With Brother Yi not by his side, Chen Mo once again took up his old role—serving as his own cameraman.
Through the camera clipped to his body, the livestream audience couldn't clearly see everything, but the increasingly thunderous sounds alone made it obvious—
Chen Mo was getting closer and closer to Hydreigon.
A tense atmosphere spread throughout the stream. Countless viewers were sweating over Chen Mo's risky move.
Chen Mo himself was far from calm.
Absol… where exactly are you trying to take me…?
Just as he was deep in thought, Pidgeotto—circling in the sky—let out a sharp warning cry.
Immediately after—
a roar completely different from Hydreigon's, yet equally oppressive, echoed from not far ahead.
Absol halted mid-sprint, lowering its body into a guarded stance as it stared toward the source of the sound.
The next second—
a powerful gust swept through the forest, trees swaying violently as a massive figure beat its purple-gray wings and shot upward through the canopy into the sky.
Chen Mo looked up—
and the moment he saw that imposing silhouette, his pupils shrank.
At the same time, the livestream chat exploded.
[HOLY SHIT! What is that?!]
[A dragon? But it kinda looks like a pterosaur from the dinosaur era?]
[Whatever it is, it's definitely a Pokémon!]
[Forget what it is—looks like it's locked onto Mo-baby and the others!]
Because of the close distance—
the enormous creature immediately noticed Pidgeotto flying at low altitude and Chen Mo riding on Absol below.
"GRAAAH!"
A deafening roar targeted Pidgeotto.
Clearly, compared to Absol and Chen Mo, this dragon-like being held far greater hostility toward another creature occupying the skies.
It opened its mouth, rows of sharp teeth gleaming as orange-red energy gathered within.
Hyper Beam!
Opening with an ultimate move right away? Not worried about the recharge drawback at all?!
Just as Chen Mo was about to command Pidgeotto to regroup and evade the Hyper Beam before preparing for an all-out fight—
the creature seemed to sense something.
It abruptly stopped charging and twisted midair. A dragon-shaped energy blast grazed past it, slamming into the ground near Chen Mo and carving a deep trench.
"GRAAAH!"
Ambushed, the pterosaur-like Pokémon grew even more enraged.
Instantly abandoning Pidgeotto as its target, it wheeled around and charged toward the source of the Dragon Pulse.
That direction—
was Hydreigon.
[Jesus, what Pokémon is that? It's insane! Not only did it not avoid Hydreigon, it's charging straight at it!]
[Hydreigon targeted it first. That beam was clearly aimed at it. Now it's locked in!]
[This new Pokémon feels super strong too. Mo-baby, is it another pseudo-legendary? Why haven't you introduced it before?]
Hydreigon's Dragon Pulse had unintentionally helped Chen Mo tremendously.
Looking up at the two Pokémon now clashing in the sky, Chen Mo fixed his gaze on the purple-gray figure and began speaking.
"This newly appeared Pokémon probably reminds everyone of a special lifeform that existed on our planet millions of years ago, right?"
"And you're not wrong. In the Pokémon world, there was also a very unique era in ancient times—the Age of Dinosaurs."
"During that period, many Pokémon resembling the dinosaurs that once roamed our planet lived and thrived."
"As for the pterosaur-like Pokémon you just saw—it is one of them."
"They are extremely powerful. Humans in the Pokémon world once believed that in ancient times, they were rulers of the skies."
"Its name is Aerodactyl."
"It's also worth mentioning that meteorite impact theories exist in the Pokémon world as well. That dinosaur era—composed of Pokémon—was said to have been wiped out by a massive meteorite. Aerodactyl was among the species that went extinct as a result."
"So honestly, even I don't understand why we're encountering an Aerodactyl here in Evergreen Forest."
His explanation stirred a massive reaction in the chat.
[Ancient sky tyrant vs. modern pseudo-legendary? This just got interesting.]
[Interesting my ass. When gods fight, mortals suffer. If Mo-baby gets caught in that crossfire, he's done.]
[So professional! I knew Mo-baby was officially certified for Pokémon education, but has official research really reached this level already?]
[Of course it has. The authorities definitely know more than we do.]
[I'm not doubting Mo-baby's explanations. I'm just wondering when the government will release a nationwide Pokémon guide. Not everyone watches this stream.]
[True. The Bureau's website hasn't updated in ages. Are they cooking something big?]
[Forget that—what about Mo-baby's safety right now?!]
Glancing at the scrolling comments, Chen Mo spoke calmly.
"It's actually safer now than before."
Aerodactyl's sudden appearance had drawn Hydreigon's full attention.
The two dragons were locked in fierce combat, tearing through the sky and the forest alike, too preoccupied to care about Chen Mo.
Compared to earlier—when he had to cautiously avoid Hydreigon's line of sight—now he only needed to avoid the shockwaves of their battle.
Relatively speaking, the danger level had dropped significantly.
Still, although Aerodactyl was powerful, this was no longer the ancient era. It was in its most basic form.
Chen Mo estimated that Aerodactyl could hold its own against Hydreigon for a while—but over time, it would likely lose.
And a wounded Hydreigon might become even more unhinged.
Time was short.
Chen Mo gently patted Absol beneath him.
Understanding his intent, Absol glanced once more at the two dragons wreaking havoc in the sky—then resumed sprinting toward the location where Aerodactyl had first appeared.
