My Name of the Spirit Lucario

With a sigh, Leo returned to the kingdom.

The kingdom that used to be full of laughter and joy now seemed extremely depressed. The little guys like Riolu were ordered to stay at home and not go out casually. As for the Lucario, they were not allowed to leave the kingdom unless necessary, and they would even be searched when they came back.

The Lucarios naturally understood the king’s intention, but with the outside world now in this state, how could it not affect the Lucario Kingdom not far away?

Even the most active elves had no other thoughts. They just stayed in their homes, hoping that the disaster would pass soon.

"Leo, I'm sorry, you need to check it out too."

Lucario, the Pokémon at the entrance to the kingdom, stepped forward and searched Leo thoroughly.

Ever since two Lucarios in the kingdom's palace deserted their posts due to being bewitched by dark matter, the king ordered a thorough investigation of every Pokémon that left the kingdom and returned, and that no Pokémon were allowed to bring in dark matter.

Therefore, even though this elite Lucario is very familiar with Leo, he has to carry out his duties seriously due to his duties.

Leo returned to the palace along the deserted road.

The oncoming queen had just finished checking on the elves when she ran into Leo.

"By the way, Leo, the king wants to see you."

……

The first words they said when they met shocked Leo.

"The kingdom is in your hands!"

Leo's eyes widened and his mouth opened, unable to speak.

After being stunned for a moment, he quickly stepped forward and looked at King Lucario.

Well, he is strong and his hair is shiny. Although he looks a little tired, at least he is in good spirits and doesn't look like he has any problems. Why would he suddenly step down and give up his position?

Probably seeing Leo's thoughtful look, the king realized that he had said the wrong thing and quickly waved his hand.

"No, what I mean is that I plan to be away for a while, and I will leave some affairs of the kingdom to you and the queen to help take care of."

The so-called affairs do not only refer to dealing with various daily matters. After all, the queen is quite familiar with these matters. More importantly, it refers to asking Leo to help use the power of waves to purify the newly discovered dark substances to avoid infecting the elves in the kingdom.

Yes, even if the efforts to search the entrances and exits were intensified, it was still impossible to avoid the sudden appearance of dark matter inside the kingdom. It was unknown whether it was brought back by the Lucarios or appeared for other reasons. However, the king’s attitude was firm, that is, once discovered, it must be destroyed immediately. Therefore, the Lucario Kingdom has been able to barely maintain stability until now.

"But where are you going?"

Leo was relieved to know that the king was not abdicating due to health problems, but he also became curious.

In this chaotic outside world, where is there any place to go?

"I'm going to head to the western waters to find out the source of this matter."

Leo had planned everything, but he never expected that the King could no longer wait for the elite Lucarios to complete their training, and decided to dive into the water alone to carry out the second action they had previously discussed.

"No, it's too dangerous for you to do that!"

Leo objected loudly, but was interrupted by the king.

"If we do that, it will be too late."

The king stood up and walked out of the palace and the kingdom with Leo, looking out at the extremely chaotic grassland.

"It's not only for them, but also for us. You see, this chaos is getting worse and worse, and the number of deaths is increasing. If we continue to let the situation develop, the consequences will be unimaginable."

Leo admitted in his heart that what the king said was right, and compared to the king who was simply worried about the survival of the elves, Leo knew more.

More and more wars will lead to the collapse of order, and more and more deaths will undoubtedly further encourage the rampant dark forces.

If the power of darkness reaches a certain level, then will a certain existence...

He didn't dare to think about it any further, but Leo still felt that letting the king act alone was not the best way.

"If we are attacked by a group of water elves there, it will be difficult to escape."

Leo was worried.

"But if we do nothing, it will be no different from a slow death... If we can resolve this crisis, then there is no point in wasting my life."

The king glanced at Leo and kept the last sentence in his heart.

……

Seeing that he could not change the king's mind, Leo stopped trying to persuade him.

But after thinking about it all night, when the king was about to set off the next day, Leo found the former.

"Let me go with you!"

"no!"

"no!"

The two elves expressed their objection in unison.

Leo did not expect that the king and queen would oppose so strongly. The opposition was so loud that it almost made him lose his mind.

"You have to stay here, because we cannot do without your wave power now."

The king's opposition did have its reasons, but the queen's opposition was purely based on her inner intuition.

