Chapter 156 Earthquake
With Swampert's "100,000 horsepower" taking down the two Gyarados, the two Gyarados on the shore were finally freed from the "whirlpool".
However, after escaping, they did not immediately rush towards the swamp monster that had bound them.
Although Gyarados are known for their bad temper and recklessness, they are not brainless; their brains are simply trapped in their own bones.
Swampert's godlike performance completely stunned the two Gyarados on the shore and the six Gyarados in the lake.
A deep sense of dread flashed in their eyes. They had begun to calmly consider whether it was wise to make an enemy of this giant swamp monster.
However, their fear did not mean Lu An would show mercy.
"Since you're not taking the initiative, then it's my turn."
Swampert, use Blizzard!
"Ratchet!"
Swampert stood at the boundary between the shore and the lake, and with a wave of its hand towards the six Gyarados in the lake, a chilling aura swept over them.
In situations with many enemies, wide-area attacks like "Surf" and "Blizzard" are naturally more effective.
Soon, a blizzard suddenly swept across the clear, sunny Yuanshan Lake.
The blizzard was so severe that the tentacles of the Gyarados were quickly covered in snow.
"Hoohoho!"
Although the Gyarados live in the lake, the water temperature is not actually that low, and cannot be compared with this blizzard.
The blizzard, with temperatures dropping to minus ten or twenty degrees Celsius, dealt a significant blow to the Gyarados group.
Two of the Gyarados are already showing signs of becoming unstable.
Seeing this, the other four Gyarados gathered around the two Gyarados to protect them from the blizzard.
Perhaps realizing that things couldn't continue like this, the Gyarados began to roar again.
This roar quickly energized the eight Gyarados in the two locations. Energy began to gather in their mouths, and the terrifying waves of "Hyper Beam" once again sprayed wildly in all directions.
They are searching for themselves!
Lu An, who was hiding in the woods, quickly realized this.
Although he was well hidden, the Swamperts would always receive his orders before each attack, and they were to find him!
Moreover, because he had made his voice heard many times before, and although he changed his position in time each time, he was still confined to such a small area. Gyarados quickly pinpointed the approximate location where he was hiding.
The Gyarados, intent on finding Lu An, used "Hyper Beam" to wreak havoc on everything in its path, determined to blast Lu An out of his hiding place.
Seeing that he could no longer hide, Lu An leaped and quickly arrived beside the Swamp Monster.
Seeing this, several Gyarados roared and several streams of water, thicker than trees, shot towards Lu An.
"Ratchet!"
Although Swampert is not as tall as Gyarados, it is in no way inferior in terms of imposing presence.
Faced with the oncoming jets of water, the Swamp Monster coiled its arms around swirling streams of water and slammed them down heavily.
Swampert's arm strength is such that it can lift up two Gyarados and smash them, and breaking through several water columns is just a piece of cake for it.
However, the Gyarados on the shore and in the lake took advantage of this time to quickly attack Lu An and Swampert, forming an encirclement.
"Hey, hey, hey, is that your special student? He looks like he's in danger, do you want to go down and save him?"
Although Luther couldn't see Lu An's appearance clearly while flying in the sky, it wasn't hard to deduce that this must be the Special Investigator that Long Ze had mentioned when he saw Lu An arrive beside the Swamp Monster.
Seeing that he seemed to be in an awkward situation surrounded by enemies, Luther patted Longze on the shoulder with concern.
But Long Ze just smiled calmly:
"Relax, the title of Special Grade is given because one possesses Special Grade abilities."
"Besides, as I said, even a top-tier Swampert hasn't used its best move yet, so this isn't a crisis at all."
After saying a string of tongue twisters, Long Ze ignored Luther and looked expectantly at Lu An and the giant swamp monster beside him.
As a big fan of Lu An, Long Ze was naturally very clear about the strength of Lu An's Pokémon.
For example, Lu An's Espeon, although suffering from a disease and not quite on par with the top-tier Pokémon, is quite adept at using psychic abilities.
Sabrina, a quasi-Special Class Investigator, once admitted in a sparring match at headquarters that, in terms of the use of psychic powers alone, Special Class Luan's Espeon was superior to her Alakazam.
For example, Lu An's Vulcan Moth, although usually quiet and reserved, is the most demure member of Lu An's team.
However, when it comes to fighting style, it is unparalleled in its wildness.
Lu An's nickname, "The Temperamental Lu An," is partly due to the Volcano's devastating and relentless fire attacks.
The Swamp Monsters, including Luant, have one major characteristic: super strength.
Sometimes, when looking at the files about Swampert, Ryuzawa, the newly appointed investigator, couldn't help but let his imagination run wild.
What exactly is the waist of the giant swamp monster, Luante and others, made of?
How can a body the size of an adult be able to unleash such astonishing power using only its waist, abdomen, and limbs?
And the giant swamp monster that Longze had once been unable to understand was now right under his nose.
And he will soon be able to see that shocking moment that was once recorded in the investigator's historical files.
Looking at the eight Gyarados surrounding him, protected by Swampert, Lu An grinned slightly:
"You've finally fallen for it. You only come closer when I show myself?"
“If you don’t come any closer, I really don’t know how to take you down in one fell swoop.”
As Lu An spoke, the giant swamp monster gently placed one hand on Lu An's slender waist and, with a slight effort, pulled him onto its shoulder.
"Ratchet."
Looking at the eight Gyarados in front of and behind him, Lu An, sitting on Swampert, patted his partner and whispered:
"Come on, give them the final blow."
"Ratchet."
The giant swamp monster, which had quietly reached the shore, twisted its body, lifted its foot, exerted force with its waist and abdomen, and then stomped hard on the ground beneath its feet.
"Boom!"
In an instant, the mountains collapsed and the earth cracked!
The earthquake raged, the earth trembled, and the grassland that was originally the boundary between the shore and the lake instantly developed cracks that stretched out in all directions, with the location of the giant swamp monster and Lu An as the center.
The eight Gyarados that charged toward Lu An were unable to resist and were mercilessly swallowed up by the cracks.
These cracks are like connections to the deepest part of the earth, an unfathomable and terrifying place.
Despite being six or seven meters long, they showed no sign of escaping the ground in the face of these cracks that were over three meters wide.
Looking at the terrifying scene of mountains collapsing and the earth splitting apart, resembling the end of the world, Long Ze patted his chest, his eyes filled with reverence mixed with a hint of fear:
"This is the most powerful move of a top-tier Swampert—Earthquake."
Beside Longze, Luther, who was lying on the Charizard looking down, was still immersed in such a terrifying scene.
But after hearing Longze's mutterings, Luther looked at the swamp monster still at the epicenter of the earthquake and suddenly paused:
"Why does this scene seem a little familiar?"
