Chapter 7: Big Beak Bird
(Second update!! New book, please collect, please flower!! Thanks to "Night Cloud", "Persi" for your generous rewards!)
The girl wasn't heavy. Although his own body hadn't grown up yet, he was considered to be gifted. Carrying a little girl was still very easy.
Thinking about it carefully, they say he's a master of releasing Pokémon. To be honest, it's just that trainers can't fight each other. Otherwise, who could be a match for my wise brother?
Strength comparable to Snorlax, defense comparable to a Koffing, speed not slower than Pikachu, jumping comparable to a Blaziken. With this physique, why would he need Pokémon?
While Xia Zhi was making fun of himself, the girl on his back felt an unprecedented sense of security and warmth, and her cheeks involuntarily flushed red.
"Um... my name is Serena! Thank you for saving me."
"My name is Xia Zhi, you're welcome." Xia Zhi responded with a nod when he heard this.
"I know, Professor Oak called your name just now. You're so amazing, you're about the same age as me but you know so much, and... you're not scared at all!" Feeling safe, Serena became more cheerful.
Actually, she was a cheerful girl to begin with, but she had never encountered such a situation, and she was still a little afraid of Pokémon.
"Scared? You mean Pokémon? They're not scary at all! Although some are fierce, there are also many cute ones."
"I know, but I'm still not brave enough to encounter wild Pokémon like this." Serena naturally knew this. She would like some cute Pokémon if someone had caught them, but she wouldn't dare to approach wild ones like this.
"Just make friends with them, even Pokémon that haven't been captured can still be good friends." Xia Zhi said as he carried Serena towards the camp.
"Can... we?" Serena leaned on Xia Zhi's shoulder, responding uncertainly.
"Of course!"
......
The two chatted as they walked, slowly Xia Zhi carrying Serena walked out of the jungle, back to the path in the jungle. Xia Zhi remembered the location of the camp, after all, it was near Pallet Town, even though few children came to these places.
But he was still familiar with the surrounding terrain. As long as he followed the path all the way, he would get there.
"Everyone's gone!!"
After walking past the original path, Serena was a little worried. Although Xia Zhi was with her, she also knew that Xia Zhi was like her, neither of them was a trainer, so she started to worry.
"It's okay, I know where the camp is, just keep following this path and you'll get there. They must be there, and they must be looking for us all over the place now!" Xia Zhi comforted Serena when he heard this, and Serena felt relieved after hearing Xia Zhi's words.
For some reason, she always felt that this boy, who was about the same age as her, was incredibly reliable.
Pitter-patter!!
Caw!!!
"Huh??" At this moment, a familiar sound suddenly came from behind, Serena trembled when she heard the sound, Xia Zhi turned his head subconsciously when he heard it.
Turning his head to look, he saw black shadows constantly appearing in the air, which were the figures of Pidgey, and at this moment, a larger black shadow fell from the air.
It was much bigger than the Pidgey, with orange feathers, the area between the wings and the tips of the wings were milky white. Its head had a red crest. Its pink beak was long and sharp.
"Big Beak Bird, it even called in the big boss." Xia Zhi naturally recognized it at a glance, this guy's temper wasn't good, no wonder there were so many Pidgey, it turns out there was a Big Beak Bird leading them.
"Xia Zhi, what should we do?" Pidgey was already scary enough, but now there was a Big Beak Bird, it looked fiercer than those Pidgey, and now all she could rely on was Xia Zhi.
"Hold on tight, we have to run!" Thank goodness Xia Zhi didn't have telepathy, if you were to ask him what he could do, what could he do? Right now, the only thing he could do was run.
"Okay!!" Serena heard this and quickly hugged Xia Zhi's neck, Xia Zhi didn't waste any time, quickly turned around, carrying Serena, and ran quickly forward.
Caw!!!
The Big Beak Bird let out a hoarse cry when it saw this, all the Pidgey seemed to have received instructions and swooped down. The Big Beak Bird also charged over.
Buzz!!!!
Carrying Serena, Xia Zhi was already slow, but there was no other way but to run now. Suddenly, he heard a sound of air being pulled, Xia Zhi immediately sensed that something was wrong, Serena was already too scared to look.
Xia Zhi ran forward and looked back. He saw the Big Beak Bird in the air, overlooking this place, its sharp beak opened, and a purple energy rapidly gathered.
"Damn! This is troublesome, hold on tight!"
"Ah!!"
Boom!!!!
As soon as the words left his mouth, he heard a roar, Xia Zhi glanced at it, there was no time to think, quickly ran towards the side of the road, and then rushed towards the side of the road with Serena, letting go of Serena who was screaming behind him, hugging her in his arms, and fell to the ground by the side of the road at the same time.
Bang boom!!!
A loud bang was heard, a thick beam of purple light fell from the sky and hit the ground, sweeping forward along the ground. The spot swept by the beam of light caused a shocking explosion, leaving a charred mark that continued to emit smoke.
"Huh? There's movement! Over there... "
The sound of the explosion resonated, and the sound traveled a long distance. At this moment, the staff who were leaving from the camp and looking for Xia Zhi and Serena also noticed it.
"Something must have happened there, maybe Xia Zhi and Serena are there, hurry over!" Two staff members looked at each other and quickly said.
And at this time, Xia Zhi and Serena, who had dodged the attack, the entire path, the grass was swept flat, and there was fire burning on the ground.
"Are you okay! Get up, we have to go." Xia Zhi hugged Serena in his arms and quickly said.
"I... I can't, Xia Zhi, you go by yourself! Don't mind me." Serena's voice was trembling at this time, but it was much better than crying at the slightest scare before. However, she was afraid of implicating Xia Zhi.
"Don't say such stupid things, let's go together." Xia Zhi smiled when he saw this, and rubbed her messy hair to comfort her. The straw hat he had been carrying didn't know where it had fallen, and now he didn't have time to care about where it had fallen.
