Adventurer of the Elf World

The ones he could guess were the Zubat family, the Sandshrew family, and perhaps the Geodude family.

As for Onix, it was too rare.

The caves might not only have Zubat-like Pokémon. There was another type that also liked dark places and was even rarer.

That was the Ghost-type Pokémon.

Thinking of this, Xiu was not surprised but happy. Ghost-type Pokémon were very good, just in line with his imagination. They were quite powerful, and they were a good choice for sneak attacks or night watch, after all, they didn't sleep.

"Kathy! Be careful, let's go in a little further and take a look." Xiu guessed the Pokémon that would appear, while continuing to go deeper with Cassie.

There were two types of Ghost-type Pokémon that could appear in the Kanto Mine. In Xiu's opinion, there were two better ones, either the Gastly family or the Incubus family.

Others either rarely appeared in the Kanto region or didn't quite meet Xiu's expectations.

As for what was here, we had to see it.

From Cassie's perspective, Xiu could feel the gravel on the ground, the fallen small mine cart, and some scattered tools.

The lamp hanging above his head had long gone dark. It was unknown whether it was the wind or some other reason, but the lamp would swing from time to time, which seemed a little strange.

As if sensing Xiu's feelings, Casey's vision suddenly expanded, and he quickly explored deeper into the cave. Xiu didn't have Casey's brain, and such a sudden change made him stay where he was.

It took Xiu a while to adapt to this feeling, as if he had clairvoyance, and was not limited by vision at all. Only super powers can see hundreds of meters in the dark.

Xiu quickly digested what Casey had passed on, but he didn't find a single elf.

This abnormal strangeness made him a little curious, and these hundreds of meters didn't seem to be the limit of the mine. Thinking of his previous experience, Xiu was even more curious about the situation inside.

He paused for a moment to think, and then continued to walk along the passage.

There was no sound around, only the sound of Xiu's movements. In this case, even the sound of breathing seemed to be amplified several times, and Xiu could clearly hear the sound of his own heartbeat.

And as he went deeper, the temperature inside gradually dropped, and a strange smell filled the air.

At first, Xiu was afraid that it was some poisonous gas, so he quickly took out the air filter mask and put it on, but in the end he didn't find any abnormality in himself, so he let it go.

Of course, it is impossible to walk all the way to the end of the mine. There are many bends and various paths that lead to unknown places. There is also the entrance to the next level.

As soon as Xiu came in, he faced two problems. Judging from the remaining items, the first level was actually just an entrance, and the second level was a place for workers to rest temporarily, and the second level was the real mine pit, but the problem was that the mine pit below was too big, and he couldn't search it all.

In addition, once he went down, if the upper part collapsed, he would be dead, and Casey couldn't save him.

On one side was the unknown environment, and on the other side was his own safety. Xiu stood at the entrance of the second floor and pondered for a moment.

"Let's go." Xiu still wanted to save his life.

When he went in, Xiu walked slowly step by step, fearing that there would be any unexpected attacks, but when he went out, he didn't have so many rules, and his pace also accelerated a lot. It took less than ten minutes to run out of the first level that originally took more than an hour to explore.

However, the moment Xiu left the mine, he turned around and looked at the darkness behind him. For some reason, a chill rushed straight to his brain, and goose bumps appeared on his body.

Just now, he felt that something seemed to be looking at him, and the eyes were full of malice.

Looking at Casey again, he just shook his head.

Was it only directed at him? Or was he overthinking?

Standing in the sun again, the warmth quickly drove away the slight chill, and Xiu also recovered.

He knew that there were no ghosts in this world, only ghost-type elves. The unknown was scary. As long as he knew the other party's true face, he would not feel anything.

But now it seems that it doesn't welcome him~

I don't have the strength now. When I have the ability to move mountains and unload hills, I will come here to turn it over. See if you can scare me.

Xiu thought with a little malice, but his footsteps had already walked a distance.

…………

After leaving the strange mine, Xiu ran in the wild for a few days before arriving at his temporary destination, Nibi City, or Deep Gray City.

Behind Nibe City is a large stretch of mountains, and it is at the foot of the mountains. The mountains on both sides seem to embrace it, and there is a river flowing next to it. It is said to be surrounded by mountains and rivers.

However, this also limits the development of Nibe City. Anyway, from a distance, it can be seen that the scale is smaller than that of Viridian City, but the proportion of high-rise buildings is higher.

There are more people entering the main road, and vehicles pass by from time to time.

Xiu saw that most of them were walking in groups, and there were one or two who were alone and didn't look like someone who was easy to mess with.

They are trainers. Most of them challenge everywhere to collect badges. Some people take cars or other means of transportation directly, while others walk, either for exercise or for experience.

Anyway, there are both types of people.

Xiu is also not easy to mess with now. Others have to retreat when they see him.

It's not because of anything, but because he exudes a smell all over his body. Although it's not strong, it's enough to make them retreat.

You know, Xiu had cleaned up in advance, but there was no condition for taking a shower.

There was no choice but to go to the Pokémon Center in this state.

Nibi City represents hard rock and is known as the "city at the foot of the rock mountain."

There is also a saying that the locals often say, "Dark gray is the gray-black color that is as solid as a rock."

It is not an exaggeration to say that this is their belief.

According to his investigation, Nibi City was a place that existed before the establishment of the alliance. It mainly mined rocks and some minerals.

Because there are continuous mountains behind, it is quite troublesome for people above to settle down or transport materials. Those people gradually gathered at the foot of the mountain, and then formed towns, and then slowly developed into cities.

Once you go behind Nibi City, it means that you have left the first echelon of humans, or there will be some towns, but the Kanto Alliance's management ability is also weaker.

It can't even manage it, which is equivalent to local autonomy.

The significance of Nibi City is to guard here, one is to guard against possible attacks from the outside world, and the other is to provide protection for people nearby.

This strategic position is also the reason why the city of Nibi was able to develop rapidly after the establishment of the alliance.
