Chapter 514 Driving Energy
"What's wrong with it?"

Banze looked at the Iron Warrior worriedly, and could only look at Luo Mu and ask.

This was the first time Luo Mu had seen such a situation and he was a little confused.

Being stared at by Cang Yan Ren Gui and Ban Ze like this, he felt a lot of pressure.

After pondering for a long time, Luo Mu observed that the sound emitted by the Iron Warrior seemed to become weaker and weaker, and the "sound quality" seemed to have changed from "ultimate master tape" to "full loss sound quality".

This... Could it be that the power is out?

Luo Mu blinked, feeling that his guess was somewhat unreliable.

The paradoxical Pokémon of the future is so mysterious, how could it be out of power?

Even if you run out of power, you can still find Electric-attribute Pokémon to charge.

But the Iron Warrior's changes were getting faster and faster, and finally even the shiny blocks of color on its body disappeared after flashing a few times and no longer lit up.

have to.

The power is really out and the machine is turned off.

"Dragonite, please charge it with 100,000 volts."

This time, Roentgen Cat didn't come, so Luo Mu could only seek help from Dragonite.

Water, Fire, Electric, Ice, Flying, and Dragonite have moves with more attributes. Even without Mega Evolution, it is a fact that Dragonite's skill pool has a very wide range of attack.

The Iron Warrior is not as weak as the Iron Baggage, and Dragonite has to control the energy output to avoid it being electrocuted.

After a while, bright lightning lit up on the top of the mountain. The Iron Warrior was bathed in a hundred thousand volts of just the right intensity, and it seemed that he was not greatly affected.

only--

Dragonite used 100,000 volts nearly ten times in succession, and it could charge a lot of electricity in the farm's power generation and storage facilities.

But the Iron Warrior still showed no signs of moving.

Only then did Luo Mu realize that something was wrong.

That's not right. If it were the iron bag that was sent back to the Padia Pit by the Padia Alliance, all this electricity would be enough for it to use the black technology "basketball" to create a snowfield.

There were also the iron tracks in the scorching desert. I remember that after the Alliance studied it, they were also surprised to find that although it was not an electric Pokémon, it could move on electricity.

He frowned and looked at the Blue Flame Blade Ghost.

The Blue Flame Blade Ghost, who was in tune with his thoughts, shook his head.

In the duel just now, it hardly used any moves. At most, it chopped the iron warrior with the big sword attached with blue flames. It was impossible to leave any abnormal state.

"."

Seeing that Cang Yan Ren Gui denied it, Luo Mu remained silent.

His intuition told him that there were some clues or key points that he had not noticed.

He really couldn't figure it out, and Cang Yan Ren Gui and Ban Ze were still waiting for his answer, so Luo Mu simply activated the plug-in and started asking questions in his mind.

A few seconds later, a line of jumping fonts appeared in his field of vision.

He looked at it carefully several times with wide eyes, and murmured in a low voice: "Driving energy..."

Azure Blade Demon, Dragonite and Hanze all looked at Luo Mu who was talking to himself.

Through the system's prompts, he roughly understood why the Iron Warrior suddenly shut down and why it was so abnormal.

In a word.

The Iron Warriors lack energy, not electricity or attribute energy, but energy closely related to their paradoxical Pokémon.

In the game, this energy appears as a strengthening item for Paradox Pokémon, called "Drive Energy", which can trigger the characteristics of ancient/future Paradox Pokémon "Ancient Activity" or "Quark Charge" without the need for sunny days or electric fields.

In fact, this energy is also the source of energy for these paradoxical Pokémon.

The ancient paradoxical Pokémon were still easy to deal with. They could slowly replenish their energy by eating or basking in the sun and achieve a balance between income and expenditure.

But Iron Warrior, a Pokémon that is almost semi-mechanical, cannot be like the ancient paradox Pokémon.

They have higher requirements for driving energy.

To give an example, it is like the iron bag caught by Luo Mu. It copes with the problem of energy consumption by shutting down and going into hibernation.

Another iron track in the scorching desert escaped from the Padia Crater in recent years.

As for this Iron Warrior——

Luo Mu looked at Banze and asked, "When are you going to travel?"

"10 is old."

Hanzawa answered without hesitation.

Luo Mu asked again, "How long ago did you meet the Iron Warrior?"

"About 11 years old."

Banze was smart enough. He thought about why Luo Mu asked him this question and simply added another sentence.

"I'm 21 now, and it's been about ten years."

Luo Mu: “.”

