Chapter 1017 Phantom Tower
Route 111, north of Zijin City, Xiaozhi and the three are still traveling.
This is a semi-Gobi trail. Although it is not completely deserted, the green vegetation is also extremely scarce, which makes people feel very depressed.
"Phew...do you feel that the weather is getting hotter?"
Xiaozhi stuck out his tongue and couldn't help asking.
In the sky, a scorching sun hung above it, and even the air became hot. The three of them were obviously just walking normally, but they were all sweating profusely.
"Pickup..."
Pikachu even lay on Xiaozhi's shoulder, panting heavily, almost dehydrated.
It is barefoot, but it dare not step on the ground directly, and it can be cooked in minutes.
But before walking for a while, a few people hurriedly passed by around, jumped over the crowd, and walked quickly towards the front, as if there was something good ahead.
"These guys...?"
This is not the first wave of people to jump over them.
Just according to the instructions on the map, there should be only one nameless desert ahead, is there any special existence?
Xiaozhi made up his mind and planned to stop the next wave of people from asking.
But before he could make a move, he was stopped by others first.
"The three are trainers...Are you also going to find the remains of the Phantom Tower?"
The person who asked the question was a pretty big sister, with short capable hair, dressed in a blue off-the-shoulder short sleeves and white cropped pants, and she was quite fashionable.
Holding the microphone in his hand, he almost hit Xiaozhi's nostrils.
Behind him was a guy carrying a camera, wearing a peaked cap backwards, and a short-sleeved top with an orange-yellow Pokémon pattern with lightning.
The camera lens was aimed at the three of them.
"The Phantom Tower?"
Xiaozhi and Xiaolan looked at each other, it was the first time for both of them to hear this word.
"That's right, Xiaosheng is going to the Phantom Tower to find the trail of your beautiful lady!!"
However, Xiao Gang's face turned red, and he directly grabbed the palm of the reporter's eldest sister. This appearance also shocked the reporter and photographer duo.
"Don't worry, the weather is too hot, Mr. Gang may be sick..."
Xiaolan hastily smiled dryly and dragged Xiaogang back.
...
After some exchanges among the people, the three of Xiaozhi knew what was happening in front of them, and countless people came to watch.
"Haha, was it just a random passerby? I'm sorry, I have an occupational disease, and I want to interview when I see the target~"
The trio walked side by side with the reporter duo, and the big sister reporter introduced herself with a smile:
"I'm Mary, a reporter from Fangyuan TV, and he's Xiao Dai, a photographer. As for the Tower of Phantom..."
The Phantom Tower, according to legend, is a dilapidated rocky tower, about five or six stories high, which hides an ancient secret.
"The legendary Tower of Phantom appeared in the desert ahead...but like its name, it is like a phantom. So far no one has been able to find the exact location of the Tower of Phantom in the desert. .”
"The great old secret...?"
Xiaozhi nodded, it did sound very attractive.
"However, it is said recently that someone discovered the Phantom Tower, and it was even on the hot search yesterday, which attracted countless people to come to investigate."
As a reporter, Mary naturally brought her colleagues to find out what happened at the first time.
"It's just that this unnamed desert has a large area, and it is full of strong wind and sand flying all year round. There are many dangerous wild Pokémon inhabiting it. It is not easy to find it."
Xiaozhi's eyes lit up when he heard the words of wild Pokémon.
"A Pokémon in the desert, I don't know what...?"
The three of Xiaozhi immediately became interested, and planned to go to the uninhabited desert to find out...Anyway, they were on the way.
...
Wait for everyone to come to the entrance of the nameless desert.
"twitter...!"
At the entrance that keeps narrowing, many people have already gathered at this moment.
There were crowds of people and discussions, but few people took the initiative to walk into the desert.
"It's getting hotter in here..."
Xiaozhi wiped the sweat from his chin, he really wanted to release Chenglong, and asked him to spray some water to cool down.
What's even more strange is that there seems to be a clear dividing line between the entrance of this desert and the outside world.
Sasha! !
There was whirring sand and dust inside, but as soon as it crossed the dividing line, the sand and dust stopped instantly.
Pikachu tried to jump into the dividing line, putting his foot on the soft sand.
"Pickup...!!"
The next moment, Pikachu jumped three feet high in shock, blowing on the soles of his hind limbs.
"Is the sand hot too...?"
Xiaozhi just bent down and picked up some sand to rub, and there was a burst of scorching heat in his palm.
"Hey, it shouldn't be so hot before, right?"
Mary also came up and tried to poke the sand. The extremely hot touch made her retract her fingers instantly.
Wait a minute, has this boy practiced iron sand palms? How can he hold this kind of sand directly in his hands? !
However, this is not the first time for her to report the news about the Phantom Tower. The last time the instruction came, there was no gain. This time, Mary intends to obtain high-quality news no matter what.
"Is it because of Gulardo, the god of the earth?"
The photographer Xiao Dai in the rear looked at a certain mountain on the side of the desert, which was roughly a conical volcano.
Because Gulardo left the Yoshien region, the volcanoes here have also become unstable... As a result, not only the air in the nearby desert is hot, but even the sand cannot be touched directly?
He pointed the camera at the crowd around him, frantically collecting materials.
But not everyone is stuck at the entrance of the desert and cannot enter.
Buzz buzz! !
Buzz buzz! !
A few high-frequency vibrations of insect wings came, and Xiaozhi saw a few big dragonflies with green heads and red bodies.
"A dragonfly?"
Xiaozhi recognized this as a Pokémon from the Chengdu area.
And these dragonflies are also tied with reins, which extend backwards and are connected to the front end of a surfboard-like skateboard.
Several mountain men even stepped on skateboards, wearing sand-proof goggles.
"Haha! Phantom Tower, my uncle is here!!"
"Yo hoo~!!"
Hush! !
With the force of the dragonfly, it was dragged and rushed into the desert, kicking up countless sand.
"Is there another way?"
Seeing this, the explorers who had previously been unable to enter the desert turned their attention to a small shop next to the entrance of the desert.
Previously, the dragonflies and skateboard equipment of these people were all rented from here.
"Boss, bring me a bigger dragonfly!"
"Is there any bird, bring me a bird!"
Suddenly, countless people huddled together, scrambling to rent Pokémon and equipment.
The Phantom Tower is no different from a treasure, so there is no reason for it to be preempted by others.
Hush! !
Then, pulled by the dragonfly, dozens of people rushed into the desert one after another, and their figures gradually disappeared into the wind and sand...
