Chapter 1307: A Warning

Chapter 1307: A Warning

Looking down into the volcano's entrance, Julian knew he was going to encounter something down there. All the signs till now have pointed towards future trouble that he is going to encounter.

The constant attacks from wild pokemons, the overabundance of their numbers. He could smell the trouble up ahead.

After Olivia and the geologist group entered the volcano, Julian followed closely behind while being very vigilant.

The geologist started to get to work as the younger members of the team started to collect some samples from the volcano's mouth while Julian and Olivia kept a close eye on them. They don't want anyone of them to just tumble down the volcano and fall into the boiling lava.

After collecting some samples, the group continued to make their way down deeper into the volcano, and the further they went, the hotter it started to get.

Julian, who is right behind the group, suddenly felt something and his suspicion increased.

The group stopped again to take some samples. Using this chance, Julian walked towards Olivia and asked her something very important.

Julian "Olivia, is there a totem den inside the volcano?"

Julian asked.

Olivia looked at Julian with confusion on her face. She wondered why Julian would think so.

Olivia "I don't know, no one has ever explored Wela volcano enough to know about each and every corner of it, as it is very dangerous down here. But there is one nearby, on the other side of the volcano. It's the trial ground trainers participate in to earn a z-crystal"

She answered.

Julian nodded and kept his thoughts to himself. Olivia was suspicious about this silence, but decided to keep it to herself as well.

Julian 'As I expected, there is a totem den down here that the locals have not found and I believe that those Cipher idiots might be behind what is going on right now.'

Julian thought, and continued following them. He just hopes that they don't encounter any Cipher members, as it could cause panic in the group.

Gengar ventured deeper into the volcano and soon heard low and heavy breathing close by. He could already sense the pokemon, so he decided to give it a visit.

Gengar traveled through the shadows and arrived right in front of a massive sleeping pokemon, this pokemon was laid flat on its stomach with its head resting over its arms.

It seems to be having a very pleasant sleep, and it would be foolish to disturb it.

This pokemon is about seven feet tall from head to legs and if its tail is taken into consideration, it is even longer. It has a massive head and a very muscular body that supports it. Its claws are massive, its fangs are long and sharp.

Just its presence would be intimidating too many pokemons.

But Gengar isn't bothered, he has dealt with pokemon who are more vicious than this.

Gengar then looked around but found nothing special about this den. The pokemon in front of him looks like a totem pokemon, but this is not a totem den at all.

Gengar then returns to Julian to inform him of what he found.

As Julian and the group are waiting, Gengar once again comes out of the shadow, scaring a few of the surrounding people. He giggles at seeing this, then looks at Julian and tells him what he found.

Hearing Gengar, Julian understood something. The roar from before must have been a warning call for any pokemons in the area from approaching its den as it was about to rest.

But that is not his main concern. He learned from Gengar that the pokemon inside the den might be a totem pokemon, but the den it is resting in is not a totem den.

Julian then wondered if this totem pokemon escaped from Team Cipher after fighting back but he quickly dismissed of the idea as totem pokemons never abandon their den unless it is about to get killed and Julian knows that Cipher is not trying to kill these pokemons.

Julian 'Maybe I am looking too much into this. Maybe Cipher has nothing to do with it.'

Julian questioned himself, wondering if Cipher is really involved in this.
