Chapter 719 Support Arrives
"Great dog, stand-in!"
The plague's hoarse command sounded at the critical moment.
As the powerful, silvery-white body of the Thunder Drum was about to crush down, a ruthless determination flashed in the eyes of Gouzan Dog, who had just withstood a 100,000-volt attack and was now paralyzed.
"Wang!"
It let out a short, low growl, and the paralyzing electric light that had not yet completely dissipated around its body was forcibly suppressed.
A surge of pure life force energy from its body erupted wildly, quickly enveloping its entire body!
Under the influence of this energy, Gouzan Dog's originally sturdy and robust body shrank and deformed at a speed visible to the naked eye!
The dark purple fur lost its luster, the bulging muscles softened, and the ferocious beast head became rounded...
In the blink of an eye, a ferocious poison-type divine beast transformed into a dinosaur doll that was only half a person tall, with a strange grass-green body and a clumsy design that resembled a child's toy!
This is a Normal-type transformation move – Substitute!
Consuming some of her own physical strength and life energy, she creates a doll substitute that can completely withstand the next attack!
"boom--!!!!!!!"
The moment the Stand finished, the silver-white metallic meteor that the Thunder Drum had transformed into crashed solidly to the ground!
The point of impact was precisely where the green dinosaur doll was located!
The expected carnage or energy clash did not occur. The green stand-in doll was touched by the silver body the instant it was struck.
Like a punctured balloon, it exploded with a soft "pop" into a cloud of scattered, grass-green energy smoke, which was then completely dispersed and annihilated by the violent shockwave from the falling Thunder Drum.
The original form of the "Good Dog" has vanished without a trace.
"Boom——!!!"
The real explosion finally erupted! The thunderous drum's "heavy impact" slammed solidly into the earth!
Centered on the point of impact, the ground within a radius of several meters seemed to have been completely drained of its support, collapsing instantly under the terrifying pressure and kinetic energy!
Concrete, asphalt, soil... everything crumbled and sank amidst groans!
A giant crater, with a diameter of tens of meters and a depth of several meters, suddenly appeared!
The massive, silvery-white body of the Thunder Drum was thus deeply embedded in the bottom of the pit, and the dust and gravel it kicked up shot up dozens of meters into the air like a fountain, mixing with the lingering poisonous fog and lightning, completely enveloping the area.
"Ow..."
The Thunder Drum at the bottom of the pit shook its slightly dizzy head, and the silvery-white metallic luster on its body quickly faded, restoring its original dark gold and white body.
This powerful "heavy impact" missed its target and left it stuck in the crater, leaving it feeling frustrated and angry.
It growled and strained with all four limbs, trying to break free from the soft pit.
Meanwhile, on the other side of the battlefield, the plague had somehow retreated to a relatively safe distance.
He lowered his head and gently stomped his feet on the ground.
A chilling change occurred.
The once solid cement ground beneath his feet quickly turned dark and damp, developing an eerie, oily sheen of dark green and deep purple.
The soil softened and became muddy, bubbling and emitting a more pungent, fishy odor than the previous toxic fog.
In just two or three breaths, the area within several meters of him had already transformed into a swampy purple-green swamp that was constantly churning and bubbling with poison!
In the center of the swamp, a large, exceptionally viscous pool of dark purple mud slowly "floated" to the surface.
This puddle of mud has a blurry, humanoid outline, its surface constantly flowing and deforming. At the very top are two dull, lifeless white eyeballs and a huge mouth that stretches almost to the ears—it is the Poison-type Pokémon, Muk!
"Gulu..."
The stinky mud made a sticky swallowing sound, and its huge mouth suddenly opened to an exaggerated angle, like a bottomless mud pouch, swallowing the plague standing in front of it whole!
The plague offered no resistance, allowing its body to be completely enveloped and swallowed by the foul-smelling, sticky mud.
"Pfft."
Stinky Mud closed its huge mouth, and the plague's figure completely disappeared into its constantly wriggling, muddy body.
Immediately afterwards, a rich, earthy-yellow ground-based energy emanated from the surface of Mud's body, and its body rapidly sank, seeping into the poisonous swamp it had created as if melting.
The purplish-green swamp quickly "dried up" and solidified, returning to what appeared to be ordinary ground.
First, let Mud "eat" the plague, then dig a hole! A brilliant escape strategy!
The seventh god of death, Plague, along with his stinky mud, vanished into the ground right before everyone's eyes!
The air above the open space distorted slightly, like ripples on water, and Gou Zan Gou's iconic sturdy figure slowly materialized and emerged.
Its condition is clearly not good at the moment.
The negative effect of using the "brute force" skill was that it reduced the user's physical defense and speed.
It was also grazed by the aftershock of Tyranitar's "Max Magna" attack, causing its Special Defense to drop.
In order to withstand the Thunder Drum's 100,000 volts of protection, it took a hit head-on and was seriously injured.
In the final moments, he even expended a considerable amount of his life energy to create a "substitute" to save his life...
At this moment, Gouzan Dog, although still standing, was breathing much heavier, and many parts of its purple fur were charred and curled. The mysterious poison chain scarf around its neck had also dimmed considerably and was circulating more slowly.
In its scarlet eyes, weariness and ferocity intertwined, but more than anything, there was a wild, beast-like madness—a madness born from the loss of direct trainer command and the complete lack of restraint due to the trainer's concealment.
Its gaze swept coldly across the battlefield.
Finally, they locked onto Director Luo Hong, who was being subtly protected by the city's guardian dragon and Tyranitar, intently observing the battle!
The meaning in those eyes couldn't be clearer: we'll tear apart this seemingly weak human who is actually the core of the on-site command!
