The Pharaoh of the pyramid, the leader of the exploration zone, and the holder of the three God Pillars.
Kanzaki slowly woke up and saw a demon face with a wide grin. "Kougai!"
"Demon!!" Kanzaki almost fainted from anger.
"Alright, stop messing around." Lu Ye picked up the eyeball that had rolled to the ground and handed it back to Geng Gui.
Kanzaki felt rather strange.
After interacting with Geng Gui for so long, this level of fear had completely disappeared …
"Kougai! (̄ ▽ ̄)/"Geng Gui retracted the eyeball and greeted Kanzaki again.
"So, it's Geng Gui …"
Kanzaki heaved a sigh of relief and scratched his head. His memories gradually returned, and he suddenly asked nervously.
"Where's the King of Portlandia!"
"He's here." Lu Ye handed the ancient-looking stone orb to Kanzaki. "He's been successfully sealed."
Kanzaki widened his eyes. "But, that stone tablet recorded the ancient language …"
Suddenly, he saw the famous mythologist Sirona's figure from the corner of his eye.
Kanzaki instantly understood.
"It wasn't me." Sirona shook his head. "I haven't studied it to that extent yet."
"Then …"
Kanzaki made an "oh" sound. "Museum Master Xiao Gang, who has worked in a museum before?"
"It's Mr. Lu!" Xiaozhi loudly corrected him. "You almost died, Kanzaki-san!"
Kanzaki paused for a moment before his gaze fell upon this young man with an extraordinary aura.
He was so young, yet he was able to study the ancient language to such an extent …
Kanzaki nodded seriously, stood up, and solemnly bowed to Lu Ye. "Mr. Lu, I'll never forget how you saved my life!"
"It's nothing." Lu Ye scratched his cheek.
'If it wasn't for the ancient language, I would have killed you just now …'
Sirona furrowed his eyebrows and asked seriously, "What exactly happened, Kanzaki-san?"
Kanzaki put the three God Pillars back into the pokeball and sighed.
"It's also my fault for being careless. I thought that the king wanted to possess Xiaozhi. I didn't expect that … my own mind would be the one that made the mistake."
"Kanzaki-san, there's no need for you to blame yourself," Xiao Gang spoke in a heavy tone. "You're already one of the best archaeologists in the world."
Kanzaki shook his head and smiled bitterly. "That's precisely why I still need to cultivate."
"However," Kanzaki stated, "I didn't come out empty-handed from this trip to the ruins."
"At the very least, we have found out the truth behind the destruction of the Portland Empire, and …"
Kanzaki paused for a moment as he looked around at the messy interior of the pyramid. He then coughed lightly and said, "I think it would be best if I sent you all outside first!"
Xiao Gang looked at the black fog and said, "Then what should we do with the remnant resentment?"
"I will let the Dark Night Demon Spirit devour …"
"Koujie ~ (̄) ̄)"
Kanzaki glanced at Geng Gui and muttered, "If Mr. Lu, your Geng Gui wants to devour …"
"Kou Jie! Ψ (`̄ ́) ψ "(I'm going to eat!)
Lu Ye had a complex expression as he looked at Geng Gui, who was hovering in midair and eating heartily.
"Really? You won't get a stomachache?"
"These spiritual bodies are the best supplements for the Ghost Element."
Kanzaki crossed his arms as his lips arced upwards. "Especially curse-type techniques, their effects will be greatly improved."
Lu Ye paused in surprise for a moment. "Does that include the Song of Perdition?"
"The Song of Perdition, Curses, Same Fate … all of them are included."
Lu Ye's breathing paused as a long-awaited feeling of suffocation surged into his chest.
'I never expected this.
You actually managed to trick me here! '
Lu Ye asked, "Do you have distant relatives called Raishi and Shinji?"
Kanzaki: "Ah? Why do you say that? "
"It's nothing." Lu Ye coughed softly. 'I just feel that you two look too similar.
'I, Mr. Lu, will remember this grudge for now!'
"Kou Jie ~! (* ⊙ ~ ⊙) "Geng Gui grabbed the black mist in midair and stuffed it into his mouth as if he was eating cotton candy.
As if he didn't have enough fun eating like this, the Dark Night Demon Spirit appeared behind Geng Gui's back.
The three-meter-tall mini Susanoo reached out with its thick arms and kneaded the black mist into a large ball of 'cotton candy' before happily stuffing it into Geng Gui's mouth.
"Kou Jie! (≧) (*) (Delicious!)
Lu Ye's mouth twitched.
'Illusion. I must have been hit by Geng Gui's illusion!'
After the black mist inside the pyramid was completely destroyed.
"Kou Jie!" Geng Gui, who still hadn't had his fill, looked at the sealing stone orb in Kanzaki's hand.
