Wang Luo's Escape

Chapter 704 Wang Luo's Escape

Natsume's words were like a boulder thrown into a calm lake, stirring up violent waves in Akari's mental realm.

"Running away is useless, Akari." Natsume looked directly at the other person, his tone resolute.

"Even if we eliminate all the anchors, and even merge the two worlds according to your plan, rewriting the rules... it's essentially just hiding."

"Team Rainbow Rocket's power far exceeds your imagination. If they could locate us once, they can locate us a second time! As long as they're still interested in this 'prey'!"

He raised his hand, pointing to his forehead, a subtle yet ominous aura emanating from him: "More importantly, have you considered the consequences of doing this?"

"Technological civilization has completely collapsed, and human society has regressed to a primitive era!"

"This is not merely a change in lifestyle; it means that all the foundations of our strength against external enemies will cease to exist!"

"Even the power of that lord in the Silver Mountains will be greatly weakened or even dormant due to the drastic changes in the world's rules! This is tantamount to crippling oneself when enemies are eyeing one with predatory intent!"

Natsume's voice carried an undeniable force: "Your so-called new world is nothing but a fragile, backward, and vulnerable refuge! It's the culmination of the entire civilization's..."

"Come on, let's gamble on a chance to 'go undetected'—the price is too high! And can we really hide completely?"

At this point, Natsume took a deep breath, his eyes becoming incredibly sharp: "Even if your plan succeeds, the world merges, the rules are rewritten, and all anchor points become invalid, what about me?"

He pointed to himself: "My very existence, deep within my spiritual realm, has long been marked by Team Rainbow Rocket."

"As long as I live, as long as my spiritual realm exists, I am a most prominent beacon for them! Eliminating this anchor point is meaningless!"

As if to confirm his words, Natsume deliberately released a trace of mental fluctuation.

In an instant, a cold, chaotic, and aggressive aura, like a brand, clearly appeared in Chi Ri's perception.

That aura, originating from the same source as Wang Luo's ring, was far more profound and dangerous.

Chi Ri's pupils suddenly contracted.

For the first time, his usually calm and composed face showed intense emotional fluctuations.

"you?!"

Chi Ri's voice instantly turned icy cold. The final machine beneath his feet seemed to sense his rage, its massive body emitting a deep rumble, and the energy channels around it suddenly lit up with a blinding light, as a destructive energy rapidly gathered.

"Since that's the case..."

'

There was no longer any hesitation in Chi Ri's eyes, only a resolute killing intent.

"I'll just take you down!"

"Red Sun! Calm down!" Cynthia cried out in alarm. Garchomp instantly stood in front of Natsume, letting out a warning growl.

However, at this tense and imminent moment, Zhu Lan caught a glimpse of something out of the corner of her eye. Her voice, filled with extreme shock and unease, shrieked, "Wait! Wang Luo... Wang Luo is gone!"

These words were like a bucket of cold water poured over their heads, instantly freezing Natsume and Akatsuki in their tracks.

The two turned their heads sharply to look at the spot where Wang Luo had collapsed unconscious, but it was empty.

Only a few faint traces of blood remained on the ground.

"what?"

"Um?"

Natsume and Akari both stared at the spot where Wangra had disappeared, their brows furrowed.

Wang Luo, the guy who was seriously injured and knocked unconscious by Natsume with a brick, disappeared silently while the two top trainers were facing off and their mental domains were highly concentrated.

"What happened?"

Natsume frowned. His attention had been focused on Wang Luo the whole time. How could the other party have disappeared without a sound?

His telekinetic power swept across the entire area like a tidal wave in an instant, but he couldn't detect any trace of spatial movement.

Wang Luo seemed to have been erased from this space out of thin air.

"Red Sun! This is your spiritual realm! Where is Wang Luo?!"

Natsume asked sharply, his gaze fixed on Akari.

Within the other party's mental realm, nothing that happens should be kept secret from the realm's master.

However, Akari's reaction sent a chill down the spines of both Natsume and Takenori.

Chi Ri's brows furrowed tightly, and his face showed an extremely confused and conflicted expression.

He closed his eyes and sensed for a moment, then opened them, his eyes filled with disbelief and bewilderment.

"He..." Chi Ri's voice trembled with a hint of uncertainty.

"He is not in my mental realm... There is absolutely no trace of his existence in my perception."

"But..." He changed the subject, his tone becoming even more enigmatic.

"I can vaguely sense... he seems to be... still at some level within this realm," a very strange superposition state that I cannot pinpoint or interfere with.

This feeling is incredibly eerie!

It's like knowing someone has entered your house; you can hear their breathing and feel their presence, but when you open all the doors, you can't find them at all.

He seemed to exist in another dimension that overlapped with yet was isolated from the real world.

Natsume's heart sank.

He believed that Chi Ri was not lying, as lying at a time like this would be pointless.

Suddenly, as if he had thought of something, Natsume abruptly raised his head.

"Wait a minute, Chi Ri, you said you met Wang Luo when you were a child?"

"Yes, what's wrong?"

Akari looked at Natsume strangely.

"His appearance hasn't changed at all." Natsume's eyes lit up.

"He seems to have a device given to him by Team Rainbow Rocket that can guarantee his youth?" Akari frowned.

"No, no, no, that can't be it." Natsume shook his head.

"That device is related to Celebi; perhaps its function isn't to keep him young, but rather to allow him to travel through time!"

These words were startling. Zhu Lan, who was standing to the side, was stunned for a moment, and couldn't help but ask, "You mean, the other person just returned to his own timeline?"

"Yes." Natsume nodded.

He had always felt that Wang Luo was strange.

If the opponent is an ancient monster who has lived for thousands of years, he should be able to mentally overwhelm us.

Furthermore, with thousands of years of planning, they should have already cultivated a large number of their own forces. How could they be so easily betrayed by Chi Ri?

His guess at this moment is the most reasonable.
