Chapter 715 The Colossal King Elephant
After an indescribably violent collision, the raging energy gradually dissipated in the billowing dust.
The giant Tyranitar stood still, a red cloud swirling above its head, radiating a chilling aura.
It's clear that in that last attack, the giant rock had the absolute upper hand.
However, when the lingering smoke and dust were slightly dispersed by the still-breathing breeze, revealing the chaotic crater at the center of the collision, which looked as if it had been struck by a meteorite, the scene inside made Luo Hong's brows furrow instantly.
At the bottom of the pit, the figures of Mega Crystal Flower and Mega Centipede King slowly emerged from the cracks in the broken boulders and the flowing venom.
Their carapaces and crystals were covered with a lot of dust and gravel scratches. The charred crack on the chest of the Mega Centipede King seemed to have widened, and a black energy ribbon on the Mega Crystal Flower also looked somewhat dim.
However, they all stood firmly, their crimson and purplish-red eyes piercing through the dust, locked on the Max Tyranitar. Although their breathing was slightly fluctuating, they were clearly not seriously injured enough to affect the battle!
They actually managed to hold up that colossal rock wall together, but at a slight cost, and it wasn't destroyed in one blow!
"Hahaha! As expected of a pseudo-legendary Pokémon after its giant form, this power... is truly impressive!"
The plague's unsettling laughter rang out again, filled with mockery and a sense of control.
"But Director Luo, how long can you maintain this majestic beast form...? Three minutes? Or five minutes?"
Luo Hong's heart sank.
Seen through!
The biggest drawback of Dynamax is its extremely short duration, which makes it difficult to hide when facing experienced top players in real-world battles.
Unlike Mega Evolution, which lasts until the end of the battle or when the Pokémon is defeated, Dynamax usually only lasts for a very short time, three turns in the game.
Afterwards, the Pokémon will be forced to return to its original state due to excessive energy load, and will fall into a brief period of weakness.
The other party clearly understands this strategy and is determined to delay and wear down their opponent!
"Director Luo! I'm here to help you!"
Just then, a slightly hoarse but extremely resolute shout came from the side and behind. It was seen that Xiao Dingtianwang, who had been previously repelled, had wiped the blood from the corner of his mouth and stood up again.
He recalled the badly injured Lucario into its Poké Ball, revealing a Max Bracer with a Wishing Stone at its core, similar in style to Luo Hong's, but with a distinctly grayish color!
His eyes sharpened, and his fighting spirit was rekindled.
As one of the strongest players in East China, trusted by champion Zhang Leiyuan, he naturally also possessed this power.
"Alright! Heavenly King Xiao, let's attack together and finish this quickly!"
Luo Hong's spirits lifted. At this moment, every extra bit of strength increased the chance of resolving the battle within the Dynamax time limit!
"understand!"
Xiao Ding placed a Poké Ball on his wristband and shouted in a low voice, "Dynamax!"
The silver-gray wristband shimmered, and the spectacular sight of energy threads converging in the sky reappeared, though on a slightly smaller scale than the commotion caused by Tyranitar before.
The Poké Ball in his hand also rapidly grew to a gigantic size, transforming into a giant sphere shimmering with metallic luster.
"Go forth, Great Bronze Elephant!!!"
Xiao Ding threw the giant Poké Ball with all his might.
"Bang—!!!!"
With a deafening roar like a heavy metal city gate being flung open, a powerful burst of silver-gray light exploded!
A colossal creature, whose size was in no way inferior to that of the Giant Tyranitar, descended with a thunderous roar!
Its main body still retains the outline of an elephant, but the whole body seems to be cast from bronze and ancient brass that have been corroded for thousands of years, presenting a thick and mottled copper green and dark yellow color.
Its skin texture resembles the patterns of ancient bronze artifacts, and its enormous ears are like two giant bronze shields.
Most striking features are its nose and tusks—the nose has become thicker and longer, resembling a giant bronze hydraulic arm.
The two curved tusks had turned completely into a dazzling gold, as if they were made of pure gold, with mysterious luminous patterns engraved on them, radiating strong steel-based energy fluctuations.
Its limbs are like bronze pillars, and when it stomps on the ground, it makes a dull, metallic sound.
This is the colossal bronze elephant!
Unlike regular Dynamax, Pokémon with a unique Gigantamax form undergo special changes in their appearance and moves!
"Alright! Heavenly King Xiao! Attack together!" Luo Hong seized the opportunity and gave the order again.
"Max Tyranitar! Max Rock!"
"Colossal King Bronze Elephant! Colossal Steel Formation!"
Max Tyranitar roared and stomped the ground again, and another slightly smaller but still enormous rock wall quickly condensed and crashed down!