But Leo wanted to dive into the water, not only because he wanted to know what was hidden beneath the calm surface of the water, but also because after a night of thinking, he came up with a good idea.

"No, listen to me."

In order to enhance his persuasiveness, Leo took out a coat from his backpack.

If Takuma was here, he would definitely recognize it. This was the "camouflage jacket" that he wore when he and Leo sneaked into Hatsubai Town when they solved the dark elf incident.

"Wearing this... uh, coat, I can blend in with the surrounding environment, making it more concealed for infiltration."

In order not to break the rules of this era, Leo had not taken out some ultra-modern equipment and props. But now that it had come to this critical moment, he did not care whether it would affect the timeline, and after searching through his backpack all night, he finally decided to take out the things.

This "camouflage coat" that was once worn by Takuma was a little small for the king, but it could barely fit him.

But there was only one coat, and the king was wearing it. What should he do?

Of course it’s because Leo has more advanced equipment.

Leo was wearing a mysterious armor. He walked to a dimly lit area, and as the light distorted slightly, he disappeared from the spot, shocking the other two Lucarios speechless.

"How about it? With this set of armor and coat, we can quickly dive near the water. My armor can also provide oxygen, so we can stay in the water for a longer time. In this way, we can quickly find out what is under the water, and it won't take much time to go back and forth. Even without our wave power, I believe it will not be difficult for the kingdom to survive for a while."

At this time, the king was still hesitating, but the queen, who had initially opposed, became resolute.

"In that case, Leo, I'm counting on you... You two, make sure to come back safely!"

The queen held a Lucario in each hand and gave instructions with red eyes.

It's like a mother who is concerned about the safety of her child and husband who are about to travel.

……

Since Leo's armor and Takuma's coat both use "environmental camouflage" rather than true invisibility, the darker the light, the better when choosing the time to sneak in.

Considering that some elves have excellent night vision in the dark night, Leo and the king decided to sneak in in the dim evening.

The two Lucarios flew across the grassland at a very fast speed. Occasionally, a few Pokémon who were dizzy from fighting wanted to drag them into the melee, but they quickly took action, cleared a path, and quickly left.

Therefore, a strange phenomenon appeared on the grassland:

Elves were fighting everywhere, crowding the vast grassland tightly. However, there was a gap across the entire grassland, leading to the waters in the west.

With the help of the "camouflage" function, the two Lucarios successfully avoided the inspection of a group of water elves and quietly came to a cave that was empty for some unknown reason.

"By the way, I really have a connection with caves in this life."

The caves in the Crescent Forest, the caves in Yuanxin City, and even the caves all over the world, it seemed that before every big event, Leo had to find a cave to hide in, which made him complain in his heart.

Leo and the king took out two berries from the tree to replenish their strength.

At the same time, they looked towards the water, not only to observe whether there were any elves approaching, but also to see through the underwater scene.

It's a pity that the water surface is very calm and the water is quite clear, but when you look deeper, you can see nothing but darkness.

"This water is really deep."

Leo suddenly shivered and felt a chill.

"It is said that in a period far more distant from the present, a meteorite from outer space fell here and created a huge deep pit. After a long time, it accumulated over time and became the water area we have today."

The king introduced to Leo the origin of the place before him.

Meteorites falling from the sky, isn’t this the plot of The Promise?

Leo's mind worked quickly and he immediately thought of an invincible existence.

“No wonder there are those wishing stars that can be gigantic in the future… But, that guy under the water can’t be that guy, he’s a super abnormal guy with a race value of 1125…”

Although there are quite harsh conditions for Wuji Taina to reach such a terrifying strength - he must achieve Wuji Gigantamax, which is not something that can be easily achieved, but in this super-ancient era with abundant energy, no one knows whether the conditions for achieving it have changed.

In case the so-called infinite gigantic infinite Taina appeared, Leo thought it would be better to just bury him without struggling.

But considering that the properties of dark matter are not very similar to those of the Infinite, Leo is certain that the thing under the water is not the Infinite.

……

But the problem is that the things that exist underwater are far more terrifying than Wuji Taina.

The two elves were speechless for a long time as they looked at the huge black fog in front of them, and the horse-like figure that appeared inside it, with a raised mane on its head and a cross-like wheel around its waist. Even though it had not yet awakened, it still brought an extremely terrifying sense of oppression.
