"Dr... Doctor Fang Yuan, wait a second!!"
By this time, Fang Yuan had already made preparations to unseal the other three god pillars with the Electric God Pillar and Dragon God Pillar.
He was in a good mood now, as the knowledge that this was a Super Ancient Civilization Ruins had once again stirred the spirit of research within him.
He hoped to find something next... That way, when he returned to the original timeline, revisiting this moment would be twice as delightful!
However, just as Fang Yuan was about to set off, President Wen suddenly called out to him.
"What is it, President Wen?" Fang Yuan asked.
Everyone had already been assigned their tasks a moment ago.
Fu Hei and Master Qiao Jing were to accompany Fang Yuan to lift the seals on the remaining God Pillars and continue their PY.
President Wen, on the other hand, was heading to the Su Province Association to coordinate some work.
Now that the God Pillars were theoretically no longer a threat, all the combat plans previously devised by the Trainer Association could be scrapped.
Also, new arrangements must be made for the whereabouts of the God Pillars.
Such matters required the decision-making of important figures like President Wen.
"It's new intelligence from the Su Province Association."
"This new intelligence... I think it's necessary to tell you first."
President Wen's expression was grave.
If he had received this intelligence before listening to Fang Yuan's account of the history of the Polcrandis Empire, he might not have thought much of it.
But now, having heard Fang Yuan's narrative about the Polcrandis Empire history, the new intelligence made President Wen's thoughts grow heavy.
Ever since the Electric God Pillar and Dragon God Pillar had been unsealed from the Underground Remains, the Professional Trainer Team from the Su Province Association had been exploring this new relic site.
Unlike the ruins that had sealed the Rock God Column, Ice Column, and Steel Column, the ones that sealed the Electric God Pillar and Dragon God Pillar were underground and required the activation of mechanisms to enter, which is why the Su Province Association had not discovered them before.
While Fang Yuan and the others were communicating with the Electric God Pillar, the Professional Trainer Team from the Su Province Association, unaware of the new situation here, were still exploring the site, seeking methods related to the seals of the Electric God Pillar and Dragon God Pillar.
It must be said, this relic site was vast.
The place that sealed the Electric God Pillar and Dragon God Pillar could only be considered a gateway.
After the Scholars of the Mysterious Domain from the Trainer Association deciphered the mechanisms and entered, they discovered that within the relic site lay an entirely different world.
The Electric God Pillar and Dragon God Pillar seemed like mere guardians at the entrance of this relic site.
Deeper inside, the walls were engraved with numerous images and ancient texts of ancient spirits, along with many stone door rooms with unknown methods of entry—mysterious indeed.
"Could it be related to the Polcrandis Empire you just mentioned?"
After relayeding the Professional Trainer Team's exploration news from the Su Province Association to Fang Yuan, President Wen awaited Fang Yuan's opinion.
Anyway, he believed that this place was definitely related to the Polcrandis Empire that Fang Yuan had spoken of, and it certainly contained great secrets.
"Hmm."
"Tell the trainers there not to act rashly," Fang Yuan said with a serious expression after hearing the news.
Underground, stone doors, it sounded like a match, very similar to the one in the anime.
Damn, it couldn't really be the relic from the anime, could we really encounter the Stone Orb??
"I didn't cover the entire history of the empire earlier, in any case, inside that relic, there is likely something that poses a greater threat than Guardian God level spirits, we should go there first," Fang Yuan quickly said.
If the spirit of Polcrandis was indeed there, and it managed to successfully possess the soul of a Professional Trainer, that would spell big trouble.
"Alright."
At Fang Yuan's words and seeing his stern expression, President Wen, Fu Hei, and Master Qiao Jing all nodded in succession.
As for the Electric God Pillar and Dragon God Pillar, they were scratching their heads—first get our other three brothers out...
Wait a second, did you just mention the Polcrandis Empire ruins?
"Uh oh!!!"
"Roar!!"
Let's flatten the ruins first, GOGOGO!!
......
Ten minutes later.
Outside the underground relic site.
All the trainers exploring the place had been called out.
And per the Association's orders, they had sealed off the area tightly, not even a fly could enter or escape.
"Are you sure you'll be okay going in alone?" President Wen and others asked worriedly, looking at Fang Yuan.
"Based on the information from the trainers that have just come out, this relic site is very likely to be the one that seals the soul of the Polcrandis king."
Fang Yuan also shared the rest of the story about Ho-Oh annihilating the Polcrandis Empire with the crowd.