What if, he meant what if.

If the Iron Warrior has been active since ten years ago until today, then the driving energy in its body will naturally be consumed faster than the Iron Bag and Iron Tracks. Can this be understood this way?
In fact, it may be more than ten years. The Iron Warrior may have left the Padia Pit and came to the land of Padia region even longer ago.

Luo Mu felt that the truth had been completely pieced together.

He used his own words to explain his "guess" to Hanze and Cang Yan Rengui in a simple and easy-to-understand way.

Cang Yan Ren Gui naturally had 100% trust in Luo Mu and had no doubts about him.

As for Hanzawa, since he didn't understand the Paradox Pokémon or even many things in the Padia Pit, he treated it as a system crash when Luo Mu threw out a bunch of technical terms.

He could only understand that the Iron Warrior was short of energy, so he shut down.

“Then these energies”

Banze asked Luo Mu in a low voice, hoping he had a solution.

He hasn't expressed his gratitude to the Iron Warrior yet, why did the other party turn off his phone?
Luo Mu shook his head and said, "I don't know how to obtain the driving energy at the moment, I can only find a way to find it."

This can be considered a white lie.

Luo Mu knew that the driving energy was probably a prop specially developed by Professors Olin and Futu to match the characteristics of paradoxical Pokémon.

Most of them used the technology of time machines, or involved time machines, and were made with some principles that he couldn't understand.

Now the two doctors are still waiting in the Padia Pit for me to go to the Zone Zero Research Institute on the agreed day.

The driving energy is probably nowhere to be found.

The Cang Yan Blade Ghost was in a complicated mood. Now it also understood why the Iron Warrior had changed so much this time compared to the last time.

So he did this because he realized that he was reaching the limit of his activity?
"Bowu." Dragonite bit his palm gently and made a worried cry.

Compared to the Iron Warrior, it is more worried about the Thunder Drum on the farm. Could it also be lacking in some driving energy?
Fortunately, according to Luo Mu, the Thunder Drum can achieve a balance between income and expenditure by basking in the sun and eating.
There was a trace of heartache in Dragonite's eyes.

I give half of my afternoon tea dessert to my mother and the other half to Meng Lei Gu.

After thinking about it, Luo Mu felt that he could not just leave the Iron Warrior's shut-down body on the top of the mountain.

Let’s take it back to the farm first.

Fortunately, the Iron Warrior simply shut down due to lack of energy, and the effect of the Poké Ball could still work on it, which made Luo Mu feel slightly relieved.

Being able to collect it means that as long as there is driving energy, the Iron Warrior can wake up.

After returning to the farm, I will let the Iron Warrior, who has been turned off, be a tome figure for a while before I get the driving energy.

They rode Dragonite all the way back to Hanzawa's ranch. Considering that it was already late at night, Luo Mu simply stayed overnight at Hanzawa's house. In the morning, he visited Joey Yumi before leaving Anaza Town.

Before going to bed, at Hanze's request, Luo Mu released the turned-off Iron Warrior through the Poké Ball, and Hanze carefully stroked its arm.

When Luo Mu asked him how he felt, Banze smiled and said without hesitation: "Although it feels cold, my heart is warm. Thank you for letting me see it and watch its sword dance again."

"Once you find the driving energy, you can come back and look at it."

"Okay, I'll look forward to that day."

".After meeting the Iron Warrior and fulfilling your wish, are you going back to the Johto region?"

"No, Xueza Town is pretty good here."

On the morning of July 10.

After visiting Miss Joy in Aza Town, Joy Yumi, who had helped Luo Mu a lot during his travels, Luo Mu boarded Dragonite and returned to the farm before lunch.

Returning with him were the Skilled Blacksmith who had completed his evolution, and even had a hammer made from General Servant's armor, fourteen fruit-gnawing worms in total, and the Iron Warrior "figure".

Luo Mu arranged for the fruit-eating Pokémon to live in the new orchard, and sent Honeydragon, Tropical Dragon, and the Huhu siblings over there. It is thought that these Pokémon that originally lived in the wild will be able to adapt to the environment quickly.

Luo Mu also specifically reminded Feng Milong and the others to first instill in the fruit-eating worms that the Steel Armored Crows and Blue Crows in the sky are their own people and there is no need to be afraid of such precautions.

After all, before evolving, Pokémon like Fruitworm are most afraid of bird Pokémon. There are few bird Pokémon in the bamboo forest, so they choose the small fruit forests there as their habitat.

