea has finally come to an end!
"We've arrived at the Sancha Plain."
Kamishiro put away the map, his tone more relaxed than before: "A little further ahead is the Ruins of Choice."
It took another half hour for the four of them to finally arrive at the site of the Choice.
Jindai stopped, poked his trekking pole into the ground, and wiped the sweat from his forehead.
Li Luochen looked at the building in front of him.
The legacy of the choice was more dilapidated than he had imagined.
The stone pillars were leaning to one side and to the other, and the broken crossbeams were half-buried in the soil.
What should have been the entrance is now just a dark hole, its edges overgrown with moss and vines.
The stone path was broken and fragmented by weeds, making it almost impossible to discern its original course.
It looks like no one has been here for a very long time.
However, even if the opening is exposed, it is impossible to go directly in.
Kamishiro stood before the stone gate, his gaze fixed on the unfathomable darkness, and slowly shook his head.
He had been here more than once, and each time he stopped in front of this stone gate.
Without the triggering conditions, the ruins will not truly open.
Fortunately, his explorations over the years have not been in vain; he had already figured out the conditions for opening the ruins when he left last time.
"Regirock, Regice, Registeel, you three, come out here!"
Kamishiro threw out three Poké Balls at once.
A flash of red light, and the three Regiments Pokémon appeared simultaneously on the open ground in front of the ruins.
Regirock was entirely orange-yellow, with his arms hanging at his sides like giant hammers, silent as a mountain.
Regice was entirely ice-blue, and a chill spread from the soles of his feet, instantly covering the grass beneath his feet with a layer of white frost.
Regischiru's silver-gray metallic body remained motionless, sunlight focusing into a blinding spot on its smooth surface.
The three sacred pillars stood in a row before the Gods, each with a different posture, yet all exuding the same solemn aura.
Pione squatted by the stone door, reached out and touched the patterns covered in moss on the inside of the door frame, blew away the loose dirt, and Okishiro nodded: "It's reacting, the patterns are glowing."
Upon hearing this, Shinji put away the Poké Balls and said to Li Luochen, "These are the trigger conditions. The ruins will only open if all three Regiments are present at the same time. It won't work if even one is missing."
Rumble!
As soon as he finished speaking, a muffled rumble came from behind the stone gate.
The ground trembled slightly, and gravel fell softly from above the door frame.
The patterns on both sides of the stone gate lit up in sequence, first the Regirock symbol, then Regice, and finally Registeel.
You can see that the stone wall emits a faint orange, blue and silver-gray light.
After a while, the stone gate finally opened completely.
The gods retrieved the three sacred pillars, stepped through the stone gate, and didn't look back.
Pione grinned, put on his headlamp, and followed, the beam of light slicing through the darkness.
Li Luochen, along with Katishia, followed in the footsteps of the Gods.
The interior of the ruins is very simple.
There is no maze, no forks in the road, and not even any unnecessary decorations.
Upon entering the stone gate, one is greeted by a spacious underground space with a towering dome and stone walls that flicker in the firelight.
The walls on the left and right sides are in completely different colors.
The left side is golden yellow, and the right side is purplish brown.
In the very center, a stone statue stands silently.
The stone statue was about three people tall, with a grayish-white body, a rounded head, short and thick limbs, and round eyes on its head.
It looks a bit like an unfinished clay doll.
At first glance, it appears quite simple, but upon closer inspection, it possesses a unique charm that is difficult to describe.
Kamishiro stood up, stepped back two paces, and gave Li Luochen the space in front of the stone statue.
"Pioni and I have been here before, but only to this place."
"Once you reach this stone statue, you can't take another step forward."
"The walls were sealed off completely, with no mechanisms or clues to be found. I tried countless times, but I could only get to this point."
Pione stood to the side, arms crossed, his expression under the brim of his helmet much more subdued than usual: "Indeed, Kamishiro and I have tried many methods before, but we've all gotten stuck at this step."
"Young man, I wonder if you have a way."
"It's actually very simple."
Li Luochen squatted down and tapped the ground with his finger.
Kamishiro looked in the direction he was pointing.
The ground around them was inlaid with more than a dozen huge round stone slabs.
"Step on them in order, they will light up, and the corresponding sacred pillars will appear."
Li Luochen stood up, took a step back, and scanned the yellow wall on the left to the purplish-brown wall on the right: "However, if you want both holy pillars to appear together, you will need to step on them together."
"Regichikas told me all of this."
Li Luochen shifted the blame onto Regigigas.
Kamishiro glanced at him, asked no further questions, and walked to the first stone slab on the left, where he stood.
Pioni grinned and strode to the corresponding position on the right, his boots slamming heavily on the stone slab with a dull thud.
"Just follow my instructions."
Li Luochen looked at the light beneath their feet, waited a moment, and then spoke: "Mr. Kamishiro, Zuo San."
As instructed, the god stepped forward, his boots landing on the third stone slab, and a yellow light instantly shone forth.
"Mr. Pione, step back two steps to the right." Pione took a step back, followed closely by a purple light.
"Second from the left."
"Fourth from the right."
"One step to the left, one step back."
"Right three, advance two."
Li Luochen gave instructions one after another, neither too fast nor too slow.
Their movements gradually became more swift and precise, their footsteps echoing throughout the empty hall.
The light spread beneath their feet, yellow and purple intertwining to form an impenetrable net of light, illuminating the entire hall as bright as day.
"Finally, Mr. Kamishiro, step on the left and don't move."
"Mr. Pioneer, step on the fifth one on the right."
The two stepped on at the same time.
With a loud crack, a deep sound came from inside the stone statue. Light surged out from the dot and condensed into two beams in the air, one shooting towards the yellow wall on the left and the other towards the purplish-brown wall on the right.
The light on the walls suddenly intensified, the entire hall shook, and rubble rained down from the dome...
Li Luochen narrowed his eyes.
The big one is coming!