The sealing stone orb seemed to have sensed danger as it started trembling violently.
"You can't eat this … You'll get diarrhea if you eat it," Lu Ye advised.
"Kou Jie ~ (. • ́) • *.)"
Kanzaki also wiped the cold sweat off his forehead as he placed something on the sealing stone orb and spoke in a low voice.
"After all, this is a punishment from the Phoenix King … Just let him continue being imprisoned in the darkness."
Lu Ye nodded after some thought.
Tantalus, who had offended the Greek Gods, also received a punishment worse than death.
But then again … the King of Portlandia could be sealed by a pokeball.
'Then, can I also throw a master pokeball at Xiaozhi?'
Lu Ye began to seriously consider this …
…
With Kanzaki sending them off, the group left the pyramid.
Under the clear blue sky, the blonde beauty stared at the handsome side profile next to her and was slightly lost in thought.
"What are you looking at?"
Sirona smiled faintly and said, "I'm looking at you."
Mr. Lu's face reddened as he glared at her. "Then I'm looking back too!"
The two of them were competing to see who would blink first.
The single Xiao Gang narrowed his eyes and looked up at the sky.
'I shouldn't have gone on this trip today …'
"Kanzaki-san."
Xiaozhi sent a challenge request to Kanzaki.
"I'd like to challenge you to obtain the last District Token!"
"No problem."
Kanzaki crossed his arms and nodded solemnly. "Let's rest for a while. The next time we meet, let's have a showdown!"
"Thank you, Kanzaki-san!"
Xiaozhi smiled excitedly and raised its head subconsciously.
A beautiful rainbow streaked across the clear sky amidst the layers of clouds. The tail feathers of a gigantic bird glowed with a myriad of colors. Everything paled in comparison to the rainbow. Or, perhaps the rainbow was the color of life.
"That's … the legendary Phoenix King, right?" Sirona was the first to look up.
"You've lost."
"Childish!"
Lu Ye looked up at the sky and saw the rainbow disappear in an instant. Lothom's beeping sounded in his ears.
"Beep beep! The Phoenix King is a legendary Pokémon. It's said that it only appears in front of righteous trainers. There are very few witnesses. Lothom ~ "
A righteous trainer.
Mr. Lu raised his eyebrows.
'No wonder the Phoenix King ran away so quickly after seeing me …'
'But … it seems like the' photographer 'is here to check on Portland's King.'
Even if Lu Ye didn't come, the Phoenix King would personally come.
Or … Lu Ye looked at Xiaozhi.
'The last District Token … Perhaps the Phoenix King is here to cheer on this' idiot. '
"Okay!"
Xiaozhi retracted his gaze and suddenly shouted. He clenched his fists and looked at Pikachu with a burning gaze.
"Let's return to the Elf Center first, then challenge Kanzaki-san!"
"Pikachu!"
The serious-looking Kanzaki revealed a rare smile as he turned to Lu Ye.
"Mr. Lu, in order to repay you for saving my life, I've prepared a gift."
Lu Ye's expression changed slightly.
Kanzaki reached into his pocket and took out a beautiful, dim feather.
At that moment, everyone present widened their eyes in surprise.
[Rainbow Feather (Dim): The Rainbow Feather that has lost the Phoenix King's favor still emits a breathtakingly beautiful luster. (Revival Token + 1!)]
"The reason why the Portland Kingdom was destroyed was because of this," Kanzaki said slowly.
Kanzaki slowly explained, "It's precisely because this king has the rainbow-colored feather that he shouldn't have."
"Thousands of years later, this rainbow feather also lost its power and became a symbol."
Kanzaki handed the Rainbow Feather to Lu Ye. "I discovered these secrets in the ruins, as well as this Rainbow Feather.
Now, I'm handing it over to you, Mr. Lu! "
It was said that the Rainbow Feather would regain its luster when it met a pure and honest trainer.
Of course, this was only a legend.
Kanzaki believed that this wise and kind Mr. Lu would definitely be a trustworthy trainer.
After today's incident, Kanzaki realized that he still needed to continue cultivating.
This was also the reason why he took out the Rainbow Feather.
"The Rainbow Feather!" Xiaozhi's eyes widened.
"Xiaozhi, you know about it as well?" Xiao Gang asked curiously.
"Hehe, I was lucky enough to find one when I left Really New Village."
Xiaozhi scratched his head and then said seriously, "You can't give the Rainbow Feather to someone with an evil heart … This is what an elder told me!"
Kanzaki nodded in agreement and handed the Rainbow Feather to Lu Ye.
"Take it, Mr. Lu. With you here, I'm sure that the Rainbow Feather's power will be put to good use."
A drop of cold sweat appeared on Lu Ye's forehead.