This time, it's targeting the Mega Centipede King.
The colossal bronze elephant raised its gleaming golden trunk and tusks, let out a thunderous roar that could shatter rocks, and slammed its forelegs heavily onto the ground!
"Boom——!!!"
Centered on its landing point, the ground in a large area in front of it churned violently!
Instead of rising stone pillars, countless thick, sharp, giant metal spikes covered with verdigris and golden patterns burst forth from the ground without warning, like a steel thorn forest from underground!
These metal spikes were not a one-time attack; they did not disappear after piercing, but remained in place like stakes, forming a steel fortress that hindered movement and continuously exuded the sharp aura of steel!
This is the unique change brought about by Gigantamax – a "pitch spike" field that leaves behind continuous damage after an attack!
"A futile struggle! I'm not afraid even if it's two against two!"
"Crystal Flower, Centipede King, launch a full-scale counterattack!"
"Sludge Wave! Venomous Impact!"
The expression beneath the plague mask seemed to have turned slightly serious, but the orders remained ruthless.
The opponent has gained an extra Dynamax unit, so we must go all out.
Mega Crystal Flower pushed the poison cloud to its limit, causing venom to cascade like a waterfall.
Mega Centipede King unleashed an even more ferocious wave of venom, while its body twisted and contorted, using its thick armor to withstand the metal spikes piercing the ground. Its entire body was coated in venom, transforming into a venom drill as it charged upwards!
Poison and rock, poison and steel, are not mutually exclusive in terms of type; at this moment, it is purely a head-on collision of energy intensity and move power!
Although Centipede King's poison-type moves cannot damage Steel-type Bronze Elephant, all it needs to do now is stall for time and deplete the timer of its Dynamax form.
“Boom! Boom! Boom—!!!”
More frequent and terrifying explosions rang out one after another!
The giant rocks collided with the poisonous waves, the thorn forest formed by the Gigantamax Steel array was eroded and worn away by the poison, and the poisonous rain was mostly blocked by the massive rock bodies and metal spikes.
The two sides clashed and annihilated each other in mid-air and on the ground.
The scene was chaotic and shocking.
But this time, Luo Hong and Xiao Ding, who possess two Dynamax Pokémon and whose moves have been greatly enhanced, clearly have a greater advantage.
Poison attacks, though powerful, are effectively divided and blocked by the massive Dynamax Rocks and the terrain-altering Gigantamax Steel Formation.
Mega Crystal Flower and Mega Centipede King were forced to retreat repeatedly, their bodies bearing more and more wounds, and their auras began to become unstable.
"Damn it..." Plague cursed under his breath, the situation was turning against him.
He glanced at the status of his two Pokémon, then at the two imposing beasts in the distance whose red clouds above their heads seemed to be spinning at a subtly changing speed, and a resolute ferocity flashed in his eyes.
"Very well...you forced me to this..."
His voice suddenly became low and eerie, as if he were chanting something.
"I didn't want to use this power here... but for the glory of that lord..."
Under the watchful eyes of Luo Hong and Xiao Ding, the plague suddenly made a perplexing gesture—it stretched out its right hand, palm up, and muttered incantations in an obscure and ancient language, full of blasphemy.
Immediately afterwards, a dark sphere, as black as ink but faintly emitting an ominous, eerie green light, appeared without warning and defied gravity, slowly rising into his palm and quietly rotating.
The dark sphere seemed to have viscous shadows flowing across its surface, radiating a deep and terrifying evil aura.
The voice of the plague suddenly rose in pitch, filled with fanatical piety and sacrificial madness:
"Honorable God of Poison! I am your humble and faithful believer! I beseech you once again to grant me the power to clear away obstacles!"
Before he finished speaking——
"Bang——!!!"
The dark, eerie green sphere suddenly opened above his head!
"Eeya...Woof" (Guess what it is, but no one can make a sound)
There was no white light, only a shrill, mournful roar.
Then a streak of purplish-black light, like an evil comet tearing through the night sky, shot into the sky and exploded into a dark purple toxic energy canopy that continued to expand and obscured the stars and moon!
A terrifying aura, far more sinister, evil, destructive, and divinely majestic than Mega Centipede King and Mega Crystal Flower combined, suddenly descended!
It enveloped the entire battlefield, pressing down on both the Giant Tyranitar and the Colossus King, causing them to involuntarily emit low, wary roars.
Luo Hong and Xiao Ding's expressions instantly turned extremely ugly.
Xiao Lan, who had been hiding in the back, opened her eyes wide in terror and muttered to herself.
"What...what kind of mythical beast could it be..."
