Chapter 196 The Rogue Lightning Bird

Well, now it's time to get back to business.

Moltres' eyes fell on Growlithe, who was protected from the lava by him and was using all his strength to absorb the ubiquitous fire and rock energy in the lava. He was full of worries in his heart, but he didn't show his emotions to distract Growlithe.

Moltres carefully combed the energy flowing in the lava, and after making it less violent, he adjusted it to a level that Growlithe could bear but not easy.

Watching Growlithe gritting his teeth and constantly absorbing energy that he had never touched before, Moltres estimated that this method should work.

In fact, some Fire Stones often appear near the other craters where it lives.

When resting in the lava sea, in order to pass the time, Moltres often silently peeked at those wild Pokémon and humans who tried their best for Fire Stones, and then let Pokémon complete evolution under the effect of Fire Stones.

It can understand why Fire Stones can bring evolution to some Pokémon, and the principle is also very simple.

The Fire Stone contains a very pure fire energy. Through the impact of energy, the potential of the Pokémon itself is released, and evolution naturally comes as promised.

Now all it has to do is replace the Fire Stone with more suitable, purer and higher-level magma energy to help it complete a more perfect and superior evolution.

Since it is the eldest son recognized by Moltres, everything must be given the best!

This is what Moltres thinks.

But how much magma energy can be absorbed and whether it can complete the qualitative change depends on the Growlithe itself. In the final analysis, it can only assist on the side.

It is not the same clan as the legendary God of Fire, and does not have such magical power.

At the edge of the volcanic island, Luo Mu sat on a huge rock, looking down at the Zapdos lying in the huge pit.

"I know you are awake, no need to pretend, let's talk."

Zapdos did not move.

"Let me think about what to do with you?"

Luo Mu raised his eyebrows, stood up and walked towards the pit where Zapdos lay dead. Swampert followed him dutifully as a guard, alerting Zapdos for sudden attacks.

"Now you are probably wondering why Swampert and I would target you, right?"

"First of all, I want to make one thing clear. From your appearance, you must be here to cause trouble for Moltres, but you know, Moltres has been captured by me now and is considered my Pokémon."

Zapdos: !!! !!!

Zapdos didn't even pretend this time, and raised its head with its wings on the ground in shock.

What a joke, how could Moltres, with its violent temper and its nature of treating most ordinary Pokémon as ants, be captured by humans?

Zapdos knew the temperament of Moltres very well, because it was the same for itself.

Even if they were defeated, their hearts would never give in. Anyway, they had plenty of time, and it was still uncertain who would be stronger and who would be weaker after a few decades.

With such superior conditions, they are always full of rejection of being conquered. Things change over time. You are strong now, but when you are old, it depends on whether they will do anything to you.

This human and Swampert are strong, but if Moltres can be conquered, Zapdos will not dare to go to the power plant to beg for money in recent years.

Seeing Zapdos's unbelievable look, Luo Mu laughed and said, "Whether you believe it or not, Moltres is indeed my partner. This time he just came here temporarily to do something."

"You have been defeated, and I am afraid you don't have much strength left. Judging from your current state, the Poké Ball can definitely conquer you. Do you have anything to say about this?"

Zapdos was stunned and shook his head frantically.

No, I haven't been so idle yet. I don't want to be conquered or anything like that! !

The biggest difference between Zapdos and Moltres is that Moltres can absorb energy by staying in the seldom-visited volcanic magma sea, while Zapdos has to look for naturally formed lightning, or go directly to human power plants to eat a free meal.

Having been used to eating free meals, Zapdos has learned some of the essence of a rogue.

Seeing that Zapdos was about to throw a tantrum, Luo Mu didn't intend to embarrass it too much, since it had been beaten up by Swampert anyway.

So, he proposed a plan: "Let's do this, I'll let you go for now, but you owe me a favor in return. If I need your help in the future, you have to come and help."

Luo Mu had thought about it. If a large amount of electricity is needed at a certain time during the construction of the farm in the future, he would temporarily pull this Zapdos to work as a laborer. Although its lightning power is far inferior to that of Roentgen Cat, the amount is large. Anyway, Luo Mu is reluctant to exploit Roentgen Cat.

Zapdos also knows that there is no room for it to bargain now. Isn't it just a promise to help? Can it be exhausted to death?

Anyway, it must not be a fight. That Swampert is much stronger than him, so it has no chance to fight.

So, under the witness of Swampert, Luo Mu and Zapdos reached an agreement and plucked a tingling feather from it as a token of love.

Zapdos paused for a while, and after regaining the strength to ensure that it would not crash midway, Zapdos came domineeringly, returned in embarrassment, and was forced to sign a one-time contract.

Watching Zapdos fleeing away from the volcanic island and planning to return to its Thunder Cloud Island to recuperate, Luo Mu touched his chin and did not mention going to the neighboring Snow Peak Island.

After all, before Zapdos left, he mentioned that Articuno was not on Snow Peak Island at all in the recent period, and it was likely that he would be empty-handed if he went there, so it would be better to return to the crater and wait for the transformation of Growlithe.

Swampert carried Luo Mu and just climbed half of the mountain road. Suddenly, the concentration of fire energy in the air increased rapidly, and there was also a lot of rock energy mixed in it.

A faint smell of sulfur spread from the crater, and a loud roar that seemed to shake the clouds above rushed straight into the sky.

Luo Mu suddenly realized something and quickly looked up at the sky.

Moltres soared into the sky, covered in magma and fire. With a flap of its wings, it easily shook off the fire that stuck to its side. Its fiercely burning wings were as dazzling as sunlight.

But Luo Mu's attention was not on Moltres at the moment. After that loud roar, something broke through the magma sea and jumped onto the rock layer, taking vigorous and heavy steps, rushing straight towards his position.

The opponent ran very fast. In a few breaths, a rolling heat wave swept over, and a Pokémon with a majestic temperament and extremely agile posture rushed from the crater to Luo Mu.

Not caring about the heat wave that was coming, Luo Mu's eyes widened, and after seeing the person coming clearly, he said in surprise: "Windspeed Dog!!!"