It's not that I don't want to take it.
The problem is that if I take the Rainbow Feather, Machado will jump out and challenge me to a duel. What should I do then?
If someone with an evil heart obtains the Rainbow Feather, they will incur the Phoenix King's hatred and destruction!
"Kanzaki-san," Lu Ye said righteously, "I didn't save you to obtain your gratitude.
Everyone has the right to kill evil. Wouldn't it be better to leave the Rainbow Feather to the fated person? "
Kanzaki froze for a moment.
He was defeated by the King of Portlandia because of his self-satisfaction, and he no longer had the face to continue holding onto the Rainbow Feather.
Sirona and Xiao Gang also didn't seem to have any intention of taking the Rainbow Feather.
Kanzaki looked at Xiaozhi again.
"I already have one." Xiaozhi scratched his head. A light bulb suddenly lit up on his forehead as he took the Rainbow Feather from Kanzaki's hand.
In an instant, the dim Rainbow Feather glowed faintly before falling silent again.
Even Old Zhi couldn't awaken it?
Lu Ye paused for a moment before he realized what was going on.
This dim rainbow-colored feather was indeed more like a symbol.
"Mr. Lu!" Xiaozhi shook the feather and said with a smile, "See, there's no problem. You don't need to be nervous!"
Xiaozhi only thought that Mr. Lu was as steady as ever, which was why he was so nervous when facing the Rainbow Feather.
"Here, Mr. Lu, the Rainbow Feather will bring you good luck!"
Xiaozhi stuffed the Rainbow Feather into Lu Ye's hand. "Back then, Pikachu and I relied on this to escape a calamity!"
"Pikachu!"
Lu Ye's expression changed slightly. He tried to let go of the Rainbow Feather, but he discovered that Xiaozhi's arm strength was too astonishing.
When the Rainbow Feather entered his hand, he felt a cool sensation.
The already dim Rainbow Feather seemed to have been switched from "smart" to "energy-saving," and its brightness was lowered by another level.
Lu Ye:???
It lit up in Old Zhi's hand, but went out in my hand!?
Fortunately … Lu Ye looked around and didn't see anything strange.
The Rainbow Feather in his hand was glowing faintly.
"It seems," Sirona said with a smile, "that the Rainbow Feather has also acknowledged you."
"See, I told you!" Xiaozhi wiped his nose and said with a smile, "This is a symbol of good luck!"
There was nothing wrong with what he said …
Lu Ye lowered his head and looked at the Rainbow Feather in his hand.
It was as if he was looking at a ticking time bomb.
Suddenly, the Rainbow Feather seemed to be a little irritated, and its brightness began to flicker again.
Lu Ye hurriedly injected the power of the Wave Guide. In the dense blue light, the Rainbow Feather once again glowed with a beautiful luster.
Good heavens, this Rainbow Feather was still arrogant!
Lu Ye's mood was complicated.
He suddenly realized that the power of the Wave Guide was indeed a practical skill.
Why not … try injecting the power of the Wave Guide into another target next time?
Seeing that the Rainbow Feather was no longer moving.
Lu Ye carefully put the dim Rainbow Feather into his arms.
Last time at the Quartz Convention, Lu Ye had already taken a tail feather of the Flame Bird and given it to Wind Speed Dog to wear.
It was said that it could enhance its flame and vitality.
This time, the new Rainbow Feather … Lu Ye hadn't figured out what to do with it yet.
"In short …"
Lu Ye thought with embarrassment,
"If I give it a shot of the power of the Wave Guide every day, it shouldn't turn black … right?"
…
After Lu Ye and Sirona said goodbye to Kanzaki.
The trip to the ruins had officially come to an end.
Other than bringing the trio back, Mr. Lu had also successfully saved the situation.
After Geng Gui devoured the King of Portlandia's resentment for thousands of years …
His stomach was a little uncomfortable, so he walked at the back of the team.
Lu Ye glanced at him. "I told you not to be greedy."
"Mouth Jie!" Geng Gui snorted.
I've become stronger again and again!
Other than that, there was a Rainbow Feather from inside the ruins.
Although it was in a 'dim' state.
But if he wanted to use it, he could find Xiaozhi to recharge it, and it should be able to be used as a resurrection token.
In a sense.
Tortoise's steady personality was once again passed on to Mr. Lu …
Sirona walked beside Lu Ye, crossing one arm and elegantly supporting her chin with the other hand. Her blonde hair fell to her waist as she fell into deep thought.
It just so happened that her recent research involved the field of ancient languages.
She might as well not ask Doctor Yamanashi …
Sirona turned to Lu Ye and pulled up her blonde hair that covered her cheek. A faint smile appeared on her fair face.
"I have something to trouble you with!"