"Damn it," Luo Hong thought with a chill, "It's coming for me!"
As if confirming his premonition, Gouzan Dog's short but surprisingly strong hind legs suddenly pushed off the ground!
"Oh!"
A shockwave ripped through the ground, and its battered yet still terrifyingly powerful body transformed into a purple streak of light that tore through the air, heading straight for Luo Hong!
Its speed far exceeded any of its previous movements!
"Double-edged headbutt!" A loud shout rang out!
The first to react was the Warhammer Dragon!
Its small eyes burned with a fierce fighting spirit to protect its master, completely disregarding its own injuries!
"Roar!!!"
The earthy yellow rock energy surged out of its body like a volcanic eruption. It was not an outward attack, but rather it quickly condensed and shaped on its body surface, transforming into a set of thick, ancient, angular rock armor that covered all its vital points!
The armor's surface shimmered with an earthy sheen, making its already strong physique appear even more imposing.
The next moment, the Warhammer Dragon, clad in heavy rock armor, transformed itself into a meteor burning with earthy yellow light. It lowered its head, pointed its massive blue skull, resembling a heavy hammer, forward, and fiercely colliding with the oncoming purple light!
Rock-type physical ultimate move - Double-Edged Hammer! Abandoning defense, pursuing the ultimate destructive charge!
If this impact were to hit squarely, even a divine beast would not fare well!
However, faced with this desperate attack, a hint of mockery flashed in the scarlet eyes of the awesome dog amidst the purple light.
Just as the two were about to collide with each other like comets striking the moon—
The awesome dog, charging at high speed, actually did something unbelievable!
Its seemingly powerless body twisted in mid-air with extreme subtlety and precision, bursting a ball of highly compressed air, and then gently tapped it!
It was this extremely subtle point that caused its charging trajectory to deflect at an almost right angle, narrowly missing the Warhammer Dragon's rock hammer, which carried immense force!
Not only did it perfectly avoid the direct impact of the double-edged hammer, but it also miraculously shrugged off the dog's body.
He then unleashed a powerful whip kick, infused with fighting spirit, like a scorpion's tail, slamming it into the side of the Warhammer Dragon's unprotected neck!
"Clap!"
The sickening sounds of bones cracking and muscles tearing exploded simultaneously!
"Uh-oh—!"
The Warhammer Dragon let out a painful howl, its charging force completely deflected by this vicious kick, and its massive body instantly lost its balance.
Like a battering ram out of control, it tilted and crashed headlong into a nearby police station annex building with even greater force!
"Boom! Boom! Boom! Boom!"
The already severely damaged building could hardly withstand such an impact. The walls collapsed, the beams and columns broke, and the entire three-story building collapsed with a deafening roar and billowing dust!
In an instant, the Warhammer Dragon was completely buried under the ruins, leaving only a few fragments of rock armor shimmering dimly in the dust.
With one blow crippling the Warhammer Dragon, Gouzan Dog's charging momentum was almost unaffected. The purple light flashed again, and it was already less than ten meters away from Luo Hong!
"Wang!"
The chilling bark was so close that Luo Hong could even clearly see the increasingly wide, cruel, and mocking curve on the monstrous face of the dog.
The shadow of death has never loomed so vividly.
"Roar--!!!"
The city dragon that had been loyally guarding Luo Hong let out a deep, thunderous roar, like the sound of an ancient bell!
Its massive bone shield instantly thrust forward, attempting to construct a solid protective barrier in front of Luo Hong!
A pale green energy screen quickly appeared and unfolded...
However, the speed of the awesome dog is even faster!
Its whip-like leg struck the protective shield of the city dragon just as it was not yet fully formed and the light barrier was still thin. It was like a steel whip tearing through cloth.
"Pop—!!"
A crisp sound, like a soap bubble bursting.
The protective shield, hastily upgraded to its strongest defense, was actually shattered by Gouzan Gou's enraged attack! Green energy fragments scattered everywhere!
The whip kick, still in full force, broke through the remaining energy barrier of the light shield and landed solidly on the edge of the city-guarding dragon's huge shield, which was also the joint of its facial bones!
"Oh!"
The guardian dragon let out a painful groan as its massive shield was kicked to one side, causing its heavy, mountain-like body to stagger backward.
Its four legs dug deep furrows in the ground, eventually causing it to fall several meters to the side of Luo Hong, where it struggled to get up for a moment.
The last barrier has crumbled!
The dog's figure was completely and unobstructed in front of Luo Hong.
Its eyes flashed with ferocity, and its massive hand, capable of crushing steel, with its fingers slightly bent, shot straight for Luo Hong's throat with a shrill whistling sound that tore through the air!
If that claw had landed firmly, Luo Hong, with his ordinary physique, would have had no chance of survival!
The nearby Bangila roared furiously, trying to pounce on it, but it was already badly injured and was too slow to react in time!
Luo Hong's pupils contracted. He could feel the approaching claw-like wind stinging his skin, and the aura of death choked his breath.
At this critical moment, when life and death hung in the balance—
"Tsk-!"
Above Luo Hong's head, the sky, which had been torn apart by the thunder of the Thunder Drum and then repaired by the poisonous clouds, suddenly appeared as if it had been ripped open by an invisible giant hand!
A surge of dragon might, more ancient than the thunderous ferocity of the Thunder Drum and more vast than the venomous malevolence of the Gou Zan Dog, burst forth from the crack like a flood, engulfing the entire area!
From within the rift, a clear voice, sharp yet remarkably composed, pierced through the roar of energy and the clamor of death, suddenly resounding:
"Rippling water—"
"Dragon Wave!"