After arriving here, the first thing Fang Yuan did was to inquire from the departing trainers about the specific layout inside the relic site. Confirming that there were stone statues of elves within the relic, Fang Yuan became even more convinced it was the same one.
The soul of the Polcrandis king and the Stone Orb that sealed the soul were almost certainly inside this relic.
Immediately after checking that the Trainers were not possessed by souls, he planned to go in alone to take a look.
"If Master Kong Hai were here, as a Psychic, he could explore with me, but other ordinary people would easily be controlled by the Polcrandis King with Super Ancient Power, so it's safer for me to go alone," Fang Yuan said with some concern.
Although it seemed that Pokemon could also counteract possession by souls, Fang Yuan still thought it wiser to go alone.
"Please be careful." Seeing Fang Yuan say this, President Wen and others could not say much else. They had no understanding of the Polcrandis civilization; following him may just hold Fang Yuan back.
Therefore, it was better to let Fang Yuan go alone. As for whether Fang Yuan would encounter danger... they believed that Fang Yuan's odds of survival were definitely greater than theirs in the same danger.
They had witnessed Fang Yuan's strength and capabilities.
"Wait for my good news," Fang Yuan nodded.
......
Shortly after.
Inside the relic.
Fang Yuan, with Victini, Darkrai, Eevee, and Glutton, jumped in.
Eevee on one shoulder, Victini on the other, Darkrai and Glutton lurking in the shadows.
With such a setup, Fang Yuan felt that even if they really encountered the soul of the Polcrandis King, they could ensure a safe passage.
What's more, he had the protection of the Fighting Plate.
"Bwoo!~"
"Bimi~~"
After entering the relic, curiosity sparked within Eevee and Victini; even the corridor ceilings inside the relic still had faint lighting.
No matter how one looked at it, this relic must have been tens of thousands of years old. To maintain such a condition now spoke volumes of the magical nature of the Super Ancient Civilization.
Fang Yuan followed the corridors through many paths. During this time, he saw a Pikachu stone statue, a Banette stone statue, and some other Pokemon stone statues. By now, Fang Yuan fully confirmed that this was the relic from the anime.
Seeing the intact Pokemon statues, Fang Yuan couldn't help but silently commend the professionalism of the Trainers who had entered before him.
Fortunately, they had not moved the statues.
Otherwise, they would definitely have triggered mechanisms, leading to various attacks.
Of course, none of these distracted Fang Yuan's step; his goal was clear - the deepest part of the relic, a special room that could also be called "the King's Chamber."
The soul of the Polcrandis King was preserved there.
Fang Yuan kept moving straight through the corridors, using Wave Guide to sense dangers around him and avoiding various mechanisms as he headed deeper until he finally reached the stone door.
Arriving there, Fang Yuan glanced at the switch next to him and at the structure of the stone door in front of him, asking, "Ready?"
Naturally, he was asking Eevee and the others. They were about to enter, and if there was any danger, they needed to react quickly…
"Bwoo! Bimi! (Let's go!)"
Boom!
The moment Eevee and the others responded, Fang Yuan touched the stone door, and in the next second, the stone door revolved, pushing him inside.
Boom!!
Two consecutive booms rang out, the stone door first opened and then closed, and Fang Yuan and his companions successfully entered the innermost room of the relic.
The room was still brightly lit and quite vast; Fang Yuan even saw a massive statue of Polcrandis King standing more than ten meters tall right in front of him.
"It seems this is the place…" Fang Yuan looked down at the Stone Orb on the pedestal below the statue.
Meanwhile.
Eevee and Victini were also taking in everything inside the room.
As the two little ones saw the Polcrandis King's statue, they got excited as if they had entered the room of a big boss.
"Bwoo!!" "Bimi!!"
Go touch the Stone Orb!
It seemed as if they were commanding Fang Yuan like a character in a game.
"I $%#@%."
Fang Yuan was speechless. I brought you along for protection, not to direct me on an adventure game!
Without a doubt, the Stone Orb beneath the statue was the Sealing Object from Fang Yuan's memory.
Did Fang Yuan dare to touch it?
He really didn't.
Although he had the courage to come this far, knowing that touching that thing would lead to possession by the soul of Polcrandis King, his heart was still a bit resistant.
So...
After much deliberation, Fang Yuan used Mental Shock on the ground beneath him. In the next second, the ground cracked, and he crouched down, prying out a piece of stone.
After weighing it in his hand, his eyes gradually sharpened. He tensed his body, aiming at the Stone Orb on the pedestal.
Boom!!!