By the time the fruit-eating worms have adapted to the environment, the apple trees will have borne fruit under the care of the white worms.

In fact, now that it is almost November, this batch of apple trees has already bloomed beautiful flowers.

If Luo Mu had not chosen to manage the farm, he might never have known that apple blossoms were so beautiful.

There are five petals in a plum-shaped white trumpet shape. The color is white with a halo, beautiful and graceful, looking like the pink blush on the fair cheeks of a shy girl.

The flowers also have a unique fragrance.

The Queen Bee had already occupied the territory there long ago, drove away those wild Bug-type Pokémon, and prepared to do something big with her three bee subordinates.

This time it plans to collect nectar from apple flowers to brew a special three-bee honey apple honey, and Luo Mu is very much looking forward to it.

In the living room of the new home.

"Well, just put it here."

After looking around and confirming that this was a good spot, Luo Mu smiled with satisfaction and then spoke.

"Yeah, Jutta."

Zhi Huixing muttered the "magic" of the Forest Sage, waved the fan in his hand, and the Iron Warrior's body landed steadily on the ground.

Luo Mu specially put the Iron Warrior in a cross-legged meditation posture, so that it did not look like he was shutting down, but more like he was meditating and practicing.

At least looking at the expression of the Cang Yan Blade Ghost next to him, Luo Mu knew that it was quite satisfied.

As for the location of the Iron Warrior's "life-scale figure".

Originally, Zhihuixing suggested that Luo Mu put the Iron Warrior in the ice cellar to freeze him, but after careful consideration, Luo Mu chose a corner of the living room where Pokémon often moved around.

In this way, even if the Iron Warrior wakes up prematurely without the energy to drive his strength, Luo Mu will be able to know it at the first time.

The only danger is that if the Iron Warrior suddenly wakes up, based on his personality, the living room of his new home will probably have to be redecorated.

However, before that——

His peripheral vision accurately caught sight of the restless Windy Dog nearby.

Just as the opponent was approaching quietly and was about to bite the Iron Warrior.

It's too late, but it's soon.

Luo Mu glared and shouted, "Hey! Don't be so presumptuous!"

His right hand shot out like lightning and grabbed the muzzle of the wind speed dog. No matter how it struggled, Luo Mu still held it tightly.

He knows it!

Luo Mu noticed when Arcanine was trying to get closer.

This ancient Husky dog ​​definitely wanted to tentatively bite the Iron Warrior. According to it, it wanted to "taste the saltiness". Luo Mu didn't know how many pairs of slippers had fallen victim to its poisonous mouth.

Fortunately, Luo Mu was quick-eyed and quick-handed, and this guy's movements could not be hidden from him at all!

The mouthpiece was firmly grasped by Luo Mu, and Windspeed Dog did not dare to struggle hard. It could only make a whimpering sound of "woo woo woo", conveying to Luo Mu that it was wrong and begged for forgiveness.

Glancing at him, Luo Mu let go of his hand and chuckled, "Little guy."

The wind speed dog took a few steps back with its big butt sticking out, its eyes rolling around, and it said nothing.

How could Luo Mu not know it?

In this regard, Windy Dog is an example of "I know I'm wrong, but I just won't change", and I've long been used to it.

By catching its mouth like this, it will be quiet for at least a few hours.

Luo Mu just hummed a song and left the Cang Yan Blade Ghost here to watch over the Iron Warrior's body while walking towards the gate.

Next, we have to test the new hammer of the skilled blacksmith. Unlike the other skilled blacksmiths who attacked Commander Chop, the shell of the hammer of our own skilled blacksmith is made of General Servant Sword's armor. It should be quite good in terms of strength and power.

You have to test the effect.

If the improvement is obvious, Luo Mu thinks he can consider collecting some armor shed by other steel-type Pokémon.

Pokémon like Bosskadora, Metagross, and Steelix.

Even more extreme, the metals of special legendary Pokémon and mythical Pokémon such as Regis Gelu, Dialga, Sildenafil, Solgaleo, Magearna, and Melmetal can also be used to forge hammers.

By then, how powerful will the new hammer be after evolving into the Giant Forger?

But Luo Mu didn't know.

Outside the new house, Houndoom, who was passing by, happened to see through the window that he had captured Arcanine's Mouth alive, and Arcanine was helpless.

At this time, Houndoom's pupils were shaking.

Did it make a mistake?
To these Pokémon, Luo Mu, who seemed to be quite weak, was able to make the Windy Dog beg for mercy with his bare hands.
