High in the sky, Aerodactyl also moved away from the summit as volcanic ash spread.
Above them, the sun seemed to grow frenzied. Its rays suddenly erupted into a blinding golden glare, followed by a suffocating wave of heat and extreme temperatures that filled the world!
A trace of frustration flickered in Mew's large eyes as it lay in Yong's arms. The boy looked up at the sky and murmured,
"Desolate Land..."
Suddenly, a scorching heat pressed against his ribs. Yong frowned and reached for it, then his expression changed as he pulled the Red Orb from his pocket...
"Sure enough... it's changed..."
Inside the Orb, streams of red light rippled like water, and it now felt warm to the touch.
At some point, a strange symbol had appeared on its surface,
"Ω"
"Nature Power..."
Looking at the churning lava behind him, Yong carefully put away the Red Orb. It contained a portion of that creature's very essence...
"Hiss!!!"
Steam boiled up from the earth!
The fissure at the summit continued to widen, releasing another burst of sound like escaping gas!
Expansion from the heat increased the pressure, sending underground gases mixed with lava, smoke, and dust bursting out in wave after wave.
The environment around Mt. Chimney was being destroyed...
Within the fissure, red-black magma began surging and flowing like ocean waves.
Driven by the terrain, it kept spreading toward the Great Desert Area.
The fissure tore a vicious-looking rift across the earth. Red-gold light blazed within it, waves of heat shrouded it, and lava raged through it!
Faintly, a terrifying presence, like a volcanic eruption, merged with all of Mt. Chimney and slowly began to awaken.
Brilliant light, searing heat, desolation, violence, antiquity, madness, fury...
All these qualities mingled together!
"Damn... get us out of here, Aerodactyl!"
Yong
