Chapter 608 So there's nothing behind the waterfall in the Hoenn region after all.
"Chirp chirp!" (Are these the residents? I've seen them before! Come with me.)
The blue cotton bird flapped its fluffy, cotton-candy-like wings, leaped lightly from the rock, and flew deeper into the cave.
It flew slowly, and every now and then it would look back to make sure Li Luochen was keeping up.
Those small, dark, bright eyes were full of pure enthusiasm, clearly showing great affection for the human who could communicate with them.
Li Luochen followed behind it, stepping over several puddles and navigating around several thick stalactite pillars. The sound of water grew louder and louder, and the air became increasingly humid.
After turning a corner, the view suddenly opened up.
A silver ribbon-like waterfall cascades down from a crack in the cave ceiling, dozens of meters high. The water splashes below, creating a crystal-clear pool, where the mist refracts a rainbow of colors.
The rock walls on both sides of the waterfall are covered with glittering minerals, illuminating the entire space as if it were daytime.
Several blue finches hopped around on the rocks at the edge of the waterfall, splashing water with their wings, while on a more distant rock platform, several larger blue finches leisurely preened their cloud-like feathers.
Looking at the cascading waterfall before him, Li Luochen suddenly had a strange thought.
He crouched down, pointed to the waterfall, and asked the blue cotton bird in a half-joking tone, "Do we have to go through the waterfall to find the hidden world inside?"
Sun Wukong discovered the blessed land of Flower Fruit Mountain after passing through the Water Curtain Cave. Perhaps there is some other blessed land hidden behind the Meteor Waterfall.
"Chirp chirp." (There are rocks behind this waterfall; if you go over there, you'll just smash your head to pieces.)
The blue cotton bird tilted its little head, clearly not understanding what the human was saying, but it still flapped its cotton-like wings and chirped twice in a clear voice.
Then it flew down to the bottom of the waterfall and pointed with the tip of its wing to the deep pool that was shimmering from the spray of water.
The meaning is obvious.
It's not behind the waterfall, it's below.
The pool water shimmered with a deep blue light under the glow of the minerals, so clear that you could see the rocks at the bottom and the water-type Pokémon swimming around.
But the deeper you go, the deeper the blue becomes, and you can vaguely see an underwater passage extending downwards.
Li Luochen fell silent as he gazed at the pool of water, his arms crossed as he stared at the deep pool that shimmered with a faint blue light for a long while.
Do we have to dive to find the Meteorites?
This was unexpected.
But thinking about it carefully, it would be abnormal if the habitats of Dragon-type Pokémon could be found so easily.
Fortunately, he wasn't a reckless fool who came to explore the cave unprepared. He reached into his waistband and took out a Poké Ball.
"Come out, Latias."
Latias, entirely golden, landed lightly on the rocks by the pool.
It shook its streamlined golden body, and its clear eyes lit up the moment it saw Li Luochen. Without saying a word, it snuggled into his arms, letting out a series of affectionate whimpers.
It hadn't been able to cuddle with its trainer for a while since its last appearance, so it seized the opportunity to rub against his chest.
Li Luochen patted its head: "Alright, alright, let's get down to business first. Take me diving, and follow this underwater passage down."
"You made me do chores as soon as I got here, how mean!"
Latias's plaintive voice echoed in Li Luochen's mind, soft and gentle, with a hint of coquetry.
This is a new skill it recently learned: telepathy.
It's not too difficult for normal Pokémon to learn telepathy, especially for Psychic-type Pokémon, it's a natural progression.
Moreover, Latias is a legendary Pokémon, so its talent is undeniable, and it learns everything quickly.
It just doesn't usually use it, preferring to express its emotions through body language. Now it only uses telepathy when it's being affectionate and complaining to Li Luochen, as if that makes its "resentment" more meaningful.
However, although Latias complained, its actions spoke louder than words.
The golden body slid out of Li Luochen's arms and lightly leaped into the pool, splashing a small spray of water.
It circled underwater, a light blue mental shield illuminating its body, isolating it from the water. Then it surfaced and nodded to Li Luochen, signaling him to get on.
Li Luochen didn't stand on ceremony and flipped over to straddle Latias's back.
He bent down, gently wrapped his arms around Latias's neck, and whispered in its ear, "Let's go."
"Wuhu!" (Let's go!)
Latias let out a light cry, its tail fins gently swayed in the water, and its entire body plunged into the deep pool like a golden arrow.
The mental shield completely isolated the cold pool water. Li Luochen felt as if he were encased in a transparent bubble, and he could clearly see the rocks at the bottom of the pool, the swaying water plants, and a few curious goldfish that came over to examine him.
As Latias dived deeper and deeper, the water gradually changed from light blue to a deep, dark blue.
The entrance to the underwater tunnel slowly appeared in the darkness, like a deep, gaping maw, awaiting their arrival.
......
......
At this very moment, deep within Meteor Falls, lies a hidden paradise.
This is a huge cavity hidden deep in the mountain. The skylight, which seems to come from nowhere, hangs high above the cave ceiling, illuminating the entire space as if it were dusk.
Houses built of rock and wood are scattered in this secluded place, with unknown herbs and dried fish drying on the roofs, and wisps of smoke rising from the chimneys.
The streets are paved with cobblestones, and bioluminescent moss grows on both sides, creating a dazzling spectacle of twinkling lights.
This is the settlement of the Meteor Dwellers, a place that has never been marked on the map of the Hoenn region.
An old man sitting cross-legged on a futon suddenly opened his eyes.
Her full head of silver hair was neatly combed, and her face was covered with deep wrinkles, but her eyes were so bright that they didn't look like those of an old woman in her twilight years.
The old man tilted his head slightly, his gaze piercing through the layers of rock walls, looking towards the distant, deep blue pool.
"Grandma, what's wrong?"
The one who spoke was a young girl standing beside the old man. She was only sixteen or seventeen years old, with neatly trimmed black medium-length hair and a few strands hanging down beside her ears.
She wore a simple black short-sleeved shirt and brown tight shorts, which accentuated her tanned yet toned figure, a result of years of running around in the mountains.
A worn-out gray cloak was casually draped over his back, its edges frayed, giving him a travel-worn appearance.
Her right foot was wrapped with a spiral of blue ornaments from her ankle to below her knee, which swayed gently as she stood up.
This girl is none other than Sigana.
"The guests who have come from afar have arrived."
The old man smiled slightly and closed his eyes again: "It's been quite a while..."
