...
"Ugh..."
The man's consciousness gradually became clear. He struggled to try to get up, and as if he had thought of something, he suddenly woke up the next moment!
"I... cough, cough, cough..."
At this moment, the pain in Yang Lingfeng's body forced him to wake up completely.
After a brief bout of coughing, he finally noticed the situation around him.
He was currently standing on a patch of scorched earth, likely caused by the aftermath of the battle between Fei Xiao and the others.
"Right! Where are the others!"
Fortunately, his injuries did not affect his movement, so he hurriedly got up and quickly scanned his surroundings.
The pile of scrap metal not far away must be the wreckage of their transport vehicle.
Now he remembered everything completely.
...
"Oh no! It looks like they're about to attack!"
Captain Yang looked over upon hearing this, and sure enough, the three Pokémon were preparing to unleash their moves simultaneously.
They didn't know if Fei Xiao had managed to escape.
Because the aftermath released by the collision of the three Pokémon's skills had directly caused their crash.
"Hiss~"
Thinking of this, Yang Lingfeng couldn't help but scratch his aching back of the head.
If he hadn't found the right moment to jump out of the plane in advance, he might have really met his end.
Just remembering how he almost blacked out upon landing, and then almost ended up "drinking a bowl of soup," he still felt a lingering fear.
Honestly, he still felt a bit shaken.
"Phew..."
He arrived in front of the ruins, trying to find the whereabouts of his companions.
However, it seemed they were favored by the Goddess of Luck this time.
Yang Lingfeng was very happy to find the "intact bodies" of a few people near the wreckage.
"What kind of expression is that? I haven't kicked the bucket yet!"
Zhou Long looked at the captain's neurotic appearance and almost threw up his breakfast in disgust.
Yang Lingfeng didn't get angry, but stepped forward to help him up.
"Old Hei, it's a real pity you didn't die. I thought your wish to go out in a blaze of glory had come true."
"Forget it, I'll take that 'glory' later."
"Then how did you end up in such a sorry state?"
The pilots on the side had already walked over on their own; their level of injury was about the same as Captain Yang's.
It could only be said that Old Hei was the unluckiest one.
"Let's not talk about it. Damn it, you were right this time. If we hadn't lowered our altitude in advance, you probably would have had to join me in meeting our end today."
Zhou Long also had a headache from the injuries on his body, but overall, he was quite fortunate.
Before they blacked out, they only remembered a mushroom cloud rising in the sky.
Good grief, Zhou Long, who was now missing no limbs, was already secretly rejoicing.
Looking at the charred wreckage nearby, he realized he could have been cremated along with it if he hadn't been careful.
Of course, it would have been perfect if the captain in front of him had also gotten a bit injured with him.
In the end, it was him who was unlucky again!
"Right! What about Sister Fei Xiao? If just the aftermath had such terrifying power, then Sister Fei Xiao, who was at the center of the firepower..."
Zhou Long didn't dare to continue.
Yang Lingfeng naturally understood what he meant.
Ah... with such destructive power, even Sister Fei Xiao would...
"You guys take Old Hei and leave immediately, and notify the teammates helping to evacuate the residents to hurry up!"
After giving his instructions, Yang Lingfeng entrusted Old Hei to them and prepared to go and investigate.
Seeing this, Zhou Long's face darkened immediately, and he began to curse.
"Where are you going? You're going to your death, do you know that!"
"If Fei Xiao has really met with misfortune, someone still needs to go and confirm it. Plus, we need to check the movements of those Pokémon."
Yang Lingfeng did not change his mind.
After they woke up, he noticed that the battlefield had inexplicably quieted down.
If the Pokémon hadn't suddenly become tired and wanted to go home, then it was possible that Sister Fei Xiao...
Of course, this could also be the calm before the storm.
So no matter what, someone must go and confirm the outcome with their own eyes.
After speaking, Yang Lingfeng braced himself in his heart and left alone.
"You..."
Zhou Long really wanted to go with the captain, but he had no reason to go when even moving was inconvenient for him now.
Yang Lingfeng followed his Remembrance and moved forward slowly and cautiously.
He didn't know if it was good luck or bad, but he soon arrived at the edge of a large crater.
If his reaction had been any slower, he would have slipped and fallen right in.
"Is this... is this the location where Sister Fei Xiao fell earlier?"
After careful observation, Yang Lingfeng discovered quite a bit of broken glass in the center of the bottom.
These must have shattered when Fei Xiao fell.
If the crater wasn't too deep, he would have actually liked to try to go to the bottom to look for Fei Xiao's figure.
...
"It looks like... Sister Fei Xiao should be..."
Yang Lingfeng rubbed his chin seriously.
He really couldn't confirm the current situation.
Judging by the naked eye, he didn't find any traces of Fei Xiao, so it was very likely that she was still alive.
And those Legendary Pokémon seemed to have disappeared as well.
If Fei Xiao was still alive...
"Maybe they have already left the battlefield? The worst-case scenario is just that Fei Xiao lost, and then the Pokémon left on their own."
Yang Lingfeng roughly sorted out the current situation and simply reached these conclusions.
"Anyway, let's leave this place quickly first."
After Yang Lingfeng scanned his surroundings one last time, he chose not to linger.
He understood that delays could lead to complications, and even though he hadn't found anything, he always felt a faint sense of unease in his heart.
Boom!!!
"Hmm? What the f***"
As soon as Yang Lingfeng looked up, he saw a blue meteor smashing towards him.
He didn't have time to greet it, he turned and ran.
Fortunately, the meteor's landing direction was not towards him.
Rumble!!!
In the end, the earth bore it all.
The ground was blasted into another large crater.
Yang Lingfeng was safe and sound without receiving any injuries.
"Cough, cough, cough... Damn it! What on earth is..."
But the words died on his lips.
In the center of the crater was actually Fei Xiao?
He was happy to see that she was still alive, but he wasn't stupid enough to make a scene.
Because Fei Xiao was still there, and so were the other Pokémon.
Sure enough, the next second, The Legendary Birds appeared slowly from the sky together.
They were still surrounding Fei Xiao in a triangular formation.
"Damn!"
Seeing this scene, Yang Lingfeng's scalp went numb.
When big shots fight, he, a small fry, shouldn't get involved.
Just as he wanted to sneak away, he suddenly felt a gaze fixated on him.
The source of the gaze was not The Legendary Birds in the sky, but rather Fei Xiao on the ground.
Except for the blood left behind earlier, Fei Xiao's other wounds, large and small, had almost healed.
Her beautiful face was as cold as ice, her cyan eyes lacked their usual brilliance, and her trembling lips seemed to be faintly conveying something.
But the feeling she gave Captain Yang at this moment was completely different from when they first met.
Yang Lingfeng discovered that she... seemed to have said something to him.
But the voice was too small to hear clearly.
Relying on his intuition, Yang Lingfeng subconsciously read her lip movements.
"Run...?"
